Sixteen-year-old Liu Che, wearing the emperor's dragon robe and the emperor's celestial crown, climbed up the nine steps slowly to the sound of drums... From then on, a great talent came out of China, who led China to prosperity and expanded the territory of China. Unprecedented expansion, the unprecedented unity of the multi-ethnic emperor... In the back garden of Weiyang Palace, under the moonlight, Emperor Jing and his elder sister, the eldest princess, are enjoying the singing and dancing of seven beauties dressed like flowers and jade. The eldest princess and Emperor Jing watched while drinking. Seeing the emperor staring at them with a smile on her face, the eldest princess poured a cup of wine for the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, what do you think of them?"

Jing smiled and said, "Beautiful, very beautiful." The eldest princess took advantage of the situation and said: "Sister wants to present them to the emperor, but she is afraid that Li Ji will be unhappy..." The eldest princess glanced at Emperor Jing, only to see anger on Emperor Jing's face, but did not speak. Li Ji had already heard the news that the eldest princess had presented a beautiful woman to the emperor, so she rushed here angrily, followed by several attendants. Li Ji looked at these beauties, and saw that all of them were beauties in their twenties, and they were all charming. The emperor was staring at them in bewilderment, and couldn't help being jealous, and sneered at the eldest princess: "The eldest princess presented beautiful women to the emperor again!" Come on, the eldest princess has really good eyesight, but it's a pity that she is not offering talents to the emperor, but picking out beautiful women..."

"You..." The eldest princess raised her brows with anger. "Back off." Seeing that his sister was angry, Emperor Jing scolded Li Ji. Li Ji retreated with tears of grievance. "Your majesty, you see, a concubine is so rampant, if she is really made a queen, I don't know how tightly I will control the emperor." Emperor Jing still didn't speak, but an angry look was evident on his face. The eldest princess took advantage of the situation and said: "Mrs. Wang is much more virtuous than her. She only teaches Che'er to read every day and never meddles in other matters."

Emperor Jing was indeed dissatisfied with Li Ji. Every time the eldest princess gave him a beautiful woman, Li Ji would make a fuss.Since Empress Bo was abolished, I originally wanted to make Li Ji the queen, because she was the mother of the crown prince, but because of this, Emperor Jing had been hesitating in his heart. The eldest princess clearly wanted him to establish the wife of the king, but she was not the mother of the crown prince. , so Emperor Jing was not tempted. Seeing that Emperor Jing didn't express his opinion, the eldest princess thought that Mrs. Wang had nothing outstanding and could only work hard on Liu Che from a young age, so she said bluntly: "Liu Che is not only very smart, but also very sensible despite his young age. He looks like a king."

Emperor Jing was taken aback for a moment, and the words of the eldest princess could not be more understandable, but changing the crown prince is a major national event, even the emperor does not have the final say alone, not to mention abolishing the elder and establishing the younger is a major event that caused a sensation in the court, it is not so casual, so he said : "Liu Che is very smart and looks like an emperor. There were signs when he was born, but there is no reason to abolish Liu Rong. He has no fault at all. Let's talk about it later." Although the words of the eldest princess did not make the emperor make up his mind, it caught his attention. He had planned to make Li Ji, the mother of the prince, the queen, but now he decided to observe for a while before making a decision.

After the eldest princess returned to the mansion, she leaned against the window and looked at the magnificent palace under the sun and swore secretly: I have already married Tang Yihou, and my daughter must let her enter the palace and make her a queen, otherwise I will marry you. Or is it the emperor's sister, the queen mother's only daughter? Suddenly she had an idea, thought of a way, and then left the window, ready to rest. A few days later, the eldest princess went to the palace again and asked, "Your Majesty, how are those beauties?" "Well, it's not bad."

"Is Li Ji not happy? I heard that I'm having trouble with you again." The emperor did not speak after hearing this, but a shadow passed over his face. The eldest princess saw it and said: "Then Li Ji is too shameful. If she becomes the queen mother in the future, she will kill all those beauties. Does the emperor remember 'human pig'?" The history of Empress Lu killing Qi Ji and Ruyi immediately flashed in Emperor Jing's mind, and his face suddenly became sad. The eldest princess took advantage of the situation and said: "Then Empress Lu not only chopped off Qi Ji's hands and feet, made her blind and deaf, mutilated her as a human pig, and poisoned her son Ruyi to death..."

