Chapter 524 award
Chang’an is impossible. Now Chang’an is also suffering from famine, and the guardian of Chang’an is the younger brother of the King of the East Sea, the King of Nanyang.
Changan is too close to Xianbei.
As for Chen County, the emperor glanced at Zhao Hanzhang.
Compared with Zhao Hanzhang, he believed in Gou Xi more.
Gou Xi was a minister worthy of his two secret edicts. Although the two exchanged letters, the emperor admired his conduct and trusted his abilities;
And Zhao Hanzhang, although he heard a lot of her deeds, the emperor didn’t believe her very much, especially this time she was cruel to Wang Mi. One moment she was an ally, and the next moment she said she would kill without batting an eye.
So the emperor still chose Gou Xi, and naturally he chose Yuncheng.
The emperor insisted, but the courtiers below were divided into two parts. Some supported the emperor to go to Yuncheng, some proposed to go to Chen County, and some suggested to stay in Luoyang.
“Moving the capital is a major event for the country. Luoyang is surrounded by natural dangers. Although it is now dilapidated and depressed, as long as Your Majesty is attentive and acts benevolent, the minister will surely have the people to vote, and then the prosperity will be restored.”
Surprisingly, this was Fu Zheng’s proposal.
Zhao Hanzhang glanced at the opposite Fu Zhen, and immediately said to the emperor: “Your Majesty, rebuilding Luoyang costs a lot, and although Liu Cong has receded, the Huns are still too close to Luoyang, and Xianbei sometimes crosses Chang’an to the south, and then lives in Luoyang. All right.”
Xiahouyan immediately followed, “Your Majesty, this minister also thinks that Luoyang is better to rebuild, or move the capital to Chang’an, or move the capital to Chen County.”
Gou Xi and Gou Chun both looked at Zhao Hanzhang opposite him suspiciously, with deep eyes, suspecting that she was willing to refuse and welcome, and pretended to decline.
Zhao Hanzhang saw their eyes, secretly spit out blood, and simply ignored it, “If Your Majesty wishes to go to Chen County, the minister will accompany him to protect him, but it’s not good to stay in Luoyang.”
The emperor also didn’t want to stay in Luoyang. Whether it was after or before the enthronement, Luoyang left him with a bad memory.
So he said directly: “You don’t need to persuade you, I have to move the capital. It was because of many hesitations that the difficulty in Luoyang came about.”
He asked Fu Zhi suspiciously, “Fu Aiqing, you came to advocate moving the capital, why did you change it now?”
Fu Zhi said: “At this time, at this time, at this time, Your Majesty stayed in Luoyang, and it was of great use to the country and the people, and it was a great good.”
“Yes,” Xia Houyan glanced at Zhao Hanzhang and Gou Xi, and said meaningfully: “Staying in Luoyang, with the support of General Zhao and General Gou, I think Luoyang will soon be able to recover.”
Xiahouyan all hinted at this for the sake of it, but the emperor was frightened by the Xiongnu, and this time Liu Cong and Wang Mi attacked, only one door away from him.
He was ready to be killed and captured, so he said nothing to stay in Luoyang.
Seeing this, Xia Houyan sighed, glanced at Fu Zhi and stopped mentioning it. He was just a small scholar, different from Fu Zhi, so he only made suggestions. The emperor didn’t listen to him, so he felt sorry for it. It is the day that Jin will die.
But Fu Zhi is different.
Seeing that Fu Zheng’s temples are like frost, he will have to worry about it in the future.
Taking another look at Fu Tinghan sitting beside Zhao Hanzhang, Xia Houyan shook his head, sighed, raised his glass and gestured to Fu Zhi, and without waiting for him to respond, he drank the wine in his glass by himself.
He dropped the wine glass and stopped talking, but Fu Zheng couldn’t help but say that he still insisted on staying in Luoyang or going to Chang’an.
“The king of Nanyang can be mediocre, and it is difficult to defend Chang’an, and Chang’an, like Luoyang, is the barrier of the Central Plains. Your Majesty is the monarch and should be the gatekeeper of the country.” He added: “Also, Chang’an is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Central Plains are the backing, and there is General Zhao. With General He Gou here, Your Majesty can take care of you.”
