Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 163 The Tang Palace?No, den of thieves!

Xuanyi looked up and saw that the mansion was not closed, and the three words "Tang Palace" were written on the plaque. The two words are, the den of thieves!

When Tingwei learned that King Tang had his own mansion, he understood that he had come to live.

Sure enough, Dang Xuanyi quickly caught several "criminals" from the Tang Palace.

Xiahouzao was extremely angry, he shouted: "I helped sweep the snow on the street, this is a righteous act! If you don't come to reward us, you have to arrest us, the reward and punishment are unknown! I will definitely tell my father and let him take care of it. Treat you!"

Xuan Yi glanced at him, "I don't care if you sweep the snow, but you piled the snow outside the gate of Cao Mansion, so that Duke Cao can only go over the wall to check it out, this is your problem."

"I want to see my father!"

"The one who asked me to arrest people here is your father. Your father is sweeping snow in Cao's residence at the moment, and he personally pleads guilty to Cao Xiang."

Fan Yan asked with some displeasure: "He blocked the door of Cao's house, so you can arrest him. We are just playing ice skating, and we didn't block anyone's door. Why should we arrest us together?"

"I don't care if you and Lu Lu are skating, but if you sprinkle water in front of Jianchenghou's house and skate there, then I will arrest you. That is to say, Jianchenghou is strong, otherwise Lu will become Jianchenghou now."

"Ah? Father fell?"

Lu Lu's eyes widened.

Xuanyi looked at Zhang Yan again, and sighed helplessly, "Why do you want to hang out with them? You are the one who builds the snow, and you are the one who skates. Come with me."

Zhang Yan is not like these people. He is inexperienced, his face full of horror, looking at Liu Chang, and shouting: "Uncle save me!"

Liu Chang waved his little hand, "Don't be afraid, I'll let Luan Bu fetch you later! No one dares to do anything to you. Duke Xuan, my son is weak, my elder sister is with the queen mother, if If he hurts him, I'm afraid this Tingwei will be replaced!"

Xuan Yi stared at Liu Chang coldly, and then asked everyone, "If you tell the truth, I can let you go. King Tang also participated in these things, right?"

"No! I did it all by myself!"

Fan Yan was the first to shout, and after him, everyone also shouted, Zhang Yan was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "This has nothing to do with my uncle! If you want to punish, punish me!"

Xuan Moru also shouted: "Yes, we will never betray the king!"

Xuan Yi glared at him, "Someone, take this Shuzi back to me too!!"

Half of Qunxian was taken away, but Liu Chang didn't panic. In this respect, he was already an expert. From Tingwei to Jiashi, he was very familiar with them, so he asked Luanbu to help him as usual. , let the rest of the sages go home, and Liu Chang chatted with Ji Bu about the arrangements of the ink artists.

While chatting, Zhang Budo brought a group of people to the Tang Palace.

These people are the Mohists and Confucians who were originally in Shangfang.

Liu Chang smiled and got up, and asked the old Qin Mo to sit aside, very polite, while Chen Tao and the others just stood, shivering with cold.

Liu Chang looked at them disdainfully, "I heard that when the Mo family's Juzi took the Mohists to give lectures, he also wore thin clothes and no shoes in winter. Like the common people, he was not afraid of severe cold. You are still wearing winter clothes. Why can't you even handle this cold wind?"

Chen Tao gritted his teeth, "Your Majesty, we are Chu Mo, Chu people!"

"Oh, the widow understands what you mean, Chu Mo is the weakest, so he can't bear it."

"I", Chen Tao was speechless.

"Forget it, let's go into the inner room!"

Liu Chang waved his hand and led everyone into the inner room. Everyone sat on both sides, and Liu Chang asked, "Chen Tao? I heard that another group of Chu Mo has come, and they are also yours?"

Chen Tao said helplessly: "Your Majesty. These people heard that we were trapped in Chang'an, so they came to rescue us. After I explained, they stayed."

"It's better to stay. Look at what you have made recently. You Chu Mo are not useless. If you can correct your past mistakes, maybe in the Tang country, the Mo family will have a chance to revive."

This is what Chen Tao was waiting for, and he hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

The reason why Chen Tao and the others stayed for so long was of course not because of Liu Chang's simple aggressive tactics. The main reason was because the Mo family was lonely. Basically, no nobles could look down on the Mo family. Qi Mo disappeared completely, and Qin Mo followed. Qin perished and became a criminal, and Chu Mo also gradually disappeared.

King Tang was the only one who valued the Mo family. He rescued a lot of Qin Mo who had been imprisoned, and even sent some Qin Mo to Tang State to give lectures. Naturally, Chu Mo didn't want to miss such an opportunity.

