At first, when facing Han Ying, Liu Chang actually had some bad guesses in his mind. But when he actually saw him, Liu Chang denied his guesses. Liu Chang could tell what was in front of him at a glance.
What kind of person is he?

He is indeed as described by the people in Xiuyi. He is a young, handsome, tall, and well-groomed man. But he is indeed not the same type of person as his elder brother. He looks confident, and the whole tenant is sunny and has bright eyes.
He prayed and met Liu Chang, and sat in front of the emperor in a neither humble nor overbearing manner. Liu Ying looked at him with a hint of admiration in her eyes.
He probably really impressed his eldest brother through his talent and learning, just like how Liu Hou impressed Emperor Gao through his abilities.
Liu Chang looked him up and down, which was very impolite, but in the face of the emperor's scrutiny, Han Ying was still generous and did not feel anything wrong at all.

As the person who single-handedly created the "Han Poetry School" in history, Han Ying's historical status is even stronger than that of Fuqiu Bo. During the time when the various Confucian schools were beaten by Dong Zhongshu, he once fought with Dong Zhongshu.
There was a 50-50 split, no distinction between top and bottom... Then Dong Zhongshu felt that his knowledge was very good, and his ideas were immediately used to contribute to the "Unification of the Spring and Autumn Period".
He is definitely a different kind of Confucian, which can be seen from his first letter.
Liu Chang glanced at him and asked maliciously: "I heard that you wrote a letter to insult Fenyin Suhou... Is this true?
"There is such a thing."
"Even I respect Prime Minister Zhou very much and dare not offend him. How dare you insult him?!"
Han Ying said seriously: "I am not insulting, but admonishing...I believe that loyalty is higher than all virtues, and filial piety is subordinate to loyalty. If loyalty and filial piety must be sacrificed, I would rather be a loyal minister than a filial son."
.The subordinates should treat the monarch with morality and support him with morality, and support him with virtue... They must not do anything to bring out the monarch's bad reputation. It is a great disloyalty to seek reputation by being honest!!"
This guy is obviously a Confucian, but he dug out the core of Legalism from somewhere and directly borrowed it.
He openly opposed governing the country with filial piety and advocated governing the country with loyalty, believing that loyalty comes before filial piety. At the same time, he opposed ministers using any radical methods to persuade the king. He actually publicly insulted Bigan, Boyi, Shuqi, Bian Sui, Jiezitui, etc.
People think that these people are loyal... It's hard to say for others. Zhang Buyi must like his idea very much. He believes that the king is not guilty. If there is a crime, it must be because the ministers did not assist him well.
Do these sound familiar? Yes, the Confucian Dharma Bone of the Han Dynasty. This bone is what Dong Zhongshu got from him. Dong Zhongshu absorbed the loyalty part, but excluded the king's fault, but Xiaozhu used this method to crack
Dong Zhongshu's ideas to limit the monarch's power, Dong Zhongshu
Originally, he wanted to complete the unification through the divine right of kings, and at the same time put shackles on the emperor. The natural disasters occurred because of the emperor's fault... As a result, Emperor Wu directly used Han Ying's ideas to rebel against his army. The natural disasters were due to the ministers' unfavorable assistance, and then the Three Gongs began in the Western Han Dynasty.
Fun mode.
In the past, many people dreamed of becoming the Third Duke, but later they became a thorn in the side of hell. When ministers heard that they had become the Third Duke, they all cried when they took office...
Only one person survived the Three Gong period without incident, and that was Gongsun Hong.
Liu Chang frowned. According to his own feelings, this idea is good. It would be so refreshing to be surrounded by Zhang Buyi. You can do whatever you want, and there will be people blowing it every day... cough cough
, but when Liu Chang looked at the long term, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He was wise and powerful, and it was no problem to be surrounded by Zhang Buyi. But if a mediocre person like An, who was incompetent and unlearned, came to power, he would still be surrounded by Zhang Buyi.
I doubt...that would be a big problem.
"That's inappropriate... Your method can only be applied to a wise king like me. What if the king is unethical? Oh, yes, according to you, there is no such thing as an unethical king, and Hu Hai is not at fault either.
All the crimes are Zhao Gaolisi's, right?"
Han Ying said simply without any excuse: "Since Your Majesty thinks it's inappropriate, it must be inappropriate!" "There's something very wrong with this idea!" "Then what do you think, Your Majesty?"
