Destiny Only Han

Chapter 878 Liu Ying: Coincidence, purely coincidence!

Taishan Palace.

After a noisy whole day, night began to fall, but the noise has not yet dissipated.

After all, it is a Chinese tradition to gather together to eat and drink after weddings and funerals or sacrificial ceremonies...

Although it was a bit mosquitoy, it was much better after lighting the mugwort.

Therefore, inside and outside the Taishan Palace at this moment, the courtiers, marquises, kings, and the three fellow villagers who participated in the event sat in different positions according to their ranks, enjoying feasts of different levels.

For example, Liu Ying was a full set of pigs, cattle and sheep. The princes and kings enjoyed all kinds of diets made of beef, and the ministers ate sheep. The three elders of the village, except for a few side dishes, had only one bad fish as their main course.

Well, bad fish, the bones melt in the mouth.

After all, fish have spines, and it would be bad if someone gets stuck and dies.

With the hot weather and the busy day, Liu Ying had no appetite, so she took a glass of wine and wandered around, planning to sit with Liu Bang and Liu Jiao.

Without him, lively.

But before he took a few steps, he suddenly felt a rush of running behind him, so he turned his head, and the first thing he saw was a shiny bald head, and then, there was a voice of a male duck in a voice-changing period.

In the next second, he raised his leg almost instinctively, kicking his foot.

Without him, Ugly refuses.

"Cousin... Ouch!"

Liu Ying withdrew her foot, and asked with embarrassment: "Huh? Why are you here? Didn't you say that you would spend a year in Guanzhong to make up for your past regrets?"

Opposite him, Mrs. Fan, who was kicked away by him, sat on the ground with a dazed face, scratched his bald head: "I'm always here! But during the day, I saw that you were too busy, cousin, so I didn't dare to come over." Excuse me..."

"It hurts, woo woo woo..."

Before Liu Ying could speak, Lu Zhi, who saw this scene, raised his eyebrows and was furious: "Liu Ying, why are you bullying my younger brother?"

After all, she was Voldemort all along...

No, Lao Lu called me by my full name... Liu Ying laughed all over her face: "Didn't you see it clearly? I thought someone had assassinated the king... Well, it's all his fault. Look at that bald head, which is still reflective. Who cares?" It's clear!"

Therefore, Lu Zhi immediately turned his firepower:
"Your parents don't dare to damage your body, hair and skin. It's the beginning of filial piety. It's okay to trim it, but who allows you to shave it off? On such an occasion, how decent is it to run around? Is this what your mother taught you? The Fan family Your face will be lost by you..."

Mrs. Fan was full of dissatisfaction. He was obviously the one who got beaten, but why was he the one who was punished in the end?
But he didn't dare to show this dissatisfaction at all, after all, he was facing Lu Zhi, a famous tigress!

Therefore, Mrs. Fan stood up quickly, and a fierce tiger fell to the ground begging for mercy and knelt on the ground: "I was wrong!"

Wrong but never repenting, this is what we left over from playing in front of Lao Lu... Liu Ying slightly snorted, her face full of disdain.

But Lu Pheasant is Voldemort after all, so after Mrs. Fan admitted her mistake, she didn't go into it any further, but nodded coldly: "Get up, it's strange how many people are here, and when I go back to my room at night, I will kneel down and reflect on the two things. Shi Chen, submit an examination of no less than [-] words tomorrow morning!"

Ten thousand words?Just kill me!As for the teammates, save me... Mrs. Fan winked at Liu Ying desperately.

Received, you owe me one more time... Liu Ying said with a smile based on the principle of helping each other:

"My cousin is still young and hasn't been crowned yet, so it's normal to mess around... Besides, he has made a name for himself in a foreign land before, which can be regarded as adding luster to my big man... Mother, please forgive him this time!"

"As for shaving this bald head...well, someone must have spoiled it!"

In the distance, Lu Tai silently put on a hood to cover his shiny bald head with two lines of ring scars, trying to suppress his sense of existence, even though he was sweating profusely in the heat...

Lu Zhi nodded in agreement, looked around but did not find the instigator and instigator, and looked at Mrs. Fan with a cold face:
"Only this once, and you will never be merciless next time! You must know that you are not only the heir of Marquis Wuyang, but also a relative of the Han Dynasty. Every word and deed represents the image of the royal family. Look at your cousin, the emperor, when he was younger than you At once……"

"Why don't you know how to study well?"

