When Zhang Yan's carriage arrived at Suiyang City, Zhang Yan was shocked. The city gates here were open, and several soldiers leaned against each other and chatted. The pedestrians entering and leaving were carrying the pass in their hands, and they didn't check them much.
Ziru, until Zhang Yan's carriage arrived, the soldiers pretended to start checking.
Liang State has always been affected by geographical location. After King Hui of Wei moved the capital of Daliang from Anyi, Wei State was also called Liang State. Today, Liang State, which is part of Wei State, occupied the best arable land and was in the
The confidant of the Central Plains, a must-pass place for trade, has the only disadvantage of being attacked on all sides, the terrain is too flat, and there is no defense... This was a huge disadvantage in the Warring States Period, but now, this is not a problem at all.
After all, if we are in peace today, there are no enemies around Liang State. No matter from which direction, whenever foreign enemies kill Liang State, the Han Dynasty will almost be over. Therefore, Liang State has no need to defend, let alone Liang State
On one side is the river (Yellow River) and on the other side is the temple. Just set up defenses. The meaning of the existence of the Liang Kingdom is to be the gateway to the temple and stare at the princes outside the pass.
But now it is not necessarily true that any prince dares to raise an army and cause chaos, so the Liang State naturally does not have to be nervous, just lie down and rest assured.
With a sufficient population, cultivated land, no war, and the King of Liang is a person who doesn’t like to make trouble, it’s difficult for the Liang Kingdom to not be rich. Today, King of Liang prefers to accompany his concubine and accompany him than to govern the country.
What kind of education do you want to encourage cultivation, encourage trade, do nothing.
This is why the Liang State is a paradise for officials. If you work here, you will take leave, and you will take paid leave.
The King of Liang has not held a court meeting for four months. The court meeting was held four months ago because the temple issued an order to pardon the ministers.
King Liang had no ambitions and did nothing, and the ministers became even more lazy under the influence of the former prime minister Zhang Cang. The political and social relaxation atmosphere of the entire Liang Kingdom reached an unprecedented level, and the people loved it.
Do whatever you do, and there is no prescribed time in the market. You can open the restaurants and restaurants whenever you want, and close the time when you want. Sometimes even curfews are exempted.
When Zhang Yan first saw the situation in the city, he was completely stunned.
The person who came to greet him was the new prime minister of Liang State, called Guo Ting. For some reason, Guo Ting had no airs as a prime minister at all, and even got off the car first to meet Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan also hurriedly got out of the car and met with each other.
"What kind of virtue do I have? How dare I let Xiang Guo come to greet me in person?"
"Hahaha, Zhang Jun came from afar, how could he not welcome him?"
Guo Ting and Zhang Yan took the same car and walked towards his mansion. On the road, Zhang Yan looked at the surrounding situation curiously. This place is really different from Chang'an, the people of Chang'an.
When walking, he always walks quickly, and he looks hurriedly. The officials are stern and pass by, but in Liang State... He just saw two officials smiling and passing by casually.
When I arrived at the Prime Minister's car, I just paid a visit, without any fear at all.
Anyone who has Zhang Shizhi and Zhidu can set a record for performance.
Guo Ting took Zhang Yan's hand and said seriously: "Before you came, the Empress Dowager had already explained... How close you can be to me in the future."
"I am also Shanfu... I was once a general of Zhou Lu Lingwuhou..."
When Zhang Yan heard this, he immediately understood that this was his own family.
"Then I'll bother you..."
"Hahaha, there's no need to be polite!"
"I will take you to pay homage to the king first!"
In the palace of Liang, the King of Liang and the Queen came to greet the relative. Liu Hui was very happy and hugged the shoulders of the Youzi and did not let go. Zhang Yan was still a little restrained, but he also politely paid homage to his uncle and aunt.
...And Queen Lu became even more kind to him. After all, she was Queen Lu’s favorite grandson. In terms of blood relationship, Liu Ying, Liu Le and the Lü family are the family.
"Come on, Yan... This is something I specially prepared for you... I didn't eat well on the way, don't be restrained!"
Liu Hui said happily, calling Youzi to have dinner.
Immediately, he asked Guo Ting to call the other ministers and let them meet the new Fengchang of Liang State.
Soon, the ministers of Liang State arrived one after another, and Liu Hui asked about the situation in Chang'an.
Zhang Yan answered one by one.
"Sir...What about your majesty? Didn't you get beaten again?"
