The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

When the decree was issued, all the ministers wrote letters to congratulate him.

Even Buyeo and Goguryeo wrote letters to congratulate the Han Dynasty.

When Liu Xie saw the documents from the two countries, he called Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou together.

“What is the current situation between the two countries?”

"Your Majesty, now there is enough coal, and officials have taught us to farm and weave, which is different from before."

Xu Rong was originally from Xuantu County, Liaodong. Since he was appointed as the governor of Liaozhou, he has always used both kindness and severity.

Especially now that the imperial court controls coal, it holds the life and death of the two countries in its hands through trade, and has lost many treasures to both countries.

But as they said, even if the Han Dynasty has the upper hand in trade, it is also beneficial to both countries.

Coal can ensure that the number of people who die from freezing and frostbite in the two countries in winter is greatly reduced.

At the same time, because Xu Rong had extensively reclaimed wasteland in Liaozhou, some farming and textile technologies inevitably flowed into the two countries, helping them to improve their national strength.

"That's good, but that's not what I want to ask."

The development of Liaozhou by the Han Dynasty will inevitably drive the development of the two countries.

But Liu Xie said he didn't care whether the two countries developed.

He only cared about one thing—

"How is the education of Buyeo and Goguryeo going?"

Emperor Liu Xie had shown great kindness to the two countries during the last Liaodong Campaign.

The reason was that Liu Xie acknowledged that the two countries were actually descendants of the Xia Dynasty.

But it is useless for Liu Xie to say this alone.

At the very least, the two countries should demonstrate their sincerity.

Otherwise, Liu Xie would not leave this hidden danger to future generations, as he would be eating the Han Dynasty's food but wanting to smash the Han Dynasty's pot.

"Return to Your Majesty..."

This time, Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou were both a little hesitant.

"After all, the two countries are located in the deep mountains and old forests. The people are dull and probably cannot understand the profound meaning of the saints' words, so they are still using the two countries' languages..."

Since even the language used is Buyeo and Goguryeo, the promotion of Chinese characters is naturally nonsense.

Since you can't even use or write Chinese characters, how can you identify yourself as a descendant of the Chinese nation?

"Oh?"

Liu Xie just looked at the two of them quietly.

Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou bowed their heads to the ground. Although it was already the coldest time of the year, they were sweating profusely and did not dare to look up.

"I remember what I said - your people are all descendants of the Xia people."

"And now you are telling me that your people are stupid?"

"Are you cursing your countrymen, or are you cursing me?"

"Or do you two not take this matter to heart at all, and even think that you are not descendants of the Xia?"

The emperor's words were unusually gentle.

But to their ears, it seemed as heavy as a thousand pounds!

The Three Kingdoms of Han, and the Wa Kingdom which has now completely become the Yin Kingdom...

The people of Lushun could still smell the blood from the Jingguan from time to time. How could they dare to accept this?

"I dare not!"

The Han Dynasty's transformation of Japan into a vassal state of the Han Dynasty has just happened!

This incident made them understand that as long as the Han Dynasty wanted, the emperor could completely replace the marquisates of their two countries with Han people!
They are not Himiko.

Even without worldly rights, one can still maintain his status by relying on divine authority.

Once the emperor speaks, the Han Dynasty does not need to take any action. In their respective countries, ambitious people will wield their butcher knives to chop off their heads and send them to the emperor. At the same time, they will transform themselves into the most loyal vassal states of the Han Dynasty!

At this moment, both of them were extremely frightened and they wanted to take out a scimitar, cut open their hearts and show them to the emperor, so that the emperor could see their sincerity and fear.

"After we return to our country, we will immediately abolish the language and ask the Han scholars to teach the classics!"

Although Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou's reactions were intense, they did dispel Liu Xie's concerns.

But it's just a concern.

Some means should be retained.

"Since you say this is a difficult task, I will send you a teacher."

The two were puzzled.

Liu Xie pointed at Liu Qi behind him——

"Boqiong is one of the three highest officials in the world today, and he is also the eldest son of my uncle Liu Biao."

The two of them quickly greeted Liu Qi.

"Zong Bo is a famous scholar in the country, and he is well versed in the study of heaven and man."

"Although Bo Qiong is not as good as Zong Bo, he still has about 30% to 50% of Zong Bo's abilities."

"How about this, we set up a Liu clan state between your two countries and let Bo Qiong stay there to teach the people of your two countries?"

"Ok?"

"what?"

"This……"

Not to mention Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou, even Liu Qi didn't react in a short time!
Son of Heaven...is he going to enthrone the fourth prince of the Han Dynasty?
In fact, after Lu Bu was named Duke of Yin and established the Yin Kingdom, the ministers began to discuss who would be the fourth prince of the Han Dynasty.

Should he continue to be "partial" to the end and enfeoff Niu Fu, the General of Chariots and Cavalry, or people like Zhong Yao and Xun You who have made great contributions to the emperor, or pillars of the country like Xu Rong and Gao Shun?

No one expected that, in a sudden turn of events, the emperor would actually choose Liu Biao as the fourth person to be enfeoffed?

However, although this incident was unexpected, it also seemed to be reasonable.

