I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan
Chapter 271 The Kingdom of Chen is small and the land is narrow, not enough for Chapter Xuan
Chapter 271
Liu Sheng patted his chest and said, "I'll go and fix Uncle Tian", which made Liu Yu smile, and hurriedly raised the wine cup, and invited Liu Sheng to have a drink.
After warming the wine, Liu Yu showed a little enjoyment on his face. I don't know if the wine is really delicious, or Liu Yu has already begun to look forward to tomorrow's hunting.
When the brothers lowered their heads and fell into silence with smiles on their faces, the seventh brother Liu Pengzu, who was sandwiched between the sixth child Liu Fa and the eighth child Liu Duan, also raised his wine companion at the right time and invited Liu Yuyao for a drink with a smile .
"It's only been a little over a year, but fourth brother's tongue has improved a lot?"
As soon as this remark came out, Liu Yu only smiled even more. Instead of being unhappy because Liu Pengzu mentioned this matter, he cast his grateful eyes on Liu Sheng who was not far away from him again.
"Hi······"
"It was back then, His Highness supported this method;"
Seeing Liu Yu smiled, he lowered his head and took out a few stones from his bosom that were obviously not very precious, but the surface had been 'polished' and extremely smooth.
"In the past few years, these few stones have been held in the mouth of the widow for three or two hours every day."
"——After a long time, it has become a habit;"
"Right now, if I don't stay for a while one day, I feel a little uncomfortable..."
With the utmost ease, it was as easy as talking about other people's affairs, and simply gave the answer to Liu Pengzu's question, and Liu Yu bowed his head again with a smile.
Carefully hiding those precious stones back in his bosom, he raised his head and forced a smile at his brothers pretending to be relaxed.
Seeing Liu Yu being so calm and breezy, the brothers naturally smiled.
Yes, I am happy for Liu Yu;
Some are just polite, pretending to be happy for Liu Yu.
Only Liu Sheng, after Liu Yu's pretendingly relaxed narration, instantly saw through the bitterness in Liu Yu's eyes;
In addition, looking at Liu Yu's gaze, there was also a little sympathy, and even though he tried his best to conceal it, he still couldn't get rid of it.
——Same as "the fourth son of the emperor is good at hunting", the fourth son of the emperor is stupid, and it is also well known in Chang'an.
But what most people don't know is: the fourth son of the current emperor, Liu Yu, who has just been named King of Lu for less than two years, is actually born with a stutter.
The old saying is good: don't care what the problem is, if you are born with it, there is mostly no cure;
Even if it can be cured, it is basically extremely difficult to cure, and it is extremely difficult to cure it in a short time.
Liu Yu's natural stuttering problem is obviously also listed here...
"Fourth brother said it was easy, but in secret, I don't know how much he has suffered..."
"Especially the place where the fourth brother was awarded the title is the place where ethics and education flourished in the past [-] years: Ludi..."
"Ah~"
"Poor life..."
···
"All my brothers are hard-working people..."
Thinking like this, Liu Sheng let out another long sigh, and cast his eyes on everyone in the banquet in sequence.
——Boss Liu Rong, needless to say: just over a month ago, the majestic eldest son of the current emperor, the king of Linjiang, was imprisoned in the Lieutenant's Mansion for trumped-up charges, and he was almost on the verge of death;
The second child, Liu De, was supposed to be the right and left arm of the prince and the most trustworthy sibling, but because of his mother, Li Ji, he basically lost everything he should have had.
Both brothers have lost their mothers;
And the two's half-brother: Liu Yu, the third child, died in a feudal country that he was not familiar with: Changshan before he became an adult...
Withdrawing his eyes from the opposite seat and looking to the left, Liu Sheng sighed again.
The fourth brother, Liu Yu, was born with a stutter, and he was sent to Ludi, where ethics prevails and rotten Confucianism is everywhere;
Although Liu Yu didn't say it, and there is a high probability that he won't mention it, Liu Sheng is very sure: in the past year or so, Liu Yu's stuttering problem has caused many pretentious rotten scholars to catch the "Kuangzheng Monarch" Opportunity······
The fifth elder brother, Liu Fei, looks like an old man, laughing and joking all day long, but deep down, Liu Fei also has his own lofty ideals.
But Liu Fei's final feudal state was in the eastern coastal area where the Xiongnu could not be touched in the north and Baiyue could not be seen in the south: Jiangdu.
