Chapter 549: The Stupidity of Preparation

In the deep winter, it is bitterly cold, but the palace is a lot lively.

On the terrace, Liu Bei was wrapped in a big jacket and was condescending, watching the riding and archery drills of Liu Chan and the attendants of the East Palace in the school field.

Seeing that Zhao Tong's arrow hit the bull's-eye, Liu Bei applauded and laughed, saying that Zhao Yun said: "The tiger father has no dog, Zilong is heroic and extraordinary, and this son is a must." ”

Zhao Yun arched his hand and said: "The kid is rough at riding and shooting, and he is not as good as the generals in the army, and he can't afford His Majesty's false praise." ”

Liu Bei pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Zilong teaches his son to be strict, and his son is successful. ”

"Your Majesty, it's the turn of the crown prince!"

The attendant had sharp eyes, pointed to Liu Chan, who was riding a horse and galloping on the school ground, and shouted.

"Prince, hit!" The squire shouted with joy.

"Good!"

"No!"

Hearing that Liu Bei was going to send the singer and Huo Jun, Wang Cang wanted to tell Liu Bei that Huo Jun was no longer young, and he was afraid that he didn't have much energy. But after thinking about it, Wang Cang finally gave up this idea.

Zhang Fei held his stomach, his eyes slanted at Liao Li, and warned: "Just talk about things, don't be presumptuous and judgmental." ”

After being the emperor for so many years, Liu Bei was full of flattering words. Ordinary monarchs may have long forgotten about it, but although Liu Bei is old, fortunately, he still has some reason and is not swayed by the left and right.

Liu Bei's expression was as usual, he smiled lightly, and said: "If Jianghuai is populated, whether it is the Northern Expedition to Shouchun or the Eastern Tuqingxu, all soldiers can be used. ”

"The children of the Huai people have returned to their hometowns, and the six counties of Xu Huai should be prosperous here!"

Immediately afterwards, Liu Bei saw Liu Chan going to comfort Zhuge Qiao, who missed the bull's eye, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Hearing this, Liu Bei scolded with a smile: "Cao Pi is good at writing, and he practices martial arts less, which means that he is full of literature and martial arts, which can be described as a British master!" ”

"No!"

Liu Bei saw that Liu Chan hit the target, smiled heartily, and said: "After several years of hard work, I finally achieved a small success, and I lived up to my hard work." ”

Seeing the similar appearance of Huo Yi and his father, Liu Bei remembered Huo Jun and asked, "What is Huo Du's recent situation?" ”

The king who succeeds should have great wisdom, have a pattern, be tolerant of people, and listen to good words, and not be a person with a narrow temperament.

Liao Li hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the Huai people from the south have returned to their hometowns one after another, and Huo Du has recruited the children of the Huai people to be honest and Xu Huai, and all of them have official appointments. It seems to be widely popular~"

"Come on, select five beautiful singers in Shu and send them to Jianghuai to reward Huo Du for the hardships of labor and government."

Being warned by Zhang Fei, Liao Li showed indignation, but lowered his head again.

Liu Bei stroked his beard and groaned, and said: "Although the country is recuperating today, I am working hard. However, the training of the forbidden army must not be slackened, so as to wait for the time to use the troops. ”

"Boxian (Huo Yi), it's really good!"

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, the prince is both civil and military, and he will definitely be a Ming monarch in the future." The minister touted.

He has laid down thousands of miles of territory for Liu Chan, and Liu Chan is destined not to have to run around the battlefield like him in the future. Therefore, martial arts and literary talents are all plus points for kings, and they cannot determine whether Liu Chan can govern a country well.

Seeing that Huo Yi missed the initial target, and then learned from experience, and then hit the arrow target, Liu Bei couldn't help but nod and commented.

Zhang and Zhao replied, "The minister is here!" ”

"Where are Yide and Zilong!"

After a while, Yang Yi held a towel and walked quickly along the corridor, and said, "Your Majesty, Nanzhong is in a hurry!" ”

"What?"

Yang Yi opened the scarf, quickly read the full text, and said: "Your Majesty, Mi Nanzhong and Zhuqing were cruising in the mountains and rivers, and unfortunately they fell upside down while riding a horse, and their left leg was broken. Today, please submit your resignation, saying that you are old, please be allowed to return to Beijing to recuperate, and hope that Your Majesty will send another minister to serve as the governor of Nanzhong. ”

"Huh?"

Liu Bei took the towel from Yang Yi's hand, browsed the contents of Mi Fang's letter, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no major problem.

Raising the scarf, Liu Bei said helplessly: "If Zifang returns to Beijing from Nanzhong, and his descendants will follow, I am afraid it will be difficult to govern Nanzhong." ”

Under Mi Fang's management, Haoqiang, chieftains and other head snakes have participated in the sale, forming a unique interest group. Every year, slaves and maids, cattle and horses, gold and silver were sent to Wuchu, while Bashu sent silk, bronze, and lacquerware to Nanzhong, a complete closed loop of commerce.

But it is not to say how good Mi Fangzhi was in Nanzhong, although the Southern Han Dynasty grabbed a large amount of materials from Nanzhong, but Nanzhong also obtained a large number of iron tools from the Southern Han Dynasty. With the inflow of materials from the outside world, the local heroes and chieftains became more and more inflated, and they had their own in-laws, and gradually became the emperor of the soil.

