Han Shizu

Chapter 1754
"You go, I'm sleepy, I need to go to sleep!" After talking too much, Emperor Liu was a little tired, and he waved his hand to Liu Yang, and slowly went back to Chongzheng Hall.

Liu Yang was behind, bowing down respectfully to salute, but when he looked up, he looked at Emperor Liu's obviously hunched back, with a little doubt on his face.Just now, when Emperor Liu mentioned An Dong, he was obviously hesitant to speak, what exactly did he want to say?Liu Yang thought about it secretly, but no matter what it was, it was obviously related to Liu Xu.

While returning to the palace, Emperor Liu also had a melancholy expression, his brows were knit together, protruding a tangle.He originally wanted to ask, to separate the Andong area, give it to Liu Xu, and establish the Andong country. This idea has been circling in his mind for a long time, and he wanted to ask Liu Yang's thoughts on this.

But when the words reached his throat, he restrained himself, because he himself had doubts about this matter.Although Anton is remote and bitterly cold, under the basic policy of northeast development, as an important part of the entire northeast frontier defense, Anton becomes independent, which will inevitably form a split with the imperial court.

Moreover, this also belongs to the continental plate. Emperor Liu's grand unification complex is also deep. If it is just to facilitate Anton's governance and save the burden on the court, he will start such a start. What are the pros and cons? Emperor Liu himself is somewhat uncertain .

Emperor Liu has always had the idea of ​​enfeoffment, but he is also hesitant whether to cut these corners in the mainland.Today's Anton, under Emperor Liu's decentralization of power, Liu Xu has made drastic moves and managed well, showing signs of a country within a country.

However, the influence of the imperial court on the local area is still huge. Anton is limited by his congenital deficiencies, and his dependence on the imperial court is also huge.Coupled with the local rotation of soldiers and generals, supplemented by Liaodong, the control is still very strong.

Although this inevitably increased the burden on the court, the basic balance was achieved.Emperor Liu was also not sure whether such a balance should be broken, what impact it would have, and what consequences would it have.

Of course, more importantly, Emperor Liu has to take into account Liu Yang's thoughts. On the one hand, he wants to give Liu Xu a basic position, but on the other hand, he is worried that such a move will cause trouble between brothers, between the court and Anton. bring about further alienation.

Emperor Liu is naturally confident. As long as he wants to do it, no one can stop him, even Liu Yang has to obey his orders. However, he is sure that there are definitely many ministers who are opposed, especially those supporters of the crown prince.

After all, up to now, Liu Xu has to be the one who threatens Liu Yang's crown prince.Not only because of his status as the eldest son of the emperor and the king of Qin, but also because of the ability and responsibility he has shown in these years. He has stayed in Anton for ten years as a prince, and he has never had any regrets. There is no doubt that this brought Liu Xu Came great prestige.

Looking at the annals of history, there are only a handful of people with such a noble status who can achieve this step, and there is even no one who can compare with it.Even Liu Yang had to admit Liu Xu's contributions to the big man and the Northeast, not to mention other ordinary people.

But the more this is the case, the more talent and ability you show, the easier it is to attract people's fear.Liu Yang has a generous temperament and enough tolerance to tolerate him, but the prince's supporters can't help but share their worries and worry about the Lord.Some people want to remind the prince through their words, and some people restrict and suppress Anton from other aspects and various means. These situations are unavoidable.

In this way, Liu Xu went to Andong to recruit refugees from the Northwest. Even though he obtained Liu Yang's permission and arranged for someone to be responsible, there were many obstacles and delays in the actual implementation process.

Since ancient times, for those outstanding talents in the imperial family, it is inevitable that there will be a hat of "hard to control" on their heads. Outstanding talent, sometimes it is a sin in itself.

Liu Yang's generosity is well-known in the ruling and opposition parties, but in the case of fundamental conflicts of interest, it is difficult to guarantee that his mentality will not change.Otherwise, when the Dengwengu case happened back then, after realizing those clues, they would not have been so inquisitive and wanted to investigate the hidden truth behind it.

At the beginning, Emperor Liu put Liu Xu in Anton, which was close to being exiled, but under the crude conditions of Anton, he still made some achievements, which shows how extraordinary Liu Xu is.

Since Liu Xu's departure from Beijing, it seemed that everything had been settled, and Emperor Liu's attitude was put on the table once again. If there was a threat to Liu Yang's crown prince, he would be the first to deal with it.

It stands to reason that when Liu Xuyuan left Anton, the two older princes Liu Xi and Liu Fang were also released to sit on one side, and the remaining princes posed little threat to Liu Yang. The possibility of direct conflict is greatly reduced, and the relationship can always be maintained better.

However, things are never so absolute.At least, in these years, Liu Yang inevitably received some news.If it is said that Liu Xu's actions on Anton's side and those measures to cultivate power are still within Liu Yang's acceptance range, he can even laugh it off.

But there are some rumors, but it is difficult for him to calm down.With such rumors, many people feel pity for Liu Xu, especially those noble sons and private business people who went to Anton to pan for gold.

They believed that His Royal Highness King Qin's greatest flaw was his birth. If he was also a legitimate son, if the old emperor had made Concubine Geng Chen his queen in the early years, and if the succession of the throne was based on meritorious deeds instead of legitimate sons, then King Qin's chances would be even greater.

Although facts are facts and there are not so many assumptions, it is difficult for outsiders to know how Liu Yang feels about these rumors and what he thinks in his heart.

At least, the mentality will not be so peaceful. Willfulness has always been complicated. Using the throne to test human nature will be difficult for anyone.

Liu Yang is not someone who is easily suspicious, but facing such a voice, he can't help but have doubts.And the occurrence of such rumors in Tokyo itself means that it is not normal. If there is no one to promote it, it is obviously impossible to rely on the spontaneous feelings of the subjects.

For this reason, Liu Yang also specially sent someone to investigate, and the target was directed at Anton.It is conceivable that such rumors can appear in Tokyo, and Liu Yang will not be too optimistic about the public opinion about Anton, which King Qin has been running for a long time.

Similar to Liu Yang's entanglement, Liu Yang was obviously worried, but he didn't show it.Back in the Political Affairs Hall, everything was as usual, dealing with practical affairs as usual, discussing the matters that Emperor Liu explained with Song Qi, Zhao Kuangyi and other ministers, and finding someone to arrange them one by one.

Until the evening, after returning to the East Palace, Liu Yang specially ordered someone to invite his uncle Fu Zhaoyuan, who was the commander of the deputy capital of Gyeonggi Province at that time, to come.

In the Hongde Hall, Fu Zhaoyuan paid an audience and saluted: "I don't know what orders your Highness has summoned?"

Fu Zhaoyuan is the second son of Fu Yanqing. Although he is older than Liu Yang in terms of seniority, he is actually of the same age. He has had a lot of contacts since he was a child and has a deep relationship. After all, that relationship is very solid.

Looking at Fu Zhaoyuan, Liu Yang was not polite, and said directly: "Your Majesty intends to recall the stallion Huaiyu of Fufeng County to Tokyo. Someone needs to take over from Anton to take charge of the affairs of the Imperial Army. Anton and his party."

Fu Zhaoyuan was a little stunned when he heard the words, but he quickly came to his senses. He raised his eyes to look at Liu Yang, and saw that his face was solemn, and his thoughts were also fluctuating.

Also without much hesitation, he cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to go!"
