Outside Chang'an City, a carriage came slowly, the groom driving was not in a hurry, and the people in the car were also not in a hurry, looking at the book in their hands and reading silently.

Then dozens of knights rushed out of the city, straight to the carriage, these people were wearing good armor, at a glance it was the forbidden army of the Han Emperor, after running to the carriage, they dismounted, and the person headed said loudly: "Son, Weichen is ordered by the queen mother to take you into the palace." ”

Naturally, Luo Xin was in the car, he raised the curtain slightly, looked at Chang'an City in front of him, and said with some emotion: "Chang'an, Chang'an, long time no see." ”

Weiyang Palace.

Lu Pheasant looked at Luo Xin in front of him, he was still the same as before, with light in his eyes and a sassy temperament.

Mo Shangren is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world, just as he said.

"Childe, long time no see."

Lu Pheasant looked at Luo Xin a little nervously, just like when she was a girl, she couldn't help but touch the corners of her eyes, thinking that the one or two wrinkles should be covered, "You are really still beautiful, the years don't seem to have left any traces on your body, but the concubine is already old." ”

This is Xi Shi in the eyes of a lover, and Luo Xin is not a miraculous immortal like Xi Shi and Ji Lingjun, how can there be no change at all?

Although the charm has not decreased, but has become higher, the change is still obvious.

And Lu Pheasant is not old, she has only been married to Liu Bang for more than ten years, how can a woman who is just in her thirties be old?

"Queen Mother."

Luo Xin was about to speak, but was directly interrupted by Lu Pheasant, "Childe, please call the concubine, why are you so angry?" ”

Luo Xin opened his mouth, looked up at the dome of the main hall, and then looked straight at Lu Pheasant, and said leisurely: "Ejiao, after so many years, you are still like this, and you have not changed." ”

Lu Pheasant was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The concubine's body has changed a lot, but it naturally hasn't changed for you.

Now that you're back, the concubine will give you all the money you deserve. ”

Luo Xin took a sip of the wine on the table and smiled, "Fame and fortune are all dust." ”

Lu Pheasant walked from the main seat, the waiting maids retreated one after another, she walked to Luo Xin and sat down, there was a fist distance between the two, this was a tacit understanding between the two.

If you don't say it, I won't say it, gentleman's friend.

Lu Pheasant stretched out his hand to take the wine vessel and poured wine for Luo Xin, and said softly: "Childe, please also drink." ”

Luo Xin took it, only to feel the aroma, he couldn't help but tighten his heart, and the palm holding the wine glass was slightly forced, and he heard Lu Pheasant whisper softly: "Childe, you are a heavenly figure, but because of your concubine, you want to step into this turbid place."

Back then, you taught the concubine and Le'er, sent the concubine to the Han army, and saved the concubine's life among the ten thousand troops.

You are the most trusted person of the concubine, and you have great kindness to the concubine, and the concubine really doesn't know how to repay you, so she can only give you what everyone in the world wants. ”

This may be the most sincere and sincere words of Lu Pheasant in this life, she has not shied away from loving Luo Xin now, if Luo Xin was not the son of the Luo family, she would have recommended herself a pillow long ago.

Of course, it's good to be affectionate now, and it's good to stop at courtesy, and Lu Pheasant doesn't force it.

Luo Xin drank all the wine in his hand, although his return to Chang'an City helped Lu Pheasant's thoughts, but at the same time, he had been thinking about it for a long time.

The status of the eldest brother is too special and too high, and it is impossible to assist the emperor.

The second brother is said to have received a mission from King Su to explore an unknown place called the Western Regions.

The third brother is Liu Bang's confidant, and as Liu Bang's minister, he went to South Korea as a minister, and it is impossible to come back in a short time.

For a while, the huge political center turned out to be only Han Xin, Luo's son-in-law, although this was not a big deal, but Luo Xin was unwilling.

He said solemnly: "Ejiao, what are you going to do, what do you want me to do?" ”

Lu Pheasant said: "I want to be regent, but I don't know what the ministers think, how much power the queen and queen mother should have, no one knows, I want to test it." ”

Luo Xin directly waved his hand and said: "There is no need to be tempted, yin and yang are one, the emperor and queen are the same, balance is the most important thing in this world."

This kind of thing without standards is to cut through the mess quickly, just set the rules yourself, and you must not put it in the outer court to discuss.

The power of the empress should be compared to that of the emperor, and the power of the empress dowager should be beyond that of the emperor, at least when the emperor was not in power.

You can directly use tradition as an excuse to declare you regent as the queen mother, and the ministers will be suspicious, but there will not be many people who oppose it, and if anyone opposes, my sword will pierce his throat.

The most important thing to do this is military power, although Lu Hou is not in the army, but his influence is still very great, Han Zimu is on our side, and the obstacle to your regency is not big. ”

In the current Han Dynasty, there is a very outrageous thing, that is, the strength of the Luolu Alliance is comparable to the Jijiang Alliance in the early Zhou Dynasty.

The core of this group is Liu Ying's identity, through Liu Ying's identity as the emperor, Lu Pheasant can legally seize the supreme ruling power, and then Han Xin and Lu Ze, the two military bosses, represent the Luolu family respectively, which is enough to suppress those heroes.

