Chapter 116: The Girl in the Black Dress

Liu Chang lay on the bed again, and Liu Hui smeared medicine on the side again.

"Eldest brother... I think it's more appropriate to tie up a few imperial physicians than to tie up the Hou to go to the Tang Kingdom. ”

"What am I doing with the Imperial Doctor's Order? No one in Tang Guo dared to beat me! ”

"That's right..."

Liu Hui shook his head and said, "But it's not good to say, the queen mother is so busy, she can find time to beat you, maybe she can go to Tang Kingdom to beat you in the future..."

"Tang Kingdom, that's my territory! It's my grandmother who is here... Forehead... Of course, you can still beat... But she at least has to look at the face of the ministers to fight lightly, isn't she? ”

"Eldest brother, now Huainan is divided into two, Tang is the largest vassal state, there are more than 100,000 people, and eight or nine counties, can draw out 200,000 armor soldiers at any time, Shangdang, Taiyuan, Daiwo thousands of miles, Yanmen Yunzhong Jiuyuan is piled up with countless ordnance, Shangjun cattle and sheep are innumerable, and there are many horse farms... You don't have to worry about it..."

"I heard that after Zhang Gong took office, he exempted the Tang State from taxes for three years, appointed capable officials, cultivated land, opened mines and smelted iron, and expelled the Xiongnu plundering army in Yanmen three times. Why should you do that? ”

"It's all rumors!"

"My master sent me a letter a few days ago, the letter said that the poor people in the Tang Kingdom can't even afford to repair the palace, and the house he lives in is made of thatch, and it will leak when it rains, which is already the best house in the Tang Kingdom, as for the people of the Tang Kingdom, they live..."

Liu Hui didn't believe this at all, when his father pacified the world, most of the people of Zhao and Qin fled to Taiyuan and other places, and some simply went directly into the mountains, and waited until the end of the war to come out, and the land opened up was countless, and later in order to resist the Huns, my father continued to strengthen the city defense of Yanmen and Yunzhong, hoarded materials, and moved the surrounding people here several times to develop the Tang land, how can you say so exaggerated?

Seeing that Liu Hui didn't believe it, Liu Chang was very angry, took out Zhang Cang's letter and handed it to Liu Hui to read.

Liu Hui hurriedly finished reading it, dumbfounded, Chang really didn't lie!

Could it be that all the rumors about the Tang Kingdom are false? Is Tang really poor to such a point??

"You know now... My brother is going to Liang Kingdom, how good it is there, the people are rich and rich, but my Tang Kingdom is so miserable... If Tang Guo was like Liang Guo, I wouldn't do such a thing as kidnapping Liuhou! ”

Hearing Liu Chang's complaint, Liu Hui said helplessly: "Alas, eldest brother, don't worry, I heard that there is still a lot of grain in the treasury of Liang State, I will write to Minister Liang Guo to see if I can spare some and send it to Tang State..."

"Brother! I, the people of Datang, will never forget your great kindness! ”

"No thanks... It's just that why does everyone say that the Tang Kingdom is rich? ”

"Hmph, it's just that some villains watch the Tang Kingdom suffer, but they don't want to be generous, so they spread rumors, they just don't want to help the people of the Tang Dynasty!"

In the evening, Empress Lu returned to Jiaofang Hall again, and at this moment, she had completely walked out of the state when Liu Bang left, probably because she beat Liu Chang hard, she looked energetic, and returned to her previous appearance. She kept a straight face, and Liu Chang lay on the side and bowed his head to cook.

"Audacious... How dare you attack Liuhou? ”

"It's not... Auntie, you've beaten it all, and what are you doing with all these old things..."

"Do you know how much impact it would have if you did it? If you treat meritorious people like this, how will you recruit talented people to work for you in the future? ”

"All tied... Well, my mother is right, I was wrong. ”

"Fortunately, there is Wuyang Hou, and I didn't let you make a bigger mistake."

"What, that Wuyang Hou was deliberately left behind by Liuhou... He's already seen my thoughts... Such talents... Alas, my father does, why don't I? ”

Looking at Liu Chang's grinning appearance, Empress Lu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Tomorrow, you bring gifts to visit Liuhou." ”

"Don't be rude to Liuhou again, otherwise... I have to bury you next to your father!! Did you hear that?! ”

"Oh...."

........

The next day, Liu Chang dragged his sick body and went to see Zhang Liang with a cart full of gifts.

Zhang Liang didn't mean to blame at all, and went out to greet him with a smile.

