Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 445 Your Mark
In the Hall of Houde, Liu Chang flipped through the books in front of him, checked it carefully, and wrote something with a pen from time to time.

Lu Lu was really frightened.

When has he seen his Majesty read seriously? ?
The imperial physician Ling Xia Wuqi was invited three times by him. After a pulse diagnosis, it was determined that His Majesty was very healthy and there was nothing abnormal.

Liu Chang frowned, tapped the case in front of him lightly, and sighed from time to time. It seemed that he was in great trouble. Seeing Liu Chang's appearance, Lu Lu was also a little helpless, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that Shanglinyuan sent a batch of prey, all of which were sent from the southern country to make clothes."

Liu Chang's eyes lit up, "Si? How many?"

"There are 43 of them. Shall I get the bow?"

Liu Chang stood up happily and was about to order something, but he held back.

"Forget it, now is not the time to go out hunting, let's wait until I'm done!"

Liu Chang sat down again, looking at the book in front of him and thinking hard.

These are some of the works and annotations of the Mohist school that Liu Chang opened.Shang Fang ordered Chen Tao to visit Chang Liu many times to ask about the progress of the book.Liu Chang originally planned to perfunctory him with the idea of ​​procrastinating for a day, but Chen Tao just refused to give up. No matter where he met Liu Chang, he would always ask questions, which made Liu Chang think. Whether or not to let this fellow out.

However, Chen Tao's words moved him again.

Chen Tao told Liu Chang that today's Shangfang has become a prominent government, and the craftsmen are working hard to develop various machines and even new technologies, and these research and development are messy, and in Chen Tao's view, there are still many loopholes. Shang Fang is still using the research and development theories left by Qin Mo. It's not that Chen Tao looks down on Qin Mo, but it's just that Qin Mo's research and development theories are still a bit out of place when used in the research and development of this big man. .

Qin Mo is most concerned about rigor when it comes to research and development. For research and development, he must first analyze the mechanical effect that Shangguan needs, and then use the effect to deduce. The research and development process must be rigorous. Cost consumption, etc., are all things that Qin people develop new weapons.

After being drunk that day, Liu Chang said a lot of his views and requirements on R&D.

Chen Tao felt that if these things could be written down and used as the standard and goal of Shang Fang's future research and development, the merit would be far greater than that of His Majesty's research and development of a hundred machines.

"Under the whole world, the only one who can do this is His Majesty!"

Perhaps it was Chen Tao's flattery that prevented Liu Chang from stepping down, or perhaps he also agreed with what Chen Tao said. Anyway, now he really started to write this book and the name, Liu Chang thought about it for a long time and took it. It is called "Lattice", and Liu Chang's own interpretation of lattice is: the knowledge and knowledge of predicting things with verifiable explanations is a formal knowledge.
Liu Chang wrote these words with confidence, and up to now, the article is still within the range of these few words, and there is no more than half a word.

Liu Chang did have a lot of memories about these things in his mind, but it would be a bit too embarrassing for Liu Chang to list these things out.

The helpless Liu Chang decided to copy and learn from Mozi, so he found these Mohist articles again, and began to read and search continuously. The gains cannot be said to be huge, but they are few.

Although Liu Chang himself always called himself a sage, this was really not something he was good at.

Just as he frowned, he heard footsteps outside the hall.

Liu Changchun was overjoyed and raised his head, "Is Luan Bu here?!"

The next moment, Zhang Wuzhu walked into the hall, and when he heard Liu Chang's question, Zhang Wuzhu's face became a little stiff, pursed his lips, and looked at Liu Chang quietly.

"Cough, I don't doubt I'm back? I thought it was Luan Bu, come, sit!"

"How? Is the arrangement of the official registration of the move in properly?"

Zhang Budo talked about what he had done this time, and when he saw the books placed in front of Liu Chang, he was shocked, and hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty? You are."

"It's a long story. I deeply feel the powerlessness of Shang Fang. Seeing the decline of the Mohist school today, I deliberately decided to annotate the classics of the Mohist school in order to enhance Fang's ability."

