Chapter 859: Unconcealable Resentment
I'm sorry, but the chapter name of the previous chapter was wrong, but the content is correct.
………………
Whenever something comes to a critical juncture, the more calm some people's minds are, the same is true of the Conglong faction who are close to the king, not to mention some people who are relatively unfamiliar with the king.
The nations were annexed one after another, and some people who originally belonged to the courtiers of the countries were looking for their own positions after their identities changed, and in the face of the imminent adjustment and change of official positions in the empire, and the specific treatment of the central government for the inner and outer seals, large and small gatherings became frequent.
"Liu Bang found some people, all of whom were local snakes with family assets, but none of them were found with a noble status." Chen Yu "tsk" a few times, as if expressing disdain or contempt: "The mind of wanting to be the leader is clear at a glance, and the mind is too narrow-minded." ”
Chen Yu actually has no qualifications to despise Liu Bang, Liu Bang is a baron nobleman, and he is not even a lord. It was precisely because Chen Yu didn't even get mixed with the lord that he was unhappy with Liu Bang, who surrendered in battle and acted as a "leading party".
"We persuaded the king to accept the peaceful annexation, why didn't we get the knighthood!" Zhang Er said a little sullenly: "Do you remember that Chen Sheng?" He's also a baron of the third class! ”
Zang Di, who was sitting on the side, listened to Chen Yu and Zhang Er's various unhappiness, and his expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
Warring States celebrities, the most arrogant group of people, they feel that they have fame, prestige and ability, in fact, fame and popularity are true, but ability is not necessarily. The people who can be called celebrities, they are all the guests of the princes, they have been praised and treated well, and they can't see some originally unknown guys climbing on their heads.
Who is Chen Sheng? It was a low-level officer of the Qin Army who was promoted to the position of commander of the Qin Army due to merit during the conscription...... Maybe not even an officer, after all, it is conscription. Later, he was destined to be punished for being late for servitude, and he rose up to become a bandit in the Tiger Roaring Mountains and Forests.
Fate will be. It should also be that Chen Sheng has some ability, he gained a firm foothold in Hengshan County, gathered hundreds of thousands of people, and finally saw the situation and led the crowd to join Lu Zhe, and ended up with a seemingly good ending.
Liu Bang was originally a member of the group that followed Chen Sheng to gather in the Xiaoshan Forest, but was later recruited by Qi Guo to abandon Chen Sheng.
Liu Bang became the prime minister of Peiguo, one of the feudal states of Qi, to be honest, this kind of betrayal and abandonment is contemptible, and if the matter ends here, it is only despised. Later, he secretly surrendered when the Qi army resisted the Han army, not only did the Han army easily capture the Jiancheng Pengcheng, but some of his minions also made a lot of effort when the Han army attacked Surabaya County and Donghai County. Turning away from the benefactor and betraying the benefactor. No one would treat such a person, especially in the era of temperance, and they were completely despised.
Chen Yu and Zhang Er's words caused some people to be unhappy.
Of course, those people didn't put their anger and grievances on Chen Yu and Zhang Er, such as Tian Du and Tian Rong who were present remembered some of Liu Bang's betrayal and were angry, and Zang Di and Han Guang also remembered that Chen Sheng stabbed him in the back and were extremely unhappy.
"Chen Sheng is also on the outer seal?" Han Guang didn't show his inner level in his demeanor, his tone and calm movements were also in line with the elegance of celebrities, he gently pulled his wrinkled sleeves, picked up the tea cup on the table, and blew. Said slowly: "It's just some drafts that make some people impatient, and sure enough, it's still them." ”
Uttering sarcastic words with a calm and gentle pace is the kind of thing that celebrities love to do. Han Guang's posture finally reminded Chen Yu and Zhang Er of how they were also celebrities, and a group of people became elegant on the surface no matter what they were doing.
The center's plan for the inner and outer seals is indeed still in the draft stage. In particular, many treatments for foreign seals have been in the tangled stage, and I heard that only the treatment of the king level has been determined, and the treatment below the king level is still being discussed.
The number of people involved in the discussion of the outer seal is not very large, and it is currently limited to the heads of various important departments. That is, Lu Zhe, Xiao He, and Kuaitong, who recruited many generals to return, and also gathered some celebrities to a limited extent. Lu Zhe obviously wants to hold a court meeting to discuss?
According to hearsay, Zang Di was fortunate to be one of the people who were qualified to participate in the discussion, and the rest of the people such as Chen Yu, Han Guang, Tian Rong and others who thought they were celebrities were not invited, which is why so many people seemed angry.
In fact, in the list planned by Lu Zhe, only those with aristocratic status are eligible to participate in the discussion, and non-nobles want to join in the fun, depending on whether the department is important.
