In the third year of Qianyou, in the month of Layue, there were rumors in Beijing, saying that the king of Taiyuan, the northern capital stayed behind, and Liu Chong, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, had hidden dissenting ambitions and suffered from the imperial court.

The government and the opposition and the people, there were many discussions, and Liu Chengyou, the son of heaven, was furious when he heard it, and he was furious in the Chongzheng Palace, saying that there were people with bad intentions, and there were treacherous and evil people, and they wanted to leave the court and Hedong.

Immediately summoned Wu Dezheng's deputy envoys Li Shaoyou and Wang Jingchong, and ordered the two to investigate and deal with the matter and arrest the people who spread the rumors. Subsequently, the Wude Division went out to investigate the matter, and even the newly formed Wude Battalion was also a soldier, and hundreds of people were arrested before and after, and the movement was very loud, and the Tokyo capital, which had been stable for a long time, was in turmoil for a while.

It's just that in the past few years, Wu Desi, who investigated and investigated the case, pushed and questioned the crime, and was invincible, suddenly became inefficient in this matter, arrested many people, and got nothing after all. It was Liu Chengyou, the Son of Heaven, who calmed down from his anger in time and ordered all the innocents to be released, and to pay money to settle the people's grievances.

Subsequently, Liu Chengyou wrote a "Letter to the Emperor's Uncle" with the Chinese scholar and the intellectual system of Tao Gu, which showed all the things in Beijing, the writing was smooth, the feelings were abundant, and the feelings of uncles and nephews were fully expressed, the friendship between monarchs and ministers, and the hearts of the whole mind.

He also summoned the emperor's uncle Murong Yanchao into the palace, talked with him, and then appointed him as a consolation envoy to Hedong, and went north to Jinyang for the Son of Heaven to worship the heavens and ancestors. In addition, it was to bring the emperor's letters and a large number of royal rewards to Liu Chong.

Murong Yanchao, since the beginning of last year, after the case of Liu Xin, the emperor's uncle of Xuzhou, has been staying in Tokyo for almost two years, even if the grounding date given to him by Liu Chengyou has passed, he has no intention of returning to Yunzhou. Instead, he did business in Tokyo, bought a lot of property, earned a large share of the family property, and "developed" his business talent.

As for the Yunzhou side, at the beginning, he was appointed as a shogunate, but later he didn't care about it at all. Up to now, although Yunzhou is still a festival town, both soldiers and horses and government affairs have been controlled by military and political generals directly dispatched by the imperial court. In the process of Liu Chengyou's careful and cautious "de-moderation" of the locality, Yunzhou's side has almost been completed in one step.

Probably in view of this, Liu Chengyou is a little laissez-faire about Murong Yanchao in Tokyo, compared to him harming the government and people locally, using his status privileges to do some business in Tokyo, which is not a big deal at all.

And Murong Yanchao is a person, saying that he is vulgar, proud, greedy, and lustful, which is not too much at all, but there is one point, which is quite interesting, especially when facing Liu Chengyou, the imperial nephew.

The rumors in Tokyo were also heard, and there were also speculations about the intention of the Son of Heaven to entrust him with an errand, so he directly packed the ticket and was ordered to go north to Hedong.

When Murong Yanchao went north, Liu Chengyou's actions followed, first, he distributed the "Letter to the Emperor's Uncle" to the people; second, Yang Ye, who has not been in Tokyo for a month, was urgently ordered to return to Daizhou; third, to send some additional weapons to Jinju; Fourth, the Bishui Army made Bai Chongzan move to Tumen (Jingcheng) and allocated 2,000 troops.

Originally, Bai Chongzan Zhenshui was Shi Hongzhao's idle son when he left the town of Luoyang, and Liu Chengyoubu's idle son basically did not play a role, because Shi Hongzhao almost exerted the value of his "tool man" to the extreme in Luoyang, and a number of lords and wealthy families trembled under his "obscenity". And now, Liu Chengyou has transferred it to Tumen, what is the purpose, the wise man can see it.

In fact, this series of actions is basically Liu Chengyou's response to the situation in Hedong, while appeasing Huairou, he did not forget to scare the grass and scare the snake, knock on the mountain and shock the tiger.

