Han Shizu

Chapter 616 "Jokes"

Driving from the imperial city, driving on the greatly expanded road, at this time, the southern part of the imperial city, the former government offices, camps, warehouses, and mansions have already begun to be demolished, and they only need to be rebuilt according to the planning drawings.

The roads, especially the four main roads in the horizontal and vertical directions, were all demolished on both sides, regardless of whether they were official residences or private houses, to make room for the repair of imperial roads.Shuttle passing by, can feel some chaos, but every plant, every tree, every brick and tile, reveals an aura of prosperity.

Liu Chengxun's Prince Yong's Mansion, especially close to the imperial city, was also within the scope of demolition. Due to this reason, Liu Chengyou let the couple live in the palace, but Liu Chengxun firmly resigned because of inappropriate etiquette.

Driving in the car, Liu Chengxun leaned on the carriage, observed the city of Kaifeng under the spring night through the curtains, and sighed for a long time: "Tokyo has changed a lot in the past two years!"

Concubine Yong Qian could not help leaning forward, snuggling into his arms, holding his somewhat cold hand, conveying warmth, and asked considerately: "Sanlang, what's wrong with you, since you left the palace, you have been worried? "

Listening to Qian's soft voice, he was stunned, and noticed the concern on her beautiful face. Liu Chengxun smiled lightly, took her into his arms, and said, "Second Brother, let us have a baby quickly! We need to work hard "

As soon as these words fell, Qian's pretty face flushed slightly, and she smiled shyly, but there was also a look of anticipation in her eyes.They have been married for almost three years, and they have nothing to do. The pressure on Qian is also great. Of course, it is Liu Chengxun who loves her body and has been restrained.

Looking at Liu Chengxun's handsome face, he fell into meditation again, but Qian didn't ask any more questions.She knew that Liu Chengxun was pretending to have something in his heart, but she had no intention to confide in it, nor did she intend to continue to inquire, as long as she stayed with him.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Chengxun woke up early, practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard for a while as usual, broke out in a sweat, took a bath, and Fang and Wang Hao finished their breakfast.

In Weiji, Wang Taifu Li Song came to the door and was directly led into the study by him.After taking his seat, Li Song immediately asked, "The king called me, what's the matter?"

Sitting behind the desk, Liu Chengxun remained silent for a long time. From his expression, one could tell that the matter was not simple.Seeing this, Li Song couldn't help becoming nervous.

After a long time, Liu Chengxun said: "The Taifu has been my teacher for several years, and he can be said to be the person I trust the most!"

Hearing what he said, Li Song was even more surprised. After thinking about it, he guessed: "Could it be that something happened at the palace banquet last night?"

Sighing, Liu Chengxun said: "It's normal for a family banquet to be enjoyed. It's just that after the banquet, the emperor was drunk and said something to me, which made me feel uneasy, and I still feel uneasy!"

Obviously, the problem lies in the emperor's words. Li Song asked: "I don't know what you said to the king, Your Majesty?"

A trace of hesitation flashed across his face, Liu Chengxun took a deep breath, and said: "At that time, the second elder brother told me to let me live a life of experience. The princes under his knees are still young, and the foundation of the country is not yet solid. If there is something wrong with him, let me."

Liu Chengxun didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but Li Song could guess the general idea.The old face was not happy, but became more serious, and asked Liu Chengxun urgently: "How did the king respond?"

"What can I do? I'm afraid to push back! The second brother is rich in age, how could he have such an idea! Although the sons are young, they are enough to protect them from growing up. I, the emperor's younger brother, dare to have delusions!" Liu Chengxun replied .

Hearing this, Li Song breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your Majesty has responded correctly!"

After talking, Liu Chengxun asked Li Song directly: "Last night, the second brother was drunk, and I don't know if he is really drunk. Why do you have such thoughts? Taifu, do you think this is testing me?"

Li Song thought for a while, and said to Liu Chengxun: "Maybe it's just that your majesty loves his brother and worries about the country, and he said it while he was drunk; maybe your majesty really has this intention. After all, all the sons are young, and among the clans, only the king's blood is the closest. The age is also suitable; perhaps, it is His Majesty's temptation, as the king said, the emperor has flourished in spring and autumn, and he has always been in good health for only 24 years. Now that the country is under governance and the world is gradually moving towards unity, how could he come up with such intentions?"

