Han Dao world

Even if you don't make mistakes today, you will inevitably make mistakes in the future.

"Whether the kingly way can be realized does not depend on those old officials. Most of them will not live to that time." Xun You said with a soft smile: "Whether Situ can govern the people may depend on whether uncle can seize the opportunity. As for Mrs. Commander-in-Chief, with all due respect, right now there is no one who can take on this important task, let's wait and see the future."

After finishing speaking, Xun You cupped his hands. "Uncle, it's getting late. Get in the car and go back early to rest. If you go out for a day, there must be a pile of official documents waiting for you."

While savoring Xun You's words, Xun Yu got into the car and bid farewell to Xun You.

With the sound of hooves and the tinkling of the bell, the carriage galloped along the official road towards Anyi City.

-

When Xun Yu returned to Anyi, the city gate was already closed, and it took Xun Yu a little effort to get the soldiers on the city to confirm that he was the new prefect.

The city gate opened a crack, and Xun Yu's carriage entered the city, heading straight for the prefect's mansion.

Back in the mansion, Xun Yu had just sat down and was asking if there was anything to be done, when Sikong and Zhang Xi rushed over.

Everything was done in the first place, and in order to facilitate the handling of official affairs, all the ministers and ministers in the city lived in the prefect's mansion.

Xun Yu hurriedly got up to greet him. "Mr. Zhang, how dare I bother you. If there is something to do, let someone tell you."

Zhang Xi waved his hands again and again. "Wen Ruo, keep quiet, keep quiet, don't wake Situ up. He is old and his head is shallow, so he will wake up when there is any movement."

Xun Yu glanced at Zhang Xi with a smile, without saying anything, turned around and let Zhang Xi into the bedroom on the side.

In terms of age, Zhang Xi is not much younger than Zhao Wen.

The two sat down and chatted for a while, then Zhang Xi got straight to the point and asked about Xun Yu's visit to Shi Sun Rui.

Xun Yu was outspoken. "The emperor is very angry."

"Yes, yes." Zhang Xi rubbed his hands. "Scholar Sun Junrong has always been cautious, but this time he did not do it properly. I am afraid that he was influenced by Wei Bojun and Ju Yuanying. Whether it is from Guanzhong or Hebei, there is more than heroic, but not honest enough. Wen Ruo, please persuade me Advise the Son of Heaven, he trusts you."

Xun Yu didn't say a word.

He understood Zhang Xi's meaning, this was a senior's ardent hope for him.

Ru Ying is one, Zhang Xi certainly hoped that he could get the important task of the emperor, and it would be best to replace Zhao Wen and become the leader of the Ru Ying people in the court.

But he also knows that the emperor may have high expectations of him, but not necessarily trust.

Especially after this incident.

Xun Yu lost his mind for a while, and suddenly said: "Mr. Zhang, who do you think the emperor trusts the most?"

Zhang Xi was a little dazed, and said to himself: "I can't explain clearly. It should be Yang Wenxian before, but it's hard to say when something like this happened." He suddenly clapped his hands. "By the way, Cai Zhaoji, hasn't she been with the emperor all the time, writing daily notes?"

Xun Yu felt that it was reasonable, but he still couldn't finish it. "Anymore?"

Zhang Xi sighed. "Wen Ruo, let me tell you, the Son of Heaven has suffered a lot these years, and it is difficult to trust people. If something like this happens again, no one will believe it. If you want me to say, this scholar Sun Junrong is not worthy Da Ren, count on him to lead the army as a Taiwei..."

Xun Yu glanced at Zhang Xi subconsciously, remembering what Xun You said.

Zhang Xi thought that Xun Yu had other meanings, so he closed his mouth embarrassingly.

As a minister, it is really wrong to criticize colleagues behind their backs.If he hadn't placed high hopes on Xun Yu as a young man from the countryside, he wouldn't have come to talk about these gossips in the middle of the night.

Zhang Xi consciously made a slip of the tongue, but Xun Yu was restless, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Just when Zhang Xi wanted to leave, Xun Yu suddenly said, "I see."

"What do you know?" Zhang Xi was taken aback for a moment, but then came back to his senses. "Who are you talking about?"

"Mrs. Hongnong Wang."

Zhang Xi thought for a while, nodded his head in agreement, and then said: "But...they are sister-in-law and uncle, so it's not suitable for them to meet often, right?"

Xun Yu shook his head. "The elder brother is like a father, and the elder sister-in-law is like a mother. The emperor lost both his parents and his elder brother, and now only Mrs. Hongnong Wang is close to him. In times of mourning, the overall situation should be the most important thing, how can you stick to the customs Mr. Zhang, what do you think?"