Zhang Budo got up and said, "Your Majesty, two people came from Shangfang Beppu last night, claiming to be able to help Your Majesty improve agricultural tools."

"Oh? What about people?"

After Liu Chang asked, two people stood up and saluted Liu Chang. The two were dark-skinned, young and normal in appearance, and they didn't seem to have any talent.

"Zhao Li greets the king!"

"Ren Zhao? Can you improve the farming tools?"

The man who opened the mouth raised his head and said with a smile, "This minister is a farmer. He is proficient in arithmetic and knows how to improve farm implements."

Liu Chang was shocked. Of course he knew about the farm family. This is also one of the hundreds of schools of thought. Its vitality is extremely tenacious. This school has not declined, because he has never risen at all. Not as prominent as the Mo family, but the Mo family is gone, he still exists.

"What? Farmers!"

At that moment, a few Confucian students sitting on the right jumped up violently and yelled, "A traitor who goes against the order of the top and bottom!"

When the hundred schools of thought were arguing, the Confucianists and the Mohists always had a hard time getting along, and they would pinch each other when they met.

Liu Chang didn't care, he said with a smile, "Farmers? Well, I'm short of talents in this area! Why did you come directly to the widow if you didn't go to Tang country?"

"Er Zhang Xiang is a Confucian." Zhao Li vaguely mentioned a sentence, and then said: "What's more, I have a relationship with the king."

"You and I have relatives?"

Liu Chang's face was full of confusion, and Zhao Li hurriedly said, "This minister is Hengshan Zhending Zhao and the king."

"Ridiculous!" Ji Bu suddenly interrupted him and said solemnly, "My eldest king is from Peixian County. He was born in Chang'an, and has never been related to Zhaodi."

Zhao Li was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized, and hurriedly leaned over and said: "I remembered it wrongly, mainly because I was worried that Zhang Xiang would not accept it, so I came here."

Different from the Mohists, peasant families have always been active in various places. There are also many peasant families in various vassal states. They will adopt the techniques of peasant families, but they will not listen to his political philosophy. Why?Because the peasant family proposed that everyone should do it by themselves and have enough food and clothing. They took Shennong and others as a precedent and wanted the monarch and ministers to stop taxing the people and let them farm and support themselves.

Therefore, Confucians think that they want the monarchs and ministers to farm the land. Confucianism is retro, and they want to return to the era of Yao and Shun, but these people directly want to return to the primitive society. Respect to the extreme!
Then why did they survive in the Qin Dynasty without being persecuted by the First Emperor?

Because in addition to this political proposition, the farmers also have a political proposition of farming and warfare. They reward the development of agricultural production and study agricultural production issues. They are quite accomplished in this regard, which coincides with the Qin Dynasty's concept of governing the country. The most important thing is farming and warfare, so they have survived until now.

Then why in Dahan they can continue to live and not decline?
That's because Dahan copied... ahem, learned lessons on the basis of the demise of the violent Qin Dynasty, and absorbed a small part of political concepts, which happened to include farming and warfare. Coincidence, it's just a coincidence!

Confucianism pays attention to etiquette, rank and the like, but if the peasant family wants to abolish the rank, it basically calls that everyone is equal, and everyone must work in the fields and support themselves. The peasant family felt that Yao and Shun had set a precedent for the monarch to persecute the common people. The two sides could not be regarded as being in love with each other, but they could be regarded as life and death.

Therefore, almost the moment they learned the identity of the other party, the Confucian scholars were furious and almost wanted to fight them.

Liu Chang smiled and let the man sit beside him.

Ji Bu lowered his head and hesitated.

"Are you really a person? Oh, this place is familiar to many people! I heard that the folk customs here are sturdy, and after hundreds of years, there will definitely be fierce generals here!"

Zhao Li didn't say anything, he just said: "I know a little about the method of farming and benefiting, and I saw the new farm tool King made by the king in Tangdi, please see!"

Zhao Li took out the design drawing from his arms, Liu Chang picked it up, and looked at it seriously. This design drawing is very simple and improved on the basis of the plough made by Liu Chang. Liu Chang looked at it for a moment, Asked: "Is this using a plough to sow?"

"Yeah, this is what I did after seeing the king's plough"

Zhao Li explained his thinking, Liu Chang was very happy to hear it, but the Confucians in the distance could not sit still.

"Your Majesty!"

"Don't fall for the villain's trick!"

"The thief of the peasant family who violated the order, how can he sit at the same seat with the king?!"

