The fears are all mutual!
Zhiyao was worried that the Han family was too powerful and that one day it would rise up and cause great harm to the original country. If they did not weaken it or simply deal with it, it would be more likely to replace the Zhi family. She definitely wanted to weaken or eliminate it.
What Han is afraid of is that he is not strong enough to protect himself, and does not want to pin the safety of the entire clan on Zhiyao's possible kindness.
There is no right or wrong in this matter, there are just different positions, right?
The problem now is that regardless of whether Zhiyao has the intention to destroy the Han family or not, or whether the Han family will be detrimental to the original country, the two sides are at a standstill due to their own positions.
Can it be solved? If it can be solved easily, can it still be called a problem? Obviously, they can't trust each other, and it's just a matter of who can outplay the other.
In this matter, Zhiyao undoubtedly retained a lot of restraint. It may be a little bit out of friendship, but the proportion is not too large. The main reason is that she is afraid that dealing with the Han family will cause a chain reaction.
"That's why I admire Yang Jian. Before he replaced the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he was weaker than other Zhuge Kingdoms. By establishing Yang Sui, he was able to stabilize those families with heavy troops and make Yang Sui prosperous."
"If Yang Jian made any mistake, it is probably that he only weakened those families and did not have the courage to completely eradicate them, leaving the trouble to the second generation."
"The real courage has to be said to Liu Bang. Even though he knew there would be a big price, he still resolutely used his old age to cut off the princes with different surnames. Before he died, he also left a fatal fate for the growing Lu family."
"Of course, if we want to do the math, we also need to add the man who 'borrowed his life from heaven for five hundred years'. At a young age, he relied on a few young men with no roots to cut off powerful officials. In his twenties, he forced a counterattack by a man with a different surname and a heavy army.
King, and successfully put down the rebellion."
In Zhiyao's own opinion, he had given Han three chances.
The first time was when Zhiyao appointed Han Geng as the general to conquer the Qin State. Nearly 80,000 troops could fight with the Qin State and take great credit for the establishment of the Qin State's capital "Yong".

With this great achievement and the emphasis on functionality, there is still room for maneuver no matter what the mistake.
The second time was to order Han Geng to conquer the land of Shangyu. The Han family could use it to seize the territory of the Zhou royal family to defile themselves.
After committing suicide, even if the Han family's strength is not weakened, their reputation becomes bad, and converting their family into a country will not be accepted by the world, at least it can make Zhiyao feel more at ease.
The third time this year was the Western Expedition. Zhiyao recruited one "army" and three "divisions" of the Han family.
The fact that the Han family did not gain an important position in the Western Expeditionary Army is a signal in itself. Not to mention that the Han family's troops should fight harder, even if they just perform their responsibilities normally, it is nothing more than maintaining the status quo.
The result? The Han family showed a relatively obvious retreat, and the matter of disloyalty to the king was not mentioned. What was the purpose of self-protection? Do we need to preserve our strength to fight against the center?
There are only three things that can be done, and Zhiyao has reached the point where she can't bear it, but as a king of a country, the tolerance that exceeds the limit is sometimes more useful than imagined.
If Zhiyao wants to deal with the Han family, the next step is to let other families know that Zhiyao has tolerated the Han family several times, and is not trying to force the Han family to die, but just wants to witness the Han family's loyalty, but the Han family is
He repeatedly rejected Zhiyao's kindness, and related matters spread.
Doing this may jeopardize Zhiyao's prestige, but it can keep Zhiyao's side of the old relationship alive and reduce the panic caused by other families when taking action.
"The day the Qin Kingdom is destroyed will be the day the Han family is destroyed!" Zhiyao thinks it can be done.
The current civil strife in the Yuan Kingdom may seduce the princes to invade, but the Chu State is no longer able to do so. The Yue State and the Song State alone cannot pose a fatal threat to the Yuan State.
After thinking about it, Zhiyao still felt that it would become chaos if it was not sorted out. She could not leave the trouble to the second generation, otherwise she might end up like the Qin Empire or the Sui Empire.
In this case, the corresponding deployment should be operational!
Of course, Han Geng noticed the strange looks from everyone, and his heart suddenly moved, and he quickly moved his eyes to Zhi Yao.
Zhiyao has long been able to keep her emotions from showing on her face, keeping an indifferent smile and talking about things to do after going to "Qufu".
The Yuan Kingdom's military campaign against the Lu Kingdom had lasted for three years. At one point, they were able to completely annihilate the Lu Kingdom but chose to give up. The occupation of "Qufu" allowed all the ministers of the Lu Kingdom to return safely.
