Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 549 The world is in my heart
As the major mansion newspapers began to publish news about the emperor's parade, the local people gradually knew that the emperor was fine. This mansion newspaper was indeed a sharp weapon, conveying the news of the emperor's safety to all places as quickly as possible.

"Old thief! The widow has always respected you as the founding minister of the country. I never thought that now you want to rebel!!"

"Old dog! I can't tolerate you!"

"Today, all you have to do is die!"

Liu Xiang rode his second father's white horse of the same style, and yelled outside a county town on the border of Longxi and Hexi.

During these days, Wei Wei lived in unspeakable misery. The emperor had an accident in his territory, so there is no need to say more about the hostility towards him from the temple. Whenever anything happened to the emperor, he, the prefect, would be the first To be held accountable, the earthquake caused serious damage to the entire Longxi County.

How big is the impact of this burrow?Some water currents have changed course due to this earthquake, and many roads that originally connected Bashu and Longxi have been completely closed at this moment. They were used as passages for transporting grain in the Qin Dynasty, and from now on they are developing in the direction of difficult roads to Shu. .

There are so many people affected by the disaster, and the destroyed cities, roads, etc. are even more incalculable.

If it's just these problems, it's fine, but the most troublesome thing for Wei Yun is of course the Shuzi outside the city, Hexi King Liu Xiang. That said, status is irreplaceable.

After the emperor's accident, the Longxi people quickly brought the news to the Hexi Kingdom. The King of Hexi was the first to know about the situation. He was eager to go to Chang'an, but was dissuaded by the Prime Minister Liu Jing.

Liu Jing believed that the king of Wai could not leave the fief without authorization. On the one hand, he was going to help appease the victims in Longxi, and on the other hand, he was making preparations for the king of Hexi to go to Chang'an.

But the bad thing is that the temple didn't deliver any news from the emperor.

Liu Xiang became anxious immediately.

From his point of view, Zhong's father was seriously ill, and the temple actually kept silent. What does this mean? ?

And Liu Jing also played immediately. Liu Jing believes that there are too many people in the world who want to murder His Majesty. As the emperor's pro-Jewish son, please ask the king to lead troops to the border of Longxi to put pressure on the temple so that those who are interested will not dare to attack the emperor. .

Zhou Bo also thought it was true, so the three of them started to fight. Liu Jing started to mobilize the domestic ministers to convey the news of the emperor's injury to the princes and kings.

The people in the world who care most about the emperor should be the princes and kings. Today's princes and kings are as prosperous as Liu Chang. Except for Liu Chang, no one can use them as much as they do now, and completely trust them.

Zhou Bo, the leader of the army, got in touch with Qin Tong, who was in charge of guarding the border, and the troops from all over the country were ready to move, giving the temple an illusion that they were about to send troops.

Liu Xiang led the cavalry to Longxi and yelled at the sheriff.

"You old dog! Thanks to my Zhongfu trusting you so much, you dare to make trouble! Quickly make way for me to go to Chang'an!! You bastard!"

Just as Liu Xiang was yelling, the gate of the county seat was slowly opened.

Liu Xiang pursed his lips, hurriedly stopped cursing, and looked at the lieutenant at the side in a panic, "Why did they really open the city gate? What should I do?"

The lieutenant general also looked at a loss, "Didn't the king ask them to make way?"

"It was Zhou Taiwei who asked me to say that. Zhou Taiwei said, let me scold you as hard as possible. It is best to make the surname Wei dare not leave here, so angry that his teeth are itchy, so that he and the Prime Minister have enough time." But he didn’t say what to do if the city gate opened on the opposite side.”

Just as Liu Xiang was eagerly telling the situation, knights came out of the city gate. The leader was wearing heavy armor. He was the county guard Wei Wei. Seeing that he also ran out, Liu Xiang never dared to scold him again. His eyes were full of panic, Zhou Bo didn't tell him that this man could leave the city
I scolded him so harshly just now, he...shouldn't have come to avenge me, right?

Liu Xiang's steed still took a few steps back, and the surrounding knights also faintly surrounded Liu Xiang, making preparations to prevent the opponent from jumping over the wall in a hurry.

