After Dong Zhuo's death, the territory of Han Dynasty was surprisingly peaceful.
Han Emperor Liu Xie was in charge.
The Emperor of the Han Dynasty has been in power for many years, but this is the first time that he has issued a government decree.
Everyone is curious about Liu Xie's governing style.
Fan Li also observed carefully for a period of time and came to the conclusion in five words: Moisturizing things silently.
In the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo had been in power for many years and was like a weak and seriously ill patient.
If you want to cure it, any drastic medicine or medicine will not work.
It cannot withstand heavy tossing, so it can only move slowly and gently to soothe its pain.
And Liu Xie did exactly this.
He took the lead in adopting a vegetarian diet among common people to save government expenses as much as possible.
Seeing this, all the officials followed suit.
As a result, the empty treasury of the Han Dynasty seemed to be less strapped.
Dong Zhuo plundered a lot of private wealth, and Liu Xie ordered people to search the Taishi Mansion and divide the harvest into two parts.
All resources needed for spiritual practice are used to reward meritorious soldiers who participated in the war and to provide compensation for the casualties.
All ordinary property such as gold and silver will be returned to the people.
Liu Xie issued successive imperial edicts to encourage farmers to cultivate mulberry trees, reduce taxes, reduce corvee labor, and promote water conservancy.
Most states and counties in the Han Dynasty finally had a chance to recuperate after Dong Zhuo's death.
The only one who is restless is Liangzhou.
Liangzhou means Xiliang.
In the battle of Chang'an, Dong Zhuo died and the main force of Xiliang was wiped out.
However, there are still several forces in Liangzhou, led by the Han family and the Ma family, who originally obeyed Dong Zhuo's orders.
If Dong Zhuo is the leader of rebels and thieves, Liangzhou should be the den of thieves.
As a result, the news of Dong Zhuo's death reached Liangzhou, and the Ma, Han and other forces became restless.
Rebellion can happen at any time.
Fan Li was very curious. Faced with the hot potato of Liangzhou, how did Liu Xie plan to deal with it?
Collect it for your own use?
Or send troops to quell the rebellion?
To be honest, with Liu Xie's current strength, it is almost impossible for him to fail no matter what he does.
The only question is: How many more people will the big man die?
The answer was soon revealed.
Liu Xie ordered people to prepare a set of coffins containing Dong Zhuo's clothes during his lifetime, and wrote a personal letter and sent Yu Linwei to deliver it to Liangzhou.
In the letter, Liu Xie did not brag, but only told the whole process of Dong Zhuo's failed rebellion in a plain tone, and praised the various ethnic groups in Liangzhou for keeping their own laws and not following Dong Zhuo into rebellion.
Finally, Liu Xie granted hereditary titles to the leaders of each clan and allowed his troops to be permanently stationed in Liangzhou.
There are sticks and sweet dates.
Therefore, when the Yulin Guards returned to Chang'an and resumed their duties, they also brought back joint letters of allegiance from the leaders of various tribes in Liangzhou.
A sword without bloodshed.
"Good means."
In Changle Palace, Fan Li couldn't help but admire after hearing what the princess said.
"It can be seen from this that people who are doing nothing may not necessarily be because of incompetence, but may also be because they have always lacked a stage to display their talents."
"I originally thought that the Emperor of Han was just a middle-aged man, but I didn't expect that he was the leader of ZTE."
After Fan Li finished speaking, the princess giggled.
"In front of me, do you dare to slander my father?"
"Is this considered slander?"
Fan Li rolled his eyes at the princess angrily.
His gaze moved downwards a little further, landing on the princess's slightly bulging belly.
The secret technique of Pure Land is really awesome!
Princess Changle pretended to be pregnant and actually put on a full show, even showing her pregnancy.
"The Taiyuan Hospital couldn't find out that it was fake?" Fan Li couldn't help but said: "In addition to the [Taotie Demonic Skill] and fake pregnancy, how many evil ways do you have in your Sanskrit Pure Land? Have you learned them all?"
