Rebirth of Guo Jiashengtong
Chapter 70
Not long after Liu Xiu woke up, she fell asleep again.
While eating the barbecue in his hand, Guo Shengtong discussed with Deng Yu how to leave Huashan safely.
Let's be honest, roasted meat is really bad, especially when there is no grain of salt.Fortunately, she has been in the kitchen, so she knows what some seasoning plants look like.
In the wild, there are such natural plants that can be used as seasoning.Everyone had already eaten a few meals of barbecue without any seasoning, and now they ate this, and they felt so happy that they wanted to cry.
"The three personal guards left here last night. If everything goes well, we will be able to leave Huashan soon." Deng Yu said, "It's just that there are other things. Your Majesty's residual poison may become more troublesome as time goes on. Don't say it now. It’s the comfrey that’s lost, even if it’s still there, there’s no earthen pot to cook medicine in.”
"So we have to go back to Luoyang City as soon as possible," Guo Sheng said, "I have an idea: instead of waiting, it's better to take the initiative."
"How does your empress want to take the initiative?" Deng Yu asked hurriedly.
"I'll take Ah Zheng out, and you and my younger brother will bring His Majesty here. After one day, we will hurry up and leave Huashan." Guo Sheng said.
"Your Majesty, you want to take risks again?" Deng Yu immediately understood, "My Majesty, why do you keep taking risks so often that the son of a daughter doesn't sit down?"
"Zhonghua, I remember you said that you already understand my temperament very well, so saying this is just a routine."
"No, not this time." Deng Yu said righteously, "You should stay with His Majesty. I will take Deng Cheng out and pretend to be Your Majesty to distract the pursuers."
"No, I have to go in person this time!" Guo Sheng said, "You accompany His Majesty back to Luoyang City."
"Unless Yu dies, I can't watch my mother take risks." Deng Yu said word by word, "My mother's womb is of my blood. If there is a mistake, Yu will not be able to atone for his crimes. If you have any thoughts, you can tell Yu. Yu will do it one by one, and will definitely disappoint the empress."
"What if I say I have to go in person?" The smile on Guo Shengtong's face gradually disappeared.
"Yu absolutely forbids it," Deng Yu said firmly, "If Madam wants to leave, Yu will immediately kill himself in front of Madam."
"Deng Zhonghua! Have you forgotten your identity? How dare you stop me?" Guo Shengtong threw the barbecue in his hand to the ground and said in a deep voice.
"Yu dare not! Only, my lady must not take risks this time!" Deng Yu said.
Guo Shengtong stroked his lower abdomen: "Is it because of the descendants of the Han Dynasty?"
Deng Yu nodded without hesitation: "My royal blood is very rare now, there must be no loss! Otherwise, the foundation of the country may be shaken."
"I've been thinking about one thing just now," Guo Sheng said, "You, Deng Zhonghua, are you on my side or Liu Xiu's side!"
Deng Yu was taken aback, he never expected that Guo Shengtong would call Liu Xiu by his name directly.After a while, he said: "I am on the side of the common people in the world."
Unfortunately, this is not the answer Guo Shengtong wanted.She wanted a clear answer: did he listen to her or Liu Xiu!This has a lot to do with how she uses him next.
"Then let me ask you again, if Liu Xiu and I were to die, who would you choose?" Guo Shengtong asked in a low voice.
Deng Yu was startled, and after a long time, he said: "Your Majesty and the empress are both the foundation of this country, nothing can happen, sir, Deng Yu chose to let himself die for the two."
"Pedantic!" Guo Shengtong sneered, "Or, you actually want me to die."
"No!" Deng Yu immediately retorted.
"If I don't die, then Liu Xiu will die." Guo Shengtong reminded coldly, "Zhong Hua is so smart, should he understand now?"
Deng Yu closed his eyes in pain: "My lady, what do you want to do?"
Guo Shengtong stood up and looked at this quiet valley like a peach garden. For a long time, when Deng Yu thought that there would be no answer, he suddenly heard her say: "I want a strong man without Liu Xiu."
----
Take a step back.
In the end, it was Deng Yu who went out of the valley with Guo Shengtong to lure the enemy.
Guo Shengtong handed the pill to Guo Kuang, and told him to take the pill carefully for Liu Xiu after he went to Luoyang City to find the imperial physician's order.Then, she repainted Liu Xiu's makeup, and Fang and Deng Yu left here.
The two of them carefully arrived at the first spring, and left a sign for the three guards who were looking for General Zun to sacrifice, and told them to go back to Luoyang City directly.Then Fang went all the way to find farmers to ask for some food.
The housewife of the peasant family was very enthusiastic. After receiving the money from Deng Yu, she immediately went to the kitchen to cook.
When the woman came out with the vegetables, she saw Deng Yu was kneeling inside to persuade Guo Shengtong, so persuading him that his voice was a little louder, but he shouted "Your Majesty".The hand of the woman holding the vegetables trembled, and when she listened carefully, she heard the words "Luoyang City" and "Xiu".
While she was listening, she suddenly saw that Deng Yu got up and pointed his sword at her neck, threatening her, and then told her whole family to get out and take the house for herself.
The woman's heart was turbulent and restless, because the sword light in Deng Yu's hand frightened the whole family and had to leave the house.Thinking of Deng Yu shouting words such as His Majesty and Luoyang City, he had a plan and ran to find the soldiers who had been searching from house to house some time ago.
As soon as they left, Guo Shengtong and Deng Yu immediately stepped up to feed, and then the two immediately ran further south, looking for the next family to start.Along the way, they kept giving people money, robbing people's houses, and robbing people to sue.The pursuers headed all the way to Tianshui, Weinan County, and went straight to Kaixiao's lair.
A day later, Guo Kuang and others took Liu Xiu out of the valley.All the way to Luoyang City in a low-key manner.Most of the soldiers of Kai Xiao and Gongsun Shu had already chased 'Liu Xiu' to the south.That's why the checkpoint to go out of Huashan is like a fake.When we arrived at Sanmenxia, we immediately bought an ox cart and hurried to Luoyang City...
----
When Guo Shengtong decided to lure away the pursuers himself from the very beginning, he thought of the plan of killing two birds with one stone.
Gongsun Shu and Kai Xiao did not cooperate closely at all, at most they cooperated temporarily because of the same interests.Among the pursuers, Gongsun Shu's men were not as many as Kai Xiao's.After all, this is Kai Xiao's territory, and he also has suspicions about Gongsun Shu: I'm afraid this is another story of "Yu Guo borrowing the way".
Now, under the name of 'Liu Xiu', she leads her pursuers to Tianshui County, and leaves an item in Tianshui, Kaixiao's old base camp, to prove her identity.Let Kai Xiao and Gongsun Shu bite off the rest.No matter what the result is, she will tear another hole in the already weak trust between the two.This is the best situation when she leads troops to attack the two thieves in the future - first let Gongsun Shu and Kai Xiao fight internally for a while.
Yes, she leads the army to attack the two thieves!Throughout the ages, many things have remained the same: whoever has the military power is the boss.Whoever can make the soldiers and generals agree with him is the winner.She thought about it carefully, instead of fostering a God of War in the Northland, why not become that God of War herself?
