Chapter 66 The Emperor Bestows Characters, the Son of Heaven's Pure Minister

Tang Ying was going to meet the saint, which shocked Tang Mao.

As a former prefect of Kuaiji, he dreamed of being favored by Liu Xie and serving as an official in Xudu court.

"Ying'er, please don't mention what my father just said in front of your majesty. Also, if your majesty asks about my father... please speak kindly."

Tang Mao walked beside Tang Ying's car on his old legs, nagging back and forth.

The descendants of the Tang family were useless, so he could only show his old face and let Liu Xie take care of him.

"Father, in fact, what happens to the Tang family in the future cannot be controlled by my father alone. Even if we fall into a poor family, as long as the descendants of the next generation are promising, we may not be able to re-establish the family. If the descendants of the Tang family are incapable, the family will be broken up.

so what?"

Tang Ying opened the car curtain, looked at the panting Tang Mao, and persuaded.

"Alas! My father is well-versed in history books, how could he not know this truth? After all, the Tang family is not a large family that has been passed down for generations?" Tang Mao sighed and handed down the crown on his head. Being the patriarch of the clan was too tiring.

He really doesn't want to be a kid anymore.

Xudu, imperial palace.

Emperor Liu Xie returned to Queen Fushou's palace from the Chancellery with a tired look on his face.

Although Grand Sikong Cao Cao was not in Xudu, the power of the court was still controlled by Cao Cao's people.

Among the five great counselors, Xun Yu, Xun You, Jia Xu, Liu Ye, and Guo Jia, only Xun Yu had some sympathy for the emperor Liu Xie. The other four, including his clan relative Liu Ye, were not trustworthy.

It was a rare court meeting, and the matters discussed had been agreed upon long before they were presented to him. Such a puppet emperor made Liu Xie, who was in his early twenties and still ambitious, feel very angry.

"Your Majesty, you must calm down. This palace is not as good as before..." Queen Fu Shou sat closely against Liu Xie, with an intimate expression, but her eyes were as cold as ice.

The palace change in the fifth year of Jian'an is right before our eyes.

Fu Shou clearly remembered that people who were close to Liu Xie in the palace were killed one by one. The newly added waiters and maids in the palace did not know their details. If they were reported, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Of all the ministers in the world, who is a loyal person?" Liu Xiechang sighed, and only in front of Queen Fushou could he take off his disguise and talk about his depression.

"Your Majesty, Princess Hongnong has entered the palace?" Fu Shou and Liu Xie talked about their worries for a while, and then they talked about Princess Hongnong Tang Ying's arrival in Xudu.

"The emperor's sister-in-law is here? Is there anything difficult? Well, Zi Tong has worked hard to see her on my behalf. If you need money or silk, I will try my best to give it to her."

Liu Xie nodded and said to Fu Shou.

Tang Ying was the concubine of Hongnong King Liu Bian, with a poor and lonely life experience.

Liu Xie subconsciously thought that Tang Ying came here to ask for his help.

"Your Majesty, please remember that Princess Hongnong has a cousin from the clan who was appointed by Your Majesty to be the prefect of Fangling. Now it has happened..." Fu Shou stepped forward, arranged Liu Xie's robes, and whispered softly.

"Zi Tong is talking about Wei Shi, how could he have such ability?" Liu Xie looked surprised. He had previously issued an edict to appoint Wei Shi as the governor of Fangling. It was just a test. He didn't expect that Wei Shi would actually succeed.

.

"Your Majesty, if there is a chance, I will talk to Princess Hongnong about the affairs of the Wei Governor." After Fu Shou helped Liu Xie undress, he left with his maid.

Her meeting with Tang Ying was a private gathering between the female family members. On weekdays, Fu Shou also had contact with the family members of important officials in the court, so it did not attract much attention.

In order to deceive others, Fu Shou also specially invited the family members of important officials in the court. During the banquet, the two of them avoided everyone, and Tang Ying revealed Wei Shi's request for a cousin.

"Prefect Wei hasn't given me a letter yet. The emperor's sister-in-law wants your majesty to give me a letter. This can be done. If your majesty knows about it, you will definitely be very happy."

Fu Shou was very happy to hear that Wei Shi had asked Liu Xie for help.

If it were the original Tang Ying, Fu Shou wouldn't have paid much attention to it, but it was different now. Wei Shi had just served as the governor of Fangling and had the real power of a county.

Fangling is not far from Xudu.

Fu Shou remembered that Wei Shi even led troops to Yingchuan County at the beginning of the year and was said to have defeated a Cao army.

Since he is the governor of a county and has military power, such a powerful official naturally needs to be carefully recruited.

"Of all the princes in the world, only Governor Wei is loyal to His Majesty. Sister-in-law, you are the person that Your Majesty and I trust the most. We must not let the continuation of the Han Dynasty be interrupted."

On the occasion of his final farewell, Fu Shou expressed his feelings to Tang Ying.

She and Liu Xie have already given birth to two sons. According to the inheritance of the throne, one of them will be the prince, and she will be the empress dowager in the future. However, judging from the current political situation, the possibility of her becoming the empress dowager is getting smaller and smaller.

When Cao Cao takes power, he will definitely not allow her son to succeed him as emperor.

Fu Shou was interested in Wei Shi, so he whispered in Liu Xie's ears, and the matter of the emperor's granting of the title was quickly settled.

In his subsequent private edict, Liu Xie thought that the stone of Wei was indestructible and possessed the spirit of bravery, so he took a sentence from "The Book of Songs Beating Drums": From Sun Zi Zhong, Ping Chen and Song Dynasty! He chose the epistle for Wei Shi: Zizhong

.

"The bond between life and death is broad, I told Zicheng. Hold your hand and grow old together with me. Zizhong, did you hear it?" Tang Ying silently recited the second half of the drumming, her mood fluctuated, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

This trip to Xudu had a different meaning to her than in the past.

In the past, when she met Fu Shou when she entered the palace, she could feel his pity, but now, Tang Ying felt the active intimacy from Liu Xie and Fu Shou.

All these changes are due to Wei Shi standing behind her.

"Captain Guo, after you go back, inform Governor Wei that I will move to Nanyutang in Luoyang. If you need anything, you can come to Luoyang to see me."

After Tang Ying returned to her villa in Yanxian County, she handed Liu Xie's private edict to Guo Peng, and then she gave another special instruction.

Here in Yan County, the situation of the Tang family is going from bad to worse. Once Tang Mao resigns as clan leader, the Tang family may no longer be as polite to Tang Ying as they are now, so moving out early is just a precaution.

Wei Shi didn't know it at this time, but he originally wanted to ask Tang Ying to help him get his surname, because Tang Ying forced Wei Shi to change his surname, and in the end it was changed to Emperor Liu Xie's surname.

If the emperor bestows a cousin with a cousin, if this honor spreads around, who wouldn't be envious and jealous?

From now on, no one will blame Wei Shi for coming from a poor family.

Of course, there are also disadvantages to this.

Wei Shihui was duly labeled as Liu Xiechunchen because of the title.

Even if he was willing to surrender, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Liu Biao and other princes with their own agendas would not trust Wei Shi.

"A pure minister will be a pure minister. I, Wei Shi, conduct myself and do things with no regrets. I am worthy of your majesty and worthy of the common people. What is there to be afraid of?"
