Han Shizu

Chapter 1794 King Wei is back

On the stone platform in front of the Long Live Hall, Emperor Liu leaned slightly sideways, huddled in a soft chair, enjoying the sunshine of spring.On the side, the emperor's grandson Liu Wenji was reciting Han Fei's "Say Difficulty", and Emperor Liu listened carefully.

These days, Emperor Liu is still as usual, and will call the two sons of the prince into the palace every now and then, and they will come in turn. Sun's attention, of course, behind this is the recognition and protection of the prince as always.

In fact, with the eyes and ears of Emperor Liu, no one knew how much influence the death of Empress Fu would have on the court and how much pressure it would bring to the prince.Although the prince is tested from time to time, the purpose of the test is not to wait for him to make mistakes and catch his omissions.

Sometimes Emperor Liu was really well-intentioned, at least when the Crown Prince and other people heard that His Majesty called the emperor's grandson into the palace again, they would feel inexplicably at ease and would be happy to see it.

With Emperor Liu's attitude, the next generation may choose one of the two in the future, but the successor will basically not be too surprised.Although there are many heirs, there is only one prince, and he stays on the table like a rock.

"That's right, this "Say Difficulty" is not too short, and you can already recite it all!" After Liu Wenji had finished reciting it, Emperor Liu showed a little smile, brought Liu Wenji to his knees, and praised: "However, grandfather still said that. , It is not advisable to study books and memorize books by heart. The truth contained in it needs to be fully understood. If you can get a glimpse of the three flavors, it may be of great benefit to your future!"

Although Liu Wenji was a little confused, he still nodded obediently and responded softly.Before entering the palace, his mother gave thousands of instructions, to serve his grandfather well, to be submissive and obedient, and not to be reckless in the slightest.
And the kindness that Emperor Liu showed towards his grandson was beyond the imagination of others, and even the creases on his old face became deeper.

"Drink some water and eat some snacks!" Emperor Liu pointed to Liu Wenji.

"Yes!"

"Where are the king of Wei and his party?" Turning his head, Emperor Liu asked Yan Tuo after his thoughts changed.

Yan Tuo quickly replied: "Report to the official family, according to yesterday's post, the Palace of the King of Wei has passed Mianchi!"

"Why so slow, still in Mianchi?" Emperor Liu frowned slightly, his tone was a little impatient, but looking at him, it seemed that he didn't realize where Mianchi was.

Yan Tuo glanced at Emperor Liu, and carefully reminded: "Officials, Mianchi is less than two hundred miles away from Beijing. According to the itinerary, His Royal Highness King Wei should be able to arrive in Beijing today!"

"Oh, it turns out that we have already arrived at Mianchi!" Emperor Liu was stunned for a moment, Long Yan was delighted, and immediately said: "Two hundred miles, it takes half a day to arrive, even if Liu Min and his party have more people, they will definitely arrive today. Go to the palace gate to see, Have they arrived yet?"

"Yes!"

Liu Min, king of Wei, just set off from Anxi and returned east after the beginning of spring. He has been busy on the front line of Anxi for more than two years since his western expedition, and even missed the funeral after the amulet.

Now that the situation in Anxi has stabilized, Liu Min decided to return to Beijing to meet Emperor Liu.Of course, it was one aspect to visit Emperor Liu, another aspect to report on his work, and another aspect to come back in person to ask the court for support.

And Emperor Liu was also very happy when he heard the news that Liu Min was coming back. After all, he was Dafu's own son, and he had earned so much face for him in the Western Regions. One can imagine the joy in his heart.

Naturally, Liu Min wanted to arrive in Beijing before the Jiaqing Festival, but now that the festival was approaching, he hadn't returned. This was the third time that Emperor Liu had asked Yan to leave Liu Min's itinerary.

Yan Tuo was ordered to leave, but quickly turned back, with a little excitement on his face, he reported to Emperor Liu like offering a treasure: "Officials, Ding'anbo guards report, His Royal Highness King Wei and his party have arrived at the palace gate to wait for an edict!"

"Oh!" Emperor Liu immediately beamed when he heard the news, and immediately ordered: "Hurry up! Let Li Jian lead them to see me! Also, inform Princess Wei, I don't think there is anyone in Beijing who cares more about Liu Min than her." people!"

"Yes!" Yan Tuo's response was a bit more relaxed, after all, Emperor Liu smiled happily.