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Lu Zhi took a mouthful of herbal tea dryly: "Okay, let's play with your emperor's cousin!"

As if being pardoned, Mrs. Fan looked helplessly at Liu Ying who was sitting next to Lu Zhi, and saw that he was propping his chin with his hands, his head was bouncing, and it was obvious that he was about to fall asleep.

"Cousin... the emperor's cousin!"

Liu Ying woke up suddenly: "Mother is right!"

Why did I have such an evil... Lv Zhi was helpless, turned his head to the other side, and the expression on his face became more and more lonely.

There, there is another evil obstacle that she gave birth to...

However, compared with this evil obstacle, that evil obstacle is much more worry-free. At the moment, his mouth is full of oil and his head is sweating profusely, which is in stark contrast to Zhang Buyi who is sitting next to him like an exile.

After all, what Liu Le pursues is to be happy in life, and it doesn't matter if his image is not...

For this reason, Lu Tai asked her to preach more than once, trying to get her to join the big family of Dahan New Buddhism, to be a free Buddhist who is not bound by the rules and regulations, and is not bound by the world...

But the problem is that he needs to shave his head, so Liu Le just beat him out with a broom...

However, the kind of happy life that Lu Tai advocates, which is not to be respected by the world, is still very popular among the second generation of rich and powerful.

For example, Liu Ying, who cares less about his image in private, now opened his mouth like a hippopotamus and yawned, then smeared his buttonhole shit on Mrs. Fan: "If you don't go over there to play with Xia Houzao and the others, What are you looking for me for?"

Mrs. Fan moved two steps forward and lowered his voice: "Have you received the memorial written by cousin Lu Tai and I, Cousin Emperor?"

"Yo? The sun is coming out from the west!" Liu Ying was full of curiosity and teased, "You two are the only ones still writing memorials? Did you read all the words?"

Mrs. Fan clenched her fists: "The emperor's cousin just likes to look down on people, and now I am no longer that fool who only knows how to mess around! I can also play the piano!"

Well, it's true.

After all, the term of General Hu Zhonglang, the guardian of the east of Fan Kuai, is over, and now he is transferred back to Guanzhong to become a lieutenant, that is, the commander of the capital's security and concurrently the chief of the fire department. Although he looks very busy, in fact, there are thousands of officials, and he only drinks tea and reads newspapers every day. fishing...

Therefore, the good days of Fan Kang are coming to an end.

Needless to say, bowing horse riding and shooting, Fan Kui even specially invited two musicians to teach Fan Kang how to play the piano.

Mrs. Fan is a dog butcher from the bottom of the society. Now that he is prominent and wealthy, he naturally wants to be arty!
Therefore, this is the reason why Mrs. Fan fled from Chang'an even if she shaved her head...

Liu Ying nodded noncommittally, and asked, "What kind of memorial?"

Mrs. Fan looked around, and lowered her voice again: "Some people criticize the emperor's cousin, saying that it is the drought and the possible locust plague that the emperor's cousin said that the emperor's cousin has lost his virtue, so he is punished by heaven!"

A fierce look flashed in Lu Zhi's Kazilan's big eyes, but she didn't interject directly.

After all, she is only the Supreme Empress, not suitable for meddling in government affairs. The important thing is that she also has an emperor's son that she is proud of, so she should be safe first!
Liu Ying frowned: "I don't even know, how did you know it?"

Mrs. Fan pointed to her shiny head: "Brother Lu Tai and I went to the countryside to grab land... Well, when preaching, I heard a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian scholar say that the cousin of the emperor does not cultivate benevolence, Foreign militarism and extravagance in daily life have caused the heavens to warn..."

Liu Ying was silent for a while without words.

The concepts of the unity of man and nature and the interaction between man and nature were first expounded by Zhuangzi, later learned by Confucianism, and finally formed and carried forward in the hands of Dong Zhongshu. Therefore, it is normal for this kind of thought to appear in this place where Confucianism was born.

Seeing that Liu Ying was silent, Lu Zhi asked, "And then?"

