Father Han Gaozu

At this moment, Lu Lu was tied up by the pavilion chief.Lu Lu looked helpless, a majestic man named Jian Jianhou.

Even if he was arrested, it should be the Tingwei who came to arrest him, but what should he do if he was caught by the pavilion chief?

Although Lu Lu also has martial arts, it is obviously incomparable to those carefully selected doctors. What's more, Master Lu has made a lot of money these days, enjoying it all day long, and his physical fitness is constantly declining. Before getting on the horse in time, he was held down by angry farmers.

Then turn it over to the pavilion chief.

"This guy is an accomplice. There is also a tall guy with that size. He didn't want to serve the country. He went to the battlefield, but came here to trample on the farmland. They ruined an acre of my land!! A group of dogs entered Yes, I will definitely sue the county government!"

The farmer spoke with a Kansai accent, jumping his feet anxiously.

The head of the pavilion is a short man with a mighty beard. He is about forty years old. There are several pavilion soldiers standing beside him. At this moment, he can't help cursing: "So many people have escaped now, punishment is inevitable. , However, if this accomplice is caught, perhaps the other key criminals can be caught and we can be pardoned."

The head of the pavilion stopped them. He looked at the aristocratic gentleman in front of him, but there was not much fear in his eyes. If he had been given ten guts in the past, he would not have dared to catch someone who looked like an aristocrat. , but now, times are different.

His Majesty is extremely partial to the common people and low-level officials, but he is quite strict with the rich and powerful.

Even the largest Chehou in the country has to be careful. I don’t know how many people are staring at them. Every year, many Chehous are deprived of food or expelled from the country because of various crimes, and newspapers report about these things every day. For example, a certain Hou rammed a car into a person, causing death and destroying the country.A certain Hou contacted his friends to retaliate against the officials who provoked him, and the country was sentenced to death.

Zhang Shizhi is very serious again, he doesn’t care who you are or whether you are a royal relative. It turned out that one of Zhang Cang’s sons was caught by Zhang Shizhi’s men because he harassed women in the street, sentenced to exile, and thrown away. When he arrived in Xiting Kingdom, he immediately reprimanded Zhang Cang in court for lax discipline. Zhang Cang didn't dare to speak back, but just bowed his head and confessed.That's the three princes of the current dynasty, Zhang Shizhi, the teacher most respected by the emperor, can do this, let alone other people?

Liu Chang even encouraged officials from all over the country to enforce the law impartially, and deliberately identified some officials who enforced the law impartially as positive examples for publicity.

I have to say that the newspaper is really a big killer, and it is always moving toward the officials to release the current direction of the temple. Yes, today's temples encourage "strong officials", and the atmosphere is to appreciate those who are upright People, despise those who bow their heads to the powerful.

The head of the pavilion asked the farmers what happened, recorded it, and drew the portraits of the criminals according to their descriptions, and then took the criminals back to his pavilion.

"Name?"

"I'm not an accomplice, I just saw them conflicting and came to persuade them" "Name?!"

"I have a high position and authority. You can't interrogate me. It's best to ask Chang'an Ling to come. Or ask Ting Wei to send someone. This is for your own good!"

...

"Threatening the pavilion chief, the crime will be added! Record it."

Lu Lu looked around, and said aggrievedly: "Let me go, I will let you be promoted, and I can give you land, money, as much as you want."

"Intending to bribe, the crime is aggravated, record it!" "Name?!"

Lu Lu couldn't help it immediately, and said angrily: "Jiangcheng Hou Lulu!!"

The pavilion chief was stunned, raised his head, and looked at Lu Lu in front of him. Lu Lu gritted his teeth and said, "I am the great man Chehou, the emperor's close servant, and the son of the queen mother. I can order the court officials to come!!"

"age?"

After recording Lu Lu's information, the head of the pavilion asked about the situation of his accomplices again, but this time, Lu Lu did not dare to say anything, just lowered his head and remained silent. Finally, the head of the pavilion escorted him to Chang'an. It was sent to the county magistrate, who will conduct further interrogation and interrogation.

