Liu Xie was not in the camp, he was practicing cavalry raids outside.

Guang Luxun Deng Quan and Shaofu Tian Fen were in the camp and received Zhao Wen and others.

Yu Linqi followed Liu Xie out, and there were only a thousand tigers in the battalion. Under the leadership of Song Guo, they practiced the guard of honor formation.

As the new year is approaching, various ceremonies require Huben to be the guard of honor, so you must be familiar with it in advance.

Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi stood watching for a while, then suddenly realized, and asked Deng Quan, "Your Majesty, this has always been like this?"

Deng Quan didn't think much about it, and nodded in affirmation.

"Has Your Majesty brought Tiger Ben to practice?"

"Not only the Guangluxun Battalion, but also the Northern Army. Only the cavalry participated in the exercise."

Zhao Wenwen and Zhang Xi glanced at each other, their expressions changed slightly.

They lived in the city and only knew that the emperor was training soldiers, but they didn't know that the emperor was only training cavalry.

It seems that the emperor put down the Huns rebellion with three thousand cavalry, and the plan to conquest has never changed. He has been preparing, but he didn't discuss it with them.

"Do you know that the Son of Heaven is going to lead the cavalry to attack the Huns?" Zhao Wen asked Deng Quan.

Deng Quan was stunned for a while, and then he realized that his face became very ugly.

He, Guang Luxun, is too dereliction of duty, he doesn't know what the emperor is thinking.

"Ashamed, ashamed." Deng Quan felt ashamed and couldn't help crying.

After running around with the emperor for several years, he had tasted all kinds of hardships, but in the end he ended up in such a field, becoming an ignorant bystander.

Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi felt sorry for each other, and the three sighed at each other.

After a while, Dahonglu Yang Biao rushed over, followed by Huchuquan.

Seeing that the three of Zhao and Wen were relatively silent, Yang Biao asked a puzzled question.Although he is not a Taiwei now, but Da Honglu, one of the Nine Ministers, Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi still regard him as a confidant, and they have described the emperor's actions these days in detail.

It's just that Hu Chuquan was by his side, and they didn't mention any objection to the emperor's expedition.

Yang Biao frowned, and said unceremoniously: "The Son of Heaven has something wrong, and I'll just speak up to advise him. Why do you act like a child. Junrong hasn't come yet? Send someone to invite him."

Deng Quan didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately arranged for someone to go to the Northern Army camp to invite Sun Rui, a soldier.

Yang Biao turned to Hu Chuquan and said, "Shan Yu, did you hear that?"

Hu Chuquan looked embarrassed, and quickly bowed his hands to salute. "I heard it, I heard it. Dahan Tianen, never dare to forget."

"In your opinion, can three thousand cavalry put down the rebellion?"

Hu Chuquan thought about it. "If you break through one by one and expel them from the fortress, it will be more than enough. If you go out to pursue the fortress, and cut grass and roots, it may not be enough."

Yang Biao raised his eyebrows and smiled at Zhang Xi.

"Ji Li teaches well, and Shan Yu advances and retreats politely. If he wears a martial crown and a fancy dress, he is no different from my Hanchen. After a few more years of teaching, Jin Riyi will succeed."

Zhang Xi's complexion was originally bad, but when he heard this, he even shook his face.

"It's still Wen Xian who is good at teaching, and Da Honglu is well-deserved."

In order to teach Hu Chuquan these etiquettes, he spent a lot of thought and almost died of anger.

What made him even more upset was that Yang Biao gave a lecture in Yang Dingying, the later general.

As colleagues, everyone should advance and retreat together. It's too embarrassing to change your mind suddenly without saying hello.

Seeing this, Zhao Wen quickly smoothed things over and criticized Yang Biao a few words by the way.

He was also dissatisfied with Yang Biao's actions.

Yang Biao disagreed and raised his hand. "You guys, you should go to the rear general's camp and take a look instead of sitting in the mansion and complaining. I think what the emperor said is reasonable. Although it is difficult to educate, it is easy to do. If you can turn the barbarians into China, Even if it takes a hundred years, it is worth it."

He turned to Hu Chuquan and said, "Will Shanyu be willing?"

Hu Chuquan was all smiles. "I can't ask for it, I can't ask for it. Speaking of it, I, the Huns, are very different from Xianbei and Wuhuan. We are the descendants of the princess of the Han family, and the nephews of the Han family. It is the expectation of generations to be in the court and guard the vassal of the Han family."

Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi looked at each other, dubious.

"Really?" Zhao Wen asked Zhang Xi in a low voice.