After that, the original army withdrew from "Qufu" and only occupied half of the country of Lu.
What is strange is that the ministers of the Lu State returned to "Qufu", but they did not arrange for the new king to ascend the throne, especially in cooperation with the original state to turn "Qufu" into a city for debate.
Therefore, the Lu State has not been destroyed at present, but they do not have a king, and they are in a status quo of three states co-governing.
There is a reason why Zhiyao chose "Qufu" as the last stop of his tour this time. The reason is that the three emperors united and sent an envoy to see Zhiyao to request conditional surrender.
How else to say that the people of Lu are interesting? Those who are loyal are particularly loyal, and those who are villains are particularly villains. Some people can play the two roles of loyalty and villain at the same time.
Chu State, Yue State, Song State and Zheng State jointly mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops, but they were unable to defeat Yuan State twice in a row. This has been seen by everyone in the world.
If several princes with hundreds of thousands of troops cannot defeat the Yuan Kingdom, and the Zheng State is eventually destroyed, and the Chu State also loses two-tenths of its territory, can the already weak Lu State be able to compete with the Yuan Kingdom?
?
People in some countries, knowing that they cannot defeat the invaders, will still resist desperately, and even fight to the last soldier, and achieve a final outcome in which benevolence is rewarded.
After some countries know that they cannot defeat them, they will think about whether it is worthwhile to resist. Then they will see the world situation clearly and think that temporary victory or defeat is nothing. They choose to surrender to preserve their vitality and wait for the day when the turning point comes.

Sometimes, right? When your allies have to shoulder the burden of fighting for you, are you sorry that your allies came first? But you realize that your allies are more hateful than your enemies, so you pour a bucket of cold water on your head, and you have an epiphany in an instant.
Zhiyao's patrol team came to the outskirts of "Qufu" and was greeted by people from Lu, represented by Sanhuan, who had left the city thirty miles away.
People who don't know better think that Yuan and Lu are very friendly, and Lu serves Yuan with great care.
Of course, some people from the original country were either here in "Qufu" early, or they came here separately from the patrol team to eliminate possible hidden dangers and control the scene to ensure that there would be no accidents.
Sanhuan was deeply afraid of causing any misunderstanding, so he chose to maintain maximum cooperation with all actions taken by Yuan Guo.
When Zhiyao saw Meng Sunshu, Shu Sunshu, and Ji Sunqiang coming to greet them in person, she glanced at Han Geng deliberately, then got out of the car and greeted Han Geng with a smile on her face.
These three people are the current heads of Sanhuan's family. They personally traveled thirty miles from the city to greet him with one purpose: let's lie down and pray that the original king will look better when he eats.
Facing Sanhuan who was completely lying flat, Zhiyao could completely wipe him out even if he opened his mouth. As the king of a country, how could he commit such atrocious acts in the face of external forces with such a degree of submission?
Therefore, Zhiyao showed an approachable side to the current head of the Sanhuan family, responded to greetings, and then took the initiative to talk about the customs and customs of the Lu country.
The king is like this, and the other important people in the original country immediately know what to do, which is nothing more than to restrain their unnecessary arrogance and domineering, don't look domineering, and try to show a kind side.
Sima Ranju didn't know whether to praise or ridicule, and said: "The state of Lu will definitely become a model."
Zhikai, who had been studying with Sima Ranju recently, was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Isn't that true?"
By the way, why would Zhiyao bring Zhikai with her when she goes on patrol? Is it appropriate to have someone who is not a supervisor in the country?
However, when the First Emperor went on tour, he did not arrange any candidates to supervise the country. He brought a whole central team with him to handle official business wherever he went. He only suffered a lot from the people who came and went to escort official documents.
To be honest, the current territory of the original country is not very large. The incomplete version of the county system has just been implemented, and there are not as many official services as imagined.
Another point is that the things that need to be carried out have been arranged long ago. For matters that may need to be dealt with immediately, if you stay in "Puyang" or come to "Qufu", the post system has been established and perfected by Zhiyao, so the time will be lost.
A gap of three to five days.
A time difference of three to five days? If the matter is serious enough, it will definitely appear fatal enough.
What is the problem? We are not in an era where instant communication is possible, and it is an era where efficiency is very slow. It is too difficult to buy time and so on.
Having enough backup before doing anything is extremely important in an era when timely communication is not possible. Zhiyao cannot ignore this.
To what extent were Sanhuan's bachelors? They allowed the original army to control the entire "Qufu" and restrained their subordinates to cooperate in driving away or arresting the Lu people who were causing trouble.
