Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 539 No one can replace you

"Wait a minute!!"

Just when the soldiers rushed forward, someone outside the door spoke to dissuade him, Han Xin suddenly turned around, and it was Liu An who came.

When the incident happened, Liu An was not in Chang'an. He went to Luoyang to handle errands because of the Shihuo Mansion. After the earthquake in Wudu, Cao Shu sent someone to let him return quickly. Zhang Meng, Wang Tianqi, Shen Tujia and others were in charge, and Zhang Shizhi also acted. There was no major disturbance in Chang'an. The queen tried to suppress the news, except for these ministers and the emperor's friends. They, others are mostly unaware.

"Indiscriminate killing due to natural disasters is not my father's wish."

Liu An's words stopped Han Xin from saying anything more. Liu An paid a calm visit to several ministers. Father who was motionless on the bed, Liu An only felt that something pushed him hard, and there was a roar in his mind, even before he came in, he told himself time and time again that as the prince, at this time, he must be enough He is so calm that he can't make Grandma worry, but he is still in a mess.

The voices outside became a little fuzzy, and his calves couldn't help trembling. At some point, Feng Tang and Mao Chang appeared beside him, one left and one right, Feng Tang gently pushed him, and Liu An was relieved. Come to his senses, he glanced at Father again, then looked at the Imperial Physician Xia Wuqi beside him, and asked, "Emperor Physician Order, how is the situation?"

Xia Wuqi was full of fear, "Your Highness! Your Majesty's head has been severely injured. Although his pulse is strong, he has not woken up for a long time and is unconscious."

Xia Wuqiu didn't dare to say it clearly, but his meaning was very clear, the situation was very dangerous.

Hearing this sentence, Zhang Buyi, who was still in a daze, suddenly became furious, and pulled out his sword suddenly, "What do you imperial doctors do?! You are pampered on weekdays?! If something happens to your Majesty, I will punish your five clans! !!"

Luan Bu shot quickly, snatching the long sword from Zhang Buyi's hand in just a split second. Zhang Buyi didn't even react. Luan Bu put away the sword and said to the soldiers beside him: Please send Zhang Zuoxiang back to the mansion!"

"I'm not going back!! You traitors!! You are killing me!!!"

Zhang Buyi roared with all his strength, Zhang Cang waved his hand, the soldiers dragged Zhang Buyi, and took him out of Houde Hall with difficulty.

Until he was taken far away, his heart-piercing cries could be heard.

The atmosphere in the Houde Hall suddenly became very serious, and no one spoke. Cao Shu looked at this scene and suppressed the grief in her heart, "Mr. Zhang, please stabilize the officials first. Many government affairs in the temple can be temporarily suspended. Come down, recall the ministers from all over the country, and make all preparations."

Zhang Cang raised his head, and his reaction became a little sluggish. Zhang Xiang, who pays attention to health preservation, has not had a rest for three days. He does not take much time to deal with government affairs. Now, facing the arrangements after the earthquake, he needs his subordinates When he came to help, he seemed to lose his judgment in an instant, and he was no longer as shrewd as before. It was only at this time that everyone could see clearly that Zhang Xiang was also very old.

He nodded dully, but in his current state, it might not be so easy to appease the officials.

Liu An saw this, and looked at Ji Bu who was relatively calm among the officials, "Ji Yushi, please help Zhang Xiang."

"only."

Ji Bu answered bluntly. Ji Bu was as calm as ever. He was probably the calmest among all the family members. His calmness also infected Liu An. Please sit in the temple and make all preparations."

If Ji Bu is the backbone of Sheren, then Han Xin is the backbone of the entire temple. As the most capable general of the Han Dynasty, as long as Han Xin is added to the northern and southern armies, the temple will be stable. No matter what happens, the temple will be stable.

Han Xin didn't even reply, he just looked straight at Liu Chang.

Looking at this disciple who carried all his ambitions and expectations, and looked at this disciple who had long been regarded as his son, Han Xin's face was very indifferent, and his hands were trembling slightly from an angle that no one could see.

