Father Han Gaozu

"Father! I don't want to marry!"

"Why do you want me to marry such a rascal?!"

The young woman, who was only twenty years old, had red eyes and a stubborn look on her face. She was holding on to Father's hand and questioning him angrily.

The middle-aged man looked a little angry, and looked towards the courtyard in a panic, "Keep your voice low! If people can hear it, how decent is it?!"

"If you hear it, you will hear it! I heard people say that he is a well-known prodigal in the county. He is not married but has a son. He has no money today, but he lied about tens of thousands of dollars. I will not marry such a rotten person! You If you like him that much, you might as well marry him yourself!"

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. The old lady on the side also persuaded: "The people sitting in the front seats are all prominent people in the county. Even the county magistrate respects you in every way, and the official Xiao , is also handsome, there are so many talented people, if you don't marry a daughter, why do you want to marry your daughter to that rascal?"

The middle-aged man said indignantly: "We offended the adults in the old place, so we can only escape here. Everyone here is indeed richer than him, but marrying our daughter to them is just begging for their protection. , it is inevitable to be despised, this pavilion head has a bad reputation, but his family is poor, and the dowry is rich, so he will not let his daughter be despised. Besides, this person is quite extraordinary. Courage? The few standing next to him are all burly warriors. Facing the county magistrate and others, they are not afraid of being supported by such people. He is also a local hero. , Qin Ban fights privately, if the enemy comes to the door, don't you need someone like him to help you?"

"Besides, the restlessness is becoming more and more everywhere. If something happens in the future, the one who can do great things, wouldn't it be someone like him?"

The woman wanted to say something, but the man waved his hand, "I've already made up my mind, stop talking!"

The young and beautiful woman's eyes were full of resentment. Seeing her father walk out of the inner room, she gritted her teeth and rushed out. My mother exclaimed, but failed to stop her. When she rushed out of the inner room , when he was about to yell at that rascal, he saw that rascal, who everyone said was unbearable, sitting in the front seat triumphantly.

He was tall, mighty, and had a very nice beard. He raised his head at this moment, looked at the dignitaries sitting in front of him, and laughed wantonly.

He took a sip of the wine and took another bite of the meat, "I came to the master's family banquet and ate some of his wine and meat. He came to welcome me. This is in accordance with the etiquette. I ate his wine and meat today, and I will naturally eat his wine and meat in the future." Repayment. It’s just that the host looked down on people, and what he did was really not polite. He summoned the heroes in the county, but he had to rely on the money they donated to distinguish the seats. Xi, is this the attitude towards customers?"

"Can heroes be measured by money?!"

"If you want to classify heroes by money, there is a widow in Shu who is probably the number one hero in the world!"

"Since you have summoned a hero! Why use money to humiliate him?!"

"A mediocre fool sits in the front seat, while a hero sits in the bottom seat. How can there be such a reason? Haha, county magistrate, I'm not talking about you."

"I just saved their family, just treat them differently, and change to someone who is a bit bloody. One of the front seats counts as one, and the master's family will be robbed and killed by you! Haha, county magistrate, of course, I am not I'm talking about you, you are fine!"

"Scholar can be killed and cannot be humiliated. I said ten thousand yuan, and I got the front seat. If I said one hundred thousand yuan, wouldn't I be recognized as my father? Hahaha, of course, the county magistrate, I didn't mean You!"

The man looked arrogant, and he uttered nonsense to everyone in front of him, even to my father, which made my father feel guilty, but no one dared to refute him, everyone's face turned red, and they just cursed in a low voice: " Shameless!"

The woman was a little confused, the man seemed to feel her gaze, suddenly turned his head, his eyes met, the man grinned, looked straight at the woman, and suddenly blinked.

"rogue."

Empress Lu suddenly opened her eyes, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, but it disappeared quickly.

It was just dawn when the maids heard the movement and hurried in, helped Empress Lu to wash, and sat in front of the bronze mirror. Empress Lu calmly looked at herself in the bronze mirror. She tidied up her white hair.

The young girl back then is already full of silver hair now, only the afterimage of that peerless beauty can be vaguely seen in her face.

For some reason, Empress Lu recalled the past more and more frequently recently, and even in her dreams, she could always dream of those who had passed away.

