Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 256
Liu Chan also had a lot of thoughts about letting Zhang Wen take charge of the studies of the princes.

At present, the big man has brought the prince to study, namely Zhuge Liang and Zhang Wen.

Needless to say, Zhuge Liang, as for Zhang Wen's words, he was favored by Zhang Zhao. He served as the prince Taifu in Soochow, and taught and assisted Sun Deng, the prince of Soochow.Sun Deng can be said to be a very outstanding prince in the second generation of the Three Kingdoms, and he is deeply loved by the people and scholars of Soochow.

With the successful case of Sun Deng here, Liu Chan's first choice is basically Zhang Wen.

Zhang Wen was born in the Zhang family of Wu County, Jiangdong. He is a man of noble character, magnificent appearance, well-read scriptures, clear and clear, and is a good example of a master.Let him be in charge of the prince's studies, Liu Chan has nothing to worry about!

Another point is that although Zhang Wen abandoned Wu and returned to Han, his credit and qualifications are not enough to convince the public.It is also not easy for Liu Chan to directly arrange high-ranking officials for him. It is most suitable for him to be the Taifu of the Eastern Palace. He has a high position but low power, and it is also suitable for a person like him who does not understand politics.

As for who Donggong is, let's talk about it!Anyway, I'm still young, and I don't have any legitimate sons now, and the children are also young.

Liu Chan raised tea to respect Zhang Wen, and said: "Zhang Qing, since I have entrusted the prince to you, I will not say much. It's just that the prince is still young, and the usual teachings don't have to be too harsh, too much will make him tired of learning."

Zhang Wen returned the gift with tea, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry. Others teach books. I search for chapters and ask questions. I don't know why the ancients wrote books. I know why I don't know why. I'm a rigid professor. I teach books and teach them in my own way. Please Your Majesty." rest assured."

Liu Chan smiled in amazement, indeed!
The ancestor of the Zhang family in Wujun was Zhang Liang, the marquis of Liu, who has been going on for hundreds of years, and generations of heroes have emerged in large numbers.Among the Zhang clan, it is impossible to do it without good teaching methods. It really deserves to be the queen of Liuhou.

"So I'm relieved." Liu Chan said reassuringly.

Liu Chan turned his attention to Liao Li again, sized him up a few times, and said with a smile, "A year ago, when Gong Yuan went to Dong Wu as an envoy, did the trip go well? The King of Wu made things difficult for me."

Liao Li caressed his beard and said, "The envoy to Soochow went very smoothly, and nothing happened. It's just that after King Wu proclaimed himself emperor, he was full of ambition and arrogance. Lord Wu wanted Zhuge Zhi and Wei Wen to lead all People crossed the sea to Yizhou, and moved the people of Yizhou to enrich the population of Eastern Wu. Quanzi Huang (Quan Cong) and Lu Boyan persuaded Lord Wu, but Lord Wu refused."

Liu Chan was quite interested, holding the wine bottle, and asked, "Oh! Is there anything else?"

Zhang Wen obviously knew more, so he added: "Master Wu also wants to send school lieutenants Zhang Gang and Guan Du to Liaodong to communicate with the Gongsun family, and to join forces with the Gongsun family to attack Wei from north to south."

Liu Chan couldn't help shaking his head again and again, only feeling that Sun Quan was called the emperor, and his head was dazzled.

Liu Chan thought about it and asked, "Gongyuan and Huishu, what do you two think of Master Wu's actions?"

Zhang Wen stroked his beard slightly, thought a little, and replied: "Yizhou (Taiwan) is thousands of miles away from Soochow Wu. This place is uncivilized. The barbarians are like wild beasts. It is difficult to plunder the people here. Besides, the migration of the barbarians will definitely lead to the spread of diseases." .It may not be worth the loss to take the trouble to go on an expedition and trek through the barren land!"

Liu Chan nodded, sighed and said: "Master Wu's profit makes his mind faint. Dongwu has Jiao, Yang, and Jing prefectures. The people in the three prefectures of Jiao, Yang, and Jing are rich in land and resources. The population of the people is far greater than that of our big man. It is enough to use troops against Cao Wei! Why do you need to go across the ocean and kill thousands of people? Obtain small profits. Sun Diuni (Sun Ce) made great achievements with five hundred soldiers, and Wu Lord is not as good as him."

"My great Han has defeated Cao Wei year after year. This is an opportunity for Wu to recuperate. Lord Wu didn't take advantage of this time to refine his soldiers to strengthen his country, lower taxes to appease the people, but he did such an unwise move. It's a pity!" Liu Chan Said with emotion.

Liu Chan had no objection to Sun Quan taking Yizhou, but felt that it was too risky for Sun Quan to easily send tens of thousands of soldiers to Taiwan without investigating clearly.

You must know that the sea is ruthless. Once such a large fleet encounters a storm, the ship will be destroyed and people will die.Moreover, Taiwan is now more barren than Nanzhong. It is a fool's dream to want to develop it!