Mrs. Fan was a little embarrassed: "I didn't catch up, let him run away... Blame Cousin Lu Tai's incompetent guards!"

Those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black, waste is always surrounded by waste... Lu Zhi stared and did not speak.

Mrs. Fan went on to say: "Later, my cousin Lu Tai and I searched the local area together, and sent the picture of the man, together with his remarks, to Qu Nihou (Chen Ping)...Why, cousin, you confiscated it." Are you there?"

Liu Ying was silent for a while, and shook her head: "If you tell me about such a trivial matter, then I'm still in a hurry to die?"

"Small matter?" Mrs. Fan scratched her head, "But I think it's a big matter... Besides, when Lu Tai and I were looking for people to paint the portrait of that person, we heard more than one person say that the drought at this time was because the emperor's cousin lost his morals... ..."

"I've written all of these in the memorial!"

"Could it be that Qu Nihou didn't say that?"

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Ying who looked normal, and remained silent.

Liu Ying was silent for a while, then said with a smile: "Qu Nihou, I can trust him."

Lu Zhi thought for a while, and nodded in agreement.

Qu Nihou is Chen Ping, the Chen Ping who killed Fan Zeng directly, and easily manipulated Han Xin with tricks.

Although he has been a rebellious boy more than once in history, but in the current situation, a smart person will definitely not jump back and do something out of his mind.

Therefore, according to Lu Zhi's guess, perhaps Chen Ping was only investigating in secret before the truth came out and there was clear evidence. Everyone knows.

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Mrs. Fan didn't say anything more, but said quietly: "Cousin, there is one more thing I don't know if you want to know..."

Liu Ying was expressionless: "Say."

Mrs. Fan touched her bald head: "Is there any benefit?"

Liu Ying showed her fist as big as a sandbag in front of him: "If you don't say anything, I will beat you. If you say something, I won't beat you. Is this considered a good thing?"

Fan Kang was stunned, and looked at Lu Zhi with an aggrieved expression.

But Lu Zhi casually looked away. After all, nephews are not close to sons. Besides, if the boys quarrel, fighting will help strengthen the relationship!

At this moment, Liu Ying turned her head, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Needless to say, I roughly already know what is going on."

In the distance, those three fellow villagers who ate and drank after watching the ceremony gathered together, walked towards Liu Ying slowly but resolutely, and immediately fell to their knees.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Mrs. Fan moved to the side and lowered his voice: "Cousin, be careful, these old guys are here for your order to catch locusts and dig up locust eggs!"

What should come is finally here... Liu Ying looked calmly, looking at the group of [-]-year-olds who worshiped on the ground: "Everyone, please get up quickly."

This is called respecting the elderly.

Among the three fellow villagers who stood up slowly, some of them held crutches, slightly hunched, and their faces were full of signs of time. Tears filled their eyes suddenly, and they were so excited that they couldn't control themselves.

These people are all veterans who have fought under Liu Ying's command!

The Battle of Gaixia, the Northern Expedition to the Huns, the Southern Expedition to Baiyue, and the suppression of Yingbu...

Now, 20 years have passed in a hurry, and they are full of hair, but their commander-in-chief, their emperor is still young and young, at the height of the sun, wise and wise far better than before!

But a wise man will lose a thousand thoughts, and a fool will gain a thousand thoughts.

The gods in their hearts also have moments when they make mistakes.

Then, a man with dark complexion and gray hair came out from the crowd: "Xiao Min Tian Qi pays homage to His Majesty..."

Liu Ying was taken aback for a moment, feeling that she had heard this name somewhere before.

He thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized: "It's you, my hero!"

As a result, Tian Qi burst into tears, and the three fellow villagers around him couldn't help casting envious glances at him.

This man was a warrior selected by Liu Ying when he was the commander of the East Route Army during the Chu-Han War. During the Battle of Gaixia, he used a long spear as a pole to jump into the Chu Army formation, killing the last one. Actually survived.

Later, during the crusade against Yingbo, he took his son to join the army, and the father and son fought hard.

Liu Ying doesn't remember his feats in the previous battle of Gaixia very clearly, but he remembers the deeds in the crusade against Yingbo especially.

After all, Liu Ying personally issued the order to beat him with the army stick.

