Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 733
The night is deep.

Sitting in the Hall of Houde, holding his newly born son, Liu Xi couldn't keep his mouth shut for joy. He really loved this son so much. Since his grandfather, the emperor had a family early, and he was also the eldest son of the first child. , At this age, it is really not easy to hold a son. The little guy has grown up a lot compared to when he was just born. Just like this, a newborn child grows up very quickly.

The queen is still in the sick bed, and Liu Xi doesn't want the maids to take care of the little guy. What's amazing is that even at night, the little guy doesn't cry or make trouble. There are many servants who say that His Highness is miraculous. Liu Xi doesn't understand these rumors, but compared to Princess Du Yang, this guy is indeed very well-behaved, and he seldom cries. That is, he eats more breast milk. But these are small problems.

At night, Liu Xi had to deal with the papers submitted by Liu Bei anyway, so he had to stay up all night, so he just let the maids stay outside the door, put the little guy in his arms, and started to get busy with his own affairs. There were cushions on both knees, the little guy would cry a few times occasionally, Liu Xi just coaxed the little guy, and the little guy would calm down, Liu Xi was so busy, and after a long time, most of the things in hand were completed up.

Only then did Liu Xi hold the little guy in his arms, and looked at him seriously, the more he looked at him, the more he fell in love with him.

"My son, what shall I name you?"

"Sigh, all the good names have been taken up by your ancestors, and you still have to avoid taboos. I really have a headache. How about calling me Rui instead?"

Liu Xi talked to himself and pondered for a long time, but he didn't dare to make a decision.

"It's better to choose a nickname. My nickname is Mastiff. Of course you have to be called Tiger with your physique!"

"Ahu!" Liu Xi called out, the little guy twisted his body, but he didn't respond, his eyes were blurred, and he looked a little tired. Liu Xi hugged him, swayed gently, and said in a low voice: "Hu Son, don't sleep, I'm going to take you to have a look at this palace, from now on, you will be the third master in your palace!" Liu Xi carefully hugged the little guy and stood up.

The little guy was wrapped tightly. When Liu Xi walked out of the Hall of Houde, several court ladies were chatting outside the door. When they saw the emperor coming out, they all fell silent and lowered their heads. Liu Xi looked at them and smiled. Said: "It's hard work for you, go back and rest, I'm going to take Hu'er out for a walk, if he keeps crying, I'll look for you again!" The maids nodded and left the place slowly .

Qi Yue stood in the distance and was reprimanding several small yellow gates. Seeing the Son of Heaven approaching, he also rushed over, stood on tiptoe, looked at His Highness, Liu Xi waved his hand, and said, "I'm taking the little ones with you." Guy go around, you just wait here!", Qi Yue nodded, and Liu Xi hugged the little guy and left here.

In the night sky, there is a clear moon hanging. In the garden in the distance, there are no more frogs. In this season, there will probably be no frogs. This makes the surroundings extraordinarily quiet, extraordinarily quiet, quiet It was as if Liu Xi was cut off from the world, except for the child in his hands, there was nothing else in the world. Liu Xi walked in the corridor, and the distance was faint, and Liu Xi couldn't even feel his own breathing.

Only the heart was still beating, and only the little guy in his arms was still writhing.

As if in another world, Liu Xi looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar Qiongyuan.

In the distance, there seemed to be two figures standing, in the same posture, holding the heavy child in the same hands.

The earliest figure maintained the appearance of walking forward, but his whole body was bent. It seemed to be scarred and tortured. There was still a dagger stuck in his chest. He stretched his hands as far as possible to protect the little guy in his arms.

"My son argues that since I became the throne, I have never dared to relax for a day, and I am extremely tired. Sometimes, I even thought, if I hadn't been to the river to catch that big fish at that time, wouldn't I be so tired?" It's going to be so exhausting," he whispered.

