Sweep the World

How much belly the ruler has depends on the abilities of the ruler itself.

　　The more capable a ruler is, the heavier the belly is usually. That's because the ruler knows that he can hold it down and is willing to show the tolerance of a ruler.

Only rulers with little ability will always have the fear of "xx want to harm me". That is that they don't have the ability to suppress anyone. Naturally, even the slightest threat is not allowed. When the threat is found, it is ridiculous and dirty. Any use of wasteful methods will kill people, and the family will definitely be punishable.

Another point is that the ruler must be young at the same time as he is capable. Many capable kings appear to be very confident when they are young and mature, but they will "suddenly" change their temperament when they are old. No opportunity to cut off the threat. That is the older ruler worrying a little bit, he is already old, worried that the next generation of heirs can not suppress a bunch of veterans, can they not pave the way for the next generation of heirs to take over power while he is still alive?

Liu Yan is now in his prime of life. The gang of ministers who followed him to fight against Han Xin are relatively older. There is really no need for Liu Bang to worry about Han Xin, and there is no need to worry about one day when he kicks his legs and ascends to heaven, leaving one behind. Whoever has both the ability and the actual threat will break everything again to change the dynasty.

　　In his prime, Liu Yan was not afraid of any threats, but he did not allow ministers and workers to be too presumptuous. It has nothing to do with the self-esteem and face of being a king, but the existence of a person is a bad influence.

　　 To put it bluntly, the official must be majestic, otherwise how to keep the society stable? There is a person who is always attacking the official majesty, just like an ant in a house. Isn't he digging corners all the time, he actually digs the house some day.

　　 Liu Yan walked slowly into the room, followed by Liu Shen, and the father and son walked directly to the theme with the screen.

　　 At that moment, Xu Zheng had already stood up and gave way, Ran Min's cheeks kept twitching and everyone maintained a salute posture.

　　 Liu Yan waved his hand after sitting down, looked at Ran Min very purposely, and said, "Sit down."

　　The rest of the people all sat down, but Ran Min still maintained the salute posture, hesitated for a moment, and said softly, "My lord, the minister is absolutely not dissatisfied."

　　 "As a hussar general, you should have what a hussar general should have." Liu Yan did not look at Ran Min, but scanned the layout of the room: "Go back and reserve a hundred kilograms of gold and send it to Shaofu."

　　 "Hundred catties?" Ran Min knew that Liu Yan was not really angry, and smiled on his face: "The king also knows that ministers don't collect money, are they less?"

　　 The heavy atmosphere in the room dissipated with two sentences, Liu Yan is still the Liu Yan they know, still has the confidence that a ruler should have, and still treats ministers and workers with generosity, and there is no trend to change.

Liu Yan treats the people who follow him to fight the situation with real generosity. There is always the same amount of rewards with corresponding credits, not only in high-level officials, but also in the military or local officials, as long as Credit must be rewarded.

　　 In ten years, a group of people who were nothing at all, as long as there is no battlefield, there will be no beautiful houses and at least houses and land under their names. Some people who are honored for meritorious service are all sitting in high halls, beautiful people around, and powerful. If not for endless ambition, in fact, life can be said to be very happy.

　　 "Suffice it to stop, Yong Zeng." Xu Zheng is not used to Ran Min's character that he won't die if he doesn't work.

　　 "The king is destined to be a famous emperor!" Ran Min was still a hippie smile: "A hundred catties are a hundred catties."

　　 The "gold" Liu Yan said is really gold, not brass.

　　 In fact, the vastness of the land of the summers is vast, but to say that it is vast and rich is really self-deception. The Land of the Summers has never been a territory rich in minerals, and even the great plains that can be used as grain-producing areas are pitifully rare.

　　 The reserves of precious metals in the Land of Summer are really not very good, and gold, silver, copper, and iron are really pitiful compared to other continents. In history, the Central Plains dynasty acquired gold, silver, and copper from the surrounding areas, and it was obtained from the trade deficit of commodities. In terms of resources, in fact, the amount of coal is not bad. It is only when coal is developed by modern industry that it can be used for large purposes.

　　 Gold was regarded as a precious metal only in the first Han Dynasty. Not enough is not the currency in circulation in the market. It is generally made by the royal family to reward the courtiers with beautiful golden cakes. For example, after Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty captured Dawan, he gave a one-time gift of 20,000 gold cakes with special commemorative significance. Because of their special significance, those golden cakes can also be used as a redemption item for "undeath sin", which also drove the hobby of nobles and rich men to collect gold.

