Han family achievements

Chapter 499 Chaos and Stability

Liu Bian looked in the direction of Xuzhou, smiled unconsciously, and said, "It seems that the water in Xuzhou is muddier than I expected."

He took a trip to Xuzhou, and because of his tight schedule, he didn't stay in Pingyuan County for as long as he did in Pingyuan County. He just discovered the 'living Bodhisattva' Zuo Rong.

Sima's defensive strength protects Zuo Rong, which shows that Xuzhou's fight is not bad enough, and the old forces are still strong.

Xun Yu didn't answer. He knew a little about Xuzhou's affairs, and he even knew that Zuo Rong was already a grasshopper after the fall. It only depends on what His Majesty in front of him wants to do.

"How is the planning for the water transport going on at Shangshutai?" Suddenly, Liu Bian turned to look at Xun Yu and said.

Xun Yu was startled, but quickly reacted and said, "Your Majesty, the Shangshutai is already preparing for the Canal Transport Bureau to coordinate and plan all the canal transport in our Han territory, and strive to return the power to the court within five years."

"it is good."

Liu Bian left this sentence and continued to move forward.

The reason why Zuo Rong was able to expand was because he monopolized the water transportation of Pengcheng, Guangling County and other three counties. The benefits from water transportation were beyond imagination.

"Your Majesty, how can I restore this memorial?" Xu Yan followed and asked.

Liu Bian kept walking and said, "What do you think, Prime Minister?"

Xun Yu pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, I suggest that Sima Lang be appointed as the Censor of Xuzhou Water Transport Supervision to investigate Xuzhou Water Transport."

Liu Bian raised his eyebrows.

The Prime Minister's skills are becoming more and more sophisticated.

Xun Yu followed Liu Bian and explained something intentionally, saying: "Your Majesty, Cao Cao has defeated Wuhuan and the whole country has been inspired. In addition, the emperor is about to establish a throne, so it is not appropriate to start a big war."

Liu Bian waved his hand and said: "I want to use him as a benchmark and kill him to show to the world. Let's check first and get more details. It would be more appropriate if Sima Fang is also involved."

Xun Yu's expression changed immediately, and then he grimaced and said not a word.

Sima Fang was a Mu of Xuzhou, a high-ranking official in the border area, and the Sima family was also a powerful family in the world. Who knew how big a shock the execution would cause.

"By the way, the flood season is over, and it's time to investigate the river control case." As he walked up the steps of Jiade Hall, Liu Bian's words fell back.

Xun Yu paused subconsciously, looked up at Liu Bian's back, and hesitated to speak.

No matter how many people were involved in the investigation of the river officials, at least Wu Jing, the former Gong Cao Shangshu, could not escape the blame!

Wu Jing, Sun Ce's uncle, had been operating in Luoyang for many years, and Sun Ce was about to be sent back.

What if two state pastors were killed in a short period of time?
Your Majesty, what are you doing?
Xun Yu had a serious look on his face and felt a little uneasy.

Since returning from his inspection tour, His Majesty seems to have become a different person.

After several months of observation, Xun Yu and others once thought that His Majesty seemed to be more 'calm', but now it seems that they were a little premature.

Xu Yan saw clearly from the side that the prime minister, who had always been calm and composed, had changed his mood twice in a short period of time.

When Liu Bian arrived at the Jiade Hall, the guards of the Imperial City Palace were already standing neatly inside and outside the hall.

Pull the little kid and sit on the seat, letting the little kid sit on the right side.

"Is there anything you want to ask?" Liu Bian leaned over and looked at Liu Shao who was slowly arranging his clothes after sitting down and asked in a low voice.

The little guy raised his head and blinked. His little face was extremely calm. After waiting for a while, he seemed to understand Liu Bian's question and said, "I'm hungry."

Liu Bian looked at him for a moment, then smiled and said, "Can you bear it for a while? General Cao is about to arrive."

"Yes." Liu Shao said. From the beginning to the end, there was no change in expression on the little face, which was fair and blank.

Liu Bian smiled, sat down, and looked towards the main entrance of the hall.