Behind him, is the second figure. He is enveloped by the shadow of the first figure, and he is completely invisible. Behind him, there are countless iron chains, which seem to be tied with countless heavy objects. Dragging these chains, he walked step by step under the shadows, with his head down, depressed.

"My son Mastiff, since I was born, I have been full of worries and at a loss. Father, you are a holy son of heaven who is comparable to filial piety and filial piety. Ever since I was born, you have placed high hopes on me. It's just that no matter how hard I try, I can't get his approval."

Liu Xi could only look forward, he couldn't see himself, he couldn't see what was on him, he picked up the child in his arms, stared into his eyes, and said: "My son, I Ever since I was born, I have tasted all the ups and downs. You and my mother often quarreled. Seeing them quarreling, I was really scared. You are very strict with me. I have never seen his gentle appearance. I can only hide, hide everything, dare not reveal my ambitions, dare not reveal my talents, even, I have to count whether I cry or laugh."

"Now, the situation in the world has improved. I killed my uncle in pain. I lost my love and my favorite mother. No one in the world can be my confidant. Only you, you are my eldest son. In the future, you will also be the emperor of this big man. Dahan Jiangshan must not be lost in the hands of you and my father and son!!!"

"Nowadays, the world is peaceful and the world is governed. However, I know that I am far inferior to my father no matter whether I govern politics, know people, or go on an expedition. However, I will definitely not disappoint my father. He has laid the foundation for a prosperous world. , this prosperous age will continue in the hands of you and my father and son, you must be better than me!! I must never let you down!!"

"Now, it is a prosperous age like never before. The country is strong, the people are rich, the soldiers are strong, the ministers are capable, the treasury is sufficient, there are no strong enemies outside, and there are no worries inside. The prosperity left by the father and grandfather, I will make him even better Brilliant, I want the world to surrender, no matter the Guishuang Great Qin, wherever I know, the flag of the great man will be planted, and the people who recite my name will live a prosperous and happy life! This prosperous world will be handed over to you sooner or later , I will do everything for you, but you must keep this glory!!!
At that moment, the two turned their heads, and the eyes of the grandparent and grandson seemed to gather together.

Liu Xi let out a long sigh. At that moment, all the scenes disappeared. The little guy was in his arms, sleeping soundly. In the distance, Qi Yue led a group of yellow gates, standing motionless. Like a dream, Liu Xi smiled wryly, hugged the child, and left the corridor step by step.

The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate, and the guard was about to go forward to drive him away, but Liu Bei hurriedly got off the carriage. The guard was stunned, and stopped quickly, it was dangerous, but, no, Liu Sikong Isn't your car like this?What's going on?Su Wei met with Sikong, and one of them asked: "Sikong, you have changed the car." Before he finished speaking, Liu Bei hurried away from him.

The old guards are a little confused, isn't Sikong usually like this?
Isn't it only Cao Situ who is in such a hurry?Where is that Sikong who usually stops to chat with us for a long time without being in a hurry?

Liu Bei quickly walked into the palace, and Huangmen led him to Houde Hall.

Entering Houde Hall, the emperor was reviewing the memorial, raised his head, Liu Bei hurriedly paid respects, and just now sat beside the emperor, took out a list from his sleeve and put it on the case, Liu Bei frowned, Seriously said: "Your Majesty, I have already prepared the list. This is the No. 13 change. This time the change was made after discussions among the three lords and nine ministers. stop"

Liu Xi nodded, and took the list from him. This list is naturally the list of officials in various counties and counties. If Liu Bei wants to develop the region, he must have those capable ministers, so the governors of all places need Seriously, what's more, Liu Xi intends to abolish governors within ten years and set up state pastors. These state pastors don't know how to control the military, but they can mobilize prefects from various places and implement policies.

This policy was implemented by Emperor Xiaokang back then. However, he only implemented it in Liangzhou, Yangzhou and other regions, and did not spread it to the whole country. However, Liu Xi dared to do so, mainly because the world was peaceful and the soldiers of local counties were also abolished. However, the people's heart is for the big man, even if the state shepherd has an unruly heart, how can he implement it?However, after ten years, this policy will definitely be abolished, and Liu Xi does not want to leave any hidden dangers for future generations.

