The two chatted together for a while and mentioned the future development of the Han Navy. Although Liu Jixing didn't know Yang Jiong's concept of the navy, he still took the opportunity to ask him to have time to review his plan and provide guidance on the key training talents of the navy. Yang Jiong did not refuse, he just said that he would wait for the opportunity.
Liu Jixing didn't urge him, but he was already looking forward to it, not to mention that there were only two Wu Er Wu Sihu and Wu Qi Wu Zhonghan left in the Wu family's eight guards. Needless to say, Wu Sihu is now in charge of Jin Weizhi. This time he sent Wu Zhonghan to do some actions in the green camp. Later, he saw that he had some generals and sent him to assist local generals in training, that is, to see Yang Jiong's face and to train himself. talents needed in the future.
Because the Eight Guards of the Wu Family are indirectly Yang Jiong's registered disciples, no different from his direct disciple Wu Yanrou! Although there are some unique companies that have trained so many talents, Liu Jixing knows that this decision will not be a problem as long as he manages it properly.
Master Tang Chang came out worriedly and called Liu Jixing in. Liu Jixing knew that something was wrong. During this time, Liu Jixing had already gotten to know Master Tang, and Yang Jiong revealed to him that he had a great background, so Liu Sheng did not hide himself.
Then I knew that he was also a disciple of the Maoshan sect, and his master was Luqiu Fangyuan, one of the famous five ancestors of Taoism in modern times. Luqiu Fangyuan had a famous disciple named Nie Shidao, and Nie Shidao had a famous disciple named Wang Qixia, who was known as Mr. Yuan Bo.
Wang Qixia inherited the Shangqing Divine Kung Fu from Nie Shitao Master. She is currently the ten most famous disciple who inherited Shangqing Dafa from Luqiu Fangyuan and is the best one who has carried forward the Shangqing Divine Kung Fu. There were also five famous and outstanding disciples under his sect, known as the Five Masters of Dadong, who were the best in the Jiangnan area for a while.
Master Tang and Nie Shidao were figures of the same generation. Although he was not well-known in the world, he was obviously a very powerful figure. Otherwise, how could Liu Sheng have allowed him to detoxify and live for more than ten years! If Liu Jixing knew Tang Shang's seniority, he would definitely be shocked, because his nephew Wang Qixia's apprentices were all famous Dadong Wuzi in the world.
"Master's Holy Hand! Is His Majesty's condition not good?" Yang Jiong was always grateful and thought that Liu Sheng had met him and almost never left him. Looking at Master Tang's expression, he couldn't help but ask. Master Tang shook his head, "It's hard to say! Your Highness, you'd better go in and have a look yourself!" But he and Yang Jiong stayed outside.
Liu Sheng sat back in the medicine barrel, his face was pale and gloomy, his eyes were sunken. Looking at Liu Jixing, his eyes became brighter, and he stretched out his hand to hold Liu Jixing's hand which was close to the barrel. Liu Jixing felt that his hands were shaking, but he looked at him with a sincere expression. Liu Jixing couldn't help but feel a little sad. Thinking of the kindness he had shown to his son, King Wei, Liu Jixing clenched his hand with some emotion. For the first time, these two nominal father and son were like an ordinary family. Liu Sheng gently touched Liu Jixing's strong hand, his eyes showing both loneliness and surprise!
"Qingnu'er, don't be afraid! I think that when your emperor was your age, he traveled across dozens of states in the south of the Five Ridges, helping Emperor Xiang conquer the world and frighten everyone. My father is very pleased to see the shadow of your emperor in you. Ah! Now no one in the Han Dynasty can threaten your status. Even if your father dies at this moment, you can still be the emperor!" Liu Sheng looked confident and proud, and at this moment, a flash of light seemed to flash across his face. Brilliance.
"My son is not afraid of difficulties, and my father can rest assured to cultivate himself! I have my son and a group of ministers to take care of things in the court, and my father can live among the mountains, rivers, silk and bamboo!" Liu Jixing looked sentimental from the bottom of his heart, as he followed Knowing Liu Sheng, Liu Jixing understood that this butcher in other people's mouths had his own tenderness.
