Zhou Jia could still imagine how furious Liu Che would be when he heard this, but she did not pause and continued:
"Liu Che did not have a son for more than ten years after he ascended the throne. It was not until 128 BC that his wife Wei Zifu, who had given birth to three daughters, gave birth to his first son, who was already 29 years old. Liu Che was very happy and named the child Liu Ju in February.
Because of this prince, Wei Zifu became the empress of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Ju's status was changed from a concubine's eldest son to a legitimate eldest son. So Liu Che, who ascended the throne, didn't have to worry, because your son will be here when you are 29.
When Liu Ju was seven years old, Emperor Liu Che immediately made him the crown prince and issued a general amnesty.
After all, he was Emperor Wu's crown prince, so Emperor Wu naturally had high hopes for Liu Ju and began to seriously select a teacher for Liu Ju. He originally wanted his teacher Shi Fen to teach Liu Ju, but this man had passed away two years when Liu Ju became the crown prince, so he chose his youngest son Shi Qing as Liu Ju's teacher.
Liu Che was a person who respected Gongyang School, and he sent literary scholars to tutor Liu Ju in studying Gongyang Spring and Autumn Annals. After Liu Ju learned it, he liked Guliang School and wanted to learn it. He also privately studied Guliang School from Xia Qiu Jiang Gong.
From this we can see that although Liu Ju is young, he is a very independent child and he loves to learn. He wanted to learn so he went to learn from a master. He is a very capable child. "
She couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Liu Che, who had just ascended the throne and had not yet given birth to Crown Prince Liu Ju, immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he learned the specific year of Liu Ju's birth. It's good to have a son, it's good to have a son, even if he comes a little later.
Although Empress Dowager Dou was still blind, she could still see Zhou Jia's screen clearly, and Liu Che was watching the screen with him.
Liu Che looked at Empress Dowager Dou and said, "Grandma, since we already know the child's biological mother, why don't we let her enter the palace as soon as possible?"
In fact, when Liu Che first learned about Wei Zifu's identity, he wanted to send someone to his sister's house to bring her over, but was stopped by Empress Dowager Dou.
Empress Dowager Dou also wanted to bring the person over, so she reached out to hold Liu Che's hand, and Liu Che quickly grabbed it.
"Emperor, don't forget what you just saw. Although grandma really wants to see her great-grandson as soon as possible, your safety is equally important. Moreover, judging from Miss Zhou Jia's tone, the subsequent outcome may be..."
She paused and continued:
"An Xin, since they are your sister's people, she must have already controlled them. Whether it is Wei Zifu or her brother or nephew, they are there and can't run away. Let's find out the cause and effect and then think about it carefully."
She sighed and held Liu Ju's hand more tightly.
Liu Che felt that what she said made sense, so he did not refuse and nodded, "I will listen to you, grandma, in everything."
"It's just that Gillian's child..."
Empress Dowager Dou sighed.
Children are debts.
"Emperor, grandma has only one wish. You can abolish Ah Jiao's position as queen, but please spare her life. Just consider it as grandma begging you."
After hearing so much, Liu Che also knew the final outcome of himself and Chen Ajiao. As long as she didn't make a big mistake, he would naturally not take her life, not to mention that Empress Dowager Dou personally pleaded for her.
"Grandma, as long as she doesn't make a big mistake, I won't do anything to her."
While the grandfather and grandson were talking, there were two people sitting in front of Princess Pingyang, the brother and sister Wei Zifu and Wei Qing. They were originally kneeling, but knowing their future identities, it would be inappropriate to let them kneel.
"Since you two siblings have such abilities, let's listen to Miss Zhou Jia's story together."
Princess Pingyang smiled.
"promise."
Unlike them, Empress Dou Liu Piao and her daughter Chen Ajiao were unwilling to accept this. They were so proud, how could they allow a singing girl and a horse slave to be on the same level as them?
However, they are not stupid people. They know that they should still be happy to know the identities of the future crown prince and queen, and should not act rashly.
When Empress Dowager Dou died, Chen Ajiao was deposed, and Wei Zifu entered the palace, Liu Che was overjoyed. He immediately called Wei Zifu and Wei Qing, and even traced the identity of Huo Qubing. He inhumanely brought all the people from the Wei and Huo families into the palace.
Liu Che was even more delighted in the dimension where Liu Ju had already been born. He immediately gave various rewards to Wei Zifu and Liu Ju, which naturally made many people jealous.
The Han Dynasty was turbulent, but it had nothing to do with Zhou Jia. She continued to narrate:
"Liu Ju had many famous teachers teaching him, and he also studied very hard. After he came of age, according to etiquette, he had to go to the prince's palace. As his coming-of-age ceremony, Liu Ju built a garden for him in the south of Chang'an, called Bowang Garden.
Why? Because Liu Ju was a person who liked to make friends and entertain guests, and this thing could be used as a place to socialize with guests. Therefore, at that time, many "outliers" with different political views from the mainstream came to join Liu Ju.
