Chapter 65: New Year's Eve

The brothers of the Yuan family lost face in front of everyone, so naturally they would not swallow their anger.

"Liu Yuan, you are in the company of eunuchs, and you also have the face to talk and laugh in front of us?!"

Yuan Shu was relieved by Liu Yuan, but he didn't appreciate it, seeing that Liu Yuan and others were staggered, the more they talked, the happier they became, and their hearts were full of jealousy, and they actually popped out such a sentence.

At this moment, all the sounds in the restaurant disappeared. Everyone looked at Yuan Shu, who was flushed and jealous, looked at Yuan Shao, who was expressionless, and then looked at Cao Ying, who was faintly sneering, and finally looked at Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan's face was indifferent, as if he had never heard this, which made people unable to understand his emotions.

"Hehe, Brother Highway, what you say, are you going too far?"

Liu Yuan smiled, didn't even look at Yuan Shu, poured another cup to himself, and drank it all.

"Do you dare to admit it? Eunuchs! ”

Yuan Shu's face flushed with anger from Liu Yuan's disregard.

"Did I say I wouldn't admit it?" Liu Yuan put down the wine glass gently, still light and light.

"Haha, you admit it! The eunuch who is harming the world, Liu Yuan, get out of here immediately, you are not welcome! ”

Yuan Shu was arrogant, as if he had settled Liu Yuan. However, the rest of the people did not follow suit, and only stared at Liu Yuan with a pair of eyes to see what he could explain.

"Did I say admit it?"

Liu Yuan's face changed, and he smiled: "Yuan Shu, you said that I am a eunuch, there must be a proof, I am not a son from a big family like you!" ”

"Hmph, isn't that obvious?" Yuan Shu sneered again and again: "Where did your Yuyang Taishou come from?" Bought it! Where did Yuyang Hou come from? Bought it! It's there for all to see! ”

"Haha Yuan Shu, I heard that you are a straw bale, hiss, when I see you today, you really live up to your name, haha" After Liu Yuan heard this, he actually laughed, not only did he get angry, but laughed at Yuan Shu.

"I, Liu Yuan, have an official title, which is sealed by the Son of Heaven, and I have that holy decree to testify." Liu Yuan's face was straight, he arched his hand in the direction of the imperial city, and said, "How did it come to your Yuan Shu's mouth and become a bought?" Yuan Shu, you are a big sin! ”

"Besides, Yuan Shu, I heard that your Yuan family is the most diligent in buying officials, hehe, what do you want to do? Want to control all the official positions of the Great Han? Want to rebel?! ”

Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's face was so blue that he couldn't imagine that Liu Yuan would hit him upside down.

The sarcasm on Cao Ying's face was even heavier, and he drank cup after cup, sighing in his heart, the two brothers of the Yuan family were actually his little hair, how could they be so stupid?

"Besides, I, Liu Yuan, am the official who bought it, so what? You Yuan Shuyi are not my elders Liu Yuan, the second is not the minister in power, and the third is not His Majesty the Emperor, what qualifications do you have to count me down? ”

"I, Liu Yuan, am indeed an official who bought it, but I am worthy of the Son of Heaven and the people of Limin, with a clear conscience! Unlike some things, eating the best, using the best, relying on their own power, and doing nonsense, not only are they not the pillars of the Han Dynasty, but they are moths and waste! ”

"You!" Liu Yuan pointed at Yuan Shu and drank: "You are such a piece of waste wood!" ”

"I, Liu Yuan, sit with you, it's an insult!"

Yuan Shu's face was red and purple, purple was blue, green was green, and a pair of eyes almost stood out. He stretched out his fingers and pointed at Liu Yuan tremblingly, but he couldn't say a word.

Yuan Shao was better, but the resentment that couldn't be concealed stared at Liu Yuan fiercely, as if he wanted to swallow him in one gulp.

Cao Ying accepted the ridicule of the Yuan family brothers, and a pair of eyes bloomed, only staring at Liu Yuan firmly.

Liu Yuan's words left everyone speechless. Many children of powerful people even felt that Liu Yuan was scolding him. But there is no way to refute it. Because what Liu Yuan said is the truth.

The originally lively banquet cooled down in an instant.

It is a fact that Liu Yuan bought an official, this is known to everyone. But he has merit!

The officials who spent money to buy them, and as a result, their merits are more than those of the three princes and nine kings, and even more than that, how can this not make these sons and grandfathers feel hot? Who are they to criticize and ridicule others?

A good banquet is over.

Liu Yuan and Cao Ying walked on the street, and the two were silent.

Long.

Cao Ying spoke.

