sweeping the world

Chapter 523 Don't Lose Inheritance
Ran Min, Huan Wen and others really started fighting!
"Several ministers were wearing trousers and were walking on the street with their breasts and bellies exposed..." Xun Xian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with a dumbfounded expression, "I heard that there were many onlookers."

Liu Yan knew why they were wearing compliment trousers. Those guys didn't go home at all after they went down to court.

"It's outrageous!" Xu Zheng said so, but there was no anger on his face, and he even said slightly vaguely while gnawing on the mutton skewers: "We must deal with them."

It is not uncommon for the important officials of the country to have conflicts. Direct scuffling is not good for the atmosphere, but it is better than all kinds of darkness in private.

The nobles of the early Han Dynasty often had a good show of martial arts. At the most serious time, at least a hundred nobles called their friends and friends to fight directly. The scene seemed to be a riot. It was not until the time of Emperor Wu that it was gradually banned.

It was obvious that the people who started fighting in the street were definitely drunk. Who wanted to show their bravery, and then Ran Min wanted to show that he could fight, so it was just a one-to-many fight.

"The court meeting is over, and many ministers have not returned home. They are meeting with colleagues to have a drink..." Seeing Liu Yan's eyes suddenly widen, Xun Xian continued, "The street where the Marquis of Meiyang and others are located is Fenghuafang. , now there are a lot of... military generals competing in the street."

Meiyang is a county in Guanzhong, and what Ran Min got was the title of a county marquis.The Marquis of Meiyang has been a lot of people in history, and the most famous one is Guo Si.In view of Guo Si's reputation is not good, few people are willing to be the Marquis of Meiyang Hou since the Eastern Han Dynasty.Fortunately, Ran Min's fiefdom was chosen by himself and obtained from Liu Yan, otherwise he didn't know what would be said.

Every winter is the season for local officials of the Han Dynasty to report to the central government. Civil and military officials of a certain level need to report on their duties. Officials will go wherever Liu Yan is.

The city of Xiangguo is very large, and its planning is messy. Considering that Liu Yan will stay in Xiangguo for a long time in the future, Tian Shuo, the insignificant Jiuqing, finally found something to do.

Tian Shuo was a servant, and the servant was not only in charge of horse administration in the Han Dynasty, but also involved in some urban construction powers.He and Cai You, the governor of Su Nei, came to re-plan Xiangguo.

According to the custom of the Han family, the planning of the city is "well-ordered", which means that the city is like farmland, and then divided into a large number of squares, each square has its own role, and is also specially divided into various fields. level residential area.In addition to the square, there will be a "market", and the "market" actually has another word "ji", which is the area used for buying and selling. The buying and selling is subdivided into daily necessities, restaurants, livestock sales, Many kinds and so on.

Cai You and Tian Shuo first planned the residential area for hundreds of officials. After the officials settled in, they would pursue some daily necessities. The "city" in the city became the second construction sequence, including the opening of wine shops and the like. restaurant street.

"I really don't know that you are so energetic." Liu Yan stood up slowly, clapping his palms not to encourage, but just to pat off some dirt, and said: "Zhu Qing and I will grow up together." experience?"

Xu Zheng immediately jumped up and shouted: "Learn a lot."

Ji Chang and Yu Yi observed Liu Yan's face first, and seeing that Liu Yan was not angry, they agreed in unison: "No."

Miyagi is not close to the "city" in the city. Liu Yan had to change clothes before leaving the palace, and even Ji Chang, Xu Zheng, and Yu Yi, who were still wearing court clothes, had to change clothes. It took a quarter of an hour to reunite at the agreed place.

As they approached their destination, they heard lively voices before they arrived. The closer they got, the more crowds gathered. If you listened for a while, you could hear them all talking about the battle of strength ahead.

Of course Liu Yan did not go out of the palace in a white fish dragon suit and without guards. The standard configuration was to leave the palace with at least one hundred guards, but Ji Chang, Xu Zheng, and Yu Yi only brought a few followers.

A large number of people are active, and the movement is naturally a big deal. Even if the people they meet don't know Liu Yan's identity, they will subconsciously step aside.

The system not only gives Liu Yan a huge combat power and productivity, because of the existence of the map, he can check the map at any time to distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, which means that unless he deliberately creates a trap, there will be no assassination at all.