If you want to relocate, you can just send a small group of troops to Taiwan.It's like coveting the power of the barbarians in Nanzhong, isn't it just to let the three guards take turns to catch the barbarians?This is the plague of the times, and infectious diseases are no joke.

In this way, Liu Chan chatted with Zhang Wen about Yizhou without saying a word.

After chatting for a while, Liu Chan saw that Liao Li was silent, glanced at him, and asked, "Gongyuan is silent, it's not your character!"

Liao Li returned to his senses, cupped his hands and said: "I am thinking about the matter of the alliance between Lord Wu's envoy and the Gongsun family in Liaodong."

"Oh! I don't know what Gongyuan thinks?" Liu Chan asked.

Liao Li pondered for a while, and said: "I think Lord Wu will join forces with the Gongsun clan to attack Wei, but maybe Lord Wu will be used by the Gongsun clan instead."

Liu Chan looked at Liao Li and asked curiously, "Why did you say that?"

Liao Li Fuxu replied: "The Gongsun family of Liaodong has lived in the northeast corner for a long time. After Gongsun Yuan ascended the throne, he surrendered to Cao Wei. How can Gongsun Yuan not be afraid of Cao Wei, whose national power is strong and adjacent to the country?"

"The Lord of Wu sent people to the north, which may make Gongsun Yuan use Dong Wu as a chess game, make Cao Wei guard against Dong Wu, thus relax the military in the Northeast, and make Gongsun Yuan himself the king of Liaodong. However, the connection between Wu and Liaodong is thousands of miles away. Comparable to Cao Wei?"

"Cao Wei Ke threatened Gongsun Yuan to cut off contact with the state of Wu, why would Gongsun Yuan not dare to obey, then maybe Lord Wu's gains outweigh the losses!"

Hearing the words, Liu Chan nodded in agreement, and said: "Your words are exactly what I want. Lord Wu is burdened by the false name of the emperor, and he has already done unwise things."

According to the history of later generations, Sun Quan was finally deceived by the Gongsun family.In the end, the foolish Sun Quan ordered Taichang Zhang Mi, Jinwu Xu Yan, and General He Da to lead 10,000 people and horses, carry gold treasures, nine tins, and cross the sea to award Gongsun Yuan.

Then he was killed by Gongsun Yuan, and his head was dedicated to Cao Wei. The fat meat of 10,000 people horses was also swallowed by Gongsun Yuan.

It can be said that going to the Gongsun family in the north and crossing Yizhou in the east is the second biggest trick after Sun Quan proclaimed himself emperor. He lost 20,000 people's horses and a large amount of grain and grass. Soochow's flesh hurts!

Liao Li glanced at His Majesty, and couldn't help admiring the young emperor even more. Not to mention the ability of the emperor, if he can not be burdened by false fame, he is better than the monarch of the world.A few years ago, he was not afraid of people's words, and gave him the throne as a gift, which shows his wisdom!

Liu Chan sipped his tea, secretly lamenting Liao Li's accuracy in understanding the situation.

Liu Chan put down the teacup and thought of one thing, maybe Liao Li could do it.

"Liao Qing, this mission to Soochow does not disgrace the prestige of the great Han country. Now I want you to take on another important task. I don't know if you are willing to accept it?" Liu Chan asked with a smile.

Liao Li smiled softly, stroked his beard and said, "I am willing to accept the order, what is it? Is it something about Jiangdong?"

Liu Chan shook his head and said, "It's not Jiangdong, but Wei."

Hearing this, Liao Li was startled, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground, smashed to the ground, and hurriedly asked: "Does Your Majesty want to kill the minister?"

When Lao Liu was alive, he sent an envoy to Cao Pi, but he never saw him, and was killed by Cao Pi directly.

Now that he has just defeated Cao Wei and seized Cao Wei's Longyou, His Majesty even forcibly snatched the daughter of the clan as a concubine. If he appeared in Wei's country, Cao Rui would not kill himself.

Liu Chan helped Liao Li up, and comforted him, saying, "Jia Si leads [-] troops back to Han, and the general's family is in Wei. A few years ago, the Han rebel generals Yao Jing and Zheng Ta also led [-] Han troops to Wei, and the general's family was in Wei. , and now I want Liao Qing to exchange the family members of the generals of the two sides."

Liao Li wiped the cold sweat off his brow, cupped his hands and said, "If this is the case, I am willing to take orders and live up to His Majesty's trust."

Liu Chan smiled and brought the new teacup to Liao Li, and said: "Everything must be done with your life in mind. If you can't do it, you can't force it. You don't have to risk your life by going to Wei. You can write to Cao Wei first. Sima Caozhen discussed this matter."

Liao Li quickly took the teacup and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will act carefully and seek a perfect solution."

It can't be blamed on Liu Chan's extravagance. After all, if the family members of more than [-] surrendered generals can be replaced, they can also work for the big man with more peace of mind.However, Liao Li's safety must be the top priority. After all, great talent is rare, and it cannot be simply measured by population and property.
