Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 413
Zhou Chang was blocked at Tingwei's door, but Zhang Wuxuan went in.

This is not because Zhang Budo's status is higher, the big man respects the right, and Zhou Chang, the right minister, has a higher status than Zhang Budo, the left minister.

It's just that Zhang Budo is different from Zhou Chang. Zhang Budo was ordered by the Son of Heaven to look for someone from Tingwei, while Zhou Chang was because of his own business.

Looking at Zhang Budo, who was already fluttering, Zhou Chang didn't say anything, just left here bitterly.

Walking into Tingwei, Zhang Budo looked around, exactly like the demeanor of a prime minister who came to inspect Tingwei.

"It's very good that you can stop Zhou Chang today. In the past, powerful people always picked up criminals from Tingwei privately, sent them letters, and met them. That Wang Tianqi didn't dare to stop them. I wrote many times to impeach this traitor. , now you are not afraid of Zhou Chang, but you are different from Wang Tianqi, I am not wrong!"

"You have to fulfill your duties in the future, and you must not follow Wang Tianqi's example, let alone the prime minister, even if the queen mother sends people, you are not allowed to enter!!"

"only!"

"Zhang Xiang, please come this way."

"Haha."

Zhang Budo couldn't help but let out a strange laugh.

It sounds so comfortable.

Zhang Shizhi's head iron is different from Chao Cuo's head iron. According to the law, Zhang Shizhi dared to stop even the emperor, but he would not be rude to other ministers, even if he stopped Zhou Chang, He is also respectfully called Zhou Xiang, if it is Chao Cuo, then he will definitely dare to call him an old dog.That's why two people with the same tough heads have completely different reputations in the court. The ministers didn't like Zhang Shizhi, but they respected him very much and felt that he was a real straight minister.

As for Chao Cuo, everyone thought that he was a traitor just like Zhang Budo.

When Zhang Budo walked into the prison, Liu Jing was chatting with an old man, and the chat was quite happy, it didn't look like he was in prison at all.

Zhang Budo walked in, and someone opened the door immediately. After he walked in, he waited for Liu Jingxing to worship and meet him.

But Liu Jing just looked at Zhang Budo calmly, "Your Majesty asked you to come? Please sit down."

Speaking of business, Zhang Budo ignored the prestige of the country's prime minister, sat directly in front of Liu Jing, looked at the old man beside him, and said, "Take him out and lock him up elsewhere."

The soldiers took the old prisoner out, and Zhang Budo said, "Your Majesty asked me to come to you to discuss important matters."

"So, your Majesty agrees?"

"I don't fully agree. Luoyang still needs to build it, but the checkpoint must be built first. The food produced by Chang'an still can't feed so many people. With the current trend of increasing the household registration of Han, it may only be Liang Guo or Qi Guo who can rely on it. I have the ability to feed so many people, but these two places are safe places."

"The number of people in Chang'an is close to one million, accounting for 5.00% of the household registration in the world. Luoyang also needs to transport grain. However, transporting grain to Luoyang will not cost as much as it is today. It is necessary to open the canal, or by You are in charge of this matter."

Liu Jing listened carefully to Zhang Budo's words, "I still want to discuss with Your Majesty face to face."

"Your Majesty doesn't take me as despicable, worships me as a picture, and makes me responsible for this matter. If you have any ideas, you can tell me first."

"Ok??"

A hint of consternation finally appeared on Liu Jing's face. Are you the prime minister? ? ?

"Okay, then talk to Zhang Xiang"

The two sat in the prison and discussed the channels and other matters. Liu Jing's idea was to grab the wealthy family and smash the wool to the death. He planned to let the wealthy family take care of the water channel. Don't ask anything. If you ask, the emperor will bless you. Zhang Budo listened carefully to his many thoughts, and the two conspired.

This is the first time Liu Jing has cooperated with Zhang Budo. The two have worked together before, but most of the time, the division of labor is different, and they have not been jointly responsible for the same thing. However, when the two came to work together, Liu Jing told Zhang Bu Doubtful views have gradually changed.

