Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 366 Cherish Your Good Brother

"I let go and eat half a sheep!"

"I can drink until dawn! All night long!"

"I never read! I get a headache when I see a book! Every time I go out, I drive around the city!"

"I beat up the ministers in the country!"

"I'll do all kinds of evil! I target the young and the old!"

"I've never gone to worship my grandfather so much!"

Liu Xiang raised his head and looked at Liu Wei, who was a head taller than him. Neither of them had physical contact, but just bumped against each other with their chests. People began to compete for the title of Xiao Liu Chang, and no one would let anyone, and constantly contradicted with the chest. Liu Xiang was really not weak. He practiced swordsmanship since childhood, and his body was strong.

But every time Liu Wei bumped into him, he couldn't help but take a half step back. There was a brute force in front of him, and Liu Xiang couldn't fight him.

This makes Liu Xiang very depressed, why do I have no such strength?

The two were very incompatible, and the worst outcome that Zhou Chang expected came true. When the next generation of clan children had a very bad idol, their style of painting suddenly changed. Liu Chang relied on one person Zhili successfully brought down the style of the clan. Of course, because of Emperor Gao's credit, the style of the clan was not very good.

Just when the two were bumping into each other, Liu An, Liu Qi, and Liu Xian were surrounded by them, just quietly watching them quarrel.

Liu Xian asked in a low voice, "I'm afraid Big Brother is not his opponent, do you want to go together?"

Liu Qi frowned, pondered for a long time, and said, "After all, we are all relatives, blood is thicker than water, how can we fight in the same room? We have to support each other, absolutely not."

Liu Xian, who was already familiar with Liu Qi, said displeasedly, "Tell the truth!"

"His brother is the head of embroidery. Forget it..."

At this moment, the battle also entered the white-hot interface, Liu Xiang angrily scolded: "You fellow, you dare to be so arrogant after rebelling?"

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Yes! So I'm more like Father Zhong!"

Liu Xiang was silent for a while, what this fellow said makes sense! !
Seeing the two guys in front of him constantly ruining his grandfather's reputation, Liu An couldn't sit still, he motioned Qi and Xian to pull the two away, and said with a smile, "The king of Jiaoxi is talented, and the king of Hexi is brave. Upright, several kinds of fathers, but the reason why Your Majesty can get the respect of the world is not because of his own bravery, but because he can govern the country with heart and fight bravely outside."

"Father and father Zhu Zhong are close to each other, why did they quarrel like you do when they support each other?"

"Emperor Taishang and King Qi Miaoyi are very close. We get along like this."

Liu An shook his head gently, "No wonder they all say that we are far inferior to Father and the others."

When Liu An said this, Liu Ang immediately became angry and hurriedly asked, "Who said that?"

Liu An hesitated for a moment, as if he had remembered something, and said firmly: "It's exactly what Qu Nihou and his son said!"

The arrival of Liu Ang seems to be a good thing for Liu An, because Liu An has always wanted to let the princes of various countries go to Chang'an. He believes that this is the best way to increase the relationship. It cannot be said that the rebellion can be completely curbed. , can at least play a lot of roles.

As for Liu Chang, at this moment he began to meet the second prince, Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue.

As soon as Zhao Tuo sat down, he didn't even greet him, so he couldn't wait to ask: "I heard that King Jiaoxi is conspiring??"

The reason why Zhao Tuo is so attentive is because now everyone is a prince of the Han Dynasty. Every matter of a prince can affect the attitude and methods of the temple to treat the prince. Zhao Tuo has always been the first for state affairs and second for private affairs. In order to achieve great things, he will abandon all his feelings. For people like them, this cannot be regarded as a disadvantage. After all, an emperor also kicked his children off the carriage, which is the same reason.

Liu Chang shook his head and said, "King Jiaoxi took the army to drill in the country and broke into Jiaodong Kingdom, so he was arrested."

At this time, the princes and kings had military power. Liu Wei played whatever he wanted in Jiaoxi. He took the army to suppress bandits and went to the spring tour. No one cared about him, but he couldn't go out of the country. He took the army to go around, and as a result, he crossed the national border, and was immediately captured by the prime minister on the charge of treason and sent to Chang'an.