"Stop talking, sister." Emperor Jing stood up annoyed. "Brother, although you are the emperor, I am your elder sister. Since you were young, you listened to your elder sister most, so for people like Li Ji, my elder sister has to remind you." Emperor Jing let out a long sigh, and sat down again, "I know that too." The eldest princess accepted her as soon as she saw it, and with a wave of her hand, the attendants brought two more beauties. Here comes the air. The eldest princess said to the two beautiful beauties: "You must serve the emperor well."

"yes." "Your Majesty, my sister is retiring." Emperor Jing embraced the two beauties and went to the bedroom... Emperor Jing's body was getting weaker and weaker, and he was not feeling well that day. He lay on the dragon bed and thought about it. Li Ji. Li Ji had been neglected by the emperor for many days, and today she had to be summoned. Seeing the emperor lying on the bed, his face was weakened and his nose was sore, she couldn't help but shed tears.When Emperor Jing saw this, his heart moved, so he told her to sit on the head of the bed, stretched out his thin hand to hold her hand, and said: "After a hundred years, I will be most worried about these dozen or so emperors. You must treat their mother and child well." .”

I wanted to test Li Ji. If she could swear not to hurt them, then let her be the queen. After all, she is the biological mother of the prince.Unexpectedly, Li Ji shook off the emperor's hand and said loudly, "I've had enough of being angry with them, and I have to take care of their sons, you old dog, how did you give birth to so many cubs?" Emperor Jing was furious when he heard this, and was so angry that he almost fainted. "Go down for me, and I don't want to see you again from now on." After Mrs. Wang knew that Li Ji had offended the emperor, she thought that the opportunity had come, so she bribed Da Xingling, the minister in charge of etiquette, with a lot of money, and asked him to report to the emperor.The scheming Mrs. Wang knew what the emperor was most taboo about, and she was going to give Li Ji a fatal blow at this moment.

On this day, Emperor Jing supported his sick body and asked in a weak voice: "Is there anything else you want to report? If you don't, you will go to court." At this time, Da Xingling stepped forward and knelt down and said: "I want to report to the Holy Majesty, I have something to advise you. As the saying goes: Mother is more valuable than a son, and mother is more valuable than a son. Now the queen's seat is still vacant. , it should be a matter of course for the crown prince's mother to be made queen." When Emperor Jing heard this, he was furious, and he was bribed by Li Ji to become a lobbyist.In a rage, Emperor Jing slammed the case and shouted: "Is this what you should have said? Take him down for me." Emperor Jing wanted to abolish the crown prince simply to avoid further incidents, so he announced: "To ensure the stability of the country and society, I declare a decree to abolish crown prince Liu Rong. I respect this." All the officials were shocked when they heard that, the old prime minister and the court hero Zhou Yafu immediately came out and said: "My Majesty, the crown prince Liu Rong is the eldest son. I am afraid it is unreasonable to abolish the crown prince for no reason. Please take it back." The crown prince Taifu Wei Qihou Dou Ying also came forward and said: "My lord, the crown prince Liu Rong is not at fault, and he is the eldest son. Abolishing the elder and establishing the younger is not in line with the ancestral system. The old minister thinks that it will cause chaos. Please my emperor quickly revoke the order." The upright and upright Zhou Yafu was a general in the reign of Emperor Wen. He summoned the government and the people with the strictness of "hearing the general's order in the army, but not the emperor's edict".When Emperor Wen died, he told Prince Liu Qi (Emperor Jing) that if the country was in danger, Zhou Yafu could take on important responsibilities.Sure enough, during Emperor Jing's time, the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu rebelled. Zhou Yafu and Dou Ying made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, and were later named Taiwei and then Prime Minister.He firmly opposed the abolition of Prince Liu Rong. A few more ministers came out to dissuade him, but Emperor Jing got up and announced: "I have made up my mind to abolish the crown prince. You don't need to discuss too much. The court will be dismissed." The ministers looked at each other... "Your Majesty, Lord Dou Ying is asking to see you." Dou Ying, the nephew of Empress Dowager Dou, is both a relative and a hero. During the reign of Emperor Jing, he made great contributions to quelling the chaos of the seven kingdoms of Wu and Chu.Dou Ying was a clean and honest official, and he dared to speak out. He once offended Queen Mother Dou because he opposed Queen Mother Dou's plan to pass the throne to her youngest son, King Liang Xiaowang, after