This reaction silenced Liu Chang... It's you!! Han Buyi!!
Co-author of the debate between two great scholars during the reign of Emperor Wu,
It’s just the internal strife between the two of them!
It seems that Dong Zhongshu has more integrity...
Han Ying hurriedly spoke, "Your Majesty, I am only opposed to admonishing the king through radical methods... I believe that a wise king can listen to the useful advice of his ministers, and there is no need to use radical methods to persuade him. But if
For a king like Hu Hai, radical remonstrances are of no use to him.... The ministers should remonstrate in a reasonable way...."
Liu Chang's face was still a little ugly, without any emotion.
Han Ying changed his statement again, "I believe that the king's behavior cannot violate the law and should act in accordance with the law. If the king's behavior exceeds the law, the officials will use the law to stop him.
..."
This time, Liu Chang finally became interested.
"Law?"
Han Ying said seriously: "That's it, Emperor Gao established the law, and you improved the law. There is nothing that can be modified in the current law..."
When Han Ying spoke, he was also secretly looking at the emperor's face, observing the details, and found that the emperor frowned. He hurriedly said: "Although there are no modifications, we still have to keep pace with the times... But some fundamental things are
Unchangeable... I believe that Your Majesty should establish a law for the king... stipulating what the king should do and what he cannot do. If there is any violation of the law... the ministers can act according to the law.
Disposal..."
Every time he spoke, he would pause for a while, look at the emperor's face, and then continue. "Are you asking me to add the king's law to the law?" "No future generations are allowed to change it... This is a bit interesting.
.""Snow
Liu Chang doesn't like being restricted, but he is happy to see his descendants being restricted...especially this kind of legal restrictions. This set of things can't restrict the king. At most, it can only be given to ministers.
This is an excuse for us. If we meet someone like Hu Hai, we can directly ask the elder for his family law. Liu Chang estimates that based on his current merits and reputation, what he has formulated will eventually lead to an unfilial son. He thinks
I'm afraid it won't be easy to change it... This is actually a kind of risk avoidance.
Instead of letting the ignorant king force the people to rebel, causing the ministers to rebel, and causing chaos in the world, it is better to let the ministers directly deal with the ignorant emperor.
As for whether the minister who took care of the foolish emperor will rebel... Liu Chang can't say what will happen in the future. If this becomes a tradition, it is possible to avoid rebellion.
After all, given the situation of the Han Dynasty, it would be too difficult to create a force outside that could destroy the Han Dynasty. It could only be an internal problem.
Han Ying, a Confucian master, was talking to the emperor about ruling the country by law... He proposed to divide the laws into several categories, and then the emperor would personally impose restrictions on subsequent kings... Just like Emperor Gao stipulated that
Liu Bu is not like a king. In fact, Emperor Gao’s regulations
It is still quite useful...even four hundred years later, some people still follow his ideas and use it as an excuse to attack Xiahou Zao or one of Cao Kong's descendants...whose descendants are unknown.
It's easy to say, after all, those who compile history have said that it is impossible to find out the truth.
Liu Chang was neither in a hurry to agree nor to object. Instead, he asked about etiquette.
Han Ying's views on etiquette were even more pro-junior. He once wrote a letter to Liu Chang, but did not receive much response. So, he quickly and flexibly adapted and now told Liu Chang the etiquette of quietness and inaction...
Lu Lu stood not far away, looking a little confused. He was indeed a great Confucian, and he talked about everything but Confucianism!
Han Ying reduced the etiquette and deleted the tedious parts. He regarded the etiquette as a moral standard and as a reminder... It coincided with Liu Chang's idea. If the law prohibits it, it should not be done, and the etiquette advocates it.
And for that... This man is very knowledgeable. The most difficult thing is that he is almost proficient in Confucianism.
All factions, and also have certain research on Legalism, Huang Lao, Mohism, etc... At this age, to be able to achieve such an achievement, people are indeed different, but he has met a more powerful opponent.
, Dong Zhongshu must have destroyed his confidence in the future...
"The public's attention is all tears. Danyouzhannu tame Zhaowu Tongtujin Yiyishu it Yugongke l master! "Yes, your ideas are very good...but a little too out of the ordinary. When you go back
Write well and give it to me again
Submit a letter!"