When her orders upset the soldiers more than the military talismans, I am afraid that the generals from the southern lands will no longer be able to threaten her.As for wooing Deng Yu, it is also necessary to confirm that he is of one mind with her: she is very clear about Deng Yu's character, he is an upright gentleman, and the Deng family is not comparable among the southern clans.It is well known that Deng Yu was highly valued by Liu Xiu.In addition, Deng Yu is the head of the civil servants, Da Situ, if he can be completely united with her, it will be a little easier to get things done in the future.As for Da Sima Geng Chun, he will definitely stand by her side when there is a dispute between the north and the south.
This is already enough!
Guo Shengtong naturally understood the threat of the family.If one day, the family can be wiped out...
The imperial examination system, the disciples of the emperor, still need to find ways to put it on the agenda.
"Your Majesty, it's already been put away," Deng Yu said, "Now we have to turn back to Luoyang City as soon as possible, as long as His Majesty wakes up, it will be very important."
Guo Shengtong's baby is more than four months old now, but it is very big.It was as big as June when I was pregnant with Liu Jiang.Nowadays, there are not many men who can have such a rich appearance, and it is almost the end of April, and it is already unreasonable to wear thick clothes.
Guo Shengtong had already prepared women's attire, and now when he was done, he changed into women's attire, and returned to Luoyang City in his original daughter's body in an ox cart...
----
Deng Yu was right, but Liu Xiu was already in a panic.
He woke up shortly after entering Luoyang City.The remaining poison on his body had disappeared, but his legs began to feel a little numb, and he couldn't stand up alone after sitting on his knees for a while.The result of the consultation with the imperial physician's order is that this situation may get worse day by day.
Liu Xiuru took medicine every day to try to relieve it, but the situation never improved for a moment.
Gradually, he began to step instead of walking, and gradually, he was the last one to get up when he went down.But he knew that the courtiers must have noticed...
Yin Lihua asked to see her many times, but he refused.The journey from Weiyang Palace to Changqiu Palace became very far away, so he had to make an exception to bring little Liu Jiang to Weiyang Palace to be raised.
Now, Jiang'er can clearly call out 'Father'. He is very cute, with big and dark eyes, and he seems to be able to talk, and he seems to be able to talk. People look at him and feel endless joy.He has been able to practice walking slowly by himself while leaning on the wall.When Liu Xiu was not dealing with government affairs, she would watch Liu Jiang pouting and slowly walking from one side of the wall to the other while leaning on the wall.
However, the Imperial Physician Order had already told him that the worst outcome might be lying on the bed and unable to move anymore.So this kind of comfort will not last long. Soon, Liu Xiu will start thinking about how to restrain the Southern Clan; how to let Jiang'er grow up safely and inherit the great rule.
And among them, every link needs the participation of Queen Guo Shengtong.
After all, only Guo Shengtong is the one who can really take care of him and Jiang'er in the future.
But he didn't have any news about Guo Shengtong. The general who "assassinated" was dead. He thought for a long time about the new "assassinated" general and decided to let Guo Kuang do it.But Guo Kuang is just getting started after all, and he needs to personally point out many things.Moreover, most of his assassinations were in ambush by his own people, if he could ambush in front of Gongsun Shu and Kai Xiao, he would not have to fight anymore, just stab them to death.
At the beginning, he thought about attacking Kui Chun, the son of Kai Xiao, but when he returned to Luoyang City, he found out that Kui Chun had already escaped from Luoyang City, and both the great Situ and the queen were "unwell" and only one big Sima Geng was left. Pure presiding over the overall situation.The most hateful thing is that when Na Kaichun left, he spread rumors that Liu Xiu had been seriously injured and died soon.It caused Luoyang City to be in chaos.
Speaking of this, Liu Xiu had to admire her vision back then.When he was in Hebei, when he first came into contact with Buddhism, he thought of carrying it forward and using it to fool the people.Then he really did so, and now, his vision saved Luoyang City once.
When the people of Luoyang City were panicking, Master Zhuruo opened charcoal to give lectures.Teach the number of destiny to explain in detail the inevitability of Liu Xiu's safety. Invisibly, they cooperated with Geng Chun to stabilize Luoyang City.
And after Liu Xiu returned to Luoyang City, Master Zhuruo's prestige became even greater than before.
Seeing that January was about to pass, Liu Xiu had no news of Guo Shengtong at all. He also asked Master Zhuruo, although Master Zhuruo said he was fine.But after waiting for a long time without any news, Liu Xiu had already started to have the worst plan in her heart.
Sighing, he picked up the pen and was about to write on the silk when he suddenly heard a commotion outside: "Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law!"
"Let Kuang'er in quickly!" He hurriedly called Cheng Li to pick him up.
After a while, Guo Kuang ran in, sweating all over his face, looking very eager: "Brother-in-law, sister is back!"
"What?" The pen in Liu Xiu's hand landed on the silk, splashing ink flowers.He looked at Guo Kuang: "Tong'er is back?"
----
"I think the Guo family is probably not in the palace." Yin Lihua walked slowly, "Your Majesty has returned to the palace for more than a month, and the crown prince Liu Jiang has also been taken to Weiyang Palace to be raised, but the Guo family has been there for two full months. I haven't shown her face, at first I thought she was too vigilant, but now, I think she probably had some kind of accident, and it's even possible that she wasn't in the palace at all!"
"What the nobleman said is true," Jiang Nu said, "But, what can we do?"
"What are you doing?" Yin Lihua sneered, "I can't do anything! The mountains and rain are about to come and the building is full of wind! For some reason, Your Majesty has never seen me in the past month. He never left Weiyang Palace every day when he went to court. Half a step! I am afraid that there are very few people in this world who understand Your Majesty except me: I am not giving birth to a prince but a princess, and His Majesty should come to the Yilan Palace to let everyone know that my Nandi clan is here. The noble ladies in the palace are favored by him. This is the attitude His Majesty should have! It is also the proof that I can live a pretty good life in this Han palace!"
"But now that His Majesty has returned to the palace for more than a month, not only does he not come to my Yilan Palace, but he also does not see the Eldest Princess, and he does not see me. This already shows that there is a big trouble." Yin Lihua said, "At first, I thought that Your Majesty wanted to choose another one. A noble lady from the South took my place, but after hearing that His Majesty began to promote and reuse the clans from the North in the court hall, I realized that the balance that His Majesty wants now is to elevate the status of the North clan and demean my South. The local clan. In this way, there is only one reason to explain all this. That is: the Guo family who was born in the north has encountered some serious troubles, and it may have endangered her life. Therefore, in the harem, there is no one who can replace her Your Majesty will start suppressing me when you are a noble lady."
"My lord, you..." Jiang Nu felt very distressed for Yin Lihua.
"I can only do nothing now and just wait and see what happens. However, paper can't cover fire, and this matter will be exposed sooner or later!" Yin Lihua sighed, "By then, I don't know what it will be like."
"Our Majesty has a lot of checks and balances. In this palace, no matter whether the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind, everyone is trying to balance the forces of the two places. Perhaps, even my Yin family is now withered, It's also the result of balance..." Yin Lihua said with a sad smile, "After all, there are only two people in the Guo family."
A wise Lord Guo, a dull Guo Kuang; a dull old lady Yin, and a clever Yin consciousness.
