Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mountain Rain is Coming

Lu Pheasant still remembers that in the previous life's "Edict on the Establishment of Wu Zhaoyi as the Empress", he cited the precedent of the Western Han Dynasty Empress Wang Zhengjun as the foundation for the establishment of the posterior, "The holy feelings, every time I admire, I will be given by the Wu family, and I can be established as the queen with the same political monarch."

Wang Zhengjun was the empress of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, but he came from the harem of his father, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.

Unlike Wu Zhaoyi, Wang Zhengjun was personally assigned by Emperor Xuan to Emperor Liu Zheng [shì] of the Han Yuan Dynasty, who was the crown prince at the time, and by virtue of the successful birth of a son, his maiden family ascended to the sky step by step, becoming a family of relatives who leaned towards the government and the opposition and covered the sky with one hand.

In retrospect, although the metaphor in the edict is to beautify her experience of serving the first emperor and accompanying the new monarch into the same story of the first emperor's marriage as Wang Zhengjun, the mention of Wang Zhengjun's name is also quite a prophecy.

For this, she is not ungrateful to Gaozong Li Zhi.

Even if it was just to use each other, at least, among the many choices in front of her at that time, Li Zhi provided a shortcut that would save her the most effort.

She climbed out of the quagmire with a breath, walking higher and higher, getting brighter and brighter, but she didn't expect to see the mountains at a glance in the end.

By the way, the famous Wang Zhengjun also has an even better nephew named Wang Mang;

It's a pity that among the heirs of his own samurai family, he has not been able to give birth to a young man who can be compared.

According to records, the nephews and nephews of the Lu family are not only scarce, but also indecisive and pampered, and none of them are of great use.

Lu Pheasant showed a wry smile, in history, whether it was her eldest brother Lu Ze's son Lu Chan, or the second brother Lu Shizhi's son Lu Lu, they were at a loss and lost ground when they first encountered an accident, just like a pair of pampered canary brothers.

This led to the fact that in just one month after Lu Pheasant's death, the Lu family suddenly collapsed like a building, leaving only her sister Lu Huan [xū], who was as wise as a torch, suffering alone.

Right now, these two nephews, plus the nephew Fan Yan born to Lu Huan and Fan Xu, are still young, I don't know if they still have time to turn the tide?

Don't ask them to change their lives against the sky, at the very least, they must have the judgment and wisdom to save their lives in the midst of great changes.

and Lu Yuan, an eldest princess blinded by the so-called love, does she know that what awaits her is an abyss?

***

Lu Pheasant came out of his senses, woke up suddenly, and laughed at himself,

"Probably care, it's messy, I also know that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren.

The children's path will eventually have to be walked on their own.

If Lu Yuan doesn't want to become me in the end, I hope she can be like you. ”

Resolute has a resolute way of living, supple has a supple way out, if she can have your wisdom to judge the situation, she can also have the last laugh.

"The queen praised falsely, what kind of ability does the concubine have, it is nothing more than asking for peace in the great waves of the world."

Bo Ji said modestly, and then said seriously,

"I know, you and Sister Lu Xiao always look at Lu Yuan stupidly, afraid that she will be coaxed.

But after I have been in contact with it for half a year, I feel that this child is wise and foolish.

As long as she is not confined to that little love between men and women, her world is vast in the future, and she may not lose to the queen. ”

Lu Pheasant glanced at Bo Ji quickly, the girl in front of her was so thoughtful, ruthless, and wise in handling things, she didn't lose to herself at all, no wonder she could teach a Ming Jun like Emperor Liu Heng of the Han Dynasty.

"If you want, can you help me persuade Lu Yuan.

It's not that she is persuaded not to marry, it is probably too late now, she is bent on being the queen of Zhao......"

Lu Pheasant recalled the end of his previous life, which was almost betrayed and separated from his relatives, and felt that he probably needed to ask Bo Ji for advice on raising children.

Although Liu Heng also killed his uncle in the end, it was a generation of famous monarchs who killed their relatives righteously, which was different from ordinary cannibalism.

