Liu Xie laughed and turned to Cao Ang again. "Zi Xiu, where are you?"
Cao Ang looked into the distance and was fascinated. "Your Majesty, I am a mediocre person and have no great ambitions. When I was in front of the teachings, I heard of my father's ambitions."
Liu Xie's eyes flashed slightly. "Speak and listen."
"My father was moved by the rebellion in Liangzhou and wanted to serve the court and pacify Liangzhou. I hope that in a hundred years, I could engrave the tomb of the Marquis of Cao, the general of the Great Han Dynasty in the Western Expedition, on the tombstone." Cao Ang withdrew his gaze and smiled at the corner of his mouth. "
It seems that this willingness cannot be realized. Liangzhou has been pacified, and the Qiang people have no need to conquer them."
Liu Xie's mood was a bit complicated.
On the one hand, he knew Cao Cao's life trajectory in history. If he did not change his itinerary and went to Luoyang and Xuxian, he would inevitably become the puppet in Cao Cao's hands. On the other hand, he believed in Cao Angsou
It is said that Cao Cao was really loyal to the court a few years ago and wanted to be a general in the Western Expedition.
Shandong prefectures and counties attacked Dong, and Cao Cao and Sun Jian were the only two who took the initiative to attack Dong Zhuo.
As for now, as the governor of Yanzhou, he only controls Chenliu, Runan, and Yingchuan whether Cao Cao was loyal to the court is actually no longer important. Even if he turned to Yuan Shao, he would have perished himself.
So Cao Cao was very smart and made a choice early and sent Cao Ang here.
"Although Liangzhou is flat, it does not hinder the expedition to the west." Liu Xie pointed his hand. "The Western Regions Protectorate can only be responsible for the two rivers west of the Pamir Mountains. But there is still a vast land west of the two rivers, which is no less than that.
In the territory of the Han Dynasty, if the governor of Yanzhou had ambitions, he could go west all the way."
The wedding dressing is a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stubborn and a stub

Cao Ang bowed and bowed. "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will write a letter to inform me of this good news."
Liu Xie nodded and looked at Xiahou Heng again. "Where are you?"
Xiahou Heng touched his head and glanced at Cao Ang. "Your Majesty, I can just follow Your Majesty. I am practicing martial arts hard and preparing to participate in the next selection and learn how to use military service with Mr. Jia."
Xiahou Chong continued, "So too."
Several other ministers followed and expressed their opinions that most of them wanted to follow Jia Xu to learn military tactics, some wanted to be generals, some wanted to be chief officials, and some wanted to do nothing, just wanted to travel around the world and see how big the world was.
A group of young people talked enthusiastically and completely forgot about the coldness of Wushaoling.
Tian Chou had already read Yuan Shao's report, but he was stunned when he saw these young people talking about it. The emperor was seventeen, Pei Jun, Cao Ang were in short order, Xiahou Heng, and Xiahou Chong were less than twenty, and the biggest ones for the others were only thirty.
The upper and lower parts are full of vitality, hope, and there is no difficulty at all.
It’s no wonder that if the emperor sets an example, how could they be afraid of suffering?
A gentleman has a moral character, and a villain has a virtue. The ancients are sincere and I will not bully me.
Only a saint can achieve prosperity.
Although he was happy, Tian Chou still advised: "Your Majesty, let alone the world is not safe, it is not advisable to go on an expedition. Even if the world is peaceful, it is not advisable to be immersed in military affairs. It is important to know that although the country is large, it will be destroyed if it is warlike."
Liu Xie nodded. "What Zitai said: Everything is appropriate, too much is not enough. Being strong outside must be strong inside. First, one must cultivate oneself and manage the family, and then he can govern the country and pacify the world." He put his hands on his hips, took a deep breath, and vomited heavily
Come out. "If my 60 million people of the Han Dynasty are all great and righteous people, have lofty ambitions and down-to-earth, even if I don't seek refuge, I will own the world for China."
Tian Chou nodded repeatedly and agreed.
Before he could speak, Liu Xie said again: "Ten years of trees, a hundred years of trees, time is endless. Today, sow seeds, cultivate and maintain them carefully. Maybe it will take a hundred years before we can get a dense forest."
Tian Chou suddenly became anxious.
Judging from what you mean, it’s okay if you are older than you?
"Your Majesty is deeply admired by me, but I have to say something in my heart."
"It's okay to speak out."
