Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 172 The world has been bitter for a long time
When Cao Can hurried into the Xuanshi Hall, the ministers were already kneeling on both sides, all bowing their heads, Liu Ying sat in the upper seat angrily, her eyes full of anger.

"Your Majesty! Why did you arrest the Marquis of Piyang and the Marquis of Tujun?"

"Why doesn't Cao Xiang continue drinking?!"

Liu Ying asked angrily.

Cao Can was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My minister drinks alcohol. If Your Majesty wants to blame, you can punish one of your ministers. Why should you punish others?"

"Come on! Bring me the trial food!!!"

When the two armored soldiers dragged Chen Shiqi to the temple, the ministers couldn't bear it. At this moment, when Chen Shiqi was beaten, his skin was ripped open, and he was dying. It was extremely miserable. Seeing him like this, Cao Can asked angrily: "Your Majesty! What is the crime of the trial?!"

"I ordered Shenshi to come, and Shenshi bought his valet, and refused on the grounds that he was unwell, but in fact, he was drinking in the mansion. Dare to ask Cao Prime Minister, what is the crime of Shenshi?!"

Cao Can did not hesitate, and said coldly, "Death!"

"Come on, drag it down!"

Liu Ying looked at Prime Minister Cao again, "I ordered Prime Minister Cao to come, but Prime Minister Cao refused, so I sent an envoy to go there again, Prime Minister Cao beat my messenger, what crime is this?!"

"capital offense."

"Come on, take him down!"

"His Majesty!!"

The ministers could no longer sit still, and hurriedly stood up to intercede. Zhou Bo was the first to say, "Cao Xiang is not an angel, but his son!"

"Captain, there are [-] crossbows missing in the arsenal. Why is this?"

"The king of Tang sent his own soldiers to come to ask for it and give it to him."

"Three hundred powerful crossbows, don't you need to tell me, you can give them to the king at will?! Come on, take him down too!"

The ministers were terrified, what does this mean?Do you want to catch all the ministers clean?Is this still our god?
Looking at the frightened ministers in front of him, Liu Ying looked at Chen Ping and said, "Zhonglang Ling, these people will be handed over to you, pursue their crimes, and don't show favoritism!"

Chen Ping got up and said calmly, "Wei."

There was no anger on the faces of Cao Can and Zhou Bo, Cao Can always had a straight face, but Zhou Bo was thoughtful.

On this day, the emperor suddenly became stronger. He successively arrested Neishi, Tingwei, Prime Minister, Taipucheng, Taiwei and many others, and threw them all into the Tingwei prison when Liu Bang was there. This is what Liu Ying did. He directly ordered the Southern Army to impose martial law in the city, and ordered Chen Ping to strictly investigate the officials.
The ministers were naturally uneasy, but they did not dare to get together to discuss, so they had to go to the Jiaofang Hall and beg the Queen Mother to dissuade Her Majesty.

His Majesty is simply out of his mind, even the Prime Minister and the Grand Lieutenant will be arrested!
When Shusuntong cried in front of the queen mother, Empress Lu was also full of surprise.

She really didn't expect that the son who wanted to come here would have the courage to arrest Cao Can and Zhou Bo? ?She didn't dare to make an order, but Liu Ying dared? ?

The Queen Mother pondered and said, "I will persuade Your Majesty. His Majesty is not a brutal person. If you do this, there must be some misunderstanding."

Uncle Sun Tong was overjoyed. He knew that as long as the Queen Mother spoke, His Majesty would not continue to investigate like this. You must know that Chen Ping is really not a good thing, he is really investigating!Never fooling around, arresting as soon as you say it, regardless of human feelings, in one day, even six ministers were arrested, and Tingwei's prison was almost a palace of Xuanshi!

Shusuntong is not afraid of being arrested. Shusuntong has never done anything to fool the emperor or condone his subordinates to do evil. He has very high requirements for himself and his disciples, and he admits that he has never done a single wrong thing. , He was worried that if things went on like this, there would be chaos in Chang'an.

The present His Majesty is not the first emperor. If a great change is aroused, can he hold it back?

The Empress Dowager appeased Uncle Sun Tong, and asked him to go out and tell the ministers not to worry. As soon as Uncle Sun Tong left, Liu Chang smiled and rushed to Empress Lv's side.

"How is it? Mom! I didn't lie to you, it only took me two days to make my second brother look like a real emperor!"

Empress Lu stared at him, "I asked you to bring your brother's knowledge, not to let you turn your brother into a tyrant, how dare you let him arrest the prime minister and the captain?! You know how much trouble this will cause. ?"