Chang'an made Xu Chang look at the escorted Hou Jiancheng in surprise, and the pavilion chief greeted him and told the original location of the matter.

"The man at the head is extremely tall, about nine feet tall, riding a white horse, surrounded by
After seven or eight armored men were chased by me, they fled immediately. Their horses were strong, and I couldn’t catch up, so I could only watch them flee.”

Xu Chang was dumbfounded when he heard the head of the pavilion describe the image of the chief culprit. He looked at the unremarkable ruthless man in front of him in surprise, and immediately stood up. For some reason, his expression became a little polite, and he said with a smile: "Come on, Please sit down, please sit down and talk"

Liu Chang returned to the palace in a hurry, entered Houde Hall, wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the doctors around him, and asked, "Lu Lu probably won't betray me?"

Li Guang shook his head, "Of course not after completion."

"Those farmers who bully the few with the more are not heroes! And you guys, seeing me being scolded, don't dare to speak back. It's really disappointing!"

Liu Chang looked at these doctors with displeasure.

These well-selected sons of good families from all over the country, the honored sons all lowered their heads, and Li Guang refused to admit defeat and said: "Your Majesty, we are all how can we scold those farmers? If Your Majesty orders, I will One person can take them all!"

"Oh, clean it up? We trampled on the farmland first, and they came to ask for responsibility, and you still want to beat them? I didn't see it on weekdays. Are you so good at beating?"

Liu Chang's eyes fell on Li Guang, and Li Guang immediately felt the danger, "No, what I mean is that I am just giving an example."

Li Guang is good in all aspects, but there is one thing that makes Liu Chang quite uncomfortable, that is, he has a high self-esteem. There are not many arrogant people around Liu Chang, and Liu Chang himself is the same, arrogant and arrogant. In the past, he was like Chen Ping and Zhou Bo. , Xia Houying and others are all arrogant people. Today's Jia Yi and Chao Cuo also have a sense of arrogance, but this is different from Li Guang. Their arrogance is that they look down on the people around them and feel that they are better than them.

And Li Guang's arrogance is that he feels that he has a high status and looks down on people with a lower status than himself. The two are different. They are also offended by small people, and the behaviors taken by both parties may be different.

"You are all people who follow me. You can't avoid cursing. In the future, you have to practice more. If you encounter such a situation again, you can't let me face so many people alone, can you?"

...

"It's a good thing that Lu Lu fell into their hands. Anyway, he can afford it. In the end, he must have turned it over to Ting Wei. By the way, if Zhang Shizhi asks, you don't know anything, understand?"

"only!!"

Just as Liu Chang continued to give instructions to the doctors, a close servant hurried in and said, "Your Majesty! Ting Wei Zhang Shi came to see you before!"

Liu Chang turned pale with fright, "This guy came so fast?? So efficient?" "Quick, you run away from the small door. Quickly bring me a book! Change clothes!!"

Soon, Zhang Shizhi dragged Lu Lu into the temple. He had a straight face and was not angry. Liu Chang didn't like Legalists like him very much. Legalists shouldn't be like Zhang Buyi and Chao Cuo. Is everything up to me?How can there be a legalist like you?
Zhang Shizhi pushed Lu Lu in front of Liu Chang, and then he bowed to see him.Liu Chang put down the book in his hand in surprise, "Shi Zhi? Why are you here?"

"Your Majesty, Jianchenghou was captured by the pavilion chief. A group of people trampled on the farmland outside Shanglin Garden, arrested and fled, and Jianchenghou was among them."

"Ah?? Lu! How can you do such a thing?"

Liu Chang looked at Lu Lu sadly, and asked, "Have you made any compensation?"

Zhang Shizhi continued: "According to their description, the leader is extremely tall, riding a white horse, Your Majesty, why is that?"

"There are such tall people in Chang'an? Why didn't I know? I have been studying in the temple all day."

