In the warm pavilion in the hospital, Liu Qi saw Ouyang Xuan, who had just returned from the hospital, dressed in a jute robe and a hair scarf to tie his hair. didn't wear a crown, this was not Ouyang Xuan's intention, but Ouyang Xuan never wore a crown when he went to the hospital and university, he was dressed as a civilian, and his face was still about sixteen years old, and he hadn't seen any changes in more than thirty years. Aside from the firmer muscles, not much change is noticed. Right now, if this costume is in the market, no one will associate him with the current Xia King. "Your Majesty, what's the point of looking for such and such a thing in a hurry?"

"Has the envoy sent to the Han Court ever sent a letter back?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the messenger has set off for summer some time ago, and is on his way. With the edict of the current monarch and a letter with His Majesty, a certain Yi agreed to return the proceeds of Guangyang County, Zhuo County and Bohai County. As for Yuyang County, Shanggu County, Dai County, and Yanmen County, they will no longer be returned, and as the border between Xia and Han, Xia will no longer pay tribute according to the vassal state. Han Junshang has agreed to respect His Majesty as the Emperor Taishang and live in the South Palace at the end of the expansion. Your Majesty's actions are all up to Your Majesty, and Xia will not interfere in this matter. If Your Majesty wants the ministers to send troops to Chang'an, the ministers should also obey them."

"It's time for me to go back, the livelihood of the people in Hanxia is huge. I am very disturbed, and I need to go back and teach the rebels to do it."

"Another minister learned that now the Han monarch has pursued Gongsun He and Gongsun Hong and others for the crime of betraying the generals and killing the king, and there will be an edict in the near future, fearing that the crime of the nine clans will be punished. Your Majesty is cautious".

"They are all horses on their backs. Compared to King Xia, Che'er is far behind. I hope that in my lifetime, I will not see the Xia Han dispute again. If I want to take Minyue, Nanyue, Jiaozhi, and Zhuqiang, as long as I don't fight with the Han, I can do it, and the Han family is powerless to intervene."

"Your Majesty has returned to Han this time, and I will persuade you more. Don't be greedy for merit, put the people first, abolish Confucianism and the art of the elderly, and the country can prosper." "I wrote it down. In addition, I heard that why Xia Guo wants to promote Buddhism? ”。

It is a reward and punishment for the hearts of the people. The law binds the body, not the heart. Religion binds the heart and makes an appointment, but it wants the way of religion, there must be patriarchal law, and there is no patriarchal teaching, and there is a bad heart for disorderly teaching. Strengthening the right and cutting the evil is the right way. Those who are good are evil, and those who are good are positive, and it is not good to control, and if there is a slight difference, the heart and soul will be destroyed. Confucianism avoids ghosts, does not believe in trust, only speaks in the mouth, but not in the heart, and the heart and deeds are inconsistent, which is easy to cause confusion in the hearts of the people, and drives them away with profit, which will cause harm to religion. Therefore, if Your Majesty promotes Buddhism and Taoism, remember to abolish Confucianism. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it". "Forget it, I don't want to do it."

Liu Qi returned to his residence very lonely, Ouyang Xuan had said similar things before, but he was not so clear. I can do it myself, but my heart is too soft, and I can't be ruthless. As a result, Confucianism has rebounded today, and compared with today's Xia Kingdom, it is like the difference between heaven and earth. In the Han land, they were regarded as subordinate craftsmen, and in the Xia Kingdom, they were able to become marquis, and with these craftsmen, both agriculture and commerce were extremely prosperous. The food and money in the warehouse are very abundant, if the Xia Kingdom wants to annex the Han family, it can do it without laboring the people, Liu Qi has a feeling of unease.

When the first snow fell in the north, Liu Che's letter and the envoys of the Xia Kingdom arrived in the Xia Valley together. Liu Che sincerely asked Ouyang Xuan to escort the Emperor Taishang back to Chang'an, and would ensure the safety of the Emperor Taishang in Chang'an, reconcile with the Xia State, and recognize the equal status of the Xia State and the Han Dynasty. For Liu Che, who was good at backtracking and ruthless in history, Ouyang Xuan didn't see it. sent 100 personal soldiers to escort Liu Qi to Sanshui Pass, and Wei Qing took over to escort Liu Qi back to Chang'an. This was also the last time Ouyang Xuan saw Liu Qi, and it was also the last time Liu Qi traveled. After returning to Chang'an, he was imprisoned by Liu Che in Zhongnan Palace, standing silently in front of the jade mountains and rivers atlas presented by Ouyang Xuan every day, and also advised Liu Che many times, but returned in vain, and eight years later in depression in the Xia Wang Palace of Zhongnan Palace, buried in Yangling.

