Yuan Shao went south to the Central Plains, but Yuan Tan was left in northern Hebei.
He didn't mention that he had persuaded Yuan Tan to stay in northern Hebei.
Liu Xie knew that Yuan Shao loved his youngest son, Yuan Shang, and knew that Yuan Xi was going to marry Zhen Mi, but he didn't know that Yuan Shao didn't like Yuan Tan because of the influence of the Ruying clan, let alone that Yuan Tan had such a close relationship with the party members.After listening to Liu He's introduction, the logic finally made sense.
However, he didn't have a good impression of party members, nor was he interested in contacting Yuan Tan, so he didn't answer Liu He's topic.
In Liu He's view, this is another manifestation of the emperor's presence in the city.
After talking for a long time, Liu Xie asked Tian Chou to lead Liu He to rest.He had traveled a long distance to this point, and he had to rest for a few days before he could recover his strength and accept the assessment.As for whether Tian Chou will ask Zhao Yun to teach Liu He martial arts, that is not something Liu Xie has to consider.
Since it was decided to let Liu He be the right governor of Sanqi, this kind of thing is inevitable.
Liu He and Tian Chou left, and Liu Xie turned to Beigong Dashi who had not spoken.
"Let the handsome laugh."
Beigong Dashi shook his head. "Your Majesty is serious. The Han people are fighting among themselves, and the Qiang people are no exception. They are even more cruel and frequently exterminate the clan. In fact, this has nothing to do with the Han people or the Qiang people. As long as they are human beings, they are all the same."
He raised his head and looked at Liu Xie solemnly. "Your Majesty is only 17 years old, and it is really difficult to suffer such hardships. Your Majesty can not be discouraged, but become stronger. This is the character that only a legendary hero can have. After listening to these stories, I am convinced that Your Majesty is a gift from God. To our heroes, you will definitely lead us to live a good life."
"I hope so too." Liu Xie smiled wryly, "But it's really difficult. Do you know why I came to Xihai? I just don't want to see those ministers who echo Yuan Shao. Although they are in the court, their hearts are with Yuan Shao."
"There are many hypocrites in the Kanto people." Beigong Dashi felt sorry for him. "We Qiang people have a deep understanding of this. In the past, in order to give them gifts, we were so worried that we couldn't sleep. In order to let them let us go, even women's jewelry can only be given out."
Chapter 579
Liu He followed Tian Chou and saw many Qiang people along the way.There are men and women, standing together in twos and threes, talking and laughing.Seeing them approaching, they stroked their chests and saluted them.
Tian Chou greeted with a smile.
Liu He was very surprised. "Zitai, do you know so many Qiang people?"
"I don't know, these are the family members of the Qiang leader who came to see you recently, how can I know so many." Tian Chou said with a smile: "It's just that we are both courtiers of the emperor, so we are polite to each other."
"Can the Qiang people be so polite?" Liu He was puzzled when he remembered the vulgar behavior of the emperor just now.
Tian Chou laughed, and then said in a low voice: "Gongheng, you should have seen Wuhuan people and Xianbei people see your father, right?"
"I've seen it." There was a trace of sadness on Liu He's face.
"Could it be that the Qiang people are not as good at etiquette as the Wuhuan people and the Xianbei people?"
Liu He was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "It can't be any stronger."
"You need to change your point of view." Tian Chou glanced back. "This is inconsistent with the edict of the imperial court to educate the Qiang people, and also inconsistent with the facts. Compared with the Wuhuan people and Xianbei people, the Qiang people are closer to the Central Plains Yiguan. Judging from the collected ballads, the Qiang people are the descendants of Emperor Yan. It has the same origin as Liangzhou people, and its history can be traced back to the time when Qin Feizi herded horses in Tianshui, and it is only a thousand years old.”
Liu He couldn't help laughing. "who said it?"
"Don't worry, when you are free, listen to Cai Lingshi's lecture, and you will know what's going on. But I still want to remind you again, this is the great policy of the imperial court to educate the Qiang people and stabilize Liangzhou. Temporary mood."
Liu He nodded and said nothing more.
