A thousand-year-old family that began with the Battle of Makino

Chapter 183: Villain, hand over power?
South of the city, Lu Gong Mansion
Lu Tai looked at Lu Chan and said, "Okay, you are so kind. You actually made His Majesty drink and have fun. Why, do you want the Lu family to be nailed to the treacherous officials and sycophants of history?"

Lu Chan didn't say anything, and Lu Tai continued: "Now that our Lu family has obtained the position of Lu Gong, we are already extremely wealthy and have caused dissatisfaction among many people. You still want to do such a thing and give away the handle? Do you want the Lu family to overthrow?"

Lu Chan raised his head and said: "That's not the case. I am also doing it for the good of the Lu family. I think the Lu family should be in a higher position. What I am doing now is not enough to show the nobility of the Lu family. I think back then, my father joined the family as a prince. In the first team of Emperor Gaozu, my aunt was the queen mother, and the power of the world rested with her, but why was the Lu family still suppressed by the Bai family? Isn't this ridiculous?"

Lu Tai did not expect that Lu Chan would think this way, and said: "Shut up, what are you talking about? Do you think we are the only ones in the world, the Lu family? You think the Liu family and the Bai family are just freeloaders." ?

When my aunt was in power, if it hadn't been for the help of the Bai family, I, the Lu family, would have been regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by the Liu clan and the meritorious Marquis Che. Since I can't get the world, I rashly seize power. How is this different from committing suicide? ?

Besides, when my aunt passed away, if the late emperor hadn't been kind and didn't use any means to suppress us, he would have treated us as Duke Lu. We couldn't be such treacherous people. Why could the Bai family be so prosperous for so long? Not only was Bai's reputation so great, even Emperor Gaozu was also very afraid of him.

We Lu family should learn from Bai family and protect our wings instead of destroying the Great Wall. "

Lu Chan sneered and said: "Reputation? How many copper coins is reputation worth? Power is the family's long-lasting magic weapon. As long as I gain the attention of the emperor and get the position of prime minister, who in the world dares to say no to our Lu family?" Character?
Our Lu family is the next Bai family, or even the next Liu family. Even Bai Jun has to obey us. How many armies does the Bai family have? If I become the prime minister and the Lu family controls the central military power,

The Liu family and the Bai family are all withered bones in the graves. They are the dead souls of the Lu family. When the time comes, whether the surname in the world is Liu or Lu, isn't it all ours? "

Lu Tai looked at Lu Chan who was so arrogant and said in disbelief: "You actually have such an idea? No, you will bring Lu's end. You must not do this. The power of Liu and Bai cannot be underestimated. .”

Lu Chan said disdainfully: "Brother, have you been brainwashed by Bai Jun? Shouldn't it be clear if I choose you or my path when we hold a clan meeting?"

Lu Tai said: "Just leave it open, I don't believe that your doomsday remarks will be supported by the clan elders."

Lu Chan just smiled and said nothing.

Two months later, the Lu clan meeting was held in Lu County. Many people with the surname Lu either rushed there in person or sent people to attend. At the meeting, Lu Tai and Lu Chan expressed their opinions and let everyone decide which way to go.

The Lutai Road is conservative, and you won’t see results in the early stage, but you can keep your existing wealth. The road to Lu Chan is difficult and dangerous, and the risks are extremely high, but the rewards are also extremely attractive, the harvest is extremely rich, and you can even directly usurp the entire world.

So many people were attracted by this huge benefit and spoke out to support Lu Chan. Seeing this, Lu Tai shouted loudly: "Why are you so short-sighted? How can you achieve such great results? Do you all think that Liu and Bai are freeloaders?" ?Choose me. If you don’t choose me, the Lu family will be doomed."

But everyone was silent, and only a few supported Lu Chan. After all, Lu made a fortune too quickly, and got too many things, and there was no time to turn them into internal results, so many people were very superficial and short-sighted.

