To the south is to be the emperor.

The ancients spoke so vaguely.

There is no doubt that Liu He certainly wants to be the emperor.

Who can resist the temptation of power, especially as a modern person who has traveled back in time to ancient times.

Liu He has always been very careful and rarely reveals his thoughts directly and clearly to others.

In a few days, the edict to summon himself to Chang'an arrived.

For Wang Shi, Liu He decided not to hide it anymore.

He took a deep breath, calmed down, and said generously: "Wang Fu is right, the widow wants to be the emperor in the south. ”

"But today's county officials are in the prime of life, and there are not many things that widows can do, Yin Zhijian is especially not far away, and the blood of Yan Wangdan and Shangguan's family has not yet dried up."

"The widow has rarely left Changyi in the past few years, and he has not secretly communicated with the important ministers of the court, not to mention, the widow is alone, and the mother family is gone, even if you want to face the south, I am afraid it is not an overnight thing."

"I didn't hesitate to find out that Tian in such a big way, I just wanted to see who could be used in this Changyi country."

In the end, Liu He's face not only flashed a trace of sadness.

In fact, Liu He's maternal family was also prominent.

Liu He's grandmother was Emperor Xiaowu's favorite Mrs. Li in his later years.

She also has two elder brothers, one is Li Yannian, the commander of the Xielu Commander, and the other is Li Guangli, the general of the Second Division.

It is said that Li Yannian has a pleasing appearance, can sing and dance, and is deeply loved by Emperor Xiaowu, and the relationship between the two is indescribable.

Although Li Guangli, the general of the Second Division, was mediocre, he was at least the head of the army.

If you don't die, then you can become the help of King Changyi in the court.

However, Liu He's uncle Li Guangli did not hold back.

Unexpectedly, after the Witch Gu Rebellion, he couldn't wait to secretly collude with Zuo Prime Minister Liu Quyu, and wanted to set up his nephew Liu Ji as the prince.

This touched the reverse scale of Emperor Xiaowu.

After the matter was accidentally revealed, Emperor Xiaowu was furious and ordered the prime minister Liu Quyu to be beheaded.

Li Guangli was leading troops to recruit the Xiongnu at that time, and after learning the news, in order to make meritorious service to the crime, he actually advanced with his division, resulting in the annihilation of the whole army, and finally had to surrender to the Xiongnu, and finally died in the hands of Wei Lu.

Li Guangli fled, and the Li family was all executed.

In fact, if Li Guangli comes back and pleads guilty, he may not be implicated.

After all, with Emperor Xiaowu's favor for Mrs. Li and Li Yannian, Liu Ji's throne was not affected in the end.

However, history cannot repeat itself.

Under the operation of Li Guangli, the cheating father's uncle, Liu He actually didn't have any chips in his hand that could be put on the table.

Liu He is an orphan in this big man, an orphan like a fake orphan.

So what he said just now, Liu He said it frankly, and the sad expression on his face was not all pretended.

Even Wang Shi, who is in his last years, and the old Confucian who is accustomed to seeing the shadow of swords and swords, is a little moved.

After a long time, Wang Shicai sighed and said earnestly: "The old minister arrived in this Changyi Palace in the twentieth year, the former king at that time was as big as the current highness, and because of the matter of the prince, he lived in fear all day long, otherwise he would not have died of depression so early. ”

"Although the old man has lived in Changyi for a long time, he is not a rotten Confucian who buries his head in the pile of old papers, and he can also see the treacherous clouds in the court."

"More than 100 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty, for the chair in Chang'an, I don't know how many clan relatives and nobles have died and the clan has been wiped out."

"Although the county officials have no heirs now, and Emperor Xiaowu's bloodline is not prosperous, the old minister has watched His Highness grow from a babbling baby to a young man today, so he is actually more willing to see His Highness be a prince and king peacefully."

"Instead of getting involved in the chaos in Chang'an."

"Therefore, that day, I heard that His Highness had the intention of facing south, so I always wanted to persuade His Highness again."

Wang Shi said a lot, and in the end, his cloudy eyes seemed to be red.

Liu He just listened to the teacher's words quietly and did not make any rebuttals.

If there is no ambition, although the princes and kings of the Han Dynasty have less freedom, they are still very comfortable in material life.

Taste the world's delicacies, drink fine wine, and then find a few orchids of different ethnic groups from the Western Regions and give birth to more than a dozen children, which may not be a comfortable life.

