I have lived forever since the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 269 Liu Bang’s worries

Suburbs of Changsha.

Liu Bang could no longer remember how many times he had received battle reports from the front line from envoys.

His mood changed from the worry about the war at the beginning to the joy of the steady progress of the war. Later, when he decided to negotiate peace, he could not sleep all night long, for fear that the interests of the big man would be harmed.

When Chen Luo sent a letter and asked if he wanted to accompany Zhao Tuo to perform such a scene, as an envoy of the Han Dynasty, he might lose his status by compromising openly.

Liu Bang didn't care.

In the game between the two countries, how much is the vain face worth? What's more, South Vietnam will become a vassal state of the Han in name in the future, so there is no harm in giving way to this younger brother this time.

Therefore, he agreed with Chen Luo to accompany Zhao Tuo in acting to help him deal with the South Vietnamese ministers who had different ideas and stabilize the court.

Slowly unfolding the silk book in his hand, he carefully read the contents described on it. The more he looked at the back, the higher the curvature of the corners of his mouth turned upward.

"There are generals in South Vietnam who are provoking... Jiang Ning used the battle of Jishui with me to intimidate those young men. Yes, it's really good... With the intimidation from the front, we will not lose face if we give in later. Now we It’s because I already have both face and face.”

"Your Majesty, how is the situation?" Li Cang asked first after looking at Wang Ling beside him.

He was fortunate that Chen Ping didn't come over to keep him company today. It was Wang Ling who was slower to respond, so he had the opportunity to talk to him in advance.

"The peace talks were successful." Liu Bang said with a smile on his face and a relaxed tone.

Even though he had expected it, Li Cang still had a look of shock in his eyes.

The formulation of the peace treaty between the Han Dynasty and the South Vietnam Kingdom was related to the Changsha Kingdom, so Li Cang also participated in the process of formulating the treaty. He knew that there were several contents in it that could be called "harsh".

How could everyone in South Vietnam agree so quickly?

Without being stunned for too long, Li Cang congratulated: "South Vietnam is far away, and His Majesty the Holy King is here in person. How can they not surrender?"

"Li Qing said it before, the real reason is for soldiers to sacrifice their lives." Glancing at the other party, Liu Bang couldn't tell that the other party was flattering him, but his skills were not enough, unlike the good words Jiang Ning said when admonishing him. How do you feel comfortable listening to it?

Li Cang was a little embarrassed, knowing that he had patted the horse's leg.

He coughed and said: "The officers and men are united. After all, you are still here to take charge."

"Yeah, yeah." Liu Bang nodded perfunctorily, then stood up and said loudly, "The weather has cleared up, and the front line has been victorious. Let's go back to the city and tell everyone about the good news."

"According to the order!" The guards behind him shouted excitedly. These ordinary soldiers were also excited about the news of victory.

Seeing this, Li Cang scratched his neck to hide his unnatural expression.

After silently following the group, he suddenly turned around and stared at the area again with a thought in his mind.

I once understood a certain amount of Feng Shui theory. The two hills are separated by each other, and the emperor has stopped here. If I am buried here in the future, I can probably protect my descendants for several generations.

Wu Rui's mausoleum has been under construction for a long time, and he will not compete with him for the tomb. So who in Changsha is worthy of competing with his country for the mausoleum?
Li Cang made up his mind and sighed helplessly as he looked at Liu Bang in front of him.

Why bother working in these weird places if you can climb this real big tree.

……

As the group of them returned to Changsha City, news of the formal peace talks between the Han Dynasty and South Vietnam spread quickly by the soldiers who guarded Liu Bang.

The entire city of Changsha suddenly fell into a carnival!

No ordinary people like war.

What's more, with the war in the late Qin Dynasty that lasted for several years as a precedent, they were afraid that the war between the Han Dynasty and South Vietnam would also last for several years.

In that case, most of the cultivated land in Changsha City would be abandoned, and the people would probably start to consider escaping to other places.

Fortunately, the war ended today with the news of peace talks.

At the same time, Liu Bang put on regular clothes and called Chen Ping to accompany him, saying that he wanted to leave the palace and transfer money outside.

Walking on the bluestone path, looking at the rejoicing people beside him, Liu Bang said with emotion: "Ping, how old are you now?"