Looking at Liu Sheng's expression, he seemed to be returning to his former glory, thinking that his fatherly love for King Wei was not adulterated at all, but no one around him who was eyeing him was a ghost. How much had he done for his son in order to strengthen and defend those around him?
Liu Jixing was murmuring in his heart. History books said that Liu Sheng died in August. He wouldn't have died half a year earlier just because of his arrival, right? The more I get to know Liu Sheng, the more I realize that he is a tragic figure. In order to consolidate his throne, he killed his brothers and brothers. In order to control the rebellious ministers, he inherited his father's cruelty and castrated almost everyone around him.
Every bit of information about him in history is negative. Liu Jixing knew that the key was that he died too early, before he could achieve results like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he would not have left a legacy of infamy! He also expanded the Han territory by one-third! What's more, in terms of age in his own time, he died too early, less than forty years old! But what's the difference between his appearance now and his appearance when he was fifty or sixty years old!
"You are indeed my good son! Qingnu'er, since Lord Lu passed away, there is almost no one in the court who can take on big responsibilities. Li Yi and his like are just talking on paper and barely maintaining the status quo. You must remember to protect yourself. For the sake of supremacy, now that Tao Zun and the gods are supporting you, you can slowly gather strength, but you must wait for the opportunity to develop. My father, I think what you have done during this period of time is even better than what my father used to do in the past. The arrangements of the border generals are also very reassuring. Now I just want to mention a few things for you to remember!" Liu Sheng stared at Liu Jixing closely, and Liu Jixing nodded!
"Pan Chongche volunteered to serve as an internal minister in the eighth year of Qianhe, so in the twelfth lunar month of the ninth year, his father asked General Xie Guan to lead him to attack Chenzhou. In this expedition, he lived up to expectations and made great achievements, which also proved his military prowess. His talent and fame spread throughout Lingnan, Chu region! At the end of the twelfth lunar month, my father named his daughter his wife!"
He looked at Liu Jixing without any expression, but tightened his hands: "Of course you understand that the emperor doesn't like Mrs. Fang, but why do you still want to welcome her into the palace? Even have a King Gui with her? Because I, a big man, don't have a general who can guard the border! Pan Chongche The heirs around him are still young, but King Gui is the son of his father. Mrs. Fang, you can win over her in the inner palace, and you can also restrain Pan Chongche. Why doesn't your father let him guard the border, but you promote him out as soon as you say that he is the emperor? Because Father, let him be grateful to you! But you must not indulge him in the future!"
Seeing Liu Sheng's eyes that seemed to open and close, Liu Jixing felt a little ashamed. Not only did he climb onto Pan Yulian's bed, but he also summoned Pan Jinlian over. Didn't Liu Sheng know about this? Liu Jixing couldn't help but look at Yang Jiong, the spy leader, with admiration. He was obviously approaching him, and there were many things about him that Liu Sheng didn't know.
Maybe he could hide it from Gong Chengshu, but he definitely couldn't hide it from Yang Jiong's eyes. Although he knew that his behavior in the palace was careful, he definitely couldn't hide it from Liu Sheng. Although many servants knew that the overall situation was decided and were moving closer to him, Liu Sheng He is not dead yet, he is still the emperor, and many people are still working for him, so they have no choice but to return in a deep voice: "My lord, please remember this!"
"Qu Ju has never been evil and loyal, but he is the prince of Jiaozhou after all. He can be used to conquer Jiaozhou and Southwest, but he cannot be allowed to rule the southwest for a long time. At the same time, he must manage the southwest with civilians, just like what you are doing now The measures are general, to expand the influence and prestige of the royal family among the people! Wynn has been spending a lot of time in the palace these years, and his father knows that he is also loyal. What's more, although he is alone, he has several adopted sons, but none of them are born by himself. You can Have them stationed in the southeast! If Qu Ju has great ambitions, he can have them pacify the southwest and then join Huai'en to take the Chu territory directly!"
