Chapter 191 Unbearable

Not only Liu Bang felt that Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others had made a mistake.

Even the First Emperor felt that these people were lame.

He said to Fusu: "To be able to stand firm in the chaotic current situation, secure the throne, and create the rule of Wenjing, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty must not be a weak person. As an emperor, if he wants to do something, he must Benevolence within must not just be summed up by the word benevolence.”

Fusu cupped his hands as a gift and said, "You should remember this."

Wuyou smiled and said, "Let's see what this Han Wen Emperor did. At that time, Han Wen Emperor was already the acting king, and he and Bo Ji were safe and sound in the state of Dai. Suddenly, envoys from Chang'an came to tell him Why should he be welcomed as emperor? Can he believe it?"

"A person is sitting at home, and the throne comes from the sky. Even if it is a pie falling from the sky, does it happen that the delicious one falls into his mouth? Liu Heng expressed doubts about this, and Bo Ji was not at ease. She was afraid that it was a trap. , Liu Heng will probably die if he goes, no matter what, he will not be allowed to go."

"If you were careless or greedy, you might have gone as soon as you heard that you wanted to be the emperor. But Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty was a cautious man and he could really hold his anger. He first asked his uncle Bo Zhao to go to Chang'an City to inquire about the news and find out what happened. What happened? After Bo Zhao went there, he found Zhou Bo and asked him. After finding out the truth, he went back and told Liu Heng. But Liu Heng was still a little worried, so he did another divination and the predictions were quite good, so he set off. Go to Chang'an."

"When Liu Heng went there, he only brought less than ten people from Dai's side. He was very cautious along the way, for fear of making any mistakes. When they arrived near the Wei Bridge not far from Chang'an, Liu Heng was afraid that something might happen. Something unexpected happened, and I sent someone to explore the truth."

"At this time, Zhou Bo and others sent the young emperor out of the palace and rushed to pick up Liu Heng."

"Who doesn't want the power of the dragon? They all want to be the first to approach the new emperor. Zhou Bo is the strongest. He gets to Liu Heng first. In order to show that he is different from others, he also wants to discuss things with Liu Heng in private. .”

"When he doesn't know much about the situation in Chang'an City, and although he can ascend the throne, he has no idea what will happen in the future, Liu Heng must not contact any minister in private. This kind of thing is very detrimental to Liu Heng."

"But Liu Heng cannot say this. He is always gentle and elegant, how can he be shameless to others? At this time, the subordinates who followed him came into play. Liu Heng's confidant Song Chang directly criticized Zhou Bo, roughly What I mean is that if you are discussing business matters, then there is nothing you cannot say to others, and there is no need to say it in private, just say it openly. If you are discussing private matters, the king has no private matters."

"Look, how fair and aboveboard these words are, it makes Zhou Bo's face turn red."

Wuyou also laughed when he said this: "Have you seen that our Emperor Hanwen has always been a good person, and the bad people have been done by others? Isn't it Bailian's behavior?"

"Later, when Liu Heng entered the palace from Prince Dai's Mansion, he was stopped by the guards at the entrance of the palace. What should he do if he couldn't get in? It was Zhou Bo who reprimanded the guards before inviting him into Weiyang Palace. On the surface, it was Zhou Bo supports Liu Heng, but his behavior is not the same in Liu Heng's heart."

"Oh, I am a great emperor and can't enter the palace. The guards don't recognize me. You, a minister, come over and let me go after just a few words. What does this mean? It means that the defense power of the palace and even the defense power of Chang'an City are all under your control, Zhou Bo. I’m holding it in my hand. If you want to establish me now, then if you say something wrong later and you want to destroy me, won’t I just sit back and wait for death?”

Under the canopy, many people nodded.

"Absolutely, the fairy is right. Zhou Bo's move really makes people suspicious. If you are more suspicious, you will think that this is his way to show off to the new emperor."

Some people were uneducated and illiterate. They had not thought of this case before. After Wuyou finished speaking, they suddenly realized: "Isn't that right? If we were here, we would be at the mercy of others." And were suppressed. The sitting Sun Wukong was fascinated.