It was Mencius who first blew the clarion call to attack the peasant family. After Mencius, the Confucians did not let go of this grievance and kept attacking the peasant family. Historically, in the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Confucian family finally won an overall victory, and the peasant family has since withdrawn from the stage of history.

Liu Chang glanced at the Confucian scholars and asked, "If you don't like the peasant family, then you have proved that you are more useful than the peasant family. How can you use the power of the few? Back then, when a hundred schools of thought contended, everyone came to prove their school, and this is how it emerged. Out of all the sages, since you hate peasant families, why don't you prove it?"

"It's better to use the standards of your own school to blame than to beat the farmers at what they are good at!"

"It's the same with your peasant family. Don't think that I will help you and support you. The widow is the most just and never partial. You have to prove yourself before you can find a way out in Tang Guo!"

"only!"

Zhao Li agreed quickly, and the Confucian scholars blushed, and naturally agreed in a hurry.

Looking at the two groups of people who looked bad, Liu Chang narrowed his eyes. There are advantages and disadvantages in competition. It seems that he can't fall to either side. He must make good use of this discord between them and make them work harder. Pay for Tang Guo!
Liu Chang looked at Chu Mo again, "Look, the people from the peasant family came to Chang'an despite the wind and snow, just to revitalize their own school. How about you? How can you revitalize the Mo family like this!"

Liu Chang naturally would not let the design go away, he handed Zhao Li a letter and asked Zhao Li to take the letter to Tang State, saying that with this letter, Zhang Xiang would not embarrass him.Liu Chang knew that even without this letter, the master would definitely not embarrass him, because Zhang Cang didn't care about it at all.

After arranging Chu Mo and others to their own mansion, Liu Chang sat in a carriage and followed Ji Bu and others out of the mansion and headed for the palace.He originally wanted to live here directly, but his mother didn't allow it, so he could only come to the mansion to stay for a while during the day, and he had to go back to the palace at night.

"Jibu, why did that person say he has a relationship with me?"

Liu Chang suddenly asked, but Ji Bu lowered his head, "It's just nonsense."

"Then why are you so excited?"

"My minister has something to hide."

"I hate when people lie to me!"

"Your Majesty, when you return to Fengguo, I will tell you about this."

Liu Chang glanced at Ji Bu, but did not force him any more.

When Liu Chang happily returned to the Jiaofang Palace, Liu Lezheng was excited to say something to Empress Lu. When he saw Liu Chang coming in, the two stopped immediately. Liu Le smiled and glanced at Liu Chang, and was about to say something. What, but looking at Liu Chang's side, Liu Le asked in surprise, "Where's Zhang Yan?"

"Ah? Didn't you go to Tingwei to get him?"

"Tingwei?!!"

Liu Le's eyes widened, and Liu Chang slapped his forehead abruptly, "Oh, the widow forgot to ask Luan Bu to inform you! Quickly send someone to take Zhang Yan over!"

It was the first time that Liu Le encountered such a situation, so he rushed out of the Jiaofang Palace in a hurry, Liu Chang shook his head, "Hey, it's freezing cold today, I don't know how much my Yuzi suffered." , he said, and turned around, just in time to see his mother gently slapping her left hand with a wooden stick.

"Never mind my business! It's Zhou Shengzhi and the others who brought Yan to build snow and skate!"

That night, uncle and nephew were lying on the bed, Zhang Yan said aggrieved: "The rest of the people were taken away, but I was shivering in the cold in Tingwei alone. No one came."

"Ahem, Yuzi, I told my eldest sister very early, she just wanted you to have a memory, so I went a little late."

"Uncle, I want to go home."

"Hey, it's just a beating, man, what about being beaten? Look at me, I've broken at least six wooden sticks over the years, and the more I beat, the stronger I get, and in a few years, they won't be able to beat me!"

While the two were chatting, Liu Le walked in. She looked around and asked, "Is your mother here?"

"I'm not here. I'm here to help my brother with the official documents. I'm in a hurry."

Liu Le sat beside Liu Chang and said solemnly, "Chang, there is one thing that I have to ask you to help me with."

"Yan, you go to the outer hall."

"Ah?" Zhang Yan was stunned, but he got up obediently. He didn't suffer that hard, and there was no problem with getting up. After he left, Liu Chang couldn't wait to ask: "Eldest sister, tell me, How can you help the widow?!"

Liu Le said seriously: "Mother wants to marry Yan to King Yan."

"Ah?? Isn't this a mess of generations? After that, when I see King Yan, should I call him brother, or let him call my uncle?"

Liu Le shook his head, "In a bitter and cold place in the country of Yan, what's more, the two of them are related. In fact, your sister-in-law and I have already had candidates."