He walked all the way along the Great Wall, and he knew how much the emperor had spent in order to be stable and cool.After staying in Liangzhou for more than two years, Han Sui was transferred away from Liangzhou. Now is a great opportunity to make a full contribution, so there is no room for loss.
He couldn't help but secretly admired his father Liu Yu's move in ruling Youzhou compared with the current emperor.
It has to be said that the emperor's methods are more sophisticated.
Although Liu Yu treated Wuhuan people and Xianbei people kindly, he never thought of educating them, and the boundaries between Hu and Han were clear.In another 100 years, the Wuhuan people will still be Wuhuan people, and the Xianbei people will still be Xianbei people, and they will not become Han people.
However, according to the method of the Son of Heaven, in two generations, the Qiang people will be indistinguishable from the Han people. From then on, there will only be Liangzhou people, and there will be no difference between the Han and Qiang people.
"The real holy son of heaven." Liu He sighed: "If Xiaowu was able to do this when he attacked the Huns, how can there be Huns now after 300 years? The Huns turned into Han people and guarded the frontiers, so what about Wuhuan and Xianbei? Is there a possibility of prosperity?"
Tian Chou clapped his hands and smiled. "As expected of being the son of the Grand Tutor, you can best understand the meaning of the court. Gongheng, in the near future, you will definitely become the pillar of the great man, worthy of the blood of your father and grandfather."
The two were talking and came to an empty tent.Tian Chou walked into the tent, looked around, turned to Liu He and said, "Gongheng, although the place is simple, it is still clean. You stay here, and I will go get some utensils, especially the armor..."
Liu He stood up straight and bowed solemnly to Tian Chou. "Zitai, thank you."
Tian Chou was a little surprised, and while returning the gift, he smiled and said, "Why thank me?"
"If you hadn't stayed in the line and wrote me a letter, I might not have appeared here." Liu He said: "I believe in your vision, and this is how I have confidence in the imperial court, and I have traveled thousands of miles."
Tian Chou was stunned. "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. You will be more confident when you are doing it."
Liu He nodded again and again.
-
Two days later, Liu Xie summoned Liu He and Tian Chou again to inquire about the situation in the Kanto region.
Liu He and Tian Chou were invited to come and found that Jia Xu and Zhao Yun were also present, and the case was covered with a map of the situation in Kanto, marking several forces.
After a glance, Liu He roughly guessed the theme of the meeting: Xuzhou.
Yuan Shao led the main force to cross the river, entered Yanzhou again, and then swung his troops eastward, pointing to Xuzhou.In the direction of Qingzhou, there is another partial division, which goes south from Beihai Kingdom and goes straight to Langya.
No need to guess, everyone knows that Xuzhou Mu Liu Bei is having a hard time.
Liu Xie cut to the chase. "Gongheng, you are from Donghai and you are familiar with the local situation. Tell me, how long can Liu Bei last?"
"If he doesn't wait for the wind to surrender, he can last for a month or two." Liu He didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Liu Bei is brave, but he doesn't understand the art of war, and he doesn't understand the scriptures. It's not enough either, it's hard to be the front of Yuan Shao's army."
"Will he look forward to the wind?" Liu Xie looked directly at Liu He, with a hint of joy in his calm eyes.
In just two days, Liu He's complexion changed significantly.
He is more calm, without worrying about gains and losses so much, he can express his feelings directly and speak freely.
"Your Majesty, whether to surrender or not is not up to Liu Bei."
"Who is it?"
"The clan in Xuzhou is rich and powerful. They have soldiers and supplies. If they echo Yuan Shao, Liu Bei will definitely not be able to resist them."
Liu Xie turned to Zhao Yun. "Zilong, what's your opinion?"
Zhao Yun bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, I think that if you are poor, you want to change. Although Liu Bei didn't study much, he was kind and righteous and won the hearts of the people. The time between life and death is the time to change the old and reform the old. If the court can offer a heavy reward and inspire new righteousness, Liu Bei's ruler and minister Together, we may not be unable to defend Xuzhou."
"Big reward?" The corner of Liu Xie's mouth twitched slightly. "How to reward? Wanhuhou?"
