Control the ancestors and create an immortal family starting from the Qin Dynasty

Zhang Wei looked at Liu Xiu calmly: "What do you mean?"

After three years of wretched development.

Liu Xiu now had the shadow of a perfect ruler.

He is here, and he governs the people under his command very well.

No one dared to refute his opinion.

They obeyed his orders unconditionally.

Especially those generals, with whom he had life-and-death friendships.

To be honest, he just looked down on Liu Xiu.

Because this person really looks like a showman.

Especially good at acting.

He is also very good at talking.

Ordinary people would be completely powerless to resist if they fell into his hands.

What's more, they were just a group of warriors.

A few excellent words can confuse them.

In addition, Liu Xiu was truly sincere towards them and would think of them first when there were any good things.

This also led to the army that developed here having great respect for Liu Xiu.

They even treated Liu Xiu as a king.

If Liu Xiu rose up in rebellion, they would definitely follow him to the death.

But now is not the time.

Although the Xin Dynasty was in chaos.

But Wang Mang still had power.

The Xin Dynasty's army was also very strong.

During this period, Wang Mang was gathering troops to suppress the rebels.

Most of those who plotted rebellion had been dealt with by Wang Mang.

If they hadn't just been making small moves, Wang Mang might have sent troops to capture them.

In short, this matter cannot be rushed.

"teacher."

Liu Xiu looked at Zhang Wei.

He walked forward and poured a cup of tea for Zhang Wei, then took two steps back and bowed deeply to Zhang Wei.

"Teacher, I want to keep them."

"They are all homeless and poor people. If they are dismissed here, they don't know what to do."

"It is totally impossible to ask them to return to the countryside."

"Bingzhou has long been controlled by powerful people and officials. They have occupied the land and left no way for the common people to survive."

"If I disband the army, they will be without military support and will definitely be dealt with by the people of Bingzhou!"

"Teacher, I don't want to watch them die like this!"

Liu Xiu made his words very clear.

It's nothing more than not wanting to give up the military power in his hands.

After all, he was the one who gathered these people together.

The leading few people were even more obedient to him.

He would be a fool if he gave up on these people.

Been with Zhang Wei for so many years.

Hasn't he made no progress?

He learned a lot from Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei also intended to teach him how to govern a country and how to manage his subordinates.

Zhang Wei was also instilling the emperor's art of balance into him bit by bit.

He is not a fool, how could he not see through Zhang Wei's intentions?

Since the teacher wanted him to take this path, he naturally would not refuse Zhang Wei's kindness.

Now he has military power, and his teacher controls the Zhang family business.

If the two are combined together, once the time is ripe, he can rise up and seize the world, and no one will be his opponent.

For Zhang Wei.

Liu Xiu's mood was actually very complicated.

He knew how powerful Zhang Wei was.

It is precisely because he knows how powerful Zhang Wei is that he feels fearful.

Zhang Wei is like a god in his mind.

This person shouldn't exist in this world.

He was both wary and in awe of Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei had already taught him the art of being an emperor for his own good, and had even led him on the path to becoming an emperor.

He should respect such a teacher from the bottom of his heart.

But he also took the words of the person in his hand to heart.

Want to become an emperor.

There cannot be any constraints.

It cannot be checked and balanced by anyone.

If Zhang Wei is not removed, after he becomes emperor, he will be controlled by Zhang Wei and will not be able to rule the country himself.

He didn't want to be a puppet emperor.

He had thought about getting rid of Zhang Wei before.

But Zhang Wei was too vigilant, and the people from Zhang's company protected him very well.

Even if he wanted to take action against Zhang Wei, he couldn't find an opportunity.

If he poisoned Zhang Wei, he might die worse than Zhang Wei.

Although he wanted to kill, he never did it.

Hearing what Zhang Wei said, Liu Xiu actually felt a little nervous.

But he had to tell the truth.

He wants to go this way.

Take this thorny road.

Before Zhang Wei could open his mouth, Liu Xiu suddenly lifted up his robe and knelt directly in front of Zhang Wei.

"Teacher, I am fully aware of your good intentions?"

"You have been teaching me the art of being an emperor for many years. Isn't it because you want your disciple to follow this path?"

"My disciples are growing stronger and stronger. When the time is right, I will rise up and become the king!"

"Please help me, teacher!"

Liu Xiu buried his head.

This bow was made with all his heart.