For the Northern Expedition, the Han Dynasty chose to govern the south and the middle; Nanzhong Haoqiang and Chieftain chose to cooperate with Mi Fang for the sake of external materials. Therefore, both sides know that they just take what they take. Today's Mi Fang's departure from Nanzhong may upset this balance.

"Your Majesty, it's better to let Mi Nanzhong recuperate and stay in Nanzhong for a few years, so as not to cause chaos in a hurry." Liao Li suggested.

"No!"

Liu Bei paced slightly and said, "Zi Fang left office, how can he force his mind!" ”

Liu Bei has an understanding of his brother-in-law's temperament, and now he can give up the interests of Nanzhong, which shows that Nanzhong has problems that he can't solve, and chooses to run away; Or maybe he's too old to stay in Nanzhong. No matter which one it is, we will choose someone to replace Mi Fang today.

After hesitating for a long time, Liu Bei commanded: "Jian Wei is too guarded by Li Yan, he has governed the county for many years, and he has repeatedly pacified thieves, and his achievements are remarkable. Now he moved to the governor of Nanzhong, worshiped General Anhan, and handed over political affairs with Mi Jun. ”

"No!"

Liu Bei had already planned to use Li Yan, but unfortunately there was no place to vacate it. Now that the governor of Nanzhong is vacant, with Li Yan's ability, it will not be a problem to deal with Nanzhong.

Even if it caused a rebellion in Nanzhong, it happened to send troops to solve it at one time, and in the future, it would no longer pretend to govern Nanzhong, but send officials to actually govern it.

Not long after finishing the political affairs, the attendant came forward to report and said, "Your Majesty, the prime minister asks to see you!" ”

"Please!"

After a few breaths, Zhuge Liang held a feather fan and a woolen jacket and walked along the corridor to the terrace.

"Hello, Your Majesty!"

"Excuse me!"

"I've seen the prime minister!"

"All gentlemen are the same!"

With Zhuge Liang as his companion, Liu Bei immediately let the left and right disperse and said, "Zhuqing, you can leave the palace by yourself!" ”

"No!"

Monarchs and ministers swam on the terraces and corridors, talking about state affairs.

After chatting for a while, Liu Bei put his hand on the covered bridge and asked, "Kong Ming entered the palace this time, could it be that he has something important to say?" ”

Zhuge Liang stroked his fan and smiled, and said: "Your Majesty, do you know that Ma Chao sent Jiang Jian as an envoy, and he will come to Wuhan soon?" ”

"Yesterday I listened to the words of the attendant, and I already know!"

Liu Bei pondered for a while and said: "It's just that Jiang Jian first worshiped Cao Pi, and now he went south from Luoyang, and then worshiped my country, which should not be in line with the etiquette of diplomatic relations." ”

"Haha~"

Zhuge Liang laughed a few times and said: "Liang Ben was suspicious of this, but this morning he suddenly became cheerful, and gradually got Jiang Yin's meaning." ”

"Huh?"

Liu Bei's expression was slightly restrained, and he said, "Please teach Kong Ming!" ”

"Don't dare!"

Zhuge Liang saluted Liu Bei, then stroked the fan and paced, and said: "Liang is the minister, Han is the king." Ma Chao sent an envoy to the Han, how dare he not respect the gift of our country? Therefore, they must go to the table and offer money and goods to show their humility and respect. ”

"Now Jiang Jian made the first envoy to the Wei State, and then to the Han, the gifts he carried, Gaiduo for Cao Pi, and there is a reason to provide it to His Majesty? Even if Jiang Jian doesn't know, how can Ma Chao not know? ”

"Acting rebelliously and discording with common sense, the minister thought deeply and thought that Jiang Jian must have a plan, and the gift he offered may not be good horse money, but want to introduce himself."

Hearing this, Liu Bei thought for a moment and said, "In this case, should I send Shangqing to greet him and treat him with the courtesy of a guest." ”

Pacing and thinking, Zhuge Liang smiled: "Jiang Yin, the person of Longyou." If you go to Luoyang, you will be entertained by Cao Pi. Why did you go south and tell your majesty? ”

"Liang thought that it was Jiang Jian who looked at Cao Pi without the appearance of the hero, and he specialized in the red tape, in order to find the old place of the lord and go south, in order to observe the demeanor of His Majesty."

Zhuge Liang stroked the feather fan lightly, and said clearly: "Your Majesty treated the sages in the past, and how did he treat Jiang Jian with courtesy." Wuhan Yin Zhong is all kinds of things, everything is as usual, and the old policy is not changed. ”

Liu Bei stroked his beard and asked, "Why does Kong Ming think that Jiang Jian wants to serve the Ming Lord, instead of trying his best to be loyal to Ma Chao?" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled dumbly and said: "The world is governed by the north and the south, and Ma Chao suddenly flourished, and the reason why the Longren used it was nothing more than to be afraid of its soldiers and horses." Bo Yan seized the two counties of Longnan and forced the alliance under the city, Ma Chao was strong and strong, and the world knew that Longxi Shi An Neng was used for it. ”

"The good words of the king, the stupidity of preparation!"