In terms of closeness, Liu Biao's position as the governor of Jingzhou was appointed by Dong Zhuo alone! He was the only one among the princes in Guandong who was close to the imperial court!

On merit.

Don't talk about trade.

The fact that Liu Biao presented Jingzhou to the imperial court was already a great achievement!
Even if Liu Biao's identity was not special, this incident alone would have been enough to make him a pillar of the country!
On status.

Liu Biao once led the student movement against the Party and was listed as one of the "Eight Cooks". Now he is one of the Three Dukes of the Han Dynasty, the president of Taibai Academy, and the leader of the new school of Lunheng!
On bloodline.

Liu Biao is a descendant of the Han Dynasty with family tree records, and he is of the Liu bloodline!
A man like Liu Biao should have been a vassal even if the emperor did not grant fiefs. Moreover, now that the vassal states are being granted fiefs, how could Liu Biao not be included?
Rather than saying that the enfeoffment of Liu Biao was somewhat unexpected, it would be better to say that the enfeoffment of Liu Biao was actually a bit late!
Liu Qi's eyes were red and swollen at this moment, and his face was flushed. How could he look like a patient at all?

As for Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou, they felt a sinking feeling in their hearts!
Anyone can see that the emperor is trying to drive a nail between the two countries!
A prince named Liu lived in the Northeast and was born to occupy a righteous position!

As long as the Liu clan vassal state exists and works together with the now thriving Liaozhou, it is only a matter of time before Buyeo and Goguryeo are completely sinicized!
This is no longer an open conspiracy!

Because when the Emperor of the Han Dynasty faced them, he didn't need to "plan" at all!
same.

They had no reason or confidence to refuse in front of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

The two of them immediately saluted Liu Qi.

No one knows what they are thinking in their hearts.

But at least on the surface, their attitude towards Liu Qi, a member of the royal family and the eldest son of one of the three highest officials, was exceptionally docile!

"Boqiong, come here, I have something to tell you."

Liu Qi stepped forward respectfully and listened to the instruction with lowered brows.

"You are weak, but the ginseng grown in the deep mountains and old forests of Northeast China is a good thing. You can take it to try to regulate your health."

"Here."

When Liu Qi heard that the first thing the emperor was concerned about was his health, he was even more grateful.

The emperor asked again, "Does Boqiong have any offspring?"

Upon hearing this question, Liu Qi's face, which had been rosy just now, suddenly turned pale.

"Your Majesty, I am weak, so I have no children..."

Liu Qi was extremely confused at this moment!

For the first time, he felt how useless he was!
It has become a tradition to abolish a country if one has no children.

Liu Qi couldn't help feeling panicky at the thought that Liu Biao's fiefdom might be abolished in the future.

The emperor was silent after getting the answer.

But soon the emperor asked again: "How is your relationship with your brother Liu Cong?"

Hearing this question, Liu Qi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brothers are as close as brothers, so there is naturally no barrier between them."

"Don't lie to me. Am I so easy to fool?"

Liu Xie glared at Liu Qi.

"Liu Cong's mother is from the Cai family, a prominent family in Jingzhou! When your father was the governor of Jingzhou, Cai must have made things difficult for you in order to let her son inherit the position of Zongbo, right?"

Liu Qi's eyes revealed a complicated look, but he still smiled faintly: "Maybe? But now that I'm older, I've almost forgotten all of this."

I almost forgot about it...

Liu Xie also sighed.

"You really take after your father. You don't fight for anything."

"Fortunately, it's not a chaotic time now, so you don't need to fight for anything."

"You should go to the feudal state to recuperate first. If you can give birth to a child, that would be the best... If you really can't, write me a letter and I will transfer your brother to the feudal state and will not do anything to expel the country."

After hearing this, Liu Qi straightened his body, adjusted his demeanor, and thanked the emperor again!

The emperor turned his attention to Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou——

"Didn't your country lose a lot of young men in the last battle?"

"It was all because of our ignorance back then..."

The emperor waved his hand, interrupting the two's explanation.

"Since so many young and strong men have died, there must be a large number of widows?"

"some……"

The two didn't understand why the emperor asked this question, but they still responded obediently.

"In that case, marry those widows to men so that they can have someone to rely on."

The "men" here obviously refer specifically to "Han men".

Liu Xie learned this trick from Cao Cao.

After Cao Cao had turned the world upside down in those countries in the Western Regions, he reduced the men in those countries to slaves and gave the women as rewards to Han soldiers...

This combination of "married woman" and "green bull" is indeed Cao Cao's style...

Moreover, Liu Xie immediately realized the benefits of such a distribution after doing some calculations in his mind.

So today, I brought up this matter in front of Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou.

When Jian Weiju and Gao Yanyou heard this, their scalps really tingled.

But even so, they still didn't dare to say a word of "no".

"Your Majesty is truly kind and righteous!"

"Well, then try to do it as soon as possible."

When everyone left and Liu Xie was about to fall asleep, a palace servant suddenly came to report -

"Your Majesty, Lady Yu from Goguryeo requests to see you."

Why are you knocking on my door in the middle of the night?
Liu Xie naturally knew who Yu was and his character.

But isn't it a bit too much for her to be so presumptuous? (End of this chapter)
