Thinking of dealing with Xie Xiang together with the queen mother, Liu Zao sighed in her heart, thinking, wait a moment, she really can't bear to let Xie Xiang be frustrated.

The young man was soft-hearted, Xie Xiang rubbed her lower abdomen when she was in pain, Liu Zao always remembered that she didn't want to be ashamed of those who cared about her.

But in an instant, she was very angry, not only angry at herself for being soft-hearted, but also angry at Xie Yi's ignorance, which made her unable to figure it out.

After being angry, the little emperor had to go to the lecture the next day.Today we are talking about the "Juan Er" in "The Book of Songs". According to "Juan Er", it is the woman who misses her husband, and the husband who is thinking about returning home and has a hard journey.

Liu Zao was angry and bored in his heart, but on the surface he was thoughtful and eager to learn, without revealing his true thoughts at all.

Seeing this, Huan Kuang was very satisfied, thinking that the Son of Heaven was benevolent and wise.He also paid more attention to the lectures, first finished a paraphrase, and then expanded the psalm.Liu Zao originally thought that he would tirelessly emphasize women's virtues again, but he didn't want Huan Kuang to change his voice and talk about the hardships of the war.

"With the power of my strong Han Dynasty, I got General Wei seven battles and seven victories. From this point of view, it is not a great achievement." Huan Kuang's tone was light, with a trace of self-conceit.

Liu Zao was refreshed, not because he belittled the war, but because he listened to his arguments, it was quite refreshing.Liu Zao read many classics of various schools of thought, and guessed that Huan Kuangdang was a Confucian scholar.

Sure enough, Huan Kuang talked about the disadvantages of Emperor Wu's forced conquest of the Huns from a Confucian perspective.What Liu Zao heard in the past was praise, but Huan Kuang was derogatory.It's just that his reprimand was very euphemistic, not referring directly to Emperor Wu, but to the first emperor, who did not stop fighting after he unified the six kingdoms.

Liu Zao listened with great interest, she had heard many deeds of Emperor Wu, but rarely heard about Emperor Shi.At first glance, Qin Shihuang is quite similar to Emperor Wu, who is also good at military force and conquest.She didn't think what Huan Kuang said was right, but she was very interested in this argument.

"As Master Huan said, militarism is a campaign to subjugate the country. Why did Emperor Wu devote all his power to keep the Xiongnu at the gates of the country? My great Han is still strong and prosperous, and the country will last forever?" Liu Zao asked.

Huan Kuang raised the corners of his eyes and said calmly: "Guanzi said, 'There is a limit to taking the people, and there is a limit to using them. Although the country is small, it will be safe." As far as Emperor Zhao, Emperor Zhao was young, but he knew how to love the people, practiced the rule of virtue, and kept the people in good time, so that he could make the great Han strong again."

When he mentioned Emperor Zhao, his expression was gentle, and he obviously liked this former disciple very much.

After Liu Zao listened to it, he wanted to ask again, but Huan Kuang suddenly realized that he had gone too far, so he hurriedly returned to the poem, reciting it obsessively, and chattering about "the concubine Huai Wenwang".

Liu Zao was disappointed and had to keep silent.Huan Kuang was eloquent, talking dryly, took a sip of the warm soup, and continued talking non-stop.

In the next few days, Huan Kuang never broke away from the "Book of Songs" in his lectures.

Confucius said: "Three hundred poems can be summed up in one sentence, saying: Thinking is innocent."

The poems in it are the Book of Songs.There are more than 300 poems in the Book of Songs. Assuming that one chapter is taught every two days, it will take nearly two years to complete it.Liu Zao couldn't help feeling a little impatient.

But she knew it was useless to be impatient, so she didn't show it. Except that day when she summoned Xie Yi, she went to Bailiang Terrace to attend lectures every day. People are amazed.

Huan Kuang was the teacher of Emperor Zhao, and his teaching style was well known to many ministers in the court.It is appropriate to teach this method to an eight-year-old boy, but it is somewhat inappropriate to teach it to a fourteen-year-old Xinjun.

What's more, although the ministers didn't see this new emperor very much, after a few visits, they got a general impression that he was a quiet and calm person.Such a person must not be willing to be manipulated by others and has his own ambitions.Huan Kuang's teaching like that will definitely make His Majesty dissatisfied.

Unexpectedly, for half a month, the emperor had no dissatisfaction, and went to class in a down-to-earth manner. He was very respectful and showed no arrogance of the emperor.

The ministers didn't say anything on the surface, but they couldn't help sighing in private. When they first realized that His Majesty was calm, he must be an upright person. They didn't want to miss it. His Majesty was gentle and gentle.

Only Xie Yi, hearing these rumors, shook his head with a smile. His Majesty shunned the palace people that day and said angrily in her face, "I would rather worship Xie Xiang as my teacher than Huan Kuang as the emperor's teacher. At least thank you." Good-looking, amiable to look at."

The little emperor who said this did not have the arrogance and impetuosity that everyone praised, but he looked like a rabbit with red eyes and eager to bite.

