Quickly wear "I am the empress"

Hearing Zhiyu's words, Liu De was stunned for a long time, and then regained some energy, nodded and said weakly: "Okay, I will listen to my cousin."

Seeing Liu De's cooperation, Zhiyu nodded with satisfaction, "Although the Han Dynasty has always implemented the parallel system of prefectures and states, I don't want to continue to use the old system, so I took back the real fiefdom."

Liu De nodded when he heard this. How could he not understand the principle of once an emperor and a courtier? Now that his cousin is the real person in charge, it is normal for her to take back the fiefdom.

"Of course, cousin will not treat you badly. I have arranged a position for you. When you recover, you can take up the position."

Hearing that Zhiyu wanted to arrange a position for him, Liu De shook his head and refused: "Cousin, just forget about taking the position. I'm incompetent. I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything well."

Hearing this, Zhiyu shook her head in disapproval, "Ade, now that my uncle is unconscious, you are the backbone of the family. If you don't hold the post, where will you get the money to support your aunt and Ayu?"

"Don't belittle yourself. My cousin has watched you grow up since you were a child. Your cousin knows how much you weigh. You were ordered to do something in danger before. You are not to blame for everything."

"Work hard under my cousin in the future. I believe that with your ability, as long as you find a position that suits you, you will definitely achieve results."

Hearing that Zhiyu trusted him so much, Liu De couldn't say anything if he wanted to refuse. What happened before had really hit him too hard.

He had studied the Four Books, Five Classics, and the Six Arts of the Gentleman since he was a child. Unexpectedly, he would be overthrown within two months of taking over government affairs. He didn't know for a moment whether it was because of his ability or because his opponent had premeditated it...

Now that he is not the real heir apparent, will his outcome be different if he works under his cousin?

Seeing that Liu De was obviously persuaded, Zhiyu felt that his mission was completed, so he found an excuse to leave the Zhending Palace.

After taking Mrs. Guo to Gaocheng, Zhiyu began to prepare for becoming king.

The first step in becoming king is, of course, to invite the princes from all over the world. It doesn’t matter whether they come or not, but they must be willing to send some gifts...

Not to mention the reaction of the princes from all over the world after receiving Zhiyu's invitation letter, the city was very lively. After all, he was a prince king with an army of 300,000, and the king-proclaiming ceremony must not be careless.

Liu Xiu, who was suppressed by Emperor Gengshi everywhere, heard the news that Zhiyu was going to become king, and a trace of envy flashed in his eyes. He was now bearing the humiliation and burden under Emperor Gengshi, and he didn't know when he would be the king.

Guo Shengtong was lucky enough to have secretly raised tens of thousands of horses. In one battle, she had 300,000 men...

It's a pity that Guo Shengtong is just a girl, with no ambition at all. With so many people, she doesn't know how to call herself emperor, but instead calls herself king.

If it were him, he would definitely proclaim himself emperor directly, and then use his name to make all people in the world submit to him.

"Husband, why are you thinking about this?"

Seeing Liu Xiu standing in the pavilion with a sad face, his wife Yin Lihua stepped forward and asked warmly with some distress.

Hearing Yin Lihua's voice, Liu Xiuchang sighed, "It's okay, I just heard that Zhending Guo Shengtong is going to be king, and I felt a little uncomfortable for a while."

"When my eldest brother revolted, he also thought that the prince general Xiang Ning had some kind of ambition and wanted to make a future for himself. He didn't expect that after joining Liu Xuan, he would end up like this..."

"Now I have hatred in my heart, but I have nothing to do with my enemies. I have to pretend to be nonchalant in front of others every day, otherwise I might not be able to protect myself. I really hate it."

Seeing that Liu Xiu was getting more and more excited as he spoke, Yin Lihua quickly stopped him, "Husband, I know that my eldest brother was harmed by Liu Xuan, and you have hatred in your heart, but now you must be steady, otherwise how can you avenge your eldest brother."

Liu Xiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Lihua, do you know why Liu Xuan called me that day? He asked me to regain Wang Lang's power."

"Although Wang Lang was reduced by two hundred thousand soldiers and horses by Guo Shengtong, the power in his hands cannot be underestimated. Liu Xuan sent thousands of soldiers and horses to me. He wanted me to die outside..."

Yin Lihua felt heartbroken when she heard that her husband had been plotted by Emperor Gengshi. She immediately pulled Liu Xiu and said, "Husband, I will accompany you."

Liu Xiu shook his head, hugged Yin Lihua into his arms, and said with love in his eyes: "I don't know whether I will live or die here, how can I let you live a precarious life with me."

"You stay at home, your father-in-law is here, Your Majesty will not touch you, so I feel more at ease."

"Husband, I am not afraid of danger, so please let me go with you. I really can't bear to have you alone outside."

Liu Xiu shook his head, "Lihua, I don't want you to suffer with me. Just listen to me and you can stay here."

Liu Xiu was in love with his concubine, while Liu Xuan was discussing how to kill Liu Xiu.

At this time, Liu Xuan's subordinate Li Songzheng secretly proposed a strategy, "Your Majesty, I have a plan to kill two birds with one stone."

Hearing this, Liu Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Please tell me in detail, Aiqing."

Li Song chuckled and said thiefly: "The real Guo Shengtong has an army of 300,000 men. Why don't your majesty send Liu Xiu to propose marriage for you."

Hearing this, Liu Xuan frowned slightly, "What does killing Liu Xiu have to do with asking to marry Guo Shengtong?"

Seeing that Liu Xuan didn't understand the meaning, Li Song explained helplessly, "Your Majesty, asking for marriage is false, but using Guo Shengtong's hand to kill Liu Xiu is true."

"Guo Shengtong managed to get so many people at such a young age. Naturally, she is not a simple person. Now that she has an army of 300,000 people, she is definitely not willing to get married when she is very satisfied."

"If Liu Xiu comes to propose marriage on your behalf at this time, she will definitely kill Liu Xiu in a rage."

Hearing this, Liu Xuan looked at Li Song, who was talking enthusiastically, as if considering the feasibility of his words, "But what if Guo Shengtong is willing to marry me? Then wouldn't she stop killing Liu Xiu?"

Li Song: “…………”

The rest of the ministers: “…………”

Where did your Majesty get his face? A female prince with 300,000 mercenaries will not be willing to marry a bad old man like you as long as she is healthy...

But I think so in my heart, everyone still has the professional quality of being a courtier.

Li Song lowered his head to avoid laughing, and then said: "Your Majesty, if Guo Shengtong is willing to marry you, it will be a great joy."

"She has 300,000 soldiers and horses in her hands. If she marries you, her 300,000 soldiers and horses will become your Majesty's, and the whole country will be in your Majesty's pocket."

Hearing this, Liu Xuan frowned and looked at Li Song in embarrassment, "But now that I have a queen, will Guo Shengtong be willing to be my concubine?"

Li Song: “…………”

Why do you always feel powerless when talking to His Majesty? Why is His Majesty so thick-skinned? As a concubine, people might not be surprised if you take the position of queen.

That's a female prince with an army of 300,000, and she's still a seventeen-year-old female prince. Don't you have any idea whether someone can take a fancy to you? Returning the title of concubine...are you humiliating her?

Originally, if you asked for marriage in a posthumous position, it would be fine if they didn't agree. At most, they would think you were whimsical and kill Liu Xiu, who asked for marriage on your behalf.

But if you use your concubine position to insult someone, then it won't be as simple as killing Liu Xiu. It's also possible for them to send troops to attack you, right?