If Zhang Wei could stand on his side, he would naturally be their ally, and he would not kill Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei looked at Liu Xiu.

He frowned slightly, then stood up from his seat and helped the man up from the ground.

"Since you know what kind of path you are going to take, you shouldn't kneel down to others at every turn."

“Now that you understand this path, do you know how difficult it is?”

"Even if the future is uncertain, are you willing to give it a try?"

Zhang Wei asked.

"I will never regret it even if I die nine times!" Liu Xiu said it in a strong and powerful voice.

Are you kidding me?
Since there is such an opportunity.

Of course he had to control himself.

It was clear that Zhang Wei intended to train him in this direction.

He naturally would not let Zhang Wei down.

As long as Zhang Wei is willing to support him, he can naturally embark on this path and do better than others.

He even felt that Zhang Wei had come to Caiyang County to find him in order to support him in this direction.

Since he knew Zhang Wei's intention, there was no need for him to hide it. Exposing his ambitions was also a kind of explanation to Zhang Wei.

"very good!"

Zhang Wei patted Liu Xiu's shoulder and took out an invitation from his robe.

"Although you have a certain amount of troops at your disposal, your ability is still too weak to conquer the world."

"You can keep this army, or even spread them out to different places."

"But you can't stay in Bingzhou any longer. This place will become the target of public criticism, and Wang Mang will not tolerate this place becoming someone else's place!"

"What you need to do now is to take this invitation, bring your confidant, go to Kyoto, and study at the Imperial Academy."

"Ok?"

When Liu Xiu heard what Zhang Wei said, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Teacher, what does this mean?
Zhang Wei's knowledge was enough to teach him to be a qualified emperor.

He could feel how profound Zhang Wei's knowledge was.

If he had always stayed with Zhang Wei, he would definitely have become a wise ruler.

But Zhang Wei could obviously teach him, so why did he push him to the Imperial College?

The Imperial College is no longer the same as it used to be.

Today's Imperial College is a place where the powerful and wealthy make friends.

Just enter the Imperial College.

The relationship must be very complicated.

It may not be easy to gain a foothold in it.

He was just a commoner's son.

Although he has the surname Liu, there is nothing eye-catching about him.

If I go to Kyoto now and enter the Imperial College, I am afraid that I will be bullied by others.

"teacher……"

"Don't you dare?"

Zhang Wei looked at Liu Xiu indifferently: "Although you can also grow up among the common people." "But what the common people learn is too sloppy after all. The Imperial Academy has a set of the most official learning standards. If you enter it, you can also make friends."

"With your eloquence, if you enter the Imperial College, you should be able to recruit some talents for your use, right?"

Liu Xiu heard this.

Suddenly everything became clear.

He finally understood Zhang Wei's good intentions.

His admission to the Imperial College was indeed of great advantage to him.

After entering university, he could indeed agree with what Zhang Wei said.

Make friends there.

They can even support their own factions.

Then you are the center of power.

The emperors and the powerful were all concentrated in that place.

If he went to the center of power, it would be easier for him to stir up trouble and see their intentions and tactics.

He really has no chance to learn these things here. It's always been all about fighting and killing here, and there is not much room for thinking.

If we continue in the borderland.

He might be worn down to the point where he has no edges at all.

After understanding Zhang Wei's intention, Liu Xiu bowed deeply to Zhang Wei: "Disciple understands!"

"Disciple will set off tomorrow!"

"Would you like to go with me, teacher?"

If he remembered correctly, the teacher was also from Kyoto.

The teacher has been traveling abroad for so many years, right? He should go back and pay a visit to his parents, right?

"You go ahead, and I will be here soon!"

He still has some things to do.

In addition to teaching Liu Xiu over the years, he was also gathering information.

Zhang's Trading Company brought him the latest news about the new dynasty.

After Wang Mang became emperor, he did many incredible things.

However, it must be said that some of Wang Mang's policies are of certain benefit to the current Xin Dynasty.

At least the other party maintained his position and even allowed the new dynasty to run smoothly.

But Wang Mang took a step too big.

If you want to do something that benefits the country and the people, you can take your time.

There's no need to be in such a hurry.

Maybe it's because of age.

Wang Mang could no longer wait.

When Wang Mang ascended the throne, he was already over fifty years old.

He didn't have much time to stabilize the government.

All he can do is to use his power to change this era. Even if it's only a little bit, he would be happy to do it.

These few years.

Zhang Wei saw many decrees issued by Wang Mang.

