Han Dao world

Most of the people around Liu He came from poor families, some were even common people, and they became masters by virtue of martial arts.These people have limited losses and are not so exclusive.

"If I tell you that after Du Tian, ​​even a wealthy family, as long as they are flexible and put in the effort, their income will not decrease, but will increase substantially, would you believe it?"

Tian Chou froze for a moment, then suddenly realized. "Agriculture is not as good as work, and work is not as good as business?"

Liu He nodded, picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly.

"No farming is unstable, and the imperial court saves the land to ensure people's food and clothing and avoid chaos. Only when everyone does not have to worry about hunger, can the world be peaceful. Only when the world is peaceful, can business have opportunities. The imperial court only opposes mergers, but does not boycott business. Where is competing for profit with the people? It is clearly for the benefit of the people. Those people keep small gains and abandon big gains, like hugging trees and abandoning forests, guarding wells and abandoning the sea, it is simply ridiculous.”

Chapter 790

Tian Chou was stunned, and then asked again: "Even so, Du Tian will not escape the notoriety. Today Du Tian, ​​how do you know that there will be no order to sue in the future?"

Liu He laughed loudly and pointed at Tian Chou with his chopsticks. "Zitai, you are giving up food because of choking. It is not advisable. Not to mention the new policy of the emperor, it is intended to benefit the people, not to compete with the people. As far as the order of suing is concerned, there are also disadvantages. If you think about it carefully, at that time If you don’t sue the order and let the great merchants buy the land, can you still wait a hundred years before being usurped by Wang Mang? I’m afraid the big man has already collapsed like Qin.”

Tian Chou waved his hand. "Don't gossip about him, even if saving the fields and calling the police can solve the emergency, after all, drinking poison to quench thirst is definitely not a kingly way."

"The king's way is not something that can be realized by just shouting a few words of morality, benevolence and righteousness. As the master of Lu, he also wants to punish Shaozhengmao and go to Sanhuan." Liu He said quietly: "If someone really thinks that the emperor is young and can be bullied, forcing the emperor It's too late to regret if you use the thunderbolt method."

Tian Chou smiled bitterly: "Gongheng, you really have changed. I really didn't expect you to have such a radical idea."

"This is not my own opinion. Most of the soldiers in the army think so." Liu He picked up his wine glass and said, "Zitai, the times have changed. You must not stick to the story. Looking at the past from the present is like looking at Lu from the Han. Speaking in equal measure, the Confucian school will not be able to take on the heavy responsibility if it is not reborn."

After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it down.

Tian Chou nodded thoughtfully.

-

At the court meeting the next day, Liu Xie conveyed relevant news to the ministers and ministers attending the meeting.

Like Tian Chou and Liu He, the ministers of the public and ministers all believed that the emperor's personal conquest was the most appropriate.Although Yuan Shao is not the judge and matchmaker, Jizhou has a very important meaning, even if it is a trip, it is necessary.

This is determined by the special status of Jizhou.

Among the thirteen prefectures in the world, Jizhou does not have the most household registration, but it is famous for its flat terrain and rich products.

Going far, Zhao Guo has the most hope of competing with Qin in riding and shooting in Hufu.The Battle of Changping decided not only the fate of Zhao, but also the fate of the six countries.

More recently, the Battle of Julu was a turning point in the struggle between Qin and Chu, Guangwu started in Hebei, and even the center of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was in Jizhou.

If it weren't for the emperor's reform and improvement, Yuan Shao might once again prove the value of Jizhou.

With this understanding, the emperor should conquer Yecheng himself instead of appointing generals.

The first emperor came from Hejian, and the empress Lingsi came from Zhao State. This is the fate between the emperor and Jizhou, which cannot be let down.

Looking at Liu He who was talking eloquently, Liu Xie suddenly remembered something.

Liu He is the descendant of Liu Qiang, King Gong of the East China Sea. Liu Qiang was the eldest son of Emperor Guangwu.

In a sense, their lineage is the victim of the conflict between the imperial court and the Jizhou lineage, and they must also empathize with the obsession of the Jizhou people.

The flow of trial and match must be calmed down, but the obsession of Jizhou people must also be resolved, otherwise there will be troubles in the future.

Liu Xie discussed with the ministers, and finally decided to conquer Jizhou himself.

Shandong's troops are sufficient, and there is no need to transfer troops from Guanzhong. He only needs to bring the forbidden troops such as Huben and Habayashi.The infantry and archery battalions are in Taiyuan, and they can be grouped outside of Yecheng.

On the whole, the opinions were unified, but there were some differences on how to deal with Yuan Shu.

Some people think that Yuan Shu has meritorious service, and he took down Yuan Shao in one fell swoop, creating an opportunity for the pacification of Jizhou.

