Han Dao world

Chapter 184

With the support of Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi, Shi Sun Rui left in a hurry.

He had to command the army to cross the river, so he didn't have time to gossip and discuss those details.

Zhao Wen then presided over the meeting, but stroked his beard for a long time without speaking.Accidentally, several beards were broken, and he was so distressed that he shivered.

"Zirou, don't hesitate, get a charter quickly." Zhang Xi urged.

"How do you get the charter?" Zhao Wen asked back: "How does the edict to Yuan Shao look up? Is it the governor of Bohai or the shepherd of Jizhou?"

Zhang Xi froze immediately, and closed his mouth embarrassingly.

This is a big problem and an unavoidable problem.

In terms of the imperial edict—regardless of whether the edict was the original intention of the emperor—Yuan Shao's official position is only the prefect of Bohai, which is legal.

General Cheqi is his own name, and Jizhou Mu was taken from Han Fu.

If the imperial edict to Yuan Shao admits the reality, it is tantamount to allowing this kind of behavior, and the imperial court will be like Zhou Tianzi admitting that the three families are divided into Jin Dynasty, and it will be impossible to restore the dignity of the imperial court, and no one will take the imperial edict seriously.

If you don't admit the reality, it will be tantamount to tearing faces with Yuan Shao, and there is no possibility of relaxation.

It is almost impossible for Yuan Shao to accept the reality, go to Jizhou Mu, and wait for the court's worship.

Zhao Wen sighed repeatedly, wishing he could pull Shi Sun Rui over and scold him.

But he also knew that Shi Sunrui was under more pressure than him.

The emperor asked him to act as Taiwei, which was not only to fulfill the previous promise, but also to test him.

If Shi Sun Rui could not complete the task of quelling Wei's rebellion, the fake Taiwei would not be able to be real, and there would be no talk of regaining military power.

So Shi Sunrui couldn't retreat, and neither could he, so he had to bite the bullet.

After thinking about it, Zhao Wen wrote a letter, asking the emperor to issue an edict, reprimanding Yuan Shao for using Guo's plans.

He was lucky enough to ride a general on a chariot and lead Jizhou Mu to call Yuan Shao to test the meaning of the emperor.

After reading Zhao Wen's letter, Liu Xie gently placed it on the case and raised his eyelids.

"Situ, does Yuan Shao still have the court in mind?"

Zhao Wen was sweating like rain. "Your Majesty... why did you say that?"

Liu Xie ignored him, and then asked another question. "In these years, the imperial court has struggled to survive, but has Yuan Shao ever had a little help?"

Zhao Wen didn't dare to speak any more, just kowtowed repeatedly.

Although the son of heaven's voice was not loud, his tone was very strong, and he didn't mean to make peace with Yuan Shao at all.

"Situ, Yuan Shao obeyed the eunuch's reconciliation, not because he had the imperial court in mind. What he wants to do is not Duke Huan of Qi." Liu Xie gently pushed Zhao Wen's letter back. "I advise Situ not to take chances. If you fail to seek skin from a tiger, you will be hurt by a tiger instead. The court only has a little face left, so don't give it to others easily. I have worked hard with all the lords, not to make him Yuan Shao's wedding dress."

Zhao Wen salutes again. "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to punish you."

"A wise man has a lot of worries, and there is bound to be a mistake." Liu Xie said lightly: "Just be more cautious in the future."

After speaking, Liu Xie turned his head and said to Cai Yan who was at the side: "Today's affairs will not be included in the daily notes for the time being."

Cai Yan responded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Wenru quickly took the letter on the case, stuffed it into his sleeve, bowed again, and withdrew.

After leaving the tent, a gust of wind blew, Zhao Wen felt chills all over his body, and shivered involuntarily.

Inside the tent, Cai Yan finished writing the last word and put away the wooden slips.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to break with Yuan Shao?"

Liu Xie snorted: "He wants to occupy Jizhou in a legitimate way without taking anything out. How can such a good thing come about? Anyway, the imperial edict is not waste paper. If you want it, you have to pay a little price."

Cai Yan couldn't help reminding: "A gentleman should be cautious about his independence, and His Majesty should be even more cautious in his words. If this is recorded in the daily notes, it is definitely not suitable for a sage."

Liu Xie sighed. "I'm afraid I won't be able to be a holy king."

"Why did His Majesty say that?"

