Although the saying "There is no need for a real man to have a wife" is said all the time, in fact, anyone with a brain knows that this is either a refusal or helplessness.
Now both of them have a good choice. Liu Bei also really wants to see how Liu Xie is doing recently. It is impossible to learn too much in-depth things by sending an ordinary person there, but it is indeed reassuring to send Guan Yu there.
Liu Bei gave Chen Xi a look. This kind of thing was no longer just nonsense. Although it was said to be for Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, things were completely different.
"General Guan is going here to make the news bigger. Don't be afraid of spending money. Make a good gift to His Majesty. It's best to get the documents of His Majesty's marriage. Of course, it would be better if everyone in the world knows about it." Chen Xi smiled.
Said with a smile.
Speaking of which, Chen Xi didn't really want Guan Yu to go to Yongzhou at this time, but since Liu Bei agreed, Chen Xi wouldn't look for trouble, so he agreed.
"But it's better to prepare a charter, and if you want to go, it's best to leave as soon as possible. Maybe you can catch up with the imperial meeting." Li You took over the conversation and suggested.
"Well, that time is indeed the best time for us to contact His Majesty." Liu Ye said with an instant understanding.
"Yes, that was the best time for me to understand His Majesty's current situation." Lu Su nodded and said. He had basically no loyalty to Liu Xie, after all, he had never met him.
"I think we should do it with more momentum. Isn't there news recently that Sun Ce and Cao Cao have formed an alliance?" Chen Xi said seriously. Although marriage is very unreliable, it is also the most reliable.
The way of forming an alliance, I don’t believe that there is no thorn in Sun Ce’s heart.
There was a lot of estrangement between Sun Ce and Cao Cao. If this happened again, Chen Xi could not believe that Zhou Yu was not wary of Cao Cao. Anyway, he just did it casually and it didn't matter whether he succeeded or not.
"Cao Cao and Sun Ce are not of the same mind, and Cao Cao and the Ma family are not of the same mind." Fazheng curled his lips and said, it is impossible for them to be intimate.
"Then I'll hit the road tomorrow." Guan Yu is the type who leaves as soon as he wants. As for the danger, he is not very worried about it. Of course, the more embarrassing thing is that Zhao Yun's incident has not yet happened...
"That's good. Since General Guan is going there in person, there are plenty of gifts to choose from." Lu Su frowned and said, "Come to the treasury tomorrow to get the gift list and gifts. In the evening, please discuss with me what to bring.
?”
"Yun Chang, come to the treasury tomorrow morning, and I will choose the gifts myself in the evening." Liu Bei thought about it and felt that what Lu Su said was reasonable. It would be more sincere to choose gifts yourself.
"Zi Yang, ask someone to bring a copy of our plan tonight." Liu Bei turned to Liu Ye and said again. It was obvious that Liu Bei really planned to attend the meeting.
Chen Xi and Liu Ye looked at each other in confusion, and Li You and Lu Su didn't look very good either, but they all agreed. It would be strange if nothing happened if they really carried out the plan.
"Agriculture is the first priority, followed by salt tax. It doesn't matter if we report these, it will give His Majesty confidence in the world." Chen Xi said slowly, this thing really can't be reported, Liu Xie wants to report it.
It would be hell if we don't raise taxes.
Although they could totally ignore Liu Xie, it would be too much to ignore the one who had agreed to carry the banner.
"Lord, when we reported the salt tax to you before, we re-evaluated the price, and next year we will extend the average price to all parts of the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty needs to agree with this." Liu Ye is not stupid, and he instantly understood
Now you know what Chen Xi’s words mean.
The taxes and fees before the Han Dynasty were basically agricultural tax and salt tax, and there were very few commercial taxes. If you reported it like this, there would be no problem. As soon as Liu Ye's head moved, he remembered the previous salt price incident. This was not just
ok?
This matter can be provoked at the great court meeting, without any reaction from Cao Cao. Liu Xie agrees, Liu Bei executes it, the family approves, and Cao Cao and Sun Ce are completely helpless.
"Well, this kind of important matter that concerns all the people should indeed be approved by your Majesty." Liu Bei was so distracted by Liu Ye and didn't ask any other questions.
To be honest, Liu Bei has actually noticed something. His people either don't take Liu Xie seriously and only pay attention to him, or they only care about the Han Dynasty and not who the emperor is. In short, they really care about Liu Xie.
It seems not!
[Alas, these guys, let’s leave it like this, agricultural tax and salt tax. It’s not good to let Cao Cao know all our strength.] Liu Bei thought helplessly.
Guo Jia looked at Liu Bei's expression and made some guesses about the opponent's mentality. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Liu Bei's thinking. They all had their own ideas, and Liu Bei could make them think differently.
The person exerts force in one direction.
"It seems that there hasn't been much movement in central Sichuan recently." Jia Xu changed the subject silently, "But by the way, Sichuan and Sichuan do have good generals."
"There are many good ministers, but Liu Yizhou doesn't know how to use them. But after all, there is no shortage of good ministers and strong generals. There is no problem in guarding the Han Dynasty. I heard that he just stepped on the Southern Barbarians recently." Fazheng took over the conversation and said, he had never thought about Liu Zhang at all.
It's so fierce.
"It's pretty awesome." Chen Xi replied silently. This group of people actually thought that the current Liu Zhang was weak simply because they didn't know how useless Liu Zhang was in history.
To be honest, with the natural dangers of Sichuan and Shu, and the combat effectiveness displayed by Liu Zhang's men now, it would be impossible for Cao Cao to attack without adequate preparation.
According to Chen Xi's estimation, Liu Zhang probably fought a lively battle as soon as he came to power. He gained courage after fighting against the top princes in the world, and turned around and stepped on the invading Nanman. His mood was obviously different.
To be honest, no one wants to be a waste. Who wants to lie down if he has the ability to rise up? In the previous life, Liu Zhang probably didn't make up his mind to fight Zhang Lu. There were people inside to restrain him, so he couldn't become a real general. It would be weird if he didn't lose.
After losing several times in a row, Liu Zhang would definitely have lost his courage. If he couldn't even defeat a prince as weak as Zhang Lu, Liu Zhang would definitely give up on himself.
This life was completely different. Buheibuchui had a draw with Yuan Shu, who was third in the world, and no one took advantage. Zhang Lu, who was half the main force, fought and retreated, but then turned around and dispatched troops to annihilate the Nanman. Liu Zhang
It's weird to feel like a weakling.
This is also the reason why Zhang Song has no signs of selling Liu Zhang. He lives a good life. Who would do such a thing as a seller seeking glory? Besides, although Liu Zhang is not as prosperous as Liu Bei, he has no pressure at all to be a local emperor despite the dangers of Sichuan and Shu.
As for Liu Bei's success in reviving the Han Dynasty, that would be even better. Liu Zhang is soft-tempered and will definitely surrender if he is surrounded by them for a few times. As the only remaining state herder named Liu with no resistance, he will definitely be fine by then.
They can just follow Liu Zhang and surrender together. With Liu Zhang's face in front, it will be easier to become a high-ranking official with a good salary, so now Yizhou is actually very united!
