Chapter 426 Can I still be called King Qin without exiling a prince?
Spring is full of joy and everything is revived.
The people started the new year's farming work, plowing the soil and sowing seeds.
On the outskirts of Chuansikong County, a group of farmers were working hard. A young man rolled up his clothes and walked barefoot on the land, holding a plow in his hand. An old cow walked calmly in front of him, far away.
There were several busy people everywhere, all of whom were his family members. It was noon and the scorching sun was high in the sky. The family had just gathered in the shade of the tree, eating cakes and drinking gulps of water.
At this moment, a group of pedestrians came from the road.
They were all riding horses, which immediately attracted the attention of these farmers.
The young man was okay, he just stretched out his neck to look, but the old man stood up alertly, holding the farm tools in his hands. As an old Qin man, decades of training and discipline were almost integrated into his bones, and he almost saw strangers.
At that moment, I got up.
After all, according to the laws of the Qin State, if you see a stranger, you must report the person's situation to the local pavilion chief. If you do not report it in time, the stranger has committed another crime, then everyone you see along the way will
Anyone who passes him will be forced to sit down.
This makes the old Qin people extremely resistant to unfamiliar faces.
However, when he saw the group of people wearing bright clothes and angry horses, with soldiers following them, the old man immediately lowered his head.
The fear of high titles is also ingrained in their bones.
The leader was riding a white horse and was extremely tall. Anyone who looked at him would praise him as a strong man.
The strong man also noticed the farmers on the side of the road, stretched out his hands, and everyone following him stopped. The strong man got off his horse, handed the rope to the young man beside him, and then pulled a child towards the direction of the cultivated land.
Walked over.
The farmers quickly got up to pay their respects.
The old man stepped forward and asked with a strong Qin accent: "What are your instructions?"
The strong man grinned and motioned for everyone to sit down.
"You are all from Chuansikong County? Where are you from Chuansikong County?"
"Exactly... We are farmers in Zhengyangli. We can reach it just one mile away from this road..."
The old man said, and hurriedly took out his own test tube, and handed it to the strong man to look at. The strong man took it, looked at it carefully, and then handed it to him.
"Is this cow your own?"
"Not so."
"It's borrowed from inside, and it proves that I also have it here..."
Seeing the old man's uneasy look, Liu Chang waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid, old man. I am Fan Kang, Marquis of Wuyang, and this is my son Fan An!"
The farmers around him were even more respectful when they heard this sentence. They may not know who Wuyang Hou is, but they know that the person in front of them is a Hou. This is enough. The old man still has some knowledge. After learning that this person is in front of him,
After revealing his identity, his face even glowed with joy.
"I was fortunate enough to follow your father in battle and serve as a charioteer in the army... You are as majestic and majestic as a general!"
"Hahaha, although I am majestic, I am far inferior to today's Holy Emperor. Today's Holy Emperor is majestic. He is a tiger and a leopard in life and death. He has the unstoppable courage of ten thousand men. No one in the world can beat him. It's me who dances...
Father is no match for him!"
Listening to "Fan Kang" boasting, "Fan An" on the side just rolled his eyes.
This Fan Kang is, of course, Liu Chang.
Liu Chang gained the trust of these people with his words, not because these people are easy to deceive, but because Liu Chang has proof of identity. At the same time, probably no one dares to pretend to be Wuyang Marquis in the Sili area, unless his status is higher than Wuyang
Hou is even taller....
The old man also smiled and complimented, "I have long heard that the Holy Emperor is a mighty warrior, but Wuyang Marquis was the first to fight and killed the most personally. I am afraid that the Holy Emperor is not as good as him."
This is to be the first to climb the city wall when attacking the city. According to the laws of the Qin State, if you can be the first to climb the city wall and come back alive, even if no one is beheaded, they can be killed directly.
Upgraded to Level 3, not to mention, Fan Hui, a madman who climbed the city first, could also see thirty or forty heads with his own hands. Sometimes one person rushes too fast and captures more than a hundred people by himself. This is
Siege!
!
Therefore, the Han army had great confidence in Fan Hui's military force.