Standing on the side, Lu Lu couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty has been busy with this matter all these days. His Majesty has not been out hunting for two days."

"What?? Haven't been out hunting for two days??"

Zhang Budo was shocked. It seems that His Majesty really attaches great importance to this matter. There is nothing that can make Liu Chang give up his hunting hobby. You must know that when King Chu Yuan passed away, His Majesty was devastated. He was there for four days. In the palace, I went hunting in Shanglin Garden on the fifth day. On the one hand, His Majesty was optimistic and would not be immersed in grief for a long time. On the other hand, His Majesty really likes hunting.

Liu Chang was very calm, "My teachers can let go of their comfortable lives for government affairs, how can I continue to enjoy themselves?"

"Your Majesty Shengming!!!"

Zhang Buxuan possessed himself and worshipped him. Seeing his excited expression, it seemed as if he was about to cry in the next moment because Liu Chang had not been out hunting for two days. He was very moved.

Liu Chang shook his head, "However, I have no clue. It's not easy to write."

Zhang Budo squinted his eyes and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have heard something."

"You said."

"At the time, Lu Buwei gathered sages, asked them what they thought, and wrote a book together. At that time, some people from Qi said to the left and right that Lu Buwei was not really a sage, and he used the knowledge of others as his name. After Lu Buwei heard about this, he was right. Left and right said, "Because of my ability to hold a high-ranking position, I was able to summon sages from a great country to write together, but I don't even have the ability to serve as a country's prime minister. People who can only wander around seeking official positions can only rectify their own names. ."

Lu Lu frowned, is this the case?

How come I haven't heard of it? ? ?
Zhang Budo continued: "How can your Majesty's power now be comparable to that of a state minister? Why didn't your Majesty summon talents to help you accomplish this?"

Liu Chang asked suspiciously, "But where did the Mo family come from? Chen Tao is the only one who can be called a sage in the entire Mo family. Do you want to bring him over??"

"Since Your Majesty wants to write the book of Shangfang, isn't the old craftsman of Shangfang the sage that Your Majesty needs most?"

"You're right. Then let you take charge of this!"

"only!!"

Zhang Budo took the order immediately, and Liu Chang smiled and put away the books in front of him. He said, "Luan Bu is back. After you came back, you haven't seen him, have you?"

"Never."

"Call Chao Cuo, Ji Bu, and Luan Bu another day, we must have a good meal!"

"only."

After seeing Zhang Budo away, Liu Chang immediately felt a lot more relaxed, and he had a smile on his face again. His face was full of contentment. Lu Lu just sighed with emotion. Now, Zhang Wuxuan solved it with just a few words. As expected of Zhang Zuoxiang.

Putting aside this trouble for a while, Liu Chang went to the Jiaofang Hall to find Cao Shu.

Jiaofangdian is still quite lively.

Cao Shu was sitting in the upper seat, Fan Qing was sitting beside her and talking, while Yong E was beside the two sitting beds, gently coaxing her two children. The bottom layer is semi-circular, so it can be shaken gently, and the top is equipped with protective gear to prevent the child from hurting himself. Liu Bo also sat in front of his younger brothers, his head swaying gently with the shaking of the bed.

The moment he saw Liu Chang's arrival, Liu Bo jumped up suddenly, rushed towards his father, and rushed into his arms.

Liu Chang also quickly caught him, threw it up directly, and then caught him easily.

"Hahaha, I've gotten a lot stronger again, not bad, not bad, in two years, Ann won't be able to beat you!"

Liu Bo shook his head, "I don't beat my brother!"

"No promise!"

Liu Chang rubbed his face and made him laugh out loud, then hugged him and sat down.

Cao Shu looked at him in surprise, "Isn't Your Majesty busy with state affairs? Are you busy so soon?"

"Hahaha, I found a better solution, so I don't need to experience it in order to have something to eat?"

