Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 175

The voice of Emperor Gao could be heard faintly in the Jiaofang Hall.

Many of the attendants stopped and listened with some nostalgia.

When Emperor Gao was still alive, this kind of singing could be heard all over the palace, but now, it can only be heard in the Jiaofang Hall.

"Let you mobilize the army! Let you be ordered to seek thieves!"

"Ah~~"

"Let you do things without negotiating with me!"

When Empress Lu said that she would clean up you in the future, Liu Chang thought it was just to scare himself, but he never thought that when he happily returned to Jiaofang Palace, his mother was really waiting for him with a wooden stick. See you. At that scene, Liu Chang turned around and was about to run, but Empress Lu had already made adequate preparations. Four or five valet blocked the door, leaving Liu Chang no way to escape.

Next, of course, is the much-loved Taizu singing session.

Empress Lu was really angry this time. If Liu Ying hadn't married a few years earlier, Empress Lu might not have beaten Liu Ying together, but now that Liu Ying has become the emperor, Chang Liu has to bear all the firepower alone.

Empress Lu hates those things that are beyond her control. She hopes that everything in the palace can be carried out under the circumstances that she knows, and at the same time, she hopes that everything will not be beyond her control. To put it simply, Empress Lu would not forcibly interfere with Liu Ying and Liu Chang's decision, but she had to let her know that it was to the extent that Empress Lu could end this matter.

She warned again and again that if you dare to mess up again next time, you will break your legs!
Empress Lu left angrily. Chang Liu knew that she was going to clean up her second brother. If it wasn't for her butt injury, she would have followed her. It's better to let the second brother take a few blows too. If you do it together, you will be alone if you are beaten?

Fan Qing lowered his head and applied medicine for him seriously.

"Why does your aunt always beat you?"

"How do I know? Maybe it's because I'm too similar to my father, and my grandmother hates my grandfather. So when she sees me, she wants to fight."

"I shouldn't have made my aunt angry."

"Do I need you to teach me?"

Liu Chang said angrily: "Tomorrow you go help me send a letter to Zhou Shengzhi and Xiahouzao, I can't go out to play these days and let them take care of my horse, except Xiahouzao, everyone else can take my horse with me. Out of town. Oh, yes, I got some hay the day before yesterday, in the second bucket in the backyard barn."

"Tell Zhou Shengzhi to cover the bucket after feeding the horse, don't be like last time!"

"Oh then can I ride that big white horse?"

"Uh, you? Okay, rub my shoulders for half an hour, and I'll let you ride!"

"it is good!!"

Empress Lv did not clean up Liu Ying as Liu Chang thought. After Empress Lv arrived at Ganquan Palace, she picked up her grandson, and there was no displeasure on her face. Empress Cao respectfully greeted Empress Lv's attitude towards Empress Cao. He was also very gentle, and said with a smile, "You can't be unhappy because of the temple!"

Empress Cao hurriedly said: "My wife, it is enough to take good care of your beloved and children."

Empress Lu's face suddenly looked a little ugly. Empress Cao knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, and said, "It's just that I'm a first-time mother, and I don't know anything. I will have to help me in the future."

Empress Lu nodded and said nothing. Liu Ying stood by, bowed her head, and said nothing.Even though he was stronger towards the ministers, he still didn't dare to say much in the face of Empress Lu. The fear of his grandmother seemed to occupy his entire body and mind.

"Ying, you did a very good job this time."

Empress Lu gave Liu Ying a rare praise, and Liu Ying hurriedly paid her respects, "My son. I can't bear the praise of my mother."

Seeing Liu Ying's uneasy look, Empress Lv immediately did not want to speak any more. Neither Liu Ying nor Empress Cao spoke. The palace was quiet, Empress Lv shook her grandson, looked at Empress Cao again, and ordered Said: "When sleeping, it is best to tie the child's hands and feet and let him sleep upright, otherwise the legs will be easily crooked when they grow up."

"only!"

Empress Cao hurriedly took orders.

Empress Lu was silent for a long time, and then she looked at Liu Jian who was watching here not far away, "Did you bring Jian as well?"

However, seeing Empress Lu watching, even the young Liu Jian didn't dare to speak. He lowered his head and hid behind Empress Cao, Empress Cao smiled awkwardly.

"Mother. He is really lonely. So I took it over. He is very good on weekdays."

It was quiet in Ganquan Palace. Empress Lu didn't say anything. After handing over her grandson to Liu Ying, she turned and left Ganquan Palace. Everyone said goodbye.