After learning the whole story, Zhao Tuo breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that some fool would disrupt the current situation. If he angered the person in front of him and started to cut the vassal, no one could stand it. However, this The princes of the Liu family, there are really many belligerents.

Since Emperor Gao, almost every generation has had at least one reckless man, a militant, and when the two Han Dynasties perished, there was also a small prince who liked to collect crossbows.

Only then did Zhao Tuo look at Liu Chang in front of him with a smile, and said, "Hahaha, you finally don't grow any longer!"

Liu Chang looked at the "little dwarf" in front of him with disdain, and said if he meant something; "This body is enough."

However, Zhao Tuo directly changed the subject. He looked at Liu Chang and asked curiously, "Are you one zhang tall?"

"Less than ten feet."

"I think it's almost there"

Zhao Tuo shook his head and couldn't help but sighed: "My body is more than eight feet tall, and I am so petite in front of you, you must be more than nine feet"

"You came all the way to find the widow just to talk about this?"

"No, it's just that His Majesty was enthroned, but the widow never came to see you. It's really inappropriate. Besides, I was in Nanyue, and I missed His Majesty a lot, and I always wanted to see you."

As Zhao Tuo said that, he was asked to take out the gift he had brought, which made Liu Chang's face look much better.

"How is the situation in South Vietnam?"

Zhao Tuo's lips trembled, "Fortunately, it's the prime minister and the imperial censor. It's a bit unreasonable."

"It's up to you, you have to curb the fight between the two and control the situation."

Zhao Tuo nodded, "That Chao Cuo is okay, that is Shen Tujia. This person is not easy to control, this person has been killed all the way from a soldier to where he is now, I am old, and it takes a little effort to subdue him. easy."

"Huh?? Let you control the situation, are you planning to control it by force?? No, their battle has already begun?"

"Oh, it's more than just doing it. The old man's palace was almost burned by them. Look at my beard, I have burned a lot."

Zhao Tuo finally talked about the purpose of this visit, "I came here in the hope that His Majesty can replace Shen Tujia or Chao Cuo. It is better to replace Shen Tujia. Chao Cuo is easy to deal with, Shen Tujia is this person. Ahhh."

Liu Chang was a little surprised this time. With Chao Cuo's noisy personality, Shen Tujia looked so honest and honest, how could it be more difficult to deal with?

Zhao Tuo gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Tujia seems to be simple and honest, but in fact he has too many thoughts. The surrendered ministers that His Majesty promised to arrange properly were executed by him for various reasons, and the rest were all in danger. I've been complaining to the widow all day long and wanting to escape."

Liu Chang nodded and stroked his beard lightly.

"Really?"

"Indeed."

Zhao Tuo then talked about other situations. Liu Chang vaguely felt that this guy came to Chang'an not because he was thinking of himself, but because he was fleeing. It seems that the two guys he arranged for Zhao Tuo tormented him a lot.

After all, Zhao Tuo was old. After chatting for a long time, he felt tired, so he left the hall with the support of the soldiers.

Before leaving, Zhao Tuo looked at Liu Chang again, looked at his Mianfu, and said with emotion, "This Mianfu is even more luxurious than what King Qin wore at the beginning."

After Liu Chang sent him away, he immediately called Zhang Budo to discuss countermeasures.

"I thought Zhao Tuo was a more reserved person, but I didn't expect that he also likes to brag."

Liu Chang shook his head and said to Zhang Budo with disdain: "When King Qin was still there, he was just an ordinary general, and he even told me that this Mian suit was more luxurious than King Qin's. It made him seem to have seen King Qin. "

Zhang Budo was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty. This fellow seems to have really met King Qin."

"Huh?? He's not a general, just an ordinary general. How can he be qualified to see King Qin?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that this person once followed the King of Qin to inspect the place."

"Oh groom?"

"I heard that it is to protect the safety of King Qin."

"Ah?? King Qin's guard??"

Liu Da was startled, but he quickly recovered and shook his head, "King Qin is bound by thousands of guards when he travels, so it's not worth mentioning."

"I heard that it is the first guard."

