Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 322 The sages of the north and the south are bright for a while

"Ouch, great-grandson. My sweet great-grandson"

The most ferocious enemy of the big Han in the south is holding Liu An tightly at this moment, and his eyes are filled with tears of excitement.

Liu An never imagined that this enemy was so ferocious that he couldn't break free at all.

Zhao Tuo took a few accompanying attendants and rushed to the land of Fujian and Yue to meet Liu Chang. None of the group of them carried any weapons. When they arrived at Liu Chang and the others, Zhao Tuo rushed towards Liu An directly, and he recognized this little guy at a glance.

Liu An's appearance is very similar to Liu Chang's, but there are some differences in stature. The face shape is exactly the same as Liu Chang's, but he is less aggressive and more gentle. When he put on his face, he looked even colder.

The other two cubs were stunned.

Is there a mistake, co-authoring this journey is to see how you are favored?It doesn't matter if the eldest father, Zhongfu and the others dote on you, how come even the enemies are like this?
Liu An broke free several times, but seeing the tears on the old man's face, he still did not continue to struggle.

Zhao Shi and Zhao Mo immediately stepped forward to pay their respects.

Zhao Tuo turned a blind eye to them, especially Zhao Shi.

In the end, Liu Chang couldn't stand it any longer, "King of Nanyue! The widow is here to recover Nanyue, not to visit relatives!"

Hearing these words, Zhao Tuo just got up, but still holding Liu An's hand, he looked at Liu Chang in front of him, and couldn't help nodding, "Stronger, stronger again."

Liu Chang doesn't like other people's children looking at him, and he doesn't like the look of the King of Nanyue the most: I'm here to fight, can you be more serious?
Only then did Zhao Tuo lead the crowd in the direction of Nanyue Kingdom.

Nanyue was completely open to Wu, but what Liu Chang saw along the way was that Nanyue was difficult to educate. The Nanyue people who came here did not look at this group of people with respect, some were just born, indifferent, and hostile.

The atmosphere was very stiff, and the stares of those South Vietnamese made Lu Lu very angry.

"It seems that Guanhou and Fuhou still haven't killed enough."

Lu Lu said coldly.

Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "The Nanyue people are fierce, born in the mountains and forests, and don't know etiquette. Please forgive me. I have taught them for decades, but it is only the beginning of the Nanyue tribe's war, and the losers will be punished. They are probably frightened, thinking that the same is true of big men."

"Hahaha, I thought that the King of Nanyue was not afraid of death, why would he use such means to save his life?"

Liu Chang suddenly laughed, "What do you mean, if you kill you, it will make Nanyue completely out of control, and they will no longer dare to trust the big man, right?"

Zhao Tuo looked at Liu Chang blankly, as if he didn't understand what he said.

The city buildings in South Vietnam are actually not much different from those of the Han Dynasty. At most, because of the abundance of wood resources, there are more houses made of wood. In terms of clothing, most people wear the same clothes, but you can also see When there are people who have broken tattoos and walk around, no matter what they are dressed in, they are a little indifferent to Liu Chang and his group, and no one comes to see him. You must know that Liu Chang was in the Xiongnu, and herdsmen often came to see him.

The attitude of these people is worse than that of the Huns.

This made Liu Chang feel that maybe he should adjust some of the strategies he had made earlier. Blindly embracing softness would inevitably make these barbarians feel that the big man was weak and can be bullied.

Panyu, the capital of South Vietnam, has the appearance of a big capital.

If nothing else, the city wall is not bad in the Central Plains. It is tall and sturdy, the buildings are particularly symmetrical, and it has the style of Qin State. Liu Chang nodded from time to time. This county finally made Liu Chang feel that this place is also a city. The vassal state, and Zhao Shi enthusiastically introduced it to Liu Chang.

"This Panyu was expanded by the First Emperor, and it has been built to this day. It is the big city of my Nanyue Kingdom, located in the heart!"

"In Panyu, I have hoarded a lot of food and materials from South Vietnam."

Zhao Tuo was busy chatting with Liu An at the moment, but he didn't hear Zhao Shi's rhetoric.

