Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 83
As Liu Ling spoke, he entered the hall and pointed to the two boxes on the hall. "A little gift, I hope you don't dislike it."

When Liang Xiao saw those two boxes, he knew they were worth a lot.Although his hands were tight, he was embarrassed to accept Liu Ling's generous gift again and again.He hastily declined, but before he could speak, Liu Ling smiled.

"Liang Xiao, I originally hoped that you would enter the Huainan Palace. If you refused, you must serve the court. The Huainan Palace cannot compete with the emperor, so I can only give up. But the Huainan Palace cannot lose to the Pingyanghou Palace. Pingyang Hou recommended When you become an official, I have to give you some vulgar things. With your talent, you will rise to prominence sooner or later. I don’t want people in the world to only remember the Marquis of Pingyang, but forget that I, the Prince of Huainan, was the first to fall in love with you. "

After hearing this, Liang Xiao didn't know how to explain it.This Marquis of Pingyang is not that Marquis of Pingyang, this is the Son of Heaven.No matter how powerful your Huainan Palace is, do you want to compete with the emperor?But Liu Ling said so, and he was not easy to refuse, otherwise, wouldn't it hurt the face of the Huainan Palace?

"My Lord's kindness of knowing you, I will never forget it, this gift..."

Before Liang Xiao could finish his courtesy, Liu Ling grabbed his hand with one hand and stared into his eyes. "A word from a gentleman..."

Liang Xiao didn't understand, and looked at Liu Ling blankly. "My lord, you..."

"You just said that you will never forget my kindness." Liu Ling blushed slightly, but refused to let go, staring at Liang Xiao and said: "If you forget someday, don't blame me for knocking you out." All the teeth."

Liang Xiao suddenly realized, and quickly said: "My lord, don't worry, a gentleman will never chase after you. I, Liang Xiao, will never forget the kindness of my lord."

"Then I'm relieved. It's a blessing in disguise. I failed to recruit you into the Huainan Palace, but I gained a close friend, which is not a failure."

"Master Weng really has good eyes and ears." A chuckle came from outside the door. "I just arranged a place for Liang Xiao, and you got there first. Could it be that you are unconvinced by the loss and want to compete?"

In the voice, accompanied by Li Danghu, Liu Che walked in with a smile.

When Liang Xiao saw it, his head immediately grew bigger.Liu Ling is the Weng Lord, and Liu Che is the Son of Heaven. Since Liu Ling traveled in Chang'an, there is absolutely no reason why the two of them do not know each other.Seeing Marquis Pingyang in person, can Liu Ling not recognize him as the Son of Heaven?Once the word is broken, how can this play be performed?
Liu Ling stood up, glanced at Liang Xiao, and snickered at the corner of his mouth.She cupped her hands at Liu Che: "Junhou, you are not slow in coming. However, I still take the first step."

"Even if he takes the lead, he will not go to Huainan. I advise the Lord not to waste his efforts." Liu Che glanced at Liu Ling triumphantly. "I don't know if Lord Weng knows about Liang Xiao's talk with Dongfang Shuo in the afternoon. I appreciate it very much. No, I'm here to discuss it with him. If Lord Weng is interested, why don't you listen to it?"

"Really?" Liu Ling raised his head unconvinced. "I think so too."

Seeing this posture, Liang Xiao suddenly understood.Liu Ling must have known that Marquis Pingyang was the emperor, and because of this, when she learned that she wanted to go to the court and serve the emperor, she didn't insist.She deliberately mentioned Marquis Pingyang to him at that time, on the one hand, to hint at him, and on the other hand, she might also be testing him to see why he refused to enter the Huainan palace, and whether he wanted to serve the emperor as an excuse or sincerity.

If he agreed to the "Marquis of Pingyang", then he would look down on the Huainan Palace. Not only would Liu Ling not give gifts, he would stab him in the back if he failed.

It turns out that everyone is the actor and actress, and they all think that the other party doesn't know.He has prior knowledge, but Liu Ling has no script and improvises.

Liang Xiao secretly wiped off his cold sweat, and ordered Li Rongqing to boil water for the guests.He just moved here, and there is no wine at home, only water instead.

Liu Che and Liu Ling took their seats. One of them was the "Marquis" and the other was the Lord Weng, they were evenly matched.However, Liu Ling obviously didn't dare to sit on an equal footing with Liu Che, so he consciously took the guest seat.Even though Liang Xiao was the host, he didn't have a temper right now, so he could only sit with him obediently.Even a "Marquis of Pingyang" is an extremely noble existence for a commoner like him.

After saying a few gossips, Liu Che got straight to the point and directly talked about the topic that Liang Xiao and Dongfang Shuo discussed in the afternoon.He unabashedly expressed his support for Liang Xiao, thinking that we should look forward and not remain unchanged.

Liu Ling immediately refuted it, insisting on following the sage's footsteps, restoring the rule of the three generations, and continuing Huang Lao Wuwei's way of governing the country.

The two talked to each other, arguing heatedly, but they left Liang Xiao, the instigator, aside.

After listening for a while, Liang Xiao understood his position.This is a fight between the King of Hades and a kid watching a show.

Liu Che had just ascended the throne, he was young and vigorous, and he wanted to make a career.Of course, he doesn't want to follow the old ways, follow the ways of Huang Lao, and govern the country by doing nothing.His forward looking hit Liu Che's heart, and immediately won Liu Che's sympathy.Facing the Empress Dowager Dou's family, Liu Che might not dare to say anything, but facing Liu Ling, he didn't have so many scruples, and he could vent all his grievances on Liu Ling.

And Liu Ling also felt a deep sense of crisis.Her father, Liu An, had just written a big book "Huainanzi", which was claimed to be a masterpiece of Taoism. The most important purpose was to promote the way of Huang and Lao, and let the ambitious new emperor abide by the rule of peace and inaction.Only in this way can Huainan Kingdom continue to maintain its status as an independent kingdom.

Although the demise of the Huainan Kingdom was ultimately related to Huainan King Liu An's conspiracy, it is an indisputable fact that Liu Che's implementation of the Tweet Order after he came to power further weakened the power of the vassal states and strengthened the centralization of power.At the beginning of his accession to the throne, he showed signs of wanting to make a difference. Liu An probably already smelled it, so he didn't miss a chance and stopped it with all his strength.

This is not only a dispute between two kinds of academics, but also a struggle between two political forces, and he just acted as a fuse just at the right time.

Liang Xiao secretly rejoiced.Fortunately, he did not accept the recruitment of the Huainan Palace, otherwise he would be hard to argue with now.

Of course, there is no chance for him to speak now, Liu Che and Liu Ling are arguing red-faced, and he can only be a spectator.

Suddenly, Liu Che stopped talking and asked, "Liang Xiao, what do you think?"

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment, then bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Weng, I am just a commoner who was taught by my mother and can only know a few words. I don't understand the principles you are talking about. However, from my personal For example, whoever makes thousands of civilians like me change their destiny with their own efforts is right. Whoever makes civilians like me have no way out is wrong. , doing nothing, isn’t it all for the well-being of the whole world?”