What a balanced situation!
The more Yin Lihua thought about it, the more amusing she felt, she laughed a few times, and then suddenly said: "But the balance is always to be broken, just look at which end is out of balance first!"
"My lord, my lord!" Little Huangmen hurried over.
"It's so unreasonable to be in such a panic!" Jiang Nu scolded angrily.
The little yellow gate approached and said: "Your Honor, I seem to have seen just now that a woman with a big belly entered Weiyang Palace!"
'bang bang'
Xiaoji fell to the ground.
Yin Lihua's voice trembled slightly: "What? The woman entered Weiyang Palace with her big belly?!"
----
The sky in the palace has changed.
Empress Guo Shengtong reappeared in front of people, with a four-month-old belly, and the imperial doctor ordered that they were twins!
As soon as this remark came out, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the entire Luoyang City was a sensation.The emperor and empress are happy and have twins.Master Zhuruo also asserted that the twins are the auspicious appearance of dragon and phoenix.
This news, not to mention others, even Liu Xiu felt very auspicious when he heard it.But amidst the joy of the city, the noble man in Yilan Palace had a gloomy expression, not out of jealousy, but out of fear.
"Hurry up and hand it over to the Patriarch," she handed the wax pill to Xiao Huangmen, "Hurry up."
"promise!"
----
Yin Zhi broke open the wax pill and pulled out the silk from it.
"Uncle," Mrs. Deng brought warm wine, "what's the matter?"
"Look." Yin Zhi read the words on the silk and handed it to Mrs. Deng.
Deng Shi glanced at it, and was also surprised: "Li Hua is right."
"Yeah, it makes sense," the Yin Consciousness sighed, "It's not for balance, so why? Sincerely?"
A mocking smile appeared on Deng's face: "Sincerely? If His Majesty had one, he would not be His Majesty."
"Everyone was attracted by the news that Mrs. Guo was pregnant and had twins, but I discovered that Deng Yu, who had been 'ill' for more than two months, also began to appear in front of people slowly." I'm afraid that something has happened that we don't know about."
Deng stepped forward and hugged him: "Second Uncle."
Yin Zhi patted the back of her hand lightly: "Now, I want to move, but I can't see clearly what happened. I'm afraid that the more I move, the more dangerous it will be. But, maybe we can persuade the clan who intends to send noble girls into the palace to take good action." gone."
"Na Lihua..."
"Nowadays, someone has to make a move to know what His Majesty is planning."
----
They don't know what Liu Xiu's abacus is, but Guo Shengtong knows it now--
"Tong'er, to tell you the truth, I don't have much feeling in my legs now. The imperial doctor ordered that the next step is the waist, and then upwards. Slowly, I may not be able to move anymore." Liu Xiu stopped her desire Out of the mouth, "Tong'er, listen to me, don't cry, be the child in your heart. This is because the residual poison has not been cleaned up in time. Don't cry, don't shed tears..."
"Uncle Wen..." Guo Shengtong said dumbly, and tears fell on the back of Liu Xiu's hand in strings.
Liu Xiu was also a little sad, and he took her into his arms: "Don't cry, I don't know how many days I have left, so you have to grow up as soon as possible and protect our borders as soon as possible. The country I have worked so hard for is only Only Jiang'er is eligible to sit."
He looked at the wall where Liu Jiang practiced walking, and there seemed to be that smiling, very beautiful child in front of his eyes. He was wearing a black and red-lined shirt, leaning on the wall, walking so earnestly, and did not cry when he fell down. I got up, and when I saw him, I stretched out my hand, calling out 'Father' to the child.
"Jiang'er is a smart child. I believe he can take on the role of my great man. But Tong'er, Jiang'er is too young. I can't protect him in the future. Only you can grow up quickly so that we can protect our children. Tong'er is twenty this year?"
Guo Shengtong nodded: "Uncle Wen, you..."
"Don't talk, don't cry, you are the mother of my big man, how can you act like a child?" Liu Xiudao, "You will protect three in the future, Jiang'er, and two younger ones."
As he said, he couldn't bear it: "How can I rest assured? You are all so small."
Once, Liu Xiu, who felt very at ease because of his sweet wife and young son, hated all of this very much: If he was given a little more time, even ten years, when Jiang'er was older, he could see with his own eyes what was in Guo Shengtong's womb. How wonderful would it be to have two babies born?
He suppressed the pain in his heart, and continued: "I have begun to weaken the power of the Southland. Although Kuang'er has a heart of a child, it is a pity that he is too young and too simple. You have to listen to Master Guo's words more. If you understand something, ask her more. Although you are pregnant now, from tomorrow, you should take some time to go to court with me. I will set up a screen behind the throne, and you will listen carefully there. If you have any doubts , You can ask me after you go to court. When I am reviewing the memorial, you'd better read it and try to review it. Although I will stand up to the lonely minister, you must know, don't be deceived."
Guo Shengtong never imagined that Liu Xiu would really do such a thing!
Although she knew that everything he did was to ensure that the country would not fall into the hands of people who were not of his blood after a hundred years.But no matter what, she couldn't help being moved by Liu Xiu's paternal love towards Liu Jiang!
"Geng Yan has a younger sister, who is thirteen this year, and Kuang'er is fifteen. I came back this time and told Mr. Guo to marry that daughter. Geng Yan's younger sister is from the same mother as him. Please take care of Kuang'er. Treat her better, and in the future Geng Yan can protect you, Tong Jianger." Liu Xiu counted it carefully, "Deng Yu is my confidant general, trustworthy, but don't use martial arts, and his family is powerful. Why don't you let Jianger worship you?" He is the prime minister. In this way, the Deng family can be brought over. Geng Chun is from the Northland, but one cannot fully trust him, for fear that he will have an affair in the future, so he should not be included in the list of Tuogu's ministers. Feng Yi can't be trusted , this person may have a different heart, otherwise he will not allow his subordinates to call himself the king of Guannei, you need to be careful. Wu Han is a reckless man, and he has stains, so he can use him to fight in the battlefield. But he cannot give more real power."
"There are four ministers I proposed to entrust the orphans: Geng Yan, Deng Yu, Kou Xun and the elder sister Liu Huang." Liu Xiudao, "Among them, Geng Yan asked Guo Kuang to marry his younger sister, Deng Yu asked Jiang'er to worship him as his father-in-law, and Kou Xun tuned Back to Luoyang City, for Luoyang Yin, the elder sister will be the godmother of the child in your womb. Geng Yan is a military general with strategies, but unless Geng Chun is too arrogant, he will not be the chief disciple for Geng Yan, so that he can be with Geng They are pure mutual restraint. They are good friends, so I want them both to be military generals: but one is the royal family, and the other is the head of the generals. Deng Yu can be trusted, his weakness is the common people in the world, no matter when, you only need to use this If you have a reason, you can order whatever you want, even if you let him kill himself, he will not refuse. Kou Xun is upright by nature and cannot tolerate sand, but he has always admired you. I chose him to restrain Deng Yu. You You need to know how to check and balance the two of them."
"Eldest sister is trustworthy, reckless by nature, and is my close relative. If there is something that needs to be done, let her go. Not only do you not need to offend anyone, but you can also get things done. Younger sister, I already have a different heart. For her , I have already planned, you don’t need to worry about it.” Liu Xiu suddenly sighed, “That’s all for today, and in the future, I will tell you about the weaknesses of the other generals and how to check and balance them. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand now, just remember, remember, remember.”