Some people think that Yuan Shu sent troops without authorization and crossed the border to attack Jizhou. Although he made meritorious service, he violated the imperial court's military system first, so he had to be punished.

Immediately afterwards, someone changed the topic to the excessive power of the state priest, and once again proposed to abolish the state priest and only install a governor, especially to limit the governor's interference in the military.

After all, it is not only the state shepherd who can use a state's troops, but also the governor.

Only by fundamentally abolishing the military power of the governor can avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Liu Xie still didn't express his attitude, but just listened to the arguments of the ministers and asked people to record them for archiving.Find out who supports it, who opposes it, and why.

To be honest, it is not the time to cancel the state pastoral care, at least not the best time.

Discussion is to create public opinion and see the reactions of ministers.

-

After the meeting, the ministers withdrew, and Yang Biao stayed.

Liu Xie invited him to have tea and snacks, and let's talk about Yuan Shao by the way.

Yuan Shu looks like a hob meat, but he is actually a good boy.Even if he withdraws his Youzhou Mu, he probably won't have any violent reaction.

The purpose of arranging him to go to Youzhou was to create trouble for Yuan Shao.Now that Yuan Shao has been captured, his mission has been completed and he can retire.

On the contrary, how to deal with Yuan Shao was a bit tricky, so that Liu Xie didn't want to discuss this issue at the court meeting for the time being.He believed that there would definitely be a quarrel.

The first is uncertainty.

Yuan Shao had already proclaimed himself a vassal before, strictly speaking, it was illegal for Yuan Shu to attack him.This is also one of the reasons why some people attack Yuan Shu, but it is not so direct.

However, if Yuan Shu is not held accountable, it does not mean that Yuan Shao can be regarded as a criminal.

After proclaiming himself a minister, Yuan Shao had never done anything against the imperial edict, and the imperial court had no reason to condemn him as a criminal, and should even complain about him.

Yang Biao also had some headaches.

The couple wanted Yuan Shu to have a good talk and persuaded Yuan Shao to take the initiative to enter the court. No one thought that Yuan Shu would do this and directly captured Yuan Shao.

As a result, how to deal with Yuan Shao became troublesome.

The emperor hated Yuan Shao to the bone, and it was almost impossible for the emperor to let Yuan Shao live.What worried them even more was whether Yuan Shao could swallow this breath, or would he just die of anger?

Yuan Shao is a very thoughtful person.From Yi County to Chang'an, half a month's journey was enough for him to accumulate grievances.In order to avoid this situation, after receiving the news, Madam Yuan set off overnight to meet Yuan Shao, hoping to persuade him to relax and not go to extremes.

"How does His Majesty plan to deal with Yuan Shao?"

Liu Xie looked at the uneasy Yang Biao and smiled silently. "Duke Yang, the victor's heart is the most open. Do I have to put Yuan Shao to death?"

Yang Biao said embarrassingly: "Your Majesty is wise, it's my servant who treats His Majesty's belly with the heart of a villain."

"If he wants, I can make him an official. Of course, it won't be an important position." Liu Xie said with a calm smile on his face, "It turns out that he is not even a qualified prefect. Let’s retire in peace.”

Yang Biao smiled wryly.

This is more torture than killing Yuan Shao.

But he had no reason to object.

As the Son of Heaven said, Yuan Shao, as a loser, has no right to pick and choose.As far as his life experience is concerned, there is indeed nothing to mention about his political achievements.

The rebellion was his greatest undertaking, and the one he failed the most.

In the end, he was captured alive by Yuan Shu.

"How does Your Majesty plan to arrange Yuan Tan?"

"I plan to let him be a general, and I will go out with him to see his ability, and then reward him according to his merits."

Chapter 791

Liu Xie knew that Yuan Tan was different from Yuan Shao and was more troublesome.

Most of the Ruying people who regarded themselves as partisans gathered around Yuan Tan, and they would not let it go. After entering the court, they would inevitably cause even bigger disturbances.

It is impossible to simply shut them up, and breaking them up will only leave future troubles.After thinking about it, the best way is to pack it up and send it away.

He believed that Yuan Tan and the Ruying people behind him would not resign themselves to failure, and he must feel that it was Yuan Shao's incompetence, not their responsibility.If you listen to them, you will never come to this point.

So, he decided to give them a chance.

Are you not convinced?Then I will give you a south wall and let you bump slowly until you are convinced.

Of course, that cannot be said.

"If Yuan Tan is really capable of being a soldier, I plan to let him go to either side. Either south or north, or east or west, so that he can flex his muscles." Liu Xie rubbed his fingers. "Ruying is full of talents, how can it be limited to one place. There is not only one way to realize the kingly way. It is reasonable for a hundred schools of thought to contend, each to develop its strengths, in order to achieve the same goal through different routes."

