Xun Yu was the backbone of his high hopes, so he had to save some face at this time.

Seeing that Liu Xie had stopped talking, Zhang Xi felt relieved and glanced at Xun Yu in relief.

It's still the young generation of the township party.

Liu Xie raised his eyelids and smiled brightly again.

"I am young and have little knowledge, and my history is also shallow. You have expressed your views, but I still don't know where to go. Dare to ask the lord, and walk in the east of the river with the king's way?"

Xun Yu's scalp began to tingle, but he couldn't back down. "Of course."

"If it takes three years, can the lord of the government make the [-] households in the east of the river have enough food and clothing to live and work in peace and contentment, without the disturbance of the Qiang outside and the chaos of the people's livelihood inside?"

"I dare not say what I will say, but I only wish to do my best to live up to Your Majesty."

Liu Xie looked at Pei Mao again. "Shang Shuling, are you satisfied with the prefect I have chosen for Hedong?"

Pei Mao smiled and cupped his hands. "Your Majesty knows people well, and the people of Hedong accept Mu Tian's grace, and they will be the hands of thousands of people, and Putu will celebrate together. How dare you be dissatisfied."

Liu Xie said quietly: "As the Shang Shuling said, the people of Hedong and all the people will celebrate each other. Even if I work hard, it is worth it. Fujun, work hard, and don't fail the teachings of the saints. Don't let me, the people of Hedong, and all the people High hopes."

Xun Yu had no words to say, so he could only accept his orders.

Liu Xielang said: "Although I am ignorant and do not know how to govern, I only wish to choose the good and follow it. The ministers govern the country, and the Taifu governs the county. I hope that the monarchs and ministers will work together and do their best to create peace for the people. In this way, the heart of heaven and earth can be established, and the sages can continue to learn. Life is to share the joy of the kings, and death is to share the blood and food of the kings, wouldn’t it be happy.”

After hearing this, everyone had different moods when they shouted long live.

Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi were naturally happy.

What the emperor said was obviously a further confirmation of his previous promise to repay the rights.If I say it in front of so many people, I'm sure I won't go back on my word.

Xun Yu felt that his shoulders were heavy, and it was not an easy task to manage Hedong well.

The emperor's request seems simple, but in fact it is extremely difficult, almost impossible.

The emperor made it very clear that what he wanted was for the [-] households in the east of the river to have enough food and clothing to live and work in peace and contentment.

Yang Biao and Shi Sun Rui felt very sorry.

It is inevitable for Situ to rule the people, but it is becoming more and more difficult for the Taiwei to be in charge of the army.Although it is certain that the emperor is unwilling to delegate power, it is intentional.But the opportunity was missed just like that. It would be a lie to say that I have no regrets at all.

Yang Biao bowed his hands and went out. "Your Majesty, I have something to say, please consider it with your Majesty."

"Da Honglu, please tell me."

"Although there is salt and iron in Hedong, the arable land is limited, and I am afraid that it cannot support too many troops. I dare to ask your majesty to distribute the generals and feed the counties. This will not only reduce the burden on Hedong, but also protect the safety of Hedong."

Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao in surprise.

There is nothing wrong with this plan, and he had such a plan in the first place.

But Yang Biao raised it at this time, is it purely out of public interest, or is it an expression of concern for military power?

Liu Xie tentatively asked, "Can Da Honglu explain in detail?"

"Manpower is limited, and land resources are exhausted. There is also a certain amount of cultivated land in the east of the river. A family has 150 mu of land, and the rice is only 2 shi. The tithe tax is [-] shi, which is not enough to support a soldier. According to my estimate, give All [-] households in the east of the river have their fields, which can only support more than [-] people. Excluding officials and craftsmen, the number of soldiers should not exceed [-], otherwise they will not be able to eat enough to live and work in peace."

Liu Xie's brows trembled slightly.

Lao Yang, you have my spear and my shield.

But it doesn't matter, that's exactly what I mean.

Liu Xie nodded. "What the big thrush said is true, and I also have the same intention. The former general Duan Yao is already in Shangdang, and I want to branch out to Taiyuan, Hongnong, and Feng Yi. After the Huns' rebellion is suppressed, Xihe, Shangjun, and Jiuzhou will be restored. Yuan and other counties, branch armies."

Yang Biao handed over again. "Your Majesty has far-sighted thinking, and I admire it very much. It's just that far away water can't quench your thirst. If your Majesty wants to make the east of the river the king's way, you should first reduce the burden on the east of the river. Since your majesty intends to patrol Meiji, I dare to ask your majesty to move the northern army to Taiyuan for your majesty. temple."

