Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 34 Xun You's Advice
Xinma wandered around Chang'an City, Liu Xie knew that he had plenty of time this time, so he didn't need to sneak around.Although, at the same time, he also knew that besides the obvious people and the six cool mastiffs, there were some interesting guys around him.

For example, the big man who buys jewelry from his daughter's house, is your big waist and round figure suitable for this job?In fact, that's fine, and the man who pulls seasonal fruits from the entire Chang'an city with a cart in the corner, isn't he too capable?Even the counters of fruit shops in later generations may not have as many varieties of fruits as your cart.Also, you even placed the grapes on the car in a grand manner. This kind of rare item imported from the Western Regions, not to mention ordinary people, even the noble children have rarely seen it?

Liu Xiezhen had some doubts that the level of spies in this era was at this level. In desperation, he had no choice but to smile and wave his hand, saying hello to the spy who bought the coir raincoat on a sunny day...

Xun You naturally also noticed these abnormalities, but seeing Liu Xie's leisurely reaction, he also saw the trickiness in it.Therefore, I told Liu Xie about this Chang'an city in a serious way: "Chang'an was once the birthplace of the Han Dynasty. It was built by Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Xiaohui, and Emperor Xiaowu several times. It is the largest city in the world. The height of the city is three feet five. feet, covering an area of ​​970 three hectares."

"There are three gates in the city wall, from north to south, the east wall is Xuanping Gate, Qingming Gate, Bacheng Gate, the west wall is Yongmen, Zhicheng Gate, Zhangcheng Gate, from east to west, the north wall is Luocheng Gate, Kitchen Gate The city gate, Hengmen, and the south wall are Fu'an Gate, Anmen, and Xi'an Gate. The southeast part of the city is Changle Palace, which is the place where Emperor Gaozu watched and listened to government. Emperor Xiaohui changed it to the Queen Mother's Palace. The Weiyang Palace in the southwest of the city is The court meeting place, there is a noble mansion near the Beique of Weiyang Palace, which is the so-called Beique Jiadi.

"Gui Palace is located in the north of Weiyang Palace, facing Jianzhang Palace across the city wall to the west. There is Bei Palace in the east of Gui Palace, and Mingguang Palace in the north of Changle Palace. There are 160 Luli in the city. At that time, the population reached 24. The area from the southwest to the southeast of the city was Shanglin Garden, and there were dozens of Ligong Palaces. In the southwest, there were royal palaces such as Kunming Pool. Insufficient problems. There are Mingtang, Piyong, and Lingtai buildings in the southern suburbs. It is a pity that most of these palaces are no longer visible today."

"Yes, in the past, the Green Forest Army broke Chang'an City and burned Weiyang Palace, and the new emperor Wang Mang died in Jiantai. Gengshi Emperor Liu Xuan indulged in sensuality and neglected government affairs, which made Wang Kuang, Zhang Ang and other treacherous officials act recklessly, and finally attracted the Red Eyebrow Army Snatch Guanzhong. The red-browed commander Fan Chong set fire to Chang'an City, dug up the emperor's tomb and carried the treasure westward, and then was beaten back by Kai Xiao who dominated the land of Yongliang."

Liu Xie sighed, and took a long time to complete the history of Chang'an City: "Since then, Chimei and Green Forest have repeatedly turned against each other and fought endlessly in Sanfu, causing the people's livelihood to wither and desolate in the land of Guanzhong, which is full of flowers and flowers, and destroy all the buildings and palaces. It became rotten wood and rubble until Lord Guangwu wiped them all out. However, because of the huge damage and the suffering of the people, Lord Guangwu was unable to restore Chang'an in Xijing, so he planted the root of the emperor in Luoyang, Henan."

Having said all this, Liu Xie raised his eyes to look at the huge Chang'an City, and saw that this city was completely enriched by five huge palaces: Weiyang Palace, Changle Palace, Mingguang Palace, Beigong Palace, and Gui Palace.There is also a Jianzhang Palace on the side of the city, the entire Jingzhao Land, and a city in the center of the world with more than 150 large and small palaces, such as Ganquan Palace, Hongya Palace, Wangyi Palace, Chengguang Palace, and Chuyuan Palace... …

It is a pity that this city, which represents the most glorious of this era, has now become dilapidated.After being glorious and powerful, the people it protects have never thought about the meaning of its existence, and wantonly express people's stupidity in the way of destruction.Even after 200 years, you can still vaguely see the shadow of the fire that burned the city of Chang'an by the Red Eyebrow Army.

As soon as the fire was extinguished, Luoyang City was also burned.

Perhaps, is it really the end of the Han dynasty?

Thinking of this, Liu Xie couldn't help feeling a little sad.He looked back at Xun You, and smiled apologetically: "Gongda, I'm so sorry, I thought it would be easier to talk after leaving the palace, but I didn't expect it to be better in the palace."

"Your Majesty is so knowledgeable at such a young age, it's a blessing for the common people in the world, and you must not underestimate yourself." Xun You immediately saluted and replied meaningfully.

