When the wind and clouds passed, Liu Yan looked at Lu Zheng, whose hair was as white as snow, recalling Lu Zheng's gentle touch just now, and felt as warm as midsummer in his heart.
The mountains and rivers are picturesque, the four seasons are distinct, and above the temples, there are distinctions between emperors and ministers.
Since the teacher became Prime Minister Lu, the teacher’s hands are like those of a father! I haven’t touched my shoulders and back for many years!
Thinking of this, Liu Yan's heart was flooded with thoughts.
...
More than ten years ago, twenty-eight aristocratic families wreaked havoc in the capital. Dozens of aristocratic families, large and small, gathered hundreds of thousands of troops in Chang'an City. They fought fiercely and fiercely all day and night, leaving behind mountains of corpses. Like the blood-red city wall and the helpless Emperor Liu Yan.
When the twenty-eight major families who had attached themselves to the eldest prince forced Liu Yan to appoint the eldest prince as the crown prince, at that moment all Liu Yan's ambitions were crushed into dust. He wanted to retire to the mountains and forests, he wanted to abdicate the throne in favor of someone more worthy, and he even Thoughts of death.
That night, it was a cold and windy night. Accompanied by a few eunuchs, Emperor Liu Yan walked on the Zhuque Street filled with corpses. The strong smell of blood continued to flow into his nostrils, stimulating his nerves and challenging his incompetence. The power of the emperor.
The veins on his hands are bulging, he is confused, his face is ashen, and he has no branches to rely on. All the forces he has supported since he came to the throne were destroyed overnight, how can anyone not feel sad.
Just when Liu Yan was about to sink into the sea, his mentor Lu Zheng, who had been living in seclusion for many years, returned to Weiyang Palace with a lantern to welcome the lost emperor.
That night, like an old father, Lu Zheng, who had gray hair on his temples, gently patted Liu Yan to sleep and stayed by the bedside all night.
Time has passed, and to this day, Liu Yan still deeply remembers the lantern as dazzling as the sun that night and Lu Xiang's arms as solid as a mountain.
...
Following Lu Zheng's slight cough, Liu Yanmeng returned to the world.
"Your Majesty, for a country to take root, it needs at least three generations of wise kings to work hard, and only then can it win the hearts of the people, straighten out the yin and yang, and be able to conquer the world."
Lu Zheng and Liu Yan looked northwest together, with calm expressions on their faces, and said leisurely, "The Qin Dynasty in the north is a descendant of the Xiongnu. They have lived in grass and grass for hundreds of years. If they want to change the state of the country at once and change their herding to farming, it is definitely not something that can be accomplished overnight. Besides, as long as You don't have to be a fool to figure out that although Da Qin has tried to strengthen centralization in recent years, the states and counties still maintain a loose tribal state. The Eight Pillars of Da Qin are clearly warlords who split the soil and enfeoffed lords. As long as the Da Qin royal family has no power, no one else will If you fan the flames, these eight families will soon fall out. The Great Qin Court can see these two points more clearly than you and I, master and disciple."
"Teacher, have you ever thought that Fu Yi has been advocating going south to attack me all these years? Could it be that this bastard wants to divert trouble eastward and use an unprecedented battle to weaken the Eight Pillar Kingdom?" Liu Yan looked sideways. Lu Zheng looked serious, "If this is the case, then Fu Yi's plan is really outrageous!"
"Haha! This is unknown. However, the old minister predicts that within twenty years, Fu Yi will only dare to touch the border and will not go south in a big way." Lu Zheng finally set the tone, and his words gradually became sonorous, " The Qin Dynasty does not have the strength to raise a large number of troops, and Fu Yi does not have the courage. He does not dare to use the country as a bet to weaken the eight pillar countries!"
"Thirty thousand miles east of the river flows into the sea, and five thousand miles
The sky is high in the mountains. Liu Yan groaned without any illness and sighed softly, "It seems that I will have regrets in this life!" "
"So, your majesty can take this opportunity to slowly carve up the flesh of those noble families and live with the people. After the noble families lie down, with the national power of Great Qin and your majesty's dragon and jade majesty, they are naturally no match for my mighty man."
Having said this, Lu Zheng paused, smiled and admonished, "Your Majesty, you and the Great Qin King Fu Yi are of similar age, and the situations they face are almost the same. So, who can win or lose, in the end, will it depend on one?" Where is the word "Shou"?"