Seeing that Han Xin ignored him, Liu An spoke again, and Feng Tang and others frowned.

When Liu An spoke for the second time, Han Xin finally nodded and made a response, then turned around and left here without even saying goodbye, and the atmosphere suddenly became more tense.

"Also, this matter must not let the eldest mother know that we must fully guard against it. The eldest mother is old, and she must not know about this matter."

Liu An gave the order to die. He still had a lot of things to arrange, but his mind was extremely chaotic, and he couldn't say anything. He pursed his lips, and finally just let the officials leave, so as not to disturb Father's rest.

Liu Chang was lying on the bed with a calm expression, while Liu An and Cao Shu sat beside him.

Looking at my father's face, for some reason, Liu An's eyes quickly turned red, "Mum, don't worry, my father is so strong, how can he be hurt with a small injury."

Liu An comforted Cao Shu, but she couldn't help but shed tears, and it was hard to say who he was comforting. Cao Shu cried secretly many times during these days, but she didn't lose her tears in front of others. A tear, even when she saw Liu Chang who was unconscious, she didn't cry, she looked very strong.

"Ann, don't cry when your father is recuperating, you have to stand up to the temple."

"Your father's illness caused the entire temple to be in chaos, and the two prime ministers were at a loss. The Taiwei has always been difficult to get along with. Now that he is in a bad mood, he is afraid of some conflict."

Liu An also frowned. Han Xin is the backbone of the temple, but at the same time, if he wants to do something, no one can stop him. Liu An's family members are also very worried about this issue. But this young prince, he treats Liu Chang as his son, and he doesn't necessarily treat Liu An as his grandson. He is not that close to Liu An, and even ignores Liu An's overtures. .

"In the imperial palace, there is Zhang Meng. This person is very loyal and serious in his work. There is no serious problem. In the inner city, there is Wang Tianqi. Wang Tianqi is a person."

Cao Shu opened her mouth, but found that she didn't dare to speak too much. These mighty generals in the court are loyal to Liu Chang, but they may not be loyal to the temple. Listening to Liu Chang's words may not necessarily listen to her and Liu An's words.

The mother and son were silent for a long time, but Liu An just felt an unprecedented pressure.

All the affairs of the temple fell on him, and the figure who usually shielded him from the wind and rain fell down. At this moment, Liu An realized that it was so difficult to stand in this position, and he even felt a little nervous. At a loss, all the books he read on weekdays, all the arrogance were gone, he realized that he was nothing, he didn't know how to appease the officials, and he didn't know how to deal with possible difficulties.

The pressure made it difficult for Liu An to breathe, and he held Aunt's hand in fear.

Cao Shu said solemnly: "Don't be afraid, your father is just recuperating, there will be no major changes in the temple, the officials dare not have dissent, the temple is still stable, and the same is true for the princes, they and your father Besides, you don’t have that strength, so you don’t have to be afraid, just do your part and wait for your father to heal.”

Liu An raised his head, his face was full of tears, he really wanted to ask, what if Father can't wake up?

But he couldn't say anything, Cao Shu comforted her son, and stood up slowly, "You look at your father first, I have to deal with the matter in the harem."

"only."

Liu An continued to stay here, and Feng Tang walked in quickly, "Your Highness, Duke Luan is outside the door, and he doesn't want to leave."

"Let him in."

Luan Bu came in and bowed to the prince lightly. Liu An wiped away his tears and asked, "What orders does Mr. Luan have?"

"Your Highness. I just... want to see Your Majesty."

"Please come here."

Luan Bu sat beside Liu Chang, lowered his head, and looked at the emperor seriously. After a long silence, he whispered to Liu Chang:
"Your Majesty, there is me in the temple, so I can recuperate with peace of mind, don't worry."

The harem was already in chaos, and several of Cao Shu's children were crying bitterly.

