Chapter 450: For the King, Don't Be Afraid(1/2)
When he reached the door of Houde Hall, Liu An heard the sound of fou clapping from inside.
This fou is similar to an earthen pot, and is used to beat the beat, either fast or slow. In layman's terms, it is used to beat the beat when singing loudly.
Upon hearing this rhythm, Liu An immediately didn't want to go in.
For Liu An, a great talent who is proficient in music, his father's singing is simply an insult to music. If music had a life of its own, he would definitely commit suicide in shame and anger because of his father's singing. Liu An also
I have wanted to teach my father how to sing correctly many times. How difficult can it be to not go out of tune? However, no matter how many times Liu An corrected me, my father still sang the same way, but he always felt that he sang well.
, complacent.
Liu An was about to turn around and leave, but was stunned again.
Logically speaking, playing the fou is often very joyful. Many times, when the person who plays the fou is entranced, he can't help but jump up and hit while jumping, which brings the atmosphere of the whole place. But now what Liu An heard
The sound of the fou beating was actually a bit low, low, and the beat was very slow, exuding a strong smell of sadness. In short, it was not joyful.
Liu An stopped and closed his eyes, feeling the sadness in the music.
Faintly, he heard the sound of footsteps again, falling heavily to the beat. Just like the music, the footsteps were heavy and slow, not cheerful.
"well...."
Liu An let out a long sigh and couldn't help but raise his head.
Can my father express his sadness so silently only when there is no one around?
In Liu An's mind, the scene of his father beating the fou in his hand and dancing alone quickly emerged. Think about it, his father was actually quite miserable. Even his biological son could not understand him many times.
, I have always mistakenly thought that my father was an out-and-out fool, just because I didn’t understand my father’s ambitions.
Liu An had never paid much attention to the book written by his father. It was not until he met with the teacher that Sima Jizhu excitedly opened the book. Liu An learned the content of the book for the first time. He read
After reading it for a long time, this book is quite simple in Liu An's eyes. Liu An writes articles, the more allusions the better, every word is carefully selected, it is difficult for ordinary people to understand, and it is unfathomable.
, anyone who looks at it will be amazed that this is written by everyone.
In his father's books, there was almost no rare word in it. Liu An always mistakenly thought that this was because his father didn't know any rare words. However, after reading this book, Liu An changed his mind.
It turns out that my father has always been trying to use the simplest words to explain the most difficult truths.
Liu An discovered his own shortcomings for the first time. He cared too much about the beauty of the article, but ignored the audience of the article.
My father made a summary of Shang Fang's affairs and formulated a set of detailed methods for them to do things. This value is higher than the value of the articles Liu An wrote in the past. Isn't this the role of articles?
?I have always gone astray!
Liu An began to reflect on himself, and at the same time he also respected his father more and more.
During this period of time, he successively exchanged greetings or exchanged letters with Liu Hou, Lu Gong, and even some real people. These people all praised his father's new book, especially Liu Hou. Liu Hou believed that because
With this book, my father can reach the height of a sage, and he can open up a new direction for the whole world.
If it comes from other people's praise, Liu An will not pay attention to it, but his master Liu An has never heard him say such comments about anyone. The arrogance of Huaiyin Marquis is directly revealed on his face, and
Chen Ping, Liu Hou and the others kept their arrogance in their hearts, and it was really difficult for them to praise them.
As for Liu An himself, he has never received such praise from his master in these years. The master always said that he was rich in writing but not powerful enough.
To put it simply, he is great at knowledge but not very capable.
After returning to Chang'an, Liu An came into contact with many things that changed his view of his father.
It turns out that my father is not a fool, but I just can’t understand him.
Liu An couldn't help but feel a deep admiration for his father, and even felt guilty. He had to do something for his father!
Standing at the door of Houde Hall, Liu An listened to the sad music coming from inside, and the guilt in his heart became more intense. Liu An bowed in the direction of Houde Hall, and then quickly left here. He could no longer waste time.
Got it!
How can you let your father bear such an important responsibility alone?!
At this moment, in the Hall of Houde, Liu Chang sat in front of the eucalyptus, biting the meat in his hand, swallowed it in one gulp, and drank some wine.
"Hahaha, jump! Jump! Keep dancing!
!”
In front of him, two prisoners were sitting. One was beating the fou with a sad face, while the other was dancing to the beat.
The one who strikes the fou is also an old acquaintance, it is King Ji Miao of Ma Han. As for the one who dances, it is King Fuyu Hae Musu who was just sent over by King Yan.
Looking at King Ma Han's sad face, Liu Chang punched the gum in front of him and said, "Be cheerful!
"
King Ma Han quickly forced out a smile and hit the fou vigorously.
As for Wang Hae Mo Soo from Buyeo, he was dancing hard and didn't dare to rest for a moment.
Liu Chang shook his head, and with their accompaniment, he quickly ate all the meat in front of him.
"Ji Miao, why do you think you need it? It was Wei Man who destroyed your country, why are you trying to get in trouble with me? You still want to kill my governor? Come on, tell me what you think now. Do you regret it now?"
