Liu Yu, who was almost confused, stopped in time at the critical moment.

He didn't ask any further.

She now suspected that Zang Dian and the others had the same tasks as the embroidered messengers during the Emperor Wu period.

She is external, and Zang Dian is most likely internal.

The object of people's investigation also includes her.

This discovery made Liu Yu's next conversation instantly cautious.

……

Chen Liu.

When Liu Wei arrived with the army, everyone who should have come had already come.

At this moment, the imperial court in the east of the three routes of soldiers and horses, all of which have drawn a part of the troops.

Half of the troops stationed in Shangdang were transferred, Cao Cao was the teacher, and Cao Chun stayed behind.

Half of the army of Tunjun Nie County was also transferred.

Chen Lin led Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, and Zhang Ji to the class, and Zhang Xiu stayed behind.

The army that retreated to Liaocheng was only a quarter of it, Xun You and Xiahou Xuan.

Cao Ren was the main general, and Duan Xuan was the deputy general who stayed behind.

Now the imperial court's external defense force, from north to south, is like an arc-shaped star belt.

From Shangdang in the north, to Yingchuan in the south, and in the middle of the outward protrusion of Niexian and Liaocheng.

The Shangdang soldiers faced Xianbei and Xiongnu, and at the same time could take into account the aid of Yanzhou and Yingchuan.

Niexian and Liaocheng are each other's horns,-for-tat against Jizhou.

Yingchuan is sandwiched between the three forces of Sun Jian, Yuan Shu, and Liu Biao, and is currently the most difficult party.

Chen Liucheng waved his head with a banner, and Liu Wei walked into Chen Liu's mansion in the guards of the ministers.

This grand scene made Liu Wei, who had been a little worried recently, feel happy.

He still has so many capable generals, what do you want to do so much too early?

He, the emperor who should have been killed by Li Rujiu a long time ago, has not yet revived the Han Dynasty, but he has revived the Central Plains.

Really counted, he's very good!

"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"

In the palace, the ministers knelt down and shouted Your Majesty!

"Get up and sit down." With a gentle smile on his face, Liu Wei looked at the ministers in the hall one by one.

"I haven't seen you for a few months, and all of you have been cleared. When marching and fighting, you must eat and drink well, but don't treat yourself badly. ”

The ministers laughed in unison.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are all blessed." Cao Cao got up and patted his stomach to show Liu Wei.

Liu Wei fixed his eyes and looked at it, heh, Boss Cao is really fucking lucky.

"It seems that the wind of the party is a little strong, and I can't blow my eyes well. It looks dark, not thin. Liu Wei laughed.

"Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the wind of going to the party is indeed a bit strong." Cao Cao smiled and agreed, "Every once in a while, I'll blow some sheep to the ministers, cattle or something." The minister was supposed to be thin, but this one inadvertently made him fat. ”

Liu Wei laughed, "You must not have looked carefully, is there still a person behind the sheep?" ”

"The wind is too strong, and sometimes the ministers really don't look carefully, and sometimes the sheep follow not only the people, but also the cavalry." Cao Cao sighed lightly and said deliberately, "In the past few months, the people of the Shangdang have also made a small fortune with their ministers, and now the normal twenty households can have two ploughing cattle and one family can raise two sheep. ”

"Are you robbing so fiercely?!" Liu Wei was a little surprised.

Twenty households with two ploughing cattle sounds a bit outrageous, but in this era of scuffle, it is already considered rich.

In most places in the Han Dynasty, people are cultivated as livestock.

Walking ten miles and eight villages, it is difficult to see a ploughing cow.

Cao Cao chuckled, "Your Majesty, the minister is not a robbery. They graze cattle in the territory of our Han without authorization, and those cattle belong to my Han, and it is reasonable for the ministers to take the things of our Han and kill a few more people when they refuse. ”

Cao Cao's bastard logic, Liu Wei was quite happy to listen to it.

However, he suddenly realized a problem, and asked in a deep voice: "You shouldn't have given the cattle and sheep to the people for nothing, right?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, they spent money to buy it, but the price is extremely low." Cao Cao said.

