After Kushan was captured, in order to appease the local people, Zhuge Liang still maintained the original approach of the Kushan Empire. He did not even have any defense or suppression against the powerful local nobles. What was done before will be the same in the future. Of course, for
Zhuge Liang also had his own ideas on how to govern Kushan. Sooner or later, the county system would be implemented in Kushan.
However, he still had to return to the temple as soon as possible. As a minister, he could be said to be the one who spent the most time away from Luoxian during the Yankang period of the Han Dynasty. Since he became the minister, he has hardly returned to Luoxian.
Yang was busy outside. Although the affairs of Kushan were important, the fall of Kushan made Zhuge Liang realize that the prosperity of a country mainly lies within it, not outside.
However, he could not leave Kushan easily before the arrival of the new prime minister. Zhuge Liang also gave his own suggestions for the candidates for state shepherds in these areas. It was best to mobilize some young people to avoid appearing in the temples.
The problem of a lack of jobs and a lack of jobs has always worried Zhuge Liang. Before he leaves, it would be best to train some young people who can take over their positions.
Among them, people like Cao Chong and Cao Zhi are outstanding young people, and Zhuge Liang also has high hopes for them. However, because of this, they need to hone themselves in more places. As the pillars of the temple, they must be able to
Use your talents anywhere.
Obviously, the emperor agreed to Zhuge Liang's proposal. During this discussion among the ministers, Sima Fu, Cao Chong, Zhuge Ke, Xun Ji, as well as Cheng Yan, Zhuge Zhan, Yuan Kan, Wang Ji, He Jian, Shi Bao
, Xu Yun, Fu Gu, Cui Zan, Zhang Xiong, Wen Rensheng and other young people mostly want to come to Guishang. This is not an exile, but a kind of training for them.
These people have no dissatisfaction with the temple's transfer orders. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that in the near future, these people may replace the many servants today and become the core of the temple. This is for them
, is a good opportunity, this is their opportunity to compete for future status, these young people did not delay, and soon after receiving the order, they each left Luoxian County and headed for Guishang.
It is said that the emperor also met them in Houde Hall and saw them off.
While they rushed to Guishang, the prince also rushed from Liangzhou to Luoxian.
In January of the 24th year of Yankang, Prince Liu Qu returned to Luo County. After meeting with everyone, he followed Sima Yi to continue handling state affairs in the Houde Hall. Speaking of which, the prince was really disappointed with this war. He had always been good.
He was fighting, but this time he failed to follow him to the battlefield and failed to kill several Kushan people. He told Zhuge Liang that he wanted to avenge the Xiaoyong camp and burn the prisoners of Guishan to death, but Zhuge Liang rejected it.
He also severely reprimanded him for thinking this way.
Sitting in the Hall of Houde, Hu'er was a little depressed. He lowered his head and quickly looked at the memorials from various places. To be honest, he really didn't like to look at these things. It was not enough to have the minister to help him look at it.
What? Why should I waste my time on this? Hu'er thought dissatisfiedly, looking at this memorial from outside the Great Wall, Hu'er asked helplessly: "Sima Linggong, this memorial
How should I reply?”
Sima Yi beside him hurriedly took the memorial, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then said: "Prefect Yuan Yao wants to borrow some Xiliang cattle for livestock raising. I think it is good. It is bitterly cold outside the Great Wall. I heard from Xiliang
Some farm cattle in Liang areas are not afraid of the cold, which is also a good thing for development outside the Great Wall."
"Your Majesty, do you still need me to personally decide on the cattle farming matter?" Hu'er asked with some dissatisfaction.
Sima Yi didn't reply and secretly glanced at Liu Xi in the distance.
The Emperor, who had his eyes closed and was thinking about something, suddenly opened his eyes. The anger in his eyes made Sima Yi tremble and quickly turned away. Liu Xi opened his eyes and looked aside.
Liu Qu, who was complaining, shouted: "Hu'er..." At this time, Hu'er realized that his father had been sitting behind him.
He jumped up in a hurry, looked at his father, and smiled awkwardly, "Father..."
Liu Xi stared at him, the expression in his eyes changing for a long time, and finally he sighed helplessly, shook his head, and said: "Forget it, you should go about your own business... You don't have to come to Houde Hall again.
Already..."
"Father...don't be angry...I..."
"No need to say more, just go." Liu Xi waved his hand, and Hu'er had no choice but to leave Houde Hall. Liu Xi did not raise his head to look at him again. He pursed his lips and looked at Sima Yi beside him, and he ordered.
: "We must do a good job with the cattle work. Send the cattle to the outside of the Great Wall in time. If we send more, the outside of the Great Wall may be developed into a large pasture for the Han Dynasty in the future."
"Here you go!" Sima Yi bowed.
After finishing the memorial, Sima Yi said goodbye and left. Only Liu Xi was left alone in the Houde Hall of Nuo Da. Liu Xi sat quietly in his seat, his eyes full of disappointment. He had already expressed his feelings for the prince.