If there is no accident, Liu Fei will never have the opportunity to ride a horse to fight again in his life;
The lofty aspirations that belonged exclusively to the passionate youth will surely become a regret that Liu Fei will never be able to achieve in his entire life...
Turn your head and look to your right hand side;
The first thing that catches the eye is Liu Fa, the sixth brother sitting beside him.
But even Liu Fa...
"Your highness, your highness invited a banquet, and I hurried out, so I really didn't have time to prepare gifts;"
"Brothers, if you are in a good mood, why don't you let me perform a dance, and the right is to add to the fun..."
Almost at the same time Liu Sheng turned his head and turned his gaze to him, Liu Fa, who was already the king of Changsha, hurriedly stood up from his seat.
Even the self-proclaimed "widow" was changed to "chen" by Liu Fa in a humble way;
After putting forward the request of "presenting a dance", Liu Fa stood there even more awkwardly, waiting for his younger brother - the current prince and prince: Liu Sheng's permission...
"Sixth brother's kindness, I really have no reason to refuse;"
"The king of Changsha can do as he pleases."
···
If it is said that at this moment, the nine brothers gathered in the side hall of the Crown Prince's Palace are all hard-fated people without exception, then the most miserable one among them is undoubtedly the one who has become a clan prince, but still proposes to be brothers." Liu Fa, the king of Changsha who performed a dance.
Where is the pain?
嘿;
The three words 'Changsha King' alone are already an unbearable pain for most people...
"I don't know how the sixth brother has lived in Changsha these years?"
"It is said that in the past few years, Zhao Tuo of Nanyue was not very safe;"
"—At the beginning of last year, Liu Bi, Liu Wu and other thieves raised their troops, and Zhao Tuo even secretly dispatched the South Vietnamese army to assist Liu Bi."
"That is to say, after the rebellion was put down, Liu Bi, Liu Wu and other thieves were all crowned heads, so that Baiyue in the south of Lingnan was more peaceful."
"I just don't know: This time, how many years will Zhao Tuo, the 'King of Nanyue' of my Han family, be able to live in peace?"
While Liu Sheng was speaking, Liu Fa had already walked forward on his own, between the east and west seats, dancing his body with the sound of Sesheng;
And the moment Liu Sheng mentioned Lingnan, especially the words "Nanyue Zhao Tuo", Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu who was sitting next to Liu Sheng's left, suddenly became a little excited!
But after jumping for joy for a short time, Liu Fei didn't know what he thought of, so he just sighed to himself, and then lowered his head.
Regarding Liu Fei's attitude, the brothers could only lower their heads with a sneer and didn't say much.
——Liu Fei's Jiangdu State was indeed the Wu State that once belonged to Liu Bi.
But the current Jiangdu State does not include the entire territory of the former Wu State.
At the beginning of the founding of Liu Han, the Han family did not even have Wu;
Or it should be said that the State of Wu at that time was also called: State of Jing.
In the fifth year of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty (202 BC), Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, killed himself in Wujiang, unified the world, and the world belonged to Han.
Later, Liu Bang, Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty, divided the Jingchu land that once belonged to Xiang Yu into Jing and Chu.
The state of Chu was granted by Liu Bang to his only younger brother, the grandfather of King Liu Wu of Chu: Liu Jiao, King of Chu Yuan.
As for the country of Jing, Liu Bang sealed it to a distant relative: cousin Liu Jia.
Six years later, at the end of the 11th year of Emperor Taizu Gao (196 BC), the last prince with a different surname in Liu Han Sheji: Huainan Wang Yingbu (Tattoo) rebelled.
In order to quell the rebellion, Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang dragged his sick body and marched in person at the age of 62;
Although in the end, Liu Bang quelled the rebellion without accident, but a stray arrow shot from nowhere made the wise and mighty Taizu Emperor Gao completely lose the last remaining vitality.
Soon after the rebellion was put down, that is, in the 12th year of Emperor Taizu Gao (195 BC), Taizu Liu Bang died in Changle Palace.
Prince Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, and Liu Han Sheji entered the 15-year period of "Empress Dowager Lv in power".
Speaking of Huainan Wang Yingbu's rebellion, this is basically what later generations know.
——Yingbo rebelled, Taizu personally conquered;
——Liu Ya on the way, and his life will not be long.
Going up to the sky, that is to say, a small number of fans know: before the royal conquest, Liu Bang originally planned to send the prince Liu Ying to fight against the rebellion;
After being resolutely stopped by the Empress Dowager Lu, Liu Bang, who was over sixty years old and sick and bedridden, had no choice but to cursing and cursing.
