"King Jiangdu and King Meng, they really took the guards to block Huainan" Liu Che put down the pen in his hand and looked at Dou Pengzu and Liu Jing who were kneeling in front of him with extremely ugly faces.
"It's a true thing to return to Your Majesty" Dou Pengzu was about to cry, prostrate on the ground, and didn't even dare to move.
Liu Jing had even more cramps in his legs and stomach, and he cried and bowed with a sad face: "Your Majesty, make a decision quickly."
"Drama Meng" Liu Che turned his head to the horse commander standing behind him and ordered: "King Huainan is there now" "Back to Your Majesty, according to the report of Yousi, Huayin has passed," Ji Meng replied with a bowed head, and at the same time, his hand was already on the scabbard and ready to be ordered at any time.
"Then please trouble Aiqing to take someone to take a trip, be sure to stop Huainan's car and bring it directly to Chang'an" Liu Che instructed lightly: "Over there in Deyang Temple, Huainan will not go to Hajj" When Ju Meng heard this, he immediately went out to bow down, and then walked out of the main hall with people.
Dou Pengzu and Liu Jing knelt on the ground and looked at each other, both of them seeing fear and shock in each other's eyes.
Since the death of Emperor Taishang, in the history of the Han Dynasty, there has never been an example of princes and kings returning to Beijing instead of facing the ancestral temple.
And the Son of Heaven's decision now is almost equivalent to telling the world that the king of Huainan is not filial and must not go to the temple of the first emperor, so as not to blaspheme the ancestral gods.
The lethality of such silent accusations is enormous.
Accusations of this magnitude would almost immediately sever all ties between Liu Rong, the king of Huainan, and the first emperor.
How can an unfilial son be qualified to continue to inherit his father's power, and how can he have the face to continue to enjoy the protection of his father's gods Dou Pengzu and Liu Jing's hearts were clear that once Ju Meng walked out of this hall, he prevented King Huainan from going to Deyang Temple.
Then, it is equivalent to expelling King Huainan from the sequence of the heirs of the first emperor at the level of morality and etiquette.
But neither of them did anything.
Because What does Liu Rong's life and death have to do with them?
Even, deep in their hearts, maybe they wish Liu Rong would die quickly.
Because, the existence of the eldest son of the former emperor has now become a troublemaker recognized by the government and the opposition.
He is unscrupulous, he breaks the law, he is disobedient, unfilial, and corrupts morality His very existence is a threat to the lives of Liu Jing and Dou Pengzu.
Once this lord pokes out some big basket, the first person to carry the blame is not the two ministers who are responsible for the management of the clan and the etiquette system, who else can be Therefore, Liu Rong hurried to die, which was the inner consensus of these two Han family Jiuqing.
It's just that they don't dare to say it.
"Two Aiqing, let's go get busy first" Liu Che stood up and said, "I have to go to the East Palace once and report this matter to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager."
"Nuo" Dou Pengzu and Liu Jing hurriedly bowed.
The corners of Liu Che's mouth smiled slightly, and in his heart, he was simply happy.
Everything was as planned.
In the past year, under the propaganda of Liu Fei's big mouth, Liu Rong's actions have been almost spread all over the world.
And the various jokes and stories of Liu Rong's nonsense created and rendered by the embroidered guards are well known to the market.
By now, Liu Rong has become an outcast in the world.
A troublemaker in the eyes of courtiers, a tyrant in the eyes of public opinion, and an unfilial son in the eyes of the people.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
Now, it's time to peel off that protective umbrella from Liu Rong's body.
The eldest son of the first emperor After today, he will no longer be the eldest son of the first emperor in the eyes of the world.
He will only be an unfilial son, a faint king and tyrant who has been betrayed by everyone, despised by his brothers, abandoned by his courtiers, and spurned by all the people.
His historical positioning will only be Uncle Guan and Uncle Cai.
Of course, the play must be performed sufficiently, at least not so that people can see through it at a glance.
It must be a matter of stubbornness, and I have to tear my eyes.
When Liu Che came to the Yongshou Hall of Changle Palace, the two old ladies were already waiting for him.
"Emperor, what's the matter" The Empress Dowager Dou Shi first asked: "The mourning family heard that the king of Jiangdu, the king of Meng, the king of Lu, the king of Zhao and others went to Yangling with their guards to block the Deyang Temple of the Huainan Dynasty."