Even Liu Ci seemed to feel something, and was crying loudly. Fan Qing, Liu Bo, Liu Ci, Liu Liang, except Liu Ye who was taken away by the maids, all cried loudly. At first, Yong'e still persuaded Looking at them, but in the end, she also started to cry together. Cao Shu walked in and cursed angrily: "What are you crying for? Are you cursing Your Majesty?! Your Majesty... Your Majesty is recuperating! Nothing happened! If you want to cry, wait for me to die before you cry!!"

Mother Cao's words were still very intimidating. When she said this, Fan Qing covered her mouth. Although the tears were still falling, she stopped making a sound. Yong'e also wiped her tears and began to coax the children.

"Don't cry, your father is fine, he is just sick, and the imperial doctor is treating him."

Cao Shu put on a gentle expression again, and said to the young masters.

Liu Bo stopped crying, "Mom, I'm afraid."

"Don't be afraid, are you hungry?"

Both Liu Bo and Liu Liang were calmed down, but Liu Ci was the only one who was still crying, "I want Father!!!"

Cao Shu was in a hurry for a while, "Don't let anyone go to Changle Palace, and the children don't go, lest Grandma find out."

In Houde Hall, people come and go.

As soon as Luan Bu left, the group of sages rushed in. The soldiers couldn't stop them at all. Liu An wanted to reprimand him, but seeing their haggard and sad faces, he was speechless again. , Lu Lu, Zhou Yafu, Zhou Jian, Xuan Moru, Lu Zhong, and Fanshi people all came, except for Lu Lu who was in tears, the others did not cry, they just surrounded the emperor.

"Your Majesty, don't scare us like this anymore, we know you're fine"

The voice of the people in Fan City was extremely hoarse.

"Your Majesty, we still have a lot of wine that we haven't drunk, and so much meat that we haven't eaten"

"Your Majesty, Xia Houzao and the others also know about it. They are all coming to see you. We are all here. It's time for you to wake up."

Liu An was shocked, "I have already ordered that this matter is not to be leaked to the outside world, how can Zhongfu tell others?!"

Zhou Yafu said calmly: "It is I who informed their ministers and please Your Highness to inform the princes and kings everywhere."

Liu An almost jumped up anxiously, "Father Zhong, why is this?"

"In the temple, we brothers are the most trustworthy. If something happens, we can protect you with our lives. As for telling the princes and kings, it is because today's temple lacks external forces, and internal and external balance is good. The princes and kings can also play a certain role."

Liu An's face was pale, he understood that he couldn't command Father's arrogant soldiers.

Liu An was thinking of controlling the influence of the situation in Chang'an, but Zhou Yafu and the others had to be prepared as much as possible to prevent anyone from doing anything wrong to His Majesty. If Liu An was not wrong, he might be the object of suspicion in the eyes of the sages. , because my father is gone, I can inherit the emperor's throne. These people don't believe in anyone except my father, and the only person they want to protect is my father.

Liu An never imagined that the situation in the entire temple would be so bad that his father was injured once.

The seemingly powerful and prosperous Han Empire has become full of crises in the blink of an eye.

The sages were unwilling to leave, but in the end, Lu Lu stayed. He stood beside the emperor, motionless, holding a sword in his arms, and looked at everyone around him vigilantly. He would never allow anyone to Hurt Your Majesty.

"The princes and kings are going to rebel!! You should fabricate a news of sacrifice and invite the princes and kings to Chang'an for detention!!"

Chao Cuo said loudly that something happened to the emperor, and he was extremely anxious. All his ambitions were realized because of the emperor, and now that His Majesty is unconscious, and he doesn't know if he will wake up. Chao Cuo is undoubtedly the most collapsed. Yes, it's just that he thinks more than this, his primary target is the princes and kings, Chao Cuo believes that if something really happens to His Majesty, these princes and kings will completely become a big problem for the temple.

Your Majesty is not worried about these princes and kings, but this does not mean that the crown prince also need not worry.

These people were sheep in the time of His Majesty, but might be tigers in the time of the prince.

"Do you want to destroy the big man?"

Shen Tujia was the first to object, "You are forcing the princes to attack the temple!! You want to start a war!!"

"Old man, which princes and kings did you accept as a bribe?!"

"I'll kill you first!!"