Emperor Jing died.Dou Ying is also the teacher of Prince Liu Rong, and he is highly respected.At this time, he tremblingly came to Emperor Jing to persuade him, and he reiterated: "Your Majesty, the old minister has no choice but to admonish him directly. Prince Liu Rong was abolished without fault. The old minister doesn't know the reason, so I will make it clear." Emperor Jing had nothing to say, he just said: "Leave this matter alone." "The old minister asks the emperor to take back his order." Emperor Jing still disagreed with the restoration of Liu Rong as the crown prince, so Dou Ying thanked him for his illness and stayed at home. After the crown prince was abolished, chaos arose. First of all, Emperor Jing's younger brother Liang Xiaowang Liu Wu rushed from the fiefdom to Chang'an Changle Palace overnight after hearing the news. "Mother." Liang Xiaowang almost knelt down at the knees of Empress Dowager Dou. "My Wu'er, you came just in time. Mother is about to send someone to call you." "Mother, I heard that the crown prince has been deposed." "Yes, so, mother must let you succeed." "Mother, you are too kind. Mother, do you know who the emperor wants to succeed?" "Maybe Liu Che, who is a beauty, will be the crown prince." "Then what can we do?" "Don't worry, think of a way slowly. Seeing that you are sweating, go wash up and have a rest. Mother will take care of you." King Liang Xiao still asked anxiously: "Mother, what can you do?" "You stay for a while and have a good relationship with your brother. The two of you have had a good relationship since childhood. As long as I ask, he won't object." King Liang Xiao was so happy that he plopped down on his knees: "My son thanked mother." "Get up quickly, you two brothers, I feel sorry for you as well. Since the crown prince has been abolished, the throne should belong to you from now on." Empress Dowager Dou came forward to ask Emperor Jing to let Liang Xiaowang be the crown prince. Emperor Jing wanted to make Liu Che the prince, but he couldn't disobey his mother.During the court meeting, he was strongly opposed by the minister Yuan An. He said: "Your Majesty, the succession of father and son is an ancestral covenant made by the ancestors. How can you allow your younger brother to succeed you?" Then several ministers objected, but Emperor Jing did not agree. Both Empress Dowager Dou and King Liang Xiao hated Yuan An to death, so they secretly sent someone to stab Yuan An to death.Emperor Jing wanted to kill King Liang Xiao, but was blocked by Empress Dowager Dou, so in a dilemma, Emperor Jing made a decisive decision to make Liu Che the prince. On this day, Emperor Jing went to Mrs. Wang's bedroom, ready to personally examine Liu Che.The young Liu Che was practicing sword in the courtyard. When the attendants saw the emperor coming, they were about to report when Emperor Jing waved his hand to stop him. Emperor Jing stood aside and watched. Seeing Liu Che's sword dance very well, especially the mighty demeanor that surpassed his age, he couldn't help but startled, thinking, this kid is really extraordinary, so he applauded: "Good swordsmanship!" Liu Che turned his head and saw that it was his father, he hurriedly put away his sword and knelt down to pay respects. "The emperor pays his respects to the emperor." "My son is free." Emperor Jing looked at his wide heaven and his pair of wise eyes dripping with sweat, and sighed in his heart: Sure enough, he has the appearance of an emperor.Then he asked, "Does Che'er want to be emperor?" Emperor Jing originally thought he would answer proudly: Of course he would.Unexpectedly, Liu Che said something that didn't match his age: "It's up to the heavens. My son would like to live in the palace every day and play in front of His Majesty, but he doesn't dare to enjoy himself in comfort and lose his duty as a son." Emperor Jing was shocked when he heard this, and asked, "Why doesn't my son dare to enjoy himself comfortably?" "My mother taught me "Shangshu Wuyi". If you want to learn from the Duke of Zhou, you must 'know the difficulties of farming' and know the pain of the common people." "Okay, that's a good point. 'Foretell the hardships of harvesting' and 'know the support of villains'. Very well said." When Emperor Jing arrived, an attendant had already reported to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly came out and knelt down to greet her: "My concubine pays my respects to the Holy Majesty." "Free of courtesy, flat body." The emperor arrived suddenly, Mrs. Wang was flattered, and hurriedly welcomed the emperor into the hall. Emperor Jing's beauties are like a cloud, and there is no time to take care of them. Mrs. Wang has long faded and loved her. If the eldest princess hadn't tried her best to praise her for being a virtuous and godson in front of Emperor Jing, it would be difficult for Emperor Jing to visit her small palace. After Emperor Jing took his seat, he looked at the open books on the table, which were "Shangshu" and a smile appeared on his face; he also looked