Tragedy of Time Traveling Companion Reading

An hour of the eclipse passed.After Han Yan waited for Liu Zhi to calm down, he took him to Weiyang Palace.There, Wang Zhi and a group of concubines were talking with Emperor Jing in the main hall!After the two of them went in, they saw the concubines who kept their children by their side except Wang Zhi, and Liu Zhi's handsome face that had just been calmed down completely darkened.Wang Zhi was busy appeasing his concubines and arranging maidservants, ordering all the maids and eunuchs in the main hall of Weiyang Palace in an orderly manner.He didn't care about the two Liu Zhi who came up to them.On the contrary, Emperor Jing who leaned out to watch from time to time noticed the two of them, and immediately called out with a smile: "Hey, what did you do just now, are you afraid?"

"Father, the solar eclipse is just a natural celestial phenomenon, and my child has never been afraid." Liu Zhi walked in front of Emperor Jing and bowed politely.

"Natural phenomena?" Emperor Jing asked playfully. "Who did you hear that from?"

"Ayan said it." Liu Zhi lowered his head and replied.He sold Han Yan without hesitation.

"Oh, Han Yan from Gong Gaohou's family?" Emperor Jing still had some impressions of Han Yan who had been confused before.Immediately, his eyes fell on Han Yan who was beside Liu She. "You said it."

"Return to Your Majesty's words. Ah Yan thinks that Zi's speech is strange. This solar eclipse is also like thunder and rain. It is a natural phenomenon. It's just that the former is more rare." Han Yan responded with a bow.

"You don't speak strange powers?" Emperor Jing asked with great interest. "Are you still studying Confucianism?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I just look at it occasionally." Han Yan paused and immediately explained respectfully.The Han Dynasty ruled the world with Huang Lao's scholarship, and advocated the rule of the vertical arch.It is not a good thing to make Emperor Jing mistakenly think that he is biased towards Confucianism.

"Really?" Emperor Jing laughed lightly upon hearing this.Looking past the slightly silent Liu Zhi, he suddenly asked, "From Ah Yan's point of view, how does this big man use Huang Lao's learning to govern the world?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, from the time of Emperor Gaozu to His Majesty, for 60 years, the great Han practiced the rule of inaction, and recuperated with the people. Up to now, the capital of the capital has accumulated huge amounts of money, which cannot be corrected. , until corrupt and inedible. The country is rich and the people are strong, so it is a prosperous age of culture and prosperity." Han Yan bowed and said solemnly.

"You are a slippery boy." Hearing this, Emperor Jing couldn't help laughing.Pointing at Han Yan with his finger, he asked, "Then do you think it is necessary to study Confucianism?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, from the great ancestor to your majesty, although Huang Lao ruled by doing nothing in the imperial court, all the generals in the court learned the art of war, and the civil servants studied Confucianism, legalists, or Mohism, and they could make the best use of each. Each perform their duties. Therefore, Ah Yan believes that it doesn't matter whether a dog is black or white, as long as it catches the prey, it is a good dog." Han Yan clasped her fists, and said a statement for future generations calmly.

"It doesn't matter whether the dog is black or white, as long as it catches the prey, it is a good dog." Emperor Jing was delighted when he heard this.A series of loud laughter came out one after another, making the concubines and emperors watching from the side curious.After knowing that Han Yan ran out of Changle Palace to look for Liu Zhi after the solar eclipse, he was full of praise.

"Worthy of being a descendant of Gong Gaohou, he is indeed loyal."

"Han Yan is the companion of His Royal Highness King Jiaodong, and it is his duty to accompany him. Compared with his grandfather's record of defending his country on the battlefield, he is like a firefly light. His Majesty should not praise him like this." Han Yan immediately bowed and shirked .However, his act of not being proud of taking credit for it made Emperor Jing appreciate it even more.

Immediately, Longyan was overjoyed and rewarded Han Yan with a hundred gold.

On the third day after the solar eclipse, Emperor Jing discussed with all the civil and military ministers in the court to make Jiaodong King Liu Zhi the crown prince on the grounds that "the reserve position is vacant, and the sky warns".At that time, the envoys of King Liang had already moved to the Empress Dowager Dou of Changle Palace.Empress Dowager Dou considered that the former prince Liu Rong was dead, and she wanted King Liang to be the prince, so she refuted Emperor Jing's proposal on the grounds that Liu Zhi was still young.He signaled Xu Chang and other ministers to propose that King Liang be the crown prince, and the throne should be passed on from brother to brother.As a result, all the elders and ministers in the court opposed one after another, and they immediately stalemate there.No one can tell anyone.

