Chapter 041 The Young Master is Ecstatic
As soon as Liu Chang arrived at Tianlu Pavilion, all the princes who were studying looked at him and laughed. Some shouted, "Brother ! You have a new scar on your butt!"
He did not answer, but sat down at his desk, took out his textbook, and asked his attendant for pen and ink.
They deliberately shouted loudly: "I heard that you stole a little girl's snack!"
Liu Chang opened his eyes wide, "How dare you defame someone's innocence like this..."
"What innocence? My friend saw you snatching someone's snacks the day before yesterday, and you were hung up and beaten by your mother!"
Liu Chang's face turned red, veins popped out on his forehead, and he argued, "How can that be considered robbery? I just wanted to ask where she bought it from... can it be considered robbery?" Then he said even more difficult to understand words, such as "must be killed" and "gentleman's revenge", which made everyone laugh, and the Tianlu Pavilion inside and outside was filled with a happy atmosphere.
Liu Chang is the meme-making machine in the palace. In this silent, serious palace where everyone has a stern face, only Liu Chang can bring happiness to everyone. Most of the funny things in the palace that can make everyone laugh are made by Liu Chang.
For example, Liu Chang ran around in the palace and was hit on the head by the Imperial Censor. Then the Imperial Censor proposed to set a set of etiquette in the palace, including not walking fast and not bumping into the Imperial Censor. Another example is that Liu Chang stole a snack from a little girl, but she turned out to be the daughter of Marquis Wuyang, so he was hung up and beaten by Empress Lü...
In an extremely depressing atmosphere where even breathing is difficult, it is a pleasure to have such a lively person.
Everything else was fine, but the incident of snatching snacks really nailed Liu Chang to the rack of shame.
Liu Chang sometimes wondered how he would be recorded in history books.
If future generations read in history books that Liu Bang had a son who openly snatched snacks from little girls in the palace, would they burst into laughter, or would they spit and call him a scumbag?
Liu Chang felt that he had to do something so that he could not be nailed to the shame rack of history forever and be despised by future generations.
Among all the people who laughed at him, Ruyi laughed the hardest, which further escalated the hatred between the two. However, due to his age and eloquence, Liu Chang was the one who suffered the most. There was one time when he confidently got a big centipede and placed it at Liu Ruyi's feet, trying to scare him.
Liu Ruyi was not afraid but delighted. He drew out his sword and cut the centipede in half. Then he boasted shamelessly, "I have finally achieved the same success as my father!"
Bah, are you worthy?
How come you can brag better than me?
Anyway, most of Liu Bang's children like to brag, even the honest Liu Hui is no exception. Sometimes, when the brothers get together to brag , the fourth brother always brags about his future ruling strategy. According to him, it seems that if he goes to a certain vassal state, he can make that vassal state richer than Qi.
Not to mention Ruyi, he always boasts that he will be like his father and will always be able to achieve unprecedented fame.
Liu Hui would occasionally brag about his popularity, boasting that he knew almost all the attendants in the palace and had a good relationship with them.
In this regard, Liu Chang just thought that they were shameless. He was better off because he had always been realistic and had not been infected by his father's boastful temper.
Liu Ying was the same. Although he always talked about his shortcomings in various aspects and never talked about his strengths, the problem was that he always compared himself with some ceiling-level people. He was just short of saying that "I am not as good as Xiao He in governing the country, not as good as Han Xin in fighting a war, and not as good as Zhang Liang in strategy." Can you look in the mirror before comparing yourself with those people?
Liu Chang felt that each of his descendants seemed to have inherited one of Liu Bang's strengths. The eldest brother inherited gentleness, the second brother inherited kindness, Ruyi inherited evil, the fourth brother inherited benevolence, the fifth brother inherited warmth, and the sixth brother inherited... low-key? The eighth brother couldn't tell yet. If anything, his crying voice sounded a lot like his father's singing.
As for myself, I have inherited basically all the advantages. I act gently, am kind-hearted, a righteous gentleman, gentle and respectful, and keep a low profile. Wow, I'm perfect.
"You said not long ago that you wanted to learn martial arts from Marquis Wuyang... but you bullied Marquis Wuyang's daughter... I think you should consider finding a new teacher."
"What? The ghost who complained is Fan Kuai's daughter?"
