Chapter Ninety-Two: Master Yan's Advice

“…… If His Majesty can respond to Yunhou's invitation, it will not only be the blessing of the heavenly family, but also the blessing of the people of my Han Dynasty! Liu Che put Yan Sicong's recital on the bookcase, and his face could drip water.

The dragon rides the clouds and the tiger rides the wind, and he is the true ruler of the world. But he couldn't even do the owner of a few horses, he just detained a few of Yunhou's horses. almost made a mess in the world, what is the point of being the emperor if you can't be the king. It's better to be a free prince.

"Your Majesty, Master Yan is here. Waiting outside the Chengming Palace! Han Yan walked under the Dan Fan and bowed down to report to Liu Cheqi.

Yan Sicong's letter was sent urgently from Shandong 800 miles, and there must have been a letter from home sent with it. The appointment of the Liu clan, that is, the Mohou is also regarded as the Liu clan. Now it seems that he and Yun Xiao seem to be brothers.

Liu Che gritted his teeth, it was impossible to rectify the situation in front of him, even Mohou. sighed, waved his hand, and said, "Go with me!" ”

The Yan family not only received the title of Gaozu, but also taught Liu Che his knowledge from the age of nine. Speaking of the people that Liu Che respects, what master father Yan, Wei Juan, Ji Di, etc., have to stand aside. After nearly ten years of teaching by word and deed, Liu Che still agrees with this teacher in his heart.

Liu Che personally greeted him at the door of the Chengming Palace, and the palace people and attendants next to him were startled. I don't know where this gray-haired old guy comes from, looking at the big man, I'm afraid that the only one who can have this treatment is the Queen Mother.

"The student has seen the teacher!" Liu Che bowed to Yan Qing, completely like a group of students seeing a teacher. Etiquette is thoughtful and meticulous.

"You are a human king, don't be so polite when you see you in the future. Let's go inside! Yan Qing said a word to Liu Che, and the big stabbing walked towards the Chengming Palace. The jaws of the palace attendants next to him are about to fall to the mountain at their feet, arrogant and so fucking arrogant. The emperor gave a salute and said a few words about the emperor. What is this old man doing, the majesty of the Empress Dowager doesn't seem to be comparable to him.

The September sun poured into the Chengming Hall like a waterfall, and there was no need to light the candle mountain in the Chengming Palace. The sunlight reflected through the floor to every corner of the main hall, and the whole hall seemed to be much more spacious.

Liu Che did not sit on his emperor's throne, but sat opposite Yan Qing with a respectful expression.

"Why are you so depressed?" Yan Qing's eyes stared at Liu Che, but Liu Che knelt down in front of him in an orderly manner. Han Yan waved his hand. The palace attendants in the Chengming Hall retreated one after another. Han Yan was the last to retreat. Two chamberlains closed the heavy door of the temple. For a while, the hall was so quiet that the sound of falling needles could be heard, and Qiandu looked at these two people cautiously, and they didn't dare to come out.

"Student...... Students are not sullen! ”

"Hahaha, Your Majesty has been going to school with her husband since she was nine years old. Could it be that His Majesty thought that he could deceive the old man? The king of a country, how can he speak. ”

"The students are really depressed. I am the emperor and the lord of the world. The teacher said that. He holds the authority of the kingdom for the king. Hand in hand. With Tianxian in his mouth, he is hungry and rich in Ji Sun, and he is humming Lingyi. Yan turned into a plantar tree. The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. This is what the teacher teaches the students.

However, the students only requisitioned 20,000 military horses from Yunhou, and Yunhou made a mess. forced me to live up to the society and ask for peace with my courtiers. Presumably, you have also read the terms of Yunhou's peace, where is the courtier talking to the king. is simply a self-established king, and there is no reason for the king to respect his ministers in his recitals. ”

The more Liu Che spoke, the more angry he became, and poured out the resentment in his heart to Yan Qing. Yan Qing just stroked his beard and listened, and did not participate. When Liu Che was tired of speaking, he said: "Hehehe, as a monarch, he naturally holds the authority of the country and holds the king." But the old man didn't say that for the monarch, you can take advantage of it and take it for you!

Yunhou's military horse passed by the border pass of the Han Dynasty, and he had already paid taxes to His Majesty, and since he had collected other people's taxes. Naturally, it was necessary to ensure the safety of these military horses, but His Majesty not only did not protect Yunhou's military horses. He also coincidentally requisitioned these military horses in the name of how different from bandits. If someone requisitioned His Majesty's military horses like this, what would His Majesty do?