"The inner sage and the outer king are easier said than done. You are familiar with history books, so you know who can be worthy of this phrase throughout the ages?" Liu Xie shook his head. "I don't dare to aim too high, I just hope that I can do the things in front of me well, and be worthy of this life, and I will be satisfied."

Cai Yan thought for a while. "Could it be that in His Majesty's mind, Yao is not considered an inner sage and an outer king?"

"Dear and virtuous, he didn't even teach his son well, he wasn't even a qualified father, and he talked about inner sages and outer kings. And according to the theory of the relationship between heaven and man, in the end of Yao's world, there were floods year after year, and the world was in soup. It can be seen that God is not satisfied with him."

Cai Yan's face froze, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "What about Shun?"

"When Shun was in power, there were also floods year after year, and his son Shang Jun was also unworthy."

"This..." Cai Yan was speechless.

The emperor was obviously talking nonsense, but she couldn't find a reason to refute it.

Seeing Xueba Cai Yan being speechless, Liu Xie couldn't help laughing out loud, and the depression that Zhao Wen had made just now finally dissipated.

Cai Yan was very helpless. "Your Majesty, smooth talk is by no means a virtue of the Son of Heaven."

"Ling Shi is right, clever words are definitely not a virtue." Liu Xie said, before Cai Yan was relieved, he added another sentence. "But this is not my eloquent rhetoric, but it is recorded in the history books, and I expressed my feelings. You can't justify yourself, just say that I am eloquent, this is a crime you want to add."

Cai Yan was tongue-tied and embarrassed.

-

Zhao Wen was ill, with persistent high fever and weakness.

When Liu Xie heard the news, he went to visit Zhao Wen in person despite everyone's dissuasion.

Zhao Wen struggled to get up and pleaded guilty to Liu Xie.

Liu Xie tried Zhao Wen's forehead with the back of his hand, and it was indeed hot, not pretending to be sick.

"Did Situ suffer from the cold physically or mentally?" Liu Xie looked at Zhao Wen with a smile. "A man should be flying male, but female should be safe. Situ's words are still in my ears, which is inspiring. Now it's time for male flying, why is Situ falling ill instead?"

Zhao Wen smiled wryly. "Your Majesty, I'm already in my sixtieth year. How dare I mention the arrogant words I made when I was young. I'm also fortunate to be able to see the chance of the great man's rejuvenation at this time and here. However, time is not forgiving, and I am afraid that there will be no days left." Many. I am ill at this time, and I can't tell if it will come back again. I have a few words from the bottom of my heart, and I want to share them with Your Majesty."

Liu Xie waved Zhao Wen's hand. "Situ Yan is serious. You just caught a cold, and you will be fine after a few days of rest. Why is this so?"

Zhao Wen held Liu Xie in his backhand, and said earnestly: "Fifty is not a premature age. I live nine out of fifty, and I am satisfied. If your majesty can listen to what I say, I will die without regret."

Liu Xie sighed. "Situ must not be like this, I heard it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Wen took a few breaths. "Your Majesty is determined to forge ahead and aim at Zhongxing. This is the great fortune of the great man. However, the great man has accumulated many evils. Even if there is a fairy medicine, it is difficult to rise in one day. Dong Zi said: Correcting the way does not seek its own benefits, and cultivating its principles does not Urge for success. Your Majesty should use both civil and martial arts, and have a certain degree of relaxation. After thirty years of merit, peace will come."

Liu Xie stared at Zhao Wen for a long time, pondering for a long time.

"Although I can't fully comprehend Situ's words, I am willing to give it a try. How about this, the imperial edict will not work for the time being, and Situ will write a letter to Yuan Shao. If he can sincerely correct his mistakes and be loyal to the imperial court, I will not blame the past, and worship him as the chariot general, Jizhou Mu. If he is willing, he can enter the court and take charge of the government, and I will treat him as a general."

Surprised and delighted, Zhao Wen sat up and clasped Liu Xie tightly with both hands. "Your Majesty, are you serious?"

"My word will be practiced. Yuan Shao is willing to come, and I will treat him with courtesy. Yuan Shaoruo is obsessed with his obsession, and he is lucky..." Liu Xie withdrew his hand, stood up, looked down at Zhao Wen, and said indifferently: If you have an axe, you must use it to show the public, don't say that you are unpredictable."