Looking at the appearance of the emperor, Zhang Shizhi knew in his heart that he would definitely not admit it. Zhang Shizhi took a deep breath and said just now: "Your Majesty, although the great Han rule the country with filial piety, the Han law is the foundation of the country. Basically, if the emperor takes the lead in violating the law, how will he govern the country in the future?"

Zhang Shizhi said a lot of truths, and then he left angrily.

Lu Lu sighed, "Your Majesty, why did you abandon me if you wanted to escape?"

"Ahem, if you are caught by the pavilion chief, it's nothing, but if I'm caught, it's a bad smell

Ten thousand years."

"After the minister's death, there must be no good posthumous title."

"You don't have to worry about this. With Zhen here, I will definitely not let you be given a bad posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous title. Even if you can't give it to Jiancheng Wenhou, you can give it to Yi, Su or something."

Liu Chang appeased Lu Lu, and then said happily: "The big man is really different now, the folk customs are brave, it is really different in the past. I remember when I was young, I went out to play, and I was the son of Jinghou of Yangling. You can bully the people wantonly, no one dares to question the crime, and we have to clean it up by ourselves. But you see now, even with my posture, those people are not afraid, and dare to come forward and abuse."

"Facing so many people in armor, the head of the pavilion dares to chase and shoot arrows."

Liu Chang said excitedly: "This is the big man under my rule. He will not be bullied easily. He is not as cowardly as he was when the king was stupid. Although I lost the scolding battle today, I am in a good mood. I didn't expect that the folk customs have become so brave."

"Now it seems that even if I'm gone one day, the common people will not be bullied by foreign enemies!" Liu Chang was very happy about the skyrocketing civil martial arts.

What happened today proves that the rule of law was still in place during Liu Chang's administration. Neither the common people nor low-level officials were afraid of being criminals. Zhang Shizhi, Ji Bu and the others did a good job!

...

Just as Liu Chang was bragging about his merits to Lu Lu, Jia Yi and Prince Liu An came to see him.

"Meet Your Majesty!!"

The two greeted each other, and Liu An also came to visit him as an official at this moment, so his expression was very solemn.Liu Chang nodded and asked them to sit down respectively, and Liu An sat behind Jia Yi.

"Your Majesty, we have made preparations. Here is the list. Please check it out."

These days, the achievements of Shihuofu are obvious to all. Among other things, the abolition of the curfew is enough to make them gain momentum. As a new department that has just been born, the scope of their interference is getting wider and wider.
Currency and market prices are also under their jurisdiction. The new Shaofu Ling Nangongwei is very dissatisfied with this, but there is nothing he can do. Comparable.Under their control, the market prospered rapidly, and Dahan's business exploded with unprecedented vitality after a long drought.

Liu An handed the list to Liu Chang, who lowered his head and looked at it seriously.

This is a list of merchants, which records those big merchants, including their family property information, and the goods to be brought to the Western Regions this time. It is very detailed. There are 86 big merchants. Liu Chang grinned suddenly. He laughed, "Come here, why don't you give me a gift, Lu! Send a copy of this to Liu Jing of Hexi Kingdom!!"

Jia Yi was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty! No way!!"

Only then did Liu Chang realize, "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm used to it, how about this, let's pass it to Liu Jing, but tell him that these people are not allowed to move, and they want to do foreign trade, so they must go through the Hexi Kingdom. Liu Jing, don't attack them."

Liu An then said: "Your Majesty, when will we send them out?" "No hurry. Let's do it tomorrow!"

Liu An pursed his lips, and immediately accepted the order.

Jia Yi frowned, "Your Majesty, we don't know the situation of the battle in the Western Regions yet, if we go early"

"You don't have to worry about this. The Marquis of Huaiyin will go out in person, so you can tell me how to lose? You can definitely win this battle. Don't wait. When the caravan arrives in the Western Regions, maybe the poisonous people are already waiting in the Western Regions." gone."

Several people talked about the specific details again, and Jia Yi couldn't help but asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that Zhang Buyi and Chao Cuo wrote a letter again, requesting to relocate the people of Yuding in the Central Plains, and even force them to relocate. I don't know if it's true or not?" Really, you have a different opinion?"

