Chapter 1519 Self-denying and obeying others

The two walked to the west corridor, and the emperor looked up at the sunset that was about to set, his eyes shining.

"Zi Yang, I understand. Today's Sun Ce is the Yuan Shao of yesterday. Today's Yuan Shao of today is the Sun Ce of tomorrow."

"Your Majesty said very much. This is the meaning of a yang coming and returning, or the ultimate good thing. The opposite is the movement of Tao, the weak is the use of Tao, and this is the opportunity to change the strength and weakness of the victory or defeat. Your Majesty cannot write an edict and abandon the title and salary, and life and death will be taken away, so there is no need to underestimate yourself and bow down. When Xiang Yu boasted of himself as a king and divided the world, who would have thought that the Han family would be the world in just five years?"

He turned to look at Liu Ye. "Now that the strong minister is good at military service, the Han Dynasty is in danger, and the disaster of Xinmang is imminent. Will the descendants of the Liu family be able to do it?"

Liu Ye said: "Everything has its pros and cons, such as cinnabar, where some people will ascend to immortality, and some people will die suddenly. How can we generalize it? I dare not say that everyone is as loyal as King Chen, but I believe that it will not be everyone who is as ill-intentioned as Liu Yan. Only Your Majesty can distinguish between loyalty, treacherous, good and evil." He paused and said: "I think that people like Liu Yan should be imprisoned in the capital, rather than scattered in all directions."

The emperor turned his eyes and stared at Liu Ye for a moment, then suddenly laughed. "Zi Yang, be careful. Although it changes from time to time, you don't have to give someone a handle. Just do what you should do." He scratched his eyebrows and said, "Plans are good, but they are a bit troublesome to use, and you have to think carefully. If there is a turmoil in the world and the royal family is suspicious, it will be unbeautiful."

"I have a plan."

"explain."

"Since Zhongping, there have been no wars for every year, the people have been displaced and their household registration is wrong. Sun Ce pacified Yuan Shao and Shandong is in a rough state, which is also a rare joy. Your Majesty can take advantage of this to change the era to show his desire to govern, summon the royal family to the court, distinguish the loyalty, traitor and strength, and deal with it separately. In addition, the world's plan is ordered, Zong Zheng will also review the clan's family and elect talents from it, and recommend them to the court."

"Change the Yuan?" The emperor pondered for a moment. "That's right, it's been six years since Zhongping and Chuping, so it's really time to change the Yuan Dynasty. However, if you want to change the Yuan Dynasty, you must first appease the Sun family's father and son. Otherwise, alas..."

Seeing that the emperor's mood became depressed again, Liu Ye smiled. "Your Majesty, I have heard of the boxing technique mentioned by King Chen just now."

"Yeah?"

"I heard from others that Sun Ce named his boxing technique as Tai Chi, and his mind technique is not complicated. There are eight words in it, sacrificing oneself and following others, and leveraging the force to fight."

"Sacrifice yourself and follow others, and use your strength to fight?" The emperor pondered for a moment and nodded. "Sure enough, the great way is simple. However, it is easy to know and difficult to do, but it is difficult to sacrifice yourself and follow others."

"Therefore, the sages have four words: do not have the intention, do not have to, do not have to be strong, do not have me. If you sacrifice yourself and follow others, you are almost like me."

The emperor smiled, thought for a moment, sighed for a while, and said, "Do you have any letters to Lu Su?"

"I've been busy lately, and he's been fighting again. He's inconsistent whereabouts and has no way to contact him."

"Now he is guarding Luoyang, he can contact us." The emperor scratched his head. "The opportunity should not be missed, and he will never come again. Ziyang, I heard that Guo Jia is not only responsible for the military planning department, but also the scout camp, responsible for the detailed work of all directions. You are enemies with him, and you should not fight alone. Find candidates as soon as possible and form similar institutions. Well, just call the secretary desk. How about you order the secretary?"

"Your Majesty, Xun Lingjun has similar subordinates, and he does not seem to have to serve as a loyal position..."

"He is responsible for major politics and is a philosophical person. You are responsible for military affairs and a secret person, each performs his duties and communicates with each other. Don't worry, I will discuss with Lingjun."