But few people know: in Huainan Wang Yingbu's rebellion, a clan member of Liu Han died;
The family member of Liu Han who died under the knife of Yingbu was the cousin of Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang: King Jing Liu Jia.
Almost just a few days after Yingbo raised his troops, King Liu Jia of Jing, whose territory was adjacent to Huainan Kingdom from east to west, died under Yingbo's knife.
When the Yingbo Rebellion was settled, the Huainan Kingdom, which originally belonged to Yingbo, was granted by Liu Bang to his seventh son: Liu Chang.
That's right;
It was Liu Chang, the Li Wang of Huainan, who was "starved to death" by Emperor Taizong Xiaowen decades ago and made that nursery rhyme.
However, the death of King Jing Liu Jia made Taizu Liu Bang very troubled.
——It was Liu Bang's helpless move to make Liu Jia the King of Jing;
As long as there are closer direct relatives, Liu Bang will not make a distant cousin of Liu Jia a clan vassal of the Han family.
As a result, even Liu Jia died under King Jing's tenure, and the Liu family, who was already underpopulated, only became more stretched.
How to do it?
If you want to replace princes with different surnames with clan princes, but you don't have enough relatives, what should you do?
In the end, Liu Bang, who really couldn't think of any other way, could only send his elder brother, Liu Bi, the son of Daiqing King Liu Xi who had fled the country on the northern border, to Jingdi.
At this time, the state of Jing became the state of Wu;
Liu Bi, also became Wu Wang Liu Bi.
Then last year, Liu Bi set off the Wu Chu Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, which affected most of the Han Dynasty, but was finally put down by Taiwei Zhou Yafu in March, and Liu Bi himself died on the way to escape.
The 53 cities in the three counties of Wudi that once belonged to Liu Bi were dismembered into two parts by the court.
The two prefectures of Kuaiji and Yuzhang, which originally belonged to the state of Wu, were completely abolished as prefectures and counties, and have since been brought under the jurisdiction of Chang'an Chaotang;
And Guangling County, where the Wudu Guangling City is located, became Liu Fei's entire fiefdom, and was named: Jiangdu Kingdom...
"Since the Han Dynasty, the three counties of Wu State have been famous all over the world for the salt of Kuaiji and the copper of Yuzhang;"
"However, Fifth Brother's Jiangdu Kingdom has only won Guangling County, the most useless of the three counties in Wudi..."
"There is no salt and money, and it is still second."
"It's just that the two counties of Kuaiji and Yuzhang are placed in the middle. Even if the fifth brother wants to lead his troops to the south and attack Baiyue in the south of Lingnan, it will be..."
"Ugh······"
Thinking so, all the brothers turned their sympathetic gazes to rest for a moment on Liu Feiru's dispirited face;
It was also until this time that Liu Pengzu, the seventh child who had been sitting in the banquet with a smile on his face, finally answered Liu Fa's question for Liu Sheng.
"The country of Changsha is small and weak, and it is located in a barren land in the south;"
"Not to mention wet miasma and swamps, more than half of the country is occupied by thousand-year-old forests."
"But even so, the Changsha Kingdom still has to shoulder the responsibility of 'South Commandment of Baiyue' and undertake huge military expenditures in order to maintain sufficient military strength to resist Zhao Tuo and Baiyue."
"Ugh······"
"—Obviously a very weak and poor Changsha country, but it has to shoulder such a heavy burden;"
"Sixth brother is in Changsha country, I'm afraid it's not easy..."
As he said that, Liu Pengzu looked a little sympathetic, but he didn't move away from Liu Fa for a moment.
——From the moment Liu Fa walked to the center of the hall and danced to the drums, everyone in the hall had their eyes fixed on Liu Fa.
After Liu Pengzu's 'reminder' from his elder brother, Liu Sheng looked at Liu Fa with more and more sympathy.
The dignified clan and princes, and today's parents and children, were sealed off to that place in Changsha where birds don't shit;
Even if he returned to Chang'an, he still had to "present a dance" for his younger brother in front of his brothers.
The dignified clan princes, but like a dancer, dance their bodies to the melody...
"Brother Wang is sick~"
"Dancing is not good~"
The brief silence was interrupted by a childish whisper;
After everyone followed the prestige, they saw that Xiao Shi, who was not yet five years old—Jiaoxi King Liu Zhi, had been covered by his mother, Mrs. Wang.
