Chapter 31: The princes of the world come to Beijing

Changle Palace.

Countless palace eunuchs hurriedly went in and out of the palace, all of them were sweating profusely, obviously in a hurry, the air pressure in the palace was also very low, so busy but almost couldn't hear very loud footsteps, and even the sound of breathing couldn't be heard clearly, and the air seemed to be stagnant.

The reason why this is the case is because Zhang Yan, the queen of the Han Empire, gave birth today, and the best stable woman in the entire Chang'an City is here, and there are also medical heirs who are also waiting in the palace.

There are many medical heirs in Zhaocheng.

Although the atmosphere of this era is very open, after all, there is a difference between men and women.

Therefore, from the time of Bang Zhou, Luo's trained a group of female doctors who specialized in treating women.

Luo's treats everything and everything, only to see if it is useful, so there is no discrimination against witch doctors and musicians, on the contrary, they attach great importance to it, and there are many Luo's women in the clan who learn medical skills.

Liu Ying knelt in the outer hall, her face was a little pale, she coughed slightly, her throat was a little dry, and she couldn't speak.

"Prime Minister, Queen She ......"

Luo Xin said calmly: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, the queen Jiren has her own heavenly appearance, you are the son of heaven, you have always been kind and loving, will God not bless you?" ”

"Wow!"

With a loud cry sounded, the hall that was extremely depressed just now was like a drop of oil falling into the water, boiling instantly, Liu Ying jumped up directly, and Gong E ran out of the hall with a smile on her face, and said happily: "Your Majesty, God bless, mother and son are safe." ”

Son!

Luo Xin squinted slightly, the eldest son of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, if nothing else, he would be the crown prince, Liu Ying's face was full of smiles, and he said loudly: "Okay, everyone in the palace will be rewarded with 100 gold, congratulations for my prince." ”

Lu Pheasant's voice came from outside the hall, and he said with a smile: "I will give another hundred gold, and I will never come out of the Yang Palace, for my eldest grandson." ”

Everyone saluted, Luo Xin narrowed his eyes slightly, the emperor has an eldest son, it is time for the kings to come to Chang'an, and it is time to report what achievements have been made over the years.

The emperor got the eldest son, and under the royal family's coin scattering behavior, the entire Chang'an City instantly fell into a joyful atmosphere.

And although Lu Pheasant is regent, Liu Ying still has power, he has done a lot of things over the years, and his prestige in the hearts of the people of Chang'an is not low, and most people are really happy for him when he has the eldest son.

An edict spread from Chang'an City to all directions, to the kingdoms and princes.

"Acting for the king's affairs and the regent of the empress dowager:

King Su said that the Son of Heaven lives in the middle of the world, and the vassals are in the four poles of the world to defend the Son of Heaven, which remains unchanged from generation to generation, and it is not easy for the world, so that the destiny of Bang Zhou and the wealth of the princes can continue forever.

Later, as expected, when the princes no longer defended the Son of Heaven, Bang Zhou's mandate of heaven ended, and the wealth of the princes was gone.

Isn't that the most alarming thing to do?

Emperor Gao divided the princes and the Marquis of Che because he saw that the Zhou Dynasty had a thousand-year mandate of heaven, while the counties of the Qin Dynasty only had a mandate of heaven for more than ten years.

Until now, twenty years later, the destiny of the Han Dynasty has become more and more stable, and the world has gradually recovered from fatigue, which is all achieved by the concerted efforts of all the ministers and ministers.

But now I am beginning to worry, people always say that it is easy to share hardships, but it is difficult to share wealth.

You are all the brothers and courtiers of Emperor Gao, and Emperor Gao also gave you fiefs and titles, so you are naturally loyal to Emperor Gao, and loyal to the Emperor because of Emperor Gao's grace.

But how similar it is to Bang Zhoushi, the first generation is always so close, but the later it is, the stranger it becomes, I get older, I don't know when I will come to Biluo Huangquan.

At that time, the emperor still needed your assistance, but how could he trust if he was not familiar with it?

I'm worried about that.

The emperor gave birth to the eldest son, which is a major event for the Liu clan, and I think that all the strong vassals of the Liu clan should come to Chang'an to congratulate.

As for the marquis of the world, the monarch gave birth to his eldest son, and I thought that all the kings should come to congratulate him, just like the princes worship the Son of Heaven.

Of course, if the country is too busy, then there is no need to use it, I am a reasonable person.

If you are willing to come to Chang'an to pay tribute, you don't need to prepare too elaborate tributes.

What I and the Emperor wanted to hear most was how many people had been restored, how much arable land had been cultivated, how much food could be produced, and how much taxes could be collected.

Aren't these money, food, and cloths that can make the people of the world rich in food and clothing better than the treasures? ”

……

This edict provoked a great reaction, this is the first time that the imperial court from the official level, asking all the princes in the world to come to Chang'an, although the edict said that it is okay not to come, but if anyone really believes it, it will really die.

The princes and kings were all hesitant to leave their own territory, especially in the face of Lu Pheasant, the regent empress dowager, and to some extent, they were opposed to each other.

