While hesitating, Aiken rushed over and rushed straight to Liu Xie. "Your Majesty, Liu He asks to see you."

"Liu He?" Liu Xie thought for a moment, then said to Aiken: "Let him wait a moment, wash his face, and I'll be right here."

"Wei." Aiken turned around and ran away again.

Standing in the water, Liu Xie saw that Fu Ya was still hesitating, so he couldn't help kicking up the water, which wet Fu Ya's clothes.Fu Ya was startled, wanted to scream but didn't dare, looked at Liu Xie uneasily.

"Your Majesty, why are you bullying my husband?" Bei Gongchun refused to obey, and glared.

Liu Xie walked up to Fu Ya, grabbed Fu Ya by the collar, and said in a low voice: "Why, do you want a woman to fight for you?" Then he turned his head and shouted: "So what if I bully him? You Qiang people Don't you believe in the strong? He is too weak, so he will naturally be bullied."

"He's weak, but I'm not weak..." Bei Gongchun yelled, and rushed over aggressively, splashing water everywhere.Before he finished speaking, Lu Xiaohuan took a step forward and stood in front of Bei Gongchun.

"Get out of the way!" Bei Gongchun yelled, staring.

"Hey, men's affairs should be resolved by men, and women's affairs should be resolved by women." Lv Xiaohuan twisted her fist and said enthusiastically. "In a few years, I will also enter the palace, so the emperor is also my man. If you want to touch my man, you have to pass my test first."

"Why are you too..." Bei Gongchun yelled angrily. "Why can you all, but I can't?"

"Because you're not strong enough." Lu Xiaohuan exclaimed triumphantly.

"I'll fight with you." Bei Gongchun was so furious that he jumped up and grabbed Lu Xiaohuan's arms.Lu Xiaohuan grabbed Bei Gongchun's arms with his backhand, and the two began to wrestle in the water.

Liu Xie patted Fu Ya on the shoulder. "You, hurry up and exercise, otherwise, you won't be able to lower this big green horse." Then he said to Beigong Dashi who hurried over: "Marshal, you came just in time, follow me to meet someone."

"Your Majesty, this..." Beigong Dashi pointed at Beigong Chun and Lu Xiaohuan who were fighting, with an embarrassed expression.

"Leave them alone, let them solve it by themselves." Liu Xie walked to the shore, got on his horse, and shook his head at Beigong Dashi again.

Beigong Dashi had no choice but to leave Beigong Chun alone, jumped on the horse led by the guards, and followed Liu Xie.Wang Yue wanted to follow, but Liu Xie waved his hand, indicating that they don't need to follow.Wang Yue didn't think too much, and stopped in his tracks.

He knew very well in his heart that with the emperor's skill, as long as he was not careless, the two Beigong Dashi were no match.

The emperor seemed to be casual, but in fact he was extremely cautious, and would not give Beigong Dashi a chance at all.

Beigong Dashi felt a surge of heat in his heart, and then he stopped his guards and walked side by side with Liu Xie. "Your Majesty, I have seen many leaders, including warriors like Dong Zhuo, but none of them can be as majestic as Your Majesty."

"There is no such thing as a king. I just regard the commander-in-chief as a relative." Liu Xie looked at Fu Ya who was still in a daze. "My brother-in-law is a scholar, and his body is weak. The commander-in-chief can tell Ling Ai to be gentle and not to break it."

Beigong Dashi couldn't help laughing. "Your Majesty was joking. How could it be? My girl is used to being wild and can't speak. In fact, she cherishes her being able to marry Mr. Fu. Of course, Your Majesty is more outstanding, and she is a little greedy."

"Humans, it is inevitable that they are a little greedy, especially when they are young, they wish that all the good things are their own." Liu Xie also laughed. "When you get older, you will know that some things are better in moderation."

"Your Majesty is right." Beigong Dashi tilted his head and looked at Liu Xie. "Excuse me, to be blunt, Your Majesty is also a young man, how could he have such brilliant insights?"

"Without others, read more. Although the wisdom of the ancients can be passed on by word of mouth, the spread of songs and songs is not as convenient as books. It is rare for a singer to remember a long song with hundreds of thousands of words and know the stories of dozens of people. Books are not the case, as long as you want, you can even know thousands of stories. There are successes and failures in these stories, which are enough to learn from.”

"Yes, ever since my daughter married Fu Jun, she often listened to Fu Jun's lectures and often showed off to me. I also listened to Fu Ya's lectures, so I realized that we Qiang people are descendants of China, but they live in a remote place. In this land, there are few chances to study, and this is not as good as the people in the Central Plains."

