Han Shizu

Chapter 1567 Rarely Active
After a few twists and turns, Wang Ni and Xu Xifang were able to meet Emperor Liu in Qionglin Garden. Emperor Liu, who had already received the news, showed his kind face of a loving father in heaven, and comforted Wang Ni who had experienced the pain of losing his father.

While expressing regret and condolences for Wang Zhaozhi's death, he also quickly agreed to the two's farewell, firmly supported Wang Ni's succession, and asked the Ministry of Rites to send someone as an envoy to accompany Wang Ni back to the country, to endorse him on the platform, and let Wang Ni this The young man was very moved.

After seeing Emperor Liu, Wang Ni was completely relieved, and on the way back to the city after leaving Qionglin Garden, he was so excited that he couldn't help showing a little smile.

Obviously, the promise of a big man is more important than a high-ranking minister like Xu Xi. As long as Emperor Liu supports him with a word, he can return to the country to inherit the throne of the King of Koryo without worrying about other troubles.

"This Wang Ni is an interesting person!" In the cool flower hall, Liu Yang, who was called to play chess, accompanied him to play chess. When Wang Ni was mentioned, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Hearing this evaluation, Liu Yang, who was serious about seeing and dismantling moves with Emperor Liu on the chessboard, couldn't help but show a little strange look on his face, as if he didn't know how to answer these words.

Noticing his expression, Emperor Liu said, "Why, you also think Wang Ni is a little ridiculous?"

Liu Yang nodded and said: "At a young age, I was greedy for enjoyment, indulged in fun, and spent money like water. As a crown prince, I really can't imagine that the subjects of Koryo will have such a master in the future. How dim and gloomy it is."

Hearing his emotion, Emperor Liu couldn't help laughing: "Is this a good thing or a bad thing for the big man?"

Immediately afterwards, he said: "Then Wang Zhao can be regarded as a promising king. He reformed the evils, made great efforts to govern, and strengthened the king's power. As a result, he was ambitious and tried to challenge the authority of the great Han. In the end, he brought so much turmoil and loss to Koryo. ?
Although Wang Ni is unbearable, for the big man, such a docile vassal monarch will improve the relationship between the two countries.Of course, no matter how hard he will be in Koryo in the future, and where Koryo will go, the threat to the big man will be weakened!
When Wang Zhao came to the court, although he expressed his surrender, he also implicitly expressed to me that he hoped that the court would withdraw the Donghai Navy and return Jeju Island to Korea.

Obviously, as a vassal state of the great Han, a monarch like Wang Zhao is very unfriendly, and would rather have a mediocre ruler in power! "

Hearing Emperor Liu's blatant statement, Liu Yang also chuckled twice, and said: "Actually, I also understand that it's not about how absurd and stupid Wang is, but about this person's attitude towards the court. He has been in Tokyo for two years, although It's ridiculous to play, but from the side, it can also be known that this person agrees with the big man very much.

For so many years, how many foreign nobles have lingered in the prosperous atmosphere of the Han Dynasty, which has greatly increased their favor with the court. After they return, they will also publicize the prosperity and strength of the Han Dynasty more, making the strength of the Han Dynasty more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. , only longing, not daring to rebel, this is also the invisible elimination of conflicts and disasters."

Hearing what Liu Yang said, Emperor Liu said: "This is one of them. Then, have you ever thought about it? Although the prosperity of the big man will attract the yearning of foreigners, won't it arouse their covetousness? In the past, how many barbarians did not Isn't the desire to invade the Central Plains endlessly because of China's prosperous and colorful world, the bright mountains and rivers?"

"This is indeed neglected!" Liu Yang frowned subconsciously.Perhaps Liu Yang himself didn't realize that the frequency of his frowning has become more and more frequent these years, which is probably due to the pressure brought by responsibility.

Seeing his reaction, Emperor Liu said calmly: "There is nothing to be anxious about. As long as the big man is strong enough to protect the people of the country, why should he be afraid of covetousness from foreign countries? As long as he is prepared for danger in times of peace, don't slack off!
But having said that, people from foreign lands can linger and yearn for the prosperity of the great man, and the common people can be proud and immersed in the prosperity of the country, but those in power in the court must keep a clear head at all times. If even you people are intoxicated Of which, sooner or later something will go wrong! "

"Yes! Father's teaching, I will keep it in my heart!" Liu Yang said immediately.

However, after saying this, Emperor Liu showed a little disappointment. Obviously, he knew in his heart that the truth was the truth, and how difficult it was to do it!
When he is in power, he can always supervise and spur him. Even if Liu Yang succeeds to the throne in the future, he believes that he can correctly lead the big man to continue to move forward. What about the king who has passed away?What about the reborn king?
Thinking about it deeply, what comes to mind is a heavy-hearted answer
Unconsciously, there was some resentment in his tone, Emperor Liu said: "If you say that this king is a young man, although his behavior is a little absurd, it will not cause any serious harm to the country.

