Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 250 Rescue Qi Wang Liu Fei
A group of horses set off from the capital of Qi State and headed towards Chang'an.

Liu Fat was sitting on the carriage, swaying, which made him even more uncomfortable. He coughed violently. Even though he was wrapped in thick clothes, he could still feel it when he was driving under the strong wind. That biting chill.

After several pleas from his valet, the messenger kindly allowed them to stop and rest.

Sitting in front of the bonfire, Liu Fatty sat very close, almost igniting himself. However, the biting chill was not relieved much. Liu Fatty stretched out his hand and looked at the burning bonfire in front of him, his eyes dull. As if to see something in the flames.

Liu Fei's life was extremely unfortunate.

He is the eldest son of Emperor Gao, but he is an unnamed son. His grandmother, who is not even a concubine, gave birth to him without marrying Emperor Gao. Emperor Gao probably also thinks it is a matter of getting married. It was so troublesome that it was delayed until Liu Fei grew up, and he never made up for a wedding for Mrs. Cao.

When Empress Lu, who was married to Emperor Gao, came in and found a half-year-old child, her anger was understandable.Empress Lv never took action against Madam Cao. Perhaps, she felt that she would lose face by fighting with a "foreign woman" who was out all day. But even so, Madam Cao didn't survive for long. After being released by Xiang Yu Not long after, he passed away.

With the birth of Liu Ying, Princess Lu Yuan and others, Liu Fei's situation became more and more embarrassing. Although Emperor Gao would kick Liu Ying off the carriage, behind Liu Ying there was Empress Lu and his uncle Liu Fei. has always been alone.

Growing up in such an environment, Liu Fei did not develop a cynical, cruel and cold-blooded character. As the eldest brother of his brothers, when Emperor Gao and Empress Lu couldn't put too much attention on the children, Liu Fei did Fei takes his younger brothers by his side, serving as both father and mother.

Almost all of his younger brothers were brought up by him.

Emperor Gao named him the King of Qi and asked Cao Can to assist him, but the good times did not last long, and his father left too early. When Empress Lu came to power, Liu Fei seemed to have returned to his childhood. But this time, there was no father to protect him.

Previously in Chang'an, if Liu Ying hadn't stopped him, he would have been poisoned.

Liu Fei has no ambition, nor does he have much pursuit.

Therefore, when he looked back on his life in the bonfire, he was surprised to find that he never seemed to have a story worth recalling, just like his origin, unknown and unattractive, Liu Fei laughed, Maybe he can be remembered for two things in history, namely, the son of Emperor Gao, and the thing about being nearly poisoned.

Compared with the younger brothers who have great ambitions and display their talents to the fullest, my eldest brother is really a failure.

"Your Majesty, it's time to hurry!"

The messenger reminded loudly.

Ever since he almost drank alcohol in Chang'an, Liu Fei had been extremely frightened. He always had nightmares at night. Facing a messenger, he didn't dare to refute, but slowly got up with the support of his valet, but the valet couldn't bear it any longer. "Please slow down the angel. You are also gifted by Emperor Gao, how can you treat Emperor Gao's son like this?"

The messenger pursed his lips, hesitated, turned around, and said, "Let's rest for a while."

Liu Fei sat for a long time, but the wind was getting stronger and stronger.

He breathed hard, watching the bonfire keep swaying in the wind.

Suddenly there was the sound of hooves in the distance.

The ground trembled slightly, mixed with a few noises, the messenger stood up abruptly and pulled out the long sword around his waist.

"Where did the thieves come from? Could it be from Qi?"

The messenger didn't care, and immediately formed a formation. There was even a smile on his face. If he could force Qi people to do it, it would be a great credit.

The figure in the distance gradually approached, and the messenger asked loudly, "Who is coming?!"

Under the night, a cavalry gradually emerged, the horse shook its head, kept approaching, the tall knights were fully armed, more and more knights appeared, the messenger was not afraid, just when he was about to question again. , he saw the banner that the knight showed.

"Don."

At that moment, the messenger's face changed greatly, and the hand holding the sword trembled.

He hurriedly put away the sword and asked with a smile, "But the king is here in person??"

No one answered. The knights kept appearing and surrounded them from all directions. The knights just stared at them coldly and did not answer. In the dark, the torches in the distance could be vaguely seen, and the number of cavalry was still there. continuously increasing.

