The emperor's tone was gentle, but the meaning behind his words was aggressive and made people feel uncomfortable.
Liu Xie's tone became gentler. "Mr. Yang, when you reason with the warriors, you need to use words they can understand, don't you think so?"
Yang Biao remained silent.
The emperor said this very tactfully, but the meaning was very clear.
The reason for poor communication has a lot to do with their attitude towards Yang Feng, especially him.
Yang Feng wanted to join the Hongnong Yang family, and he always treated him with great respect, but he never gave Yang Feng a good look and refused to stay thousands of miles away.
"Your Majesty..." Yang Biao hesitated.
Liu Xie waved his hand. "The three princes are the leaders of the imperial court. Now that the Han Dynasty is in danger, I am young and ignorant, with little talent and little virtue, so I have to rely on the princes. Mr. Yang is highly virtuous and respected. He is the head of the three princes. He has assisted me for many years and has many assistants.
I'm so grateful."
Yang Biao was startled and quickly gave a deep salute. "Your Majesty's words are serious, and I dare not take them seriously. It is my duty to deprive you of your Majesty's salary and share your worries for your Majesty. It is a dereliction of duty for me to fail to assist Your Majesty in getting out of trouble and to be embarrassed by a common man."
I feel ashamed, and I sincerely request your Majesty to issue an edict to remove me from my rank, as a warning to others."
Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao, dumbfounded.
This old cunning guy is so cruel. I just opened my mouth and you are going to resign. Not only do you want to resign, but you also want to return your title?
If I really want to remove you from your post, who else will be willing to work for me in the future?
"When Duke Yang resigned, did he feel that the Han Dynasty's destiny was about to end and decided to live in seclusion in Nanshan, or..."
Liu Xie deliberately prolonged his voice and looked at Yang Biao with a half-smile.
Yang Biao was stunned, raised his head, and stared directly at Liu Xie.
Liu Xie smiled and looked at Yang Biao calmly.
You will make progress by retreating, but I will not go with the flow?
I'm good at criticizing people and criticizing them.
Especially when dealing with a gentleman like you who cherishes feathers.
After a moment, Yang Biao reacted, lifted up the hem of his clothes, and knelt down on the ground. "Your Majesty, I have been blessed by the country, I have been promoted to the Jin Dynasty, and I have been promoted to the rank of Taiwei. I swear to advance and retreat with the imperial court."
Liu Xie stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Yang Biao up. "Young Master Yang is a loyal man, and I can trust him. However, I have one thing that I want to discuss with you. I may have to wrong you a little bit."
"Please give me your Majesty's instructions." Yang Biao said loudly.
Liu Xie nodded slightly. Yang Biao was indeed an old minister and understood the importance. Even if he asked Yang Biao to take the initiative to show his kindness to Yang Feng, for the sake of the overall situation, Yang Biao would not refuse.
But he couldn't do this. He had more important things that Yang Biao needed to do.
"I believe in Yang Gong's vision. Duan Xuan will not rebel, but Zhang Ji is hard to predict. He may join forces with Li Jue and Guo Si at any time. If Zhang Ji is blocked in Shaanxian County, what will happen if Li Jue and Guo Si come from the west?"
Yang Biao frowned, feeling both surprised and helpless.
The emperor's worries are by no means unfounded. This is also the situation he is most worried about, but he can't find a solution.
"I would like to ask Mr. Yang to go and declare the court's intentions to Duan Xuan, and ask him to exercise restraint against the provocations of Yang Feng and others, so as not to intensify the conflict, causing pain to relatives and anger to enemies. In case Zhang Ji disobeys me, there are
With Duan Xuan as our support, at least we won't be attacked from both sides."
Yang Biao deeply agreed. "What your Majesty said is true. I am willing to go."
"Also, if Jia Xu is also in Duan Xuan's camp, please invite him to see me."
"Jia Xu?" Yang Biao was stunned for a moment and looked at Liu Xie suspiciously. "Your Majesty, Jia Xu has come to Huayin?"
Liu Xie nodded, but didn't explain much.
According to historical records, Jia Xu should have left Li Jue now and temporarily lived in Duan Xu's camp. However, Duan Xu was suspicious and could not confide in Jia Xu. Jia Xu knew it well, so he has been looking for his next home. It was just his choice.
The room was limited, so Zhang Xiu had no choice but to choose Zhang Ji. Now he can only stay in Duan Xuan's army.
This is a truly top strategist, there is no reason why he should not be used for his own purposes.