Moreover, Liu Ju did not care about the background of his friends. There were common people and many knights. It sounded very free. Liu Che really doted on Liu Ju, didn't he? "
Zhou Jia asked with a smile.
Many people below nodded.
Yes, yes, isn’t this pampering?
Only some of the emperors sneered.
Chinese
The Liu family emperor’s first reaction was surveillance.
The young Liu Ju did not understand what Zhou Jia said, but the older Liu Ju clenched his fists.
The moment he received the gift, his first reaction was that it was surveillance from his father.
He knew that his father didn't like him making many friends, and he also knew that his father felt... that he was not like himself.
秦
Liu Ji sat on the floor of the Xianyang Palace in a casual manner. "Is my grandson, who is several generations old, also using this to monitor his own son?"
The prince made many friends.
These few words say a lot.
Liu Ji turned his head and looked at Ying Zheng, and asked with a burning gaze: "Your Majesty, have you ever monitored Prince Fusu?"
Upon hearing this, Fusu looked up at Liu Ji, without much emotion, and continued to deal with the bamboo slips in front of him.
After this period of blows, his psychological endurance has become much stronger.
Although the paper has begun to be produced, there are problems such as serious ink leakage, so it still needs to be optimized. Moreover, promotion also takes time, so bamboo slips will be used for the time being. According to their progress, in three days they can gradually use the paper they make themselves to replace the bamboo slips.
Before Ying Zheng could say anything, the ministers below looked at Liu Ji as if he were a fool.
Does His Majesty need it?
Ying Zheng naturally would not answer Liu Ji's boring question. Liu Ji was not discouraged when he didn't get an answer. He just sighed silently, "Sure enough, people are very different."
"If he is a low-ranking official who only socializes with guests, people will say he is scheming and wants to take this opportunity to get to know the rich and powerful. If he is in a high position, he will be even more in the emperor's eyes, and he will worry that you court officials will unite to cause trouble. What's more, he is the crown prince of a country. If the crown prince has close contact with court officials, the biggest possibility is that he is plotting a rebellion.
Therefore, it is not good for the crown princes of all dynasties to be close to the ministers, and it is even worse if they are too close to the ministers.
Moreover, Liu Che was a very suspicious emperor. I really don't believe that he did this to Liu Ju just because he loved his son and didn't intend to monitor him. Of course, this is just my own conspiracy theory. Whether it is true or not is not something I can know. "
Liu Ju immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Father, I am wise. I like to make friends, but I have no intention of rebelling."
Liu Che felt embarrassed by what Zhou Jia said, and raised his hand, "Get up, I know your temper, don't worry."
When Liu Ju heard the words "I know your temper", his eyes darkened.
"Thank you, Father."
He stood aside silently, looking depressed.
My father still feels like he is not like him.
"Liu Ju, Fusu, and Zhu Biao are actually somewhat similar. Their fathers are all tiger-like kings with particularly domineering temperaments and the kind of domineering aura, but their sons are all kind-hearted. The difference is that Liu Ju and Fusu's paths are a bit tortuous, but Zhu Biao is Zhu Yuanzhang's blatant favorite.
Fusu made the emperor mad because of his kindness, and Liu Ju made Liu Che dislike him because he was too lenient, unlike Liu Che. Later, as Liu Che had more and more sons, Wei Zifu grew older and her favor for him declined somewhat, and both mother and son felt uneasy for a long time.
One day, Liu Che called Wei Qing over and tactfully told him that he had no major objection to the benevolence of Crown Prince Liu Ju. After all, the Han Dynasty did need a benevolent monarch to recuperate. Wei Qing then personally conveyed his words to Wei Zifu and the crown prince.
Here, Wei Qing basically acts as a messenger and reassurance agent.
Moreover, Liu Che was a strict lawmaker, while Liu Ju was magnanimous but stubborn on some issues. He would vindicate some things that he thought were harsh. Wei Zifu would be worried because her son and husband had conflicting political views. She was afraid that Liu Ju would anger Liu Che. At this time, Liu Che did not care much about these things and thought that Wei Zifu was overthinking.
But did Wei Zifu really overthink it? It is said that the former dynasty and the harem are closely related. Wei Zifu's favor made Wei Qing and Huo Qubing enter the eyes of Liu Che, and their subsequent achievements invisibly made Wei Zifu's position as empress and Liu Ju's position as crown prince more stable.
No matter how outrageous Liu Che was, he couldn't just dismiss Wei Zifu like he dismissed Chen Ajiao. This was based on the premise that Wei Zifu was still favored and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing had made contributions in the previous dynasty. But, what if this balance was broken?"
What Zhou Jia said was extremely terrifying. The balance was broken, which meant that either Wei Zifu would completely lose favor, or Wei Qing and Huo Qubing's military achievements would no longer protect Wei Zifu. The possible reasons for this phenomenon were either that she had committed treason, or that Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were no longer around and the emperor began to settle accounts.