When the princess heard this, she smiled again.
"You're laughing!" Fan Li said depressedly: "I'm pregnant in ten months, and when the time comes when I can't give birth, what are you going to do? Tell him the story of Nezha?"
"Ha ha ha ha ha!"
The princess was still smiling.
"Fan Li, are you afraid?"
"My father's tolerance towards you until now is all because of the child in my belly."
"My father said a few days ago that if he wasn't worried about losing his father when his grandson was born, he would really like to eliminate you as a scourge for Xiang Ning's son-in-law."
Fan Li felt a chill running down his back.
Depend on!
What evil things had he done that made Liu Xiefei equate himself with Dong Zhuo?
"There are many types of powerful officials." Fan Li said angrily.
"But all the powerful ministers like to bully the emperor." The smile on the princess's face became even brighter. She seemed to like to see Fan Li embarrassed.
Bullying the emperor?
This is probably a hurdle that Liu Xie will never overcome.
He could bear not to take action against Fan Li, which showed that he really cared about Princess Changle and the 'child' in the princess's belly.
Fan Li never gets any advantage from Princess Changle.
He simply shut up.
Damn it, silence is Cambridge tonight.
Princess Changle also stopped smiling.
There was a rare trace of solemnity on that beautiful cheek.
"Father...he doesn't have much time."
"What!?"
Cambridge collapsed.
Fan Li was silent for only a few seconds before screaming in surprise.
"Didn't he successfully enter the Mahayana realm after Dong Zhuo's battle?"
"As you advance to a greater realm, your longevity should also be improved. Why doesn't he have much time?"
The princess's eyes were lowered, and there was a hint of sadness in her voice.
"Maybe you're right."
"Father, you really only have the appearance of a middle-aged man."
"The price for advancing to the Mahayana realm is my father's entire lifespan. This is not a secret method, it is just an exchange that he completes naturally when his mind enters a certain state."
"The way of heaven is vast and unknowable. Who can know everything and have omnipotence regarding the affairs of practitioners?"
A rare tear slipped down Princess Changle's cheek.
she cried?
This was the first time that Fan Li saw real emotions on Princess Changle's face, instead of the enchanting and charming face she wore in the past.
"The longevity gained from advancing to the Mahayana realm is only enough for my father to support me for another hundred days."
One hundred days? !
Fan Li was shocked!
He had been left in Chang'an by the Han Emperor for two full months.
In other words, in more than a month, Emperor Han will die! ?
"He..." Fan Li felt his throat was a little dry and coughed slightly before continuing: "He only has a life span of 100 days, so what's the point of being so diligent?"
Liu Xie has no sons.
The most outstanding daughter, Princess Changle, can she secure the throne of the Han Dynasty as an empress?
Fan Li pictured the three people in his mind and shook his head.
impossible.
Besides, Changle herself said that she had no interest in big men.
Even if you want to board the Ninth Five-Year Plan, starting a new dynasty or occupying the magpie's nest in Dachujiu are better choices.
In other words, is the Han Dynasty Guo Zuo really coming to an end?
"Easy corvee service, reduce taxes, and return wealth to the people."
"My father worked diligently for a hundred days just to compensate a little for the suffering people of the Han Dynasty."
"My father also admitted that his compensation is nothing compared to the suffering that the people have suffered for many years."
Fan Li was stunned.
Such words could actually come from the mouth of an emperor?
Fan Li merged the memories of his past and present lives. He really couldn't remember any emperor who wanted to let the people live a good life before he died.
It goes without saying that a foolish king abuses his people.
Even if he is a wise king and a holy master, he uses the imperial examination to imprison the people of the world, and uses light corvee and meager taxes to trap the peasants in the fields for life, as long as they do not rebel.
There is no one in ancient times who loves the people as much as Liu Xie...
