The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 510: The Pillar That Cannot Be Avoided

Hussar General's Mansion.

A majestic figure stood on the shooting range, holding his breath, concentrating, drawing his bow and arrow. Soon a meteor streaked across the sky and hit the target fifty steps away!

The person with the highest title in the Han Dynasty today——

Duke of Yong, Liu Wansheng!
After he grew strong, Liu Wansheng lived in the home of his adoptive father Lu Bu, and for a time he became a legendary figure in Chang'an.

Just as Liu Wansheng was about to continue practicing archery, a voice came from the side: "Okay!"

"Adoptive father?"

Liu Wansheng turned around happily and saw Lu Bu.

However, there was another person beside Lu Bu, which made Liu Wansheng restrain himself.

"I have met His Majesty!"

Who else could the handsome and noble young man next to him be but Liu Xie?
Liu Xie looked at Liu Wansheng's eyebrows and was also a little dazed.

"Like, very similar."

Liu Wansheng not only has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but also has an extremely strong physique. Now he is only ten years old, but his physique is no different from some seventeen or eighteen-year-old children!

When seeing Liu Wansheng, Liu Xie seemed to see the agile figure of the Grand Tutor when he was young and served as a Yulin Lang in the palace.

Liu Xie came to Liu Wansheng, took the bow and arrow from his hand, and pulled it with all his strength!
"Nice bow! Is it likely to have two stones of force?"

"Your Majesty, this is a two-and-a-half stone strong bow!"

Liu Xie was amazed again.

If he could pull a two-and-a-half stone strong bow at the age of ten, what could he do when he grows up?
Liu Wansheng will indeed be an outstanding military general in the future!
But Liu Xie still asked: "Now that the world is at peace, why do you still want to practice martial arts?"

Liu Wansheng was full of heroic spirit: "Of course it's to serve the country!"

"Sun Quan of Jiangdong, the countries in the Western Regions, and the mysterious Great Xia and Great Qin, aren't they all enemies lurking in the shadows of the Han Dynasty?"

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace. If you let your guard down during peacetime, it will be too late to prepare when war breaks out!"

Liu Xie looked at Liu Wansheng in surprise, then turned to look at Lu Bu: "Did Fengxian teach him?"

However, looking at Lu Bu's embarrassed expression, Liu Xie immediately knew that it was unlikely that such words would come from Lu Bu's mouth.

"What a good way to be prepared for danger in times of peace!"

Liu Xie praised Liu Wansheng again.

"It seems that Wansheng's ambition is to fight on the battlefield and become a veteran general?"

"Exactly!"

Liu Wansheng bowed to the emperor and said, "I still have a few years before I can hold the coming-of-age ceremony. I hope the emperor will allow me to become a palace soldier and fight for the country!"

Liu Xie nodded happily.

"Don't worry, I will personally perform your coming-of-age ceremony for you in the future."

When Liu Wansheng heard this, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Wansheng, if I remember correctly, in a few days, it will be your father's memorial day, right?"

"Exactly."

"Are you going to Jiuyi Mountain to worship?"

"Replying to the Emperor, this is an annual custom, and the Empress will also go."

When talking about Dong Bai, Liu Wansheng's face looked a little unnatural.

In terms of seniority, Queen Dong Bai of the Han Dynasty was actually Liu Wansheng's niece.

But when Liu Wansheng was a child, he was indeed raised by Dong Bai (Cai Yan), so he was very embarrassed about this younger generation who was usually noisy and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Just right."

Liu Xie nodded.

"When you return from Mount Jiuyi this time, ask your cousin Dong Huang to present me with an official document, asking me to commend the Grand Tutor for his achievements."

Although Liu Wansheng was precocious, he did not understand all the twists and turns and did not understand why the emperor made such arrangements.

But since it was the emperor's order, there was no reason to refuse, so Liu Wansheng agreed to it immediately. On the contrary, when Lu Bu, who had always been slow-witted, saw the emperor's words, he suddenly remembered the promise the emperor made to him in Linzi that day...

"Hiss! Your Majesty, are you going to..."

Liu Xie did not expect that Lu Bu would be able to react to this matter.

However, since Lu Bu had already seen it, Liu Xie had no need to hide it and nodded to him.

It turned out to be true!
Lu Bu was overjoyed and wanted to kowtow to thank the emperor, but was stopped by the emperor.

"No one can predict what will happen next."

"Even though I used the stories of Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing to convince that stubborn Wen Ruo a few days ago, this matter is of great importance after all and cannot be accomplished in a short period of time."

But this still couldn't suppress Lu Bu's excitement.

"Even Xun Lingjun has agreed, so there must be no problem!"

"Fengxian's thinking is too simple. Instead of letting your imagination run wild, you might as well take advantage of this period of time to read agricultural books and learn the art of governance."

Liu Xie shook his head.

Given the current situation, establishing a state requires an opportunity that is hard to come by.

Asking Dong Huang to write a letter was just to create some public opinion and slowly heat up the atmosphere.

To establish a state, one must have made great contributions.

Even though the Han Dynasty has reached this point today, in everyone's perception, Dong Zhuo is already the Grand Tutor who saved the country... It was precisely because of the Xiliang Army foundation he left behind that the Han Dynasty, which was like a duckweed floating on the water, was able to have a foundation stationed in Guanzhong.

Therefore, whenever it comes to the achievements of the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo will always be an indispensable pillar.

Including the establishment of a state.

If Dong Zhuo does not confer the title, no one else will ever have such an idea again.

Liu Wansheng was standing nearby at the moment, totally confused as to what the emperor and Lu Bu were talking about.

Liu Xie touched Liu Wansheng's abdomen.

Strong, but not soft.

"Wansheng, it's all right to want to be a general, but you still have to learn how to govern a country. Don't become a reckless man like your adoptive father."

"When you have nothing to do, go to Sima Zhongda and Zhuge Kongming and learn something. Otherwise, how can you be a vassal in the future?"

Just a feudal lord?

Liu Wansheng's pupils shrank.

No matter how ignorant he was, he knew what these two words meant!
Although his original surname was Liu and his relationship with the queen meant that his status and treatment were actually no different from those of the emperor's offspring.

But Liu Wansheng lost his father at a young age, so he was more sensitive in his heart. Therefore, he always paid attention to his words and actions and did not really regard himself as a son of the Liu family.

But the emperor actually said today... that he wanted him to become a vassal?

Liu Wansheng was extremely confused at this moment. He looked at Liu Xie with helpless eyes, as if he was trying to find words to refuse him.

"This is not a good thing, don't rush to refuse."

Establishing a state...

It sounds easy, but the hardships of starting from scratch are indeed there.

I'm afraid that the first batch of princes of the Han Dynasty will have an extremely hard time in the future.

That's why Liu Xie told Liu Wansheng not to be happy too early.

"But don't worry, Wansheng. I can't let you go out into the world empty-handed without any preparation for you."

"Now, what you need to do is to calm down, study hard, and research the ways of governing a country and discussing politics. Do you understand?"

Liu Wansheng's heart was pounding at this moment, but he was a hot-blooded young man after all, so he didn't want to be so roundabout and hypocritical.

Anyway, Liu Wansheng only knew one thing, that is, the emperor would never harm him!

In this case, Liu Wansheng did only one thing——

"I will definitely listen to your Majesty! I will do whatever your Majesty says!"
