When someone said this, the other ministers were actually unwilling to accept it, originally after arriving in Xudu, Cao Cao never came to fight for power and profit, except for going to the court every day, he would only enter the palace when there was a major matter to discuss.

This kind of situation is the most peaceful for them, the powerful princes greeted the Han Emperor Dingdu, but the power of the three princes and nine kings has never been touched, it is enough to see that he is at least doing the things of loyal ministers.

The Manchu ministers gradually forgot to praise this prince, and a small number of people thought that he was a loyal minister, so as to make friends, and sent all the talents in the family to Cao Cao's command, serving in Yuzhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

Cao Cao himself constantly sent troops and horses to consolidate the two large counties of Runan and Yingchuan, so as to defend the southern part of the capital.

Now that I ask for people, I just want to get up and praise it......

So, stuck here again, they were the first to abandon the idea and continue to deliberate.

Liu Xie was obviously exhausted, and thought that after the Han Dynasty established the capital, the princes would come to pay tribute, and they would be able to settle down, and according to the previous system, they would collect taxes every year, and then appease the officials of the states and counties, so that they could return to the stable world of the year, and the troubled times could end.

Now it seems that everything is waiting to be rebuilt, the difference is money, and the world is still falling apart.

Although the princes paid tribute and were also edicted as officials, they still did not come to the pilgrimage to meet the saints, but only sent envoys to show their achievements in the local area over the years, so as to show that they had no rebellious heart.

Speaking of later, Zhu Jun couldn't help but sigh: "Everyone, now the treasury is not rich enough, the tribute is only the land of the five states, and Jiangdong has not come to the court, Yizhou, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou have no movement, and the other two states can still be ignored, but Yizhou is rich in products and prosperous people, which is the foundation of Emperor Gaozu's prosperity, and Liu Yan is the pastor, who is the emperor's prince, why did he not respond?" ”

"Perhaps, we should issue another edict and order Yizhou to immediately send tribute to Xudu, and this difficulty can be solved."

Yang Biao's elegant face had a hint of refinement, he immediately stroked his beard, and shook his head solemnly: "Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, now we must first solve the people's grievances, these mansions and land, if they are forcibly expropriated, may cause riots, or let the craftsmen shrink, only need to build the palace......"

"Oh, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the city is not strong, how dare the people live in peace? Only build a palace, then Cao Cao will immediately enter the court, does Taiwei want to try? "There were thousands of soldiers and horses on his side, but he could no longer afford to recruit more soldiers and horses, because the treasury did not have enough food and grass.

Only after the completion of the capital as soon as possible and the announcement to the world can we continue to attract the people to live and the merchants to pass. Can open Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou three states of the business road, according to hundreds of years of experience, the business line access, agriculture and mulberry consolidation, in order to get rich, there is prosperity and stability.

If not, there is only a palace in Xudu, and there is no solid city wall outside, and there is no magnificence of the imperial city, and the people will be disappointed when they see it, and if they want to revive the revival of the Han family, they must start from construction.

And this construction cannot be a cool construction of hard work, but must ensure the stability of the people.

It's also difficult for them, it's difficult, the taxes have been confiscated for a few years, and the tributary states and counties will not fully support them, and the only one who supports them is none other than Cao Mengde, but he still has to raise 100,000 soldiers and horses.

"Everyone, Aiqing, Aiqing......" At this time, Liu Xie, who was already sitting and listening impatiently, spoke, and said softly: "Why don't you go to Cao Qing's house for help?" Since he is loyal to the monarch and the country, and he has rescued me from the thieves, he will definitely help at this time. ”

Dong Cheng didn't know what to say, so he hurriedly came back and bowed his hand, and said: "Your Majesty, Cao, General Cao is now leading 100,000 soldiers to raise soldiers and horses in Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and the money and food may not be enough to build a huge imperial city." ”

"For the sake of today, it should be best to cut back on the previous assumptions."

"Cut, cut by much? How is it compared to Luoyang? Liu Xie asked with a bitter face.

Dong Cheng secretly looked at the faces of several ministers, and then said with a smile: "It should be...... Less than three percent of Luoyang, just enough. ”

"Your Majesty, Luoyang is a century-old ancient capital, after years of vicissitudes and changes, more than ten generations of operation, before it can reach the point of unprecedented prosperity, Dong Zhuo burned down not a city, but hundreds of years of hard work...... "Dong Chengyan's meaning is that in just one year, it is absolutely unrealistic to build a prosperous and vast city like Luoyang in Xudu.

Now I am afraid that Your Majesty will have to build a Luoyang City, so that there will be a disagreement with the ministers, and it will be troublesome.

"Sancheng ......" Liu Xie pondered for a moment, "Then what about the capital?" Even the state and county governance offices and the assassination history department are not as good as ......"

"Ladies and gentlemen, have you divided all the tributary money and eaten it to fill in the family's leaks?" Liu Xie asked pitifully.

Yang Biao, Han Rong, Zhu Jun and others all had their beards trembling violently, their postures were almost unstable, and they looked up incredibly, and immediately drooped down when they found that they were rude.

