Dahan first prince

Chapter 444 Why doesn't it count?
A little deliberately changed the topic, and excused 'something in hand', before the old lady had time to stay, Liu Ying left Changle Palace as if fleeing, urged the imperial chariot, and quickly drove back to Weiyang Palace .

After returning to Weiyang Palace, seeing the Xuanshi Palace she was familiar with, sitting on the imperial couch that had accompanied her for many years, Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and a big stone in her heart fell slightly.

——What Lu Zhi wants to do, Liu Ying can tell at a glance!

It's not that after these years of living together, Liu Ying has really reached a peak understanding of this mother;
But today's matter, Lu Zhi had a criminal record in Liu Ying's previous life!

"Why did the old lady still have that idea in this life?"

"Sigh~~~"

"It shouldn't be..."

Full of surprise, he sat up, stretched out his hand in hesitation, and rummaged under the imperial case;
Finding and wanting to find the bamboo slips, Liu Ying frowned, carefully flipping through the volume of "Chronology of Gonghou of Emperor Taizu Gao".

"Build Hou Luze..."

"—five thousand one hundred households..."

"Lihou Lutai..."

"——Two thousand two hundred households..."

"Hou Hou Lu Chan..."

"——[-] households..."

Carefully examining the bamboo slips in her hand, and counting with her fingers, Liu Ying already had a rough idea.

As the first generation of Lu's relatives, that is, the two males of the generation of the empress dowager Lu Zhi, the late Zhou Lv Ling Wuhou Lu Ze left behind two sons, Lu Tai and Lu Chan.

And these two sons were granted the titles of Marquis of Li and Marquis of Ming respectively by Emperor Taizu Gao because of Zhou Luling Wuhou Lu Ze's death in battle and death of the king.

As for Lu Shizhi, the Marquis of Jiancheng Kang who had just passed away a few years ago, he had three sons, Lu Ze, Lu Zhong, and Lu Lu.

Among them, the eldest son, Lu Ze, has inherited the title of Marquis of Jiancheng, and the second son, Lu Zhong, still serves as the guard of Changle Palace;

The youngest, Lu Lu, is in charge of all affairs on the Korean peninsula in the name of 'Andong County Sheriff'!
If you really want to talk about Lu's relatives, how many nephews and nephews are there, that is, these five people;
But among these five people, three of them are already in the ranks of Chehou...

"What does the empress mean..."

"Lu Lu?"

"Or to Lu Tai, Lu Chan, and Lu Zeyi?"

Full of doubts, Liu Ying asked twice, and finally threw the bamboo slips in her hand back to the imperial case, and lay down on the couch full of sorrow.

"Lu Tai, Lu Chan, and Lu Ze are all Marquis Che, so even if they want to be overthrown, there must be a reason for it?"

"I have to say that in the past few years, there was that person who made a little contribution and was able to reach the level of 'being a marquis on an excuse'..."

"—So that's Lu Lu?"

Thinking so, Liu Ying turned her body slightly, and took out another roll of bamboo slips from under the imperial case, lay on her side on the couch, and read them carefully.

Not the Lu family, except for Lu Lu, there are no other nephews who are 'not yet enshrined as Marquis';

But after her mother Lu Zhi, after the "convicts" in the previous life, she released a similar style of painting in this life, which made Liu Ying really dare not think about it.

Because even if you don't check the information, the composition of Lu's relatives is still engraved in Liu Ying's mind without any mistakes.

——Generation of the Lu family: Lu Taigong Lu Wen;
The second generation of the Lu family: Zhou Lvling Wuhou Lv Ze, Jiancheng Kanghou Lv Shizhi, female relatives LV Changju, LV Pheasant, and LV Wei.

Among the five brothers and sisters of the second generation, Lv Nai's marriage to Wuyang Hou Fan Kuai can be excluded for the time being.

The Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant did not give birth to a child of the "Lu family" like her elder sister Lu Changju, so it can also be ruled out.

But the remaining three brothers and sisters have spawned many, many "Three Generations of the Lu Family" children...

Zhou Lv ordered Wu Hou Lv Ze and Jian Jiankang Marquis Lv Shizhi, so there is no need to go into details: they contributed five "three generations" males, Lv Tai, Lv Chan, Lv Ze, Lv Zhong, and Lv Lu.

What needs to be emphasized is Lu Changju, who was unknown in the past, but in the aspect of "passing on the family line", he spread the branches and leaves for the Lu family, and did not seek quality, only quantity!
It is well known: Unlike the vast majority of women in this era, Lu Changju did not marry out, but from the age suitable for marriage, he recruited several son-in-laws one after another, that is, door-to-door son-in-law.

Most of these visiting sons-in-law were arrested and sent to build the Great Wall for violating the law after sowing seeds for Lu Changju.

