[Ying Zheng + Dahan Emperor] Golden House

Tian Fu looked Li Yan from top to bottom, and then smiled and said to Huainan Prince Liu Qian: "This... I'm afraid it hasn't reached the fifteenth yet?"

Liu Qian laughed when he heard it, and said, "Indeed, I bought it from the music hall. You know that place, and you like small ones."

Tian Fu was holding Li Yan's hand at first. Li Yan's skin is fair and tender, she was born in a family, and her hands have never done rough work. Tian Fu couldn't put it down, but when he saw Liu Qian's smile, he immediately felt that Li Yan didn't like it. nothing.

After all, he has seen many beautiful women, but he has never seen such a heroic Liu Qian, especially when she smiles, she is really different.

Tian Fu immediately let go of Li Yan's hand and asked the servants to set up a banquet. Instead, he took Liu Qian's hand inside and sat down together.

Liu Qian is also a person with a lot of flirts, and he is no less involved than Tian Fu. He can naturally see Tian Fu's blatant eyes, but this time he promised his father to win Marquis Wu'an, and he can't ruin the big event for a moment of comfort. , Huainan Wang Liu An has ordered him over and over again.

Liu Qian has always been afraid of Liu An, and he didn't dare to neglect, so he could only endure it.

After entering the table, Tian Fu let go of his hand, and said with a smile: "The so-called reward for no merit, I don't know why the prince of Huainan is here?"

Liu Qian couldn't say it in front of everyone, after all, he had to be more careful, but after what happened just now, he didn't want everyone to retreat, Tian Fu's appearance gave him goosebumps, and it would be fine if the other party was a beauty.

Liu Qian endured it for a long time before he forced a smile and said, "Some things are not easy to say, please ask Marquis Wu'an to step back."

Tian Fu was overjoyed as soon as he heard it, and smiled very openly, and said: "Yes, please."

As he said that, he waved his hands to let everyone retreat, and Tian Fu and Liu Qian were left at the table for a while.

Liu Qian prepared to explain the purpose of coming quickly, and left after finishing speaking, and immediately said: "Actually, my father ordered me to come this time. My father said that I am in the capital, and any Wei Qihou can not go to visit first, but You must definitely come to the Marquis of Wu'an's residence, this is the etiquette."

Tian Fu smiled and cupped his hands and said, "The king of Huainan is too lovable."

Liu Qian didn't have so much ink in his stomach to praise others. They were all secret letters brought by the King of Huainan in advance, which said how to praise and how to say. , but did not dare to disobey the meaning of the father.

Liu Qian continued: "Father also said that in this capital, in terms of seniority, Marquis Wu'an is not necessarily the oldest, but in terms of resourcefulness and achievements, if Marquis Wu'an is self-effacing and says he is the second, I am afraid that no one will respect him." Dare to stick your head out and say number one."

Tian Fu smiled and shook his hands, "Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it."

He just said that, interrupted Liu Qian, and didn't let him continue. Tian Fu gradually gained a foothold in the court because of the relationship of the Queen Mother. If he didn't have the ability to judge people, how could he climb so fast? He just flattered people to see people's faces. Tian Fu could still see through Liu Qian's little trick at a glance.

Tian Fu said: "Ah, let me tell you, the prince of Huainan should not give Tian a psychedelic soup. I am not a person who likes to listen to flattery. Our emperor, young and vigorous, is the one who likes to listen to flattery." people."

When Liu Qian heard that he didn't know the truth, he felt a little anxious. Tian Fu slid down his wide sleeves, and he was no longer as friendly as before, and said: "Okay, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Liu Qian didn't understand why he suddenly became indifferent. After all, he was the prince of Huainan who was spoiled and raised, and he didn't have such a serious plan as Tian Fu.

Liu Qian gritted his teeth, and said directly: "Since Marquis Wu'an is a straightforward person, I'll just say it straight... I came here this time because I was entrusted by my father...to hold a big event together!"

In fact, Tian Fu had expected it a long time ago, what kind of peaceful person is Huainan King?At the moment when the relationship between the empress dowager and the emperor was at a stalemate, it could be seen that she had a clear intention to present the Huainan king's book.

