However, only time will tell whether everything is as it is now.
However, Liu Hong really believed in the Liu clan at this time.
Compared with those fawning eunuchs, the greedy relatives who press every step of the way, and the noble clans who are constantly trying to control everything, the Liu family's children can be trusted more.
In troubled times, he knew that the Han Dynasty had reached a very dangerous situation.
The power controlled by those nobles and relatives has vaguely exceeded his! Although he has the final say, if he abuses it, the consequences will be serious.
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
Of course, others did not dare to abuse their power, because the power of the Han Dynasty was imperfect. Once used, the karma of its birth would not be offset by the fate of the country, but would be borne by the person himself. More or less, it depends on the situation.
Liu Hong squinted his eyes slightly, and a piece of information that had been reported recently came to mind: the Yuan family united with the Wang family, the Wei family, and others to target Lin Mu and plot against Lin Mu.
As the emperor, he also knew that Lin Mu had used Longting's authority...
The alien Lin Mu's use of authority was also one of those guys' plans.
"Foreigners... are protected by heaven, and they can establish territories at will. Many people envy this. If I can do this, what will happen to those nobles!" Liu Hong was secretly envious in his heart.
He was envious of many of the stranger's gifts from heaven.
"Your Majesty, let me speak frankly. The noble families at this time have seriously threatened your Majesty's authority. Some things have been done extremely well and should be treated with great dignity!" Liu Yan continued to add fuel to the fire.
Everyone vaguely knew what those nobles were doing behind the scenes. But that’s for the lineage sitting in that position. Other branches of the Liu family have been prosperous, and some princes even have more than a hundred sons!
"Yes! In fact, officials from all over the country have secretly supported their own troops. For example, the alien Lin Mu, the regiment under his command has exceeded a certain warning range, and his power to open a government and establish teeth needs to be severely... restricted. ." Sect leader Liu Yu said slowly.
Liu Yu originally said that he would be punished severely, but he knew that Lin Mu was currently His Majesty's celebrity and a hero and general in China, so he said it lightly.
For Liu Yu, a good old man, to say this, General Zhengdong must have also come into their sight.
"Your Majesty, Lin Mu, the General of the East Conquest, is rumored to have taken control of Kuaiji County. He has long controlled the troops in various cities. If he has second thoughts, Jiangdong will be in danger!" Liu Yao said loudly.
In fact, the matter of Lin Mu's control of Kuaiji County was mentioned by officials in court very early, but unfortunately there was no response.
The nobles of Kuaiji County had no reaction, and they had no conflict of interest with the officials of Longting and the man sitting on top, so they would not take any action because of this. Those were some people who deliberately attacked Lin Mu. This kind of thing is often seen in the court, especially by eunuchs such as Zhang Rang. They mention it once every three days and once every ten days. They must be impeached at every court meeting.
If something really happened, even a hundred Zhang Rang would not be enough to kill him.
"Your Majesty, the clan ministers have objections. Lin Mu is a different person. He is different from others. He is even at odds with the Yuan family and others, which has two advantages for our Liu family. There are serious bandits in various places, and the so-called family generals of the gentry There are more and more customers, and this is the real disaster." A middle-aged man stood up and said forcefully.
This person is obviously Liu Biao, after Liu Yu, King Gong of Lu in the Western Han Dynasty.
More than nine feet tall, with a gentle and majestic appearance, Liu Biao was well-known in the world when he was young and was ranked among the "Eight Talents". He looked upright.
Although Liu Hong is not a person of good looks, seeing that he has such appearance, coupled with some merits and status, there is a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
If Lin Mu were here, he would be surprised why Liu Biao actually supported him.
"Furthermore, His Majesty's strategy of reviving the Han Dynasty and promoting foreigners is a sage way in the eyes of ministers. Using foreigners to check and balance the gentry is an important help." Liu Biao expressed his opinion.
It turned out that Liu Biao also valued Yiren very much.
"As long as we control it within a certain range, aren't the resources and wealth of strangers our resources and wealth?"
"Even Lin Mu, the most powerful alien at the moment, isn't he also our Liu family's young charge general?" Liu Biao said slowly.