Liu Jing has never liked Zhang Budo very much. He thinks that this person is too flattering and has no real talent.

But when he was about to do business with him, Liu Jing just found out that this fellow is quite smart and has a quick wit.

Liu Jinggang said that when he launched the wealthy family, Zhang Budo suggested that he should build a stone tablet to remember the contributions of the participants.

Liu Jinggang talked about the connection of various waters, and Zhang Budo proposed the idea of ​​dividing the waters and setting up a water network. He believed that all the waterways in the world could be connected to form a network of waterways that wraps around various places. In addition, it can also play a huge role in today's congested traffic.

Liu Jing gradually put away his contempt.

Zhang Budo is okay, he has always known that the person in front of him is very talented.

After confirming many ideas, Zhang Budo is ready to leave.

"Don't think that Your Majesty is punishing you, Your Majesty is protecting you! You have offended too many people, and no one here dares to treat you badly. Your Majesty is merciful! Even though you don't know how to flatter you and insult you many times, he still uses Tolerance is the main thing, and even said that you went to prison because you wanted to persuade Dibao to go to a bad name for you!"

"How in the world can a king sacrifice his reputation for himself?!"

"When you meet such a wise and benevolent king, how dare you be rude to His Majesty!"

"Now that I'm the prime minister, no matter how talented you are, if you dare to say anything disrespectful to your majesty, I will definitely dig your tongue out!"

Zhang Buxuan reprimanded Liu Jing with a slap in the face, and then walked out.

Liu Jing laughed, the new prime minister was quite interesting.

After Zhang Budo left, Liu Jing's cellmate was brought in again.

The inmate looked handsome, with a long beard and all white hair, but he was very handsome. He sat next to Liu Jing again. The inmate's name was Sima Jizhu. He is a master of the Huang-Lao School, and his status may not be as good as that of the prince, but in terms of knowledge, he may not be afraid of the prince.

This man has deep attainments in learning, and he knows some knowledge of various schools, but he has a small hobby that is not very suitable, and likes to squat on the side of the road to give people divination.

This hobby was nothing in the past. But after Wu Zong, there were obviously some problems.

Liu Jing knew this person, and after he was imprisoned, he asked Zhang Shizhi to keep this person with him. In their spare time, the two exchanged knowledge. To be precise, it was Liu Jing who asked him some academic questions. In terms of academics, ten Liu Jings tied together are not as good as each other. Of course, in terms of administration, the ten Sima Jizhu are not as good as one Liu Jing.

"Which one was just now?"

"Hahaha, you are proficient in Yi, Huang Dishu, why can't you figure out who he is?"

Sima Jizhu narrowed his eyes, smiled, and said, "Then I'll do the math."

He lowered his head and counted lightly, "This person must be Zhang Budo!"

Liu Jing was stunned, "Can you really figure it out?"

"That's natural, he's not old, and the court officials are very polite to him. He looks very handsome and arrogant, and he treats you with contempt. It's not the rumored Censor Zhang Budo or who? ?"

Sima Jizhu said confidently.

"You figured it out, but you didn't figure it out."

"No, it's just a way. In the end, it's all a kind of exploration. I don't believe in these things, but I hope to explore the world through these things. You say, what exactly is Tao?"

Liu Jing was stunned for a moment, unable to answer immediately.

At this moment, next to the new pavilion in the palace.

With bare feet, Liu An sat casually on the edge of a stone, supported his body with his arms, and looked at the water stream in the distance, wondering what he was thinking.

The wind blew lightly across his face, and Liu An's eyes followed the direction of the wind slowly away.

Liu Qi and others stood not far away, pointing at him.

"He started again"

Liu Xiang shook his head, "An is fine with everything, he just likes to go crazy from time to time. You said he doesn't play, so what is he doing sitting there?"

Liu Wei said hesitantly: "I heard that I read a lot of books and it's like this."

Liu Xiang said proudly: "Fortunately, I never read."

Liu Qi scolded: "What do you know? An is thinking of great truths like the ancient sages!"