Zhang Xi shook his head. "I don't know." Although he taught Hu Chuquan etiquette, he didn't care much about what Hu Chuquan thought.

Yang Biao laughed out loud, and took the opportunity to criticize Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi.

He originally had the same opinion as Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi, but his attitude has changed a bit due to his close contact with Hu Chuquan in the past two days.

It is a polite word for the Huns to call themselves nephews of the Han family, but it is a fact that the Huns want to become a Han vassal state.

The Huns of today are not the Huns of the past.The grasslands have been occupied by the Xianbei people, and most of the Huns moved into Senei, half-cultivating and half-grazing. The nomadic life of living by water and grass has become a settlement, and stability has become the first requirement.

The most typical change is from brothers to fathers and sons.

The Shanyu position of the Huns was originally handed down between brothers, but the handover between brothers was likely to cause disagreements, and in the end they were often resolved by force, causing internal strife one after another.In contrast, the inheritance of names from father to son is more in line with human feelings.

However, there will inevitably be conflicts between the changes in the old and new systems.Qiang Qu was killed, and his dependence on the Han Dynasty was only one of the reasons. The most fundamental reason was that he intentionally passed the Chanyu position to his son Yu Fuluo instead of other brothers.

Now Yu Fuluo died of illness, and Hu Chuquan succeeded him, isolated and homeless.If one can become a vassal state of the Han Dynasty and accept the canonization and protection of the Han Dynasty, not only can he return to the United States, but the system of passing on from father to son can also be established, and Shan Yu's position can remain in his branch forever.

For Hu Chuquan, this is obviously a choice where the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and there is no reason not to accept it.

Both Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi are senior ministers, they don't need Yang Biao to explain too clearly, they can realize something with just a few words.

Enlightening the Xiongnu seems to be the emperor's wishful thinking, but in fact it is a natural need.

Just like the soldiers in Yang Dingying.It's not that they don't want to study and don't want to be gentlemen, but that they don't have the conditions to study.

In other words, it wasn't the emperor's wishful thinking, but they were slow to respond and didn't realize that the opportunity to educate the barbarians was at hand.

Chapter 242 Foresight

Confucianism attaches great importance to moral education, and the highest state is to cultivate morality to go far.

It is the most ideal achievement for a scholar to teach Yao and Shun, the son of heaven, and to teach the people to be respectful.

If this goal can be achieved, he can be called a famous official at the top, and he will be a follow-up official at the bottom, leaving his name in history.

It's just a pity that there are not many people who can stick to their ideals.Most people have great ambitions and pride before entering the official career, and gradually deviate from their original aspirations after entering the official career. They only care about their own self-interest, and only think about prosperity and wealth, from officials to public officials.

As for the ideal, it turns into a sigh in the dead of night.

Of course, most people will not think that they have lost their original intentions, they will only say that people's hearts are not ancient, and the king's way is difficult.

Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi are no exception, but to different degrees.

Suddenly seeing an opportunity to realize their ideals in front of them, they are naturally tempted.

Taking advantage of his master's convenience, Zhang Xi asked Hu Chuquan about the Huns.

After a while, Shi Sunrui and others also came and joined the chat group.

After a while, Zongzheng Liu Ai, Tingwei Xuanbo and others arrived one after another, and the atmosphere became more enthusiastic.

Surrounded by so many ministers, Hu Chuquan was flattered and sweated nervously, saying the same thing over and over again.

General Yang Biao pulled Sun Rui aside and asked about the emperor's military training.

Shi Sunrui quietly told about Song Du's disclosure of the forbidden Chinese language, which made the emperor angry, and sighed repeatedly.

Yang Biao nodded in agreement.

After spending so much effort, the eunuchs were finally cleared away, and it was rare for the emperor to return the power to the outer dynasty intentionally, so that extra problems could not be caused.

The reason why Fushou was made queen was because Fu Wan had no ambitions.

Harem meddling in politics will inevitably lead to eunuchs sitting upright.It's better to meet a wise king, but when you meet a stupid king like Xiaohuan and Xiaoling, if you hold the prince in your hand and have the constitution in your mouth, the world will be in chaos.

"Has the emperor ever dealt with Song nobles?"

"Empress Meng begged for mercy and punished copying "Biography of Lie Nu" and "Women's Admonition" in three ways."

Yang Biao's eyes flickered slightly, and he almost laughed.

The punishment of copying is indeed a bit childish.

