Thousand-year-old family: its rise began with Shang Yang’s reforms

Chapter 233 The Movie King Liu Bang [Please vote, please subscribe]

What is the most important thing as an emperor?
He is able to be high and mighty and domineering, but at the same time, he is able to put aside his so-called pride at certain times and be willing to do something.

Such as Liu Bang.

Liu Bang is like a born emperor. When he encounters danger, he can kick his children off the carriage just to save his own life; when he encounters difficulties, he can ask Han Xin to rescue him regardless of previous conflicts; He could say "please give me a piece of the pie" when Xiang Yu said he wanted to cook his father.

Such a person cannot become a good person.

But he will definitely become a good emperor because he has no flaws.

With such a character, and such scheming and ability, how could Liu Bang not become emperor and create a brand new dynasty?
For the head of Guizhou in the world, such an emperor would indeed be much better and easier to accept than the First Emperor.

Chen didn't care much about who became the emperor now, as long as the head of Guizhou in the world could live a stable life, so even if he guessed Liu Bang's intention, Chen Ju didn't say anything.

Liu Bang stood up tentatively, looked at Chen Ju and said softly: "Although Prime Minister Chen is idle at home now, his style remains the same."

There was a strong sense of regret in his voice: "It's just that I was never able to work with Prime Minister Chen and help the Qin Dynasty together. This is the regret of Bang's life."

He heard the meaning of Liu Bang's words, but he did not refute: "Whether it is the First Emperor or the Emperor Wen, or the original Emperor Gaozu, Zhaoxiang, and Huiwen, the people all need to be obedient and obedient. .”

"Sir, I just said that if a certain dynasty in the future does not need to enforce the law so strictly"

"So, after much hesitation, Bang finally accepted His Majesty Ziying's appointment as the governor of Pei County."

"Bang actually has no desire to dominate the world, nor does he have any thoughts about that supreme position. He just thinks that life in the head of Guizhou in this world is too difficult."

He looked at Liu Bang with a smile: "Is it because Qin has the Chen family?"

Even though Liu Bang had already guessed this before coming, he still came because he wanted to hear Chen Ju say these words himself.

"Chen can only play the role of "icing on the cake", but cannot play the role of "helping others in times of need."

Liu Bang turned around and looked at Chen Ju: "But after the people's wisdom is enlightened, the leaders of Guizhou will yearn for a better life, won't they? Under the current Great Qin, life in the leaders of Guizhou is not very friendly."

His voice was full of emotion: "These are all Chen's efforts!"

"Of course--"

The expression on Chen Ju's face remained unchanged, still so peaceful: "The destruction of a dynasty is a normal thing. Shang destroyed Xia, Zhou destroyed Shang, Qin destroyed Zhou, and unified the six countries. This is the cycle of heaven. Number, no changes.”

A gust of wind blew gently over, and the two of them talked a lot of nonsense in circles, but none of them touched on the real purpose of Liu Bang's visit.

When Liu Bang heard Chen Ju's words, he breathed a sigh of relief. This was the question he wanted to ask, and this conversation finally made him feel relieved.

"Since Qin can destroy Zhou and replace it, why can't Qin be destroyed?"

"This is also what the ancestors of the Chen family wanted to see."

"As long as Mrs. Chen is here, the world will be safe and sound."

"Chen's efforts over the years are here."

Chen Ju's voice was a little indifferent and cold: "But the Chen family does not belong to the Qin State. In other words, the Chen family once belonged to the Qin State, but now it no longer belongs to the Qin State."

Chen wouldn't care.

He even talked about the Qin Law: "Although the Qin Law has not continued to be as harsh as it was at the beginning under the revisions of the Chen family, the current Qin Law has made the leaders of Guizhou fear and fear. Sometimes the execution of the law does not require Too strict.”

Liu Bang was a little anxious
He coughed lightly and continued the topic along with Chen Ju's words. Liu Bang found that even if he shamelessly wanted Chen Ju to ask questions first, Chen Ju could do Tai Chi and continue to talk to him, even if he kept saying that he still had something to do. Things to deal with.

Chen Juze laughed: "This is decided by those in power, not by Chen."

"This naturally includes Pei Gong."

Chen Ju shook his head slightly and smiled: "The Chen family is not that powerful and cannot influence the destruction and establishment of a dynasty."

