Chapter 442: Did You See the Poor Dagger?
"I heard that Gillian has already lived in the Jiaofang Palace?"
After Liu Sheng's rather deliberate ridicule, I don't know how long there was silence in the huge palace test;
In the end, among the brothers, Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu, who claimed to be the closest to Liu Sheng, used such a vague reminder to inquire about Liu Sheng's personal situation.
Over the years, the relationship between the brothers has already undergone earth-shaking changes.
——The former trio of heirs have now become Liu Rong, the king of Linjiang, a good man at home, Liu De, the king of Hejian, a cultural protector, and Liu Si, the late king of Zhongshan.
The whole four-person group of Xuanming Palace, the fourth Liu Yulu King is more and more comfortable, and he can sit and talk with the Confucian students in Ludi again, talk about etiquette and morality, and on the other hand, he can also fight cocks and lackeys, and the sound is fierce, and the contrast with one hand is real.
The fifth Liu Fei went to Jiangdu, and at first it was obvious that he was not accustomed to the water and soil - mainly because the south could not fight, which made Liu Fei uncomfortable;
So much so that for a period of time, Liu Fei was tinkering all day long to do something further south, such as forcing Zhao Tuo to the opposite, so as to realize his dream of being a general again, but unfortunately Zhao Tuo didn't pay attention to Liu Fei.
It wasn't until later that Liu Fei found a sense of belonging in the matter of drying salt: to make salt for the army fighting against the Huns and ensure the logistics of the army!
With this thought, Liu Fei was able to settle down, and he didn't do too much to find trouble for the former emperor Liu Qi and the current Liu Sheng.
The sixth Liu Fa has not changed much, and the social fear in the past has become approachable today.
What's the approachability?
- I can talk to anyone I can talk to, laugh twice, and then hehe, laugh and leave by myself, not bothersome at all.
Liu Sheng can only say: As far as the feng shui of Changsha is concerned, Liu Fa can be raised into what he is now, and Liu Fa's eight characters are somewhat something.
To say that among the brothers, the most unexpected situation is undoubtedly Liu Pengzu, the king of Zhao.
recalled that in the early years, when Liu Sheng and Liu Pengzu were still 'brothers', they had a good relationship, and they almost didn't wear a pair of pants.
- Don't say it!
- There were a few times when by chance, the brothers really changed their pants and wore them!
Based on this, the brothers talked about it in private in the early years, saying that when Liu Sheng sat in the world, the behavior of the princes of the Kwantung clan would be the fastest life that Liu Pengzu could live.
As a result, the change of events was indeed greatly unexpected by the brothers.
On the throne, Liu Sheng sat up;
King Zhao did let Liu Pengzu do it.
As a result, within a few years, Liu Pengzu began to kill his own Wang Xiang, but the tail of his hands was still very clean, so that people couldn't grasp the slightest handle at all;
When Liu Sheng sent Liu Pengzu's 'maternal uncle': Marquis Bo Rongnu to Liu Pengzu to look at, and sent Liu Pengzu's 'mother' Mrs. Bo to Handan in advance, Liu Pengzu set his sights on the business of pouring out arms.
After repeating it several times, Liu Sheng no longer cared about brotherhood, and directly put the half-house arrest of this half-brother and half-mother in the palace of King Zhao.
said that he was under house arrest, but he was just watched by his mother, Mrs. Bo, and his maternal uncle, Bo Rongnu, so as not to cause trouble everywhere.
It's just that in this way, the brothers and siblings who should have been more than Jin Jian with Liu Shengqing have changed from Liu Pengzu, the brother of a mother's compatriot, to Liu Fei, a big-chested and brainless old man.
So much so that at this moment, Liu Fei instinctively reminded Liu Sheng vaguely as 'today's best brother', and at the same time, he didn't forget to look at his younger brother Liu Pengzu with a little embarrassment.
And after Liu Fei's vague reminder, Liu Sheng's face, which was full of gentle smiles a moment ago, only flashed a touch of stiffness.
"Which pot is not opened, which pot is ······"
"What are I doing with this stubble?"
Secretly smacked himself, and squeezed out a smile again with some effort, Liu Shengcai laughed with a little embarrassment.
"Ahem, what's that, Gillian is still young, still young······"
"Besides, your brothers are in front, and it's not easy for me to be the younger brother?"
A seemingly reasonable, but in fact it can't withstand scrutiny at all, only to make the atmosphere in the hall more and more strange.
Brothers, you look at me, I look at you, in the end, Liu Yu, the fourth child, was born, and as a representative of Ludi, he gave a word of advice with Ludi characteristics.
"Your Majesty remembers the order of the elders and the young, and the ministers are terrified."
"It's just that as early as the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, in front of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, he gave an order to the soon-to-be-crowned Qi Mourning Hui Wang'er: All the relatives of the Liu clan should be discussed first by the monarch and ministers, and then by the elders and young."
