Chapter 11 Go to Changle Palace
After Liu Yong invented stirrups and horseshoes, after discussing with the prime minister, Jiuqing and the generals of 2,000 stones, he unanimously made a decision to ask the examination office to immediately start improving and producing 500 sets of stirrups and horseshoes, and deliver them to the Chinese Tiger Cavalry Battalion for experimental use, accumulate experience and discover deficiencies.
At the same time, in front of the ministers, Liu Yongci ordered Li Yang to pay 100 gold.
In the eyes of the ministers, if the invention of stirrups and horseshoes through association only confirmed the master's quick thinking, then in the implementation of stirrups and horsesshoes, Liu Yong's idea of not being greedy and aggressive, and first experimenting and then promoting, let these ministers see the emperor's cautious style and sophisticated methods.
Such a wise and capable emperor can no longer be despised by everyone.
As for the heavily armored cavalry, Liu Yong did not lead it out in front of the minister, and now the time has not come. On the contrary, he ordered Li Yang to improve the papermaking technique as soon as possible and reduce its cost. Compared with the stiff bamboo slips and the soft, weak silk books, the paper is much more comfortable.
As for how to improve papermaking, Liu Yong only remembers that it seems to be using rattan fur, orange peel, mulberry peel, hemp bamboo, nettle and other materials to make paper, and the rest is not very clear. But it doesn't matter, Liu Yong pointed out the direction, and now let professionals like Li Yang explore and explore.
Moreover, the advent of cheap paper also heralded a historic change...... The family's monopoly on knowledge will be broken!

Hua Que
I have been busy with things in front, and when my stomach growled, Liu Yongcai remembered that he had not used his lunch, and returned to Huaque to eat, and before he had eaten half of the meal, Chuntuo reported: "Your Majesty, so King Lu Taifu Du Qiong asks to see!" ”
"The teacher is here, quick, please enter the palace." Hearing the report of Chuntuo, Liu Yong remembered that he had ascended from King Lu to the great treasure...... My teacher seems to have lost his position. King Lu is gone, so he naturally can't be the prince of Lu. Moreover, Liu Yong did not give Du Qiong a talisman, and Du Qiong could only stand outside the palace gate if he wanted to see him. It's not that Liu Yong doesn't want to give his teacher preferential treatment, but he gave it, he gave it, and Meng Guang didn't agree!
Yes, Liu Yong didn't expect Meng Guang to refuse his order at all, and Meng Guang refused to tell the reason for refusal, which made Liu Yong really depressed. If it were someone else, Liu Yong might have fallen in love with him, but against Meng Guang, he could only cry out in vain.
Meng Guang, upright personality, straightforward and fast-talking, was the clansman of Meng Yu, the Taiwei of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was a minister when Emperor Ling, and then avoided Dong Zhuo's chaos into Shu, and Liu Yan's father and son treated him as guests. This Meng Guang is well-read, reads all books, and is especially proficient in the old classics of the Han family. At that time, the Shu Han Dynasty was rudely built, and all the sacrifices and ceremonies were blind, and they still relied on Meng Guang and Liu Ba to reluctantly come up with a set of etiquette systems.
Therefore, this has also become a place where Cao Wei ridiculed Shu Han, and even the Han family system is not complete and brazenly calls Ji Han in vain, which is really just an anti-thief!
In ancient China, the correct system of rules and regulations was equivalent to the legitimacy of the regime, so in the face of Meng Guang's knowledgeable and well-informed, it was difficult for Liu Yong to do anything to him, this is the clear stream of Shu Han and the face of the imperial court, Liu Yong can't always slap himself in the face.
After a while, Du Qiong was welcomed into Huaque, and Liu Yong greeted him.
"Your Majesty!"
"Teacher, please get up! Come, teacher, please sit down. Du Qiong looks radiant, her body is still strong, and Liu Yong is very happy.
Du Qiong knelt in front of the former student and now the emperor, looked calm, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, how is it to work with the prime minister?" ”
"The prime minister is a humble gentleman, talented, and has the style of an ancient minister. It's been a pleasure to work with. ”
"What about the other ministers?"
"The rest of the ministers are all pillars of the court, and I take it seriously."
"Hmm," Du Qiong nodded approvingly, and smiled even more, his gray beard curled up and turned up, which was very good-looking. "What about the Queen Mother, has Your Majesty ever gone to greet you every day? What about the princes of Liang and the first emperors? Has Your Majesty ever sent down your care? ”
Yes?
Liu Yong's heart suddenly fluttered, since he ascended the throne, he summoned ministers, asked about state affairs, military affairs, inspected troops, invented tools, and always presented an image of a Ming Jun who was worried about the world's major affairs, but he seemed to have missed something in his heart, and there was a feeling of emptiness.
Now, when Du Qiong asked like this, Liu Yong suddenly realized that what he had been ignoring or subconsciously forgetting was his family and relatives!