At this moment, the Han envoy, with sweat constantly rolling down his forehead, the Tang people's sense of oppression was too strong, he didn't say anything, and the chilling atmosphere frightened these soldiers to dare not confront each other. Liu Fei looked at it in surprise. These people, "Long?"

At this time, finally, a man who looked like a general dismounted, brought a few warriors, and walked quickly to King Qi's side.

"I am Dong Chi, the governor of Jibei County, who is the King of Qi?!"

"Shou Dong? Why are you here?"

The messenger stepped forward with a smile. This attitude was completely different from that of King Qi just now. Dong Chi ignored him at all. With the support of his valet, Liu Fei looked at the general and said, "The widow is King Qi, the governor of the county. Any advice?"

Dong Chi frowned, "I heard that you are quite disrespectful to my king!"

"Repeatedly insulted him as a Shuzi!!"

"Come here, take King Qi away and let him apologize to the king in person!!"

Dong Chi ordered, and immediately some soldiers like tigers and wolves stepped forward, supported King Qi and got into the car. The messenger was dumbfounded and hurriedly blocked in front of Dong Chi. Seeing that Liu Chang was not coming, the messenger's courage also recovered a lot. , he shouted loudly: "I am hereby ordered by the Son of Heaven to welcome King Qi's return to the dynasty! Who dares to stop it?!"

"I am following the king's order to bring King Qi back to Jibei, how dare you stop me?!"

Dong Chi's attitude was even more arrogant.

The messenger shouted angrily: "Wang Ling and the emperor's edict, which is more important? You don't obey the emperor's edict, and you openly threaten to hold the princes and kings hostage. Are you trying to rebel?!"

Dong Chi suddenly grinned. He took down the sword from his waist and looked at the aggressive envoy blocking his face. A sword hilt smashed into the opponent's abdomen, and the envoy cried out in pain. Unable to speak, Dong Chi kicked his chest again, and the messenger fell directly to the ground.

Seeing this scene, the armored soldiers around were stunned.

The local county governor beat the emperor's envoy? !

Has King Tang finally turned against it? !

Dong Chi looked at the messenger disdainfully, "When Nai Gong followed Emperor Gao to fight for Xiang Ji, you were still eating arrows! How dare you shout the emperor's order in front of Nai Gong?!"

He raised his head, looked at the soldiers in front of him, and scolded: "And you birds, if you dare to stop them, Nai Gong will cut off your heads and cook them!"

The armored soldiers were so frightened that their faces changed greatly, and they dropped their weapons and did not dare to go forward.

Dong Chi raised his head, turned around proudly and left, and the lieutenant on the side asked worriedly, "General, have we done some wives?"

Dong Chi ignored it, he took a deep breath and shouted, "Back then, we all dared to rush up to Xiangji, but now we are all timid and timid when we do anything, even a valet who came to pass on a message dares to ride on it. Let's take care of him, I am acting on the orders of the king, if we want to go to war, then follow the king to fight, and I was able to follow Emperor Gao to pacify the world, why can't I do it today?!"

"I haven't been so happy for a long time. Even if I lose the battle, it's only a death, why should I be afraid?!"

At this moment, King Qi had not been able to get out of his astonishment. He was even more frightened when he heard Dong Chi's remarks.

"What is this going to do? Is he going to rebel?!"

King Qi shouted.

Dong Chi smiled and glanced at Liu Fei, "King Qi can rest assured and follow us in Jibei County. The king has sent a doctor. I heard that Wei Luan will be here soon. For other things, he I will arrange it myself. Originally, he came to take you away, but the journey is long, and I was afraid that you would be taken away, so I let the minister do it."

"Hey, the princes and kings made people beat the angels. This is a serious crime. This is a crime of treason. How can this be so... I'd better go back with them. I can't get involved."

Liu Fei spoke eagerly.

Dong Chi glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty, it's better to recover from your illness. If you die in the middle of the road and my Majesty is angry, what he can do is more serious than treason."

At this moment, Liu Chang was running towards Chang'an with his people.

Along with him were Feng Jing and Tai Pu.

Liu Chang looked a little serious at the moment. Although Liu Chang was very easy to get along with on weekdays, he always shrugged shoulders with the ministers, mad at Sima Xi.But when he gets serious, it's still quite scary. Liu Chang is tall and his eyes are even sharper. When staring at others, he always gives a great sense of oppression, making others dare not look at him. .