Princess Ningping's mansion.
"I seem to hear Yin'er crying," Liu Boji woke up from the dream, "Dimensional, where is Yin'er?"
Li Tong turned around and hugged his wife: "It's okay, it's okay, Yin'er was carried down by the nanny, he had enough milk and fell asleep."
Liu Boji took a deep breath: "I won't sleep, it's almost Xu'er, why hasn't Xu'er come back yet?"
"You've become much weaker since you gave birth to Yin'er. You'd better rest first. I'll go and have a look." Li Tong was also a little puzzled, and after comforting his beloved wife, he got up and went out.
He had just closed the door of the bedroom when the butler rushed in: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It's not good!"
"Why are you making such a loud noise?" Li Tong was taken aback.
"Mr. Lang!" The next servant girl rushed over, "Mr. Lang! The little Mr. Lang is drowning!"
'boom'
There was a loud bang in the bedroom.
Li Tong was so frightened that he immediately opened the door, only to see Liu Boji fell to the ground.He rushed over in a hurry: "Bo Ji, Bo Ji! Hurry up, go get the imperial physician's order!"
----
Sitting in Weiyang Palace, Liu Xiu listened to the report from the guards, and only sighed softly: "Go down."
He picked up a pen, gently wrote the three characters Liu Boji on the paper, and then erased the name: "Little sister, don't blame me, you have already forgotten that you are a descendant of the Liu family. Now you are devoted to the Li family, if you don't , I am afraid that you will make irreparable mistakes in the future."
"Your Majesty!" Cheng Li hurried into the hall with a wax pill in his hands, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report!"
Liu Xiu took the wax pill from his hand, opened it and took a look: "Quickly, quickly pass on that Geng Chun, Deng Yu, Chen Jun and others are coming to Weiyang Palace, quickly pass on!"
Cheng Li was startled, and hurriedly promised to step back.
"Wait, go and invite the empress and princes to Weiyang Palace!" Liu Xiu added, "Quick, quick!"
After Cheng Li left, Liu Xiu still frowned deeply: "Kai Xiao actually took refuge in Gongsun Shu!"
----
In fact, the letter said two things: first, Kai Xiao rebelled; second, Kai Xiao was defeated by Ji Zun in less than three days after rebellion, and then he took refuge in Gongsun Shu and became Shuoning. king.He also sent tens of thousands of soldiers to him to continue fighting with him.
In order to avenge his shame, Kai Xiao now set up a killing situation, intending to kill Ji Zunzhi's army completely, and then directly stab into Luoyang City through Sanmenxia.
And this strategy is now in the hands of Liu Xiu, without him, because this letter was sent by Ma Yuan, the counselor next to Kai Xiao!
When Ma Yuan came to visit Liu Xiu before, he had a great impression of Liu Xiu.
After he returned to Tianshui County, he kept persuading Kaixiao to surrender as he had promised Liu Xiu before.Even in order to prove that Liu Xiu is indeed a wise king, he did not hesitate to belittle the great ancestor Liu Bang to highlight Liu Xiu's advantages.At that time, Kai Xiao felt that Ma Yuan was unreliable. He wanted to be the emperor, and he didn't want to be a virtuous minister.
Therefore, he left Ma Yuan and went to find other celebrities. Maybe Gongsun Shu proclaimed himself emperor first, and he always felt that he was not inferior to Gongsun Shu, and he would definitely be able to proclaim himself emperor smoothly.It's a pity that Ma Yuan was originally the best candidate because his reputation is loud enough.
After Kai Xiao took the next best thing, he still kept bumping into walls, but unfortunately everyone told him: Don't think about it.Even to prove this point, many famous people left Tianshui County one after another.
Going round and round, in the end no matter whether Kai Xiao was satisfied or not, only Ma Yuan remained.
No one supported the matter of proclaiming the emperor, so Kai Xiao could only postpone it, but at this time, Liu Xiu sent him a letter, telling him that he was going to beat Gongsun Shu, and you'd better be a vanguard official.
This letter almost caused Kai Xiao to die of a heart attack: Gongsun Shu, he can't move, otherwise he will lose his allies if he wants to become emperor in the future. He understands the truth, but if he doesn't agree, Liu Xiu What should I do if I take him under the knife first?
Kai Xiao thought about it, and finally came up with a very shameless solution: He told Liu Xiu that there was a guy named Lu Fang in Liangzhou who became emperor by relying on the power of the Huns, and he always wanted to beat me. Gongsun Shu, as long as I leave Tianshui County with my front foot, Lu Fang will definitely rush in with my back foot. It will be a trivial matter that my whole family will be killed by then, but it will be a major event that the people of Tianshui County will suffer from the war.Therefore, for the safety of the people, I cannot send troops to fight Gongsun Shu.
Then, in order to show that he and Liu Xiu were of one mind, he even sent his only son, Kui Chun, to Luoyang City.Liu Xiu and other soldiers let him go temporarily because he was willing to give up his son.Liu Xiu took people to beat Gongsun Shu.
Liu Xiu took people to Chengdu to beat Gongsun Shu, and he was seriously injured soon after, and then there was the matter of Guo Shengtong looking for Liu Xiu thousands of miles away.But Guo Shengtong was in Huashan at that time. In order to divert the tiger away from the mountain, he pretended to be Liu Xiu, went fishing with Deng Yu, and led the pursuers to Tianshui County.He also left a token that can prove that he is Liu Xiu.
'Liu Xiu' ran all the way from Huashan to Tianshui County, accidentally left her ID card, and then disappeared mysteriously? !
This made the sergeants Gongsun Shu sent to Huashan to arrest Liu Xiu extremely excited, and they immediately told Gongsun Shu about the situation.Gongsun Shu heard the words but was dissatisfied. He asked Kai Xiao to hand over Liu Xiu. How could Kai Xiao hand it over?
His son had already returned to Tianshui County, plus the fact that Liu Xiu was seriously injured was very true, and Ma Yuan went to Luoyang City and became surrounded by Liu Xiu, and other things were superimposed.
Kai Xiao's head became hot, and he finally decided: turn against Liu Xiu!
Ji Zun found out about his rebellion before he started fighting.There is no other reason, because the three personal guards found Ji Zun, and Ji Zun went to Huashan to rescue Jia in private, but he failed to save Jia, but saw a change in Huashan Kaixiao's soldiers and horses.Ji Zun immediately sent spies, then turned his head, and went out of Huashan to beat him by surprise.
Kai Xiao's strength was greatly weakened, and seeing that Ji Zun was coming more and more fiercely, he had no choice but to take refuge in Gongsun Shu.
Gongsun Shu readily accepted Kai Xiao's refuge, and then gave him troops to avenge him.Now, it's time to close the door again.
Liu Xiu curled up her fingers and lightly clasped the table, with an unknown light flashing in her eyes: "At this time, if I can go on a personal expedition, I will definitely get twice the result with half the effort and spread my reputation all over the world, but it's a pity that I am now..."
"What's so difficult about this?" Guo Shengtong came in from outside the hall, "Uncle Wen is inconvenient, so I will do it for Uncle Wen himself!"