His strength is high, and he has a map to distinguish between the enemy and us. Liu Yan always brings his guards. He is not putting on airs. It is a kind of helpless responsibility of the king. Otherwise, he often wanders around alone. How unreliable do you think such a king is?

The street is really noisy, I don't know how many people are watching, those who compete with each other have two heads-up, and there is also a group battle, the fight is very lively.

Liu Yan didn't need to observe deliberately, there were already servants from the Tingwei Office on the street, and it seemed that the number was not small.He didn't know whether the dispatch of the Ting Wei Department was ordered by Yu Yi or what, but he was satisfied with the quick response of the Ting Wei Department.

Yu Yi kept smiling bitterly: "Your Majesty, my instructions are to watch the people leave, or the court officials to enter the house and then arrest them..."

Fighting in the street, whether it is a consensual discussion or something else, is really a violation of Han law, especially when officials fight regardless of their image. If investigated, there is another crime that will cause the court to lose face. We must focus on dealing with the loss. Dismissal from office is not an injustice.

Liu Yan guessed that with the new rewards, the civil and military officers who had received titles and promotions were overjoyed, and their excitement was stimulated by alcohol and they completely forgot about Han law.

For a moment, everyone following Liu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

The face of the court is still very important. It is not just a matter of face, but also the ability to intimidate the people. Once the people no longer fear the court, the country will not be far away from chaos.

Because he didn't hide his whereabouts, Liu Yan was spotted by a team of generals who were fighting not long after he appeared. They stopped the fierce fighting immediately after they found Liu Yan on the scene. Probably because of the wine, they were also awakened immediately, and their expressions on their faces changed constantly.

As a court lieutenant, Yu Yi had the reason why the government officials from the Tingwei Office arrived early but did not arrest people immediately. He had the reason to save face for the court. On the other hand, he was still unwilling to offend so many people at once, especially when there were hussars among them. General and four generals with the word "Zheng".

Ji Chang did not appreciate Yu Yi's tact. In the final analysis, Tingwei's position was used to offend hundreds of officials and nobles.

Since the Western Han Dynasty, Ting Wei should be the king's number one eagle dog, of course, a smooth Ting Wei is not a good Ting Wei, he can't frighten all officials for the king, and it is impossible for all officials to feel close to him, and in the end he will only end up in a mess not human.

In fact, how could Yu Yi not know that Tingwei was doing the job of offending hundreds of officials?He really wanted to offend all the officials, but to offend the military all at once was too much for his little heart.

"After the widow's dismissal, I have ordered the whole city of Xiangguo to drink victories today." Liu Yan observed it, only this street has so many officials, and I don't know how many other places he didn't see.He turned to look at Yu Yi and said, "Remove the yamen servant."

Yu Yi was obviously taken aback for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he respectfully replied: "No!"

It doesn't matter whether Liu Yan gave such an order, what matters is the attitude he expresses.

It is not considered a licentious official to violate the law if there are orders in advance. Of course, there is a reason not to pursue it. A magnanimous king does not mean he is a good king, but a king who does not occasionally show a little humanity is destined to be betrayed by the congregation.

As a king, Liu Yan knows when to let go, especially when it comes to benevolent things that don't matter at all, it is a must for a king.

Since he didn't intend to pursue the case and added the order for the whole city to revel, Liu Yan asked Xun Xian to find a place and not to hinder those guys from continuing to sweat.

After discovering that the king was present, the news spread quickly, and gradually the discussion on the street stopped. It must be that some people were frightened and wanted to go to Liu Yan to plead guilty, but most of them were stopped by Xun Xian, who also reminded him What happened, in exchange for a piece of gratitude to the king.

There are very few ordinary residents in Xiangguo City. Most of the people living in the city now are the families of Baiguan or a group of servants. A few of the shops that have been opened are ordinary people, and most of them are people who are related to Baiguan, such as Baiguan. The branch of the family and so on.

What Xun Xian found for Liu Yan was a two-storey wine shop, which was located directly opposite where he could see the entire street.

"The Han Dynasty has been in a state of war all year round. Everything is focused on military affairs. There are indeed few grand events." Liu Yan was already seated, facing the once again lively street. He looked at the ministers sitting in two rows and said: " We have decided to keep only small-scale wars so that the people can cultivate their health and rest for a few years. If there are any gaps in some of the festivals of our ancestors, we should explore and promote them."