The court meeting was extremely chaotic, the person sitting in the high position in the temple was not there, and no one could stop the situation. Zhang Cang opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know how to speak. It wasn't just Chao Cuo and Shen Tujia who were arguing, the rest The ministers also have their own ideas, such as Wang Tianqi. At this moment, he firmly believes that the Queen Mother should be informed of the matter as soon as possible. The Queen Mother is the only person in the temple who can sit in charge.

Although the queen and prince are also very powerful, they still need the queen mother.

But Lu Jia objected. At the queen mother's age, if she let him know about His Majesty, whether she could bear it was a question. How about stabilizing the world?

Zhang Shizhi stared at these people seriously, as if if they said something wrong, they would lead others to kill them. In the chaos, it was Ji Bu who stood up.

"No quarrels are allowed. The affairs of the temple are temporarily in charge of Zhang Xiang. With His Highness and Queen sitting in charge, don't worry, just wait for His Majesty to recover at ease."

"What we have to do now is to continue our work as before, without having to think about it. The Taiwei is in Chang'an, and we don't have to worry about the affairs of the princes!"

Chao Cuo wanted to refute, but Ji Bu's eyes at the moment were a bit scary. As Chao Cuo, who was familiar with Ji Bu's personality, knew very well in his heart that he was ready to kill at this moment. And the old love, he had no choice but to shut up.

"Everyone just wait with peace of mind. If something happens, you can first inform Zhang Xiang."

Zhang Cang also looked at the group of officials, and said slowly: "Now that His Majesty is recovering from illness, all the lords must work together and never do anything that disappoints His Majesty, otherwise, I will never forgive you."

The officials left separately, but Zhang Cang and Ji Bu stayed behind. Zhang Cang sighed, "No, if Your Majesty doesn't wake up, something big will happen among the officials. The officials don't trust the Taiwei and hate the princes and kings." , if the Taiwei is offended by them, there will be a big problem. Although the queen is solemn and generous, she is not as intimidating as the queen mother. The prince is young, and this is the first time he has encountered such a thing."

The two were talking when a soldier rushed in from outside the door.

"Zhang Xiang, it's not good!"

"Zhang Zuoxiang vomited blood and passed out!"

Zhang Cang slapped his leg violently, and shouted: "This guy is not worrying!!!"

Inside the Taiwei's Mansion, Han Xin had a serious face, while Xia Houying stood aside respectfully.

Han Xin was reading a book, or rather, he was looking at the book, but his mind was not on the book, and his expression was a little dull. He just looked at the Art of War for a long time, and his eyes were always fixed in the same place.

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, Your Majesty will be fine."

Xia Houying said with some distress, the old general stood beside Han Xin in armor and sharpened, his face full of sorrow.

Xia Houying also watched Liu Chang grow up. Seeing Liu Chang's appearance at this moment, he felt even more painful, but he knew that the Taiwei was only more painful than him, but the Taiwei would never put his own The emotions expressed were still so indifferent, and the clues could only be seen from his white and trembling fingers.

Han Xin put down the book in his hand and looked at Xia Houying.

"Who sent you?"

"Your Majesty? I don't understand what you mean."

"You were resting at home, but you came here suddenly just now, and you said you wanted to protect me and prevent bad people from harming me. If something happens to Your Majesty, your spear will pierce me first, right? Prince? Empress? Zhang Cang? Who asked you to come?"

Han Xin stared straight at Xia Houying.

Xia Houying saluted Han Xin very respectfully, "Your Majesty, the great man, was created by fighting with Emperor Gao. If there is an outsider who wants to destroy it, I must kill him. No matter who he is, if there are foreign enemies , I am willing to be the king's vanguard!"

"Therefore, please allow me, Your Majesty, to protect me personally, lest any thieves plot against me."

ps: It’s a very risky move, I hope it can bring you better senses, I’m not willing to use water, I’m willing to try some new writing methods, and you don’t have to worry that the follow-up text will become a traditional historical text, widow You have your own tricks, the familiar taste will not change, don't think that King Li is not King Li after he sees it clearly.
