In the first year of Tianxi, in early October, Yizhou Mu Liu Yu gathered the remnants of the army to attack the Hanzhong area. Under the command of Zhang Ren www.biquge.info nearly 60,000 Yizhou soldiers killed Zhang Lu by surprise, hundreds of people in Hanzhong were displaced, and the county town was in danger under the hooves of the Yizhou army. Zhang Lu, who got the news, led the army back to Hanzhong as soon as possible, but the difficulty of Shu Road was also well reflected at this moment, and it was obviously impossible for Zhang Lu to rescue Hanzhong.

In the first year of Tianxi, on October 5, it was said that Zheng, the southern part of Hanzhong County, was surrounded by Zhang Ren's army. In order to avoid Zhang Lu's endless death, Liu Yu absolutely only besieged and did not attack, and asked the defenders of Yangping Pass to temporarily give up the checkpoint and let Liu Yu's army pass through. If Zhang Lu doesn't follow, then there is nothing to say, no matter how good Liu Yu's temper is, he still has his own principles on major issues related to life and death.

In the first year of Tianxi, October 10th.

Under Liu Xuan's acquiescence, Zhang Lu ordered the switch to be released. In fact, Liu Xuan, Zhang Lu and others also knew in their hearts that even if they caught Liu Yu, they would not dare to attack him. Liu Yu is Liu Tai's uncle, and he helped Liu Tai during his rise. If Liu Miao and Zhang Lu really dared to attack Liu Yu, then the Tianci Army, which had temporarily stopped its southward movement, would inevitably invade the south frantically and completely smash the forces of Liu Miao and Zhang Lu and other princes.

In the first year of Tianxi, on October 15, Liu Yu led 60,000 Yizhou soldiers to leave Hanzhong and stepped into the Sanfu region. At this moment, the Sanfu area has long been under Liu Tai's rule, how can Zhang Jaw, who is temporarily responsible for garrisoning Sanfu, dare to take it lightly? Under the grand welcome of Zhang Jaw, it took nearly half a month for Liu Yu to enter Chang'an City, which had been absent for a long time. Looking at the magnificent city wall of Chang'an City, Liu Yu sighed greatly at the changes in the world, of course, this is another story.

The first year of Tianxi, October 22.

Hundreds of thousands of heavenly troops gathered in Luoyang, and the god king who was Liu Tai personally presided over a large-scale ancestor worship ceremony. The object of this ceremony is not the ancestral spirits, all of them are the ancestors of the Liu family. Among them, there are also famous generals of the Han Dynasty since the beginning of the country, such as the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty who made great contributions during the founding of the country, and the great generals of the Liu Che period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

To tell the truth, it is not appropriate to preside over this kind of ceremony as Liu Tai at all, and if you are qualified, Liu Miao is the only one today. But now that Liu Miao has been driven to Sichuan, is it possible to let Liu Miao come back? In fact, Liu Tai's move is a temptation! Who to tempt? Naturally, it is the attitude of the Han clan and the clan of the lords, as well as the princes of the world.

The vast majority of the people support Liu Tai's claim to be emperor, but there are still a small number of people, such as the people in some remote places in southern Xinjiang who maintain a neutral opinion. Of course, many of these factors were due to the fact that the Gate Lords clan were curbing Liu Tai's fame from spreading to these places.

Luoyang, Deyang Palace.

Dianyang Hall is the main hall of the North Palace, the exclusive sleeping palace of the Son of Heaven, and there is a Dianyang Gate in front of the palace. There are east pavilions and west pavilions between Deyang Hall and Dianyang Gate. Deyang Hall is built when the North Palace was built during the Ming Emperor period, the largest palace in the whole North Palace, the building is quite similar to the front hall of Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City in the Western Han Dynasty, and it is magnificent in the magnificent buildings of the Eastern Capital.

Now that the palace is lost, Liu Tai should not be qualified to live in the palace, but in order to test the thoughts of the people in the world, Liu Tai accepted the opinions of hundreds of officials and temporarily placed Xingyuan in the North Palace. It is worth mentioning that Liu Tai's dormitory is the Deyang Palace. The extremely luxurious Deyang Hall did give Liu Tai a great impact, and compared with the Deyang Palace, Liu Tai suddenly felt that the Divine King Mansion seemed a little stingy.

Of course, the palace and the palace can never be compared. Even though Liu Tai greatly exceeded his expectations when he built the Divine King Mansion earlier, and was ready for the future, when he really entered the Luoyang Palace, Liu Tai understood what the real luxury meant.