Liu Wei bowed, "That's okay, if you encounter similar problems in the future, you can lower the price for the people to buy, or you can lend it to the people, but you must not send it directly!" ”

"Your Majesty, why is that?" Zhu Jun asked puzzled.

When Cao Cao said that he would sell it to the people, Zhu Jun had some opinions.

He didn't expect that the emperor would not only approve of such an approach, but also vigorously advocate it.

"Humanity!" Liu Wei said.

It's a simple and straightforward answer.

Moreover, to the point.

"Humanity?!" Zhu Jun was even more puzzled by this.

Liu Wei bowed his head and said, "Situ, if you are a poor person who has no food and clothing, and is hungry for two days out of three days, and someone suddenly gives you two sheep, what will you do?" ”

"I ......" Zhu Jun was speechless for a while.

After thinking about it for a while, he blushed and said, "I might eat it!" ”

"Yes, eat it." Liu Wei nodded, "So, this will also become the choice of most people, because they have not paid the price, and few people will think of fattening them, so that two sheep will become four sheep, and become a flock of sheep." ”

"They will soon kill and eat meat, and then they will continue to be poor and destitute."

"If the imperial court helps the people in a free way, it is absolutely meaningless."

This is a cliché, and Liu has already said it more than once.

But there will always be people who think that the court is unkind and oppressive to the people.

What the people outside think, Liu Wei didn't care.

But in the court, in this matter, Liu Wei needs to unify his thinking and understanding.

Zhu Jun quickly corrected his posture, "It's the minister who is stupid." ”

"It is very important to empathize, that is, to look at things from the position and perspective of the people." Liu Wei said with a smile, "The affairs of the imperial court, in the final analysis, are the affairs of the people, lean down to look, calm down and think, and think from the perspective of the people." ”

"I don't want all of you to go barefoot into the fields and experience for yourself the hardships of the people, but if you look carefully and think carefully, you should do it. Water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, and in a difficult year, the imperial court must unite the people. ”

"Of course, we must also unite in the future, I do not mean that you will abandon the people after the difficulties, so that the world will still return to the way it is now."

"Your Ministers obey!"

Zhu Jun took the lead, and the ministers shouted loudly.

The emperor's words were heard by the generals.

But for Zhu Jun, Cao Cao, and Xun You, the emperor's words are tantamount to a famous saying.

Fortunately, they are now accustomed to the emperor's thought-provoking from time to time.

Otherwise, it would be a shock again.

In the evening, Liu Wei organized a night banquet at the government office.

Lingyou's waist is still white and slender, and her dancing posture is still staggering.

The monarch and the ministers enjoyed together, and Liu Wei drank a lot of wine, but restrained himself a little.

Cai Wenji also came.

Liu Wei, who was hot in his heart, didn't want to be drunk, and fell into Cai Wenji's arms unconscious.

He's ready to get down to business.

After the banquet dispersed, Liu Wei almost couldn't wait to go to the backyard.

Can...... No one!

"What about people?" Liu Wei was a little dazed.

Zhao Ye sent someone to ask, and then reported, "Your Majesty, Miss Wen Ji went to the Sunset Inn to play cards." ”

"She, my concubine, went to play cards?!" Liu Wei couldn't cry or laugh, and his scalp was a little numb.

Fuck it, who's the one who crossed over?!

“…… Be. Zhao Ye lowered his head and said very carefully, "It is said that the Sunset Inn happens to have a poetry meeting today." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Liu Wei was quite surprised.

It was the first time he had heard such a thing as a poetry meeting, and it was a little novel.

Zhao Ye explained: "Those literati said so, but in fact, it was just a group of literati sitting together drinking and having fun, occasionally writing a few poems. ”

Liu Wei's eyes suddenly felt a little unkind, "That's why my concubine actually went to this kind of place to play cards." ”

Zhao Ye shrunk his neck and almost shrunk himself into a quail, for fear that the fire at the city gate would affect the fish in the pond.

"Change!" Liu Wei shouted.

"Yui!"