Liu Sheng was worthy of being a good man, and he was extremely cautious. Liu Jixing felt a little emotional. However, due to the feudal power struggle and the chaos of warlords like the Five Dynasties, Liu Sheng's actions still made sense!
This is the same as the replacement of military region chiefs in later generations. What's more, Liu Jixing is taking this path now, to build the army into the Liu family's army and educate the army into the country's army. Therefore, like later generations, Liu Jixing trained many quick instructors. Every city, every team or even every corps assigned to the grassroots level has the same deputies to brainwash soldiers, and they are producing positive results in units at all levels. According to first-hand information reported by Jin Weizhi and the secret party, those officers at all levels who refused to brainwash and sabotage Liu Jixing's measures were either secretly executed or his misdeeds were exposed. In any case, it was to return the hearts of these soldiers to the position of defending the country and homeland. Come!
Liu Sheng may have seen Liu Jixing's achievements before completely handing over Jinwei under Yang Jiong's control to Liu Jixing. Of course, he must have also seen the achievements of those nerds sent out to land reform and resettlement of refugees. This is what is stable and strong. premise. These cadres, who will only be produced in later generations, are playing an endless role by appearing in advance at this moment!
"My father reminds me that my son has this intention. In the past three to five years, I will steadily strengthen the capabilities of the army, and then develop it first to the southwest and then to the Chu region. And with the whole government working together, I am confident that in the three years, Conquer Shu within this year!" Thinking of the historical strategy of the Song Dynasty after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the comfort and corruption in Shu today, Liu Jixing was naturally ambitious and confident!
Liu Sheng was shocked after hearing this. Looking at Liu Jixing's childish face in front of him, his thoughts couldn't help boiling. He knew that his son was no longer the son he knew. Feeling the changes in Liu Jixing in the past few months, he I felt sad and excited at the same time.
The two father and son were chatting carefully about the future of the big man in this room!
The Xifang of the Imperial City of Prince Xing's Mansion, because it is adjacent to the Changhua Palace in the Xiyuan of the Imperial Palace, is home to a large number of mansions of famous families. Huai'enfang is one of the most famous residences in Xifang, and the tallest and brightest mansion in Huai'enfang is the residence of the Han Dynasty's founder, Sinong Qing, Huai'an Hou Zhoujie. The Marquis of Huai'an was still an old minister who was highly valued in the hands of Emperor Xiang of the Han Dynasty. He was even more treated with great courtesy in the hands of Emperor Gaozu. Now the Marquis of Huai'an has passed away for many years, but the descendants of the Zhou family have continued to live here under the title.
After decades of favor, the descendants of the Zhou family have flourished, and there are already several houses with a population of about 200 people, plus the gang of servants, there are hundreds of people. It seems that it is already a big family of the Han Dynasty, and this does not include the people from the side families of Huai'an Hou.
When the lanterns come on, Huai'enfang is the most crowded time of the day. There are people walking, hawking, and various stalls on the streets. Because Prince Xing's Mansion did not deliberately separate markets like Chang'an City, such markets can be seen everywhere. It's just that no one dared to sell in the distance in front of the prince's gate. They were far away from the gate and doing business on the nearby streets. Each house didn't chase these people away, which was very convenient. People in the government buy it.
On this day, suddenly several groups of fully armed guards surged out from all directions with mighty force, completely surrounding the Zhou Mansion.
For a moment, pedestrians gave way one after another. Watching from a distance, these guards guarded the door of Zhou's mansion, and some people rushed through the door and rushed in. Then I heard chickens and dogs jumping up and down in Zhou's mansion, and there were sounds of crying and yelling, which soon turned into scolding. Finally, I saw that the servants of the Zhou Mansion were tied up with ropes one by one. They were formed into a team like a gourd and were led out by the murderous guards.
The sharp-eyed people nearby did not notice the master of the Zhou family. For a while, neighbors and acquaintances watched helplessly, wondering what happened to the Duke's house! However, in the more than ten years since the emperor's reign, the Xingwang Mansion has raided many houses, and everyone has become accustomed to it, but it has been relatively rare in the past few years.