— yes;
——Whether it was Ying Qin decades ago or Liu Han today, it is illegal for a man to marry a man.

And it's a felony!
Because a man becomes a matriarch, it means that the country loses a household registration and a family;
Moreover, it is also seriously inconsistent with the common concept of this era that a man enters the family and enters the door backwards.

It is also these son-in-laws who are willing to "spread branches and leaves" for the Lu family, so that Lu Changju, a female family member who used to be unobtrusive and leak-proof, has become the main force of the Lu family.

Lu Changju's eldest son: Lu Ping!

Son of Lu Ping: Lu Rong!
Lu Changju's cousin: Lu Ying!

Lu Ying's son: Lu Ta!
Lu Changju's second son: Lu Sheng!

Lu Changju's third son: Lu Gengshi!
Lu Changju's son-in-law: Lu Anger!

Counting with fingers, Lu Changju, a woman who 'has never been married in her life', has added seven men to the Lu family.

Lu Ze's two sons, Lu Shizhi's three sons, and Lu Changju's seven "nephews" together make up twelve people.

Enough exaggeration, right?
Hey······

——The fourth-generation nephew of the Lu family is on his way!

Lu Tai's eldest son: Lu Jia!
Lu Tai's second son: Lu Tong!
The third son of Lu Tai: Lu Zhuang!
Lu Chan's eldest son and second son;
Lu Ze's eldest son, second son, and youngest son;
Lu Zhong's eldest son;

Lu Lu's eldest son, second son, third son, youngest son...

Counting the four generations contributed by Lu Changju...

It is no exaggeration to say: Liu Ying is only 22 years old this year;

Among the men of Lu's relatives, there are no less than 17 men who are older than 20 years old, that is, men who are "similar to Liu Ying's age or older than Liu Ying"!

But today, in Changle Palace, in front of Liu Ying, the intention revealed by the old queen mother is undoubtedly to make Liu Ying secretly feel a little startled...
——King?
Hey!
It is impossible to become a king~
It is impossible to become king in this life~
I don’t know how to fight wars, so I can only maintain this kind of nepotism if I engage in this kind of nepotism~
Being a Chehou feels like going home. The feeling in Xuanshidian is much better than at home!
Everyone inside and outside the court and field is talented, and they speak nicely...
Cough cough cough cough...
All in all, it is just one sentence: Unless your surname is Liu, otherwise, don't talk about the word "Feng Wang"!
Neither can the Queen Mother, nor can Lu! !
it is good!guy~
He co-authored Emperor Taizu Gao and spent the entire seven years of his career as an emperor. Is it to make room for you foreign surnames?

These princes in the palace who are waiting to be fed are reserved for your foreign surnames to be horsemen?
no kidding······

This Han family, his surname is Liu~~~~
"Conferring the king without talking;"

"Feng Hou..."

"Um······"

"If the price is right, it can be negotiated..."

Lying alone on the imperial couch, talking to herself aimlessly, Liu Ying's expression became a little more relaxed.

It is true that before the death of Emperor Gao, the first ancestor, he once cut a white horse with Yuanxun Gonghou and made a blood oath: No Liu, no king, no meritorious service, no marquis; it is better to order, and the world will fight together.

Let the Yellow River be like a belt, and Mount Tai be like a stern, so that the country will last forever, reaching the Miao people.

Dividing the oath made by Emperor Taizu Gao when he made the oath on the white horse is actually three points;
——Anyone with the surname of Liu cannot be king;

——No meritorious service;

——That is, those who are kings and marquises will be hereditary and will not replace them, and they will rest with the country.

And these three oaths, the first one is absolutely non-negotiable: there is no need to consider whether someone's surname is Liu;

As for the third article, that is, "kings and marquises are hereditary without succession, and rest with the country", it is also unquestionable.

Because this is the promise made by the founding king of Liu Han Sheji to the founding fathers.

Even if it is just to protect the old face of Emperor Taizu Gao, this rule must be adhered to by future generations.

At the very least, they should take the heroes of Fenghou, Liuhou, Pingyanghou and other families to "restore their family" and "restore their country" from time to time, just to make a show.

Among the three oaths made by Emperor Taizu Gao, the only one that is worth pondering, and which leaves some room for manipulation, is undoubtedly the second one: unless you have meritorious service, you should not be a marquis.

Only those who have meritorious deeds can be Chihou, and those who have no merit must never be Chihou.

At first glance, this one seems to be the same as "non-Liu family must not be king", which is a basis for judgment without difficulty.

But the crux of the problem is: what does the credit here refer to?
As the heir personally selected by Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang, Liu Ying is of course very clear: the meaning of the first emperor is 'military merit'.

