[Hanwu] Attack and retreat

Although the records in the historical documents are incomplete, the Empress Dowager Dou at this time should try her best to ease the relationship between the King of Liang and the emperor. Why would she dream of getting rid of Liu Che?

Chen Xu couldn't figure it out, but he didn't think that because of his relationship, the history would have been different, and Queen Dowager Dou is a person who can't help herself, so she naturally has plans.The people sent by Chen Xu haven't responded yet, Empress Dowager Dou has already made a move.

That day when Chen Wu came back from the afternoon, his expression was very bad, and he called Chen Xu into the study before he even had time to eat the snacks made by Liu Xing.

Chen Xu looked at Chen Wu walking around in the study frowning, and asked, "What happened?"

Chen Wu sighed and said, "You are too hasty."

Chen Xu suddenly felt bad. "What? The Queen Mother really did it? So fast."

"If you hadn't attacked King Liang so quickly, you wouldn't have made her anxious." Chen Wu said, "Xu'er, you have always been very prudent and calm in doing things, why are you so impatient this time?"

Chen Xu: "..." If he said that he acted so boldly because he already knew Liu Che was the emperor, would he be beaten by Chen Wu until Liu Che didn't know him?

"The empress dowager has been in power for so many years, and even the emperor wants to sell her face. Do you think she is easy to get along with?" Chen Wu shook his head and sighed. "Her methods..."

"Father." Chen Xu also sighed: "Don't always make others want to destroy your own prestige, but talk about what the Queen Mother has done, maybe we still have a solution."

"It's too late. The Empress Dowager praised the Crown Prince early today, and all the officials agreed, and even the Emperor praised the Crown Prince." Chen Wu sat down on the chair angrily.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Since the incident with King Liang, the emperor's attitude towards Liu Che has also changed. He no longer looks at Liu Che like a chess piece, but treats him as his own son.

"If only the emperor said that, it would be a good thing. All the people have not counted the good things the prince has done during this period, and the queen mother has lost her temper and asked the emperor to hand over a team of forbidden troops to the prince for management."

The Forbidden Army is directly under the Emperor. To mobilize the Forbidden Army, not only the emperor's imperial decree, but also special military orders are required.Chen Xu said: "The Empress Dowager is planning to use the Imperial Army to make a fuss?"

"It's a matter of using military orders." Chen Wudao: "The Forbidden Army is directly under the Emperor, and the crown prince's military order for the Forbidden Army is obviously a proof that the Emperor highly values ​​it, but how can the Queen Mother let the Prince command the Forbidden Army smoothly?"

"The empress dowager makes a fuss about the military order. If we handle it properly, isn't it a good opportunity for the crown prince to take over the military power?"

"How could it be so easy? Although the emperor agreed to the queen mother's proposal, the military order has not yet been sent to the prince."

"Since the emperor has agreed, why..."

"Of course, the general order was handed over to the prince in the early court, but it was packed in a small box, and the crown prince couldn't open it right away...I'm afraid there is nothing in the box."

"No, why did the Queen Mother bring an empty box?" Liu Che pushed open the door of the study and rushed in, holding a wooden box in his hand.He closed the door, and said to Chen Wu and Chen Xu: "She did not hesitate to release the military power of the imperial army to lure me to the gallows, how could she let me be lost?"

"So there is something? Then why do you still act like the queen mother is not the queen mother if she doesn't frame her?" Chen Xu frowned: "Is the military order fake?"

"Look." Liu Che opened the box and handed it to Chen Xu, who almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Carrot head print, isn't this too casual?No, this is too bloody, right?This bridge seems to have appeared in many TV dramas.

"I probably know that I have seen the real military order, so I deliberately made it look like this." Liu Che sighed: "I opened it secretly as soon as I went to the court, but I didn't find it was fake at first glance. I only found out when I went to the house."

"So the Queen Mother's next step is to ask you to take out military orders?" Chen Xu took the carrot seal in his hand and looked at it. "Is this copied by the Queen Mother? Why don't we copy one too?"

"As soon as I found out that it was a fake, I wanted to ask my master to imitate it, but the Queen Mother had already prepared for it, so I couldn't find a master at all... Not only did this matter need to be done in secret, but I also had to find a master with good craftsmanship. It was really difficult for me." Liu Che went straight to the table and poured a glass of water. "I didn't expect her to be so ruthless with her hands."

"The emperor must have found something wrong." Chen Xu pinched the radish seal, thinking about it.

"He didn't react at all, as if he didn't know what the Queen Mother had done." Liu Che said, "His health is not very good, maybe he wants to use this to see whether I am qualified to sit in his seat."

In this case, the queen mother cannot be allowed to succeed.

"The prince can still laugh at this time, must have found a way?" Chen Wu stared at Liu Che, but Liu Che shrugged.Chen Wu: "...the prince doesn't think about anything, does he?"

"Yes, there are three ways now, first, find a trustworthy craftsman to imitate, but the craftsmen in the vicinity may have been called away by the queen mother; second, I will send someone to the palace to take out the real one, but the queen mother must be prepared , and I don’t know exactly where it is; three, I will directly apologize to my father, although I am a prince, but I lost my military order and staff for thirty years, and I was exiled from the army for one year. Which one do you think is better?"

Chen Wu: "Don't tell the emperor about this matter. If the emperor has seen this matter long ago, he should want to see how the prince can properly handle this matter and get back the military order."

"Then we can only send someone to take it out. I'm going to ask my mother to find out."

"There's no need to take such a risk." Chen Xu smiled and said, "We can choose the first method."

"Do you know craftsmen who know how to imitate?" Liu Che raised his eyebrows. "Even Zhang Qian doesn't know how to imitate military orders." Zhang Qian is not only obsessed with all kinds of items in the Western Regions, but also knows how to make them, but if he really has to do it...

"It's just a mere military order." Chen Xu tossed the carrot seal for fun. "If the queen mother sees the military order I made, she will definitely regret finding someone to imitate this radish seal."

Before he had time to enjoy Liu Che and Chen Wutou's surprise eyes, Chen Xu heard his elder brother shout: "Didn't you say to make me a painted pottery elephant? Why did it become a military order again? It's really amazing!"

"Don't make trouble, can't I be a baby elephant when I am a military order?"

"The little elephant came by the way?"

"Then be a baby elephant and be a military order by the way."

Seeing Chen Xu paused, Liu Che asked, "I didn't hear that you still have this skill. I heard Zhang Qian said that imitation requires a lot of things. Is there still time for us to make it now?"

"You don't need too many things, as long as you have materials and a stove." Chen Xu said, "I'll start to make it right now, and it will be ready in about an hour."

"So fast?" Chen Wu was extremely surprised.

"This is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. I can't play games." This is his old profession. If he wants to imitate a radish seal, he can easily do it. If it is in his house, he can do it in less than an hour.

The elder brother trembled in Chen Xu's mind. "Don't forget how you died."

Chen Xu: "..." Crow's mouth.