In the Chu-Han War, in terms of force, Xiang Yu, who killed hundreds of people alone in the first battle, was obviously the ceiling. He belonged to the ceiling of force at this time, and maybe even to the ceiling of all China. According to official history, he could kill several people by himself.
Out of hundreds, it seems that there is only one person who can capture a city by himself. This achievement is actually even more outrageous than many interpretations.
And Fan Hui is probably the first echelon, following closely behind, just like Cao followed Han Xin, following closely behind, but still one step behind.
Otherwise, with Xiang Yu's arrogant character, he would not have called Fan Hui a strong man, given him wine and meat, listened to Fan Hui's advice and told him to sit down, and he would have no regard for Liu Bang.
So polite, this is probably because excessive muscle training will attract the same sex.
Liu Chang did not refute the old man at this moment, but just smiled and listened to the old man's story about how Emperor Gao recruited soldiers from the old Qin people to fight against Xiang Yu.
"The arrows were missing like raindrops. We were all too scared to move forward. The shields in our hands were about to burst. Marquis Wuyang let out a loud roar and rushed forward against the rain of arrows. I was so scared that I closed my eyes.
My eyes started to rush after him..."
Liu Chang couldn't help but shake his head when he heard these first-in-command achievements. He was filled with emotion. His father's subordinates were all ruthless people. During the Han Dynasty, those who were the first to advance in battle liked to kill people with their own hands. In the early Han Dynasty, there was Fan Hui,
There was a man called Yue Jin in the late Han Dynasty. One of them was tall and the other was short, but both of them were mad demons first.
"Then you are the first to ascend...why is the title not high?"
"I was injured and my legs and feet were inconvenient, so I was unable to participate in the subsequent battle..."
Liu Chang talked with them for a long time, and then asked them to bring out food and invited them to eat together. Soon, Liu Chang became very familiar with these people. After eating and drinking, Liu Chang just said with a smile: "
I actually want to ask my husband to help me with something."
"Marquis Wuyang, please give me your orders!"
The old man stood up and was about to salute, but was stopped by Liu Chang.
Liu Chang pointed to the half-grown child beside him and said, "This is my legitimate son An."
"I have been naughty since I was a child. I refused to obey discipline and caused trouble. I got into trouble with a group of noble disciples and committed all kinds of evil in Chang'an!"
"I'm going to let him live here for half a year, so that he can taste the pain of being at the bottom!"
Hearing these words, not only Liu An, but also Zhang Meng and Lu Lu who stood silently behind him couldn't help themselves.
"No way!
!”
Several people spoke at the same time, but the old man was not busy refusing, he just looked at the child.
Liu An made a mistake not long ago.
This fault is not big. In fact, when Cao Shu taught him a lesson, he couldn't help but talk back and argue. However, this is an ancestral inheritance of the old Liu family. They all liked to argue like this. Until the fall of the Han Dynasty, didn't a group of clan members also spend all day long?
Arrogant?
But Liu Chang held on to his fault and took him out of Chang'an.
Does this mean now that you want to exile yourself???
"Father!
You can't learn everything from King Qin!
"
"How can I be exiled!
"
"Why not?!"
"Growth is in the hands of women, and they don't know the sufferings of the people. They talk about it all day long, just to make you taste the suffering!"
"I want to see the eldest mother!"
"Not to mention your eldest mother, even if your eldest father comes out to persuade me now, I will keep you here!"
Seeing such a stubborn father, Liu An immediately understood that this guy was serious.
But Lu Lu couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty... An was not rude to his biological mother, he just said a few words. If you are going to punish him so harshly, wouldn't it mean that An has to bear the burden?"
The charge of being unfilial? How will he be able to convince the public in the future? How will he be able to do things?"
"You can't do anything if you have a bad reputation? How can I do it?!"
Liu Chang said displeasedly: "If it weren't for his young age, I would temporarily deprive him of his title, drive him out, and let him fend for himself outside for three years, and then bring him here again. Even though he is young,
I just arranged a home for him!"
Zhang Meng has always been a man of few words and only does practical things.
As a member of the Queen Mother's faction, he couldn't help but say at this moment: "Ke'an is young after all. If he is allowed to stay here, something unexpected happens..."
