When Xun You walked into the East Palace again with his sword in hand, not to mention the little fat man, even Jia Xu was startled and almost jumped up. He still stood in front of the little fat man, pointed at Xun You and asked: "Xun Gongda? What are you going to do!"
"Teach!" Xun You said angrily. He stepped forward, pushed the little fat man away, pressed him down on his seat, threw the Analects beside him to him, and said: "The Analects is the foundation of Confucianism, Gong Yang Not considered a scholar? From now on, Jia Jun will teach you Gong Yang for half an hour, and I will teach you the Analects of Confucius for half an hour!"
"Read it to me!" Xun You said angrily. The little fat man was so frightened that he trembled all over, his eyes widened, and said: "How dare you wear a sword in the palace? How dare you threaten me? Believe it or not, my father...", Before he could finish speaking, Xun You struck the desk at his feet with his sword, cutting the wooden desk into two ends. The little fat man quickly picked up the Analects and began to read.
Now, Jia Xu was dumbfounded. Your Majesty, Xun You is going to rebel!!!
The little fat man was trembling while reciting the Analects. He occasionally raised his head and winked at Jia Xu. Naturally, he wanted Jia Xu to report to the emperor. Jia Xu coughed and stood up. Xun You suddenly turned his head and stared at him. Jia Xu calmly adjusted his clothes and sat down again.
He looked at the prince and said with a smile: "The prince should study hard. The Analects of Confucius contains the great meaning of Confucianism... He Gong also read the Analects of Confucius well, so he can achieve something in Gongyang..."
Just like that, almost half an hour later, the emperor appeared in the East Palace, bringing a group of Huangmen with him. When they entered the hall and saw the prince who was studying, and Xun You who was dangling a sword beside him, many Huangmen Song Dian's face turned pale with fright. Song Dian didn't know why Xun You asked him for the sword before, but the emperor asked him to give it to him. Now when he saw him holding the sword, he seemed to be holding the prince hostage, and he shouted angrily:
"Xun Gongda?! What do you want to do?!"
Only then did Xun You see the emperor. He put away his sword, bowed to the emperor, and said, "Your Majesty!"
When the little fat man saw the emperor, he cried loudly and rushed up. He hugged the emperor and cried out about Xun You's atrocities. For some reason, the emperor kept grinning. When he saw the little fat man crying, he couldn't help it anymore. , burst out laughing, stroked the little fat man's head, and said: "I was like this in the past, too! Xun You, you are very good, teach him well!"
"As you command!" Xun You replied, holding a sword, and slowly walked to the prince. The prince reluctantly let go of the emperor's clothes, wiped his tears, sat down, and continued reading. The emperor praised Xun You and Jia Xu several times. , and left the East Palace. The little fat man reluctantly watched the emperor leave, with tears in his eyes, and continued to read the Analects of Confucius.
The emperor was not angry because of Xun You's actions. He knew how bad Liu Bian's character was. After all, he... ahem, followed his mother. If she could persuade him nicely, she really couldn't suppress him. Previously, Only Master He and the Queen Mother could suppress him. Even Queen Song could not make him obey sometimes. Xun You did the right thing, um, very good.
However, when he gets a few years older, I will personally enlighten him to prevent him from harboring hatred towards Xun You and making big mistakes in the future.
The twelfth year of Jianning
The Han Dynasty has completely reached an unprecedented prosperous age. Villages are everywhere, granaries are being built many times, and grain is piled everywhere. The grain and money in the treasury are piled up like mountains, and even the ropes stringing the money are rotten. , however, everyone can only see the treasury piling up into mountains, but they do not know how much food and money there is in the treasury.
After all, if you ask Wen Renxi, he will tell you that there is no food or money in the Han Dynasty's treasury, and if a rat is thrown in, it will starve to death.
Under the dual effects of Chidao and canals, north-south and east-west transportation developed, and the emperor's orders and political opinions could quickly reach various regions, such as Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Yuzhou and other areas. Countless fields were cultivated and the people were wealthy. Every year, Chizhou
The traffic and boat tax collected on the road can support the people of a state. This shows the economic development of these states.
In the surrounding areas, there are no bandits or bandits in Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Jiaozhou. Under the governance of two generations of governors, Wang Fu and Xing Ziang, Yangzhou developed those barren and barbaric areas, making the amount of cultivated land, grain production, etc. in Yangzhou exceed that of the Central Plains.
Dazhou is second only to Jizhou, and overseas has opened up a new world for the Han Dynasty. The fleet led by Zhang Jiao has brought back so much wealth to Yangzhou!
Household registration once again ushered in a great increase. The first batch of young children who graduated from official schools began to take up the important posts and entered all walks of life. These men, who had learned from childhood that the emperor was sacred and the man was invincible, made the emperor's rule change.
It was indestructible. In terms of people's livelihood, economy, military, culture, etc., the Han Dynasty ushered in a great prosperity. Starting from Sanhan in the east, to the grasslands in the north, to the Western Regions in the west, and to overseas countries in the south, it was completely the territory of the Han Dynasty.
This year, the emperor ordered the elderly soldiers of the Northern and Southern armies to return to their hometowns to recruit new troops and renew them.
Wen Renxi built several canals along the river between Sili and Liangzhou. Today, there are still no areas under large-scale governance. Only Yizhou and Jingzhou are left. The rest of the states are in a rapid state.
state of development.
In that year, the emperor granted a general amnesty to all the people, but Dong was not pardoned for spoiling the party.
In February, Lin Yi State attacked Jiuzhen County and Cangwu County. The new army stationed in Jiaozhou immediately counterattacked, supplemented by soldiers from Jiaozhou County. When Xing Ziang, the governor of Yangzhou, heard about it, he attacked the rear with overseas ships and attacked Lin Yi State from both sides.
It was Rinan County in the Han Dynasty. During the Yonghe period, some thieves from the area raised troops and killed the magistrate of Xianglin County in Rinan County in the Han Dynasty. From these areas, they called themselves the king of Linyi.
At that time, Fan Yan, the governor of Jiaozhi in the Han Dynasty, was campaigning against Jiaozhi County, and more than 10,000 soldiers from Jiuzhen County went to conquer it. Unfortunately, the soldiers in the Han army did not want to go on an expedition and mutinied on the way, so Fan Yan was defeated.
The news reached Luoyang, and Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty wanted to send a total of 40,000 troops from the four prefectures of Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan to suppress it. However, he was dissuaded by Minister Li Gu and finally gave up. Originally, the emperor did not know about this place, but
In recent years, the two kingdoms of Funan and Zhenla have been at war with each other, and the Linyi Kingdom has actually taken advantage of it. It has occupied several lands in the south, and its national power has greatly increased.
Subsequently, with Wang Fu's overseas policy, the Han fleet continued to harass the coastal areas of Linyi State, plundering trade, capturing slaves, etc., which made the King of Linyi furious and actually sent troops to attack Jiaozhou. However, they did not expect that
, this time the opponents were no longer local soldiers, but the regular new troops sent by the Han Dynasty, causing them to be defeated in Jiaozhou.
Subsequently, the Yangzhou navy landed from the coast, and the two armies joined forces. Within half a month, Linyi was destroyed.
The king's body was sent to Luoyang.
However, the demise of Linyi State attracted the attention of the southern powers, Funan and Zhenla.
The two countries were instantly awakened. It turned out that there was a ferocious beast around them. Sensing the threat, they immediately sent envoys to Luoyang to show their goodwill.