"Have"

When the attendants were about to eat, Chang Liu stuck his head out, looked at Liang Heci, and said with a smile, "These two stubborn ones are stupid and can't even speak!"

Yong'e rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.

Soon, the food was placed in front of Liu Chang, and Bo buried his head to eat. Liu Chang picked up the chopsticks, picked up the meat, but did not swallow it, and put it down again, frowning, not knowing what to do. thinking about something.

"Eat. What are you doing?"

Fan Qing urged.

"I don't know how he is. Did he eat meat?"

Liu Chang stared blankly at the meat in his hand, suddenly put it down, and looked into the distance again, and was about to call Lu Lu, but Cao Shu grabbed him.

"Your Majesty, eat meat."

"I'm not letting him come back, or I'm asking someone to give him some"

"Your Majesty, be patient."

Looking at the conversation between the two, Fan Qing looked blank, "Sister? What are you talking about?"

"No problem. Go and help Yong E see the child!"

"it is good."

Fan Qing took Liu Bo to Yong'e's side. Several people looked at Liu Chang and Cao Shu, and whispered curiously about something. Cao Shu gently stroked Liu Chang's hand and reassured: "It's okay, He still writes to me from time to time, it's not as hard as you think, everything is fine. You don't have to worry, he will be back soon, at this time, you can't let all your achievements go to waste!"

"Ah?? He even wrote to you??"

"This"

"He wrote to my mother, and he wrote to you, but he didn't write to me??"

"This Shuzi knows the eldest mother and grandmother, but not the grandfather!"

"Forget it, forget it, I don't care anymore, take good care of your son!"

Liu Chang said displeasedly, eating the food in front of him, Cao Shu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help frowning.

In Chuan Sikong County, just after dawn, a hurried knock on the door broke the silence in the mansion.

The old woman slowly opened the door and saw a strange postman.

The postman looked at the letter in his hand and said impatiently: "There is a letter, the recipient is safe!"

The old woman was not surprised and hurriedly called Liu An out. Liu An rubbed his eyes and walked to the door. The moment he saw the postman, he was completely drowsy and instantly refreshed. Only when he was away from his family , perhaps to understand the meaning of the letter from home, Liu An impatiently stepped forward, signed his name, and took the letter. The postman looked around and complained, "Don't give me saliva? You can't Borrowing a horse is so far away"

When the postmen in the county are delivering letters, they have to look at the distance. Those who exceed the specified distance can only be sent on horseback. However, because of the large territory of the Han Dynasty, there is no way to follow the example of Qin. Post pawns, Dahan can only be carried out by means of county post.

The old woman smiled and delivered water to the postman from the county.

And Liu An couldn't wait to read the letter. Sure enough, it was written by his mother to himself. During these days, he has been communicating with his eldest mother and his mother. He opened the letter from his mother. The content is as always, let him have a good experience, don't make fun, don't despise the farmers, eat on time, etc. Liu An watched it seriously, a smile appeared on his face, and at the end, his mother's tone became serious. up.

"You give me, eldest mother, give Qing, E and the others correspondence, but only not with your father!"

"What's the point of this?"

"Your grandfather will remind me of you every day, and I miss you very much. When I see delicious food, I will think of whether you eat it or not. Occasionally the wind blows, and he will nervously ask you if the weather is cold over there. In negotiation, he always talks about you, and all the articles you have written are hung on the wall by him. He loves him so much, but you repay so much?! If it wasn't for your grandfather to say, I don't even know, you actually Not a single letter was written to your father!!!”

Liu An was reprimanded in the face and had to silently put away the letter.

The old woman was a little surprised, wasn't she always happy to receive letters in the past?How does it look like this now?

"Ann, is there something wrong at home?"

"No. It was my eldest mother who reprimanded me before, but now my grandmother said the same thing. It was my father who was thinking about me and used me as a child to fool me. How could my father miss me?"

"Father is not that character at all"

The old woman pursed her lips and looked at her husband who was eating not far away.

