The safety of his eldest brother Liu Rong was almost entrusted to his brother Liu Pengzu, and Liu Sheng still did not forget to explain to Xia Que: optimistic about King Linjiang.

This sentence 'optimistic about Liu Rong' certainly does not refer to restricting Liu Rong's freedom in life, but to pay attention to Liu Rong's life safety.

- Liu Rong was personally taken back to the Lieutenant's Mansion by Liu Sheng, and in front of the entire Chang'an, he was taken back to the Imperial Palace.

In case Liu Rongzhen had an accident in the Taiwo, then Liu Sheng would really be muddy and fall off his crotch - it's not shit but shit is shit.

used the sentence 'If the eldest brother dies, then I won't live anymore', the dangerous thoughts that the elder brother Liu Pengzu may have given birth to are eliminated, and the sentence 'If the king of Linjiang has something, the entire palace will be buried', and the entire palace will be buried', and the entire palace will be explained;

After everything was arranged, Liu Shengcai walked out of the palace gate gracefully, but he didn't even glance at Zhidu who was waiting outside the palace gate, so he got into the carriage and went straight to the Weiyang Palace where Tianziqi was located.

Seeing that Liu Sheng finally appeared, Zhi Du hurriedly stepped forward;

was ignored by Liu Sheng and hung in place, and couldn't help but be stunned.

After Liu Sheng walked out a long way by car, he sent someone to turn back and inform himself of his whereabouts, Zhidu only calmed down and followed the direction where Liu Sheng left.

——In the Xuanshu Hall of Weiyang Palace, the Son of Heaven has been waiting for a long time······

·

"Child······

"-Kneel down~"

Yu got off the car outside Sima Gate in a regular manner, walked to the outside of the Xuanshu Palace, and then passed it on, Liu Shengcai finally appeared in the Xuanshu Hall as he wished;

Seeing Tianziqi in person, Liu Shengdu didn't have time to hurry to salute, when he heard a low 'kneel' from Tianziqi on the royal couch.

knelt down without thinking, bowed silently to the Son of Heaven, and was about to speak, but was once again preempted by the Son of Heaven.

"The prince is here, but if there is something, I want to tell Yu Zhen~"

"Ann?"

The yin and yang weird tone caused Liu Shengjian to raise his head with a smile, and he was about to say something subconsciously;

But when he saw that on the royal couch, Tianzi Qi only turned sideways with a blank face, and looked at Wei Juan, who was not far away from him, and his face was already frightened.

Although his eyes fell on Wei Xuan's body, his fingers were dotted towards Liu Sheng, who was kneeling in the center of the hall.

"I'm the prince~"

"How can I say it······"

"—Not long after becoming the crown prince, he was already about to ride on my neck to command the world;"

"I think that in the future, Qing will become the crown prince, and it will be difficult to escape such a fate."

"When the time comes, for the sake of my old face, let's be patient······"

···

"What can I do~"

"-Now this Han family, it's no longer my final say~"

"Hey;"

"Hey······ hey"

Tianziqi's kung fu to speak, Zhidu was also late, only bowed his hand to Tianziqi slightly, and under the gaze of Tianziqi, he silently walked to the side of the hall and sat down.

And after Zhidu sat down, Tianzi Qi seemed to be sudden, but in fact he was full of sarcasm, and moved back to Liu Sheng again.

"Let's talk about it~"

"Tell me what the prince is here to tell me to do?"

"—boldly say;"

"I can still send this bone for the prince for a few years······"

Listening to the words of Tianzi Qi one after another, Liu Sheng almost wanted to speak, but he lowered his head with a stiff face.

But after the Son of Heaven said again, 'What does the prince command', Liu Sheng couldn't continue to be silent no matter what······

"Son, courage;"

"Ask my father to condemn ······"

As soon as he spoke, Liu Sheng put his attitude right: The son came to confess to his father.

Such a correct attitude also made the frightened look on Wei Juan's face on the side slow down a little;

But the Son of Heaven has obviously not completely dissipated his anger, or rather, Liu Sheng's upright attitude alone is not enough to make the Son of Heaven angry······

"Condemnation?"

"-I, cure the prince's sin?"

···

"His Royal Highness the Prince, is this a joke?"

"—After the prince of the prince's dynasty and the shrine of the temple;"

"How can I dare to cure the prince's crimes?"

"Don't say that it's for me to cure the prince's sin."

"If the prince can cure my sins and let me end up in a bad situation, it is enough for me to bathe and change my clothes, burn incense and pray in the Tai and Gao Ermiao."

···

"Prince, don't say such things again, come and entertain this old bone."