"If you want to kill the chickens to warn the monkeys, then go and catch a few chickens! Are you trying to kill the monkeys to show the chickens?"

Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Mum, this time, you really blamed me. It wasn't my idea at all, it was all done by my brother."

Empress Lu's eyes widened, "How dare your brother have such courage?"

"Hahaha, grandma, brother, he is very kind. Once he finds out that the ministers ignore the pain of the people and even persecute the people, he is even more irritable than me, so I showed him the true face of the ministers, brother. I can't take it anymore, if I hadn't stopped him, he would have almost cut the corpse into five pieces."

"What did Tai Pucheng do?"

"A total of 16 women were occupied and forced to kill three of them."

"Then you shouldn't stop your brother."

"I'm mainly afraid that he won't be able to hold back, and they will also give points together with Xuanyi"

Empress Lv pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "Even so, you shouldn't arrest Cao for participating in Zhou Bo, especially Zhou Bo, he is deeply rooted in the Northern Army, if you want to deal with him, you must be prepared first, not reckless. I have to go find Ying."

"Mother!!"

Liu Chang jumped in front of Empress Lu, stretched out his hand, and blocked her, "This time, it was the elder brother who made up his mind and decided to do what he wanted, and finally made it tough once, don't talk to him, let him Go do it yourself! Mom, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, an opportunity to completely change my brother, and absolutely must not interfere with his decision!"

Empress Lu hesitated, "If I want to deal with others, I will not stop it, but there are too many people involved."

Liu Chang said seriously: "Mom, don't worry, I have already made preparations. I have dispatched Zhang Budo and Li Zuoche to take their own soldiers to Tang country."

"Soon, Li Zuoche will take Tang's army and practice around Hedong. If there is a change in Chang'an, Tang's army will come in. The southern army will only obey his brother. The northern army can beat the southern army and our Tang army. Army?"

"Jibu is at his uncle's side at the moment. I have already explained it. If there is a change in the city, my uncle will be stationed in the palace, and Chen Ping will fight against the northern army, waiting for the Tang army to come."

"you!!"

Empress Lu was stunned. She didn't like this feeling very much. This kind of thing was beyond her control. She said angrily: "The king's army is training around Chang'an, do you want to rebel?!"

"I rebel?! If I don't obey the emperor's orders and openly beat the emperor's messenger, that's called treason! As long as I, Chang Liu, are still alive, no one would dare to treat my brother like this!! He has [-] northern troops. [-] troops have been mobilized!! The ministers who don’t obey the emperor’s edict, what’s the use of keeping them! Kill them clean!!”

Liu Chang growled angrily.

Empress Lu quickly calmed down, "Does your brother know?"

"Of course I do! I'm here to seek thieves!"

"I think you are the biggest thief!"

Empress Lu scolded and shouted again: "You two Shuzi! Shuzi! How can you do such a thing! Shuzi!"

Empress Lu glared at Liu Chang and scolded: "If your army dares to take a step closer to Chang'an, I will first punish you, the traitor! Did you hear that?!"

Liu Chang grinned, "With my mother here, I can't fight."

"Okay. So you're waiting for me here. Your wings are hardened, Liu Chang, you and Liu Ying even took advantage of me, right?"

"This is my brother's plan!"

"Fuck! You. You wait, wait until I'm done!"

Empress Lv left Jiaofang Palace angrily, and Chang Liu also left Jiaofang Palace afterwards. Empress Lv went to gather the ministers, while Chang Liu went to Ganquan Palace to find Liu Ying.

Seeing Chang Liu coming, Liu Ying grabbed his arm and dragged him in front of her, "What did Grandma say?"

"Hey, who is Grandma, how could she not understand? Of course she went to the ministers."

Liu Chang complained again: "Brother, this time for you, I'm going to be beaten badly, and my mother is furious."

"Alas," Liu Ying let out a long sigh, and then said resentfully, "I would rather be a cruel and unfilial tyrant than a foolish emperor who allows the people to suffer and the ministers to fool!"

Liu Chang's eyes lit up, "Well said!"

"Brother, it's just my sister-in-law's place"

"No problem, this time, I must properly punish these ministers in the country! My father was right at the beginning, but he had to whip them from time to time, otherwise, these people would not take you seriously at all! Seriously!"

"Okay, since my brother has such courage, I will definitely help! It's not just me!"

