Big Han Weiyang

Liu Rong's uncle wrote a letter asking Li Ji to be made queen. Will Liu Rong and Li Ji's lives be in danger?This sounds too ridiculous.

How could Emperor Jing hurt the lives of Liu Rong and Li Ji?

Liu Rong thought this, probably because Li Ji oppressed him too much these years, which made him suspicious.

In autumn, the days are getting shorter and the stone steps are cold.

Now that Dou Ying has left, there is no need for us to stay here.

I helped Liu Rong up, patted the leaves on him, and ordered the servants to send him back to the womb.Liu Rong's eyes were lifeless, and he didn't respond to everything around him.

Scanning the accompanying readers around Liu Rong one by one, some of them wiped their tears and sighed in sorrow, and some of them showed that the matter had nothing to do with themselves.

Liu Zhi couldn't see it, so he volunteered to send Liu Rong off. After cleaning up a bit, he left with him.I guess he did this because of Han Yan.

Han said that to me, he is not so much a companion as a personal servant.Big and small things inside and outside, as long as he can do, I will give him to do it.After getting the right to use Han Yan, I immediately and generously stopped driving Han Shuo, and ordered Han Yan to do his best instead.

Seeing the little boy clumsily put away the bamboo slips, knives and pens, and wiped the table case, I found it very interesting.

Han said that he didn't dare to help because of my orders, and because of Han Yan's vague expulsion and impatience, he wanted to approach but didn't dare to approach, so he seemed timid.

I hated Han Shuo and dragged him away: "Didn't Han Yan look down on you very much? He never looked at you, and he didn't like to talk to you. Now I'm letting him be driven by you, why are you still the same as before?" The same bluntly leaned forward. My face is completely lost."

The sun was setting and the sky was getting darker. Lanterns were lit early in the corridor, and the red light faded away the bleakness.When we passed by, the palace people bowed their knees and waited on both sides of the aisle.

Han said biting his lip, looked up at me timidly and said, "Your Highness, he is my elder brother after all."

His useless appearance made me unable to speak out the reprimand I had prepared, and I threw away his clothes bitterly.

Han Yan was holding a large pile of bamboo slips and was struggling to catch up with us.Except for Han Shuo, the accompanying readers formed a faint circle, watching with a smile on their faces.

Han said hesitantly: "Your Highness, can I help Han Yan?"

"Go, go." I shook my head helplessly, knowing that filial piety is also a good thing.

Han said with a happy face, walked two steps and came back, "Thank you, Your Highness."

At the other end of the corridor, Tian Fu walked with his long sleeves in the wind, with a smile on his face, and Su Xiang, who came from the other end, met in a corridor. "Suxiang? You're not staying in Pixiang Temple, what are you doing here?"

I was equally puzzled.

"Lord Tian, ​​the Fourteenth Prince is clamoring to see His Royal Highness Guangchuan, but he will not listen to any persuasion. Madam Wang asked the servants to take the Fourteenth Prince's Xuanshi Hall to look at His Highness from a distance." Suxiang said, "Hey, Prince Your Highness, don't run so fast."

The child wrenched out of her arms and ran forward.

Tian Fu scooped up the child from the ground and tossed it up and down a few times. The child happily said, "Uncle, it's fun."

Tian Fu said: "Look at how obedient this child is. When Liu Yue and Liu Zhi were so old, they were already two monsters in the world. He threw the jade bracelet and heard the sound, sneaked out of the palace, played tricks on the palace people, bullied the brothers, and Burnt my beard."

Han Yan burst out laughing, and Han said that she covered her mouth and snickered.

"Uncle!" I walked up to him.

Tian Fu smiled and said, "Uncle was frightened by you at that time, you see, he hasn't grown a beard until now."

"Brother, brother." The child leaned out from Tian Fu's arms and raised his chubby little hands.

I took him.This smiling innocent face seemed quite strange to me.Except for festivals, I haven't seen him a few times. Fortunately, he actually knew that I was his brother.What's his name, Liu... By the way, Liu Shun, Shun of Yao and Shun.

"He can't even count how many older brothers he has, how could he be clamoring to see me." I looked at Suxiang suspiciously.

"Brother." Liu Shun put his arms around my neck, making a gesture to kiss me, leaving saliva on my face with a slap.Fortunately, I got out of the way in time, otherwise I might have kissed on the mouth.