"If you have any commands, just say it."

"Even if I fight this old bone, I will never dare to disobey the will of the prince······"

It was another heart-wrenching remark, which only provoked Liu Sheng, and even Wei Juan on the side of the imperial couch and Zhi Du who knelt on the side of the palace, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

In the end, the Son of Heaven Qiben still had a playful and playful tone, and it was already a little gloomy.

was already made by Tianziqi's yin and yang strange words, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and when he heard Tianziqi's anger that had gradually overflowed, Liu Sheng finally had to kneel straight and kowtow to Tianziqi.

Although he didn't open his mouth and didn't spit out even a word, he still showed his attitude when he kowtowed respectfully.

——The son is guilty, the son knows his mistake, and the son admits punishment.

It's just that Liu Sheng's deferential posture still couldn't stop Tianzi Qi, and moved the gloomy gaze that was obviously mixed with anger to Wei Juan beside him.

"I'm getting old~"

"Lately, I can't remember anything."

"I still have to bother Qing, remind me a little;"

"-The lieutenant of my Han family, who has the power and responsibility?"

As soon as the Son of Heaven said this, he saw the good old man Wei Juan hurriedly stood up and bowed to the Son of Heaven with a straight look.

After performing all the salutes, he maintained the posture of kneeling and arching his hands, and bent down towards the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty."

"Lieutenant, originally a Qin official, is mainly responsible for Gongwei Jingshi;"

"Emperor Taizu Gao established the Han Guozuo, inherited the position of lieutenant of Qin, and was still responsible for guarding the capital Chang'an, and personally took charge of the Northern Army."

"Although it is not among the Jiuqing, it is at the same level as the Jiuqing, and it is the rank of the two thousand stones······"

···

"Under the lieutenant, there are two Cheng, two Hou, as well as Sima and a number of Qianren, all of whom are the rank of Qianshi."

"The subordinate officials have the four orders of Zhongli, Sihu, Arsenal, and Duship; There are three captains in the capital ship and arsenal, and two lieutenants in the middle base. ”

"Sihu originally belonged to Shaofu, and was classified as a lieutenant during the first emperor's reign, with a rank of a thousand stones, and two supervisors on the left and right."

"In addition to the responsibility of taking charge of the Northern Army and guarding the capital division of Chang'an, the city gates of Chang'an, as well as the defense of the city walls, are also within the scope of the lieutenant's responsibility······

Kneeling meticulously and giving a standard answer to Tianziqi's question, Wei Juan bowed to Tianziqi again.

I saw Tianzi Qi nodding slowly, and glanced sideways at Liu Sheng, who was kneeling in the hall, and then asked again: "What about the prince?" ”

"What kind of status and what kind of rights should the prince of my Han family have?"

"What about Lieutenant?"

···

"And;"

"I really can't remember clearly, King Linjiang, why he was recruited into Chang'an."

"Please remind me: King Linjiang, what crime did you commit?"

"Who did I ask to investigate this matter before?"

"Is the sin of King Linjiang that the prince can interfere with, and whether the prince has the right to interfere?"

Seeing that the Son of Heaven 'asked' the real key, Wei Juan's face only flashed with a hint of panic!

Subconsciously turned his head sideways and glanced at Liu Sheng from the corner of his eye, but he didn't see the expected panic and shame on Liu Sheng's face······

"Alas······"

"Prince, what a ······"

"That's it~"

"In the future, let's teach slowly······"

Thinking like this, he saw Wei Wan quietly shaking his head and sighing lightly;

After the Son of Heaven Qi let out two light coughs with some impatience, he raised his head again and bowed to the Son of Heaven again.

"Your Majesty."

"According to the etiquette and system designated by Emperor Taizu Gao for the crown prince at that time, that is, the later Emperor Xiaohui, the prince and prince of my Han family should be a prince, and the etiquette is the same as Jiuqing."

"The palace where the prince lives should be called: the prince's house; The prince's cronies and subordinate officials should call the prince "family." ”

"In terms of system, the prince can have a Sima army as the prince's pro-army."

"The subordinate officials of the prince's family, with the court as a reference, have the prince and the prince, the prince, the teacher, and the young guard, all of whom are responsible for teaching the prince. (The Third Prince of the Prince)"

"In addition, there are also Prince Zhan Shi, Xima, Concubine, Sheren, Zhongdun Guard, Door Doctor, etc. (Prince Jiuqing), who are respectively responsible for the affairs of the prince's palace, as well as the prince's travel, and the prince's correspondence with His Majesty."