Liu Xi picked up the list and looked at it seriously.

"Sili Lieutenant Zhuge Jin."

"Liangzhou Mumaojie."

"Xizhou Mu Chen Deng."

"Bingzhou Mu Chengli."

"Youzhou Shepherd Liu Ye."

"Ningzhou Shepherd Zhang Zhao."

"Jingzhou Shepherd Zhongyou."

"Yizhou Makitafeng."

"Yangzhou Mu Jushou,"

"Zhuge Liang, the shepherd of Yuzhou."

"Yanzhou Musi Ma Yi."

"Xuzhou Mu Lusu."

"Jizhou Mu Jiangji."

"Jiaozhou Shepherd Gu Yong."

"Xinzhou Mu Caoren."

"Hezhou Shepherd Lu Yu."

"Qingzhou Muguoyuan."

Liu Xi looked at it carefully for a while, and then said: "Let Jiang Ji and Guoyuan change."

Liu Bei was taken aback for a moment, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Well, not bad, good, very good, with these big talents in the local area, within ten years, hahaha, the prosperity of the big man is just around the corner, great!" Liu Xi said with a smile, and hearing Liu Xi's smile Liu Bei felt a lot more at ease. In order to make this list, God knows how much energy he spent. The officials in the court and the central government had different opinions on this list. It took Liu Bei more than a month to convince the rest. .

Fortunately, Cao Cao and Sun Jian didn't say anything about this promotion, otherwise, Liu Bei really didn't know if he could make this list.

Liu Bei discussed with the emperor for a long time, and after two ministers, he just walked out of the palace. At this time, he was obviously much calmer. When he walked out of the palace, he even apologized to the guard, saying: "There is something urgent just now. So I can't stay here, and I hope you will forgive me!" Su Wei didn't dare to accept the gift of the three princes, so he quickly said that he didn't dare, Liu Bei looked outside the door, looked at it for a long time, and then asked: "Where is my car?"

Su Wei pointed to the carriage in the distance and asked, "Isn't that?"

"That's not it!"

"But Sikong just came in that car."

Liu Bei was stunned, and hurried to the carriage. A groom was sitting in the carriage. When he saw Liu Bei coming, he shivered and hurried to see him.

"Who are you?"

"I'm the groom of Lieutenant Sili"

"Then why are you here?"

"Just now, my Patriarch and Sikong were discussing important matters in Sikong's mansion. Later, Sikong, you came out, got into my car, and told me to go to the palace quickly. The grassroots dare not disobey." The groom said fearfully, just a few minutes later Before Shichen, Liu Bei jumped into the carriage and asked him to go directly to the palace. As a groom, how could he dare to refuse?This is Sangong, he didn't dare to say a word, he rushed here with his head down, and he didn't dare to leave, so he could only wait bitterly.

Liu Bei was a little annoyed, helpless, after a while, he just said: "My fault, my fault, you take the money"

"Sikong. No need."

"You take it!!"

"Go back and pick up your Patriarch now. If he asks, you can tell me that I have taken a fancy to your driving skills and ordered you to take me to the palace. In this way, he won't blame you or make things difficult for you. If If he makes things difficult for you, come to my mansion, and I will give you an errand."

"Thank you, thank you Sikong!"

At the same time, Ting Wei.

Man Chong was working in the study, when suddenly a person rushed in!
"Manchu!! I want to report to the official!! I want to report to the official!!"

"I was discussing important matters in the Sikong Mansion just now, and when I came out to see, my car is gone!!"

"It's been two hours, and there are no people, no cars, are the thieves in Luoyang so courageous?!? In front of the Sikong Mansion! Stealing Captain Sili's carriage!! They even abducted me A groom!!"

"My life is miserable!"
