Han Dao world

He thought for a while and climbed up the stairs.

Two tigers stood at the city wall, reaching out their hands to stop him.

"The emperor is summoning the ministers, please wait a moment."

Yang Xiu responded with a smile, and asked casually: "Who is the emperor summoning, and he must run to the city?"

The two tigers looked at each other, showing a hint of embarrassment.

Yang Xiu was slightly startled, then smiled and raised his hand. "Forget it, pretend I didn't ask."

"Thank you, servant, for your compassion." Huben saluted with a sigh of relief.

After a while, Shang Shu ordered Pei Mao to come up from the city, followed by a young man.Seeing Yang Xiu here, Pei Mao was a little surprised, bowed his hands in salute, and ordered the young man behind him to salute.

"This is Mr. Yang, the attendant. Please pay your respects quickly." Pei Mao said to Yang Xiu again: "Pei Jun, the dog, has been granted the position of Lang Guan by the favor of the emperor."

The boy took a step forward and bowed his hands in salute. "Wen Xi Pei Jun, whose name is Wen Jie, dare to ask about the servant's daily life."

While returning the gift, Yang Xiu jokingly said, "Lingjun, father and son brothers, gathered together in the court of the emperor, it's a joy to congratulate."

Pei Jun replied: "The Son of Heaven is in the world. He has traveled all over the world for thousands of years. He can accommodate thousands of people, four generations and three princes. How can there be more than my father, son and brother?"

Yang Xiu's eyes flickered. "Who did Mr. Pei learn from and what did he do?"

Pei Jun said: "Seldom learned from home, no famous teacher, but only a rough knowledge of the scriptures. By chance, I walked a few steps, met a few people, and heard some things from hearsay. I hope the waiter Mo Xiao."

When Yang Xiuxiu was about to question him, Pei Mao's face darkened, and he shouted: "Zhuzi, Yang Shizhong has a long history of education and is extremely intelligent, so you can show off. In front of the emperor, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and if you dare to be presumptuous, go home." , don’t get me into trouble.”

Pei Jun didn't dare to speak, and bowed to apologize.

Pei Mao smiled at Yang Xiu again: "I made the waiter laugh at me. The emperor summoned me and dared not stay. I will ask the dog to ask for advice later."

Yang Xiu looked embarrassed and remained silent.

Pei Mao seemed to be teaching his son a lesson, but in fact he was slapping him in the face.

Having just been scolded by his father Yang Biao, and now being ridiculed by Pei Mao again, Yang Xiu's mood is very bad, and he is no longer in the mood to chat with Huben.He walked a few steps forward along the city wall, standing alone with his hands behind his back, looking at the vast and distant mountains in the distance, feeling inexplicably sad.

Why is father angry?He roughly guessed.

After some planning, it all came to nothing.Not only did the Taiwei's soldiers become more and more distant, but there was also a gap between him and the emperor.

The old ministers who accompanied the emperor through thick and thin were left out in the cold, but the upstarts from Hedong poured into the court in large numbers.

I saw the newcomer smiling, but not the old man worrying.

After all, the Son of Heaven is still too young.

"Dezu?" A crisp call came from his ear.

Yang Xiu turned his head to look, and then smiled.Turning around, flicking the sleeves of the robe lightly, bowing hands in salute.

"I've seen Lingshi."

Cai Yan held a volume of brief policies, looked at the serious Yang Xiu, and couldn't help laughing: "As expected of a child of a noble family, he knows books and rituals. It's just that the transition is a bit quick. Just now, he was worried about the country and the people, but in a blink of an eye Changed face, both physically and mentally happy."

Yang Xiu couldn't help but smack his lips. "Ling Shi, this is a crime you want to impose. How can I..."

In the middle of speaking, he stopped abruptly, and his expression became extremely exciting.

It seems wrong to deny either.

Seeing that Yang Xiu was at a loss for words, Cai Yan couldn't help laughing. "You, cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness. You always want to be different from others, but in the end, you are bound by your own hands and feet."

"Hey." Yang Xiu laughed twice, trying to cover it up.

In front of others, he can be as sharp as a sword, and his eloquence is not hindered.In front of Cai Yan, he has no chance of winning at all, so he might as well admit defeat calmly.

"Ling Shi is in a good mood recently, do you have any good poems?"

"There are a few lines in the poem, whether it is good or not, but it varies from person to person."

"All ears."

