Volume 2 Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 8 Ready to Fly Section 7
Chapter 8 Arrow on the String 7 General Li Hong quietly returned to Jinyang City in the middle of the night. Li Hong stepped out of the carriage and looked at Jinyang City bathed in *night* (**please delete), thinking that he was about to reunite with his wife and children, he couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement in his heart, but this excitement disappeared in a blink of an eye as Xun You and Duan Xuan walked to his side.
The ups and downs of the Jinyang Imperial Court were like this black night, which overwhelmed him.
"You go into the palace overnight and die." Li Hong smiled and said to the two,
"Tomorrow morning, I will ask the eldest princess for guilt." Xun Yu sighed heavily, Duan Xuan bowed down in surprise and asked, "The general doesn't enter the palace?" Li Hong shook his head,
"It's late at night, don't disturb the eldest princess to rest." Then he bowed to the two of them and hurried off on his horse.
When he was about to arrive at the General's Mansion, Li Hong suddenly stopped.
"You go back first." Li Hong waved his hand and said to Jia Xu, Fu Gan and others,
"I'll go to General Xu Rong's mansion." Cao Cao, the superintendent of the door, waved to the guards behind him, and the thirty guards turned their horses and took the lead in galloping into the darkness.
Li Honggang wanted to move, but Jia Xu grabbed the reins of his horse,
"General, please think twice. After the general returned to Jinyang, he went to visit Lord Xu Rong without even entering the mansion gate, what does this mean......" Jia Xu, Fu Gan and the others had already heard Duan Xuan talk about Jinyang on the way, and knew that the general's every move at this moment would affect the development of the situation in Jinyang.
The general's visit to Xu Rong now is equivalent to giving a clear answer to the ministers of the Jinyang court, the general supports the eldest princess, which will cause misunderstanding among the ministers and will greatly increase the difficulty of solving the Jinyang crisis.
"General, the matter of Jinyang is very complicated, it is better for you to stay out of the matter for the time being and figure out the ins and outs of the matter." Fu Gan also caught up and whispered,
"General, if you do this, you will only make things more and more complicated." Li Hong sat on the horse, bowed his head and said nothing.
After a while, he looked up at the night sky. The sky is full of stars, and a round of the crescent moon appears and disappears, beautiful and profound.
Li Hong suddenly thought of Lu Longsai, the many brothers who died, and the tens of thousands of heroic souls buried in the Zhonglietai of Longshan.
If a person dies, the soul will fly to the sky and become stars. So can they see me now? Everyone is going to die, and he has been struggling with death and gore for as long as he can remember.
I can live until now, and I can live to stand here and look up at the stars, all because of those brave and loyal brothers in the sky.
One day, I too will die, and my soul will fly to the sky and become a star. Li Hong's restless heart suddenly calmed down, as calm as the vast and empty sea of stars.
Li Hong immediately made a decision.
"Jinyang's affairs, I will handle it properly." Li Hong stretched out his hand and patted Jia Xu,
"In this world, some people not only want to live, but also want to get everything in this world, but I am not ......" Li Hong pointed to the stars in the sky,
"Fourteen years ago, when I returned from the desert to the Great Han, I had nothing, I was already the star in the sky." Jia Xu, Fu Gan and others were dumbfounded.
Tears swirled in Xu Rong's eyes. When he saw Li Hong standing outside the door, when he and Li Hong hugged each other tightly, his tears quietly flowed.
Two people have the same heart, as long as a hug, you can understand each other deeply.
"Come with me." Li Hong pointed to the long street drowning in darkness and said with a smile,
"I want to talk to you about Liaodong." Two tall figures walked slowly in the dark, and the faint laughter made the *night* (**please redact) of early autumn very warm.
"The grain and grass camp is located in Zhuo County, which is 1,800 miles away from Liaodong." Xu Rong sighed in a low voice,
"With Hebei's current financial situation, this battle cannot be fought. If you force your troops, even if you are not defeated, you will get into a quagmire and end up with nothing. And the imperial court will pay a heavy price for this, and the period of counterinsurgency in the south will be far away. Li Hong looked at him and suddenly understood Xu Rong's current situation.
In order to support the eldest princess in implementing the new policy, he offended the royal family and the wealthy of the gate. In order to prevent the imperial court from quelling the rebellion in Liaodong, he offended Xian Yufu and other former colleagues in northern Xinjiang.
