In the first month of the birth of the emperor's eldest son, a grand full moon banquet was held in the palace.

The kings who have been in Chang'an City for a short time are finally going to meet the Queen Regent, who has never come forward.

The princes and kings of the Liu clan were very reluctant to see Lu Pheasant.

They didn't want to admit it, and from the bottom of their hearts, they had a fear of Lu Pheasant.

Lü Pheasant was able to regent because of the power of the Lü clan and the power of the patriarchy, and of course, the support of heroes such as Han Xin.

In other words, the dignitaries of Lu Pheasant were spelled out by the Lu family.

And the princes and kings of the Liu clan are because of their bloodline, and because Liu Bang is from an ordinary background, there are too few talents in the Liu clan.

So all close relatives arranged for the throne.

But even in the era when the bloodline of Bang Zhou decided everything, the treatment of those who had talent and those who did not have talent was completely different.

Ji Zhao was able to be passed on to the throne by King Wu, and he could become a regent after refusing, because he was an outstanding talent among his brothers.

King Wu believed that only if Ji Zhao succeeded to the throne, Ji Zhou's world could be stable

Among the princes and kings of the Liu family, only the king of Chu and the king of Huainan were talented.

The others can't talk about wine bags and rice bags, after all, there are no critical and dangerous events in the world to test the quality of these Liu princes and kings.

But even so, it can still be seen that most people can only be regarded as ordinary people.

The palace of the Han Dynasty was built very magnificently.

When Luo Yi built this city, he was determined to restore the supremacy of the pickaxe capital in the past, and to build this city into a big city that complements the east and west of Luoyang.

If the imperial palace is not magnificent, it will not be able to deter the ministers, it will not be able to show the majesty of the emperor and the supreme of the world, and the central government will not be able to deter the local kings.

At least from the expressions of the people who came to Chang'an for the first time, the city built by Luo Yi was very successful.

This time, the princes and princes did not gather together and walk in as usual, but directly entered the hall with a large number of palace laves.

This is the main hall built for banquets, and it is wide and lofty.

After entering the hall, everyone didn't talk much, so they were directly taken to their places by the guided Gong E.

The queue of palace ladies shuttling between the seats is like butterflies among the flowers.

Lu Pheasant, Liu Ying and Empress Zhang Yan appeared at the end, this was the full moon banquet of the eldest son, the eldest son was naturally going to appear, and the wrinkled skin that had just been born was removed, this was a very beautiful baby.

Luo Xin is the prime minister, above the princes and kings, and naturally before the ministers.

As Lu Pheasant sat down, the sound of silk and bamboo in the hall sounded, and the ministers sang praises together.

This is one of the changes brought about by Ji Zhao, and a large number of hymns were produced in the country of Luo.

These poems can be sung directly, and the ancestors are praised at every sacrifice, which eventually evolved into a special hymn style.

"The king's life is ten thousand years, may you always have light."

The ministers sang three times, and the hall was solemn, and then the little prince was taken down.

The ministers sat down, and Lu Pheasant smiled and said: "Because of God's blessing, the queen gave birth to the prince smoothly, which is a happy event for the Han Dynasty, so I and the emperor want you to come to Chang'an together to share the joy."

And it has been more than ten years since Emperor Gao divided the princes, and I can't even remember your faces clearly.

Now I can take the opportunity of the emperor's heir to meet you, which really makes me happy, and Emperor Gao will also be pleased if he knows about it.

Earlier, in the edict, I told you that I and the Emperor wanted to know what was going on in the kingdoms.

After more than ten years of recuperation, has the tired world recovered?

King of Changsha, you are the youngest brother of Emperor Gao, so let's talk about it first. ”

The king of Changsha never dreamed that Lu Pheasant would call him by name first, and he couldn't help but secretly say something bad in his heart, and the rest of the princes and kings of the Liu family also looked awe-inspiring, and even asked the king of Changsha with the worst strength first, is this to kill chickens and monkeys?

Liu Yue, the king of Changsha, had no choice, so he could only stand up and say according to the words he had made up earlier: "The minister will meet Her Majesty the Queen Mother Regent."

Since Chen Yu took over the throne of Changsha, he has been diligent, but Changsha is too remote and sparsely populated, and now the population of the entire country is only 40,000 households. ”

Lu Pheasant frowned instantly when he heard this, and the King of Changsha was still there slowly reporting the situation in Changsha Kingdom, not noticing Lu Pheasant's expression.

Until a loud shout came from above: "King of Changsha, what are you talking about?" ”

The entire hall fell silent in an instant, and the king of Changsha was directly stunned by this loud roar, and when he looked up, he saw Lu Pheasant looking at him with anger on his face, and there was even murderous aura in his eyes.

"King of Changsha, do you know how many hukou you had in the country when you were in Changsha?"

The king of Changsha felt that something was wrong, and then he heard Lu Pheasant say coldly: "When you were crowned king, there were 50,000 households in Changsha Kingdom, and after nearly ten years, you now tell me that there are only 40,000 households left in Changsha Kingdom?"

Are you stupid? Do you think that all the princes of the court are fools who can't even count one, two, three, four?

Who gave you the courage to dare to deceive me here?

Do you really think that the throne canonized by the first emperor will not dare to abolish you?

If I can't tell you a reason today, I will not only depose your throne, but also kill you directly in front of the people of the world, so that you know that the majesty of the Son of Heaven is inviolable. ”

As soon as Lu Pheasant's murderous words came out, the temperature of the entire hall seemed to drop to zero, and the heroes looked at the King of Changsha with smiles, as if staring at a piece of fatty meat.

The king of Changsha never expected that just two sentences would directly lead to a fire, and even lead to death, he had already felt the murderous aura coming from around him.

This terrifying scene instantly exposed the nature of his straw bag, and he even said directly: "Queen Mother, it is the incompetence of the ministers, which is why the population of Changsha has decreased,......"

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Pheasant shouted directly: "Take the king of Changsha to me, the corpse is vegetarian, the world is tired, it is the time to vigorously recover, and as a result, the population of the feudal country can be reduced, what qualifications do you have to be the king?"

Spread my will, from now on, deprive the king of Changsha of all the official system of knighthood, rush back to Peixian, and will not be allowed to leave for life.

Immediately sent people to Changsha to collect all the seals, official seals, and tiger talismans given by Emperor Gao.

Liu Yu, if it weren't for the fact that you are Emperor Gao's brother, I would have to kill you for the people of Changsha today.

Emperor Gao has been a hero all his life, and having a waste like you as a clan relative is really a shame under the Yellow Spring. ”

The hall was boiling in an instant, and he never expected that he would abolish a prince and king so easily.

But even the princes and kings didn't dare to speak for the king of Changsha, Lu Pheasant said that he was a high emperor, and whether the king of Changsha was true or not, it was too outrageous to quibble.

The king of Changsha wanted to say something, but he was directly dragged down by the guards, and Lu Pheasant refocused his attention on the kings and the marquis of Che, and snorted coldly: "I am very angry now, I hope that nothing like the king of Changsha will happen in the future."

Which one of you is not the emperor's clansman, which one is not the emperor's elders, but it turned out to be like this, Emperor Gao trusts you so much, how can I not be sad? ”

When the kings heard Lu Pheasant's words, they instantly raised the level of preparation for the report in their hearts, at least they had to pass this pass first.