This time, Liu Xie understood what Yang Biao meant.

Commander Sun Rui led the northern army to move to Taiyuan, which can not only reduce the burden on Hedong, but also serve as the rear for him. It is indeed a way to have the best of both worlds.

Of course, for Yang Biao and Shi Sun Rui, the most important significance of this plan is that once the Northern Army arrives in Taiyuan, even if they return to the army in the future, some troops will inevitably be left in Taiyuan to prevent Yuan Shao from entering Bingzhou in the west or leaving Jizhou in the east in the future.

When marching and fighting, use familiarity but not rawness. Sun Rui or Wei Jie, who are familiar with Taiyuan's geography, are naturally the most suitable generals.

Sun Rui made great contributions, so he had the opportunity to be promoted to the commander of the Taiwei again.

I know you don't give up.

"Yes!" Liu Xie was in the middle of his arms, and he agreed.

Chapter 245 Unexpected

The Son of Heaven is willing to practice the kingly way, and fulfills his promise to delegate power. Although it is not perfect, it has finally taken a big step towards the kingly way.

The monarch and his subjects got what they wanted, and the meal was very satisfying, and they were full of hope for the future.

All in all, this is a united conference, a harmonious conference, and a successful conference.

Only Xun Yu was troubled.

In order to let the [-] households in the east of the river live a good life with plenty of food, live and work in peace and contentment, and also support the imperial court and [-] troops, this responsibility is not ordinary, and the difficulty is not ordinary.

Even if Xun Yu is Wang Zuozhi's talent, he still finds it difficult.

Governance is not about talking, just talking about it.

He had no similar practical experience before, and the emperor suddenly entrusted him with the responsibility of practicing the kingly way, and he was under great pressure.

He had no memory of what was in the meal.

After the dinner, the ministers took their leave one by one.More than one person came over, or saluted Xun Yu, or encouraged Xun Yu, hoping that he could seize this opportunity to manage Hedong well and realize the long-cherished wish of Confucianism for hundreds of years.

But Xun You, whom Xun Yu most wanted to see, did not appear.

As soon as the banquet was over, Xun You returned to the account.

He is a servant, a close minister of the emperor, and his tent is in the imperial camp, very close to the emperor's tent, so that he can consult at any time.

This also made it extremely inconvenient for Xun Yu to want to see him.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xun Yu decided to go back to the city, and Xun You was gone.

-

Liu Xie stood at the entrance of the imperial tent, watching Xun Yu walk out of the camp and slowly head towards Anyi City.

"Can he do it?"

Tang Ji on the side said softly: "If he can't do it, the concubine can't think of anyone who can do it." She thought for a while and added another sentence. "Perhaps the kingly way is only an ideal after all, and cannot be practiced."

Liu Xie turned to look at Tang Ji. "Sister-in-law has great confidence in him."

Tang Ji smiled and lowered her head. "As long as I can remember, I feel that he is the most intelligent person in the world, and Wang Zuozhi deserves his name."

Liu Xie smiled without saying a word.

He doesn't know if Xun Yu is the most intelligent person in the world, but he knows that there is another genius in this era who is currently studying in Nanyang, but he is too young and may not be married yet.

They should be the same age, and some people even speculate that they are the same person, Crouching Dragon is the real dragon.

If Xun Yu can't succeed, he doesn't mind letting that crouching dragon try again to see if there is any possibility of practicing this kingly way.

What you brag about is awesome, so naturally you have to be responsible for realizing it.

"I hope his family can come here soon, and someone will take care of him so that it won't be so hard."

Tang Ji turned her head and glanced at Liu Xie, her mouth twitching slightly. "Your Majesty really intends to hire his daughter as a beauty?"

"Why not? As long as I can let him do my best, I don't mind marrying one or two more." Liu Xie shrugged, and said: "It doesn't itch if there are many lice, and there is no worry about debts. Anyway, this harem will not be quiet. A voice doesn't matter."

Tang Ji sighed and said goodbye.

It is not easy to be the supreme, and it is even more difficult to be the supreme of the Mingjun, and it is even more difficult to become the supreme of the great man than to ascend to the sky.

At such a young age, the Son of Heaven took on responsibilities that he shouldn't have.

-

When Liu Xie returned to the account, Fushou had already prepared the toiletries and waited for Liu Xie to wash up.