Han Yan knew this result well.So when Wang Zhi was in a hurry in the Jiaofang Hall, Han Yan still stayed in the small courtyard of the Qilan Hall.The spring breeze in April revived the desolate land and dyed the few plants in the small courtyard very beautifully.It was sunny after the rain, and the air was filled with the faint freshness of flowers and plants.The light rain and dew condensed on the clusters of magnolias, and under the refraction of the sun, a crystal halo bloomed.

Han Yan sat kneeling in the corner of the corridor, in front of the table was a tripod of fragrant sandalwood, a guzheng was placed on the table, Han Yan's slender and well-proportioned fingers fiddled freely on the strings, and a white wrist was exposed. In the air, with the light movements of the fingertips, there is a kind of fragile surprise.

Liu Zhi was still a little uncertain at first, seeing Han Yan playing the guzheng so calmly.The mood also gradually relaxed, casually half-leaning on the rocking chair, with one arm pillowed under the head, the other hand naturally hanging sideways on the waist, and the fingertips continued to bounce along with Han Yan's melody.

The sound of the piano is like spring water slowly rippling in this small courtyard after the rain, slowly soaking into the bottom of my heart with the moist air.Liu Zhi stared deeply at Han Yan's leisurely and contented face, and his delicate eyebrows slowly turned into a pool of spring water with the passage of the piano sound, rendering the corners of his eyes and brows more and more intoxicating.Liu Zhi just stared at it blankly, until Han Yan finished the song, he was stunned for a while, and then asked with a smile: "What's the name of your song, why haven't you heard of it before?"

"The rain breaks the south of the Yangtze River." Han Yan put her hands together, rubbing her slightly sore fingers and wrists that hadn't been played for a long time, and said with a smile.

"The rain breaks Jiangnan?" Liu Zhi repeated it curiously, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Listen to the soft, beautiful, soft and gentle sound of your piano, how could it be Jiangnan?"

When Han Yan heard this, she smiled and remained silent.The Jiangnan in his mind is a Jiangnan with broken bridges and remnant snow, West Lake and Sudi;

"Why don't you talk?" Liu Zhi panicked for no reason when he saw the smile on Han Yan's face.With dry mouth, blushing and beating heart, he immediately tilted his head and asked a little uncomfortable.

"It's nothing." Luckily, Han Yan stood up and stretched.Facing the warm sun in early spring, I took a deep breath with great enjoyment. "Sleep warm and sleep well in spring!"

"You're still sleeping! You're free." Liu She curled her lips and said, "It would be great if everyone in the world was as peaceful and at ease as you, but it's a pity that there are always a few jumping clowns constantly jumping around."

"You mean His Royal Highness King Liang?" Han Yan asked intentionally.Looking at Liu Zhi's darkened face in an instant, he chuckled lightly. "What are you in a hurry for, just let him jump around."

"You said it lightly, if the emperor's grandmother really helped him ascend to the crown prince, what would I do?" Liu Zhi got up and said impatiently.

Hearing this, Han Yan couldn't help but shook her head, with a lingering curve on her lips, and said with a smile: "What's yours is yours, and others can't take it away. If it's not yours, it's not yours. You Can't stay."

"What you said sounds like Mr. Huang is quiet and inaction, but it's a pity that what you said is just to deceive those who are willing to follow the crowd. Will you believe it?" Liu Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"I'm talking about King Liang." Han Yan said with a smile.Seeing Liu Zhi looking at him with great interest, he paused and explained: "King Liang will definitely not be the crown prince. As for the reason, I told you before."

"I know. You said that it is against the ancestral system and out of common practice for Liang Wang's younger brother to inherit the throne. The father and the emperor will not agree, the civil and military officials will not agree, and the princes will not agree. But the key is that the grandmother is willing!" Liu Zhi Walking around on the ground a little anxiously.

"Calm down." Han Yan touched the guzheng lightly with her hand, and the light and melodious sound of the zither sounded immediately.Han Yan nodded in satisfaction with the timbre of the guzheng, and said, "Don't worry! The empress has her own countermeasures in mind, and she probably will act soon in the next few days."

Before the words fell, someone at the door said loudly: "I have seen His Royal Highness Jiaodong King, I have seen Mr. A Yan, and the Empress has summoned Jiaofangdian to see him."

