The original day sat on the Deyang Palace, and the winter sun shone into the main hall, illuminating a floor within the threshold, where the officials entered and exited, and it was so worn out that it was usually not noticed, but at this moment it clearly showed a shallow pit under the sunlight

Tian squinted his eyes and looked at the pit fixedly, and did not move for a long time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info In his hand, there is a note that has just arrived, which was sent by Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou. Liu Biao said that because of the chaos in the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River, Nanyang in the north has fought for two consecutive years, and there is no harvest, and Jingzhou's harvest this year is very poor, and the important thing is that the general Yuan Shu has gone crazy, no matter who the grain is given, as long as it passes through Nanyang, a case is snatched, and the money that Jingzhou should send to Jingshi this year has been robbed by him, so ...... This year, Jingzhou was unable to supply Luoyang, so His Majesty was asked to take remedial measures as soon as possible, and issued an edict to reprimand Yuan Shu, asking him to return the money and grain he had stolen.

Jingzhou is currently one of the financial resources that Tianneng relies on, Jingzhou suddenly cut off support, then Luoyang's financial constraints are expected, God doesn't know whether Liu Biao's reason is true or false, whether it was really snatched away by Yuan Shu - according to Yuan Shu's temper, it is indeed possible - or Liu Biao does not want to give it at all, and has selfish intentions.

Tian has no eyes and ears in Jingzhou, he has always trusted Liu Biao, Liu Biao is one of the eight jun, and he is a Confucian who is familiar with the classics of the sage, he should not do anything to bully the king at this time, right? That is Yuan Shu's audacity.

It is natural to give an edict to reprimand Yuan Shu, but the sky is also clear that since Yuan Shu dares to rob, he will not care about his edict at all, and this edict will not play any role except for doing some superficial articles. Without Jingzhou's money and food, what to do with Luoyang's financial crisis and what to do with the royal family's expenses are problems that need to be solved urgently.

I encountered such a thing last year, and the result was that Liu Xiu brought back a large number of jade and items from the Western Regions from the Western Regions, as well as bear skins and mink skins that were paid tribute by the Zhongbei Kingdom. But the face of the imperial court is still well taken care of. What about this year?

This year, Liu Xiu has been in Luoyang, idle for more than half a year, and has just been arranged by him to go to Montenegro, and Montenegro's music has been sent back. Zhang Yan of Taiping Dao insisted on going his own way, rejecting Liu Xiu's suggestion that they surrender to the imperial court, and Liu Xiu had already gone to Bingzhou again.

Zhang Yan? Tian didn't have any impression of this name, and he didn't have any impression of that Zhenyan, he only knew that she was a woman. Tian was a little dissatisfied with Liu Xiu because of this, how could a woman take over the power of the Yellow Turban Army. Women can only be within the curtains. Waiting for a man, he shouldn't show his face, let alone lead a large army to fight.

Women like Yuan Hui are outliers.

When I thought of Yuan Hui, Tian sighed again, what a good woman, it's a pity that her surname is Yuan, not my race. His heart must be different, and it is not bad to use it on Yuan Hui. That woman who was so smart that she almost almost killed her own son. I almost forced the sharp knife in my hand back.

Tian believes that if Jian Shuo hadn't asked Liu Xiu to have a chance to defend himself, but directly ordered Dong Chong to attack General Wei's mansion, Liu Xiu would definitely rebel and kill Luoyang. He's not the kind of person who can bow down even if he's been wronged.

Because of this, Tian has always been a little jealous of him. Liu Xiu is a capable minister, but not a pure minister, if he is allowed to gain power, he will ascend the throne in the future, and the power will definitely fall into his hands. But if you keep suppressing him, will it backfire, but instead force a capable minister to the point of no return to rebellion? From the current point of view, although there are still three junjie in the three clans of Liu Yu, Liu Yan and Liu Biao, their strength is not enough, and they are not enough to balance the Yuan family.

What to do? The expression of the sky is blank. But with a lot of thoughts, he was very tired, and his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't stop falling. He didn't know how long he could think about the Han Empire, and he knew that he probably wouldn't be able to survive this winter.

He hadn't reached the age of thirty yet, and he was supposed to be the age of vigorous energy, but now, he had run out of oil.

The sky was dizzy, and suddenly a small city appeared in front of me, a wilderness, in the distance was a winding and undulating mountain, the sky was very high and blue, a group of geese flew in a row chéngrén zigzag, after a long time, a panicked lone goose flew behind, it screamed one after another, screamed so panicked, screamed so miserable, it looked at the group of geese not far away, wanted to lean over, but couldn't, it was pulled by an invisible rope, and the group of geese kept a distance.

He raised his head, looked at the lone goose, listened to its wailing, and suddenly, a drop of blood fell from the sky, right on his eyes, and in an instant, the heavens and the earth were blood-red.

He suddenly remembered that there was the river, the Jiedu Pavilion, the place where he had lived since he was a child, the wilderness where he had played since he was a child, the distant mountains, the horizon he had once fantasized about, and the lonely goose that he had talked to in countless dreams, they were all lonely, they had no playmates, they were all led by an invisible thread, and they were always close to others.

Hometown, the soul returns!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! A scream pulled Tian back from his dream, and he struggled to open his eyes, and saw Jian Shuo's frightened face, and the imperial doctor beside him, all of whom looked at him nervously.

