Chapter 219: Roots

"Xiao Liangzi just said that he was disloyal, he can put this on anyone, but he can't put it on Liu Yuan. As the saying goes, the monarch has the monarch's outline, and the ministers have the minister's outline. If you can't keep the rules, how can you be worthy of the world, and how can you make your courtiers willingly loyal? Liu Yuan traveled thousands of miles to the south to save the king, such a great merit, but he had to be killed by the dove, is there any heavenly reason? If you don't kill the Son of Heaven on the spot, slaughtering the courtiers is the greatest loyalty! ”

The young man said loudly: "Then Yuan Shao held the Son of Heaven hostage, and the whole Dong Zhuo was second, is it loyalty?" Cao Ying's conspiracy to frame Shangguan and seize Yanzhou, is it loyalty? Yuan Shu is a straw bag, narrow-minded, can not tolerate people, I heard that now in Shouchun has been a lot of construction, actually to build the palace, is this loyalty? Liu Biao, Liu Yan's generation, where were Dong Zhuo when he was in the world of cholera? Is this loyalty? ”

"Only Liu Yuan, as the king of Yuyang, can personally go south and lead the army to rescue the Son of Heaven from fire and water, this is loyalty!"

"Compared to him, the rest of the people are not even as good as shit!"

The young man's words came out of his words, his face turned red, and his mood was very intense.

"Liu Yuan is also a royal family, and he is a descendant of Emperor Xiaowu, so he is naturally qualified to inherit the throne. Since there is no way to be mediocre today, why can't things replace it? To put it bluntly, it was a family affair of his Liu family, and Xiao Liangzi was very wrong in the name of disloyalty! ”

The child's little face was flushed, but he couldn't say anything to refute, so he only said: "Anyway, it's not pleasing to Liu Yuan!" ”

"Childish!"

The boy gave a childish glance and said disdainfully.

"You!" The child clenched his fists and wanted to step forward, but found that the two bodies were not in contrast, and he was afraid that he would not be able to fight, so he had to shake his fist angrily.

Listening to the two small refuting each other, the rest of the people were quite touched.

"This Liu Yuan is an anomaly." Pang Degong sighed at this time: "More than 20 years ago, the old man observed the stars and found that thirty years later, the world should be divided into three points. Unexpectedly, a few years later, a different star fell from the sky with purple gas, and the old man thought that the star was coming. Now it seems that this alien star is that Liu Yuan and Liu Zihong! ”

Although Pang Degong was sighing, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he was not unhappy at all because the world was beyond expectations.

"Ping Wuhuan Xianbei, break the six countries of Liaodong, collect the people of Hulu for their own use, and sinicize them, and now easily defeat hundreds of thousands of allied troops of Mobei Hulu, tsk, the merit is in the present generation, and the benefit is in the future!" Sima Hui also sighed: "I have some contact with Kong Beihai, and I learned from him that this Youzhou is now prosperous and prosperous, and the people are rich, which is a few steps higher than the prosperous era of the Han Dynasty!" ”

Pang Degong also nodded and said, "Brother Kang Cheng also has correspondence with the old man. According to what he said, there are fifteen million people in Youzhou alone! Appalling, simply appalling! At the peak of the Han Dynasty, there were only 50 million people, and Youzhou accounted for nearly thirty percent! Coupled with Jizhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou and the alien races that surrendered to Sinicization, the land under Liu Yuan's jurisdiction is afraid that there are not more than 20 million people! Now after a series of wars and natural disasters, the entire Central Plains and Jiangnan are afraid that there are only 20 million people! ”

"Exactly." Sima Hui continued: "If there is no such population base, if Youzhou is not rich, how can it afford to raise a million army, and how can it fight again and again without showing fatigue? ”

"So, the Central Plains Qunxiong is not Liu Yuan's opponent at all?" Huang Chengyan frowned.

"Exactly."

Pang Degong and Sima Hui nodded yes at the same time.

"Hahaha, how's it going? Xiao Liangzi, the teacher said so, what else do you have to quibble? The boy laughed. The boy looked depressed.

"Hmph, wait and see!" The boy clenched his fists and swore in his heart that he would not let this ugly man ride on his head!

Everyone talked for a while, drank some tea, and Pang Degong turned to the young men who had never spoken and were accompanying him: "You have already completed your talents, and it is time to go down the mountain to find a stage and display your abilities." After lunch, pack your bags and head down the mountain. As for which side to serve, the old man will not interfere, and you will choose for yourself. ”

Several young people bowed deeply, and after kneeling and bowing nine times, they became teachers, and then they went back to their rooms to get their luggage, and had lunch with the elders, and then went down the mountain.

Pang Degong looked at the teenagers and children who were still fighting there, and said with a smile: "You two, come here." ”

The two of them walked up to Pang Degong in an orderly manner, gave a salute, and listened to the teachings quietly.

"You're still young, and it's not time to argue about the general trend of the world. What's the point of verbal arguments? Five years. Pang Degong stretched out his hand and said, "On this Lumen Mountain, you still have to study for five years." After five years, let the two of you go down the mountain, and compete with practical actions! ”

"Five years?"

Zhuge Xuan on the side said confusedly: "With the current situation of Hebei, it is not difficult to go south within five years, and at that time, Liang'er and Pang Xian's nephew may be useless." ”

Pang Degong shook his head and did not speak.

Sima Hui said: "Throughout the past ten years, Liu Yuan has been unstable and steady. Whether it is Po Xianbei or Liaodong, they are all fully prepared before they are about to attack. Now that the battle of Mobei in Hebei has just been won, it is the best time to stabilize the fruit, and with Liu Yuan's person, he will definitely not attack the Central Plains at this time. Moreover, there is chaos in the Western Regions that needs to be managed, and there are Jizhou, Bingzhou and Liangzhou to be rebuilt, and within five years, there will definitely be no major war between the north and the south! ”

"I see."