　　According to archaeological findings, after the death of the nobles and wealthy members of the Han Dynasty, the buried gold was the most in all dynasties. There is also the saying that all gold from the Xia Dynasty was buried by the Han Dynasty and was scarce. It must be said that this kind of argument is basically the nonsense of some brick houses called beasts who did not keep the door open. It is that the land of the summers does not have a rich gold deposit.

Nowadays, in Han, gold is still not a currency in circulation. The main reason is that the amount of gold owned is really not enough to support it to become a currency in the market. Some rewards will also be given when they are awarded.

　　What is the main purpose of gold at present? In addition to being made into jewelry, it is used for various decoration and modification purposes.

There are many people with sufficient status and wealth. They need gold powder to decorate their houses. Because of the color relationship of gold itself, some people who have enough gold also come up with "golden plates" carved with beautiful patterns on the walls and floors. And on the pillar, if there is enough light, it is really golden.

Because of Liu Yan’s arrival, no one knew what he was here for. Some people should remove the old banquet and replace it with a new one. Naturally, people from the wine shop went to do it, but everyone was not affected by the arrival of the king. Become silent. Because it's not a formal banquet, except that it is naturally comfortable to come, the chatting is still noisy.

"The king." Ran Min didn't know when he had already got close to Liu Yan's seat, holding a jug and patted: "I'm a vulgar person, and my mouth is unobstructed, but I am absolutely against the king. Loyalty."

　　 Liu Yan smiled and raised the wine cup. He found the nation in a rage against himself and couldn't stand the chance to commit the whole nation to Ran Min. He really didn't have any ill feelings. He even felt that he could understand his ambition to become a king. There was no sense of urgency not to kill the endless troubles.

　　 Life is alive, there is no ideal and salted fish, what is the difference? It's just that ambition cannot aim at harming others if oneself is cool, let alone go beyond the scope of one's abilities, otherwise it will harm not only others but also oneself.

　　 After drinking a whole pot of wine, Ran Minliang illuminated the empty pot. Just as he was about to speak, someone outside the door said something, and he did not hear clearly.

　　 "Taian, Zi Shen and Yan Zhi?" Liu Yan knew that Ji Chang, Sang Yu, and Lu Yi were all in this wine shop. When he came over, he came directly to the military gathering side: "Come in."

　　 A group of people was led by Ji Chang, Sang Yu and Lu Yi walked side by side, but followed by a dozen people, some of whom had no impression of Liu Yan.

　　 "See the King!"

　　 Everyone saluted Liu Yan first, as if suddenly discovered that Liu Shen was also present.

　　 "I have seen Prince Shen."

　　 Liu Shen stood up long ago and immediately responded to everyone.

　　 Liu Yan has been taking Liu Shen to appear on various occasions recently, to give everyone more affirmation that Liu Shen is the prince he chose, and everyone naturally pays more attention to Liu Shen.

　　There are people coming again, definitely to increase the position, there are people from the wine shop who bring the table and the table, the corresponding food and tableware, and the people who are waiting around must also have it.

　　 The current eating habits are very complicated. Many foods are not only cooked and stewed on the spot, but even cut on the spot. It must be helped by people with specialized craftsmanship. Besides, drinking or drinking tea is basically the practice of warming on the spot. The more formal the eating and drinking scene, the more people will be waiting next to you. It is not for the purpose of showing off, but it is necessary to be like that.

　　 Fortunately, this private room is big enough, and there are more than ten seats, although it looks a little crowded, but at least it can be placed.

　　 "The king." Sang Yu said immediately after sitting down: "The two behind the minister are from the gate of the mountain, both learned and talented."

　　The seat arrangement is a circle. People who think that they are enough are in the front row, while others are in the back, which means that everyone has a seat behind them.

　　Looking at the circular seats, it looks very distinct.

For example, Xu is in the same row with Ran Min, but behind them are Li Tan, Huan Wen, and Lu Tai, the three generals of the "Zheng" level. Xie An, Zhengxi Zhonglang, will be in the corner of the second echelon. The third echelon is some of the Lang generals they brought, and among the Lang generals, Li Kuang is at the core.

　　 Zhang Gan and Li Mao are sitting behind Sang Yu, who was just introduced by Sang Yu.

"Kings."

　　 Li Mao and Zhang Gan got up when Sang Yu introduced them, gave a salute, and then sat down again.

　　 Liu Yan didn't pay attention to Zhang Gan and Li Mao for the first time. He glanced over Ji Chang and Lu Yi, and then looked at the people behind them.