Only military merit can be called 'credit' by this seemingly lazy, but actually extremely arrogant founding king.

But right now, Emperor Taizu Gao has already been buried in Changling, and the grass on the grave has grown several feet high!

Who can make an accurate interpretation of the "meritorious service" here?
——Like Shaofu Wuhou Yangchengyan, he built Chang'an City, Changle and Weiyang palaces, and successively served as the chief engineer of Zhengguoqu and Fengqu. Is this considered credit?
Another thing: One day in the future, a big fool who had great luck descended to the Zhou Wangding, which had been lost for many years, by the river in a certain corner of the world!

Then this stupid big man who dedicated Zhou Ding to the center of the court and the Han Dynasty, is he credited?

After all, isn't it just Liu Ying's words?

——Liu Ying said yes, even if an ant is trampled to death, it can be advertised as "fighting on the battlefield" and "deadly fighting never retreating"!
On the contrary, Liu Ying said no, the crime of "stepping into the Xuanshi Hall with the left foot first when going to court" is enough to completely ruin a person's political career.

Although Liu Ying is unlikely to do such a dishonorable thing today, and does not need to use such rogue methods to achieve her goals, but the reason is that.

As for Liu Ying and Lu's reaching some unknown agreement, and paying the price of three or five titles of Marquis Che, it may seem a bit "disorderly life" suspicion;

But in fact, in addition to "Marquis of Wugong", it has been a long time since the emperor of the Han Dynasty named his relatives or his nephews as "Marquis of Enfeng".

——Not to mention anything else, just talk about the current King of Wu, Liu Bi, and Liu Bi's younger brother, Liu Guang.

These two brothers, have a fart credit for the Zongmiao Sheji? !
Not only was there no credit, the fathers of these two people were even acting as kings, and they had done something like 'fleeing on hearing the news' when the Huns invaded the country, abandoning the whole country and fleeing back to the Central Plains!
To be more honest, that is, when Liu Ying went out to fight in person to put down Huainan Wang Yingbu's rebellion, Liu Bi fought soy sauce in the side road army at that time.

and then?
——Liu Bi, the eldest son of the Marquis of Heyang, who made a round of soy sauce, was named Peihou by Emperor Taizu Gao!

——Peihou! ! !
——That's Peiyi! ! ! !
——It is the Longxing place where Emperor Taizu Gao started his family! ! ! ! !

If it's just that, then it's fine;
As a result, as soon as Yingbo's rebellion was put down, Liu Bi hadn't even warmed up his "Peihou" imperial edict, and was named King of Wu by the speed of light because of his "meritorious service in suppressing Huainan"!

Who do you turn to to reason with this matter?

Speaking of it, Liu Bi is pretty good - at least no matter how unbearable he is, he has indeed established some martial arts.

Although in fact, it was just a round of soy sauce in the process of calming down the chaos, and no specific martial arts were established at all, but a little whitewashing to the outside world, and a spring and autumn brushwork, can still be said to be Liu Bi's heroic killing. The enemy, because of meritorious deeds, seals the title of prince and king'.

But Liu Guang, Liu Bi's younger brother, is a real person sitting at home, happy from heaven.

——After Huainan Wang Yingbu's rebellion was put down, the freshly released Peihou Liu Bi was conferred the title of Wu Wang by the speed of light;

Afterwards, Emperor Taizu Gao slapped his forehead: Oops~
My second brother's two sons are actually not Chehou~
How does this work?
Now that the eldest is the king, then give the title of Marquis of Che to the second!
In this way, from the day of his birth to the moment Liu Bi was named king of Wu, he never did a single useful thing, even "helping my uncle, Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang trim his beard". Liu Guang, who has never done anything, was named a dehou...
Ah······

'De'hou··········
As long as the co-author is surnamed Liu, he can do nothing, and he has to be granted the title of "De" Hou...

Liu Ying naturally has a long-standing grudge against these two wonderful brothers, especially the Dehou Liu Guang of the "Heaven's Chehou Gift Package".

But then again, brothers Liu Bi and Liu Guang, especially the case of Dehou Liuguang, and other similar incidents, such as Gengjiehou Liu Xin and the like, are enough to prove that there will be no meritorious service, especially no meritorious service. Clan relatives who have no martial arts at all, are conferred the title of Marquis in the name of pure "ensurement", which is what Emperor Taizu Gao once did.

Emperor Taizu Gao did it, which naturally proves that Liu Ying imitated Emperor Taizu Gao, and there are precedents as reference and evidence.

As for the question of "the Lu family is not the Liu family, and the foreign relatives are not the clan relatives", for Liu Ying today, it is even more out of the question.

——Anyway, it's Enfeng, it doesn't matter if you have martial arts or not, relatives from your natal family are not relatives?
Um······

Why not?