To put it simply, Tian Qi and his son Tian Mao were not in the same centurion during the battle, but during the battle, Tian Mao's centurion went too deep into the enemy's line due to the problem of the messengers, so that they fell into a tight siege.

At this time, Tian Qi was eager to save his son, and rushed into the Yingbu army alone in disregard of orders. Although he was unparalleled in bravery, he rushed astray under the enemy...

So, when Tian Mao's centurion broke through the encirclement, Tian Qi was still searching for his son who was besieged by the enemy...

But in that battle, the Han army was equipped with the latest artillery and muskets, so when Tian Qi opened Wushuang in the British cloth army, the main force of the British cloth army had already begun to collapse.

This led to seven wounds in Tian Qi's body, and he survived after bleeding for several liters...

It’s just that the merits are not enough, Tian Qi’s bravery made Yingbo’s army even more defeated to a certain extent, and Liu Bang also issued an amnesty, but the army sticks that should be beaten must not be less, at most, they should be beaten after the injury is healed...

After all, this is the army, and it is about orders and prohibitions, and imperial power is not even greater than general orders.

So Liu Ying looked at Tian Qi and asked, "Where's Tian Mao? I remember he said he was going to take the Dahan Public School? Did you pass the exam?"

Tian Qi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, choked with sobs but said with a smile: "Thanks to His Majesty, Quan Zi was admitted to Dahan Public School as he wished, and now he is a county lieutenant in Yanggu County, Dongjun County..."

Yanggu County, this is a good place... Liu Ying smiled all over her face:
"Sure enough, I am a hero, my son is a hero, your father and son are worthy of being the pillars of the country!"

He boasted, and then asked: "Tell me, why are you here today?"

Tian Qi was a little hesitant, but he still said seriously: "Xiaomin and others are here to ask His Majesty to take back his order!"

Liu Ying asked, "Which order?"

Tian Qi knelt down on the ground, clasped his fists and said: "The locust god is powerful, if your majesty orders to kill his descendants, he will inevitably suffer revenge from the other party..."

Liu Ying stood up, looked at the three fellow villagers standing in front of him, and asked, "Are you all here for this?"

The three fellow sages knelt down and said yes.

Liu Ying said solemnly: "My father is the emperor of the Taishang Wuji Nine Heavens Commander Tianzun. My father killed the white snake, punished the Qin Dynasty, and became the son of heaven. I accept the fate of the heavens. What's the point of mere locusts?"

"Besides, I ordered people to hunt and kill locusts to prevent problems before they happen. If it rains, the plague of locusts will be nothing to worry about..."

Well, although Liu Ying sometimes calls herself the emperor and the son of heaven, in fact, in the Han Dynasty, these are two completely different titles. A virtual blood relationship was established between them, in exchange for the BUFF of the divine right of kings...

The difference between the two is that "the emperor's enthronement" is an inner Zen, which is usually completed by reading policies and granting seals before the coffin of the first emperor, while "the emperor's ascension to the throne" is an outer Zen, which is completed by offering sacrifices to heaven. (Note 1)

Therefore, the current emperor of the Han Dynasty is Liu Ying, but the emperor of the Han Dynasty is actually Liu Bang...

The power of the king is granted by God, and Liu Bang is the son of heaven who holds the artifact!
Hearing Liu Ying's words, the group of fellow villagers dared not speak, but a drunken murmur sounded out of nowhere from among the courtiers who surrounded him.

"Rain? How can there be rain..."

It was a coincidence that when Liu Ying was looking around majesticly, a few muffled thunders suddenly sounded in the distance.

Immediately afterwards, strong winds blew up, and dark clouds came from nowhere, quickly covering the entire sky.

Then, a hot raindrop hit Liu Ying's cheek.

"It's raining……"

"Are you kidding, just say it?"

……

A series of exclamations erupted from the crowd.

I don't know who started it. In the sudden rainstorm, amidst the lightning and thunder that filled the sky, and amidst the howling wind, there was a hoarse cry.

"Your Majesty, you are virtuous!"

"My emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

……

Liu Ying was wet all over by the rain, and she was a little embarrassed, but amidst the flickering lightning and the deafening thunder, he put away the bewildered look on his face, as if he had predicted all this and was as calm as before. .

At this moment, he is the god in the world!