When Empress Lv walked out of Ganquan Palace, she vaguely heard Liu Jian's commotion and everyone's laughter coming from Ganquan Palace.

Empress Lu stopped abruptly, her face was cold and her eyes were cold.

She stood for a moment and left quickly before the attendant could ask.

When Empress Lu walked into the Jiaofang Palace, she happened to see Fan Qing pinching her shoulders for Liu Chang, who was proudly lying on the bed and raised his head.When Empress Lu saw this scene, she frowned and scolded, "Staying here so late? Aren't you afraid of your mother's worries?!"

Fan Qing was stunned for a moment, and said aggrievedly: "I will apply medicine to Chang"

"go home!"

Liu Chang was surprised to see Fan Qing, who had always been favored, leave pitifully, and shouted, "She hasn't been pinched for half an hour, why did my mother drive her away!"

"What? Why don't you go with her too!"

"Let's go! I'll go back to Tang Country tomorrow! I'll never come back!!"

Liu Chang didn't turn his head to look at his mother, but after a while, Liu Chang suddenly touched his stomach and said dumbly, "Mother. I haven't eaten at night."

The mother and son were eating together, and Liu Chang devoured the food, saying as he ate, "Now I have the prime minister Zhang Cang, the imperial censor Zhu Jian, and the chief captain Li Zuoche and the three masters, and we are just short of Jiuqing Luan Bu. , Zhang Budo, Jibu, and Duke Zhao can all be Jiuqing, but there is still a gap of five."

"In addition, we have six counties in Tang, and we still need six county guards."

"I still need eleven talents."

"However, Ren Ao, the governor of Shangdang County, Sun Chi, the governor of Taiyuan County, and Zhang Xiangru, the governor of Shangjun County are all very powerful people. Each of them has a marquis. I don't plan to replace them. personal."

Empress Lu glanced at him, "Are you planning to set up another temple?"

"Mother, Zhao Yan, the governor of Hejian County, is a very powerful person. It is too wasteful to stay in Zhao country. Can you let him come to Tang country to serve as the governor of Yunzhong?"

"Hehe, in these days, you have insulted Zhao State several times, seized its war horses, and collected its people's power, but I have never stopped you. Now you are even taking the county governor away?! Your Tang State is a vassal state, isn't Zhao State ?"

Liu Chang grinned, did not speak, and continued to lower his head to cook.

Looking at Liu Chang who was gobbling down, Empress Lu suddenly asked, "Can I go to Tang Kingdom later?"

"what?"

Liu Chang raised his head, looked at Empress Lu blankly, and asked, "What?"

"It's nothing."

"Hahaha, I heard that, mother is not willing to part with me? Don't worry, mother. When I go to Tang country, I will pick you up with me. I have an army of 80 in Tang country. Whoever dares to object, I will directly send you He captured Tang to build a palace for me!"

Liu Chang was very proud, "I knew, how could my mother let me go for such an excellent child? Don't worry, mother! I will build you a Jiaofang Palace in the best place in Taiyuan! Just follow It’s exactly the same here, every day I’ll go to the Jiaofang Palace to find you after I have finished the court discussion!”

Listening to Liu Chang chattering about his future plans, Empress Lu just listened carefully and did not interrupt him.

Liu Chang was full, lying on the bed, his face full of enjoyment, chatting with Empress Lu.

"The queen is really amazing. It hasn't been long since we got married, and your elder brother has already obeyed her words."

Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, before he said, "How wonderful. Big brother, he does some jerk from time to time. If sister-in-law can persuade him, it will be a good thing."

The snow gradually melted, and although it was the season for the recovery of all things, the weather was still a little cold. This was the best season for Qun Xian.

The desolate Chang'an City gradually recovered, and the pedestrians finally appeared.

"At that time, when I saw that Shen Shiqi dared to be disrespectful to my brother, I was furious and rushed up. At that time, Mo Ru's father brought eight hundred soldiers to stop me. , to capture Shen Shiqi and Mo Ru's father alive, everyone was amazed, and my brother praised: "What a fighter! After that, I will command the Northern Army and serve as a captain, and I will refuse!"

Liu Chang was bragging as usual, and the sages listened attentively and applauded from time to time.

"The great thing that the king did at a young age, the historian will record these things in the history books in the future, and it will definitely make future generations admire it!"

Zhou Shengzhi hurriedly started to flatter, Liu Chang nodded proudly, and was suddenly taken aback. Logically speaking, shouldn't Lu Lu follow Zhou Shengzhi at this time?Why didn't you speak?
Liu Chang looked around and asked in surprise, "Where's Lu? Why didn't he come?"