Zhiyao said to his ministers with a wry smile: "Sanhuan is like this, I am very helpless."
What should we do if the target of the annexation is too cooperative? Even if it is just to set an example and give an example to future enemies, it must be how to control it.
There are not only people from Lu or Yuan countries on this side of "Qufu", but also many people from other vassal states.
There are very few merchants in these vassal states. There is nothing wrong with this. Only some people who are bold enough and courageous enough will go to war-torn areas to do business.
Because "Qufu" was built into a city with a strong debate atmosphere, it attracted many people who liked to talk, and some down-and-out nobles thought it was an opportunity to show off their abilities and came one after another.
In the past nearly two years, Yuan Guo has recruited many people in "Qufu", usually people with lofty ideals who identify with "One World".
Due to the short period of time, there are no outstanding people, and no recruiters have yet come into Zhiyao's sight and have been reused. Most of them have been sent for retraining, or have been placed as officials in various counties.
Is it so easy to be an official in the original country? It depends on the era. More than 99% of the people are illiterate. It is very rare to catch a literate person. Only one who "appoints people according to their talents and makes the best use of their talents"
Just options.
Zhiyao did not live in the palace city, or even in the city.
There is no need to live in Miyagi. It will look very arrogant and make people see the impatient side.
As for not living in the city, Zhiyao was very cautious and did not give any chance to people with ulterior motives.
"Your Majesty, have all the three emperors of the Lu Kingdom surrendered?" Han Geng found an opportunity and asked nonsense.
If Sanhuan completely gave up resistance, Yuan's annexation of Lu would be extremely smooth.
This is the same as the reason why it is difficult to form a large-scale resistance after the princes of Zheng were wiped out.
In both Lu and Zheng, the public had absolute power and strength. Once the public was destroyed physically or mentally, the country would not have the strength to resist.
Zhiyao seemed not to understand the meaning of Han Geng's question, and said with a smile: "This matter has been decided for a long time."
This is not right!
Han Geng used to be a Situ, but now he is in power. Due to his status, he did not know that Sanhuan would surrender with his country.
Furthermore, considering the strength of the original country, the use of force to annex the Lu State would not cause much loss, and the old forces of the Lu State could be completely eradicated. Why should the three influential people in the Lu State be left behind?
Where is Huan?
Han Geng's eyelids kept twitching as he thought of something. He wanted to clear his thoughts completely, but Zhi Yao spoke on the other side.
"The prince is responsible for the surrender this time," Zhiyao said.
This is nothing, and it has some meaning.
There is no current king in the Lu State, so Zhikai can accumulate prestige by accepting the surrender.
What is the key question? Han Geng is the ruler of the original country, and he has come to "Qufu". The ruler of the Lu State has come forward to surrender. Even if it is not Han Geng's turn to come forward, it is appropriate to use any one of the Nine Qings to accept the surrender.
of.
Zhiyao also talked about some special circumstances of the Lu State, including why they did not adopt the method of annexation by force at the last step and accepted this method of annexation.
That is something that can be ignored but needs to be taken care of. To put it simply, there are too many "Confucians" in the Lu country. They may not be able to play a key role in the front. If their mouths are not blocked, they will talk nonsense all over the world.
.
Do you know one thing? That is, after the First Emperor swept across Liuhe, he recruited talented and learned people from all over the world and appointed them as doctors. On the one hand, he wanted them to stop talking about the local area, and secondly, he wanted to gain their acceptance and use their eloquence and fame to make Liuhe
The old land of the country was stabilized.
What was the result? The First Emperor did not express his sincerity to this group of people, but the treatment was not lacking at all. It could even be said to be unusually preferential treatment. However, in exchange for this group of people's uncooperation, even more so during the Taishan Zen ceremony held by the First Emperor.
A shameful event happened.
The First Emperor wanted to use Mount Tai to consecrate the throne to prove that his rule was recognized by God. A group of doctors were obviously capable of doing things extremely well, but they chose to delay it with endless quarrels.
When the First Emperor couldn't stand it, he appointed Li Si to be solely responsible for the ceremony of consecrating Mount Tai. However, on the day when the ceremony was officially held, it rained on the mountainside. After the ceremony was completed, the First Emperor returned to the camp in embarrassment and was laughed at by the doctors.
The above incident is a real incident recorded in history books, which is enough to prove how courageous some people are.
Zhiyao couldn't stop those people's mouths by herself, at least she could use Sanhuan to disgust them, right?
Han Geng tasted another meaning and thought in a cold sweat: "Is this the last chance given by the king, or does he want to force the Han family to rebel?"
