Chapter 1642: The Emperor Who Doesn't Have to Kneel to Greet You
Sun Shangxiang didn't go out for many days, just because the guards were mixed with spies.
Liu Wei smiled at her and said, "The clothes and armor of the guards beside me are still being stolen, and there are one or two spies around you, what is it?" ”
From Liu's argument, Sun Shangxiang heard something, but she didn't dare to respond.
The Han army was loyal to the imperial court, and she had heard of it for a long time, and said in front of Liu Wei that there might be spies in the Han army, and Sun Shangxiang would not do such a stupid thing.
She wouldn't do anything stupid, and of course Liu Wei wouldn't make it very clear, he beckoned to her, and without saying a word, he walked towards the backyard first.
Walking behind Liu Wei's side, Sun Shangxiang looked respectful.
Ever since she met Liu Wei, she has always had a feeling that she can't see this emperor clearly.
Entering the backyard, Liu Wei did not go to the room where Sun Shangxiang lived, but walked straight to the pond where she was still sitting on the side just now.
When he arrived at the edge of the pond, he looked down at the fish swimming with their tails swinging, and said as if to himself: "The fish in the pond seem to be free, but in fact, they are just living in a small pond." There are vast rivers and seas outside, but they are never seen in life. ”
Standing behind him, Sun Shangxiang didn't say anything.
She didn't know why Liu Biao suddenly said such a sentence, let alone why Liu Biao would say such a thing, for fear that she would cause some trouble for no reason because she would have the wrong intention, and the only way was to remain silent and see what Liu Bian said next.
"Although the place where the fish are located is small, they can be safe, and the Han is vast and boundless, and the fertile fields are thousands of miles, but they can't accommodate a few people!" Glancing back at Sun Shangxiang, Liu Wei continued: "If you have some power in your hands, you just want to get more. Not only are the heroes in the world like this, but even I have not been able to get out of this strange circle! ”
From what Liu Wei said, he could vaguely hear a little bleak, and Sun Shangxiang didn't know what to say.
Most of the heroes in the world have now handed over their power or have simply been exterminated by the imperial court, but the Jiangdong Sun clan still relies on the Yangtze River natural danger to intend to resist the imperial court and retain the corner of the land that Sun Ce seized at the beginning.
Sun Shangxiang didn't dare to answer, but Liu Wei said to her: "Staying in Luoyang, is to see Luoyang more, stay in your residence all day, don't walk around the market, how can you see more of Luoyang's cultural landscape?" ”
When she was in Jianye, Sun Shangxiang also liked to run around, and at that time, there was no other person's work around her, but Wu Guotai would always say that she was a girl's family, and she didn't have to walk around all day.
In view of his respect and fear for Wu Guotai, although Sun Shangxiang likes to go out, he does not dare to wander outside every day, so his understanding of Jianye City is just a few scratches.
When she arrived in Luoyang, as a person from Jiangdong, Liu Wei not only did not strictly control her, but came in person, and she went outside a lot, which made Sun Shangxiang a little unexpected, and even more suspicious of what kind of emperor Liu Wei was, and his behavior was very different from others.
Seeing the suspicion on her face, Liu Wei smiled slightly and said to her: "I have been idle recently, why don't I personally accompany you to the city for a walk?" ”
Liu Bian's proposal to personally accompany Sun Shangxiang for a walk around the city was even more unexpected to her.
Looking at Liu Wei with a stunned face, Sun Shangxiang hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty is the respect of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, the little girl is just a family member of the ministers, how dare you bring it with her in person......
With an indifferent smile on his face, Liu Wei said to Sun Shangxiang: "In Luoyang City, there are few people who don't recognize me, I'm afraid. Accompanied by me, don't feel bored! ”
"Little girl don't dare!" Bowing his head, Sun Shangxiang responded in fear.
In Jianye, she is not afraid of heaven and earth, even if Sun Quan can only reprimand her after she has made excessive moves, and there will not be too much harsh criticism.
Sun Shangxiang, who had developed this kind of temperament, arrived in Luoyang and saw Liu Wei, but he was as tame as a captive kitten, and he didn't dare to make a mistake at all.
"Tell the guards that they should prepare their carriages and horses, and Miss Sun and I will go to the market together!" Without waiting for Sun Shangxiang to agree, Liu Wei had already given an order to a guard behind him.
The guard answered, turned and left the pond.
Seeing the figure of the guard leaving, Sun Shangxiang's face showed an entanglement.
Accompanied by the emperor to walk around the market, in the future, in this Luoyang City, she is afraid that she will be recognized as soon as she shows her face.
didn't look back at Sun Shangxiang, and Liu Wei didn't notice the difference in the look on her face, just looked down at the few fish swimming freely in the pond.
The fish wagged their tails, and from time to time one or two mischievous ones would jump out of the water and make two waves on the surface.