"What's wrong? I...... Asleep? Tian tugged at the corners of his mouth, smiled silently, and felt a little pity in his heart, what a good dream, why was he woken up by them.

"Your Majesty, there is good news." Jian Shuo endured his fear, waved his hand behind his back, and motioned to the imperial doctors to hurry out after cleaning up, so as not to let the heavens find out that he had just vomited blood again, and then squeezed out a smiling face, and presented a note with both hands: "Your Majesty, General Wei has sent this year's meter from Bingzhou, as well as a list of gifts for Your Majesty this year."

"Really?" Tian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly Jing God came, "Help me sit up." ”

Jian Shuo hurriedly helped Tian up, took a pillow and stuffed it behind his back, and then handed the music in his hand to Tian, Tian took it in his hand, didn't look at it, first opened the list sandwiched inside, and quickly found the total.

"Twenty million? Twenty million! Tian laughed in surprise, turned his head to look at Jian Shuo, and then looked at the list: "Twenty million." ”

"Yes, two hundred and nine hundred and twenty thousand dollars." Jian Shuo smiled and nodded again and again, but his nose was a little sour, and the dignified sky was actually happy to be like this for 20 million yuan.

"I remember, Deran told me at the beginning." Tian coughed twice, his face flushed, and Jing Shen suddenly became a little stronger: "He wants to pay off the debts owed to the people of Bingzhou in ten years, and in another ten years to develop, he can pay 100 million yuan in taxes, and in another ten years, he can pay 300 million yuan a year." I thought he was talking about it, but now I'm kind of convinced. It's not even ten years old, and he can pay 20 million a year. Previously merged states...... In the past, he ...... "rubbed his temples in the sky, and he couldn't remember it for a while."

"In the past, it was only eight million a year." Jian Shuo added.

"That's right! Right! Tian nodded again and again, the smile on his face flashed, and then he sighed again: "It's a pity, I'm afraid that I can't see the time when he will hand over 300 million yuan to me a year." ”

"Why did Your Majesty say this, the imperial doctor said that Your Majesty is just tired for a while, and if you take care of it, you will be able to recover."

Tian smiled, his own body he knew himself, coughing up blood at a young age, how could he be tired for a while, how did he get over the past few years, he himself knew very well, he had hardly slept a good night, there was not a single night that was not tossing and turning, until he barely fell asleep in the second half of the night, slept for less than an hour, woke up from a nightmare, and then sat alone until dawn.

It's still Liu Xiu, if you are an official, you will do things well, and if you rest, you will have a good rest, after being Chu Shi, she has been at home for nearly half a year, and she actually compiled arithmetic textbooks for his daughter.

It's a pity that the sky can't be so idle, although the saints rule by hanging the arch, but it is all Confucian scholars talking to themselves, being an emperor is a tiring work in the world, and no matter how hard it is, there is no reward.

Tian suddenly smiled.

"Your Majesty, look here." Jian Shuo pointed out a line on the list: "Fifty war horses, Your Majesty, the war horses in the imperial stable can be replaced." ”

Tian glanced at the list and shook his head: "There is no need to change the horses in the stable, these fifty horses will be rewarded to the hussar general and the chariot general." ”

"Your Majesty."

"You've worked hard, go pick five horses yourself." Tian closed his eyes a little tiredly: "When will Liu Xiu come back, I will also leave him five horses." Alas, if you reward him with the horses he paid tribute, I am indeed a little shameless this day. ”

Jian Shuo hurriedly thanked him and said, "Your Majesty, General Wei...... I want to take a leave of absence to go to the grassland. ”

"Leave? To the prairie? Tian was stunned for a moment, his eyes opened a slit, he pondered for a long time, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: for a moment, he said again: "Appreciate a pair of jade walls of the king of the end of the north, a jade belt, fifty brocade horses, and one hundred silk horses." The edict ordered the Wei general Liu Xiuzhi to patrol the north on behalf of me and pacify the Zhuyi. ”

Jian Shuo hurriedly wrote it down, beckoned Lantai Ling to come over and write an edict, and after inviting the sky to look at it, he used the seal, and then summoned the festival order to grant it, and received the jade wall and jade belt, and sent it to the palace of the king of Chu together.

Liu Yuanqi, the king of Chu, received the edict and understood Liu Xiu's intentions, and immediately arranged for Zhang Fei and Zhang Xiu to lead his personal guards to escort Sun Aniu to Bingzhou and meet Liu Xiu. Zhang Fei didn't dare to slack off, knowing that this time he would not be able to come back to the grassland for a year, and he would have to go to an extremely cold place, and it would not work if he did not make adequate preparations, he spent two days, Jing selected five hundred knights, and found Guan Yu, asked him for two hundred heavy armor soldiers, and then brought three hundred tiger soldiers, gathered thousands of people, prepared sufficient supplies, and set off on this journey.

Guan Yu sent Zhang Fei to Mengjin, Zhang Fei specially took care of him and said, General Wei is not in the palace, and most of the defense forces in the palace have been withdrawn, you can be careful. Guan Yu laughed, don't worry, as long as the army of the Yuan brothers has not broken through Luoyang, it is useless to come a few small thieves. With me Guan here, three or five hundred people, it's not a piece of cake.

Zhang Fei couldn't help but take people, escort the carriage, and gradually drifted away. To be continued