"Jun Rong, the Son of Heaven is kind and generous, but you and I..." Yang Biao stroked his beard and sighed. "If you defeated Wei and Fan, why did you end up here? Governing the country requires both morality and punishment, and rebellion without punishment will only fuel the ambitions of some people. Look at them, embezzling household registration, farmland, hoarding, sitting and watching the court lack food and clothing, It's just downright disgusting."

Sun Rui was silent.

His philosophy is different from that of Yang Biao.The matter has come to this point, there is no point in arguing.

"The Son of Heaven wants to use three thousand horses to put down the Huns' rebellion, what can we do?"

Sun Rui looked back and led Yang Biao a few steps away. "Early this morning, Xu Huang led more than a thousand people to the southeast. If it is not bad, it should be to Jiguan."

Yang Biao was taken aback.

The emperor sent troops out of the camp, but he didn't discuss it with the minister.

It stands to reason that his Taiwei was dismissed, and Shi Sun Rui was not only not promoted to Taiwei, but even the original Weiwei was dismissed.The emperor wants to use the troops of the Weiwei battalion, and there are only a thousand people, so there is really no need to discuss with them.

But he always felt that this was the result of the emperor's intention.

"You mean to say..."

"The emperor's plan has been decided, you and I can't stop it." Shi Sun Rui said softly: "Xu Huang went to Jiguan to protect the enemies in Hanoi from driving straight in. Zhong Yao and Duan Yan were in Shangdang, and Yuan Shao's westward journey was blocked. Taiyuan is left unattended, I plan to ask for an edict to go to Taiyuan, can Wen Xian help me?"

"Are you going to Taiyuan to be the prefect?"

"It doesn't matter whether you are the prefect or not. The important thing is to guard Taiyuan and raise food and fodder in case of any eventuality." Shi Sun Rui was silent for a moment. "After all, I have worked with Wang Zishi for many years, and I have some old friendship. Maybe it will be more convenient for me to do things."

Yang Biao thought about it. "The Son of Heaven personally conquests, and the Northern Army is the palace, it should be. It's just... In this way, wouldn't there be only left general Yang Feng and rear general Yang Ding left in Hedong?"

Shi Sun Rui turned his head to look at Yang Biao, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

"Do you smell blood?"

The corners of Yang Biao's eyes twitched involuntarily, and he gasped.

-

At sunset, Liu Xie returned to the camp.

Yang Biao and others gathered at the gate of the camp, watching the emperor galloping towards him surrounded by a group of knights.

People are like tigers and horses are like dragons, which makes people feel heroic.

I haven't seen him for a few days, but the emperor seems to have grown a lot taller, stronger and more heroic.

Yang Biao stepped forward to salute and shouted in unison.

"Your Majesty is welcome back to the camp."

Liu Xie got off his horse, washed up briefly, and then asked the minister to enter the account.

The food and drink had been prepared, and after Liu Xie took his seat, the Shangshi Supervisor began to pass the dishes.Teams of maids and waiters brought the dishes into the account, and placed the steaming dishes in front of everyone.

The food and wine are not rich, and there are no delicacies from mountains and seas, but for Liu Xie and his ministers who have experienced several years of hardships, this is already a rare delicacy.Smelling the aroma of wine and food, some people couldn't help crying.

Since Zhongping six years ago, they have been living under the threats of Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and others every day, and their life is worse than death.

Although today's banquet is not considered grand, there will be no fear of life.

Emotions are contagious, and when one person sheds a tear, several others are saddened.

For a moment, there was a sound of sobbing in the tent.

Liu Xie was also a little sad.

These are the ministers who followed him through life and death.In the original history, most of these people died for their country.

Although there are various contradictions and differences, they are the last hearts of the big man.

If people think Han is not empty talk.

Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, raised his wine glass, and said in a loud voice: "Masters, it has been more than six years since Dong Zhuo rebelled. In the past six years, thanks to the support of the emperors, I have been able to live. Let's drink with you today. Congratulations to the ministers. If you die, the great man will rise again."

Situ Zhao Wen stood up first and raised his glass with both hands.

"Situ Chenwen, for His Majesty's birthday. May the world be peaceful and the great man flourish again."

All the ministers agreed one after another, and the atmosphere was warm.

Liu Xie drank it all in one gulp, filled up the wine again, and held it up high.

"I'm not sensitive, I lost my parents when I was young, and it's all thanks to the support of the kings, so I can have today. I hope to change the old with the kings, practice the king's way, and teach. Set up a heart for the world, a life for the people, and a legacy for the past. Absolute learning, bring peace to all generations."

After hearing this, everyone's blood boiled with excitement, even Yang Biao, who has always been steady, was very excited, and Xun You, who rarely showed his emotions, was also moved by it.