The emperor frowned and glanced at Fu Tinghan next to Zhao Hanzhang, slightly dissatisfied, “Fu Zhongshu clearly wanted to move the capital to Yanzhou before, why did it change again?”
Because of this short half-day, Fu Zheng realized that Gou Xi was no longer the upright minister of the past, but in front of Gou Xi and Bai Guan, he couldn’t say these words.
Fu Zheng lowered his eyes and did not speak.
Zhao Hanzhang picked up the jug and poured himself a glass of wine, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Fu Tinghan glanced at her and said to the emperor, “Your Majesty, the matter of moving the capital is very important, and it still needs to be discussed with the officials. Decisions cannot be made at once. For today’s banquet, it is better to ignore this matter.”
Zhao Zhongyu immediately said: “Yes, today’s palace banquet is to celebrate the relief of Luoyang’s crisis. It’s such a good day, why mention these troubles?”
The solemnity on the emperor’s face disappeared for a while, and he smiled again, “Yes, today we only drink and talk about happy events, regardless of these troubles.”
Empress Liang smiled and said, “Since this is the case, it is better for Your Majesty to take this opportunity to reward General Zhao.”
She said: “This time General Zhao solved the danger in Luoyang, and he did a great job in saving him, so he should be rewarded.”
The emperor was also in a hurry to leave Luoyang, thinking of finishing these matters as soon as possible, and immediately asked, “What kind of reward does General Zhao want?”
Zhao Hanzhang said politely: “This is the duty of a small minister, and I dare not ask for a reward, but there are a few generals under the minister. Thanks to them, the Huns can be expelled, so please reward them.”
This was also a tacit understanding, and the emperor asked, “I don’t know what kind of credit General Zhao wants to give them.”
Zhao Hanzhang immediately took out the written book, and the waiter took it and delivered it.
The emperor opened it up and saw that the book was not short, but it was obviously quite long. He read it carefully and found that even the credits of the ordinary team leaders were written.
It seems that Zhao Hanzhang wants to apply credit for his subordinates, so it is not something that can be decided immediately at the palace banquet.
The emperor accepted the book and said: “I know, I will consider it carefully.”
Zhao Hanzhang raised his lips lightly, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
“This is their credit, but General Zhao’s credit is still above them, don’t you want nothing?”
Zhao Hanzhang hesitated for a moment and then said: “Your Majesty, this minister is nostalgic, Yuzhou is the hometown of the minister, and all the family members are in Yuzhou, so the minister only hopes that the people of Yuzhou can live and work in peace and contentment under the governance of the minister, and be loyal to the monarch and patriotism.”
Zhao Hanzhang wanted Yuzhou, and Fu Zhen and Zhao Zhongyu had told him earlier that asking this today was just to cross the bright road.
The emperor was also straightforward, and immediately said: “I ordered Zhao Hezhen to be the prefect of Yuzhou, and named Runan County Duke! Zhao Qing, I entrusted this Yuzhou to you, and you must take good care of it.”
Zhao Hanzhang immediately got up and stepped out, knelt down at the foot of the hall, and thanked him: “My minister, I will live up to Your Majesty’s expectations!”
Zhao Hanzhang was respectful, the emperor was happy, and immediately gave him a drink. He smiled and said, “If you and I are talking about relatives, you have to call me cousin.”
Seeing Fu Tinghan sitting by the wrong eye, the emperor smiled even more and said happily: “But if you count it from Tinghan, you are going to call me uncle grandfather.”
Fu Zhi immediately said: “The relationship between relatives should be discussed from a close distance, and there is no way to discuss it from a distance. If it is discussed from the Emperor Jing, it is too far away, and it should be discussed from the princess.”
Fu Changrong’s mother, Princess Hongnong, is the daughter of Emperor Hui, and Emperor Hui and Jin are brothers. The princess mainly calls the emperor uncle, and Fu Tinghan calls him… uncle.
Zhao Hanzhang doesn’t mind being short-lived, but he does mind that one short is two generations short, but starting from Zhao Changyu’s generation, the two sides are not only farther apart, but also have no blood relationship. She laughed, raised her glass and called the emperor, “Uncle grandfather.”