If it weren't for the eldest princess protecting him, Xu Rong would probably have been sent to the Weifu prison. Li Hong shook his head and laughed,
"Zilie, you are cautious and don't talk much, why is it unusual...... this time"
"It's a matter of the survival of the community, how can I not say anything?" Xu Rong smiled bitterly,
"It's just that I didn't expect the death of Lord Gongsun to make Lord Xianyu lose his mind, and he couldn't listen to me at all."
"Really?" Li Hong noticed that Xu Rong called Xian Yu Fu Xian Yu Adult, instead of calling him a man
"Brother Yu Xing". Li Hong hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Yu Xing has a conflict with you, is it really for the sake of quelling the rebellion in Liaodong?" Xu Rong's footsteps stopped for a moment, and a helpless sigh came from the darkness.
Li Hong inquired about Gongsun Du's situation, and then listened carefully to Xu Rong's analysis of the Liaodong rebellion.
"Personally, I think that Gongsun Du's rebellion is credible, but I know Gongsun Du's personality very well, and he and Gongsun Zhan, like all the people in Northern Xinjiang, hate the Hu people very much, and his betrayal may be an emergency measure, which is forced and helpless. He may have been forced by the predicament of Liaodong at that time, so he could only take risks in order to temporarily stabilize the Hu tribes attacking Liaodong, preserve his strength to the greatest extent, and protect the border counties of Liaodong. "Kirby Bear's target is the desert, not Liaodong.
The Liaodong rebellion was just a decoy he had carefully designed. His purpose was to lure the army of Northern Xinjiang into Liaodong, so as to create an opportunity for him to dominate the desert.
From this purpose, Kirby Xiong was obviously unwilling to consume too many troops in Liaodong, so Kirby Xiong coerced and lured and dragged the Hu tribes such as Buyeo, Goguryi, Karasuma, and Rulou into the battlefield of Liaodong.
The border county of eastern Liaodong suddenly faced the attack of tens of thousands of Hu people, of course, it could not resist, but whether it was Kirby Xiong, Karasuma people, or Buyeo, they all had a deep-rooted fear of the Han.
Even though the Han Dynasty was now in constant war and greatly reduced in strength, the Han had defeated all the invading and rebellious Hu tribes in the past, including the Buyeo and Goguryi people, all of whom had been defeated by the iron hooves of the Han army, and this instinctive fear made them shrink back when attacking.
In addition, there are many contradictions between the Hu tribes, and all parties want to preserve their strength. In this case, when Gongsun Du proposed peace, Kirby Xiong and other Hu clan leaders were of course willing to accept it.
Kirby Xiong's goal has been achieved, and the other Hu tribes are even more reluctant to take the risk of losing their troops to forcibly attack the Han army because they have gained something.
"Liaodong has been in rebellion for several months, but neither Gongsun Du nor the Hu tribes have crossed Liaoxi to attack the central counties of Youbei Youzhou." Xu Rong looked at Li Hong and said slowly,
"That's enough to prove that my speculation has some truth." Xu Rong's words gave Li Hong an inspiration, a new way to solve the rebellion in Liaodong.
He kept his head down and walked slowly, thinking for a long time. Xu Rong didn't bother him, and quietly accompanied him on the long street.
"Can you give me some advice about Liaodong?" Xu Rong stopped, looked at Li Hong solemnly, and said earnestly: "If the general trusts me, I am willing to rush to the Liaodong battlefield in person to solve the Liaodong crisis." β
"Originally, I was going to let you go." Li Hong said with a smile,
"But now that I've changed my mind, I don't think it's right for you to go."
"Why?" Xu Rong frowned and asked,
"The general thinks ......"
"I'm going to the desert soon." Li Hong said in a low voice,
"It's better for you to sit in Jinyang. This is not only because the eldest princess trusts you, but also because when I am away, only you can support the eldest princess wholeheartedly and help the eldest princess to promote and implement the new policy. If the imperial court wants to go south to conquer the Central Plains as quickly as possible, these two years are very, very critical, and I don't want Jinyang to have any more problems. Xu Rong was stunned for a moment, he could still get the absolute trust of the general at this moment, he was very excited, he wanted to say a word about the death of a confidant, but he opened his mouth and took back the words of gratitude.
There is only one thing I can repay the general, and that is to help the general quickly pacify the world. No matter how grateful you are, it is not as good as helping the general stabilize Hebei and the imperial court.
