Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 824 is especially important
Liu Changtoe sat proudly on the carriage, watching the scene of people coming and going on both sides, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "What a scene in a prosperous age."

The person driving for him was Dou Guangguo. Hearing Liu Chang's emotion, he hurriedly answered, "It's all because of your majesty's merit."

Liu Chang shook his head, "I can't say it's all due to me, my mother also contributed a bit, and the rest is my credit!"

Dou Guangguo hastily said yes.

"Today I want to help the Ministry of Industry and test the performance of the carriages they make. Go outside the city to try it. It can be regarded as my contribution to the manufacturing industry of the Great Han. I just can't take it easy. I just want to do something for the common people and the country.”

Hearing His Majesty's words about going to the car outside the city so profoundly, Dou Guangguo once again said with emotion: "Your Majesty's kindness is really touching."

They soon came to the west of the city, near Taixue, and were about to leave the city from here when they saw an old man pulling another person.

The old man was dressed in rags, his hair was messy, and he was full of stench. He was a beggar, and the person he stopped was dressed as a Confucian scholar, obviously an imperial student.

"My gentleman. I haven't eaten for five days. Please be merciful and give me some money. I'm about to starve to death here. Please be kind."

The beggar lowered his head, his face full of misery, the imperial student sighed, and took out some money from his pocket.

Liu Chang frowned immediately.

Dou Guangguo couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, even in a prosperous age, it is impossible for everyone to have enough food and clothing. There are always people who don't have enough to eat. This is unavoidable. Your Majesty doesn't need to take it to heart."

Liu Chang shook his head, "Just stop."

Dou Guangguo stopped the car helplessly.

But seeing the beggar still standing in front of the Tai student, he kept thanking him, "Thank you for your help. A gentleman is a virtuous man at first glance. I really dare not hide from you. I am a southerner, and I came here because of my escape. , I want to go home, but I have no money, so I can only beg here, and I don't want to humiliate myself like this, but I am homesick, I just want to go home, but I have to travel all the way, really If it is difficult to return, if you can save me some travel expenses, it will be a great kindness and great virtue, and I dare not forget it in this life."

The Tai student looked at him, sighed again, took out a lot of money, handed it to this person, and said: "You are so old, you shouldn't have to suffer like this, and I don't have much money on me, so you just take it." Use it as travel expenses."

"Thank you gentleman! Thank you gentleman!!"

The old man saluted the Tai student again and again, and then wiped his tears and said: "I left home at the beginning because there was a seriously ill old mother in the family. My mother lived a long life. Now she is sick, but I can't treat her. Now I am here Chang’an failed to make any money, so he went back like this, but how can he face his mother? I really feel sorry for my mother! I can’t be filial!!”

Listening to the old man's words, the Tai student's face was full of unbearable.

"But I don't have any money with me."

The old man looked at the Tai student's waist, "I see the jade you are wearing."

As the old man was talking, he felt a cold wind blowing, he couldn't help but shivered, turned his head, but saw a very burly man standing beside him, staring at him coldly.

"Are you a beggar or a robber?"

"Why do you say that?"

Liu Chang was not polite, grabbed the man's neck, and widened his eyes, "Are you from the south? Which county? Which county?!"

The old man panicked immediately, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't rob me! I have no money! I have no money!"

The Tai student hurriedly said: "My gentleman, don't do this, why do you make it difficult for an old man?"

"You are an imperial student? How did you get into the Imperial Academy? Can't you see that this guy is lying to you? How can a person who has not eaten for five days and who has not eaten for five days be as full of energy as him? Speak with a Chang'an accent? What kind of old mother, at his age, if his mother is still alive, she will be given a longevity stick; if she is sick, the local officials will have to run around on her behalf, what else do you need him to earn?"

The Tai student raised his head and said very displeasedly: "I think you also seem to have studied, don't you know the principle of filial piety? My teacher said, for a real gentleman, is he It’s not important to make up, what’s important is that when you hear someone’s grandmother is seriously ill, you must go to help, and when you encounter filial matters, you must not sit idly by, this is what a real gentleman does!”

Liu Chang was a little surprised, "I told you, this guy is a liar, there is no such thing at all, what do you say to me about filial piety? It is the biggest unfilial piety for him to cheat money with this excuse. ?”

"This is the knowledge taught by my teacher. As for this old man, whether his words are false or not is hard to say, but your Excellency, he looks vicious, not a good person!"

Dou Guangguo secretly thought it was not good.

Sure enough, Liu Chang grinned after hearing this.

"He doesn't seem like a good person, does he?"

"Okay, today I will be a good person."

Liu Chang stretched out his hand abruptly, and dragged the Confucian scholar in front of him. Before the Confucian scholar could react, he was directly pressed to the ground by Liu Chang, and he sat on top of him. The Confucian scholar was so pressed that he could not speak. Almost fainted, Liu Chang sat on the Confucian scholar like this, and looked at the beggar in front of him with a smile, "Guanguo, please bring me some steamed cakes. Today I will help the poor!"

Soon, someone came to Liu Chang with two big bowls full of steamed cakes.