Father, mother, elder brother, even Liu Bang.

The breakfast was very simple. Ever since she married Liu Bang, Empress Lu had never enjoyed a meal that was too luxurious. I remember that when I was very young, I ate well. After fighting against each other day by day, she was displaced until the establishment of the big man, Liu Bang changed his mind again, fell in love with that bitch, began to suppress her power, maliciously eliminated her brother's influence, and dealt with the Lu family.

She was once again busy cleaning up the situation for her son and seeking justice for the Lu family. Gradually, she got used to these ordinary meals and was not picky about food. The people in the harem deliberately ate such simple meals to please her and let her know .

Only Mrs. Bo back then was just like herself, she ate ordinary food, and she respected Lu Zhi very much.

Thinking of that lady, Empress Lu couldn't help but think of the current Doctor Yushi.

I was able to allow this foreign king to act independently in the temple, probably because I was thinking of the friendship with his mother. After all, I really didn't have a single friend in my life, and Mrs. Bo was half of them.

She suddenly asked: "Does the Yushi doctor have a performance?"

"some."

The court lady hurriedly presented the memorial, and Empress Lu spread the memorial on the table, and watched it carefully while eating.

"Heh, this Zhuzi has a good idea. The purpose of actively involving the Taiwei in government affairs is to allow the Taiwei to intervene in a reasonable way during the restructuring. Everything this Zhuzi does is carefully premeditated, which is far from the truth. It’s beyond that scorpion who can do whatever comes to his mind”

Empress Lu calmly read Liu Heng's memorabilia, and Liu Heng would write letters to Empress Lu from time to time, sometimes to report his achievements, sometimes to ask the Empress Dowager for help, and sometimes just to simply tell about his own situation .

Empress Lu knew very well that this was actually Liu Heng's fear of her. In the whole world, no one was not afraid of her, even if it was the Taiwei who stood above everyone else, he would feel a little uneasy when facing himself.

"Tell Heng that for the restructuring, the most important thing to recover is not the Taiwei, but Lu Jia."

"Don't think that Lu Jia will obey his orders unconditionally because he is close to His Majesty in secret. Lu Jia has been in charge of the Fengchang Mansion for many years. Unlike Zhang Buyi and others, if he can't be persuaded, nothing can be done with his support. , the Fengchang Mansion is too large, and nine of the ten things in the world come from the Fengchang Mansion. If Lu Jia clearly objects, it will be useless even if the Taiwei and Prime Minister Zhang come forward. At worst, Lu Jia will resign and go home directly. The officials in the Fengchang Mansion are mixed together, without Lu Jia taking the lead, even if the Taiwei kills them all, it will be of no avail. They are the ones who really do things."

"only."

"By the way, tell Heng again, don't think about convincing Lu Jia through eloquence, and don't even think about using strength to persuade him. You must let him see that this matter is indeed beneficial to the big man, and don't be so contemptuous of those who founded the country. .”

The maid took the order, turned and left.

Empress Lv shook her head, these uprights in China are useless!
Liu Heng doesn't seem to have any flaws. In fact, like his brothers, he has the problem of being easily bossed. He is very stable on weekdays, but when encountering major events, he is easy to lose control and act recklessly. Liu Chang is on the contrary. But they are very calm when encountering major events, and they still have the old hooligans in their bones.

Empress Lu brought needles and thread, and the spring is coming to an end, so she wanted to make some summer clothes.

Since marrying Liu Bang, Empress Lu has been busy at home all year round. She is very skilled in farming and weaving, and she is not very dependent. She always likes to do things by herself. Liu Ying, Liu Chang and the others Most of their clothes were made by Empress Lu herself.

The needle hole is not too thin, but Empress Lu's eyesight is no longer very good, and she couldn't thread the thread even after doing it a few times.

The maid at the side wanted to help, but was too scared to speak.

At this time, if you want to help her thread, there will inevitably be suspicions that the Queen Mother is old and weak. The Queen Mother has a domineering and violent personality. I don’t know how many people have lost their positions because of wrong words in these years. They dare not speak indiscriminately. By the queen mother's side, I don't want to be meritorious, but I want to be innocent.

Empress Lu was a little upset. Could it be that she was too old to even thread a thread?
"Mother!!"