Zhao Ye knew that there was no way to stop it, and he didn't dare to stop it, so he hurriedly took someone to change his clothes for Liu Wei.

It's just that in secret, he quietly sent someone to inform the two generals, Yinglin and Zhang Liao.

Chen Liu's Sunset Inn is now a qualified inn.

Its existence overshadowed all the other counter-journeys in Chen Liucheng.

Today, there are feasts everywhere in the city.

And the Sunset Inn is the most prosperous.

This wooden building, which can be called a landmark building in Chenliu, is brightly lit and full of singing and laughing.

Such a grand occasion gives people the illusion of being in a prosperous era, rather than a troubled era.

Cai Wenji is dressed as a man, with only the maid named Fluttershy by her side, and is killing all sides.

The novelty of playing cards was given to him by Liu Wei.

And Cai Wenji is like a diligent teacher, every time there is a banquet, she always has to find an opportunity to give guidance.

"Miss, it's time for us to go back." Fluttershy shrinks down next to Cai Wenji and whispers.

Cai Wenji was playing, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will feast the ministers today, and you will definitely drink until dawn, how can you have the kung fu to take care of my little concubine." I'll play a few more laps and we'll go back. ”

"But, miss, it's getting late now." Fluttershy reminds again.

"Don't rush, don't rush, it's going to be soon." Cai Wenji was dealing with Fluttershy, and her eyebrows fluttered as she threw out the cards in her hand, "King Bang!" The one surnamed Wang, give money or drink, or compose poetry? ”

In the corner, a man with a mole on the tip of his nose threw down the cards in his hand in frustration, "This can't be played, you brought the things, the rules are set by you, and we will always lose." ”

"Yes, this doesn't work, why do we always lose, you always win!" Someone immediately chimed in.

"yes, I lost even the clothes, it's not fair!"

The words of the man surnamed Wang aroused strong support from everyone.

Cai Wenji stood up with her right hand on the table, stared at all directions and said loudly, "Isn't Miss Ben talented?" ”

"Also, who is that, that surname Chang, didn't he also win?"

Not far from Cai Wenji, a man with a round figure said a little stiffly: "I think it should be that you haven't figured out how to play, this rule seems to be quite fair." ”

"Shut up, it's not your right to speak!" The man surnamed Wang shouted.

He bypassed everyone and walked to Cai Wenji, and suddenly raised his hand to touch Cai Wenji.

"You're still a?"

Fluttershy immediately crossed in front of Cai Wenji and knocked off the man's hand, "Get rid of your dirty hands!" ”

"Hey, hehe, it's still two!" The man surnamed Wang glances at Fluttershy and smiles at the corners of his mouth.

“告诉你们，在这个地方耍诈可是要付出代价的。 Seeing that you still have a bit of a look, I will give you a chance, or follow me. Or, Naion will sell you! ”

"Are you so easy to cheat us out of our money?"

"You fart! Where did my young lady cheat? If you can't learn it yourself, how can you blame others? Fluttershy waved her finger and scolded angrily, "It's up to you how lacking a woman you are to say such outrageous things." Phew, you scum! ”

The man surnamed Wang twisted the corners of his mouth, smiled a little gloomy, and said to his companions around him, "Don't they know who I am?" Don't they know that it is their blessing to be able to enter my royal family? ”

The people around laughed and coaxed.

"Why should the prince talk to them, I will bring someone to help you invite you into the mansion and complete a beautiful marriage." Someone shouted.

"That's how it should be, Wang Gongzi is too reserved."

"How can such a good thing be delayed!"

Looking at the people who gradually gathered around her, Cai Wenji was a little panicked.

This situation was unexpected for her.

"You guys, all step back, do you know who my young lady is?" Fluttershy shouts as she protects Tsai.

But her shouting only drew more and more laughter from the people around her, and no one took it seriously.

Suddenly, a strong arm stretched out from the side and grabbed Cai Wenji.

"Ahh Cai Wenji was so frightened that she exclaimed.

looked up, but was stunned, "Your Majesty ......"

"Shut up!"
