Thus, the prince got his wish and met Liu Ziyu, whom he had admired for a long time.

It's just that this guy is stronger than Zhao Huan imagined.

Swallowing secretly, Zhao Huan smiled and said, "Such a hero should be the mainstay of the country."

"Your Highness, thank you." Liu Kai laughed.

Zhao Huan said: "I heard that Yanxiu was a man of fortitude and proficiency in classics and history when he was ten years old.

Now, he is naturally proficient in strategy and martial arts, and it is time to serve the court. "

"Fifty times to shoot the bow, three hundred arrows is a misrepresentation." Liu Kai corrected a sentence, half-jokingly said: "Even if you have that strength, you can't afford that expense."

Zhao Huan reckoned that this statement was calculated by those who knew the goods.

Fifty bows with the divine arm are worth [-] ordinary bows.

At this time, in the Song army, ordinary archers were exhausted after opening their bows twelve or three times.

Such excellent as Bingchen, but twenty times is the limit.

Liu Ziyu opened his divine arm bow fifty times, which is no longer a normal person.

Of course, normal people can't get into the eyes of the prince.

What made Zhao Huan scratch his head was that Liu Kai had no intention of letting Liu Ziyu become an official, otherwise he wouldn't be so casual.

Liu Kai shouted: "Da Lang, my servant from the East Palace is here, and come to pay my respects."

Hearing this, Liu Ziyu put down his bow, walked up to him, bowed and said, "Your appearance is disheveled, it's really rude, Your Highness forgive me."

"Come uninvited, it's my fault." Zhao Huan helped Liu Ziyu up and asked, "Does Yanxiu have a job?"

"For five years, Yinbu was an official, and he followed his father as the appeasement department to write suitable characters. He has no job now." Liu Ziyu replied.

"Such a talent, but he can only be promoted from the ninth rank, and all the lords of the court are blind!" Zhao Huan said angrily.

The acting skills are slightly exaggerated, but won the approval of Liu's father and son.

Liu Kai has been dissatisfied with the status quo of the court for a long time, but he is soft-spoken and powerless.

Liu Ziyu's literary and military strategy is excellent, but he can't use it, and of course he is even more unhappy.

So, Zhao Huan said: "Today, I invited the supervising army to the court, but I thought it would not be allowed. However, the emperor has already decided to reward me. I think it will not be difficult to restore the three hundred guards. This is the way to be greedy for the big and get the small.

Right now, there are only fifty personal guards in the Eastern Palace, so I don't know if Yanxiu is willing to help me? "

Liu Ziyu said: "I am willing to enter the East Palace at the border to be the canary, how can I fulfill my lifelong ambition."

He refused directly, simply and neatly, without saving any face for the prince.

What can Zhao Huan do?Of course, continue to persuade.

"The court is dim, and Yanxiu is too talented to be used. Instead of wasting time idle, why not help me train my soldiers."

"Three hundred soldiers, what can we do?" Liu Ziyu smiled.

"Not a soldier! My personal guard, needless to say, practice martial arts diligently, you must be able to read and write, and learn strategy.

In time, if you don't ask everyone to be handsome, you only need thirty generals. Will this be of great use? "

Thirty generals, based on an average of 15 soldiers per general, can get [-] elite soldiers, which is already quite good.

Song Taizong conquered Liao, and the army under his command was no more than 20.

The current situation in the Song Dynasty is that there are many soldiers and few generals. The forbidden army is more than [-].

However, there are very few generals who can integrate soldiers well.

Therefore, as long as Zhao Huan trains [-] generals, he can pull up the troops in minutes.

Therefore, Liu Ziyu looked at Liu Kai.

Zhao Huan continued: "Yanxiu don't have to hesitate, even if I can't expand the number of personal guards, I can still support three hundred guards in the name of guests, but I can't be the head coach, and it's useless to recruit people.

Even if there are only three hundred seventeen or eighteen youngsters, three to five years of education can be of great use. Yanxiu will not be buried in Wudong Palace. "

Zhao Huan really wanted to take him under his command.

Liu Ziyu followed Liu Wei to guard Yuezhou and Zhending, and the territory was not lost.

When the Jin people took the opportunity to go straight to Tokyo, Liu Ziyu guarded the Bian River, and the Jin people could not enter, so they had to make a detour.

In the third year of Jianyan, Liu Ziyu served as the military counselor of the Jiankang Imperial Camp Envoy Division and the secretarial staff of the Privy Council. He always patrolled and inspected Fan Qiong's self-respect.

Later, in Qinzhou, the five-way army was in charge, and successively regained the lost land in Yan'an, Jinning, Linfu, Lufang, Gongxian and other counties.

Four years later, the Jin soldiers invaded the south. Zhang Jun refused to listen to his words and was defeated. His morale was depressed, the people's hearts were lax, and there were fierce discussions about retreating. commit.

Due to successive years of war and famine in Hanzhong, Liu Ziyu asked to be transferred to Hanzhong.After taking office, he "opened and closed business and transported millet, made good neighbors and aided, ordered soldiers to train soldiers, and waited for the enemy in danger", which won the support of the army and the people.

In the first year of Shaoxing, the Jin soldiers invaded Dasan Pass, and Liu Ziyu led an army of [-] to defend the pass, but the Jin soldiers could not go down.

The Jin soldiers attacked Fengxiang again, and Liu Ziyu resisted with a solid wall and cleared the field.

Unwilling to withdraw his army, General Sa Liha sent ten envoys to persuade him to surrender. Liu Ziyu killed nine and released one, showing his determination to resist.

He also used guerrilla attacks against the Jin soldiers, forcing them to retreat, and then chased them down. They captured countless gains and recovered the three states of Jin, Jun, and Fang one after another.

Later, because of framing and demoting Baizhou, he promoted Jiangzhou Taiping Temple, was reinstated in Huiyou Pavilion, and changed his knowledge to Quanzhou, Fujian.

It is clean and honest in government, attaches great importance to the education of folk customs, and devotes itself to the establishment of schools.

In the 11th year, as the appeasement envoy along the river and the magistrate of Zhenjiang, the Jin people went south to discuss peace under the banner of "Jiangnan Fuyu". Liu Ziyu was so angry that he sent troops to forcibly pull down the banner.

Therefore, he was dismissed from office, and returned to the temple, and did not resume his post. He was 45 years old at the time.

When he lived in seclusion in his hometown, he set up a school, taught rural children, and raised and educated the young Zhu Xi.

Capable of both literature and martial arts, wisdom and courage, how could Zhao Huan not love him?

Just unrequited love.

"I am very grateful for the crown prince's wrong love, but I secretly think that experiencing the place will benefit the people of the country." Liu Ziyu said.

"Yanxiu is just following Mr. Liu. With Mr. Liu's ability, the effect is actually insignificant..."

"This is the filial piety of the son, not the function."