Holding her son back into her arms, Mrs. Wang did not forget to smile apologetically and bow slightly to Liu Sheng.
But Mrs. Wang's 'apology', Liu Sheng did not notice.
——Liu Sheng's attention has been completely concentrated on the sixth brother, Liu Fa, who is twisting his body in a strange dancing posture in the center of the hall.
In the middle of the hall, Liu Fa showed a slight smile, imitating the dancing posture he had seen in his memory, twisting his body clumsily;
If it's just clumsiness, it's no big deal.
After all, among the brothers, no one would really regard Liu Fa, the sixth child, as a dancer who is proficient in dancing.
Just like in later generations, the leader "singed a song" when the team was built: Liu Fa's dance, the meaning will be obtained.
What really surprised the brothers and felt that Liu Fa's "dancing posture was weird" was that Liu Fa would stop for a short time almost every time he made a movement.
Or, look down at your feet;
Or, carefully grabbing the sleeves;
Or, it was the 'shocked' lifting of the hem of the robe.
Even when he raised his arm, Liu Fa didn't dare to straighten his arm, but first carefully bent his arm to the limit, then clamped his armpit, and raised his hand close to his cheek.
It's as if there are countless filthy objects or obstacles around Liu Fa. Every time Liu Fa moves his body, he has to stop and take a look, as if he is afraid of bumping into something.
Such a weird behavior naturally made everyone in the hall inexplicably puzzled;
Not long after, Liu Sheng gently raised his hand, and the sound of drums and music in the hall stopped.
As the music dissipated, Liu Fazi also stopped dancing, and was about to step forward, but Liu Sheng stood up first.
"Six Brothers..."
"But what's wrong?"
Full of confusion, Liu Sheng did not forget to stretch out his hand and sweep the area where Liu Fa just danced;
That secretive look seemed to be asking Liu Fa: Is there anything around Brother Six that we can't see?
But when Liu Fa heard the words, he straightened his back without thinking, and then bowed his hands to Liu Shengshen.
After standing up straight, Liu Fa's face was filled with a slow apology...
"Please forgive me, Your Highness."
"My country is too small, even to the point where I can't turn my body around in the country..."
···
"Taizu Gao Emperor System: After the prince is enfeoffed as a clan vassal, he must never leave the feudal country without the emperor's edict."
"So, after I was granted the title of King of Changsha and the capital of the feudal kingdom, Xiang County, in order not to accidentally let my body walk out of my feudal kingdom when turning around, I could only carefully grab the sleeves and lift the hem of the robe."
"It has become a habit after a long time, and I haven't changed it for a while;"
"Being so disrespectful in front of His Highness and brothers is really my fault..."
···
···
······
After Liu Fa's "sincere words" confessed his guilt, the side hall of the Crown Prince's womb fell into a long silence.
All the brothers, including the seventh Liu Pengzu, the tenth Liu Zhi, and even Mrs. Wang who accompanied their son, cast uneasy eyes on Liu Sheng's face with mixed emotions.
What did Liu Fa mean by these words?
——The country is small and narrow, not enough to maneuver around!
——Chen's country is too small, so small that I can't guarantee that when I turn around, I won't let my body parts step out of the border!
Liu Fa was using this method to tactfully express his grievances to Liu Sheng.
This is the first time in the past ten years that Liu Fa, a good man, has taken the initiative to fight for himself.
And the object of the fight is Liu Fa's younger brother, the current crown prince: Liu Sheng...
"Brother Six, you have worked so hard...
I don't know how long it took before Liu Sheng finally recovered from his astonishment;
With a soft voice, everyone in the hall lowered their heads in unison;
In the end, Liu Sheng shook his head and smiled, then stepped forward, took Liu Fa's arm, and sat down on the other side of him.
"The situation in Changsha, brother, is well understood."
"It's just that you have forced brother to such a point—to the point where even if you want to talk about it, you have to pretend to be dancing..."
"Hi······"
···
"From now on, if you have anything to say, brother just say it."
"It's a bit unreasonable for the dignified clan and princes to perform dances to add to the fun."
"If it spreads out, I'm afraid some people will say that it's me, the younger brother, who bullies my elder brother with the power of the prince..."
···
"Sixth brother, don't worry about the country's affairs."
"Go to Shanglin tomorrow, all my brothers, let's have a good hunt."