A country cannot live without festivals, and a nation should have its own festivals. Appropriate festivals will not only bring happiness to people, but also unite the country and the nation, and release depression and pressure.

So far, the Han family has quite a few festivals, the biggest and most important being the Winter Solstice Festival.The Winter Solstice Festival is as important as the modern Spring Festival. When the Winter Solstice Festival arrives, it is the arrival of the New Year. People are one year older, and the sun and the moon have changed their dynasties.

In addition to the Winter Solstice Festival, there are naturally many festivals, such as the Dragon Boat Festival to commemorate the great poet Qu Yuan, the Double Ninth Festival that was popular in the Warring States Period, the Qiqiao Festival for women's joy, and the Qixi Festival that the world's idiots love.

(Talking about Qixi Festival...a cowherd baby peeked at the fairy taking a bath, even stole the fairy's clothes, and forced the fairy to marry him. What's the matter with this festival? Is it to encourage the cowherd to learn from the cowherd? Western Valentine's Day is almost the same , it was a boy who seduced a wealthy girl, and because of the disastrous consequences, it was widely circulated and formed a festival. Without exception, the parents of the two women played the role of villains in it. Why are the parents of the women in the world so unlucky.)
The Central Plains has been ravaged by the barbarians for decades, and it is difficult for people to survive, so there is no time to go to festivals and so on.In the turbulent Central Plains, because people are precarious, cultural gaps are very common. After all, if there is no elder to mention it, how would the younger generation know what festival is, and that festival will disappear after a long time.

There is a more obvious example. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, there was a custom of eating wontons. It was because the Huns in the north often harassed the frontiers, and the people had no peace.At that time, there were two leaders of the Hun clan and the Tun clan in the Xiongnu tribe, who were very cruel.The people hated it so much that they used meat fillings to wrap it into wontons and called them "wontons" after taking the sounds of "hun" and "tun".He eats his hatred and hopes to quell the war and live a peaceful life.Since wontons were first made on the winter solstice, every household eats wontons on the winter solstice.

Nowadays, people still eat wontons during the Winter Solstice Festival, but not many people know the origin of wontons and why they eat wontons.

Liu Yanzheng and Ji Chang were talking about the festivals held by the Han family. There was a "dong dong dong" stamping sound from the stairs, but it was Xun Xian who came up to report that General Hussar and four generals at the level of the Four Expeditions wanted to see them.

With Liu Yan's consent, after Xun Xian went down, there was another "dong dong dong" sound on the stairs. Ran Min came up first, followed by Lu Tai, Huan Wenwen and Li Tan.

Almost as soon as the visitor was greeted, Xun Xian came up again and reported that Sang Yu, Cai You and other nine ministers, as well as Zhonglang General Qian Jiantong, Li Kuang, Xie An and others, were a large group of people requesting an audience.

"Fortunately, this place is big enough." Xu Zheng asked hesitantly, "Whose property is it?"

When the king came, the people in the wine shop became idlers, and they were replaced by cooks and maids from the palace to serve. Naturally, no one could answer Xu Zheng.

The current building layout is very particular. As long as a store is open for service, there must be a place reserved for special people. The location where Liu Yan and others are located is such a place.

The people who asked to see one after another came up and sat down after being greeted. Those who were well-dressed would look at the topless one with strange eyes, and the topless one was naturally the one who took off the court clothes and didn't put them on when they were discussing with others just now.

"Hey." Ran Min said with a little red face, proudly: "Just now, Min was one against three, and the three generals lost to Min."

Lu Tai, Huan Wen, and Li Tan, who were sitting next to Ran Min, immediately glared at them. The three of them besieged Ran Min, but they really couldn't beat them. It would be a loss to speak out, but Ran Min didn't need to say it on this occasion. Bar?

Ran Min's words elicited a burst of laughter, and of course Liu Yan also laughed.

Speaking of which, Ran Min's overlord reincarnation is not a joke, and almost no one can win in a duel.He also had the experience of riding alone in the battle. He rushed left and right in the enemy's battle with a single horse.

"I didn't expect all the ministers to be here." Liu Yan raised the wine cup and gestured, "Let's drink together."

In the midst of the response, those who could sit down raised their wine cups and drank in one gulp, but the mood of drinking may be different, especially Sang Yu who was summoned by Liu Yan immediately after learning that Ji Chang and Xu were going to court.
