Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 684
Although Chen Tao and the others showed a fearless appearance, their neat retreating steps proved their courage.

Have courage, but not much.

As the emperor's first servant, Luan Bu looked educated and reasonable, but no one dared to despise him. This is a real gentleman, but his temper is also really irritable. If you offend him, this guy is real Those who dare to kill, and if they are killed by such a person, I am afraid that they will be stigmatized for thousands of years in the future. After all, Luan Bu's reputation is quite good, unlike Zhang Buyi and Chao Cuo. Who could be killed?
Chen Tao has been following Liu Chang for a long time, and he understands the importance of this person better.

Luan Bu frowned, his expression extremely displeased, "Come in and talk!"

Chen Tao looked at the people around him, and then carefully followed Luan Bu into the mansion. This appearance was completely different from the aggressive appearance he had come to inquire a few days ago. As soon as the few people sat down, Luan Bu became angry. Rebuked: "How on earth do you do things?! Do you want to be executed?!"

Everyone stood up in horror.

In this situation, of course, Liu An is needed to be a peacemaker. He said with a smile, "Mr. Luan didn't mean anything, but the Mo family did something in the Taixue that violated the law. Please sit down, gentlemen."

Chen Tao sat down in amazement, and asked, "What laws can be violated in the Taixue? I heard from them that they were only targeted because the schools did not agree."

Luan Bu said solemnly: "At the beginning, His Majesty asked you to teach in Taixue, and wanted you to revitalize Mohism, but you didn't pay attention to His Majesty's decree, so you immediately recruited a group of people to serve as sacrificial wine, and asked them to recruit disciples. Do you know what the priests you recruited did? Do you know who they recruited? If it wasn't for such dereliction of duty, I would kill you now, what else do you have to say? "

Chen Tao stood up again in horror, "I don't know these things"

Liu Jing nodded, and then stretched out his hand.

"What?"

"My Huang-Lao School actually has the same theories and ideas as Mohism. If Mohism lacks everyone, I can dispatch a few Huang-Lao people to give lectures instead of Zhugong. I don't have to worry about such things happening again. I can help them As a guarantee, what do you think?"

"I'm leaving soon, I'm really sad, so let me tell you a joke about Xia Houzao!"

Liu Ci just nodded and patted his chest, "Da Lang, come on, take a stab at this lock, let me see your martial arts, and when I go out, I will worship you as my prime minister, we will eat meat together, Da Lang Drink in a bowl and enjoy the glory and wealth in Xia Kingdom!"

After eating, Liu Chang walked out the door.

"Your Majesty, do you really know that you are wrong?"

Liu Ci's eyes suddenly became a little vigilant, and he looked at Xuan Ping a few times, "Why are you wearing armor?"

He was silent for a moment, and asked, "Amma really cried?"

Yong'e snorted coldly, "Although my father is stubborn, he never had such a bad habit."

"I did participate in the assessment."

But Liu Chang was silent for a moment, "You don't have to blame me. The world is up to me. I can't be unfair. Besides, we were born in the family of princes and emperors. This is also our duty. The sages who followed me are now scattered all over the world. They are all in the most difficult positions. When I was young, I promised to take you to enjoy the blessings. I never thought about it. After I got older, I started to take you to endure hardships. However, if we don’t do these things, who will do them? ? People like Fu Qing can accomplish great things, why can't all the sages?"

Lu Lu took out drinks from nowhere, and Mrs. Fan took out a few pieces of wheat and rice from the horseback. Everyone sat on the ground, and this place became a small private banquet.

"Fourth Day"

Xiao Liuzhen sat obediently in Yong'e's arms and talked about the things in the prison.

Inside Tingwei's prison, Liu Ciji sat on the ground. At this moment, he was dressed in rags, his handsome face was darkened, and he raised his head blankly, like a salted fish that had lost faith.

As he said that, he waved to Liu Bo again, "Okay, don't stand here stupidly, go back and rest, don't delay the Taixue class tomorrow."

