Chapter 415 The Art of the Emperor
After Jian Shuo left, Liu Hong beckoned, Zhang Rang walked over with a bow, and called His Majesty softly.

"Father, go and call my two emperors, I want to see them."

Not long after, the two princes came here.

"I have met my father." The two princes stepped into the hall, respectful and courteous.

Liu Hong slightly raised his hand on the dragon couch, Zhang Rang understood, and carefully helped the emperor to sit up.

Today's His Majesty the Son of Heaven no longer has the glory of the past, and his figure is so thin that a gust of wind seems to blow him down.Liu Hong, who was sitting by the couch, gently waved to his two sons, telling them to come over, and sat beside him on one left and one on the right.

Zhang Rang understood His Majesty's thoughts, and sent away all the eunuchs and maids serving in the palace. He also withdrew from the outside of the palace, and gently closed the palace door from the inside out.

The hall, which was already quiet, was even more quiet at this time, without the slightest sound.

cough cough ~ cough cough ~
A slight cough broke the silence, and the emperor in thin clothes covered his mouth and coughed non-stop.

Liu Bian had always been extremely afraid of Liu Hong, especially since the last time Liu Hong asked him to kill someone in the palace, he really didn't dare.Hearing Liu Hong's cough at this time, he felt uneasy and shrank back in fear.

On the other hand, Liu Xie, who was only six years old, was bold, kneeling on the couch, with a pair of small hands running from Liu Hong's back, from top to bottom, and asked with concern: "Father, is this better?" No?"

Filial piety is priceless.

Liu Hong was quite moved and felt relieved. After Liu Xie came down, he ordered again: "Go and open the window, I'm a little bored."

The commanded Liu Xie trotted over and pushed open the window.

The sunshine was just right, shining on the little boy, like an elf, carefree.

Liu Hong called his youngest son back and let him sit next to him again.Looking at the two sons, Liu Hong asked slowly: "Do you know why I asked you to come here?"

The two princes shook their heads at the same time.

"You are all my sons, so after I leave, your brothers will be responsible for the Han family's world." Liu Hong, who knew that his time was short, was sad and said slowly.

Liu Bian is already a teenager, so he naturally understands the meaning of the phrase 'after I leave'.Liu Xie didn't know, and asked curiously, "Father, where are you going?"

Looking at his youngest son's innocent expression, Liu Hong felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't tell Liu Xie clearly, but just changed the subject: "Today, I will teach you how to be a king."

Having been an emperor for 20 years, Liu Hong can also be said to have unique experience in the art of emperors. He is afraid that his son will not be able to defeat those ambitious people in the future and become a puppet in the hands of others, so he wants to vaccinate them in advance .

There are so many things in the world that rise and fall, and the Yangtze River flows endlessly.

Liu Hong started.

"The king is the lord of the world's subjects and all things. But he is the lord of the world's subjects and all things, and he has the most important responsibility. He should govern the world and ensure the safety of the society."

"You will be kings in the future, don't listen to the wind and rain, and be deceived by others. Those people who are full of self-proclaimed loyalty, the so-called pillars of the country, just read some high-level lectures and learned some rites. Talking about world affairs, Pointing to the country and the country, they would remonstrate with death at every turn. As everyone knows, they want to leave a name in history, but it is my country that is in chaos! They regard themselves as Bigan, but I am not the king of Zhou. Is he the only one in the world? Loyal ministers? Good ministers? Virtuous ministers?"

"The ancients said: the Yangtze River is the river, and the Zhuo River is the river.

The water of the Yangtze River is clear, but the water of the turbid river is turbid. As the Yangtze River flows, so does the turbid river.

When the sage comes out, the turbid river is clear.But when will the turbid river be cleared?
The water of the Yangtze River irrigated the fields of several counties and counties, and the water of the Zhuohe River also irrigated the fields of several counties and counties.It can only be used because of the clarity of the water, and it can only be used because of the turbidity of the water, which has been the case since ancient times. "

"People in the world don't understand this truth, and they have repeatedly advised me to use the Yangtze River instead of the Zhuohe River. How can I? Once the Zhuohe River floods, it must be dealt with. This is the reason why I depose Liu Shu and kill Wang Fu. Once the Yangtze River floods, I will Governance, this is the reason why I dismissed Duan Ying and killed Yang Qiu."

"The party members think of themselves as clear streams, and compare the king's father to a mountain. When the water submerges the mountain, it is flooding!"

"People's hearts are like water, and people's movement is like smoke. My Han Dynasty now has 4000 million people. God has handed over Kyushu and Wanfang to me. I am the son of heaven, and I am the father!"

"I authorized the handle and eunuchs to rule the world as slaves, and how many people called me a fool behind my back. I am not afraid of leaving a bad name, but I only want a great man, who will last forever. The slaves are fake tigers, and the relatives are jackals and beasts. The two cannot A family dominates and checks and balances each other, which is the way to be a king."

After the long speech, Liu Hong was a little out of breath. After adjusting his breathing, he finally concluded: "Is there any good or bad among the ministers in the world? The common people are divided into loyal and traitorous, while the emperor only sees the usefulness."

"Father, my son doesn't understand." The little prince's face was full of doubts.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, just remember it. One day in the future, you will naturally understand." Liu Hong caressed Liu Xie's forehead. common sense.

After explaining to the younger son, Liu Hong turned his attention to the elder son Liu Bian.

Although killing the eldest son of the emperor who has the highest voice for the crown prince can prevent future troubles forever, it is also the best way to ensure Liu Xie's accession to the throne.

But after all, tiger poison does not eat its offspring,
It is true that Liu Hong killed indiscriminately, but he would not do anything to his own son.He stared at Liu Bian for a while, and his tone became a little gentle: "Bian'er, are you willing to assist your younger brother and help him Jingyu the world?"

Liu Bian didn't think too much, turned his head to look at Liu Xie on the other side, he and this younger brother hadn't been together for long, but their relationship was extremely good, he nodded and replied: "I am willing."

As the eldest son of the emperor, Liu Bian has never had the idea of ​​sitting on the throne of God. It was his mother and uncle who insisted on pushing him to the position of prince.

After receiving Liu Bian's reply, Liu Hong breathed a sigh of relief. He folded the palms of the two brothers together, as if relieved: "The world from now on will be left to you."

The two princes nodded in response.

The father and son sat together from noon to dusk. When they parted, Liu Hong remembered something he hadn't explained, and called Liu Xie back who had already walked to the door.

"If there is a crisis in the future, you can call Lu Bu back. When the old Taiwei Yang Ci was alive, he once said that Lu Bu is a sharp weapon for the country. It is a divine sword that God gave me to open up the territory. Such a divine sword, Only those who are virtuous can hold on to them, I have little virtue, you are more benevolent than me, I leave it to you, in the future to suppress rebellion, crusade against rebels, or implement a new system, only this person can go forward and be invincible.”

After Liu Hong finished speaking, he handed over the emperor's saber that he carried all year round to Liu Xie, and his expression gradually turned grim: "It's best if you can suppress him, if you can't, kill him as soon as possible!"

If a minister overshadows the master, he is deceiving the emperor.