To be honest, Tian Fu was a little disheartened when he was dismissed this time. He was not disheartened about his own future, but he was disheartened about the emperor and the empress dowager. With regard to Fu’s case, even if Tian Fu reported the secret, the old lady still dismissed him from office, and in Tian Fu’s heart, Emperor Liu Che was only 17 years old, a half-grown kid who wanted to attack the Huns with knives and guns, As a result, even the court didn't manage it well.

It's not that Tian Fu has great ambitions, but Tian Fu feels that he will not get any benefit from Liu Che and the Empress Dowager. Now that the prince of Huainan is looking for him, the King of Huainan is looking for him no matter in terms of seniority or garrison. , are the only candidates most likely to contend with the imperial court.

Tian Fu originally wanted to form an alliance with Liu An, the king of Huainan, to cooperate internally and externally, but he needed to borrow a slope to get off the donkey. Putting on airs, Liu An knew how difficult he was to recruit, Marquis Wu'an, and his worth was unusual.

Another point is that Tian Fu is lustful. He thinks that King Huainan wants to rely on himself and contribute a son, so what?

So at this time, Tian Fu heard him say the words "together for great things", and immediately "pang" beat the case, and shouted: "Bold Prince Huainan! Are you going to rebel!"

Liu Qian didn't expect Tian Fu to turn his face suddenly. He was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he almost went from sitting to kneeling. Suddenly, he realized that this was not the case. I am more than a head shorter.

Liu Qian regained his feeling of being frightened, and said with a dry smile: "Marquis Wu An, why did you say that?"

Tian Fu sneered and said, "I am the emperor's uncle. Which uncle would not want to see his nephew? What's more, this nephew is the emperor... It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just... Do you think it can do any good? "

Liu Qian felt relieved when he heard his price offer, took out a small box from his sleeve, and handed it to Tian Fu, who took it over and touched Liu Qian's hand twice along the way.

Liu Qian shuddered, not knowing why he was disgusted, but he still forced a smile and said: "This is written by my father, please read it by Marquis Wu'an."

Tian Fu took advantage, so he opened the box and took out the small bamboo slips inside. There were a lot of small characters written on it, and Tian Fu was naturally moved when he saw it.

The King of Huainan said that if Marquis Wu'an is willing to form an alliance, he will be a first-class hero after the Qing emperor's side, but if Marquis Wu'an just wants to be the emperor's uncle and continue to be suppressed by the Dou family, there is nothing wrong with it.

Tian Fu was tempted, but also very greedy. He threw the bamboo slips casually, and said with a smile, "I like the offer very much, but...these are all the offers from the King of Huainan. I don't know if the prince has any prices. Want to talk to me?" what about?"

Liu Qian had already swallowed his head, suppressed his anger, and said: "The person I brought just now is my sincerity. Hasn't Marquis Wu An realized it?"

Tian Fu was not in a hurry, and said: "This is a big deal, let me think about it first."

Liu Qian still wanted to talk, but Tian Fu had already stood up and said loudly, "Seeing off the guests."

Liu Qian just glared at Tian Fu at the moment, then flung his sleeves and left the house. The counselor in the carriage asked Liu Qian how he was doing.

Liu Qian just said unhappily: "Tian Fu is a snob, greedy and greedy, it is not enough to seek great things with him!"

The counselor said: "The crown prince doesn't know something, because he is a snob, so he can take advantage of it. If he is really a person who has no desires and desires, how can he win him over?"

Tian Fu waited for Liu Qian to leave before standing up, and he couldn't sit still, so he called his servants to prepare horses, and prepared to enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother.

Tian Fu took the singer Li Yan sent by Liu Qian and went to the palace.

The Empress Dowager is in a bad mood these days. Firstly, Tian Fu is the only force in her royal family, and now she is dismissed by the Empress Dowager. Although Dou Ying is also dismissed, she is still unhappy.Secondly, the emperor went to the Jiaofang Palace every day, Chen Ajiao already favored the harem alone, and the other emperors didn't even look at it.