"No need to say more!"
Liu Chang interrupted them forcefully.
Seeing Liu Chang's helpless look, everyone looked helpless.
Liu Chang looked at the old man and asked with a smile: "Can I let this Zhuzi stay in your home for a while?"
The old man hesitated, but Liu Chang said again: "I will leave a soldier in secret to guard him...to be responsible for his safety and to watch over him and not let him go out or let others disturb him. You
Don't worry, this soldier only listens to my orders and will not obey his orders. You can treat this soldier as your own child. If he doesn't work, don't give him food. He will eat the same and live in the same place.
, let him put on ordinary people's clothes..."
Liu An's face was full of displeasure, "Father, you don't have to do this, I also know that the bottom is..."
"What do you know?"
"The principles in the book are different from what you see!"
Liu Chang shouted harshly, but Liu An did not dare to speak, so Liu Chang sent someone to take Liu An to change clothes.
"When the deed is accomplished, I shall receive a heavy reward!"
Liu Chang also made a promise to his father-in-law, and the whole family did not dare to object, so they had no choice but to agree.
When Liu An went in to change clothes, Liu Chang glanced behind him and said, "Where is Mr. Zhang?"
"I'm here!"
An ordinary doctor came out. This man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a decent face. He was exactly the same as Zhang Meng. He was Zhang Meng's son, Mr. Zhang.
He is as brave and staunch as his father, but his temper is much hotter than his father. He first worked as a minor official in the arsenal, and Liu Chang didn't know him at all, until one day, several arrogances in the clan
After drinking, they wanted to go to the arsenal to get some real stuff to play with while still drunk, but the soldiers stopped them, so they relied on their status to threaten them, and even took action.
When the soldiers took a look, they saw a group of princes and kings standing in front of them, including the King of Hexi, the King of Beiting, the King of Xiting, and the Prince of Yan. Who dared to really fight back? They made them retreat continuously. At this moment
, the Shuzis met Mr. Zhang.
Zhang Fu said that this was the temple's arsenal and asked them to retreat, otherwise they would be rude.
The princes did not take this young official seriously.
Liu Xiang even stepped forward to provoke him and stabbed him in the chest with his sword scabbard.
The furious Zhang Fu slapped Liu Xiang in the face. Liu Xiang was stunned. Except for my father, my father, my mother, my aunt, my eldest mother, and An, who dared to hit me?
Immediately, Liu Qi and Liu Xian came to help and struggled with Zhang Fu. Zhang Fu fought with one against four for a long time. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen after being beaten. But the princes and kings in front of him were beaten even worse.
This guy was merciless and didn't care about the identity of these people at all. He always hit the bridge of the nose with every move. When Chai Wu came with his men, Mr. Zhang was riding on Prince Yan's body and beating him hard.
Seeing the princes and kings lying on the ground crying in pain, Chai Wu tied up the little official and sent him to Liu Chang without saying a word.
At this moment, Chai Wu just told Liu Chang that this junior official was the son of Wei Wei Zhang Meng.
Liu Chang was also very surprised. After looking at the brave and courageous guy in front of him, he immediately concluded that this guy was a good general.
You know, although Liu Xuan is young, he has inherited some of his father's martial arts. He is not as perverted as Liu Chang, but he can beat a soldier easily. These brats swarmed up and were beaten.
It's so miserable, this man can fight. The most rare thing is that he dares to grab a group of princes and kings to fight. This is the kind of person Liu Chang wants!
Liu Chang deliberately kept a straight face and threatened him, "If you beat my Youzi, aren't you afraid of being punished by the clan?"
Zhang Fu replied: "Your Majesty ordered us to guard the arsenal. If we let them in because of their identities, that would be a crime worthy of execution!"
Liu Chang was overjoyed and immediately made him a doctor.
Liu Chang also has his own ideas. Liu An currently has two samurai under his command, one is good at governance and the other is good at literature. The guy in front of him is still young. With a little training, he can be sent to Liu An as a samurai, which can be regarded as a complete complement to the martial arts.
The shortcoming in this aspect is that after all, his son will also need men to guard the four directions in the future.