Mrs. Fan finally couldn't help but speak, but the people of Fan City laughed, "Brother, you don't have to say too much about this matter. Of course, Your Majesty has his own considerations. It's actually not bad to be able to leave Chang'an this time. Taixue is really not a good thing." Where to go, I’ve been working there for several years, and I’m extremely exhausted. Let’s just say my elder brother. I’m standing next to him. If he doesn’t know, he thinks he’s my son! Beiting Kingdom is remote, but it’s not necessarily a bad place to go. .”

Mrs. Fan let out a long sigh, "It's too far away even for a chancellor. The two of us are brothers, one is in Beiting and the other is in Wa. I don't know if we will see each other again in this lifetime."

"What kind of code do you need? Do you think it's an inspection in the army? You have to match the code?"

Seeing Liu Ye who suddenly appeared in front of him, Liu Ci hurriedly got up, not bothering to correct her address, and put his face on the wooden fence, "Ye?! Great, you open this door quickly!"

Lu Lu laughed and scolded: "What is this, openly assassinating a third prince of the country? If you do this, your title will be lost. Since you are chased by that person, you must fulfill your duties and establish a reputation that is greater than him. Get more appreciation, how can there be such a reason to cover people with black cloth?"

Just when Dong Zhongshu was full of emotions, the door not far away was slowly opened, and someone came in bouncingly.

Liu Bo lowered his head and did not speak.

"Repent?? I knew my fault a long time ago, but what's the use of it?"

Liu An said softly: "Everyone, don't worry about the things in the Taixue. I know that it has little to do with you. It was my father's intention to recruit these people at the beginning. What you are good at is not teaching, but also I hope you can understand that the reason why so many Mohists were arrested this time is not because of some academic targeting, but because the Mohism itself has too many problems."

Lu Lu had already been waiting outside the door, and when he saw Liu Chang coming out, the two got into the car together.

The people from Fan City comforted him.

"You didn't take money from your fourth brother, did you?"

The Fan City people were taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

"Then why don't you go??"

The people of Fan City waved their hands and bid farewell to everyone, and the carriage slowly disappeared into the distance.

Being reprimanded by his younger sister like this, Liu Ci's face was also a little uncomfortable.

"Fourth Brother!!"

Fan Qing just rolled her eyes, and muttered, "Why don't you go tell Aunt about this?"

"Huh?? Who is Aping?"

Dong Zhongshu was silent for a moment, "Your Majesty, it's no wonder Your Highness the Crown Prince. As far as your words are concerned, other people would probably have been punished by the family long ago. You always do this, talking nonsense, this is the way to bring disaster, you Now that you've fallen to this point, you don't regret your mistakes, and compare yourself to Lord Xinling, if the Crown Prince finds out what you said, wouldn't you be imprisoned for another ten days?"

Liu Chang was sitting not far away, eating meat and listening to his little daughter's narration.

Liu Chang pursed his lips, "Actually, I've wanted to do this for a long time. This guy stole my limelight. Let him owe the beating first, and when there is a chance in the future, our brothers will definitely get it back." !"

Dong Zhongshu sighed, "It seems that we are destined to die alone in this prison."

"If you don't believe me, why are you waiting here?"

"That's natural, I shouldn't say that I support Ann, I should support Wuwu~~"

"I found Aping!"

Speaking of Fu Qing, Mrs. Fan quickly woke up, "Your Majesty, that guy Fu Qing is famous all over the world!! Why do you think this guy just killed a barbarian? Don't we kill a few people?" ? I heard these people brag about Fu Qing all day long in Chang'an, and I was really angry. One day you call him into Chang'an, let's take a black cloth and cover his head."

Liu Chang had enough to eat and drink. In the past few days, Liu Chang was still very comfortable. He directly left the affairs of the court to Liu An, and he himself had a rare chance to rest. Gathered his own doctors and wandered around. Most of the doctors he took with him were literati and refined scholars. Every time Liu Chang went to a place, he would ask them to write Fu. The doctors also knew the meaning of the emperor. They all praised and flattered the emperor, and Liu Chang was also very satisfied, so Lu Lu rewarded them.

Liu Chang stared at him sharply, "Are you going to run like those children from Chehou?? Didn't you participate in the assessment?"