Suddenly there was an exclamation, and Empress Lu turned her head to look, but it was the little princess who ran in. As if she had discovered some shocking secret, she sat excitedly in Empress Lu's arms, staring straight at her. Big Mom's eyes, "Big Mom! I found something!"

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I suspect that my fourth brother pretended to be the third brother and threw the third brother out to serve in corvee!"

Empress Lu chuckled, "Why?"

"Because third brother swears today! And he uttered a lot of swear words at once. Everyone knows that my third brother can't swear. He must be pretending to be fourth brother!"

"Oh? That's interesting. Where did you hear that?"

"After the third brother came out of the Hall of Houde, he didn't see me, so he muttered those dirty words in a daze."

Empress Lu's face darkened, "This Zhuzi has started to mislead my family's children again, you have to be good, don't learn from your father and brother, do you understand?"

"Well, I know!"

"How have you been playing recently?"

"It's all okay, but my father goat doesn't like father ape, and the two of them quarreled when they met. Just yesterday, father goat got angry and asked father ape to roll into the forest where he lived. Father ape said he would talk to him Father Goat fights one-on-one, and then Father Goat said he can compare to Xiang. Xiang or something? Father Ape said that he went up to the mountain to protect the Monkey King when he fought all the invincible opponents."

Empress Lu almost laughed out loud.

Liu Jie liked to give people nicknames based on their appearance. Han Xin was called a goat because of his beard, and Zhao Tuo had extremely long hands and a hunchback, so she naturally called him an ape.

Empress Lu shook her head, "You shouldn't have let the chief take you to Shanglinyuan to see animals. Look at the name you chose, majestic King of Nanyue, you actually called him an ape!"

"Father Ape is very happy, he is not angry at all."

"Okay, okay, then spend more time with them, and keep an eye on your third brother to see if he is a fake."

"it is good!"

Liu Jing said seriously: "I will definitely find out!"

After Liu Jie left, Empress Lu looked at the court lady beside her and asked, "Has the chief called everyone together to prepare a reply to King Anxi?"

The palace lady nodded, "Lu Junhou said: His Majesty summoned the Langzhong and asked everyone like Mei Cheng to write letters to insult King Anxi for him. Most of these literati refused to use vulgar words, and were reprimanded by His Majesty. Come and write it yourself. The content I heard is extremely unbearable.”

Empress Lu was furious, "What's the point? The two countries sent envoys to waste time talking nonsense? Now send someone to tell Liu Chang not to act like a child. If you want to attack the Anxi Kingdom, then pretend to make peace with him." Alright, exchange messengers, investigate the situation, inquire about the military situation, if you want to make friends with Anxi, then apologize in the letter, send gifts and do something practical!! Send people to insult each other, how decent?! This is what a king should do Something?!"

"Going right now!"

"only!"

During these days, Empress Lu just sat in the Changle Palace, seemingly ignoring everything, but in fact, she was always the first to understand the internal and external affairs, and Wang Tianqi sent someone to inform her of the external affairs. Internal matters, of course, are handled by Lu Lu.

Now Wang Tianqi has resigned and lives in Chang'an, and Jia Yi took over this task and began to report the situation in various places for Empress Lu.

Empress Lu will not interfere with major affairs in the court, but sometimes she will take the initiative to remind Liu Chang and play a supervisory role.

Empress Lu was a little tired of staying in the palace, so she let the maid help her to go outside the palace.

It is spring, and everything is revived.

Liu Chang created a lot of magnificent scenery in Changle Palace, including lakes, pavilions, and many places to relax according to the style of the Han Dynasty. Even Liu Heng can't say anything about Liu Chang's behavior. After all, this is out of filial piety, and the great man governs the world with filial piety, and doing anything for filial piety is right.

Empress Lu was a little dissatisfied.

"This place has made this place so luxurious. I've been thrifty for half my life, but I've been given the notoriety of being extravagant at this old age."

The servant smiled and said: "This is His Majesty's filial piety, how could it be a bad name?"

"This palace is built so luxuriously, which shows how filial His Majesty is."

Empress Lu's face turned cold.

"Can filial piety be measured by money?!"