With a dark face, Wei Wei quickly rode to Liu Xiang's side. Liu Xiang scolded him for twenty days. To assassinate the king, Liu Xiang laughed awkwardly.

"Wei Jun, why did you come out?"

"Didn't Your Majesty clamor for me to come out these days? He also said that he would cut off my head. I came out today. I wonder how you plan to cut off my head?"

"Hahaha, Wei Gong was joking, how could the widow cut you off? I, I just care too much about Zhongfu, yes, Zhongfu!! Don't forget, Zhongfu had an accident with you, and his life and death are still unknown. !!"

Liu Xiang seemed to have regained his courage, and his tone became a little more serious.

What Wei Yun was waiting for was his words. Wei Yun took out something from his arms and threw it directly on Liu Xiang's face. Liu Xiang was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse. Something, it was a newspaper, Liu Xiang glanced at it, and saw the news that the emperor was going to inspect the Weishui Wharf.

Liu Xiang's face changed drastically, "Father Zhong is alright?"

"Why, what King Hexi means is that he really doesn't want to see His Majesty safe?"

Liu Xiang shook his head hastily, "No, no, no, I don't mean that."

He looked at Wei Yun who had a very bad face in front of him, and suddenly smiled awkwardly, "Look, this is all a misunderstanding, I thought something happened to Zhong's father, because he was too worried, and he spoke rudely to you, you are the founder of the country General, why don't you make things difficult for a little king like me?"

It's really cool to scold the founding minister, but the best premise is not to scold face to face.
Liu Xiang grinned stupidly, exuding the aura of Emperor Gao all over his body, anyway, you just can't take revenge on me.

Wei Wei squinted his eyes, "Your Majesty has scolded me for so many days, I'm afraid it won't be easy if I want to take it all away today."

"Then tell me, what do you need me to do?"

"You insulted me in front of my soldiers and humiliated me. Please get off your horse and confess your sins to me in front of everyone on the city wall!"

Wei Wei said seriously.

Hearing this, Liu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. It was nothing more than a confession. When he was in Chang'an, he pleaded guilty every day. The confession letter he wrote to Father Zhong could make up a book. Nothing difficult.

I thought that the founding minister was as difficult to deal with as the Taiwei, and he couldn't be easily provoked. I didn't expect that there was still a soft persimmon. Liu Xiang smiled again. There is such a soft persimmon next door. Maybe he can serve the Hexi Kingdom in the future. Get more goodies.

He got off the horse, followed Wei Yun to the city wall step by step, and then apologized very sincerely to Wei Yun in front of everyone.

"Okay, your confession is very sincere, and I accept your apology!"

Wei Wei said seriously.

Liu Xiang was about to say something more, when Wei Yun said again: "However, Your Majesty, fifty paces outside the city is the boundary of Longxi County."

"Ah? What do you mean?"

"No other meaning, come here!! The king of Hexi led his troops across the border and broke into the territory of Longxi County!! Arrest it!!!"

Before Liu Xiang could react, the soldiers who looked like tigers and wolves had already rushed up, grabbed Liu Xiang, and pressed him to the ground. The Hexi army behind this scene was shocked and chaotic, while Wei You just looked at those cavalrymen and cursed angrily: "Go back and tell Zhou Bo what happened here!!"

Hexi soldiers didn't dare to approach, and after being reprimanded by the other party, some people actually started to leave, ready to tell Zhou Bo the news.

Liu Xiang was directly caught in the city and thrown into prison.

"You lied to me!!!"

Liu Xiang felt unspeakable grievances in his heart, and he almost cried. He treated him sincerely, but in the end he was cheated like this, but he really offended Wei Yun too hard this time, and the other party ignored him at all. , directly loaded him into a prison van and sent him to Chang'an.

As for Zhou Bo, he also came here shortly after Liu Xiang was caught. He came here because he got a piece of good news. The good news is that His Majesty is fine. When he told his king, he heard bad news.

The king was arrested and sent to Chang'an.
"This Zhuzi is addicted to cursing, he deserves to be caught!"

Liu Chang looked at the memorial sent by Longxi, his eyes were full of disdain.