Liu Ye frowned and remained silent for a moment, nodded and agreed. "Yi."

On the side of Kunming Pool, Yang Biao and Shi Sun Rui stood side by side with their sleeves. Not far away is the stone statue of the Cowherd, looking east. There are many people fishing by the pool, and some children are swimming in the water. In midsummer, playing in the water is the best way to cool off. They had a lot of fun, jumping down from the rockery next to them again and again, splashing countless water.

"In the past years, when there was a lot of rain, the water surface was higher than it is now, and it could overflow the rocks." Shi Sun Rui said. Yang Biao listened quietly without saying a word. He originally thought Xun Yu would come, but they stood here for a long time, but Xun Yu's figure still did not appear. Shi Sun Rui continued: "At that time, no one knew that the water was actually very shallow. There was only one result for jumping from above, and he fell to his head and blood, and some even fell to death directly."

Yang Biao was shocked, looked back at Shi Sun Rui, and looked over again. "Why is it okay now?"

"After receiving the report, Jingzhao Yin Mansion sent someone to take care of the place and ban games, but still couldn't stop it. Who could stop the children? They were born to be adventurous, so there were always people jumping secretly, and there were always people injured. Some people suggested digging the rockery under the water, but soon some people opposed it. The rockery was built during the reign of Emperor Xiaowu and has been passed down to this day. Shanglinyuan was originally a royal forbidden garden. The court sympathized with the people. Opening Shanglinyuan for the people to farm was the imperial grace. If the rockery was destroyed because of the ignorance of the people, it would be a step back."

Yang Biao nodded, and listened to the following.

"Later, Wen Ruo heard the news for some reason. He asked someone to test the water depth, then chose a suitable location, and built a fence on it. There was a gap in the fence. It would be fine if you jumped out of the gap, and it would be dangerous if you jumped over the fence." Shi Sun Rui looked at the figures that jumped down one after another. "So you see, Wen Ruo just chose a safer direction, which saved the children's fun, and did not have the foundation to move the rockery."

Yang Biao smiled and said, "So Junrong is also preparing to make a fence?"

"I'm not enough." Shi Sun Rui turned around and looked at Yang Biao with a faint smile on his face. "If the Hongnong Yang family, the third master of the fourth generation, stood by and watched, how much could we do with just a few of us?"

Yang Biao smiled and shook his head, and walked slowly forward. Shi Sun Rui followed, and the two walked side by side. Under his feet was a path made of bluestone. Chang'an was abandoned for too long and the court was in trouble. It may not be possible to come once for decades. Although there were officials here, most of them were lazy. Grass grew between the bluestones and raised the bluestone. The originally flat and solid road has now become bumpy. Some of the bluestones are broken, and some are simply missing.

"Jun Rong, it's not that I shirked it, but that I have the wife of Yuan and the son of a rioter on the outside, so I can't tell myself..."

"Brother Wenxian, so far, the Sun family and his son have no signs of being unjust. Even Yuan family, only Yuan Shao is the one who has the intention of being unjust, and the others have not been implicated."

"Who still believes that he is a loyal minister? Did the court admit that they occupy the five states, or did they give up the four states?"

"It is certainly better for them to take the initiative to give up the four states, but it really doesn't work. As long as they can maintain nominal loyalty, the court can also recognize the reality."

Yang Biao looked at Shi Sun Rui in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment. After a while, he asked, "Why?"

"I want to take it first. The court is temporarily unable to conquer the battle, so it can only retreat and advance, stabilize the Sun family and son, and slowly plan it." Shi Sun Rui paused and lowered his voice. "If the court wants to pacify Liangzhou, the emperor may command the emperor to personally fight to support the war. If the fire virtue is not extinguished, God bless the Han Dynasty. After a few years, Liangzhou will be pacified, and the emperor will also hone himself on the battlefield, and perhaps have the power to fight with Sun Ce."

Yang Biao was furious. "Who is so frivolous that he can pacify Liangzhou in several years? The Sanming in Liangzhou has been fighting for decades..."

"Then it's better to fight for a few more decades than to sit and wait for death, right?"

Yang Biao was speechless, and after a while, he slowly returned to his calm. "Then what can I do?"