"Your Majesty's four sentences are really good." Fu Shou couldn't help but said: "Build a heart for the world, establish a life for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past, and bring peace to all generations. If you can achieve one of them, you are a sage. The only one who can achieve great success is the sage king?"

Liu Xie put down the cloth towel in his hand, glanced at Fushou, smiled and said nothing.

Count your knowledge.

If it is not the highest level of bragging, how can it become a must-have weapon for traversers.

Aren’t you all crying for the king’s way, so I’ll give you a bigger one to see if you have the courage to practice it.

Who can't brag, the one who can turn the bragging into reality is really awesome.

The ignorant are still talking, but the wise are probably already trembling.

"In a few days, I will go on an expedition. The empress should take care of the harem."

"How many days?" Fu Shou was taken aback.

In a few days, it will be the New Year. After the New Year, there will be a series of ceremonies for the emperor to attend in person. Is it appropriate to go on an expedition at this time?

Liu Xie nodded, indicating that he was right.

But he didn't explain.

With the forerunner of Song Du, I believe Fushou will keep his mouth shut.

The reason why he decided to leave in a few days is because he recently learned that the Huns have some new customs, such as celebrating the New Year like the Han people.When winter comes, they will enter the fortress in large numbers, and celebrate the new year in the luxuriant fortress, not on the bitter cold grassland.

If you want to hit the Huns hard, this is the best opportunity.

It won't be long before the Huns will receive the news that he has entered the east of the river, and they will be more vigilant.Coupled with the warmer weather, many people will leave the pastures in Sai Nei and return to Sai Bei, making it difficult to chase them.

Only by taking them by surprise and attacking before they react can there be a chance of success.

The original plan was not like this, because the conditions were not met, and the iron officials had no time to build enough ordnance.

After Pei Qian used the water discharge, the production efficiency has been doubled, and all the ordnance can be delivered within a few days, and the conditions are suddenly met.

Naturally, he would not let go of this rare opportunity because of the Chinese New Year.

Fu Shou didn't ask any more questions, and waited for Liu Xie to go to bed.

Liu Xie was tired all day and fell asleep after a while.

Fu Shou sat and watched for a while, then suddenly heard a sound from the front tent, and got up quickly.When I came to the front tent, I found that it was Ling Shi Caiyan.She Yu wrote the record and asked Liu Xie to have a look.

"Your Majesty has rested." Fu Shou said.

Cai Yan was very surprised, and then he blamed himself and said: "The concubine was negligent. Today, the emperor and his ministers had a big banquet, and the emperor drank a lot of wine, so he should rest earlier. The concubine should not come to disturb."

Fu Shou waved his hand, took the record from Cai Yan, and flipped through it.

"Emperor Beishou, will Ling Shi accompany you?"

Cai Yan looked at Fushou. "The concubine has not received the notification yet. There are many people who can record the daily notes, and the concubine may not necessarily need to accompany him."

Fu Shou handed over the record and sighed softly.

"If Ling Shi can bear the hardships of marching, let's go with him. There are indeed many people who can record daily notes, but very few can accompany His Majesty to study. Your Majesty can have such lofty ambitions without the guidance of Ling Shi. And When we are marching outside, we cannot accompany us, and the guards and Langzhong will inevitably not take good care of them. I can rest assured that Ling Shi will go with me."

Cai Yan blushed all of a sudden, and said Qiqi: "Your Highness, my concubine...has never had such ambition. The concubine is just..."

Fu Shou pressed Cai Yan's hand and patted it lightly.

"I am clear about Lingshi's character. This is not an order from the queen, but a request for a wife. Just as Lord Xunfu is responsible for practicing the kingly way, Lingshi is also a role model for women as officials. I shouldn't bother you." It's just that people's words are scary, even if Ling Shi is dedicated to being a minister, how many people believe that Ling Shi and His Majesty are just monarchs and ministers? Rather than bearing false names, it is better to be honest with the name and the truth."

Cai Yan blushed with embarrassment, not knowing how to answer.

This was a situation she had never thought about, and she was always on guard, for fear that the empress, who was vying for favor, would entrust the emperor to her.

I did not disrespect the emperor either.

Chapter 246

Cai Yan returned to the tent full of doubts, and sat in front of the case in a daze.

There was a soft knock at the tent door, and Tang Ji walked in. Seeing Cai Yan like this, she couldn't help being puzzled.

"Zhao Ji, what's wrong?"

"Ma'am." Cai Yan came back to his senses and hurriedly got up to greet her.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, how about sleeping with you tonight?"