"This Zhu Zi led thousands of cavalry, but he was taken down just like that. I actually thought about letting him sit in the northwest and defend the main road between the Central Plains and the West. Now it seems that I really thought too much. This Shu Zi will not succeed." Great weapon!!!”

Liu Chang was very angry. He was not angry that Liu Xiang contacted the princes and the army everywhere, trying to put pressure on the temple, nor was he angry that Liu Xiang publicly insulted the ministers of the temple. He was angry that this man was caught so easily and failed himself. high hopes.

Seeing his father yelling at him, Liu An stood up helplessly to excuse his brother.

"Father, he also offended many local ministers before. I don't think he was arrested carelessly, but on purpose, just to ease the relationship between the two parties, and also to..."

Liu An couldn't make it up anymore, Liu Chang waved his hand and interrupted his speech.

"Okay, I won't ask about these matters, you go and appease them yourself. And those people in the Tang Kingdom, you have to appease them too."

"Father, don't worry, I know what to do!"

Liu An is full of self-confidence. Now Liu Chang intends to strengthen his power and allow him to place his power in various key departments of the temple. Since Liu An has received such great support from his father, he naturally wants to make a move. It's a career.

"By the way, father, there is one more thing."

In the past few days, Liu An has been checking for gaps and making up for leaks by Liu Chang's side, and has done Lu Lu's work. This can be regarded as gradually beginning to share the pressure of government affairs for Liu Chang.

Liu An picked up a memorial seriously, and said, "Father, this is a letter from the ministers. They are all extremely dissatisfied with the fact that King Zhao went out without permission. They asked to cut King Zhao's food, anyway, they want to punish him. I don't want my father to just fool around like this."

"Which side are you from?!"

Liu Chang glared at Liu An, then stroked his chin, "Let's cut it, what else can Zhao Guo cut, and he will become a Marquis of Che, cut him a county of Qinghe County, and this county will not give it to him." Any vassal state, the temple is managed by itself, and it happens to be among the states, which can effectively convey the order of the temple and curb the disputes among the states."

Liu An stood beside Liu Chang earnestly, and he was actually learning. My father's coping ability is very amazing. No matter what happens to me, my father can always respond quickly. This ability seems to be He was born with envy.

While assisting my father in handling affairs, Liu An was also learning my father's abilities.

Liu An took a thick memorial and walked out of the palace. Now he is officially intervening in important affairs, so he must be careful. When Liu An walked out of the palace, there were some people who were ready, got into the carriage, and hurried towards his mansion .

"Your Highness, where are we going?"

"Let's find Zongzheng first"

While Liu An was talking, the exclamations of the common people came from a distance, and I saw a chariot galloping towards the imperial palace, followed by many soldiers, and the common people along the road flocked Dodge, dare not stop, even the soldiers of the Northern and Southern Army dare not stop.

"Make way, let's not run into each other, could it be that Captain Xiahou is here?"

Liu An said in surprise, but when the chariot flew by, he saw clearly, oh, it turned out that it was not Taiwei Xiahou, but Zhou Shengzhi, General Louchuan.

"His Majesty!!!"

Zhou Shengzhi rushed to the palace, and hurried to Houde Hall. As soon as he entered Houde Hall, without saying anything, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Liu Chang.

Speaking of which, Liu Chang hadn't seen him for a long time, and he never thought that Zhou Shengzhi would come so quickly. At this moment, Zhou Shengzhi knelt in front of Liu Chang, motionless, with his head buried.

Liu Chang knew why he was like this.

King Wu was able to appear directly near Chang'an, relying on the capabilities of the Louchuan armies in various places, and who can mobilize the Louchuan armies in various places, of course, is Zhou Shengzhi. Zhou Shengzhi was in the southwest before. To Chang'an, it must be because of Zhou Shengzhi's help.

If something really happened to him, Zhou Shengzhi, together with the virtuous king, would be right to help the world.

But the emperor was fine, that mighty general of Han Louchuan openly colluded with the princes and kings, and even helped to transport troops to Chang'an, which is a bit unclear.

What's more, the power of the Zhou family is already great, and there are three generals in the family. Anyone who sees it feels inappropriate.