at Mrs. Wang, and saw her standing respectfully, thinking, she really Unlike the proud Li Ji.Then he praised: "Che'er has Shaofu's teaching outside, and mother's teaching inside, no wonder he is so sensible." "Thank you for your compliment, the concubine is just fulfilling her duty as a mother." Emperor Jing took a look at Mrs. Wang, and saw that although her appearance was not as good as when she was young, she still had bright eyes and teeth, and a good manner, especially her attitude of humility and demeanor, which made Emperor Jing feel that she really had the demeanor of a mother who respects the world; Looking at Liu Che who was standing aside, he saw a kindness and softness in his eyes that was not like Liu Rong's fortitude, and finally a gleam of comfort flashed in his heart. Emperor Jing thought to himself, the mother is virtuous, and the son is resolute, so that the son will not be restricted by others in the future, so that he will not be restricted by the Queen Mother Dou like me.He also remembered that Empress Dowager Dou personally came out to ask my younger brother Liang Xiaowang to be the crown prince, but was opposed by Yuan An and other ministers, who urged him to violate the ancestral system and cause chaos... Thinking of this, he couldn't help sighing, and then asked Mrs. Wang: "How about making Madam a queen!" "Ah, the Holy Majesty can't." Mrs. Wang knelt down and said, "The concubine is not talented, I just hope that I can teach Che'er well, and when he becomes an adult, he can be the king of Jiaodong. Dare to think otherwise." After hearing this, Emperor Jing thought to himself: The more people strive to be emperors and queens, the more I disagree. So Emperor Jing finally made up his mind to abolish Prince Liu Rong and change the title of Linjiang King.Li Wang's wife was the queen, and Liu Che, the king of Jiaodong, was the prince. He was eight years old at the time. Ever since Prince Liu Rong was abolished, Li Ji was distraught and shed tears every day. She asked to see Emperor Jing several times but was rejected.Liu Rong changed his title to Linjiang King and was forced to take office. Before leaving, he bid farewell to his mother. "Mother, I don't know what mistake my child has made?" Liu Rong cried. "Son, you are not wrong, someone is harming us..." "Mother, after the child is gone, you have to take care of yourself." Liu Rong knelt down to his mother. "My child...what's the matter? Why did God suddenly change his mind and no longer bless us..." "Mother……" Mother and son hug each other and cry... After Liu Rong left, Li Ji lived alone in the palace, shedding tears every day, crying sadly... On this day, the haggard Li Ji was sitting under the window and weeping sadly, recalling the luck of being favored by the emperor when she was young and the honor of her son becoming the crown prince, scenes flashed in her mind... But once back to reality, looking at the deserted palace, the tears flowed down again... The food was on the table, but she didn't want to use it. Li Ji hated the eldest princess, the emperor, the wife of the king, and Liu Che... She hated these people who took away her happiness. Her son was originally a good prince, but why did the situation change suddenly? Hmph, it must be her conspiracy. This wicked woman... At this time, Sima Shi, Li Ji's mother, came in, and seeing her daughter was sad again, she couldn't help but also shed tears. "Mother, my life is really miserable. It was the eldest princess who caused me to suffer. She is too domineering. It is because I don't want her daughter to be the princess that it led to this end. However, I will never regret it, my Even if the son is a bachelor, he doesn't want her daughter to be his daughter-in-law." "The food is cold, eat it quickly! You are too willful." "I do not want to eat." "If you think about it, Rong'er is still alive, and he is still the King of Linjiang. As long as the green hills are here, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood. Maybe there will be a bright future in the future." Suddenly the younger brother ran in and shouted: "Mother, sister, it's not good, Liu Rong committed suicide!" "Ah!" Li Ji fainted... After Li Ji woke up, she asked with tears, "What's going on? What crime did he commit?" "Sister, because he expanded the palace and occupied the ancestral temple, he was imprisoned...so...he committed suicide." "My God..." Li Ji fainted again in despair. Not long after, Li Ji died of anger. On this day, Emperor Jing ascended to the palace to discuss matters.All civil and military officials stood at the bottom, and the Ting Wei came out and said: "Report to Your Majesty, I have recently handled a very difficult case, please express it to your Majesty." "Come on." Emperor Jing said. "Yes. This is a murder case. The murderer is called Fangnian. Because his stepmother killed his biological father, he killed his stepmother. According to the law, Fangnian should be sentenced to high treason for killing his mother. But I feel that something is wrong, so I