In fact, today's Beigong is still a bit lacking in luxury compared with the Lingdi period. During the period of Emperor Ling, the luxury of the two palaces in the north and south was unimaginable, even if it was compared to jade bricks and stones everywhere. The remaining intact building of today's North Palace is also a Deyang Palace. Of course, it is not that all the other palaces have been destroyed, in fact, most of the palaces are still very gorgeous except for a little failure during the period.

The reason why the luxury of Deyang Hall can be maintained is really thanks to Yuan Shao and Liu Xuan. Before Yuan Shao was named the Marquis of Luoyang, the situation in Luoyang City was very bad. At that time, due to Dong Zhuo's tyranny, mourning was everywhere, and the people were not happy, so some people put their thoughts on the palace, but fortunately, the four hundred years of the Han dynasty still have a place in the hearts of the people, except for looking for some food and removing some decorations, there was not too much destruction.

And Yuan Shao was named the Marquis of Luoyang, and Luoyang City justifiably became Yuan Shao's governing place. Yuan Shao's surname is luxurious, which has something to do with Yuan Shao's background. Yuan Shao, who was in charge of Luoyang at that time, saw that the palace was so dilapidated, and in order to save the face of the Han family, he could only grit his teeth and spend a lot of money to send people to reorganize the palace.

However, because of Liu Tai, Yuan Shao never thought of entering the palace and enjoying the taste of the emperor. Yuan Shao knows very well that as long as Liu Tai is not dead today, then no one is qualified to sit on the throne, and those who want to sit on it will definitely end up miserable.

Although Yuan Shao is sometimes a little arrogant and ambitious, he often tries to sit on the supreme throne, but Yuan Shao is not an idiot, and it is impossible to do the stupid thing of quarreling and exterminating the clan.

Thanks to Yuan Shao's huge investment in repairing the North and South Palaces, otherwise the Han Emperor Liu Xuan and the current Liu Taike would have no place to stay. Now that he has entered Luoyang, how could Liu Tai not try the taste of the dragon bed? However, the palace at this time did not have the scene of a group of palace maids like the Emperor Ling period, otherwise Liu Tai really wanted to be gorgeous once.

"Father, once every time a child overlooked the Deyang Palace, he always felt that supreme, but now when he comes here, he feels that it is just like that." Liu Tai sat on a dragon-patterned futon, and in front of him was a Ding furnace exuding a strange fragrance, and the Ding furnace was engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns. Generally speaking, most of the decorations of the imperial palace have dragon patterns, and the dragon, representing the supremacy of the emperor.

"Well, how is it not true that of fatherhood? Time has passed, and my father remembers that before the death of the first emperor in the past year, he still had a long relationship with his father in this hall, but he didn't think that in a blink of an eye, the first emperor had passed away for three years. Now Liu Yan's temples are white, his eyes are a little hazy, and everything he sees is vague. It seems that Liu Yan's expression is very emotional, with a little pride in his emotion, looking at Liu Tai's gaze, there is not only softness, but also a hint of relief.

"First Emperor" muttered softly at the corner of his mouth, and Liu Tai naturally understood who the First Emperor Liu Yan was referring to. For Liu Hong, Liu Tai is not a little grateful in admiration. If it weren't for Liu Hong, would Liu Tai be able to do it today? Maybe he couldn't find the edge that had been rejected by the officials for a long time.

Liu Tai has been wondering why Liu Hong trusts himself so much. It stands to reason that as an emperor, there is always a curtain between you and others, and even if you trust each other, you can't be as long as Liu Hong. You must know that what Liu Hong did for Liu Tai should not be what an emperor should do at all!

But what if you wonder? Emperor Ling is dead, Zhang Rang is dead, Jian Shuo is dead, all those who know Emperor Ling's true thoughts are dead, since the answer can never be found, there is no need for Liu Tai to do that mediocre thing to disturb himself.

"By the way, how is Brother Zhang now? Now Brother Zhang thinks that he has grown up. Smiling, I saw Liu Tai asking Liu Yan who was sitting on a futon not far away. Although there is not much ink on Liu Zhang in history, and most of them are belittling words about Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang is Liu Tai's nominal younger brother after all, and when Liu Tai was in Luoyang in the past, he also promised that Liu Zhang would "cover" him for the rest of his life, and Liu Taizhong, who had always kept his promises, failed to regret it?