After a while, I saw a young general coming on horseback from another road. He came with an imperial edict in his hand. He said it loudly in front of the Zhou Mansion. After everyone heard it, they knew the reason.
It turned out that the third son of the Zhou family, named Zhelun, was not only a traitor to the enemy but also a traitor to the country, and colluded with the catty thieves to enter the palace and assassinate him. Now he was arrested in the palace together with the catty thieves. This was a major crime against the nine clans, and everyone was in an uproar.
The young general led the personal guards directly into the inner hall of the Zhou Mansion. He seemed to be very familiar with this place. He was tightly guarded along the way, and there were soldiers searching back and forth.
Today is Mrs. Zhou's birthday. All her family members, young and old, are here, as well as many close relatives and friends. Hundreds of people in the hall are watching. After a confrontation, some of the important family members of the Zhou family's direct and side branches were guarded in the hall, and these guests were watched in the courtyard.
Some of the captains and soldiers had already separated the men and women into two sides. The Zhou family knew something was wrong when they saw this posture. However, the decades of stable life in Prince Xing's Mansion had made it impossible for anyone in the family to stand alone.
Of course, Zhou Zhelun and the others, who had caused bad things for the family, had gone. Most of the second-generation descendants of the Zhou family had official titles, and they were all kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed.
The young general took another imperial edict and walked through the courtyard into the inner hall. There were already cries in the hall.
The imperial edict was read out as usual, and the general idea was that Zhou Zhelun collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and had people enter the palace for assassination. The emperor remembered the past merits of the Marquis of Huai'an and sentenced all the men in the Zhou family who were over ten years old to death, and all the family members were made into official slaves. Of course, all the young women were Act as a prostitute! Before I finished reading the imperial edict, I fainted and burst into tears!
The young general watched quietly, surrounding the unconscious Tai Fu, the bunch of Zhou family members. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers behind him tied up the men of the Zhou family, checking their identities one by one. A tooth general behind him saw him looking at the family members, and couldn't help but whisper: "General Zhi, do you want to invite your Miss Zhou family out!"
The young general looked back at him and said calmly: "Do you think this imperial edict was issued by His Majesty alone? It was the Crown Prince's personal edict to summon me to the palace! I have known him for more than ten years, and he has always known that I and The Zhou family is marrying at the fingertips, why did he ask me to come? Besides, Colonel Guo Jing from the Green Camp is also here, what do you want me to do?" General Ya was immediately frightened and broke into a cold sweat, and his teeth started to tremble!
"He is no longer the King Wei that he was back then! He is no longer the young slave who only knows how to kill people for fun! He is the person with the greatest power in the Han Dynasty now! For the sake of the Han Dynasty, he can give up any family, let alone the Zhi family! "The young general muttered to himself.
Jingjing looked at the family members and said softly: "Besides, he can send a seventh-grade captain to be an assistant to a certain family. If you want to say it well, it means that he values a certain family. If it sounds bad, it means that I can use it for him. ! This young master also had a very good relationship with him that day. Look at the result now, it’s not just treason!”
"Brother Zhi, Brother Zhi!" Someone among the male relatives finally recognized the young general, and a childish voice sounded.
The young general saw that he was a twelve- or thirteen-year-old boy with bright eyes and fair skin. At this time, he looked at the young general nervously, and his face turned pale with fear. According to his height, he was going to be executed. He made many family members of the Zhou family look over, and many of them recognized him. The young general gave a bitter smile.
Among the female relatives, a delicate-looking girl stood up and looked at the young general blankly. The soldiers on the side did not scold her. Tears welled up in her eyes and she murmured: "Why? It's you! Why? It's you! Shichiro!"
The young general was stunned for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Yu'e! Zhelun has caused a big disaster this time, which has affected the entire Zhou family. A certain family will definitely go to the palace to intercede with the saints!" It turns out that this young general is called Zhi Tingxiao. , and Zhou Yu'e, a young lady from the Zhou family, were originally engaged, but to his surprise, the prince sent him to search the house. Seeing this, he wanted to turn around and run out immediately.