ask the Holy One to make a clear judgment." Emperor Jing said: "It's a bit difficult to judge, let the prince judge." The crown prince Liu Che came out and reported: "My Majesty, my son thought that the reason why the stepmother became a mother was because his father married her. But she killed Fangnian's biological father and broke the relationship between mother and child, so Fangnian killed her. The death of a stepmother can only be punished as a common crime of homicide, not a crime of treason." After hearing this, Emperor Jing said: "The sentence is good. The 'crime of treason' in Fangnian was changed to 'crime of abandoning the market'." After hearing this, all the ministers cast admiring glances at the young prince Liu Che. Before going down to the court, Emperor Jing looked around at the ministers and saw that Liu Rong's teacher Wei Qihou Dou Ying had not yet arrived, so he asked angrily, "Why is Wei Qihou not going to court again?" No one spoke. Emperor Jing asked loudly again: "Are you sick?" The ministers remained silent. Emperor Jing snorted, got up and left. Prime Minister Zhou Yafu came out, shaking his white beard, and said: "My lord, he is the teacher of Prince Liu Rong. The prince was deposed for no reason, and now he committed suicide. Does he still have the heart to come to court?" After hearing this, Emperor Jing glanced at Zhou Yafu, but did not speak. The servant announced: "The court is dispersed." The ministers whispered and walked out of the hall. "Since the crown prince was deposed, he hasn't come to court." "Yes, the crown prince was deposed for no reason, how could he figure it out?" In Emperor Jing's bedroom, Emperor Jing entertained Prime Minister Zhou Yafu, and beside him sat Prince Liu Che and Queen Wang. Emperor Jing thought to himself, you old ministers, don't think that I dare not touch you because of your high merit, I must show you something today. After Zhou Yafu was seated, he saw a large piece of uncut meat on the table, and there were no chopsticks on the table. Zhou Yafu looked up and saw that the emperor was only eating by himself. Although the prince did not move his chopsticks, his eyes were watching him.So he asked the attendant, "Why don't you put chopsticks?" Emperor Jing said in surprise on purpose: "Ah, I didn't prepare chopsticks for you. It's not intentional. Please don't worry about it." Queen Wang hurriedly told her attendants: "Hurry up and get the chopsticks!" Zhou Yafu stood up, thanked Emperor Jing politely, and strode away. Queen Wang asked: "Your Majesty, why is this?" Emperor Jing snorted and said, "How can you be the young lord's servant if you are so unhappy and disobedient?" Little Liu Che said: "But the father, the sons and ministers heard Confucius say: monarchs, ministers, fathers, sons..." "Father knows that a ruler should be like a ruler, and a minister should be like a minister. This is to spoil his prestige, and also to give a little warning to the offending ministers." Emperor Jing said again: "Does the emperor know what the warning is?" "Great achievements overwhelm the Lord." Emperor Jing looked at Liu Che in surprise, "Since you already know why, why do you still ask me?" Liu Che replied: "Because Confucius said: 'Government with virtue, such as Beichen, where the stars live.' Without the support of his ministers, can the king do it?" Emperor Jing looked happy: "My prince, you have grown up." Emperor Jing also said: "There is also Dou Ying. If he doesn't go to court again, I will punish him severely. These old ministers can ignore the overall situation because of their meritorious service. After a hundred years, how can Che'er subdue them?" Queen Wang said: "Then let Gao Sui persuade Dou Ying. As long as Dou Ying softens, Zhou Yafu will not be afraid." So the veteran Gao Sui went to see Dou Ying. Hearing what his wife said, Dou Ying asked to see Gao, and hurriedly lay down on the bed. After Gao Sui came in, he saw that although the old general was humming on the bed, he looked good, so he understood, so he said: "I heard that the general has not been in court for a long time?" "Exactly, because I don't feel well." "I think that the one who can make the general rich is the sage, and the one who can get close to the general is the empress dowager. Now that the general is a deposed prince, he claims that he is sick and cannot go to the court. Isn't this the fault of the emperor? If the sage blames it, then the general and his wife will be punished Exterminate. Forgive me for my blunt words, why don’t the general go to the court before the emperor’s decree is issued, maybe he can die like a rabbit.” Dou Ying listened, looked at his wife's teary eyes, and sighed: "Come on, come on, Liu Rong is dead, and it's useless to fight any more. For the sake of my wife and children, this old man has no choice but to compromise." Dou Ying finally surrendered. Zhou Yafu, who was dismissed from the position of prime minister, has been on hunger strike for the fifth day in prison. Because his son privately bought 500 Shangfang