"When I return to Chang'an, I will ask my father to add some land to the Changsha Kingdom."
"—Don't worry, Sixth Brother;"
"My younger brother will never let my father know that this was requested by the sixth brother."
"My younger brother will tell my father: Brother Six is suffering in Changsha, and my younger brother really can't bear it..."
(End of this chapter)
Liu Sheng patted his chest and said, "I'll go and fix Uncle Tian", which made Liu Yu smile, and hurriedly raised the wine cup, and invited Liu Sheng to have a drink.
After warming the wine, Liu Yu showed a little enjoyment on his face. I don't know if the wine is really delicious, or Liu Yu has already begun to look forward to tomorrow's hunting.
When the brothers lowered their heads and fell into silence with smiles on their faces, the seventh brother Liu Pengzu, who was sandwiched between the sixth child Liu Fa and the eighth child Liu Duan, also raised his wine companion at the right time and invited Liu Yuyao for a drink with a smile .
"It's only been a little over a year, but fourth brother's tongue has improved a lot?"
As soon as this remark came out, Liu Yu only smiled even more. Instead of being unhappy because Liu Pengzu mentioned this matter, he cast his grateful eyes on Liu Sheng who was not far away from him again.
"Hi······"
"It was back then, His Highness supported this method;"

"In the past few years, these few stones have been held in the mouth of the widow for three or two hours every day."
"——After a long time, it has become a habit;"

Carefully hiding those precious stones back in his bosom, he raised his head and forced a smile at his brothers pretending to be relaxed.
Seeing Liu Yu being so calm and breezy, the brothers naturally smiled.
Yes, I am happy for Liu Yu;
Some are just polite, pretending to be happy for Liu Yu.
Only Liu Sheng, after Liu Yu's pretendingly relaxed narration, instantly saw through the bitterness in Liu Yu's eyes;
In addition, looking at Liu Yu's gaze, there was also a little sympathy, and even though he tried his best to conceal it, he still couldn't get rid of it.
——Same as "the fourth son of the emperor is good at hunting", the fourth son of the emperor is stupid, and it is also well known in Chang'an.
But what most people don't know is: the fourth son of the current emperor, Liu Yu, who has just been named King of Lu for less than two years, is actually born with a stutter.
The old saying is good: don't care what the problem is, if you are born with it, there is mostly no cure;
Even if it can be cured, it is basically extremely difficult to cure, and it is extremely difficult to cure it in a short time.
Liu Yu's natural stuttering problem is obviously also listed here...
"Fourth brother said it was easy, but in secret, I don't know how much he has suffered..."
"Especially the place where the fourth brother was awarded the title is the place where ethics and education flourished in the past [-] years: Ludi..."
"Ah~"
"Poor life..."
···
"All my brothers are hard-working people..."
Thinking like this, Liu Sheng let out another long sigh, and cast his eyes on everyone in the banquet in sequence.
——Boss Liu Rong, needless to say: just over a month ago, the majestic eldest son of the current emperor, the king of Linjiang, was imprisoned in the Lieutenant's Mansion for trumped-up charges, and he was almost on the verge of death;
The second child, Liu De, was supposed to be the right and left arm of the prince and the most trustworthy sibling, but because of his mother, Li Ji, he basically lost everything he should have had.
Both brothers have lost their mothers;
And the two's half-brother: Liu Yu, the third child, died in a feudal country that he was not familiar with: Changshan before he became an adult...

The fourth brother, Liu Yu, was born with a stutter, and he was sent to Ludi, where ethics prevails and rotten Confucianism is everywhere;
Although Liu Yu didn't say it, and there is a high probability that he won't mention it, Liu Sheng is very sure: in the past year or so, Liu Yu's stuttering problem has caused many pretentious rotten scholars to catch the "Kuangzheng Monarch" Opportunity······
The fifth elder brother, Liu Fei, looks like an old man, laughing and joking all day long, but deep down, Liu Fei also has his own lofty ideals.
But Liu Fei's final feudal state was in the eastern coastal area where the Xiongnu could not be touched in the north and Baiyue could not be seen in the south: Jiangdu.
If there is no accident, Liu Fei will never have the opportunity to ride a horse to fight again in his life;
The lofty aspirations that belonged exclusively to the passionate youth will surely become a regret that Liu Fei will never be able to achieve in his entire life...
Turn your head and look to your right hand side;
The first thing that catches the eye is Liu Fa, the sixth brother sitting beside him.