Not long ago, the Queen Mother heard that Dong Yan had been executed on the charges of Dongfang Shuo, three capital crimes.

The Queen Mother originally thought that Liu Che was going to have trouble with Dou's family. Dong Yan was a popular person in front of Dou Taizhu, but later he heard that the queen did not like Dong Yan, so the emperor killed him. I don't know how the queen got along with Dou As the Taizhu said, Taizhu Dou never entered the palace to make trouble.

The queen mother is now more and more jealous of Chen Ajiao. In his heart, Chen Ajiao is the one who can only rely on his mother, and yells at the emperor every day, "If there is no me, how can you be the emperor, how can your mother be the queen mother", The Queen Mother could never have imagined that the people living in the Jiaofang Hall had changed their flesh, which made her extremely distressed.

When the Queen Mother heard that Tian Fu was coming, she was worried that there was no one to speak, and said, "Let him in."

Tian Fu came in, because he was very familiar with the Queen Mother, so he didn't salute, just sat down and said, "How is sister?"

The Queen Mother sighed, frowned, pushed the water over to him, and said, "It's all right, I'm not pissed to death, it's all good."

The Queen Mother saw that he picked up the fruit on the table and ate it, as if he was not in a hurry, knocked the fruit off his hand, and said: "You are still eating, as if you are not in a hurry at all, look at yourself, okay?" The easy-going Taiwei did not become the prime minister, and now he has nothing."

Tian Fu said: "What's the use of being anxious, this is not something to be anxious about."

The Queen Mother is Liu Che's biological mother. No matter how good his relationship with his sister is, he can't tell her about Huainan Wang Yue's rebellion.

Tian Fu's eyes turned slightly, and he said with a smile: "He's not young, he wants to decide everything by himself, and he won't listen to others' persuasion. If my grandson does it, who will suffer if I don’t have power or influence? You see, Dou Ying is also at home, but Wei Qihou’s gate is full of people coming and going, thousands of diners!"

Listening to the Queen Mother, she felt more and more that the Dou family was suppressing her Wang family, and said with a sneer, "Hmph, no matter how powerful the old lady is, how long can she live?"

Tian Fu hurriedly looked around. When the Queen Mother and Tian Fu were talking, they usually didn't let people wait on them, but Tian Fu was suspicious by nature, and when he saw no one, he lowered his voice and said: "Good sister, this is disrespectful. , as long as the old lady is around for a day, you can't say that, you know."

The Queen Mother just sneered and said no more, but she was also afraid in her heart.

Tian Fu then said: "At the end of the day, my brother thinks that we can't afford to move the Empress Dowager, but not everyone in his Dou family can't move."

"You want to fight Dou Ying?"

"No, no." Tian Fu stuffed fruit into his mouth, shook his hand and said, "Dou Ying is old and cunning, with an appearance of wanting nothing, but in fact he is too shrewd in his bones, let's pick the soft ones."

The Queen Mother said: "Who is that, don't be a fool."

Tian Fu smiled and said, "Good sister, why didn't you expect that she is the queen."

The queen mother sneered again, "Empress? Pig is now inseparable from the empress. For his good empress, he would rather not listen to his mother's advice and raise him so big for nothing."

Tian Fu said: "Sister, you don't know something. No matter how powerful the emperor is, no matter how ambitious he is, he is a man after all. What a man thinks is not simple. Money, power, beauties...you are honey pots." How can he be so dedicated to a woman when he grows up? He is the emperor, with countless beauties in the harem, how could he be so dedicated. That is, the queen is now pregnant with a dragon."

The Queen Mother sighed and said: "You also said that the queen is pregnant with the dragon seed, and it is the time to be favored. If she falls out of favor, it must be after she gives birth to the child."

Tian Fu shook his head and said: "No, no. My sister is confused. If this child is really born, how can you, the queen mother, live well? The queen is a member of the Dou family. If the child is raised by the queen, it will not come to you The queen mother's phoenix crown came up to pee?"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she slapped the table angrily, and said, "Then tell me!"