In the spring after sending Liu Qi away, because of the imprecise wording of Liu Che's letters, Ouyang Xuan was proclaimed emperor at the strong request of the courtiers, changed the name of the country to Huaxia, Liu Hui was the queen, and the crown prince Ouyang Hong. Reform the official system, abolish the original Han system, imitate the Tang Dynasty to set up three provinces and six ministries, set up nine ranks, the title was reformed on the basis of the Han system, the establishment of the civil lord and the official lord, the official lord is also modeled after the Tang Dynasty to set up the duke, marquis, uncle, son, male five-level titles, only the Lu and the palace, no fiefdom, decreasing from generation to generation, the civil lord is in accordance with the Han system. Those with titles enjoyed tax benefits, but at the same time had to bear the obligation of the nobility to serve the country. Ouyang Xuan originally planned to establish a constitutional monarchy in accordance with the later generations, but after repeated thinking and discussion with the courtiers, he finally gave up this leapfrog development idea, which was very absurd and even dangerous before the people got rid of the consciousness of "slavery".

Ouyang Xuan drafted a constitution and more than 50 laws, submitted them to the courtiers for discussion, and after revision, he was responsible for interpreting them with the people with the education departments in various places, and implemented a system of selecting officials in parallel with the imperial examination, and the officials were inspected and assessed by the supervision of the imperial history. At the same time, the law of security was enacted, restricting the wealthy families from owning private soldiers, soldiers, and security guards are all responsible for the security departments established in various places, prohibiting the families from setting up private academies, and the education departments of various places are responsible for the education of the whole people, so as to give the people a relatively fair educational environment, which cannot be said to be completely equal, but it should be far ahead in this era. The children of the poor can get a good education in the public colleges. The development of the times must come step by step, and there are many things that Ouyang Xuan can't control now.

With the advancement of the reform of the official system and the knighthood system, the Xia Kingdom once again set off a wave of construction, due to the improvement of agricultural tools, the efficiency has increased several times, and the development speed will be faster if the environmental impact is not considered. Because Ouyang Xuan has strict requirements for work-related injuries and working conditions, all the projects are carried out very slowly and with little intensity, so the common people are also willing to participate in these jobs that can bring money and food when they are not working. In order to prevent inflation, the household department adopted a series of measures to regulate the amount of money in society through goods such as glass, rubber, and porcelain, which were controlled by the Shaofu. When the currency is mostly lower than the market price, it will increase the supply of materials and return the currency, and when the currency is small, it will buy back some of the surplus materials and grain of the people. This method was thought of by a waiter in the household department, and Ouyang Xuan had to admire the wisdom of people in this era. Prices have remained stable between one vote and one release.

The white-haired master Hong, who only returned in the summer of the second year after Ouyang Xuan became emperor, did not bring back any news about Yunmeng Mountain. This year is destined to be an unstable year, not long after the main father Hong came back, he died of illness due to overwork, at the age of seventy-eight, and then Nie Ping and Bo Hou also passed away one after another, Gongliang Shu held a three-ink meeting in Xia Gu City, and after electing a new juzi, he also went to another world, and Canggong Chun Yuyi also went with him at the end of the summer of that year. The death of these old people made Ouyang Xuan very sad and made the crown prince Ouyang Hong in charge of the country. He often tastes tea alone in the pavilion, talks about the past and the present, or takes the personal guards to tour the territory of China.

Hurried a few years, in the blink of an eye it was the spring of 115 B.C., these years were the prince of the country, the management of the whole country, more energetic than Ouyang Xuan's management, the railway built a vertical and horizontal network, Minyue country after the death of Zou Chou, became a state in China, Nanyue and Jiaozhi country surrendered to China one after another, Zhuqiang tribe in many years of surrender and attack in parallel, completely annexed, sent officials and basic teachers to enlighten the people's wisdom, Loulan in the Huaxia country under the deterrence, completely broke with the Xiongnu, Hexi Corridor was also completely opened, The Xiongnu no longer had any power in Monan. The Han Dynasty is still in the natural disaster and the courtiers in the deceit of the difficult to move forward, the beginning of the spring Han Dynasty came to the news, the imperial history Zhang Tang, the prime minister Zhuang Qingzhai committed suicide, again because of the court sacrifice when the gold quality problem, the princes, courtiers died thousands, implicated in the millions. Liu Che obtained countless money and food through this, Liu Che, who was not willing to be mediocre, took the general Wei Qing as the main commander, sent troops to Sanshui Pass, and could not overcome it in a few days. Lang swore in Yanmen, Zhang Jian in Sanshui, Han Liang rose up in Guangyang to resist, and the Han army's offensive was resolved and invisible. Wei Qing was seriously injured and was forced to retreat back to Chang'an, Liu Che's army was rushed and killed by the Huaxia cavalry before it could be launched, and Liu Che fled back to Chang'an in a hurry. Ouyang Hong originally wanted to send troops to Chang'an, but was persuaded by Ouyang Xuan. When Liu Qi was alive, Ouyang Xuan did not plan to completely turn his face with the Han Dynasty.

