Chapter 17 1. Fighting for the Prince

Yang Zhen collapsed, and Fan Feng could finally sleep soundly.He thought that none of the orthodox scholar-bureaucrats would dare to challenge him one-on-one again. And someone like Chen Zhong, although he has the name of a Confucian scholar, is not in the same trench as them.This kind of ideal but spineless thing will be recruited by them sooner or later, and they won't be able to escape.Therefore, there is no need to worry about what little tricks he is doing behind his back. But Fan Feng woke up and had to continue working.In the deep palace, there are always endless meals and endless class struggles.Next, he had to get rid of someone for Empress Yan, otherwise disaster would be left and everyone would have a hard time in the future.

It was only a ten-year-old child who posed a threat to them.Although he is young, his power is infinite. His name is Liu Bao, and he was Prince Liu Hu at that time. Speaking of which, Liu Bao is a pitiful child. At the beginning, when his mother Li Shi just gave birth to him, she was followed by Queen Yan.Empress Yan has no children. She does not have the mind of Empress Ma, nor the scheming of Empress Dou.Therefore, in order to fear that the Li family who gave birth to a precious son would rob her of her job in the future, without further ado, he sent someone to bring a glass of poisonous wine over to kill her.

Years passed in a flash, she was hopeful at first, then disappointed, and finally turned into despair. To her desperation, horrific times finally proved her infertile.What is even more desperate is that Liu Bao is growing up year by year.If one day the small tree grows into a big tree, it will be difficult to uproot it. So she thinks that Liu Bao must be abolished before he becomes an adult. Queen Dou also killed people in order to keep her job.The problem is, she took over the magpie's nest and snatched other people's children to raise, so she still has some affection.However, Empress Yan didn't even have the mood to support her, which shows how inadequate this woman's head is.

Empress Yan gave up custody of Liu Bao, and the task of raising the prince for the past ten years fell to Liu Bao's nanny.Nanny, nanny, if you have milk, you are a mother. After a long time, you will become your own mother. Liu Hu's attitude towards his nanny is an example. In this case, the trouble will be big. Empress Yan called Fan Feng and his errands to discuss strategies.After discussing and discussing, they all agreed that the most dangerous person now is not Liu Bao, but his nanny. Bad kids are taught by adults, as long as you kill the nanny and keep Liu Bao who is not familiar with the world, it shouldn't be a problem.

After they finished talking, they divided up the work. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Liu Bao's wet nurse threw herself into the trap and ran into the knife.As it happened, Liu Bao was frightened and disturbed, so he went to live with his father Liu Hu's nurse, Wang Sheng.Liu Bao's wet nurse knew what Wang Sheng was, and it was absolutely not safe to stay with this old woman. So, just to be on the safe side, she gave Wang Sheng an opinion, saying that your old man lives in a new house, and the prince should not live in it for a long time. If you live for a long time, you will violate the land ban. Why don't you go back first.

In a sense, Liu Hu's wet nurse is Liu Bao's half-grandmother.Liu Bao's wet nurse is half a mother.The half-mother and the half-grandmother robbed the crown prince, theoretically speaking, it was just a game. Ever since, Wang Sheng, together with Fan Feng and a group of people, went to Liu Hu to file a complaint. It doesn't matter what the specific complaint is.The important thing is that Liu Bao's nanny and a long-term keeper of Liu's food were pulled out and chopped up together. After the chopping was finished, Fan Feng was in charge of observing Liu Bao to see if the prince had any mood changes.

Without observation, Fan Feng discovered that Liu Bao was indignant at the nanny's death, a bit like a gentleman's vengeance is not too late for ten years.Suddenly, an ominous thought came to his mind - the prince has grown up. Fan Feng hurriedly went to report the situation to Queen Yan, and Queen Yan was shocked when she heard it. It seems that paper can't contain fire, if Liu Bao is not abolished, he will feel like there is a knife hanging over his head when he sleeps, how can he live a peaceful life these days. Thirty-six strategies, abolishing is the best policy, so I did it.

