Chapter 118: Reprimand

Liu Yuan was named the king of Yuyang County, and from now on, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will respectfully call him 'Wangye', plus he is the general of Youzheng North, commanding the military power of the three states, and assassinating the history of Youzhou, controlling the politics of a state, it can be said that the power is so great that it is only under one person!

Although Liu Yuan was very happy in his heart, he always felt that Emperor Ling's move was quite meaningful.

After thinking about it, he really couldn't see it clearly, so Liu Yuan left it behind, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and he will know when the time comes.

Letting go of the doubts in his heart, he talked with Huangfu Song, He Jin and others, and the atmosphere gradually became warm.

Yuan Kui looked at the courtiers who were constantly drinking to Liu Yuan, and then looked at the few lonely people around him, and only felt extremely aggrieved and resentful. A pair of eyes stared at the ground, as if they were going to burn through the earth's crust, and the flames were raging.

"How can you make him better? How can you make him feel better?! ”

Under the sleeve robe, his hands were clenched, and his nails were pierced into the flesh.

However, this Yuan Kui is an old ginger in officialdom after all, old and strong, and he stabilized his mind in a moment. Seeing Liu Yuan leisurely, his mind changed, and he wanted to continue to make trouble for him.

I saw him stand up, straighten his robe, make a calm appearance, raise his wine glass and say to Liu Yuan: "The marquis has entered the king, the old man is here to congratulate, please drink this cup!" ”

Yuan Kui's move surprised the surrounding ministers, and secretly said that he was worthy of being an old minister, and he was really broad-minded. But Liu Yuan was vigilant.

"Hehe, old lady, please!"

Liu Yuan couldn't lose his demeanor in public, and he returned a glass with a smile.

Yuan Kui took a sip and said with a smile: "The old man heard that Hou Ye went south to clean up the thieves, fought several battles, and captured nearly a million prisoners, I don't know what Hou Ye plans to do with these thieves?" ”

Liu Yuan's heart jumped, and he said: "This is the king's business, so don't worry about the old lady." ”

"There's nothing to say, is there any secret that the prince can't say?"

These words are out of the mouth, and they are heart-wrenching.

"Heh," Liu Yuan smiled lightly and said: "Since the old lady cares so much, this king will roughly talk about it Well, Wangdu, Lunu, Anxi, Xiaquyang, Julu, Guangzong, Yecheng, roughly calculated, it is really as the old lady said, the capture of the Yellow Turban soldiers plus the old, weak, sick and disabled totaled one million. These captives were all sent to Youzhou by Benhou, why, did the old lady think that this king's move was inappropriate? ”

Millions, all the ministers, amazed again and again.

"Hehehe, this is a million people, isn't it one or two, can the prince afford it?" Yuan Kui coughed lightly twice, and said: "What's more, these thieves are not obedient to the king, they are rebellious, and they should be executed according to the law, in order to set an example, the prince has pardoned their crimes privately, I'm afraid it is not easy to explain to Your Majesty, right?" ”

"Hey, the old lady is serious, right?" Liu Yuan sneered and said, "It's just a million people, this king can't afford to raise them, so he will send troops to rob them!" Kill! There are cattle, sheep and horses on the grassland, which are very easy to take! ”

This sentence made the entire hall suddenly feel a little bloody. Yuan Kui couldn't help but shudder. I remembered that the king of Yuyang in front of me was a soldier who came out of the sea of blood in the mountain of corpses.

"This king admits that these yellow turban thieves are at fault, but the old lady said that they don't accept the king, hey, this king doesn't understand this."

"As the old saying goes, at the beginning of a person, the surname is good. This person is not born to understand things, they need to be educated, so the ancient saints and various schools came into being. And the government, that is, the Taifu and the ministers, is the executor who holds the authority of education. ”

"The root cause of the uncivilized people lies with you! Master Taifu! It lies in all the ministers! ”

"Yellow Turbans, you, are sinners! You have to be mostly responsible! ”

"Hey, you didn't do your duty yourself, but you pushed the consequences, this mistake, to these poor people, how did you do it? Yes? Still salivating with an old face, don't you make a big deal of nonsense here? ”

Yuan Kui's old face was flushed, but he was speechless.

"Most of you ministers should be from Confucianism, right? Do you remember the teachings of the first saints? Do you know the meaning of the spirit of the ancestors? ”

"I'm afraid most people choose to forget their surnames, right? Hey, let me, a martial artist, tell you today! ”

"Remember!"

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!"

"Old lady, let me ask you, who are you thinking for? For whom? Which saint did you inherit? How many years has it been peaceful? ”

Silent!

The whole hall was silent!

Even the military officers who were born in martial arts were red-faced by this, not to mention the civil officials from Confucianism.

"Good! You can say that again! ”

Emperor Ling's eyes were bright, he stood up with a shout, and shouted: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!" Well said wow! This is the essence of the spirit of the ancestors! ”

Cai Yong and some other inspirational officials who are committed to serving the country have a red face, as if they have found a lifelong pursuit, and they are speechless with excitement.

And Yuan Kui and the others, ashamed of their shameless self-esteem, hid their faces, bowed their heads, and did not dare to face Liu Yuan, face Emperor Ling, and face a martial artist on the opposite side.

"Huhuhuhu" Yuan Kui gasped violently, and it took a long time to suppress the shame and anger in his heart and calm down. But the back, which was still straight just now, was slightly bent.

"Lord Wang, don't change the topic, we're talking about you sheltering millions of thieves!"