"General, if the affairs of Liaodong are handled properly, the imperial court can not spend a single soldier." Xu Rong tried his best to calm his excited mood and said softly,
"The general personally rushed to the desert, and he will definitely be able to deter and suppress the Hu tribes, and it is difficult for Kirby Bear's strategy to cause trouble in the desert to work." Since it is difficult for Kirby Xiong's power to extend to the northwest of the desert, his crisis is also coming.
In order to avoid fierce battles with the Han and other Hu tribes in the desert, he could only temporarily give up the delusion of dominating the desert and resubmit to the Han.
Kirby Xiong surrendered, the Karasuma people, Buyeo people, and Goguryi people in Liaodong lost their biggest allies, and they will deal with the powerful Han army alone, at this time we can take various methods to appease, split, divide, and buy, as long as we can make the Hu people in Liaodong give up the rebellion, any method can be used.
As for Gongsun Du, no matter what the reason for his initial rebellion was, it is a fact that he participated in the Liaodong rebellion, so how to deal with Gongsun Du will become the key to this Liaodong rebellion.
If it is handled well, Liaodong will be very stable for a period of time in the future, which will help the imperial court to calm the world.
If it is not handled well, the imperial court may be affected by Liaodong for a period of time in the future, which will seriously affect the imperial court's plan to pacify the world.
Xu Rong bowed slightly and said respectfully: "If the matter of Liaodong wants to be solved perfectly, only the general will go in person. Li Hong smiled, reached out and patted Xu Rong's shoulder,
"If I want to successfully solve the affairs of Liaodong, I need the full support of the eldest princess and the imperial court, but you are the only person in the imperial court who can thoroughly understand the affairs of Liaodong, so this time you must stay in Jinyang." The two immediately discussed the details of quelling the Liaodong rebellion, and at this time Li Hong found that it was far away from Xu Rong's mansion, he grabbed Xu Rong and pointed behind him,
"Zilie, let's go back. Go any further, we're going out of town. β
"After talking about Liaodong, let's talk about Jinyang." The expression on Xu Rong's face gradually dimmed, and he walked silently without speaking for a long time.
"Although the eldest princess's policy of cutting off land and leviing rents on households will help to quickly increase the tax of the imperial court, it is normal for this policy to openly rob the royal family and the wealthy of the gate lords, and it is normal for the court to oppose it." Li Hong saw Xu Rong's sad face, so he spoke first,
"The ministers of the DPRK and China have always been very supportive of the new policy, why are they strongly opposed this time? Are there other reasons? Xu Rong nodded,
"It's complicated. The eldest princess's policy of cutting off the land and renting the shade of the household can be regarded as a "plan to teach the field."
"But the purpose of this policy is not to snatch wealth from the royal family and the wealthy of the gate, but to snatch the population from them."
"Snatching the population?" Li Hong stopped abruptly and looked at Xu Rong in surprise,
"Snatching the population? The eldest princess implemented this strategy to rob the population? β
"Yes, the purpose of this strategy is to let the imperial court, the royal family, and the wealthy men rob the population occupied by them." Xu Rong said affirmatively.
The policy of land determination can find out all the shade households in the three states of Hebei, and then the imperial court will levy the taxes and conscription of the shadow households, but this will not hit the royal family and the rich lords, let alone rob their wealth.
Because after the implementation of this policy, these shady households not only had to pay land rent to their masters, but also had to pay additional taxes to the imperial court.
However, this policy seriously increased the burden on the shakudoes, and pushed them to a dead end, at this time they had only one choice, quickly left their masters, paid taxes to the imperial court, and left themselves a way to live.
Shade households generally rent two types of land. One is
When the court gave them "Ji Dictation Field", one was his master's Hetian. The reason why the shaders are reluctant to leave their masters is because they can get more benefits under the care of their masters.
After the implementation of this policy, the shaded households were forced to choose to return to the imperial court for their livelihood. The loss of the shade has caused the royal family and the wealthy to lose the population they rely on for survival, but they have lost not only their population and wealth, but also their power.
No matter how much land they have, because there is no one to cultivate it, it cannot be turned into food and money, and although it can be rented or sold, the money is greatly reduced.
With less money, they will not be able to expand their power, and the reduction of slaves, disciples, private soldiers, and protΓ©gΓ©s will directly lead to the loss of their arrogant capital.
On the contrary, because of this policy, the imperial court dealt a heavy blow to the power of the wealthy lords, rapidly increasing the population, taxes and servitude, and increasing the land that could be effectively controlled.
