Chapter Seventy-Two: The Study Asks the Right Questions (1)

As the time passed, the warm sunlight of early spring pierced through the windows, sprinkled on the gilded vessels, bronzes and books, reflecting the splendor of the entire study, accompanied by the wafting incense, which became even more mysterious. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Liu Chang looked at Fan Li, the new housekeeper who was sitting in front of him, with a handsome face and the soul of Fan Liying, a well-known strategist in the Spring and Autumn Period, and listened carefully to his views on the matter of the king. The clan guards the states, and it is supposed to guard the Quartet on behalf of the Son of Heaven, shouldn't it strengthen the royal family? Why is it convenient for the world and the powerful? ”

Fan Li saw Liu Chang and Liu Chang asking, thought for a while, and didn't give an answer, but only asked: "I don't know what the prince knows about these princes sealed by His Majesty?" ”

"This ......", Liu Chang frowned, raised the teacup in his hand, and drank it all, his mind racing.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty divided a total of 14 kings this time, except for himself who stayed in Gyeonggi, the remaining 13 kings were all out to graze and guard the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

Among them, there are seven people who are familiar with them, namely Liu Yan, King of Shu, Liu Biao, King of Chu, Liu Dai, King of Han, Liu Xuan, King of Wu, Liu Yu, King of Yan, Liu Fu, King of Yue, and Liu Xie, the prince of Yongwang, among the above seven people, Liu Yan, Liu Biao, Liu Dai, Liu Xiang and Liu Yu all went to the same place as history. As for Liu Fu, this person was only a Taishou under Cao Cao in the original history, and now he has become the king and the lord of a state, so he will make a difference in the future. As for the prince Liu Xie, I am afraid that he will not be released in a short time, after all, what queen is there, so Yongzhou is actually a borderless land.

And the rest of Liu Yi, King of Qi, Liu Yu, King of Wei, Liu Lian, King of Lu, Liu Tao, King of Song, Liu Kai, King of Zhao, and Liu Fang, King of Liang, are a little confused for Liu Chang. It seems that only Liu Lian, the king of Lu, has some impressions, and this is because he has a younger brother Liu Ye who has the ability to be a near-first-class strategist and has improved the catapult into a thunderbolt.

At that moment, Liu Chang sorted out what he thought in his heart and wanted to say: "This king ,......" But as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that he was overshadowed by Fan Li, and complained a little angrily, "Hey, you are a Fan Li, a prince, I really take it seriously!" ”

"Haha, the prince is so annoying, now that the edict is below, you have already confirmed the identity of King Jing," Fan Li saw that Liu Chang seemed to be a little disgusted by this title, and said with a slight smile, "Anyway, from now on, everyone in the world will call you like this, my lord!" ”

"......" Liu Chang's face was full of black lines, and he suddenly thought that since I am the king now, and he is white and his own strategist, then this work of analyzing others should be done by him, and by the way, it is also good to see how these rare thinkers in hundreds of years view those clan relatives, and he couldn't help but say, "Okay, let's get down to business." What you just asked, this king has been in business all the year round, and he doesn't know much about these people, only that Liu Yu, the king of Yan, is upright and has a good reputation, but this person is too soft, and if there is a strong subordinate official, it is very likely to be counterattacked; Liu Biao, the king of Chu, has a brilliant literary and good appearance, and sometimes has the reputation of 'eight handsome', but although this person has Wen Tao, he has no enterprising heart, and the mound is dry; Liu Yan, the king of Shu, has been an official for many years and has made good political achievements, but he is already old, and half a rotten wood is just that; as for Liu Dai, the king of Han, and Liu Xuan, the king of Wu, are brothers, and they are both famous for Confucianism, if these two people are allowed to specialize in Confucianism, they may become Confucian masters, but it may be difficult for these two people to rule the state and county to have a good end. As for the other kings, they don't know much about it. I don't know if Brother Tao Zhu Xian understands? ”

Fan Li looked at Liu Chang with some surprise: "I didn't expect the prince to know these five kings so thoroughly." ”

"Haha, when this king ran around the rivers and lakes, these five people were already famous, and few people in the world didn't know about them, right?" Liu Changhan smiled and said in his heart: "Look, I can tell you that I came from time travel, you must know that I didn't play less games in the Three Kingdoms series before I crossed over, and I didn't read less related novels and materials, as for these Han clan relatives who had pastored one side, they also paid a lot of attention.