Everyone also began to rest. It was also in front of the bonfire, but Liu Chang did not feel like Liu Fei did. He took out the leg of lamb and roasted it in the bonfire. Tai servant sat beside him and suddenly said, "Go pick it up. The matter of King Qi should be done by Zhang Tingwei. Weiwei Luan is not as brave as Zhang Tingwei."

"You know what, if Zhang Wusu is allowed to go, he will most likely execute the envoy, hold the King of Qi hostage, and annex the State of Qi. Maybe he will take the soldiers of the State of Qi to make a surprise attack on Chang'an!"

Liu Chang was very casual to Tai servants, and scolded him when he opened his mouth, but this kind of scolding was not an insult, just a joke among friends.

Liu Chang said again: "Luan Bu has to do this. Don't look at Luan Bu's usual seriousness, but if he does, he is more ruthless than anyone else."

"Then what are we going to do in Chang'an this time?"

"You don't have to be a widow and have a worthy reputation. As long as you fight for reasons and make a statement, you will definitely be able to impress everyone in the temple!"

"It's more than just being impressed, the king's fist can be thrown into the air."

"Haha, you fellow, you are the king of Tang, and all the people in the Tang Kingdom are knowledgeable and reasonable, and convince people with reason, how can you rely on fists?"

Tai Pu grinned, "That's not it. When the Huns came to raid Yanmen in Yunzhong in batches, the local people even wanted to snatch the horses of the Huns. Dozens of Huns were convinced by Yili. People, who do not know where they are, only know that there are a few more horses in the countryside over there."

The two laughed, and Feng Jing, who was serious and unsmiling by nature, was incompatible with them.

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't have sent someone to capture King Qi!"

Liu Chang glanced at him and asked, "Is King Qi your relative?"

"This King Qi is the elder brother of the king!"

"Yes, he is my relative, not yours, what's your business?"

Feng Jing's face darkened, and he said loudly, "The king has no family affairs, and family affairs are both state affairs!"

"Come, come, come, eat more meat"

Liu Chang immediately blocked his mouth with meat, and then ordered: "You are the same as Ji Bu, he is the empress dowager, and you are the empress dowager's guest. I don't care how you want to report the empress dowager, but you are not allowed to complain. Do you know? As a minister, be loyal to your lord!"

In the Jiaofang Hall, the Queen Mother lit a candle and was reading the memorial in front of her.

Empress Lv looked in good spirits. It didn't look like she was seriously ill at all. It was completely different from that of Liu Fei. Cao Shu was sitting in front of her, coaxing the little guy in her arms to sleep, and the empress dowager reviewed it for a while. Then he stopped and rubbed his forehead.

"Ten essays, eight of which are all impeaching that Shuzi!"

"Say this Shuzi abuses people's power and overhauls roads and cities."

Cao Shu smiled and said, "Mum, the corvée in Tang is different from other places. They are given food. They don't need to bring their own, and they won't delay the work of farmers."

"The whole year is full of recuperation and recuperation, just like this, I can't settle down for a moment. It's almost the age of a crown, and I still don't stop!"

Empress Lu scolded a few words, then looked at Cao Shu and said earnestly, "You have to stand on my side and don't favor your beloved."

Cao Shu lowered her head and said hesitantly, "I never lied to him."

"I'm not asking you to lie to him, just don't tell him too much."

"Mom, I know."

The relationship between the two is very close. Cao Shu's personality is very suitable for Empress Lv's appetite. This person is smart, but he does not have too much ambition. After getting along for a long time, Empress Lu became more gentle towards her.

Empress Lu is such a character. As long as she sees the right eyes, she is very forgiving. For example, her son-in-law Zhang Ao, even if she has done something to offer beauty, she is willing to speak for him and save him.And what Empress Lu likes about Cao Shu the most is that Cao Shu doesn't hide anything, she just says anything, this is what makes her happiest.

And her eldest sister, who was full of worries, didn't want to tell her even a single word. She didn't consider herself an elder at all, so why would she consider her a daughter-in-law?

Cao Shu asked with some doubts: "But why does A-mu persecute the king like this?"

"Because only he can inherit the throne."

