Volume 11 Han Ji III (6)
The emperor said, "I have heard that those who enter the sage are rewarded. Although Xiao Hegong's merit is high, the power of the Ejun can be more revealed, so because of the food of Eqianqiu, he was named the Marquis of Anping. On that day, there were more than ten fathers and sons and brothers, all of whom had food. and sealed 2,000 households for Xiao He.
The emperor returned to Liyang.
On the afternoon of May in the summer, the prince was honored as the emperor.
At first, the Xiongnu were afraid of Qin and migrated north for more than ten years. and Qin was destroyed, and the Xiongnu tried to quietly cross the river and move south again. Shan Yu Touman, there is the prince Maoton. Later, he favored Yu and gave birth to a young son. Touman will set him up. At that time, Donghu was strong and Yue's was prosperous, so Maodun was the quality of Yue's. Soon Touman rushed to attack the Yue Clan. The Yueshi wanted to kill Maodun, but Maodun stole his good horse and fled back to the Xiongnu. Touman made him strong, and made him ride ten thousand. Mao Dun is a chirping and practicing riding and shooting. The order said: "Wherever the Ming Di shoots, if it does not follow, it will be beheaded." "Maudun shoots his good horse with a chirping hammer, and then shoots his beloved wife, and whoever dares not shoot on the left and right shall be beheaded. In the end, he shot a single horse with a ringing di, and there were no people who dared to shoot on the left and right. Mao Dun knew that it was available, and hunted from the head man, shooting the head man with the Ming Di, and shooting the left and right with the Ming Di, so he killed the head man. punish his stepmother, his brother, and his ministers for not obeying,
Maudun became self-reliant. Donghu Wen Mao stood up, wanting to get the first man's Maxima. Mao Dun asked the ministers, and the ministers all said: "This is the BMW of the Huns, don't give it to him." “
Maudun said, "Why should you care about a horse if you are a neighbor?" So, he sent the horse to Donghu.
Soon after, Donghu sent someone to tell Mao Dun that he wanted to get one of Shan Yu's wives. Mao Dun asked left and right, and both left and right were furious and said: "Donghu has no way, and he actually came to ask Mrs. Shan Yu to send troops to attack him." ”
Morton said, "Why do you care about a woman when you live next to a man?" ”
So he gave his beloved wife to Donghu.
King Donghu was even more arrogant. There was an uninhabited abandoned land between Donghu and the Xiongnu, and the envoy of the king of Donghu told Mao Dun that he wanted to own this abandoned land. Mao Dun asked the ministers. Someone said, 'This is a desolate abandoned land, and it is okay to give it to him or not to give it to him.' “
So Maudun was furious and said, "The land is the root of the country. Why give it away? Then he beheaded those who said that they could give it to Donghu. Mao Dun got on his horse and ordered those who came from behind in the country to be beheaded. Then he attacked Donghu, who despised Mao Dun and did not take it seriously. Mao Dun then destroyed Donghu. Both returned and went west to strike away the Yueshi. The south is annoying. Then invaded the Yan Dynasty. The Xiongnu homeland that Meng Tian had invaded was recovered. At that time, the Han soldiers were far away from Xiang Yu, and China was tired of the military revolution, so Mao Dun was able to strengthen himself. There are more than 300,000 people who control the strings. Conquer the nations.
Autumn. The Xiongnu besieged Han at Mayi*. Han sent envoys to seek reconciliation on several occasions, and Han sent troops to rescue him. Suspecting that Han * had not seen the messenger many times and had two hearts, he was instructed to let him. Han * was afraid of being executed, and in September, Yimayi surrendered to the Xiongnu.
Therefore, the Xiongnu Maodun was able to lead troops to pass the sentence note, attack Taiyuan, and go to Jinyang.
The emperor sent the cumbersome and harsh rules of the Qin period, and tried to be simple. The ministers drank and competed for merit, shouted when they were drunk, and drew their swords to hit the pillars. The emperor became more and more tired of them. Shusun Tong said to the emperor: "Confucianism is difficult and enterprising, but it can make him successful." The ministers are willing to recruit the sentient beings of the Lu Kingdom and the disciples of the ministers to formulate a new court,"
The emperor said, "Isn't this thing very difficult to do? ”
Uncle Sun Tong said: "The five emperors are different, and the three kings are different." Etiquette is formulated according to the reality of human feelings, advancing with the times, and the ministers are willing to learn from the ancient etiquette, and refer to the etiquette of the Qin period to formulate a set of realistic and feasible etiquette. ”
The emperor said, "You can try to do it." But to make it easy for him to understand, just think that I can do it. ”
So the uncle sent an envoy to recruit more than 30 Confucian scholars from the Lu State, but two Confucian scholars from the Lu State refused to do it. said: "Mr. did things, more than ten masters before and after, all of them were fortunate because of their clever words. If it is decided today, the dead are not buried, and the wounded are not raised, and the rites and music must be started. It takes a hundred years to accumulate virtue to raise ritual music. I don't want to do what my husband does, so go away and don't tarnish my virtues. ”
Uncle Sun Tong smiled and said, "You are really contemptible, I don't know how the times change." ”
Then he and the thirty men he had recruited went west to Kyoto. There are more than 100 people who study with the emperor, and they set up camps in the suburbs and teach etiquette day and night.
After more than a month, he said to the emperor, "You can try to watch the ceremony." ”
The emperor made them salute and said, "I can do this." ”
So he ordered his ministers to study.
Seven years of winter October. Changle Palace was completed. The princes and ministers all came to congratulate.