I rubbed Liu Shun's head, hugged him from behind and returned it to Suxiang: "Go back, don't bring him to Xuanshidian in the future." Suxiang said yes, turned around and left.

"Brother—" Liu Shun pouted.

"Uncle is so happy today, is there any happy event?"

Tian Fu smiled and said: "Uncle went to persuade a fool today to jump off the wall by himself, but he happily agreed. Yes, it's like the last time you and Liu Zhi jumped from the palace wall. Like jumping down."

Tian Fu always loves that this matter exposes my shortcoming. "Why persuade the man to jump?"

"It's not for you and Liu Zhi." Tian Fu squeezed my cheek and said, "Hey, why am I telling you this? You should not know about such things. By the way, why do you Not studying in the study?"

"Brother Liu Rong said that his life might be in danger. Cousin Dou Ying hurried away after hearing his words, and we had nothing to do if we stayed."

Tian Fu sneered and said, "Dou Ying? He found out too late. Yue'er, hurry back to Pixiang Palace, and don't play around with Zhu'er again. Remember, be safe these two days."

"Uncle," I called to stop Tian Fu who left in a hurry, "if the person you mentioned is okay if he jumps off? Didn't Ah Shu and I be fine last time?"

Tian Fu said proudly: "Then help him stand taller, as long as he stands high enough, no one can't fall to his death."

Dou Ying's efforts were ineffective, and early the next day, what should have happened still happened.

In the early court, Liu Zhishi and I sat on the left side of Emperor Jing.The civil and military officials below the imperial steps knelt and sat on both sides of the hall.

Passing through the gap between Emperor Jing's crown and the black court clothes, I saw Liu Rong who was fighting hard.The white prince's suit made him look empty, and he didn't know how much he had lost weight these days.

After discussing Emperor Jing's mausoleum, the early court is almost over.

"What else is there to play today?"

Dou Ying gave Liu Rong's uncle Li Ben winks several times, but Li Ben pretended not to notice, and he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something important to announce."

"Empress Bo has no sons and was deposed last year. The emperor has established a prince for several years, but he has never established a queen. If there is no master in the harem, etiquette is ruined. The ministers think that the emperor should establish a queen as soon as possible."

Zhou Taiwei and several ministers came out and said: "The post has been vacant for a long time, and the ministers are also deeply disturbed."

When Zhou Taiwei said the word "Chen Waiting", Emperor Jing's face was expressionless, but he quickly tapped his knee with his index finger.

He narrowed his eyes and said in the usual tone: "Then Li Ben, who do you think should be the queen in the harem?"

Liu Zhi and I looked at each other, based on my knowledge of Emperor Jing, this is definitely the prelude to his impending explosion.

Li Ben said: "The ministers think that it is inappropriate for the mother of the current crown prince not to be in the right position. Please make Li Ji the empress quickly."

Behind him, Zhou Taiwei and a group of officials also bowed at the same time.

Except for the breeze blowing in from the open hall door, the atmosphere in the whole hall was oppressive for a while.

Liu Rong's face was pale and he was on the verge of falling.

Emperor Jing's complexion was gloomy and his breathing was uneven. He glanced coldly at Liu Rong beside him, and then stared deeply at the few courtiers under his highness. He pressed the hilt of his waist with his hand, and almost drew his sword. Finally, he held back. He patted the table and said, "Li Ben, you want me to make your sister a queen?"

Li Ben took a step forward and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the ministers do not avoid relatives, and all the officials think so."

Emperor Jing's hands trembled in anger. He pointed at Li Ben and said angrily: "Hundred officials? You are a foreign relative who not only dictates my family affairs, but also dares to form a party to persecute me? Someone, arrest Li Ben, and serve as a court officer!" "

Zhou Taiwei, who went out with Li Ben, did not expect Emperor Jing to lose his temper.

"Your Majesty!" Li Ben turned pale with shock, "Your Majesty, this minister did not form a party. This is really everyone's intention."

The ministers who came out stepped back one after another, watching their noses and noses, trying their best to avoid eye contact with Li Ben.

"Even the eldest princess thinks so!" Li Ben said something incomprehensible, and was dragged away from the hall by four guards.

"Retire!" Emperor Jing got up and walked away.

The ministers who were left in the hall were relieved.Dou Ying gave Liu Rong a complicated look, and left dejectedly.

