In Huai, Jiangnan, the cultural industry was very prosperous, and there were dozens of great scholars in Huaibei. They wrote paintings, wrote poems and essays, and would be remembered in hundreds of years. They can be said to be a symbol of the development of Confucianism in one dynasty.

What Liu Yu wants to remove today is these Confucian scholars who have nothing to do after eating.

There are many Confucian officials in Huaibei. They have the support of Confucians behind them, praise Confucianism and educate the villagers with etiquette and law. This was also excellent, and Liu Yu did not intend to change this method of governing the place that has been continued for hundreds of years. What annoyed Liu Yu was the boldness of these Confucians.

Because of the negligence of public opinion control in this era, and local officials covered these Confucians, the Confucians felt that they were the throat of the times. They wrote books to characterize some people in the dynasty. Liu Yu, who was the culprit of "usurpation of the country", was naturally nailed to the title of "traitor". Originally, he was famous and foreign affairs, Liu Yu recognized him. Who knew that after careful investigation, Liu Yu found that these people's original intention of this public opinion was to prepare for the restoration of King Su Zhe of Chu. Among them was the figure of Ling Hui's old father-in-law, former Minister of Personnel Yu Hui.

If someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend others, but if someone offends me, I will return it. Now that I'm bullied over my head, Liu Yu will not be able to overcome the psychological barrier if he doesn't do anything.

The question of orthodoxy has always been the thorn hanging above Liu Yu's head.

Liu Yu also knew that these Confucians were the operators of the pens of the era, and those who later used the pens were in the same way as them. To make things difficult for them was to make things difficult for their own reputation, but Liu Yu still had to take action. So what if he was scolded by history? Lao Tzu usurped the country to be a powerful minister, and celebrities would never expect from the ages. It would be good to have a lot of infatuation for thousands of years.

Of course, after Liu Yu came to Dongning Mansion, he had not shown any tendency in this regard. Now he seems easy to talk. Even if Ling Hui showed his face, he would greet him with a smile.

After Ling Hui returned home nervously, he found that there was no movement in the palace, so naturally he became more careful and alert.

After the assassin incident, the palace's defense did not strengthen, but was a little lazy. Liu Yu also specially sent Dingguo Marquis Liu Zhao to lead some guards to the next stop to open the road. After all, the Luan Carriage would only rest in Dongning Prefecture for two days, and the ultimate destination of the emperor's Luan Carriage is Jiankang City, the central city in Huainan.

After having a night visit to Dongning Mansion on the first night, Liu Yu seemed to be no longer interested in everything about Dongning Mansion. During the day on April 2nd, Liu Yu stayed in Dongning Mansion and did not come out. Even if the local officials were invited to see him, he could not enter.

The calmer the palace, the more nervous the prefect's mansion is.

Ling Hui sent a lot of people to stare at the prefect's mansion and go to the city to inquire about the situation. It was dusk that Ling Hui learned about a piece of news that surprised him. The assassin was just fabricated by Liu Yu, and the so-called assassin was just a small merchant who was about to be chopped off from the gambling house.

"It's indeed a frame-up!" Ling Hui, who learned the news, punched the coffee table. His worries since yesterday were finally confirmed, and the seemingly easy-to-talk Lin Wang actually had a ill-hearted intention.

But after a moment of impulse, Ling Hui also felt weak in his arms because he could not guess what Liu Yu was going to do.

At this moment, the Ling family's housekeeper came to report that someone was in the back hall to ask for a meeting.

Ling Hui thought about it and found that at this time, he was only his "old friends". Who dared to visit him when the wind was so loud? Ling Hui quickly calmed down and went to the back hall to see this uninvited guest.

When the man unbuttoned his hood, Ling Hui was a little angry because this person was nothing but Niu Lu, the commander of Dongning Mansion who fought with him in the palace yesterday.

"Vice Niu Du, what are you doing? Don't you know that this is an extraordinary time?" Ling Hui saw that it was Niu Lu, so he hurriedly closed the door himself. Although he was at his own home, he was still very cautious. Because it was his family that he was worried that he would be followed by Liu Yu.

"Brother Ling, don't worry. My old niao has already investigated it before I came to visit, and there was no movement in the palace. Besides, he didn't seem to be suspicious of me, Old Niao, and he wouldn't have thought that I would come to see you at this time."

Ling Hui said hatefully: "Even if there is no movement, you don't know what he is doing! Yesterday, when you and I were neglecting to guard against you, he had already visited Dongning Mansion and found a scapegoat to pretend to be an assassin!"

Niu Lu immediately said, "I came for this matter."

If Liu Yu framed this trick, it was not very clever for Niu Lu and Ling Hui. Just find someone who had nothing to do with the prefect's office and the garrison camp, and it was still so popular in the gambling house. In Niu Lu and Ling Hui's opinion, perhaps Liu Yu himself felt that the frame was a bit clumsy, so he did not have a farce of confronting or directly arresting people, but this had already aroused the vigilance of Niu Lu and Ling Hui.

Niu Lu and Ling Hui exchanged information with each other, and the results obtained were roughly the same, that is, Liu Yu visited the gambling hall at night during a night out of a guillotine and bought a life under the guillotine to frame it. Needless to say, the man is still in the palace, so it is not clear whether Liu Yu is going to continue to make a big fuss about the assassin.