Yang Biao's heart tightened.

He understood what Liu Xie meant.

There are too many people in Ruying and their influence is too great, they cannot be gathered together, they must be divided and conquered.

Reminiscent of Xun Yun's journey to the west, the emperor probably had this idea a long time ago, but he didn't put it on the surface.

"Does Yang Gong think it is feasible?"

Yang Biao calmed down and thought for a moment. "So it's only going south?"

"Why?"

"To the east are Sanhan and Japan, which Liu Bei ruled. To the west is the Western Regions, which Kebi can rule. To the north is the desert, which Cao Cao and Xun You rule. Only the south has no generals to guard it."

Liu Xie laughed. "Mr. Yang, in your spare time, you should also read some idle books to broaden your horizons. You can't just stare at the big man's surroundings."

"Your Majesty means..."

"The world is bigger than you think." Liu Xie turned his chopsticks upside down, dipped in some wine, and drew a grassland on the case. "Three Hans and the Wa Kingdom are just the new east gates of the Great Han Dynasty. Further east, there is still a large area of ​​land. It is said that after King Wu destroyed the Shang, a group of merchant survivors went all the way east and settled there..."

Liu Xie said while painting that the true and the false were mixed, and he drew a big cake for Yang Biao.

Anyway, Yang Biao didn't know whether it was true or not. Only after Yuan Tan and others left, could he know the truth.When the time comes to cook raw rice and cooked rice, it will be too late for them to regret it.

Yang Biao was taken aback when he heard that.

Rationally speaking, he doesn't believe what Liu Xie said. These are all rumors, not even rumors.But in terms of experience, Liu Xie is indeed not a person who talks about it.He said it so firmly, there must be some basis for it, but he was too involved in government affairs and his vision was not wide enough, so he felt that it was whimsical and absurd.

But one thing is good, the Son of Heaven didn't intend to kill Yuan Tan and Ruying, but wanted to give them a chance to prove themselves.

This is the bearing of a king.

Compared with stubborn or even extreme party members, the emperor is more confident and humble.

Goodness is like water.

-

Taiyuan.

Sun Rui bent over and got into Yuan Shao's carriage.

Yuan Shao lay down with his clothes on, motionless, but his face was a little flushed.

Shi Sunrui sat down beside him, closed the car door, but opened the window a little, and waved his hand.

Yuan Tan and others outside the carriage looked at Shi Sun Rui, turned around tacitly, and left the carriage for more than ten steps.

Ju Shou came over and greeted Yuan Tan.

The two sighed at the same time, feeling very complicated.

Shi Sunrui leaned against the car wall, looked out the window, and said quietly: "At the beginning, we haven't seen each other for ten years. You must have never thought that we would meet in this way, right?"

Yuan Shao didn't move, but pulled up the quilt on his body to cover his flushed face.

"You don't have to see me. When you arrive in Qi County, do you want to see Zishi? You don't need to see Zishi. When you arrive in Chang'an, do you want to see Taifu and Taifu?"

Yuan Shao's body trembled, and he slowly pulled back the quilt. "If it wasn't for the shameless meeting, why would I have lived so far? Jun Rong, you have always been so wise. Do you think I should live in vain, or die?"

Shi Sun Rui withdrew his gaze and looked at Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao opened his eyes, but he didn't look at Shi Sun Rui, his eyes were fixed on the void.

"Are you admitting defeat?" Shi Sun Rui said lightly.

Yuan Shao was silent for a long time. "If you don't admit defeat, you lose."

Sun Rui nodded. "Then do you know your mistake?"

Yuan Shao turned his head slowly, looked at Shi Sun Rui, his eyes became sharp, and he also laughed at himself. "I don't know, please ask Junrong for advice."

"You're right." Shi Sun Rui sighed quietly. "We were wrong."

"Jun Rong...what do you mean?"

"You heard me right, and I didn't mean to make fun of you. It's not that you were wrong, but we were all wrong." Shi Sunrui regained his composure, and gently stroked his knee. "This is also the consensus between Bo Jun (Wei Jie), Yuan Ying (Ju Jun), and Gong Yu (Ju Shou). We like to talk about Taoism, but we don't know that we use techniques. How can we use techniques as the way? success?"

Hearing Jushou's name and thinking that Jushou might be outside the car, Yuan Shao's heart tightened.

After a while, Yuan Shao regained his composure. "According to Junrong, I am not defeated by the emperor, but by the unknown?"

"Even if you succeed, can you do better than Emperor Guangwu? What difference does it make if the emperor's hometown changes from Nanyang to Runan? If you take Yuan Xi as your heir, can the incident of Empress Guo be avoided?"
