Wei and Jin cooks

"No, Zhao Hanzhang is very polite." Liu Yi paused, but couldn't help but say what was in his heart, "Father, I think she is a very talented and virtuous person. She can lead by example in fighting, and she can show compassion for the people in politics. , to fight her, I’m afraid it will take twice as many troops to win, and the place won will be difficult to govern.”

Liu Yidao: "The book says that for such a person, it is better to respect her and convince her than to suppress her."

Liu Yuan sighed and said: "As a father, I don't know. However, I am old and she is too young. If in a few years, we can be officials in the same court, maybe we can give it a try, but now... this is yours." It’s time.”

Liu Yi immediately said: "My father is in his prime, why do you say such sad words?"

Liu Yuan shook his head and said: "I am old, and this winter has been particularly difficult. When the weather gets cold, I feel the chill in my bones. It will take two months for the weather to get warmer. I don't know if I can wait until that day. I just made it through this winter, but I don’t know if I can make it through next winter.”

Old man, summer and winter are the most difficult to endure, especially winter. For Liu Yuan, this year is really cold.

Liu Yi had a deep relationship with his father. Hearing this, his eyes turned red and he became sad, "Father..."

Liu Yuan reached out to hold his hand, patted it and said: "Xiao Qi, among your brothers, you are the smartest and the most kind. In the future, you will be the wise king of our country of Han. I will assist your eldest brother and take good care of you." Mother……"

As he spoke, Liu Yuan's eyes showed a little sadness. In fact, Liu Yi was his most satisfactory heir. Unfortunately, he was too innocent and young. If he was more ruthless, or if he was in better health, he would be able to do more. Give him a few years to grow up, and it would be best if the country of Han is left in his hands.

But Liu Yuan already felt that his health was getting worse day by day, and Liu Yi was still young and could not grow stronger after a year and a half. In order to prevent the Han Dynasty from being chaotic, he could only suppress this idea in his heart.

Thinking of Prince Liu He, Liu Yuan's heart froze. He twitched the corner of his mouth stiffly and said, "Your eldest brother has a soft ear. You should pay more attention in the future. Don't let traitors get close to him, and give him more advice."

Liu Yi nodded repeatedly.

Liu Yuan: "Your fourth brother has great martial arts skills and great prestige in the army, but he is not as big-hearted as you. If you brothers have conflicts in the future, remember to be careful and don't conflict with him in person. If you have anything to say, let the ministers in the court convey it to you." , there is also a place for change.”

Liu Yi nodded fiercely.

Liu Yuan then warned: "If there is a misunderstanding between your eldest brother and your fourth brother, remember to mediate from the side and never start a war."

"Although Shi Le is ambitious, he values ​​friendship. Your eldest brother is the prince I have chosen. As long as he succeeds to the throne, Shi Le will not embarrass him even if he doesn't listen to his words. It would be different if it were someone else." He He sighed and said: "The five generals and your fourth brother all look down on Shi Le, but from my point of view, they are not as good as Shi Le in terms of martial arts or governing the people. If Gou Xi hadn't scattered his troops back then, he would have been You will never come to seek refuge with me."

"Although he was born a slave, he attaches great importance to credibility, so as long as our Han country is not in chaos, he will have no excuse to leave the Han country. In this regard, he is very similar to Zhao Hanzhang," Liu Yuan said earnestly: "So for You should respect him more, and you should also respect your elder brother."

Liu Yi agreed, he hesitated, and then asked: "Father, can I be friends with Zhao Hanzhang?"

Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Of course. If you can get her to treat you sincerely, even if my father is dead now, I will feel more at ease."

If one day the Xiongnu Liu family really reaches the end of their rope, with Liu Yi's friendship, they may be able to find a glimmer of hope with Zhao Hanzhang.

With his father's approval, Liu Yi became bold and started running to his uncle Shan Jin to ask for grass seeds the next day.

Shan Jin asked the servant to prepare, and asked curiously, "I just leave this kind of matter to the servants, why do I need you to ask in person?"

Liu Yi didn't wait for an answer and asked again, "Have you got a new pasture? Can someone see if it's suitable for planting? Don't be like your brothers and use good farmland for grazing. It's a waste of nature."

Liu Yi said with a simple smile: "I don't want to grow pasture, this is for a friend of mine. She wants to build a new pasture. I have visited it. Most of the land is dry land, but there are also water sources. The terrain is flat. As soon as spring starts, sow the grass." Grass seeds can survive a couple of spring rains, and fertile fields are set aside for planting instead of grazing."

Shan Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and then complained to Liu Yi: "Two days ago, the Tuoba tribe sent troops to enclose more than 300 acres of our land in Hexi. There is wheat in the land, but it has not turned green yet. Listen to them What I mean is to round up the herding horses and wait until the snow melts and the wheat turns green to start grazing. I want to tell His Majesty, but you are in the hands of Zhao Jiajun. General Tuoba doesn’t want to negotiate with you to redeem you, so I will keep I didn’t dare to speak. Now that you are back, help me intercede with His Majesty and ask him to mediate and let the Tuoba tribe return the land to us."

"There are still people. They enclosed the land and took away our people. Thirty-eight households, nearly a hundred people. They are all good at farming. They were captured by the Tuoba tribe and used as cattle slaves. They are overqualified and underqualified."

Liu Yi pursed his lips when he heard this and agreed.

But he did not go to Liu Yuan, but went to General Tuoba himself.

Although General Tuoba was very unhappy, he still returned the land and people to the Di people.

He looked down on Shan Jin and didn't even take Empress Shan seriously, but he couldn't help but take Liu Yi seriously. Among Liu Yuan's sons, he was the most favored, even the prince could not compare with him.

Now the prince has a strong enemy like Liu Cong, and he doesn't want to add another opponent like Liu Yi.

General Tuoba could also see that although Liu Yi was favored and smart, he was stupid at reading and had no intention of fighting for power.

He didn't want to inspire Liu Yi's idea.

Liu Yi came back for two days and helped his uncle get back the land and people who had been trapped. He also collected two carts of high-quality grass seeds. On the third day, he personally took people to deliver to Zhao Jiajun to Zhao Hanzhang.

As soon as he left the city gate, the palace guards immediately surrounded him with people.

After finally getting the person back, how could Liu Yuan let Liu Yi go to the Zhao Jiajun camp again?

Even if he said that Zhao Hanzhang did not restrict his freedom and was very kind to him during those four days, Liu Yuan could not agree to let him go again.

If you want to make friends, you can write letters or send people to deliver things, but you can't go there in person.

Liu Yi had no choice but to stop at the city gate, and finally asked his guards to send them off. He watched the team go away at the city gate with a sad look on his face.

Although he had only returned to the city for two days, he suddenly missed Zhao Hanzhang.

He felt that many people here could not understand his ideas, not even his uncle. He did not agree with the Huns' five tribes of enclosing land for grazing, but he also did not agree with his uncle's contempt for the Huns.

The Huns look down on the Di people, and the Di people despise the Huns' actions, but he is both a Huns and a Di people, so why can't the two tribes respect each other?

There are also Han people, Xianbei people, Qiang people, and Jie people. Wouldn’t it be nice to treat them all equally?