"Zhang'er?" When Liu Tai mentioned Liu Zhang, Liu Yan's expression was obviously a little disgusted! As Liu Zhang's father, Liu Yan would actually hate Liu Zhang? How can it be? You must know that in history, Liu Yan passed the position to Liu Zhang, and if you dislike Liu Tai's nominal brother Liu Fan, it's almost the same. According to the intelligence of the second group of dragons and tigers, over the years, Liu Fan has used Liu Tai's name to make a fortune, and even some things have made Liu Yan, who regards the people like mustards, angry half to death, so you can imagine what kind of goods Liu Fan is.

"This son doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, he likes some poetry, calligraphy and painting all day long, and he originally wanted the father to let the child give him an official position, but now, hum!" Liu Yan's expression was ugly. It is also understandable that according to historical records, Liu Zhang is extremely keen on calligraphy and painting, but Liu Zhang's surname is still good, at least in Liu Tai's opinion.

In history, Liu Bei transferred troops to attack Chengdu, and Liu Zhang, under the threat of Ma Chao, decided to surrender the county. The people have been fighting for three years, and those who have ointment the grass and grass are so good, how can they be at peace? Then the city surrendered, and the crowd was full of tears. Liu Bei took all his belongings and the seal of General Zhenwei.

Although it is said in history that Liu Zhang is cowardly and less assertive, he has a benevolent heart. When Liu Zhang was the pastor of Yizhou, he made Shu rich, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, did not carry out any large-scale wars, and implemented standard benevolent governance. Don't doubt that at that time, Zhang Lu repeatedly invaded the Shuzhong region, but he was always blocked outside the Xiameng Pass and could not go further, so it is said that during the nearly 20-year reign of Liu Yan and Liu Zhang's father and son, there was no really nerve-wracking cholera in Shuzhong.

Why, then, can it be said that "the people without grace"? The fact that Kaesong surrendered is enough to show his benevolence. If Liu Zhang is a person with a heart for power, how can he give up the huge Yizhou? You know, there were still 30,000 garrisons in Chengdu at that time!

And Liu Zhang is not a person who is greedy for pleasure and has no way to be desolate. If he was born in the peaceful years, he was determined to be a good minister for the benefit of one party. The rule of Shuzhong has always been uncertain, and Chen Shou's evaluation is inevitably biased. In fact, Liu Bei had the intention of killing Liu Zhang from the beginning, but he was afraid that he would lose the heart of the world. Later Zhuge Liang said that Liu Bei should be strictly governed in Shu, and there was also some intention to suppress the people's anger. Heroes were born in troubled times, and many talents were buried, so it can only be said that Liu Zhangsheng was born in the wrong era, and he was a character eclipsed by the brilliance of many heroes in troubled times.

He was benevolent and understood the suffering of the people, which many lords in ancient times could not match. Liu Zhang's failure lies in listening to the words of others and being less assertive. But the words that really worked for him were not adopted. It was also he who achieved Liu Bei's hegemony. His surname is destined to make him unable to become a hero in troubled times, and he can only settle for one side, which is really regrettable!

At this moment, history has completely changed, and the arrival of Liu Tai has changed the lives of many princes, and Liu Zhang is naturally changing. In Liu Tai's view, there is nothing wrong with Liu Zhang's love of calligraphy and painting, if Liu Zhang is the kind of person who is greedy for power, maybe Liu Tai will be a little troubled.

"Why does my father force Zhang'er?" A faint sentence expressed Liu Tai's decision in his heart about the direction of Liu Zhang's life. I saw Liu Tai continue: "Father also understands that the child does not like the clan and relatives to abuse power, there is nothing wrong with Brother Zhang's move, and my father didn't find out, the reason why Brother Zhang is like this is also because I understand that as an elder brother, I don't want my family to be involved in the court, right?" ”

Liu Yan sat there stunned and looked at Liu Tai, but Liu Yan still couldn't imagine how resourceful Liu Yan was, Liu Tai actually directly cut off the future career of Liu Yan and Liu Zhang, including Liu Zhang! Liu Tai's meaning couldn't be clearer, the only choice for Liu Zhang and the others in the second half of their lives is to be a carefree marquis, as for the others, don't even think about it!

"Hey Tai'er, if there is no clan and relatives to help, what forces will be able to balance the palace attendants in the future? Could it be that Tai'er wants to follow the old path of the previous emperors? "The Eastern Han Dynasty was a turbulent dynasty, and most of the imperial rights were sidelined, and the many eunuchs who held these rights, Liu Yan, as an old clan, had gone through several emperors, how could he not understand the important surnames of clan relatives and relatives to the imperial court?