Liu Chang saluted seriously, "I was messing around before, and I hope to stay and forgive my sins!" ”

"Being so valued by King Tang, how can the minister blame him? Please come in..."

Zhang Liang did not despise Liu Chang like others, but treated him with the attitude of treating the princes and kings, which made Liu Chang very happy, and at the same time, the idea of wanting to stay as a marquis became stronger and stronger, he begged: "Liuhou, come and help me... I will definitely listen to all your plans, the Huns are powerful, please help me..."

Zhang Liang stroked his beard, "I'm old and frail, I really can't follow the king to the Tang Kingdom..."

Liu Chang's face was melancholy, and Zhang Liang said again: "But... If something happens to the king, you can write to me for help, and if I can help, I will not refuse. ”

"Really??"

Liu Chang's eyes lit up, remote strategist, this is not bad!

"Can you teach me strategy, then?"

"Everything can be learned, but strategy cannot be taught, it all depends on the individual..."

"However, the king doesn't need me to teach, I see the king's strategy, the plan is very cautious, if there is no Wuyang Marquis, I'm afraid that I am already on the road at the moment, and the queen is bound to cover up for you, saying that she sent me to the Tang Kingdom to cultivate.... With Zhang Cang's character, he won't let me go... The king's strategy seems to be reckless, but it is very thoughtful. ”

"Hahaha, that's not it! The widow has no last resort, both civil and military! Although Zhong Leyi can't be compared! ”

Liu Chang immediately grinned.

Zhang Liang didn't refute, just looked at Liu Chang quietly.

Only then did Liu Chang notice the young man standing behind Zhang Liang, this young man's face was very similar to Zhang Liang, Liu Chang asked, "Is this the eldest son of the Marquis?" ”

Zhang Liang scolded: "Don't you want to meet the king? ”

Zhang Budo hurriedly saluted, "Don't doubt meet the king!" ”

"It's a good name, no doubt, no doubt... Don't doubt it, have you ever studied? ”

Liu Chang raised the posture of an elder and asked with a big grin.

Zhang Budo's heart trembled, and he replied: "I haven't read too many books..."

"Okay, it's useless to read too much, it's enough to know a rough idea of reading, that's how it is for widows!"

Zhang Budo was even more frightened, and didn't dare to answer, for fear that he would be the next person to be tied up.

Zhang Liang stroked his beard and said: "Although I am old, this son is strong, if the king does not give up, I can send this son to the Tang Kingdom and give him a humble official position at will..."

"Huh? All right! All right! The son of the marquis, how can he be a humble official, I should think that I am a sacrifice! ”

Liu Changxi is overjoyed.

Zhang Budo's eyes widened, and he looked at his father on the side, you don't want to go, and you can't just sell me?? What a pit!!

Zhang Liang said disdainfully: "How can this son be worthy of being a sacrificer? If you can feed a horse for the king, it's almost there. ”

Zhang Budo was about to cry, his face full of grievances.

Liu Chang also suddenly felt bad in his heart, and asked a little suspiciously: "This... Why does Liuhou look down on this son so much? ”

"The king did not know that when this son was born, the world was undecided, and I did not teach it myself. He has also read a lot of books, and he is not stupid, but he has a short-tempered personality, is self-willed, and can't be a strategist, only too guarded.... If the king wants to use him, do not listen to his counsel. ”

When Liu Chang heard the sentence of Tai Shou Zhicai, he waved his hand and said: "The son of Liuhou will definitely be extraordinary, I will invite my brother today and ask him to be my housekeeper!" ”

Zhang Liang didn't say anything more, invited Liu Chang to have a meal, and then sent him away.

After Liu Chang left, Zhang Budo asked aggrievedly: "Father loves Bibi alone, why do you hate me?" ”

"If you don't do evil... It's just that you have a short-tempered and reckless personality, and you are far less calm than your brother... Previously, I didn't let you hold an official position, just because of your character, I was worried about whether you would make a big mistake due to impulsiveness in the future, such as today, the Tang King is the best use of people, you follow him, I can rest assured, you don't have to worry about the matter of staying in the land, just follow the Tang King with peace of mind. ”

"Your character, not suitable for the Central Plains, in the frontier, may be able to make a difference."

Zhang Budo was very unconvinced, but in the face of the strong father, he couldn't resist, but said seriously: "In the future, I will definitely ask my father face to face to see whose merits are greater between me and Biyi!" ”

Zhang Liang stroked his beard and did not answer.