"Hey," Liu Yuan looked at Yuan Kui with a sneer, seeing that he was uncomfortable, before he said: "Your Majesty, colleagues, this king has been planning a plan as early as a year or two ago, and now he only owes Dongfeng!" As long as these millions of people are gone, everything will be done! ”

"Two years ago, this king had already ordered people to establish five cities on the parallel line three hundred miles north of the border line of Youzhou under the pretext of facilitating the development of border commercial transactions! As long as the people move in, this area that is 300 miles wide and thousands of miles long will be the territory of my Han Dynasty! ”

He clenched his fists, and his majestic body was impassioned.

"Isn't it a punishment for these millions of people to defend against the enemy? Do you have to be like General Zhu Jun to drive the people into the water and drown them alive and alive to be satisfied?! ”

"Ah, I see!"

"Expand the territory, and make a thousand achievements!"

"I said that how did the champion prince risk a big disobedience and shelter the criminals, it turned out that it was for the sake of the empire, rare, rare!"

The Spirit Emperor was even more excited.

Although during his reign, the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, but if he could expand the territory, wouldn't he have the same merits as Emperor Xiaowu? Said that the ancestors and ancestors were seen below the back spring, isn't that Bei'er have face? !

The most important thing is that it is recorded in the history books, which will be passed down through the ages, and he is the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Hong, is the first emperor of the ages!

What a temptation for an emperor?

"Good, good! Zihong, you have done a good job, I am very relieved, very relieved! ”

The Spirit Emperor happily drank a few cups one after another.

And Yuan Kui still held on.

"Lord Wang, why don't you report such a big matter to the court and decide privately? If you do this, is there still a Son of Heaven in your eyes, and is there any Manchu Dynasty civil and military?! ”

"Hey, Taifu!" Emperor Ling was unhappy, and said: "Zihong's action is a secret decree issued by me, so don't hold on to it!" ”

It seems that Emperor Ling was happy and took this matter over.

When Yuan Kui heard this, he was completely wilted

At the end of the banquet, the civil and military officials withdrew from the palace in twos and threes, while Liu Yuan walked with Cao Ying and Cai Yong.

Cai Yong and Cao Ying looked at Liu Yuan's eyes, which could be said to be admiration.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations"

Cai Yong has been savoring this famous sentence for the ages, but he feels that it will never be boring or thorough.

"Brother Xian, I really obeyed you for my brother!" Cao Ying shook his head and said, "You are really hidden, a blockbuster, a blockbuster!" ”

Liu Yuan looked at Cao Ying hesitantly and said, "You only know this?" ”

While the three of them were walking, they were about to leave the palace gate, but they saw Zhang Rang hurriedly coming over.

"Lord Wang, the old slave has been waiting for a long time."

Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and was immediately relieved, Zhang Rang was here, it must have been Emperor Ling's orders. Seeing this, Cao Ying and Cai Yong hurriedly said goodbye to him and left the palace.

"Marquis Zhang, Your Majesty has something to explain?"

"The King of Yuyang is really quick to think." Zhang Rang took out a well-sealed paper slip from his sleeve robe, handed it to Liu Yuan, and said, "This is the secret decree that Your Majesty asked the old slave to hand over to the prince, please watch it carefully after the prince returns." ”

Liu Yuan took the secret decree and nodded.

"Also, Your Majesty asked the old slave to convey a sentence - this world will always be the world of the Liu family!"

Liu Yuan sank slightly, and said, "Please tell Your Majesty that Your Majesty will keep in mind Your Majesty." ”

"Well, then, the old slave takes his leave." Zhang Rang bowed slightly and said, "The prince has nothing to do, but he can go to the house to talk about it." ”

"Lord Hou invited, how could this king refuse? I have time to bother and say goodbye. ”

Liu Yuan walked out of the palace gate and did not go to Cai's mansion, but went straight back to the palace where the plaque of the champion Hou's mansion had not been replaced.

After all, a lot of things happened tonight, and Liu Yuan needed to think quietly alone.

In the study, Liu Yuan lit the oil lamp, sat on the chair, and took out the secret decree given to him by Zhang Rang from his arms.

"Zihong, I have only one request for you - after a hundred years of me, the prince association will ascend the throne! Remember, I can put you on top, and I can take you down! Also, even if Xie'er doesn't have the chance to ascend the throne as the emperor, I don't want the Liu family's world to fall into the hands of others, you, remember! ”

Liu Yuan closed the secret decree and closed his eyes slightly.

Emperor Ling's words, how could he not know?

Let him be in power, and the ultimate goal is to support the prince's association to ascend to the throne.

Moreover, Emperor Ling is not deaf or blind, I am afraid that he also saw the crumbling of the world, and hoped to leave a strong backing for the Liu family.

Also, Liu Yuan did not believe that as an emperor, he would be so rash to seal the king and delegate power, but should set up such a banner as Liu Yuan, so that Liu Yuan and other forces in the DPRK and China would confront each other in order to achieve balance. It cannot be ruled out that Emperor Ling is letting Liu Yuan attract the attention of others, and he is afraid that there are some means to do it in secret-just like conniving at the Yellow Turban Uprising.

Rubbing his head, Liu Yuan sighed.

Although he is also smart, he is not a strategist after all, and he is still a little powerless to think too much.

"Old Classic."

The door creaked open, and Dian Wei's majestic figure walked in.

"Young Master."

"You immediately sent a letter to Youzhou, and asked Jia Wenhe to come to Luoyang immediately and plan for me."

In a dark area like Luoyang, I am afraid that Jia Wen and this poisoner are the most open.

Dian Wei nodded: "I'll do it right away, but young master, it's been three watches, you go and rest." ”

Liu Yuan smiled, punched Dian Wei, and said, "Go right away, you can rest early." ”