But even Liu Fa...
"Your highness, your highness invited a banquet, and I hurried out, so I really didn't have time to prepare gifts;"
"Brothers, if you are in a good mood, why don't you let me perform a dance, and the right is to add to the fun..."
Almost at the same time Liu Sheng turned his head and turned his gaze to him, Liu Fa, who was already the king of Changsha, hurriedly stood up from his seat.
Even the self-proclaimed "widow" was changed to "chen" by Liu Fa in a humble way;
After putting forward the request of "presenting a dance", Liu Fa stood there even more awkwardly, waiting for his younger brother - the current prince and prince: Liu Sheng's permission...
"Sixth brother's kindness, I really have no reason to refuse;"
"The king of Changsha can do as he pleases."
···
If it is said that at this moment, the nine brothers gathered in the side hall of the Crown Prince's Palace are all hard-fated people without exception, then the most miserable one among them is undoubtedly the one who has become a clan prince, but still proposes to be brothers." Liu Fa, the king of Changsha who performed a dance.
Where is the pain?
嘿;
The three words 'Changsha King' alone are already an unbearable pain for most people...
"I don't know how the sixth brother has lived in Changsha these years?"
"It is said that in the past few years, Zhao Tuo of Nanyue was not very safe;"
"—At the beginning of last year, Liu Bi, Liu Wu and other thieves raised their troops, and Zhao Tuo even secretly dispatched the South Vietnamese army to assist Liu Bi."
"That is to say, after the rebellion was put down, Liu Bi, Liu Wu and other thieves were all crowned heads, so that Baiyue in the south of Lingnan was more peaceful."
"I just don't know: This time, how many years will Zhao Tuo, the 'King of Nanyue' of my Han family, be able to live in peace?"
While Liu Sheng was speaking, Liu Fa had already walked forward on his own, between the east and west seats, dancing his body with the sound of Sesheng;
And the moment Liu Sheng mentioned Lingnan, especially the words "Nanyue Zhao Tuo", Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu who was sitting next to Liu Sheng's left, suddenly became a little excited!
But after jumping for joy for a short time, Liu Fei didn't know what he thought of, so he just sighed to himself, and then lowered his head.
Regarding Liu Fei's attitude, the brothers could only lower their heads with a sneer and didn't say much.
——Liu Fei's Jiangdu State was indeed the Wu State that once belonged to Liu Bi.
But the current Jiangdu State does not include the entire territory of the former Wu State.
At the beginning of the founding of Liu Han, the Han family did not even have Wu;
Or it should be said that the State of Wu at that time was also called: State of Jing.
In the fifth year of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty (202 BC), Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, killed himself in Wujiang, unified the world, and the world belonged to Han.
Later, Liu Bang, Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty, divided the Jingchu land that once belonged to Xiang Yu into Jing and Chu.
The state of Chu was granted by Liu Bang to his only younger brother, the grandfather of King Liu Wu of Chu: Liu Jiao, King of Chu Yuan.
As for the country of Jing, Liu Bang sealed it to a distant relative: cousin Liu Jia.
Six years later, at the end of the 11th year of Emperor Taizu Gao (196 BC), the last prince with a different surname in Liu Han Sheji: Huainan Wang Yingbu (Tattoo) rebelled.
In order to quell the rebellion, Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang dragged his sick body and marched in person at the age of 62;
Although in the end, Liu Bang quelled the rebellion without accident, but a stray arrow shot from nowhere made the wise and mighty Taizu Emperor Gao completely lose the last remaining vitality.
Soon after the rebellion was put down, that is, in the 12th year of Emperor Taizu Gao (195 BC), Taizu Liu Bang died in Changle Palace.
Prince Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, and Liu Han Sheji entered the 15-year period of "Empress Dowager Lv in power".
Speaking of Huainan Wang Yingbu's rebellion, this is basically what later generations know.
——Yingbo rebelled, Taizu personally conquered;
——Liu Ya on the way, and his life will not be long.
Going up to the sky, that is to say, a small number of fans know: before the royal conquest, Liu Bang originally planned to send the prince Liu Ying to fight against the rebellion;
After being resolutely stopped by the Empress Dowager Lu, Liu Bang, who was over sixty years old and sick and bedridden, had no choice but to cursing and cursing.
But few people know: in Huainan Wang Yingbu's rebellion, a clan member of Liu Han died;
The family member of Liu Han who died under the knife of Yingbu was the cousin of Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang: King Jing Liu Jia.
