Thirty-Nine: Yingbu

In the spring of March, Tao He, the servant of the king of Liang, went into the Han Dynasty, sued the king of Liang Peng Yue for rebellion, the emperor Liu Bang was furious, and sent the envoy He Rao to Liang to arrest Peng Yue, imprisoned him in Luoyang City, and soon after pardoned as a concubine, migrated to Shu. Peng Yue traveled west to Zheng, and when he met Empress Lu from Chang'an, he wanted to go to Luoyang, wept and pleaded, confessed his innocence, and begged His Majesty and the Empress to look at the past and let him return to his former residence Changyi. Empress Lu promised with a smile and came to Luoyang with him. Privately said to Liu Bangjin: "Peng Wang Zhuangshi, the Shu of this migration, this self-legacy, it is better to punish him." Concubines come with you. ”

Liu Bang thought so, so Peng Yue "rebelled" again and was razed by the three clans.

Just as several princes are getting older, they should be feuded. Liu Bang set up the prince Liu Hui as the king of Liang, and the prince Liu You as the king of Huaiyang. Badong County was incorporated into the Liang State; Yingchuan County was defeated and incorporated into Huaiyang State.

warned the princes and kings with the will of the king of Liang, and gave birth to Peng Yue, the king of Liang, and gave the princes his flesh. When the envoy went to Lu'an, the capital of Huainan, the king of Huainan was hunting, and when he heard this, he felt sad that the rabbit died and the fox died, and he burst into tears, saying left and right, "The Han family can't tolerate loneliness!" ”

In the autumn, Huainan Zhongfu Ben He fled to Chang'an and sued Huainan Wang Huang Bu for rebellion. The emperor sent an envoy Xia Jingchang to Huainan to interrogate, and the Huainan king of the Tubu clan exterminated the He clan and sent troops to rebel. When the anti-book arrived in Chang'an, Liu Bang was greatly annoyed, and immediately ordered to send 30,000 chariots to Shangjun, Beidi, and Longxi, and 30,000 soldiers and lieutenants.

This year, Liu Bang is very old, the body is a little stiff and uncomfortable in spring, although Chang'an in summer is very hot, but he is infected with the wind cold, and now he is taking decoction every day, it is not suitable to personally lead the army to fight, so he pardoned Ben He, ordered the crown prince Liu Ying to lead the army, with Ben He as the general, crusade against Di Bu.

Lu Yuan heard the news, worried that his younger brother was too young, he had never led the army to fight, and the battlefield sword had no eyes, if there were three games and two shorts, how could it be good, and he didn't sleep anymore, so he took advantage of the name of Qixi on the second day to enter the palace to ask Empress Lu for advice. Just as Lu Yi came out of the Jiaofang Palace, he folded his sleeves and bowed, "My aunt came just in time, and the queen has been waiting for my aunt and Sister Ah Yan for a long time!" ”

Lu Yuan sneered, stroked Lu Yi's cyan headband, and praised, "Wu Niang has grown up and become more and more beautiful!" ”

She stood under the sandalwood bead curtain, and heard Aunt Su Mo in the hall waiting for Empress Lu to sit down on the couch, and muttered, "...... Wu Niang acted cleanly and decisively, but she had a bit of the queen's demeanor back then. ”

"Yes," Empress Lu sighed, her voice faint, "If Yi Niang is a man, she can hold up the Lu family." I don't have to worry about the Lu family! ”

Lu Yuan's eyes blinked for a long time, and after a pause, Fang motioned to the people of the small palace to hold up the curtain, led Zhang Yan into the hall and said with a smile, "Queen Mother, the weather is so good today, why don't we go out for a walk?" ”

For a while, Empress Lu and Su Mo both laughed, "You monkey," Empress Lu smiled, "Okay," he took Lu Yuan's hand and said, "It's up to you, let's go out for a walk." ”

On this day, the sky was really high, and Queen Lu ordered someone to set up a couch on the high platform, sit on the platform and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the three mountains and two pools in the Changle Palace, and instructed Xuanye to say, "Go and call the prince and the princess together." ”

Zhang Yan tasted a mouthful of melon and fruit, and was a little bored in her heart, raised her head, and saw the crown prince's honor guard coming out of the East Palace from a distance, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she smiled, "Uncle is here!" ”

After a while, Liu Ying stepped onto the stage and said with a smile, "The queen mother and sister are so interested." ”

Empress Lu looked at Liu Ying alone, and the crown princess Dong Hu did not appear together, and the smile on her face froze, and she quickly recovered.

"What about the crown princess?" Princess Lu Yuan asked strangely.

Liu Ying said with a smile, "Hu'er has been in poor health recently, I persuaded her to stay in the East Palace to rest, she can't come, so I will punish the queen mother three cups on her behalf, right?" He took the wrong gold and bronze foot pottery presented by the palace people on the side, drank three lamps in a row, put the wrong gold pottery on the tray, and lifted his clothes and sat down.

