Chapter 411: Send Wang Lang to Monitor Zhao Yun and Lu Su

Before the implementation of the recruitment system for the separation of soldiers and peasants, the warlords on the land of China, except for the beasts like the Western Liang army that do not work, rely solely on robbery, other princes must respect the farming season, farming and harvesting in spring and autumn, and use military slack in winter and summer.

In this way, your territory can be sustainable and not be exhausted.

Especially in 195, the first year of Jian'an, as Han officials and princes in the world were nominally obeyed the emperor and could not promote an unknown army to attack each other, this restraint became more and more obvious.

From the late first lunar month to the half of March, the spring plowing season for two months and the land reclamation preparation period before spring plowing, all the state patriarchs were farming and there was no trouble.

Li Su is naturally no exception. In Chengdu, he was not only eating, drinking, having fun, bathing, and rubbing his back every day, but also cooking daily business, persuading farmers to rectify their efforts, and the whole school was ineffective in doing nothing.

It was not until late March that Li Su finished his inaction and took some action.

First, on March 16, he sent a messenger to formally write a letter to Liu Bei, urging Liu Bei to pilot the "destroy the pastoral and envoy" in some states behind him to demonstrate the interests of the interests. After the letter was sent, Liu Bei would naturally organize discussions in Chang'an to form public opinion, and then send it to Luoyang for the emperor to approve-

Liu Xie had already started from Hongnong to Luoyang in the first month. Zhu Yan, the Yin of Henan, spent a lot of money to repair the Luoyang palace since the second half of 194, and it had been initially restored by the end of the year.

Although it is not as luxurious as the time of Emperor Ling, many decorative things were destroyed and not rebuilt after they were destroyed, at least there are no broken walls and the ruins and garbage were also cleaned. The restored palace can only be said to be simple and clean, with a simple style, so it is definitely no problem to live there.

Liu Bei wanted to implement civil affairs reform in his ruling region, and the reasons were sufficient. With the great name of "to prevent the country from falling into warlord separatism again", Liu Xie certainly could not stop it, nor did he have any excuses or strength to stop it. So this matter was just a formality, and the main time was spent on the messenger's journey, and there would definitely be a conclusion within two months.

Li Su's messenger left Chengdu on March 16th and arrived in Chang'an on April 8th. Liu Bei discussed and asked Zhong Yao, Xun You and Liu Ba to give advice. It took six or seven days. On April 15th, Zhong Yao sent from Chang'an and took the common opinions of Liu Bei's camp to pay homage to the emperor.

Because Zhong Yao was a civil servant, he could not travel day and night like the Kuaima Messenger, so he walked slowly. He walked more than 700 miles from Chang'an to Luoyang for ten days, arrived in Huayin on the 18th, Hongnong on the 20th, and Luoyang on the 25th.

After Liu Xie received the meeting, he took the Liu Bei letter submitted by Zhong Yao and asked Dong Cheng, Duan Wei and Zhu Yan, as well as Yang Biao, Cai Yong and Zhao Wen, who were the three dukes, and asked them to express their opinions:

"The emperor's uncle reported that the right general Li Su was transferred from Yizhou to the governor of Yongzhou, and also emphasized that Liu Yan's rebellion was inappropriate in "destroying envoys and establishing the gangsters" in that year. He suggested that the provincial governors be abolished in Yizhou and other mainland states without war, and set up three other envoys to pilot the project and wait and see the effect of the above-mentioned states gradually eliminating the danger of warlord separatism. What do you think?"

Among the three people who held military power, Duan Wei and Liu Bei had a relatively close relationship. After all, Duan Wei had already decided to surrender to Liu Bei in the Battle of Jingyuan to seek stability. Later, it was by chance that Dong Cheng would gain power, and Duan Wei had to return to his base Hongnong, so he stayed in the center with Dong Cheng.

So when Liu Xie asked, Duan Wei was the first to say: "Your Majesty, I am a martial artist, and I don't understand civil affairs. But since the early emperor, the world has been in chaos, and all the warlords and princes who have caused trouble in the world have deliberately strengthened their military power. I have never heard of any of them weakening their military power in the prefectures and counties under their jurisdiction and restricting their own hands and feet.

