    On the way into the palace, Shen Tujia heard Wang Deyi say that the eldest princess had gone to pick up the Crown Prince back to the East Palace.

    Shen Tujia smiled bitterly in his heart, and he immediately understood what the emperor meant. It seemed that the emperor's meaning this time was very obvious. He was going to let His Highness go as a pretense, and then this mess was going to be left to  He's here to handle it.

    For a moment, this really made Shen Tujia a little hesitant.  If there was a choice between the emperor and King Wu, of course he would choose the emperor. There is no doubt about this, but the question is whether King Wu Liu Bi is easy to offend.

    He has collected a lot of dirty money from Liu Bi over the years. Who knows if this old guy has left anything ulterior?

    Although he is old now, in the position of prime minister of the Han Dynasty, he really can't let go of this position for a while.

    You must know that it is the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, and the prime minister is the real master of all officials.

    Except for the high-ranking officials with an income of more than 2,000 shi, who need the emperor's approval, the appointment and removal of the remaining middle- and lower-level officials can all be decided by the prime minister's whim.

    Furthermore, according to the etiquette regulations of the Han Dynasty, the prime minister must meet the emperor in the main hall, that is, in the Xuanshi Hall, wearing the emperor's crown and formally receiving him.

    After the prime minister has finished his speech and resigned, the emperor will stand up and escort him to the palace gate.

    This shows the high status of the Prime Minister!

    People are always like this. After tasting the sweetness of power, how could they be willing to give up so early?

    If possible, Shen Tujia certainly wants to be able to sit in this position for a long time.

    If he wants to sit in this position for a long time, the first problem he has to solve is naturally the emperor's trust.

    Now that this matter is before him, it is indeed a difficult problem.  But it is undeniable that if this problem is solved, he can gain the trust of the two generations of emperors at once.

    Although trust is usually invisible and intangible, you only need to look at Zhou Yafu's current treatment to understand how valuable this thing is.

    Taiwei Zhou Bo has been dead for so many years, and Zhou Bo's eldest son was finally deprived of his position as marquis because of murder.

    ??According to common sense, the Zhou family has completely declined at its current stage. However, Shen Tujia only mentioned it briefly, and the emperor immediately gave Zhou Yafu the position of prefect.

    ??And directly told Shen Tujia that as long as Zhou Yafu can be brought up, he can even consider returning the position of Marquis to him.

    It is no longer the time when the Han Dynasty was founded. The imperial court is actually very cautious about the title of nobility. The system of nobility without military merit has been implemented for many years.

    But just because of the blessings of his ancestors, the emperor was able to make up his mind to give the Zhou family another chance.

    During this Xiongnu invasion, Zhou Yafu¡¯s choice was certainly correct, but the final result really made everyone heartbroken.

    But what about the end?

    Beidi County has been beaten like that. If it were another person, he would have been taken away from his position and his house confiscated by now. But what happened to Zhou Yafu in the end?

    He was actually thrown directly and quietly by the emperor to Xiliu Camp to train troops. From this incident, many people could already tell that Zhou Yafu was someone the emperor wanted to use.

    As the first person to recommend Zhou Yafu, Shen Tujia really had mixed feelings in his heart.

    He has been the prime minister of the Han Dynasty for so many years, but until now, the emperor has continued to favor him openly.

    "But the emperor has some favors for him. If outsiders can't see this kind of thing, how can he not understand it himself?"

    It¡¯s just that many times, he chooses to deceive himself and others.

    However, after thinking about this, Shen Tujia suddenly felt that this matter could actually be an opportunity for him.

    This matter has reached this point, and it is already obvious how to deal with it.

    The final result is nothing more than one, give Liu Xian a favor, and then give the prince some painless punishment.

    In the end, this matter was settled. Judging from the emperor's health, His Highness the Crown Prince will still ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in another three to five years at most. Changing the Crown Prince in the Kingdom of Wu may not necessarily be a good thing for the court.  A bad thing.

    After all, King Wu Liu Bi is already old, and among his sons, except Liu Xian, who is still pretty good, the rest are allA person with high vision and low hand.

    Among the princes and kings of the Han Dynasty, there is Liu Deng, the acting king, and Liu Wu, the king of Liang, which is enough!

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It would be better for each of the remaining princes to be a little mediocre. If every one of them had great talents and great ideas, the world would really be in great danger!

    Over the years, the Kingdom of Wu has gradually become more powerful. Now, the crown prince of the Kingdom of Wu dies, and the position of a crown prince is suddenly vacated. The opportunity for the remaining princes of the Kingdom of Wu will not come all at once.  Yet?

    ?????????????????????????????????? When they are fighting for it one by one and grabbing a lively moment, maybe it will give the court a breakthrough to open up the situation!

    "Veteran Shen Tujia, see your Majesty!"

    "Prime Minister, please get up quickly. I heard that the Prime Minister is ill. Is this the case?"

    Seeing Shentujia coming, Liu Heng quickly stood up and came to Shentujia's side, patted his shoulder and then said this.

    "Your Majesty is worried. My illness is actually 30% true and 70% false! It's really because people have been coming to my door recently, but I can't shirk it. I have no choice but to take this step. It's better to let  Your Majesty is laughing!"

    Since he has made up his mind to support the emperor, Shen Tujia must now find ways to get closer to the emperor.

    Smiling is actually the most contagious expression!

    Seeing the self-deprecating smile on Shen Tujia¡¯s face, the emperor couldn¡¯t help but smile.

    ¡°People say it¡¯s difficult to be a householder if you¡¯re neither deaf nor mute. This applies to a small family, let alone you, the prime minister!¡±

    "Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. There is really nothing I can do about it. If I don't pretend to be sick, I'm afraid Chen will really be sick"

    Seeing that the emperor was joking with him, Shen Tujia of course wanted to continue.

    "Hahahaha, then I can't control it, but Prime Minister, you have to take care of yourself. If you get sick, who can you leave to the affairs of the court?"

    Seeing Liu Heng change the topic and turn the matter to the court, Shen Tujia suddenly understood in his heart that it seemed that the topic was about to come.

    "I must apologize to His Majesty for the matter concerning His Royal Highness"

    Since there was no way to escape this matter today, Shen Tujia simply rose to the challenge and brought the topic up on his own initiative.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