When the old man heard these words, he pursed his lips, and a trace of sadness appeared on his vicissitudes of life.

He put down his job and said calmly, "I thought the same thing when I was young. I was raised by my grandmother."

"Since I can remember, I haven't seen my grandfather. Every time he comes back, he will lie down at home and sleep soundly, angrily reprimanding me, forbidding me to play, forcing me to practice, and never caring about me at that time. , I always thought that my father didn't love me."

"When I was a little older, I started working at home. Before going out, my grandfather stroked my head and wanted to say something. I ran away."

"And then, I never saw him again."

"I didn't know until I grew up that he died in Changping."

"I also began to go to the battlefield, and I also had my own children. At that time, I realized that a father, different from a mother, always demanded his children harshly, but these words, no matter how much I said, it was nothing With, when you grow up and have your own children, you will understand. But often when you can understand them, they are no longer there. And you probably can't wait for your child's understanding."

After the old man finished speaking, he lowered his head again and started to eat.

Liu An took out his treasured paper and took out a pen.

"Father."

After writing a few words, Liu An was at a loss for what to write. Obviously, when he wrote letters to his grandmother and his eldest mother, he always had so many things to say, but at this moment, facing his grandfather, he had no idea at all. What should I say? After hesitating for a moment, Liu An wrote: "Father is safe? I am here, I know how to cultivate. I eat meat every five days."

After writing for a while, Liu An stopped again and pondered.

"I finally understand why my father doesn't like me reading now. What I have seen and experienced now is indeed different from what is recorded in the books."

"I can see how difficult it is to implement the policy."

"It's the husband Zhang you arranged. He is too tyrannical. A few days ago, a friend came from Chang'an and was beaten and humiliated by him."

"The people all talk about your kindness. Father doesn't need to care about the words of those ministers. Although the people are still very poor, I found that you have accomplished a lot of things."

Liu An wrote faster and faster, and soon, he completed this letter to the family. While he was resting, the eldest son of the father-in-law's family took him to send a letter. To send a letter, he had to go to the nearest post office nearby. When pawns send letters, they will also receive letters here.

The postman picked up the letter and looked at the recipient.

"The owner of the Marquis of Wuyang in Chang'an accepts it."

Many of these people are embroidered clothes, and they naturally know who it is for, so they are rushed to Chang'an, which is not far from here.

"We've said this about practice, and now we're talking about seeking truth from facts and being pragmatic, right?"

Liu Chang looked at the craftsmen in front of him, "You're right, you always felt that there was room for improvement in the salt well technology in the past, and everyone persuaded you that there was no room for improvement, but you insisted on your own ideas and finally did out of today's salt well technology. Yes, to add to that"

"That means there must be criticism and suspicion, right? You can't follow others' opinions, you must stick to your own ideas, and don't be superstitious about the words of the so-called sages."

Liu Chang picked up the pen and recorded a little more.

At this moment, Lu Lu walked in, "Your Majesty, I have a letter from you."

"Oh, put it here first"

Liu Chang put away the letter and continued to chat with the craftsmen in front of him. Through all the emotions of these craftsmen during the actual research and development, Liu Chang accumulated a lot of useful materials, and these craftsmen have no culture. Liu Chang also In this way, Lu Lu didn't know what such a group of people could write.

While the craftsmen were chatting, Liu Chang secretly took out the letter, glanced at it, looked a little surprised, and hurriedly opened it to read.

"Hahaha~~"

Liu Chang raised his head and laughed, and the craftsmen were all taken aback.

"This is my son's letter"

"What good news is there for the prince?"

"It's not a big deal, I just wrote some nonsense, hahaha, the prince is still very talented, if he is here, maybe he can write a lot of what we say, this guy can't do anything else, he is good at writing. , You don't know what he wrote at the beginning, even everyone in Taixue was intimidated, and everyone in Huang Lao even called him a new saint, saying that he would be my patriarch in the future. Such a saint."

The father spoke proudly of his son.