While eating the barbecue in his hand, Guo Shengtong discussed with Deng Yu how to leave Huashan safely.
Let's be honest, roasted meat is really bad, especially when there is no grain of salt.Fortunately, she has been in the kitchen, so she knows what some seasoning plants look like.
In the wild, there are such natural plants that can be used as seasoning.Everyone had already eaten a few meals of barbecue without any seasoning, and now they ate this, and they felt so happy that they wanted to cry.
"The three personal guards left here last night. If everything goes well, we will be able to leave Huashan soon." Deng Yu said, "It's just that there are other things. Your Majesty's residual poison may become more troublesome as time goes on. Don't say it now. It’s the comfrey that’s lost, even if it’s still there, there’s no earthen pot to cook medicine in.”
"So we have to go back to Luoyang City as soon as possible," Guo Sheng said, "I have an idea: instead of waiting, it's better to take the initiative."
"How does your empress want to take the initiative?" Deng Yu asked hurriedly.
"I'll take Ah Zheng out, and you and my younger brother will bring His Majesty here. After one day, we will hurry up and leave Huashan." Guo Sheng said.
"Your Majesty, you want to take risks again?" Deng Yu immediately understood, "My Majesty, why do you keep taking risks so often that the son of a daughter doesn't sit down?"
"Zhonghua, I remember you said that you already understand my temperament very well, so saying this is just a routine."
"No, not this time." Deng Yu said righteously, "You should stay with His Majesty. I will take Deng Cheng out and pretend to be Your Majesty to distract the pursuers."
"No, I have to go in person this time!" Guo Sheng said, "You accompany His Majesty back to Luoyang City."
"Unless Yu dies, I can't watch my mother take risks." Deng Yu said word by word, "My mother's womb is of my blood. If there is a mistake, Yu will not be able to atone for his crimes. If you have any thoughts, you can tell Yu. Yu will do it one by one, and will definitely disappoint the empress."
"What if I say I have to go in person?" The smile on Guo Shengtong's face gradually disappeared.
"Yu absolutely forbids it," Deng Yu said firmly, "If Madam wants to leave, Yu will immediately kill himself in front of Madam."
"Deng Zhonghua! Have you forgotten your identity? How dare you stop me?" Guo Shengtong threw the barbecue in his hand to the ground and said in a deep voice.
"Yu dare not! Only, my lady must not take risks this time!" Deng Yu said.
Guo Shengtong stroked his lower abdomen: "Is it because of the descendants of the Han Dynasty?"
Deng Yu nodded without hesitation: "My royal blood is very rare now, there must be no loss! Otherwise, the foundation of the country may be shaken."
"I've been thinking about one thing just now," Guo Sheng said, "You, Deng Zhonghua, are you on my side or Liu Xiu's side!"
Deng Yu was taken aback, he never expected that Guo Shengtong would call Liu Xiu by his name directly.After a while, he said: "I am on the side of the common people in the world."
Unfortunately, this is not the answer Guo Shengtong wanted.She wanted a clear answer: did he listen to her or Liu Xiu!This has a lot to do with how she uses him next.
"Then let me ask you again, if Liu Xiu and I were to die, who would you choose?" Guo Shengtong asked in a low voice.
Deng Yu was startled, and after a long time, he said: "Your Majesty and the empress are both the foundation of this country, nothing can happen, sir, Deng Yu chose to let himself die for the two."
"Pedantic!" Guo Shengtong sneered, "Or, you actually want me to die."
"No!" Deng Yu immediately retorted.
"If I don't die, then Liu Xiu will die." Guo Shengtong reminded coldly, "Zhong Hua is so smart, should he understand now?"
Deng Yu closed his eyes in pain: "My lady, what do you want to do?"
Guo Shengtong stood up and looked at this quiet valley like a peach garden. For a long time, when Deng Yu thought that there would be no answer, he suddenly heard her say: "I want a strong man without Liu Xiu."
----
Take a step back.
In the end, it was Deng Yu who went out of the valley with Guo Shengtong to lure the enemy.
Guo Shengtong handed the pill to Guo Kuang, and told him to take the pill carefully for Liu Xiu after he went to Luoyang City to find the imperial physician's order.Then, she repainted Liu Xiu's makeup, and Fang and Deng Yu left here.
The two of them carefully arrived at the first spring, and left a sign for the three guards who were looking for General Zun to sacrifice, and told them to go back to Luoyang City directly.Then Fang went all the way to find farmers to ask for some food.
The housewife of the peasant family was very enthusiastic. After receiving the money from Deng Yu, she immediately went to the kitchen to cook.
When the woman came out with the vegetables, she saw Deng Yu was kneeling inside to persuade Guo Shengtong, so persuading him that his voice was a little louder, but he shouted "Your Majesty".The hand of the woman holding the vegetables trembled, and when she listened carefully, she heard the words "Luoyang City" and "Xiu".
While she was listening, she suddenly saw that Deng Yu got up and pointed his sword at her neck, threatening her, and then told her whole family to get out and take the house for herself.
The woman's heart was turbulent and restless, because the sword light in Deng Yu's hand frightened the whole family and had to leave the house.Thinking of Deng Yu shouting words such as His Majesty and Luoyang City, he had a plan and ran to find the soldiers who had been searching from house to house some time ago.
As soon as they left, Guo Shengtong and Deng Yu immediately stepped up to feed, and then the two immediately ran further south, looking for the next family to start.Along the way, they kept giving people money, robbing people's houses, and robbing people to sue.The pursuers headed all the way to Tianshui, Weinan County, and went straight to Kaixiao's lair.
A day later, Guo Kuang and others took Liu Xiu out of the valley.All the way to Luoyang City in a low-key manner.Most of the soldiers of Kai Xiao and Gongsun Shu had already chased 'Liu Xiu' to the south.That's why the checkpoint to go out of Huashan is like a fake.When we arrived at Sanmenxia, we immediately bought an ox cart and hurried to Luoyang City...
----
When Guo Shengtong decided to lure away the pursuers himself from the very beginning, he thought of the plan of killing two birds with one stone.
Gongsun Shu and Kai Xiao did not cooperate closely at all, at most they cooperated temporarily because of the same interests.Among the pursuers, Gongsun Shu's men were not as many as Kai Xiao's.After all, this is Kai Xiao's territory, and he also has suspicions about Gongsun Shu: I'm afraid this is another story of "Yu Guo borrowing the way".
Now, under the name of 'Liu Xiu', she leads her pursuers to Tianshui County, and leaves an item in Tianshui, Kaixiao's old base camp, to prove her identity.Let Kai Xiao and Gongsun Shu bite off the rest.No matter what the result is, she will tear another hole in the already weak trust between the two.This is the best situation when she leads troops to attack the two thieves in the future - first let Gongsun Shu and Kai Xiao fight internally for a while.
Yes, she leads the army to attack the two thieves!Throughout the ages, many things have remained the same: whoever has the military power is the boss.Whoever can make the soldiers and generals agree with him is the winner.She thought about it carefully, instead of fostering a God of War in the Northland, why not become that God of War herself?
