Han Shizu

Chapter 1156 came to an abrupt end
As the biggest spy placed by the imperial court in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhong Mo also enjoyed enough rewards after Pingnan.He was included in the list of Jiangnan ministers who dealt with the aftermath. Later, he was also an important member of the purge of Jiangnan. After the situation in Jiangnan was stabilized, he was entrusted with the post of inspector.

It can be said that for Zhong Mo, Emperor Liu gave enough rewards to repay him for his merits. After all, he was in the south of the Yangtze River and secretly communicated with the imperial court.

After all, there are risks in being a [-]-year-old boy.At the same time, Zhong Mo was also an example set by Emperor Liu for the old bureaucrats and scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, and the effect was not bad.At the beginning of Pingnan, when the south of the Yangtze River was in turmoil, Zhong Mo still made some contributions to appease the hearts of the scholars.

In the process of Han Xizai's rectification of Jiangnan, many people were preserved through Zhong Mo, and in the past few years, Zhong Mo has also become a representative of Jiangnan scholars, and many old Jiangnan officials have united under Zhong Mo's wings Down.

It is a very real problem. Among the scholars, there are too many people who hold a contemptuous and shameless attitude towards Zhong Mo's conduct and integrity, but actively flatter him on the surface, and there are many who wish to replace him.

These situations in the Jiangnan officialdom were naturally heard by Emperor Liu through various channels, and it was precisely because of this that Emperor Liu questioned Zhong Mo to Wang Zhu. The word "clique formation" is used seriously.

Regarding this, Wang Zhu considered it for a while, and then reported to Emperor Liu in a pertinent tone: "Zhong Gong is a man of enlightenment, and when I come to Ren Jiangnan, I can count as my assistance and cooperation with all my heart, and there are few conflicts!"

Hearing this, Emperor Liu nodded slightly.He knew that Zhong Mo was definitely a smart person, and a smart person would not do stupid things.In fact, Emperor Liu didn't mean to target Zhong Mo when he mentioned Zhong Mo.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Chengyou asked: "I have the intention to transfer Zhong Mo to a position, either in Beijing or in Jiangxi, which one do you think is suitable?"

Wang Zhu seemed a little surprised by this, he muttered to himself, and replied: "Your Majesty, this is not something that I should ask about!"

"Haha!" Emperor Liu was stunned, looked at him twice, and then smiled: "I'm in a daze, I thought it was you before you became an imperial servant."

Naturally, Wang Zhu didn't take Emperor Liu's words seriously, but he was very cooperative on the surface, acting like he was remembering.Even in another ten years, his experience with Emperor Liu will still be a great boost to his seniority and status.

Clothes are not as good as new, people are not as good as old, the longer the time, the deeper the feelings of Emperor Liu will be for those "old people".

"Okay, it's getting late, I'm going back to the palace! You should rest earlier!" Heaved a sigh of relief, Emperor Liu said: "Tomorrow, you lead me to take a look around Jinling!"

"Yes!"

Before leaving, Emperor Liu pointed to the desk and said, "It's better to drink less wine!"

"Yes!" Wang Zhu replied.

The summer in the south of the Yangtze River is also hot, and it coincides with the rainy season. Emperor Liu did not run around in the south of the Yangtze River, and spent most of his time in Jinling.But the days are also full. He meets with representatives from all walks of life, expresses his governance philosophy, and holds various gatherings. When he has free time, he leads his wife and concubines to play around and enjoy places of interest.

I have to say that this tour is indeed the most relaxing one, with less burdens and more leisure and elegance.

Similarly, although he liked the prosperity and prosperity of Jiangnan, Emperor Liu didn't have much nostalgia for it. This land, if you let it bloom like a brocade, is not Emperor Liu's favorite after all.

Until the middle of June, I experienced everything I needed to see, see, and visit. After I was satisfied, Yujia set off again, often going to Wuyue in the south of Jiangsu.There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. After seeing the splendor of Suzhou, the expectations for Hangzhou are even higher.

The great development of Hangzhou started from the period of Qian Miao. A Qiantang embankment laid the foundation for the prosperity of Hangzhou.Of course, Emperor Liu had to be more serious when going down to Wuyue. After all, the rebellion that almost spread across the entire territory at the beginning caused a lot of shock to the court.

Walking slowly along the way, Emperor Liu was also satisfied with the results of the inspection.At least from the voices and opinions he heard, most people are satisfied with life under the rule of the Han Dynasty.

Most of the people here refer to ordinary Guizhou heads. The implementation of the imperial court's new policy of opening treasures has really lightened their burden.Those who really miss the past and are dissatisfied with the status quo must belong to those middle and upper buildings.

However, although a major turmoil caused huge losses, it also cleared up many chronic illnesses and greatly eased the original social contradictions.Today's Liangzhe has gradually become the "shape" that Emperor Liu wanted.

After setting foot in the south of the Yangtze River, Emperor Liu's itinerary took more water routes. He originally wanted to go out to sea by boat to experience the wind and waves of the sea, but finally gave up.It was not only the unanimous opposition of the accompanying officials, but also because Emperor Liu himself was worried about his safety, and his impromptu thoughts were eventually suppressed by himself.After all, Emperor Liu is a person who has to think a lot when riding a river boat. For him, it is better to keep his feet on the ground.

The chief administrative officer of Liangzhe was Lu Yin, and he was sent to Hangzhou because of his talent in governance. He was a man with a strong hand.Although he has been in office for less than a year, his prestige has already been established. According to reports, no one dares to violate his orders.

It has been almost three years since Lu Yin left Ding You, and Emperor Liu has not seen him for three years.When the monarchs and ministers met again in Hangzhou, Emperor Liu naturally seemed very happy and showed a particularly close relationship, which was also giving him a platform and supporting him.

Originally, according to the established itinerary, after visiting Wuyue, Emperor Liu would go south to Fujian, then to Guangdong and Guangxi, and then go north to return to the Central Plains via the two lakes. In this way, he basically traveled all over southern China.

As for the southern Taoism, there are four that he values, Jiangnan, Wuyue, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Lianghu.There is no need to mention Wu Yue in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is because he wants to pay close attention to the war in Annan in Guangdong and Guangxi.

That's right, after capturing the central and northern parts of Annan, the rested Han army naturally continued to advance southward, but the progress was relatively slow.The leader of the Ding Department had a very hard life, so he insisted on uniting with various forces in the south to organize an army against the imperial court.Of course, it was also the strong dragon of the Great Han who returned to the Indochina Peninsula, which caused the situation to change and the situation became increasingly complicated.This also aroused Emperor Liu's concerns. The last thing he wanted to see was that Annan would become a swamp and the court would sink into it.

As far as the two lakes are concerned, they are the key development areas of the imperial court, especially Hunan. In the past ten years, there have been almost constant good news. Emperor Liu also has a hope in his heart that "the lakes are familiar and the world is full", so he also plans to go and see for himself. .

However, all plans came to an end with a bad news from Tokyo.The end point of Emperor Liu's southern tour also ended in Hangzhou.

In July of the fifth year of Kaibao, Emperor Liu issued an edict to return to Beijing. After the four-month tour, he left in an extremely hasty manner, abandoned a large number of accompanying people, and returned to Kaifeng almost day and night.