"Ah? There is a candidate? Who is it??"

"You should know this person. He is Zhang Xiang's most outstanding and outstanding disciple."

Liu Chang was shocked and shouted, "Want to marry me? No way! No way! I'm her uncle!"

"Bah! What are you talking about, you bastard!"

"You said it yourself, I am Zhang Xiang's most outstanding and outstanding disciple!"

Liu Le glanced at him disdainfully and said, "I'm talking about another person who is better than you."

"Better than me? Nonsense, I am better than the overlord, outwitted Liuhou, Xunzi, the future saint of Huang Lao, who can be better than me?"

Liu Le didn't want to argue about this issue anymore, she said: "This person is Jia Yi, who was admitted by Zhang Xiang when he was young, but now he is the same age as your fourth brother, but he is talented and famous, he recites poetry and books, and comments on important events in the world. He is proficient in everything, his father used to follow King Jing, your sister-in-law likes him very much, and wants to marry his daughter to him."

Liu Chang raised his head disdainfully, and said sourly, "It doesn't sound that good. It's nothing to be able to comment on the world's major events. I also follow Chang'an Qunxian to comment on the world's situation all day long. Who wouldn't!"

"Okay, okay, far worse than you. However, you have to help me, and never let Zhang Yan marry into Yan Kingdom!"

"Okay! Leave this to me!"

Liu Chang was ready and waited for his mother to come back. When it was very late, Empress Lv carefully walked into the Jiaofang Palace. She looked a little tired and her eyes were red. When she gently walked into the Jiaofang Palace At that time, Liu Chang suddenly stood up, propped himself up with both hands, and shouted, "Mother!"

"Didn't sleep?"

"No, I have something important to discuss with my mother."

Empress Lu entered the inner room, changed clothes, and then came to Chang Liu's place and started to eat, "What's the matter?"

Liu Chang tried his best to recall the way his family members persuaded him. With a straight face, he said solemnly: "Mom, I heard that the wise men in ancient times said: "Same surname does not marry." He said a few words, He just felt awkward, he couldn't make it up, he simply said, "If you marry Yan into Yan Kingdom, I will kill Yan Kingdom!"

Empress Lu narrowed her eyes, "Have you beaten lightly today?"

"Uh, grandma, you like Yan the most on weekdays, why did you marry her to the country of Yan so far away?"

"Yan Wang is a talented person, isn't he worthy of Yan?"

"Not really, it's just that you still have to see what Big Sister means."

"She was born to me, I'm still alive, and it's not her turn to be responsible for these things."

Liu Chang said displeasedly: "This is the biggest problem, Mom, you always think that we are young, even if the eldest sister has become a family and the child is about to get married, you have to take care of it, no wonder the elder brother is now They are also controlled by the ministers! Does Grandma want to control them for the rest of their lives?!"

"Shuzi! Am I hurting you?!"

Empress Lu was furious and glared at Liu Chang angrily.

"We're all grown up! Can't we decide something for ourselves?!"

"I don't care, the eldest sister is so old, why does the mother even interfere in her child's marriage!"

The two quarreled, and Empress Lu said with a cold face, "Okay, okay, you've all grown up. From now on, I'll leave you alone, and you can live by yourself! Don't come to me if you have anything!"

Liu Chang snorted coldly, turned his head, and shouted, "I have grown up! I will go back to my mansion tomorrow! Never again! Never again!"

The attendants bowed their heads and said nothing. In the whole world, only Liu Chang dared to quarrel with Empress Lu. This was not the first time they had quarreled. The number of times is also increasing, but this is not important, anyway, they can reconcile in the end, it has nothing to do with them.

The next day, Empress Lu was eating, but Liu Chang smiled and walked to her side.

"Mom, what are you eating?"

"Mother~~"

Empress Lu didn't look away and ignored him, Liu Chang put his arms around her neck and kissed her face a few times, "Mum, don't be angry~~"

"I have all your things ready, move out."

"Mum~ Why are you willing to let me go?"

When Liu Chang launched the act of coquettishness and continued to show his diligence, Empress Lu's face became better. She frowned and scolded: "I did it for your own good! Without me, what can you do? Eat After a few bowls of millet, come to challenge me?!"

"No, I know that grandma is best for our good grandma!"

"That Zhang Yan thing?"

"Go tell Liu Le what she likes to do! Don't ask me if anything happens, let her make up her own mind!"

"Mum~ Don't be angry. Come on, let me sing to you?"

Looking at Chang Liu who was entangled in her hospitality, Empress Lu snorted coldly.

"Short."