Only then did Tian Fu lower his voice, and said with a smile: "This child must not be allowed to be born, but this is something for another time. When the emperor dotes on the queen, it is not easy to do it. If he does not dote on it, it is not easy to do it. Son? Elder sister, listen to me... The empress is pregnant now, so it must be very inconvenient for her body. The emperor is a man, how can he stay in the Jiaofang Palace all the time, right? If there is a beauty who can attract the emperor's attention at this time, Then it's complete!"

The queen mother was a little disappointed, and said: "You said, Yang Xin also told me before, but it didn't work, Li Yannian offered music, so many beautiful singers, it didn't work, and that one named Wei Zifu, Yang Xin valued it more Neither can she."

Tian Fu said: "Princess Yangxin is a woman after all, how can she understand a man's mind? Doesn't the emperor dote on the empress, so find a woman who is similar to the empress. The empress is inconvenient, and my brother really doesn't believe it. This woman gets along a lot, can she remain unmoved? Starting from her similar appearance, coupled with the promotion of you, the Queen Mother, she is not afraid of being favored."

The queen mother said: "You are right, but where can I find such a woman who is similar to the queen? Could it be possible to let Mrs. Dou come to look for it!"

Tian Fu laughed, with some malicious intentions, and said: "Sister, if my younger brother is not prepared, how can I talk to you empty-handedly, you don't know my younger brother too well."

He said, got up and went out by himself, and not long after, he pulled a woman in.

The woman was dressed very elegantly, with her head bowed, she walked in coquettishly, with a graceful figure, swaying in the wind as she walked, as if her body was unusually soft and graceful, even if she didn't see her face, she knew she was a charming and romantic person.

The Queen Mother said: "Raise your head."

Li Yan responded softly with a "no", and slowly raised her head casually, looking very well-behaved.

The Queen Mother looked around and said, "There is only a little resemblance. The side profile looks like it at first glance, but it doesn't look like it when you look closely."

Tian Fu said: "This is enough."

"The appearance is really good, and she looks cute. According to what you said, where should I put her first? The affairs of Yeting are managed by the empress. Even if a talented person is written in the book of Yeting The name of Jiaofangdian will be notified by someone.”

Tian Fu said: "Don't put it in Ye Ting. If you leave Ye Ting, you must first go to the Jiaofang Palace to serve as a female official for the queen. This is not appropriate. The Dou family is famously ruthless, so they are not killed? According to my brother Well, it’s true that we like beauties, but it takes multi-talented beauties for him to catch his eyes, no more than those vulgar fans, right? This Li Yan is from a family background, why don’t she be sent to Yuefu, where Li Yannian Tune it out, and then praise it when you present the song to the emperor."

Li Yan heard the word "Li Yannian", and said in a low voice timidly: "Can you say Li Yannian from Yuefu, my lord?"

Tian Fu said: "What? Do you still know Li Yannian?"

Li Yandao: "Li Yannian is the concubine's elder brother. Because he violated the law, he was sent to the palace to be a dog after the castration. After a few years of separation, he has already arrived in Yuefu."

When the Queen Mother heard it, she smiled and said: "Then the relationship is better, let's go to Yuefu and let your elder brother teach you the rules in the palace. Your Majesty, I like you the soft-spoken one the most."

They were talking, when a maid came in suddenly, the queen mother turned cold and shouted: "Who let you in!"

The maid hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Queen Mother, the Queen has come to greet you and is outside."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she panicked a little, but she couldn't let Ying Zheng see Li Yan, lest he get suspicious.

Tian Fu was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Sister, when you see the queen, I will avoid it first, remember, you must treat the Dou family politely, you have endured it for so many years, you can't mess up your position for a while. "

The Queen Mother nodded, waved her hand and said, "Hurry up and take this Li Yan down."

After Tian Fu and Li Yan went to the inner room to escape, the Queen Mother straightened her sleeves, sat in front of the spinning wheel, picked up the shuttle and spun it decently, and then sent the maid to invite Ying Zheng.

Every time Ying Zheng came back to greet her, the Queen Mother was either weaving or embroidering things, no different from ordinary virtuous women.