"No. Where did you hear these rumors? Just that little old man can still be the first guard for King Qin?"

"I remember that my father seemed to say"

When Zhang Budo heard that Zhao Tuo might be Liu Chang's grandfather, he believed it at the time.

Not only because Nanyue can help Tang Guo rebel, but also because of their looks and the amazing physique of the king. Emperor Gao does not have this feature at all. Among the people of the old Liu family, the most fierce and fierce are nothing more than King Liu Bi of Yan, and King Liu Ang of Jiaoxi are more capable of fighting, but Liu Chang's claim to be Xiang Yu's son is more credible.

Liu Bang is indeed not short. His height is seven feet eight inches, and his descendants generally fluctuate around this number, but Liu Chang is a bit unreasonable, but if you add Zhao Tuo, the first emperor's personal guard, the force value is explosive, and his height is eight. A fierce man with more than a foot, then it makes perfect sense.

However, Liu Chang didn't want to talk too much with Zhang Budo on these issues, he told Zhang Budo about Chao Cuo and Shen Tujia.

"Xiaoyi said before that they had a fight, and they also played their respective roles. But I didn't expect that things would be so serious."

Zhang Budo squinted his eyes, "In this case, His Majesty can no longer let the two of them work together, and we have to transfer one of them. Since Zhao Tuo wants Shen Tujia to leave, then we'd better do the opposite. To transfer Chao Cuo. To be able to make Zhao Tuo unable to stay in Nanyue, this is also Shen Tujia's ability."

"You can't just listen to Zhao Tuo. Soon, my fourth brother will come to hear what the fourth brother has to say, and then make plans!"

"Your Majesty is wise!!"

Zhang Budo said, and then thought of something, "Your Majesty, it's just that this King of Wu. This minister has heard that he pretended to be in Wu State to win over the hearts of the people, calling himself the sun in the sky, His Majesty's benevolence and righteousness, and he respected the princes and kings very much. However, His Majesty You still need to be a little bit more careful.”

Liu Chang was immediately displeased, "What kind of person is he, don't I know? It's okay if they say that, how can you say that?"

"This minister is only thinking of His Majesty. They are afraid of offending His Majesty and dare not say such things."

"Okay, go out and do your business with the courtiers and the princes. Don't get caught up in it, otherwise, be careful about your position as the third prince!"

"only!!"

After sending Zhang Budo off, Liu Chang immediately left the Xuanshi Hall and went to Changle Palace.

Fan Qing was holding the child and chatting with Empress Lu. Seeing Chang Liu coming, Fan Qing didn't dare to disturb her, so she left with the child in her arms. Chang Liu sat in front of her mother and glanced at Fan Qing who was struggling, "This is Shuzi is so strong, his grandmother can't hold him anymore."

Empress Lu glanced at him, "It's similar to you. When you were young, I couldn't hold you."

"Hahaha, this Shuzi will definitely be tough when he grows up!"

Wuyang Wuhou family blood and Liu Changneng gave birth to what kind of fierce man, Empress Lu thought for a while, then shook his head, he probably never saw him grow up.

"How's Madam Yong going?"

"It's okay. Someone has taken care of her. I hope it's a daughter this time."

Liu Chang said seriously.

"By the way, the fourth brother of the mother is coming."

"Oh? Heng? Why did he come here?"

"Maybe I have to report something about the South, and about the canonization."

Empress Lu nodded, "Then what do you need me to do?"

Liu Chang grinned and said, "That's it. An wants to have the princes from all over send their heirs to Chang'an to study together in Taixue and cultivate their feelings. If the mother can let her grandson accompany him. It would be better if the name around him gave them an order and asked them to send people over."

Empress Lu glanced at Liu Chang, "Why don't you come by yourself?"

"I have always trusted them, and they will not let me down. If I order like this, I can't be mistaken by those around them as sending protons. Instead, it will affect our relationship. If my mother ordered, there will be so many things. . Anyway, the relationship between my mother and them is not cough, they respect my mother so much, and they will not refuse."

"Okay, I'll take care of this."

"Mum. And there's the matter of Big Brother."

Empress Lu's face turned cold and asked, "How about your elder brother?"