Ji Miao pursed her lips and said, "Your Majesty... I am also the king of a country. Why are you like this..."
"Huh?? You are innocent!"
"The countries in the Western Regions returned with courtesy, and I sent nine ministers to welcome them, arrange mansions for them, and marry the clan daughters to them as queens! When the King of Nanyue returned, I arranged a mansion in Chang'an to let him rest in peace and let him live with him in his old age.
The princes and kings of the Han Dynasty enjoyed the same treatment, but the king of Dian rebelled, but
His son brought a sacred cow to pay tribute. I treated him as my own child and gave him more than a hundred farm cows as a reward... But you bully the people internally and dare to be disrespectful to the big man. I don't think so.
I'll beat you to death because of your son's contribution to the city! How dare you say more?!"
Liu Chang cursed angrily, stood up, wiped the wine on his beard, and was about to walk to King Ma Han. King Ma Han was frightened and said hurriedly: "I am innocent! I am innocent! Ever since I was killed
The heavenly soldiers defeated me, and I deeply regret it. I really shouldn’t have offended the great Han Dynasty’s heavenly power..."
Only then did Liu Chang stop and nodded with satisfaction, "You have to write down what you said and publish it in the newspaper to apologize to the big man!"
Liu Chang looked at Jie Mu Shu again and said, "And you, the big man and you have never had any grudges. I didn't even know there was such a person like you. What do you mean by following King Ma Han to attack the big man?"
Hae Mo Soo lowered his head helplessly. He was different from King Ma Han. He was one of the founding kings. He united the tribes of Buyeo, built the royal city, and began to intentionally create the concept of the Buyeo nation. Nothing else.
Said that he was still a very capable king. He did not surrender, but was defeated and captured by King Yan... After being sent to Chang'an, he was still unwilling to surrender until he was interrogated by Liu Chang alone.
After several friendly exchanges with Liu Chang, he was convinced.
He had never seen such a tall and strong man. He had always been proud of his own strength, but in front of Liu Chang, he couldn't even hold back a single move. This made him suddenly feel that destiny was there, and this was what God wanted me to do.
perishable.
He smiled bitterly at this moment, "Your Majesty, I was deceived by a villain..."
"King Ma Han said that as long as I can make a gesture of attacking the Han Dynasty and prevent the Han Dynasty from attacking Ma Han with all his strength, he will give me twenty cities... Who knows, before my army is deployed, King Yan will
Come here to fight... or the main force is coming to attack the minister... The person who wants to kill the governor is obviously King Ma Han, how could I have thought that the main force of the Han Dynasty would come to attack me..."
Liu Chang couldn't help laughing at this moment.
"The King of Yan is warlike and loves his people. Ma Han only wants to kill his governor, but you have made a gesture of plundering the Yan Kingdom, and you can really threaten the people of the Yan Kingdom. His main force will not attack you.
Who??”
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, you have to write about your faults, just like him! No less than 5,000 words!"
After driving away the two prisoners of war, Lu Lu was a little confused.
"Your Majesty, we have already destroyed their country, why are you still humiliating them?"
"Hahaha, what do you know? This is a good thing that kills multiple birds with one stone!"
"Besides, it's their honor to play music for me. How can it be considered a humiliation?!"
"Well...Your Majesty is right."
While the two were talking, General Qin Tong came to see him.
When he learned that Qin Tong was coming, Liu Chang ordered Chao Cuo to be summoned as well.
The two of them knelt down in front of Liu Chang. Chao Cuo looked eager to try and his face was full of joy, while Qin Tong looked a little helpless, looking like he wanted to refuse but didn't dare to.
"General Qin, I previously issued an order for the frontier garrison to garrison the fields. The minister ordered Chao Cuo to say: For fear that the border garrison generals will be corrupt, he should appoint school captains to take charge... Chao Cuo wanted to set up eight garrison captains, one in Shuofang.
,Jiuyuan, North
Di, Longxi, Hexi, Xiyu, Daifang and other places are specifically responsible for matters related to farming. I originally wanted the internal history to be responsible for the farming captain, but it was not appropriate, so I planned to set up a farming general to be responsible for farming affairs in various places.
"
"You are from a farmer. You are familiar with farming and mulberry farming. You are also quite prestigious in the military. You have been responsible for guarding the border all year round. I think you are the most suitable person to serve as the farming general. What do you think?"
"Your Majesty... why don't you find a capable minister to take charge of this matter?"
"I am good at military affairs. If Your Majesty wants me to command the soldiers, I will not hesitate. It's just that this farm..."
"General Qin, this matter of farming is a top priority. In the future, when the army goes out for battle, won't it all depend on the food from the farming? How can you despise it?"
"I am not looking down upon..."
Qin Tong didn't know what to say. As a member of the founding group of the early Han Dynasty, although he was not a top figure like Fan Hui, he was still one of the top 100 people in the founding of the country. When he was asked to be responsible for farming, he always had a vague feeling in his heart.