Zhao Yun stood up and left the table, bowing to the end. "Your Majesty, Liu Bei was originally the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, but it has been a long time ago, and his branches have been sparse. He is not listed in the clan and is no different from the common people. Liu Bei has little ambition and is proud of his blood. Death will be rewarded."
"Really?" Liu Xie smiled even wider.
Zhao Yun lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down on the ground, and bowed again. "Your Majesty is taking the liberty to recommend Liu Bei to the whole family of the Zhao family with the truth."
Liu Xie was slightly startled, and turned to look at Liu He and Tian Chou. "Gongheng, Zitai, what do you think?"
Liu He and Tian Chou exchanged glances with each other, stood up and bowed their hands in greeting. "The minister seconded the proposal."
Tian Chou said again: "Zilong came from thousands of miles away to serve His Majesty. He knows people. Since he believes in Liu Bei, he must have evidence. I would like to recommend Liu Bei with him. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu again. "How do you feel, sir?"
Jia Xu stroked his beard and smiled slightly. "Your Majesty will rejuvenate the great Han, and the real common people will be able to be named Marquis with their merits, let alone the clan. As long as Liu Bei can make great achievements, it should be restored to his clan."
Liu Xie took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
He has never had a good impression of Liu Bei, because although Liu Bei regarded himself as a clan and participated in the Yidai Zhao, his subsequent actions did not show that he had the slightest heart for the Han Dynasty.Before Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty died, Liu Bei hurriedly announced that Cao Pi had killed the king and proclaimed himself emperor.
From the perspective of a bystander, he can agree that Liu Bei is a hero, but he cannot agree that Liu Bei is a loyal minister, only when he is the same as Cao Cao and Sun Quan.
But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had some preconceived ideas, and even criticized the sage.
Liu Bei spent most of his life wandering. It was not until the 13th year of the Chibi War in Jian'an that half of Jingzhou gained a foothold. It was 19 years after Jian'an that Yizhou was established and truly owned his own territory.Before that, he was dependent on others, and even survival was a problem, so how could he have the ability to serve the court.
As for Dai Han, he didn't even dare to have the idea of dividing the world into three parts, so how could he covet imperial power.
In the 13th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao returned to the system of prime minister, and the heart of the Han Dynasty has been clearly revealed.
Considering that at this moment, even Cao Cao and Sun Ce dare not have the heart to replace the Han, it is even more impossible for Liu Bei to have one.
Being able to restore his clan status may be the ceiling he can hope for.
"Just Yizilong." Liu Xie made the final decision.
Give Liu Bei a chance, and give the big man a chance.
Chapter 580
Although he felt that the emperor might accept Zhao Yun's suggestion, Liu He was still a little surprised to see that the emperor made a decision after pondering for a while.
He suddenly understood why the Son of Heaven didn't take the veterans on tour, and sent the Sangong far away, one in Meiji, one in Guanzhong, and one in Yizhou.
As long as there is one person here, it is impossible for him to act so vigorously.
Restoring clan status is by no means such a simple matter, even if it is just a promise.
Among other things, just by Zhao Yun's words, can it be determined that Liu Bei is the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan?The surname Liu does not mean that it is of royal blood.
For non-clan members, no matter how great their contributions are, they can only be named marquises.
The clan can be crowned king, even if the credit is not great.
If Liu Bei can restore his clan status, it not only means that he has changed from a commoner to a royal family, but also has the opportunity to become a king.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a step up to the sky.
Envious, Liu He's heart beat faster.
Since Liu Bei, who has already left the clan, can restore the clan with his military exploits, wouldn't my clan that is still in the clan have a better chance?If you can make great contributions, it is possible to restore the king in the future.
Liu He involuntarily glanced at the emperor, just in time to meet Liu Xie's meaningful gaze.He immediately understood what Liu Xie meant, and his blood rushed to his head in an instant, his face flushed red.
"Zilong, you said just now that you offered a big reward to inspire a new meaning. What is the explanation for this new meaning?"
Zhao Yun smiled slightly. "Your Majesty, just now Gongheng said that the person who rules Xuzhou is not Liu Bei, but the great clan of Xuzhou. I don't agree with you."
Liu He was still immersed in the excitement, and he didn't take Zhao Yun's words as a disobedience. He smiled and cupped his hands and said, "I hope to hear from Zilong."