Beginning of winter in October, entering winter.

For common people, winter is a time of leisure.In winter, there is no need for farming or harvesting. People worship their ancestors and tell the new year. Relatives and friends visit each other and have banquets and gatherings to deepen their friendship with each other.

But for the imperial court, it gradually got busy.On the day of the beginning of winter, the emperor led all the officials to welcome the winter weather, worship the heaven and the earth, pray for the protection of the ancestors, and pray to God for a good harvest in the coming year.

When Liu Zao offered sacrifices to heaven, he wore a heavy crown and worshiped God. He was extremely devout. The emperor's solemn expression infected all the ministers, and the ministers also followed his solemn expression to pray.

Cigarettes are lingering, rituals and music are bursting, and it is extraordinarily solemn.

After offering sacrifices to heaven, the ministers of the DPRK and China began to discuss the year name.This year is the year name of Emperor Zhao, which is the third year of Yuanfeng. In the coming year, the new year name will be changed.

Liu Zao only listened to it once during the Great Dynasty, and learned about some important events. After that, she still listened to Huan Kuang's lectures on Bailiangtai, and had no access to government affairs, and even the memorials submitted by the county and the state would not be sent to her. hands.

Her heart became more and more restless, and her trust in Xie Yi was constantly shaken.The Empress Dowager frequently sent palace people between Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace, and she herself often came here to greet the warmth.

Liu Zao gradually calmed down, and even felt that the queen mother was more credible, at least what she wanted was on the bright side, unlike Prime Minister Xie, who hid behind the mist, making it difficult for her to see clearly.

On the day of the winter solstice, Liu Zao sent a ceremony officer out of the palace early in the morning to meet his grandmother.

She originally wanted to wait for her side to make a decision, see her grandmother again, and even choose her grandmother's residence, but unfortunately, for three consecutive months, there was no progress in the palace, and she was still a person who could only listen to the "Book of Songs" lectured by the emperor's teacher endlessly. puppet.

In this way, it will not be easy to delay.

Before Emperor Wu, the winter solstice was the first year of the year, and the people celebrated the winter solstice, which was the Chinese New Year, and every household was very lively.After Emperor Wu used the summer calendar, he separated Zhengdan from the winter solstice.But on that day, the gentleman should be quiet and quiet, all officials should never do anything, he would not listen to the government, the army would be on standby, and the frontier fortress would be closed.

On such a day, Liu Zao naturally wanted to visit his grandmother.It's a pity that she couldn't come in person, and it was not easy to bring her grandmother into the palace, so she sent a ceremony officer to greet her grandmother on her behalf.

Liu Zao is a little nervous, since she entered the palace in mid-June, it has been nearly half a year, and she doesn't know how her family is doing, whether her grandmother is safe or not.As soon as the ceremony officer left, she felt restless.

It was almost noon, and the queen came.

Liu Zao was slightly surprised, and waited for the queen mother to say: "Today's winter solstice, when a family is reunited." She realized that she and the queen mother are "one family".

As soon as the Empress Dowager stepped into the palace, Liu Zao put away her impatience, gave up the throne, and sat down on her own, very respectful.

"This year is the first winter solstice after His Majesty ascended the throne. I wonder how Your Majesty spent the past years?" The Queen Mother turned slightly sideways, facing Liu Zao, and chatted with her in a slow tone.

In the winter of the year, the doors and windows of the Xuanshi Hall were closed, and a stove was burning. Liu Zao was afraid of the cold, and leaned slightly towards the stove.

"There are only me and my grandmother in the family, and the winter solstice is no different from the usual, and there is no noise." Liu Zao said.

It's no secret that she was raised by her grandmother.Uncle Liu Zao's family was weak, and his grandmother had a son and a daughter. During Emperor Wu's reign, the daughter was chosen as the son of the family and served in the uterus of the crown prince. The son died of illness soon after.Grandmother was alone.Later, with Liu Zao, although it was hard to raise the young child, I was infinitely comforted by her, and the days were not so lonely.

Liu Zao has a deep relationship with his grandmother, which is almost known to everyone.

The queen mother smiled and said: "It's a pity that the old lady cannot be brought into the palace. Your majesty can issue an imperial edict to add the old lady on the next spring day."

Adding a title to an old man will not be obstructed by courtiers.Liu Zao nodded and said, "What the Empress Dowager said is reasonable."

The emperor didn't talk much, and the empress dowager was not displeased. She seemed to have endless words, and she was born and not noisy, which would only make people feel more cordial.

"When I first entered the palace, I also felt that the rules in the palace were bound. Emperor Zhao was a person who obeyed the etiquette, and he followed the etiquette in everything. The ancient etiquette is complicated. Although it can show the royal style, but if there are too many, it will make people bored. Right now. It's a lot easier." Liu Zao has a stable temperament, but he doesn't like to act rigidly, except for the obligatory etiquette, the rest are very easy-going, as long as they are not rude.

There was agreement in the Queen Mother's words.Liu Zao smiled slightly, and said: "I am not as many as the late emperor."

Others don't say much.
