Father Han Gaozu

"Can't you eat less wine?"

Cao Shu frowned, and signaled the soldiers to help Liu Chang, who was drunk, in. Liu Chang was big, and the soldiers took a lot of effort to get him into the hall. Liu Chang lay on the couch, straight Hmph, Cao Shu shook her head helplessly and told the soldiers to leave. She changed Liu Chang's clothes and wiped her face with a towel. By the time Liu Chang fell asleep, Cao Shu was already out of breath.

Fan Qing quickly rushed in, "Big Sister!! "

Seeing the sleeping Liu Chang, Fan Qing was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and scolded unhappily: "This guy went to Wuding Tower again?"

"I heard that the son of the Taiwei is here, and it's a matter of business for him to host a banquet for them."

Fan Qing muttered, "What business does he have... It's just a dirty business of sneaking around."

Among Liu Chang's three wives, only Fan Qing was the most rude to him, because Fan Qing grew up with him since he was a child, so until now he only called him Chang, and never called him Your Majesty until now. Now, she still dares to scold the chief, and dare to pinch the chief. Of course, the chief has finally stopped fighting back now, but he often quarrels, and the fights are very serious. Fan Qing is not afraid of Liu Chang. She will complain to her aunt if she has any problems. However, my aunt is still very useful, always standing on her side to reprimand Liu Chang.

"Why are you here in such a hurry?"

"Oh, I almost forgot, I ran away."

"what?!"

Cao Shu was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Why did he run away? When did he run away? Did you send someone to catch him?"

"Eldest sister, don't worry, this Zhuzi broke into the gate of the palace, and was caught by the soldiers just after running for a while... His mother is beating him."

Cao Shu shook her head, her face became more distressed, it was really not easy for herself, she had to take care of so many children, and no one was obedient, "I see, I will visit later, you go back now, stop more Don't break the child!"

"okay!"

Fan Qing smiled and left here.

Cao Shu ordered the servants here to feed Liu Chang some hot soup later. She was about to go out, but was stopped by Liu An who appeared from nowhere.

"Grandmother!!"

"Keep down! What's going on?"

Liu An looked a little awkward, looked around, and asked, "Father isn't there?"

"Your father is asleep, tell me what's the matter! I have something urgent to do."

Only then did Liu An complain: "Mum, Lu Jia has rejected my assessment content several times, but he is not allowed to pass. He is self-willed and only believes in what he knows, and he is not willing to trust me at all. It's useless to say anything, I can't tell my father if you can take the time to say a few words to my father, Lu Jia won't take his word for it, I really can't persuade him... When you tell my father, you must Don’t say I told you to say it, just say you’re curious…”

"Zhuzi, that Duke Lu is a well-known Confucian in the country, a famous official in the court, how can you be rude to him? Besides, since he said no, there must be his reasons..."

"Mom, he refused because his knowledge is different from mine, so please tell my father..."

Liu An was very anxious. Although Lu Jia agreed to let him participate, he always opposed his proposal. It was just to select some county government officials. The content of the assessment was rejected by the old man, and he even threatened that there was no one in his group of talents. You must know that Liu An himself is the most outstanding disciple of Mr. Huang's new generation, and the rest of the talents are all Liu Chang carefully selected sages from the imperial academy, all of whom are elites of Huang and Lao, how could they be so humiliated by this guy?  …

But, this old man really has something, he can't talk about him, he can't beat him, he was born as a lobbyist, with his own opening of his mouth, everyone like Liu An was speechless, and they hid their faces. Go, this old man's martial arts is also surprisingly high. Liu An's Sheren Jumeng was furious when he saw this old man humiliating the prince so much, so he decided to imitate Emperor Gao and give this old man a hard time, but he just pulled out his sword Come, the old man covered his head with a scabbard, and Ju Meng was taken to the hospital on the spot, if the other party didn't
With the sword out of its sheath, Liu An and the others are ready to eat.

Liu An couldn't tell because he was suffering, and the knowledge he was proud of on weekdays was also vulnerable in front of this old man.

As Xunzi's favorite student, he is a ruthless man who studied Confucianism, law, and Huang Lao. Uncle Fuqiu admits that he is the one with the highest knowledge of Confucianism among Xunzi's current disciples. Although Liu An is also a ruthless man, he is young after all. Fu Qiubo, it was still too difficult for people of Lu Jia's level to confront each other.

Liu An has read a lot of books, but the other party has read more, and he touched his blind spot of knowledge when he opened his mouth.

How can these old Confucians who are obsessive can beat each other better?
Not long ago, Lu Jia, Fu Qiubo, Gong Yangshou and others got a large group of Confucianists out for an outing outside the city to discuss knowledge, and when they came back, they brought back a large number of prey, including wild boars and bears. The wild boar was stabbed to death with a spear, and it is said that he even encountered a tiger, but because the tiger was pregnant, he was kindly let go by these great scholars...

When Liu An heard about this, the first thing that came to his mind was that my father was not good at employing people, so I should have sent these people to Longxi to exchange knowledge. Kou, if he meets these great Confucians, he will be subdued on the spot.