Lu Zheng's words woke up the dreamer. Liu Yan was startled for a moment, and suddenly laughed loudly. After the laughter, he narrowed his eyes again, "Teacher, sometimes, the real hero is the one who lives longer. I want to compete with Fu Yi. Let’s compete to see who can live longer!”
"Haha! Your Majesty is a saint." Lu Zheng rubbed his hands together, closed his eyes and said slowly after a while, "If your Majesty needs it, our Jiuquan Lu family is willing to take the lead in setting an example and respond to Pingtian, through fire and water. No excuses."
"When there was great chaos, I had no one to see or see me around. It was you, teacher, who held the lantern and lit up my way back to the palace. You accompanied me all the way for more than ten years. You worked hard and never complained, and you were public-minded."
The breeze blew through Liu Yan's bun, and he lowered his head and said, "So, although the Lu family that the teacher belongs to also participated in the chaos that year, I never bear any grudge against the teacher."
Lu Zheng's eyes suddenly turned red, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"By the way! Teacher, Quzhou has been very lively recently. Should we do something about Aizhou and Liuzhou?" Liu Yan changed the subject and asked urgently like a child, "There is also the matter of the national sports policy. It’s time to find some time
Day, has it been agreed upon together? With so much procrastination, when will it be done? "
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious! As the old saying goes, you have to eat one bite at a time and do things one by one. If you do it too hastily, you will suffer chaos." Lu Zheng curled his long-lasting eyebrows and said dullly, "More than forty years ago , the unprecedented battle between the Qin and Han Dynasties, hundreds of tribes from the Central Plains went to the south of the Yangtze River, and coupled with the original aristocratic families, the situation in Liuzhou is probably more difficult to control than in Quzhou. If one of them is not good, I am afraid it will ruin His Majesty's heart! As for Aizhou, now It’s even better not to act rashly, otherwise, I’m afraid it will give the Piaoyue Kingdom in the south an opportunity to take advantage of!”
In front of Lu Zheng, Liu Yan was like a child. When he saw that nothing made sense, he eagerly asked another matter, "What about the big policy of redefining the country?" () ()
"As for the great strategy of this country." Lu Zheng shook his head, "I think that since the world is not at peace, it is not appropriate to cause trouble among the various families. The time has not come yet."
"Oh my teacher!" Liu Yan looked displeased and clapped his hands, "The year before last it was not the right time, last year it was not the right time, and this year it is... When will this end? "
Lu Zheng didn't answer, but pouted at the foot of the mountain, "Your Majesty, your guest is here!"
Liu Yan smiled helplessly and straightened his bun, "You're pretending to be sick, you're making up stories, you're hiding it from your mother and the world, and you've gone through so much effort to get here, don't let it go in vain!"
Lu Zheng said with a smile, "Your Majesty is not pretending to be ill. Your Majesty is really ill. Your dragon body is getting worse. You can no longer work so hard. I hope you remember the essence of the word 'longevity' that the old minister just said!"
Liu Yan nodded slightly in response.
Lu Zheng shook his head helplessly, and he followed Liu
Under Yan's gaze, Lu Zheng, an old man with pale ancient appearance, fair hair and rosy face, frowned, and a green light glowed under the peach wood staff, showing his murderous intent, "Your Majesty, even though you have decided to change the history of the two of them, you will cherish the good times of the past." Rules. If the people coming are not to your Majesty’s liking, I will not let them go down the mountain!”
...
Under the low mountain, a tall, heroic man was coming with a gun.
Within a hundred steps behind him, a man wearing a light fur hat and carrying a brilliant Zhangba snake spear on his back followed leisurely behind the man with the gun. The two of them walked one behind the other, walking steadily and sonorously. Powerful, anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that the two of them are masters among masters.
The man with the gun was the first to come up the mountain. When he saw Liu Yan, he rolled his eyes and hesitated. Finally, he gently put the gentian silver gun in his hand that shocked the world a hundred years ago, and knelt down to hold the ceremony. , said, "Zhen Dingbo Zhao Yuhai, pay homage to your majesty, your majesty will live forever."
Liu Yan slowly moved his head, not looking at the person at first, but carefully looking at the Gentian Silver Spear.
The shape of this gun is sharpened, the tip is sharp, and the barrel is slender. Even if it is held in the hand without moving, it can still give people a feeling of flexibility and fierceness like a poisonous snake. At the beginning of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, who were always brave, relied on their This gun can kill all over the world.