He sighed and looked at the sky, as if the sky contained the answer he wanted.

"If a certain dynasty in the future does not need such strict laws, it can make its own laws."

"Actually, before Bang came, His Majesty once gave Bang a choice."

"So the enforcement of Qin's laws is strict."

He looked at Liu Bang and did not continue to talk in circles at this time. He just said: "So, no matter whether there is another person competing for the world in the world, I don't care, and Chen doesn't care either."

Chen Ju said softly: "Why is Pei Gong here so important? Let's just tell him."

Liu Bang did not follow Chen Ju's words and said the purpose of his visit. He just smiled and praised Chen's efforts: "Chen's hard work over the years, Bang felt it when he entered Guandu. The world is in chaos, and the rest of the world is full of chaos." It’s a good thing that the Guizhou chiefs can survive, but the Guizhou chiefs in Guandu don’t seem to feel the turmoil.”

Liu Bang squinted his eyes and spoke out the choice Ziying gave him. His voice was low and powerful: "But Bang didn't know what Mr. Wang was thinking, so he never dared to agree. Now that Mr. Liu said this, Bang felt relieved. ”

"Bang is not just for himself, he just wants to work hard to end the troubled times for the sake of Guizhou."

Chen Ju poured the tea gently, and a little boiling water mist rose up. He had a slightly indifferent look on his face: "What Chen Ju has done for the world's leading Guizhou people is not as much as what the world's leading Guizhou people have done for Chen."

"When a dynasty is disgusted by the world, the Chen family will comply with the people's choice."

"Creating people's wisdom is a major event, and Mr. Chen has to do it, and he has no choice but to do it."

He turned his head and looked at the calm and turbulent lake: "After talking to Pei Gong, I have to go back to school for some matters."

"Don't you, sir, care about the fall of Qin?"

He said calmly: "I have resigned and returned to my hometown. I am no longer the right prime minister of the Qin Dynasty. How can Pei Gong still call me Chen Prime Minister?"

"The Chen family belongs to the leader of the world and everyone who lives among the Hua and Xia."

Chen Juze said nonchalantly: "Pei Gong called you by mistake."

"Join this game of chaos at the end of the dynasty."

When Liu Bang talked about the emotional part, some tears even fell from the corners of his eyes. His eyes were full of sadness, like a real person who made sacrifices for Guizhou.

He turned his head and looked at Chen Ju: "It's just that I never knew what Mr. was thinking——"

"I just learned today that my husband and I are the same heads of Guizhou Province. I really hate meeting you so late. I wish I could sleep with you and talk about the affairs of the world together!"

Liu Bang looked excited, like Yu Boya seeing Zhong Ziqi, but more like a dog that had been hungry for more than ten years seeing a fragrant meat bun. Chen Ju's expression remained unchanged: "It turns out that Pei Gong still has such a big heart."

"It's just a shame."

He said calmly: "Ju has been in love with the mountains and rivers for many years, and he has gained the samadhi of his ancestors' scholarship, so he only wants to concentrate on his studies, and is unwilling to get involved in the so-called general trend of the world. It is too tiring to fight for the world. "

Chen Ju smiled: "And most of the people in my Chen family don't have the mental energy to compete for the world."

"Otherwise, you can talk to Pei Gong at that time."

When Liu Bang heard Chen Ju, who could only say "Stop acting", he didn't look embarrassed at all. He was still sighing, but he stopped choking and crying: "Chen's love for landscapes is a great way." Ah! How can we, a wretched villain like us, be able to compare?"

"We are just human beings, while Mr. Chen and members of the Chen family have already reached immortality."

He asked tentatively: "It's just that I don't know if it's because Mr. Chen is too attached to the mountains and rivers and doesn't want to get involved in the troubled times, or because Mr. Chen is unwilling to get involved in the court from now on?"

Chen Ju watched as Liu Bang lowered his head and picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Chen doesn't want to get involved in this troubled time for hegemony. She wants the world's leaders to choose the most suitable monarch. Chen also needs to observe."

"If in the future the world is prosperous and unified, and all the people are stable, and if the descendants of the Chen family want to go out and serve as officials in the court, what can I, an old man who is still around, be able to control?"

"It's all nothing but fiction."

Only then did Liu Bang feel relieved: "That's it."