Although Luo Yi is the prime minister in South Korea, he can return to Chang'an to re-serve as a senior official of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries with an order, as Liu Bang's confidant, he has served as the prime minister in Chang'an for many years, and his strength and prestige are not to be underestimated.

Among these people, although Han Xin and Luo Yi are not loyal to Lu Pheasant, as long as Lu Pheasant does not do anything excessive, they will stand on Lu Pheasant's side in the political struggle.

Han Xin and Luo Yi's attitude is what she is most worried about, although the Millennium Blood Alliance is there, but Lu Pheasant doesn't know where Luo Yi's bottom line is, as Liu Bang's confidant and important minister, and also accepted Liu Ruyi's official position as the prime minister, will he really sit back and watch Lu Pheasant's regency and seize the power that belongs to Liu Ying?

Now hearing Luo Xin's analysis, Lu Pheasant finally relaxed and said: "Childe, the concubine is ready to hand over the palace guards to you first, you hold the sword, I can rest assured."

Then find time to make you a marquis with the credit you made for saving the emperor back then.

With the throne, you will be able to hold the high position of the three dukes. ”

The two chatted for a while, and Liu Le learned the news that Luo Xin had come to the palace, and hurriedly came to Weiyang Palace.

Pushing open the door, he saw that it was really Luo Xin, so he hurriedly walked in, first saluted Lu Pheasant, and then knelt beside Luo Xin, like a cheerful lark, and chirped: "Brother, where have you been all these years, why don't you come to Chang'an to see Ah Le?"

Ah Le really misses you. ”

Luo Xin looked at Liu Le, who had grown up after not seeing him for many years, and was a little nostalgic for the quiet time spent in that small courtyard, and he taught Lu Pheasant and Liu Le.

"Ah Le, I will stay in Chang'an City for a long time as a brother in the future."

Liu Le was rejoicing again, and Lu Pheasant looked at this scene with obscurity in his eyes.

Walking out of the gate of the palace, Luo Xin turned to look at the majestic palace, which is the political center of the world, and suddenly a rare wave of pride and ambition suddenly welled up in his heart.

Maybe I can accomplish the deeds of the second prince of Wenxuan and add another stroke to the glorious history of the family?

……

Huaiyin Marquis Mansion.

Luo Cai naturally has her own Anyang Marquis Mansion in Chang'an City, but there is no reason for the husband and wife to live separately in this world, so she lives in the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion.

"Fourth brother is well."

Luo Xin has traveled all over the world over the years, and there is no big festival in Zhaocheng that requires all the descendants to arrive, the brother and sister have not seen each other for a long time, and then suddenly saw that the little sister in his impression has become a mother and has matured a lot, but the trace of agility between the eyebrows and eyes is still the same as in the past, and he is very happy when he looks at his life over the years.

Han Xin also said respectfully: "The fourth brother is fine. ”

Over the years, he has discovered more and more how lucky he is to be able to marry Luo Cai, and Luo's resources are too rich.

Don't say that he is a person with outstanding talents, even if he is a mediocre person, as long as Luo's is willing, he can make him famous in history as a good book.

Luo Cai saw that Luo Xin was still alone, and asked with a trace of sadness between his eyebrows: "Fourth brother, have you gone to the palace to see the queen mother?" ”

Luo Xin couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ah Cai, what kind of expression do you have?"

It is true that she has just come out of the palace, and the Queen Mother is still the same as in the past, and she still trusts her brother very much. ”

"The emperor is young, this world needs people to assist the government, and the queen mother probably wants to be regent, right?

The Lu family is already so prominent, and it is not like our Luo family generations of meritocracy, it is not a good thing to stand too high. ”

Luo Cai's insight into people's hearts is still very clear, Luo Xin nodded, and said bluntly: "Yes, but the Queen Mother wants to do something."

The only thing she was worried about was the reaction of the ministers, and she didn't want to start a fight because of this, so I comforted her in the palace. ”

Luo Cai was silent for a moment when he heard this, and did not express his opinion again, but said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you have been alone for so many years, and you don't want to marry a wife.

Over the years, my sister has met a lot of talented and good-looking women. ”

Luo Xin knew that Luo Cai agreed to let Lu Pheasant be regent, and said with a smile: "You girl, you actually made fun of your brother." ”

The news that Luo Xin had returned to Chang'an spread quickly, and then it caused a lot of discussion in private, because Luo Xin was an extremely rare hero who was not from the meritorious group.

At present, the ministers who hold almost all the power of the Han Dynasty, except for Yuan Cong heroes like the Fengpei Group, even the remnants of the Six Kingdoms like Zhang Liang, or foreign relatives like Lu Ze, all follow Liu Bang to fight the world together.

And Luo Xin's greatest achievement is to save the lives of the queen mother, the emperor, and the eldest princess, of course, this credit is great, but it gives people a feeling that it is incompatible with the current politics.

But everyone knows that this Luo's son is about to be in a high position, because the Queen Mother trusts Luo Xin, and there is even no shortage of people secretly speculating about the relationship between the two.

There are more than 100 heroes, with different personalities and IQs, and you can't expect all of them to have reason.

Of course, this kind of speculation is only said in private, after all, Luo Xin has not completely touched their interests, and he is not a political enemy.