Almost just a few days after Yingbo raised his troops, King Liu Jia of Jing, whose territory was adjacent to Huainan Kingdom from east to west, died under Yingbo's knife.
When the Yingbo Rebellion was settled, the Huainan Kingdom, which originally belonged to Yingbo, was granted by Liu Bang to his seventh son: Liu Chang.
That's right;
It was Liu Chang, the Li Wang of Huainan, who was "starved to death" by Emperor Taizong Xiaowen decades ago and made that nursery rhyme.
However, the death of King Jing Liu Jia made Taizu Liu Bang very troubled.
——It was Liu Bang's helpless move to make Liu Jia the King of Jing;
As long as there are closer direct relatives, Liu Bang will not make a distant cousin of Liu Jia a clan vassal of the Han family.
As a result, even Liu Jia died under King Jing's tenure, and the Liu family, who was already underpopulated, only became more stretched.
How to do it?
If you want to replace princes with different surnames with clan princes, but you don't have enough relatives, what should you do?
In the end, Liu Bang, who really couldn't think of any other way, could only send his elder brother, Liu Bi, the son of Daiqing King Liu Xi who had fled the country on the northern border, to Jingdi.
At this time, the state of Jing became the state of Wu;
Liu Bi, also became Wu Wang Liu Bi.
Then last year, Liu Bi set off the Wu Chu Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, which affected most of the Han Dynasty, but was finally put down by Taiwei Zhou Yafu in March, and Liu Bi himself died on the way to escape.
The 53 cities in the three counties of Wudi that once belonged to Liu Bi were dismembered into two parts by the court.
The two prefectures of Kuaiji and Yuzhang, which originally belonged to the state of Wu, were completely abolished as prefectures and counties, and have since been brought under the jurisdiction of Chang'an Chaotang;
And Guangling County, where the Wudu Guangling City is located, became Liu Fei's entire fiefdom, and was named: Jiangdu Kingdom...
"Since the Han Dynasty, the three counties of Wu State have been famous all over the world for the salt of Kuaiji and the copper of Yuzhang;"
"However, Fifth Brother's Jiangdu Kingdom has only won Guangling County, the most useless of the three counties in Wudi..."
"There is no salt and money, and it is still second."
"It's just that the two counties of Kuaiji and Yuzhang are placed in the middle. Even if the fifth brother wants to lead his troops to the south and attack Baiyue in the south of Lingnan, it will be..."
"Ugh······"
Thinking so, all the brothers turned their sympathetic gazes to rest for a moment on Liu Feiru's dispirited face;
It was also until this time that Liu Pengzu, the seventh child who had been sitting in the banquet with a smile on his face, finally answered Liu Fa's question for Liu Sheng.
"The country of Changsha is small and weak, and it is located in a barren land in the south;"
"Not to mention wet miasma and swamps, more than half of the country is occupied by thousand-year-old forests."
"But even so, the Changsha Kingdom still has to shoulder the responsibility of 'South Commandment of Baiyue' and undertake huge military expenditures in order to maintain sufficient military strength to resist Zhao Tuo and Baiyue."
"Ugh······"
"—Obviously a very weak and poor Changsha country, but it has to shoulder such a heavy burden;"
"Sixth brother is in Changsha country, I'm afraid it's not easy..."
As he said that, Liu Pengzu looked a little sympathetic, but he didn't move away from Liu Fa for a moment.
——From the moment Liu Fa walked to the center of the hall and danced to the drums, everyone in the hall had their eyes fixed on Liu Fa.
After Liu Pengzu's 'reminder' from his elder brother, Liu Sheng looked at Liu Fa with more and more sympathy.
The dignified clan and princes, and today's parents and children, were sealed off to that place in Changsha where birds don't shit;
Even if he returned to Chang'an, he still had to "present a dance" for his younger brother in front of his brothers.
The dignified clan princes, but like a dancer, dance their bodies to the melody...
"Brother Wang is sick~"
"Dancing is not good~"
The brief silence was interrupted by a childish whisper;
After everyone followed the prestige, they saw that Xiao Shi, who was not yet five years old—Jiaoxi King Liu Zhi, had been covered by his mother, Mrs. Wang.
Holding her son back into her arms, Mrs. Wang did not forget to smile apologetically and bow slightly to Liu Sheng.
But Mrs. Wang's 'apology', Liu Sheng did not notice.