No matter which result it is, it is not something they can bear easily.
There was deathly silence in the Weiyang Palace.
Since Liu Ju’s words came first in the video, Liu Che’s first reaction was rebellion, but...Wei Qing and Huo Qubing rebelled?
It sounds too unbelievable.
"Your Majesty, I am loyal to the Han Dynasty and Your Majesty, and I have no second thoughts!"
Wei Qing and Huo Qubing quickly expressed their loyalty.
Logically speaking, someone should come to add insult to injury at this time, but all the court officials knew how much Liu Che treasured these two people. If it was true, it would be fine, but if it was false, the emperor would definitely remember them. It would be better to wait until Zhou Jia had finished speaking and confirmed it before doing anything else.
It's always right to keep yourself safe.
Liu Che smiled and helped the two of them up. "Okay, I know your loyalty very well. Let's continue watching."
"promise."
Wei Qing and Huo Qubing looked at each other and said nothing more.
They were sure that they could not possibly rebel, and they would not ignore it if the prince had rebelled. But it still happened, and the biggest possibility... was that both of them were gone.
"It has been said that Liu Che was harsh in his use of the law, while Liu Ju was lenient, so those people in the court who were harsh in their use of the law banded together to slander the crown prince. On the one hand, the crown prince's behavior was too different from theirs, and if Liu Ju ascended the throne, he would definitely take action against them. On the other hand, Liu Che showed too much favor to Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and there were already many people in the court who were jealous of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, so their dissatisfaction naturally also implicated Liu Ju, who had the blood of the Wei family.
To make matters worse, in 106 BC, Wei Qing, who had spent his entire life in military service, died of illness. With the fall of Wei Qing, Wei Zifu's biggest backer, the flatterer lost his opponent and naturally became more arrogant. They thought that since Wei Qing was dead, wouldn't a benevolent prince be difficult to deal with?
As a result, these treacherous officials and those who had grievances with the Wei and Huo families all started to attack Liu Ju and began to frame him to lower his reputation. "
Wei Qing was shocked when he heard this.
He is gone now?
Huo Qubing raised his eyes, slightly frightened, and said, "Uncle!"
Liu Che no longer had the heart to think about anything else. His mind was filled with the thought of Wei Qing's death. He staggered to his feet and grabbed Wei Qing's hand, "Zhong Qing, I won't let you die!"
Wei Qing cannot die.
How could Wei Qing die?
Wei Qing supported Liu Che, who was sitting on the ground in a rude manner, holding Wei Qing tightly. Wei Qing squatted on the ground and let Liu Che hold him, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
Yes.
He is gone.
How could my sister have an easy life in the harem?
How can my nephew have an easy life?
Huo Qubing looked at Wei Qing with red eyes and choked up, "Uncle!"
Wei Qing came back to his senses, his eyes firm, "Your Majesty, rest assured. As long as Wei Qing lives, I will go through fire and water for Your Majesty!"
Liu Che was speechless, and immediately went to pull Huo Qubing, "You two, nothing can happen to you. If something happens to you, what will I do?"
The king and his two ministers were all sad, but the ministers below showed joy in their eyes when they heard the news of Wei Qing's death.
Harem.
Wei Zifu's body softened and tears welled up in her eyes.
How could she accept the fact that her son's fate had not yet been clarified when she heard the bad news about his brother?
"Emperor Wu of Han rarely met his son and Wei Zifu. One day, Liu Ju went to see his mother and stayed in the palace for a long time before coming out. So the eunuch Su Wen told Emperor Che that Liu Ju molested the palace maids. Liu Che married Liu Ju's 200 palace maids to the emperor. When Liu Ju found out, he naturally hated Su Wen.
This was not the first time that Su Wen had done this. He had been secretly investigating Liu Ju's faults with the eunuchs Chang Rong, Wang Bi and others, and then reported them to Emperor Liu Che with exaggeration. Wei Zifu was of course not satisfied, so she asked Liu Ju to find an opportunity to tell Liu Che to kill those people. However, Liu Ju trusted his father very much and felt that he had nothing to fear as he was upright. Liu Che certainly did not believe her.
But one time, Liu Che was not feeling well, so he asked Chang Rong to find Liu Ju. When Chang Rong came back, he told Liu Che that the prince had a look of joy on his face. Liu Che felt a little uncomfortable. When Liu Ju came, he observed Chang Rong's expression and found that there were traces of tears on his face and he was forcing a smile. He found it very strange and discovered the truth after a careful investigation, so he executed Chang Rong.
Wei Zifu herself was also very careful and tried hard to avoid suspicion, but Wei Qing was gone and she did not have a strong maternal family to support her. In addition, Huo Qubing also passed away in 117 BC. It can be said that Wei Zifu and Liu Ju had lost all support. Naturally, the life of the mother and son was not as good as when Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were still alive.
However, the conspiracy against Liu Ju has never ceased. "