Liu Chang just stared into the eyes of the man in front of him.

"Come on, haven't you eaten for five days? Here's something for you, come! Eat!!"

"Give it to me!"

Liu Chang's voice was loud, and the old man was so frightened that he leaned close to the corner, trembling all over, looking at the cakes in front of him in horror, at a loss what to do.

He looked to the passersby around for help.

It's a pity that no one dared to come here. A large group of embroidered clothes stood beside Liu Chang, and no one was allowed to approach. The old man knew that he had hit the iron plate and hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Please go around me, I won't dare again"

"I'm not hurting you, I'm helping you. Come, eat! If you don't eat, I'll help you eat!"

Trembling, the old man picked up the cake in front of him and ate it carefully.

"Fast food!!"

The old man chewed frantically.

Liu Chang didn't say a word, just sat here, watching him eat, the beggar ate two big cakes in a row, his whole face changed a little, it was really hard to swallow.

"No problem, I'll get you some water. Why are there only two pieces of cake? This ordinary farmer can eat five pieces at a time when he goes out to work. You haven't eaten for five days, so you can only eat two pieces?" ??"

"I can't eat anymore"

"I was also forced by life to come out to beg."

"Come here! Feed him!!!"

Dou Guangguo was very helpless, and hurriedly said: "We still have something to do outside the city. It's better to leave this matter to the officials. You see."

"I have to be a good person today!!"

Liu Chang's stubborn temper came up, but no one could dissuade him.

Just as the embroidered clothes were stuffing the man's mouth with cakes, a hero passing by finally found out what was going on here. Seeing several people bullying an old man here, the hero became furious and pushed away the few people in front of him. An embroidered clothes, opened his mouth and scolded: "at the feet of the emperor, how dare you act like this?!"

"Things with eyes but no eyes, you come with me too!!"

Before the hero could react, he was dragged by Liu Chang, and he was also pressed on the ground, and he was dragged to use it as a seat.

When Zhang Xiancheng of the county government rushed here with people, he saw that His Majesty was sitting on the three of them, and there was an old man in front of him, who had already fainted, with half a piece of steamed cake in his mouth.

Zhang Xiancheng was full of helplessness, and hurriedly paid his respects.

"Take this liar away to me, and these three guys, you have to teach them well, especially the one who is too learned, ask which idiot taught it!"

"only!!"

After Lao Zhang took everyone away, Liu Changfang snorted coldly, and looked at Dou Guangguo, "There are a bunch of idiots in Taixue, can such people be officials?!"

"It's just young and ignorant, don't be angry, Your Majesty."

Because of such an incident, Liu Chang also had no intention of going outside the city to ride the car again, and returned directly to Houde Hall.

Just after returning to Houde Hall, Liu Chang was about to eat something when someone rushed to the door.

It was Sima Xi who came, and Sima Xi stood helplessly in front of Liu Chang, bowing his head to apologize to Liu Chang.

Liu Chang said with a light smile: "You used to turn a blind eye to my achievements and often recorded some incorrect things. However, I am a magnanimous person and I will not blame you. Don't worry, as long as you can be serious in the future I won’t blame you if you record my achievements truthfully!”

But Sima Xi said: "I have always recorded truthfully and never made any mistakes. I came here today to plead guilty because my son offended you, so I plead guilty on my son's behalf."

"Your son offended me??"

Liu Chang looked at him suspiciously, looked at him for a moment, and suddenly came to his senses, "Is that stupid Taixue your son? No way? How could you have such a dull son?"

Sima Xi's face darkened and he didn't answer.

Liu Chang looked at his face again, and shook his head again, "He doesn't look like you, but he looks good, that's the talent. But how did you know this?"

Sima Xi was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said, "I knew it was His Majesty the moment I heard him say it."

Liu Chang curled his lips, "I heard you say how smart your son is many times, but today, it seems that he has learned wrongly."

Sima Xi let out a long sigh, and then said: "Your Majesty doesn't know something. In order to train this child, I invited many famous teachers for him. He learned from Heavenly Officials in the Tang Dynasty, was taught by Yi Yang He, and learned Taoism from Huang Gong." The knowledge of Confucianism, Huang Lao, and even Yin Yang School is my fault. I thought that the more teachers there are, the more things he learns, the more promising he will be. Unexpectedly, I have learned many schools of thought, but I can’t get in any school. You have attainments, although you know a lot of things, but you can't apply them at all, and today you offended His Majesty, slandering Your Majesty with those ridiculous words, please forgive me."

Liu Chang frowned, "Your son is not yet 20 years old, right? You let him learn the knowledge of three schools at the same time? There is a man in Zhao State, because the fruit trees in the land are always not tall enough, so he went to the field to use I pulled them up one by one by hand, and I was complacent, and all the fruit trees died in the end! Do you know this allusion?"

"Your Majesty, it is the people of Song Dynasty who pull out the seedlings."

"I'm talking about Zhao people, Zhao people are all tree pullers!"

"No matter what he is, the truth is the same anyway. I don't care about it with the little baby. You have to understand this truth and teach your son well."