Beigong Dashi said with emotion: "The tribes in the surrounding mountains heard that Mr. Fu is teaching apprentices here, and they all came to me, and wanted to ask Mr. Fu to accept their children as apprentices. I made a rough calculation. I guess the new school is not enough. It needs to be expanded. It’s just that the school is easy to build, but the master is too busy. Your Majesty, can you arrange a few more people to come? It’s best to be a gentleman who can dry salt and iron.”

Chapter 577

Liu He described himself as haggard, physically and mentally exhausted, and could hardly stand still.

He has led the army to fight for several years, and he can be regarded as a soldier with a strong body.However, after running for half a month and traveling three thousand miles, he still felt unbearably tired.

This gave him a better understanding of the record of wolf cavalry.

Behind the seemingly legendary record is the unbearable hardship for ordinary people.

This kind of understanding existed after he met Xun You, but now it is more real.

Xun You sits on Tanhan Mountain and is famous, but his life is very simple, not much better than ordinary herdsmen.Although Bingzhou is recovering, there are very few people who can support Xun You, and it is already the limit to guarantee a certain amount of food reserves in case of emergencies.

Compared with the extravagance of Yuan Shao and others, Xun You's life can only be described as shabby.

If I were to replace Xun You, would I be able to endure this kind of life all year round?Liu He asked himself more than once, but he never got an answer.

The brisk sound of horseshoes interrupted Liu He's thoughts.He raised his head and saw two knights galloping lightly from not far away.One old and one young, about the same size, dressed casually, with trousers rolled up and bare feet, one could tell they were barbarians.

Liu He took a look, then looked away, until the horse stopped in front of him, and a bare foot dangled in front of him twice.

"Gongheng, are you safe?"

Liu He raised his head in surprise, and looked at the young man in front of him again.After a while, his heart shook violently.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?"

"Why, don't you dare to admit it?" Liu Xie laughed loudly and got off his horse.

Liu He came back to his senses, quickly pulled up his clothes and knelt down. "General Zhengbei Zhonglang, Chen He, pay homage to Your Majesty."

"Get up, get up." Liu Xie lifted Liu He up, up and down, carefully looked at Liu He twice, and nodded slightly. "Suffering destroys the weak, but makes the strong stronger. If you are not destroyed by suffering, you will be able to achieve something in the future. There will be successors to the Taifu, and the spirit in heaven can rest in peace."

Hearing the emperor mentioning his late father, Liu He's nose was sour, but his heart felt warm.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Are you hungry? When did you eat?"

"Last night, I was treated by Captain Yan at the Western Commandery." Liu He raised his hand to wipe away his tears. "Knowing that His Majesty is in the West Sea, I can't wait to fly here with my wings, and I don't care about eating the court food."

Liu Xie then ordered people to prepare wine and food, and ordered people to pass on Tian Chou.On the lush grass, Liu Xie sat cross-legged without a seat.Liu He originally wanted to sit on his knees, but seeing Liu Xie with his legs crossed, and Bei Gong Dashi with his legs crossed, he had no choice but to follow suit.

"This is my son of the Liu family, a hero in the clan, named He, courtesy name Gongheng, Ren Zhengbei Zhonglang General." Liu Xie said to Beigong Dashi.

Beigong Dashi hurriedly cupped his hands in salute, and looked at Liu He seriously. Seeing that although Liu He was haggard, his facial features were correct and his appearance was dignified, he was a little moved.The emperor attaches so much importance to this person, and he is also a clan, so he will definitely be able to reuse him in the future.It would be of great benefit to his tribe if he could gain connections.

"This is the leader of the Qiang tribe on the west seashore, Marshal Beigong Dashi. His elder brother is Beigong Boyu, and his daughter, Beigong Chunjin, has just married Fu Ya as his concubine."

Liu He bowed his hands politely, and exchanged a few words with Beigong Dashi, but his heart was a little beating.Beigong Boyu was a powerful man in Liangzhou who once raised troops to rebel.His brother is with the emperor, and they are so close, if he has a different intention, the consequences will be disastrous.

Just talking gossip, Tian Chou came on horseback.When he came to him, he threw the stirrup off the saddle, got off the horse, rushed to Liu He, grabbed Liu He's arm, and burst into tears.

"Gongheng, you are finally here."

Liu He was also very grateful and held four arms with Tian Chou. "Thank you Zitai for caring about me, I only hate that I was embarrassed back then and didn't listen to Zitai's good words."

