Chapter 228: Emperor of Troubled Times

The days of Yanzhou are really clean now.

Zhu Jun also looked pleasing to the eye and was full of confidence in the future.

But these two things cannot be completely confused with one thing.

"Your Majesty, the royal family still doesn't have to offend too much...... Zhu Jun weakly persuaded.

Liu Wei chuckled, "I didn't say anything else, I just said that I would give the princes and kings a new choice." ”

"If you want to come, you will come, and if you don't want to come, I can't force it."

"Even if they are jumping there to scold me for this, the emperor is far away, and I, the emperor, can't help them."

Zhu Jun was suspicious, how could this matter be so simple.

Suddenly, he suddenly remembered the princes and kings who had been expelled from the country, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Your Majesty, do you want to get rid of all the vassal states?" Zhu Jun asked.

Liu Wei glanced at Zhu Jun with anger on his face, "I told you about business, don't you honestly say that he can do it?" ”

"Isn't that a simple thing? Give them a decree and tell them that I will welcome them in the city, and that's it. ”

Zhu Jun shook his head repeatedly.

Well, you don't need to be persuaded.

This is the case, the emperor wants to get rid of all the vassal states.

He finally understood what the emperor meant now.

I don't know how to rob, but I rob directly.

Those who are willing to settle in Kyoto will spend money to buy peace.

If you don't want to come, settle the account later.

Qiu didn't commit such a thing, it was absolutely impossible for him to appear to this young emperor.

He simply doesn't have such a heart.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let the minister write the letter?" couldn't reverse the emperor's attitude, so Zhu Jun had no choice but to go along with it.

Although he did not approve of the emperor's unworthy behavior, he did not object to doing so.

As the emperor just said, this world is really rotten.

It really doesn't get any worse than that.

Since this is already the case, it may be the simplest and most direct way to start over and reshape the country.

It probably saves a lot of trouble.

The emperor is doing this now.

"Situ wants to take the blame for me?" Liu Wei said with a smile.

Zhu Jun drooped his eyelids, and muttered with some resentment in his eyes, "The minister can't persuade Your Majesty." ”

"Okay, although it took a lot of words, since Situ is in favor of this matter." Liu Wei smiled heartily, "Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi, you go and persuade, especially Lu Zhi." With this kind of root-digging behavior, Lao Lutou must give me eye medicine. ”

Zhu Jun: ......

Although he couldn't understand the emperor's last muttering, it was certainly not a good word.

Not only did he have to take the blame, but he also had to run errands.

It's unreasonable......

"So let's talk about the second business." Liu Wei rubbed his hands and said as he walked.

Looking at the emperor's eyebrows that jumped because of excitement, Zhu Junren was dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, it's still ...... 还有啊? Zhu Jun, who acted calmly like Mount Tai, rarely had some gaffes.

"Eggs can't be put in two baskets, how many princes and kings of the Han Dynasty are there, and they don't necessarily all come back, right?" Liu Wei said, "The imperial court needs to prepare more means. ”

Zhu Jun was numb, and gradually calmed down.

"Your Majesty, please."

Cao Cao didn't know when he appeared behind, and suddenly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the imperial court should provide escorts along the way for those princes and kings who want to return to Kyoto to settle down. ”

Liu Wei's eyes lit up slightly, "This is indeed a good idea, to show the bearing and tolerance of the imperial court." ”

"Exactly, Your Majesty." Cao Cao said.

"How much do you think is appropriate?" Liu Wei already roughly understood what Boss Cao was thinking.

Cao Cao said with a smile, "Your Majesty, the number of people should not be too much, nor too little, the minister thinks that three or five hundred is just right." If you encounter bandits and horse bandits along the way, you will have enough ability to deal with them. ”

Liu Wei suddenly sighed, "But with such a situation in the world, I am afraid that soldiers will be targeted when they go out, which is very dangerous." ”

"Your Majesty, this is just an escort, not a war. If someone provokes, the court also has enough reason. Cao Cao said, "If someone intercepts and kills our army's guards along the way, and the imperial army is recruited, they will have nothing to say." ”

"Will someone really rob it?" Liu Wei didn't believe it very much.

Cao Cao said with great certainty: "Your Majesty, it will definitely be." ”

You don't look at how much hatred you're pulling.

The Central Plains Shi clan who were forced to migrate may be eager for Dading to cook your majesty.

"In that case, we should send a trail of soldiers to protect our soldiers." Liu Wei said.

"Naturally, it should be, and the minister also wants to advise Your Majesty like this." Cao Cao laughed.

Zhu Jun looked at Liu Wei and then at Cao Cao, with thousands of question marks in his heart.