After a few years of recuperation, the elderly Yizhi Xianshan led an army of 300,000 troops from the eastern foothills of Altai Mountain to attack the Western Regions in the autumn, and then the Hui army attacked Zhuqiang and Hexi Corridor, and adopted the strategy of feint attack on the Western Regions and attack China, so that the western part of China fell into chaos for a while, and the Hexi Corridor from Zhangye to Wuwei fell into the plundering of the Xiongnu, and the cities and railways that had not yet been built were looted. Zhang Jian and Lang Oath, who rushed to the rescue, were ambushed and died in battle. When the news came, Ouyang Xuan was drinking tea with Liu Hui in the pavilion, Buick and Gu Li were by his side, Ouyang Hong finished reporting, the cup in Ouyang Xuan's hand fell to the ground, and the sound of glass shattering woke up the sleeping Buick and Gu Li. "Quickly go and gather 50,000 elite cavalrymen, each with two horses and one camel, I want to drive the expedition in person and level all parts of the Huns."

"Father, think twice, now the Chinese national soldiers are full of food, only because the west is still under construction, will be successfully attacked by the Huns, wait for the son to lead the troops to go to the conquest, He Lao father * holds." "My son, I have only been asking about the government for more than four years except for military affairs, and now the country is governed in an orderly manner, and I can't reach it. On this expedition, the logistics needs are still by my son, and I haven't moved for several years, I'm afraid that the old man thinks that he is gone. This time out of the mountain, I want to calm the north of the desert and set the western region. All the affairs and logistical materials of the DPRK and China are all handled by my son." "Father". "Let your father go, in addition to training soldiers over the years, people have become a lot haggard, and without the domineering spirit of the past, let him do something", Liu Hui, who was already on top of the green silk, said slowly while sipping tea. "No, the boy is going to do the food and straw of the soldiers." After Ouyang Hong finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the pavilion and summoned the courtiers to arrange tasks.

"Husband, there is always an old man, birth, old age, sickness and death are common, but the husband's face is the same as when he was young, and the world is only like this. Hui Yi is half a hundred body, if it is not for the courtiers to know that His Majesty is not old, he still thinks that he is a mother and son. Hong'er has also reached the age of establishment, has three sons and two daughters, and in another ten years, I am afraid that the great-grandchildren will run all over the ground. Don't be sad because people are too good to be around. Knowing that the husband values love and righteousness, life is like a gap, and the husband thinks of the old man and adds to his troubles." Saying that, he got up, just like back then, lying on Ouyang Xuan's broad shoulders, the little bird was like a human, and then said: "Hui is enough in this life, what are the regrets about being able to stay with her husband for a long time?" The current greatness of the Huaxia Kingdom is due to the contribution of the husband, and tens of millions of soldiers and civilians are holy. Hundreds of thousands of people from the Han region come every year, all of whom come for Mu Fujun, and Hui is proud of it. Now that the Huns have invaded the territory and plundered, the husband will definitely return with a decision, and the husband will triumph." "It's still Hui'er who knows my heart best." Ouyang Xuan patted Liu Hui's somewhat old hand on his neck, drank tea and said. From a distance, I saw that Ma Ning was coming in a hurry, although he was now the Shangshu Provincial Shangshu Order, and the Lord was the Duke of Liao. Now that he is middle-aged, he hurriedly came to Ouyang Xuan and bowed his hand and said, "Your Majesty, Dong Zhongshu, a great Confucian from the Han Dynasty, and more than a dozen Confucian scholars came to see Your Majesty." "Where now?".

"The minister will arrange for the post to rest, and please ask Your Majesty to show me when the time comes?"

"Now that the military affairs are urgent, we will arrange for the court to meet tomorrow morning, and remember not to ask him to talk nonsense, if there is anything else, he can be killed."

"No! The ministers listened to the rumors of the Han Dynasty that Confucianism was in full swing in the Han Dynasty, and the Han Emperor respected Confucianism alone. The great Confucian family is full of hundreds, and now China is strong and weak, and Confucianism has the meaning of Beitou".

"These people, haven't they forgotten that I used the day to kill Confucianism? Those who tend to be inflammatory, not enough. In the afternoon, he ordered someone to take him around Summer Valley City, so that they would die blindly." "No! The minister will do it."
