Liu Xun said tirelessly, thinking that Xiao Wangzhi and Zhou Kan would not teach these words to the prince, but Liu Zheng blindly studied Confucianism, how could he understand that the organic combination of criminal law and Confucianism could make a virtuous king?

Liu Zheng said at this time: "Father, when Zhao Guanghan, the Taishou of Yingchuan County, arrived in Jingzhaoyin, the decree was good, but he was executed, and the people coaxed and pleaded, and now Henan County Taishou Yan Yannian was under the court captain, and the people of Henan also interceded for it, they are all capable officials who do not follow Confucianism, they all advocate criminal law, biased towards Legalism, why didn't the father forgive them?" Where does this put the people's hearts? ”

Liu Xun closed his eyes when he heard this, he really felt haggard, this son can't teach him no matter how he teaches, can he tell him everything how to do it?

"Everything needs to be judged, there is a saying that this time and that time, the time is different, the environment is different, and the way of doing things must be changed, I used to like to eat soup, is it because I used to like it, I want to eat soup for the rest of my life?"

"Legalism and Confucianism originally had their own strengths, and whichever of the hundreds of schools of thought could be used by our Han Dynasty would become the system of our Han Dynasty."

"There is no exclusion between 'royal road' and 'domineering', now that it is no longer the Zhou Dynasty, how can you always use the regulations of the Zhou Dynasty to deal with the current affairs in comparison?"

"The so-called 'etiquette and righteousness' is said to the people and subjects, and there are many Confucian people who do not know the times! Far-fetched, dogmatic, and what's more, those pedantic people always like to affirm the ancients and ancient things, thinking that what the ancients said is always correct, but did the ancients have the Huns at that time? Is there a country of Wusun? Are there Qiang, Yanqi, Qiuzi, Khotan, Shule, Wulei, Wujie, Jiankun, and Dingling? ”

"Yes. Did those dynasties in the past have the huge territory and strong military power of our Han Dynasty today? ”

Liu Xun suddenly didn't want to say anything. He pinched his forehead. "Go," said softly, "and remember that the name and the substance, the people and the courtiers, and the king, are always contradictory and must not be mixed together...... When you don't know when you are keeping, how can you entrust yourself with a heavy responsibility! ”

Liu Xun's sentence was a bit heavy, Liu Xun stood up, his face was panicked, he didn't know how to defend it, Liu Xun sighed: "Go." Burn some incense for your mother, and bring your son, I dreamed of her again last night......"

Liu Xun is talking about the emperor's grandson Liu Biao, who was born to the crown prince Liu Zheng and the crown princess Wang Zhengjun.

When Liu Zheng heard this, his face was suddenly sad, and tears were about to flow out, he lost his mother since he was a child, and his feelings of grief for his mother have never been broken, which will listen to Liu Xunyi. There was some sadness in my heart.

"Well, I'm a little tired. Go ahead, don't just read the book, there is some truth, the book will not be mentioned, and others will not tell you, you, be attentive! ”

Liu Zheng nodded yes and left.

Liu Xun watched his son leave, slapped his hand lightly on the desk, and said to himself: "Pingjun, my Liu family's foundation, sooner or later will be ruined by your son......"

"Why can't he grow up?"

Liu Xun fell into meditation on the past here, someone came in outside, Shi Xian hurriedly made a look, but Liu Xun had already looked over, this inner servant said: "Your Majesty, Yang Tan, a subordinate country, asks to see." ”

"Call."

Yang Tanyuan's face was full of sadness, and he said after seeing Liu Xun: "Your Majesty, the princess of Wusun Kingdom has a lot of resistance to choosing her husband." ”

Liu Xun was in a bad mood just now, and when he heard Yang Tan say this, he stood up and walked around, asking, "What's the matter?" Could it be that a princess is still worried that she can't get married? ”

Yang Tan muttered in his heart, you are the Son of Heaven, what you said lightly, but I broke my leg below, can Princess Wusun compare with the princess of the Han Dynasty?

Far from it!

"Your Majesty, Originally, His Majesty issued an edict ordering all officials and eunuchs who had never married at the age of fifteen to all men should wait for Princess Wusun to be selected, but now the princess has a few questions, saying that these children must first test these questions before they can be considered qualified for her personal interview."

Liu Xun said impatiently: "If she wants to test, let her test, am I still afraid of the princess of Wusun?" ”

Yang Tan said with an embarrassed face: "But the princess's titles are all inexplicable, and they don't match poetry, books, and sects, and as a result, out of one hundred and twelve children, only four of them were selected......"

"Huh?"

Liu Xun frowned, paced and said, "What topic?" Why are these sons and daughters all wine bags and rice bags? ”

Yang Tan saw that Liu Xun was angry, and simply magnified his courage: "Your Majesty, although the minister is in charge of foreign affairs, but the minister also thinks that the title of this princess is really strange, but the minister thinks, is this Wusun princess deliberately coming to the Han to make trouble and add to our Han Kingdom." ”

When Liu Xun heard this, he was originally unhappy, but he laughed instead: "Oh, you should tell me, what kind of problems did that Princess Wusun have?" ”

Yang Tanyu, a subordinate country, reported: "First, Princess Wusun said that in her Western Regions, men can tame fierce horses and beat jackals, so her future husband in the Han Dynasty must be able to bend bows and shoot arrows. ”

Liu Xun nodded: "Archery is originally one of the six arts of a gentleman, isn't it difficult for us to be a big man?" ”

Yang Tanyuan's face was full of sadness: "No, Your Majesty, this Princess Wusun is really tricky and weird, the bow she took out, according to the ministers, if the bow is pulled away, it will take five or six stones, and she also requires ten shots and nine hits, which is a little difficult for our big men." ”

"What's so hard?"