The valet's face was pale, his head was lowered, and he hastily pleaded guilty, not daring to say more.

Empress Lu was stunned for a moment, and continued to walk in the palace, unknowingly, fell into deep thought again, when she came to her senses, somehow, she actually appeared in front of the ancestral temple.

The ancestral temple is in the middle of Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace.

Now, the old woman's beloved and eldest son are here.

The officials guarding the temple were a little panicked. Since the death of Emperor Gao, the Empress Dowager has never visited him once.

Empress Lu just looked at the temple in front of her coldly.

This world is becoming a bit cold, and most of the familiar people are already in the opposite world.

I don't know if my elder brother dealt with that villain severely for me.

"Queen, do you want to go in and worship?"

The servant asked cautiously, and Empress Lu snorted coldly, "Who says I'm here to worship?"

She casually pointed to a small official not far away, motioning him to come forward.

"You are Wang Tianqi's grandson, right?"

Wang Chulong hastily paid homage to him, "Report to the Queen Mother, my minister Chulong"

"I ordered your elder father to send all the family property, family members, and retainers of the previous offenders to Beiting Kingdom. Has your elder father completed it?"

Wang Chulong was a little confused, "I don't know. It must be done."

"Your elder father is old, I can't bear to let him run around anymore, you go and ask about this matter, and then come back and report."

"only!!"

Empress Lu turned around and left here, her appearance was very determined.

Returning to the Shrine Hall again, Empress Lu competed with the needle and thread again, her eyes became more and more blurred, the old lady was so stubborn, she didn't want to ask others to help, she was in a hurry, she almost got her hand stabbed, and the attendant trembled when she saw it.

"Mother!!!"

Hearing a roar, Liu Chang crashed into the Shrine Hall without saluting, and sat directly in front of Empress Lu, and then saw her fiddling with the needle and thread.

Liu Chang snatched the needle and thread from her hand.

"It's a lot of age, and the hands are shaking like this. What kind of needlework are you still playing with? What should I do if my hands hurt?"

"To make clothes, let Shu come"

Empress Lu was very displeased, "I am old, but I am not so useless."

"Is it very useful to make clothes? I don't know how to make clothes, I only know how to wear them! Mother, one must be ambitious, and can't be a woman, sewing, mending, how decent! We mother and son have to do event!"

Empress Lu laughed angrily, "Do something big? Why? Are you going to drag me into rebellion?"

"What rebellion? I'm going to do something big. Didn't my mother always talk about those uncles? I'm going to posthumously make my two uncles king. Of course, their heirs can't inherit the title. , still still a marquis, but build a temple for them both, set up a sacrificial offering or something."

Empress Lu trembled all over and hesitated for a moment.

"So inappropriate. With a white horse alliance. Set a bad precedent."

"Both my two uncles have made a lot of contributions. Besides, they are no longer alive. They are just posthumous titles. What precedent can they set? And don't you always talk about this?"

Empress Lu shook her head, "I used to care about these things a lot, but now that I think about it, people are gone, so what's the use of chasing after them? It's just a false name, they don't care, and I don't care either. In the future, when you sacrifice to your father and grandfather, don't forget to sacrifice to your two uncles, and I will be satisfied."

Liu Chang shook his head, "Didn't I set up the Zhonglie Pavilion? The ministers insisted on ranking. Their rankings are based entirely on their preferences, regardless of merit. The popularity is at the top. The second uncle also Forget it, the eldest uncle is actually in the middle. But mother, don't worry, I will let them rank at the top. Is it really unreasonable? The mediocre ones are at the front, and the ones with outstanding achievements are at the bottom. Is this Zhonglie Pavilion rewarding meritorious officials or humiliating meritorious officials? ? Huh, if you meet a strong-tempered emperor, there are only these people, one counts as one.”

"If you are popular, you can be ahead if you have many friends. Then wouldn't I be able to hang a portrait on the roof with my popularity?"

Empress Lu looked blankly at the figure in front of her.

Feeling Grandma's gaze, Liu Chang suddenly grinned.

"Mother! I will definitely finish this matter properly!"

ps: Empress Lu's solo commentary has also been completed, I think every [-] or [-] chapters, there will be such a solo commentary, if you still have someone's solo commentary that you want to see, please let me know.