Cai Yanqing coughed, and said slowly: "The country is broken, the mountains and rivers are here, and the ancient peaches are waiting for the return of spring. They can withstand the hardships of wind and frost, and can drink clear and turbid water. It is not like the usual taste."

After reading, she looked at Yang Xiu, seeming to be looking forward to it.

Yang Xiu savored for a moment, frowning slightly. "You made all these sentences?"

"What's wrong?"

"The first sentence..." Yang Xiu hesitated. "It seems to be slightly different from the last five sentences."

Cai Yan's eyes lit up. "What is the difference?"

"The first sentence has a great vision, but the last five sentences can't support it, and the pattern is small."

Cai Yan pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and then said: "Then take the first sentence as the title, how about you write a poem?"

Chapter 224

Yang Xiu thought for a while, and slowly chanted: "The country is broken, the mountains and rivers are here, and the feathers are flying like snow. The drums in the Guandong have not stopped, and the horns in the Guanxi have sounded. When the emperor got angry, the six dragons chanted together. Destroy the enemy's courage before the battle, and return to the court to caress Wanmin. Destiny is in Hande, no matter how difficult it is, there will always be something new.”

Cai Yan raised her eyebrows lightly, and slightly lowered her jaw. "After all, it is a husband, and the weather is different."

Yang Xiu was very surprised. "Didn't you write the first sentence?"

"It was chanted by the Son of Heaven." Cai Yan took another look at Yang Xiu. "Old ministers can plan for the country, but it is difficult to create new ones. Not only are the vitality and blood declining, and the physical strength is exhausted, but also the suspicion of sticking to the old ways and not changing the past. The young man Dezu has both fierce ambitions and is fortunate to follow the Holy Son of Heaven. Work hard to get rid of the old habits, establish a new policy, and rebuild peace."

Yang Xiu's heart moved slightly, and he thought of the emperor's question again.

"Ling Shi, there is one thing that I've been thinking about for a long time, but I haven't gotten in, so I dare to ask for advice."

"Between you and me, why ask for advice."

"How did Gao Zu win the world, but the descendants of the Six Kingdoms could not?"

Cai Yan blinked, then suddenly smiled and said, "This is a question from the emperor, right?"

Yang Xiu looked embarrassed. "Yes."

"Since the emperor asked you a question, it's inconvenient for me to answer it for you." Cai Yan stretched out his hand to straighten his hair at the sideburns, a cunning flashed in his eyes. "However, I can warn you."

"You said."

"There is a story in "Han Feizi" about people in Zheng buying shoes. You should have read it."

Yang Xiu nodded. "Of course I have read it." He immediately realized something. "Isn't Mei Zizhen (Mei Fu) following Tu Suojun's ridicule?"

Cai Yan sighed. "Dezu, you are as clever as a god, but not deep enough."

Yang Xiu rolled his eyes helplessly.

What's going on today?If you are not careful, you will be taught a lesson again.

"Think about it carefully, I have something to go." Cai Yan waved his hand and bid farewell to Yang Xiu with a trace of complacency.

Yang Xiu watched Cai Yan leave, savoring what Cai Yan said just now, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was no difference between these two things.They are all rigid in form and do not know how to adapt, so that the results are not satisfactory.

Of course, it didn't help him answer the emperor's question.

It can't be said that after the Six Kingdoms, they can't win the world because they don't know how to adapt?

When encountering an opponent like Xiang Yu, it's useless to be flexible.

Unless they are like the great ancestors, they have the mountains and rivers in Guanzhong.

-

Liu Xie received Pei Mao, Pei Jun and his son.

Pei Mao made great contributions to raising food this time, especially Wenxi County, which was second only to Anyi among the counties, and the Pei family almost donated all their pockets.

For such a great contribution and contribution, bestowing a son as a man is the minimum.

Although Pei Jun was young, that is, eighteen or nineteen years old, he had seen the world.

He just rushed back from Sichuan.

In this era of inconvenient transportation and poor sanitary conditions, long-distance travel is a very dangerous thing.Pei Jun was able to travel as far as Bashu at a young age, and his courage and knowledge surpassed most of his peers.

There is another point that Pei Mao didn't say, but Liu Xie roughly guessed it.

Pei Jun came back so quickly, it should be attributed to the timely information provided by Pei Mao or Pei Qian.The biggest possibility is that Pei Mao sent a message to Pei Qian in Jingzhou and Pei Jun in Shuzhong very early, asking them to come back as soon as possible.

Liu Xie even suspected that Pei Mao probably guessed that he could only go to Hedong and had nowhere else to go.