He was devoted to cultivating Taoism, learning spells and kung fu, and had never learned the art of strategizing. When he heard this today, he was both novel and shocked. He was thinking, it turns out that a person's strength is not only the force of force, but also the brain. If If you are smart enough, even if you don't have such powerful force, you may still be invincible.

"Liu Heng became suspicious, and on the night he entered the palace, he appointed Song Chang as General Wei to command the northern and southern armies, and Zhang Wu as the Palace Supervisor, responsible for the security of the palace. In this way, the security affairs of Chang'an City and Weiyang Palace were tightly controlled. Hold it firmly in your own hands."

"However, Liu Heng's throne is not yet secure at this time. He got the throne too easily. Many people think that he made a big mistake. Some people think that he has succeeded in picking peaches. As for his His ability was not recognized. At this time, Liu Heng could not be radical and had to slowly stabilize the courtiers. He began to use both kindness and power, granting titles to meritorious officials, clans, and groups of meritorious officials, and also gave rewards to the common people..."

"The purpose of rewarding heroes and clans is to show favor and stabilize the government. To reward the people is to market yourself. This move is to tell the people that the emperor has changed. He, Liu Heng, has become the emperor, and he is also a benevolent person. emperor."

"Look, what a wonderful move he made. As long as he takes advantage of him, he has recognized his orthodox status as the emperor. He will never be entangled in this matter in the future."

"Moreover, there is another incident that shows that Liu Heng is not an innocent, kind and gentle person. When he was the king, he had a queen and gave birth to four sons. We all know that when Empress Lu was in power, those of the Liu family The queens that princes marry are all from the Lu family, and Liu Heng is no exception. After he ascended the throne, his wife and four sons all died..."

"Even if there was an accident or illness, not all five people would die at the same time. It can be guessed that Liu Heng did this cruelly in order to express his position that he had nothing to do with the Lu family, to show his determination to overthrow Lu, and to win over the clan. His legitimate wife and legitimate son are dead."

Many people took a breath when they heard this.

"Killing your wife and children, you really have a dark heart to be the emperor."

"But Liu Heng was a very good emperor. He did everything perfectly. He had a great reputation among the people and the court. There is no record of how the deceased legitimate wife and legitimate son died."

"When Liu Heng secures the throne, it will have to be liquidated. But instead of killing the heroes like Liu Bang, they squeeze you out and let you resign yourself, just like Zhou Bo and Chen Ping. Both of them are He was the great hero who supported his rise to power. After he ascended the throne, he showed favor and made Zhou Bo the prime minister on the right and Chen Ping the prime minister on the left. As a result, these two people did not like each other."

"Zhou Bo felt that he had made great contributions and became increasingly arrogant, but Chen Ping was probably unwilling to do so. In the end, Zhou Bo resigned and Chen Ping became the prime minister. After Chen Ping's death, Zhou Bo was made prime minister again, but he only became the prime minister within a few months. After he was dismissed, someone reported Zhou Bo for treason, which frightened Zhou Bo. He hurriedly went to beg Empress Dowager Bo. Empress Dowager Bo interceded and verified that there was no such thing, so Zhou Bo was spared. But he was already frightened, and only left Please be obedient."

"There is another thing about Liu Heng's White Lotus, and that is Bo Zhao's suicide. Bo Zhao relied on his nephew to be the emperor, placed cronies everywhere, acted even more arrogantly, and lived extravagantly. Gradually, Liu Heng became Very dissatisfied with him."

"But Bo Zhao didn't reflect on himself and Liu Heng ignored him. He went even further and even went so far as to kill the minister without permission. How could Liu Heng still endure it? But he couldn't have blood on his hands. He asked the courtiers to drink with Bo Zhao and persuade him to commit suicide. How could Bo Zhao be willing? Who is willing to die before the good days have passed? At this point, what did our Emperor Wen of Han do?"

Wuyou laughed for a while before continuing: "I have to say that Emperor Wen of Han had really bad ideas. Seeing that Bo Zhao refused to die, he asked the ministers to mourn for him. In the end, Bo Zhao had to commit suicide after crying."

"You see, our white lotus is a real white lotus. People can't bear to kill my uncle, so they just do it... This is like some people saying that I can't bear to watch you die. Then I close my eyes and can't see you. Just die."