"Your Majesty decides to be Bingliang, is it because of the Bingliang family?" Zhao Yun said with a smile, indescribably calm. "I heard that even in Hedong, the rich clan of Hedong respects His Majesty and stays far away. However, this does not prevent His Majesty from setting his capital in Anyi and reviving the Han Dynasty. Guan Yu has always been in touch with Liu Bei. He is in Hedong, and he has always been sympathetic to villains. How can you turn a blind eye to His Majesty's new policies? I think that he will definitely tell Liu Bei what he has seen and heard."
Zhao Yun turned to Liu Xie, cupped his hands and said, "If Liu Bei can carry out the new policy in Xuzhou and spread His Majesty's virtues widely, even if the big clan in Xuzhou is obsessed with their obsession, how can the people be unshakable? If the people gather, why worry about having no soldiers and no food?"
"Wonderful." Liu He suddenly realized that he couldn't help applauding, but then he realized that he had lost his composure, and hurriedly handed over his hand to make amends.
Liu Xie is also very satisfied.
Zhao Yun is courageous and resourceful, and he can also understand his intentions.
"Although there is good government, there should be people who govern." Liu Xie said, "Who is good at government affairs around Liu Bei?"
Zhuge Liang is still in Longzhong, and Zhao Yun and Guan Yu have left Liu Bei. There are only a handful of talents around Liu Bei, so you can't count on Zhang Fei to carry out the New Deal?Who else is there, Liu Xie really doesn't know.
Zhao Yun shook his head with a helpless expression.
There are only a few talents around Liu Bei, Zhang Fei is a strong general, Jian Yong is a strategist, but there is no one who is proficient in government affairs.I don't know if he has recruited suitable talents after he arrived in Xuzhou.
Liu He thought for a while, then cupped his hands and said, "The minister recommends one person, from Tan County in the East China Sea, Wang Lang Wang Jingxing."
"Wang Lang?" Liu Xie thought about it, and felt that it was not very reliable.That is a great Confucianism, can you agree with the New Deal?
Liu He seemed to know what Liu Xie was worried about, and said with a smile: "Although Wang Lang is a Confucian, he studied under the former Taiwei Yang Ci and has a heart of love for the people. When he was the prefect of Kuaiji, he was quite competent."
Liu Xie's heart skipped a beat.
Yang Ci is Yang Biao's father.Although the Yang family of Hongnong is a top-notch family, their family style is different from that of the Yuan family in Runan, and they are still sympathetic to the people at the bottom.Yang Biao and Yang Xiu can quickly adjust their thinking and support the New Deal, which has a certain relationship with the Yang family tradition.
Since Wang Lang is Yang Ci's disciple, his thinking must be influenced by Yang Ci.Coupled with Yang Biao's relationship, it is still possible to accept the New Deal.
More importantly, Wang Lang is a celebrity in Xuzhou, and his shouting from the top is more effective than Liu Bei's shouting.
"What do you think sir?" Liu Xie once again asked Jia Xu for his opinion.
"I think it's feasible." Jia Xu said: "When I was a man in Luoyang, I met Wang Lang. He is refined and courteous, tolerant and generous. He often helps the poor, even if he doesn't know each other. If this person can help Liu Bei, to carry out the New Deal in Xuzhou, will surely achieve something."
"If that's the case, then it's settled." Liu Xie said, and then ordered someone to draft an imperial edict and send it to Xuzhou as quickly as possible.
Seeing this, Liu He clicked his tongue.
The emperor's respect for Jia Xu is a bit out of the ordinary, almost obedient.
Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I would like to add a few words."
"Sir, please speak."
"The situation is urgent, and there is no room for calm implementation. A reward is offered to Yiming, so that the soldiers will have no worries and hope to do their best."
With a thought in Liu Xie's mind, he roughly guessed what Jia Xu wanted to say.But he didn't say anything, and motioned Jia Xu to continue.
Seeing that Liu Xie did not object, Jia Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "I think that rewards can be announced in Xuzhou, those who have made great achievements can be promoted to ranks, and those who have made little achievements can also be given land and houses. In this way, if we can make all people unite, we can fight against Yuan Shao together."