But in the end, they all set off for Chang'an, and the whole world was instantly busy, and the huge kingdom envoys were extremely rich, and the people of Chang'an City who were shocked thought that they were the buns.

Among them, especially the King of Chu and the King of Wu are the richest, and then the King of Yue and the King of Huainan, all of which were the old lands of the Chu State in those years, and the damage suffered in the war of the world was relatively small, only the King of Changsha was slightly worse.

The acting king, the king of Yan, and the king of Liaodong are relatively shabby, but the soldiers are very majestic, and they are all border troops who fight all year round in the north, with high heads and horses, and they are majestic.

The most powerful is naturally the King of Zhao, among the kings of Shandong, the King of Zhao is the most powerful, and can control the military power of the king of Dai, the king of Yan, and the king of Liaodong.

In this position, he must be the emperor's confidant, which is why Luo Yi did not let Liu Bang canonize Liu Ruyi, if he really wanted to do that, Luo would not protect Liu Ruyi.

Among them, there is a very embarrassing king, that is the king of Jiaodong, in Liu Bang's planning, he should have been the king of Qi.

But the descendant of the genuine King of Qi is the Lu family, after Lu Cheng stepped down from the throne of Qi, he is still the Duke of Qi, and it is impossible for a big Han to have two titles of Qi, so he can only rule Qi in the name of King Jiaodong.

Moreover, Linzi, the most prosperous place in Qidi, was not in his hands, and the sons of Lu Cheng also occupied a large area of fertile land.

In addition to the princes and kings, those Che marquis should not be underestimated.

Although most of the founding heroes are in Chang'an City, there are still many local marquis.

It's not just Liu Bang who is divided, since Lu Pheasant came to the throne, such as Luo Xin was awarded the title of Dong'ahou, and other clansmen of the Lu family are old.

Most of the most prominent Qi Di Che Marquis are the sons of Lu Cheng, and the Lu clan, the family came to Chang'an.

It feels no worse than the previous Liu Sect King, which fully demonstrates the current status of the Lu family in the Han Dynasty.

This caused quite a stir in Chang'an City, and many people asked: "Which nobles are these, they are really noble, far better than the previous Chehou." ”

A knowledgeable person said: "Of course noble, this is the same clan of the Queen Mother Regent."

The first Duke of Qi was a prince with a different surname, and now although he has no throne, he has one of the only two dukes of the Han Dynasty, and more than a dozen sons, all of whom are marquis, and the power is unimaginable. ”

Most of these children came to Chang'an for the first time, and there were countless curiosities about the magnificent Chang'an.

The first thing Lu Cheng did after coming to Chang'an was to take his sons to see Luo Xin and Lu Pheasant, and he was also a little confused about Lu Pheasant's sudden summoning of the princes of the world.

Most of the kings of the sect are basically in contact with each other after arriving in Chang'an, although these people are close relatives, but they really haven't seen each other for many years, and after talking about it, they actually feel that the reason Lu Pheasant is looking for is really reasonable.

The kings of the Liu clan asked the palace to meet Liu Ying, the great sect master of the Liu clan, which was the reason why Lu Pheasant summoned everyone to come, and it was naturally impossible to stop it.

In Changle Palace, Liu Ying looked at these somewhat strange uncles and brothers, and really didn't know what to say, but the princes and kings of the Liu family seemed very close.

They offered the rare and exotic objects they brought from the feudal kingdom to Liu Ying, and then said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the ministers will be loyal to you, and your descendants will sit in the position of the emperor of the Han Dynasty forever, even if the sun and the moon collapse, they cannot change." ”

The indisputable legitimacy brought about by the succession of the eldest son is by no means comparable to that of the vassal king Xiaozong's succession.

At least Liu Bang's divided kings are indeed one of the guarantees for Liu Ying to be able to sit on the throne safely.

From countless compliments, Liu Ying finally got a little close to the people in front of her, eliminating the strange barrier.

Liu Ying felt the power of the emperor that Dong Ahou said for the first time, and finally understood what Dong Ahou said, to maintain the power of the emperor to sit on the throne, and the clan relatives will always be the most important link.

In Weiyang Palace, Luo Xin and Lu Pheasant were playing chess, Lu Pheasant's eyes were a little obscure, and he asked softly: "Childe, do you say that these princes and kings of the Liu family will be obedient?" ”

Luo Xin dropped a chess piece and said lightly: "Ejiao, it's not a question of whether they are obedient or not, but they must be obedient, otherwise it will be a war."

The kingdom is rich but bears few responsibilities, and the court is poor but has to be consumed everywhere, which is not the truth that should exist in the world.

We have given countless privileges to the group of heroes, is it for the sake of their prestige?

In order to support a war that must be won, all the brave generals in the world are here with us, and this is our confidence.

A thousand years ago, King Su summoned the princes three times in the capital city of Ho, each time to influence the world's major events, and this time it was the same. ”

Lu Pheasant's expression was relieved when he heard this, and he nodded slowly, "It's time, it's time to gather all the princes to Weiyang Palace." ”

With an order, the wind surged, and the most noble people in the world entered the Weiyang Palace.