"Hehe, although the five kings of Liu Yu, Liu Biao, Liu Xuan, Liu Dai, and Liu Yan are known all over the world, most people only know their names, and there are few such incisive judgments as the prince." Fan Li shook his head and frowned.

"Oh? Are there fewer people? What does Tao Zhu Xiandi say about the kings? As he spoke, he lifted the pottery teapot and filled the empty teacup in Fan Li's hand.

Fan Li shook the teacup in his hand and said slowly: "Liu Yu, the king of Yan, is virtuous and benevolent, but he is too soft, as the prince said, if he has a strong subordinate and if his interests are uneven, he will be counterattacked." According to the following knowledge, there is a grandson clan in Youzhou, among which the grandson of Xuanfu in Liaodong and the grandson of the Lingzhi branch of Liaoxi are the leaders of the clan, and if the king of Yan does not get along with one of them, he will be captured by him one day; Liu Biao, the king of Chu, is not under the king of Yan, but the place where he is located is particularly complicated, the land of Jingxiang is full of powerful families, and the prince was once a businessman, and he should know the Jingzhou clan, right? ”

"Hmm!" Liu Chang nodded, "There are three major clans in this Jingxiang land, which are the Huang family, the Cai family and the Kuai family, and there are also small families such as the Pang family and the Zhang family. ”

"Not bad!" Fan Li echoed, "As far as I know, Sun Jian, known as the 'Jiangdong Tiger', has been named the Taishou of Changsha because of his meritorious service in the crusade against the Yellow Turban. With the assistance of the Jiangdong Sun family, he was newly promoted to Jingxiang Haoqiang. ”

"Silk ......" Liu Chang couldn't help but feel great when he heard this.

This Sun Jian was named the Taishou of Changsha, which was not appointed until after the Xiliang Rebellion was pacified, and after the protection of Huangfu Song and others. And now it's ahead of schedule. Liu Cousin Sun Jian's rivalry is still the same, plus the Gongsun Zan and Gongsun Du that Fan Li said before, it seems that the general trend of the world has not changed.

It seemed that he noticed Liu Chang's strange appearance, and Fan Li threw out another question, "I don't know how the prince thinks that Liu Jingsheng's generation should deal with such a situation?" ”

"Of course, it is to unite one side and suppress the other." Liu Changde asked, answering without thinking. He knew that Liu Biao did this in history.

"Then according to the prince's intentions, which party is the best connection?" Fan Li asked.

Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Are you talking about me, or that Liu Jingsheng?" ”

Fan Li smiled slightly: "If the prince is in that situation, how will he choose?" ”

Liu Chang clenched the teacup in his hand, shook it lightly a few times, and said in a deep voice: "If it were me, I would definitely connect with Sun Jian to control the Jingxiang clan." ”

"Oh, why is that?" This answer surprised Fan Li a lot.

"There are three reasons for choosing Sun Jian." Seeing Fan Li's surprised look, Liu Chang simply said the reason together, "First, Sun Jian and I are both famous for our military achievements, which is not commendable in the eyes of the world; Second, Sun Jian and I are both foreigners, and we have fought in the same trenches, so we are naturally closer; Third, he Sun Jian has the Jiangdong Sun clan as the backing, and I also have my own industry as the cornerstone, so I can abandon the resources of the local family and become self-sufficient. These three articles alone can make a certain choose Sun Jian and abandon the clan. ”

"Bang Bang!" When Fan Li heard this, he couldn't help clapping his hands and said, "The prince is really wise!" So I wonder what choice Liu Jingsheng will make? ”

"Hmph...... As for that rotten Confucian, he will definitely choose the family to balance Sun Jian. Liu Chang snorted coldly and said decisively.

