"This is too precious, and it will be punished for nothing, Liu Gong, I can't help it." Sun Jian hurriedly shook his head and excused himself.

Although in the first year of Emperor He's Yuanxing, Cai Lun, who was still the commander of Shang Fangling, presented to the Son of Heaven his summing up of his past experience and made new paper from tree bark, torn linen, old fishing nets and other things; However, although this kind of paper has many advantages such as easy to obtain materials, wide range of sources, low cost, etc., but the excellent product rate is too low, and most of the paper made according to its method is extremely heavy and difficult to write.

In fact, the paper that can really be used for large-scale writing is the bamboo paper that appeared after the Eastern Jin Dynasty Yiguan Nandu, which used bamboo as the main material and was made on the basis of Caihou paper; Later, successive dynasties made attempts to improve it, and in the Tang Dynasty, the advent of rice paper officially marked the full maturity of Chinese classical paper-making techniques.

Therefore, in this era, bamboo slips are the main writing carrier, because of the backwardness of the writing carrier, the dissemination of knowledge has been very limited, so it was born through the monopoly of academics and knowledge and the birth of the gate valve on the basis of Haoqiang.

Therefore, don't look at Liu Hong sending out one set after another of the "Spring and Autumn" he annotated, and think that this is an ordinary thing, which is not a pity. Of course, after sending several sets in a row, Liu Hong's accumulation in the past ten years has also gone for most of it.

Liu You watched Liu Hong and Sun Jian pushing around the bamboo slips on the side, and suddenly felt a little like laughing in his heart, this smile, it was neither Liu Hong nor Sun Jian who was laughing, but himself.

Because the scene in front of him was so familiar, it was exactly what he had personally experienced. It was the second night after the pacification of Shanyin, in the inner hall of the county government, he and Liu Gong had a night talk, from the beginning of the mutual temptation, to the later words to the rise of the endless words, in the company of the flickering candles in the dusk, this said is a sleepless night.

The next day, at the time of parting, Liu Hong gave Liu You his hand-annotated "Spring and Autumn", and through the study of this volume of "Spring and Autumn", Liu You's already excited mood was almost like a volcano about to erupt, exploding.

Since that day, Liu You has faintly respected Liu Hong in everything and voluntarily attached to his tail, because he knows that this small county, Huiji, and even Yangzhou will definitely not be the end of Liu Gong - the land of thorns, is it a place where Luan Feng has lived for a long time? There are some people who, judging by their words and deeds, know that they are not destined to be ordinary.

After a while, Sun Jian finally accepted Liu Hong's gift, and Liu Hong returned to his seat satisfied, and then the topic of the banquet began to get on the right track.

"Wentai, I almost forgot to ask you, what is the situation in Wu County now?"

Sun Jian held his hand and replied: "Gong Liu, if today's Zibiao Zang Gong is the post of Yangzhou Assassin Shi, and the matter of encircling and suppressing Xu Rebellion, Zang Gong takes me as the vanguard of the three armies, and gallops to aid Shanyin first, and he will recruit people from various counties in the rear, which will not be around the corner. ”

"Oh, then I'll be at ease." Liu Hong replied with a smile, but deep in his heart there was a long cry: "It's finally almost here, it's not in vain that I have waited for so many days." ”

……

Time passed slowly, and in a blink of an eye, on December 29 of the first year of Xiping, 3,000 Vietnamese troops, all the way, finally returned to Juzhang County.

However, what awaited them was not rest, but a new task - to clear a clearing outside the city of Juzhang, and then cast a nineteen-story platform from earth, wood, and stone on top of this clearing.

This inexplicable and wonderful order naturally made the Yue soldiers who returned from a long journey dissatisfied, but in the face of the new Yue King Xuchang's tougher and more nervous style than his father, all they could do was to secretly grind foreign workers.

At this moment, in the county government, Xu He was trying to persuade Xu Chang, trying to get him to dispel his appalling thoughts.

"Alright, Prime Minister." Xu Chang waved his long sleeves, turned around and looked directly at Xu He, and said word by word: "You need to understand that Lone is the master of this Great Yue!" ”

"I understand." Xu He bowed heavily, his head hit the ground, and there was a muffled sound, then he raised his head and said in a deep voice: "But before Wang Yan drove first, he entrusted the safety of this Dayue country to the minister, and the minister must not let the king Hu come." ”

"Hahaha." Xu Chang laughed angrily, stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu He and scolded: "Lonely Hu? Look at you alone, you're an old fool! ”

"If the name is not right, the word is not good; If you don't go well, you can't do anything, if you don't fulfill the supreme position, how can you compete with the Han thief? Besides, this emperor's throne, the yellow-haired child in Luoyang City can sit, but he can't sit alone? All right, you have made up your mind, get up, and retreat yourself. ”

"I can't get up." Xu He shook his head and said resolutely: "If the king does not take back his order, the minister will never get up." ”

"Oh?" Xu Chang slowly lowered his body, stared at Xu He's eyes, and said gloomily: "Prime Minister, are you trying to threaten Gu?" ”

"I don't dare."