Tian Fu left with a smile like a spring breeze.

"...As long as you stand high enough, no one will survive the fall."

Suddenly recalled what Tian Fu said yesterday.Those unclear words were somewhat similar to today's situation.

It was no big deal for Li Ben to ask Emperor Jing to make Li Ji his queen.At most, it is nothing more than cutting officials and reprimanding them.However, the support of Taiwei Zhou and all the officials set up a high platform for him to fall and die.

He thought that with the support of many ministers, Emperor Jing would agree.Little did he know that in the eyes of Emperor Jing, this was forming a party for personal gain and shaking the imperial power.And imperial power is the inverse scale that every emperor must never touch.

Liu Rong was deprived of the position of prince that day and abolished as the king of Linjiang.

Perhaps this is already a good result.

For three days, Liu Rong was locked in the Tai's womb, and no one was allowed to see him.Dou Ying, as the prince and Taifu, had no prince to teach, so he resigned in anger and went home.Liu Zhi and I had nothing to do until we learned that Liu Rong would go to the fief tomorrow morning.

Finally, Emperor Jing allowed us to see him off.When we arrived at Que Gate, the sky had just dawned.

The numerous stone bricks that make up the gate have experienced wind and rain, and the ancient gray blue has precipitated, and I don’t know how many descendants of the Liu family who grew up in Weiyang Palace have been sent away.

Several carriages were parked in front of the door, and brown or white horses stamped their hoofs in small steps.Hundreds of sergeants guarded around the carriage seemingly casually.

Wearing the royal clothes of the princes, Liu Rong solemnly prostrated himself three times in the direction of Weiyang Palace.

He saw us when he got up and smiled slightly.Now that Liu Rong is no longer the crown prince, although the worry on his brows remains undiminished, he seems relieved and his expression is much more relaxed.

"A Yue, Ah Zhu, are you here to see me off? How is my mother?" Liu Rong and Li Ji were put under house arrest separately and never saw each other.

Liu Zhi opened his mouth, but did not speak.I replied to him: "Brother Liu Rong, Niang Niang is fine now."

"Ah, are you wondering why I don't blame her? After all, she is my mother. Everything she does, even if she does something wrong, is always for my own good. What I am looking forward to most now is that after my father's hundred years, I can Take mother to Linjiang for reunion."

"His Royal Highness Linjiang, please hurry up, the time has come." An officer said.

Liu Zhi and I frowned.Although he called His Royal Highness Linjiang King, he didn't show any respect at all, instead it was like calling a prisoner.

"The widow knows." Liu Rong replied, and then smiled wryly at us: "I really would rather not have been this prince. After being a humble dog, being beaten back to its original shape and stepped into the mud is better than being just grass at the beginning. It’s ten times harder to come.”

"This prince is not what I wanted to be. The emperor pushed me into this position in order to dispel grandma's idea of ​​establishing the king of Liang. Now he doesn't want me to do it, so he exiles me far away. I've been doing it all the time, so why set me up. I'm his son, isn't it just a discarded pawn in his heart."

None of Liu Rong's previous companions came to see him off, and he couldn't appeal to Li Ji, so these words must have been held back in his heart for a long time.

He closed his eyes and sighed, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "I shouldn't complain about this to you. I'm leaving, Ah Yue, Ah Shu, help me take care of my mother once in a while, okay?"

"Also, I made a joke when I was young and asked you to jump off the palace wall. I'm really sorry."

I shook my head: "It's just a joke, everyone knows it."

"I really want to listen to Taifu Dou's scriptures in the upper study with you again. It's a pity that I can't now."

We watched the former prince's carriage go away until the black spot disappeared at the end of the junction between the road and the pale sky.

"A Yue, I don't think the world is benevolent, and the sentence of treating everything as a humble dog is not interpreted in this way." Looking at the empty distant road, Liu Zhi thought about it and said, "There are all living beings in the world, each with their own talents, but they are unknown. What the sage does is just It is to sense the current situation, select people who are suitable for this era, and make them become heroes of the moment."

"It seems to make sense. Then you mean that brother Liu Rong is not the right person to guide the current situation, so he was abandoned and exiled?" I turned back to the palace with him.

Liu Zhi scratched his head with a smile: "I didn't expect so much, I just expressed my feelings."