These words made everyone's hearts freeze. For him, there are many strangers, and he has received gifts from heaven and earth. Although he does not know how long this gift will last, it is still a force that cannot be ignored.
Look down on it, look down on it, even a dog has the role of looking after the home and the courtyard!
"Your Majesty, strange people are a strange number. They are unpredictable and cannot be promoted. This is a disaster!" The good old man Liu Yu objected strongly.
After that, everyone started to argue about the alien's views.
This made Liu Yan, who had a clear purpose, secretly hate it. Of course, they also resented Lin Mu. After all, he was so outstanding that everyone began to consider the alien's ability and importance.
If Lin Mu was as mediocre as other strangers, and even if he bought an official position, he was just a prefect of a county, then such a thing would not have happened. His state pastoral system may be finalized!
As expected by Liu Yan, this discussion on the state pastoral system came to nothing.
After the clan meeting dispersed, Liu Yan walked out of the hall with a gloomy face, left the palace, and returned to the mansion.
In the mansion, an old man with a ruddy face and black hair was sitting in the lobby.
Why is this man said to be an old man? Because his eyebrows and beard are both silver-white, and wrinkles can also be seen in some subtle places on his face. That shiny black hair is quite peculiar.
When the old man saw Liu Yan walking in angrily, a bright light appeared in his deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Lord Taichang, why are you so angry?" the old man asked slowly.
"Hmph! Are there any results today?" Liu Yan said bitterly.
After that, he told this person everything about the clan meeting. This shows Liu Yan's trust in him.
"Mao'an, you can become a prophecy () Wei family because of my help. Can you tell my fortune again?"
"Lord Taichang, it is your destiny to become the shepherd of this state, and you have the appearance of competing for the emperor!"
When Liu Yan heard this, he was shaken all over. Originally, he wanted to lead Jiaozhou Mu as a place to avoid disaster and watch the great changes in the world.
However, by chance, he got to know the person in front of him, and by chance, he helped him become a real prophet.
It was with this person's encouragement that he changed his choice.
Don’t choose Jiaozhou, choose Yizhou!
Liu Yan conquered Yizhou, was he strong? powerful!
He had Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, Fazheng, Wu Yi, Huang Quan, Wu Ban, Li Yan, Meng Da and other civil servants and generals. In addition, Yizhou territory is known as the land of abundance.
The troops are strong and the horses are strong, and the logistics are sufficient!
During the Three Kingdoms period, it was no longer the case that the one who conquered the Central Plains would conquer the world, but it was also possible to conquer the world by conquering Yizhou. Even if he could not win the world, he could still dominate one side and become king and emperor. Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor after acquiring the land of Yizhou. So why did Yizhou become the land of the Dragon Lord...
Generally speaking, Yizhou has at least these three advantages: First, area. Yizhou was one of the three largest states during the Three Kingdoms period. Secondly, Yizhou was the most easily defended and difficult to attack state during the Three Kingdoms period. Thirdly, Yizhou is close to the Qiang and other ethnic minorities, so the folk customs are relatively tough and there are many people who are good at fighting.
You know, Zhuge Liang was able to make several northern expeditions because of Yizhou's heritage.
However, there is a dragon spirit in Yizhou, and there is a chance to become emperor, but it depends on who the dragon master is! Liu Bei or Liu Bang could reach the top, but Liu Yan and Liu Zhang became the laughing stock...
Including Liu Yan and his descendants, they are all mediocre dragon masters. If you are a mediocre king, you can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth. But being a dragon master doesn't mean you can be mediocre, otherwise the consequences will be serious.
"As for implementation, we can do it slowly and not too hastily."
"Currently, you should make friends with Ren An, Zhou Shu and other famous people in Yizhou." The old man said slowly.
The old man's surname is Mao'an, and his real name is Dong Fu.
Dong Fu was originally a staff member of the General's Mansion. Later, he was recommended by General He Jin and became a servant. Later, he "hooked up" with Liu Yan.
Of course, Dong Fu is also very capable. Excluding the extremely rare hidden profession of the Chenwei family, his ability in Confucian classics is also very powerful.
Liu Yan was so convinced of this man because of his abilities in all aspects.