Everyone chatted and chatted, as if a group of people who didn't know how to lower their voices and make loud noises poured into the restaurant, and there was a noise in their ears.
"We'll see." Chen Yu, who was in a very bad mood, glanced at the entourage standing next to him.
At that moment, one of the attendants answered, "Yui! Then he gently opened the wooden chute paper door and walked out.
The style of the door conforms to the habits handed down from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and it is a structure that is stuck in a fixed frame, that is, the kind of door that pushes horizontally from side to side, and the style of non-pull opening.
In fact, not only does the door retain the habit of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but now people have not changed much in the interior decoration, the ground is basically paved with wooden floors, plus a layer of straw mats (tatami mats), and if you are particular about it, you will add a layer of blankets to the straw mats.
Speaking of blankets, among the gifts offered by Parthia and Bactria were many blankets, which were made of wool or other animal skins, and seemed to be nicknamed "Persian blankets", which were of very good quality and very valuable. Some of the blankets presented by the two countries were retained by Lu Zhe, and most of them were rewarded to his ministers, such as Chen Yu, Zhang Er, and Han Guang, who each received a Persian blanket.
Lu Zhe has always been generous to his courtiers, and he is more materially generous to those celebrities who have great fame but have no knighthood, let alone arrange real power departments. In some ways, Lu Zhe was to appease the restless hearts of celebrities, and he did not give power, and naturally tried to satisfy himself in terms of materials.
The entourage who went out to check soon returned, and he said, "Baron Liu, the patriarch of the Yong clan, the patriarch of the Shu clan, the Kaiming clan and some other people have also come to this restaurant. The little one asked the shopkeeper and said that they had chartered a banquet on the fourth floor. ”
"Enlightened?" Lu Chen, who had been silent, spoke for the first time: "Is it the enlightened clan over there in Ouluo?" ”
The attendant saluted respectfully and replied, "Yes, the patriarch of the Kaiming clan did not come in person, it was Kaiming Sen. ”
Isn't the Kaiming clan the royal family of the Ouyu Kingdom, and Kaimingsen is the prisoner that Lu Zhenan captured when he attacked Qianzhong County. At that time, they were also captured by the Han army, along with Ouyue's translation Song and Minyue's Fu Wuzhu.
Yi Hu Song and Wu Zhu were both under house arrest before. It wasn't long ago that he was allowed to go free. Because the two had a good attitude towards cooperation, out of some considerations, Yihu Song was assigned a deacon position on the side of the Hongru Pavilion, and Wu Zhu was sent to South Asia to become an officer.
The Ouluo Kingdom was attacked by the Han army under the capital city five years ago, and the Han army entangled with it for two years...... That is, three years ago, the official year was in the third year of the Han calendar (214 BC), the Kaiming Pan Kaicheng surrendered, and the Ou Yu Kingdom was declared dead.
Because the soldiers came to the city and paid the price, the surrender of Kaimingpan was not very popular with the Han army, and the Han army not only carried out the "one out of ten" beheading from the army of Ouluo. After entering the city, a group of people were also killed by drawing lots, and some of the civil and military ministers of the Ou Kingdom were also killed, and only the Kaiming clan was escorted to Nanling because of the relationship between the royal family.
A few years have passed, the Ouluo Kingdom no longer exists, and the Kaiming clan has not been slaughtered by the Ju clan, but the treatment is definitely not much better, and it can even be said that it is worse. Now except for those who have experienced it personally, there are not many people who can remember that there is not much sincerity in a country like Ou Yu Country, and Lu Chen's tone was a little strange when he asked about the Kaiming Clan. Naturally, there are reasons for this.
"How could Liu Bang pull up the Kaiming Clan?" Song Yi also spoke for the first time: "So, Liu Bang's eyes are staring at the South Asian subcontinent?" ”
Celebrities, stupid people can't be celebrities, Song Yi said. Pretty much all understand what it's for. No matter how down-and-out the Kaiming clan is, it is also the head snake on the other side of South Asia, but the identity of the Kaiming clan is a little special, which causes everyone present to criticize Liu Bang in their hearts for being a little hungry.
"Wei Bao......" The entourage did not finish speaking: "Wei Bao is also on Liu Bang's invitation list. ”
The words of the entourage have the meaning of a little stone to startle a thousand waves, and anyone who listens to it is a little stunned. Then he looked at the people who were nearby.