"I know that it is to persuade her to see more and talk less when she encounters trouble, not to blindly follow gullibility, and to leave a way out for herself, right?

Well, if the queen doesn't dislike the concubine's little knowledge, the concubine will go with you to see the princess. ”

***

A few days later, Lu Pheasant went to the forbidden middle school to discuss the wedding with Liu Ji, which happened to be Zhang Liang's presence and had just sent a letter to the emperor about Ma Zheng.

Sure enough, as Zhang Liang expected, Liu Ji did not agree to his request to go to the pastoral garden of the northwest border county to inspect it.

"Raising horses is a priority, a top priority, and you're right.

It's just that the counties of Longxi are too bitter, and I can't bear to let you go back and forth. ”

Liu Ji gently rested Jian Mu on the couch, noncommittal.

"The minister is old, the oil is exhausted, the old eyes are dizzy, since he arrived in Luoyang, he has coughed day and night, and he really can't cope with the redundant government affairs.

Maybe you can go to Longxi to blow the wind, but it can be better. ”

Longxi is a border place, close to the desert controlled by the Huns, and Zhao State, Yan State is at the corner, this year is destined to be an eventful autumn, Zhang Liang is going, isn't there any deep meaning?

Liu Ji looked at Zhang Liang with a smile, silent, his brain was running fast, and he couldn't guess the mind of the thin and dry old man in front of him.

Seeing this, Lu Pheasant stepped forward, leaned over to pick up the music, browsed through the ten lines at a glance, and suddenly smiled warmly,

"Mrs. Zhang has always been good at Huang Lao's way, emphasizing a quiet residence and qi, I'm afraid you don't want to go to Kunlun Mountain and cultivate to become an immortal, right?

Your Majesty, in my opinion, Longxi is vast and sparsely populated, and the pastures are in ruins, so it is urgent to take a good inventory.

Right now, although Xiahou Ying is a servant and is in charge of a country's carriages and horses, at this time, he must not leave Luoyang——"

Speaking of this, Lu Pheasant raised his eyes, and his sharp gaze was directly opposite to Liu Ji.

Liu Ji seemed to be on her mind, and nodded unconsciously.

"-Therefore, Taifu Laocheng is serious, if he is willing to take over this important task for the country, it is commendable."

Seeing the changes of Yan Wang Zang Di and the mountain rain coming, Liu Ji had already begun to arrange his troops, Liu Jing went to the Huns, Zhang Cang was Zhao Xiang, Zhang Ao was a horse, every step, every person, was a chess piece skillfully arranged by him.

With Liu Ji's temperament of loving and leading the crowd to conquer, at this time, it is impossible to let the loyal Xiao Xiahou Ying go to Longxi to count horses.

"Oh, yes, I forgot, you're still thinking about becoming an immortal, haha.

In that case, let's make a hard trip.

By the way, your son Zhang Budo, I remember that he is a clear-headed and very talented.

Bring him here another day, and be an official by my side first. ”

"Minister, Commander, Thanks." Zhang Liang bowed deeply to thank the emperor.

***

Later that day, Liu Fei, the emperor's eldest son, was summoned into the forbidden by Liu Ji alone for the first time.

Since entering Luoyang, Liu Fei has no errands, and only reciting some classics with his uncles and grandsons every day with other princes, and has nothing to do the rest of the time, so he has to ask a group of gentlemen to ride and shoot on the outskirts of the city.

Liu Ji first asked about his homework, then nodded and said,

"Forgive me for being suffocated in the city, would you like to go for a walk outside Luoyang City and have some experience?"

Liu Fei's heart was pounding, knowing that his father was going to arrange important things for himself, he hurriedly knelt down and bowed to the ground.

"The son is willing to serve his father and the emperor, no matter the ends of the world, he will be sent by his father."

"What the end of the world, not so far, you get up and talk." Liu Ji pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled,

"If you are not afraid of hardship, then I happen to have an envoy from the west for you."