Liu Xie's words resounded through the hall again, slowly drifting: "The people present, there are famous families of the ministers of many generations, and there are relatives of my Han Emperor, when they were trapped in Chang'an, they only had the feeling of worrying about the country, and they had no ability to save the country. ”

In his mind, he remembered what he had discussed after being rescued by Zhang Han that day, he was forced to stay by his side to protect him and walk all the way, Zhang Han didn't like to talk about people behind his back, but he still said a fact.

The Kwantung princes expanded their territories in their own territories, and even Yuan Shao and others once pushed Liu Yu to ascend the throne in the east, not serving the emperor of Chang'an.

At that time, they were advocating for a Han in the east and a Han in the west.

Now that I have returned to the East, can the things I advocated at the beginning be different? I'm afraid it's still the same.

Yuan Shao didn't like to be edicted.

On the way back to the east, although they received edicts and paid tribute, what about their hearts? should not pay attention to me, the young son of heaven who was captured by Dong Zhuo when he was young.

However, because of their fame and family background, these ministers kept asking Yuan Shao to greet them, and they decided to go to Yecheng Yunyun, Wei County......

didn't take that Cao Gong in his eyes, but also regarded me as an ignorant teenager.

His face suddenly turned cold: "I, only if you are the saints who practice Confucianism and Taoism, learn from the country with their talents, do not make good use of soldiers, and do not marry parties, this is the case; I also look forward to the fact that when you really run the country, you can bring my Han back to prosperity, but now it seems that this is not the case, but I don't understand, what did Cao Gong do wrong, he didn't compete with the princes, you really all occupy? ”

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, did they come to help when they returned to the east?"

When Dong Cheng heard this, he immediately stepped forward and bowed, nodded and said, "Here, here!" Your Majesty, you don't know, Yuan Gong received a tribute at that time, and immediately sent the general Qu Yi from Wei County, led 30,000 soldiers and horses to build a grain route along the way, and ordered the people to prepare wine and food on the way before coming to greet him. ”

"I can't save my life, he is still slowly preparing to eat along the way, don't you really understand what Juxin is!"

Liu Xie scolded directly, like the dark Guangxiu, he pointed at Dong Cheng's nose in person, and the guards outside the door heard the movement, and they all looked over, and two commanders had already entered the hall with axes, ready to escort at any time.

These guards are all taken from the Fu family's disciples, and they are one of the few people who are still loyal to Liu Xie, because Queen Fu's family is very large, although she is not called a prince, but the resources of money, food, and people will not be less.

"Your Majesty forgives your sins!"

Dong Cheng was sweating profusely and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

The Tai Lieutenant, the Tai Fu, the Tai Servant, and the Great Si Nong standing next to him all dared not make a sound, they had never seen such an angry Liu Xie, and this anger was full of resentment and disappointment.

I don't know how long this scene lasted, and I looked up a few times to persuade him, but when I saw Liu Xie's eyes, I lowered my head again.

As a general, he now understands a hidden danger.

If they disappoint the Son of Heaven, then this noble saint who still has the status of an emperor will set his sights on Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will not let go of this opportunity, and will definitely take the opportunity to control the court, and it is also at the will of the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty," he immediately bowed his hand, "although we are deliberating, we must listen to Your Majesty's decision, and as for what to do, please give me instructions." ”

Liu Xiedao: "From among the families, subsidize the court. ”

He looked at Yang Biao, Fu Wan and the others, and added: "I understand, you and others are all loyal ministers of my Han Dynasty, with a solid family background and a hundred years of history. ”

The Han is finished, whose clan are you?

"This ......"

Several people looked at each other, their faces were embarrassed, the family's assets have been continuously consumed over the years, and they have been divided to support the princes of each family, but there are not many left to the Han court, after all, they were all in Chang'an at that time, who would use it to support Li Dao Guo Yan?

Liu Xie's words put them all in a dilemma.

Instead of taking it out to fund Cao Cao now, it is better to ...... Let Cao Cao take on this responsibility.

Yang Biao sighed and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, even this is just a waste of money and food, and the foundation of each family is now the most important confidence to accumulate behind Your Majesty, so it is better to ask Cao Gong for assistance." ”

"The position of Sikong can be given to Cao Gong, and he is ordered to use the treasury of the country and the way of construction, what does Your Majesty think?"

The new dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty followed the Sikong, the rank of ten thousand stones, and the gold seal purple ribbon.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there was no such official, and in the first year of Emperor Suihe, he changed his name to Yushi Dafu as the Great Sikong; In the second year of Emperor Mourning's Jianping, he was reinstated as the imperial historian; In the second year of Yuanshou, it was restored to Dasikong; In the twenty-seventh year of Guangwu's construction, the word "big" was changed to "Sikong", and he was in charge of water and soil affairs.

Liu Xie let out a long sigh of relief and nodded, "I think it should be so." ”

Several people discussed for a long time, and finally had no choice but to make this choice.

