Chapter 15: With the King (Ask for Subscriptions, Ask for Book Reviews)

Thanks to the young man for saving his life, looking at the appearance of the young man, he is ready to go to Xiangcheng, and the little woman is also ready to go to Xiangcheng, I don't know if I can go with the young man. ”

Liu Siyong has never refused this kind of thing, the young lady whistled, and soon a red date horse ran over, this young lady rode on the horse, and Liu Siyong went hand in hand with him.

Liu Siyong asked about the woman's surname, and learned that the woman was also surnamed Liu, a person from the capital, and came to Hezuo Sifu to play.

"Miss Liu, you have a lot of guts, you dare to come here from the capital with three servants."

The little woman heard in the boudoir that the world was peaceful, and there was nothing to do in all directions, and when she heard that the river was a prosperous place in the world, she couldn't help but have the heart of visiting. There was no danger along the way, but I didn't expect that there were some problems in this Xianhe Mansion. ”

Liu Siyong shook his head and told Miss Liu that the world is indeed peaceful, but there are still rogue thugs, and it is still too dangerous for a woman like Miss Liu to bring this kind of person.

Miss Liu smiled and said, "Actually, if it weren't for Shaoxia's shot, I would have been ready to make a move." Shaoxia, don't look at the little woman like this, under normal circumstances, more than a dozen big men can't get in. ”

Liu Siyong also smiled and said, "Really? It's really disrespectful, disrespectful, I didn't expect Miss Liu to be a hidden woman. ”

Miss Liu smiled shyly, and then asked Liu Siyong about it.

Regarding his own affairs, Liu Siyong did not miss the opportunity to brag, and made his literary and martial arts unique in the world, unparalleled on the ground.

After listening to him, Miss Liu couldn't help but smile and said to Liu Siyong: "Liu Shaoxia, the little girl has also heard about the autumn festival in her spare time, and over the years, it seems that only this year's Tanhua surname is Liu." ”

"Yes, that's my brother."

"Ah, is it? Disrespectful and disrespectful, I didn't expect Liu Shaoxia to be Xiao Sima's son. Miss Liu said with a smile on her face, not knowing whether it was ridicule or really disrespectful.

Liu Siyong saw that Miss Liu was from the capital, and he didn't dare to brag too much, so he could only say: "Xiao Sima is my uncle, and I am his nephew." ”

Miss Liu sighed, then looked at Liu Siyong and said, "I see, the little woman is still puzzled, this little Sima's five sons have all become officials." ”

When Liu Siyong saw Miss Liu say this, he was secretly glad in his heart that he had chatted with Sui Liangzuoxiang, otherwise this time it would have been blown off.

Liu Siyong continued to boast that because he didn't like officialdom, he followed the example of a ranger, wandered around, and acted chivalrous.

"Shaoxia, it's really a capable person, how many scholars want to seek an official and a half-job, only Shaoxia can give up his fame and become a ranger."

"Haha, this is what Xiao Xiahou said, this scripture is read well, and taking bruises is like picking up grass mustard. When I've had enough of playing in the rivers and lakes, I'll go to the saint and ask for an official. ”

The three servants couldn't help but show contempt when they heard Liu Siyong say so loudly, Liu Siyong didn't care and continued to talk.

When they arrived in Xiangcheng, they were lucky, and when it was time to close the city gate, Liu Siyong asked Miss Liu if she had a place to live, and if not, she could help find an inn.

Miss Liu told Liu Siyong that she had a relative in the city who could take refuge in, and there was no problem with her residence.

It's just that it's late today, it's inconvenient for her to invite Liu Siyong to dinner, she asked Liu Siyong's residence, and then left.

Liu Siyong did not return to the inn but went to Mr. Sick Mei's residence, and this Bi Yidong really kept his promise and waited for him to come back for dinner.

This time I ate hot pot, and the four prefectures on the left side of the river, except for those in the southeast prefecture, do not eat spicy, and the other three prefectures all eat spicy.

Liu Siyong has not been accustomed to eating spicy food since he was a child, only after eating a few bites, he felt like a fire in his heart, seeing that Liu Siyong couldn't eat spicy, Bi Yidong patted Liu Siyong's shoulder and said: "Manly husband, you have to be able to eat sweet and sour, you are my disciple, and you will go south and north in the future, and you will have a lot of things to eat." ”

Liu Siyong said yes, and then got a glass of water in his bowl, washed it first and ate it.

When Miss Dong saw this, she couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect Scholar Liu to be so violent." What fun is there when you eat hot pot like this. ”

"Take your time, take your time. I didn't expect Miss Dong to be able to eat spicy food, which was really a small surprise. ”

"After all, if you want to marry in Xiangyun Mansion, how can you not eat spicy?"

Liu Siyong said the same, and slowly ate it.

After eating, Bi Yidong wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and said to Liu Siyong: "Apprentice, have you done the thing I asked you to do?" ”

"It's done, Master, please rest assured, but Master, what should I do next?"

"Next, you will treat that girl well, she is unfamiliar with the place, and needs more help here."

Liu Siyong nodded and looked at Miss Dong, who told Liu Siyong that their trip was going to be delayed again, and they were going to leave after they were done here.

