Reborn Prince Liu Ju

Chapter 050 Shojin lost Marquis

After Cao Xiang passed away, the title of Marquis of Pingyang was inherited by his only son Cao Zong. Because he was the eldest son of the princess, the process of inheriting the title was very smooth, but Princess Wei and Cao Xiang were childhood sweethearts. Sad, and finally depressed.

The empress loves her daughter so much that she often takes Princess Wei into the palace for a short stay. While comforting her daughter, she keeps her eyes open on the young disciples in the court. After all, Liu Yan is young because she has a good relationship with Cao Xiang. After a few years of work , but also to find someone to live a new life.

The relationship between Liu Ju and the elder sister has always been very good. Whenever Princess Wei enters the palace, he will take Liu Jin to accompany her.The little guy is more than half a year old, he looks chubby, he can't speak or walk, but he smiles when he sees people, and he is a very useful pistachio.

In Liu Ju's view, the premature deaths of Cao Xiang and Princess Wei in the previous life were due to completely different reasons. Cao Xiang was a chronic disease that could not be cured. The emperor is to bear the primary responsibility.

Originally, Cao Xiangying's early death was a big blow to Princess Wei, but it was not enough to say that she became ill because of worry. After all, Liu Yan's body was still very good, and she had a young child. My son needs to be cared for, and will not allow himself to grieve endlessly.

For Princess Wei, Luan Da's appearance was the real fatal blow.The emperor believed in alchemy and valued alchemists, and it was certainly true. Those who were valued by him would never lack gold, silver, wealth, fame and fortune, otherwise Luan Da would not have the qualifications to be the lord just because he was named a marquis.

But the emperor has never been very patient with the alchemists. This is also a fact that is clearly in front of people's eyes. No matter how many times they have been reused, as long as the emperor realizes that his spells are no longer effective, the fate of those alchemists is almost the same. How high you climb and how miserable you fall.

When Princess Wei remarried Luan Da, it was the time when he had the most face in front of the emperor. The emperor gave the remarried eldest daughter a generous dowry and a wealthy Tang Muyi, and Luan Da himself had good looks and conversation. Marriage doesn't look so bad on the surface.

Unexpectedly, less than a year after the marriage, Luan Da was cut in half by the emperor's order. Although the princess would not be involved in this matter, the psychological blow was self-evident.After Luan Da's death, Princess Wei lost all interest in remarrying, and died in depression within two years.

Now, Luan Da's magic stick has played himself off. After this blow, the emperor can't say that he has no pursuit of immortal alchemists, but he has become more cautious than before. Therefore, Liu Ju has reason to believe that his father should I will no longer cheat my daughter in marriage.

Princess Wei has just lost her husband, so she will not think about marriage for the time being. She is more concerned about Liu Ju's marriage: "Ji'er, do you plan to just leave the position of Crown Princess empty? Empress Shi Liang's mother is expensive because of her son..."

Liu Ju hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "Let's leave it alone for now, and we'll talk about it later." The Han Dynasty did not have high requirements for the queen's parentage. , Shi Liangdi's background is not bad, and she has a son, so it's not surprising that she is in the top position.

Seeing that Liu Ju had no intention of making Shi Liangdi the Crown Princess, Princess Wei thought about it, and said softly, "Ji'er, do you really have no idea about Wuwu?" Liu Ju refused to marry Wei Wuji Well, Wei Qing actually has no idea, even if he is not a son-in-law, a nephew is still a nephew.

On the contrary, Princess Pingyang expressed a certain degree of concern about this. In her opinion, the closer the relationship between the Wei family and the royal family, the better. The queen and the princess are both members of the Wei family, which is a great thing , but the prince is unwilling, the meaning behind it is a bit complicated.

Princess Wei is not only the niece of Princess Pingyang, but also her daughter-in-law, so naturally she will not hide any thoughts from her.

Moreover, Princess Pingyang also knows that Princess Wei and the prince have always been sisters and brothers. She really wants to find out why the prince refused to marry. It is obviously a good thing to have the best of both worlds. The Wei family is alienated.

If it’s the former, it’s okay. The emperor and the Chen family were also cousins ​​after they were abolished. Afterwards, they lived in anger and resentment. In the end, the Chen family was abolished and retired to Nagato Palace. It can be seen that the cousins ​​of childhood sweethearts became husband and wife. May not be able to live well.