These policies are actually good. If used properly, they can indeed benefit the people and even bring peace to the country.

Pity.

He issued too many decrees, some of which were simply not feasible. After realizing that they were not feasible, he changed the orders every day and retracted them completely.

Such frequent changes in orders left the officials at the lower levels at a loss as to what to do.

This also led to the officials below no longer trusting Wang Mang, and they began to form cliques for personal gain.

Even the land was confined.

Not only that, some people are recruiting soldiers, which was discovered by Zhang's Trading Company.

Liu Xiu looked at Zhang Wei, and seeing that Zhang Wei still had things to deal with, he didn't disturb him.

After bowing to Zhang Wei, Liu Xiu turned and left Zhang Wei's room.

After leaving the room, Liu Xiu came to the military camp. Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Liu Xiu asked them to keep it.

"I have already consulted the teacher, and he has agreed that your food and salary will not change at all!"

"However, during this period, you must behave yourself. Without my order, you are not allowed to attack the surrounding counties."

"But don't expose our power."

"Find a remote place, set up camp, and train the soldiers there. If someone comes to surrender, you can take them in!"

"Here!"

The people below responded in unison.

As long as Liu Xiu did not disband them, he could let them do anything.

Liu Xiu treated them very well.

Plus, Liu Xiu had a very good teacher.

As long as Liu Xiu was around, they would never lack food or clothing.

You can live a very superior life.

Moreover, after three years of fighting, they already knew some of the situation.

The world is no longer at peace.

If this continues, the world will surely be in chaos.

They have to conserve their energy.

Accumulate strength.

If Liu Xiu rose up in rebellion, they would naturally follow him.

After Liu Xiu explained the matter to them.

Seeing that they had no objection.

Liu Xiu nodded with satisfaction, and then proposed to go to Kyoto Imperial College to study.

And choose some followers from among them.

The people below heard that Liu Xiu was going to leave Bingzhou.

There was a hint of shock in their eyes.

Then he looked at Liu Xiu with a dull face.

"Master, do you really want to do this?"

"Yes, if we go to Kyoto now and our identities are verified, wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?"

"Master, let's stay in Bingzhou. We already have a certain foundation here. Even if we face the governor of Bingzhou, we have the strength to fight. Why do we have to go to Kyoto and suffer this?"

"Please think twice, my lord!"

The people below bowed to Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu is their hope.

They didn't want Liu Xiu to put himself in danger.

If Liu Xiu went to Kyoto, who would lead this army?

These people only listen to Liu Xiu. Once Liu Xiu is gone, these people will probably have other thoughts.

"Wang Hong, Deng Feng, step out!"

"exist!"

Liu Xiu looked at the two people he had summoned and said, "You two have a certain amount of knowledge and strategy. During my absence, you will lead the army. You must not make any mistakes!"

The two people who were named heard Liu Xiu's words.

The whole person was stunned.

This is simply overwhelming wealth.

They didn't expect that Liu Xiu would let them command this army.

And Liu Xiu trusted them so much.

The current situation.

Others will only keep the military power firmly in their own hands.

I will never hand over power to others.

But Liu Xiu is different from others.

Liu Xiu actually shared power with them.

This is simply unprecedented.

"Lord!"

The two looked at Liu Xiu with gratitude.

"We will definitely live up to our mission!"

Liu Xiu looked at the two men. He had considered these two people from many aspects.

They are both brave and resourceful.

By cooperating with each other, they can naturally protect their foundation.

Moreover, both of them are people who value friendship and loyalty.

He felt relieved to hand over the power to them.

"The others will come with me to Kyoto."

Liu Xiu mentioned a few more names.

After settling things here, Liu Xiu did not stay here for long. After saying goodbye to Zhang Wei, he set off back to Kyoto.

Time is tight.

He had to rush back to Kyoto before the Imperial College began accepting students.

And you have to successfully enroll in school.

However, with the invitation Zhang Wei gave him, it shouldn't be a problem.

After Zhang Wei heard that Liu Xiu had left.

He didn't ask any more questions, but asked people to pack up their things and leave Bingzhou together.

After Zhang Wei left Bingzhou, Liu Xiu's people immediately informed Wang Hong and Deng Feng of the news.

"Generals, Zhang Wei has already left Bingzhou. Should we send someone to kill him?"

Someone said.

Even though Zhang Wei was Liu Xiu's teacher, they still found him an eyesore.