Before the young lady could speak, she saw Guo Jing leading a few guards in! Guo Jingqi looked upright and upright. He performed outstandingly in the tasks issued by the Green Camp and was talented in literature. The most important thing was that he was appreciated by Wu Zhonghan and was directly recommended to the prince Liu Jixing.
What's more, Liu Jixing has known him since the beginning, because the last operation uncovered an important clue. Wu Zhonghan has been promoted to the Zhaowu Colonel at the sixth rank, and Guo Jing is already the Zhiguo Colonel at the seventh rank, and has been promoted to seven levels in a row. !
Moreover, because Du Yuhou Shishao wanted to strengthen the palace guard, he had already established a guard camp in front of the palace according to Liu Jixing's wishes. Guo Jing was lucky enough to join with several Green Camp soldiers. Guo Jing not only upgraded one after another but also got closer to the prince. This time, he was favored by the prince to assist Zhi Tingxiao.
Guo Jing had heard that Zhi Tingxiao was the prince's playmate when he was still a prince, and Zhou Zhelun was the prince's friend when he was King Wei, but Guo Jing also knew that the prince was the future emperor. Guo Jing would not deliberately flatter anyone, but because his family was almost wiped out when he came to Lingnan, and he had received a great favor from the Han court, he only wanted to repay the court and the prince, so he followed the prince's ideas without hesitation.
What's more, after joining the army, he was promoted almost continuously, and he was promoted like a rocket. The respect he received made him have to go all out.
He also heard that Zhi Tingxiao was the future uncle of the Zhou family, so he arranged for the guests from the outside, and he also came in to see what Zhi Tingxiao did! Because although Liu Jixing didn't ask him to monitor Zhi Tingxiao when he arrived, he did ask him to see his reaction.
Zhi Tingxiao knows many of these people in the lobby. He is not selfish but he is also very nostalgic. However, he knows what crime the Zhou family committed. If he had been married to a Miss Zhou family, he would definitely be beheaded too. In the team, the reason why they said this was to comfort people like the Zhou family.
Seeing Guo Jing coming in, Zhi Tingxiao felt a little weak, waved his hand and strode out, leaving Zhou Yu'e standing there blankly, crying for a while!
It is said that Zhou Zhelun was convicted of treason and collaborating with the enemy on this day, and the Hou Mansion was noisy all night. The people around him did not dare to rest. They hid in the cracks of the door and watched the house being ransacked. They watched each person being led out, the man. They all put on the shackles of the women, and then the Marquis of Huai'an of the Zhou family disappeared from the stage of Prince Xing's Mansion.
Gao Siming looked at the winding stone road in front of him, nodded slightly to the child standing beside him, and said softly: "Senior, are you here?"
The boy, who was only about ten years old with bright and bright teeth, looked at Gao Siming's bright eyes and said with a smile: "Sir, you just came back from His Highness. Knowing that the young master has been waiting for a long time, he specially asked me to take him over!"
"Thank you!" Gao Siming was polite and polite. Although he had been waiting for a whole afternoon, he was not impatient at all. He had even been revered as King Xiao Ming for many years. His family was also in the spotlight in Dali, but in front of this man, Gao Siming had no trace of impatience. pride!
Along the rugged stone road, Gao Siming even looked forward to it. The person he wanted to see was one of the five and a half people he wanted to see in Prince Xing's Mansion. He had been coming to Prince Xing's Mansion for a long time, and Gao Siming could not see him until today. It’s not that this person is not easy to meet, or that Gao Siming is too busy, it’s just that the time has not come yet!
Gao Siming has been studying with his master for eighteen years. He has long been regarded as a proud man, but he is also a leader among the younger generation. He understands that masters in the world of martial arts take the lead in cultivation. If they reach a certain level, they will already have transcended fame and fortune, and will always be comprehending the true meaning of life! Just like his master Ming Wang, although he knew that his family was suppressing other families, he would no longer interfere.
The five and a half people in Prince Xing's Mansion who are worthy of meeting are naturally the Ghost Hand Shiwu, the Tyrant Sword Pan Chongche, the Sick Tiger and the Mad Lion Yang Jiong, the Emperor Liu Sheng, and the other one is Cheng Yuan who has the golden body of Master Wen Yan. As for that half of the people, they are naturally Tao Zun Shi Zhenren who I don’t know if they can see.
