Chapter 208: The World is Peaceful
"My lord." Yang Ping looked at Chen Mo who was reading a book with some apprehension, somehow, since the new emperor ascended the throne, Chen Mo's momentum seemed to have begun to become more majestic, even if he smiled very gently, it would make people tremble, this may be called not angry and arrogant.
"No need to be polite." Chen Mo put down the bamboo slip, looked at Yang Ping and said, "What has Your Majesty been doing these days?" ”
"This ......" Yang Ping thought about it carefully and said: "In addition to messing around with Gong E every day, I spend most of my time reading, and occasionally I go to ask Taiwei for knowledge. ”
Chen Mo nodded, seven days have passed since the court meeting, and these days, as Man Zhong entered the court to take over the post of captain, Chen Mo's power in the court has also been consolidated.
In addition, the most thing to do is to let each family report the number of families in the clan, starting from Chen Mo joining the army, every time there is a big chaos, the soldiers of this family account for a large part of it, several families get together, they can gather tens of thousands of horses, especially the Yanzhou Rebellion, which almost overthrew Cao Cao's regime, since then, Chen Mo has been quite jealous of the wealthy families in the territory.
Before Li Tai's rebellion, although it was pacified by Zang Hong, this incident still sounded the alarm for Chen Mo.
If today's son intends to win over the family to fight against him, Chen Mo is not ready to do anything to the Son of Heaven, after all, he is self-established, his majesty, Chen Mo has to help him protect it, especially at this time, if he also comes to abolish the establishment, it will be equivalent to slapping himself in the face, Chen Mo wants to borrow the hand of the Son of Heaven to rectify the wealthy family, and there is no need to destroy the family, but the guests and families of each family, according to the level of their official position, the number of guests who can support them must also be limited, otherwise it will be even more difficult to deal with when they spontaneously develop cholera in the future.
"If you read well, you can be sensible and wise." Chen Mo nodded and said with a smile: "But it is inevitable that Your Majesty has gone astray, you send someone to sort out a book of the books that Your Majesty reads every day, and present them to me every day, and I also need to review them." ”
As for Liu Neng's contact with Yang Biao, Chen Mo didn't pay attention to it, now that the war is over, the place is gradually stabilizing, and in a short period of time, there will be no major incidents, just take the opportunity to sort out the government and politics, and even Chen Mo will encourage these people to make trouble.
As for their plans, Chen Mo believed that Jia Xu would not miss them.
"Whoa!" Yang Ping bowed, saw that Chen Mo had no other instructions, and left.
In the following days, with the return of Cao Cao's class, Sun Ce also left Chen Wu to guard Hefei, and returned to Chaisang, and it can be seen that the current direction of Jiangdong's strategy has shifted from Xuzhou to Jingzhou, temporarily giving up competing with Cao Cao.
And after a big war last year, although Chen Mo won and won the land of Hanoi, but the money and grain accumulated in the past few years have also consumed a lot, in terms of money and food, neither Chen Mo nor Cao Cao can support a protracted war, and the scale like last year is a little unbearable to fight in the first half of the year.
Therefore, whether it is Chen Mo or Cao Cao, he does not want to have another war during this time, otherwise, even if he does not want to, I am afraid that he will have to raise taxes, which is likely to break the virtuous circle that has been established with great difficulty, and may even breed public resentment.
As the two strongest princes today, Chen Mo and Cao Cao are unwilling to fight, and Yuan Shao is now busy quelling the rebellion under his rule, plus he has just lost a battle, and obviously has no energy and willingness to start another war, so that most of the world is relatively stable and peaceful, and these three princes choose a truce, even if the other princes want to fight, they will take into account the attitude of the three princes, and therefore, after the Huainan Rebellion was pacified, the world ushered in a rare peace.
All the princes have chosen to recuperate, Chen Mo also ushered in a period of peace, in addition to dealing with official business every day, that is, to accompany his wife and children, the life is also relaxed and comfortable, as for the Son of Heaven, this period of time has also been a lot of peace, probably never saw the opportunity, Chen Mo is in Luoyang, Liu Neng can't do anything if he wants, he reads books every day or plays with the palace ladies, as for the last dynasty, it is good to be able to go to the court about three times a month, it seems to be a little self-defeating.
"Husband, do you really want Jin'er to go to the academy?" General's Mansion, after Chen Mo decided to let Chen Jin go to the academy, Cai Yan was a little reluctant, after all, now under the research of Chen Mo, You Heng and others, the academy has gradually divided into grades, and Luoyang's Tai Academy is the highest level, and Chen Jin can only go to the local academy to study at the beginning, and only after he is recommended by the academy when he is full of local studies can he enter the Tai Academy for further study, which also means that Chen Jin wants to go to the academy and leave Luoyang, if he goes to the academy, he can't come back often, and his son is still so young: "At home, can't the husband teach him too?" ”
With Chen Mo's talent, it should be no problem to teach a child.