What Liu Chang didn't know was that the man Zhang Fu standing in front of him was Guan Fu, a powerful general in the early Han Dynasty in history.
His father Zhang Meng, under the influence of Liu Chang, was successful in arresting Liu Chang many times, so he was continuously promoted. He was no longer favored by Guan Ying as in history, and was accepted as a disciple, and even given the surname Guan. Therefore, he
His son Zhang Fu did not become Guan Fu.
Historically, this was Zhou Yafu's general. After his father died in battle, he put on his armor and held a halberd in his hand. He summoned dozens of warriors in the army who had always been friends with him and were willing to go with him.
Prepare to rush into the Wu army camp and kill the King of Wu to avenge his father.
But when he walked out of the military camp, none of his friends dared to move forward. Only two people were willing to come out, and ten of his subordinates followed him.
He led these people and rushed all the way into the Wu army, until they reached the Wu army's general flag, and killed dozens of people in formation. After all the people he brought were killed, Guan Fu was outnumbered, so he came out again and suffered severe injuries.
He was seriously injured in more than ten places. After treatment, he was still alive and the wounds were almost half healed. He went to the general again and asked to be allowed to rush into the battle again. He said that he was already familiar with the terrain and could definitely cut down the enemy's flag!
But Zhou Yafu did not agree to this application, but after this incident, Guan Fu became famous all over the world.
It's a pity that because of his violent temper and wandering habits, he was eventually executed for disrespect, and his clan was exterminated because of the violence of his clan.
Liu Chang looked at him and said casually: "You can stay here...Don't contact An, just watch him with peace of mind, don't let outsiders disturb him, and don't let him escape..."
"only!"
Chang Liu didn't say anything more, and left the documents he had made up for Liu An with the peasants for inspection by the officials, and then left with them.
Until he left, he didn't even look at Liu An again.
Lu Lu was a little unhappy. After all, the child who grew up in front of him was now being treated like this.
"Alas, Your Majesty's punishment is too much...it's just a few words to talk back to..."
"It's not a big deal to talk back. I talk back to you all the time."
"Then you are..."
"I asked him to write the Book of Enlightenment earlier, and this guy was actually ashamed of himself... He wrote good articles and was good at learning. He also learned a lot from Liuhou, and he had good ideas. However, he was too condescending.
, thinks of himself as arrogant, and he looks like this, how can I trust him with peace of mind in entrusting me with important matters in the future?"
"Qi is better than him in this aspect!"
Lu Lu was frightened and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you can't say these words..."
"There is nothing that cannot be said... If this man continues to develop like this, he will be a foolish king... Ignoring the suffering of the people and only knowing how to immerse himself in the articles... Does being an emperor depend on whether the articles are good or not? Yes.
Do you want to see if he has any knowledge?"
"My mother dotes on him too much. No one dares to offend him, let alone suffer. This time, I want him to have a good feel of the situation among the people. Didn't he always say that he wants to explore the Tao? The Tao is among the people.
, now he can explore by himself!"
"Isn't this a bit disrespectful to the prince..."
"Oh, I must leave a legacy. From now on, the prince will go to live among the people and truly experience the lives of the people, so as not to be arrogant and talk too much and do nothing!"
Liu Chang had said so, and naturally the others could not refute anything.
When they returned to Chang'an, Lu Chan saw them from afar.
He looked extremely anxious and ran all the way in front of the two of them.
"Eldest brother, where have you been? My aunt sent three groups of people to look for you, insisting that you bring An back..."
When Liu Chang heard this, his expression was very calm.
"Pass my order to have those people come back. Anyone who dares to leave the city without permission will abandon the city!"
Lu Chan was stunned and was about to say something when Liu Chang lowered his head and stared at him. Lu Chan was immediately frightened and said, "Wei!
"
Liu Chang then rode into Chang'an City.
Lu Lu was still worried, but Liu Chang didn't seem to care about it at all, "Didn't the envoy from Shendu Kingdom say he would be here today? Has he not arrived yet?"
"Your Majesty, these barbarians have never seen a country as majestic as the Han Dynasty. After entering the Han Dynasty, they will only have to watch the scenes of the prosperous times along the way, and they will be delayed in arriving."