Among other things, it is the old man among these Confucian scholars who is over sixty years old and can kill wild boars with a spear. It is a pity to let him be a great Confucian, and he should be sent directly to Xiting Kingdom as a Taiwei!!!
There are actually academic disputes between Liu An and Lu Jia. Liu An is a true descendant of Huang Lao, while Lu Jia represents the recently rising Confucianism. The leader of a generation of Confucianism is of course our elder, in fact, Jia Yi. Although the knowledge of the elder is indeed great, he once debated hundreds of schools with Fuqiubo, leaving them speechless and killing them randomly, but Jia Yi's knowledge still needs to be learned. relatively high...

But considering the current situation, Mr. Huang can't beat Confucianism... The main reason why Mr. Huang can't beat Confucianism is that Duke Gai is too old to get up.

Liu An was full of grievances, and looked at his mother pitifully. Although Cao Shu was very strict with him, she couldn't see her son's expression. She sighed, "Okay, okay, I will say a few words to your father, you Let's get out of the way, if you don't get out of the way, your brother will lose one..."

"what???"

When Cao Shu came to the other hall in a hurry, Liu Ci was already beaten and howled. Seeing Cao Shu coming, he cried and shouted: "Mum!! Why did you come?!"

Yong'e was full of grief and indignation, holding a wooden stick, beating and cursing while Liu Liang was trembling with fright, and was nervously eating his hands. …

"All right!"

Cao Shu scolded, Yong'e finally stopped, and then looked at Cao Shu aggrievedly, with tears in her eyes, "Sister, you don't know, this guy really scared me to death...he just..."

"I see! What problem can beating solve? How many times have I told you that you can't always slap your child..."

As Cao Shu said, she carefully hugged Liu Ci, and Liu Ci began to cry and complain, "She won't listen to you, as soon as you leave, she'll beat me up again. I'm going to my own kingdom. Tomorrow I will go back to Dai Kingdom to be king!!」

"You too!! Who told you to run? Why are we so worried?"

Cao Shu also reprimanded him a few words, and Liu Ci immediately stopped making trouble and stopped crying, but just lowered his head.

"This time, I must tell you Father!"

"Ah?! Mom, don't!!"

"If you dare to run the first time, you will definitely run the second time. I must tell you Father!"

"Mom, I will never run away again, really, I swear on my brother's honor!!"

Cao Shu looked at the dolls in front of her, feeling tired.

And at this moment, Liu Chang, who was drinking hot soup, was also looking around, and yelled in a daze, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?

.........

During this period of time, it was not only Mother Cao who suffered the most in Chang'an City, but also Chao Cuo.

Chao Cuo is not afraid of any punishment, someone like him

Even if a person is cut in half, he will not regret it, but there are two things he hates the most. The first thing is that the princes and kings are strong, and the second thing is that someone delays him from doing business. Now, it is obviously the second thing. For Chao Cuo, who was overly pursuing efficiency, inviting him to Ting Wei from time to time and not letting him do things was even more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Zhang Shizhi!! What enmity do I have with you?! You want to target me like this over and over again?!"

Chao Cuo was watched by the two armored soldiers, but he still roared angrily. Almost all his saliva sprayed on Zhang Shizhi's face, but Zhang Shizhi remained motionless, not paying attention to the angry Chao Cuo at all. , he asked calmly: "When you were harnessing the river, you announced that you would relocate 460 people, but after the temple gave permission, you secretly increased the number by 100? Is it true?"

"What kind of a big deal is this? I joined, and I pulled those people out and buried them alive!! What do you want?!"

Chao Cuo was extremely sad and indignant.

Zhang Shizhi said solemnly: "The temple will give relief and subsidies to the people who migrated. If you relocate more people, these people will not receive relief. What is the difference between you and burying them alive?! Two thousand and one hundred people , was kicked out by you in private without any protection, this is a very serious crime, you must tell the truth, otherwise, there is only one dead end!!”

"Stop pretending here, you go and investigate, if one of those relocated people dies, you will cut off my head now! If there is no one, let Naigong go out! Naigong still has important things to do!!"

"Don't worry, we have sent people to investigate, if someone dies because of you, you will be punished as homicide. "

Chao Cuo gritted his teeth, and asked in a cold voice: "I always thought you were an upright person, but I didn't expect that you would flatter others to murder a virtuous minister? Are you determined to become an eagle dog for Qu Nihuaiyin?!" …

"I'm not someone's eagle dog. I just received the impeachment. It's about you killing the people. Since someone impeaches me, I must take care of it!"

"You idiot!! This is someone using you to target me!!"

"You are wrong, why do you say it is targeted?! I just act according to the law."

Chao Cuo opened his mouth a few times, wanting to curse, but held back, it is useless to this fellow, in the whole temple, Chao Cuo and Zhang Shizhi are probably like iron-headed children, with unrepentant personalities, His stubborn nature made Xuan Yi feel ashamed, just like Liu Chang couldn't change Chao Cuo, and Chao Cuo couldn't change Zhang Shizhi either. Once this guy makes a decision, he won't turn back when he smashes the south wall. Drowning in the Yellow River will not soften it.