"The eldest brother of Qi, the fourth brother of South Korea, the fifth brother of Liang, the sixth brother of Wu, and the father of Chu, all of us are on the side of the older brother. With us here, I want to see which one How dare the minister not take his brother seriously!"

"Okay! Our brothers are united, we must manage the big man!"

This time, Liu Ying showed her self-confidence, but she suddenly felt that something was wrong, so she added: "And your third brother of Zhao country!"

"No, King Zhao is cowardly by nature, double-sided, and treachery. The reason why I only summoned [-] Tang troops this time is because I am worried that King Zhao will collude with the traitor and stab me in the back of Tang."

Liu Ying shook her head with a wry smile, "You. But, Chang, you have to agree, you can't really fight."

"Second brother, then it's up to the ministers. If they accept it honestly, they will naturally not start a war. If they want to resist, then don't blame us."

When Liu Chang came out of the palace, Qun Xian stood in front of him.

Zhou Shengzhi's eyes were red and he looked very sad.

"Your Majesty, my grandfather has been arrested and sent to Tingwei!"

"What a big deal, why are you crying? How many times have we been in there? This is the first time for your father!"

Zhou Shengzhi shook his head and said sadly, "My grandmother cried all night, and this morning, she asked me to come and plead with the king."

Liu Chang looked around, "Go to the mansion and talk!"

Qunxian followed Liu Chang, and they came to Tang Wang's mansion together, and let the people stay in the courtyard. Liu Chang himself took Qunxian into the inner room, Liu Chang sat in the upper seat, and everyone sat on him. Liu Chang then said, "Don't worry, my brother is kind, your grandfather, nothing will happen."

"In addition, this is also our opportunity. Usually when we go to Tingwei, they always come to fish for people. This time, we can go and fish for them, so that we can repay their kindness of upbringing. How wonderful!"

Zhou Shengyi was stunned, and then asked: "But how do we get people? I heard that Tingwei has been imprisoned."

Xuan Moru nodded and said proudly, "My grandfather was locked in a long time ago, before your grandfather!"

"Nonsense, it was obviously my grandfather earlier!" Zhou Jian retorted angrily.

"Fart! It's my father-in-law!"

"Okay! Stop arguing!"

Liu Chang interrupted them and said, "Go back and comfort your grandmothers and tell them not to worry. Also, Tingwei will be out soon. When he comes out, this matter is almost over."

"Hmph, what if your grandfather was locked in first? It seems that my grandfather has been locked up for the longest time!" Zhou Jian said proudly, Zhou Shengzhi slammed him on the head and scolded: "You I wish my father would go to jail, right?"

Zhou Jian covered his head and looked at his elder brother aggrievedly, "Brother, but when Grandpa isn't around, we can go out and play at will."

Zhou Shengzhi's face was black, he resisted his anger and ignored this stupid younger brother.

Liu Chang continued: "This time, the fathers of Zhong were arrested because they were framed by traitors, so after you return to your mansion, you must keep an eye on everyone who goes to and from the mansion. If you encounter a suspicious person, Those who talk secretly, remember to come and tell me, I'm in the mansion and won't go out."

"Your Majesty, we understand!"

"Also, don't tell anyone what I said!"

"it is good!"

"As for Father Zhong's release from prison, as long as I speak to persuade them, His Majesty will definitely release them. Don't worry!"

Liu Chang was fooling Qun Xian here, while Empress Lv was fooling the ministers in the Hall of Changxin.

The ministers sat respectfully on both sides, including Chen Ping, who were also here.

Empress Lu sat in the upper seat, looked at the ministers, and sighed helplessly.

"I went to persuade Your Majesty, but, Your Majesty won't listen."

"what??"

The ministers were shocked, and the Queen Mother couldn't persuade them? ?Their eyes are full of disbelief. Even if His Majesty's temperament has changed drastically, he will not even ignore the Queen Mother.

Empress Lu said calmly, "I'm a woman, so I can't say much. But, something big is going to happen in Chang'an."

"Dare to ask the queen mother, what's the matter?"

"Judgment's deceitful deceit angered His Majesty, and His Majesty pursued the crimes of all the ministers. I think, His Majesty must have mistakenly thought that all the ministers deceived him, so he no longer listened to the persuasion of others, and what's more After the prime minister and the captain were arrested, someone said in the city: Your Majesty's move will bring disaster."

"His Majesty is furious, and ordered Tang, Liang, Han and other countries to prepare troops, and if there is any change in their words to the left and right, they should order the army of the four countries to enter Beijing to seek thieves!"