"Vice Niu Du, what do you think he is going to do? Since he is willing to make things difficult for me, why hasn't he done so far?"

On weekdays, although Ling Hui looks smart and cunning, he is actually more courageous than Niu Lu, a general. Otherwise, Liu Yu would not easily see some clues from his attitude, and Niu Lu performed well in front of Liu Yu. Niu Lu is an acting school, while Ling Hui is not good at disguising. If Liu Yu had not defined Ling Hui as a villain in his heart, and Niu Lu's performance in the palace was somewhat inclined, Liu Yu would not have seen that Niu Lu and Ling Hui had collusion behind their backs.

At this time, Niu Lu's purpose was also very simple. He was not to ask Ling Hui for his next move, but to give advice.

Niu Lu said viciously: "I think he wants to numb you and go out of the city to bring reinforcements!"

Ling Hui was a little surprised. He was becoming increasingly unable to understand this matter. For a Confucian official who is good at playing with pens and educating the people, you have a bit of profound conspiracy. Even if he tries to interpret Liu Yu's actions, he still can't make up for it. In this matter, Liu Yu was determined to frame things, but he stopped halfway and then seemed to have no following.

"What kind of reinforcements?" Ling Hui asked.

"Are you here to investigate your reinforcements!" Niu Lu said, "Earlier, the garrison battalion had received a secret message from Liu Yu, saying that he would be waiting for dispatch tomorrow night. It seems that Liu Wenyan is ready to fight in the city tomorrow night and attack you!"

"To me?" Ling Hui took a breath of cold air.

"It's not just you, maybe Yu Gong, Sun Lao, He Shangshu and others, and Liu Wenyan wants to find a hole in you..."

Ling Hui became more and more shocked the more he heard it. His own safety was a trivial matter, and he was just afraid that the people behind the scenes would be implicated.

Niu Lu continued: "Since yesterday, things were rushed. Liu Yu might want to attack you, but he stopped. This proves that he is not alone in getting rid of you, Brother Ling. As far as I know, he has sent people to many local garrison camps in Huaibei Province, or plans to carry out this big operation tomorrow night, and you are not the only one you want to get. So he seems to be very lazy now, numbing you, and then acting when the time is ripe tomorrow night."

Ling Hui said angrily: "This Liu Wenyan is so vicious. If he is implicated by others because of this, I, Ling Daoqi, will not be able to atone for my sins."

"Now, there are only two ways before you, and there is no other way." Niu Lu's face was a little embarrassed.

When Ling Hui saw Niu Lu's expression, he knew that Niu Lu had a certain plan in his heart. He hurriedly asked, "Those two roads?"

"The first way, you 'inflict suicide' and things will be cut off from you, so that even if he is determined to frame things, it will be difficult to expand the matter."

When Ling Hui heard Niu Lu say this, his face immediately became ugly.

“There is a second way?”

"Be the best to take action first, take advantage of his neglect of defense, um." Niu Lubi made a gesture, "But... this is a bit of a risk!"

…………

On the afternoon of the second day of April, Liu Yu stayed in the Dongning Mansion Palace to accompany his woman. After rushing along the way, the women were a little tired and it was rare not to have to rush. The whole family got together and rested more harmoniously.

Xu Xuanzhu is pregnant. After several days of continuous travel, she has a minor illness and needs to rest. However, Qier is young and does not know the taste of sorrow. As soon as she recovers, she wants to go out for a walk.

Liu Yu advised: "You are the emperor now, so you can't run around outside casually. Besides, Dongning Mansion is not as prosperous as Chang'an City, and there is nothing to see when you go out. Have a good rest for two days and we will set off again the morning after tomorrow."

Qi'er felt a little wronged. It was okay if she didn't become an emperor before, but Liu Yu would accommodate her in any matter. Now that she became an emperor, she was not as comfortable as before. Even if she had to play for a while, she would be stared at her, for fear that something would happen to her.

Qier pouted and asked, "Is there no temple fair in Dongning Mansion?"

"No." Liu Yu smiled and shook his head.

"Ah, what's so special here? Husband, even if you don't let me go out and have a look, I'll tell you."

Liu Yu had just arrived in Dongning Mansion and went out yesterday. He knew nothing except knowing how many brothels and gambling houses there were in Dongning Mansion... and he obviously wasn't suitable to tell Qier about these things.

"There is a girl's school in Dongning Mansion." Liu Yu said after thinking about it.

"What is a girl's college?"

"It is the school where all the students are women, where you can read, write, recite poems and paint."

Qi'er closed her eyes and thought for a moment, and suddenly asked with interest: "Will they go out to fly kites together?"

Liu Yu was stunned when asked, and then smiled and said, "Maybe, in spring, I might really go out to fly kites together in spring."

"My husband, I'm going too..." Qi'er imagined a beautiful scene of a group of young girls flying kites. She was unmoved and began to pull Liu Yu's arm and beg him.

"It's all right to go with them, but now let the palace maids prepare kites and let them accompany you in the yard."

Qier didn't care much when she heard that there were fun things. She stood up happily with Liu Yu. Liu Yu thought it was not easy to be a kite, but there was no suitable craftsman around her.