"There are some things I can teach, but there are many things in this world that are not available in the books, and he has to learn them himself, and we can't teach them." Chen Mo pinched his slight beard under his chin, shook his head and smiled, but he felt some emotion in his heart, when he entered Luoyang as a boy at the age of fourteen, more than ten years have passed, and the young boy of the year is now almost there, and he has a little less youthful spirit back then, but he is becoming more and more calm, and now his son has reached the age of studying.
"Husband, will you have it?" Cai Yan didn't believe it, Chen Mo gave people the feeling that he could learn anything quickly.
"There are so many things in the world, who can guarantee that they will be able to do so?" Chen Mo smiled and shook his head and said: "This matter of how to get along with people, you and I, as parents, can only guide and guide from the side, but how much can we learn in the end, but he needs to learn it himself, in this general's mansion, which one of them is not respectful when he sees their brothers, but in this way, how can he know how to get along with others?" ”
"After finishing this study, he still needs to go on a study tour to see more people's livelihood and suffering, which will be good for him in the future." Chen Mo smiled.
Chen Jin is his sister-in-law and eldest son, if there is no accident in the future, he will inherit Chen Mo's foundation, even if Chen Mo loves his three children very much, but only one of his own inheritance can inherit it, so he has always attached great importance to Chen Jin's cultivation.
Cai Yan nodded, a little distressed for his son, but he also knew that although Chen Mo loved them on weekdays, on top of the real big things, once Chen Mo made a decision, they couldn't influence Chen Mo.
"Father." Chen Jin carried his bags and came to bid farewell to Chen Mo and Cai Yan.
"Hmm." Chen Mo nodded, looked at his son and said with a smile: "The rules of this academy are set for my father, you, as my son, should abide by the rules of this academy, first go to Xinfeng County School to study for two years, and after you have achieved something, you can go to Chang'an Academy for three years, and then you can go back to Luoyang to enter Taixue, and next year Zheng'er will also go, study and why you study, my father has already told you, I will let Dianman accompany you on this trip, even if it is a companion, it can also act as your escort." ”
"Huh~" Chen Jin nodded respectfully, Chen Mo has taken Chen Jin to experience farming life every year in the past few years, why is this reading, Chen Jin has his own answer in his heart, and Chen Mo will never force him to study, but now, Chen Jin's knowledge is not bad, and he learned it by himself.
"In addition, as a disciple of the academy, if you feel that there are any shortcomings and inappropriateness in the academy, you can tell me when you come back every year, but you can't oppress people with your identity, you have to respect the teacher, what you can learn in this academy can't be given to you by your father, and you can't teach you, so you have to rely on yourself to comprehend." Chen Mo looked at Chen Jin and said with a smile: "After you learn from Taitai, you can enter the office." ”
"Thank you, father!" Chen Jin agreed, a little pleased, in fact, he felt that what he had learned was already good, and he also wanted to enter the office, but he was too young, Chen Mo did not allow him to enter the office too early, two years of county school, three years of county school, and five years of Taixue, this is still the fastest, although it is a little long, but it is also a process of cultivating the mind.
Seeing that after Chen Mo finished speaking, Cai Yan pulled his son to his side, and began to give careful instructions again, compared to Chen Mo's simple words, Cai Yan's instructions were too many, so small that he gave instructions on food, clothing, housing and transportation, and also told him the clothes prepared for his son, the food needed on the road, and what to do when he went to Chang'an.
Originally, Chen Jin didn't have much luggage, except for a few rolls of bamboo slips plus some changes of clothes and money, there was nothing else, but when Chen Jin embarked on the trip early the next morning, there were already two more carts behind him that were specially used to load things.
"Madam, the things in this carriage are enough for a ton of people to arrive in Chang'an, Madame really thinks it is necessary?" Chen Mo looked at the full cart and looked at Cai Yan a little speechlessly.
"When you go out, it's always good to prepare more, in case you encounter a flash flood blocking the road along the way, heavy snow blocking the mountain, the earth dragon turning over, etc., these can also be emergency." Cai Yan nodded, in fact, she had prepared more, but she was rejected by her son.
Flash floods blocking the road? Earth dragon turned over?
Chen Mo looked at Cai Yan in amazement, he had never encountered these things a few times in his life, if his son could encounter them all here, how unlucky would this be?
He has seen his son's luck, and there should be no major events along the way, and his luck is very stable.
"Husband, there is only a pawn on the side, is there something insufficient? If you encounter a bandit robbing the road......" Cai Yan looked at Chen Mo with some concern, although Dian Man has good martial arts and has been on the battlefield, he is only one person after all.
"Madame, don't worry, it just so happens that Gao Shun is going to Chang'an on a business trip this time, and Jin'er will go with Gao Shun." Chen Mo was a little speechless, Guanzhong has been politically clear under his governance in the past two years, and the thieves don't say no, but there will never be on the main road from Luoyang to Chang'an.
But after all, it was his own son, and Chen Mo was actually worried about an accident in his heart, so he specially gave Gao Shun an errand and asked him to go to Guanzhong and take Chen Jin with him along the way, which was definitely not a special order.