"Ah... His Majesty is very good..."
"Hahaha, when His Majesty was young, I was responsible for applying medicine! At that time, he always made his father and mother angry... You young people don't know!"
"Forehead..."
Zhang Yan actually knew it, but he still nodded obediently and did not refute his uncle.
"His he sent you here, didn't he give anything?"
"I ordered...just..."
Seeing Zhang Yan's timid appearance, Liu Hui said seriously: "You want to be the Jiuqing, don't look like this anymore!"
Zhang Yan plucked up the courage and said, "Before Your Majesty sent me, he specially ordered the Liang State to neglect its policies and become lazy. I want me to supervise the officials and govern the Liang State well!"
Zhang Yan thought that if he said this, his ministers would definitely share the same hatred against him, but he was afraid that his uncle would not be happy.
But after he finished speaking, none of the ministers here cared about it and looked at him with a smile.
Liu Hui also nodded, "He is right, then you have to manage it well!"
Zhang Yan was very confused. He didn't ask why until the banquet ended and he left Guo Xiang.
"Ah... Over the years, Your Majesty has sent a lot of people, all of whom say they are here to govern the Liang State, but after staying for a while, they all become a virtue... So, I was ordered at the beginning.
Those who came to govern Liang State...ah... almost all the ministers...but what's the use? What else can Liang State do?"
Guo Ting shook his head and recalled his bold words when he came to Liang Kingdom. It was his lost youth.
"Then how many years have you been to Liang State?"
"Four months."
...........
"Master... are you a little too much?"
Liu Chang looked at Zhang Cang in front of him quietly.
"Zhang Buyi said that you should complete the establishment of a card within three months. You just need to complete it when the three-month period is just over. "
"What are you doing during these days?"
"I am busy with the Imperial Academy."
Zhang Cang served as a court official in the temple, responsible for etiquette, education, Lingxian administration, etc. He is the head of the nine ministers, but the head of the nine ministers is really unreliable... It is obvious that there are ministers who are unable to catch up with them.
But he always refuses to take out all his talents and hide them. Unless Liu Chang takes the initiative to order, he will not report it once a year.
Liu Chang felt very tired.
At present, the person who is most capable of becoming a prime minister in the Han Dynasty is the teacher in front of him, but he is also the lazy one among the ministers.
Originally, Fengchang had great power, and in court discussions it was similar to the host, but Zhang Cang made Fengchang the most invisible official position in the Han Dynasty, and even Liu Chang wanted to be able to do so.
Roar: You are the host!!
However, as Liu Chang's master, Zhang Cang Tiansheng had a layer of protective film than other ministers.
Although Liu Chang would not care about this when he was on the top, he would still do it, but Zhang Cang knew the right way. He would not do anything that would anger Liu Chang and make him go. After being with Liu Chang for so many years, Zhang Cang
It's so enjoyable to live.
"Master... After Chen Ping fell ill, this memorial always made me very upset..."
"Your Majesty has given me instructions, how dare I not obey... However, I am preparing to expand the Imperial Academy and make many changes to the Imperial Academy... Please take a look at this memorial."
Liu Chang shook his head, "I won't look!"
"Why?"
"Every time I want you to deal with the memorial, you will take out a memorial and make a suggestion, and then I will be deceived by you and ask you to complete this and then review the memorial. How many times have this been the case?
Le...How many ideas do you have? Why don't you take them out all at once?"
"Anyway, I won't be fooled again!"
Zhang Cang sighed long, deliberately waved the memorial in his hand, and sighed: "What a pity, this was originally a thought that could change the Imperial Academy and bring countless talents to the Han Dynasty... Your Majesty doesn't want to see it, that minister
I had to tear it apart..."
Zhang Cang's voice was full of temptation, but Liu Chang couldn't help it in the end and snatched the memorial.
Zhang Cang decided to make a series of changes to the Taixue School. The current talent selection mechanism is recommended by local students and national studies. However, Zhang Cang believes that Taixue students can be divided into two types, one is passed the assessment and the other is recommended.
.The difference between these two people is that the group that passed the assessment is biased towards government affairs and can be used directly when there is a lack of officials as the reserve of officials in the temple, while the second type of people develops towards academics.
, that is, to treat the classics and so on.
In addition to selecting talents, there are also a series of correction policies for courses and teachers. He suggested that different subjects be divided into different subjects and that different students are divided into different places. There is no need to be proficient in them all, just proficient in part. Zhang Cang even wanted to take the Taixue School.