Zhang Xi looked at Xun Yu with a strange look in his eyes.

He felt that the Xun Yu in front of him was a little different from the Xun Yu in his impression.

Not only was Mrs. Hongnong Wang's suggestion to persuade the emperor, but the fact that Xun Yu took over as the governor of Hedong was quite surprising.

With the talent of Wang Zuo and the prestige of the leader of the younger generation of Ruying celebrities, shouldn't Xun Yu directly become the emperor's confidant and his right and left ministers? How could he become the prefect of a county and run back and forth so contentedly.

What is he thinking?

Chapter 212 Killing two birds with one stone

"Madame Hongnong?" Zhao Wen stroked his beard with a stunned expression.

Zhang Xi buried his head in the porridge and pretended not to hear.

He felt that this idea was unreliable last night, and advised Xun Yu not to mention it to Zhao Wen, but Xun Yu was stubborn and brought it up while they were having breakfast together.Sure enough, Zhao Wen laughed.

Xun Yu explained patiently: "After the chaos, the nannies and palace people who were familiar with the rules of the palace were all lost. The empress is young, and she doesn't know much about government affairs and court affairs. Now the one who can win the trust of the emperor and persuade the emperor is Mrs. Hongnong Wang is gone. Wei Wei will undertake the task of attacking Fan Xian, so the emperor can’t stay outside the city forever, it’s better to ask Mrs. Hongnong Wang to come forward and persuade the emperor to return to the city as soon as possible.”

Zhao Wen smacked his teeth.

As I get older, my teeth are thinner, and the shredded meat gets stuck between the teeth, which is a bit uncomfortable.

The emperor was angry and refused to return to the city, which is really inappropriate.

But it's also inappropriate for Mrs. Hongnong Wang to persuade her.

Not to mention the relationship between uncle and sister-in-law, it is not appropriate to be too close, admonishing the emperor should be a minister's business, how can a woman do it for her.

This matter is all due to Shi Sun Rui's improper behavior, which made the emperor have opinions on all the ministers, and the more he persuaded, the more twisted he was.

The Taiwei Yang Biao, who is most trusted by the emperor, has hit a wall, and the others are probably useless.Strong remonstrance can only show that they have done their duty, but it cannot solve practical problems, and if not done well, it will intensify conflicts.

"Follow the power in a hurry, don't take it as an example." Zhao Wen accepted Xun Yu's suggestion after careful consideration.

Xun Yu nodded.

Zhang Xi, who was drinking porridge, was slightly stunned, then sighed, and continued to drink porridge.

-

When Tang Ji arrived outside the city, Liu Xie had already gone hunting with a group of officials.

Cai Yan said that the Son of Heaven may not come back until after dark, if it is urgent, why don't we go find him.

Tang Ji thought it was feasible, so she invited Cai Yan to take a car together and go out to find the emperor.

However, Cai Yan said that the hunting place is a shallow slope, and riding a horse is not as good as riding a car.

Tang Ji is not a reserved person either, so she readily agreed.

Cai Yan asked Queen Fushou for instructions.Fu Shou was also bored in the camp, and when he heard that Tang Ji was coming, he was very quiet, so he, together with Tang Ji and Cai Yan, changed into Hu clothes, mounted a horse, and left the camp.

It's deep winter, the world outside the camp is sparse, the grass is dead and the trees are slender, and the snow on the top of the distant mountains is faintly visible, which has a sense of desolation.

Thinking of the purpose of coming, Tang Ji couldn't help sighing.

Not knowing why Tang Ji came, Fu Shou, who was full of suspicion, asked, "Why is sister-in-law sighing? Could it be that you have encountered difficulties?"

Tang Ji looked at Fushou with envy.

Even in such troubled times, Fushou is still accompanied by his father and brother, and everything will be fine if he takes good care of the emperor, without having to think about so many external affairs.The emperor has encountered so many troubles, and she doesn't have to worry at all.

"The empress doesn't know something. The emperor stays outside the city and doesn't return. The officials in the city are restless. If I can't persuade the emperor to return to the city, I'm afraid they will all come to remonstrate tomorrow."

Fu Shou was at a loss. "The Son of Heaven is here to raid the formation for Wei Wei. How can the Son of Heaven return to the city before Wei Wei wins?"

Cai Yan and Tang Ji looked at each other and smiled wryly.

"Queen, the Wei family has already asked to surrender. Wei Wei has moved to Fan's Manor and is planning an attack. The emperor no longer needs to raid the formation."

Cai Yan briefly explained the whole matter.Only then did Fu Shou realize that his mood was a bit complicated.

No wonder the emperor has been hunting for the past two days, because he was bullied by the ministers.

