Dahan first prince

Chapter 12 I Lend His Two Courages!

"Mother."

Back at the Xuanshi Hall, as soon as they arrived at the gate, Liu Ying had a face-to-face meeting with her second uncle, Lu Shizhi.

When Liu Ying came to the apse, Lu's complexion had calmed down a lot.

"Ying'er, come."

As usual, he called Liu Ying to sit beside him, and Lu Zhi asked kindly, "Marquis Yingyin..."

"How did Ying'er calculate?"

As soon as she heard Lu Zhi's words, Liu Ying understood: My old lady Lu Zhi, this is the meaning of the school examination.

"Right."

"The current Lv Zhi should not have the dangerous idea of ​​'overhead son'."

With a ventriloquist inwardly, Liu Ying pretended to organize her words, dawdled for a while, and then smiled obediently.

"My son thinks that the Marquis of Yingyin tends to follow the power of the people, and he is always in danger, but he is alone. It is really unbelievable."

"However, today, my uncle Zhou Lv ordered the Marquis Wu's tribe to be idle, even the Marquis of Wuyang, and he has no soldiers."

"Today, at the funeral of the Supreme Emperor, the father made it clear to all the officials that he would like to reserve the throne in person."

"In this critical autumn, if the Marquis of Yingyin changes his family, it may cause Lu's children and elders to be in constant panic, while the officials of the foreign dynasty, the meritorious marquis and Yuanxun, may secretly follow the example of Marquis Yingyin and serve in the account of King Zhao. Down."

"In this way, the son's reserve position and the mother's successor position are all in danger..."

Expressing her opinion in a calm tone, Liu Ying raised her head slightly, pretending to be solemn and serious.

But deep down in her heart, Liu Ying didn't worry too much.

Sure enough, as Liu Ying expected, seeing Liu Ying's posture as if facing an enemy, Lu Zhi only sighed a little, smiled lightly and stroked Liu Ying's head.

"Not so much~"

"However, Ying'er's concerns are considered comprehensive."

Seeing that Lu Zhi calmly said "not so", Liu Ying also showed a surprised expression in cooperation.

"The emperor's father wants to be easy to store, and the queen mother has a countermeasure?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhi only nodded with a light smile, his face was calm, and he said something that made Liu Ying dumbfounded in an easy-going tone.

"Ah."

"Mother Tong Jiancheng Hou Yi: When Chen Xi is in chaos, Liu Heng, the fourth son of the emperor, will be appointed as the acting king, and Qi Youxiang Fu Kuan will be the acting prime minister!"

"Zhou Chang is the chancellor of Zhao, and Fu Kuan is the prime minister. If King Zhao's Nanu has a son, he will be able to control the prime minister and Zhao's soldiers endlessly."

Hearing this remark, Liu Ying felt a wave of turmoil in her heart!
——Operate Fu Kuan as the acting prime minister to deal with Zhou Chang, the prime minister of Zhao, and let Liu Heng act as the acting king to contain Zhao Wang and Liu Ruyi?

It can be said that there is no more subtle and operational solution than this!
Fu Kuan, Marquis of Yangling, was the tenth founding hero of the Han Dynasty, and his status among the founding fathers was almost no less than that of Zhou Chang, Marquis of Fenyin!

And the memory of the previous life told Liu Ying: Fu Kuan, Marquis of Yangling, was also a member of the "Old Zhou Lu Bu" group!
As for the fourth son Liu Heng?
Even now, when Liu Heng is six years old, Liu Heng's mother, Bo Ji, is still serving by Lu Zhi's side!
No matter for Liu Ying or Empress Lu Zhi, the fourth brother Liu Heng and his mother Bo Ji are people who can be completely trusted!
And in this era of low medical level and extremely low infant survival rate, the age of six happens to be the watershed to bid farewell to the fragile infancy and embark on the teenage years.

In other words: no matter in terms of age or according to the usual practice, the fourth son of the emperor, Liu Heng, has indeed reached the age that should be crowned king.

——It was also when Han Wangxin defected to the Huns, and the Han-Hungarian War was about to start, but Liu Bang’s second brother, Dai Wang Liu Xi, abandoned the land and fled. Today’s Zhao Wang Liu Ruyi was six years old and was named Dai Wang by Liu Bang today!
As for Liu Ruyi being moved to the title of King Zhao, it was because last year, King Zhang Ao of Zhao was demoted to Marquis of Xuanping 'for a crime', the position of King Zhao was vacated, and the strategic significance of Zhao State was extraordinary, so Liu Ruyi took it. Cheap.