It became the largest cultural exchange base for the Han Dynasty. Just like the Jixia Academy, anyone could express their opinions and talk freely in the Imperial Academy. He even imagined building a Imperial Academy city...
Liu Chang was silent for a long time and said, "Okay, I'll wait until you finish this matter, and then I'll be responsible for the memorial!"
"only!"
Zhang Cang looked very obedient, but Liu Chang knew in his heart that this was a cycle. The old man in front of him could come up with a lot of useful and manageable things at any time. This is what made Liu Chang angry. Why don’t you all do it?
Take it out?
He sent Zhang Cang away helplessly, but Liu Chang began to have a headache about the memorial.
It’s all Chen Ping’s fault!
I have to get sick at this time, so I can't find a candidate to replace him.
Could it be...can you only go to find him?
Liu Chang raised his head and gently stroked his chin, but he had a perfect candidate in his heart.
.........
The carriage stopped slowly. Surrounded by the soldiers, Liu Chang got out of the car. He looked at Zhang Meng on the side with displeasure, "Can we not bring so many soldiers next time we go? Could it be that
Do I still need them to protect me? When I was in the Tang Dynasty, so many people could have taken them out and walked around the Huns' hinterland!"
Zhang Meng was very serious, "Although Your Majesty is brave, he cannot be careless... Qingji at the beginning..."
"Okay, okay, I don't know how many times I have heard about Li Tu Qingji..."
Liu Chang interrupted him rudely. If it weren't for the position of this guy, Liu Chang would have sent him to Hexi or Dian Kingdom long ago. This guy was stubborn and didn't know how to adapt, so he had met such a wise man as himself.
The king, otherwise he would be chopped off sooner or later!
Liu Chang put on his clothes and asked his subordinates to prepare many gifts.
That's why people are going up and knock on the door.
Soon, a slave came out and saw the attitude outside, so he was not panicked at all and possessed himself.
Liu Chang walked up with a smile, "Brother-in-law, please report to Mr. Liu and say I'm here!"
The old man replied with a wry smile: "Your Majesty...Liu Hou left Chang'an the day before yesterday and returned to Liudi..."
"What?!"
Liu Chang jumped up suddenly and shouted, "Why would he dare to go back without my orders?"
"Liuhou came to Chang'an just to see a doctor, and he never held a position...Liudi is his fief..."
The old man hurriedly explained, but Liu Chang couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "Is this what Liu Hou asked you to tell me? What else did he say?"
"Liuhou also said... He is weak and sick, and has not had much time. This time he went to Liudi, he would take people to find his teacher, and follow his teacher to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests to cultivate his character... He also said that he had already
I have been relieved of the temple for a long time and cannot do it myself. I hope Your Majesty will understand..."
Liu Chang had a stern face and looked very bad.
Lu Lu hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty! Liu Hou was in a car. If he had left the day before yesterday, he would have not gone far... Do I want me to take the cavalry to chase him? I can still chase him back!"
"You go now... take people to chase you now!!! No! I'll go in person!!!"
A carriage was driving slowly, Liu Hou was sitting in the carriage, closing his eyes to rest.
As early as Chen Ping was cultivating, he had already seen something was wrong, so he decided to leave Chang'an as soon as possible... Besides, he did not deceive Chang Liu, but his body could not bear it anymore, just here
At that time, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came not far away. Zhang Liang was stunned and then smiled bitterly.
It seems that I have underestimated His Majesty’s determination to keep him, Liu Hou, Liu Hou... I can’t leave now.
Zhang Liang asked the driver to stop the car. Not long after, a group of elite knights appeared in front of him. The leader was riding a white horse, tall and big, and it was Liu Chang.
Liu Hou was a little surprised. He didn't expect that His Majesty would come in person.
Liu Chang got off the horse angrily, pulled the reins, and quickly walked to Zhang Liang's car, his eyes full of displeasure.
"Father Zhong is leaving... Why don't you tell me?"
"this...."
"Come!"
Liu Chang waved his hand, and immediately someone came over with something in his arms. Liu Chang pointed at these people and said, "I know that Liu Hou is in poor health. These are some medicines collected in the palace... Also, these are
Clothes, the mountains are cold and cold, you can wear them at that time... These are books, all of which are broken copies without names. I have copied a few copies, and you can read them when you are idle...
