For Li Xi's sake, Liu Tan couldn't kick Li Buyan out anyway.

Three people were added at once. It was easy for Liu Tan to report their names, but it was not so easy to win official positions for them.

The prime minister is Huo Guang, so he doesn't have to worry too much, but there are two other people who are also appointed by the court, that is, the Tingwei and Duwei of the vassal states.

Ting Wei is in charge of a country's prisons, and Du Wei is in charge of a country's military affairs.

Cooperating with the Prime Minister, these two people control almost all the power of a country in their hands. In Liu Tan's eyes, the position of captain is actually very important, even more important than the Prime Minister.

The teacher said that political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. If you can hold military power in your own hands, can the prime minister of the country still shake the world?

But even if he knew that he didn't want to rebel or fight for the position of prince, Liu Tan also knew that the idea of ​​fighting for military power was to dance on the sensitive belt of Liu Che and Liu Ju, so he could only think about these things in his heart, and then recommended Jiang to be the court lieutenant .

In fact, in Liu Tan's mind, the most suitable person for Tingwei is the kind of upright and upright person who can sit upright on his own, but not to mention the Tingwei's mansion of the princes, even the officials in the Tingwei's mansion of the whole Han Dynasty are hard to describe. Liu Che Now I like to use cool officials again.

So even if he was dissatisfied with Jiang Chong, Liu Tan pushed him up because he was the most suitable. After all, he had just dealt with the witchcraft case before, and Liu Che's evaluation of him seemed to be pretty good. If Liu Che was willing to let him go, there should be no question.

As for the captain... Liu Tan decided not to say a word, whoever comes is whoever comes, if he is a good person, he will find a way to win him over, if it doesn't work... then let's talk.

It's just that Liu Tan didn't expect Liu Che to hand over this matter to Liu Zheng.

Liu Ju has been carefully selecting the right person for Liu Tan these two days. In his heart, the northern border country is already very difficult, so he can't get some useless wood to go there to hold back his younger brother.

Even if Liu talked about doing nothing there but eating, drinking and having fun, then if these officials are not capable, the tax revenue will be less, and the princes and kings will be poor if the tax revenue is low.

How can his brother endure hardship and poverty?

When he saw that Liu Tan was going to let Jiang be the court captain, he hesitated for a while and called Liu Tan to the Taiwomen, and said straight to the point: "This Jiang Chong...do you want to change someone?"

Liu Tan's heart skipped a beat, Jiang Chong didn't offend the prince this time, is he going to kill the donkey?

He asked in a low voice: "What's the matter? Did Jiang Chong do something wrong?"

Liu Ju shook his head and said, "That's not true, it's just that this person...is too evil-minded and cruel, he is not a good person, I'm afraid you will suffer."

Liu Tan said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't believe that I should believe in Huo Guangcai. When we went out together, Jiang Chong was very afraid of Huo Xiang. Your Highness don't need to worry too much."

Liu Ju was a little surprised: "It seems that you know him very well, so why should he be the only one?"

Liu Tan smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "After all, he also experienced hardships with me. At that time, he did not escape alone, and he did not hinder me when I was going to rob the country. I would not be too serious in normal times." Just take care of him, but I'm afraid he won't be able to survive now that he's done with the errands in hand, I can't bear to see him not end, so I'll take him away."

Liu Ju asked clearly: "Did he beg you?"

Liu Tan pursed his lips and smiled without speaking.

Liu Ju was a little helpless, and finally agreed with his idea after thinking about it, and said: "In this case, I have to find you a powerful captain, otherwise it would be too difficult for Huo Guang to suppress Jiang Chong alone. he."

Liu Tan asked cautiously: "Then... who is it? Don't be too old."

Liu Ju laughed: "Why can't you be older? You should find someone older to watch over you brats!"

Well, Jiang Chong is the oldest person in Liu Tan's set now, and he is not yet 30 years old. He is too young for a country's leadership team, so it's no wonder Liu Ju said so.

Liu Tan Yizheng said: "Why would I think so? I just think that the conditions in the bitter cold land of the northern border country are not good. The older generals have all fought in the battlefield, and they may have suffered injuries. That kind of place is too painful."

In the end, Liu Ju was not as good as Liu Che, if it was Liu Che, he would probably give Liu Tan a disdainful look at this time.

But now Liu Ju just looked at Liu Tan suspiciously, unable to judge the truth of this statement.

The main reason is that Liu Tan's face is so sincere and believable!

It is impossible to say that Liu Tan does not have this idea, but if he is really worried, he is not. It is more because he is afraid that he will lose a very capable person. When the time comes, his opinions will not be unified with them. Get yourself into trouble?

Liu Ju thought for a while, then simply waved to Liu Tan and said, "There are two people who are more suitable for me, you can choose one."

Huh?Can I still choose?

Although the selection range has been given, no princes and kings have received this treatment before.

Liu Tan didn't want to look too excited, so he said reservedly: "Is this not in line with etiquette?"

Liu Ju nodded his forehead and said, "I didn't see you so disciplined when I led troops to rob the country."

Liu Tan shrank his neck, moved to Liu Ju's side and began to look at the list and resumes of the candidates.

The first person Liu Tan came to see was Sang Qian.

Liu Tan was a little surprised. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't remember who this person was, so he couldn't help but ask, "Who is he?"

This Sang Qian is not very old, only 30 years old.

Liu Tan didn't think this person was too young, but was a little surprised. To be selected by Liu Ju at this age must have some background, but why hadn't he heard of this person before?