"And Emperor Taizu Gao's words should also be understood as: All the relatives of the Liu clan should first read the sect, and then recite the rites and teach people."
"——The emperor's heir is the foundation of the sect and the stability of the world."
"With such significance, Your Majesty should no longer think about whether his brother has an heir, or whether the queen is too young."
"Even if the queen is really young, Your Majesty should probably find another way······"
"Well, even if the eldest son is not born, or even the prince, at least let the people inside and outside the court, and even the world, know that there are no unspeakable hidden dangers in the spread of the sect······"
I have to say that Liu Yu's persuasion was very bold.
Even if these words did not come from Liu Yu's mouth, but from the mouth of Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu, 'when today's Zisheng is the best brother and brother', it seems a little too bold.
First, it is the particularity of the group of clan relatives and princes that makes this group and the court and the imperial power themselves in a cooperative and hostile position; That is, it is divided into upper and lower dignity, and it is also about the clan generation.
Although most of the time, it is the son of heaven with a lower rank, and the princes of the clan with a higher rank of seniority, so that it is difficult for the two to balance the question of 'on the monarch or the elder and young', but in the end, it can always be solved in some slightly awkward ways.
It's similar to a treatise: You call me Your Majesty, and I call you Uncle Huang, and it doesn't affect at all.
It's just that the topic of heirs is not only sensitive to the imperial heirs, but even the royal heirs of the clan princes are equally sensitive.
- Don't forget: today's Han family is still in the historical cycle of cutting feudal domains;
For a long time in the future, cutting the feudal domain will be the main theme of the Liu Han regime against the clan princes.
Especially in the early years, after the court officially implemented the "Tui En Ce" and used all the sons of the princes as kings and marquis to fundamentally achieve the goal of cutting the domain, the heirs of the princes of the clan have changed from 'the eldest son is the crown prince, and the others are soy sauce' in the past, to the chaotic scene today.
Therefore, if Liu Rong hadn't taken the initiative to bring up the matter of canonizing the crown prince, the topic of heirs would have been very inconvenient to appear at today's dinner.
Whether Liu Sheng asked about the heirs of his brothers, or everyone cared about Liu Sheng's heirs.
Under such a premise, Liu Yu not only led the topic to Liu Sheng's heirs, but even went further, secretly reminding Liu Sheng to 'give birth to a son and a half daughter to prove his fertility'.
Liu Sheng had to say: Liu Yu, it has really changed.
Become very brave, and, very good at being measured······
"If you say this any more, it will be easily soluble in water;"
"But if you are a little more tactful, you will be suspected of 'ill-intentioned'······"
"Hey;"
"King Lu for so many years, fourth brother, it's really not in vain······"
"Lu Ru's set, the fourth brother can be regarded as having the essence of it······"

Liu Ju issued a declaration and issued an order to the civil and military officials, saying: "Your Majesty is trapped in Ganquan Palace due to illness, and I suspect that something may have happened, and the traitorous ministers want to take the opportunity to rebel. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty then returned from Ganquan Palace, came to Jianzhang Palace in the west of Chang'an City, issued an edict to recruit the troops of the counties near Sanfu, and deployed officials below 2,000 stones, which were under the part-time command of the prime minister. Liu Ju also sent an envoy to falsely pass on the holy decree to pardon and release the prisoners who were imprisoned in the official prison of Chang'an Zhongdu, and ordered the young Fu Shide and the doorman Zhang Guang to be under their jurisdiction respectively; He also sent Chang'an prisoners such as Hou Zhifujie to levy the Hu cavalry in Changshui and Xuanqu, all of whom were fully armed to join him.
The squire Ma Tong was sent to Chang'an by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and when he learned of this, he immediately chased after him, arrested Ruhou, and told the Hu people: "The runes brought by Ruhou are fake, and you can't listen to him!" So he put Ruhou to death and led the Hu cavalry into Chang'an; He also requisitioned and transferred the ship's soldiers to Qiu Cheng, a great merchant, and handed them over to the command of Qiu Cheng, a great merchant. At the beginning, the runes of the Han Dynasty were pure red, and because Liu used red runes, he added yellow tassels to the runes issued by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to show the difference.
Liu Ju came to the south gate of the northern army barracks, stood on the car, summoned Ren An, the envoy of the Northern Army, and issued a talisman to order Ren An to send troops. But after Ren An bowed to the charm, he returned to the camp and closed his door. Liu Ju led people away, forcibly armed about tens of thousands of citizens of the four cities of Chang'an, and outside the west gate of Changle Palace, he encountered the army led by Prime Minister Liu Quyu, and the two sides fought for five days, killing tens of thousands of people, and blood was left in the ditch on the side of the street like water. The people say that "the prince rebels", so people do not attach themselves to the prince, but the forces on the prime minister's side continue to strengthen.
