Everyone’s happiness and sadness are not connected. It would be great if you can empathize, but most of the time it is gloating, or why are you happy?
"The battle situation in Tongguan of Heluo was fierce. The Prime Minister ruled the army and attacked the pass on the fifth day of the first lunar month. The pass was steep and the plateau was high and the city was strong. According to the officials in front of the formation, there were nearly ten new artillery artillery, nearly one hundred crossbows, and more than one hundred stones. The guns and guns and arrows covered the sky and the sun. Although the Prime Minister came to the front line, the soldiers were fighting spirit and were not afraid of the strong enemy. They killed thousands of thieves, but our army was also seriously damaged..."
"The military teacher Bo Ning wrote a letter to transfer 300,000 bows and arrows, 3,000 armor, military pay, food, grass, iron and other debris, and also to transfer 5,000 people from Xuzhou, Qingzhou to assist in transportation..."
In Chongde Hall, Zhong Yao's voice was stable.
Liu Xie listened quietly.
Zhong Yao seemed to face Liu Xie calmly without feeling embarrassed at all, and Liu Xie did not show any anger or any other emotions, as if he still trusted Zhong Yao very much.
Today, it was Zhong Yao's turn to tell Liu Xie some current events, and the biggest current event at the moment is naturally war.
As the king of a country and the lord of the world, Liu Xie has a responsibility to know, understand, and master such major events...
But unfortunately, these matters are often not decided by him. Even if he says some opinions, they may not have any effect. Most of the time, they are like an archive, and only when they enter the final reporting process will they pass the information to him.
『In addition...』 Zhong Yao slowly muttered that there were some matters in other prefectures and counties, but compared with the war in Guanzhong, the matters in those prefectures and counties were too small, so Zhong Yao quickly skipped it.
Liu Xie still did not express any opinions, just nodded or understood.
After a while, Zhong Yao finished reading all the summary of current affairs, looked up at Liu Xie, and his lips moved.
Liu Xie looked at Zhong Yao calmly and smiled.
Like a carved Buddha statue.
Zhong Yao didn't know why, but his heart was a little cold. He was silent for a while and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please relax. The Prime Minister will overcome Guanzhong... By then, the world will be peaceful and the country will be peaceful, and the hearts of the Han people will be greatly boosted. The rejuvenation will be expected. Your Majesty's wise wisdom will also be left in history and will be passed down by future generations..."
Liu Xie narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhong Yao, nodding slightly.
Is Zhong Yao making an excuse for himself?
Liu Xie thought so.
Liu Xie is no longer a young man, or he has lost the qualification to be impulsive. He is not satisfied with Zhong Yao, but he still calls Zhong Yao to accompany him. In his heart, he hates Zhong Yao only for money but not for work, but on the surface he still calls Zhong Aiqing one by one.
Has he grown up?
Perhaps, but more of it, he became what he didn't like the most.
Just like at the moment, Liu Xie was thinking about what would these gentry gentry in Yuzhou or Jizhou say? What would they do after the recruitment and recruitment?
『Actually, I really don't care about these false reputations...』 Liu Xie said slowly, 『If you can exchange fame for peace in the world, I would rather be unknown in this life... Seeing the beginning of spring, I wonder if Zhong Beloved knows that the Duke Mansion has prepared for farming? The foundation of the Han Dynasty is in agriculture and mulberry...』
Liu Xie said, even believing himself, and said with some emotion: "Why are the people in the world? Working hard all year round is just a bag of food and clothing... I have not been able to make the Han people live and work in peace and contentment over the years. It is my fault..."
Zhong Yao quickly kowtowed and bowed, "Your Majesty is wise and can pursue Yao and Shun. If Your Majesty is like this, the Han Dynasty is very lucky, and the people of the world are very lucky!"
Liu Xie did not talk about the situation of the Tongguan War, nor did Cao Cao be on the spot, but just talked about the people and asked about spring farming. Zhong Yao seemed to have forgotten that he had reported the military to Liu Xie just now. He naturally changed his mind and talked about the farming and the countryside, just as he had not mentioned any war before.
Liu Xie sneered in his heart.
He now understood that these guys were all birds of a feather.
Whether it is Fei Qian, Cao Cao, or Zhong Yao in front of him, it is like this...
During Liu Xie's career as an emperor, he went through three very important stages.
One was during the reign of Dong Zhuo. At that time, he had no idea what emperor was or what imperial power was. Of course, Dong Zhuo helped him to the throne because he valued nothing. If he really understood, he would not choose him. Therefore, Dong Zhuo's sleeping in the dragon bed and playing palace maids was nothing to Liu Xie at that time, because he didn't think that the dragon bed and palace maids had any connection with him. During this period, Liu Xie was ignorant, ignorant, and confused.