"It is rare for Your Majesty to have ambition, and you must not ignore the words of the old minister. Since ancient times, knowledge has been passed down in an orderly manner, and it is not suitable for the teacher to use his own heart..."
"Hahaha..." Liu Xie burst into laughter. The laughter was bright and echoed in the valley.
Tian Chou closed his mouth unhappily and looked at Liu Xie quietly.
Cao Ang, Pei Jun and others also looked at Tian Chou with different expressions, but they all disagreed.
Liu Xie smiled for a while, stopped laughing, and looked at Tian Chou with a smile. "Isn't Jia Shizhong an old minister? Isn't Ma Weiwei an old minister? Is Han Zhenxi an old minister? Zitai, you have come here for a while, say this
Let's say it, it's a pity."
He shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's talk about Yuan Shao first."
Tian Chou blushed. He heard the emperor's disappointment, but could not explain it, so he had to take his mind back to what he saw.
Yuan Shao submitted a statement to himself as the prefect of Bohai, verbally sanctioned, and to fight against Gongsun Zan to serve himself. The purpose is very simple, it is nothing more than to gain the recognition of the court and avoid direct conflicts. At the same time, he commanded the Han Hu of Youzhou in the name of the court.
Yi County is north of Yishui and south of Jumashui. It belongs to the Hejian Kingdom of Jizhou and is the northern gateway of Jizhou. After defeating Gongsun Zan, Yi County will naturally be included in Yuan Shao's control. Yuan Shao will also be promoted because of his achievements in defeating Gongsun Zan.
, and became the governor of Jizhou with justification.
For the court, this was obviously not an ideal result, and the possibility of acceptance was extremely small.
As a representative of Youzhou people, Tian Chou's purpose of this trip was to persuade the emperor to facilitate this matter, avenge Liu Yu as soon as possible, and elect Liu He as the governor of Youzhou to repay Liu Yu's kindness and stabilize Youzhou at the same time.
After Liu Yu's death, Youzhou was unprincipal. Each county was in charge of its own affairs, and the people's livelihood was difficult, so it was possible that it would be annexed by Yuan Shao.
Tian Chou adjusted his emotions and said earnestly: "I am presumptuous and dare to ask Your Majesty. Yuan Shao praised him, does Your Majesty believe me?"
Liu Xie's eyes rolled and said, "So what if you believe it, so what if you don't?"
"If Your Majesty believes, you can accept his request and make him attack Gongsun Zan. If you don't believe, you might as well refuse his request, and then lead the army eastward to seize Jizhou, so as not to invade Youzhou."
Liu Xie laughed silently. "Can Yuan Shao take Youzhou?"
"Your Majesty has something unknown. Youzhou has few household registrations, few cultivated land, and living with the barbarians, so he was unable to live in self-sufficient. In the past, when the world was peaceful, the court cut off Qingji's tuitions to supply Youzhou and appease the barbarians, and Youzhou could only be stable.
If there is a great chaos today, Qingzhou is deserted and Youzhou can only rely on Jizhou. Moreover, Yuan Shao has given kindness to the Hulu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan are willing to serve Yuan Shao. If you are enemies of Yuan Shao, Youzhou will not be able to protect yourself and can only rely on hope.
For Your Majesty.”
"Youzhou cannot be self-sufficient?" Liu Xie asked again.
"No..." Tian Chou said to his mouth, and suddenly woke up and quickly closed his mouth.
After a moment of thinking, he had a flash of inspiration and suddenly understood what Zhao Yun meant.
The emperor was in Bingzhou and Liangzhou. Although he relied on Hedong, Hedong had just resumed production and the supplies he could provide were very limited. There are two important reasons why the emperor could persist until now: one is that the emperor set an example and tried every possible means to reduce consumption; the other is that
The battle won consecutive victories, supplementing the trophy to make up for the insufficient production.
The two defeats of cattle and sheep seized by the Xianbei people was the main reason why the emperor could persist until now. In contrast, the supplies provided by Hedong were insignificant, and many of them were exchanged for the captured cattle and sheep.
Why can’t the people of Youzhou do what the emperor can do?
In fact, when he was regarded as a mortal enemy by the Youzhou people, Gongsun Zan could still persist until now, relying on the spoils he seized when he defeated the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou.
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were in Dai County, and Shanggu was living well.
In other words, the so-called Youzhou cannot be self-sufficient, not that Youzhou cannot do it, but that they cannot do it.