But now that Pan Chongche is not in Prince Xing's Mansion, and Emperor Liu Sheng is invisible to the outside world, Gao Siming has changed his mind, because Guishou Shiwu has a relationship with Prince Ming, and Yang Jiong is not a problem. What's more, something unexpected happened now. This person agreed to see him, so this person was now ranked first. As for the other half, he was changed to Prince Liu Jixing.
Due to family reasons, Gao Siming himself cannot give up and stay away from the worldly world, but he has an unparalleled master, and his platform will always be higher than others. It is also because he has a master who is unparalleled in the world. He knows that there are countless capable people in the world, so he has always been modest and cautious! Even in front of a child! Because this kid has a master who is as powerful and legendary as his master!
Passing through a bamboo forest, I saw a row of wooden single-door courtyards, which were surrounded by a low fence. The fence was planted with plum and rhododendrons unique to Lingnan, and the colors were particularly enchanting.
The child stopped entering when he reached the gate of the fence, leaving Gao Siming to walk in slowly. Gao Siming walked slowly inside. When he saw the door open, he walked in without stopping.
Xia Qinghou sat barefoot on a low wooden stool, with a pile of thin bamboos on the small table in front of him. He didn't say hello when he saw Gao Siming coming in, but gave a rare smile and held a handful in his right hand. A thick, unedged dagger, holding a piece of bamboo in his left hand.
Gao Siming said nothing, gave a slight salute, and then stood respectfully three meters away from the small table, quietly watching the non-stop movements of Xia Qinghou's men, and he did not dare to disturb them.
Xia Qinghou quietly looked at Gao Siming in front of him for a while, without speaking or getting up. He was still breaking the bamboos into pieces and some thin poles, and then used a razor knife to break the bamboo pieces into thin pieces. A piece as thin as paper. His workers kept weaving bamboo poles as supports and bamboo slices as surfaces, and soon they had woven a prototype of a basket. He was concentrating on making the basket in his hands, and did not look at Gao Siming again.
Gao Siming stood there with his hands behind his back, quietly watching Xia Qinghou weaving a bamboo basket, without making a sound or expression. He watched several bamboo pieces swinging in Xia Qinghou's hands, and then added bamboo baskets. The pieces were knitted again, and gradually a bamboo basket of more than a foot size slowly took shape. It was exquisite and compact, just like the ones sold in the market.
Xia Qinghou looked at the bamboo basket in his hand, looked up at Gao Siming, then put the small plantains and yellowish wild mangosteens on the table into it, and said with a smile: "The fruits from Prince Xing's Mansion and elsewhere It’s quite different. Young Lord Marquis can take these fresh fruits back to Dali and give them to Prince Ming to try!”
"Senior, Siming would like to thank you on behalf of Master! I will personally bring my wishes to you!" Gao Siming took the bamboo basket without saying anything else and slowly withdrew. He turned around respectfully when he reached the door, his expression unchanged. Walk away and never look back.
Xia Qinghou always had a smile on his face, looking at Gao Siming's behavior, there was more approval in his eyes!
From the time he came in to the time he left, Gao Siming didn't explain his purpose, and Xia Qinghou didn't ask Gao Siming. Everything seemed to be unspoken.
Xia Qinghou looked at the light rain outside the door, but there was a smile on his lips, and he murmured: "In addition to those few, there seems to be another interesting person in Prince Xing's Mansion! Peacock! Peacock, Qinghou is looking forward to seeing you in the past ten years. What heights have you reached! These people coming to Prince Xing’s Mansion will let your disciples prove your vision!"
Gao Siming looked back at the dim wooden house that was gradually disappearing, his eyes were particularly bright, and he said silently in his heart: "His whole person seems to be integrated with the surroundings. He is indeed a peerless master of the same height as the master! This time, the Xingwang Mansion The journey is destined to be wonderful! Prince Xing’s Mansion, I will let you remember me, Gao Siming!”
