Section 2 Charcoal in the snow
Hunched over, Liu De cautiously paced in front of the corpse in the middle of the main hall.
Countless familiar faces from previous lives appeared in front of Liu De's eyes one by one.
Kneeling in front of the spirit of the first is still the young and strong cheap father, when today's son Liu Qi, on the left side of the Son of Heaven, kneeling side by side is the Empress Dowager Dou, behind these two, side by side kneeling Liang King Liu Wu, Bo Family, Dou's relatives, and then the Son of Heaven concubines and princes and kings from all over the country.
Seeing Liu De coming, several puzzled eyes were directly projected onto him.
"What are you going to do?" Liu De's cheap mother Su Ji saw Liu De suddenly appear, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she hurriedly pulled Liu De's sleeve, lowered her voice and reprimanded: "Quickly retreat outside and kneel!" ”
Liu De glanced at Su Ji, at this time, Su Ji has gradually faded, purely from a man's point of view, her figure has been out of shape, and the corners of her forehead have begun to wrinkle, after all, she is already in her thirties, even with the cosmetics and makeup technology of the 21st century, it is difficult to hide the traces brought by the years.
Smart people such as Liu Yu's biological mother Wang Huan, after realizing that her youth was no longer there, decisively dedicated her sister to the emperor's father, which not only pleased the emperor's father, but also had an ally in **.
But what about Su Ji......
But it is still stuck in the time of nineteen years ago......
Looking at Su Ji, Liu De sighed in his heart, some people themselves are already hopeless.
I apologized in my heart.
Then, Liu De decisively knelt down and bowed: "The unfilial son Liu De greets his father, grandmother and uncles of the clan!" ”
After speaking, Liu De pressed his forehead tightly to the ground, waiting for his cheap dad to speak.
Liu De's words were not loud, but they were very penetrating, and most importantly, there was no hesitation and stage fright.
This made many princes and kings stay on Liu De's body for a while.
Today, the Son has not yet established a prince, therefore, in a broad sense, the Son of Heaven currently has ten sons under his knees, and everyone has a chance.
Liu De's sudden appearance made many people begin to care.
This is not because Liu De has the spirit of a king, and when the tiger's body is shaken, people know that he is the true son of the dragon.
It's this branch of Liu De's family, which doesn't have a very good reputation in the Liu clan.
At the beginning, when Liu De's cheap father was still the prince, he stoned Prince Wu to death on a chessboard on the streets of Chang'an.
What's even more tragic is that the death of Prince Wu has not been given a result by the imperial court......
As the saying goes, where there is a father, there is a son.
If one day you meet a prince on the street, and then you are stoned to death by the prince on a chessboard because you don't open your eyes, how unjust should it be?
As long as you think of this past, the princes and kings will naturally be concerned in their hearts, anyway, it will not be a bad thing to remember the appearance, personality, and preferences of each prince.
One thing that must be admitted is that the genetic optimization project of the old Liu family is really good, basically, the princes are not bad in appearance.
More than 100 years later, Ban Gu said in the Hanshu: The aunt of the minister is the first to be Jieyu, the father and son are the servants of the younger brother, and the number is the minister's words: Emperor Cheng is good at cultivating his appearance, and he is standing upright, not looking inward, not speaking, not pointing at himself, and he is in the court, and his dignity is like a god, which can be described as the face of Mu Mu Tianzi!
Even Emperor Cheng, who was hollowed out by wine, was praised for having the appearance of Mu Mutianzi.
Liu De, who has just passed his fifteenth birthday, is naturally not far behind.
Although he is less than one meter six tall, he has a clear silhouette, a slender figure, and a good temperament, kneeling on the ground, like a sculpture.
"What?" After a while, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, who had been silent, finally asked.
"When the son heard that the queen mother had fainted, he was worried about this, so he dared to ask his father for permission to make the son go to visit him in order to fulfill his filial piety!" Liu De said softly.
But as soon as he said this, it was no less than dropping a bombshell in this palace.
Liu De's mother is naturally not his cheap mother Su Ji.
According to the system, there is only one person who can be called the queen mother by the prince on official occasions, and that is Queen Bo, the queen of the dynasty.
Only the queen who is in charge of the world is theoretically the common mother of all princes.
However, that is only theoretical.
In fact, almost all the world knows that the Empress Bo did not please the Son of Heaven, and the reason why Bo's queen position was stable was due to her grandmother, the Empress Dowager, and now, the old lady has passed away, and Bo's position as the queen immediately began to crumble.
No one can understand Liu De's actions at this time.
However, several princes of Bo's relatives cast grateful glances at Liu De.
Everyone knows that it is easy to put the icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.
When the old lady was there, the Bo family was naturally a relative of the Han family, and even the Son of Heaven had to be polite or two, but as soon as the old lady left, the whole world changed overnight, so that the Bo family fully knew what it meant to be warm and cold in the world.
At this time, Liu De remembered to visit Queen Bo, which naturally moved the Bo family greatly.
As soon as the Bo family is happy, some people are naturally unhappy.
Su Ji's face turned blue almost instantly, and the faces of several elders of the Dou clan were not very good-looking, but the old queen mother knelt quietly in front of the corpse as if nothing had happened, as if she had nothing to do with her.
"This is the right reason, the right ......" the Son of Heaven above said this sentence indifferently, and then turned around and continued to kneel down facing the Lingshu, for him, even if he didn't like the queen, but on top of this national mourning, the necessary face must be maintained, just before the queen fainted, but no prince stood up to say it, which made his face a little unbearable.
Those who are familiar with the inside story know that at the beginning, the son that Emperor Xiaowen loved and liked the most was actually not him at all, but the late Liu Yi, the king of Liang Huai.
Before Liu Yi fell from his horse and died, his position as the crown prince was not stable at all, if it weren't for the then crown princess and the current queen Bo Shi maneuvering in front of the empress dowager many times, he would not have survived the day Liu Yi died.
Therefore, Liu Qi was naturally very happy that Liu De could come out to save the scene, but as the Son of Heaven, he couldn't come out.
"No!" Liu De bowed deeply, only he knew that this was the first step on his road to self-salvation: "Erchen obeys his father's orders!" ”
Then, Liu De turned around and explained softly to Su Ji: "Mother, please forgive my son for making his own decisions......"
Su Ji lowered her head, her face was blue, and she refused to talk.
Liu De was already prepared in his heart.
If you want to embark on the road to winning the heir, you have to give up something, and in fact, he and Su Ji do not have a deep relationship except for blood ties, so there is no so-called guilt in his heart.
He lowered his head, looked at Su Ji's appearance, and said softly: "Mother, my Han family rules the world with filial piety, and is born as a son, and my son has to lead by example......"
Although Liu De's voice was small, he could still be heard by several concubines next to him.
The generous may laugh at it, but the cautious ones immediately grit their teeth with hatred.
"What do you mean?" Liu De heard clearly, this was the voice of Liu Yu's mother, Wang Huan.
But Liu De ignored it, turned around and hunched over, and walked towards the inner sanctum.