When Emperor Jing was alive, she was good at pretending, making people look very peaceful, but a woman who had given birth to a child and entered the palace with the emperor, if she had no means, no matter how beautiful she was, she would not be able to gain a foothold, she had to be ruthless.

The Queen Mother has always used spinning wheels and needlework to cover herself, but her tricks are all about Liu Che. After all, Liu Che was brought up by her. How could she doubt her mother in her heart, but she can't deceive the Queen Mother. I am blind, but I don't need to see people with my eyes, but I can see more clearly.Then Ying Zheng couldn't be fooled even more.

Yingzheng's mother is also a singer, she was taken by her father and brought into the palace. This is exactly the same background as Liu Che, except that Yingzheng's mother wanted to be a woman more, and the Queen Mother wanted to be a woman more. Stay in the East Palace.

Yingzheng greeted the Queen Mother calmly. If he hadn't had to come every five days, he wouldn't have come here to see the fake kindness of the Queen Mother. Dou Taizhu is not careful and treats the Queen Mother as a good person. Sisters look at it, but Ying Zheng is a thoughtful person.

When the Queen Mother saw him, she put down the shuttle from her hand, and said with a smile, "A-Jiao is here, sit down quickly... You are not in good condition, so you don't need to use it. If you want to talk to me, ask someone to come over with me." Let me tell you, it’s the same when I go to Jiaofang Palace.”

It has been three months since Ying Zheng sat down, and he didn't know if he was thinking too much. Anyway, he felt that his body was different from before, and he always felt a lot heavier. I always feel that sitting is not right, standing is not good, and lying down is not good.

He was not feeling well and kept being awkward, so he didn't want to be polite to the Queen Mother, and he didn't have the heart to be hypocritical with her.

The queen mother didn't think so. After hearing Tian Fu's words, she thought that she should be more polite and friendly to Ying Zheng, so that she could secretly train Li Yan and prevent Ying Zheng from becoming suspicious.

The Queen Mother said: "How is your body recently? Is there any discomfort? Does the imperial doctor ask for pulse every day? If you want any medicinal materials, just go and get them. There is a lot of money in the treasury. If you have money at this time, you need to use it. "

The Queen Mother was talking to herself, she didn't seem to want Ying Zheng to answer anything, she just expressed her concern, and when she finished speaking, she said, "Okay, you are tired too, so I won't stay any longer." You, pay attention to yourself."

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng got up and retreated.

After paying respects to the Queen Mother, he had to go to the East Palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager. Ying Zheng got into the car, and when he was approaching the East Palace, he saw Liu Che's car parked outside from a distance, and it must be Liu Che inside.

Ying Zheng got out of the car, went inside, and saw Wei Qing outside the hall. Wei Qing had been by Liu Che's side since he was promoted.

Liu Che listened to Ying Zheng's words and wanted to start gathering momentum. He assembled a team of dozens of people to deceive others. These people were all the sons of princes and ministers. It was four days, and on the fifth day, I had to go to court in the morning before returning.

These people were all selected by Yingzheng himself, the sons of princes and ministers, because they are powerful and not born in the dirt, and if they are used in the future, they will be associated with each other.

It was better for Liu Che to go out hunting every day, and then go to Jiaofang Palace when he came back to court, than to soak in Jiaofang Palace every day. Ying Zheng couldn't say that he had selfish intentions. Since Liu Che went hunting, Ying Zheng's ears were finally cleared up a lot.After all, with Liu Che by his side, it's not easy for him to gather his power and connections.

Yingzheng entered the palace, and he saw Liu Che. The Empress Dowager was sitting on the phoenix couch, and Liu Che was sitting on the side, talking to the Empress Dowager.

As soon as Yingzheng came in, the Empress Dowager heard it and said, "Listen to this, is Gillian here?"

Liu Che went out for four days. When he saw Ying Zheng, his eyes suddenly lit up. He said, "Grandma, it's Sister Gillian who is here."

As he spoke, he stood up immediately, and rushed over to support Ying Zheng, lest he fall.

