The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1053 A Story Not in the History Books
"I saw this by accident. I don't know if it's right, but it can give you some inspiration. His status is similar to yours."

What Hou Hou thought in his heart was that this story was not important, but who was involved and what was done, which Zhao Xu could use in the future.

"Oh, it can also give me some inspiration. How can this small drum inspire me? Isn't it for the sake of the people? Is there anything else?"

Zhao Xu didn't understand what story Hou Hou was telling, and that it could have something to do with himself, which he didn't know at all.

"You will understand when I finish speaking. This has absolutely something to do with you. You will know after listening."

Zhao Xu didn't say anything else, and then quietly listened to Houhou explain how the grievance drum came about.

"It is said that the origin of the grievance drum is related to Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty, so I tell you that it has something to do with you, because you will also take this step in the future."

According to legend, Liu, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty, defeated Xiang Yu to rule the world and created the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

He was originally a hooligan, and his family members were not good people. Now that he became the emperor, those people suddenly became relatives of the emperor.

As the saying goes, one person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, and now that Liu Bang has become the emperor, those relatives have all become relatives of the emperor at once.

They also became frightened when they became relatives of the emperor. It is understandable when you think about it. A poor man owns hundreds of millions of property, so the mood is naturally different.

It doesn't mean that he has a nephew who is such a person. Now that his second uncle has become the emperor, he also has a title and is superior to others.

In the past, I was always looked down upon by others, but now who dares to look down on me, that is really impatient.

Because he started his career in the yamen, bullying others all day long, no one dared to control him.

Tired of playing the whole person's game, he started playing other games again. On this day, he came to the streets of Chang'an.

There is a beautiful girl named Su Xiao'e in Chang'an. Although she can't be regarded as the number one beauty in Chang'an, her beauty is also very amazing.

This guy happened to meet Su Xiao'e, and seeing that Xiao'e was as beautiful as a fairy, he had evil thoughts and stepped forward to tease her.

Generally, there is only one end for flirting with beauties, and that is to slap the beauties.

There was only a "slap", and Liu Bang's nephew was slapped, and his face felt hot.

Ever since Liu Bang became emperor, no one but his own parents dared to beat him like this, and now a little girl dared to beat him like this, and she couldn't help cursing angrily:
"You ignorant whore, I want you to die here!"

After speaking, he grabbed the eyebrow-level stick from the attendant's hand and threw it down on Xiao'e's head with all his strength.Just hearing the sound of "Boom", everyone thought that this woman would die.

Everyone took a closer look and found that the stick did not fall on Su Xiaoe's head but was stopped by someone, but at this time Liu Bang's nephew was in a bad mood.

Because where he stood was a pool of blood.There is a sword stuck in the belly, and the person holding the sword is a big man.

This man saw Liu Bang's nephew committing a crime in the street, and was about to attack a weak woman, without even thinking about it, he directly blocked the falling wooden stick with his sword.

However, Liu Bang's nephew used all his strength to hit the stick, so the big man's hand couldn't help shaking, and the sword went straight into his stomach.

He died on the spot without any reaction. When his follower saw that it was broken, he yelled directly.

Officers and soldiers were quickly attracted. In order to evade responsibility, these few followers put all the blame on the big man who acted out of righteousness.

When these people heard that they were relatives of the emperor, Chang'an Ling directly reported the matter to Liu Bang.

When Liu Bang heard this, it was okay. He was bullied before, but now that he is the emperor, it is really unreasonable for someone to dare to bully his family.

When Liu Bang got angry, he directly put the big man in prison, sentenced him to death, and executed him after autumn.

This is the emperor's prerogative. No one dares to object to what he says. It is doomed that this person who wants to become a prostitute will lose his life.

No wonder there are many people who are unwilling to do good deeds now, because after doing good deeds, it is very likely that they will get burned, which is really not worth it for a person.

Besides, Su Xiao'e didn't have anything to do with her after your Liu Bang's nephew died, and she also returned home.

But she has been paying attention to this, the big man who saved her, who let him save him! ~
When she learned that that person was about to be executed, she felt very guilty. This person was taken away to save herself.

So she wanted to save him, only the emperor can forgive his sins, but a woman can't see the emperor at all.

So she thought of a way.One day, Xiao'e and her younger sister each held a small drum and a small gong, and crossed the street to beat the gate of the Golden Palace.
"Injustice!"

This trick really worked. The sound of gongs and drums alarmed Liu Bang, and he ordered the client to be taken to the hall for questioning.

It was not a trivial matter that alarmed the emperor, so Su Xiao'e was quickly brought into the hall.

Su Xiao'e had a plan in mind, and when she saw the emperor, she calmly replied:

"Long live, if the women of the people don't beat the gongs and drums, how can they face the king, and how can I avenge my grievances?"

Then he reported Liu Bang's nephew's misdeeds and entourage's evil deeds one by one.Then he said earnestly:

"Long live you don't want to kill heroes. It's a small matter for a girl to be wronged, but a big matter for the court's reputation!"

After listening to Liu Bang, he felt that the words were reasonable, so he brought up the "prisoner" and confronted the entourage of the emperor's nephew.

Liu Bang was very indignant and shouted sharply:
"Little slave, following the prince and not persuading him to go the right way, even ruining his life and framing others. I personally tried the case today, and only then did I know the truth, and I almost killed the hero by mistake. Someone, pull this little slave out and behead him!"

Then that Chang'an Ling was also killed, and he did not report to the educated youth, and Liu Bang hated such a person.

Later, both Su Xiaoe and the big man were acquitted. This incident had a wide impact at the time.

Su Xiao'e's act of beating the drum to complain of grievances gave Liu Bang an inspiration. In order to facilitate the people to sue, he issued an imperial decree, ordering that a drum and a bell must be set up at the gates of government offices at all levels, and stipulated that when the bell and drum sounded, the officials must go to court to show Convenience for the people and good governance.In this way, the system of drumming and complaining.

"How about this story? Isn't it a good story? You think it's accidental that Liu Bang, a rascal, became emperor. Have you seen that he can get such an inspiration from a trivial matter and form a complaint, which shows that his success is not accidental."

"You will have to do this when you become emperor in the future."

Hou Hou wanted to inspire Zhao Kuangyin with this matter. As an emperor, he must always consider the people. Only in this way can the country last forever.

This story is likely to be fabricated, because Liu Bang's nephew does not even have a name, which means that it is likely to be fabricated later.

If it is really a matter, then such a big event will be recorded by historians.

Whether it's true or not, this matter can be a great inspiration to the ruler, Zhao Xu thought so.