"Look at what you said." Lu Pheasant wiped the wine splashed on his cheek with his sleeve, and said with a smile, "It seems that the queen mother wants to trouble your daughter-in-law." I'm going to go out to war, but I can't be so childish anymore. ”

"Brother," Lu Yuan asked, "what do you think about going to Huainan?" ”

Liu Ying was stunned, and laughed clearly, "Since my father's will has come down, I will actively prepare for the war, and I will never lose my father's face." ”

"Queen Mother," the maid of the Jiaofang Palace stepped forward and said, "Zhou Luhou asked to see him in the audience. ”

Lu Tai, who was widely dressed and broad-banded, hurried to the east balcony and knelt in front of Queen Lu and begged, "The prince can't fight against Dubu!" ”

Lu Hou's sleeve shook slightly, and he said solemnly, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Since my cousin picked up the Shangshan Sihao back, didn't he let them live in the minister's mansion? When the ministers heard about this, they hurriedly went to the guest garden to inquire about Shangshan Sihao, and they analyzed the current situation, saying that the prince is now in the position of the prince, and this time he led the army to fight, if he wins, there will be no reward; But if it is defeated, the momentum of the DPRK and China will inevitably be greatly lost, and it is really not worth it! ”

"This ......" When Empress Lu heard Lu Tai say this, she couldn't help but hesitate, although she was decisive, she was very serious about Liu Ying, and when she encountered something about Liu Ying, she couldn't help but think twice.

"But Your Majesty has already made a will......"

"Ouch, my queen's aunt," Lu Tai stumbled and said, "Your Majesty has always had a small abacus of abolishing the long and standing young, where did you have any good intentions for letting the prince run the army this time?" Xu is to beat the prince to eat the rod of defeat, and take advantage of the situation to mention the abolition of the prince in the court, and everything will be logical. Why should we let the prince take this risk? ”

Zhang Yan pursed her lips, quite disapproving. The first battle of Huainan was not without benefits for Liu Ying, the Han Dynasty opened the country with military merits, Liu Ying, the crown prince, was known as a benevolent and weak person, among the founding heroes of the Han Dynasty, although there was a righteous name, but there was no authority, if the military merits of this war could be recognized by the ministers, the benefits were definitely not small. Shangshan Sihao is more than heavy, and not enterprising enough, so the suggestion is nothing more than the fear that Liu Ying will lose the battle, and he does not dare to let Liu Ying take risks!

It's just that she also knows that she is just a child in the eyes of everyone, and she can gag and interject in other things, and no one will care about her opinions when she encounters such a big thing.

Besides, she sees that others are more than serious and not enterprising, maybe people still think she is bragging.

What Empress Lu was most concerned about was Liu Ying's safety, and when she heard the words, she got up, "It's this reason!" ”

"Mother, what should I do then?" Lu Yuan also became anxious, "Why don't we go and tell my father to let my brother not fight this battle?" ”

"Ying'er, what do you think?" Lu Pheasant turned his head and asked his son.

Liu Ying's right hand was clenched into a fist in the middle of his sleeve, and he said with a smile, "I have a lot of soldiers in the Han Dynasty, and I don't have toβ€”"

"Oh, my prince," Lu Tai hurriedly persuaded, "that Tu Bushi is very human, brave and good at fighting, and he has done more in the previous Chu and Han disputes, cousin, you have not been crowned in the year, and you have never been in a war, if you want to face him, there is really no chance of winning!" ”

The more Empress Lu thought about it, the more he saluted, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you don't have to say it." The queen mother had lost her mind before, and you really couldn't fight this battle. I immediately went to the front hall to intercede with Your Majesty, and spared you from this military incident. ”

Liu Ying hesitated for a moment, looked at her mother's anxious gaze, and finally sighed in her heart, and arched her hand, "No!" ”

"That's good." Lu Yuan let go of his worries and said with a smile, "I don't have to worry about my brother anymore!" ”

Empress Lu went to the Great Xia Palace to meet Liu Bang, and Chen said that the prince was young and should not go to the battle of Tubu. Or ask Liu Bangmian to personally lead the army to crusade against Huang Bu, and when Huang Bu saw His Majesty's posture, he naturally looked at the wind and bowed down and did not dare to say anything about rebellion.

Liu Bang was so angry that he had to push back even a battle, how could he take over this Han dynasty in the future? But the ox can't force his head without drinking water, and he can only pick up the sick body, and he is ready to lead the army to quell the rebellion in person.

Although the Huainan rebels are far away, the hearts of the Han people have just recovered from the war between Chu and Han, and they are extremely war-weary, and they can occasionally feel a sticky atmosphere when they walk in Chang'an City.

"Xiao Langjun," Tu Yu followed behind Zhang Yan in the costume of a scholar, and asked, "Do you see the war of King Huainan going down?" ”

"Naturally, it will go down."

Zhang Yan walked absentmindedly in the East Market, "The time to compete in the world has long passed." Heroes have become heroes in troubled times, heroes have come out, and other people can do whatever they have to do, and blind participation will not end well. The tip of his nose suddenly smelled a faint fragrance of bamboo, and when he turned around, he met a pair of inquiring eyes.

She was stunned for a moment and smiled, "It's you." ”

The person who came smiled slightly, and arched his hand at Zhang Yan, "I didn't expect to meet Zhang Gongzi in such a marketplace." ”

Zhang Yan looked at him, thinking about the conversation in the Mansion of the Marquis of Minghen Pavilion that day, perhaps, she could make a deal with him. She suddenly asked abruptly, "Do you want to get ahead?" ”

"Okay." The visitor hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

With a blank face, Tu Yu looked at his own lady, and then looked at the arrogant eyes of the person who came, and blinked in confusion.