Originally thought that if Li Jue was repelled, the emperor would become the real emperor.Now it seems that it is still too naive.

-

Liu Xie rode his horse galloped, drew his bow and shot.

The feather arrow galloped away, but missed.

The little leopard jumped into the grass and disappeared.

"Get around and grab it!" Liu Xie shouted angrily.

"Wei." Several Lang officials responded, kicked their horses lightly, and outflanked them from different directions.

"Your Majesty, look, it seems to be Her Royal Highness the Queen." Wang Yue pointed.

Liu Xie turned his head to look, and was also a little surprised.

Among the people who came were not only Queen Fushou, but also Lingshi Caiyan.

What surprised him even more was his sister-in-law Tang Ji.

Tang Ji should be in the city, why did she come here?

Liu Xie turned his horse's head and walked towards the official road.

Although the three of them are riding horses, they may not be able to adapt to this undeveloped wild hillside. If the horse is startled, it will be troublesome.

The three of Fu Shou came before them, dismounted and saluted.

Liu Xie also got off the horse and had a few pleasantries.Tang Ji didn't hide it either, and explained her intentions straight to the point, and persuaded Liu Xie to return to the city.

Knowing that it was Xun Yu's suggestion, Liu Xie was relieved.

This idea is really not something that old stubborn Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi can come up with.

"What are you doing back in the city, listening to their gossip every day?" Liu Xie disagreed.

He lingered outside the city not to return, not only because of anger—it can even be said that anger is just a gesture—but for military training.

Since he wants to be an emperor on horseback and intends to pacify the frontiers, he must have the ability to fight with cavalry, archery and cavalry when fighting the Huns, Wuhuan, and Xianbei.Training soldiers in the form of hunting is the best choice.

After a few days of practice, he has already glimpsed the door, and it is a good opportunity to go to the next level, so he is not willing to return to the city.

As for fighting against ministers, he actually didn't take it too seriously.

The foundation of power is violence, and as far as the court is concerned, it is military power.

Shi Sunrui wanted the Taiwei to hold the military power wholeheartedly. He couldn't be wrong, but the structure was too small.

Even if he now promises to promote Sun Rui to the rank of Taiwei and let him take charge of the military power, will Shi Sun Rui really be able to control the military power?

Maybe there is nothing wrong with the tens of thousands of soldiers in front of him, but once he confronts Yuan Shao head-on, what chance does he have of winning?

If you can't defeat Yuan Shao, it's a joke for the Taiwei to be in charge of the army.

As for the expedition to Mobei, it is even more unrealistic.

Shi Sun Rui was over half a century old, and his battlefield experience was limited to a few battles against the Xiliang people, and he knew little about real cavalry combat.It is an unrealistic luxury to let him eat and sleep in the open, and lead his troops to rush for thousands of miles.

Even Li Guang, who is known as a flying general, is not up to the task, and Sun Rui, who is essentially a scholar, is not even worth considering when he is run over by the wheels of the era.

If Shi Sun Rui can understand current affairs, he doesn't mind letting Shi Sun Rui serve as a captain, in charge of military affairs such as military training and logistics.If Shi Sunrui is ignorant of current affairs and still wants to take charge of the military power, just wait to bring shame on himself.

To snub Yang Biao, in addition to expressing a warning, it is more to stimulate Xun Yu and guide him to change in the direction he expected.

For those veterans, he has no hope.

"Your Majesty won't go back to the city, but have you been living in the big camp outside the city?" Cai Yan chimed in. "This is not a long-term solution after all."

"Cai Lingshi, if you can't bear this hardship, you should tell me earlier so that I can arrange someone else." Liu Xie said with a smile: "I dare not say it if it is far away. At least for the next ten years, I will spend most of the time living in the house." In the barracks. In the future, they may go to the grasslands, even thousands of miles away."

Cai Yan and Tang Ji looked at each other, they already understood what the emperor meant, and it was definitely impossible to persuade him to return to the city.

Fu Shou frowned slightly, feeling uneasy.

She can still bear the military camp outside Anyi City.How could she bear the grassland thousands of miles away?

At this time, Tiger Ben came to report.

"Your Majesty, Shaofu Tian Fen and Xiongnu Shanyu Huchuquan are asking to see you."

Chapter 213

Liu Xie glanced into the distance, and then said to Tang Ji: "Sister-in-law, have you ever found a suitable candidate for what you said last time?"

Tang Ji said: "I found seventeen of them. According to the method His Majesty said, I roughly pieced them together and they should be able to make them. Song Guiren and Dong Guiren are leading people to choose a site. If everything goes well, we can start work after the new year."

Fu Shou was confused, looked at Tang Ji, then at Liu Xie.