If Liu Chong is antipathetic at this time, Liu Chengyou believes that it is not as exaggerated as Wang Jingchong's report. If it is said that he is of one heart and one mind with the imperial court, it is impossible, to Liu Chong's status, coupled with the policies of the imperial court, and the influence of his character, it is inevitable that he will be suspicious of the imperial court.

And Liu Chengyou has passed many measures, what he wants to tell Liu Chong is. I have an uncle-nephew relationship with Uncle Huang, and I will have no intention of harming each other, please don't worry about Uncle Huang. But if the imperial uncle really made a move out of suspicion, then the court was not unprepared and had already been on guard.

With Liu Chong's mind, it may be a little difficult to sort out the stakes, but Liu Chengyou heard that his festival judge Zheng Heng and Taiyuan Shaoyin Li Xiang are knowledgeable talents, and they think it will make Liu Chong more vigilant.

Liu Chengyou's main purpose is to stabilize Hedong and let him not come out to make trouble when his great cause is started. He also knew in his heart that the trouble in Hedong was serious and serious, but if it really reached the point of trouble for his henchmen, it would not be enough.

The problem of Hedong is a problem left over from history, and its mountains and rivers are victorious, coupled with the rise and fall of three generations, which are destined to be difficult for those who rely on it. But for Liu Chengyou, the crux of the problem is only for the emperor's uncle Liu Chong.

As for Hedong itself, in addition to geographical advantages, population, land, cities, and taxes ...... The war potential was exhausted as early as Li Cunqiao, Shi Jingjiao, and Liu Zhiyuan, who tried their best to advance into the Central Plains. Up to now, that corner of Hedong has no strength to independently resist the imperial court.

In the original history, the reason why Liu Chong was able to base Hedong to resist the Later Zhou. First, there is the "righteousness" of inheriting the temple of the Later Han Dynasty, although Guo Wei led the army into Beijing in the name of "Qing Jun's side", the essence of seeking the dynasty to usurp the throne has not changed; In the two, the country was not right, the civil strife continued, Guo Wei was busy pacifying the towns, and he couldn't spare his hand to deal with Liu Chong; The three naturally have the support of the Khitan, and the "country of uncles and nephews" can be regarded as setting an example for the Southern Song Dynasty of the Longxing Peace Conference.

As for the emperor's uncle Liu Chong, it's not that Liu Chengyou looks down on him, no matter his governance, use of soldiers, power schemes, or fame, he is only a Chinese person, and he can have his current status, even if he is not fortunate to have a good baby, he has to thank him for having a good brother.

If he really wants to deal with Liu Chong and do something to him, it is not Liu Chengyou conceited, and in a few moments, he can come up with several strategies. It's just that the time has not yet come.

In order to conquer the south, Liu Chengyou has been boiling for two years and preparing for two years, and he intends to implement a thorough defensive strategy against the Khitan, how can he expand the Hedong problem at this juncture.

In addition, Liu Chong accumulated a lot of soldiers, horses, money and grain in Hedong, and he only needed to take them down one day, so that after years of accumulation, he would once be obtained by the imperial court. The grievances of the people accumulated by it can be solved with an edict, and the imperial court will gain real benefits, and the Son of Heaven will "destroy his relatives with righteousness", and he will be famous.

The clever calculation is exhausted, Uncle Liu Huang of Hedong, for Liu Chengyou, the son of the Han Dynasty, is more like a fat pig than a scourge, raised in a pigsty, waiting to be slaughtered......

However, the development of events is not entirely dependent on Liu Chengyou's will, even if he is the emperor. On the issue of Hedong, in which direction it will develop next, it depends on Liu Chong.

Of course, the temple is exhausted, and on Liu Chengyou's side, even if Liu Chong is really reversed, he also has to deal with the draft.

With the current stable situation in the Han Dynasty, the stability of the court, the refinement of the army, and the prestige of the center, Liu Chengyou does not think that Liu Chong can shake the Han world with a corner of Hedong. And the subordinate states of Hedong, Liu Chong's influence is not necessarily greater than that of the imperial court, once Jin Yang rebels, where their hearts are, Liu Chengyou is confident.

Now, Liu Chengyou just wants to try his best to avoid the outbreak of the Hedong issue and delay his strategic plan.

"Uncle Huang! You must not be hot-headed...... "No matter what, this is Liu Chengyou's most heartfelt expectation for Liu Chong.
