Before Liu Xun went to bed, Weiyang Palace was already covered by goose feathers and heavy snow, and this snow fell for a whole night.

When the next day dawned, the entire Chang'an City seemed to have become a world of ice and snow.

In the Jianzhang Palace, the lake of Penglai Pavilion was completely frozen and turned into a frozen lake.

Standing in the attic of Penglai Pavilion, wearing a fox fur coat and a pair of delicate cashmere gloves on his hands, Liu Xun looked down on the entire palace.

"Han Zeng's song, when will he come back?" Liu asked Huang Xie behind him.

"Your Majesty, it should be soon......," Huang Xie replied cautiously.

Since the news of the defeat of the Che Cavalry General in the Tianshan Mountains came back to Chang'an, Liu Xun's mood became quite bad and terrible.

After all, before that, Liu Xun had been listening to good news every day, thinking that everything would be as he expected.

Either today's cavalry army outwitted the Huns' baggage, or tomorrow's chariot cavalry elite cavalry surprise attack Qiuzi.

In the battle report, flowers were blown out.

The generals and colonels of the chariot cavalry army, at first glance, are either possessed by Han Xin, or Sun Wu is reincarnated, it is simply a god who uses soldiers like a god, and he has no last resort!

The Huns were beaten all over the ground by them in the Western Regions, and at that time, there was a cheerful atmosphere inside and outside the court.

"The Sword Comes"

The chariot riders in the middle of the court are looking at people with their nostrils every day.

Liu Xun himself is proud and proud of his knowledge, after all, the Zhang family is his hardcore cronies.

As a result, it quickly reversed in just half a month!

At first, it was just news of a 'small setback in riding'.

As a result, the final battle report shows, what kind of small setback is this?

The Hexi Army, the Gao Yun Army, and the Juyan Duwei, the absolute elite of these three Hexi armies, suffered thousands of battle losses, and the rest were all frostbitten, which was almost equivalent to the withdrawal of the Han army from the battle sequence.

Forget it, the key is to let the main force of the Huns run!

If it was the main force of the Xiongnu royal court that ran away, it would be forgivable, the key is that it was only the Western Regions part of the Xiongnu that ran away.

In particular, just before that, he benefited from Zhang Pengzu and others who blew too much, so that everyone inside and outside Chang'an City knew that this time the general of the chariot cavalry was only facing a part of the Huns, and with the power of the chariot and cavalry, he could be killed with one finger.

As a result, it is now a slap in the face.

And now Liu Xun needs face the most!

Whoever makes him lose face, he will make whoever has no head!

This has been proven by countless facts, the law of iron!

Therefore, in the past ten days, there has been a lot of noise in Chang'an City, and Wei Xiang and other Che Rider allies have been shocked three times a day, for fear that one day they will be arrested by Ti Cai.

And the others are also worried, for fear that they will do something wrong and touch Liu Xun's moldy head and be used as a tool to vent their anger.

The atmosphere in Chang'an was a little dull.

Even Liu Xun's close ministers like Huang Xie can only speak cautiously, and they dare not be the slightest bit imprudent.

"Your Majesty......" At this time, Huo Shan's voice came from under the attic: "General Yingyang is sparse!" ”

After a while, Huo Shan held a secret report sealed in a bamboo tube with mud, walked up to the attic, came to Liu Xun, and bowed down to present it.

Liu Xun turned around and looked at the secret report in Huo Shan's hand, and finally showed a long-lost smile on his face, and even his tone was a little relaxed: "Han Zeng."

What are the new discoveries in Hehuang? ”

Hearing this, Huang Xie and Huo Shan both looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel a little envious, jealous and hateful in their hearts.

But at the same time, I have to admire that Shang Shuling in my heart!

The ......

It's really the king of the sycophant world!

Even if he went to Hehuang, he could do things every once in a while, making Liu Xun smile knowing thousands of miles away.

For example, half a month ago, Han Zeng sent people back to Beijing and sent some grassroots that looked like insects, these seemingly inconspicuous things, but Liu Xunlong's face was happy, and he shouted: If all the ministers in the world are like prime ministers, Shangshu Ling, what do I do?

If that Han Zeng was just a sycophant of Liu Xun, Huo Shan and Hu Jiande would not be too jealous.

After all, Liu Xun is still young today, and they have opportunities.

But Han Zeng is still very good at managing forces!

It was only a month since he went to Hehuang, and the ministers of the DPRK and China praised each other, and they all said: Shangshu Lingguo, the pillar of the country, is worthy of the Han family, and those who prosper the Han Dynasty must be Han!

Among these people, there are even a large number of large numbers of people who used to rarely speak out in the court, and have retired, regardless of the old ministers, nobles, and relatives of the court.

Even those who were extremely hostile and hateful to them in the past.

Why?

The answer is - when Han Zeng went to Hehuang at the suggestion of the Son of Heaven, he took away hundreds of nobles, ministers, and children of wealthy merchants.

Now, these families, every few days, up to 10 days, receive a report from the Hexi government office.

The report will describe and introduce in detail the manor occupied by the family, the slaves and maids obtained, the water and soil, the development situation, and the progress.