At the beginning, Liu He also thought about not going to Chang'an to sit on that chair.

But then he figured out that the strife of the Heavenly Family was not something he could avoid if he wanted to.

With the blood of Gaozu in his body, he must participate in this game of thrones.

The king of Changyi in history was later demoted to the Marquis of Haidu, and didn't he live a life of fear and treading on thin ice?

No matter how benevolent a monarch is, he will not be merciful to those who are potentially threatened.

As the senior librarian said: this is your life-and-death struggle!

What's more, Huo Guangxuan himself, didn't he just see that he was weak?

"The disciple understands the good intentions of the king master, and the disciple assures the king that unless the destiny of heaven comes, he will never dare to be delusional, let alone act rashly."

Liu He didn't want to deceive too much, so he didn't say it to death.

He thought that Wang Shi would persuade himself again, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to be very calm.

Wang Shi nodded, and finally said no more.

Wang Shike looked at the "Book of Songs" on the case, and then savored His Highness's words, he was still a little uneasy.

This is the end of the hour's morning class.

After the master and apprentice bowed goodbye, they left the Rizhi Hall separately.

Wang Shi left Changyi Palace and returned directly to his own mansion.

He didn't eat, but locked himself in the study of the flower hall where he killed Xia Houping.

The bloody qi has long since dissipated, but the killing intent is still there.

He first took out a dozen one-foot-square plain silks from the bookshelf, placed them on the table, and prepared pen and ink before sitting down.

At this time, although the Han Dynasty already had paper, the quality was not good and it was not suitable for writing, so it had not yet been popularized.

Write letters, either with simple slips or with plain silk.

The price of plain silk is not cheap, it costs thirty or forty yuan to see a square foot, not to mention ordinary people, even officials like Wang Shi rarely use it.

However, compared with bamboo slips, plain silk can be folded for easy storage.

Naturally, it is best used to write MeMessage.

Wang Shi used the pen to absorb the ink, and after pondering for a long time, he finally started writing.

"Anqing my disciple: I have been separated for 12 years, I don't know if I can be fine, I know that the gentleman is too Zhu Cheng's affairs are heavy, but I have something to ask for for the teacher......"

"Unyielding disciple: Seventeen years of farewell, I don't know if I can be fine, I know that the gentleman advises the doctor and the affairs are heavy, but there is something to ask for for the teacher......"

"Worry-free apprentice: I have been separated for 20 years, I don't know if I can be fine, I know that the affairs of the monarch and the guard are heavy, but I have something to ask for for the teacher......"

……

Wang Ji wrote more than a dozen secret letters in one go, each of which could almost wipe out the Wang family.

However, he had to make some arrangements for His Highness in advance.

Lao Confucian lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of students.

After being a teacher all their lives, who doesn't have a few trustworthy students?

Jiuqing didn't, but there were still some officials with 600 stones and more than 1,000 stones.

Wang Shi is old, but not faint.

In fact, this old Confucian is staring at the court situation all the time.

He now understands that the destiny has not yet arrived, and he must remind His Highness to be cautious; As soon as the mandate of heaven arrives, I will help His Highness ascend the throne.

This is a qualified king.

If you just blindly persuade Your Highness not to have any wrong thoughts, you are a pedantic nerd, and your brain is afraid that it will not be eaten by moths.

In the past few years, Wang Shi has been secretly collecting news about Chang'an.

Empress Shangguan is less than fifteen years old, and she has not yet reached the best age to give birth to an imperial heir.

Therefore, when Wang Shi heard that the general forced them to wear inconvenient poor clothes in order to prevent other people in the harem from giving birth to heirs, he was keenly aware that the Mandate of Heaven was actually moving closer to the Changyi State - although the Son of Heaven was in the prime of life, his health had not been good, and Huo Guang had persecuted the Son of Heaven so much in order to abuse power, and the Son of Heaven was afraid that the Son of Heaven would ......

Once the Son of Heaven is great and has no heirs, there are not many candidates for the clan who can inherit the unification.

The king of Changyi should be within the scope of consideration - provided that the title of Liu Xu, the king of Guangling, is denied first.

It's not impossible to happen.

It's just that I'm old, and I can't accompany His Highness to Chang'an anymore.

I hope that these students can contribute to His Highness.