Although he inherited the original Liu Yong's body and identity, from the bottom of his heart, he did not identify with his family, and the Empress Dowager Wu and Liu Li, the king of Liang, have not taken it to heart!
And in China, filial piety is the basis of being a man and doing things, a person who is not filial to his parents and does not care for his brothers is not trusted and valued by the world, and the deep-rooted concept - how can a person who is not filial to his parents and even his brothers love others, and how can such a person who has no virtue deserve to be in a high position?
Virtue is at a loss, which is a taboo for monarchs. But before Du Qiong, no one reminded Liu Yong to pay attention to this matter, and no one ......... Not even Prime Minister Zhuge Liang!
So Liu Yong hurriedly avoided the table and bowed, Xie (apologized) and said: "This is my worry, I care too much about national politics, so much so that I forget to abolish the kiss ceremony, I now understand what to do." ”
Du Qiong also stood up and bowed: "The minister heard that His Majesty was anxious about state affairs, and frequently summoned the ministers to explore the state affairs with the courtiers, which shows that Your Majesty has accepted the minister's shallow teachings." However, the minister also heard that His Majesty did not set the Governor of the Governor's Palace in the morning, and did not give an edict of encouragement and condolences to his younger brother, which made the minister feel very worried............
Liu Yong looked at his teacher gratefully, Du Qiong can be regarded as his pure minister, and he can find out his shortcomings in time. "I intend to take the teacher as the counselor, and I hope that the teacher can advise me on my mistakes in time."
"This is also what the minister wants, and the old minister is willing to do a little bit for His Majesty."
Looking at Du Qiong's calmness and blandness, Liu Yong couldn't help but worship Du Qiong's noble character again, King Lu Taifu's rank was more than 2,000 stones, and the advice doctor was only a mere 600 stone officials, Du Qiong also accepted it without regrets.
********************************
The wheels rolled over the floor tiles of the palace, and he was on the car to Changle Palace, this was not Liu Yong's initiative to greet the Empress Dowager Wu, in fact, he planned to go again tonight, and he didn't think that the Empress Dowager Wu would send Zhang De to pass the word and invite the emperor to Changle Palace.
Thinking of the Empress Dowager Wu, Liu Yong began to think about the problem of his queen, when he was the king of Lu, he was not married, and naturally there was no queen.
But the fifteen-year-old King Lu can not get married, but the fifteen-year-old emperor cannot not get married.
According to traditional thinking, a person who starts a family means that he has grown up, matured, and has been able to shoulder the burden of family and society.
Of course, that is only for the common people, mud legs, for the emperor and the monarch, the only use of the big marriage is to give birth to children, continue their own bloodline, and then when they are old one day in the future, they will entrust the society to the heir when they will go underground. After completing the mission, the soul returns to heaven and enjoys the four seasons of sacrifice and three sacrifices for future generations.
This is especially important for Liu Yong............ Because the throne has always been passed down from father to son, this position should have been done by Liu Xuan, but it was only because of special reasons that Liu Yong reaped unexpected joy. However, if Liu Yong has no heirs or Liu Yong's heirs are not capable of guarding the emperor's throne as they are today, the throne will definitely slip away from Liu Yong's lineage......
All Liu Yong needs to get married as soon as possible, and then give birth to a healthy, strong and crying baby boy as soon as possible, like the world to prove that his bloodline has been inherited, and the ministers can not hesitate to pay allegiance to their own lineage, and do not worry about anything else.
This............ It also involves the secrets behind the imperial power......
Fei Yi, Dong Yun and Guo Youzhi must have the ability and ability, and they must have good conduct, but why will Liu Yong never fully trust them, just because they were not recruited and promoted by Liu Yong? Hum! That's just the most obvious reason!
The real concern is that they are all the team that Liu Bei planned for Liu Chan, when Liu Chan was still the crown prince of Hanzhong, they had already followed Liu Chan around, and when it came to the friendship between the monarch and the minister, Liu Yong was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with Liu Chan.
So Liu Yong is afraid, who can guarantee that he can live until he arranges everything and then die, in the future, if he has something unbearable, at that time, these elites who hold the power of the imperial court are afraid that the first thing they think of is not to set up their own son, but to meet Liu Xuan!!
People are selfish, and as an emperor, they need to be ruthless and selfish, although the above is only a possibility, but even the slightest possibility Liu Yong will be killed in the cradle.
Jun, I don't see the tears.
The emperor never believed in tears!
Moreover, the emperor's marriage has never been a free and freewheeling union, it will always be linked to political interests, which Liu Yong has prepared in his heart. Moreover, with Liu Yong's age and the concept of governing the country with filial piety, Liu Yong's queen is mostly decided by the Empress Dowager Wu, and of course Zhuge Liang can also exert influence.
In this regard, Liu Yongyi does not intend to resist, the queen and Delai will work together, and if she does not come to be a vase, Liu Yongyi is not here, and his status in this life determines that he will never be able to have pure love. This point, Zou Ji made it very clear in the sarcasm of King Qi's admonition.