Han Yan immediately smiled and said, "This is not coming."

Liu Zhi looked at Han Yan's smug smile and shook his head helplessly.

The two got up and went back to the house to wake up Zhou Mingjin who was taking a nap at noon, and then followed the palace servant to the Jiaofang Hall.

Jiaofang Hall is the main hall of the harem, which is the bedroom of the empress of the Han Dynasty.Compared with the Qilan Palace, its imposing scale is almost one in the sky and the other in the underground.From the front yard to the main hall, rare treasures can be seen everywhere, carved railings and jade bricks, and even the inconspicuous bluestone paintings under the feet are carved by famous artists.Everywhere shows the luxury and majesty of the Han court.It's a pity that the stronger the momentum, the weaker the human touch.No matter how you look at it, the Jiaofang Temple, which is full of flowers, looks so empty.Against the background, Wang Zhi, who is kneeling at the head of the main hall, is so thin and cold.

The three of Han Yan walked three feet in front of Wang Zhi and stopped.Then he bowed and saluted: "Your son (Ayan, Zhou Mingjin) has seen the queen mother (the empress).

"Excuse me." Wang Zhi put his hands up empty-handed, motioning for everyone to stand up.Then he said with a smile: "I've been busy arranging the affairs of the harem for the past few days, so I feel a little neglected for you. How are you doing these few days?"

"...It's all good!" Han Yan looked at the two who were not talking, and responded bravely.

"I think it's good. I want you all to move to the Jiaofang Palace, but you don't want to. You say you want to be more independent. That's fine too. Now that I'm old, it's good to be independent. After all He is the prince of the big man, and in the future he will..." Wang Zhi was vague when he said this. "But you are the only one among the three, Ah Yan, who is thoughtful and prudent. You need to worry more about the basic necessities of the pig."

"Your Majesty is serious, this is Ah Yan's job." Han Yan bowed immediately.Said humbly in the air. "It's Ah Yan's blessing to be by His Highness's side, something no one else can ask for."

"That's true. After all, Xi'er will take on important responsibilities in the future. As long as you, Ah Yan, can always accompany Xi'er faithfully, you will have a bright future." Wang Zhi said.Then Zhuangruo casually proposed: "You and Ming Jin have been Zhu'er's companions for several years. I have never visited your house. If you have free time today, why don't you go to see you at your house?" !"

Hearing this, Zhou Mingjin glanced at Han Yan subconsciously, suddenly realized something, and immediately lowered his head and looked at his toes.

Han Yan naturally knew what Wang Zhi was going to do, so she didn't say much, just bowed down and said, "My Lady, Long En."

Seeing this, Zhou Mingjin bowed down as well.

"They're all from my own family, so why bother talking outside the box." Wang Zhi smiled with satisfaction.Then he got up and helped the two of them up, and said in his mouth: "You two haven't been home for a long time since you entered the palace to accompany Shi'er to study. This time you have the opportunity, why don't you go home and have a look!"

"No!" Han Yan and the two immediately bowed and thanked.

Wang Zhi had already calculated it properly, and heard the two people's answers.Immediately ordered the servants to prepare the jade chariot.Take Liu Zhi and three out of the palace...

From the morning to the top of the tree on the moon, Wang Zhi took everyone to visit the ministers of the court headed by Zhou Yafu, including Lieutenant Zhidu, Zongzheng Weiwan, Gong Gaohou Han Duidang, Yushi doctor Yuan An and others... …

In the early morning of the second day, Zhou Yafu played the role, using "Song Xuangong's biography as his brother in the Spring and Autumn Period, which caused the Song Dynasty's ten generations of disasters" as a reference to oppose Emperor Jing's establishment of Liang Wang as the prince.After the early court, Jing Diqin Wang Changle Palace explained the attitude of all the ministers, and Empress Dowager Dou was silent for a while, dejectedly.

Three days later, Emperor Jing issued an edict in the main hall of Weiyang Palace to announce that Liu Yu, king of Jiaodong, would be crowned prince and renamed "Che", which means "transparent".He also worshiped Wei Wan as the crown prince's tutor, and Zhidu as the prince's Shaofu. At the same time, at the suggestion of Queen Mother Dou, he worshiped Xu Chang as the prince's Shaofu.

So far, the future Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che and his mother, the legendary woman Wang Zhi, have finally gained a firm foothold in this man-eating harem...
