Jia Xu didn't shirk anymore, and said leisurely: "Since the lord insists on saying it, then he won't shy away from it." Accept or refuse, this is actually a double-edged sword, the benefits and disadvantages are very extreme, accept the words, the benefits naturally do not need to be said, to be in charge of a large state, undoubtedly make the status of the lord rise sharply, to lay a solid foundation for the hegemony of the world, but the disadvantage is that the Qingliu party will completely part ways, the lord will want to get the support of the scholars in the future It must be very difficult, the heart of the scholars is lost, and the future of dominance of the world will be dusty. In other words, if he refuses, he will gain the hearts and minds of the people and lose his vested interests, and the interests and disadvantages will be the opposite. ”

Speaking of which, Jia Xu didn't say this, this guy is a slippery head after all. Liu Ze didn't force him anymore, this is undoubtedly a dead end, whether he accepts it or not, there will be no way to do both. Yanzhou Mu, looks very attractive, but if you really let Liu Ze master Yanzhou, there will be Cao Cao's birthplace in the future, in the first wave of the competition for dominance, Liu Ze will undoubtedly start a life-and-death contest with the strongest of the Three Kingdoms and none of Cao Cao, this is the result that Liu Ze is most unwilling to see, this is like a sports competition, the strongest opponent naturally has to stay in the finals to meet, the qualifiers are better or pick soft persimmons to pinch, not only to preserve the strength, but also the audience is happy to see.

What's more, Yanzhou will also have Lu Bu, known as the world's first brave general, rush to intervene in a bar, when the three heroes are in a scuffle, then Yanzhou will undoubtedly become a group of death, and who will be able to qualify in Yanzhou in the future is really unknown.

What's more, Yanzhou is close to the imperial capital, and whether or not he can sit firmly in the position of the state pastor depends on the mood of the emperor and the ten permanent servants. Except for Liu Yan, who ignored the decree of the imperial court in Yizhou, the other state pastors did not have a good end: Huangfu Song was unsuccessful in the western expedition in the following year, and was participated in by Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others, so he was removed from Jizhou Mu, demoted to the capital of the township, and cut 6,000 households; Youzhou Mu Liu Yu failed to compete for power with Gongsun Zhan, and his head was different; After the arrival of Yuzhou Mu Huang Wan, he was diligent and loved the people, but in the end he was still jealous and was transferred back to the capital without even sitting on the buttocks.

Therefore, this Yanzhou pastor may not be a fragrant dumpling, it is likely to be a hot potato. At the risk of being spurned by the people of the world, he went to be the state pastor who was likely to not be able to reach the end. It's better to be a county magistrate in a leisurely manner, and save yourself from being remembered by the emperor and those eunuchs.

After thinking for a while, Liu Ze said: "Those who want to win the world must first win the hearts of the people." won the state pastor, but lost the hearts of the people. The gains outweigh the losses. So you don't have to think about it anymore, if you don't want money, you can give it to the official. ”

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Poverty and lowliness can't be moved." Wealth and nobility can't be lewd, and the lord can deal with himself calmly in front of high-ranking officials, which really makes me feel broken. ”

Liu Ze punched him and said, "Are you fooling me just now?" ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "How dare you, the will of the lord is the ambition of the world, and how can it be tempted by one state and one place." ”

Liu Ze smiled, waved his hand and said, "Let's disperse, I guess we will go to the court in a few days, and we will not be too far from Beijing." Yun Chang should settle down the dart bureau for a while, it is estimated that the business of the dart bureau will be unsustainable, so just stop. As for the money bank, it will be presided over by Xianhe, and Wen He will clean up after he goes back, and go to other places with me to take up his post. ”

Everyone sighed and got up and left their seats.

Jia Xufang took two steps, turned back to Liu Ze and said, "The lord doesn't choose other places, but chooses the plains alone, why?" ”

Liu Ze smiled, it was Liu Ze's established policy to follow Liu Bei's historical path, but this didn't seem to be able to tell Jia Xuming, he asked rhetorically: "What does Wen He think of the plain?" ”

Jia Xu said very bluntly: "It's not good. ”

"How bad it is, let's hear it."

"The plain is a country in Qingzhou, lonely hanging on the left bank of the Yellow River, low-lying, no danger to rely on, Jizhou in the north, Yanzhou in the west, if it is a strong enemy in the future, it is easy to attack and difficult to defend. It is far from Mangdang Mountain, and if the lord is ready to develop here, it may be difficult to gain a foothold. ”

Liu Ze couldn't help but secretly admire that Jia Xu had never been to the plains at all, but he knew the situation in the plains well, and the head of the analysis was the Tao, and the development of the future shape shì was as he expected, and he deserved to be one of the top think tanks in the Three Kingdoms. But Liu Ze just used the plains as a springboard, instead of really preparing to do a big job in the plains.

Liu Ze smiled: "The reason, I'll tell you later." Wenhe, I'm afraid it's hard to come back after leaving Beijing this time, you pack up and take your sister-in-law and two sons to set off together. ”

Jia Xu arched his hand and said, "No." ”

This departure from Beijing can be regarded as a stable place, there is no need to symbolize the Yellow Turban like running around, not to mention that three years later, the Kwantung princes will rise up to unite against Dong, Liu Ze also needs top strategists like Jia Xu to give advice, whether he can have a place among the princes of the Eighteen Roads, it is definitely a matter of competing for the world in the future, Liu Ze does not dare to take it lightly, so he must bring Jia Xu with him when he leaves Beijing this time.