Wang Ni may not be a good weapon, but how can my son, Ni's brothers, and the princes of the big man get any better?Don't talk about others, let's talk about Liu Shu, who has received the same education as you since he was a child, and with a ruler and whip on his body, he still can't help but act recklessly. If I hadn't been suppressing him, the absurd things he could do would be worse than Wang Yu's. Even more! "

Hearing Emperor Liu's reprimand, Liu Yang smiled embarrassingly, and said, "Father still loves the ninth brother deeply and takes great responsibility. Since the lifting of the ban on the Zongzheng Temple, the ninth brother has matured a lot. It is also a good idea for Fengchenying to participate in the training." Work hard and never be late”

"You are a good brother!" Emperor Liu glanced at Liu Yang and said, "Speak for him like this? If he really changes, will he often go to Mudanfang? What is that place, can I not know? Hang up Sheep's head, selling dog meat, and places that are flashy and gaudy should really be banned!"

When Emperor Liu said this, Zhang Dejun, who was standing with Yan Tuo, couldn't help showing embarrassment. Of course, he was also aware of the situation in Mudanfang. This is a beating on yourself.

"Wang Ni and Xu Xi are probably going back to Koryo in a hurry. The Ministry of Rites sent people. You should keep an eye on them. You must arrange capable officials!" Liu Huang quickly changed the subject and urged: "In addition, order the Donghai Navy to let the Lin Renzhao personally took the people and escorted them across the sea to return to China!"

"Yes!" Liu Yangsu Rong agreed.

After so many years, the army of the great man has undergone another replacement. The old commanders and nobles who conquered the world have gradually retreated to the background or the second line, while the backbone generals of the past, as well as a large number of second-generation nobles and rising stars have gradually risen.

Today, those who are famous in the army inside and outside the Han Dynasty are no longer Murong, Chai, Gao, Zhao, Xiang, Wang, etc., but are replaced by Yang Ye, Guo Jin, Ma Renyu, Tian Zhongjin, Tian Renlang, Dong Zunhui, Liu Guangyi and other generals.

Except for Yang Ye, this group of people is only slightly weaker in terms of qualifications, but in terms of merit, combat experience, and ability to command the army, they are undoubtedly the backbone of the Han army.

Of course, the naval division is not as bright as the army generals, and the speed of replacement is much slower. Up to now, it is still the veteran Guo Tingwei who is in charge of the military affairs of the Donghai division with the strongest strength in the Han Dynasty.

Of course, some backward people have gradually risen to fame, and Lin Renzhao is one of the representative figures.In terms of qualifications and age, Lin Renzhao is not young anymore, and he is still a general of the Southern Tang Dynasty. However, he still has talents. He is proficient in both water and land warfare.

Now he manages the Denglai Navy and is responsible for the safety of the Beiyang sea area of ​​the Great Han Dynasty. He is one of the few senior generals in the navy.Of course, because of this, some gossip was unavoidable within the imperial court, because there were a large number of southern generals in the navy of the Han Dynasty, whether it was Guo Tingwei or Lin Renzhao, they were all generals from the Southern Tang Dynasty.

In this regard, Emperor Liu's attitude is also very clear, the northerners ride horses, the southerners walk in boats, and the navy, a technical arm, does not need southern soldiers, can it let the northern landlubbers?
When Xiang Xun was allowed to lead the Jingjiang army, it was difficult for the strong man. What's more, now that the unified system is unified, the north and the south are mixed, and then deliberately distinguishing between the north and the south is simply self-contradictory and self-inflicted conflict. Therefore, Emperor Liu does not care about those voices. He obeyed, but he greatly appointed the naval generals in the south, after all, they are professionals.

As for the issue of loyalty, with the current situation of the big man and the authority of the imperial court, how can he be afraid of his betrayal?What's more, the navy is more dependent on the support of the imperial court than the horse infantry army, and it is easier to be controlled by the imperial court.

"My fifth brother found me this morning, hoping to represent the imperial court and accompany Wang Ni to Goryeo!" Liu Yang asked Emperor Liu for instructions.

Hearing this, Emperor Liu suddenly showed surprise, and said unexpectedly: "Why does he like to be carefree in his comfort zone? Why is he willing to travel far away?"

Liu Yangdao: "The fifth brother said that for so many years, he has not done business for the court, shared his worries for his father, and felt ashamed in his heart. In addition, he had some friendship with the king, so he moved his mind."

"I think he is also very quiet and wants to move!" Emperor Liu still had a little smile on his mouth: "However, this is also a good thing. It is rare for him to take the initiative to think of doing some errands for the court. If he agrees to his request, let him do it. Let’s go to Goryeo! The prince of the Han Dynasty went to express his condolences on behalf of the court, the court must have given Goryeo enough face!”

"Of course!" Liu Yang said, the reaction was very calm, and he just mentioned something to Liu Yun. It is natural for Emperor Liu to agree, and if he disagrees, he will do his best.

But obviously, Emperor Liu would not disagree. For the princes of the big Han, Emperor Liu was still happy for them to go out to practice. Liu Yang was also very clear about this.