armored shields to be used as his father's burial vessel, the defendant plotted to rebel and was sent to prison.Emperor Jing ordered Tingwei to interrogate him. Zhou Yafu understood that the emperor's purpose was to subdue him, so he was determined to resist with death. At this time, Zhou Yafu was skinny and dying.Lying on the cold straw mat, Zhou Yafu recalled his mighty life... During the time of Emperor Wen, the Huns invaded and was appointed a general. How smug I was at that time. How proud it is to be promoted to lieutenant and to go to Beijing to appoint General Cheqi. When the Wu-Chu Seven Kingdoms Rebellion was quelled, as a Taiwei, I led a large army to the expedition and made great contributions to the suppression of the rebellion. When Emperor Jing made him prime minister, he was at the height of his power... well!Unexpectedly, the incident of abolishing the crown prince was suspected by the emperor... I never thought that my son would be falsely accused of plotting rebellion by buying funeral objects for me... Alas, the tide is gone!Thinking of this, Zhou Yafu was so sad that he vomited a pool of blood... Sima Tan and Sima Qian went to visit their old friend Zhou Yafu in prison. Sima Tan said: "Old Prime Minister, you have to take care!" Zhou Yafu said angrily: "Prince Liu Rong was not at fault, but he was deposed; Liang Xiaowang wanted to succeed, but Yuan An objected and was killed by them. Is there any justice in this world?" Sima Tan sighed: "I can't tell you about the affairs of the court. The old prime minister still wants to open up." Zhou Yafu also sighed: "Alas, the youngest son was established as the master. The emperor is afraid of our great achievements, so he wants to get rid of me. Alas, the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden..." Zhou Yafu said again: "Tai Shi Gong, the emperor is too authoritarian, and I can only die unjustly. I only hope that your history writing will be more fair." Sima Tan nodded and said: "Don't worry, the old prime minister, to safeguard the truth of history, this is the morality of our historians, and the merits and demerits of the monarch and his ministers cannot be tampered with at will." "That's right, your son Sima Qian is very talented, I often recommend him in front of the emperor." "Yes, it is your recommendation that he can listen in on the court." Sima Qian said respectfully: "Prime Minister, rest assured, those who write history will respect history." "Okay; like a father, like a son. The history of Han depends on you." Zhou Yafu couldn't speak anymore, he felt dizzy and closed his eyes, Sima Tan and his son put down the food they had brought, and walked out gently. Zhou Yafu died, and he didn't understand the reason why the emperor abolished the prince until his death. It was actually a woman's conspiracy. In 141 B.C. (the third year of Emperor Jing's reign), after the death of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, on a sunny day, the Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City was solemnly decorated, and hundreds of civil and military officials lined up inside and outside the hall, where the new emperor's enthronement ceremony will be held. When the auspicious day arrived, the music of the son of heaven was played, and with a shout of "the emperor ascended the throne", the new emperor ascended the throne. Sixteen-year-old Liu Che, wearing the emperor's dragon robe and the emperor's crown, stepped on the red carpet and climbed the nine steps of Danchi.Walking to the dragon chair and taking a seat, His Highness burst out: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!!" The young emperor, with a pair of dragon eyes gleaming, glanced at His Highness, and made a majestic voice: "Pingshen." Since then, China has given birth to an emperor with great talents and general plans, who led China to prosperity, expanded China's territory unprecedentedly, and unified the multi-ethnic groups unprecedentedly.This year is the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, 140 BC. In Changle Palace, in the bedroom of Empress Dowager Dou, the youngest son Liang Xiaowang said to his mother with a depressed face: "Mother, the child is finished, and there is no chance to be emperor again." Empress Dowager Dou slammed the case and scolded: "Humph, it really made Wang Meiren and her son succeed, let's wait and see." A gleam of hope flashed in Liang Xiaowang's eyes: "What's the mother's plan?" "I forgive him for not staying for a long time. Anyway, I have to listen to everything. You go back to the fief first, and I have my own way." "Yes, mother." After Liang Xiaowang returned to the fief, he broke the emperor's dream and was extremely desperate. Every day, he only rode and hunted with a group of literati such as Mei Cheng and Sima Xiangru. Empress Dowager Dou was very sad about the death of her son, and she became even more resentful towards Liu Che's mother and son. She controlled the power of the government and prevented the young emperor from displaying his ambitions.