"No, mom, don't get me wrong. He didn't do anything wrong. He just wanted to come to see you, but he didn't dare to come."

Empress Lu was very casual at the moment, and waved her hand, "Then let him come over."

Liu Changchang was overjoyed and immediately sent someone to invite the elder brother to come.

Liu Ying soon appeared in the hall. After leaving the emperor's position, his whole person was obviously different. He no longer had the haggard he used to be. Although he was still not too healthy, it could be seen that he did not No longer as indulgent as in the past, he gradually returned to the state of mind when he was still a prince, a gentleman, elegant and easy-going.

However, the look in his eyes towards Empress Lu was still somewhat dodgy.

My mother had not seen him for a long time, and she was not allowed to come here at all. Liu Ying could only complain at Chang Liu's place. Chang Liu wanted to take him there, but Liu Ying didn't dare to see her at this moment. Still very scared, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mum. Are you okay?"

Empress Lu looked at the son in front of her, but her eyes were not as sharp as before, "I'll come over and sit down."

Liu Ying was stunned and glanced at Liu Chang subconsciously. Liu Chang looked helpless. Only then did Liu Ying sit next to Empress Lu. Empress Lu looked at him and asked, "Have you ever eaten?"

Liu Ying shook her head.

"Come on, get some food."

Hearing that there was something to eat, Liu Chang's eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted, "Get more meat!"

Soon, the three of them were filled with food, but Liu Chang was rude, and ate it right away. He couldn't see the majesty of the emperor at all, but Liu Ying ate it very carefully, and Empress Lu gave him a few more pieces. The meat, Liu Ying didn't say anything, just buried his head to eat, but Liu Chang was very unhappy, "Mum, you are... not fair! Why... just... um... for him? No, uh. What about me?"

"You swallow what's in your mouth before you speak!!"

"Oh."

Liu Ying ate and ate, but tears couldn't help falling.

"I thought. I lost love and my mother from now on."

He lowered his head as much as possible to prevent his mother from seeing his tears, because every time she saw him crying, she would reprimand him.

But this time, things were a little different. Empress Lu reached out her hand and gently wiped away his tears.

"You never lost love with me."

Seeing the mother and son talking, Liu Chang cautiously got up and walked out on tiptoe. At this time, it is best to let the mother and brother chat alone. When they approached the door, Liu Chang remembered something, turned back, and took a few pieces. Meat, and by the way, took away a few pieces of meat in front of Liu Ying.
"I was strict with you before because of Shuzi!! Would you try another one?!"

Liu Chang turned around and ran.

Liu Ying looked at the empty rice bowl in front of her, tears streaming down her face, but she couldn't help laughing, "Hahaha, this stubby really doesn't grow up."

Empress Lu quickly gave him the meat in front of him, and then said: "I have always been very strict with you. It's not because I don't love you, it's because you want to be a big man and you have a great responsibility, so , I cannot pet you."

"I let my mother down"

“A little disappointed indeed”

Empress Lu did not deny this, she immediately said: "However, you have a good brother, maybe you are not suitable for this position. Seeing your radiant appearance now, I think that this is not bad in the future. Do what you want with peace of mind. If you want to see me, you don't have to tell me any more."

Liu Ying wiped away her tears like a child.

"Okay, don't cry anymore."

"There are some things, you have to help your brother, it's not easy to grow up. With his character, he can achieve this step. Alas, you have to treat him well. He loves you the most."

"Yeah, if he really loves me and grabs meat, he only grabs me alone, and he doesn't dare to move my mother's."

"Straight!"

Empress Lu scolded him again, but listening to this familiar swearing, Liu Ying no longer felt panic, and he laughed happily.

Empress Lu tapped him on the head and let him eat his own meal.

Standing outside the hall, listening to the laughter coming from inside, Chang Liu nodded contentedly and strode into the distance.

Walk and hum a song.

Those who are familiar with him know that the king only sings while walking like this when he is happiest.

If you listen carefully, you can tell that the king is chanting his never-tired Tang King's Breakthrough Music.

"I'm an emperor now, and it's time to call Yuefu to make some new songs for me"