"Brother Xian, Brother Xian, you really have a hand!" Cao Ying sighed.

"Originally, my brother wanted to help you, but in the end I was worried in vain."

"Lao Cao, that Yuan family brother is just a straw bag, where can I use you to make a move? But I dismissed the face of the Yuan brothers in front of you, you won't blame me, right? ”

Liu Yuan said with a smile.

The corners of Cao Ying's mouth curled, and a hint of mockery and helplessness appeared on his face: "Although I and the original two are small, but now that the two of them provoke you first, I can't look past it, let alone you?" I didn't expect that the two of them would be so unwise."

As he spoke, Cao Ying shook his head.

After the two finished speaking, they fell silent again.

Liu Yuan was very unaccustomed to it, and couldn't help but say, "Old Cao, where do you want to go now?" ”

"There's nowhere to go." Cao Ying spread his hands and said, "It's still early, let's go back to our own homes, I'm tired today." ”

Liu Yuan nodded, hugged his fists with Cao Ying, turned around and parted ways.

When he got home, Liu Yuan knew that a message was sent in the palace asking him to enter the palace, saying that there were some unknown places in the Son of Heaven's boxing, and he wanted him to give him advice.

I had no choice but to ride on the rhubarb and go straight to the palace.

As soon as I arrived outside the palace gate, I saw Zhang Rang again.

"Marquis Zhang, I'm sorry to bother you to wait here again."

Liu Yuan touched the back of his head and said.

"Let's go," Zhang Rang smiled slightly: "Your Majesty is still waiting for you in the back garden." ”

Liu Yuan nodded and followed.

When I arrived at the Imperial Garden, I saw Emperor Ling, Empress He, the Prince's Debate, and the Prince's Association all there.

Liu Yuan stepped forward and lost his respect. Emperor Ling said: "Zihong, your boxing technique is really good, I have only practiced for two days, and I feel that this spirit is very good, and my body is much better!" ”

Although Tai Chi is wonderful, its special surname of slow effect is known to modern people. Emperor Ling now has a ruddy complexion and a wide spirit, which is naturally the credit of the blood of the soldier master.

"Zihong, I intend to let you teach the two princes to practice boxing, what do you think?"

Liu Yuan said with a smile: "Your Majesty has an order, how dare Yuan disobey?" ”

"That's good!" Emperor Ling waved his hand, and Zhang Rang stepped forward and handed Liu Yuan a token.

"This is a token to enter and leave the palace at will, Zihong can come to the palace more if he has nothing to do."

Liu Yuan took the token, clasped his fists, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." ”

In the meantime, Emperor Ling took Zhang Rang and turned around and left, leaving only the queen and the two princes.

Liu Yuan nodded at the empress, walked to the two princes and squatted down, looked at the two princes with a smile, and said, "Two highnesses, practicing boxing is a chore, can your highness persevere?" ”

"Yes!" The prince replied loudly. Debate is older, more sensible, and knows Liu Yuan's ability from Emperor Ling, and when he learns that Liu Yuan teaches boxing, he naturally has a happy face, and a pair of dark eyes, staring at Liu Yuan, pure and flawless.

The prince is only four or five years old, and he is a little timid, holding the queen with one small hand and the prince with the other, hiding behind the prince. However, a pair of eyes were still staring at Liu Yuan very curiously.

In this way, Liu Yuan often walked in the palace and taught the two princes boxing techniques. In order to reflect the effect, even at the expense of blood transformation.

But the prince is a prince after all, and he has been clothed and fed since he was a child, but he really can't stand the pain and can't become a master. But this body is getting better day by day. The surname is also becoming more and more cheerful day by day.

As the teacher of the two, Liu Yuan not only teaches boxing, but also tells them the truth of life and fables with profound meanings in his spare time. The two princes were deeply pleased, and they were very close to Liu Yuan, and even obeyed their words.

In addition, Liu Yuan hated the filth of the palace deeply, and even tried to deepen the relationship between the two brothers, just to avoid fighting for power and profit in the future.

In Liu Yuan's opinion, as long as Emperor Ling does not die, the Han Dynasty will not be chaotic. And now that Emperor Ling has taken the essence blood, his body is getting better day by day, and there will never be anything that happened in history when he died of illness in 189. Then the two princes would not have wandered around and fled and suffered a lot as they did in history. Instead, he was under the care of Emperor Ling until he took over the throne. Among them, because of the struggle for power and profit among relatives, families, and eunuchs, there will definitely be an incident of seizing the heir, and what Liu Yuan did was to prepare for this matter.

Of course, whether there are other deep meanings in this, Liu Yuan himself is also vague in his heart.

