[Vol. 1] Verse 150: Gongsun Hong and the Lord Father

------------

Gongsun Hong became the number one leader of the imperial court at a young age, but everyone knows that Liu Che's number one is not so easy, judging from the endings of the previous prime ministers, this position is definitely hot, either being beaten to ashes, or being driven away inexplicably.

Gongsun Hong is self-aware, he knows that he has neither a noble background, nor great merit, and it is not a long-term solution to ascend to the throne just by relying on the emperor's temporary preferences.

Therefore, Gongsun Hong always adheres to the above meaning as a standard of doing things, in the court, Gongsun Hong rarely speaks, to avoid conflicts with colleagues, once it involves a short and long topic, it is placed on the occasion of a separate meeting with Liu Che before speaking. It should be said that Gongsun Hong understood Liu Che's psychology, and in this way, his image in Liu Che's heart became a loyal and capable minister.

Ji Huang once ruthlessly exposed Gongsun Hong's hypocrisy, Liu Che summoned Gongsun Hong to confront him, Gongsun Hong was not in a hurry and made Ji Huang embarrassed with just a few words. Ji Di was helpless, and could only sigh that others had lived for decades longer, and Jiang was still old and spicy!

Gongsun Hong also had a time of frustration, and this time he met the same big red man in front of the emperor, the master of the middle doctor who everyone feared. The master father is not only powerful, but also the pen is also powerful, his twists and turns Liu Che must read every article, if he is accidentally targeted, a report letter will go up, and you will be sure that someone will be on the ground, you don't even have room to refute, like Yan King Liu Dingguo died under his report, and Yan Guo has been removed from this country.

Someone reminded the master that you are too crossy, but the master father disagreed, saying that I have been poor all my life, my parents do not recognize me, my brothers and sisters are alienated from me, and the guests have abandoned me.

Of course, the master father has the confidence to be horizontal, in fact, among the civil officials, his brain is easy to use, he supported Empress Wei, and came up with a tui en order for Liu Che, which can report illegality.

The position of the master father Yan as the middle doctor, which is very important in the inner court that Liu Che strives to build, and Gongsun Hong, as the prime minister, is an indispensable executive body, the master father Yan and Gongsun Hong are one inside and one outside, according to Gongsun Hong's principle of doing things, the two are irrelevant, and there will be no conflict.

In the second year of Yuan Shuo, the two had a rare quarrel, but the two had a rare quarrel, and the reason was also mentioned before, that is, whether to establish Shuofang County. The master father Yan put forward the idea of establishing Shuofang County and managing it, but Gongsun Hong strongly opposed it, thinking that increasing the number of counties and people would consume national strength, and everyone was doing well now. Why bother raising more people.

Gongsun Hong, who is good at figuring out the holy will, is confused this time, in order to suppress the arrogance of the lord father, he seems to have forgotten that Liu Che is only in his old age, for such an emperor who is eloquent and happy, expanding the territory is inevitable and the only choice.

Liu Che did not refute Gongsun Hong on the spot, this old man was so persistent that he was also the first time to see, in order to take into account the overall situation, Liu Che specially sent someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion after the next dynasty, and explained the pros and cons of the establishment of Shuofang County to Gongsun Hong, that posture was like a conscientious gentleman teaching an ignorant schoolboy who had just entered the school, so that Gongsun Hong lost face, and finally forced Gongsun Hong to agree to the establishment of Shuofang County, and said words of self-blame against his will.

Afterwards, Gongsun Hong settled the account on the head of the master father, and once he had the opportunity, he would attack the master father like killing Guo Jie, and he believed that this day would come soon.

We all know that the lord father is quite wise, that is, he is a little more horizontal, and he is no less than anyone else in the efficiency of collecting money, and there are many princes in the court, and the officials are afraid of the lord and the father, so in order to be safe, they can only take the initiative to bribe the lord father, and the lord father does not refuse.

The main father wanted to marry his daughter into the royal family, trying to be a backer, he picked and chosen, and finally finalized Liu Cichang, the king of Qi, but the king of Qi and the Empress Dowager Ji of Qi refused the proposal of the main father, which made the main father very annoyed.

The master father Yan found an opportunity to make a statement to Liu Che, proposing that Qi was a big country and should be the emperor's own brother or son as the king.

Seeing Liu Che's head repeatedly, the master father knew that the emperor had agreed to rectify the Qi country, and now he gave a reason, "I heard that the king of Qi has incest, and he should take the opportunity to rectify it." ”

What else is there to say about this, Liu Che immediately appointed the master father Yan as Qi Xiang and went to Qi to find out the truth.

The master's father arrived in Qi with a sense of revenge, and his family heard that the master's father had returned to his hometown with honor, and they specially greeted him thousands of miles away.

When the master father saw these familiar strangers, he felt bad in his heart, and when he remembered the time when he didn't want to see him, a trace of desolation came to his heart.

He gathered everyone together, ordered someone to take out five hundred gold, and threw it to the ground in the consternation of everyone, everyone looked at each other, and the master said, "When I was young, you all looked down on me, and now that I am promoted, you have traveled a thousand miles to meet me, and we still have a little friendship, and I can't say it without saying anything, you just picked up the gold, and we have broken off relations since then!" ”

After that, he brushed his sleeves away, leaving everyone sighing.

The first thing the master father did when he was in office was to arrest all the guards and maids of the Qi Palace, and strictly interrogate the King of Qi for his illegal crimes.

When Liu Cichang, the king of Qi, heard the god of wind, his eyes were worried, and in despair, he could only commit suicide in fear of sin.

The master father finally let out a bad breath, but I am afraid he would never have dreamed that he would be stabbed in the back for the common thing that it was common for him to be sued.

The news of King Qi's death reached the ears of King Zhao, and when the lord's father came to Zhao to seek a bowl of rice, King Zhao did not treat him and drove him out of Zhao State. Since the death of the master father Yan Wang, King Zhao has long been afraid of the master father, worried that one day the master father Yan will remember the old things and denounce him, he has a hatred for the master father, and secretly collects the guilt of the master father, but because the master father Yan is in Chang'an, he does not dare to play. Now that King Qi has also been forced to die, if he doesn't make a move, maybe he will be next. Instead of sitting and waiting to be killed, it is better to take advantage of the absence of the master father in Chang'an.

King Zhao hurriedly wrote a letter and sent someone to the capital quickly.

After all, to impeach the emperor and the red man in front of him, he also took a great risk, if he couldn't kill him, according to the personality of the master's father, then King Zhao's death time would come.

The master's father was stabbed in the back, but he didn't know it.

Even if the master father Yan knew, he was not worried that someone would follow him, because he thought that the emperor used his talent, not his character.

In fact, it can indeed be said that a letter is not enough to kill the master's father, but he ignores that the old man Gongsun who is hiding in the shadows has long been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on the master's father, and he is not so easy to deal with.