After the chaos in the world, the dart game will also lose the need to save zài, and after the closure, the elite of the dart game will be integrated, which will be a force that cannot be underestimated.

A few days later, Liu Ze received an order to make an early pilgrimage tomorrow. This great ceremony is the first early dynasty after the recovery of Emperor Han Ling's dragon body, and it is also the day when the emperor promised to reward meritorious deeds, so in addition to the members of the three princes and nine ministers, the meritorious ministers who fought against the Yellow Turban last year are also on the list, and the number of people is probably unprecedented.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Ze got up early, and he had to set off when he was ugly, but it was three o'clock in the morning, and he couldn't see his five fingers outside in the dark. Liu Ze put on his official uniform and tied a ribbon, and when he arrived outside the noon gate, there was already a crowd of people. Lu Zhi, Hou Fu Song and others had already arrived first, and Liu Ze hurried over to pay their respects.

At this time, the palace gate slowly opened, and the four palace maids stood on both sides with palace lamps, and the yellow gate attendant shouted in a voice like a male duck: "In the edict of the Son of Heaven, all the ministers are here." ”

Originally, the ministers who had gathered into a bunch to gossip there hurriedly lined up, although it was a little noisy, but the hundred officials were already familiar with each other, and they quickly lined up according to their official ranks, and under the guidance of the Yellow Gate Squire, they rushed in.

Liu Ze is an official position of more than 2,000 stones, and can only be ranked in the lower position, although he has not been to the court, but he has seen some court dramas, although the description in the TV series is not the same as reality, but it is also eight or nine and ten, not to mention that there are so many ministers in front of him to guide the way, Liu Ze can also follow the steps. Liu Ze has been to the Forbidden City more than once, but the palace of the Han Dynasty is not inferior to the Forbidden City in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

At this time, the dawn has just dawned in the east, and under the reflection of the morning light, the entire Nangong is solemn, the tall palace wall, and the majestic palace show the supreme majesty everywhere. All the ministers were hunched over, bent at the knees, wearing only socks, and tiptoed all the way.

In Liu Ze's opinion, this kind of scene is quite funny, whether it is an elderly man with white hair or a young talent, everyone maintains a posture in a uniform manner, silently, only the sound of clothes squirming, which is so depressing that people almost collapse. Fortunately, Liu Ze knows that this is called a trend, and the trend is also a trend.

The court ceremony of the Han Dynasty was built by Shusun Tong for Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, when Liu Bang just defeated Xiang Yu and sat in the world, most of the heroes and famous generals under his command were born as scoundrels in the market like Liu Bang, where they knew what etiquette and etiquette, when they went to the court, they yelled and shouted, and even some people were drunk, fighting for merit and fighting spirit, and stabbing the sword and hitting the pillar, Liu Bang also had a headache when he saw it, so he ordered his uncle and grandson to formulate the court ceremony. Shusun Tong made a new set of court rites according to the Zhou rites and Qin rites, hundreds of officials go to the court, sitting, standing and walking have corresponding regulations, a change from the previous lack of restraint chaos situation, hundreds of officials are orderly, the dignity of the emperor is established, Liu Bang happily praised: "I am known as the emperor's nobles today." ”

This set of rituals has been practiced for more than 400 years and has been used to this day, and even if it is a great ceremony with hundreds of people like today, there will not be a chaotic situation.

Hundreds of officials rushed in, the palace of Nuoda was crowded, but it was silent, and the hundred officials were wearing black clothes, black pressed together, just like a crow party. Due to the large number of people, officials below a thousand stones could not enter the main hall, and stood under the steps of the hall. Liu Ze was an official of more than 2,000 stones, and he happened to be able to stay in the main hall, but he was already at the end of the line, and he stood not far from the entrance of the hall.

At this time, a eunuch sang loudly: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Liu Ze looked at it, and a richly decorated palace chariot slowly appeared under the embrace of many people. Like the hundred officials, the emperor also wore the same black wide clothes, but the style of the clothes and heraldic were different, and the emperor's special crown was worn on his head, and the twelve jade rays hung down, basically covering most of the face of the Spirit Emperor.

The hundred officials immediately bowed and shouted neatly: "The ministers see Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" Banzai! Hooray! ”

Emperor Han Ling sat on the dragon bed, flicked the sleeves of the wide dragon robe, and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat." ”

According to the Han system, the Great Dynasty Ceremony is not a regular occurrence, and it is only held during the heavy festivals such as the new monarch's throne, the first year of the year, and the winter solstice. In addition, similar to the great feudal vassals after the rebellion was quelled, a great court ceremony would also be held. Originally, the great court ceremony that rewarded the heroes of the Yellow Turban was postponed due to Emperor Ling's illness, and it happened to be held together with the great court ceremony at the beginning of the first month, which naturally became more and more grand.

Taichangqing Liu Yan, as the head of Jiuqing, is responsible for the etiquette of the temple, so naturally this great court ceremony is presided over by him. Liu Yan came out of class with a wat and made some words, which inevitably sang praises to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. (To be continued......)
