Wei Qing Feng Hou Chapter 12 Conversation between Ancestors and Grandchildren (II)
After Liu Che left the Empress Dowager Dou's bedroom, he asked his grandmother for peace every day, and fulfilled the promise of that day, and did not live up to the 'words of the Son of Heaven are the golden rule', and he also served with all his heart during the period, so the days of filial piety also passed day after day.
Soon it was the day when the envoys sent by the Xiongnu entered Beijing, and the ministers were already standing in the main hall early in the morning, waiting for the Son of Heaven and the Xiongnu envoys.
Emperor Liu Che changed his formal clothes in the side hall, and selected several sets of gorgeous clothes, all of which felt that he was not majestic and domineering, and then chose a black and red dragon robe to put on his body, stepped on dragon boots, and wore a red middle coat, and then matched with the imperial crown of twelve and white jade crowns, which looked slightly domineering. After taking a closer look at the bronze mirror, he shouted with full anger: "Go to the court!"
The eunuch Guo Sheren was in front, Liu Che was in the center, and behind were twenty or thirty Yulin soldiers to protect the emperor's safety!
"Your Majesty is coming!" , Guo Sheren stepped into Changle Palace and shouted.
When the courtiers heard this, they bowed their heads and knelt on their seats to greet the emperor.
Liu Che walked to the dragon chair and sat down, straightened his waist, and looked at the low minister of civil and military affairs with his eyes.
"Today, the Huns entered the palace, and the ministers of Zhushi should think carefully about their deliberations, and they must not lose the momentum of my Han family! Alright, herald into the temple! Liu Che said with the dragon pattern armrest on the side of the dragon chair.
"Your Majesty has a decree, announce that the Hun envoy will enter the palace to discuss matters!"
"Messenger of the Xuan Huns"
"Messenger of the Xuan Huns"
"Xuan Xiongnu envoy, enter the temple!" One by one, it came out. The Xiongnu envoys who were waiting outside the palace gate to be summoned, led by their attendants, walked slowly towards the main hall of the political center. The envoy was anxious all the way, looking at the majestic and solemn Yulin Army all the way, the luxurious and atmospheric palace, and he didn't dare to be angry, so he could only follow the pace of the attendants and enter the magnificent and majestic Changle Palace.
Under the attention of all the civil and military personnel, the messenger dressed in a bearded suit trembled and walked to the same level as Dou Ying and stopped.
"Nubilie, the envoy of the Xiongnu Khanate, visited the Han Emperor and hoped that the Han Emperor would live forever!" The envoy held his chest in his left hand and bowed to the Son of Heaven Liu Che to ask about it.
Liu Che was silent for a moment, and responded: "Nubilie's envoy, I have been fortunate all the way, I have come from afar, I am very comforted, and I have given ten agate." ”
The ministers were in an uproar, not understanding how His Majesty the Emperor could be so generous, and they didn't dare to ask more, so they had to let Liu Che play.
Nubilie shook his chest again and thanked him: "Nubilie thanked the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!" ”
Liu Che sat on the dragon chair and said with a smile: "Special envoy, just laugh at it, my Han has a vast territory, and dozens of agates are nothing; If you move in the future, this strange thing will be replaced by ordnance and thrown on the battlefield, and I hope there will not be such a day. ”
Now a fool can hear that Liu Che is very dissatisfied with the Xiongnu's invasion of the frontier. And Nanubilie could naturally understand what it meant, so he stopped speaking, took a few steps back, and was under Dou Ying.
Liu Che saw that Nubilie was much more honest, and he didn't give him a face, and asked Dou Yingdao, "Prime Minister, today's special envoy Nubilie, what is the matter with entering Beijing, you and the above, I will listen to it first!" ”
Dou Ying, who was sitting first on the left, immediately stood up with a wat in his hand.
"Your Majesty, the Huns wanted to send an envoy to Beijing to present our emperor on the border matter more than a month ago, and wanted to turn the war into a jade silk; Now that his envoy has entered Beijing to meet my emperor, the message that the minister has received is like this, I wonder if there is anything else that the envoy of Nubi Lie has? ”
Liu Che sat on it, holding back a smile, trying to keep a straight face, and said with a bow: "Ministers, what do you think of what the prime minister said?" ”
"Your Majesty, the last general thinks that the Huns' picking quarrels and provoking troubles this time has caused countless of my border guards to die on the frontier, countless Han people have been displaced, and they have lost their men, which is really hateful; In this regard, the last general asks His Majesty to send troops to recruit unsubordinate ministers, so that the Yi people will know that my Han is by no means a lamb to be slaughtered; Even if the last general dies in battle, the successor will also avenge me, please think twice! The fifth general on the right, "Teng", suddenly stood up and suggested to Liu Che to send troops.
