Han Shizu

Chapter 2068 Taizong Chapter 15 Lively Night
"Officials, the Imperial City Envoy Wang Yue wants to see you!" Out of nowhere, Zheng Yuan, the head of the chamberlain, came to report and naturally took the hand lamp from Liu Yang.

Liu Yang was slightly surprised, then waved his hand and said: "Xuan!"

"This old slave runs very diligently!" Liu Yang also slowly walked towards the main hall, muttering.

During the period when Wang Yue took office as the Imperial City Secretary, the frequency of reporting to Chui Gong Hall was very high. Not to mention three reports a day, there were always two reports, and the content of the reports could not escape Luoyang City. The stories of right and wrong, especially those between the upper class and the powerful.

When they met, the chief inspector met the emperor's slightly deep gaze. Wang Yue immediately accompanied him with some caution and said: "Reporting to the official family, just now the judge of Kaifeng Prefecture led people to break into the gate of Duke Liang's house and take Duke Liang's personal guard to Zhou. Falcon was taken away and charged with murder!”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Liu Yang's brows suddenly raised. He was obviously surprised by the news. He thought for a moment and asked, "What was Mr. Liang's reaction? He just let Luoyang Mansion take him away?"

"It is reported that Liang Gong's personal guards resisted with their military sticks, but Liang Gong stopped him. However, there was a verbal conflict between Liang Gong and Kou Zhun. Liang Gong threatened him, but Kou Zhun was undaunted..." Wang Yue replied.

Liu Yang smiled, with a little emotion in his laughter, as if he was surprised that Liu Ye could endure such a "big humiliation".

"I know!" Liu Yang said softly without any unnecessary expression.

"One more thing!" Wang Yue added: "After Liu Jichang, the governor of Kaifeng, learned about the incident on Yankang Street, he severely reprimanded his third son Liu Wei and enforced family law. It is said that Liu Wei's legs were broken..."

"Huh?" Liu Yang became even more curious and asked, "All the people and horses who died on the street belonged to Liu Wei?"

"Back to the official's house, exactly!"

"Didn't you say that Liu Jichang loves this son very much? How could he be cruel and do such a heavy trick?" Liu Yang said lightly.

Of course he can be ruthless. As the most promising son of King Xu, he also has considerable ambitions in politics. It is also a critical moment for his career to rise. He should be promoted steadily and smoothly, but something like this happened.

Although it is difficult to say what real negative impact this conflict will have, even if it brings a bad impression to the emperor, it is not something Liu Jichang can afford at this time.

If his official career was interrupted because of a playboy or an inexplicable conflict, it would not be impossible for Liu Jichang to suffer a cerebral hemorrhage.That's Gyeonggi Province, the best in the world. Although the position of Kaifeng Prefect is higher than most Taoist officials in the world in the eyes of many people, Gyeonggi Province has always been the first exception.It is conceivable that Liu Jichang's mood was "explosive" after learning what happened on Yankang Street.

After thinking for a while, Liu Yang still looked calm and whispered: "Continue to pay attention!"

"Yes!"

"If there's nothing else to do, leave!"

"Little one, leave!"

After Wang Yue left, Liu Yang frowned again, thinking about the matter, and whispered softly: "Kou Zhun, what do you want? He is not a big official, but he is very courageous!" Kou Zhun came to seize people. , which is unexpected, but just like the movements in Liu Jichang's house, they are just some small episodes and small excitements, which are a bit insignificant compared to the major events of feuding the country.The reason why Liu Yang pays more attention may be that Liu Ye, the vassal king, is involved.

With many thoughts in his mind, Liu Yang suddenly remembered something. He turned around and ordered to his chamberlain Zheng Yuan: "The King of Korea and the King of Khitan haven't left the capital yet. We will summon them to the palace tomorrow and hold a luncheon. I will entertain them myself!"

"Yes!"

Today, there are still some close neighbors around the Han Empire, such as the Khitan, Goryeo, Japan, Khotan, and Zhenla. However, the only ones who came to Beijing as kings to pay homage to the ancestor emperor and participate in the coronation ceremony of the new emperor were the Khitan King Yelu Longxu and Chant by the King of Goryeo.

King Jingjong of Goryeo passed away as early as the 25th year of Kaibao, and was succeeded by the crown prince Wang Song. Wang Song was young at the time. Therefore, in the past six years, the Goryeo Dynasty has been regent by his mother, Queen Mother Liu.

As for Queen Mother Liu, she is the daughter of King Xu Liu Chengyun. It can be imagined that in the past few years, the relationship between Korea and the Han Dynasty has become closer and closer, and the policy of "serving the Han" during the Wang Min period is still continued. The entire Korea The situation is now in a stable and orderly state.

Until last year, Emperor Sejo passed away, and the 14-year-old King Wangsong of Goryeo finally left the palace and left the country. Accompanied by Xu Xi, the internal historian, he came from the sea to pay a "state visit" to the Han Empire.

Like his father, every time he came to Beijing, he would bring a large number of tributes and gifts, and Prince Xu's family would also be indispensable. After all, Prince Xu was also Wang Song's grandfather.The horse killed by Liu Ye was a gift from Wang Song.

Originally, after the major event of the transition between the old and the new Han Dynasty was concluded and the relationship between the two parties was completed, Wang Song, like the Khitan King Yelu Longxu, had already submitted letters requesting to meet the emperor and resign, but Liu Yang did not take the time to come.

This time, I just happened to remember that as two vassal states closely bordering the Han Dynasty, whether it is Khitan or Goryeo, they should be given some attention and respect, at least that's what Liu Yang thinks now.

In the dead of night, the large car drove smoothly on the streets illuminated by dim lights. There were guards in front and behind the car. The guards were of a very high level. This was the secret of Zhao Wang Liu Fang.

In the king's car, Liu Fang's face was calm, his tall and straight body swayed slightly as the car moved forward, and he only had a faint wry smile at the corner of his mouth.The emperor's second brother, this is a difficult mission sent to him!

When the emperor summoned him at night, Liu Fang had no choice but to hide his power and bide his time and enter the palace urgently.In the Chui Gong Hall, Emperor Liu Yang did not say anything, and did not even ask Liu Fang for his thoughts and opinions. He just issued an edict calmly, asking Liu Fang to settle the kings and avoid making things worse and affecting the harmony and stability of the court. .

Let's talk about it. It would be unrealistic if Liu Fang had no idea at all about Liu Yang's instructions.However, when faced with the imperial edict from the emperor, he really could not give a reason to refuse. Since he was a child, the education he received and the consciousness he had formed meant that he could only do his best to implement it.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go back to the palace?" As if he could feel the fluctuations in the Lord's heart, the attendant outside the car did not directly pull the king to the palace, but asked proactively.

After calming down, Liu Fang said: "No! Go to Prince Wei's Mansion!"

At the meeting at Taihe Tower, Liu Fang decisively refused Liu Wenyuan's invitation. Of course he knew that this was a restless gathering of his brothers and nephews, and attending the meeting would not bring any benefits except trouble.

Especially for a meritorious prince like him, it is also true to say that he, Liu Fang, is different from other kings.The most different thing is that he can arouse the new emperor's suspicion, which is difficult for others, including Liu Wenyuan, the successor of his eldest brother Liu Xu.

At the same time, Liu Fang, who was keeping a low profile during the national mourning period, had been thinking about the question in his mind: what was the destination of Emperor Shizu who summoned him to return to the capital before his death.