When her orders upset the soldiers more than the military talismans, I am afraid that the generals from the southern lands will no longer be able to threaten her.As for wooing Deng Yu, it is also necessary to confirm that he is of one mind with her: she is very clear about Deng Yu's character, he is an upright gentleman, and the Deng family is not comparable among the southern clans.It is well known that Deng Yu was highly valued by Liu Xiu.In addition, Deng Yu is the head of the civil servants, Da Situ, if he can be completely united with her, it will be a little easier to get things done in the future.As for Da Sima Geng Chun, he will definitely stand by her side when there is a dispute between the north and the south.
This is already enough!
Guo Shengtong naturally understood the threat of the family.If one day, the family can be wiped out...
The imperial examination system, the disciples of the emperor, still need to find ways to put it on the agenda.
"Your Majesty, it's already been put away," Deng Yu said, "Now we have to turn back to Luoyang City as soon as possible, as long as His Majesty wakes up, it will be very important."
Guo Shengtong's baby is more than four months old now, but it is very big.It was as big as June when I was pregnant with Liu Jiang.Nowadays, there are not many men who can have such a rich appearance, and it is almost the end of April, and it is already unreasonable to wear thick clothes.
Guo Shengtong had already prepared women's attire, and now when he was done, he changed into women's attire, and returned to Luoyang City in his original daughter's body in an ox cart...
----
Deng Yu was right, but Liu Xiu was already in a panic.
He woke up shortly after entering Luoyang City.The remaining poison on his body had disappeared, but his legs began to feel a little numb, and he couldn't stand up alone after sitting on his knees for a while.The result of the consultation with the imperial physician's order is that this situation may get worse day by day.
Liu Xiuru took medicine every day to try to relieve it, but the situation never improved for a moment.
Gradually, he began to step instead of walking, and gradually, he was the last one to get up when he went down.But he knew that the courtiers must have noticed...
Yin Lihua asked to see her many times, but he refused.The journey from Weiyang Palace to Changqiu Palace became very far away, so he had to make an exception to bring little Liu Jiang to Weiyang Palace to be raised.
Now, Jiang'er can clearly call out 'Father'. He is very cute, with big and dark eyes, and he seems to be able to talk, and he seems to be able to talk. People look at him and feel endless joy.He has been able to practice walking slowly by himself while leaning on the wall.When Liu Xiu was not dealing with government affairs, she would watch Liu Jiang pouting and slowly walking from one side of the wall to the other while leaning on the wall.
However, the Imperial Physician Order had already told him that the worst outcome might be lying on the bed and unable to move anymore.So this kind of comfort will not last long. Soon, Liu Xiu will start thinking about how to restrain the Southern Clan; how to let Jiang'er grow up safely and inherit the great rule.
And among them, every link needs the participation of Queen Guo Shengtong.
After all, only Guo Shengtong is the one who can really take care of him and Jiang'er in the future.
But he didn't have any news about Guo Shengtong. The general who "assassinated" was dead. He thought for a long time about the new "assassinated" general and decided to let Guo Kuang do it.But Guo Kuang is just getting started after all, and he needs to personally point out many things.Moreover, most of his assassinations were in ambush by his own people, if he could ambush in front of Gongsun Shu and Kai Xiao, he would not have to fight anymore, just stab them to death.
At the beginning, he thought about attacking Kui Chun, the son of Kai Xiao, but when he returned to Luoyang City, he found out that Kui Chun had already escaped from Luoyang City, and both the great Situ and the queen were "unwell" and only one big Sima Geng was left. Pure presiding over the overall situation.The most hateful thing is that when Na Kaichun left, he spread rumors that Liu Xiu had been seriously injured and died soon.It caused Luoyang City to be in chaos.
Speaking of this, Liu Xiu had to admire her vision back then.When he was in Hebei, when he first came into contact with Buddhism, he thought of carrying it forward and using it to fool the people.Then he really did so, and now, his vision saved Luoyang City once.
When the people of Luoyang City were panicking, Master Zhuruo opened charcoal to give lectures.Teach the number of destiny to explain in detail the inevitability of Liu Xiu's safety. Invisibly, they cooperated with Geng Chun to stabilize Luoyang City.
And after Liu Xiu returned to Luoyang City, Master Zhuruo's prestige became even greater than before.
Seeing that January was about to pass, Liu Xiu had no news of Guo Shengtong at all. He also asked Master Zhuruo, although Master Zhuruo said he was fine.But after waiting for a long time without any news, Liu Xiu had already started to have the worst plan in her heart.
Sighing, he picked up the pen and was about to write on the silk when he suddenly heard a commotion outside: "Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law!"
"Let Kuang'er in quickly!" He hurriedly called Cheng Li to pick him up.
After a while, Guo Kuang ran in, sweating all over his face, looking very eager: "Brother-in-law, sister is back!"
"What?" The pen in Liu Xiu's hand landed on the silk, splashing ink flowers.He looked at Guo Kuang: "Tong'er is back?"
----
"I think the Guo family is probably not in the palace." Yin Lihua walked slowly, "Your Majesty has returned to the palace for more than a month, and the crown prince Liu Jiang has also been taken to Weiyang Palace to be raised, but the Guo family has been there for two full months. I haven't shown her face, at first I thought she was too vigilant, but now, I think she probably had some kind of accident, and it's even possible that she wasn't in the palace at all!"
"What the nobleman said is true," Jiang Nu said, "But, what can we do?"
"What are you doing?" Yin Lihua sneered, "I can't do anything! The mountains and rain are about to come and the building is full of wind! For some reason, Your Majesty has never seen me in the past month. He never left Weiyang Palace every day when he went to court. Half a step! I am afraid that there are very few people in this world who understand Your Majesty except me: I am not giving birth to a prince but a princess, and His Majesty should come to the Yilan Palace to let everyone know that my Nandi clan is here. The noble ladies in the palace are favored by him. This is the attitude His Majesty should have! It is also the proof that I can live a pretty good life in this Han palace!"
"But now that His Majesty has returned to the palace for more than a month, not only does he not come to my Yilan Palace, but he also does not see the Eldest Princess, and he does not see me. This already shows that there is a big trouble." Yin Lihua said, "At first, I thought that Your Majesty wanted to choose another one. A noble lady from the South took my place, but after hearing that His Majesty began to promote and reuse the clans from the North in the court hall, I realized that the balance that His Majesty wants now is to elevate the status of the North clan and demean my South. The local clan. In this way, there is only one reason to explain all this. That is: the Guo family who was born in the north has encountered some serious troubles, and it may have endangered her life. Therefore, in the harem, there is no one who can replace her Your Majesty will start suppressing me when you are a noble lady."
"My lord, you..." Jiang Nu felt very distressed for Yin Lihua.
"I can only do nothing now and just wait and see what happens. However, paper can't cover fire, and this matter will be exposed sooner or later!" Yin Lihua sighed, "By then, I don't know what it will be like."
"Our Majesty has a lot of checks and balances. In this palace, no matter whether the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind, everyone is trying to balance the forces of the two places. Perhaps, even my Yin family is now withered, It's also the result of balance..." Yin Lihua said with a sad smile, "After all, there are only two people in the Guo family."
A wise Lord Guo, a dull Guo Kuang; a dull old lady Yin, and a clever Yin consciousness.
What a balanced situation!