Liu Xie asked about the situation in Bashu.

Pei Jun came to Sichuan with his brother-in-law a few years ago, and has been in Chengdu for the past few years. He has experienced a series of events between Liu Yan's death and Liu Zhang's succession, and has observed the political changes in Yizhou closely.

Based on this experience, he made a suggestion to Liu Xie, contact Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and strive for Zhang Lu to become a minister to the court, and then obtain materials and talents in Yizhou.

One important reason why Yizhou did not contribute to the imperial court was that the rice thieves controlled Hanzhong and cut off the post road.

In fact, Zhang Lu was sent by Liu Yan.

Now that Liu Zhang succeeded to the throne and turned against Zhang Lu, it was a good opportunity for the court to win over Zhang Lu.

Zhang Lu became a minister, and the post road was reopened. Perhaps Liu Yan was still unwilling to contribute, but he could not stop the people of Yizhou from turning to the court.

Liu Yan, Liu Zhang and his son did not get along well with Yizhou people.Liu Yan killed Jia Long and offended the Yizhou clan.Liu Zhang killed Zhang Lu's mother, Lu family, and offended the people at the bottom of Yizhou. Now he can only rely on Dongzhou soldiers to support him.

If the post road can be opened up, a large number of Yizhou people will inevitably rush to the court.

For Liu Zhang, this is undoubtedly a heavy moral blow.

Liu Xie felt reasonable.

Regardless of whether this is Pei Jun's own opinion or the result of discussions with Pei Mao, this is a feasible solution.

Even if it doesn't work, there is no loss, it's just a seal and ribbon of the prefect of Hanzhong.

"Do you understand their teachings?" Liu Xie finally asked.

Pei Jun glanced at Pei Mao with a guilty conscience.

Pei Mao shouted angrily: "Your Majesty asked you, answer truthfully, don't look left and right, you are rude."

"Although the rice religion in Yizhou echoes the Taiping Taoism in Kanto, in terms of doctrine, the rice religion only wants to become immortals and has no interest in changing dynasties. They follow Lao Tzu as their sect, advocate seclusion, are good at refining elixir, and cast spells. "

"Are there many craftsmen among the congregation?"

"It should be quite a lot." Pei Jun didn't have much interest in this, so he closed his mouth after saying a few words.

Liu Xie didn't ask any more questions, and immediately worshiped Pei Jun as Lang Guan, and stayed with him for a while before arranging specific tasks.

Pei Mao and Pei Jun thank you.

Liu Xie then asked Pei Mao his opinion on how to deal with the Huns.

Pei Mao also disapproved of the emperor's personal conquest.

He felt that civil strife among the Huns was common, and it was not worthwhile for the emperor to mobilize troops—even if it was only [-] cavalry—for this.The safest way is to appoint an envoy to the Xiongnu Zhonglang to accompany Hu Chuquan back to Meiji to resolve the civil strife among the Huns.

The body of the emperor Wancheng is not suitable for taking risks, it is better to stay in Hedong.After recuperating for a few years, sending troops to quell the Xiongnu is easy.

Liu Xie heard Pei Mao's implication.

He hoped that the court would stay in Hedong instead of going to Taiyuan.

"Ling Jun, the household registration in Hedong is insufficient, and I am afraid it will be difficult to supply the consumption of the imperial court."

Pei Mao bowed and bowed again. "Your Majesty, Taiyuan and Shangdang do not have more household registrations than Hedong, and they have no salt and iron. Even in terms of the present, they are not as good as Hedong. In terms of the future, they are not as far away as Hedong."

Liu Xie remained silent.

Whether to establish the capital in Hedong or to establish the capital in Taiyuan, each has its own advantages.

But the attitude of the people in Hedong cannot be ignored.

So far, Taiyuan has not responded. No one knows whether the court is welcome.

People from Hedong are very enthusiastic, at least on the surface.

Rejecting easily will disappoint people from Hedong like Pei Mao. If Yuan Shao sends someone to contact him in the future, they are very likely to waver.

"Ling Jun, this matter has a lot to do with it. Allow me to discuss it with the ministers before making a decision."

"What your majesty said is true. I think that your majesty might as well consult the governor of Hedong. No one among the ministers can surpass him in terms of familiarity with Hedong."

Liu Xie's eyes flickered slightly. "Is Lingjun and Xun Yu old friends?"

"In the sixth year of Zhongping, Yu was the order of the palace guard, and the minister was the order of the minister, both belonging to the Shaofu."