Empress Dowager Bo also looked worried, and said: "What the queen mother said is very true, the mourning family heard the news, and they were also very shocked that the king of Jiangdu, the king of Meng, the king of Lu, and the king of Zhao, what is going on The mourning family is worried, the gods of the first emperor are disturbed, and the ancestors are angry."
For the two queen mothers, now, their world is only about themselves and their own historical positioning.
The two queen mothers naturally want to leave a reputation as a virtuous queen in history and be admired by all generations.
As it turns out, this seems to be an easy achievable goal.
They only need to learn from the late Empress Dowager, recuperate in the palace, and fame and praise will automatically come to them.
But now, this kind of thing happened suddenly, or before the New Year's court meeting, in front of the officials of the county and the country of the world, as well as the princes and ministers of the heavens, and the envoys of the subject countries, the old Liu family suddenly played a brotherly and fratricidal drama.
The two queen mothers were naturally very shocked and angry.
Liu Che's face was embarrassed, he bowed for a long time, and said: "Grandmother and Queen Mother, please calm down the anger I have already sent the concubine Duwei Ju Meng to adjust, there shouldn't be any big mess."
Well, Ju Meng will soon bring Liu Rong to the East Palace Yongshou Palace, and when the time comes, it will be a grand criticism meeting.

The kings and brothers, and even the side branches of the clan, the princes of the clan, and the ministers of the foreign relatives, will definitely expose all of Liu Rong's past actions in front of the two queen mothers.
When the time comes However, before that, Liu Che had to continue to do his duty as a younger brother in front of the two queen mothers.
What a character Empress Dowager Dou is In the past few years, although she has given up power, she has been a strong woman who has held great power and experienced countless bloodshed, conspiracy and tricks, and evaded countless open guns and arrows.
Therefore, as soon as she heard Liu Che's words, she heard that something was wrong.
"Emperor, you tell the mourning family the truth, what happened" Although the old lady's eyes were almost blind, her heart was very open.
For no reason, the brothers King Jiangdu, King Lu, King Zhao, and King Meng suddenly disrecognized Huainan as a brother Especially Liu Yan, the king of Jiangdu, and the Son of Heaven are both brothers of Huainan In the Han family, if there is no great change between brothers or sisters of the same birth, otherwise, at the very least, there will be a harmonious atmosphere on the surface.
Let's take Dou as an example, Dou Ying has stabbed so many baskets over the years, but Dou Pengzu and others, who despised him, who discriminated against him, who suppressed him No The concept of family comes first in Chinese society.
There is no need for Confucianism to remind you, thousands of years ago, the Book of Poetry said: Brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted by the outside.
In China, the power of the family is carried out from top to bottom.
Even the law acknowledges this.
Otherwise, there would be no punishment for the criminal's family at every turn, and even the punishment of the three clans.
Therefore, the matter that can make a group of princes and kings tear their faces is definitely not trivial, and it is even likely to be related to a higher morality than brotherhood.
Then, it is obvious that King Huainan has probably done some bastard things that are unacceptable to these princes and kings over the years Liu Che looked at Empress Dowager Dou and Empress Dowager Bo, but he just bit his lip and refused to say anything.
I can't let him talk about this matter.
What he says, there will be a lot of problems.
First of all, it is impossible to maintain the image of a good brother who protects his brother, and it is easier to make the world suspicious.
Said to protect the brother, turned around and sold You premeditated, right?
It's not a joke, it's a story.
Back then, this was the case with King Li of Huainan, just at the beginning, Yuan Ang saw the clues, and before it was finished, the gossip party spread the inside story all over Chang'an.
Later, even folk songs came out The emperor refused to say Empress Dowager Dou and Empress Dowager Bo were naturally not stupid, they immediately knew that something must have happened, which led to the deterioration of the relationship between King Huainan and the kings, and now, even to the point that the kings would rather make a fool of themselves in front of the people of the world than recognize Huainan, and even did not allow him to go to the Hajj to the first emperor.
"Li Xin" Empress Dowager Dou asked loudly a eunuch standing in the palace, this person who was close to the Empress Bo in the past has now become the Great Changqiu of Changle Palace, and is the highest-ranking eunuch in the palace today: "You tell the mourning family, what happened?"
"Returning to the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager" Li Xin hurriedly knelt down and reported: "The slave and maid vaguely heard that it was said that it was the year before last, the king of Huainan was very unfilial, and invaded the land of the temple of the first emperor Renzong, and he did not want to repent, and often complained about the first emperor in private.
"Such a big thing, why no one reported it to the mourning family" Empress Dowager Dou was immediately furious.