However, in order to abolish Liu Bao, Liu Hu, the father, must nod.But how to get Liu Hu to agree to this matter is really a bit unclear. For outsiders, whoever you Fan Feng likes to mess with, anyway, it's not cutting your own flesh.But Liu Bao is Liu Hu's biological son after all, and he is a piece of meat in his heart. Therefore, it is necessary to study and study carefully and come up with a good plan.As for what good plan to come up with, that's not up to Empress Yan.She doesn't have that head, so leave it to Fan Feng. Fan Feng immediately went back to look for Liu Hu's wet nurse, Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng watched Liu Hu grow up, and the nurse was more or less aware of the child's tendons.She also knows what children like to listen to, eat, and play with.What's more, Liu Hu's wet nurse has contributed to the reason why Liu Hu has survived all kinds of difficulties in these years. From this, it can be deduced that this wet nurse who is used to watching harem battles is not Miejue Shitai, but she must have the peerless martial arts of Miejue Shitai. There is no more suitable person to deal with Liu Hu than her. Remember Liu Hu's father, Liu Qing, how he was deposed when he was also the prince.The opponent Queen Dou appointed him to say that he was sick in the head and was a neuropathy.Liu Da actually complied, and then issued an edict, publicly saying that the crown prince Liu Qing was mentally ill and incapable of governing, so he was abolished and replaced by Liu Zhao.

With this classic case, it is easy for Ms. Wang Sheng to use it as a learning material.She went to Liu Hu and often said bad things about the prince. No one knows what she said, but we can guess. I guess it should be like this: Fan Feng conveyed the meaning of Queen Yan to Wang Sheng, saying that he wanted to abolish the prince.Wang Sheng also found out that the prince Liu Bao didn't match his half-grandmother with his half-mother, and it would be a burden to keep him. From this, Wang Sheng whispered in Liu Hu's ear, meaning that I am old enough to raise my father, and my father is still kind to me.Now that he has kindly accepted the prince, the prince doesn't even turn to her, only to the dead wet nurse.You said, this is not irritating, and if I am so irritating, can I still live?