If Wen had Jia Xu to make plans, Wu had Yang Feng, Duan Xuan charged into battle, and the reorganized Forbidden Army defeated Li Jue, Guo Si would no longer be an empty talk, but would have the slightest possibility of realization.
Yang Biao originally wanted to ask the emperor where he got the news, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
After chatting for a few words, Yang Biao stepped back and immediately prepared to see Duan Xuan.
Liu Xie continued to practice martial arts.
After a while, two Huben Lang and a Habayashi Lang came up. The leader was a young man in his twenties, with a slender figure and strong steps. They walked up to Liu Xie and bowed.
"Hu Ben Lang Shi, I have met Your Majesty."
The two people following him also stepped forward to salute and announced their names respectively: Hu Ben Wang Chang and Yu Lin Guo Wu.
Liu Xie frowned slightly. "Hu Ben, how many of you are the only ones in the Yulin who can fight?"
Shi A and others looked at each other. Wang Yue hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said: "To protect the emperor, it is natural to select carefully, and Deng Jun should be more cautious. Besides, Hu Ben, Yu Lin's number is not large, and too many were dispatched at one time.
The vacancy is difficult to fill and will hinder the dignity of the court."
Looking at the faces of Wang Yue and others, they understood a little bit.
It’s not Huben, Yu Lin does have a lot of waste and can’t choose anyone who can be used. It’s just that Deng Quan perfunctory him and resists softly.
"That's right. It's better to be absent than to be indiscriminate." Liu Xie laughed and signaled Wang Yue to arrange for them to perform martial arts. At the same time, he sent someone to ask King Wu to finish the attack.
When Deng Quanyang disobeyed, he started with Fu Wan.
Fu Wan was not only the father of Queen Fu Shou, but he was also a pure scholar. Not only was he not good at martial arts, he had no interest in being an official. He did not have as strong a sense of territory as Deng Quan and would not refuse his choice.
Wang Yue asked Shi A to fight with Wang Chang and Guo Wu respectively, while he explained to Liu Xie on the side.
I have to say that although Deng Quan meant to be perfunctory, these people were really good players. Not only were they good at swordsmanship, but they were also quite good at spears, halberds, and bows and crossbows. Especially Yulin Lang Guowu, who had superb riding skills and could shoot left and right.
, is better at charging with a spear, he is simply an all-rounder.
After passing the martial arts examination and asking about their background and resume, Liu Xie appointed them as ministers to serve around them.
He considered that in a few days, after getting familiar with them, he would find an opportunity to promote them to regular servants, or simply use the casual knight servants and casual knight servants established by Cao Pi in advance.
However, matters related to the official system are more complicated, so it is better to be cautious.
After carefully considering the current situation, Liu Xie decided to focus on swordsmanship and riding skills.
Archery and spear and halberd cannot be practiced in a day or two. Sword skills are relatively simple and are sufficient for self-defense. Riding skills have a certain foundation. At least riding a horse and galloping will not be a big problem. With more intensive training, sword fighting will be the same.
It can be done.
He did what he said, and accompanied by Wang Yue and others, Liu Xie officially began his military career as emperor.
While practicing martial arts, Liu Xie ordered people to move his tent to the plateau.
The high position has good visibility and is convenient for defense.
Furthermore, if you stay away from officials, no one will see you even if you do something deviant.
Although Deng Quan felt that the emperor was unnecessary, he did not stop him.
As Guang Luxun, he also hoped that the emperor would live higher up, which would not only show the emperor's dignity, but also facilitate him to arrange defense.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
During this period, Fu Wan came, but Liu Xie did not talk to him immediately and asked him to watch them practice martial arts.
It was early winter and the weather was getting colder, but Liu Xie was sweating all over and his arms were so sore that he couldn't lift them up.
But he felt a little more at ease.
The martial arts of the Han Dynasty were simple and practical, with not so many tricks. Each move was created to defeat the enemy and win. Every move you practice will yield a reward. Wang Yue taught seriously, and Liu Xie learned even more seriously. After understanding the skills, all that was left was practice.
I don't know if it's Liu Xie's original talent or the benefits brought by time travel, but his understanding is so good that he can understand the key points with just a little push from Wang Yue.
Standing on the plateau, facing the setting sun and overlooking Guanzhong, Liu Xie felt intensely pregnant.
Regardless of whether the Han Dynasty can be revived in the end, we should at least fight with all our strength.
With a long sword in hand, I ask the world who is the hero.