"Could it be that you are thinking of Qin's daughter?"

A few Shuzi crept up to Liu An's side.

Some of Liu An's behaviors are really strange to these stubbs. Their brother always has books by his side. When he is not reading, he likes to sit alone in a quiet place. , I usually have to sit for a long time, and I don't know what to do. Every time I ask, there are some very strange answers, which they can't understand at all.

Seeing these shuzis coming, Liu An looked at them with a smile.

"Why are you here?"

Liu Xiang asked cautiously, "An, what are you doing?"

Liu An looked around, and suddenly said with emotion: "I'm feeling the Tao, I want to know, what is this Tao?"

This question is obviously out of line for these stubbys. They are dazed and can't understand what Liu An is talking about.

However, Liu An continued: "Tao, it covers the sky and carries the earth, expands in all directions, is too high to touch the top, and is too deep to measure the bottom, wrapping the heaven and the earth, invisibly germinating all things, and using the sky as a car cover, there is nothing that cannot be covered. If the ground is used as the carriage, there is nothing that cannot be carried, the four seasons are used as a good horse, and there is nothing that cannot be driven, and the yin and yang are used as the hand, and there is nothing incomplete.”

Several scepters looked at each other in dismay.

Listening to Liu An talking to himself as always.

"What the hell is he talking about??"

Liu Qi was silent for a moment, "Probably very profound knowledge."

"That's why the teacher never scolds him, right?"

"The teacher didn't scold him because he was afraid that the eldest mother would give him a bar?"

"fart!"

A few Shuzi stood beside Liu An, laughing and playing, while Liu An was sighing about the world to himself. This scene formed a very sharp contrast.At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, perhaps Han Xin could carry the word "zi" and be regarded as a saint of the military family, but the concept of military family was too big to be determined, and Han Xin did not have his own writing of the art of war handed down.Future inscription writers, whether it is Shusuntong, Zhang Cang, Fuqiubo, Lu Jia, Jia Yi
They are all very learned, but they are still not worthy of the word "zi", and they are still one step behind the sages.

And the first real sage of the Han Dynasty, the master of the Huang-Lao School, he was called Liu Anzi at that time, and was often called Huainanzi after the Han Dynasty. This Huainanzi is not the son of the King of Huainan, but a Respectfully, just like Confucius, Xunzi, Han Feizi is a truth, but at this moment Han Feizi is still called Han Zi, only later a Han Yu, he became Han Feizi.

He did not obtain the detached status of a sage later, mainly because his deeds affected his reputation, and the big man did not dare to tout a rebel.
At this moment, this budding sage has given birth to a sense of exploration of the Tao.

Liu Chang naturally didn't know that the sages he tried so hard to cultivate were actually always under his nose.

Liu An just stayed for a moment, then got up and prepared to go to the Hall of Houde.

In the evening, he wanted to ask his father to help sort out the ink scriptures.

After he left, Liu Xiang also hesitated for a moment, looked around, and asked, "What the hell is this?"

Liu Xian poked Liu Qi's waist.

"Brother, do you want me to call the imperial doctor's order??"

Liu Xiang sighed bitterly: "This is probably as incomprehensible as General Qin's daughter."

"Father, look at this. The Book of Ink says"

"Oh, Xiaokong Chengxiang, what he said is right, light travels in a straight line, and there is no need to modify it."

"Ah? Father, what does Xiao Kong Chengxiang mean?"

"That's what Mozi said."

"Then the force he said, the reason why the punishment is so hard is that it is heavy."

"Oh, force is what causes objects to move faster, then gravity and weight."

I don't know why, Liu Changming didn't have much exposure to these contents, but after seeing these familiar conversations, he couldn't help but recall a lot of relevant knowledge in his mind. Liu Chang unconsciously began to give Liu An He told the story, "This gravity, that is the force that the object receives due to the attraction, the object that exerts the force of gravity is the center of the earth, and the direction of gravity is always straight down. You know?"

Liu An was stunned, "Father, what is attraction?"

