The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 508: My father is so unreasonable this time

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty glanced at Liu Huan and said, "You have a good plan."

"He just solved the crisis for me, and now you want me to kill the donkey?"

Liu Huan said nervously: "Father, son, minister... son, minister."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty waved his hand and said: "Go and make arrangements."

what?
Liu Huan was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty meant by this, but he still said: "Okay! I will make arrangements now!"

He was so excited!
If the previously foolish policies were pushed to Weining, it goes without saying that Weining would definitely become the target of public criticism, and everyone in the world would probably criticize Weining with words and writings.

What credibility did Weining have at that time?

Liu Huan went to summon the three senior officials. When he said that the previous policy of raising taxes was a decision made by Weining, he asked the three provinces to tell the world.

The three senior officials were stunned.

You...you guys are so cruel!

In the court today, if the Crown Prince hadn't helped you resolve the crisis, how could you be so comfortable now?
The results of it?
Prince Wei solved the crisis for you, but you put the blame on him. How can this despicable and shameless method still look royal?

But it doesn't matter. Although the three senior officials sympathize with Weining, they will still carry out the orders.

They don't care so much, as long as they can sit in this position with peace of mind, everything will be easy.

……

Three days later, the imperial court's policy was transferred to the local government, and the news also reached the East Palace.

Qin Ziyu had already left Chang'an with Liu Ju and headed northwest. Only Weining was left in Nuo Da's East Palace.

Weining's face twitched slightly. When he heard that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Liu Huan poured all the dirty water on him, he was angry at first, but suddenly he felt nothing at all.

He had no intention of easing his relationship with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He just accepted what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did and there was nothing wrong with it.

Qi Bin is still secretly sending letters to Weining, and now there are several leaders of the Forbidden Army secretly favoring Weining.

These things are dangerous and can only be done in secret.

Weining knew in his heart that it would not be long before he would confront Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and now he was patiently making plans in secret.

There are too many imperial guards in Weiyang Palace, but there are not many imperial guards who secretly favor Wei Ning. This is still not safe.

Weining could only continue to endure it. It didn't matter how his reputation was spread outside. His core interests were not there.

But what surprised Weining was that there didn't seem to be any ferment among the people, and no people scolded him.

……

Weiyang Palace.

The three high-ranking officials anxiously approached Liu Huan, clasped their fists and said, "I'll wait for you to see His Highness the King of Jiaodong."

Liu Huan was in a good mood and said with a smile, "What do you want, sir?"

Come to think of it, people among the people are now criticizing Weining for being stupid, which can be regarded as a huge suppression of his political status.

So how could Liu Huan be unhappy? One thing would go down, another would go up, and in the end his reputation would become higher and higher.

But what shocked Liu Huan was that the three high-ranking officials did not say that Weining's reputation among the people was stupid. Instead, the people among the people began to criticize Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for his unkindness and unrighteousness.

Liu Huan was shocked. He looked at the three senior officials in confusion and asked, "Why?"

Why is this so?

"Your Highness, there are too many scholars among the people who want to overturn the verdict of Prince Wei." "Through various comparisons of details, they found out that Prince Wei is actually no longer able to govern and issue orders."

After all, Wei Ning's impression among the people was really good before. He had done so many meritorious deeds, and now he was still the crown prince. How could he do such a foolish thing?
That can only explain one reason: Weining was wrongly accused.

This group of scholars are all staunch supporters of Weining. Since the death of Dade, they have been looking for ways to take revenge on Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This time they have waited for the opportunity.

Of course they would write about it, and because their words were widely spread among the people, it eventually led to the current situation. Instead of being stigmatized, many people were trying to defend Weining.

And he cursed Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Liu Huan severely.

Especially Liu Huan, most folk scholars believe that Liu Huan did these things. Although it is speculation, it is well-founded.

For a time, Liu Huan was notorious.

Liu Huan never expected this result, and shouted angrily: "These unruly people are stupid!"

"Those scholars...should be killed!"

Who would have thought that it would be so easy to steal the chicken but lose the rice?
Chen Hongrun, the secretary-general of the three provinces, is a relative of Liu Huan and the only Chen family member to survive the Chen Ajiao case.

Just this year, Liu Huan was promoted to Zhongshu Province through Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and it had not been three months.

Liu Huan felt that his power as a civil servant in the outer court was too weak, so he had to find a political supporter, so he chose the incompetent Chen Hongrun.

Although this relative is seven or eight generations apart, there are not many people Liu Huan can use.

"Understood, let's go!"

"Here!"

Chen Hongrun left Qilin Hall and walked towards Zhongshu Province with his hands behind his back.

Because he and Chen Ajiao were far apart in generations and their relationship was weak, he had always served as a minor official in the local area. Since Liu Huan helped Emperor Wu of Han to govern, he was promoted very quickly.

However, this person likes to make money very much, and he was afraid of poverty before.

Wei Ning ordered people in the East Palace to keep sending money to Chen Hongrun, but Chen Hongrun refused.

It's true that he likes wealth, but he doesn't dare to ask for Weining's wealth.

The status he has today is all given by Liu Huan. Once Liu Huan doubts himself, the consequences will be disastrous, so of course he cannot have anything to do with Weining.

Weining naturally didn't want to deal with this Prime Minister Zhongshu. He had no interests involved, so why bother making trouble.

But a few days ago, Qi Bin secretly informed Wei Ning about the situation of the three senior officials. The minister and his subordinates were not on good terms. It stands to reason that they would look down on Chen Hongrun, an official who entered the Zhongshu through nepotism. But to Wei Ning's surprise, However, Shangshu and Zhongshu respected this person quite a bit.

Because of his relationship with Liu Huan?

Certainly not!

The only explanation is that Chen Hongrun is very scheming. He was able to escape safely from the Chen Ajiao case and still maintain his official position. This shows that his sense of smell is very sensitive.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, Wei Ning cannot let such a person continue to be an official in Zhongshu.

Weining was worried.

He wants the court to be filled with a group of inactive officials, who can easily detect his intentions.

Just in case, Weining must eliminate this risk.

He ostensibly gave Chen Hongrun a gift, but he expected that the other party would not accept it. This was just to make him relax his vigilance, and also to make Liu Huan relax his vigilance.

But Weining has another plan, to cooperate with Chen Hongrun in his wine shop business in Chang'an Restaurant!
Then use an appropriate meeting to ask Qi Bin to inform Liu Huan, thus making Liu Huan suspicious of this person and transfer him out of the center!