When leaving the Hall of Houde, Han Ying's face was filled with a smile. The emperor really took a fancy to his idea!
Liu Ying is also sincerely happy for his good friend... Although Liu Ying has many bad habits, in essence, he is still a kind person... In fact, his illegitimate child outside is not
Many, some of them have been arranged by Zong Zheng a long time ago, and he will visit from time to time... As for Han Ying, he really doesn't have any bad thoughts, he just thinks that this person is very talented and knowledgeable, and he is a good friend worth making friends with.
, Emperor Liu Ying cannot make friends, but Emperor Liu Ying can.20
Han Ying thanked Liu Ying sincerely.
"Thank you, Your Majesty... for allowing me to finally fulfill my ambition!"
"Hahaha, you don't have to be polite...I know that my eldest brother will definitely value your teachings...You are the most knowledgeable person I have ever met!"
"You are exaggerating... There are many people in the world who are more knowledgeable than me, and the prince is one of them."
Liu Ying thought of Yuzi and said with a smile: "That Zhuzi is not bad... he is the most accomplished in the clan... but his personality is a bit impatient... he is like his father."
Han Ying said goodbye to Liu Ying and returned to his mansion. He also had many disciples. After he came to Chang'an, he recruited disciples everywhere and even poached others. Many of his disciples were even older than himself.
When Han Ying walked in, everyone stood up in a hurry, as if they had been waiting for the teacher for a long time.
"teacher??"
"How's it going? Have you met His Majesty?"
The eyes of the disciples were equally fiery. They all knew that the prosperity of the school would be determined by this moment. Han Ying laughed and said, "It's done... His Majesty has accepted our proposition of governing the country by law and etiquette...
""Very good!!"
Everyone was about to cheer, but suddenly stopped. "Rule the country by law?? But our idea is not loyalty..." The disciples looked a little confused.
Han Ying said seriously: "I just made a little change to our proposition...
"A little bit??"
This seems to jump directly from Confucianism to an inexplicable field...
But his disciples still accepted it. After all, Han Ying's greatest achievement was not his ideas, but his alternative interpretation of poetry and etiquette. This was what attracted everyone to follow him.
At this moment, Liu Chang appeared in the house of Ruyin Hou and his family. Liu Chang and Xia Hou were sitting on the kitchen stove, with wine and arrow pots beside them.
They were so drunk that they grabbed the arrows on the side and threw them into the distance together to see who could throw it farther... Even though Xia Houzao tried his best, he still couldn't defeat Liu Chang.
, seeing Liu Chang's arrow almost flying out of the courtyard, Xiahou Zao was a little frustrated.
"I wonder when I can win over His Majesty..." Xiahou Zao will leave tomorrow.
Liu Chang burped, "If you leave this time, it will probably be a bit troublesome to go back to Chang'an." "Yes... it's still a long way, and besides, I still have to go to Shendu this time."
"Zao, I'll leave everything to you this time... Don't be anxious when you are in trouble... Observe the situation more. Peacock is now buying Han's ordnance. This matter is beneficial to Xiting Kingdom, but people must have
In the long-term plan, we can't let Peacock directly annex Baicheng... I'm afraid there are villains telling me... When you go to Xiting Kingdom, you should listen more to Zhidu, Zhidu can see it clearly, but after all, he
I don’t have such an advantage as you..."
"I know!"
"What do you know... During this time, you should spend more time with Ci, and your father... Your father is your only child. Before you leave, you should spend more time with him. I, a man, will rule the country with filial piety."
..."
"Who in Chang'an doesn't know that I, Xiahou Zao, am a famous filial son? In all my life, I have never slapped my father and mother in the face!"
Liu Chang burst out laughing.
"If your father hears this, you will get a slap in the face first..."
Sometimes, Liu Chang envied Xia Houzao. People like him had almost no worries. He lived in his own way every day and lived a valuable life.
In Han Xin's plan to disrupt Shendu, Xiahou Zao occupies a large proportion. Han Xin even thought about whether to send Xiahou Zao directly to Shendu as the Prime Minister, as if he believed that when he became the Prime Minister, he would be able to destroy the one he was in.
If the country cannot be destroyed, it will make chickens and dogs restless.