The army of the Nanyue Kingdom was already under control. The army of Wu Kingdom and Changsha Kingdom were stationed inside and outside the city. When they entered the palace, Liu Chang was amazed. It is still under construction. Looking at the scale, is this going to build a palace here?

Perhaps seeing Liu Chang's expression, Zhao Tuo said calmly, "No prestige is not enough to convince the public."

"Heh, is it possible to arrogate in order to convince the public? Widows hate you the most ostentatious and arrogant. Widows are very simple, why not follow suit?"

The King of Nanyue looked at the incomparably gorgeous clothes on Liu Chang's body and nodded, "I will never dare to overstep again."

Liu Qi snickered and tugged at Yan'an's sleeve.

"Father Zhong also said that others, he can't wait to use nine horses when he travels, and he has overstepped the limit. Why not say it?"

Liu An was a little unhappy. My grandfather can also arrange it?

"My grandfather is not arrogant, he is a direct rebel, so he won't do this!"

"That's right, it's not an arrogance if you rebel."

Liu Qi nodded.

Liu Chang was not polite, and sat directly in the upper position. Everyone sat on both sides of him. The ministers of Nanyue had been waiting for him for a long time. There was not much dissatisfaction with Liu Chang's behavior of sitting in the upper position. Nanyue was divided into two parts. A faction, some of them are remnants of the Qin state, and some are local princes.Their demands are different.

In the spirit of not seeing the outside world, Liu Chang asked Lu Lu to prepare a banquet, and at the same time asked these ministers about Nanyue.

These ministers are different from those outsiders. They still dare not be too indifferent to Liu Chang. Whenever Liu Chang asks, they will answer them seriously, even those local barbarian princes. Except for their clothes, they can't tell the difference between them. What is the difference between the remnants of the Qin state.

These are smart people who know what to do and what not to do.

"You can rest assured that after Nanyue surrenders to the Han, you are my ministers of the Han, and the widow will not treat you badly!"

"I heard that some traitors said in South Vietnam that when the widow came, they wanted to eliminate the local ministers and arrange their own cronies. This is complete nonsense. The widow will use you, but also reuse you! I can be sealed as a marquis!"

Liu Chang said that he didn't feel distressed at all when he was named a marquis.

The ministers of Nanyue have always heard a lot of rumors about Liu Chang before, saying that this person is arrogant and cruel, a complete tyrant, but now listening to his words, the ministers feel a lot more at ease, most of them just think It is just to keep the current wealth and honor. As for the future of Nanyue Kingdom, that is the matter of the Zhao family.

Zhao Tuo is still doing well. Even after Dahan took over these cities, they still did not actively turn to Dahan. Before speaking, they still looked at Zhao Tuo several times, for fear of saying the wrong thing. Zhao Tuo's prestige here is really high.

"If you have any ideas, you can also tell the widow together!"

With a wave of Liu Chang's hand, the ministers hesitated for a moment.

"Your Majesty, we have lived here for a long time, and we have long regarded this place as our hometown. If Your Majesty allows us to stay here, then we must be very grateful to Your Majesty for his kindness!"

"Okay, if you don't want to be transferred to an official position, then you can stay in Nanyue with peace of mind and forget about the past!"

Seeing that Liu Chang obeyed, the other ministers also got up.

He made several requests one after another, the purpose of which was to preserve his power here.

Liu Chang was in a good mood and agreed with them one by one.

Until one person got up, "Your Majesty, I heard that the big man is not allowed to sell salt and iron privately. I hope that South Vietnam is also poor. If they can't sell salt and iron, I don't know how many people will starve to death."

"This won't work, it must be sold exclusively by the temple, the next one!"

The man was suddenly a little displeased and asked, "South Vietnam is different from the Central Plains, isn't the king afraid of provoking civil upheaval?"

Liu Chang was furious, he flew up suddenly, raised his foot, and kicked the man's chest. The minister flew out and fell to the ground, his life and death unknown.

"Luan Bu! Chop Lu Lu! Drag him down and behead him!"