Li Hong had a thrilling feeling. When Xun You explained to him, he only talked about the appearance caused by the implementation of this policy, but Xu Rong pointed out the essence of this policy to the point.
The eldest princess has not grown up, but has gradually matured. In order to become a big man as soon as possible, she actually did something that she couldn't do at her age.
She is not an enemy of the entire Jinyang court, but an enemy of the entire Han Dynasty, and the eldest princess is really indomitable, with a momentum like a rainbow.
Li Hong remembered the first emperor. In the past, in order to accumulate wealth, accept bribes, and sell official positions, the first emperor's methods were extremely despicable, but he made a small fuss and did not damage the foundation of the royal family and the wealthy people.
In order to accumulate wealth, today's eldest princess uses the national policy to wantonly plunder openly, and even inflicts heavy damage on the royal family and the wealthy at any cost, and the cruelty of her methods is jaw-dropping.
The first emperor is too far behind his precious daughter. Li Hong secretly sighed. The decision I made under the stars seemed to be the right one.
The first emperor should be relieved in the spirit of heaven, and he should be able to see the hope of the prosperity of the Han Dynasty.
"Who helped the eldest princess formulate this policy? Those Chinese and Korean officials in Shangshutai? β
"When the imperial court was discussing this policy, the eldest princess wrote a letter to me to ask for my opinion, which mentioned the process of producing this policy." Xu Rong said,
"This policy first came from the various problems encountered in the implementation of the 'counting and dictating fields' system and some suggestions put forward by county officials in various places to try to solve these problems. The eldest princess took these questions and suggestions to Jinyang University Hall to convene the doctor and the birthday night to discuss, and it took several months before she came up with such a decision. β
"So, there are also some officials in Shangshutai who are opposed to this policy?" Nodding his head,
"The general should not simply regard the Jinyang crisis as a struggle for power between foreign and Chinese dynasties." The struggle between imperial power and relative power is only the appearance of this Jinyang crisis, and in essence, this Jinyang crisis is purely a huge difference between two different statecraft strategies in formulating and implementing national policies, and then a fierce conflict has arisen.
At present, whether it is a foreign or a Chinese dynasty, there are many officials who oppose this policy. The reason why it seems to be a struggle between imperial power and relative power is actually to cover up the fact that whoever can hold the authority will be able to dominate the statecraft, and the various national policies formulated on the basis of this dominant statecraft can be smoothly promoted and implemented.
Since then, the imperial court has unified the controversy between ancient and modern scriptures, and has integrated the essence of modern and ancient scriptures with the integration of Confucianism and Zheng Xuan
After the "New Classics" became official learning,
"Confucianism and law, solemnity and law" have become the main theme of the statecraft strategy, but
In the formulation of the actual national policy, the "solemn rites and heavy laws" were divided into three factions. One faction is headed by the eldest princess, heavy
The "law" is light
"Li", respected
"Rule of law", the main scripture
"Lawless in the past, not in the present" is determined to reform and implement
"Law",
"Technique",
The statecraft of combining "potential". (Law refers to the sound legal system, power refers to the power of the monarch, to monopolize the military and political power, and art refers to the strategy and means of controlling the ministers, grasping the political power, and implementing the law.)
One faction is headed by Cui Lie, Liu He, and Yang Biao, and is heavy
"Etiquette" is light
"Law", respected
"Virtue is the main punishment and punishment is supplemented", advocating the use of both virtue and punishment, and the implementation of the governance strategy of virtue and punishment complementing each other, and major virtue and small punishment.
One faction is headed by Cai Yong and Xiang Kai. at
At the same time, Huang Lao's technique is also admired. claim
"The combination of civil and military use, morality and punishment", that is, the requirement
"Rule by virtue" is also required
"Benevolent government", the implementation of the rule of quiet and law-abiding, inaction and governance of the country. Three different strategies for governing the country are bound to clash and diverge in the formulation of the same national policy.
For example, in the selection of talents, the eldest princess and others do not pay attention to their backgrounds and pay attention to their talents, while Cui Lie and others not only pay attention to their backgrounds, but also pay more attention to having both ability and political integrity.
For example, in terms of punishment, the eldest princess advocated severe punishment and punishment by punishment, while Cui Lie and others advocated the punishment of the law and the spring and autumn prison.
In other new policies, such as taxation and the land system, there are traces of these two completely different statecraft fighting and compromising with each other, and it is the centrist led by Cai Yong who mediates and persuades peace.