What's more, the King of Hanzhong did not require the implementation of the world, but only wanted to implement it within the states under his jurisdiction, and did not expect other state patriarchs who were hesitant and doubtful. It can be seen that his heart is in the public and he advocates steady."

Liu Xie nodded without expression, then called Dong Cheng to speak.

Dong Cheng is the most vigilant relationship between generals and Liu Bei in the court today - there is no hostility, it is purely just vigilance, because Liu Bei's force is too strong, which makes Dong Cheng unable to help but suspicion and fear.

So Dong Cheng said tactfully: "The King of Hanzhong's theory is indeed a public official, but it is inevitable that it is a bit... it is hard to understand. If he feels that the states should not set up a provincial governor, why did he rush to let Li Su be transferred to the governor of Yongzhou while Li Su suggests that he will not set up a new provincial governor in the future? Isn't Yongzhou also a state where the mainland does not need to guard against barbarians and foreign enemies, that is also the confidant of the court. If the King of Hanzhong's suggestion, Yongzhou should first set up three envoys."

Unexpectedly, when Dong Chenggang said this, Yang Biao, the Grand Marshal of the Three Dukes, who is the authority of military affairs, refuted: "The General of the Chariot and Cavalry is such a bad statement. How can Yongzhou be said to be a mainland state without guarding against border troubles? Guo Si was in Wudu, confronting the Longshan Mountains with the imperial guards of Anding County, Yongzhou.

I think that the King of Hanzhong continued to set up prefectures in Yongzhou in order to dispatch resources faster and more conveniently to eliminate Guo Si, the remnants of the disaster of the country. Moreover, the Beidi County, Fengyi County and Hetao Zhuhu were not completely wiped out. Since the 5th year of Zhongping, the Hou of Xubugudu rebelled against the Han Dynasty, Yongzhou has long been border troubles, and it is nothing more than that the Xiutu tribes did not really invade in large numbers before."

Yang Biao's words made Dong Cheng's opposition not very tenable. He was just trying to make excuses by trying to make excuses, but it was not strict.

Dong Cheng thought to himself: "Hmph, your son has been the Great Envoy, and he will not come to Luoyang to take office. Instead, he will stay in Chang'an, or send an envoy to Liu Bei. Yang Biao, your unfaithfulness is simply obvious!"

Unfortunately, this is impossible to say, and it will be completely broken up after it is said, so I can only think about it in my heart.

The other two three men did not interrupt much, and Situ Zhao Wen was there to be a peacemaker, advising Dong Cheng and Yang Biao. Cai Yong was a god-like man who said nothing and looked at his eyes and nose. Anyway, the emperor was discussing whether to transfer another provincial governor to his son-in-law, and he should avoid suspicion on this issue.

Liu Xie glanced at the audience and gave Zhu Yan an encouragement look, allowing Zhu Yan to finally play the role of the Dinghai Sword and eliminate the differences between the court.

Zhu Ye didn't want to speak at first, mainly because he was in poor health and had lost his ambitions.

Zhu Ye died in 195, but his death in history was "When Guo Si seized all officials, Zhu Ye was strong and unwilling to die of humiliation." So now without Guo Si's humiliation, he could still walk around.

But after all, he is still in his sixties and his health is not good. In the second half of last year, in order to worry about completely repairing the Luoyang Palace, he ran around himself and often worked overtime to supervise the construction period. In late autumn and early winter, he occasionally felt a cold twice, and his body became weaker and weaker.

Liu Xie asked the imperial physician to see Zhu Jun, but he couldn't say anything at that time, so he just asked Zhu Jun to rest. After he came back, Liu Xie asked the imperial physician privately, asking him not to be afraid of saying the wrong thing and not to avoid being ignorant of the doctor. Then Liu Xie learned that even if Zhu Jun had no other accident, it would have been only two years. Moreover, the cold and fatigue caused Zhu Jun's heart and lungs to be damaged.

From the perspective of modern medicine, the risks of hypertension and heart disease are increasing, and pneumonia transformed by wind and cold are gradually becoming chronic. Of course, the Imperial Doctor must not explain these details, and there were no medical concepts in ancient times.