In addition to these, there will be forecasted earnings figures for the coming year on the report.

And who doesn't like these things?

Especially those veteran ministers who have retired, just watching the hundreds or thousands of gold that they originally invested casually have now become a cornucopia of stable income of tens, millions, or even tens of millions of dollars every year.

That one is not happy, that one is not happy?

And no one can hate the God of Wealth.

As a result, the minister of Chang'an suddenly discovered that although Shang Shuling was not in Chang'an, Chang'an's political affairs seemed to be inseparable from him.

Those to the old ministers, the old ministers, other things will not, yin and yang weird talking, complaining, but very good at it!

Moreover, because he is an old minister, what he said carries a lot of weight!

At least in the eyes of public opinion.

After all, respecting the old and loving the young is the universal value of the Han Empire.

The more this is the case, the more jealous the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee are of Shang Shuling.

Especially at the moment when Zhang Anshi Group is about to hit the street, the Shangshu Department has been revealed, and it has become a thorn in the side of countless people, a thorn in the flesh!

There's no way around it!

Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind!

After all, the country's top resources and locations are limited.

However, it is very likely that in the future, through the relationship between His Majesty's henchmen, the Shangshu Department will easily occupy most of them!

The meat will be eaten up, and they will be hungry

How can a man whose eyes will be green not be jealous, how can he not hate?

Therefore, in the Chang'an market, black materials and gossip of Shangshu Ling Han Zeng began to appear.

Although for the time being, it seems that they are all innocuous little things.

It seems like it's just boring people.

However, almost all of its points directly point to Shang Shuling's character, cultivation and private morality.

Even back then, the case of the Huang family was re-opened, and some materials were compiled, and there was a tendency to guide it in the direction of 'deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors'.

There are a lot of other lascivious materials that forcibly rob other people's wives and concubines.

This brainwashing bag doesn't look like much now.

However, if there is a need in the future, it may become an arrow and a sharp blade to attack General Ying Yang at any time.

In China, the issue of character and morality is one of the deadliest attacks.

It's even more terrible than a loss of public morality!

Thinking of these things in his heart, Huo Shan quietly raised his head and looked at Liu Xun.

saw Liu Xun's face, which was a little strange.

He hurriedly lowered his head and continued to look at his nose and his nose, and at the same time pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the sounds around him.

After a long time, I heard Liu Xun suddenly laugh: "Shang Shuling, it's really ...... Flim tongue! ”

Liu Xunyang handed the secret report in his hand to Huo Shan and said, "Huo Shan, you can also take a look!" ”

Huo Shan hurriedly bowed his head and stepped forward, knelt down to take the note handed by Liu Xun, and then spread it in front of him, and read it in a low voice: "Shangshu ordered the ministers to increase their ignorance and then worship His Majesty the Emperor: Your Majesty is kind, so that the ministers will be able to walk in the river and the counties, proclaim and appease the counties of the state, and inspect the places. However, the ministers have served in the middle of the curtains, and they have seen His Majesty working hard in the world, and he is uneasy, and he pities the people to forget himself, and he is degraded by food and pleasure, which is beyond the reach of the three kings and the five emperors! Compared with His Majesty's hard work, what is the regret of the minister's humble body? As for the river Huang, it is a dream of sleeping at night, thinking of His Majesty's entrustment, proclaiming the Yue's and Zhuqiang's affairs, moving them with affection, knowing them with reason, announcing His Majesty's education in Yidi, and sowing Liu Xun's benevolence and virtue outside the desert, so the Yue's tribes are grateful and ashamed of their own injuries, and they are willing to move to a remote place in Hehuang to punish themselves for the betrayal of the past, and the Qiang clan also came down thousands of miles to pay tribute to their cattle, sheep and livestock, in order to offer His Majesty, and the ministers then reclaimed the fields, built channels, raised ravines, built roads, and built barns in the middle of the river, and there were Yidi three thousand miles away, Feeling the kindness of His Majesty, thousands of miles to help, there are people who have been tattooed, hearing His Majesty's teachings, voluntarily come to vote, from it, the river Huang everything is initially decided, the minister is holding the festival in the west of the river, seeing the difficulties of the people's livelihood, seeing the suffering of the people, sadness from the heart, sorrow from the heart, sorrow from the gods...... I beg your Majesty to declare benevolence and virtue in the west of the river, and sow rain and dew in the mountains and rivers......"

Reading these words, Huo Shan only felt extremely strange in his mind.

He carefully put down the song, lowered his head, and asked, "Your Majesty, what is the holy will?" ”

"Han Zeng understands the local suffering, and he has grown up, so he can be a gentleman, and he knows that he feels sorry for ......the people and worries about national affairs," Liu Xun said meaningfully: "What does Shang Shuling think?" ”

Huo Shan listened, and there were only three words MMP in his heart!

Child?

God's special child!

If Han Zeng was a child, wouldn't he still be wearing pigtails and wouldn't even be able to speak?

However......

The world is big, Liu Xun is the biggest, since Liu Xun said that he is a child, then Han Zeng must and can only be a child who does not understand the world, but is full of sincerity.