Zhuge Xuan was stunned.

As a few people expected, Liu Yuan had no intention of going south immediately.

Although some subordinates persuaded him to take advantage of the great victory in the Battle of Mobei, he went south to pacify the Central Plains in one fell swoop. But it was denied by Liu Yuan.

In Liu Yuan's view, there are several reasons.

One is what Sima Hui said just now. The fruit needs to be stabilized.

Second, it is because the Central Plains is too chaotic.

How to say it, the ten princes of the Central Plains divided one side, and if they immediately went south, Liu Yuan thought it was too troublesome. It's better to wait until there are only one or two princes left in the Central Plains, and only one battle will be able to determine the situation, and there is no need to fight everywhere.

Although this is a bit incredible, Liu Yuan has absolute confidence. Even if the Central Plains is unified, he still has the strength to win a battle and conquer the country!

After Liu Yuan returned to Yuyang, he shifted the focus of the entire Youzhou work to people's livelihood.

Jizhou has gone through the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but it is dilapidated, no one lives for a hundred miles, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. Liu Yuan appointed Tian Feng as the pastor of Jizhou, in charge of the military and government of Jizhou, exterminating the bandits, suppressing the family, reclaiming the land, relocating the people, encouraging agriculture, animal husbandry and commerce, and so on, and so on, and tried all means to make Jizhou into another Youzhou in the shortest possible time.

And the state, Hu and Han live together. In particular, the Southern Xiongnu and a part of the Qiang people accounted for half of the population of the entire state. Liu Yuan appointed the full favor and annexed the state to assassinate the history, issued the national policy, and regarded the Hu people as inferior people, who had to work hard for three years and obtain certain merits, so that they could become Han nationality and become a real Han Chinese. He also suppressed the family, developed agriculture, animal husbandry and commerce, and the entire state began to gradually prosper.

There is also Liangzhou. The mixed living situation of Hu and Han in Liangzhou is even more complicated than that of the annexed state. There are many ethnic groups here, such as Qiang, Hu, and the races of the Western Regions, and even the Guishan and Daqin (ancient Roman) races in the extreme west. The issue of race is prominent and complex.

Liu Yuan appointed Ma Teng as the assassin and Cheng Yu as Ma Teng's deputy, issued ethnic policies, sorted out the chaos of Xiliang by various means, and tried to completely sinicize Xiliang and become a real Han rule.

Yuyang, Wangfu.

It was dark this day, and Liu Yuan, who had been busy all day, finally returned to the mansion.

As soon as I entered the door of the living room, I saw my mother sitting on the Taishi chair.

"Well, Mother, you're back." Liu Yuan's face was swept away, and he happily walked over and squatted in front of his mother.

"It's all the princes who are in charge of half of the country, why are they still like children?" Mother Liu said angrily.

"No matter what the child is, the child is always the mother's child." Liu Yuan said softly.

"Good!" Mother Liu was very happy, pulled Liu Yuan up, looked up and down carefully, and said, "I haven't seen my son for a long time, but he has matured a lot." ”

Liu's mother often lives in mountain villages outside the city and rarely goes to the city. And Liu Yuan has been running around again and again during this time, and he is so busy that the mother and son have indeed not seen each other for a long time.

"It's all the child's fault." Liu Yuan bowed his head and said: "When the world is peaceful, the child will always accompany his mother." ”

Liu Mu shook her head and said, "You are the king of Yuyang, and you can still win the world in the future, how can you say such childish words?" ”

At the beginning, Liu's mother did not agree with Liu Yuan's self-reliance. But later, the Son of Heaven actually wanted to kill Liu Yuan! How did this happen!? My son is my mother's heart! If anyone is not good for the son, can the mother manage the rest?

What the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, the son is the biggest!

Now that Liu Yuan has broken with the Son of Heaven, Liu's mother naturally can't stop him from winning the world, but is very supportive.

"But you're really busy these days, I can't help but talk about you!" Liu's mother's face sank, and she said: "The sage has a saying, self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world." You are already the king of Yuyang, and you know everything about this matter! ”

When Liu Yuan heard this, he was a little strange while reluctantly: "Why did my mother say this?" ”

"Humph!" Mother Liu snorted, but smiled, and said, "Zhao Ji is pregnant, and you still let her show her face, what kind of system has she become?" Although the words were reprimanded, they were very happy.

"Huh!?"

Liu Yuan was stunned.

"I, I've got a queen"

After more than 20 years of travel through the end of the Han Dynasty, he broke Wuhuan Xianbei, determined the subject country of Liaodong, and fought in all directions; Focus on people's livelihood and commerce, develop agriculture and animal husbandry, so that tens of millions of people often have smiling faces. But Liu Yuan always felt that there was a gap with this era.

Although he has Liu's mother's great maternal love, and although he married the talented girl Zhao Ji and Luo Shen Zhen Mi, his heart has been floating.

But at this moment, after suddenly hearing that there was, Liu Yuan suddenly merged with this piece of heaven and earth, and there was no barrier!

Isn't a person's life just for posterity?

No matter how the civilization of the ancestors developed, it was for the benefit of future generations. The ancestors conquered the heavens and the earth and gained vitality in the projectiles, wasn't it also for the sake of future generations and for the sake of continuation?

With descendants, there are roots!

With roots, there is hope!

Liu Yuan smiled, the smile was very sweet and real.

Mother Liu looked at her son quietly on the side, and a relieved smile appeared on her face.