The fourth son of the emperor, Liu Heng, is six years old and has reached the age of becoming a king. Now in the Guandong, the state of Yan has Lu Wan, the king of Yan, the third son of the emperor, Liu Ruyi, in the state of Zhao, Peng Yue, the king of Liang in the state of Liang, and Liu Fei, the eldest son of the emperor in the state of Qi;
In the state of Chu there is Liu Jiao, the youngest brother of Liu Bang; in the states of Huainan and Changsha there are princes Yingbu and Wu Chen with different surnames;

Looking around, in the entire Kanto land, only Daiguo, who was entrusted to Liu Bang's second brother Liu Xi, was deposed because Liu Xi escaped from the battle, and his throne was temporarily vacant.

That is to say, there is no need for Lu Zhi to do anything to operate Liu Heng as the acting king. It is only necessary to send a courtier to stand up and say to Liu Bang: Your Majesty, the fourth son of the emperor, Liu Heng, should be crowned king, and you will be done.

——In Kanto, there is only Dai and no princes and kings. As long as Liu Heng is crowned king, he must be the king of Dai!

But the problem is...

"Mother."

Seeing Liu Ying whispering with hesitation, she was a little puzzled and said: "Marquis of Yangling, Fu Kuan, isn't he Prime Minister of Qi right now?"

"And the Marquis of Yangling, who was the former Marquis of Wu under Lu Ling of Zhou, moved him to be the prime minister..."

Speaking of this, Liu Ying couldn't help but pause, hesitated in every possible way, and finally said bluntly: "Can the father agree?"

"I can't stand him not agreeing!"

In an instant, Lu Zhi's originally gentle and loving face was taken over by a chilling gloom!

After a while, Lu Zhi calmed down again, but what Lu Zhi said did not make Liu Ying feel better.

"I have expected the matter of Yi Chu!"

"Therefore, a few days ago, I sent a letter to Qi Chancellor Fu Kuan and Cao Can to prepare for any eventuality!"

Speaking of this, Lu Zhi was afraid that Liu Ying would not understand, and added: "My elder brother Zhou Lvling Wuhou, and Pingyanghou Cao Shen are also quite related..."

Hearing this, Liu Ying already felt that the development of the situation was a bit beyond the boundaries of her imagination!

"In the previous life, this is how my mother kept my throne?!"

"Using the chaos in Qi and the corruption in the Kanto region as a threat to force Liu Bang to submit..."

Lu Zhi didn't pay much attention to Liu Ying's astonishment, and just continued: "Besides, I also sent Jiancheng Hou to seek advice from Liuhou the day before yesterday; tomorrow, Jianchenghou will set off to Shangshan to invite talents."

"In this matter, Ying'er will not ask any more questions, the queen mother will not harm Ying'er."

Hearing this, Liu Ying was even more astonished.

"Shangshan Sihao!!!!!!"

Secretly thinking about her past life, after the confinement period ended, Liu Ying finally came to terms with the four octogenarians who followed her every day.

"Whoo~"

"It's really..."

Hearing Lu Zhi's countermeasures against Liu Bang's intention to abolish the reserve, Liu Ying only felt that her previous two lives had been wasted!
Seeing Liu Ying staring blankly in shock, Lv Zhi seemed to have a heart of happiness, and smiled lightly and patted Liu Ying's head.

"Ying'er, don't worry~"

"With the queen mother here, Ying'er will not be deceived by outsiders."

Speaking domineeringly, "I'm covering you", Lu Zhi patted Liu Ying's cheek again.

"Let's go, it's getting late."

"Recently, be more peaceful in the palace, and don't let outsiders pick up your tongue."

Hearing this, Liu Ying just nodded dully and walked out of the hall.

Walking to the gate of the palace, Liu Ying seemed to think of something, stopped on her feet, turned around and looked at Lu Zhi.

"Empress, there are many people in the palace, and the empress is talking about the father, shouldn't she..."

"Be more respectful?"

"If the emperor knows about it, and then vents his anger on the queen..."

It's a pity that Liu Ying's kind reminder only attracted Lu Zhi's arrogant declaration.

"anger?!"

"I'll lend him Liu Ji two guts!!!"

PS: Cao Shen is the old man of Zhou Lu, not an accurate historical fact, but an inference by the author; the reasoning of the literature review will be released in the follow-up "Character Interpretation" section.

The background of the article is "Cao Shen is neutral in principle, but emotionally biased toward Lu".

It is a historical fact that Liu Heng was appointed king and Fu Kuan was appointed prime minister.

"Historical Records: The Benji of Gaozu": (Emperor Gao) 11 years... So Zhao Shanbei was divided, and Li Ziheng thought it was the acting king, and his capital was Jinyang.

"Historical Records Biography of Fu Jin Kuaicheng": Marquis of Yangling, Fu Kuan, took the five great officials of Wei as the prime minister of Qi You, and prepared Qi... (Emperor Gao's 12th year) in January, and moved to the prime minister.