Finally, Lu Tai was removed from the position of head of the Lu family and appointed Lu Chan as the new head of the Lu family, leading his disciples to seize wealth and honor. At the same time, Lu Tai was warned not to reveal anything about the Lu family, otherwise Lu Tai would be expelled from his ancestral home.

Lu Tai was silent, and everything in Lu Gong's mansion was silent. On the contrary, Zhou Luhou's lineage was very active in Chang'an, as if Lu Chan was Lu Gong and the legitimate son of Lu Ze, while Lu Tai was just a bastard of the Lu family.

Eight years after the White Emperor
January

The Emperor of Han and his crown, as well as the princes from all over the world, gathered in Chang'an to congratulate him.

It means Queen Bai officially begins to delegate power.

In Weiyang Palace, the Han Emperor accepted the worship of the princes for the first time. He was very excited. He secretly clasped his hands in his sleeves and felt that everything was coming back.

"I will see you, your Majesty. Your Majesty will live forever!"

"No courtesy, I'm fine."

Almost all the princes and kings surnamed Liu such as King Qi and King Liang, Dukes with foreign surnames such as Lu Gong and Bai Gong, and meritorious princes such as Liuhou and Piyanghou came.

The only difference is that King Qi died of illness three years ago, and so did King Chu, so the new King Qi and King Chu came this time.

Duke Bai was ill in bed and could not travel for a long time, so Bai Jun came to congratulate him instead.

Starting from the banquet.

Banquets were the Han Emperor's favorite thing to do. Not long after, the Han Emperor was already a little drunk and became more wanton, constantly touching the maid next to him.

But the maid was trembling constantly and did not dare to move at all. A female official who was some distance away from the Han Emperor saw the Han Emperor's actions and knew that the Han Emperor was getting drunk again. If no one stopped her, she would definitely go further and further.

So he immediately left the banquet hall and went to look for Queen Bai.

Originally, all the officials were watching the dancers dancing, drinking wine and eating meat with the nearby ministers or the Marquis of Che, but the Han Emperor remained silent. Out of respect, the people rarely paid attention to the high-ranking Han Emperor.

"Ah~" A woman's exclamation spread throughout the hall.

Everyone looked up at the place where the sound occurred, and saw that the Han Emperor ignored the public, pressed the maid next to him, and was about to take action, but the maid subconsciously cried and resisted.

"This~" The ministers and princes were all shocked.

Just then, a woman's voice said loudly: "The Queen Mother is here!"

The female official at the door of the main hall flashed over and exposed the door. Empress Bai came like this, but her face didn't look so good. "I will see you, the Queen Mother, for ten thousand years."

Everyone quickly turned their heads and bowed their heads in salute.

Queen Bai walked directly towards the Han Emperor. At this time, the maids under the Han Emperor had been rescued by several eunuchs and female officials with quick eyesight and quick hands, and they went out through the back door in disheveled clothes.

Queen Bai looked at Emperor Han who was slumped on the throne, belching wine, and kept saying: "Beauty~"

Empress Bai snorted coldly, suddenly feeling very uncomfortable in her throat, and felt like coughing, but she suppressed it, turned around, faced the ministers and said: "Without courtesy, my family is in peace!"

The ministers then raised their heads and saw that Empress Bai and the female officials, palace maids, and female guards around her had blocked everything about the Han Emperor, and could not see anything.

Queen Bai said: "That's the end of today's banquet! You all have seen that the emperor is too drunk and is already a little drunk. Please forgive me!"

The ministers had no choice but to salute and say: "I sincerely comply with the Queen Mother's decree." After saying this, they all walked out.

It was just that the eyes of King Qi Liu Xiang kept wandering, as if he was thinking about something. Even when he was about to reach the door, he turned around and took another look with interest, only to meet Queen Bai's cold eyes.

He was so frightened that he bowed quickly, turned around and walked away quickly.

Seeing that all the ministers had almost left, Empress Bai came back to her senses, looked at Emperor Han, sighed, and said: "Originally, the Ai family thought that since you have reached the crown, you should restrain your temper for the sake of national affairs, and are ready to put you down. The state affairs are in your hands, but now that you are like this, how can you reassure the Ai family?"