Bi Yidong asked Liu Siyong to stay here to rest, Liu Siyong shook his head, and said that someone was going to the inn to find him tomorrow, and it would be better for him to go back to the inn first.

Bi Yidong didn't stop him and let him go back.

Liu Siyong returned to the inn and found that Sui Liangzuo was not there, he shook his head, no matter these things, Sui Liangzuo is such a big person, and he will not be lost.

After resting until the morning, when he got up to wash his face, Sui Liangsa returned.

Sui Liangzuo smiled at Liu Siyong and said: "Brother Liu, didn't you say yesterday that if I go to the barracks, I may not be reused, so I thought about it yesterday and thought of a good way, you see, this is a letter of recommendation." ”

Liu Siyong took it apart and took a look, and also learned from Yidong's appearance, patted Sui Liangzuo's shoulder and said, "Brother Sui, you are really; Great, the governor himself recommended you. ”

"It's nothing serious, I just went to the governor's yamen, beat the drum, and then walked in, and said something to the governor, and the governor pestered me, so I had to write this letter of recommendation."

Liu Siyong looked at Sui Liangzuo like a monster, and said to Sui Liangzuo: "Brother Sui, are you sure that the governor did not move the execution?" ”

"Execution? What kind of punishment to use, how big is this, is it worth the punishment? ”

Sui Liangzuo said this, thought for a while, and then said, "Brother Liu, do you know? The king has arrived in Xiangcheng. ”

"What, Suiwang, wait, I forgot, Suiwang's fief seems to be nearby."

Sui Liangzuo nodded, he told the governor yesterday that if the governor didn't write this letter, he would go to King Sui himself.

Liu Siyong nodded, Sui Wang is the brother of today's saint, is the eldest son of the Empress Dowager An, when Emperor Ren, he loved this prince quite a lot, folk rumors, if it was not for Emperor Ren died too early, this throne may not fall into the hands of today's saint.

However, today's saints are benevolent and righteous to their brothers, and they are all good places to divide the feuds, and they even give the salt of the imperial court (the license to sell salt in the Yu Dynasty, one stone per citation) to the princes and kings.

After all, salt and iron have always been an important source of the national treasury, although Ding Yin has now brought a lot of income to the imperial court, but the more income the better.

There is only one sentence for the saint to return to the court, with the salt introduction, the princes and kings do not need to be supported by the inner government, and when Emperor Wen was emperor, there were only a few princes and kings of the opposite sex, so naturally there was no need to worry about this matter.

When Emperor Ren arrived, there were eight kings with the same surname, and as for the saints today, there are fourteen kings with the same surname.

In this way, there will be twenty-two kings with the same surname, and it is a burden for the court to provide for them, and the use of salt will neither treat the princes and kings badly, nor will it make the inner government lose much.

The sage understood that the money collected from the salt of the Yu Dynasty was deducted from various levels, and it was good to have one out of ten, and he directly let the prince run it, whether it was a loss or a loss, and the princes were naturally sure.

In addition, in the twelfth year of Xiuwen, the sage also ordered that three generations of kings with the same surname descended, that is, the fourth generation of kings with the same surname, from the king of one word to the king of two characters (one word for the prince and two characters for the king of the county). The prince of the county was beheaded for three generations, which was more and more in the face of the prince of the Yu Dynasty, causing a huge financial burden.

Of course, the most important thing is that in this way, the strength of the saint's lineage can suppress the side lineage, and this lineage will be demoted a generation later than the side lineage.

After this edict came down, naturally some people objected, on the grounds that the prince of the country could be hereditary, and the king with a different surname could also be replaced, but this was not possible when it came to the same surname.

The sage stayed in the middle of these twists and turns, and he didn't bother to refute it at all, even if the prince of the country is thousands of sons and grandchildren, but there can only be twenty-two princes in the world in a lifetime, and the same is true of kings with different surnames.

But if this king with the same surname arrives at six or seven generations, I am afraid that there will be fifty or sixty princes in the world, and then there will really be princes everywhere in the world.

The meaning of the sage to change Yuan Chengren is also obvious, if their brothers are unwilling to do this, then the sage has no choice but to follow the path of Emperor Ren.

In the first year of Chengren, the seven princes of King An, King Sui, King Chu, King Wu, King Liang, King of Qi, and King Ying presented a recital at the same time to support Emperor Ren in doing so.

The seven of them all agreed, and the eight kings of Zhao, Youwang, Luo, and Zhou also offered a recital, willing to accept this demotion and removal.

When the rest of the princes saw this situation, they also obediently offered a recital, and this matter was finalized.

"Brother Sui, I heard that this King Sui is an interesting prince, and after arriving in the fiefdom, he closed his door all day."

"Well, yes, some people say that he is studying hard behind closed doors, and some say that he should have fun behind closed doors, but the palace is strict, and everyone doesn't know what this king is doing."

"It's really rare for such a person to come back to Xiangcheng."

"Maybe it's to receive Xiangguo Gong, after all, he is the host, if he doesn't greet him personally, it doesn't seem good."

"I don't think so, I think it's because the king is panicking at home. I have not heard that I went with the king to see the virtuous prince, and I heard that the virtuous prince intended to marry his daughter to him. Liu Siyong shook his head and said, questioning the statement of seeing Xiangguo Gong.