Since then, Liu Xie has given Zhu Jun the only privilege - he can give him a seat when he goes to court.

At this moment, Zhu Jun saw that he would not have any results if he didn't take action, and the emperor also gave a hint, so he struggled to stand up with his body.

Liu Xie quickly spoke, signaling the eunuch who maintained the order of the court to support him: "The general doesn't have to get up, just sit and reply."

Zhu Jun bowed and sat down again: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the King of Hanzhong's proposal is beneficial to the country. In the long run, it can indeed reduce the separatist position of the border general. As for where he pilots first and where he then pilots, it is not the most important issue at the moment. It is better to continue to do it first. If the effect is good, he can naturally ask him to fully promote it in several states under his jurisdiction.

There are so many states in the world who are unwilling to support this reform. Why should we blame the King of Hanzhong too much? The world is so turbulent, and the royal authority declines. It has been a decade of war and turmoil. It is natural that it cannot be solved overnight. Your Majesty is in full swing in the spring and autumn, so why not praise loyalty and kindness and do it slowly.”

This last sentence touched Liu Xie a lot.

His biggest advantage is that he is young. He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he still has to wait. It is the best to find opportunities to find excuses to run the generals in the world. Anyway, those elders and warlords cannot survive him.

"Since this is the case, I will approve the emperor's uncle's report to the Taichang Qing and draft an order."

After establishing the Three Envoys and transferring Li Su as the governor of Yongzhou, the next issue was to establish the candidates for the Three Envoys of other states that had no states before. This was independent from the previous issue, and one thing was the same and one thing was to be discussed separately.

Liu Bei wanted to split Yizhou into Yizhou and Dianzhou, and then recommend the candidates for the three envoys in Yizhou. Liu Xie no longer asked about these.

However, Liu Bei suggested setting up three envoys in Jiaozhou, which must be discussed by the court. Jiaozhou had the opportunity to set up envoys, but the court did not appoint the governor of Jiaozhou after the killing of Zhang Jin, the governor of Jiaozhou.

Liu Xie: "In another stamp of the emperor, General Zhao Yun of the Emperor, led the defensive envoy of Jiaozhou, and the prefect of Changsha, Lu Su, was the governor of Jiaozhou. He also hoped that the court would cooperate with him and sent another person from the court as the observer of Jiaozhou to witness the effect of the Three Envoys system. Can the counties of Jiaozhou be re-understood under the jurisdiction of the court without fighting and pay tribute to the four seasons according to the old system. The ministers think that Zhao Yun and Lu Su are competent? If they follow his proposal, who will be sent to the inspector. This person must be impartial enough and have a reputation enough to convince the public to supervise the government of Lu Su."

Liu Xie was still very kind to Zhao Yun among the two candidates Liu Bei said. After all, during the Ten Generals Rebellion, Zhao Yun jumped to escape from the bridge to the reunion road from Nangong to Beigong. Zhao Yun rescued him. Liu Xie also observed several times later and found that Zhao Yun was the one who valued righteousness the most among the generals under Liu Bei's tent.

This is different from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have more personal relationships with Liu Bei. Their loyalty is because of their loyalty to Liu Bei. Zhao Yun's loyalty is more pure loyalty is.

Therefore, Liu Xie subconsciously expressed a tendency in his words: if he was sent to observe the inspector, it would also be the one who observed Lu Su, and Zhao Yun would not need to be observed.

The court officials were all smart in their current position. They could also hear the emperor's tendency and did not want to be thankless to be this evil person. After some discussion, Yang Biao, Zhao Wen and Cai Yong reached a unified opinion:

"I have reported to Your Majesty. I believe that each state has three envoys and is above the prefect, and must send important officials of the Nine Ministers from the court to serve as one to show importance. Among the nine ministers, Wang Lang, the current Grand Grand Lu, is in charge of appeaseing all parties and is justified. Before Wang Lang served as Grand Grand Lu, he was the prefect of Kuaiji and understood the affairs of Shanyue in the south. Let him observe Jiaozhou, coordinate Yiyue, and supervise Lusu, which is enough to show the world the public."

Seeing that the opinions in the court were so unified this time, Liu Xie waved his pen and issued an order to let Wang Lang monitor Zhao Yun and Lusu.