She was angry at these bastard things done by Liu Rong, the king of Huainan.
The son rebels against the father for the sake of unfilial piety, and in ordinary people's homes, it is enough for the brothers to beat him to death In the royal family, if something like this happens, it must be a big deal.
As the head of the Liu clan now, she has never even heard of the rumors this Empress Dowager Dou deeply felt terrible.
Liu Che hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Imperial grandmother, queen mother, please calm your anger, this is all the grandson's idea, the grandson thinks that no one should disturb the peace of the imperial grandmother and the queen mother, and the grandson also thinks that the grandson can handle this matter himself."
"It can be handled" Empress Dowager Dou's face turned blue: "How could it become the current situation" Empress Dowager Bo hurriedly extinguished the fire, supported her mother-in-law's body, and comforted: "The emperor is young after all, if you don't know the importance of the mother, don't worry about these things for the emperor, it's a top priority, we still have to solve this matter first, and we can't let the world see jokes."
Ordinary people know that family ugliness should not be publicized, let alone the royal family Empress Dowager Dou barely suppressed her anger and ordered: "Immediately summon Zongzheng and Taichang to come to see the mourning family."
"Send someone to invite the prime minister, the court captain and the imperial historian to come to the East Palace to wait for the edict" As the master of the East Palace, although the Empress Dowager Dou has been away from power for many years, she once controlled the ownership authority of this empire, so she immediately gave the order very clearly.
Liu Che, who was kneeling on the ground, watched all this with cold eyes.
For him, disposing of Liu Rong this time is just one of the purposes.
By the way, the second purpose is to investigate whether Donggong still has any ambitions, or whether Donggong wants to take advantage of this opportunity to reappear.
Now it seems that Empress Dowager Bo is almost certainly unwilling to get involved in politics.
But Empress Dowager Dou Liu Che felt that as long as she had the opportunity, she would probably be unable to help but regain control and access to power.
After all, she used to be in power, and it was normal to have this kind of thought.
However, this is unacceptable to Liu Che.
Have you ever seen a ruler who has a monopoly on power and will let people dilute their authority?
No From ancient times to the present, there has never been such a person.
Power is poison, and once it is contaminated, it will become addictive.
"It's time to let Donggong know whose world is now," Liu Che sneered in his heart.
The entire hall was silent, and in just a few seconds after Empress Dowager Dou gave the order, not even a single person dared to move.
This is the current state of Han politics today.
Liu Che has the power alone, and he is the only one.
Even within the East Palace, his status is transcendent.

Where he was, without his orders, not even a single eunuch would dare to act rashly.
Everyone knows that in this country, whoever is the master is the supreme "What are you doing in a daze" Liu Che was proud in his heart, but he scolded him: "Don't hurry up and respect Yizhi" Only then did the eunuchs and attendants rush to take the order.
Empress Dowager Dou didn't seem to know about it, as if she didn't see it, so she didn't find it, or she pretended not to know.
But it doesn't matter.
Liu Che was satisfied, and it turned out that even if Donggong wanted to jump out and take power, no one would listen to the order.
Therefore, Liu Che can temporarily cede power to the East Palace to a great extent.
"The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings", Prime Minister Zhou Yafu took the pen and wrote this line on a scroll.
His eyes kept looking in the direction of Yangling.
The matter is so big, Zhou Yafu naturally knew about it a long time ago.
In fact, now the whole of Chang'an is paying attention to this matter.
The big news of the old Liu family may not be encountered once in a lifetime, whether it is a common person or an aristocrat, it is a gossip party at the moment, and everyone is concentrating on the progress of things with an extremely entertaining mentality.
For the general public, the secrets of the royal family are always the most eye-catching.
But for Zhou Yafu, this is a troublesome matter.
He will soon retire with the title of prime minister, the most successful prime minister since the founding of the Han dynasty.
His historical positioning will also be brilliant.
But at this time, such a thing happened, which was equivalent to adding a stain to his brilliance What's even more troublesome is that nine times out of ten, he has to wipe his ass for this matter.
It's all something you don't need to think about.
It is impossible for the Son of Heaven to come forward directly, and the East Palace is probably unwilling to take the pot.
Apart from him, the prime minister, who else can take this pot At this time, a subordinate came in to report: "Jun Hou, the Empress Dowager of the East Palace, please wait for the palace to discuss matters" "It's time to come," Zhou Yafu put down his pen, shook his head and sighed. t1706231537:
