There are thousands of styles and faces in the world. It is impossible for everyone to know and understand you, and it is impossible for everyone to bow to you and obey your orders. Many times, all you can do is not forget your original intention and walk on alone. .
It was difficult to reconcile the opinions of the public and the law was not punishable. Su Ran walked slowly towards the palace for about two miles. The common people had surrounded Su Ran one by one. Some were standing on the upper floors, some flew to the top of the buildings, and some were stacked on top of each other. There was a wall of people, and for a while, the scene was very lively.
At first, the people in Chang'an only dared to stand in the distance and point at him. As Su Ran gradually moved towards the downtown area and got closer to the imperial city of Gyeonggi, more and more onlookers grew, and the people became bolder. Some people said He is not afraid of things, some people criticize him for not overestimating his own abilities, some people praise him for being an upright gentleman, and some people criticize him for not knowing current affairs.
Everyone insists on one thing, and when outsiders hear it, it makes a lot of noise!
Gradually, in the cold weather of early spring, Su Ran's knees tore his linen pants and bled. Every time he took a step, the blood from his knees left two bright red spots on the ground, step by step, one drop by one. The dots became thicker and thicker. Finally, the blood flowed more and more, leaving a long blood mark on the ground. At this time, Su Ran's ears were finally silent!
The expressions of everyone present were replaced by sympathy and admiration.
Su Ran didn't stop moving, and while speaking, he glanced lightly. Seeing that the onlookers were all deep in thought, he chuckled in his heart and thought: There are three things that make a noble family powerful, and one of them is that people's support is against them. If this person's heart is biased, the difference is thousands of miles. Since ancient times, the kinder the human heart is, the deeper the Taoism will be; and vice versa.
It turned out that the reason why Su Ran took so much trouble to kneel in through the city gate was that he had planned it long ago. He wanted to use this to win over people's hearts and gain the support of the people, and this was what he had to do today.
If he, Su Ran, can walk to the gate of the imperial city safely, then half of the matter is done. If he is not safe on the way, then the matter is finished.
The brief silence did not last long. Several whispers suddenly came from the crowd. The onlookers seemed to have heard something horrifying and quickly dispersed in fear. After the onlookers had dispersed, a strange phenomenon immediately appeared in front of Su Ran. .
A group of people wrapped in black silk, wearing black clothes and black trousers, holding sickles, blocked Su Ran's path.
Seeing the changes in front of him, Su Ran felt happy. He knew that the real big fish had taken the bait.
Anyone who can come to intercept him at this time, as long as he is not a fool, will naturally think of Liu Gan, and as long as the interceptor takes action, no matter how reasonable Liu Gan is, it will become unreasonable!
Su Ran was not intimidated by the killer in front of him. He remained unmoved and continued to kneel down step by step, completely ignoring the soldiers and horses coming from behind and the assassins coming from behind. He knew that he was not the only one fighting at this moment!
...
According to the book "Mo Yu", when the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty was in power, a black dragon swept out from Nanshan and drank from the Wei River. The land it passed turned into a mountain range, which was more than 60 miles long, with its head touching the Wei River and its tail reaching Fan. Sichuan.
Based on this, after Emperor Gaozu established the Han Empire, Xiao He built Weiyang Palace, with the intention of beheading the dragon and ruling the world.
The word "Weiyang" first came from "The Book of Songs·Xiaoya·Hongyanzhishi·Tingliao", which says, "How is the night? The night is still young, the light of the courtyard is burning."
In the Han Dynasty, the Han people gave it the beautiful meanings of "everlasting life" and "younger happiness".
Over the years, the term "Weiyang Palace" has not only represented the center of the Han Dynasty's political decrees, but has also become a symbol of national power and the beautiful yearning of the Han people. The main hall (front hall) of the Great Dynasty is located at Longshouyuan, the highest point of the imperial capital Chang'an, which reflects the "unusual" The magnificence cannot be compared with the majesty, which is the secret symbol of Weiyang's name.
The front hall of Weiyang Palace is made of fragrant and precious magnolias as rafters, and elegant apricot wood as beams and columns. The roof rafters are covered with gold foil, and there are golden cloud and dragon patterns on the door leaves. The facade is decorated with jade and gilded copper. The pavement is inlaid with various gemstones. The corridor railings are carved with delicate and elegant patterns, and the windows are blue and white, carved with antique patterns. In front of the temple, there is a slope on the left for riding on the car, and steps on the right for people to climb up. There are tall wooden pillars standing on the foundation stone. The purple-red ground and the golden walls are interspersed with the most precious jade in the world. The front hall is the place of great dynasty, and its architectural luxury is unmatched by other palaces.
Since the completion of Weiyang Palace, successive Han emperors have lived here for generations.
After Emperor Xiaoren and Liu Chan restored the Han Dynasty, they returned the capital to Chang'an, which naturally continued this royal tradition. However, the purpose of each palace was different from before.
Today's morning court meeting in Weiyang Palace, all the officials were sitting on their knees as usual. However, their hearts were more restless and less calm, and the organizers were also a little careless. Everyone's spirits were tied to that. The governor of Liaoxi County all wanted to see a result, a result that some would be happy and some would be worried about.
Only the emperor Liu Yan, who was sitting on the Dragon Throne, was wearing twelve robes covering his knees, a ribbon, a red jacket, a black top and a vermilion lower skirt, and he was sitting steadily on the Dragon Throne.
Liu Yan seemed to have no knowledge of this matter. His big eyes were staring at Prime Minister Lu Zheng who was doing something. He nodded from time to time and made thoughtful comments from time to time. He was as serious as ever.
Although the names of the "Five Dukes" in the imperial court are tied, the prime minister is the most respected in literature, the general is the leader in military affairs, and the others follow. The seating arrangement in the morning court today is also based on this principle. The first civil servant is Lu Zheng, the emperor's teacher, and the military general The first is General Tao Kan.
This kind of ranking has existed since ancient times, so it is not surprising.
However, in the past ten years or so, the only person whose ranking in the imperial court has been slightly different is that of the emperor's uncle Liu Qian.
The emperor sat on the steps, Liu Gan sat in the middle, and the officials sat at the bottom. They were closer to the emperor than Lu Zheng and Tao Kan. It can be seen that Liu Gan's status was very transcendent.
Although the former king Shenwu Emperor Liu Chen was a virtuous king, he really did not dare to flatter him in terms of employing people in his later years.
Sixteen years ago, when Liu Chen was dying, he was entrusted to five ministers, namely Liu Chen's younger brother Liu Qian, Lu Zheng who was the current emperor Liu Yan, and Liu Huo who was the prime minister at the time. Fu, Liu Quansheng's grandfather), Wu Shuizi who was the servant at the time, and Murong Jinchuan who was the Shaofu at the time.
Although these five ministers are all talented in governing the country, they can't form a synergy when they get together. They often have evil intentions and make the affairs of the court go in the wrong direction. This also makes the family in the late period of Emperor Shenwu and the early period of the current emperor Liu Yan, Crazy development, only four years after Liu Yan ascended the throne, he was bold enough to cause chaos in the capital.
Time has passed, three of the five ministers have passed away, and the remaining two have become highly respected ministers. However, Lu Zheng did not sit opposite Liu Gan, but sat at the foot of the steps, which is somewhat intriguing.
Some outsiders thought it was the emperor's respect for the emperor's uncle, but the old guys who were in high officialdom knew clearly that your majesty was putting Liu Gan on the fire!
Whether Liu Gan knew this meaning is unknown to outsiders.