Every time Liu Yuan taught the two princes, Empress He would sit elegantly on the side, without speaking, just watching quietly. As time passed, the most powerful woman in the Han Dynasty became interested in Liu Yuan.

I don't know what will happen if this continues

Youzhou, Yuyang.

Guo Jia is receiving a guest.

Who?

Mo Family Mo Sect Master.

It turned out to be from there, Liu Yuan said that he had moved the elders and sect masters of the Mo family, and the Mo family moved collectively and went straight to Yuyang.

But because of the big family and big business, it is naturally not faster than a single ride, and it was not until the end of the year that he arrived in Yuyang.

After settling down a little, Sect Master Mo took Liu Yuanyu's pendant and reported to the Taishou Mansion.

Guo Jia couldn't help but be overjoyed when he learned that it was the Mo family who came to vote, and hurriedly put down his work and rushed to meet him.

The two exchanged views on the construction of Yuyang, the construction of Youzhou, and the development of various technologies, and then Guo Jia immediately assigned a compound as the Mo family's residence in Yuyang City.

Sect Master Mo breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

Since the eldest son moved out, the sect master has always suffered from gains and losses along the way, for fear that he will not be reused when he arrives in Yuyang. After talking to Guo Jia and getting the station, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief and showed a smile on his face.

Sending the Mo Sect Master out of the door, Guo Jia spread out his palm, looked at the jade pendant lying in his palm, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

"The main fruit is very human, even the Mo family, all of them have been served in a pot, hehe"

"Someone!" Guo Jia put away the jade pendant and drank it.

"Gather all the adults at once, I have something important to discuss."

After a while, Fu Zhi and the others arrived at the living room of the Taishou Mansion one after another.

"Fengxiao, what's the matter?"

Frustrated Professor picked up the tea bowl and drank it all: "I still have a lot of documents to deal with!" ”

Several others nodded yes.

"Hehe," Guo Jia smiled lightly and said, "I said that I am looking for everyone to come over today, one of them is because the Mo family came to vote and let me know."

"Mo family?!" Tian Feng immediately interrupted Guo Jia's words and said, "Is that the Mo family who loves and does not attack?" ”

Guo Jia shrugged his shoulders and nodded.

"Good, good! With the Mo family, the construction of Youzhou can be accelerated by a big step! ”

Tian Feng was frustrated and surprised at the same time.

"Second, I hope that you can finish the work at hand by the end of the year! I don't know if I have faith? ”

Everyone looked at each other and said categorically: "Yes!" ”

"Before the end of the year, the basic work will be completed, decrees will be issued, the population will be counted, and the land will be measured and distributed, so that the people can be stable and ready for the large-scale construction in the coming year." Guo Jia said: "The lord once said that during the New Year's holidays, he should go to the countryside to express condolences. So I want to ask, how is the development of Zhang's breeding industry? ”

Zhang Tu took refuge in Liu Yuan, and became an official who controlled animal husbandry, one domesticated horses for Youzhou; Second, we must breed pigs, cattle and sheep on a large scale. He is an important member of the frustrated subordinates. At this time, Zhang Tu had not arrived, and Guo Jia naturally asked frustrated.

After pondering for a long time, he said: "According to the statistics of the previous days, there are 150,000 adult cattle and sheep, and 780,000 minors; more than 70,000 excellent horses (not counting war horses in the army), more than 40,000 horse calves; There are more than 100,000 pigs and dolphins that can eat them. ”

"Good!" Guo Jia nodded and said: "Now I order, after the population is counted, all the officials of Youzhou County will go to the countryside to condole." Each household was given one ox, two sheep, and half a pig and a porpoise. Starting from Yuyang, it radiates to the surrounding area. If it's not enough, replace it with copper coins! ”

"We must gather the hearts of the people as soon as possible and let Youzhou be ironclad."

"Also, in this process, Brother Yuan Hao's law enforcement department must do a good job, remove and investigate the sludge of corrupt officials, and no one will slip through the net!"

The meeting in Youzhou, without the chairmanship of Liu Yuan, quickly set the tone, and at the same time sent someone to pass the content of the meeting to Luoyang and report to Liu Yuan.

At this time, the merchant group of the Han Dynasty also moved.

Because, the Zhen family, the Central Plains Commercial Bank, the Huaxia Commercial Bank, the three giants, many commercial banks and chambers of commerce with some financial resources have sent representatives to prepare to go to Yuyang.

It is the strategy that Liu Yuan set half a year ago - the New Year's business tea party.

181 years is destined to be a year for Youzhou to take off!