Liu An couldn't help asking: "Father, do you still agree with them?"

"I heard that they wanted to relocate nearly a million people. At the beginning, the King of Qin only relocated hundreds of thousands. If it was forced to relocate like this, it might cause a catastrophe. Whether it is land reclamation, residence, or household registration It is not something that can be done easily. Under such a scale, it is inevitable
There will be omissions, a little omission, but it will cost the lives of tens of thousands of people."

"I know, that's why I asked the ministers to discuss and work out a method that will not make any mistakes." Liu An also changed his words directly, "Father, this is not right, it will affect the reputation of the temple and affect the reputation of the temple." Your reputation."

...

"The people all call you the Holy Son of Heaven, and they admire you immensely. If you give the order to move forward and migrate, it can be said that all previous efforts will be wasted."

Liu Chang laughed, "It's not that I separated their parents and wives, but moved as relatives of households. Besides, after the migration, they can go back and visit them at any time. Why did I restrict them from going out? After all, the cultivated land in the Central Plains is limited. , unless Shangfang has made something new, otherwise, there is simply no way to support so many people, if I don’t do anything because I’m worried about my reputation, then all my previous efforts will be wasted!”

"But."

"It's nothing to worry about, Ann, you have to remember that everyone has their own responsibilities, and the emperor's responsibilities are to protect the people from disasters. Govern the world well and let the people live a good life. You can help the people For the sake of thinking, this is good, but this matter is based on a long-term perspective. We can’t just look at the current situation. Today’s people live very well in the Central Plains. Liang’s land is fertile and the atmosphere is relaxed, and people are unwilling to leave.”

"But what about the future?"

"This is for the long-term. The people today may be reluctant, but at least it can avoid large-scale famine in the future... Is it better to leave your hometown reluctantly than starve to death at home?"

"As long as you let the people have enough to eat, the hearts and minds of the people will naturally belong to you. If you let them not have enough to eat and starve to death, no matter how many so-called benevolent policies you practice, it is just an invitation to fame, and it is of no use."

"To be a king, you don't necessarily have to have the moral character of Yao and Shun, but you must have the achievements of the first emperor. For the emperor, only his achievements are the standard for measuring him. Otherwise, no matter how talented he is, how noble his moral character is, It is his dereliction of duty to prevent the common people from living a good life and prevent the country from being strong!!"

Liu An hesitated for a long time, but couldn't find anything to refute Father.

Father, who is serious, is an all-rounder, top-notch in all aspects.

Looking at the thoughtful Liu An, Liu Chang grinned, "So, instead of thinking about how to persuade me, it is better to think about ways to settle down the people so that they will suffer less. I have done so much over the years As long as the common people understand that this matter is for future survival, they will understand, otherwise, wouldn’t my actions in these years be in vain?”

From the beginning to the end, Jia Yi didn't say much, but listened carefully to the emperor's story.

"The matter of foreign trade has been settled in this way. The top priority is grain, and then cotton, Li Chen. Tell those merchants that if anyone dares to get some flashy things, let them give them to Liu Jing , let Liu Jing watch it!!"

"Okay, let's get out!!"

Liu Chang waved his hand and was unwilling to say more.

When he left the palace, Liu An seemed to be still thinking about what his father said. Looking at the prince who was lost in thought, Jia Yi just said calmly, "Your Majesty loves the prince."

"Oh? How can you see it?"

"This matter should be worried about in the future, but His Majesty is unwilling to let the prince bear a bad reputation, so he decided to deal with His Majesty himself. This is to bear all the notoriety, and give the future credit to His Highness."

Liu An was silent for a moment.

Jia Yi said again: "Your Majesty has always been like this, even bearing the notoriety of usurping the throne, of course he doesn't care about other things. It's just that there are too few people in the world who can understand His Majesty."

Liu An was taken aback, turned around and walked towards Houde Hall again.Jia Yi raised his head and smiled slightly.

ps: With the help of the local department, the injection has been given and the situation is stable. Thank you for your help and concern.