Why does he understand what they say, but he doesn't understand the meaning?

"So you won't start another war, will you?" Liu Wei asked.

The imperial army had just been divided, and his feet had not yet stepped into the gate of Luoyang, so he didn't want to go out again soon.

"Probably not."

Cao Cao estimated and said, "Even if a war is provoked, Yanzhou and Yingchuan are both heavily armed, and it should be safe to defend and not attack." ”

Dantomi firmly believes that there should be no more war this year. Yuan Shao is afraid that he wants our army to retreat, Yuan Shu and Liu Biao are involved in Sun Quan, and he probably can't take the initiative to attack. ”

Liu Wei nodded, "It seems to be the same, Meng De looked at the arrangement of this matter, so as to be fine and perfect!" ”

"Yui!" Cao Cao said happily.

Although I don't know why, what the emperor did was really too much of his heart.

It's like an idea that pops into my mind's eye.

Zhu Jun: ......

He felt that something was seriously wrong with this gentleman and a minister.

Although he still hasn't figured out what kind of conspiracy the two of them have just discussed.

But it's certainly not going to be a good thing, and there must be a deep meaning behind it.

“司徒啊,第三第四个篮子,朕想朝廷应该准备几支商队,攥住一些命脉,增加岁收。” 刘辩对朱儁说道,不正经的要做,正经的就更要做了。

Zhu Jun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this sound like a personal thing.

"Your Majesty means salt and iron?" Zhu Jun asked.

Liu Wei bowed his head and said: "Not only that, the imperial court monopolizes salt and iron, but the imperial court should also intervene in things related to people's livelihood such as coal and grain, but it is also forbidden to restrict private trading." Unless, the imperial court should sell weapons! ”

"Bing...... Weapons?! Zhu Jun was so shocked that his two eyes almost popped out on the spot.

To whom are you selling weapons?!

Why does this sound so wrong?

"The weapons that will be used as supervisors are already very mature, and the Xiyuan Army has also completed the replacement of weapons, and the old armor is piled up in the warehouse and can only wait for mold, so it is better to use waste." Liu Wei said.

"I'll give you an example, people like Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao seem to have been scolding for a long time, the feud is obvious, the court should send someone to sell the armor to Yuan Shu, if he attacks Yuan Shao, let him make a profit."

"It is also beneficial to Zhang Lu of Lizhou, and Gongsun Du of Liaodong are both very good buyers."

"Especially Gongsun Du, although he is not subordinate to me, but he attacks foreign tribes, I still appreciate it very much, and he should be funded!"

Zhu Jun's frightened face changed.

The emperor really wants to come out of it, how can he do this!

"Your Majesty, by no means! How can you fatten others because of small profits, you are an enemy. The country will inevitably be unified, and these people will inevitably become enemies of the imperial court, and in the future they will use the weapons sold to them by the imperial court to slaughter our soldiers. Zhu Jun admonished loudly, he would never agree to this.

Cao Cao's eyes flickered, his face thoughtful.

At first, he had the same idea as Zhu Jun, but once that thought turned around, he suddenly felt that the emperor's whimsical idea was very real.

"Situ, it's not right for you to think so." Cao Cao handed the tea he was holding to the accompanying guards, and then said.

A touch of anger appeared on Zhu Jun's face, "You also approve of this matter?" ”

"Yes, the lower officials are in favor." Cao Cao said, "Please Situ Rong let me explain, is it considered cannibalism for the imperial court to sell soldiers and Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to fight each other?" ”

“…… Calculate. Although Zhu Jun was angry, he still said affirmatively.

"Since it is calculated, if they continue to fight, will they all lose their troops and lose their morale?"

“…… Be. ”

"The imperial court sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight, and at the same time harvests a lot of money and grain, is it considered a profitee?"

“…… Calculate. ”

"Yuan Shu is weak, but Yuan Shao is strong, Yuan Shu shouldn't be able to beat Yuan Shao?"

"It should ...... Right. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Jun felt more and more wrong.

Cao Cao's words are very reasonable, but they always feel weird.

He forcibly interrupted Cao Cao's words and said, "But with the support of the imperial court's armor, Yuan Shu will inevitably become strong!" ”

This is at the heart of his opposition.

"With money and food, our army will become stronger. The princes of the world are in the dust, but no one dares to spend such a huge amount of money and food to feed the soldiers who make a living from the war, only Your Majesty has such courage! Those money and food are in the hands of His Majesty, and they can play the role of others several times. Cao Cao waved his arms and said in a loud voice.

"Use the old armor in exchange for much-needed money and food, this business, not only does not lose money, but also makes a lot of money!"