Seeing this, Liu Yan couldn't help but wonder: his own Swallowing Hongjian Jianghu weapon list ranks first, so naturally this is more gimmick than substance. But such a magic gun in front of me was actually ranked thirty-eight in the weapon spectrum by Jianghu people. Is it true that there are so many treasures in the world?
After looking at the treasures, Liu Yan clicked his tongue, turned around and looked at Zhao Yuhai for a while, and then the man in a light fur coat and bamboo hat also came up the mountain.
After the ceremony, they helped the two of them up together and said with a smile, "Zhao Yuhai, Zhang Xuanqiao, haha. More than a hundred years ago, I, Emperor Zhaolie, promoted Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong to the rank of Five Tiger Generals. , I took a look today, and it turns out that the tiger father has no dog sons, and the two descendants of the Five Tigers are really heroic."
Speaking of Zhao Yuhai, this person is the great-great-grandson of Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, one of the Five Tiger Generals. He belongs to the lineage of Zhao Yun's second son, Zhao Guang. In the past, the Han Dynasty lost control, Kyushu was divided, and the Three Kingdoms were in dispute. Zhao Yun's eldest son, Zhao Tong, died in battle, and the world was unified. Later, Zhao Guang was granted the title Zhen Dinggong on behalf of his brother. With the enactment of the favor order again, in Zhao Yuhai's generation, Zhen Dinggong became Zhen Dingbo. Judging from the title alone, he was already humble and could no longer be promoted. Humbled.
There are three brothers in the Zhao family. The eldest is the head of the Zhao family, Zhao Yuhai, who is in charge of Fanggu County; the second brother, Zhao Yuyuan, is the current Shaofu and holds a high position of authority; the third brother, Zhao Yuguang, is Liu Quansheng's old friend and spends some time at the office. When I am free, I am at home, raising flowers and trees to serve as a counselor.
Zhao Yuhai never fought or competed with anyone except for going out every year to give Jiang Feng a shot. However, there are rumors in the world that Zhao Yuhai himself is in the realm of immortality, is good at using gentian and silver spears, and has mastered the essence of the Hundred Birds Chaofeng spear technique passed down from Zhao family's ancestors. In the past few decades, the three Zhao brothers, one civil and one military, have decided that although the Zhao family in Fanggu County is not among the eight aristocratic families in Quzhou, it has made the Jiang family, who has been watched by the commander Fang Gujun for many years, unable to take action. It can be seen that The Zhao family is very powerful in Fanggu County.
As for Zhang Yuhai standing next to Zhao Yuhai, it is a tragic past.
As the descendants of the unparalleled warrior Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, the Zhang family did not return to their hometown with honors, but
At the command of Emperor Xiaoren Liu Chan, he followed the army south and took root in Luling County at that time. He led his troops to frighten the Jiangnan aristocrats headed by Gu Lu and Zhang Zhu. During this period, Yide's son Zhang Bao and his grandson Zhang Zuncheng were loyal, angry, and as mighty as tigers. Although they made great contributions to the country, they were hostile to hundreds of tribes in the south of the Yangtze River. Especially when the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty were competing for hegemony, Emperor Shenwu Liu Chen had no time to go south. Gu, the Zhang family was suppressed in every possible way and was almost wiped out.
A few years ago, the current emperor Liu Yan reorganized the nine states, Luling County was renamed Longnan County, and Xinxing County, where the Zhang family is located, was also renamed Batu County.
A thousand people have a thousand words. In the eyes of the Batu people, after Zhang Diewu, the daughter of the Zhang family, entered the palace to serve as a saint and had a son, she was ostracized and framed by all the tribes in the south of the Yangtze River, and was oppressed to a desperate situation. In desperation, the Zhang family began to Contacted the Empress Dowager's family, the Mianyang Guo family, and tried to use the second prince as the basis to rise again.
Unexpectedly, God's will played a trick on people, and the temple failed to make a plan. When the capital was in turmoil, the Zhang family was slaughtered. Zhang Diewu's younger brother, Zhang Xuanqiao, was obsessed with martial arts and traveled to the Western Regions all year round, ignoring the turmoil in the officialdom. With Liu Yan's special instructions, he was saved from death. .
Zhang Xunqiao was away from home all year round, and it was not until this year that he achieved great mastery in martial arts and entered immortality that he returned to the Han Dynasty.
These two people are not good friends!
