Chapter 020: Fifth Brother is a Muscular Man
On the first day, it was Shen Tujia who asked for 'personal leave' and sent someone to tell Liu Pengzu and Liu Sheng that there was no need to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion;
And the next day, even if Shen Tujia didn't send someone to inform them, the two brothers also consciously slept until three poles in the morning.
The reason is simple: today, it is the daily sun.
Unlike most feudal eras, the court meetings of the Han dynasty were not held every day, but according to the precedent of Emperor Taizu Gao Liu Bang every five days every five days, Emperor Taizu Gao went to Xinfeng to visit Emperor Taishang, which was held every five days.
Among them, on the first and fifteenth days of each month, that is, the two days of Shuo and Wang, the Shuowang Dynasty will be held; Other times, it's the Chang Dynasty.
Today is the 25th day of the 10th month of winter, which is the last regular pilgrimage of the month.
If nothing else, the focus of today's court discussion should still be the dispute between Prime Minister Shen Tujia and Neishi Chao Cuo about the "Cutting Domain".
Regarding the major affairs of the court, Liu Pengzu was a little concerned, but Liu Sheng didn't care.
After washing his face comfortably, and changing his clothes under the service of the palace people, Liu Sheng walked out of the Guangming Palace;
Walking on the flat stone road in the palace, Liu Sheng only leisurely carried his hands behind his back, swaying and walking, and did not forget to babble and hum a tune for unknown reason.
Without blinking, Liu Sheng arrived at his destination: Xuanming Palace.
"Little Jiu!"
Almost as soon as he saw Liu Sheng, Liu Fei, the fifth son of the emperor, ran forward and held Liu Sheng's arm with excitement.
"I haven't been here for a while, but I want to die as a brother!"
Liu Sheng didn't feel uncomfortable with his brother Liu Fei's enthusiasm, and let Liu Fei lead him and walk towards the Xuanming Palace.
Seeing the figures of the two brothers walking by, the palace people in the Xuanming Hall just smiled naturally, and continued to devote themselves to their respective work.
Although today's son Liu Qi said that he had ten sons, in fact, it was completely possible to divide the nine eldest of them into three camps.
- Li Ji, who gave birth to the emperor's eldest son Liu Rong, the second Liu De, and the third Liu Yan;
Cheng Ji, who gave birth to the fourth Liu Yu, the fifth Liu Fei, and the eighth Liu Duan;
and, Mrs. Jia, who gave birth to Liu Pengzu, the seventh and Liu Sheng, the ninth Liu.
As for the 'missing' sixth Liu Fa, although he was born to another wife: Tang Ji, Tang Ji was originally Cheng Ji's personal maidservant;
Back then, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, went to Xuanming Hall to stay overnight, but Mrs. Cheng happened to be a little 'inconvenient', and she was unwilling to let Liu Qi go to find other concubines, which made Tang Ji lucky to get the Son of Heaven and gave birth to Liu Fa, the sixth son of the emperor.
Therefore, the sixth Liu Fa can also be classified into the camp of 'Cheng Ji' together with the fourth Liu Yu, the fifth Liu Fei, and the eighth Liu Duan.
The 'old nest' of these three parties is also very interesting;
Li Ji and her three sons live in the Phoenix Hall in the northeast corner of Weiyang Palace.
Cheng Ji, Tang Ji and the four princes lived in the Xuanming Hall east of the Xuanmu.
Mrs. Jia took Liu Pengzu and Liu Sheng to live in the Guangming Hall next to the Xuanming Palace.
From the location distribution of these three temples, it is not difficult to see the relationship between these 'three camps'.
- Li Ji relied on herself to give birth to the emperor's eldest son, and gave birth to three sons in a row, and lived in the northeast corner of Weiyang Palace, in the very provocative 'Phoenix' hall;
The Xuanming Palace, where Cheng Ji is located, is next to Mrs. Jia's Guangming Palace, which is quite a bit of a group for warmth.
On weekdays, the princes basically use this to establish friendship with each other;
That is: the eldest of the first mother's siblings, the second and the third play together, and the fourth to the ninth are always mixed together.
Among the eight elder brothers, except for Liu Pengzu, his own brother who is a fellow brother of his mother, the only thing Liu Sheng can play with is his fifth brother Liu Fei, who is two years older than him.
The reason is very simple: Liu Fei, the fifth son of the emperor, is notoriously simple-minded, has developed limbs, knows how to dance knives and guns all day long, and doesn't know what the word 'scheming' looks like.
Liu Sheng asked himself, he was still a frank person;
Although he is not like the fifth brother Liu Fei, who has developed limbs and a simple mind, he also naturally dislikes the way of getting along with each other that is yin and yang, and the appearance is inconsistent.
When getting along with Liu Fei, Liu Sheng always feels very relaxed, and he doesn't need to worry too much at all;
Obviously, when getting along with Liu Sheng, Liu Fei, the fifth son of the emperor, also had no worries······
"Sit, sit down!"
Forcibly pulled Liu Sheng to the apse, squatted down by a 'school field', Liu Fei only took Liu Sheng's hand and put it on his strong biceps.
"Touch!"
"It's a little rough again!"
Seeing Liu Fei show off his achievements in the past period, Liu Sheng did not show a different color, only pinched it with a smile, and nodded pretending to be admired.
"Fifth brother is amazing."
"When I wait for the future, I will definitely be able to be a general!"
Sure enough, as Liu Sheng expected, as soon as he heard the words 'general', Liu Fei suddenly smiled, raised his head high, and hated to look at Liu Sheng with his nostrils.
Seeing Liu Fei's reaction, Liu Sheng shook his head with a wry smile, and flattered a few words such as 'my brother is really strong' and 'my muscles are really big', so that he could say his meaning without a trace.
"Eh, Fifth Brother."
"Why hasn't there been any movement in the Phoenix Hall recently?"
As if asking a question inadvertently, Liu Sheng looked at Liu Fei with a stiff smile as if he was afraid of revealing his intentions.
"In the past, Li Ji was at most every ten days and half a month, and she was going to make a noise, so as to show her identity as the 'emperor's eldest son and biological mother';"
"This cold and no movement~"
"Hehe, there are some, I'm not used to it······"
was praised by Liu Sheng for a while, and Liu Feiben was still happy to laugh;
But after hearing Liu Sheng's question, Liu Fei's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly turned sideways and looked around!
After making sure that there was no one around, Liu Fei hurriedly stood up again, took Liu Sheng's arm and entered the bedroom.
Then closed the doors and windows tightly, which made Liu Sheng's heart a little hairy, and Liu Feicai came to Liu Sheng's side anxiously and grabbed Liu Sheng's shoulders tightly.
"Xiao Jiu, tell my brother the truth!"
"That position, does Xiao Jiu also have the heart to fight?"
Frightened by Liu Fei's posture, Liu Sheng only subconsciously shook his head.
"That's the Seventh?"
Hearing the worry in Liu Fei's tone, Liu Sheng finally recovered from his previous stunned and shook his head again.
"That position, isn't it all about having a grandchild and no grandchild?"
"The queen didn't give birth to an heir, so according to the rules of the ancestors, that position, isn't it the eldest brother······"
Halfway through his words, Liu Sheng seemed to think of something, and stopped talking with a gloomy expression.
"Fifth brother, did you hear any rumors?"
"Alas!"
I saw Liu Fei slap his thigh suddenly, grabbed the tea bowl on the side, and poured it violently.
moistened his throat, and the anxious look on Liu Fei's face finally reached the extreme.
"Xiao Jiu's worship of the prime minister as a teacher is known by Li Ji!"