"Don't dare, you dare to see you alone." Xu He straightened up and shouted, then kicked Xu He, who was kneeling on the ground, to the ground, and said sharply: "Don't get out of here!" ”

Xu He struggled to get up, and shook his head again: "The minister will not leave." ”

"Okay, good, you and other old ministers, bullying the orphan as the new king, on weekdays they will fly to the extreme, the bones of the lonely king are not cold, and I don't want to worry more about you, don't you expect that you have no king, and you will be as good as Si!"

"Do you think Lone really has no way to take you, where are the left and right guards?"

Hearing Xu Chang's shout, the two guards entered the room with halberds and saluted: "I've seen the king!" I've seen the prime minister! ”

"Put the prime minister in the county jail, there is no edict for orphans, and no one is allowed to let him out."

After listening to Xu Chang's order, the two guards hesitated, which immediately caused Xu Chang to roar dissatisfiedly: "What? Can't understand Lone's words? ”

The two guards were so frightened that they hurriedly stepped forward, gave Xu He an apologetic look, and then grabbed his arms left and right, and carried Xu He out. And Xu He seemed to have accepted his fate, and did not make any struggle.

At night, Xu He got up from the straw roll in the prison, and he smiled miserably: "Da Yue is over." ”

The title of emperor has been used by the emperors of the Han family since Zulong unified the six countries and put forward the Dingding world, and its political significance and influence are far from being comparable to a mere Yue king.

It is still possible to call the king tactful and roundabout, and to call the emperor the emperor will inevitably attract the unending severe blow of the imperial army, and there is no worse situation for a nascent regime.

After all, what a war is fought is the comprehensive strength of a regime or a country, and this general trend can not be reversed by one or two virtuous and famous generals. What's more, there is no clearer picture of the specific situation of the Vietnamese army at this time than Xu He.

Xu He touched the rough stone wall, his life was like a big dream, Xu Sheng, the king of Yue, was the key to enter this dream, and now that he is dead, this dream has also come to the time when it should be broken, what emperor and general, what Runan Wang's family, in the end it is just a joke.

But is the path he is taking today what he wants? I only hate the injustice of this world, muddy as mud, good and difficult to exist, and I can't help it!

Xu He slowly gathered his clothes and looked at it, re-tied his belt, and then muttered to himself: "King, the minister is here to accompany you." He took a few steps back, mustering all his strength and slamming his head into the stone wall.

At dawn the next day, when the guards reported Xu He's suicide in prison, Xu Chang was stunned at first, and then he was furious, kicked over several cases in a row, and kept scolding angrily in his mouth: "Rebels, rebels, these rebels ...... them."

It was not until noon, as the good time he carefully selected was approaching, that Xu Chang barely extinguished his anger, changed into his uniform, and rode to the outside of the city in the Qinggai carriage that Xu Sheng had used to attack the county government of Juzhang in the past, and then under the gaze of the Vietnamese soldiers and the people who were forced to go out of the city to watch the ceremony, he stepped up to the small mound that had been built for a day and night, and offered sacrifices to heaven and earth, calling the emperor "Yangming".

Liu Hong didn't know anything about another farce staged by the father and son of the Xu family in Juzhang County, and if he knew, he would definitely be very happy, because there was obviously a big difference between the merits of catching a thief who was the king and catching the thief who was the emperor.

However, Liu Hong was not idle at this time, he was busy in the county government to receive the newly arrived Wu County Taishou and Yangzhou Assassin Zang Min, during the banquet, Zang Min sat at the top, Liu Hong sat in the second seat, and the rest of the people sat down in turn according to the size of the rank.

Everyone drank and laughed, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious, which reached its peak after Liu Hong told his deeds with Jia Wei again.

At Zang Min's suggestion, everyone raised their bottles to pay tribute to Liu Hong and Jia Wei, and when this cup was drunk, Zang Min said: "I am ordered by the Son of Heaven, and I am also the post of Yangzhou Assassin, and I am in charge of the power of local supervision. ”

"Ziyi (Gongyan) thanked Zang Gong."

Liu Hong and Jia Wei replied in unison, but this was not the time to politely shirk.

"Still." Zang Min looked at Liu Hong: "Ziyi, your name needs to be changed." ”

"Name change?" Liu Hong frowned, the name was given by his parents, how could it be easy, but through Sun Jian's description of Zang Min and his brief contact with him, although Liu Hong did not dare to make a clear judgment on Zang Min, he also knew that he was by no means a boring person who would make such jokes.

Wait, Liu Hong seemed to have thought of something, his brows stretched out for a while, and he thanked Zang Min with his hand: "Ziyi thanked Zang Gong for mentioning something, otherwise he would have almost made a big mistake." ”

Zang Min smiled and said, "Why do you have to say thank you for the things that are within your account?" However, has Zi Yi come up with a name? ”

Liu Hong lowered his head, he really had to think about it, after all, the name represents the most basic face of a person, and there is no room for hastiness. To be honest, he has been calling the name Liu Hong for many years, and he is really not used to changing his name at this time. But helplessly, who is called "Liu Hong" today, for the Venerable, unless he is willing to be a small official for a lifetime, it is imperative to change his name.

After half a ring, Liu Hong spoke: "Zang Gong, take the last word of my table and call it Liu Yi." ”