"Relatives? Imperial clan? Liu Tai looked at Liu Yan and smiled faintly, and said without leaving a little room: "The child decided to replace the eunuch position with a martial girl, and issued an edict strictly ordering the harem, maids, and close servants not to interfere in politics. ”

Replace eunuchs with maids!! Liu Tai had already customized the Fengwei system before he went south, and he thought it was also to prepare for becoming emperor in the future. However, Feng Wei is not a foolproof solution, after all, women are ruthless, and they are a hundred times more powerful than those eunuchs who are neither male nor female, such as Wu Zetian is a good example.

Liu Tai has always hated eunuchs, and the method of castrating people's surnames has always been resisted by Liu Tai. In fact, many years ago, when Liu Hong crowned Liu Tai as the god king, an official proposed to prepare some eunuchs to serve in the harem, but Liu Tai rejected this proposal on the spot. And issued a strict order, except for irreversible natural injuries, no one is allowed to make a living from the palace.

At the beginning, Liu Tai was crowned as the god king, and the turmoil caused was very big, and even some people who couldn't survive castrated their children as soon as possible, ready to be sent to the royal family, and dreamed of the Spring and Autumn Festival, dreaming that their children could one day become a high-ranking and powerful eunuch like the Ten Standing Servants. However, all this came to naught after Liu Tai's edict was issued.

Don't believe it, although the people of this era hate the Ten Standing Servants to the core, but at the same time, who doesn't want a high-ranking and powerful Ten Standing Servants to benefit the family? As long as you think about the huge heritage of the Xiahou family, you have to give the child to Cao Teng, who was a high-ranking and powerful person in the Hengdi period, for adoption, you can see the true surname of human beings.

"How does this make Liu Yan, who was pale, almost vomited blood, Liu Tai not only reformed the ancestral system, but even the eunuchs and relatives wanted to abandon it. Although Liu Yan does not have a good impression of eunuchs and relatives, after all, this is a system of nearly 400 years in the Han Dynasty, how can it be said that it will be abolished?

Of course, even if Liu Tai wants to contain the problem of relatives, it is very difficult. You must know that as an emperor, most of the concubines selected are the children of the big clan, and behind the children of these big clans, there are more or less relatives of the court members, if Liu Tai marries someone else's daughter in order to avoid dictatorship, he will abolish the official position of the family, who will agree?

The most important thing is that there are many relatives of officials in Northern Xinjiang at present, such as the Zhen family, such as the Mi family, and the Huang family and other families! These people are an important part of the composition of Northern Xinjiang, even if Liu Tai doesn't want to have a situation where his relatives are dictatorial, he can't easily attack the heroes. In fact, Liu Yan misunderstood Liu Tai's meaning.

Curbing foreign relatives does not mean that foreign relatives should be abolished. Liu Tai means to reduce the privileges of relatives as much as possible, such as what uncle of the country, what title of the country's abbot can be completely unnecessary. Of course, a polite salutation in private is a little bit, but the official title is canceled.

In order to avoid as much as possible a situation in which relatives hold power. Liu Tai initially decided that from now on, all families that marry their daughters into the palace will no longer be allowed to contact their children privately. Even at a specific time of meeting, these concubines were not allowed to talk too much about the palace, and if they were found to be discussing the regime at that time, they would not only be stripped of their titles and sent to the cold palace, but also implicated the entire family.

Severe, extremely severe! In order to avoid the situation of Wu Zetian and the Empress Dowager Cixi, Liu Tai can be said to have cut off all roads for the harem to interfere in politics. Anyone who dares to interfere in the government will not only be thrown into the cold palace, but the family to which he belongs will also be implicated, isn't this a human life?

However, Liu Tai's idea has not been officially implemented, and it is not the time yet, even if the national policy is to be set, it will not be until the day when he officially ascends the throne.

"How not?" Liu Tai looked at Liu Yan with both eyes, although Liu Yan was Liu Tai's father. But Liu Tai will never allow any phenomenon of being too emperor, if Liu Yan thinks that he can influence Liu Tai's thoughts, it is a big mistake. Liu Tai, not the real Liu Tai!

"For the inheritance of my Han family, but also for the continuation of Chinese civilization, the child not only restricts relatives, eunuchs, and clans, but also establishes various cabinets and decentralizes the power to hundreds of officials. Could it be that a mouth can be sharper than a knife? Liu Tai's expression looked extremely confident, and it could even be said to be a little crazy. From this passage, I heard that Liu Tai actually intended to set up a cabinet administrative body!!