"There are still three days, right? How can I endure this? This is simply the cruelest torture in the world. Unexpectedly, I am so talented, but it still aroused the jealousy of my brother. Back then, I heard that the king of Wei State was jealous of his younger brother. Lord Ling, when I wanted to force him to death, I still didn’t believe it. I never thought that this day would finally fall on my head. Beloved. Why does heaven treat me like this, Liu Ci?"

"You still dare to bring my sister here privately??"

Liu Chang looked at her expression, but he already understood. He also glanced at Fan Qing, "Both sides asked for money. I don't know who they followed."

Chen Tao was stunned, "We are too short of everyone who can teach. Your Highness knows that we are knighted because of our craftsmanship. According to Your Majesty, we are all practical, not theoretical. Let I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for us to explain the theory to the Tai students, but as for the solution, I really can't think of it."

"The matter of pleading guilty is another matter, that is, the problem of Mohism today. Because of my father, Mohism does not lack classics now, and there are talents like you, and the reputation in the world is also good. Why is it not as good as other schools when it develops and grows? Why are there so many problems? Has Chen Gong ever thought of a solution?"

Liu An grinned.

Mrs. Fan subconsciously wanted to kick him, but the people in Fan City smiled and avoided him.

Liu An nodded, "I have an idea, please listen first."

Liu Jie sighed, "I don't have a key, and you won't be able to get out if you open it. There are soldiers outside."

"understood."

"Zhongshu, how old is it?"

Fan Kang watched his younger brother go away calmly, and sighed again.

He saw someone stand up and salute Liu Ci with bitterness on his face. This person was Xuan Moru's son Xuan Ping.

Liu Jie interrupted him displeased, "You can do it, I brought you something to eat, you can eat something at ease, and then wait for the big brother to let you go, you are still bragging here, don't you know I know how sad my aunt has been these past few days. She doesn’t think about food and drink, and cries for you every day. She has lost a lot of weight. The aunt always asks about your situation, saying that you can’t let you suffer too much. You Why are you so selfish?"

Chen Tao looked at Liu An, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, but how can Mr. Huang teach the methods of the Mohist school? Besides, will these scholars belong to Mo or Mr. Huang in the future?"

Liu Jing hurriedly rolled her eyes, "How is this possible? Where does my fourth brother have money?"

"Of course you don't know. You are busy with business, and you are the only one in the world who is serious about business?! His Majesty trusts you and entrusts you with such an important matter, so you just do it? In the entire Taixue, it is actually Your Mo family hides the most traitors, it is really unimaginable, you have listened to other people's words, and dare to question His Highness the Crown Prince?! You must give His Majesty an explanation for this matter!"

Yong'e smiled, took out the money from her pocket, and handed it to her, "Don't spend the money indiscriminately, save it all, understand?"

"Ugh"

"I studied with Taixue before, but later left Taixue because of illness and participated in the assessment. Now I am working as an errand in Ting Wei, responsible for running errands and so on."

"Then do you want to set up a secret signal or something so that I can connect with those people?"

Chen Tao let out a long sigh, with a guilty expression on his face, "It's my fault, I'm going to write a letter to apologize."

Liu Ci suddenly felt a little uneasy, "Hey, so, after you go back, pass a message for me, so that my mother will not be sad, I already know that I was wrong, and I will go out as soon as possible."

Liu Chang looked at Mrs. Fan with a smile, "It has to be a child of our family, he is different from those princes who go to Taixue to dawdle! He also took the lead in participating in the assessment."

"One hundred dollars for food, three hundred dollars for word of mouth!"

"When the time comes, I will try my best. I will bear it for now. When I return to Xia Kingdom, there will be a fierce man like Fu Qing to assist me. What else should I worry about?"

The people of Fan City said helplessly.

"Then how did you get in?"

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was very active.

Liu Jie stretched out her hand hastily, "Aunt!! I've done everything you arranged!"

"Your Majesty, he committed the crime of dereliction of duty. You took his title, that's fine. Why did you send him to that place in the north?"

