vs 17 The Son of Heaven, who is furious
It took about a quarter of an hour for Liu De to be led by Li Xin to Empress Bo's bedroom.
In the past, when the Empress Dowager was still alive, it was crowded with traffic and crowds all year round.
But at this point it was extremely deserted.
Except for the occasional patrolling guard and the eunuch who was in charge of cleaning the palace, few people could be seen.
Walking into the hall, there were very few maids in the hall, and there were only three or five of them standing.
Empress Bo was dressed in filial piety clothes and sat on the floor, and a man about forty or fifty years old knelt in front of her, as if to say something, and only when she saw Liu De coming in, the two stopped talking.
"The son has seen the queen mother!" Liu De knelt down to say hello.
"Hurry up!" When Empress Bo saw Liu De, her face suddenly turned a little bloody, and she instructed the maid: "Go and prepare a seat for Your Highness!" ”
"No need!" Liu De stood up and said as he walked: "The son wants to talk to the queen mother!" When he approached Queen Bo's side, Liu De found out that the man was Queen Bo's brother Bo Rongnu.
Bo's relatives have always been thin.
The Empress Dowager had only one younger brother, and that was the late Bo Zhao.
Bo Zhao gave birth to three sons and a daughter.
Among them, the eldest son and the youngest son both died young, only the second son survived and inherited the orange Hou, that is, Bo Rongnu, and the young daughter is now Queen Bo.
Seeing Bo Rongnu, Liu De also saluted: "I've seen my uncle!" ”
"Good boy, get up!" Bo Rongnu smiled and helped Liu De up, and looked carefully. "The old minister doesn't deserve this gift from His Royal Highness!"
Bo's relatives actually had very little weight in the political arena of the Han family, except for his father Bo Zhao, who had become an official and a general of the chariot cavalry, no one became an official.
Therefore, as soon as the Empress Dowager died, the Bo family immediately panicked.
They have no one and no power in the DPRK, and now they have lost their biggest backer, what will happen in the future, they really have no bottom in their hearts.
Therefore, when Queen Bo had the idea of succession, Bo Rongnu was the happiest one among them.
If he can succeed a son to the name of Queen Bo, even if he will not be able to compete for the position of prince in the future, at least, he can ensure that the Bo family will be prosperous and rich for another 30 years.
The more Bo Rongnu looked at Liu De, the more he liked it.
took Liu De's hand and sat down, shushing the cold and asking for warmth.
Queen Bo on the side was also smiling, chatting with Liu De about some homely things.
After a while, Queen Bo seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, "I heard Da Changqiu say that my son just cried?" What the hell is going on, tell me about it, and I may be able to help my son solve a problem or two! ”
Liu De bowed his head and said: "It's just that there are some conflicts with the concubine......"
Saying that, Liu De told Liu Rong about his duty and asked him to hand over the edict given by the Son of Heaven, as well as Su Ji's attitude and what happened before and after.
"This Su Ji is too partial...... Queen Bo frowned after hearing this, and said, "I will definitely talk about her well when I find an opportunity......"
"Still don't want it!" Liu De hurriedly said: "The temperament of the son and the mother, you don't know the queen mother......
"It's hard for you!" Queen Bo sighed with emotion: "Su Ji is really in the blessing and doesn't know the blessing, if I have an obedient and filial child like Liu De, I will die tomorrow, and I won't feel sorry......"
As he spoke, he remembered the pain in his heart, and began to sobble again.
Liu De also cooperated and immediately knelt down and said: "Don't cry after the queen mother, if the queen mother is willing, you will treat Liu De as your own son in the future!" ”
"Seriously!?" Queen Bo raised her head and looked at Liu De in surprise, she thought that it would take at least another ten days and half a month of communication before she had the opportunity to mention this matter to Liu De, but she didn't expect that she was not ready, and Liu De had already spoken first.
"Seriously!" Liu De knelt down and said: "My son doesn't know why, every time I see the queen mother, my heart is very kind, therefore, if the queen mother is willing, I will treat Liu De as my own son in the future, and my son will be filial to you in the future!" ”
In this remark, Liu De is not coaxing Queen Bo.
In his previous life, after Liu De came out of the small black house, he always wanted to repay the other party's kindness, but unfortunately, as a prince who was divided out, where did he have the ability to repay? If he could in this life, Liu De wouldn't mind doing something for Queen Bo.
"Good boy!" Queen Bo hugged Liu De excitedly and cried.
It's just that both of them know that it is impossible to succeed in the royal family like ordinary people, as long as the two parties agree, they still need the endorsement of the Son of Heaven and the approval of the Queen Mother.
Both of these steps are extremely difficult.
Fortunately, now that the Empress Dowager has just died, there is still some incense, if it is a year and a half late, it can be said that there is no chance of success in this matter.
………………………………………………………………
Qingliang Hall is the summer office of the Son of Heaven in Weiyang Palace.
Because it is a period of national mourning, the arrangement is simple.
At this moment, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, is looking at the recital that Liu De presented to him yesterday, this is not the first time he has seen it, but he still feels that how comfortable it is.
What Song Shu wrote, although it is still inseparable from what Liu De said at the family banquet yesterday.