When he walked out of the hall and went down the stairs, Yang Biao was still thinking about the abnormality of today's Son of Heaven, he would not be like this in the past, he listened to the deliberations of several important ministers, so as to obey the resolution, why would he be committed to Cao Cao now?

I feel that after His Majesty returned to the east, he arrived in Xudu, and his heart seemed to have changed slightly.

I don't know if this change is a good thing or a bad thing.

……

Soon after the palace people sent the news to Cao Cao.

Taiwei Yang Biao and servant Han Rong came to see him in person, wanting to inform him first that the Son of Heaven wanted to pay tribute to the lawsuit.

But Cao Cao sternly refused, feeling that virtue was not worthy, and he could not worship the official for merit like this, he was only a general for the Son of Heaven to fight for the four conveniences, and after several pulls, the two left in a huff.

That night, Cao Cao immediately sent someone to invite Zhang Han, Xi Zhong, and Guo Jia, and found that they were all drinking and discussing in Zhang Han's mansion.

Cao Cao said suspiciously: "These people want to push me to be Sikong, what do they want?" ”

"Can you guess?"

The three of them glanced at each other, and Zhang Han said: "Maybe, it is related to the previous Ziyu buying a house and land, he bought too much, so when he wants to buy and resettle, he can report too many people, which will cause the people's grievances." ”

Cao Cao suddenly understood the reason, and laughed leisurely, "That's right, wait for them to hurry for a while." ”

"In the land of Xudu, what a huge project to build the capital, now think of me."

Cao Cao was sure in his heart that this year was more time spent with them.

"Some time ago, it was found out that on the way to welcome the Son of Heaven to the east, there were soldiers and horses in Runan to obstruct it, but the soldiers and horses he gathered had been dispersed by Xu Ding and Xu Chu.

Hearing this, Guo Jia, who had always mastered a huge amount of internal and external information, suddenly moved his eyes, stood up and arched his hand: "Lord, speaking of Yuan Shu, there is some information below, which can be used for the lord's strategy. ”

"Feng Xiao said quickly," Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia with satisfaction, he was really satisfied with Feng Xiao, because every time he needed information to assist his thinking, he would give a lot of information related to it just right.

And there will also be penetrating insights, and whether or not these ideas will eventually come to fruition, they will be very exciting to discuss.

"Back then, the Taifu and the servants held the Fu Festival to appease the princes of Kwantung, and when Li Dao was in power, he listened to the words of the princes and made a decision, including the Jin Shang who wanted to seize Yanzhou."

"But these people, whether they are Zhao Chang in the service or Ma Riyan, the Taifu, were all detained by Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu robbed the Fujie, recruited talented and righteous people in the name of the Son of Heaven, and wantonly recruited soldiers."

"To mention, the envoys who followed at that time all dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, if Jia's guess was correct, almost all of the people who went to Yangzhou to defect to Yuan Shu were under house arrest in Huainan, can the lord make a statement to the Son of Heaven?"

Cao Cao's eyes lit up, this was no longer some information, it was almost a feasible plan, he smiled and nodded, and said, "I will enter the palace immediately." ”

As he spoke, he asked someone to prepare official uniforms, and planned to enter the palace immediately to face the saint.

When he was about to walk out of the house, he glanced at Zhang Han strangely, frowned and asked, "No, why are you drinking at home?" ”

"As a lieutenant of the Tun Cavalry, shouldn't you be patrolling around the Imperial City with Dian Wei? Hoarding Captain Sima, but you have the responsibility of garrisoning Kyoto, Zhang Bochang, you left your post without permission? ”

The corners of Zhang Han's mouth twitched suddenly, I have changed my official position to Han nationality, you can't still deduct it, right?

He hurriedly said: "My lord, this is my fault, the matter of the imperial city garrison is occupied by the general who has finished ambushing, and I am just a false name." ”

After hearing this, Cao Cao lowered his head and thought about it, looked around and said, "This matter can also be recorded, so I need someone to enter the palace with me and help together." ”

Zhang Han arched his hand and said: "Find someone who seems to be loyal and good, but is good at acting and pretending, who is the best at this here?" ”

They all stared at Zhang Han when they heard this, including Cao Cao, who was also motionless with firm eyes.

The whole lobby can be heard pins falling, and it is very quiet.

Zhang Han leaned back slightly and sighed, "Okay, I'll go." ”

Sorry, it's late. Originally, it was generally customary to send a chapter in the early morning.,And then yesterday in the early morning, the code word suddenly had a feeling of palpitations.,It's like the kind of "drip-to-do" rhythm palpitations.,So I'm afraid that I'm forced to return to M78 due to energy exhaustion.,So I slept.,And then maybe I fell asleep on a different day.,I didn't get up until noon.,Dizzy.。

Now it's okay, start to change violently, try to finish the whole day in the future, don't do it in the early morning, I advise all readers to too, don't stay up late, go to bed early and get up early, try to follow the ancient truth, I sleep when I sleep, I wake up when I wake up.