Dong Zhongshu's condition is still good, both in dress and appearance, they are relatively clean, and he is sitting not far away at the moment, reciting what he has learned in the past.

Liu Chang was the first to wake up, and looked at Liu Bo who was standing not far away, "It's because you are a little filial, knowing that you are coming to see off uncle and you have sent so many things, it's not bad."

Chen Tao also frowned, "I really never thought that such a thing would happen. Because of Shangfang's affairs, I couldn't get away to govern the Taixue, so I invited some people who had studied the Mohism to join the Mohist School and let them come to the Mohist School. Teach students. We people are good at work, but not good at teaching."

She said, and glanced at Liu Chang, but Liu Chang was not affected at all, and said while eating: "Probably the wind of Marquis Yong."

Luan Bu didn't speak any more, but just looked at these Mohist people sternly.

Liu Ci glanced at him, "What are you afraid of, don't worry, when my father and mother find out, they will order me to be rescued!"

Everyone chatted happily, and it was not until the arrival of Dai Wang Liu Bo that their small banquet ended.

Liu Bo also brought a car, many of which are things that can be used when traveling. Liu Bo was also a little bit reluctant to leave the townspeople. He saluted his uncle again and again, and then said: "Uncle Take care of yourself along the way and take care of yourself. If anything happens, you can write to me."

"I thought His Majesty would not come to see me off."

"You bastard! I'm your real brother!! I love you so much on weekdays, yet you still ask me for money?!"

Liu Chang sat down directly beside the carriage, regardless of whether the ground was dirty or not, and the other three sat down together, then Liu Chang said: "The character of a city man is not suitable for Tai Xue, but he has a way of making friends. , but the people in Taixue are not good stubblers, how can he hold on? I let him go to Beiting Kingdom, of course I have my own ideas, Beiting Kingdom currently only has one Chai Wu, and the rest are not enough to bear An important task, the people of the city go to Beiting Kingdom to go to the prime minister's mansion to be an official. , he needs a prudent and generous Prime Minister. Moreover, Xia Guo has also made many big moves, and Beiting has the important task of connecting the Three Kingdoms."

"Then let's manage Wa Island well with all our heart. As long as the two of us brothers have made some achievements, we can still meet each other when we return to Chang'an to pay our respects."

"Father, I won't study too much starting tomorrow."

"Your Majesty. Tomorrow, I will leave too."

Several people stood silently by the side of the road, looking into the distance, without speaking.

Lu Lu comforted: "This time you go to Beiting, don't worry too much, I've ordered everything, along the way, there are post houses I opened, you can go in and rest, Beiting also has my property, Anyway, when the time comes, someone will take the initiative to find you."

"He was worried all the time, so he didn't say any more nonsense, and asked me to speak for him, telling my aunt not to worry."

The people waiting here are of course the people from Fanshi and Mrs. Fan. Now that the people from Fanshi have lost their titles, they have to go to Beiting Kingdom, but his expression is not decadent. It is Mrs. Fan who looks radiant. I can't bear it.

Liu Chang looked at this somewhat familiar scene, and then looked at Fan Qing.

At this moment, on the side of the main road leading to the north, there was a carriage parked. There were four knights, a servant driving the carriage, and the other two were standing beside the carriage and chatting. Soon, Liu Chang's carriage appeared Here, Liu Chang jumped out of the car and followed Lu Lu over.

"Yeah. I'm crying so hard."

"All belong to Han."

"Father asked me to bring it here"

Before Yong'e could speak, Fan Qing said with a smile: "Although this Shuzi is a jerk, he is filial and not bad in nature, even if he is dissolute, I don't know who he has followed."

Before Liu Ci finished speaking, Dong Zhongshu blocked his mouth first. Dong Zhongshu said calmly, "Your Majesty, you are willing to stay here. I will not stop you, but please wait until I leave here before saying such a thing."

"Failed the assessment!"

Liu Bo replied straightforwardly.

Liu Chang took off his shoes immediately, and Mrs. Fan hurried forward to dissuade him.

For a while, the sun was setting, the sunset was like fire, and chickens were flying and dogs were jumping on the side of the road, which was extremely lively.