In this way, after Wang Sheng fanned the flames, Liu Hu lost his temper.He clamored to abolish the prince, show him some color. Liu Hu didn't enjoy shouting. After the continuous advocacy of the nursing gang and a bunch of errands around him, he really wanted to take action.However, in order to abolish Liu Bao, a procedure had to be followed, that is, a meeting was held to discuss it, and the ministers of the Han Dynasty approved it. Let's hold the meeting, Fan Feng has no objection, Queen Yan has no objection, and his relative Geng Bao has no objection. They agreed that Liu Bao's abolition was a certainty.The reason is very simple. After Yang Zhen died, there was no successor, and no high-ranking officials came out to call for injustice and make trouble. Everything was very peaceful.Therefore, in their view, as long as it was approved by the emperor, the officials of the Han Dynasty who used it for decoration would also nod their approval. Will things really work out? Yes, absolutely.No one, including Liu Hu, believed that the resolution would fail. However, when the actual meeting took place, they were all dumbfounded. On the day of the meeting, many senior officials came, and the meeting was presided over by General Geng Bao. In other words, after Yang Zhen's death, it was his relative Geng Bao who benefited the most.Life is alive, it is better to come quickly than to come by coincidence.Liu Hu's mother died early, and she has been taken care of by her aunt Geng Ji, and the two have a very good relationship.As Geng Ji's elder brother, Geng Bao, as the uncle of the country, had a good time, because he participated in the impeachment of Yang Zhen, and Liu Hu appointed him as a general. Today, this Geng's opening speech was very strong, and he mentioned the nurse's conspiracy to seize the prince as soon as he opened his mouth, saying that Liu Bao could not get rid of his involvement in this matter.In order to punish this kid, his crown prince position should be abolished, and his memory should be longer. As soon as Geng Bao finished speaking, a person immediately stood up and shouted: "Just talk nonsense, if you want to abolish the crown prince, you can't pass my test first." All the people in the hall were shocked by the sound, Geng Bao looked up, it was incredible.The one who stood up and yelled against was Taifu Yuanli.Immediately afterwards, a few more people stood up and voted against it. These people were Tai Chang Huan Yan and Ting Wei Zhang Hao. Obviously, judging by their posture, they came prepared. Geng Bao guessed right, they all came prepared.Among these people, the most well-prepared ones are the first to count their origins.What is the origin of this name? Speaking of which, his background is really not small. Origin, the word Bozhen, mother is a princess, the daughter of Ming Emperor Liu Zhuang.The ancestor was even more powerful. It was his great-grandfather who opened up Longxi for Liu Xiu and wiped out Kaihuo.Because of a prominent family background, he was awarded the title when he was young. It can be said that he has worked hard all his life. He was born with it. Do you think he is awesome? We know Lai She's character, if you give him a sword, he will dare to kill.When he was negotiating with Kai Xiao on behalf of Liu Xiu, he was so angry that he drew his sword on the spot and wanted to cut him down.Later, Kaixiao saw that he was Liu Xiu's cousin, and if Liu Xiu killed him, he would take revenge even more crazily, so he had to endure the humiliation and let him go. Unexpectedly, many years later, Lai She's excellent genes were passed on to his great-grandson, Lai Li.Geng Bao thought that after Yang Zhen's death, no one would dare to come out and challenge them one-on-one. This idea was completely wrong. In fact, Yuan Shi has always wanted to fight them well, and now the opportunity has finally come. Among Queen Yan's accomplices, the person with the most hated background is probably this Geng Bao in front of him. He once told Pingqiang hero Yu Xu that Geng Bao, as the uncle of the country, enjoyed too much glory, but he didn't show compassion for the country's loyalty and mingled with a group of harem eunuchs to frame Yang Zhen.Just wait and see, this kind of person must die badly. Today, even if Geng Bao couldn't die, at least he couldn't make him look down.So, after Yuan Shi finished yelling, he then yelled: "The prince is only ten years old, how does he know what kind of conspiracy the wet nurse is up to? Isn't it ridiculous for you, Geng Bao, to blame the prince for this matter?" It's like a choir, with such a shout of origin, Taichang Huanyan, Tingwei Zhang Hao and others responded: Yes, it's too ridiculous. The origin went on to say: "Even if the crown prince Liu Bao knows about this, but he is under fifteen years old, he is a minor, and he should not be responsible for his mistakes." The smart ones have heard that Liu Hu is Liu Bao's legal guardian, and Liu Bao is not qualified to bear the mistakes, so who will bear the responsibility?It must be the father. Damn, after a half-day meeting, she was turned on her own head. Liu Hu was a little dizzy. The meeting was boring and ended anticlimactically.After the meeting, Liu Hu resorted to the last old trick: You give your opinion, and I will do my own thing. In the end, he announced that although there were many objections from everyone, I still said that-the crown prince must be removed. Sure enough, shortly after the meeting ended, rumors spread from the palace that the Crown Prince Liu Bao had been abolished and renamed King Jiyin, and that he had moved out of the Crown Prince's uterus and moved to the west bell tower of Deyang Hall. Why can't I see the future of the Han Dynasty? It turns out that the world is dark. The source is angry. The current contest is not just about your father and son. Since you asked us for a meeting and didn't take us seriously, do you think we are really just a display, just to be played casually? There must be a fight, in the name of justice.I want to tell you the emperor Liu Hu in practice, scholars can be killed but not humiliated, face and dignity must be determined. Matters involving the dignity of scholar-bureaucrats are of course not a matter of origin.The