The Empress Dowager asked Ying Zheng to sit down, and she sat beside her, took Ying Zheng's hand, and said with a smile: "It seems that the emperor treats you well, but your mother is always nagging about sending you to the palace, for fear that you will be hurt." Wronged, the old body feels right, the emperor loves to see you, the old body can feel at ease."

After the Empress Dowager finished speaking, she turned to Liu Che and said, "I heard that you have been going out of the palace recently, and you haven't seen anyone for a few days. What are you doing?"

Hearing her question, Liu Che subconsciously turned his head to look at Ying Zheng. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager couldn't see anything, so I don't know what they were doing.

Ying Zheng was not flustered, he just gave Liu Che a wink, and Liu Che said with a smile: "My grandson has recently studied Huang Lao's study, and I have a feeling in my heart that the world should be governed by doing nothing, so I took a group of people out Hunting."

"Hunting."

Liu Che said: "That's right, my grandson took Wei Qing and the others, camped in the wild at night, brought back a lot of wild game, and brought some cooked game to grandma after a while."

The Empress Dowager was amused by him, and said: "I'm old, how can I eat wild game?"

Liu Che said: "The grandson specifically asked them to cook it thoroughly before sending it over."

The Empress Dowager nodded, seemingly satisfied, and said: "I am very pleased that you can understand Huang-Lao's learning. Our Han Dynasty has been an official school since Gaozu, and that is the teaching of our ancestors. You want to make achievements. , the old body will not stop you, but you must know that you must not forget your roots."

Liu Che had a look of impatience on his face, but he restrained himself immediately, and agreed, "Grandson just made a mistake in the past, and now he has changed his past."

Seeing Liu Che's fluent answers, Ying Zheng made the Empress Dowager happy. Although Liu Che is still young and tends to be impulsive, he has to say that he is a good young man.

Ying Zheng was secretly apprehensive, and felt that he had to speed up his pace. If the empress dowager died, the cabinet of the Han Dynasty would be turned upside down. Liu Che would be in power at that time. It is not an ordinary difficulty.

It's just that although Yingzheng is powerful and much more scheming than the 17-year-old Liu Che, he can't turn beans into soldiers. He can't do things without connections and troops. Even if they can gather all the troops, it will take less than half a month's advance time, let alone such a big event.

And this Liu Che, with such a high level of comprehension, may not be able to be used by him for a long time. Even if he seems to be dependent on him now, it is because he is his brain truster. .

After saving the old lady, Liu Che was about to go back with Ying Zheng, when the Empress Dowager said: "A-Jiao stay, let's have a meal, the emperor will go back first."

Ying Zheng didn't know why the Empress Dowager kept him, and suddenly thought that the old lady was too shrewd and saw something, so he had to stay.

Liu Che was a little disappointed, but he still left alone. He got into the chariot, went back, and when he reached the gate of the hall, he heard that Dongfang Shuo was asking to see him.

Liu Che didn't like this Dongfang Shuo very much. Although Dongfang Shuo had the same thoughts as Yingzheng on Dong Yan's matter, this person was too smart and eloquent, and he always made Liu Che lose face. He was an emperor, how could he? Reuse people who always slap themselves in the face.

When Liu Che met Dongfang Shuo in the proclamation room, Dongfang Shuo knelt on the ground, and before he could speak, Liu Che said, "It's that Dongfang Shuo who went up to the hall with the halberd."

Dongfang Shuo naturally knew that Liu Che wanted to ridicule him because of the previous incident, but he was not angry, but said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I would like to invite Your Majesty to play a game."

Liu Che laughed as soon as he heard it, and said, "I thought you could only wield knives and guns."

Dongfang Shuo said with a dry smile, "Thank you for your love, but I don't know how to wield knives and guns, and I only have some ink in my stomach..."

Liu Che didn't want to talk poorly with him. If he was quick-talking and all over the world, no one would be able to compare with Dongfang Shuo. He said, "Dongfang Shuo, if you have any crazy ideas, just say it. I have a lot of notebooks here, and I don't have time to read them." You are a god and a ghost."

Dongfang Shuo said: "Actually, I just want to guess what His Majesty is thinking."