Geng Yin (17th), Liu was defeated and fled south to Chang'an City. Si Zhitian Renzheng led his troops to guard the city gate, because he felt that Liu Ju and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were father and son, and he was unwilling to persecute too quickly, so Liu Ju was able to escape from the city. Liu Quyu wanted to kill Tian Ren, and the Imperial Doctor said to Liu Quyu in a violent victory: "Si Zhi is a member of the imperial court with 2,000 stones, so he should be invited first, how can he kill it without permission!" So Liu Quyu released Tian Ren.
When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard this, he was furious, arrested and punished Violent Shengzhi, and asked him: "Si Zhi let go of the rebel, and the prime minister killed him, it was to enforce the laws of the country, why did you stop it?" "Panic and panic, he committed suicide and died. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Zongzheng Liu Chang and Zhijin Wu Liu Dare to carry the emperor's edict to take back the empress's seal and ribbon, and Empress Wei committed suicide.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed that Ren An was an old official, and when he saw the war, he wanted to sit and watch the success or failure, and see who won the victory, and he had two hearts for the imperial court, so he beheaded Ren An and Tian Ren together. Jingjian, a man from Chang'an, followed Ma Tong, captured Shi De, and named him Dehou; Shang Qiucheng fought hard, captured Zhang Guang, and made him the marquis. Liu Ju's guests were all executed because they had entered and exited the palace gate; Anyone who followed Liu Ju to send troops to rebel will be exterminated according to the crime of rebellion; Officials and soldiers at all levels who were not coerced by Liu Ju out of their own intentions were all exiled to Dunhuang County. Because Liu was on the run, he began to set up garrison troops at the gates of Chang'an...
Emperor Wu of Han was extremely angry, and his ministers felt worried and frightened, and they didn't know what to do. The third elder of Huguan ordered Gu Mao to write to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and said: "I have heard that the father is like the sky, the mother is like the earth, and the son is like all things in the heaven and the earth, so only when the heavens are calm and the earth is safe, can all things flourish; Only with father's kindness and mother's love can sons be filial. Now the crown prince is the legitimate heir of the Han Dynasty, and will inherit the great cause of eternity, carry out the great trust of the ancestors, and be the eldest son of the emperor in terms of relationship. Jiang Chong was originally a commoner, but he was just a slave in the market, but His Majesty respected him, let him take the supreme order to persecute the crown prince, gather a group of treacherous villains, and defraud, frame, persecute and frame the crown prince, so that His Majesty and the prince's father-son relationship was blocked. The crown prince could not meet the emperor in person, and when he retreated, he was troubled by the framing of the rebellious ministers, he was wronged alone, had nowhere to appeal, and couldn't help but feel resentful, and killed Jiang Chong, but he was afraid that the emperor would be guilty and was forced to flee. As the son of His Majesty, the crown prince embezzled his father's army just to save himself from being framed by others, and the minister did not think that there was any sinister intention. The Book of Songs says: 'Green flies come and go on the fence, and the humble gentleman does not believe in slander.' Otherwise, the slander will be endless, and there will be great chaos in the world. In the past, Jiang Chong once killed Prince Zhao with slander, and everyone in the world knew about it. Now, without investigation, Your Majesty has excessively rebuked the Prince, and in a furious rage, he has sent a large army to pursue the Prince, and ordered the Prime Minister to personally command, so that the wise do not dare to speak, and the eloquent can hardly open their mouths, and I really regret it in my heart. I hope that Your Majesty will relax your mind, calm down, don't be harsh on your relatives, don't be angry about the prince's mistakes, immediately end the conquest of the prince, and don't let the prince flee for a long time! With my devotion to Your Majesty, I am ready to sacrifice my short life to be guilty outside the Jianzhang Palace. The chapter was handed over, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was moved and woke up when he saw it, but he had not yet publicly issued a pardon.
Liu Ju fled east to Huxian and hid in Quanjiu. The owner's family was poor, and he often knitted and sold straw sandals to support Liu Ju. Liu Ju had a former acquaintance who lived in Hu County, and when he heard that he was very rich, Liu Ju sent someone to call him, so the news leaked. In August Xinhai (the eighth day of the first lunar month), the magistrate rounded up Liu Ju. Liu estimated that it would be difficult for him to escape, so he returned to the house, closed the door, and hanged himself. Among the soldiers who came to search for him, there was a man named Zhang Fuchang from Shanyang, who kicked open the door with his foot. Xin'an County ordered Shi Li Shou to run forward and hug Liu Ju and untie him. The master fought and died in a fight with the person who searched for Liu Ju, and the two emperors and grandsons were also killed. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was saddened by the death of Liu Ju, so he named Li Shou as the marquis and Zhang Fuchang as the title marquis.
In the third year of Zhenghe (90 B.C.), officials and people accused each other of witchcraft crimes, and after investigation, it was found that most of them were untrue.
