Straight man of steel

Chapter 380 It's Important Not To Drink Unboiled Water

In the end, Liu Che agreed to Chu Da's application for resignation.

It rained continuously for three days.

The air in Chang'an City is full of the mixed smell of blood and earth.

After the rain stopped, Taizhu Dou still couldn't control his behavior.

No matter what, he rushed to the palace to find Liu Che to intercede.

When Liu Che saw his aunt, who used to be invincible in the past, kneeling and sitting at the Highness, he felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

If it weren't for Taizhu Dou's great help back then, whether Liu Che would be able to sit in this position is still a matter of debate.

"Aunt, why are you here, Zhang Tang has already found out that my aunt was not involved in this matter.

All the things are the sins committed by the Queen and the people around her. Aunt, you are already old, you should get up and go home to recuperate. "

Dou Taizhu no longer has the strength of the past. After making up his mind to be with Dong Yan before, Liu Xun made up his mind to only care about money and not power.

But now that is her daughter, locked in that claustrophobic deep palace, she still doesn't know what will happen.

All lovers of calf licking have it.

Even an old mother who is dazzled by desire will always worry about the well-being of her children.

"Your Majesty, I am really disappointed.

My daughter has caused so much trouble to His Majesty, how dare I, a mother, hide at home.

I came here just to say sorry to His Majesty, and hope that Your Majesty can remember the affection he has shown to Gillian over the past few decades. "

Taizhu Dou also knows that Liu Che has no love for Chen Ajiao now.

But at least the relationship between siblings still exists, Ajiao Chen is a few years older than Liu Che.

When Liu Che was young, he didn't have any age-appropriate playmates in the palace. At that time, Emperor Xiaojing had already appointed a prince.

Everyone surrounded the crown prince Liu Rong, and there were people who noticed the feelings of Liu Che, the tenth son of the emperor.

Chen Ajiao was the only childhood playmate.

Otherwise, after Li Ji rejected Liu Xing's marriage request, Liu Xing would not immediately find Liu Che, who is two years younger than Chen Ajiao.

The main reason is that Chen Ajiao really got along with Liu Che when she was young.

No matter how deep Wang Zhi's thoughts were, at that time he was far less powerful than Liu Xun.

There have been so many eldest princesses throughout the ages, but only Liu Xing can use her mother's surname as her title.

This shows how much Dou Yifang loves Liu whoring.

Everyone knows that when Dou Yifang was alive, whoever she liked was someone who could reach the clouds.

The same is true for Liu whoring.

After the death of King Wu of Liang, in Chang'an, Empress Dowager Dou was the first, then Emperor Han Jing was second, and the third was Liu Piao, the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty in the previous generation of the current Taizhu Dou.

Thinking about so many princesses, how many of them can leave their names?

But now such a woman is still Liu Che's elder, but because of love, she gave up her dignity as the eldest princess twice.

"Auntie, get up, don't worry.

What the Queen has done is too outrageous, I must abolish her post and give an explanation to the people of the world.

I hope my aunt won't misunderstand because of this afterwards. Although the queen has been abolished by me, her living standard will remain the same as before and will not be degraded.

I promised my aunt that as long as I sit in this position for a day, Gillian will not be wronged by the expenses. "

Taizhu Dou received Liu Che's accurate answer, and she felt confident in her heart.

She understands that being deposed is certain, as long as the person is still alive, there will be a chance to make a comeback in the future.

"In that case, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness to Gillian today.

Because I am old and in poor health, I will not bother Your Majesty. "

After saying this, Mrs. Dou reluctantly stood up and began to walk out of the palace step by step.

Liu Che immediately winked at the eunuch beside him, and the eunuch immediately stepped forward to support Dou Taizhu.

It didn't take long.

An imperial edict after the abolishment was promulgated by the Yushi doctor's mansion, announcing that Chen Ajiao was abolished all over the world and could only live in Nagato Palace in the future.

After Liu Che finished his decree, he immediately sent a large number of craftsmen to repair the Nagato Palace.

Probably thinking of the promise he made when he was young, he ordered ten thousand catties of gold to be taken out from Shaofu's warehouse, and ordered to be ground into powder.

When repairing Nagato Palace, all these gold powders were painted on the walls of Nagato Palace.

In addition, five hundred palace guards were sent to guard Nagato Palace.

Originally, there were people who wanted to add insult to injury, but after seeing Liu Che do this, Nagato Palace became a forbidden area, and no one dared to approach that palace.