"My thoughts?" Liu Che was taken aback, because he was planning the steps to seize power in An'an recently, so he was a little surprised when the word "mind" was said by the other party, but he said calmly: "What can I have?" Mind, you should guess what the Empress Dowager is thinking."

"If the humble minister can guess correctly, please ask the emperor to reward the humble minister with some wild game. How about your majesty?"

Dongfang Shuo's words clearly made Liu Che let go of his guard, and said with a smile, "So you, Dongfang Shuo, are greedy? Okay, you guess."

Only then did Dongfang Shuo respond, stood up and fiddled with it for a long time, and said to the sky: "There is Qiming in the east, and Changgeng in the west. Isn't your majesty just wanting to pick Taibai Xing?"

Liu Che couldn't help smiling when he heard this. Chang Geng was the image of a general, and he was in charge of killing. Naturally, it meant that Liu Che was training soldiers in secret.

Looking at his expression, Dongfang Shuo knew that he had guessed right, and continued: "Your Majesty leading the soldiers seems to be out hunting, but in fact it is a miniature version of marching and fighting. Familiar with the situation and train generals, within the scope of ability, Preparation ability. His Majesty's heart is not only in the government, but in the toad..."

Dongfang Shuo said it implicitly, and the toad was naturally referring to the Shanyu of the Huns.

Liu Che understood, and couldn't help but be a little surprised. This cynical Dongfang Shuo, in addition to impeaching ministers on weekdays, is just playing tricks and bickering. He never imagined that he would have such a discerning eye.

Liu Che said with a smile without moving his face: "You still have this ability?"

Dongfang Shuo said: "Your Majesty, apart from being able to guess, I have another basic skill, and that is face-to-face."

"Acquaintance?" Liu Che didn't know what he was going to say, and said, "Then you meet me."

"No, no," Dongfang Shuo waved his hands repeatedly, and said, "How can a humble minister meet the Son of Heaven?"

Liu Che said, "Why not?"

Dongfang Shuo said: "Dong Zhongshu once proposed three strategies for the emperor, but from the perspective of my humble ministers, the three strategies of heaven and man may not be all right. One of them, the monarchy is granted by heaven, but in the eyes of my humble ministers, it is pure nonsense. , how can you face the sky?"

Liu Che said: "Then who do you want to meet for?"

Dongfang Shuo suddenly became serious and said, "The person who advises the emperor."

"Who are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Dongfang Shuo saw that the emperor was pretending to be stupid, and said: "My humble minister is stupid, and I can't guess which capable person and strange person around your majesty came up with these ideas for the emperor. Using Huang Lao's learning to create a surprise army, it seems to be ruled by doing nothing, but in fact it is One life, two, two, three, three, endlessly cultivate generals... A person who can come up with such a clever plan must be extraordinary. He is indeed the emperor's right-hand man, but the emperor... although I have never seen this person, I can. meet him."

Listening to his serious tone, Liu Che just said, "Go ahead."

Dongfang Shuo said: "Your Majesty, the front of this person is the face of wealth and honor, which can help the emperor honor the king and fight against barbarians, but his back... Once he turns around, he will be the face of the emperor, and he can ascend to the world!"

After he finished speaking, he knelt down and put his head on the ground, waiting for Liu Che to deal with him.

Liu Che's heart skipped a beat when he said this, Dongfang Shuo was right, this man's strategy is outstanding, he is calm and intelligent, fearless in times of danger, and has a great demeanor, but he is a woman after all, and lives in the Jiaofang Palace woman.

Liu Che himself did not doubt Yingzheng, because no matter how clever Liu Che was, he would never have thought that sister Gillian, who lived in the Jiaofang Palace, was indeed the first emperor Yingzheng who unified the six kingdoms.

It's just that Dongfang Shuo uttered these words, and Liu Che's heart was inexplicably extra, and he panicked.

Dongfang Shuo waited for a long time, Liu Che finally came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "I know Dongfang Shuo that you are also loyal to the emperor, but this person is impossible with his unique skills, so don't worry."

Although Dongfang Shuo heard Liu Che say this, it was obvious that Liu Che hesitated for a long time before saying it. How could a shrewd person like him not know that the emperor was on guard in his heart, but he just didn't say it, and his goal had actually been achieved.