Liu Xun stood up as soon as he heard this: "Although the border is relatively peaceful and there is no war when the Han Dynasty is not compared to Emperor Wu, are these children stupid people who do not divide their limbs and are not diligent?" ”

Yang Tan replied: "Your Majesty, the sons and daughters who can draw five or six stone bows are all in Yulinwei or the army, but if you only ask for archery and bow pulling, there are a few of them, but then, this princess came up with an essay question corresponding to the martial arts question of archery, and these questions are quite strange." Neither a book of poetry. Nor is it a classic. For example, if there is a white silk and a black silk, the test participant's eyes are blindfolded, and no one is allowed to prompt them, and the contestant is asked if they can distinguish which is black silk and which is white silk. ”

Liu Xun said "Huh" in his mouth, and walked a few steps into the main hall, and Yang Tanyuan's round head shook with Liu Xun's body.

Liu Xun thought for a while. Asked Yang Tan: "So?" Down, more than a hundred people, only four left? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, it's not that there is no one in my Han Kingdom, but now this is choosing a son-in-law, not just a competition."

"If you choose a son-in-law, you have to run for election, and none of you are married."

"But it's really hard to find someone who is excellent in martial arts and can shoot arrows, talented and able to answer this weird question, and who has no marriage match, such a son who can write and martial arts. Hasn't it been robbed by the sisters-in-law in Chang'an City a long time ago? ”

Yang Tan's implication is that four people can now be screened out. It's already commendable.

"The important thing is that this princess still has a topic to come up with, if these four people are eliminated, then the face of my Great Han Kingdom will be gone."

Yang Tan saw that Liu Xun was very unhappy, and said in his heart that he wanted to make Liu Xun unbearable by saying that this Wusun princess would not be able to bear it, so that in the future, if the selection of relatives was not completed, Liu Xun would not blame himself for his own good.

What Yang Tan said is also reasonable, but the Great Han Kingdom must not lose face in this matter, if Princess Wusun can't choose a qualified Ruyi Langjun in the great Han, it will make others laugh and lose their big teeth.

Liu Xun thought for a while and said: "In this way, the subordinate country will give Chang'an, no, and tell the entire Han country that this time don't just select the children of the official eunuchs, but let these official eunuchs choose some well-known and qualified teenagers to participate." ”

"If the primary selection is shortlisted, I will give each of these elected eunuchs fifty gold."

Yang Tan nodded when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is Shengming!" That's good! ”

Liu Xun continued: "Besides, if these teenagers are selected in the primary election, no matter whether they can be selected in the future, I will edict them to enter Yulinwei. ”

Liu Xun's idea is very good, if he can shoot arrows and answer the question of the princess of Yuge, he can be regarded as a Han talent, so he can recruit them to Yulinwei, which can not only show the heart of the Son of Heaven's love for talents, but also supplement Yulinwei's manpower, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

"Besides, no matter how many test questions Princess Wusun has, every big man who passes a test, I have a corresponding reward, and the last one, who can be chosen by Princess Wusun, I canonize him as a ...... The captain of the Han Dynasty protects Qiang, and I will not hesitate to reward the eunuchs who were elected at the beginning. ”

Originally, Liu Xun wanted to say that the person in the picture of Princess Wusun was the general of the Han Dynasty, but he felt that the reward was a bit too much, so he changed it to the captain of Huqiang.

The rank of military attache in the Han Dynasty is divided into lieutenant, general, lieutenant general, and lieutenant, but because the position of lieutenant and general is not often placed, it is always called the general who commands the army when there is a war, so the highest official position that the general military attache can obtain in peacetime is Zhonglang general, with a rank of 2,000 stones.

Zhonglang will be the most glorious, in charge of the Royal Yulin Guard, which belongs to the jurisdiction of Guangluxun, one of the nine kings, and Guangluxun is the minister of the guard who is responsible for guarding the palace gate, so this Zhonglang general is actually the deputy Guangluxun.

Guangluxun's subordinate officials include doctors, lang, confessors, periods, and Yulin.

The lieutenant is said to be a military attache second only to the Zhonglang General, but in fact, the rank and rank will be the same as the Zhonglang, the only difference is that the Zhonglang General is generally a very favored person to take responsibility, and the emperor is closer.

When Shang Shufu shot Shi Xian, he felt that Liu Xun's will seemed reckless, but it was actually very powerful.

In the Han Kingdom, the families who can be married by the Son of Heaven are all at the level of the Hou Ye, for example, Zhang Lin, who was married by Princess Liu Min of Jingwu, is now Huangmenlang, but his father is Fuping Hou Zhang Bo, and Zhang Lin's ancestors are all Hou Ye except for Zhang Tang, which is almost hereditary, so if Liu Min marries Zhang Lin, Zhang Lin will naturally be rewarded with the title of a marquis by Liu Xun, the Son of Heaven, so as to be worthy of the identity of Princess Liu Min.

Now, the children of the official eunuchs of Chang'an are about to be eliminated by Princess Wusun, if someone can pass the customs and kill all the way to the bottom of the world, this is to take care of the prestige of the Han Kingdom, and at the same time, it has also become a process of selecting talents in the Han Kingdom in disguise.

The person married by the princess of Wusun Kingdom cannot be the common people of Buyi, Liu Xun's seemingly generous move is really a few birds with one stone.

With a captain who protects Qiang and matches Princess Wusun, it can be regarded as the right one.

Imagine that if such a person is taken by Princess Wusun and becomes the son-in-law of Wusun Kingdom, it will not only win glory for the country, but also gain fame and power at the same time, and become a senior military attache of the Han Kingdom, which is very honorable, so how can this person not be grateful to Liu Xun, the son of heaven?