"It's good if you come, it's good if you come." Tian Chou patted Liu He's shoulder hard. "If you lose your mind and know how to turn back, you know that the right way is not easy. If you break the sword and practice again, you will surely succeed. The emperor is sage, you follow the emperor, live up to the loyalty of the grand master, and you will be able to shine in the future."

"Tian Zitai, do you also want to be a sycophant?" Liu Xie smiled and said, "Sit down. Don't worry, speak slowly, we are still young and have plenty of time."

"Yes, yes, what His Majesty said is true. We are all young and have plenty of time." Tian Chou echoed, and sat down with Liu He again.

When the milk tea was ready, two Qiang maids brought it over.Liu He took it, took two sips, calmed down, and began to talk about his experience after leaving Beijing under the imperial edict.Tian Chou knew some of these things, and Liu Xie knew some of them, but they were incomplete. At this moment, Liu He personally narrated them, one by one, and one by one, they finally came together.

Speaking of the hesitation and entanglement these years, Liu He was ashamed, and pleaded guilty to Liu Xie again and again.

Tian Chou saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart.

He was most afraid that although Liu Heren had come, he would not admit his mistakes in his heart, cover up his mistakes, and try to get away with it in front of the emperor.He has been with the emperor for several months, and he knows that although the emperor is young, his mind is extremely deep.As long as Liu He is lucky, it is difficult to escape the eyes of the emperor, and there will be a grudge in his heart, and it will be difficult to use Liu He with confidence in the future.

The deeper Liu He understands, the brighter his future will be.

Liu Xie listened quietly, barely speaking, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

He was surprised that Liu He could come here.He was even more surprised when he heard Liu He's introspection.There is no historical record of this person's ending. Some people suspect that he was killed by Yuan Shao just like Qu Yi.It now appears that this speculation is likely to be true.

Liu He is a talented person with both civil and military skills, plus Liu Yu's influence in Youzhou, if he doesn't kill him, it will be difficult for Yuan Shao to truly control Youzhou.

Although there are many dudes among the children of the aristocratic family, there is also no shortage of talents.If it cannot be controlled at the macro level, it is almost an inevitable trend for the aristocratic family to become bigger.In contrast, the royal family is far behind the aristocratic family in the probability of producing talents because they don't have enough opportunities to practice.

The clan is also a family, and it is a special family with royal blood.

When the Han Dynasty was first established, Liu Bang replaced the king with a different surname with the clan.Before long, the clan became a threat, sparking the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued a decree of grace to restrict the clan, which initially solved this problem.Emperor Guangwu's control over the clan was further strengthened, but the clan rose again with the help of Confucian classics, and Liu Yan, Liu Biao and others all coveted the imperial power.

It is better not to be defenseless than to be defenseless.

An extremely bold idea gradually formed in Liu Xie's mind.

"Gongheng, would you rather lead the army or rule the people?" Liu Xie said unhurriedly, taking a sip of milk tea.

Liu He's expression froze, revealing some uneasiness, and he quietly glanced at Tian Chou.

Tian Chou nodded calmly.

Seeing this, Liu He calmed down a little, and summoned up his courage to say: "The minister regards the clan as a man, and moved to serve as a servant. He has no experience at all. He went out of the pass according to the order, and summoned soldiers to serve the king. I am uneasy, the state and county are not peaceful, and I am willing to do my best to be your majesty's pawn."

"Are you good at walking or riding?"

"I...you can walk or ride, but the ride is slightly longer."

"You rest for a few days, first serve as a regular servant of scattered cavalry, and familiarize yourself with the combat methods of scattered cavalry and armored cavalry." Liu Xie looked at Liu He with a smile. "Yan Xing stayed in Linqiang and served as the captain of the west. I lack a right governor. I hope you can be competent."

Liu He was stunned and did not respond for a long time.

Chapter 578

Tian Chou was also taken aback, wondering if he heard it wrong.

The emperor made Liu He Tongbing understandable.After all, the world is in chaos, and it is the time for employing people.Liu He has the ability to command troops, so there is no reason not to use it.

However, the emperor intended Liu He to be the right governor of Sanqi, which exceeded his expectations.

The rank of the right governor of Sanqi is not high, but the responsibility is heavy.Serving as a servant of the emperor in peacetime, and commanding armored cavalry in wartime, not only must he be brave and good at fighting, but also be loyal and loyal without the slightest suspicion.Once it is released in the future, it must be a general.

Yan Xing's appointment as the captain of the western region was the emperor's hand in controlling the Qiang people.After Han Sui, father and son, and Cheng Gongying left Jincheng successively, the western captain stationed in Linqiang was the most important general in Liangzhou, and he could not be a confidant.