He can probably understand the complicated and contradictory emotions of being a father who hopes his child will succeed but also knows his child's strengths and weaknesses.

Huangfu Jianchang came to Liu Bian from the side door. After saluting, he whispered in Liu Bian's ear for a long time.

"Jia Xu?"

Liu Bian's eyes narrowed slightly, with a strange look on his face.

This Jia Xu actually abandoned Cao Cao and turned to Zhu Jianping, hoping to join the "Yingchuan Party".

"It's interesting." Liu Bian touched his chin, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Isn't it interesting?"

Huangfu Jianchang looked solemn and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I suspect that there is fraud involved."

Liu Bian raised his eyebrows, looked at him, and then said thoughtfully, "Then take a look. Xu Yan, in this way, add Jia Xu as the chief secretary of the Grand Sima Mansion, Sima Yi as his assistant, and there will be no left and right Sima for the time being. "

"The villain takes the order." Xu Yan responded and quickly retreated.

Liu Bian thought for a moment and whispered to Huangfu Jianchang: "Where is Zhou Yu?"

Huangfu Jian said: "We have returned to Donglai County."

Liu Bian nodded lightly and said, "That's almost it."

Huangfu Jian was slightly startled, is it almost done? What's almost done?
Before he had time to think about it, a heavy, clear drum beat sounded outside the hall - Cao Cao and other heroes who conquered Wuhuan had arrived.

He calmly retreated and stood next to Liu Bian.

The first ones who came in were the chief officials of the Six Cao and Nine Temples. They were all neatly dressed, with solemn attitudes, and they saluted in unison: "I will see your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

The voice was loud and calm as thunder.

"No courtesy." Liu Bian, who was wearing regular clothes, said loudly with a smile on his face.

The courtiers raised their hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then, they sat down in their seats one by one, sitting upright and glancing out of the corner of their eyes.

Cao Cao and others were already outside the palace, just waiting to be summoned to enter.

Pan Yin hurried over from the side door, first saluted Liu Bian, and then stood on Danbi and shouted sharply toward the outside of the palace: "Announce the expedition against Wuhuan Fenwu General Cao Cao and others come to the palace to see you!"

The sound was like an echo, echoing one after another outside the palace.

Soon, Cao Cao, dressed in military uniform, led the way, followed by Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin, Cao Ang, Cao Hong, Lu Bu, Sun Ce and a large group of people, who stepped over the threshold with high-pitched footsteps and the sound of armor, as they walked into the hall step by step.

Cao Cao's face was sullen and bearded. There was no expression other than his wide-open eyes.

Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin and others tried their best to control their emotions, but their faces could not suppress the excitement, fear and uneasiness.

It seemed like this was their first time in such a scene.

This is the Jiade Hall. Your Majesty is here today, flanked by hundreds of civil and military officials. Most people will never have the opportunity to see such a scene in their lifetimes!

Cao Cao knelt on one knee, holding the military talisman in both hands, and said solemnly: "General Fenwu, Cao Cao, was ordered to fight against the thieves. Now he has returned to the capital in victory. I have come to report to your majesty! See you, your majesty. Long live your majesty!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

After Cao Cao's voice fell, more than ten people including Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan and others bowed down together. The sound was as loud as thunder, overshadowing the previous officials of the court.

Liu Bian smiled broadly, waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please excuse me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cao Cao and others stood up.

Pan Yin trotted down, took the military talisman from Cao Cao, turned back and handed it to Liu Bian.

Liu Bian pointed at Liu Shao, and Pan Yin understood and placed the ward in front of Liu Shao.

The little guy looked at the dark things, blinked in confusion, and turned to look at Liu Bian.

After Liu Bian nodded, he reached out to take it and held it in his hands very seriously and solemnly. Then he seemed to feel uneasy and put it in his arms again, placing his hands on his lower abdomen to protect it intentionally.

Liu Bian took in all this, and suddenly something happened in his heart, and then he smiled even more.

This little guy is not the so-called 'stupid' as outsiders see him.

He's not stupid at all.

When the courtiers saw the military talisman falling into Liu Shao's arms, they all felt strange.

This is the future prince and the future emperor of the Han Dynasty!