The old man thought, I am afraid that His Majesty has done more radically than Yunhou. Waving troops in Shandong, making the Han everywhere wolf smoke is also a desirable move. ”

Yan Qing said tepidly, and his eyes softened a lot when he looked at Liu Che.

But even so, he ordered that Canglan to break through Jiujiang and connived at the rebellious people to slaughter and loot the city. That's what I'm forcing too? In Liaodong, in the south of the Yangtze River, there were no surrenders left in every battle. Is this also forced? Those are all Han soldiers, and the people in Jiujiang City are all Han people. Liu Che said unconvinced.

"There are some things that Sicong can't say to His Majesty in the letter, but the letter to the old man's home makes it clear. Yun Hou was unconvinced by the water overseas and suffered a vicious illness. When you were in trouble, it was when he was so sick that he almost died.

The arrogant soldiers and fierce generals under his command are all used to killing people. From Jiangnan to the Western Regions to the grasslands, you see which time they are not full of people along the way. It's not that I'm speaking for Yun Hou, if Yun Hou really has three long and two short. If these arrogant soldiers lose control, I am afraid that it will be a disaster for the Han Dynasty. Fortunately, although Yunhou is lying on the couch, his body is getting better day by day.

Jiujiang City broke that the King of Jiujiang didn't move? Dou Yuan's entire army was wiped out, and Dou Yuan was not unscathed? Yunhou did not do things perfectly, leaving room everywhere. In fact, I just want to reconcile with His Majesty, no matter how I say that Princess Nangong is also in the Yun family. Yun Hou categorically would not do things absolutely. ”

"I'm afraid that with the example of Yunhou, all the princes and princes in the world will not obey the orders in the future. Then what is this gentleman called, isn't the Han Dynasty falling apart? ”

"Your Majesty! This king was originally in the world with all the princes and scholars, and Gaozu asked Xiao He back then. I am in the ninety-five, why should I listen to your words?

Xiao He said that his subordinates made 3,000 laws. All the rules must be done by the officials, if His Majesty does not listen to the words of his subordinates. It was a big world with a large population. How can His Majesty be governed, and how can the world be prosperous? Without these officials, how would His Majesty rule the people?

Listen to it, Your Majesty, for the king is not to govern the people but to govern the officials, this official rule is a real article. Gaozu divided the princes and kings of the world, and the original intention was to use family affection as a bond. Let the Liu family flourish and resist external humiliation with the same spirit.

But when did the princes and kings of the world stop, from the time of Gaozu. Until His Majesty's grandfather, as well as the first emperor, when did the princes and kings stop? During the period of the first emperor, Liu Bi and other seven princes and kings set off the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms. But after so many rebellions, the national honor of the Han Dynasty still passed into the hands of His Majesty. Has the Han Dynasty collapsed? From the old man's point of view, the country is more stable.

Why is that? This is because, since the first emperor, the imperial court has gradually weakened the power of various princes. In particular, the right of the princes and kings to take charge of the army was restricted, and now except for a few extremely senior princes and kings. Other princes, few of them have gone on the horse to govern the army and the people on the horse.

The old man thinks that Yunhou's trouble is very good. The imperial court could take the opportunity to continue to weaken the military power of the princes and kings, and then return the power to appoint low-level officials to the imperial court. In the future, the princes will only enjoy the taxes in the treasury. It is better to be a rich man in An An An than to train soldiers and horses every day and think about grand causes. ”

Yan Qing talked eloquently, and Liu Che's expression was unconvinced from the beginning. Gradually, I became more focused, and in the end, I was thinking more seriously.

"What does the teacher mean is that I want to take advantage of Yunhou's incident to continue to implement my father's policy of cutting the domain?" Liu Che thought for a long time, and finally spoke.

"It's not about cutting the feud, it's about gradually breaking the feud. There are no two heavens and no two people, how can there be two suns in the world. The princes just want to compete with the sun and the moon, and it turns out that Gaozu is wrong. Family affection does not extinguish the desire for power, as evidenced by the rebellions of the princes and kings.

The old man presented his feelings to His Majesty, and the main content was after the death of the princes and kings. The fiefs of the princes and kings can be divided equally among their sons. In this way, Lao Tzu divides the son, and the son divides the son. After a few generations, I am afraid that these princes only have a few acres of thin fields to live. At that time, I am afraid that if His Majesty asks them to rebel, they will not be able to make it. (To be continued......)
