Han emperor system

Chapter 151 The money-greedy mother and son

However, this is the old lady Wuyang Jun who specially arranged it like this, because she was born in a poor family, and she was used to these smells since she was a child, so she couldn't smell these smells, and couldn't eat or sleep well, so Someone specially made these in her yard.

However, she herself never does any manual work. Farming, raising chickens, ducks, and pigs are all done by her servants, and she just wants to live in such an atmosphere and smell this kind of smell every day. The smell is reassuring.

"See His Royal Highness."

Liu Bian used to think that these things were a bit new, but now he felt a little disgusted, but he still frowned and entered the small courtyard, and immediately there were seven or eight girls and servants kneeling respectfully on the ground to greet him.

"Hehe, come on, obediently, please come in quickly."

And the old lady Wuyang Jun in the room had already laughed, and her voice was peeling like dry wood, and at this moment the maids raised the curtain and let Liu Bian walk in.

"Grandma, I just came back from Runan yesterday. I heard that you were sick some time ago. Are you okay now?"

After Liu Bian entered, he immediately saw the old lady sitting on the high couch. She was about sixty years old, with a dark and thin face and gray hair, but she felt nauseous in all her clothes.

Mr. Wuyang was dressed very brightly, with bright red and green robes on his body, a big red flower on his head, and some bright pearl hairpins, and a few glittering golden chains hanging around his neck. Jade pendants of various colors made her look like a coquettish old fairy.

Liu Bian stepped forward to salute, but lowered his head. He really didn't want to see Lord Wuyang. He was obviously a nouveau riche, and he wore all the precious things on his body to show his nobility.

"Hehe, Bian'er is now the crown prince, and her demeanor is really different. The old lady's illness has been cured, but Bian'er, you went so far this time, and you still led troops to fight, which really worried the old lady. In the future, Bian'er Son, don’t do such dangerous things anymore, you’re still the crown prince anyway, and when your father dies, you will belong to the emperor, and the rest of the affairs will be left to those court ministers.”

Lord Wuyang spoke carelessly, but such rebellious words came naturally in her mouth. After hearing this, Liu Bian immediately interrupted her: "Father is in the prime of life, and Bian never dares to expect to be an emperor. If this is the case, grandma should say less in the future. Alright, so as not to bring trouble to the He family. However, with the support of the queen mother in the palace, and the support of two uncles and grandmothers outside, as long as you work hard, the emperor will naturally see it, and you will have the opportunity to take charge of it in the future. of the world."

"Okay, okay, as long as you are clear about it, isn't grandma worried that you don't understand? Besides, grandma is just talking behind closed doors. The people in this room are all confidants, so don't worry about spreading out."

"Grandma, Bian heard some rumors outside that the general's uncle is quite conceited. Although there are many talents to vote for, he doesn't listen to other people's opinions. Of course, these are just rumors outside, but I think since there are people like this Biography, does that at least mean that Uncle is indeed somewhat conceited, which might be detrimental to our future affairs?" Liu Bian hoped in a disguised form to persuade General He Jin through Wuyang Jun's mouth and let him listen more to his subordinates Opinions, so as not to die in the hands of ten constant servants like in history.

"His Royal Highness is right. Now that the eldest brother is in a high position, he really doesn't listen to our opinions. This is not a rumor, but a fact."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the room, and then a tall, thin middle-aged man walked in. Although his appearance was similar to General He Jin's, his figure was completely different.

"See His Royal Highness."

This person is the Chariot General He Miao, who is also the younger brother of Empress He. There are four brothers and sisters.And He Miao was the one who led the army to put down the Yellow Turban Rebels in Nanyang a few years ago, and was promoted to the position of General Chaqi by General He Jin looking for an opportunity.

It's just that, although He Miao was promoted by his elder brother, he and his elder brother are not completely of the same mind, but have inherited the characteristics of their mother Wuyang Lord's greed for money. He will always say good things for you in front of the general or Queen He.

"It turns out that the second uncle is here."

He Miao greeted Prince Liu Bian, and Liu Bian of course also stood up to return the salute. In any case, at least He Miao is also his uncle, and now he is mainly in command of the Second Battalion of the Yulin Army Southern Army, and he also controls the military power in his hands, so Liu Bian is right. He was still very polite.

"I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince led the imperial army to conquer Runan and won a big victory. I am really happy to congratulate you. I heard His Highness's remarks outside the door just now, and they are indeed very reasonable. Brother, this person is a little different now than before. , especially with a stronger desire for power. Now some court ministers around him are instigating him to kill the ten permanent servants. How can the chief officials who manage many palace maids and eunuchs in the palace be without them? Besides, after the empress entered the palace, thanks to the help of Guo Sheng and others, she was able to enjoy the current wealth and become the lord of the forbidden palace. Eldest brother, his position as a great general also depends on Mr. Guo and the others’ good words from the saints, and now he wants to listen to other people’s instigation and do such a rebellious thing, it’s very inappropriate.”

Liu Bian didn't know much about the fortune-telling history of Empress He and the brothers and sisters of the He family before. He only knew that her two brothers prospered one after another after Empress He was favored. The credit of some people.

So, other thoughts began to turn in his heart, so it seems that the ten permanent servants are not monolithic, and what they want is wealth and glory. As long as they can give them this, some of them can also Solicited and bought over.

Of course, after listening to the words of General He Miao, Liu Bian also understood that He Miao and Lord Wuyang might have accepted bribes from the ten servants at this time, so he began to speak for them, and he couldn't help feeling a little disgusted in his heart.

"The scourge of eunuchs has a long history. If you want to eliminate its disadvantages, you can't do it overnight. The general's idea may be a bit extreme, but you can't allow the ten permanent servants to continue to disrupt the government like this. You should give them appropriate warnings. Let them do whatever they want. After all, among them, there are only a very small number of people who are kind to us, and most of them are against the king and support the Prince's Association with Dong's line."