Fan Li couldn't help but be stunned, and then the corners of his mouth rose, and he said with a smile: "I have heard that General Zhu Jun praised the prince as the reincarnation of Zhang Liang, and Chen Ping was resurrected. ”

"Hehe, it's ridiculous!" Liu Chang smiled a little embarrassedly, and said in his heart: If you didn't come through time, how could you know this, compared to your 98 intelligence freak, this is all a little witch.

After the two exchanged a salute with tea instead of wine, Fan Li continued: "If the king of Chu chooses the family, then these families must have the supreme power of the Chu land, and in the long run, the power of the king of Chu will be hollowed out, and when the king of Chu is old and decrepit, it may be difficult to control. ”

"Hmmm! Is this what you call a family of convenience? Liu Chang knew that the historical Liu Biao Group was sold by the family in the end.

"Let's talk about Liu Yan, the king of Shu," Fan Li paused, as if sorting out his thoughts, "Although the king of Shu has been in the officialdom for many years, it is not a problem to shepherd and guard one place. However, this person is quite ambitious, and now he has been crowned king, and it may be difficult for the court to restrain him. ”

When Liu Chang heard this, he nodded again and again, and sighed in his heart: He is worthy of being a fierce man with an intelligence of 98, and he has analyzed it so clearly.

"Besides, King Han and King Wu, as the prince said, these two are both great Confucians. However, it may be difficult to do anything in the state and county. If the world is peaceful, these two people can be safe, but if the world changes, I am afraid it will be difficult to die well. ”

After Liu Chang saw Fan Li analyze the five people he knew well, he praised and said: "Brother Tao Zhu Xian's analysis has penetrated into it, even if Ruzu Fan Li is resurrected, it is just like this!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Fan Li bowed his hand to Liu Chang's praise and continued, "Among the other kings, except for the prince Liu Xie, they are all Confucian scholars who write and write, and it may be difficult to control the state and county government affairs. Qingzhou under the rule of King Qi, although it is said that Chengping is now said to be peaceful, but there are still bandits infested, according to rumors, a disciple of Zhang Bao of Taiping Dao named Guan Hai, once fled to Qingzhou with tens of thousands of yellow scarves and disappeared, the picture is unknown; Liu Fu, the king of Yue, went to Jiaozhou, I am afraid that there is no return, and now Jiaozhou has been controlled by the local Haoqiangshi, and there is a faint image of independence; King Wei's Jizhou is the world of the Yuan family of the third prince of the fourth dynasty, and all the officials in the state and county have an old relationship with the Yuan family. King Liang and King Zhao's territories, Liangzhou and Bingzhou, are both war-torn places, but these two people are not familiar with military affairs, and there are doubts about whether they can gain a foothold; Now it seems that only Liu Lian, the king of Lu, is slightly better. ”

"Huh?" Liu Chang doesn't understand, in terms of reputation, the first few are higher than this Liu Lian, why do you say that Liu Lian's situation is slightly better among these people?

Seeing Liu Chang's doubts, Fan Li didn't hide it, and said: "Today's Xuzhou Thorn History is the same Tao Qian and Tao Gongzu who were born in Confucianism. The two of them once discussed the Tao together, and they wanted to be officials in the same dynasty, but Liu Jian did not want to be in collusion with the eunuchs, so they were idle at home. In addition, he also has a brother, named Liu Ye, who is not only proficient in Wen Tao, but also knows the art of organs, which can be described as a genius. Therefore, Liu Jian has his younger brother to assist, and he is also an old friend of Tao Qian, and his position as King Lu should be quite stable. ”