He stood up, with a calm and helpless look on his face: "I benefited a lot from talking to Mr. today. If Mr. had not had other important matters to deal with, Bang would definitely have to live in Chen's for a while."

Even at this last sentence, Liu Bang was testing Chen Ju.

Chen Ju just smiled: "It's very pleasant to talk with Pei Gong in detail, but there is indeed something important going on, and Pei Gong should rush to Pei County to take up his post, right?"

"I won't keep Pei Gong any longer in Juben."

Liu Bang then said with some regret: "Then Bang took his leave."

After Liu Bang left completely, Chen Jucai looked at Liu Bang's back with a thoughtful look on his face: "This boy must not be an ordinary person."

"Maybe Qin will really end up in his hands, maybe?"

He can hold it up, he can put it down, he can act, and he will not be embarrassed after being seen through, but can walk down the steps without changing his expression.

If such people are not successful, who can be successful?
In August of the first year of Wu Lie.

The fifth emperor Ziying combined ten counties into counties, with Pei County as the center, and finally became "Pei County", and made Peigong Liu Bang the county governor of Pei County.

Since then, there has been one more "prince" in the world.

While people were observing what kind of person this prince was, he had quietly returned to Pei County day and night.

At this time, Peixian County had become the county seat of Pei County, so it naturally needed more repairs.

The first person to invest was Liu Bang's father-in-law's family.

The Lu family used tens of millions of their property to fund Liu Bang's expansion of the city of Pei County, and Liu Bang reciprocated the favor by appointing several descendants of the Lu family as officials in Pei County.

When Liu Bang settled down in Peijun, the first person he went to find was "Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Chen Ping" who lived in seclusion in Peijun. Even though these three people, Xiao Cao and Chen, were At the end of Qin and the beginning of Han Dynasty, when there were many talents, he was regarded as one of the top talents.

The three of them even served as prime ministers of the Han Dynasty.

Xiao He himself was even one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty in the original history. Such a character is not so easy to see.

After all, the three of them have resigned and returned home.

But none of this could stop Liu Bang. Liu Bang went to the place where the three lived several times, but was rejected. However, the newly appointed governor, Pei Gong of Da Qin, did not care at all, and even had free time to chat with the three. The neighbors laughed and talked happily.

His expression remained unchanged for several days.

On the ninth day, the three of them finally couldn't keep Liu Bang out because they really couldn't stand them studying in the house while Liu Bang, the county governor, was chatting with people outside like a ruffian. Hey, he has no pride at all as a county guard or a lord.

indoor
Xiao He and the others had dark faces and looked at Liu Bang, who was carefree in front of them. He didn't look like a county guard at all, but more like a ruffian: "I wonder why Mr. Pei came here?"

"If there is nothing important, Pei Gong can leave."

"After all, I just became the county governor. There must be a lot of affairs in Pei County, right?"

Liu Bang was not frightened by Xiao He's sarcastic remarks. Instead, he felt that he had made a huge progress just by entering the room where Xiao He and others lived.

He immediately said, "What did you say, sir?"

He said confidently: "Isn't it important to come to the gentlemen? In Bang's heart, the three gentlemen are more important than the entire Pei County!"

Liu Bang's voice was very sincere: "Bang had no talent in governing counties. He just stole a ray of luck from God and suppressed the uprising of Chen Sheng and others, so he was able to stand where he is now."

He looked at Xiao He and the others: "Are we going to let people like Bang govern Pei County?"

"Wouldn't that mean that all the people in Pei County would be homeless?"

Liu Bang had tears in his eyes: "This is the hometown of the three gentlemen and Bang. Bang really can't bear to let this place become what he wants."

He stepped forward suddenly and held Xiao He's hands regardless of Xiao He's struggle and objection. His eyes were full of sincerity: "Sir, please come out and help me!"

"If I don't have my husband to help me, Bang really can't do anything!"

Liu Bang madly gave Xiao He a high hat: "Sir, he resigned for the sake of the world's leader of Guizhou. Now, can't he come out again for the sake of the world's leader of Guizhou?"

"Don't you, sir, not want to see the lives of the chiefs of Pei County restored to the peace and stability of the past?"

"Does it mean that Sir hates Bang so much?"

As he spoke, tears fell from the corners of Liu Bang's eyes again.

"Even if you don't care about Zaibang's face, I would like to ask these three gentlemen to think about Zaibang's face."

"Please help me, sir!"