The more Yin Lihua thought about it, the more amusing she felt, she laughed a few times, and then suddenly said: "But the balance is always to be broken, just look at which end is out of balance first!"
"My lord, my lord!" Little Huangmen hurried over.
"It's so unreasonable to be in such a panic!" Jiang Nu scolded angrily.
The little yellow gate approached and said: "Your Honor, I seem to have seen just now that a woman with a big belly entered Weiyang Palace!"
'bang bang'
Xiaoji fell to the ground.
Yin Lihua's voice trembled slightly: "What? The woman entered Weiyang Palace with her big belly?!"
----
The sky in the palace has changed.
Empress Guo Shengtong reappeared in front of people, with a four-month-old belly, and the imperial doctor ordered that they were twins!
As soon as this remark came out, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the entire Luoyang City was a sensation.The emperor and empress are happy and have twins.Master Zhuruo also asserted that the twins are the auspicious appearance of dragon and phoenix.
This news, not to mention others, even Liu Xiu felt very auspicious when he heard it.But amidst the joy of the city, the noble man in Yilan Palace had a gloomy expression, not out of jealousy, but out of fear.
"Hurry up and hand it over to the Patriarch," she handed the wax pill to Xiao Huangmen, "Hurry up."
"promise!"
----
Yin Zhi broke open the wax pill and pulled out the silk from it.
"Uncle," Mrs. Deng brought warm wine, "what's the matter?"
"Look." Yin Zhi read the words on the silk and handed it to Mrs. Deng.
Deng Shi glanced at it, and was also surprised: "Li Hua is right."
"Yeah, it makes sense," the Yin Consciousness sighed, "It's not for balance, so why? Sincerely?"
A mocking smile appeared on Deng's face: "Sincerely? If His Majesty had one, he would not be His Majesty."
"Everyone was attracted by the news that Mrs. Guo was pregnant and had twins, but I discovered that Deng Yu, who had been 'ill' for more than two months, also began to appear in front of people slowly." I'm afraid that something has happened that we don't know about."
Deng stepped forward and hugged him: "Second Uncle."
Yin Zhi patted the back of her hand lightly: "Now, I want to move, but I can't see clearly what happened. I'm afraid that the more I move, the more dangerous it will be. But, maybe we can persuade the clan who intends to send noble girls into the palace to take good action." gone."
"Na Lihua..."
"Nowadays, someone has to make a move to know what His Majesty is planning."
----
They don't know what Liu Xiu's abacus is, but Guo Shengtong knows it now--
"Tong'er, to tell you the truth, I don't have much feeling in my legs now. The imperial doctor ordered that the next step is the waist, and then upwards. Slowly, I may not be able to move anymore." Liu Xiu stopped her desire Out of the mouth, "Tong'er, listen to me, don't cry, be the child in your heart. This is because the residual poison has not been cleaned up in time. Don't cry, don't shed tears..."
"Uncle Wen..." Guo Shengtong said dumbly, and tears fell on the back of Liu Xiu's hand in strings.
Liu Xiu was also a little sad, and he took her into his arms: "Don't cry, I don't know how many days I have left, so you have to grow up as soon as possible and protect our borders as soon as possible. The country I have worked so hard for is only Only Jiang'er is eligible to sit."
He looked at the wall where Liu Jiang practiced walking, and there seemed to be that smiling, very beautiful child in front of his eyes. He was wearing a black and red-lined shirt, leaning on the wall, walking so earnestly, and did not cry when he fell down. I got up, and when I saw him, I stretched out my hand, calling out 'Father' to the child.
"Jiang'er is a smart child. I believe he can take on the role of my great man. But Tong'er, Jiang'er is too young. I can't protect him in the future. Only you can grow up quickly so that we can protect our children. Tong'er is twenty this year?"
Guo Shengtong nodded: "Uncle Wen, you..."
"Don't talk, don't cry, you are the mother of my big man, how can you act like a child?" Liu Xiudao, "You will protect three in the future, Jiang'er, and two younger ones."
As he said, he couldn't bear it: "How can I rest assured? You are all so small."
Once, Liu Xiu, who felt very at ease because of his sweet wife and young son, hated all of this very much: If he was given a little more time, even ten years, when Jiang'er was older, he could see with his own eyes what was in Guo Shengtong's womb. How wonderful would it be to have two babies born?
He suppressed the pain in his heart, and continued: "I have begun to weaken the power of the Southland. Although Kuang'er has a heart of a child, it is a pity that he is too young and too simple. You have to listen to Master Guo's words more. If you understand something, ask her more. Although you are pregnant now, from tomorrow, you should take some time to go to court with me. I will set up a screen behind the throne, and you will listen carefully there. If you have any doubts , You can ask me after you go to court. When I am reviewing the memorial, you'd better read it and try to review it. Although I will stand up to the lonely minister, you must know, don't be deceived."
Guo Shengtong never imagined that Liu Xiu would really do such a thing!
Although she knew that everything he did was to ensure that the country would not fall into the hands of people who were not of his blood after a hundred years.But no matter what, she couldn't help being moved by Liu Xiu's paternal love towards Liu Jiang!
"Geng Yan has a younger sister, who is thirteen this year, and Kuang'er is fifteen. I came back this time and told Mr. Guo to marry that daughter. Geng Yan's younger sister is from the same mother as him. Please take care of Kuang'er. Treat her better, and in the future Geng Yan can protect you, Tong Jianger." Liu Xiu counted it carefully, "Deng Yu is my confidant general, trustworthy, but don't use martial arts, and his family is powerful. Why don't you let Jianger worship you?" He is the prime minister. In this way, the Deng family can be brought over. Geng Chun is from the Northland, but one cannot fully trust him, for fear that he will have an affair in the future, so he should not be included in the list of Tuogu's ministers. Feng Yi can't be trusted , this person may have a different heart, otherwise he will not allow his subordinates to call himself the king of Guannei, you need to be careful. Wu Han is a reckless man, and he has stains, so he can use him to fight in the battlefield. But he cannot give more real power."
"There are four ministers I proposed to entrust the orphans: Geng Yan, Deng Yu, Kou Xun and the elder sister Liu Huang." Liu Xiudao, "Among them, Geng Yan asked Guo Kuang to marry his younger sister, Deng Yu asked Jiang'er to worship him as his father-in-law, and Kou Xun tuned Back to Luoyang City, for Luoyang Yin, the elder sister will be the godmother of the child in your womb. Geng Yan is a military general with strategies, but unless Geng Chun is too arrogant, he will not be the chief disciple for Geng Yan, so that he can be with Geng They are pure mutual restraint. They are good friends, so I want them both to be military generals: but one is the royal family, and the other is the head of the generals. Deng Yu can be trusted, his weakness is the common people in the world, no matter when, you only need to use this If you have a reason, you can order whatever you want, even if you let him kill himself, he will not refuse. Kou Xun is upright by nature and cannot tolerate sand, but he has always admired you. I chose him to restrain Deng Yu. You You need to know how to check and balance the two of them."
"Eldest sister is trustworthy, reckless by nature, and is my close relative. If there is something that needs to be done, let her go. Not only do you not need to offend anyone, but you can also get things done. Younger sister, I already have a different heart. For her , I have already planned, you don’t need to worry about it.” Liu Xiu suddenly sighed, “That’s all for today, and in the future, I will tell you about the weaknesses of the other generals and how to check and balance them. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand now, just remember, remember, remember.”