"Grandfather, is the sixth uncle returning to Beijing?" Liu Wenji, who was eating a few snacks next to him, asked curiously.

"Yes!" Emperor Liu smiled, noticing the crumbs on the corners of Liu Wenji's mouth, and said, "Wipe the corners of his mouth, seeing Sixth Uncle Ni with such dignity will make him laugh!"

Liu Wenji smiled, took out a white towel and vigorously wiped the corners of his mouth.

After a while, Liu Min, Yang Yanzhao, and Guo Yi, under the guidance of Ding Anbo and Li Jian, came to meet him.The three of them are enough to represent the entire Western Expeditionary Army, and Anxi's military and political affairs are temporarily handed over to Kang Baoyi and Xiang Deming.

Of course, there was also a woman and child who came with her, the third princess Liu Xing and her son Yang Chuanzhen with Yang Yanzhao.

These people were all descendants of Emperor Liu's relatives. Seeing them, he was so happy that he even stood up to greet them.

"Your Majesty, I'm waiting to see you!" Liu Min and the others saluted in an orderly manner.

This made Emperor Liu a little unhappy, he glared at Liu Min, and said, "Why, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you're so unfamiliar, you don't even call me daddy anymore?"

"Father!" Hearing this, Liu Min yelled, and it was really difficult to pronounce.

Looking carefully at Liu Min, Emperor Liu couldn't help but thumped his chest, and said: "The more you have the air of a commander, Anxi has not waited in vain for the past few years!"

"Dad taught me well!"

"I didn't teach you much!" Emperor Liu shook his head: "You have always had your own opinions, and today's achievements are all due to your own efforts!"

"By the way, why don't you see your daughter-in-law?"

When Liu Min heard this, a smile appeared on his dark face: "She is pregnant, and it is inconvenient for her to travel far, so she stayed in Gaochang!"

"Haha!" Emperor Liu laughed loudly when he heard the words: "Okay! This is another happy event! However, you are also thirty. At this age, you should have an heir to pass on to your family!"

Liu Min married late, and married the granddaughter of the late Ju Guogong Li Tao. Liu Min went to the Western Regions, and his husband and wife followed him.

"Father, mother." Although she didn't want to spoil the fun on this occasion, Liu Min still had this matter in mind, so she couldn't help but raise her mouth.

When Emperor Liu heard the words, he really restrained his smile, but seeing the sadness in Liu Min's calm expression, his eyes were even a little red, he waved his hands and said: "The majestic commander of the Western Expedition, why is he acting like this! Your mother has a limited lifespan, there are no holidays, people always have such a day, and one day, I will also have such a day."

Hearing Emperor Liu say such unlucky words, Liu Min restrained his sadness and couldn't help calling: "Father!"

However, Emperor Liu raised his hand and interrupted: "Since you are back, later, you can go to the Taimiao to worship your mother!"

"Yes!"

After exchanging pleasantries with Liu Min, Emperor Liu turned his attention to Yang Yanzhao's family and took a step forward.Liu Yun immediately bowed down and saluted, calling softly: "See Your Majesty!"

The mother of the third princess Liu Yun is Concubine Sun Jing, who was presented by Li Jing in her early years.Liu Yun is now in his early thirties, a wife and mother, and quite handsome.However, as an ordinary princess, she has always been in awe of Emperor Liu, and she is also very restrained.

After looking at her twice, Emperor Liu sighed, "Yang Yanzhao didn't bully you, did he?"

"I don't dare!" Yang Yanzhao didn't dare to be negligent when he heard the father-in-law say that, and immediately responded seriously.His straight face made Emperor Liu laugh.

"Husband treats me very well!" Liu Yun said, bearing the oppression from Emperor Liu on Yang Yanzhao's behalf.

Smiling, Emperor Liu also patted Yang Yanzhao on the shoulder, and said: "Among my sons-in-law, you and Li Jilong are the most outstanding. Yes, sooner or later they will be the pillars of the great man, and strive to surpass your father!"

Sensing the encouragement in Emperor Liu's words, Yang Yanzhao solemnly responded: "I dare not compare myself with my father, I can only do my best to be loyal and live up to your majesty's expectations!"

"Okay!" Emperor Liu lowered his head, looked at his grandson Yang Chuanzhen who was looking at him curiously, and said with a smile, "After a while, Chuanzhen has grown so tall, almost reaching my waist!"

Under Liu Yun's signal, Yang Chuanzhen knelt down again and kowtowed to Emperor Liu a few times.