But the style and penmanship made Liu Qi very comfortable to watch.
It's no secret that Liu Qi likes Legalism.
However, among the many princes, there are not many things written by those who have become adults or are about to become adults who can temper him.
Like what Liu Rong wrote, he felt very unhappy, too timid, copying things over and over again, is it interesting?
Liu De used to write things that were very good-looking, and the writing was good, but the whole article was Confucianism, which was not interesting!
Liu Yan, Liu Yu, Liu Fei.
One is too mediocre, the other stutters, and the rest is full of wars.
This disappointed him a little.
But now Liu De's changes make him appreciate it very much.
It's just that......
Putting down Liu De's note and picking up another note that had just been presented next to him, Liu Qi felt a little headache.
It was written by mistake.
Liu De's remarks last night couldn't be concealed at all, so there were already ministers discussing it at today's court meeting.
Prime Minister Shen Tujia even praised Liu De's method of becoming a country, which is actually the best way to deal with it today.
It is not a matter of one or two days that Shen Tujia, the prime minister, is unhappy when he sees Chao wrong.
It's been a long, long time.
As soon as Shen Tujia came out, Yuan Ang also echoed.
As soon as these two people came out, Chao Cuo couldn't sit still, so he gave such a note.
"The arrow is on the bow, I have to send it!" Liu Qi rubbed his somewhat aching temples and sighed with emotion, he knew that when the plan to cut the feudal domain was carried out so far, it would not be able to stop at all.
The border troops under the command of Cheng Buzhi and Li Guang were already hoarding grain and grass and manufacturing ordnance according to orders.
Zhou Yafu's army is also preparing.
The money and food of the arsenal are constantly being allocated, and if this is stopped, all the early efforts will be wasted.
This loss, even if he is the Son of Heaven, feels unbearable.
However, he couldn't disrespect the opinions of Shen Tujia and Yuan An.
Shen Tujia is the prime minister, the elder of the Five Dynasties, and even the first emperor is very respectful.
Yuan Ang is highly qualified, has served as the prime minister of the two princes of Wu and Chu, and is an expert on Wu and Chu issues in the imperial court.
Thinking of this, Liu Qi felt a little upset.
So he asked the eunuchs beside him: "Chengwu, is there anything interesting in Chang'an or the palace recently?" ”
A fair-looking eunuch immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, nothing has happened in Chang'an recently, but two things have happened in the palace, and the slaves and maids don't know whether to say it or not......"
"Tell me about it......" Liu Qi waved his hand.
"This is the first thing, the slave maid heard that Concubine Su lost her temper again today, and broke a lot of things in the palace, and she hasn't lost her anger yet!" The eunuch said with a smile.
"What happened to Su Ji?" Liu Qi's face was not good-looking when he heard it.
In fact, he has feelings for Su Ji, after all, this is the first woman he has really felt sorry for.
It's just that......
No matter how deep the feelings are, they can't stop Su Ji from losing her temper for three days, especially, sometimes even he, the son of heaven, has to be made pale!
"I heard that Concubine Su wanted the prince Liu De to transfer the decree given by His Majesty to Liu Rong, but His Royal Highness Liu De was unwilling, so Concubine Su was angry...... "The eunuch also saw that Su Ji was unhappy, so he took the opportunity to take some eye medicine and said: "The slave maid heard that His Royal Highness Liu De was sad for a long time in the garden in the Weiyang Palace after going out, and finally it was Queen Bo's Da Changqiu who comforted her!" ”
"Nonsense!" Liu Qi suddenly became angry: "What I give, Su Ji dares to rob?" ”
"This Liu Rong is too unsuccessful!" Liu Qi took Liu De's song and said, as the so-called people are more popular than people, thinking that Liu De first dared to come out to visit the Bo family, and then came out to help him solve the King of Qi, and then looked at Liu Rong, Liu Qi couldn't help but have a bad feeling for Liu Rong in his heart.
"And what's the second thing?" Liu Qi asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, this second thing is that there have been some rumors in the palace recently, and the slaves and maids don't know whether to say it or not......" The eunuch said with some hesitation.
"Say it!"
"No!" The eunuch said: "That's the case, recently the slave maid heard that some subordinates in the palace were chewing their tongues, and there were quite some rebellious words...... They said...... "The eunuch bowed his head and said in a resigned manner: "They say that Wang Meiren dreamed of Emperor Gao when she gave birth to the emperor's tenth son......"
Liu Qi's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"The slave maid also heard that some people talked about that Wang Meiren had another dream before she was pregnant with the emperor's ten sons, and it was said that she dreamed that a sun fell into Wang Meiren's arms, and after waking up, Wang Meiren found out that she was pregnant!" The eunuch added fuel to the fire again.
"Bastard!" Liu Qi waved his sleeves, swept all the bamboo slips on the desk to the ground, and said angrily: "Go, call them all over!" ”
"Your Majesty is angry!" The eunuch was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground.
"Dare to ask who is your majesty?" Another eunuch asked.
"All!" Liu Qi was furious, feeling that his hair was about to be blown up: "Wang Meiren, Su Ji, Liu Rong, Liu De, and Queen Bo and Empress Dowager Dou are also invited over!" ”