Hearing this sentence, Shu Suntong was so frightened that he couldn't say anything, "How is this good! How can the army of the outer king be allowed to enter the capital?!"

The ministers were naturally also frightened, and all of them turned pale with fright, and the queen mother sighed, "I have persuaded King Tang, otherwise, his army has already appeared outside Chang'an at this moment, and he actually called a hundred thousand troops, saying To purge Chang'an."

The ministers were in an uproar and hurriedly began to discuss.

Only Chen Ping sat on the side calmly without saying a word.

"The Queen Mother! Absolutely not! The army of the Tang Kingdom and the teachers of tigers and wolves are also ignorant of etiquette, let alone respect for the law. If they are allowed to enter the capital, it will be a huge disaster!!!"

"The Queen Mother, please dissuade Your Majesty!!"

Everyone played, and it could be seen that King Tang's hand really scared them, Empress Lu narrowed her eyes and said, "Is this my fault? Is this His Majesty's fault? This is all because The ministers deceive the king, only such a thing!"

"This matter was caused by the ministers, so naturally the ministers have to solve it!"

Empress Lu angrily reprimanded, got up and left.

Everyone looked at each other, Uncle Suntong couldn't say anything for a while, he hesitated for a long time, and finally came to Chen Ping's side, "Chen Hou, now your Majesty trusts only you, please persuade Your Majesty, even if your Majesty wants to execute the old minister, the old minister will never say anything, but the army of this foreign king will never enter Chang'an!"

A minister secretly said: "Tang State uses the system of violent Qin, and King Tang. King Tang is in Chang'an, and the traitors are messing with the government, and sooner or later, it will cause chaos!"

Everyone begged, but Chen Ping was still so calm, "I can't do anything about this matter. If you want to change His Majesty's mind, then we must apologize to His Majesty together, confess our previous mistakes, and ask His Majesty to forgive me. Tell the truth, Your Majesty may be able to forgive us, even if it is not as close as usual, there will be no more thoughts of attracting foreign troops."

"it is good!"

"Follow Chenhou's orders!"

Soon, the ministers walked into the Xuanshi Hall one by one, and every minister who entered, fell to the ground the first time they saw the emperor, and began to cry about their crimes, begging the emperor to forgive, and repeatedly promised never again. will do so.

Liu Ying's face was stern, listening to their words, he finally understood that the emperor couldn't always smile.

At this time, Empress Lu went to Tingwei prison again.

The ministers sitting here were very calm. Cao Can sat in the middle position and raised his head proudly. The ministers sat beside him and did not panic at all.

Seeing this scene, Empress Lu suddenly felt that Liu Chang did nothing wrong. These people were not afraid of Liu Ying at all. Even if Liu Ying locked them up, they were not afraid, because they knew that Liu Ying would not have the heart to put them away. If it was Liu Bang who sent them in, they might not be so calm.

Empress Lu walked in. Cao Can and others stood up to meet them. Seeing their calm expressions, Empress Lu suddenly had a nameless fire in her heart. Even on the bright side, you have to be afraid! !
"King Tang's army is heading towards Chang'an. When the army reaches Chang'an, His Majesty will interrogate the princes in the Xuanshi Hall."

"what?!"

At that moment, Cao Can could no longer maintain his original calm appearance, he rushed to the fence a few steps, his eyes widened, "Queen Mother! Queen Mother! How can you allow the army of the outer king to enter Chang'an!! This is self-defeating! !! Can't set such a precedent!!"

"I can't persuade Your Majesty. It seems that you are indeed very angry with Your Majesty."

Empress Lu said lightly, and turned to leave.

"Queen Mother! Don't go! I'm going to see Your Majesty!!"

"King Tang hides his evil intentions!! Tang's army can't enter Chang'an!! No way!!"

"Tang country up and down, they are all rebels!!"

Cao Can yelled, and nearly smashed the fence in front of him with his head.

Empress Lu suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at Cao Can, and asked coldly, "Those who are ordered to punish thieves are rebels, so what about those who lash out at angels??"

Cao Can was stunned, he grabbed the iron bars in front of him, "I want to see Your Majesty. You must not enter Chang'an."

Empress Lu didn't say anything, turned around and left here.

"Let me out! I'm going to see Your Majesty!!"

Empress Lv, who walked out of Tingwei, felt inexplicably comfortable. They were not afraid of Liu Ying, because Liu Ying was angry and couldn't do anything. However, Chang Liu could do it. At this time, Empress Lv once again remembered that Liu Bang wanted to What was said when Liu Chang was named King of Tang.

It can be the wings of the emperor.