----
Princess Ningping's mansion.
"I seem to hear Yin'er crying," Liu Boji woke up from the dream, "Dimensional, where is Yin'er?"
Li Tong turned around and hugged his wife: "It's okay, it's okay, Yin'er was carried down by the nanny, he had enough milk and fell asleep."
Liu Boji took a deep breath: "I won't sleep, it's almost Xu'er, why hasn't Xu'er come back yet?"
"You've become much weaker since you gave birth to Yin'er. You'd better rest first. I'll go and have a look." Li Tong was also a little puzzled, and after comforting his beloved wife, he got up and went out.
He had just closed the door of the bedroom when the butler rushed in: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It's not good!"
"Why are you making such a loud noise?" Li Tong was taken aback.
"Mr. Lang!" The next servant girl rushed over, "Mr. Lang! The little Mr. Lang is drowning!"
'boom'
There was a loud bang in the bedroom.
Li Tong was so frightened that he immediately opened the door, only to see Liu Boji fell to the ground.He rushed over in a hurry: "Bo Ji, Bo Ji! Hurry up, go get the imperial physician's order!"
----
Sitting in Weiyang Palace, Liu Xiu listened to the report from the guards, and only sighed softly: "Go down."
He picked up a pen, gently wrote the three characters Liu Boji on the paper, and then erased the name: "Little sister, don't blame me, you have already forgotten that you are a descendant of the Liu family. Now you are devoted to the Li family, if you don't , I am afraid that you will make irreparable mistakes in the future."
"Your Majesty!" Cheng Li hurried into the hall with a wax pill in his hands, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report!"
Liu Xiu took the wax pill from his hand, opened it and took a look: "Quickly, quickly pass on that Geng Chun, Deng Yu, Chen Jun and others are coming to Weiyang Palace, quickly pass on!"
Cheng Li was startled, and hurriedly promised to step back.
"Wait, go and invite the empress and princes to Weiyang Palace!" Liu Xiu added, "Quick, quick!"
After Cheng Li left, Liu Xiu still frowned deeply: "Kai Xiao actually took refuge in Gongsun Shu!"
----
In fact, the letter said two things: first, Kai Xiao rebelled; second, Kai Xiao was defeated by Ji Zun in less than three days after rebellion, and then he took refuge in Gongsun Shu and became Shuoning. king.He also sent tens of thousands of soldiers to him to continue fighting with him.
In order to avenge his shame, Kai Xiao now set up a killing situation, intending to kill Ji Zunzhi's army completely, and then directly stab into Luoyang City through Sanmenxia.
And this strategy is now in the hands of Liu Xiu, without him, because this letter was sent by Ma Yuan, the counselor next to Kai Xiao!
When Ma Yuan came to visit Liu Xiu before, he had a great impression of Liu Xiu.
After he returned to Tianshui County, he kept persuading Kaixiao to surrender as he had promised Liu Xiu before.Even in order to prove that Liu Xiu is indeed a wise king, he did not hesitate to belittle the great ancestor Liu Bang to highlight Liu Xiu's advantages.At that time, Kai Xiao felt that Ma Yuan was unreliable. He wanted to be the emperor, and he didn't want to be a virtuous minister.
Therefore, he left Ma Yuan and went to find other celebrities. Maybe Gongsun Shu proclaimed himself emperor first, and he always felt that he was not inferior to Gongsun Shu, and he would definitely be able to proclaim himself emperor smoothly.It's a pity that Ma Yuan was originally the best candidate because his reputation is loud enough.
After Kai Xiao took the next best thing, he still kept bumping into walls, but unfortunately everyone told him: Don't think about it.Even to prove this point, many famous people left Tianshui County one after another.
Going round and round, in the end no matter whether Kai Xiao was satisfied or not, only Ma Yuan remained.
No one supported the matter of proclaiming the emperor, so Kai Xiao could only postpone it, but at this time, Liu Xiu sent him a letter, telling him that he was going to beat Gongsun Shu, and you'd better be a vanguard official.
This letter almost caused Kai Xiao to die of a heart attack: Gongsun Shu, he can't move, otherwise he will lose his allies if he wants to become emperor in the future. He understands the truth, but if he doesn't agree, Liu Xiu What should I do if I take him under the knife first?
Kai Xiao thought about it, and finally came up with a very shameless solution: He told Liu Xiu that there was a guy named Lu Fang in Liangzhou who became emperor by relying on the power of the Huns, and he always wanted to beat me. Gongsun Shu, as long as I leave Tianshui County with my front foot, Lu Fang will definitely rush in with my back foot. It will be a trivial matter that my whole family will be killed by then, but it will be a major event that the people of Tianshui County will suffer from the war.Therefore, for the safety of the people, I cannot send troops to fight Gongsun Shu.
Then, in order to show that he and Liu Xiu were of one mind, he even sent his only son, Kui Chun, to Luoyang City.Liu Xiu and other soldiers let him go temporarily because he was willing to give up his son.Liu Xiu took people to beat Gongsun Shu.
Liu Xiu took people to Chengdu to beat Gongsun Shu, and he was seriously injured soon after, and then there was the matter of Guo Shengtong looking for Liu Xiu thousands of miles away.But Guo Shengtong was in Huashan at that time. In order to divert the tiger away from the mountain, he pretended to be Liu Xiu, went fishing with Deng Yu, and led the pursuers to Tianshui County.He also left a token that can prove that he is Liu Xiu.
'Liu Xiu' ran all the way from Huashan to Tianshui County, accidentally left her ID card, and then disappeared mysteriously? !
This made the sergeants Gongsun Shu sent to Huashan to arrest Liu Xiu extremely excited, and they immediately told Gongsun Shu about the situation.Gongsun Shu heard the words but was dissatisfied. He asked Kai Xiao to hand over Liu Xiu. How could Kai Xiao hand it over?
His son had already returned to Tianshui County, plus the fact that Liu Xiu was seriously injured was very true, and Ma Yuan went to Luoyang City and became surrounded by Liu Xiu, and other things were superimposed.
Kai Xiao's head became hot, and he finally decided: turn against Liu Xiu!
Ji Zun found out about his rebellion before he started fighting.There is no other reason, because the three personal guards found Ji Zun, and Ji Zun went to Huashan to rescue Jia in private, but he failed to save Jia, but saw a change in Huashan Kaixiao's soldiers and horses.Ji Zun immediately sent spies, then turned his head, and went out of Huashan to beat him by surprise.
Kai Xiao's strength was greatly weakened, and seeing that Ji Zun was coming more and more fiercely, he had no choice but to take refuge in Gongsun Shu.
Gongsun Shu readily accepted Kai Xiao's refuge, and then gave him troops to avenge him.Now, it's time to close the door again.
Liu Xiu curled up her fingers and lightly clasped the table, with an unknown light flashing in her eyes: "At this time, if I can go on a personal expedition, I will definitely get twice the result with half the effort and spread my reputation all over the world, but it's a pity that I am now..."
"What's so difficult about this?" Guo Shengtong came in from outside the hall, "Uncle Wen is inconvenient, so I will do it for Uncle Wen himself!"