Is it a temptation for the emperor to attach so much importance to Liu He, or is it a reward for Liu Yu?

"Is it because you don't want to, or because you're worried that you won't be able to do it?" Liu Xie said with a smile.

In a word, Liu He's fighting spirit was aroused.

He cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to try my best."

"I am optimistic about you." Liu Xie paused, and then said: "A single tree cannot make a forest. I hope you can become a role model for the clan, and in the future more clan children will become the pillars of the imperial court."

"As Your Majesty wishes." Liu He said loudly.

Tian Chou's heart beat faster.The emperor must not only reuse Liu He, but also follow Liu He's example and reuse the clan's children.Under the current situation, this is indeed an extremely bold and wise decision.

If Liu Biao and Liu Zhang could feel the sincerity of the emperor and surrender without a fight, half of the world would be peaceful.With the well-off Jingzhou and Yizhou, the imperial court's food shortage problem can also be greatly alleviated.

-

After asking about Liu and himself, Liu Xie asked about the situation in Youzhou.

Liu Xie's reaction to Yuan Shao going south after breaking through Yijing was very calm. He neither wanted to take advantage of the situation to take Youzhou, nor did he intend to send troops east, as if he was listening to an insignificant matter.

Liu He was somewhat surprised, and wanted to ask, but Tian Chou stopped him with his eyes.

"Wuhuan people and Xianbei people went south with Yuan Shao?"

"Although not all of them, there are more than half of them." Liu He said: "Yuan Shao married several generals of the Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes, married the women of the clan to them, and inherited the system and worshiped as Shanyu, and promised to reward them with great rewards. Quite a barbaric heart."

"Big reward?" Liu Xie chuckled. "Is it the wealth accumulated by the Yuan family over the years, or the blood and sweat of the common people?"

Liu He's eyes flashed. "Your Majesty, most of them are accumulated in the palace."

"In the palace?" The smile on Liu Xie's face froze.He thought for a while, then reacted. "You mean... the money they looted from the palace during the Nangong Incident?"

"Yes... yes." The expression on Liu He's face was a little embarrassed.He had known about this matter for a long time, but he had never mentioned it because too many people were involved, even his father Liu Yu.Liu Yu was farming in Youzhou to appease Han Hu, and he had received funding from Yuan Shao, which probably included the property stolen from the palace by the Yuan Shao brothers.

General He Jin was killed by Xie Shu. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu set fire to the Qingsuo Gate of Jiade Palace in Nangong Palace on the pretext of revenge for He Jin. They looted everything including the Wanjin Hall that Emperor Xiaoling worked so hard to manage.

When Yuan Shao left Luoyang, there were nearly a hundred vehicles, large and small, and the piles of property taken away were like mountains.

After Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he searched the palace again, but his income was limited.His real reward is to dig the imperial tomb.These properties were first collected by Dong Zhuo in Meiwu, and later Dong Zhuo was assassinated, Meiwu was breached, and the property stored inside was also seized. Later, most of them fell into the hands of Li Jue and others, and many of them are now living in Liangzhou.

In the markets of Liangzhou, you can often see beautifully made jade, gold and silver wares, and lacquer wares, most of which are funerary objects dug out of imperial tombs.

However, the history books of later generations only mention Dong Zhuo's looting of Luoyang, and Yuan Shao is not mentioned at all.

Because most of the original materials of history books were written by party members, and Yuan Shao was once the leader whom party members placed high hopes on.

Thinking of Yuan Shao using the wealth accumulated by the royal family to rebel, Liu Xie was very upset.

People around him never mentioned this matter, but some people kept proposing to pardon Yuan Shao and let Yuan Shao enter the court to rule.

His heart can be punished.

Liu Xie suppressed his anger and asked some other questions.

Liu He was shocked while answering.

He originally thought that the emperor would be furious and a little uneasy when he heard that Yuan Shao had bribed the Wuhuan people and Xianbei people with the money he had robbed from the palace.Now that the emperor's reaction was so calm, he was even more disturbed.

He didn't think the emperor would be so generous as to laugh it off.The reason why he is so calm is that there is a city mansion.

After deliberation, Liu He finally made a point.

The factions under Yuan Shao's command had great conflicts, especially the conflicts between the Ruying faction and Jizhou, which could hardly coexist.Yuan Tan and Ruying are inseparable, so the relationship with Jizhou people has not been very good, so that Yuan Shao has the heart of abandoning the elders and establishing the younger, focusing on training the second son Yuan Xi, and doting on the third son Yuan Shang very much.