The departing guard didn't take long before he turned back, hugged his fists and said to Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, the carriages and horses are ready!" ”
Nodding, Liu Wei turned around and waved his hand at the guard, before he said to Sun Shangxiang: "Walk around the city with me, if there is anything unclear, I will explain it to you!" ”
"I'm tired of your majesty, the little girl is very frightened!" bowed her head, because Liu Wei had said earlier that she should not be a man in her daughter's clothes, Sun Shangxiang did not hold her fists, but responded tremblingly.
Striding towards the front yard, Liu Wei said nothing more along the way.
Sun Shangxiang and Wang Zhen walked side by side behind him, as if there was another guard behind him.
Out of the house, Sun Shangxiang saw a team of guards parked outside the house at a glance.
The so-called chariots and horses are just a few tall healthy horses, and as for vehicles, there are none.
Turning over the horse brought for him by a guard, Liu Wei bowed his head and said to Sun Shangxiang: "If Miss Sun is inconvenient to ride a horse, I can go and prepare a big cart." ”
"Don't bother!" Standing beside a healthy horse, Sun Shangxiang hurriedly said to Liu Wei: "The little girl came to Luoyang from Jiangdong, and she also rode horses all the way. ”
Smiling slightly, Liu Wei didn't say anything more.
Asking the guards to prepare the carriage and horses, he had already thought that asking Sun Shangxiang to ride a horse in parallel with him would be more extensive than preparing a big car for her, which could only be enjoyed in the car.
Everyone got on the horse, and Liu Wei gently clamped his legs towards the horse's belly, and took the lead in riding the horse forward.
The guards who followed him also rode their horses forward, and Sun Shangxiang and Wang Zhen walked on the left and right, walking a horse's head away from him.
Walking on the street, Sun Shangxiang soon found that the people who came and went in Luoyang City were not surprised by Liu Wei's appearance.
Liu Wei passed by, and the people just let him go to the side of the road to pay attention to him, and there was not even a fist and bowed to salute.
Riding on horseback and following the team along the street, Sun Shangxiang was full of doubts all the way.
Earlier, when she was outside the city with Liu Wei, in the village she passed, the villagers saw Luan Jia from a distance, and they did not avoid it and did not come forward to salute, so she felt a little strange.
Now in Luoyang City, Liu Wei personally walked to the market, it stands to reason that the people he met should at least kneel on both sides of the road to greet him, but when he walked to the market, Sun Shangxiang found that not only did the people in the villages outside the city not need to avoid it, but they didn't even need to see it, but the people in the city just stood on both sides of the road to make way for the team, and after the team walked by, they would immediately get busy with their own livelihoods.
Feeling very strange about this phenomenon, Sun Shangxiang whispered to Liu Bian: "Your Majesty travels, not only does you not let the guards clear the road, but the people don't even kneel on both sides of the road to greet you, isn't Your Majesty afraid of the people, and is disrespectful to Your Majesty in your heart?" ”
"The mouth of the people is better than the defense of Sichuan, and being estranged from the people is just seeking a dead end!" Looking ahead, Liu Wei said to Sun Shangxiang: "I don't want the people to kneel to greet me, let alone the guards to clear the road, the people salute on both sides of the road, but out of spontaneity. As long as they recognize me in their hearts, I feel that I have been respected. As for what the people say on weekdays, they even scold in the market, saying that I have no way, and I will definitely not send someone to arrest or even seal my mouth. You have to tell them what they don't complain about, so I know what they want, and what I should give them! In order to hide people's eyes and ears, and no one else is allowed to speak, until the people are depressed to a certain extent, it will eventually break out! ”
Having never heard a theory like Liu Wei, Sun Shangxiang was stunned.
Looking at Liu Wei, her gaze became more and more complicated.
As the emperor, the second emperor Huan Ling, who was so unreasonable that the people of the world were miserable, also controlled the people's speech very strictly.
Anyone who is dissatisfied with the royal family does not need to scold the emperor at all, as long as he says two words that are disrespectful to the government, he may even be arrested and beheaded.
After a long time, the people were struggling to make a living, and the four seas were tired, and finally Zhang Jiao used Taiping Road to set off the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
The Yellow Turban Army is not for the sake of the people, compared to the official army, they are more like a group of bandits.
Everywhere he went, he burned, killed and looted, and forced civilians who did not want to join the Yellow Turbans to join the rebellion.
The Zhang Jiao brothers only relied on fallacies and heresies to develop their own strength, and there was no strict military discipline, and the commanders of all walks of life also acted independently, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion was completely suppressed by the official army after many years.
In order to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty issued an edict and canonized the history of the world as a state pastor, each with independent military and political power.
Although it played a role in curbing the Yellow Turban Army in a certain way, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion was put down, the imperial court was no longer able to recover military power from the hands of heroes from all walks of life.
What Liu Wei did seemed to be disrespectful to the people who allowed him, but at a certain level, it also made him understand what the people need today, and what he did wrong.
The reasonable needs of the people are satisfied, and the Han court can be stable for a long time!
Thinking about this layer, Sun Shangxiang didn't say anything more, just followed Liu Wei and silently walked all the way along the street.