"I heard someone said that you got into a fight with the Pingyang Hou family in Wuding Tower?" Xiahou Zao recalled for a moment, "That's what happened." "Why did you hit him?" "It doesn't look good to your eyes.
"
In a standard Xiahou Zao style reply, Liu Chang shook his head, "I don't like you now..." "That guy named Cao... Houzi is not a good person. He was with seven or eight cowards that day."
We were drinking together and asked an old musician who played at Wuding Tower to play at his house.
During the performance, he made all kinds of ridicule and ridicule... humiliating people... I went over at that time... I slapped him in the face, and the guy was useless, and I knocked him unconscious...
The people around me didn’t dare to stand up, they all lowered their heads and didn’t dare to say a word..."
"You gave him a good slap... He came directly to the Queen and said that while he was listening to music, you went up and slapped him for no reason... You made his face swollen...
I can't even open my eyes... The queen took him and looked at me. He cried like a heart-rending person. "Come to see me, he cried like a heart-breaking thing..."
"Then what did your Majesty do?" "I slapped the other side of his face..."
"Hahaha~~~"
"Although you are the most unreliable among the wise men and hate those outside the Great Wall...but you are an upright person and have a good heart. I know that you have been using your own money to support the families of your former subordinates who died in the war.
...Your hatred towards those outside the Great Wall is probably because of those subordinates...I think if you have a conflict with Cao Qi, it must be his fault."
Xiahou Zao didn't say much this time, he just scolded: "That guy needs a beating... He even asked his father to give my father a message... One day I'll beat his father too!"
"The Marquis of Pingyang is seriously ill, but he can't bear your beating." "Then let's wait until he gets better."
Xiahou Zao was very proud, "Anyway, my father is now a court official... who can arrest me?" "Aren't you afraid that Ru Yinhou will kill you out of righteousness?" "My father is my only son... who can kill me?"
Let him live forever?"
"I think he probably doesn't expect you anymore..."
It wasn't until Xiahou Zao was so drunk that he lay on the ground and fell asleep. Liu Changfang stood up and asked people to carry Xiahou Zao in. With Lu Lu's support, he got on the carriage and walked towards the palace.
Returning to the empty Houde Hall, the queen personally came to serve him, helping him change his clothes and bringing him hangover soup.
Liu Chang looked at Cao Shu secretly, "Are you not angry anymore?"
"I have never been angry... His Majesty is his uncle, and he should be educated... But... this way of education..."
"I treat him as my own son... I'll beat An in the same way if he gets into trouble." "I'm just worried about my brother... My brother's health is not good to begin with. If something happens to An Qi again...
..” “That’s not the case, I have restrained my strength, otherwise his teeth would have been knocked out by me... Nothing will happen.”
The two were talking, but Liu An walked in happily. Liu An looked particularly happy, as if he had some happy news to tell them. Cao Shu's eyes lit up, "Tiying is pregnant??"
Liu An was about to speak, but when his mother asked him, everyone was stunned, "Huh??"
Cao Shu was a little disappointed and said no more. Liu An looked at his father again and said, "Father, please take a look at this!"
Liu An handed the memorial to Liu Chang, feeling very confident.
"This is the etiquette that I have studied! The etiquette school has made mistakes, but the etiquette itself is still meaningful... What do you think of the etiquette of this Huang-Lao school? Is it possible??"
Liu An spent nearly a month to develop a new set of etiquette, which was born out of Confucianism and shaped like Huang Lao. Liu An felt that these etiquettes were perfectly suitable for the present and would definitely meet his father's expectations. Now
Stable! Liu Chang looked at his memorial suspiciously. He looked back and forth for a long time, but his expression became more and more tangled. He looked at An and sighed.
"An... I don't blame you if you can't think of it... But you just renamed someone else's idea and submitted it... This is a bit too much... It's not like you to grab credit. At least you can do something for yourself.
Something..."
"Ah?? Father, I wrote this myself... Why did I steal someone else's? This is..." Liu Chang picked up another petition from the side and handed it to Liu An. Liu
An lowered his head and looked up, the more he looked, the more shocked he became.
Tian Wei's two petitions made the people suddenly declare that the government unanimously expressed the idea of paying tribute to the prime minister, as if they were early. "Who is this??"
"How could someone be so shameless?! He actually plagiarized my academic work, Mr. Huang?!" Liu An was furious.