"Your Majesty, this year is the sixth year of the Han Dynasty." Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips and responded.

Liu Bang suddenly asked this question. He couldn't guess what his thoughts were for a while, so he answered honestly and normally, and he would definitely not make a mistake.

However, he turned his head slightly, trying to analyze Liu Bang's thoughts from his expression and movements.

"Yes, it's been six years." Liu Bang looked around at the people on the roadside and raised his head, "I'm afraid the time I spent in Chang'an during the past six years was less than two years, that is, less than [-]% of the time."

Hearing this, Chen Ping suddenly felt enlightened and probably guessed what Liu Bang meant.

So he softly comforted and said: "Your Majesty personally worked hard and finally made the world's seas and rivers clear.

You see these people in Changsha are so happy, isn’t it precisely because we have an armistice with South Vietnam?

With such an achievement, without you personally coming, would anyone else dare to make the decision on their own?

According to Yi Chen, the empire of the Han Dynasty will last for tens of millions of years, and the initial foundation will be laid piece by piece by your majesty over the years. "

Liu Bang raised the corners of his mouth, nodded and said, "What you said makes some sense. I see that these people can live and work in peace and contentment, and I feel really relieved.

If the Qin Dynasty did not have heavy corvee labor and provoked the whole world to rebel, I am afraid that I would still be in Peixian County looking for Lao Xiao and the others to drink and throw pots all day long with nothing to do.

Let me have two hectares of fields in Luoyang, and I can wear the seals of the six countries.

From now on, I will allow everyone in the world to have two hectares of farmland. Do you think there will still be people in this world who rebel because they don’t have enough to eat? "

"Your Majesty is wise." Chen Ping was startled, then bowed and saluted, praising him sincerely.

Liu Bang's vision is truly astonishing. It will make everyone in the world have two hectares of land. So who would not think of following the careerists to rebel and do such stupid things.

If this thing could really be accomplished and everyone would have enough to eat, it would only be possible for the ancient Yao and Shun to rule the world.

"As you said, I am just the one who laid the foundation. To ensure that everyone in the Han Dynasty has enough to eat, I have to rely on my sons, grandsons, great-grandsons, and great-great-grandsons... to rely on their efforts to achieve my vision today."

Turning his head, Liu Bang looked at Chen Ping. "Do you think there will be such a day?"

"Of course, the Han Dynasty will be as you wish." Chen Ping nodded respectfully. No matter from any angle, it was impossible for him to say the slightest negative word at this time.

Liu Bang smiled and did not express the deepest worry in his heart at this time.

The thick information that Chen Luo gave to him before, he sent people to secretly check one by one, and found that all the contents that could find clues could be compared.

This shows that Chen Luo did not make a false accusation.

The culprit of the "Assassination of Chen Case" was not Wei Wangyu.

When he first read the submitted files, Liu Bang had doubts in his heart. Ji Yu and others could not protect themselves if they rebelled. Is there any need to target Chen Luo?
What's more, Chen Luo was returning to Chang'an from Chu. Could Wei Guo have found out so much information in advance, laid an ambush in the middle, and intercepted him?

However, the description of the entire file mainly records the number of thieves and the location of the ambush. It focuses on the rapid support of the county magistrate and county lieutenant from Shanfu County. The rest of the description is unclear. Therefore, Liu Bang can only choose to believe the conclusion above. The case was directed by Wei Wangyu. Thieves did it.

Therefore, the incident turned around, and the mastermind behind the "Assassination Case" became his younger brother Liu Jiao, but this did not surprise him at all.

As for where these new information came from, Liu Bang also had speculations in his mind.

After all, his brother was the King of Jing and also belonged to Chu. Under the influence of the Xiang family, it seemed that Xiang Yu used his own influence to investigate this matter and participated in it.

Liu Bang rubbed his brows. The original joy brought by the successful peace talks gradually disappeared, and a wave of annoyance came to his heart.

Chen Luo did not show any dissatisfaction when he conquered South Vietnam, and carried out the plan with all his heart. He even sent a letter mentioning the peace talks, fully considering his own feelings.

This will not make Liu Bang mistakenly think that he has given up on the matter.