power of unity is strong, and soon, Yuanli united a large group of people, including Guang Luxun, Zong Zheng, Taizhong Doctor and other high-ranking officials, totaling more than ten people. Then, Yuanli led them to the gate of the palace in a mighty way, shouting in unison: The wet nurse committed a crime, the prince is young and ignorant, he should not sit together, and asked the emperor to restore Liu Bao's status as prince. Play big. This was the first time since Liu Xiu founded the country, and it was also the once in a thousand years that a collective choked on the emperor forcefully.For many years, the emperor has regarded them as scapegoats, and they have had enough. Du Lala said that promotion is based on taking the initiative to win, and they are the same. Power must be won by taking the initiative to fight. If you stay silent forever, you can only be a silent lamb forever. Outside the palace, the scholar-bureaucrats came aggressively, which really shocked Liu Hu and others.Meeting, meeting, trouble-making meeting, how will it end now? Geng Bao, Fan Feng, and Yan's family surrounded Liu Hu, each of them looked like ants on a hot pot, their heads were getting bigger, but they still couldn't think of a way out. Liu Hu looked at everyone, and everyone looked at Liu Hu. Suddenly, Liu Hu understood that Yang Zhen died in March, and now it is September, which is about half a year, and they have made such a big deal. On the surface, they all came here to fight for power for the prince, but in fact they came here to fight for power for themselves, and by the way, they avenged Yang Zhen's great revenge. The so-called know yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles, as long as you know the inside information of the enemy, the problem will be easy to solve.To take revenge depends on whether you have the strength. Thinking of this, Liu Hu smiled sinisterly. He pretended to be his grandson for fifteen years in front of the Empress Dowager Deng, and finally waited until the Great Liberation of the century before his waist hardened, and he was going to be threatened and held hostage by your gang of civil servants?Life is short, and the past is full of hardships. How can I have time to pretend to be a grandson with you? Liu Hu has a solution. Liu Hu called Zhongchang Attendant Fan Feng to him, and said confidently: "Please come, go to the gate of the palace, and pass a message to them for me." Liu Hu said what he wanted to say, and Fan Feng turned around and went out after listening.When he came to the gate of the palace, he saw Yuanli and a group of people still yelling there. When the two factions meet, they are extremely jealous. Fan Feng glanced at them contemptuously, cleared his throat, and said: "Listen up, the emperor wants me to tell you that the matter between him and the crown prince is the matter of their father and son. The child is a piece of flesh of the father, and The father abolished the crown prince justly for the sake of the country. And you, who don’t know the general background, gathered a group of you to make trouble, and you know what it is for.” Like a memorization of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Fan Feng lightly pushes it, and many masters around him turn pale. Then, Fan Feng said with a murderous look on his face: "But the emperor said again that he respects freedom of speech and is not going to hold you accountable. But if you continue to make trouble for no reason, then you will be welcome, and you will be punished!" Fan Feng is right, they want to make trouble, they just want to fight for some power for themselves.But the emperor's words were all spoken, and if he wanted power, he would keep his life, and if he wanted officials, he would go home and sleep. Thinking of this, all the senior officials of the Han Dynasty couldn't help retreating. At this time, Xue Hao, the master craftsman, stood up and said, "We understand what the emperor means. Please go back and tell him, we will just follow orders." As soon as the words fell, Yuanli jumped up, pointed at Xue Hao and cursed: "You spineless thing, you become like this when people scare you. We all came together, we are not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Xue Hao was scolded by the source, and after a while, he still withdrew from the demonstration team.Then, people left one after another, and finally, in front of the empty palace gate, there was only one person left. The source seems to want to understand one thing, in the field of power, no enemy is terrible, what is terrible is that I have no courage and no backbone. Yuan An many years ago and Yang Zhen who died just now, why did they die so tragically?That's because they are too lonely, and they don't have a fan group that really unites with them and works hard to the end. They were like this in the past, and he is like this today. Is this the fate of the Eastern Han Dynasty?If it is fate, I will admit it.I want to tell this dynasty with my figure that the world is very dark, but I am that fearless firefly, and even death will light up the light of this world. Yuanli still sticks to the gate of Hongdu, the palace, and there have been continuous demonstrations for several days. Liu Hu became angry. Give you face, if you don't want it, then drive him out to see if he still has face.Somebody, take him down. When Liu Hu called for someone, Shang Shu ordered Chen Zhong to come.The emperor didn't need to order, he knew what to do.Then, he also pulled his colleagues from the Secretary's Office to discuss the origin of the impeachment. As soon as he sang here, Liu Hu responded immediately, and issued an imperial edict to dismiss Yuan Li from his official position, deprive him of his marquis, and also take all Yuan Li's brothers who were officials together. Liu Hu felt that it wasn't cruel enough, so he issued another edict—from then on, Yuan Li was not allowed to meet the princess's mother. Liu Hu just wants to tell the source: If you want to be a unparalleled lonely person in the world, I will fulfill you.Those who want to show off will have to pay the price.No official, no title, no one to rely on, and your family relationship will be broken, so just treat yourself as a lonely person forever.