Liu Ju couldn't help but raised his hand and patted his head: "What do you care about all day long? His father is Sang Hongyang."

Huh?Sang Hongyang!

Although Sang Hongyang appeared in history as the opposite of Huo Guang, a loser, but he must be very powerful himself, otherwise how could he be left alone by Liu Che on his deathbed?

It's just that his son's reputation is not obvious, so Liu Tan doesn't pay much attention to him.

He simply asked: "How is this man marching?"

"It should have never been in contact."

Liu Tan looked up at Liu Ju in shock: "What?"

I have no contact with you to send such a person to me, what kind of hatred and resentment?

Liu Shi said: "Sang Qian is proficient in classics, and should be good at academics. Coupled with his father's influence, his quality is not bad."

Liu Tan couldn't help but said, "That's not the point!"

Liu Ju glanced at him indifferently: "That's the point."

Liu Tan seemed a little dazed, and then realized that Sang Qian would be in a hurry if he was not good at this aspect. At that time, Liu Tan would probably be able to take over in a logical manner, even if he didn't take over by himself, he could let the people below take over Sang Qian— — and Li Buyan and Wei Buyi.

But... Liu Ju gave him favoritism like this, which made him a little frightened.

He asked in a low voice, "This...isn't that good."

Liu Ju looked down at the list in his hand and said, "I don't think it's too good either, so there's another Zhao Puonu to be selected, but... Zhao Ponu's father may have another job, but... if Zhao Puonu If people like this pass by, you can only be the king of the northern realm."

Liu Tan didn't speak, so what did he say?Admitting that he not only wants to be a dandy prince, but also wants to hold real power?

Liu Ju propped his hands on the desk and said in a deep voice: "I know I'm taking a risk, but I'm only giving you this chance, as long as you can really defend the northern border country, both me and the emperor can open their eyes." Close one eye, so...it depends on your own choice."

No matter how confident Liu Tan was, he didn't dare to boast about Haikou. Before he robbed the country, he was caught off guard.

What's more, the strength of Jieguo is weak, how can it compare with the Xiongnu?

However, since Liu Ju has the courage, it is impossible for Liu Tan to back down at this time. He said decisively: "Then Sang Qian, if this is the case...then the king's capital should be located in Shuofang City."

Liu Ju immediately objected: "No, it's too dangerous there."

Although it is said that the northern border country is dangerous, there are always places that are safe. For example, Jincheng County and Anding County are not in the middle of the entire Hou Kingdom, but no one stipulates that the king's capital must be in the middle.

Shuofang City in Shuofang County is almost at the border, which is too dangerous.

Liu Tan said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, isn't there another surrendered city in front of Shuofang City? General Gongsun Ao is guarding there now, what's the danger?"

Liu Ju was helpless: "Gongsun Ao... don't expect too much from him, the emperor will not agree to the country's capital here..."

Liu Tan said seriously: "But if you don't put it there, guarding the gate of the country is a joke."

Facts have proved that even Liu Che failed to change Liu Tan's mind in this regard, let alone Liu Zheng.

Liu Ju had no choice but to say: "Then you can go after the palace is built."

At least give his brother a better living environment.

Liu Tan immediately waved his hand: "No, no, I will do it myself. What if I don't like what they have done?"

In fact, if he hadn't had to choose an existing city as the capital, he would have wished to build a new one himself.

It is easier to sway on white paper than to tinker with other paintings.

Liu Tan has a lot of ideas in his mind, and he wants to put them into action. How could he let Liu Ju send someone to rest the capital first?

Liu Ju knew that he had an idea, so he didn't say any more.

And Liu Tan also managed to go to the northern border country in autumn. His reason is really irrefutable: the Huns will come to plunder when winter comes, and he needs to go there quickly to make preparations.

Seeing that he couldn't keep them, Liu Che simply kicked his two sons away.

Well, Liu Fuling was also ordered to go to Qidi, but he was different from Liu Tan, Liu Tan was eager to leave, while Liu Fuling was eager to use all his skills and did not want to leave.

It's a pity that Liu Che has made up his mind, how could he change his mind?He even directly named Mrs. Gouyi the Queen Mother of Qi, and asked Mrs. Gouyi to follow Liu Fuling to become a vassal.

Liu Tan was completely relieved this time. The mother and son seemed to have no chance to come back. Mrs. Li died, and Wei Zifu was very honest. Chen Ajiao's life should not be too sad.

Of course, there is no way to cut off people from Liu Che's side, but those Liu Tans can't be controlled either.

On the day of departure, Liu Tan looked at the person he was going to take away, and was in a daze for a moment—this team, except for one more Sang Qian, was like a repetition of yesterday!

I don't know if it's because the familiar people got together again, Huo Guang and Jiang Chong seem to be much more harmonious.

Except for Sang Qian, everyone had smiles on their faces, which was in stark contrast to Liu Fuling's team next door.

The people who came to see them off were a little confused for a while, they looked at the left and then the right, if they hadn't confirmed that the booklet had been sent out, and the jade seal and the like were certain, they would have doubted that it was five people who went to Qi. The prince, and the one who went to the northern border country is the sixth prince.

Liu Tan was even more happy when he saw Liu Fuling's resentment, and couldn't help but hummed: "Today is a good day~"

Liu Shi who came to see him off: ...

Liu Ju turned around and reported it to Liu Che. Liu Che almost laughed angrily: "He still hummed a ditty? When he gets to Shuofang City, let's see if he can still laugh!"

In fact, when Liu Tan stood in front of the gate of Shuofang City and watched the three big characters of Shuofang City become weathered, he really couldn't help but laugh.