After speaking, he said to the female official next to him: "Help the emperor to the palace!"

"Here!"

Looking at the retreating figure, Empress Bai was thinking that she should marry Emperor Han.

Eight years after the White Emperor
March
At this time, Empress Bai still did not hand over the affairs of the country to the Han Emperor. She even sat next to the Han Emperor during the court meeting. The Han Emperor was dissatisfied, but due to the power of Empress Bai and the power behind her, the Emperor was dissatisfied.

Bai Jun is the prime minister, and the lieutenant of the Northern Army is also held by Marquis Che of the Bai family. Even the two Southern Army guards in Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace have a female general appointed by Empress Bai, which is the original Fuhaodu. Lieutenant, was promoted to Changle Palace Guard Lieutenant.

"Now that the emperor has reached the crown, the position of the master of the harem should be filled. The Ai family would like to ask you if each family has a girl of the right age to complete the succession of the Han Dynasty?"

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing twice.

At this time, Taiwei Zhou Bo came out and said: "Marquis Qu Ni has a daughter who happens to be nineteen this year, so she may be his queen."

Queen Bai looked at Qu Nihou Chen Mai and said, "What do Qu Nihou think?"

Empress Bai had long since determined that she would marry the Han Emperor to a daughter of the meritorious Chehou Hou, in order to completely tie the Chehou Hous to the frame of the Han Dynasty, so she had already made an agreement with the leader of the Chehou Hou, Jianghou Zhoubo.

And Qu Nihou was the final candidate selected by the Chehou Group. Chen Mai said: "My little girl is lucky enough to be favored by His Majesty. How dare you say no?"

Empress Bai said happily: "Well, please Zong Zheng and Taichang prepare well and hold the wedding on a selected date!"

Zong Zheng and Taichang went out to salute and accept the order.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty just sat in his position, watching his queen being confirmed. The back of his hand holding several cases was so tight that veins popped out, but there was no movement on his face.

May
The Emperor of Han married Chen Yun, the daughter of Marquis Qu Ni, and became the third queen of the Han Dynasty.

Empress Bai could finally leave the affairs of the harem to Chen Yun and concentrate on the affairs of the former court.

Because they knew the nature of the Han emperor, the ministers, except for a few conservative ones, hardly opposed Empress Bai's overstepping of authority. Even Zongzheng and Liu Zhang acquiesced.

June
After learning that Emperor Han had raped and killed two maids in Weiyang Palace, Empress Bai was so angry that she couldn't even get sick anymore. She also knew more and more that Liu Gong did not have the virtues and talents of an emperor, but he was her son after all. In the end, for the sake of royal dignity, the emperor of the Han Dynasty had no choice but to order that the incident should not be spread out of the palace at all. He rewarded the relatives of the two palace maids generously and only said that they died unexpectedly.

Empress Bai may also know that she can't survive for a few more years, so she summoned Prime Minister Bai Jun into the palace, told Bai Jun about her character and disappointment with Emperor Han, and asked Bai Jun to take it for her own sake. Protect the Han Emperor in the future.

However, after Bai Jun heard a series of actions of Emperor Han, he really could not violate his conscience and perseverance as a Bai family member, so he said bluntly: "Little sister, you should know that our Bai family's code of conduct, if you want me to violate it, According to Bai's principles, I really can't help such a gentleman to an unlimited extent.
But I can promise that I will never take the initiative in the future. Instead, I will try my best to protect you. But you have to know that you have done too many evil things. Rushing to rescue him will not only damage Bai's destiny, but also violate Bai's rule of being unofficial and immoral. Your principles,
For the Bai family, I can't agree, but I can promise you that as long as Emperor Han doesn't take the initiative to depose me, I will try my best to get help. After all, he is your child. "

Bai Hui also knew the family's principles, so she could only nod and said: "I know, brother has tried his best."

Before leaving, Bai Jun still asked her to take good care of her body, which made Bai Hui, who had been in the palace for a long time and felt haggard, get a trace of nectar.