What Zhang Yuan wanted to do was approved only after he wrote a memorial.

Because Zhang Yuan didn't ask for any official position, but only asked to join the army to fight the enemy. Liu Che would never refuse such a person.

In the era of war, who would organize a person to go to the battlefield?

There are a lot of things to worry about right now. Zhang Yuan happened to be a troublemaker in Liu Che's eyes. Now that Zhang Yuan himself requested to go to the battlefield, Liu Che almost stopped applauding in celebration.

As for the matter of the master's father, Liu Che didn't take it to heart either.

Wei Qing, Zhang Yuan, Gongsun He and the three jointly participated in the performance, and what the master father Yan said in the Pingyang Hou's mansion that day was all true, Zhang Yuan and the others were not the only ones who heard it.

Can Zhufuyan still deny it?

Since you can't, you can only obey obediently.

The news of Liu Che's dethronement was not much different from the time when the Pingyang Hou Mansion opened the mourning hall for everyone to worship.

Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing immediately went to Pingyang Hou Mansion to worship.

Liu Cheren did not come, but he asked people in the palace to send a memorial, and then agreed to the request of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion and allowed Cao Xiang to inherit Cao Shi's title and become the new Pingyang Marquis.

As the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, it is impossible for Princess Pingyang to give gifts to others.

So in such a funeral of Lord Hou, who can be regarded as the number one big man, only Cao Xiang, a child, has been returning gifts to others.

The entire Cao family was controlled by Princess Pingyang, and all the Cao family members in Chang'an City looked submissive.

Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing comforted Cao Xiang, and then resigned with Princess Pingyang, wanting to go back to Lantian Mountain directly.

"Your Highness, please don't be too sad. Marquis Pingyang has not yet grown up, and the entire family will depend on you in the future.

In the future, if there is something that can be used as a minister, I ask Princess Pingyang to open her mouth without avoiding suspicion. "

The city of Chang'an has been lifeless these past few days, and there is no vitality at all in the palace.

Except for Liu Che's edict to abolish the empress, no one else knew what happened in the palace at all.

Princess Pingyang hesitated for a moment, then whispered to Zhang Yuan.

"On the afternoon when you came to Chang'an City, the Shaofu Ling Chu Da resigned. I heard that the Taixue Ling and the Shaofu Ling have always been on good terms. I don't know if you know the news."

Zhang Yuan looked obviously nervous. He really didn't know about Chu Da's resignation.

Chu Da didn't have any friends in Chang'an City, so he probably didn't know about Zhang Yuan's coming to Chang'an City.

In addition, the matter happened urgently, so there was no time to inform Zhang Yuan of the news.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for telling me the news.

I wonder if Her Royal Highness knows that Chu Da is still in Chang'an City? "

"It is said that he left the day before yesterday, but he seems to have gone to Du County. He should be looking for you."

Zhang Yuan did not doubt the authenticity of these words that Princess Pingyang said.

Fortunately, Princess Pingyang told Zhang Yuan the news, otherwise he and Wei Qing would go back to Lantian Mountain directly later, maybe they would miss out on Chu Da as a friend in this life.

As for why Chu Da didn't go directly to Lantian Mountain to wait for Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan also guessed the reason.

It is probably because Chu Da no longer has an official status and cannot enter the jurisdiction of Shanglinyuan.

Of course, with the interpersonal relationships that Chu Da had cultivated after working in the Shaofu for so many years, it must be very simple to enter Shanglinyuan.

But now Chu Da must have been forced to resign due to unavoidable reasons. Zhang Yuan can understand this if he can cause less trouble.

"Your Highness, I still have a lot of questions I want to ask Chu Da, so I will bid farewell today."

Zhang Yuan had already opened his mouth to say goodbye, and Wei Qing had no desire to stay any longer.

"Your Highness, I have to rush to Dinghu Yanshou Palace to prepare for the opening of the palace, so let's go."

"Yeah, you two are the pillars of the big man, remember to be prudent in doing things in the future.

Caution is the boat. "

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for your warning!"

It has been raining for several days in a row. Although it has not reached the point of flooding, the road from Chang'an City to Du County is full of mud.

Zhang Yuan likes to wear plain clothes. In the past, he never went out in this kind of weather, let alone galloping on horseback.

The clothes were covered with yellow marks due to the splashed mud, which always reminded Zhang Yuan of that disgusting thing.

A series of incidents came over, making Zhang Yuan not in the mood to continue to care about whether his clothes were dirty.

