[Hanwu] Attack and retreat

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty was in poor health, so he asked the prince to take over the dynasty on his behalf.For the princelings, this news is really looking forward to turning their hair gray, but for the empress dowagers... but walking on the stone road with bare feet, the more they walk, the more uncomfortable they are.

No, as soon as the emperor's imperial edict was issued, the queen mother came to the door.

Because of King Liang's affairs, the relationship between Emperor Han Jing and Queen Mother Dou was not as good as before, but the power of Queen Mother Dou was there, and Emperor Han Jing's respect for Queen Mother Dou was still there.

The Empress Dowager sat in front of Emperor Han Jing, looked at the uncomfortably complexioned emperor, and asked, "Is the emperor well?"

"It's okay to bother the queen mother to worry about it." When meeting the queen mother, the first sentence the queen mother said to him was not about the government or the king of Liang, which surprised the emperor a little.

"There are so many things in the court, we can't be left alone for a day." The emperor was surprised that there was no time for a sip of tea, and the queen mother had already picked up the topic. "If the emperor is in good health, he must not relax state affairs."

"The prince is not young anymore, it's time to get involved with state affairs." The emperor said casually: "I can't play in the palace every day. Don't worry, the queen mother, I know it well."

The queen mother said: "Has the emperor decided to pass the throne to the crown prince?"

"If the throne is not passed on to the crown prince, who can it be passed on to?"

The queen mother took a deep breath, and she was even more sure that the death of King Liang was caused by the emperor. A wave of anger was burning in her heart, but she kept pouring water on it, telling herself to calm down.

The emperor glanced at the queen mother, and couldn't help but said: "Could it be that the queen mother feels that Che'er can't afford this position?"

"The emperor's throne belongs to the emperor, so the emperor has the final say on who he wants to pass it on to." The queen mother said: "But the prince has just started to deal with state affairs after all, and it is decided not to let him mess around with many important matters."

The emperor moved his mouth, and just about to say a few words for Liu Che, the queen mother said again: "Of course, the emperor knows it well."

The queen mother did not object to Liu Che's ruling?A bad feeling rose in the emperor's heart.

"Now it's the time of drought, and the people of several prefectures have jointly written to the court." The Queen Mother said: "I heard that the crown prince was furious at the court today. How about it?"

The emperor replied: "What is the governor?"

"...the crown prince made it." The queen mother glanced at the emperor, it was made by the emperor's son, how could she know?And now that the emperor and the crown prince are both together, she doesn't believe that this matter was not ordered by the emperor.

This is really wronging the emperor, and this is the first time the emperor has heard of it.He rubbed his chin and said, "It's a good way, but who is the governor going to send?" Sending people to send money is a technical job, and the crown prince has no officials to move, and the rest are not his people Even the queen mother's people are not under the control of the prince.

"This is really a joke. The crown prince proposed the method himself, but he doesn't know who to turn to." The queen mother said: "Since the emperor also agrees with the prince's statement, who does the emperor want to send?"

The emperor looked at the queen mother inquiringly, and asked, "What does the queen mother think?"

"Since the prince himself proposed it, let the prince go." The queen mother glanced at the emperor. "The emperor is still in good health, so don't show your temper. Let's go to court tomorrow."

The emperor's brows were just furrowed, and the queen mother said again: "It's a big taboo for the king not to court. If news about the emperor's health is spread, how will the officials of the court feel?"

"Disaster relief is a serious matter. The queen mother also said that the prince is just involved in state affairs. I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

"I think the prince has a unique view on this matter, and he will definitely be able to handle it well." The queen mother leaned towards the emperor, looked into the emperor's eyes and said: "If the emperor is worried, you can let the imperial army accompany you, don't forget the prince's hand There are also military orders, if you are still not at ease, you can choose another one from the court to accompany you."

"This……"

"I see that Chen Xu is not a bad kid, he is alert, so why not just him."

It turned out to be waiting for him here.The emperor frowned suddenly, and he also stared at the eyes of the queen mother, only to see the bright red anger reflected in those pupils.

"If the emperor thinks it's not appropriate, you can tell me that there is a better candidate in your mind."

"Don't the Empress Dowager feel that it is inappropriate for her to meddle in court affairs?"

"Your Majesty is blaming me for saying that?" The Queen Mother snorted. "This move is nothing more than pleading for the people. If the emperor thinks it is inappropriate, he will immediately put on his robe and go to the court. Don't let the little boy mess around."

The empress dowager returned to her palace after a while of responding to the emperor. The emperor was very angry and immediately summoned Liu Che.

Liu Che said bluntly: "There have been several months of drought, but no officials have reported it. Now that the victims of the disaster are rioting, they actually advocate force suppression instead of appeasing the victims. Such actions will only lose the hearts of the people."

"That's not what I want to hear. Now that the Queen Mother is determined to ask you to help the disaster, how do you treat it?" The emperor said: "What is that assassin, how did you come up with it?"

Liu Che naturally didn't dare to say that when he was discussing with Chen Xu, Chen Xu said it casually, so he could only say: "I was very angry at the time, so I said it casually, but I didn't know it... But now there are other ways besides this. way?"

"..." The emperor thought about it carefully. "You've already said that, and that's the only way to go now, but this is a murderous act, and the Queen Mother will definitely not let you go."

"You should think about yourself." Liu Che looked at the emperor with disgust. "You're so sick, it's easy for the Queen Mother to do anything to you."

"What are you talking about?" The emperor was even more disgusted. "If you were her, would you look for me first or you first?"

"None of them." Liu Che said, "I won't do stupid things."

"How many stupid things have you done?" The emperor rolled his eyes. "How many times have I wiped your ass."

"There are always times when you are young and ignorant." Liu Che sighed and said, "Okay, I will go to rescue the disaster."

"Have you figured it out?"

"It's a good opportunity to win the hearts of the people." Liu Che snorted, smiled, and said, "As long as I come back alive, I can ask for credit from you, and the officials in the court will treat me differently... But I am alone in this matter. It is enough to go, there is no need for Chen Xu to go with him."

"Then tell Chen Xu yourself." The emperor waved his hand. "Go and draw up the imperial decree yourself, I'm tired."

But tired after chatting for a while?Liu Che looked at the fallen emperor with some worry, and suddenly felt that his father's neck and wrists were much thinner.

"Father take good care of your health, Che'er will be back soon." Liu Che took the emperor's hand.

The emperor waved his hand in disgust, then shook his head as he watched Liu Che leave. "Silly boy, Chen Xu thinks more than you do."

Liu Che went to find Chen Xu with the edict he had drawn up, but Chen Xu spat on his head as expected by the emperor.