"Oh my god...you don't even know this?? Read more books...okay?"
Liu Chang was a little confused. Thinking about Fan Kuai's height, he suddenly felt a little timid. He looked at Liu Heng beside him and asked, "Fourth brother, can I ask you something?"
"you say."
"If Marquis Wuyang wants to beat me, will my father stop him?"
"Well... do you want to hear the truth?"
"Uh-huh."
"Be nice to that little girl... If father knew, he would call Marquis Wuyang to beat you up..."
Even though he was extremely reluctant, Liu Chang still reluctantly changed his attitude towards the little girl. Since that day, the girl often came to stroll around the palace, under the pretext of visiting her aunt, but actually just to show off in front of Liu Chang. Every day she brought different snacks and ate them in front of him with a proud look on her face, and also acted coquettishly to her mother from time to time.
Mother was also deceived by this little girl. She held her in her arms and coaxed her all day long, hugging and kissing her, completely leaving Liu Chang aside.
Liu Chang sat aside with a look of indignation, squinting his eyes and looking at her.
"Do you want to eat? I've asked you before. I'm older than you. If you call me sister, I'll give you food."
"Okay, then give it to me, and I'll scream after I eat it."
Fan Qing squatted obediently beside Liu Chang, watching him eat snacks slowly and expectantly.
Liu Chang finished eating quickly.
"Okay, now that we're done, call me."
"What's your name?"
"Call me sister!"
"Why?"
"You just promised me!"
"Really? How come I don't know? Did you give me food? Do you have any evidence?"
“Wow~~~~”
… …
Empress Lu suddenly had to go on a long journey.
Liu Ying came to the Pepper Room in person.
"Mother, the journey is long, and there are wars everywhere. Please let me go with you."
Empress Lü glanced at Liu Ying, smiled disdainfully, and asked, "Did the Fourth Elder ask you to say this?"
"yes."
Empress Lü frowned and scolded, "As a crown prince, have you learned all this from them? The people of the Three Kingdoms are suffering from war, shouldn't you do something? Are you the crown prince of the whole world? Or the crown prince of me alone?! Do you think being an emperor means learning to be a saint?"
"If you can do something that benefits the country and the people, I won't blame you even if you never come to see me again. But if you can't do anything good and just hang around me all day asking about my well-being, I won't value you at all!"
"You are the prince! Go and do what a prince should do!"
The prince lowered his head helplessly after being scolded by Empress Lu for no reason.
He wanted to do it, but there was Empress Lü to take care of domestic affairs and Xiao He to take care of local affairs. What could he do?
Empress Lü sighed and said, "I will be away this time, and I will leave the affairs of the country to you."
Liu Ying's eyes lit up and he asked, "Can I make my own decision?"
Empress Lü became even angrier, "Is there someone else tying your hands and feet?"
Liu Chang sat on the sidelines and laughed secretly. Empress Lu glared at him fiercely and scolded: "The prince doesn't look like a prince, and the prince doesn't look like a prince!"
"Why is it that every time my elder brother makes my mother angry, she scolds me?"
Empress Lü scolded her two sons severely, and then quickly told Liu Ying what to do. "There are many people who have fled because of the war. These people have no food and need clothes. You have to find a way to comfort them... In Chu, Jing, Qi and other areas, although there are no people fleeing, the young people have gone to the battlefield. You have to find a way... Otherwise, there will be a big problem if the grain production decreases next year..."
Liu Chang also listened carefully. In fact, although Amu looked fierce, she had a good heart. In the Pepper Room, he often saw Amu worrying about the situation in various places. Although she was a little strict, she was really doing things. Unlike some people, who only knew how to drink and sing every day, he had never been seen worrying about anything.
Of course, it may also be because I don’t see him very often. Every time I see him, it is at a banquet, so I can only see him drinking and singing.
After explaining these things, Empress Lü prepared to leave.
Liu Chang's face was filled with smiles. "Ah Mu is gone! Great!"
Now, no one in the Pepper Palace can control me. My spring has come. I can make as much trouble as I want and bully whoever I want. Ruyi, right? Fan Qing, right? Hahaha, just wait!
Just when Liu Chang was ecstatic, Empress Lu seemed to notice his appearance.
"Always follow me."
