Chapter 175: The Discussion of the Symposium
"However, there are still many thieves, before the lieutenant came, I often groaned, and said to the prime minister: 'If you don't annihilate all the thieves in the black and western valleys, I'm afraid that sooner or later there will be another chaos', the prime minister thought so, and it was a pity that there were no unscrupulous generals. The lieutenant entered the country with his soldiers, riding all over the road, waving flags like clouds, and the armor soldiers were shining, shaking and raising spirits, like the wind and lightning. The thieves were frustrated, and the people's morale was boosted. In less than half a month, a little trick and a little dispatch of some troops won a great victory in Mafu Mountain. Gao Zu said: 'In the midst of strategizing, it is decisive to win thousands of miles away', what is Lieutenant Si's prescription? Those who set Ji Prefecture, the state Bo also; An Zhao realm, who is the lieutenant? ”
"Lieutenant Si's Fang"? I'm talking about people like the lieutenant!
The children of the eunuch family are not all greedy and vulgar, unlearned and unskilled people, Huang Ming Shao learned scriptures from the teacher, and long, good literature and poetry, Xiping five years, with the talent of calligraphy and painting, to be controlled under the Hongdu door, the next year to be released, several moves, then for Changshan Guolang in the order. Since he studied the scriptures when he was young, and he is good at resigning when he grows up, it is a piece of cake to drop a bookbag and say something crepe.
After Wen Chou knew that Huang Ming was Duan Qi's subordinate, he was quite wary of him and alienated, and he didn't want to say more to him, but seeing him so enthusiastic, he praised and praised him, and he also mentioned Huangfu Song in his words, but he couldn't help it, and said: "Huaili Hou uses soldiers like gods, benevolence and benevolence, and prestige to please Jiān, the pillar of the country, and is now worshiped by the imperial court as the pastor of Jizhou, which is the honor of the people of Jizhou." As for the ugliness, the talent of the fighting basket, because of the success of the people, how dare to compare with the Liuhou, when this 'strategizing, decisive victory'? Lang Zhongling praised and praised. ”
"Strategize and win a thousand miles" is Liu Bang's evaluation of Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang is one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, Wen Chou is now only making some military merits, and he is the lieutenant of Changshan State, no matter what, he does not dare to compare with him.
Huang Ming laughed. Yu said very intimately: "In terms of the world, the foot may not be as good as the Houhou, but for the Limin gentry of Changshan Country, the foot is their Liuhou!" ”
It has been more than 150 years since the Changshan Kingdom was feuded and has been passed down for five generations, although Liu Liang, the king of the first seal, was the uncle of Emperor Guangwu. Its descendants can not be compared with the clan of the Guangwu lineage, and they are more distant in bloodline, so there are only five counties in the country, which is considered a small country, but after all, the country has been established for so long, and the buildings in the palace are still very majestic and gorgeous.
Because I just experienced the rebellion in Montenegro. The palace is very guarded, and there are soldiers standing guard everywhere. In the upstairs in the distance, in the roadside corridor nearby, I sometimes see the slaves of silk and silk, beautiful and luxurious maids, or looking down from the heights, or holding things and tending. The palace digs soil and digs the pond, planting trees for the forest, and the autumn wind sweeps through the pond forest. It is very cool. And bring the chrysanthemum fragrance in the flower garden, and the beast song in the beast room. Wen Chou sniffed the fragrance, faintly smelled the sound of the beast, pressed the sword and walked forward, and followed behind Huang Ming without squinting.
Go straight along the avenue in the palace and pass through the courtyard. I came to the main hall.
Wen Chou looked at it slightly, and saw that the main hall was tall and magnificent, Zhu Linghe was relieved of light, and the eaves confronted the painted sparrows, such as the flying phoenix. The appearance is majestic. The inside is very beautiful. The winding of the coiled cockroach, the flying beam of the bearing of the male rainbow, looking at it outside the hall, saw a person sitting on the main seat in the hall, the crown was far away, the clothes were black and red, with a jade ring, with a sword, and a jade seal was placed on the case in front of the seat. Behind him stood two handmaidens; In front of and on both sides of his seat, a dozen people were kneeling or standing, all dressed in black and crowned.