"Brother Yuan, I guess Brother Chu was implicated in the matter of witchcraft."

Immediately, Wei Qing saw that Zhang Yuan's face was full of worry, so he couldn't help expressing the guess in his heart.

"It must be, otherwise, even if the Shaofu Ling, who manages the palace's finances and the taxes of the mountains and fields, resigns at this moment, His Majesty would not let him go so quickly.

It seems that there is a problem with the Shaofu, and Chu Da has to resign as a last resort.

Zhang Tang, if Chu Da had not resigned from office, he would have been caught in Ting Wei's mansion, and his fate would not be too good. "

"Brother Yuan, you support Brother Chu's resignation?"

"Nature is supportive.

A companion is like a tiger, if it weren't for me, I would be too involved in the officialdom and unable to extricate myself.

On the other hand, Your Majesty will not let me go. Do you think I really changed like this because I was addicted to being an official? "

"Brother Yuan, I really thought you were enlightened.

It turned out to be the same as before. "

"Haha, I'm still the boy I used to be, brother!

Everyone said that I was for the big man, but I knew that I was just a selfish person from the beginning to the end.

If it is for ordinary people, as long as my family is full, I will no longer care about the lives of the world.

Now I am the high-ranking official of the Han Dynasty. As long as the people all over the world live a good life and the Han Dynasty has strong soldiers and sufficient food, Your Majesty will be happy.

As a high official, I will not die because of an emperor who has troubles in his heart every day.

Don't look at me making so many things out, in fact, I just want to live better.

As for provoking His Majesty one after another in recent days, it is just to make His Majesty pay more attention to my plan.

Otherwise, do you really think that I, Zhang Yuan, have become that man who is not afraid of life and death? "

Wei Qing frowned tightly, not because of Zhang Yuan's selfishness, but because of the information revealed in Zhang Yuan's words.

"Brother Yuan, don't you mean that everything you do in the future will make the big man better and better?"

“Not just getting better, I’m going to do things that will change the landscape of Dahan.

Have you ever thought about how many wars you can fight with the national power of a big man?At that time, the national strength was exhausted and the Huns were not completely conquered or driven away.

The big man will face the crisis of internal and external troubles.

Of course, the Xiongnu must fight. We must end the war against the Huns in the shortest possible time, so that the big man will not have the crisis of foreign invasion in the next few hundred years.

And the big man will not be dragged down by the war against the Huns.

Young brother, are you confident that Hetao will be pacified in one battle, Monan in the next battle, Hexi in the third stop, and Mobei in the last stop? "

Hetao is Zhang Yuan's main goal this time, and it is actually the least difficult.

Anyone who is familiar with the Hetao area knows that the natural environment here makes the Huns in the Hetao area have to face the Han army face to face.

With 100 million Huns, Zhang Yuan knew nothing about the art of war and was confident that he would slaughter 50 Han troops.

This time Wei Qing has a 20 army under his command, and there must be no problem if the slave army exceeds [-].

Zhang Yuan doesn't know how many people there are in the Huns Loufan and Baiyang Kings in the Hetao area. It is estimated that they don't even know the two Huns Kings, but they must not add up to 20, not even [-].

The military minister's own tribe has just exceeded 10 people. How many troops can two little Hun kings have?
With so many troops, if Zhang Yuan were to command them, those slave troops would definitely be diverted to build cities and reclaim wasteland.

The remaining [-] regular troops took themselves as a nail in the Hetao area, and killed as many Huns as they came.

"Hehe, I dare not say that the first battle was successful. As long as the Xiongnu are still harassing the Han north, I, Wei Qing, will fight until my death."

"What are you thinking about?

I just said it in vain, do you think the tens of millions of people in the big man can keep you fighting in the north?

You have nothing to do with fighting until you die, so don't drag down the people of the big man.

We must control the war against the Huns within ten years, and strive to completely wipe out the Huns four times or three times.

By the way, I remember you have a nephew named Huo Qubing, how old is this year? "

"Why did you mention that incompetent kid?
He should be ten years old this year, and I usually stay with His Majesty in the palace to prevent him from being entangled with those three religions in Chang'an City. "

"Hey, I'm only ten years old.
You go back and take care of that nephew of yours, and tell him not to drink unboiled water! "

"why?"

"There is no reason, I have never asked you for anything in my life, you must take this matter to heart.

This matter is very important to you and me, even more important to Huo Qubing, and equally important to Da Han and His Majesty! "