There are two powerful crossbows there, so you can let your followers take them. If you encounter a beast, it can come in handy..."
A hint of surprise flashed across Zhang Liang's face, and his eyes softened immediately.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite....Father Zhong, you are unwilling to do things for me. I am not angry. But you leave without saying a word. I am very dissatisfied..."
"It's my fault."
"Hahaha, I came here to give these things...Okay, Father Zhong, then you take good care of yourself. Sometimes, you can write to me at any time..."
Zhang Liang was silent for a moment, then waved to Chang Liu to come forward.
Liu Chang walked to Zhang Liang in confusion.
But Zhang Liang said a few words in his ear.
Lu Lu didn't know what Zhang Liang said, but after Zhang Liang finished speaking, his own king laughed loudly, looking very happy.
Liu Hou left, but Chang Liu led the horse and stood on the hillside, watching the carriage gradually moving away.
"Oh... I hate that I was twenty years late and I couldn't stay at Hou to serve."
"You said that my father is such a tyrant king, how could he get the help of so many gods? Xiao Xiang, Liu Hou, Master, Chen Ping, Cao Shen, uncle...ah...it's hateful."
Listening to Your Majesty's rebellious words, Lu Lu did not dare to meet them.
"Your Majesty also has many talented people to help you..."
"I??Do you mean Xiahou Zhao? or Zhou Shengzhi? Fan Kang? or you?? Do you have anything in common except your surname is the same as them?"
"Of course there are...we all followed the foolish lord..."
"What did you say?"
"I say your Majesty is wise!!!"
......
The first stop after Liu Chang returned to Chang'an was to Fengchang Mansion.
When he walked into this place with a smile, Zhang Cang just felt something was wrong.
But he is not afraid. He has some ways to continue to rely on this department today. How great is it here? It is said to manage many affairs, but most of these affairs overlap with other departments. He doesn't have to do anything, so he puts things under his post.
If he throws his head, he can rest with peace of mind. He goes to the Shaofu as the Shaofu Order and deals with the memorial every day. Isn’t this a life-threatening person?
"Why is Your Majesty here? It's just right. I have some clues about the things I handle in the Imperial Academy. You can report them..."
Zhang Cang smiled, looking confident.
Liu Chang could hardly hide the smile on his face. He held Zhang Cang's hand and entered the inner room. The two of them sat down together.
"Master... I know that you are very busy all these days and are busy doing so many things every day. I have thought about it. You can't let you be so busy. I have to arrange some capable subordinates for you.
Come and help you do these things.”
"oh?"
"Your Fengchang is responsible for culture and education. It just so happens that Tongwen Mansion will be under your command in the future. Let Zhidu be your right hand... By the way, Chao Cuo is coming back from Nanyue, and I heard that he has arrived.
Liang Guo, when he comes, let him serve as Fengchangcheng for you. If you want to handle anything in the future, you can let them do it..."
Zhang Cang's eyes turned dark and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty! In fact, I can do these things alone!!"
"That's not possible. You are my teacher. No one can suffer you... You must let them come to Fengchang Mansion to assist you. These two people, you also know what kind of virtue it is, you are responsible.
Those who educate, you should educate them more, and you can’t let them fight first. Of course, if they are rude to you, you can come to me at any time..."
"Oh, by the way, Chang'an will definitely be gathered by various schools in the future. At that time, your argument will have to be served. If it is taken by the Tingwei, you can solve it if you send Zhidu to... This is all for
You think about it.”
Zhang Cang's face suddenly became very serious.
"Your Majesty, I think that this common thing can be delayed, but the memorial can't be delayed anymore... I am willing to serve as the Young Mansion, so I will go to the Young Mansion to solve your problems!!
!”
"Hey, teacher, what do you mean? No hurry, I have decided to let Lu Chen serve as the Shaofu Order, just continue to serve as Fengchang."
"No, Your Majesty, Lu Chen is a man of old-fashioned and serious. I am afraid that he cannot handle the memorial well. Why not let him serve as flattery? I will serve as the young mansion order..."
Zhang Cang's attitude was very firm.
Liu Chang grinned.
Master, Master, who do you think is the person you are on the lane?!
The more Zhang Cang thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He raised his head and looked at Liu Chang in front of him seriously, but it seemed as if he saw a huge smiling figure behind him, feather fan and Lun Scarf.