Lu Lu, who still didn't understand the situation, looked at this scene in surprise, and asked curiously: "What are you doing, why did you just kneel down when you saw His Majesty, could it be that you took the opportunity to rebel when His Majesty was seriously ill? "

Hearing these words, Zhou Shengzhi raised his head, looked at Lu Lu hesitantly, and then looked at Liu Chang seriously.

"Your Majesty, I made a big mistake, please punish me!"

"You also know that you have made a big mistake. Well, your troop carrier is getting more and more powerful. Now you are transporting troops from the state of Wu. Will you have to transport troops from your body in the future?"

Zhou Shengzhi lowered his head, his eyes full of helplessness.

Lu Lu was even more surprised. He looked at Liu Chang and Zhou Shengzhi blankly, "Your Majesty, I can't understand what happened."

"I went to Weishui Wharf earlier, do you remember?"

"At that time, I just wondered why the Lou Chuan Army would write this news on purpose? I thought about it, and it was clearly to confirm whether I was still there. There must be foreign soldiers in Weishui. I learned this After the incident, head to the pier calmly."

In Liu Chang's mouth, the story is different. The wise and powerful elder will not be deceived. He saw through the conspiracy at a glance, and then went there in person, scolded everyone involved in this matter, told them to leave quickly, and blocked the news at the same time. Let outsiders know that this happened.

In Liu Chang's version, Wu Wang is just a poor guy who is worried about his younger brother and is at a loss. The elder is the real core figure who gives orders and stabilizes the situation.

After learning about this, Lu Lu's face immediately changed. Without saying a word, he kicked Zhou Shengzhi directly, and kicked him directly in the chest. Zhou Shengzhi staggered and nearly fell down.

"Are you crazy?!"

"Are you helping King Wai to transport troops?? Transporting troops to Chang'an?! You don't want to live anymore, do you?!"

"You think your family is too prominent, don't you?"

Lu Lu's reaction was even more irritable than Liu Chang's. His hand was swaying in front of Zhou Shengzhi, as if he was about to hit him in the face in the next moment. Zhou Shengzhi was wrong, but he still argued: "I am mainly worried about Your Majesty. He won't obey the king, if he has other ideas, I can easily control the situation."

"Fart! How can you control the situation, Your Majesty, drag this guy out and behead him now!"

Lu Lu said angrily.

Zhou Shengzhi still lowered his head.

"Come here!"

Liu Chang beckoned, Zhou Shengzhi walked in front of Liu Chang little by little, Liu Chang grabbed his shoulder, pulled him, and quickly put his arms around his neck, with his arms around his neck, Zhou Shengzhi's face turned red immediately, He was clamped tightly by Liu Chang, unable to move.

"I'm going to cut you a thousand households."

"Do you have any comments??"

"No no."

Liu Chang's other hand clenched into a fist and knocked on Zhou Shengzhi's head a few times, "I have high hopes for you, if you dare to be so reckless again, I will not spare you!!"

"I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty's high expectations!! I must do my best to explore and prove for Your Majesty whether it is possible to go to Shendu by water."

Just when Zhou Shengzhi expressed his loyalty, Liu Chang seemed to think of something suddenly, let go of Zhou Shengzhi, and looked straight into his eyes.

"What else can you prove? It can be reached. Now it is in Yue. Nanyue, right? Nanyue goes all the way down, and then turns from the island to India. Shendu, yes, come on, do you have a pen?" ?? Lu!! Hurry up, prepare pens and ink for me, and ask for paper, bigger ones!!"

Liu Chang urged, Lu Lu acted hastily, Zhou Shengzhi looked at Liu Chang blankly, and soon Liu Chang picked up the brush and began to sketch.

"Look, this is the range of Dahan. Starting from here, this is Wa Island. Well, starting from Minyue, you can reach an island. Yizhou Island is where you are currently. Down is There is a big island, and the human resources here are abundant.”

"Go all the way here from here. Well, here is Africa."

Liu Chang began to draw excitedly, drawing more and more.

Zhou Shengzhi and Lu Lu just looked at him in astonishment.

ps: I overestimated my ability to take care of children, and I underestimated the difficulty of taking care of children. It is unrealistic to take care of children while coding. I have not closed my eyes for five days, and my whole person has become very dull. Very numb, I barely managed to write a chapter in the past few days, which is not feasible.