Knowing that Xun You was trying to cheer him up, Liu Xie couldn't help but smile knowingly.He knew that at this time, although Xun You would not do his best to help him, he would occasionally help him analyze the current situation and give him some advice, but he would not refuse again.As a result, he steered his horse out of the Xuanping Gate and came to a vast grassland—this environment was no longer conducive to those careful spying, and it was convenient for the two of them to talk about dry things.

"Gongda, although you and I are monarchs and ministers, but now that the Han Dynasty is in decline, I no longer have the power of the emperor, and I can understand Li's thoughts of respecting the Han Dynasty. After all, the Han Dynasty has treated you so loyally and for the common people. A scholar who seeks blessings." Liu Xie's riding skills are not good at all, and when he said this sincerely, he almost fell off his horse because of clasping his fists and saluting.

Xun You turned sideways and wanted to help Liu Xie, but saw Liu Xie's body sprained and sat up again.And at this moment, Xun You happened to see the sincere apology in Liu Xie's eyes, and sighed deeply: "If Your Majesty was born a hundred years earlier, how could the Han Dynasty have fallen to this point?"

What Liu Xie and Xun You said are right, the Eastern Han Dynasty was actually a very strange dynasty.Since Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, due to the young age of the ascended emperor, his relatives and eunuchs took turns ruling.And those short-sighted guys who only seek personal interests have made a mess of the world, and the people are in dire straits.The grown-up emperors were worse off one by one, not only competing who was more incompetent, but also who was shorter-lived.When it came to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, he repaired the palace, cast bronze figures, built the Wanjin Hall, and raised taxes, turning the entire Han Empire into a black smoke.The far-reaching "Party's Curse" sent a large number of imperial elites to King Yama as ministers.

It was in such an era that the oppressed scholar group, with the heart of governing the world, desperately pursued them to fight for the rights and interests of the common people.Moreover, these mainstays that can truly govern the world are struggle measures within the scope of the law.At that time, they bluntly wrote to the emperor to denounce the crimes of eunuchs or foreign relatives, or formed a party to criticize the government, or sympathized with the rescue.

But because of the emperor's inaction, they finally realized after a hundred years that such a gentle approach could not fundamentally solve the problem.After repeated failures, they gradually became disillusioned with the Eastern Han court, their thinking underwent profound changes, and they began to realize the importance of armed forces.

Just after the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, in order to suppress the resistance, the Eastern Han government ordered the states and counties to recruit soldiers for self-defense, and cooperated with the central army sent by the imperial court to quell the rebellion.For example, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shu in the early stage can actually be counted in this ranks.

Of course, the scholars in Guanzhong are still far from knowing that after these people mastered the weapons, they felt like taking drugs, felt the beauty brought by power, and quickly abandoned their previous political ideas...

Thinking of this, Liu Xie's brain began to ache again.He quickly shook his head vigorously, threw away these unnecessary melancholy emotions, returned to today's main topic, looked at Xun You and said, "Gongda, the past is over, and it is useless to talk about it. I know the strategy of your talent, but I don't know, you Let me try to get out of the palace, what exactly is my intention? Could it be that I just want to let me get acquainted with this Chang'an city so that I can escape when there is chaos?"

Xun You avoided Liu Xie's eyes at first, but just when Liu Xie thought that Xun You was still unwilling to give him advice, Xun You pointed at Wang Yue and the tiger warriors behind him and said leisurely: "Your Majesty never knew what I think. , if Your Majesty does not leave the palace, how can you get these good and strong men? However, these good men can only protect your own safety. If you want to keep the Han Dynasty, you need to look wider. The Han Dynasty, It cannot be saved by relying on these nine warriors..."

Liu Xie was confused at first, but when Xun You mentioned the exact number of tiger and ben warriors behind him, he suddenly came to his senses and said pleasantly, "Gongda means that there are still ninety, nine hundred, Even [-] such good and strong people?"

"No." Xun You shook his head slightly, showing a very charming smile to Liu Xie: "However, some people, their energy and prestige are worth more than [-] tigers. And these people, also Only His Majesty can bring their dying heart back to life!"

Xun You's words were like a huge hand reaching to the sky to help him clear away the fog and clouds in Liu Xie's heart, and also helped Liu Xie smooth out the fragmented and chaotic thoughts in his heart.Xun You obviously asked himself to take the initiative to secretly contact Huangfusong and Lu Zhi, veteran ministers who have no military power but still have great prestige in the army, come to prepare for a rainy day!Especially Huangfusong, once the prestigious old chief of the Xiliang Army appeared behind him, even if Dong Zhuo wanted to rebel, the old man raised his arms, and a small half of the Xiliang Army would surrender!
Liu Xie, who figured this out, was so excited that he even wanted to slap himself: Damn, I learned the dialectical relationship between the primary contradiction and the secondary contradiction in junior high school. Did I just remember to hook up with the classmate and feed these to the dog? ?Xun You taught the lesson too well. Finding Wang Yue to escape with him can only solve the secondary conflict.Finding the old grandpas is the key to the problem...

"Gongda's words are like gold and jade, and I will remember them..." Liu Xie, who finally calmed down, determined the direction of his actions.But when he was grateful for Xun You's guidance, he suddenly saw a murderous look in Xun You's eyes!
Liu Xie was a little surprised, but when he turned around suddenly, after seeing the scene in the distance, his whole body suddenly became fierce!