"Okay, let me say, I'll tell you whatever you ask, but I want to know, what happened to the evaluation by the officials outside? This matter is very important, please tell me the truth!"

Zhang Shizhi said calmly: "It has been handed over to the crown prince to take care of it, under the supervision of Duke Lu."

"What?! What can they do?!"

"Let me out quickly!!!"

When Chao Cuo was thrown into the prison again, he found that he had more inmates. Under the window, a few men with bruised noses and swollen faces were sitting, chatting cheerfully. When they saw Chao Cuo, they quickly He recognized him, and hurriedly stood up to salute. Chao Cuo stared at them for a long time, and finally recognized them, Zhou Zuoche, Luan Ping, Zhou Sheng... Isn't this just those dudes in Chang'an?
Chao Cuo didn't want to pay attention to them at first, but suddenly remembered something, put away the disdain on his face, and sat beside them.

"How did you get in here?"

"Oh... Lord Chao, don't mention it, it's all due to Xia Houci!"

Chao Cuo searched the crowd for a while, and finally looked at the younger guy. He could tell from his appearance that he was from Xiahou's family.

Zhou Sheng said helplessly; "This guy told us that his father is not here, and that there are many beautiful chariots at home, and he said he would take us to borrow one..."

"The results of it?"

"As soon as I touched the chariot, I was caught, and I was beaten with a stick..."

Zhou Sheng couldn't help but took a deep breath, and then looked at Xia Houci.

Summer:

Hou Ci was also the youngest among these people. At this moment, he asked confidently; "Just say whether my father is at home?"
"Your father is not here, but your elder father is at home!! Why don't you say that?!"

"You didn't ask!!"

"I will follow you to borrow things again, I will be a dog!"

Chao Cuo didn't care about their behavior at all, but asked thoughtfully, "How are you getting along with the prince?"

"Very good, we keep in touch."

"Yes, at your present age, you should be the age to do great things. Being able to follow the crown prince to do things can be regarded as living up to your father's prestige. In this way, I am now being killed by a female gangster and trapped in this prison, but I have some policies that are very important, even if they need to be sent to the prince, would you be willing to send a letter for me?"

"Ah? You were also victimized by female thieves? In Chang'an, female thieves are everywhere, and there is no way for talented people like us to survive!"

Zhou Sheng and the others were probably filled with righteous indignation because they felt sorry for each other, and immediately expressed their willingness to send a letter for Chao Cuo. …

It's just that Chao Cuo doesn't have letters here, they can only pass them on orally, but... the wisdom of these people, it is very difficult to remember Chao Cuo's words, Chao Cuo is a character that is not easy to give up, after realizing hope, He taught again and again, and finally, they were able to tell the general meaning of Chao Cuo, and Chao Cuo breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly ordered: "Later, they will definitely take you out, wait for you to go out Now, we must immediately find the prince and tell him what we just said, understand?"

"only!!!"

As Chao Cuo said, soon, the dark-faced Xuan Moru came to hunt for people. He was an official of Ting Wei, and he was very embarrassed. After asking the soldiers to release these scorpions, he Grabbing Xuan Ping, he slapped him on the head several times. Xuan Ping just held his head, and Xuan Moru scolded: "Well, you bastard!! Your father's face has been lost by you. Father is upright, and I have never committed any crimes in my life, but when it comes to you, why do you do these things all day long?"

"This time it was actually stolen from Marquis Ru Yin? Do you know who Marquis Ru Yin is?!"

"I know! He is my great father!!"

Xia Houci hastily raised his hand and said, Xuan Moru was also polite and grabbed him too.

"And you little thing, at such a young age, why do you want to hang out with them? Your father is fighting in Xiting Kingdom. Do you feel worthy of him? If your father finds out, what will he think?! "

Seeing Xuan Moru lose his temper, the group of sages just lowered their heads, not daring to participate.

Xuan Ping had no choice but to go because Xuan Moru took him home, and the rest hurried towards Liu An's mansion.

Looking at the content of the assessment in front of him, Liu An was overwhelmed. The Lu family refused again and again. It seems that he still has to wait until his father speaks before he can complete it... There is obviously no problem with the content. For the officials of the county government Isn't it enough to test their laws, test their martial arts, and test their analysis of cases?! Why don't you agree?
While Liu An was meditating, a large group of sages poured into his mansion, and the family members knew that these were Liu An's friends, so they did not stop them.

"Ann! Ann! We have something important to do!!"

Zhou Sheng couldn't wait to rush to Liu An's side, and told about his encounter with Chao Cuo in Tingwei's prison.

"Talking? What did he say?"

Zhou Sheng hesitated, "He said... reading is useless?"

"No, he said writing is useless!"

"No, he clearly said that the essay assessment is useless, you need to take a practical test!"

Several people chattered at one another, but Liu An understood what Chao Cuo meant, and hurriedly asked, "Is there anything else?"

"He said that the examiner should be allowed to see the gate!"

"No, he said he wanted those people to pretend to be county government officials!"

"I remember that they were asked to try to become officials of the county government and given a two-month probationary period?"

"No rush, no

Hurry up, tell me one by one, someone, get your pen and ink!!"