But even the ignorant and ignorant person can detect the attitudes others have towards him. Children are more sensitive to good intentions and malice, or are more superficial. Those who laugh are good people and those who are angry are bad people.
This ignorant period lasted until Wang Yun took office and Li Guo was in charge of the dynasty.
The process of seizing power by force is of course bloody. This also left Liu Xie's fear of force remaining in his heart, so that he still wanted to escape after Fei Qian mastered Guanzhong.
The second stage is the early stage of moving from Guanzhong to Shandong.
This was the happiest time for Liu Xie.
At the beginning of Liu Xie, the journey was hard, but when he had hope in his heart, the physical fatigue could be tolerated. In addition, most of the officials who moved to Guanzhong with Liu Xie were from Shandong, so of course everyone around Liu Xie said that we are good in Shandong...
In the early days, in order to get the title of emperor, Cao Cao had a good attitude towards Liu Xie. He also built a palace for Liu Xie in Xu County and selected beautiful women. Their meals and clothing were all exquisite. Naturally, the two of them were so good that they were mixed with oil. It was also during this period that Liu Xie slowly realized what imperial power was, and began to have frequent contact with old ministers from Shandong, and began to learn how to be an emperor.
From the beginning of Liu Xie's attempt to grasp the imperial power, he entered the third stage, confronting, colliding, fighting, and defeating the power...
Then I don’t know when it started. When Liu Xie heard the name "Cao Cao", his heart always skipped a beat. However, during this period, Liu Xie began to learn how to pretend, hide his emotions, and how to indirectly attack...
For Liu Xie, Cao Cao, Fei Qian and others are actually not essentially different from Dong Zhuo. Perhaps the methods are slightly different and their attitudes are quite different, but in fact they are all embezzling the imperial power in Liu Xie's hands.
This is a contradiction that can never be reached.
Even the balance that is barely maintained will gradually begin to tilt over time.
After Zhong Yao's investment failed again, Liu Xie learned from his mistakes... Well, although this kind of thinking may not have any effect, at least Liu Xie discovered a little... No matter who these guys are, they are not on Liu Xie's side. In other words, as the emperor often calls a lonely person, they are real "lonely person", not just a humble name.
The emperor's imperial power is unparalleled in the world, so naturally the whole world is enemies.
Zhong Yao, who is honest, sincere, but in fact smart, is not much different from other officials, and knows how to seek profit and avoid harm. This time, the so-called latest front-line information may not be a reverse temptation. He wants Liu Xie to express something or issue some instructions.
Liu Xie noticed Zhong Yao's temptation, so he did not make any military evaluation of Cao Cao, but just talked about agriculture and sericulture and the people of the world. These are clichés, but they are also great things that will never be wrong...
Failed to get the originally intended response from Liu Xie, Zhong Yao left the palace with a expressionless face.
Whether it is the Jizhou man or the Yuzhou man, we actually know that Cao Cao is a separatist prince now, and Dong Zhuo’s copy, but this copy of Cao Cao still pays attention to some rules, at least he is willing to follow the rules. In addition, no one in Shandong can compete with Cao Cao alone, so many people will not go against Cao Cao on the surface.
As long as Cao Cao doesn't go too far...
After all, compared with Fei Qian, Cao Cao was still willing to maintain the original form of Shandong, especially for the upper class of the economy and the ruling class. Although Cao Cao also promoted the poor family, he did not completely turn to the other side. Cao Cao's behavior was naturally regarded as a threat by the original vested interest group of the Han Dynasty as a threat, not a rebellion.
The one who rebels is Fei Qian!
Shandong people hate Fei Qian especially because of this. If they catch Fei Qian's slightest problem, they will curse. Is Shandong people who don't know that these problems are actually nothing, or is it that these Shandong people who don't know that they are cursing them makes no sense?
More often than not, Shandong people only need an emotional catharsis.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Shandong people supported Cao Cao's attack on Fei Qian...
Of course, if one day Fei Qian announced the abolition of Xintianzheng and all returned to the old system, these Shandong gentry and gentry would immediately change the direction and throw all the words insulting Fei Qian out of the sky, and immediately began to advocate how wise and great Fei Qian was, how compassionate and kind, how wise and kind...
These Shandong people have mouths on their butts, and they are never responsible for what they say, let alone apologize for what they say and admit their mistakes.
To put it bluntly, whether to support Cao Cao or not is all due to interests.
The problem now is that Shandong people have begun to feel that they have lost some money, whether it is Jizhou or Yuzhou.