Li Song's analysis, as if he said nothing, made Liu Chengxun even more worried.Seeing his face full of doubts, Li Song hesitated for a while, and asked in a deep voice: "Does Your Majesty have any ambitions?"

Meeting his gaze, Liu Chengxun shook his head with certainty: "Absolutely not! I have made it clear to my second brother that I only wish to be a virtuous king and do what I can for the great Han society and the people of the world. That's enough. Nothing else. Dare to hope!"

Subconsciously, Li Song heaved a sigh of relief, but he was a little worried that Liu Chengxun had something he shouldn't have because of some "drunk words" from the emperor.The issue of the succession of the throne involved has always been sensitive. How could the wise emperor of today be so rash.

After thinking for a while, Li Song said again: "No matter what, Your Majesty can pretend to be drunk and joke that everything is the same, so don't worry about it!"

Nodding his head, Liu Chengxun frowned slightly, but said with a wry smile: "I have been afraid of this second brother since I was a child. After he succeeds to the throne, he will hold the title of Tianxian and rule the world. Although he is not as strict as before, he takes good care of me. But in my heart, I am actually more afraid of him.”

Feeling Liu Chengxun's doubts and troubles, Li Song solemnly said to him: "Your Majesty is a royal nobleman, King Yong of the Great Han Dynasty, His Majesty's only younger brother. Under your honor, these doubts and burdens are also yours to bear!"

"Don't think otherwise for now, just wait calmly!"

"Thank you for your teaching!"

Li Song looked at Liu Chengxun, he had watched him grow up, even though he was only a double tenth year, under his teaching, he had already become a talent.He has a gentle temperament, and is not naive in his thoughts and thoughts. He will be a well-known and virtuous king in the future, and he will have no problem at all.

After calming down, Liu Chengxun and Li Song talked about some situations in the court: "This time, the second brother called all over the country to festivals and defend the capital in the name of Jiaqing Festival. I think it's another dismissal! Uncle Li Hongwei and brother-in-law Song Yanwo, I'm afraid they will inevitably be transferred!"

Li Song nodded and said: "There are precedents to follow, and this is foreseeable. Since the end of the Southern Expedition, His Majesty has spent two years adjusting and restructuring the country's military and government. The trend is the general trend, and no one can go against the trend. "

"If the power is lifted when we enter Beijing this time, except for a few places in the Han Dynasty, there will be no feudal towns that combine military and political power!" Li Song said, with emotion all over his face: "The disaster of the feudal towns has led to separatism." The troubles, the ministers went through the Tang and Jin Dynasties, and the two dynasties all took it as a trouble, and the dynasty also died here. The emperors, whether wise or foolish, all had military policies to suppress and suppress them, but they failed to achieve their achievements and suffered instead.

In today's world, he is able to control arrogant soldiers internally, flatten feudal towns externally, and eliminate the source of national turmoil in the past dynasties. What a hero!Now that the calamity of the vassals and towns has been resolved, the Han Dynasty can concentrate its forces, flatten the kingdoms, and rule the world! "

On weekdays, Liu Chengxun also likes to listen to Li Song talk about the chaos of the previous generation and the current politics.At this time, after hearing what he said, I became interested and began to chat with him about the world.
When he said goodbye and left, Li Song had some deep thoughts on his old face. Although he was persuading Liu Chengxun to relax, he himself was full of worries and was still thinking about the emperor's "joke".

Today, the Han Dynasty is flourishing and thriving, the imperial power is becoming more and more stable, the country is becoming stronger and stronger, and a bright future can be expected.However, the future is never predictable.

Regardless of whether Liu Chengyou has that thought or not, judging from the current situation of the big man.If, if there is any accident, all his sons are still young, then for the sake of the Liu family, the continuation of the Han Dynasty, and the stability of the country, rationally speaking, only Liu Chengxun is the most suitable to succeed Liu Chengyou's great cause.

In Li Song's heart, he could think clearly about these things, but he didn't dare to tell Liu Chengxun.It is also for Liu Chengxun's consideration, the emperor's mind is unpredictable, the current situation can be considered in this way, but what about the future?When the world is unified, the great cause is accomplished, and the princes grow up, the honor and favor of today may become the poison of death in the future, so we must be cautious