——Liu Sheng's attention has been completely concentrated on the sixth brother, Liu Fa, who is twisting his body in a strange dancing posture in the center of the hall.
In the middle of the hall, Liu Fa showed a slight smile, imitating the dancing posture he had seen in his memory, twisting his body clumsily;
If it's just clumsiness, it's no big deal.
After all, among the brothers, no one would really regard Liu Fa, the sixth child, as a dancer who is proficient in dancing.
Just like in later generations, the leader "singed a song" when the team was built: Liu Fa's dance, the meaning will be obtained.
What really surprised the brothers and felt that Liu Fa's "dancing posture was weird" was that Liu Fa would stop for a short time almost every time he made a movement.
Or, look down at your feet;
Or, carefully grabbing the sleeves;
Or, it was the 'shocked' lifting of the hem of the robe.
Even when he raised his arm, Liu Fa didn't dare to straighten his arm, but first carefully bent his arm to the limit, then clamped his armpit, and raised his hand close to his cheek.
It's as if there are countless filthy objects or obstacles around Liu Fa. Every time Liu Fa moves his body, he has to stop and take a look, as if he is afraid of bumping into something.
Such a weird behavior naturally made everyone in the hall inexplicably puzzled;
Not long after, Liu Sheng gently raised his hand, and the sound of drums and music in the hall stopped.
As the music dissipated, Liu Fazi also stopped dancing, and was about to step forward, but Liu Sheng stood up first.
"Six Brothers..."
"But what's wrong?"
Full of confusion, Liu Sheng did not forget to stretch out his hand and sweep the area where Liu Fa just danced;
That secretive look seemed to be asking Liu Fa: Is there anything around Brother Six that we can't see?
But when Liu Fa heard the words, he straightened his back without thinking, and then bowed his hands to Liu Shengshen.
After standing up straight, Liu Fa's face was filled with a slow apology...
"Please forgive me, Your Highness."
"My country is too small, even to the point where I can't turn my body around in the country..."
···
"Taizu Gao Emperor System: After the prince is enfeoffed as a clan vassal, he must never leave the feudal country without the emperor's edict."
"So, after I was granted the title of King of Changsha and the capital of the feudal kingdom, Xiang County, in order not to accidentally let my body walk out of my feudal kingdom when turning around, I could only carefully grab the sleeves and lift the hem of the robe."
"It has become a habit after a long time, and I haven't changed it for a while;"
"Being so disrespectful in front of His Highness and brothers is really my fault..."
···
···
······
After Liu Fa's "sincere words" confessed his guilt, the side hall of the Crown Prince's womb fell into a long silence.
All the brothers, including the seventh Liu Pengzu, the tenth Liu Zhi, and even Mrs. Wang who accompanied their son, cast uneasy eyes on Liu Sheng's face with mixed emotions.
What did Liu Fa mean by these words?
——The country is small and narrow, not enough to maneuver around!
——Chen's country is too small, so small that I can't guarantee that when I turn around, I won't let my body parts step out of the border!
Liu Fa was using this method to tactfully express his grievances to Liu Sheng.
This is the first time in the past ten years that Liu Fa, a good man, has taken the initiative to fight for himself.
And the object of the fight is Liu Fa's younger brother, the current crown prince: Liu Sheng...
"Brother Six, you have worked so hard...
I don't know how long it took before Liu Sheng finally recovered from his astonishment;
With a soft voice, everyone in the hall lowered their heads in unison;
In the end, Liu Sheng shook his head and smiled, then stepped forward, took Liu Fa's arm, and sat down on the other side of him.
"The situation in Changsha, brother, is well understood."
"It's just that you have forced brother to such a point—to the point where even if you want to talk about it, you have to pretend to be dancing..."
"Hi······"
···
"From now on, if you have anything to say, brother just say it."
"It's a bit unreasonable for the dignified clan and princes to perform dances to add to the fun."
"If it spreads out, I'm afraid some people will say that it's me, the younger brother, who bullies my elder brother with the power of the prince..."
···
"Sixth brother, don't worry about the country's affairs."
"Go to Shanglin tomorrow, all my brothers, let's have a good hunt."
"When I return to Chang'an, I will ask my father to add some land to the Changsha Kingdom."
"—Don't worry, Sixth Brother;"
"My younger brother will never let my father know that this was requested by the sixth brother."
"My younger brother will tell my father: Brother Six is suffering in Changsha, and my younger brother really can't bear it..."