　　 Ji Chang didn't introduce anyone to Liu Yan. He did not engage in his own faction, and this time the "Wind of Xia Xue" was only planning to act as the host. It shouldn't be about fighting, but to ensure that the rest of the people are not out of balance when fighting.

　　 Lu Yi introduced some people, basically from the south, focusing on Luo Han, the number one talent in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Everyone was under Liu Yan’s signal to integrate cultural people. Liu Yan would not be afraid of this. On the contrary, they should appreciate Sang Yu and Lu Yi for doing things well. They collected or collected a group of people who can support the scene in a short time. People come out.

　　 "Where is the mountain gate, and what doctrine is the main pulse?"

　　 Zhang Gan and Li Mao looked at each other for an instant, and Zhang Gan stood up.

　　 "Sit down, sit down..." Liu Yan said with a smile: "At the banquet, there is no need for much etiquette."

Zhang Gan hesitated and sat down again after the salute, but he straightened his waist and slowly said: "The people of the countryside avoided the mountains of Leping County. Recently, it has been known that the emperor has expelled Hulu to restore Zhuxia. My door The study is mainly based on the studies of Mencius."

　　 Liu Yan still studied Confucianism specifically, otherwise he would not understand what Zhang Gan meant.

After Confucius, Confucianism formed eight schools during the Warring States Period. They are the Confucianism of Zhang Zhiru, Zisi's Confucianism, Yan's Confucianism, Meng's Confucianism, Qidiao's Confucianism, Zhongliang's Confucianism, and Sun's Confucianism. Confucianism of the Lezheng clan.

The eight factions in the Warring States period faded a bit later, but after the Xian Han there were many factions, but they were distinguished by studying a certain book. Some were good at annotating scriptures, some specialized in entering the world and ruling the world, and some Everything can be touched, and there is more to study ancient Chinese and just want to create new meanings, which can be said to be very messy to be honest.

　　 Li Mao slowly raised his waist, saluted, and said: "The emperor is here, my school is studying, and Jiazi is the main one."

　　 What is Jiazi? Calling "Zi" was a custom in ancient times to ask homes and great men in universities. The Jia Zi in Li Mao's mouth was actually Jia Yi in the Western Han Dynasty.

　　 Jia Yi was deeply influenced by Zhuangzi and Liezi. The main literary achievements of prose are political essays, commenting on current affairs, with a simple and austere style, and a lively discussion. Lu Xun called it "Hongwen of the Western Han Dynasty". His representative works include "Guo Qin Lun", "Lun Ji Chu Shu Shu", "Chen Zheng Shi Shu", etc. . All his Ci Fu is in the style of Sao, and the form tends to be loose. It is the forerunner of the development of Han Fu. The most famous are "Diao Qu Yuan Fu" and "Bird Fu".

To be honest, of course Liu Yan knows Mencius, but he is really unfamiliar with Jia Yi~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and I asked a few more questions. It is considered that he has heard that Jia Yi has the book "On the Passage of Qin". impression.

"On Qin Dynasty" was not only a masterpiece of Hongwen in the early Han Dynasty, but there were also few works that could surpass it in any subsequent dynasty. Later generations hesitated to focus on the discrediting and elimination of Confucianism for a thousand years. It is difficult to find a reliable record of the Qin Empire. It is to take the "Guo Qin Lun" as a clue. Just to make a point, Jia Yi's "Guo Qin Lun" is very famous, but it is only a statement from the family. He himself has this kind of argument, and does not emphasize that what he is saying is the truth.

　　 Liu Yan knew who Jia Yi was, but didn't know what his proposition was.

　　 Li Mao, of course, took the opportunity to give a good introduction. In general, Jia Yi's proposition is to "build lords with less power", strengthen centralization and emphasize agriculture and suppress business.

　　 Strengthening the centralization of power, no ruler would dislike it. Liu Yan also paid attention to it and really remembered Li Mao.

　　 [Sang Yu's hole cards are Zhang Gan and Li Mao? Liu Yan has always believed that Sang Yu must have something in this scene, and it is very likely that he wants to suppress the southern cultural people one step closer.

　　 Sangyu not only introduced Zhang Gan and Li Mao, but other people were also in the list, but no one except Li Mao showed much interest in Liu Yan.

Later, Lu Yiyi introduced that, apart from Cairohan, the number one talent in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, they are basically some famous literati, but Liu Yan asked and asked again, they could not say anything to interest Liu Yan. if.

　　 Li Mao seems to have come out on top in this self-introduction? The caring people can see it naturally, but it makes some people anxious.