On the steps outside the hall, more than a dozen halberd guards stand opposite each other, just look at their appearance, the size of the figure will know that they are all warriors, one by one swallow jaw tiger head, burly and strong, wearing a crown on the vertebrae, wearing fine armor, holding a halberd, majestic and magnificent.
Huang Mingxiao asked Wen Chou to go outside later, and then he went inside to report, and soon came out and invited him in.
Wen Chou walked up the stairs with his head held high. Huang Mingcong followed. The two entered into the temple.
Wen Chou can see clearly outside the hall, the main seat in the hall is Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, and the officials kneeling on both sides are the officials in the country and the palace, and the two people are the first, one is the state master Huang Zong, and the other is the state minister Li Jin. Seeing him and Huang Ming coming in, the official who had been standing in the hall at first and saying something to Liu Yu bowed his sleeves, retreated to the seat on the right, and sat down on his knees. This man's name is Hofa, and he is a "servant" of the kingdom. Servant, the car and driver of the lord and princes and kings, his real name was too servant, and he was later renamed a servant, with a rank of thousands of stones, and was one of the few officials in the country.
Wen Chou went to worship in front of Liu Yuzuo.
Liu Yu got up from the table, went down to the hall, helped him up, and said with a smile: "Lieutenant, please get up quickly." ”
In terms of name, Liu Yu was the king of Changshan State, and Wen Qiu and other domestic officials were his subordinates, but in fact, the princes and kings of this dynasty had no power in the local area, and the Chinese military affairs of the state returned to the state minister and lieutenant, and the princes and kings "did not deal with political affairs", but only sat on land rent.
Not only were the princes and kings not allowed to participate in political affairs, but they were also supervised by Fu, Xiang, and lieutenants. Han law: "The princes are guilty, Fu and Xiang do not play, for the party". The Eastern Han Dynasty was very strict with the princes and kings, in addition to the Fu, Xiang, and lieutenants as the supervision, but also allowed the officials and the people to report, and formulated various laws and regulations to restrain the princes and kings, such as: the princes and kings are not allowed to steal the Son of Heaven system, not to monopolize the benefits of the mountains and seas in the country to cook salt and smelt, not to leave the country privately, not to have private meetings with the clan, not to have private dealings with the king's relatives, not to privately reward officials, not to accept outlaws, not to solicit guests, etc., it can be said that the princes and kings of this dynasty are empty nobles, no authority.
If the governor of the state and the country is kind, the princes and kings may be able to breathe a sigh of relief, and they don't have to be afraid all day long, and they can live a comfortable life for a few days, but if they encounter a strict state and country governor, then the princes and kings will simply not be able to pass. During the Ming Emperor of this dynasty, Zhi Shou was the assassin of Jizhou, "the envoy was engaged in the exclusive residence of the kingdom, and moved to supervise the post house outside the palace, the movement was lost, and the immediate riding post was played on the king's crime and impeachment of Fu Xiang", Fu Xiang had the responsibility of supervising the princes and kings, so the king was guilty, and Fu Xiangru would be punished as "A Party" if he did not report it, and he was convicted. Just imagine, the princes and kings live in the palace, and outside the palace separated by a wall are the state and the state governor who are watching them, and if they don't intend to say a wrong thing or do something wrong, they will be reported to the court, not to mention anything else, only this psychological pressure can't stand it.
There is an inspection of the history of the assassin outside, a prison of Fu Xiang inside, and a governor of the people, how can the princes and kings of the Eastern Han Dynasty not "tremble and walk on thin ice"?
In addition, Liu Yu's father, Liu Gan, was once convicted of being convicted by the minister of state for "living in his father's private wife, and leaving Sima Gate in white clothes", and "sat on Jiumen County" and was cut off from the food of a county. The country has suffered such a big loss, and it is not surprising that Liu Yu respects the ugliness. (To be continued.) )