Wei Bao is the sibling brother of Wei Qi, the king of Wei, and it is no secret that Wei Qi chose the South Asian subcontinent as a fief, and the empire is counting the number of soldiers in the Wei feudal state to form an army. Subjects who accompanied them to the subcontinent were also recorded. Wei Qi has disregarded his identity in recent years, and the most frequent places to run are the ruling government and the Taiwei Bureau, he went to the ruling government to distribute the corresponding materials, and he went to the Taiwei Office to get a battle plan for attacking the South Asian subcontinent.
"Is it really good for Wei Bao and Liu Bang to mix together?" Maybe everyone present has such a question in their hearts.
Tian Rong subconsciously looked at Tian Du, Tian's position in the empire was actually in a relatively embarrassing situation, especially recently with the news that the Hu people were about to gather and go south was repeatedly confirmed, the embarrassment faced by Tian was even worse.
Why did the Hu people go south? That's naturally because Touman took the lead in the southward invasion.
Why did Touman go south? Many people will say that it was because of the invitation of the Tian clan that Touman gathered the invasion of the Hu people.
In the early stage, it was the Han army that pressed the Hu people and beat them hard, and the criticism of the Tian family was there but not too intense. As Meng Tian led the army to defeat the head man and lead the people to surrender, the criticism of the Tian clan gradually turned into a discussion, but when the news of the large number of Hu people going south came, the Tian clan was once again pushed to the cusp of the storm. That's still Lu Zhe didn't say anything, so the Tian family didn't encounter more and bigger troubles, otherwise Tian Du and Tian Rong probably wouldn't be sitting here.
Many people think that Lu Zhe didn't speak out because Tian had a daughter who was blowing the pillow wind in the harem, and people with this kind of speculation were destined to have a low status, and the source must be closed, they were all kinds of brain supplements plus all kinds of cheers and vinegar to tell their own stories. People who really know the inside story will not say anything, and they can't tell the world that Lu Zhe thinks that the more Hu people who invade the south, the better, the more they come, the more they will eliminate on the border line, and the greater the advantage of the Han army marching into the grassland in the future.
In fact, at this stage, the more Hu people who went south, the better, and the Hu people who went south would fight with the Han army in the familiar mountains and rivers of China, which was a more beneficial thing for the Han army.
"We ...... At worst, you'll get a Lord, right? ”
The type of people who look down on him can operate a large piece of his territory because he is a nobleman, but the people who used to be infinitely beautiful are running around because they want to obtain the title of nobility. In fact, without merit, even if it is a favor to give money, it is destined to be a "tabula rasa identity", and there is nothing more uncomfortable than this in the contemporary era when aristocratic status may become more and more important.
For a moment, all eyes converged on Zang Di.
Zang Di is a fifth-class viscount, and he did not defect to Lu Zhe in a good situation, but when there was no way to survive and no way to retreat, the whole army had to surrender without food.
After he surrendered, he first persuaded Tian Rong to lead the army to surrender without a fight, and then played a role as a bridge in the Han army's march into Yandi, which can be said to have persuaded a large group of people with a three-inch tongue, so that the Han army could easily gain control of Yandi.
If it is said that Zang Tu won the title because he persuaded a large group of people, it is absolutely unreasonable to say that he won the title of fifth-class viscount, because Lu Zhe knew that the Yan army had a great merit in marching into the (Korean) Peninsula.
It can be said that the development of the Yan Kingdom to the peninsula was due to Zang Di's insistence, and Lu Zhe's most important thing was to open up outward, and only four-tenths of Zang Di's fifth-class viscount exploits were based on persuading some people to surrender, and six-tenths were based on bloody conquests against foreign races.
"Gentlemen...... Perhaps it should be tough on the outside, and it should be targeted and tough. That's all Zang can remind.
In an instant, the eyes of a few people lit up, although none of them had obtained a knighthood, and their status and official positions were not high, but according to Zang Di, they were basically people with official conveniences. Some of them are in the Hongru Pavilion, some are in the navy, and some of them have some contact with the foreign affairs of the empire, so it is obvious that they don't know what to do if they are stupid.
"In fact, I think that the center of gravity of the future empire will be tilted towards the navy." Zang Di was also pondering: "The navy was named the navy by the king. The so-called navy is naturally a conquest in the sea, the sea is vast and boundless, and no one knows what will happen to the ship in front of it, it may be an island, it may be a desolate continent, or it may encounter strange alien races. Speaking of this, he took a deep breath: "Tu has already made up his mind that he must serve in the navy. ”
In these years, being unfamiliar with the sea is the mainstream, and having knowledge of the sea is rare, Zang Tu will have this idea from observing Lu Zhe's mentality from many aspects, and it is also a conclusion drawn from the tilt of some materials.
"So, will the future empire's development on land really slow down?"
"Hehe, who's going to know."
"yes...... It depends on what the king thinks. (To be continued......)