Originally, this kind of contradiction in the strategy of governing the country belongs to the differences in the concept of governing the country by each person, and as long as the two sides can find a balance and seek common ground while reserving differences, this contradiction can still be avoided and hidden.
However, with the beginning of the Jizhou War, the shortage of financial resources in the imperial court, the contradictions between the two sides were completely stimulated.
"If the contradictions between the two sides erupt after the world is pacified, the impact on ZTE's great cause will be controlled within a certain range." Xu Rong shook his head and sighed helplessly,
"Now the outbreak is early, which not only involves the prestige of the imperial power, but also affects the great cause of Zhongxing. If it is not handled properly, the consequences ......" Xu Rong did not continue.
Li Hong finally knew Xun You's difficulties at this time. It's not that Xun You can't say it, but he can't say it, after all, this involves the prestige of the imperial power and the fate of Han Zuo.
If his words aroused Li Hong's anger, it would inevitably lead to the Jinyang crisis getting out of control, and he couldn't afford to take this responsibility.
"Is the conflict between you and Brother Yu Xing (Xian Yufu) born because of this?" Xu Rong smiled bitterly,
"Lord Gongsun Zhan was killed, the Hu people of Liaodong rebelled, and the imperial court immediately had a dispute over foreign strategy. The eldest princess strongly advocated killing, Liu He, Xian Yufu and other adults advocated the use of suppression and appeasement, Lord Cai Yong thought that it was better to persuade and appease under the current situation, and Lord Cui Lie simply advocated giving up, and when the world was calm and the national strength was enhanced, Liaodong would be taken back. β
"The government is really complicated. Different strategies of statecraft lead to different approaches to the same matter, and different approaches to the same thing will lead to different strategies, with the result that the allies in one matter will immediately become dissenting politicians because of another matter. Everyone has a reason, everyone tries to convince the other, everyone wants to control the big picture, everyone wants to achieve the goal better through their own strategy. It is much more difficult to deal with state affairs than to defeat the enemy on the battlefield......" Xu Rong looked at Li Hong,
"You always don't want to stay in Jinyang, but can you escape it? Aren't you back yet? The eldest princess and the ministers of the court are not waiting for your decision? β
"Different statecraft will produce different national policies, and different national policies will lead the Han in different directions." Li Hong sighed,
"Who is in charge is indeed related to the survival of the Han Dynasty. Brother Zilie, do you have any suggestions? Xu Rong stopped, stretched out a fingertip and poked Li Hong's chest,
"The answer is in your heart." Li Hong said goodbye to Xu Rong and hurriedly returned to the General's Mansion. Xian Yufu stood at the door of the General's Mansion, accompanied by Jia Xu, Fu Gan and others, and was anxiously waiting for Li Hong.
Li Hong saw it from afar, flew off the horse, and shook hands with Xian Yufu. After the two exchanged a few words of affectionate greetings, Xian Yufu immediately asked, "What did Lord Xu tell you?" Does he think that Liaodong should not be quelled? Is it to advise you not to send troops? β
"Brother Yu Xing, you and I have been brothers in life and death for many years, can't you still believe me?"
"I'll be relieved when you come back." Xian Yufu smiled faintly,
"Tomorrow I will play Your Majesty and the eldest princess, and I will go to Youzhou. Brother Bo's hatred. Be sure to report. Li Hong nodded,
"Okay, you go to Youzhou as soon as possible and prepare for an expedition to Liaodong. I will go to the desert as soon as possible, and after stabilizing the Hu tribes in the desert, I will go to Youzhou to meet you.
"You're going on an expedition yourself?" Xian Yufu glanced at him in surprise,
"What about Jinyang? Who's here? β
"I want Brother Zilie to sit in Jinyang." Li Hong asked in an inquiring tone,
"Do you think it's okay?" The expression on Xian Yufu's face was complicated, he thought for a moment and shook his head,
"Since you've decided, I won't say anything." After Li Hong and Xian Yufu walked into the study, Xian Yufu immediately closed the door of the study.
"Why did you return to Jinyang overnight?" Xian Yufu asked very angrily,
"Lord Xun didn't tell you about Jinyang?"