Zhu Jun: ???

No, he had to pick it up.

He held his forehead with one hand and waved at Cao Cao.

Liu Wei glanced at Cao Cao appreciatively.

is worthy of Boss Cao, his little thought has been pinched.

The idea of making war money in this way has not been opened up at all.

The people's livelihood is withering, the social material reserves are extremely low, and no one dares to think so.

But Liu Wei not only dared to think, but also dared to do.

After a long while, the group had already circled around to the Sunset Inn again.

Zhu Juncai suddenly became uncertain, and asked hesitantly, "How much is Your Majesty going to sell?" ”

"It depends, how much can the buyers eat? I don't think the court has a lot of money and food. Liu Wei said.

Zhu Jun arched his hand and bowed down, "Your Majesty, please go back and think about this matter." ”

"Yes!" Liu Wei agreed.

This is the right that the three dukes must have, and he can only use the way of consultation.

Without Sangong, it will naturally not be so troublesome.

But now is not the right time to stab the imperial court's system of power.

The external turmoil is huge, and Liu Wei must stabilize the internal stability that he has won so hard.

Zhu Jun then retired and entered the city first.

"Did Meng De think Situ would agree?" While eating at the Sunset Inn, Liu Wei asked casually.

Cao Cao shook his head, "But Captain Huangfu should agree." ”

"I guess he should go back to discuss." Liu Wei said.

……

Following.

Led by the three dukes, he led hundreds of officials from the court to the city gate to welcome the emperor's triumph.

Liu Wei personally paid tribute to the gods and comforted his ancestors, who had little to do with him, and then returned to the palace.

I haven't seen her for several months, and Tang Ji is getting more and more slim.

When I started walking, I was about to catch up with Cai Wenji, and I shook it very badly.

That's the real thing.

Unlike later generations of women, many of them are set off.

一衬一托,看着虽然挺凶悍,可里面到底是大是小,只有见过的人知道。

"Your Majesty."

The voice was like a yellow warbler, and he shouted out, almost making Liu Wei's bones crispy.

"My queen has worked hard, come, sit on my lap, let me take a good look." Liu Wei patted his thigh.

The sixteen-year-old boy pretended to be old and serious, which made Tang Ji laugh out loud.

"The concubine talks about hard work, and the concubine only hates that she can't help His Majesty to fight in the east and west." Tang Ji sat down as he said, "I can only sit in the palace all day and pray for Your Majesty, looking forward to Your Majesty's safe return." ”

Tang Ji unintentionally twisted his buttocks twice, and instantly hooked Liu Wei's blood and qi square.

"There are many things in the palace, and I have always worried that you will not be able to cope with it, but now it seems that you have done a good job." Under the guise of speaking, Liu Wei moved one hand twice naturally.

Tang Ji's pretty face turned red in a flash, as if the red glow was sprinkled all over the sky.

"Your Majesty...... Well...... You should go to the Empress Dowager's palace to say hello first, now, no...... Not so good. She whispered, wriggling.

In an instant, Liu Wei seemed to be poured down by a basin of cold water.

He really forgot about it.

In fact, he didn't care about that fame at all, he had done worse things anyway.

He is now giving back to Mrs. He, and it is entirely for the sake of the original owner.

Live instead of others.

"She hasn't tossed anymore these days, has she?" Liu Wei asked.

The strange feeling on her body made Tang Ji's body lean back slightly, gently tugging at Liu Wei's clothes.

She bit her thin lip lightly, with a little uneasiness in her eyes, and shook her head, "Back to Your Majesty, no." ”

The simple-minded Tang Ji didn't hide the subtle changes in her demeanor at all, which was seen by Liu Wei at a glance.

"Say, I'm not going to do anything to her." Liu Wei's face turned cold.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, it's really nothing. Tang Ji said in a panic.

"Huh?"

Liu Wei glanced over, and Tang Ji's shoulders slowly collapsed.

She said in a low voice: "The blockade of Changle Palace is extremely strict, and although the Queen Mother has done a few small things, it has not caused any impact. ”

"It's just that later, the Queen Mother seemed to have gone crazy, cursing His Majesty and the first emperor all day long, and chanting scriptures and drawing talismans, that's all ......"

Liu Wei bowed, "I know." ”

"Come on, pass the decree, remove half of the staff of Changle Palace, don't restrict the Queen Mother's actions in the palace too much."

Seeing Liu Wei move, Zhao Ye, who quietly withdrew, walked in.

"Yui!"

"Drive Changle Palace." Liu Wei got up and shook off the wrinkled clothes that had been pressed out by Tang Ji.

"Yui!"