"Father will do an experiment for you"

Liu Chang grabbed Liu An, threw it out, and caught him in Liu An's exclamation.

"Look, after you were thrown by me, you didn't go straight to the sky, but instead landed on the ground."

"Father, if you throw it a few more times, maybe I'll really ascend to heaven."

Liu Chang vaguely remembered that he was always dreaming when he was young, dreaming of many strange things. At that time, no one else believed it. Now those dreams are already in a trance, but Liu Chang can always remember some things. something in a dream.Naturally, he didn't know that this situation was understood in later generations as "failure to seize the home". The broken soul after traveling through time did not win, but instead became a memory, a vague memory.

Only the most profound knowledge can be eroded.

In this case, only when talking about the most familiar content will Liu Chang have a little memory stimulated, as if he had experienced it himself, and he doesn't know how he mastered these things.

When he was young, Liu Chang thought that this was a blessing from the gods. He called out to the unknown god all day long and wanted to meet him. Born to hate", Liu Chang became an identified anti-sacrificial practitioner and the natural enemy of alchemists.

On this day, Liu An was surprised to find that he had always despised this grandfather.

The father and son spent the whole night editing and modifying the contents of the Ink Sutra.

Liu Chang can see at a glance whether this idea is correct and whether there is any omission. He can also give Liu An an example to prove that Liu An is completely stunned.

The next day, when he appeared in front of the prince, he was still blank.

"His Royal Highness? What happened?"

Liu An turned his head blankly and said to Feng Tang, "Please bring the book in."

Feng Tang put the thick paper in front of everyone.

"This is what my father wrote last night, please take a look."

Except for Zhang Cang, who had already prepared, everyone else was terrified.

"It's impossible. Could it be that there are books from the Mo family in the palace??"

Everyone looked at the contents in astonishment, while Liu An shook his head.

"I always felt that my father's idea of ​​entering the Confucian Temple was too much, but today, he should build the temple alone."

"Feng Gong, please go and tell the King of Hexi and the others, and say that I can't go out until later, and let them go to Pingyang Hou's mansion to eat secretly."

Feng Tang's face darkened and he walked out of the mansion. Feng Tang raised his head and looked at the blue sky, his face full of despair.

"Oh, why did I go to persuade Your Majesty in the first place?"

In the past few days, the most exciting news in Chang'an is the matter of Zhang Budo as prime minister.

Liu Chang has officially ordered to take Zhang Budo as his photo.

The ministers simply cannot accept this.

But if you don't accept it, you don't accept it, and you still have to meet.

On the same day, the ministers came to see the new state minister one after another. It wasn't because of their power that they wanted to please Zhang Budo, but the rules of the big Han were like this. The state minister had a high status. In the early Han Dynasty, ordinary ministers saw The ministers are supposed to call themselves ministers, and they wear different crowns. When the new state minister is in the position, the ministers must go to see and ask for advice and fill in the gaps. This is a tradition in the early years of the Han Dynasty. period gradually disappeared.

Zhang Budo was sitting in the upper seat, and there were many ministers in front of him.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty Shengming."

The ministers had no choice but to follow him and shout.

"I am very pleased that all the lords have come to ask me about state affairs this time!"

"In the future, this major domestic event will require the unity of all the monarchs, and we must not live up to His Majesty's high hopes!!"

Zhang Budo spoke proudly, but the ministers could only listen respectfully.

"In the future, the ministers must not offend Your Majesty, they must not quarrel or speak loudly during court meetings, they must always remember His Majesty's kindness, and they must often write memorials to express their hearts. His Majesty is the emperor of the sages of the Han Dynasty, and the ministers will go up later. To the court, we must first sing praises to His Majesty's merits."

Looking at this outrageous prime minister, Lu Jia couldn't help but ask Wang Tianqi, "Is this the real son of Liuhou???"

Wang Tianqi smiled and was about to answer.

Zhang Budo asked angrily, "Your Majesty!! What are you and Lu Gong talking about?!"

Wang Tianqi got up in a hurry, "Zhang Xiang, Duke Lu said that you are really the son of Liuhou!!"