"Yingsheng is cowardly, weak and doesn't know how to restrain him, but he has more wives and concubines than his grandfather!"

"Look at how thin he has become. I originally wanted to arrange for someone to assist him, but seeing him like this, I don't know whether he should leave first or if I should leave first."

But Cao Shu didn't dare to say anything more. His Majesty was fine everywhere, but he was a little sick.There are more and more concubines, and more and more sons are born. Now, Cao Shu can hardly recognize his sons. Besides the concubine, there are also many beautiful servants who accompany him. He was favored by the Son of Heaven and served by his side all day long.

"His children are still young. They are not enough to coerce the ministers."

The queen mother said displeasedly. She also persuaded Liu Ying many times to let him restrain himself. Liu Ying agreed every time, but it was not easy to quit. Over time, the queen mother was too lazy to persuade him anymore. Now, The mother and son met, basically Empress Lu reprimanded Liu Ying, and Liu Ying left after receiving the reprimand.

The queen mother believed that Liu Ying's actions were expressing her dissatisfaction and counterattacking herself. With Liu Chang's departure, the relationship between mother and son became more and more indifferent.

The role Liu Chang played in Chang'an was unmatched by anyone.

Cao Shu lowered her head and said helplessly, "Mother, Your Majesty is still very filial to you."

"Hehe. Sometimes, I wonder if I'll shed a tear for him if he dies."

The queen mother said something, and soon stopped this dangerous topic, she said seriously: "If Ying and I are gone, then everyone is in danger. As long as Chang Neng succeeds, everything can be properly arranged. "

"The biggest trouble for the big man at present is that he doesn't want to be the emperor."

Now, the queen mother finally no longer hides her thoughts. She is completely disappointed with Liu Ying. Whether it is out of personal affection or rationality, Liu Chang is the most suitable one to succeed the throne. He can get everyone's favor. Approved, the princes, ministers, the north and south armies, will obey him.

Even if you are dissatisfied, you have to hold back.

Cao Shu didn't speak again, just lowered his head.

An slowly opened his eyes, yawned, looked at Empress Lu and his mother, and shouted, "Hungry!!!"

Empress Lu laughed, "Hungry? Come, I'll take you to eat meat, do you want to eat meat?"

"Uh, mum, don't let him eat too much. It's late, eat some fruit"

"No problem!"

Empress Lu smiled and hugged her grandson and left, but Cao Shu smiled bitterly. She had a good son, but she was raised as a pig by her mother.

When Liu Chang led people to Chang'an, Guan Ying and other ministers had already left the city to wait for him.

They also didn't expect that the prince who came to the court first was actually the King of Tang, and they all thought that he would come last.

At this moment, Guan Ying, standing in front of the ministers, looked helpless.

Since the last time he defeated the Xiongnu and returned to the temple, he has been very uneasy.Because, the Son of Heaven rewarded him as the main general, and gave him a food town and a cloth and sword, and the grace was extremely high.Anyone who sees him should praise him a few words and praise him for his exploits in defeating the Huns.

The problem is that Han Xin, who really commanded the war, didn't get any reward. He still taught in Taixue. This made Guan Ying feel like he took the credit of others. Every time Guan Ying heard these praises, he felt An inexplicable shame, always feeling that these people are deliberately making fun of themselves.

Guan Ying was in the limelight, but Han Xin continued to be hidden.

The emperor rewarded the army, and there were many people who rewarded him, but Han Xin was the only one. Han Xin seemed to be indifferent, so Guan Ying felt very uncomfortable.

Liu Chang got off his horse, walked proudly in front of the ministers, and looked at Guan Ying who came to greet him.

"Hey, isn't this the general Guan who broke the Xiongnu?"

"How can you come to greet the widow in person?"

"The widow sees General Guan!!"

Guan Ying's face darkened. When others praised him, he really couldn't tell whether it was sarcasm or sincere praise, but this time, he heard it, it was sarcasm! !
ps: I went out yesterday and met a driver who was not too young. I chatted a few words. I didn’t expect that he was still my genuine reader. This uncle is also very happy. , The first time I met a genuine reader, when we parted, the uncle also urged me to update it, and he told me to go back to write a book quickly.

Hahaha, I thought my readers were relatively young, and the average subscription is already [-]. Thank you for your support! !