Zhao Tuo shook his head. He really felt that this Shuzi was easy to bully. The man was dragged out. In fact, it was almost the same as beheading or not. This man was kicked and blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth. I was afraid that he would not live long. , Liu Chang then looked at everyone, "The widow is now kind-hearted, if it was in the past, it must be cooked and killed!"

The ministers lowered their heads, and the timid ones started to tremble.

At this banquet, Liu Chang still left an impression on the Nanyue officials that would not be easily erased.

"Long, Nanyue is very poor. You want to build roads, and I agree very much. However, if you don't have that strength, farming tools are needed for reclamation, and people and materials are needed to build roads."

Zhao Tuo shook his head, his face full of helplessness, and he played an old man who was forced by a strongman very movingly.

Those three little cubs felt pity for him at the moment.

"Let me tell you, even if you dig three feet in the ground, you have to gather things to build the road. The widow will build a pavilion here to collect treasures from the entire south!"

"If you can't do it, just one of these people from Nanyue will be taken to Hexi to repair the emperor's tomb!"

Liu Chang's arrogance is fierce, and the person who speaks like a big tyrant.

"Chang. South Vietnam is not as good as the Central Plains. Even if you kill us all, you can't do it!"

However, Liu Chang narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "But few people have heard that Nanyue has hoarded enough food for the army to use for decades. For fear that Wu Guo will find out, it is hidden in the mountains and forests. What are the benefits of the three mountains, there are many trees. , before the arrival of Wu State, they dispatched people to hide in the deep mountains with all kinds of materials."

Zhao Tuo looked at Liu Chang blankly, "Where did Your Majesty hear the rumor? Who said it?"

"This is the Prince of Nanyue, Zhao Shizhi!"

Liu Chang simply sold Zhao Shi.

Zhao Tuo's face twitched, and he looked at Zhao Shi not far away.

At this time, Zhao Shi seemed to realize what he had done these days, the smile on his face suddenly solidified, and even the wine in his hand lost its taste.

Zhao Tuo resisted the anger in his heart and asked: "Shuzi! Could it be that you have hidden supplies?! You bastard, I want to give the whole country to the big man, how dare you do this?!"

Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "Didn't my father send someone to hide it? It's not me!"

Liu Chang saw that Zhao Tuo's face turned blue, then turned purple, then turned red again, constantly changing.

"Father, don't care about my grandfather. I sent someone to hide it."

Zhao Mei hurriedly got up and bowed towards Zhao Tuo.

"You bastard! How dare you do this? Come on, drag it down and behead it!"

Zhao Shi was shocked and hurriedly stood in front of Zhao Mei, "If you want to kill me, kill me, he is innocent!"

Liu Chang rubbed his forehead and couldn't stand it any longer, "Okay, don't blame the widow, don't do it again."

Zhao Tuo smiled embarrassedly, but he was very cunning and cunning, but he quickly recovered, "Don't blame, this kind of thing will never happen again. It's not because of ulterior motives."

Zhao Shi still wanted to justify something, but Zhao Mei tugged at his sleeve and told him to stop talking.

"After taking these things out, is it enough for us to build roads?"

"Enough, enough."

"Also, the widows need not only to build roads, but also to set up post houses, which must be built along the road, so that pedestrians who come and go can have a place to live. Recruit young scholars as officials and give them the opportunity to make contributions!"

"We don't have many literate people here. How can we be called up as officials?"

"Oh, is that right? I heard that you have reserve officials all over South Vietnam, and you have conducted several assessments, built public schools, and trained scholars."

Zhao Tuo looked at Zhao Shi again.

Zhao Shi just lowered his head and pretended not to see that look.

"Long. I'm a little tired. Let's talk about the rest tomorrow."

Too many words must be lost. Without being sure how much information Shuzi revealed, Zhao Tuo didn't dare to talk to Chang Liu anymore, so he said goodbye to Chang Liu on the grounds of his old age, and sent them away. Lu sneered and sat beside Liu Chang, "Your Majesty, these people are very dishonest, I see, they all have ulterior motives and cannot be trusted!"

"Don't worry, no matter how many ideas he has, he will have to hold them back!"

Liu Chang was dismissive.

Outside, Zhao Mei was blocking Zhao Tuo, and Zhao Tuo tried to pounce on Zhao Shi several times, but failed.