"Why did you agree to such a grand ceremony? What do you want? Li Hong also asked unceremoniously,
"Don't you know who I am? If you do this, you are obviously going against the eldest princess and weakening the imperial power, do you know what the consequences are? β
"I know what the consequences are?" Xian Yufu waved his arms angrily,
"In order to rebuild the prestige of the imperial power, the eldest princess unscrupulously seized the authority of the minister. Today she can persuade Xu Rong, Zuo Yan and Tian Yu to forcibly implement the policy of breaking the earth without you, and tomorrow she can persuade others to kill you. In this court, there is no emotion at all, and she is no longer the little princess who loved to cry in the past. If you threaten her imperial power and threaten the safety of Sheji, she will not hesitate to kill you. β
"Brother Yu Xing, can you say this kind of thing?" Li Hong glared at Xian Yufu and said in surprise,
"What the hell happened in Jinyang?"
"To hold a grand ceremony in Jinyang to welcome you, it was Cai Yong, Cui Lie and me, as well as more than a dozen ministers of the DPRK and China. This is an opportunity, you can take advantage of this Jinyang crisis, successfully get the support of the ministers of the DPRK and China, sit in the position of prime minister, and regain all the power, otherwise, Hebei will go to an ending that none of us can predict under the growing power of the eldest princess. Li Hong was extremely shocked.
Xian Yufu was a very good person, he knew very well that if Jinyang's situation was not very critical, he would never make such a move, but he could hear from Xu Rong's tone that Jinyang's situation was far from the point of using such extreme means to solve the problem.
"Brother Yuxing, why are you so excited?"
"Xu Rong, Zuo Yan, and Tian Yu support the eldest princess to implement the policy of breaking the earth this time, what does it mean?" Xian Yufu said hatefully,
"If you can understand, you think they followed your orders to support the eldest princess unconditionally, but I can't understand. Does this count as betrayal? β
"Betrayal?" Li Hong's heart sank.
"I and several ministers in the court are opposed to the eldest princess's policy of cutting off the land and leviing rent on the household. It was not only the royal family and the wealthy who were hit by this strategy, but also the poor shadows. I don't think this new policy is bad, but the timing of the implementation of this new policy is really wrong. β
"What time is it? At this time, it may cause riots and cause chaos in Hebei. The more Xian Yufu spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice gradually became louder,
"If the world is at peace in the future, or if we improve this new policy as much as possible, properly solving the grievances of the royal family, the wealthy of the gate lords, and the worries of millions of shady households, then we can also support this new policy. But what about now? Now the eldest princess is desperate, and even simply abandons us, abandons the court, and directly orders the county to try out a new policy, is this what the eldest princess should do? If this kind of domineering eldest princess is in power, what will be the fate of Hebei? What is the fate of you and me? β
"Xu Rong, Zuo Yan, and Tian Yu obviously know what the consequences of their support for the eldest princess to try a new strategy are, but they still continue to support the eldest princess without telling you, isn't this a betrayal?" Li Hong patted Xian Yufu's arm gratefully, not knowing what to say.
"Brother Yu Xing, it is necessary to maintain the prestige of the imperial power, although the eldest princess's approach is a little out of control, but when the situation is still controllable, you should understand the three of them......"
"People, if it weren't for the Liaodong rebellion, we forcibly forced the eldest princess to recall Xu Rong to Jinyang under the pretext that Gongsun Du participated in the rebellion, and Hedong might have turned the world upside down now." Xian Yufu said angrily,
"I know you trust your brother, but this Jinyang crisis is too terrible and chilling. It's too dangerous for the eldest princess to ignore the overall situation and do whatever she wants. The court must immediately control her, immediately weaken and restrain the imperial power in her hands, and this is something that only you can do. Xu Rong, Zuo Yan, and Tian Yu must be punished for this incident, which is also a warning to the officials of Northern Xinjiang, a stern warning. Li Hong slowly sat down on the desk, his mood extremely heavy.
Xian Yufu's series of excited words, does it represent the strong dissatisfaction of many northern Xinjiang officials with the current status quo of the imperial court?
Xu Rong's words were implying to himself that he had to make a choice at this time. Do you choose to continue to hold on to imperial power, or give up the imperial power, which is already in a sharp decline?
Today's words are not supplemented, which just shows the rapid decline of the status of the Han imperial power in people's minds.
By attacking and weakening the imperial power to win the trust and curry favor with the wealthy of the gate lords, I have lost not only loyalty, but also the possibility of losing Hebei and the opportunity to prosper the Han Dynasty.
The Great Han is not the Great Han of the first emperor alone, not the Great Han of the eldest princess, but the Great Han of all of us.
Back then, I traveled thousands of miles to kill Lu Longsai, just for the big man, for the big man in my heart. I can't go wrong with my choice.