Not far away, Lu Zhong said in a low voice, "Brother Lu is recovering in the mansion."

"Ah? Recuperate? What's wrong with him?"

Zhou Shengzhi said disdainfully, "I've heard about this. It is said that some officials from other places asked Chengcheng Hou to impeach him, saying that he condoned his son's troubles, and that Lu Lu was outside Chang'an and was domineering and bullying with his brother Lu Chan. Officials, seizing the people's daughters, I never imagined that he is such a person, and you should not interact with him again in the future!"

Liu Chang looked at Lu Chong in surprise, "Is there anything else?"

"My grandfather was so angry that he questioned him several times. Brother Lu shouted that he was wronged, and his grandfather was furious. He hung him up and beat him, and now he can't stay in bed."

"Forehead"

Liu Chang was at a loss for words, and Xia Houzao asked curiously, "Is he really wronged?"

"At first, I also thought he was wronged, but the person who came to complain was not just one time. This is the third time. I think this is probably what he did."

A few people were talking about this curiously. Liu Chang frowned, but he was thinking: No, next time I go out, I have to change my name, or Lu Lu will be beaten to death by his uncle sooner or later.

He pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhou Shengzhi who was on the side, and said earnestly, "Shengzhi, I'm going to suffer you."

Zhou Shengzhi didn't realize how serious the matter was at the moment, he smiled and patted his chest, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Lu Lu is not here, I will do everything! I don't act like Lu Lu! Don't be evil!!"

Just when a few people were laughing and playing in the mansion, Xiao Yan hurriedly walked in through the side door and walked quickly to Liu Chang.

"Why are you here so late?"

Xiao Yan did not speak, tears suddenly fell.

Liu Chang hurriedly stood up, "Why are you crying? What's wrong?"

"Father wants to see the king."

The aged Xiao He was lying on the couch, breathing weakly, dying.

Every time he took a breath seemed to be very difficult. After taking a deep breath, before the breath was fully inhaled, it was interrupted by a few meaningless moans.

Liu Chang knelt down beside him and held Xiao He's hand with a very solemn expression.

"Go out. Tang Wang left his forehead~~~", Xiao He said half a sentence, and took a deep breath.

The eldest son Xiao Lu wiped his tears and whispered, "Father."

Liu Changda shouted: "Didn't you hear?! Let me go out!!"

Xiao He and Liu Chang were left alone in the house, Xiao He turned his head with difficulty, and Liu Chang helped him so that he could see himself.

"Long Huns."

"Xiao Xiang rest assured, with me, I will never let the Huns cross the Great Wall. I swear to block them, sooner or later, I will capture Mao Dun alive!"

"The Huns are big. Small battles can't be determined by one battle."

"I understand, I will save my strength, and I will be fatal in the first battle...Xiao Xiang, you don't need to say more, I know, you take good care of your body, I will go to the Huns in the future, you have to give me food and grass. "

Xiao He still looked at Liu Chang, who was so thin that he could hardly see the expression on his face.

"Chang Lu, Lu."

Liu Chang fell silent, "The prime minister and the disciples of the Lu family are all my friends. They don't dare to have any ideas. If anyone dares to trample on my Liu family, I will definitely defeat them."

"No..Civil War"

"I know that no matter what, Tang's army will not attack Chang'an."

"Long princes."

"I'm watching. The princes don't dare to sit on the throne. Xiao Xiang, don't worry anymore."

"Han Xin."

"Uh," Xiao He took a deep breath, his face full of deep fatigue, "Han"

Liu Chang held Xiao He's hand and stroked it gently, "The big man will become stronger and stronger, the foreign enemies will be swept away, and there will be no worries inside. The Dahan will have hundreds of years of peace and the common people will live better and better and can wear it in winter. If you can afford clothes, no one will freeze to death or starve to death. Officials will not dare to bully the people again. The soldiers are brave, and the ministers are public.”

"Children can live a healthy and happy life. Old people can enjoy family happiness. Brothers are harmonious"

"The grains piled up in the grain depots are like mountains. Every family's grain bins are full. The children wear warm clothes, and their grandfathers play with them."

Just as Liu Chang spoke softly, Xiao He slowly closed his eyes. He seemed to see the prosperity Liu Chang was talking about, the corners of his mouth slowly raised, with a smile as always.

"boom."

The door was pushed open.

When Liu Chang came out, the people outside the door looked at him with anxiety and fear in their eyes.

"Xiao Xiang is asleep."

Xiao Lu was stunned for a moment, and then he rushed into the house. At that moment, there was a heart-wrenching cry in the house.