···

"According to the etiquette system, in addition to the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, and the Empress, whether it is a courtier or a hundred officials, or a prince or nobleman, or an internal and external vassal king, clan and prince, should regard the prince as the king."

"But in matters concerning state affairs and court affairs, the crown prince does not have the power to order or dispatch any court with subordinates;"

"Unless His Majesty personally allows it, the only thing the prince can command is the subordinate officials in the palace, except for the Taifu, Taishi, and Taibao······"

According to his own memory, the order of the rights of the Han prince was revealed, and Wei Juan's voice was obviously stagnant;

looked at Liu Sheng behind him again, and then continued helplessly: "As for the ······ of King Linjiang"

"Well, it's because when building the palace, regardless of the obstruction of the king and the internal history, the outer wall of the Gangneung Taimiao was destroyed, and the area that originally belonged to the Taimiao was incorporated into his own palace."

"Upon learning of this, His Majesty ordered the King of Linjiang to enter the court, and asked the court lieutenant and lieutenant to investigate the matter together."

"And these things ······"

"These things ······"

···

"These things are not what the prince can and should interfere in."

"Whether it is investigating the sins of the princes and kings, or the affairs related to the Taimiao, it is not something that the prince can decide or interfere with;"

"Especially the matter related to the Taimiao, the prince, there is absolutely no reason to interfere······"

Finally, with one more word, Wei Juan finally let out a sigh of relief, and then stood up.

is also a glance at the arrangement of crowns, hats, robes, and meticulously bow to the Son of Heaven;

But even if there was a distance of more than a dozen steps, Liu Sheng could still clearly feel that Wei Juan's worship to the Son of Heaven was clearly accompanied by a little pleading.

- Wei Xuan, who has not yet become the crown prince, begged the Son of Heaven to enlighten because of Liu Sheng's 'mistake'······

"What does the prince think?"

Raising his head with a complicated face, looking at the back of Wei Juan bowing to the Son of Heaven, Liu Sheng's heart was only mixed for a while;

Hearing Tianziqi's deep voice in his ears, Liu Sheng had no choice but to move his gaze sideways, but when he saw Tianziqi looking at him, he was already undisguised anger.

"Zhonglang will be transferred to the crown prince, I have already discussed it with the queen mother."

"It won't be long before General Zhonglang will be the prince's teacher."

"—how?"

"Zhonglang will say this, the prince thinks, is it right?"

···

"If it's not right, Prince Lao said clearly: what's wrong, why is it wrong;"

"If ······"

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven finally took a deep breath, pressed the anger in his heart a little, and then turned sideways a little, pointing to Zhidu, who was silently kneeling on the side of the temple.

"If the prince thinks that Zhonglang will be right, then give the lieutenant an explanation."

"——King Linjiang, the lieutenant was imprisoned in the lieutenant's mansion on my orders."

"As a result, the prince didn't even say hello, and took the king of Linjiang away;"

"The lieutenant came to the door, and the prince didn't even see him?"

···

"The prince must have his own reasons for doing this;"

"As a mere Son of Heaven, I categorically don't dare to discuss the prince's actions."

"But no matter what, Lieutenant, you are acting on my orders."

"Just ask the prince, for the sake of my old face, give the lieutenant an explanation······"

"-After all, for this matter, the lieutenant has also been outside the palace, and has been exposed to the wind and sun for two days;"

"If you don't give an explanation, I'm afraid it's a little unreasonable?"

In the end, Tianzi Qi finally sank his face completely, and his gloomy and compassionate gaze fell on Liu Sheng impartially.

Feeling the coldness in the gaze of the Son of Heaven looking at him, even if he had been mentally prepared for this, Liu Sheng couldn't help but shudder.

The deep meaning in the words of the Son of Heaven, how could Liu Sheng not understand?

Tianzi Qi did not want Liu Sheng to give Lieutenant Zhidu an explanation;

- Tianzi Qi wants Liu Sheng to give himself an explanation!

If Liu Sheng can't give a satisfactory explanation today, then Liu Sheng's robbery of Liu Rong from the Lieutenant's Mansion will not only fail to relieve Liu Rong's predicament, but will even make Liu Sheng himself be sucked into this huge whirlpool.

Fortunately, Liu Sheng had already expected all this before starting from the Taigong Palace and meeting the Son of Heaven in Weiyang Palace;

To be more precise: Liu Sheng entered the palace to face the saint this time, in order to give an explanation to the Son of Heaven for robbing Liu Rong by himself······

"Whew~"

"I hope the old man can still listen to the words······"

Cheer yourself up in your heart and take a few deep breaths;

After doing a good job of mental construction, Liu Sheng finally straightened his waist, raised his head, and looked at the deep, cold, and slightly annoyed eyes of the Heavenly Son Qi without dodging······

"Son, I respectfully play."