"Shuzi! Shuzi! Do you have to kill the old man to get your wish?!"

"Father. It's none of my business!"

"Don't call me father! You said, how much did you reveal?!"

Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment, and then said timidly: "I don't know much, so I told everything I know. I didn't say anything about what I didn't know, Father, you have to believe me!"

Zhao Tuo took a deep breath, the battlefield failed to send him away, the miasma failed to send him away, but this son was about to send him away.He planned very well at the beginning, even if he could not beat the big man, he could also rely on the emotional card, plus the dangers of the four barriers, to block the big man. As long as he did not die, Nanyue would definitely not perish.

Until this Shu Zi rushed out to fight and sent him out for three stages, Zhao Tuo had no choice but to choose to submit completely. There were several types of submission, but the current submission was obviously the worst.

He is just angry now, why didn't he directly execute him at that time?
The trump cards left before surrendering were all stabbed clean by this vertical.

How can this be done?South Vietnam is dying!

Seeing the eldest father's face getting worse and worse, Zhao Mei hurriedly said: "Father, please don't call, I think the meaning of the king is not to get rid of the power of the king of our Zhao family. Dun and Ji Conge are not his opponents, so what can we do? Xian Guo can save the clan. The king will definitely not attack us."

Zhao Tuo shook his head, didn't speak any more, turned and left.

Zhao Shi was relieved when he saw that he was walking away. He looked at Zhao Mei, who was on the side, and complained, "Why didn't you dissuade me when you were talking about me?"

Zhao Mei opened his mouth wide and looked at his father, unable to speak for a long time.

"Father, Your Majesty, there are no clichés. You insisted on saying it. Your Majesty couldn't stop it, let alone me?!"

"It's an unintentional loss."

Zhao Shi thought for a moment, and then said, "We have to find a way to make amends, so as to avoid long-term doubts, what should I do if I suspect that I am going to launch an army to rebel?"

"Don't worry, Father, with you in Nanyue, Your Majesty will be at ease and will never doubt it."

"Then you have to give some gifts. You are like me. It is best to read books. They are learned sages. Isn't there a lot of books in my father's place? We can give them to him!"

"Father, I have never seen a sage who made allusions by himself in my life, so why don't I send some good wine and meat?"

"What do you know! Don't Confucius, Laozi, Zhuangzi and the like make up allusions by themselves? This is what sages do!"

"Father. They are creating allusions. They are not making up."

While Nanyue Qunxian shines, Chang'an Qunxian also ushered in their own glory in Bashu.

Since these sages came to Bashu, the local officials have not been able to live a stable life.

These sages are really too noisy.

Zhou Yafu ruled the army very strictly. However, Zhou Yafu divided the army into two parts and went out to fight bandits in turn. Once Zhou Yafu led the army out, it would be bad.

At first, the sheriff's family began throwing sheep.

When the county governor found Qunxian angrily, Qunxian wiped the grease from his mouth and told the county governor in unison that it was the thieves who were on the run, saying that they must be taken down to avenge the county governor.

The county governor really couldn't figure out how the thieves outside the city could steal sheep from their homes, but he had no choice but to wait for Zhou Yafu to come back and complain.

Later, even the wine was lost.

The county magistrate went to question again, and Qunxian told him drunkenly that it was the thieves outside the city who did it, and they would definitely take them down!

In the end, the county governor's family began to be embarrassed.

That's right, a few retainers were lost.

When the county guard went to question him, the county guard was also lost and his whereabouts were unknown.

Officials hurriedly asked, only to know that Qunxian was arrested because of corruption.

As for how Qunxian knew he was corrupt?
Qunxian kept his mouth shut. According to rumors, they found out when they accidentally went to the county governor's mansion. He hid a lot of money in the mansion and kept it in a very secret place. According to his retainers, this money, It was given by local merchants, and the county governor himself faltered, unable to tell the history.

There are several big merchants in Bashu, who make a living by selling tea, and have a lot of wealth.

Qunxian ushered in spring here.

ps: I went shopping for groceries at noon, looked down at the comments of the sages, and was replying, but I stumbled and my phone flew out.