What Princess Pingyang is worried about is nothing more than the latter, although on the surface, the prince does not have any such tendency.

"Why did my sister suddenly ask this? Did my aunt ask you to ask?" Liu Ju got it right because he knew that his uncle would never ask such a thing, so he smiled and said, "I always regard worry-free as My sister, but I never thought about marrying her."

"Is this the reason?" Princess Wei was skeptical, always feeling that Liu Shi's reasons were too weak.

Liu Ju nodded, and said seriously: "Of course that's it, sister, don't think too complicated, no matter what, uncles are uncles, and this will not change, and if you don't enter the palace without worry, you may live a more comfortable life .”

Princess Wei thought about it, so she stopped talking and lowered her head to tease Liu Jin who smiled at her with a small face.

In the blink of an eye, in the fifth year of Yuanding, the famous case of missing the Marquis of Jinjin happened.

Alcohol gold is the tribute offered by the princes to the imperial court for sacrificial offerings. When the princes offered the Alcohol gold, the emperor came to receive the gold in person.If the gold donated by the princes is insufficient in quantity or fineness, it will be punished as "sitting gold", and the king will cut down the county and the prince will be exempted from the country.

In fact, no one would make such a low-level mistake. The gold offered by the princes was not specially ordered to be prepared. How could it be insufficient in quality? However, when the emperor wants to weaken the princes, it is a good excuse. That's all.

At the beginning of the year, the emperor sent Han Qianqiu and the Empress Dowager's younger brother, Yu Le, to lead 2000 troops to South Vietnam.And when Han Qianqiu and Yu Le entered South Vietnam, the Prime Minister Lu Jia and others launched a rebellion.Lu Jia was the first to create public opinion, saying that Zhao Xing, the king of Nanyue, was too young, and the queen mother was from the Central Plains, and had an affair with the envoy of the Han Dynasty.Then Lu Jia took the opportunity and led troops with his younger brother to attack the palace and killed Zhao Xing, the Queen Mother and the envoys of the Han Dynasty.

After Lu Jia killed Zhao Xing, he established a new king of Nanyue, and sent someone to inform Cangwu Qin King Zhao Guang and the officials of the counties and counties under the Nanyue Kingdom.At this time, Han Qianqiu's army entered the territory of South Vietnam and captured several border towns.Afterwards, the South Vietnamese pretended not to resist and provided food and drink to allow Han Qianqiu's army to advance smoothly. When they were [-] miles away from Panyu, the South Vietnamese suddenly attacked Han Qianqiu's army and wiped them all out.

Lu Jia asked people to put the talisman of the envoy of the Han Dynasty in a wooden box, and attached a letter pretending to apologize to the Han Dynasty, and placed it on the Han-Vietnamese border.

The emperor was very angry when he heard the news. On the one hand, he paid for the relatives of the victims, and on the other hand, he issued an edict to send troops to South Vietnam.

Since none of the princes responded to the call to join the army and went to South Vietnam, the emperor seized the titles of [-] princes, accounting for half of the princes at that time, including Liu Ju's cousins ​​Wei Kang, Wei Buyi, Wei Wei, etc. Deng and Han Shuo, Zhao Puonu and others.

Compared with Liu Ju's memory, there has been a slight change in the list of lost marquises of Jin Jin, with Gongsun He, Marquis of Nanlao missing, and Marquis Wei of Yichun added.This is because at the time of the decisive battle in Mobei, Gongsun He lost his way and was demoted to a common man without a title.

On the contrary, it was Mrs. and Mrs. Wei, perhaps because Liu Ju and Wei Wuyou kept a close eye on him, and did not harm Sihou because of the restraint in the first year of Yuan Ding.

The Wei family, who had a family of five princes, lost three princes in one breath. It is impossible for the government and the public to have no voices of discussion. On the contrary, Liu Ju behaved very calmly, and did not even say a word of intercession, because there was no need for that.

The emperor's father cut off the titles of his cousins, and then gave those places to his uncle, what else did he say.

Liu Ju could see clearly that the reasons for the removal of these princes by the emperor were different.Some are because he really wants to suppress people, and some are just running with him, in order to block the mouths of the princes, deter the officials, and there will be a chance to recover in the future.