To know the true hatred of life and death, no one will laugh it off.

You must make the decision yourself.

Liu Bang slowly exhaled a breath, and the idea of ​​​​pacifying Chen Luo flashed in his mind, and then he pressed him down faster.

In the past six years, he had only spent less than two years in Chang'an. If Chen Luo was moved, it was unknown whether he would be able to stay in Chang'an safely for two years in the rest of his life.

In the past, behind Chen Luo stood the King of Chu, Han Xin, and the princelings. After two wars with the Xiongnu and South Vietnam, he also had a certain status in the Han army. Even if he was not as good as Zhou Bo and Cao Shen, he was at most It's just the next best thing.

If you attack Chen Luo, except for those old brothers in your family, I am afraid that everyone in the world will rebel, and even Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace will not be able to live in peace.

Faced with such a situation, smart people should know how to choose.

"It's so noisy outside, it's giving me a headache." Liu Bang frowned slightly, "It's time to go back to the palace and rest."

"Wei." Looking at Liu Bang's suddenly unhappy expression, Chen Ping looked around, but didn't realize anything was wrong.

The environment here is obviously no different from before. Could it be that His Majesty felt bored because he didn't answer the call just now?

After thinking about it, Chen Ping whispered: "Your Majesty, today is a day worthy of celebration, and it coincides with your arrival here on a trip. Why not give this street a new name to show your holy love."

"Huh? That's okay." Liu Bang thought for a while and temporarily turned his attention away from those unpleasant problems. He looked at the happy scenes around him and felt a little more at peace. "I hope that the world will be peaceful and peaceful." From today on, this street will be called 'Taiping Street'."

"The sea in Jiuzhou is clear, and the world is at peace in the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty has chosen a really good name." Chen Ping turned his head and said, "I will rush to the Changsha Palace later and ask them to make a plaque to engrave the name given by Your Majesty."

"No." Liu Bang nodded absently, recalling the troublesome problem again.

Seeing Liu Bang's appearance, Chen Ping judged that the other person was distracted probably because of other things.

So he squinted his eyes slightly, thinking about something special happening today, but until he said goodbye to Liu Bang and went to the Changsha Palace, he still had no idea.

……

Ten days later, the Han army led by Chen Luo and Peng Yue went north along the Xiang River and returned to Changsha City.

Days of marching will naturally bring fatigue to people, but the mental state of the soldiers is very good, and they are even more energetic than when they were on the march.

After this battle, they can return home with their military merits and rewards, and even meet their comrades who have only fought against the Huns, and they can show off a few words, "We have also been to the south and fought those South Vietnamese." , guard the pass in the mountain, no one in the enemy's Wuyangyang area can attack."

With the joy of victory, nearly [-] soldiers received their rewards in Changsha City and began to be arranged where to go.

The identities and household registrations of the [-] Han troops brought by Chen Luo were calculated before the expedition to South Vietnam, and the process was very well arranged when distributing travel expenses and pensions.

Naturally, the Chang'an Forbidden Army brought by Liu Bang could not be demobilized, otherwise the emperor Liu Bang would have no choice but to go back barefoot without anyone to protect him.

So after receiving the most generous rewards, this group of people temporarily stationed outside Changsha City until the order to return was issued.

As for the armies sent by the princes and kings, they were led by their original generals and returned to their original places. Except for the armies of King Jing and King Chu, they were temporarily left behind. It was said that they could resist thieves when they passed through Jing and Chu. , used to protect the driver.

Peng Yue, the main general in this battle, got the title he longed for and was enfeoffed to Qidi.

Chen Luo was granted the title of Thousand Households again, and Liu Bang rewarded him with many rare treasures.

In this war against South Vietnam, two generals also made outstanding contributions and were newly named Chehou.

However, after the reception and the banquet where the reward was announced, Liu Bang and Chen Luo seemed to have reached some tacit understanding and did not meet again.

It was not until ten days later that Liu Bang announced his official departure from Changsha and returned to Chang'an.

However, he did not intend to leave directly, but wanted to return to his hometown Peixian County, where he had not returned for many years, to visit.

On the way to Pei County, where the mighty army escorted Liu Bang, he announced a new resolution.