"King Linjiang's destruction of the Jiangling Taimiao, Erchen believes that there is another hidden story."

said a word with a pale face, and then carefully looked at the face of the Son of Heaven;

After making sure that Tianzi Qi did not show emotions such as impatience and irritability, Liu Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Subsequently, Liu Sheng put an eternal truth in front of his future teacher, Wei Juan, and Zhidu, the lieutenant of the current dynasty, in front of Tianzi Qi.

-- Recognizing reason but not recognizing people, helping people but not helping relatives, is a moral quality that only a saint can possess in an ideal state.

Obviously, Liu Sheng is not a saint;

The Son of Heaven of the Han family has never produced a 'saint'······

"As early as the time of the first emperor, the proposal to reduce the royal power and military power of the princes has appeared in the court;"

"After my father succeeded to the throne, the old internal history and the current imperial history doctor made a mistake, and he personally presented the "Cutting Domain" to persuade my father to cut the domain."

"At the beginning of last year, the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu caused wars all over the world, and the people were poisoned by the war, and the people were struggling to make a living."

"Since the rebellion was put down, for the past year and a half, the Chang'an court has been busy cutting the rights of the princes and kings."

"-In order to avoid a tragedy like the Wu Chu Rebellion, let the people of the world be devastated by the war again."

"And this is enough to prove: King Linjiang, it is impossible to damage the Jiangling Taimiao."

The sonorous and powerful words only caused Wei Juan and Zhi Du on the side to be slightly stunned, and then saw Liu Sheng raising his head confidently.

"First, since the Wu Chu Rebellion, the clan relatives and princes of my Han family have been deprived of a lot of power."

"Even an elder like King Chu and a prime-aged clan like King Liang are no longer able to decide many things about the country."

"——The King of Chu and the King of Liang are still like this, not to mention the King of Linjiang who has just been crowned a short time ago and has not yet been crowned an adult?"

"Just been feuded and just inaugurated as a vassal domain, and even if you are not even familiar with your own king, even if the king of Linjiang really gives the order of 'encroaching on the Taimiao soil', who will obey it?"

After asking two questions one after another, Liu Sheng gritted his teeth with determination and bowed his hand to the Son of Heaven.

"Therefore, Erchen thinks: The king of Linjiang invaded the land of Jiangling Taimiao, and there must be a villain who made a stumbling block and deliberately slandered it!"

"Since it is slander, then the king of Linjiang should no longer stay in the lieutenant's mansion and be imprisoned in a prison cell."

···

"Moreover, my father ordered the lieutenant to imprison the king of Linjiang, and he only let the king of Linjiang temporarily live in the lieutenant's mansion to wait for his father to deal with it."

"In that case, why can't King Linjiang be in the palace and wait for his father's disposal?"

"Isn't it too womb to compare to the cell in the lieutenant's mansion?"

"Shouldn't the King of Linjiang live in the palace of his son, rather than in the dark lieutenant's prison?"

Saying this without blushing or panting, Liu Sheng still did not forget to turn sideways and look at Zhidu on the side of the hall.

Although he didn't speak, his incomparably vivid gaze was clearly asking Zhidu: Lieutenant, let's talk about it, isn't this the truth?

Receiving Liu Sheng's eye signal, Zhi Du, who was still ashamed of this matter, naturally did not have the interest to react.

On the royal couch, the Son of Heaven Qiyu's anger was not gone, and he secretly snorted: Stirring up nonsense.

But it was precisely this complaining nature of the word 'nonsense' that just gave Liu Sheng a chance.

- An opportunity to get to the point and express the core idea······

"Maybe in my father's opinion, the son has no evidence, so he said that the king of Linjiang was wronged and slandered, and he was clearly messing around."

"But the son heard that if the father breaks the law, then the son should not report the father;

"If the husband has broken the law, the wife should likewise not report the husband;"

"The master has broken the law, and the slave should not be reported."

In the "Han Law" formulated by Xiao Xiangguo, this is collectively called: non-public notice."

"Emperor Taizu Gao: All sons sue their fathers, wives sue their husbands, and slaves sue their masters, all of them are not public notices, and counties and localities should not listen to them."

···

"Therefore, Erchen is not messing around, but is the same as the common people, protecting his siblings who are connected to his blood."

"The son heard that the truth was told to outsiders;"

"——Between relatives, there should be friendship, not reasoning."

"Even if my father thinks that the son is messing around, the son still thinks that the truth is not for ······ relatives."