"only!!!"

Not long after Sima Xi walked out, another person walked in bouncing around.

Liu Ye grinned and came to Liu Chang's side happily.

"Father~~~"

"Are you tired? Let me rub your shoulders!!"

Liu Jing stood behind Liu Chang, pressing Liu Chang's shoulder vigorously, Liu Chang closed his eyes lightly, and said, "If you want to go south with Master, then don't talk about it."

Liu Jing was taken aback for a moment, then let go of his hand, and sat in front of Liu Chang helplessly, looking at him eagerly.

"Father, how pitiful is Eldest Father going to the south alone, can't you let me go with him? It's exhausting to practice the navy, and he needs someone to take care of him."

"You followed him because he was distracted to take care of you, not you to take care of him!"

"Father~~~Let me go~~"

Liu Jing immediately began to act like a baby, but Liu Chang still had a straight face, "No, if I agree to you, your mother will have to eat me. Besides, your eldest father has something important to go to the south, so I can't let you delay He, don't think about it anymore, just stay here with peace of mind."

Liu Jing was very displeased, pouted, sat in front of Liu Chang, and muttered: "I'm not going to mess around, I'm going to learn the art of war. The navy will definitely be the most important thing in the future. I just want to talk to Daddy Go to study, so that I can go abroad for you in the future"

"Go overseas? It's easy for you to say, so I'll teach you when your father comes back."

Liu Jie sighed, "Why do you distrust me so much?"

"Who said they don't believe you?"

Liu Chang smiled and pulled her to his side, rubbing her head, "I believe you will be a very good general, but well, your father is going to the south this time, there is really a very important matter, I can't let you go, otherwise your elder father will be distracted, and your temperament is not enough to stay with elder father at ease. If you insist on becoming a general, then go to study in the army and rely on your own ability in the future , create a career, I will definitely not stop you, if you can do better than your brothers, it may not be impossible to make you a prince."

Liu Jie's eyes lit up, "Father, can you count what you say?"

"Of course it counts, but I want to tell you that it is not so easy to be a general or a prince. Now you are learning the art of war all day long, and you don't know anything about government affairs. You don't know how to employ people or how to govern the people. It is impossible for me to become a king for such a person, everything depends on ability, especially for you, if you want to be recognized, you have to pay more. Look at your mother, she is very capable. Outstanding, when the court issues orders, who would dare to oppose it except me?"

Liu Jing was suddenly full of fighting spirit.

"I will study hard, and I must become more talented than Big Mom!"

"Hahaha, okay, don't underestimate those who are scholars. Their knowledge contains the knowledge of governing the country. You should stay and study hard. Sooner or later, you will show your talents!"

Liu Jie was very happy and stopped talking about going to the south.

Liu Chang asked calmly: "What happened to that rat named Wen Jun? Will he still look for you now?"

"Father, don't look down on others like this. Wenjun is both civil and military, deeply trusted by elder brother, and serves by elder brother's side all year round."

"Heh, I give up one hand, and he can't survive three moves, what kind of civil and military skills?"

"He's still young"

Liu Chang became even more angry, and Liu Jie couldn't help but said: "Father, I'm just an ordinary playmate with him, why are you so angry? Besides, his life is not easy now, his mother is married, Do you know about it?"

"Of course I know, isn't Ci still clamoring about this matter before? Why? Something went wrong so soon?"

Liu Jie shook his head, "That's not true, his mother is about to give birth, and it's his stepfather, how should I put it, Wenjun told me that his stepfather always asked him to speak for him by the prince's side, seeking benefits, but Wenjun He couldn't do such a thing, even his mother begged him to do things, he was in a dilemma, and his younger sisters suffered a lot of bullying in the new home, his stepfather had a wife who always bullied his sisters A younger sister, he has been talking about these things recently, and he is in a very bad mood."

Although he hated this Zhuzi very much, Liu Chang's face was still very serious when he heard such a thing.

"I remember that he is about the same age as you, how can that idiot force his stepson to do such a thing?"

"Yeah, I was also very angry and wanted to help him, but he said he had to take care of my mother and begged me not to do it."

Liu Chang sighed, "It's not easy for Zhu Zi, so how about it, tell your eldest brother that I don't care about his mother, what happens to her in the future is her own choice, but her daughters , can't be bullied because of her decision, let your eldest brother take those children to their brother's side, and send a loyal person to take care of them together."

When Liu Jie heard about it, he was overjoyed and hurried forward, kissing Liu Chang hard on the face.

"Father is truly the king of benevolence and righteousness!"

But Liu Chang shook his head, "The woman was driven into a coma. When that guy finds out that there is nothing to gain, this woman will probably have a hard life. Her child may suffer something." What kind of day is this? So, when people do things, they must consider how to behave properly, and you can’t make big mistakes because of small things. If you have the idea of ​​making a king with merit, then you must remember this, and don’t be dazed by foreign things. Head. Especially stay away from some good-looking, seemingly honest people! This is very important!!"

ps: It’s the end of the month, dear fathers, let’s vote for some monthly tickets! !