Liu Chang was in tears, hugging Xiao Yan who was crying bitterly, but couldn't say a word.

After assisting Liu Bang for decades, Xiao Xiang finally followed Liu Bang's footsteps and left this world.

Among the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, only Xiao He was the eldest. Since Liu Bang's death, his health has deteriorated day by day. Perhaps he had expected this day, Xiao He had already made all preparations for his funeral and burial. Xiao He has already made arrangements for this matter.It can only be said that this Prime Minister, whether he is alive or after leaving, will not let others worry about him.

Xiao He has great prestige among the people. In the second half of his life, almost every decree he implemented was for the people.

Therefore, when Xiao He died, the entire Chang'an people spontaneously mourned for him and cried a lot.

All the brothers came to help Xiao Yan deal with the funeral, help to welcome the mourning people, and help transport the remains, etc. Xiao He only has two children, so he can't carry the coffin. Fortunately, Xiao Yan There are many brothers who are willing to send Xiang Xiang off with the gift of their children.

From the emperor to the ministers, they all feel sad for Xiao He's death.

Cao Can also appeared here and personally saw Xiao He off.

After observing the filial piety, Xiao Lu said goodbye to the people who came and went, and Xiao Yan just stood not far away, wiping tears.

"Don't be afraid. Your father didn't leave. He just went to my father for a drink."

Liu Chang put his arms around Xiao Yan's shoulders and said loudly, "Maybe he is still persuading my grandfather to let my grandfather drink less!"

Xiao Yan said in a low voice, "Father has been talking about the king's affairs all these days. He said that we would never let him worry."

Liu Chang listened carefully to Xiao Yan's story.

After spending a few more days with Xiao Yan, Chang Liu went to Han Xin's mansion.

Han Xin looked a little sullen and his eyes were cold.

"Master. Xiang Xiang is gone."

"I know."

"Why is this Master?"

"I'm asking to see Xiang Xiang off, but the Queen Mother will not allow it."

"Master, just take care of seeing him off in your heart. These ceremonies are all done by Shusuntong. Before Shusuntong, was there no one to mourn?"

Liu Chang said, picked up the bamboo slip, and said, "I didn't expect that Master still cares about Xiao Xiang so much. He has always filed for your execution, even before his death... I thought Master hated him very much."

"He is a state affairs, why should there be any complaints?"

"Okay, Master, let's continue with the class, it's time to talk about siege warfare today."

Han Xin looked down at him, "Why don't you look sad at all?"

"Sadness? What's the use of being sad now? Can you still bring Xiang Xiang back?"

"With this spare time, it would be better to let yourself grow even more. Before Xiang Xiang died, he explained to me a lot of things. If I can do it, it will be the best memory for Xiang Xiang!"

"You can read it." Han Xin looked at him and nodded approvingly, "It seems that you have indeed grown up."

"That's natural! I've long passed the age of crying. Even if Master... ahem, let's continue to study."

Han Xin said with a stern face, "Xiao Xiang used to regard me as an enemy, but now you have my teaching, Tang Guo is powerful, he is dedicated to the temple, and he must be afraid of you because of this. I don't believe that he was not prepared before his death. You Look at it. You will soon be able to feel Xiao Xiang's means."

"Ah?? Xiao Xiang will deal with me? Before he died, he told me about his funeral. How could he deal with me?"

"Don't worry, you'll know when the time comes."

Liu Chang's eyes widened, "Why is he afraid of me because of the temple in his heart?? Does he also think that I will fail in a rebellion?"

"You don't rebel. Where's your child? Where's your grandson?"

"If it develops like this, within 20 years, the momentum of the Tang Kingdom will be unstoppable. When you are gone, and His Majesty is gone, if the temple wants to weaken the Tang Kingdom. What do you think will happen to your child? If you have the same personality as you, the second God, the Han and Tang Dynasties are about to fight. The world is in chaos and blood is flowing like rivers."

ps: Xiao He died in the second year of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty. Because Liu Chang was too noisy, the old man couldn't rest assured. He lived an extra four years. This can't be called a knife.

In addition, I saw a lot of people talking about the problem of the heroine. It is reasonable, the female character with the most descriptions and the largest plot length is Empress Lu. As for Fan Qing, uh, Liu Chang is 11 years old, and Fan Qing is younger than him. She There is no difference between Xia Houzao and Chen Mai, they are all Liu Chang's childhood playmates. Could it be that only Lao Lang had such a little girlfriend who fought with him every day when he was a child?
As for the future emotional drama, let's talk about it in the future.