I saw that the man had a beard, big eyes and sword eyebrows, and a visible scar on his face. This person is Gongsun Ao, who was the deputy general of Yulin at the time, fought with the Hun cavalry in the early stage, not to mention a complete victory, but the Huns did not bargain for anything, Liu Che knew that he made an order, let him be the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, temporarily in charge of training the Yulin Army.
As the emperor's cronies and generals, when he said this, even the general and prime minister were choked, and Liu Che, the son of heaven, was even more energetic, and for a while, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were full of anger, and Nubilie at this time was sweating profusely, and he didn't dare to get angry, and stood there in a daze.
Liu Che, the emperor of the land who was sitting on it, naturally took in his expression, and sneered: "The envoy doesn't have to be afraid, my Han is a state of etiquette, and I won't embarrass you." ”
Cheng also stood up from time to time, thinking that what Gongsun Ao said was reasonable, and seconded it.
Nubi Lie, who had thought of a good rhetoric, was caught off guard by Gongsun Ao's irritation, and originally thought that this envoy would play a role in the Han court, but he didn't expect it to be such a scene, so he could only receive the errand of welcoming the princess and his relatives into his stomach.
"Envoy Nubilie, you have also seen and heard, after today's court meeting, you will go back to the grassland to reply to your khan, and let him think twice in the future, and do not do stupid things, otherwise it will be too late to regret it! Okay, you step aside, I still have state affairs to discuss with the secretaries! Liu Che said with a smile.
Nubilie also wanted to withdraw from the palace that made him depressed, lest he give his life here, so he said: "Then the minister will return to the Khanate to resume his life." ”
"Go ahead!" With a wave of Liu Che's hand, a close attendant took him out of the palace gate and disappeared into the crowd.
After the court meeting was over, it was natural for each to go back to his own home and handle his own government affairs. Liu Che came to the Empress Dowager Dou's bedroom and asked her for peace!
"Che'er, I also heard about today's court meeting, and I did a good job, and now I can rest assured that I will hand over the jade seal and government affairs to you." Empress Dowager Dou lay on the cotton chair, grabbed Liu Che's hand and said.
In fact, Dou Yifang has long wanted to hand over the power to this grandson, and it is not too late now. She has gone through three dynasties, guarding the Han Dynasty, and now she is in her last years, and she doesn't know when she will be able to drive the crane west and reunite with her husband and son.
She summoned Liu Che to the front and told Liu Che in a serious tone, "Back then, his mother Wang Wan designed Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty to depose the crown prince Liu Rong, and intercepted and burned the letter that Liu Rong wrote to Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty in prison, which finally led to Liu Rong's suicide, and only then did he have the later crown prince Liu Che, and now Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who is now admired by thousands of people." She then said, the world of our Liu family can't fall into the hands of others in your hands! “。
Obviously, Dou Yifang has something to say that she can't let her relatives interfere in politics, and everything she does is for the Liu family. However, Dou Yifang's interference in the Han family's world is still less?
The Empress Dowager Dou did not mention the Dou family, but in fact, she knew in her heart that after her death, the strength of the Dou family would definitely be affected, and if she could tell Liu Che about some of the actions or behaviors of the Empress Dowager, Liu Che would also be aware of it, so she could restrain the power of the Empress Dowager and the Wang family, and also told Liu Che that the country belonged to the Liu family, and the Wang family must not interfere, because he expected that after his death, the Empress Dowager and his brother would monopolize power, and they would also install people from the Wang family to interfere in the government. The Empress Dowager Dou saw this very accurately, and later the Empress Dowager also wanted to do so, but with the reminder of the Empress Dowager Dou, she didn't succeed!
When talking to Liu Che about this, the Empress Dowager Dou was even more sad, and said with almost all her strength, she couldn't let the Liu family's world change her surname, nor could she change her surname in Liu Che's hands, it can be said that what he said was also listened to by Liu Che, but in fact, some people felt that it seemed to be for the sake of the Liu family's world, but in fact, she also wanted the Dou family to have a living space, and she also had her own selfishness.
In the Han Dynasty, if it is said that it can be compared with Empress Lu is the Empress Dowager Dou Yifang.
On May 11, the sixth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty (135 B.C.), the empress dowager, who had gone through three dynasties, passed away peacefully at the age of 72. He was buried with Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and was nicknamed Empress Xiaowen. The edict gave all the money and wealth of his East Palace to his only surviving daughter, the eldest princess Liu Yan.
