A fast horse rushed into Chang'an City with a bitter cold.
It was like a stone thrown into a pond, splashing a few water splashes, and soon disappeared into the torrent of the discussion.
The Dahonglu Temple did not even take Zhou Yu's report seriously and threw it aside. A few days later, he mentioned it during the court meeting. The Dahonglu Minister Wang Jiang did not forget to mock him, saying that Zhou Yu was eager to make contributions.
, I feel that the Xianbei people are not enough to fight, so I want to go to Beihai to see if there are any new opponents.
However, Liu Xie was worried and asked the Dahonglu Temple to send the original copy of Zhou Yu's report.
These ministers were not clear about it, but he had some impression.
In the third century AD, the Han Empire on the east side of the Eurasian continent collapsed, and the Central Plains struggled in the tragedy of the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China, the Roman Empire on the west side of the continent also fell into war under the invasion of the northern barbarians and eventually fell apart.
One common feature here is that the weather gets colder and enters the so-called Little Ice Age. In order to survive, the barbarians kept moving south, kicking hard on the corrupt dynasty that was already drunk and dreaming of death, and replaced it.
But he didn't think it was inevitable.
The demise of the Central Plains dynasty is certainly related to the cold weather, but its own decay is the fundamental reason. For the East, it is the drunkenness and dream of the scholar-official class. For the West, it is the complete decay of the slave-owner class and the demise of the civic consciousness.
That's right, at this moment, Eastern civilization has abolished slavery in institutional terms, and the ancient Western civilization, which was praised by later generations as the origin of civilization, was still slavery.
The ancient Roman Empire was a slave empire, and the ancient Greece was even more so.
This is also the fundamental reason why Eastern civilization can be reborn from the phoenix and reborn from the ashes, while Western civilization has completely become memory.
The Five Husky, which turbulent China, merged into the Chinese bloodline, and inherited Greece, but the Roman civilization defeated their barbarians.
Now he turns the tide before he falls, supports the building to fall, and cannot follow the old path of history, and watches the barbarians in the north destroy the Central Plains civilization and push countless people into the land of death.
After resigning from the court, Liu Xie left Jia Xu, Yang Biao and others behind, focusing on discussing the matter.
Seeing that the emperor attached so much importance to it, Wang Jiang, the Minister of the Great Emperor, suddenly changed his face and sweated like a slurry.
Liu Xie didn't say anything, and asked Zhuge Liang to read Zhou Yu's report and expand the map.
The map was only recently completed, it is very sketchy, but it is just a bit interesting.
"You all know history and you should have heard of Guo Ji's story." Liu Xie sat on the imperial throne and twisted his fingers. "When Guo Ji was appointed as the governor of Bingzhou and inspected Meiji, there was still a large bamboo forest in Meiji. In the first year of Jian'an, the first year of Jian'an
, When I visited Meiji, there were no bamboo forests. In less than two hundred years, the bamboo forest moved south for more than a hundred miles."
Yang Biao held his beard and agreed with his head. "I also had some impression of what Your Majesty said, but I didn't think much about it at that time. I went to the agricultural school two days ago and heard people talk about similar things, which seemed not for a while, but
It's an ordinary trend. In this way, we can't take it lightly."
He turned to look at Zhou Zhong. "Jiamou, you know the truth from your own knowledge and can endure hardships, and you will be of great use in the future."
Zhou Zhong said with a smile: "It is worth it even if he suffers a little more."
Wang Jiang was even more embarrassed.
Jia Xu coughed lightly. "After that being said, it is not a matter of rushing in front of you, so you can make a long-term plan. The important thing in northern Xinjiang is to maintain stability. It is not advisable to rush to start a war, and it is not advisable to go deep into the desert. The court is tight in money and food and cannot support it.
Such consumption.”
Yang Biao expressed his agreement and immediately said: "Everything should be done according to your ability, and you should not force it. I think the court should focus on the Central Plains, especially Jingzhou and Yizhou."
Liu Xie asked, "Does Mr. Zhao have news?"
"Not yet." Yang Biao sighed. "Yizhou is too big and mountainous. It is much more difficult to get through the counties than Liangzhou."
Liu Xie's eyebrows moved. "Is Mr. Zhao in Chengdu?"
Yang Biao was stunned for a moment, then said, "I don't know. I haven't received any news from him for a long time."
Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao and did not ask again.
Zhao Wen has been to Chengdu for almost a year. At first, there was news, but later there was less news, and there was no news. Especially after Situ, who had given up on him, took over by Yang Biao.
No one knows whether it is emotional or whether the decline is not going well.
But this situation is obviously abnormal. Yang Biao should know something, but it is not convenient to say it publicly. Taking this opportunity to remind him to pay attention to Jingzhou and Yizhou, rather than focus on the northern border, is a clear proof.
"There is a priority to governing the country. I agree with the Taiwei's proposal, and it should be fundamental at the moment." Yang Biao brought back the topic. "The Xianbei captured in the first year of Jian'an, and the people of the Xiongnu were born in the Dangren this year. If this matter is handled well, it will not only be possible.
To stabilize the local people, it can also lay the foundation for guarding the border in the future. Like the young wolf lord, the fewer things, the better.”
Yang Biao sighed. "These are talents. If they cannot be used by me, they will become strong enemies of the Han Dynasty in the future."
Liu Xie said calmly: "Mr. Yang is right, and the Taiwei Mansion and the Situ Mansion are more concerned. But there is no need to be demanding. Everyone has their own ambitions, and it is enough to ensure fairness in general."
He brushed his clothes. "You can't have a banquet, so that all the Xianbei and the Huns will be satisfied. When it comes to that point, I'm afraid that the Han people will be dissatisfied. The relationship between the near and the near is the same as human nature, and the rule of the country is the same.
.Take it slow, don't hurry."
"I, I, and others, follow the order."
"Dan Shihuai thought he was powerful and did not take the court seriously, so he refused to marry Emperor Xiaohuan. Now that his daughter cannot survive, we should ask for help from the court, we don't have to be too attentive. The Great Honglu Temple arranged the arrangements.
Let’s send someone to contact them to see what they have. You can consider what is reasonable, and refuse what is unreasonable. If they don’t know how to advance or retreat, they will be handed over to the Protector of Yanran.”
"Which." Wang Jiang bowed and received the imperial edict.
After the meeting, everyone left, and Liu Xie left Yang Biao.
After changing tea and taking a seat again, Liu Xie went straight to the scene and asked about the situation in Yizhou.
Yang Biao left the seat and fell to the ground. "Your Majesty, I have committed the crime of deceiving the king. Please punish me."
Liu Xie glanced at him and did not move. "Then you have to first talk about what kind of crime of deceiving the king, so that I can decide how to punish you. As soon as you open your mouth, do you apologize for your crimes sincerely? Or do you want me to be exempted first.
Have you sinned?"
Yang Biao lay on the ground and froze a little.
The emperor's voice was not loud, but his tone was very strong, so he obviously was in a bad mood.
"How long will Mr. Yang kneel? Is it because I can't help but you won't get up?"
Yang Biao was startled and quickly stood up. "How dare I, how dare I?"
"Tell me, what happened in Yizhou that Zhao Gong was stranded and refused to return?" Liu Xie picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the tea.
Yang Biao was silent for a moment. "Your Majesty, Yizhou... is in war."
Liu Xie remained calm and said in a calm tone: "Who and who?"