There was no hope, the prince's character was like that, and what was hateful was that he only had two sons, and he was so young when he was cured of the disease.
"Dong...dong...dong..." Sitting alone in the main hall, Liu Xi could clearly feel his irregular heartbeat, just like a broken machine that was emitting chaotic painful moans.
I often feel palpitations and other kinds of pain, which are accompanied by difficulty in breathing. No matter how wide I open my mouth, I can't breathe any fresh air.
Sometimes, he would even stop breathing completely for four to five seconds, which frightened Liu Xi. He felt that he had touched the door of death, and his symptoms were somewhat the same as those of his father and grandfather, but there were also great differences.
Different, according to what Liu Xi knew, my father often had difficulty breathing and had unbearable headaches, and the same was true for Ye Ye.
But Liu Xi is different. He has never had a headache. The pain is always in his heart. He suffers from severe pain in his heart. He often coughs and even coughs up blood. Many years ago, when the famous doctor Hua Tuo was still alive, he worked with
Hua Tuo had told him about his father's symptoms. Hua Tuo told him in a low voice that this was a heart disease that occasionally gave rise to more painful head problems. The most frightening thing was that this disease was likely to be passed down from generation to generation.
passed down.
Liu Xi was still a little doubtful at that time, but as he grew older, he finally believed Hua Tuo's words. No wonder, Liu Xi consulted a large amount of clan information. Emperor Xiaokang's biological father was Jiedu.
Liu Chang, the Marquis of Ting, was twenty-nine years old. The cause of his death was illness. It is said that after a slight fall, his limbs suddenly became paralyzed and his mouth hemorrhaged. He died soon after.
Emperor Xiaokang's Ye Ye, also known as Liu Shu, was the first to be killed in Luoyang's three disasters in the past. He was thirty-one years old. He also died of heart disease. The doctors at the time could not even recognize his condition.
Therefore, many people were implicated, and the founder of their lineage, King Xiao Wang Liu Kai of Hejian, lived the longest, at the age of forty-eight, but his condition remained the same.
As for Emperor Xiaohuan, who came from the same lineage, he was thirty-six years old.
From this point of view, what Hua Tuo said in the past is really right. This problem probably appeared in this lineage after King Xiao of Hejian. Starting from him, none of his descendants lived past the age of forty.
Yes, by the way, Liu Xi is an exception. This year, he is already forty-two. In addition, there are also King Chenliu, Liu Xie, and King Xiao of Hejian. In this lineage, these are the only two people over forty.
And now Liu Xi can also feel his gradual weakness, as well as the inability to breathe that emerges from time to time. He can't even get angry, which will occasionally cause him to fall into fainting. All of this seems to remind Liu
Xi, your time is running out, you have to think about the future. Liu Xi is not afraid of death, he is only worried about the future great man.
"Qi Yue!"
Liu Xi suddenly shouted, Qi Yue hurriedly walked in, stood aside, and looked at the emperor. Liu Xi then said seriously: "Prepare the carriage, I have been staying in Luoxian County for too long, and I want to go out and walk around.
..Don’t spread this news to anyone, not even the prince. If Sima Yi comes to Houde Hall tomorrow, serve him tea and don’t let him get exhausted...Let him and Liu Yi talk about this.
Let’s deal with it together.”
"Here you go!" Qi Yue lowered her head and asked: "Do you need me to go with you, my country?"
"Don't go, just stay in the palace...Yuan Shang hasn't come back yet?"
"He hasn't come back yet."
"Then let Zhong Changtong accompany me."
Qi Yue was stunned. Didn't the emperor always like Zhong Changtong? However, he didn't ask any more questions and immediately agreed. Liu Xi sat in the Houde Hall and waited until the carriage was ready, while he was handling various matters in the household.
Zhong Changtong was also called to the palace. He looked at the Huangmen busy with a blank expression. There were many embroidered messengers gathering in the palace, but no one paid attention to him.
While he was thinking about it, he saw a handsome middle-aged scribe walking over. Zhong Chang was stunned. When he took a closer look, he immediately bowed to him. The person who came was the emperor, but he was wearing casual clothes. The emperor helped him up.
, then he said: "Get in the car with me!"
"I don't dare."
"You want to resist the decree?"
Zhong Changtong got on the carriage obediently, and Liu Xi sat in front of him. The carriage immediately drove out of the palace. Feeling the palace, Zhong Changtong was still confused. He didn't know why the emperor asked him to come.
, I don’t know what the emperor wanted to do. After the emperor got on the carriage, he closed his eyes and lowered his head to rest.
Zhong Changtong did not dare to disturb him, but slightly rolled up the car curtain.
"Don't roll it up."
"Well, but where are we going?"
"Go to Raoyang County."
"Ah??? Going to Hebei?? I didn't even bring a change of clothes!"
ps: The funeral and graduation defense are squeezed together, so I can’t update too much. I’ll make up for it when I’m done with them.