Now that the emperor has understood, Dongfang Shuo didn't say any more, just knelt down obediently, and then withdrew from the Xuanshi Pavilion.

Liu Che sat in the proclamation room for a while. Although he said he had no doubts about Ying Zheng, he was unavoidably uncomfortable in his heart. He beckoned the servant to come over, and said, "Go and call the maid from Jiaofang Palace, I want to ask questions."

"promise."

The Empress Dowager left Yingzheng behind, the meal was already served, and the maid came to serve the Empress Dowager.

After taking a few mouthfuls, the old lady said, "How are you doing recently?"

Ying Zheng said: "Go back to the Empress Dowager, everything is fine."

The Empress Dowager nodded, told the palace people to retreat, and waved to Ying Zheng, who slowly stood up while supporting the table, and sat next to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager said: "You, although your uncle said that you are more serious, but the old man is not at ease. Now that you are pregnant again, you must be careful. It is your mother who spoiled you, and it is also the old man's fault. , you have never known sorrow since you were a child, and you do not know the complexity of the inner courtyard of the palace."

She said, paused for a moment, and said: "On weekdays in the Jiaofang Palace, you must never eat the food sent by others... especially the Queen Mother, do you understand?"

Yingzheng naturally knew that the food sent by the Queen Mother was not edible, and she wished that the queen's child would be lost. Although Yingzheng didn't want the child, after all, he was a man, and if he had a child, he couldn't let go of the disgust in his heart.

But who knows if he lost his child or lost his life after eating the food from the Queen Mother. Ying Zheng grew up in adversity, not the naive Chen Ajiao, so he is naturally more cautious.

But he said calmly: "Why did grandma say that?"

The Empress Dowager said: "You don't know, this Empress Dowager is like a loving elder on weekdays, she weaves and embroiders, she seems to be honest and honest, but ah...but the most vicious ones are just a few. She is dead, do you still remember Liu Rong... that is also the grandson of the old man, when Liu Rong rejected your mother's proposal of marriage, the queen mother took advantage of this, your mother just wanted to vent her anger, she was simple-minded, and did not After thinking so much, the Queen Mother took advantage of your mother..."

When she said this, she didn't go on. People like to be together when they are old, not to mention that Liu Rong is also her grandson. Liu Rong died tragically in the end, and the old lady was not sad.

The Empress Dowager paused, and said: "Anyway, be careful, don't be careless, if you encounter something, come here and ask me."

In Ying Zheng's previous life, no one had treated him so kindly. It came from the sincerity, and he felt a little bit emotional. Although this old man was sometimes domineering and old-fashioned, he treated his relatives with sincerity.

Ying Zheng said: "Grandma, don't worry, I just pay attention."

The empress dowager was relieved after hearing his answer.

When Yingzheng returned to the Jiaofang Palace, Liu Che unexpectedly did not come. The maid Chu Fu hurriedly greeted him when he came back, took off the cumbersome coat for Yingzheng, and brought water again.

Seeing her kneeling on one side, Ying Zheng seemed to have something to say, and said, "Just say what you have to say."

Chu Fu said: "Your Majesty, this servant just saw the servants beside His Majesty and called away the two maids in the palace. I had some doubts in my heart, so I asked these two people when they came back..."

She paused, then lowered her voice and said: "It turned out that the emperor asked the two of them to go over and questioned the empress in detail about her recent daily life, who she had met and what she had said."

Ying Zheng felt a little strange when he heard this. It stands to reason that Liu Che is now obeying his advice, lest he would not offer him a plan. At this time, Liu Che was stumbled by the Empress Dowager, no, he is also a downcast emperor. You should trust yourself more, why did you suddenly question your words and deeds.

Ying Zheng said: "Do you know who else His Majesty has met today besides Jian Zhangwei?"

Chu Fu said: "This servant also thought it was strange, so I deliberately set up a routine, and I really asked. The emperor went to the Xuanshi Pavilion after returning from the East Palace, and met Dongfang Shuo there!"

"Dongfang Shuo..."
