Liu Biao knew what a knife was and what hemp was, but he didn't know what a sharp knife meant to cut through the mess.

His expression was a little unhappy: "If you have any ideas, just tell me directly to my father. Why bother talking about things I can't understand... to show off your knowledge to my father?"

"Hey, since I am the emperor, I will naturally have to behave like a king when I speak from now on. If every word I say is casually understood by others, how can I show my brilliance?"

Liu Biao stopped talking and stretched out his hand to pull Liu Qi's ears, and then greeted him with fists and kicks.

After working as a volunteer teacher in Yizhou for several years, the old man's temper became a little bad. Maybe it was because he was addicted to corporal punishment of students. His gestures and gestures were a bit more aggressive, and he would greet students whenever they disagreed with him.

…

After a while, Liu Biao let out a long sigh of satisfaction, sat down and poured a cup of tea by himself, then raised his head and drank it all.

“Comfortable!”

Liu Qi's ears were red, and his face and neck were also somewhat red and swollen.

He poured himself a cup of tea, but before drinking it, he stained some with his hands and smeared it on his cheeks.

"The so-called sharp knife cuts through the mess, which means that in times of chaos, everything is like a ball of twine, and it is difficult to sort it out with your hands. Just use a sharp knife to cut it, break it and then stand up, and make a decision with one knife."

Liu Biao raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean, your current situation is like a mess?"

Liu Qi looked at Liu Biao seriously: "If the child's current situation was not a mess, why would my father be waiting here in the middle of the night, waiting for me, anxious to ask?"

Liu Biao poured himself a cup of tea and nodded while drinking it, but then he seemed to realize something.

"You know your father is worried about you, why are you still perfunctory here?"

After that, there were a few more loving touches.

Liu Qi straightened up with a smile and said: "When a child first takes power, this rule must be established. Before dealing with foreign affairs, one must first settle the domestic affairs. Once the tone of many things is set, if it is changed in the future, I am afraid it will be very serious.

It will not be easy, especially since Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have established a new emperor, and they are eyeing the Northeast, so I need to use the fastest speed to solve the two most fundamental issues in the court."

"What two big things?"

"The employment system, as well as tax policy... all follow Jingzhou's system."

Liu Biao took a deep breath: "Is it too hasty? The tax politics in Jingzhou are driven by right-wing elements, but this employment system may not be tolerated by the scholars..."

"Money and employment, these are the primary foundations for the imperial court to establish its foothold in the world! The money bag is maintained, and the official system is all appointed by the imperial center through examinations, plus the army and food! As long as these four fundamentals are in the hands of the imperial court, the following

No matter how they make trouble or rebel, we can easily deal with them! But the rules must be established now. If you wait until later and want to change them, it will be difficult..."

"I'm afraid many people...especially the scholars in the North won't agree."

"So, I have to kill a few first to establish my authority." Liu Qi said decisively.

"kill?"

"That's right! Otherwise it won't be enough to establish authority. We have to start with people like Yang Biao."

Liu Biao couldn't help but fell silent after hearing this.

"I don't agree with you doing this. In everything, harmony is the most important thing. Only by slowly peeling off the cocoons and gradually making progress is the way of the king."

"My father's words may have been used in the prosperous times of the Qing Dynasty, but time is running out for me now. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have already supported the new king, who is as powerful as a tiger and a wolf. If I don't threaten the court quickly, and then send troops to the east, wait for them to regain their strength, and then come to plot against me, or

It is a tripartite force. From now on, the world will be attacked every year and every day. As time goes by, the vitality of the country will be completely exhausted... In this state, every step must be taken quickly, and there is no room for delay."

Liu Biao may not understand Liu Qi's point, but Liu Qi is very clear about how huge disasters will be caused to the dynasty if some things are delayed for a long time and become a tripartite trend.

The three pillars of Wei, Shu and Wu continued to conquer each other for nearly half a century. The huge population losses and economic decline caused by the southern and northern wars were unbearable for this country no matter what.

Liu Biao and Liu Qi talked for a long time, but in the end they still couldn't convince Liu Qi.

In the end, Liu Biao let out a long sigh, supported the desk, stood up and said: "That's all, it's up to you to decide all matters... Actually, think about it, over the years, you haven't thought about much.

wrong."

"Let go and do what you want to do. As a father, you should be the emperor in peace and enjoy peace and happiness."

Liu Qi stood up and said, "Thank you father for your strength."

"The body is the body, but it doesn't mean that I agree with your thoughts as a father... If you want to change your thoughts as a father, you still need to prove it to me."

Liu Qi smiled and said: "Don't worry, father, the child will do his best!"

"Go to rest early, my father will leave first."

After saying that, Liu Biao turned around and walked out of Liu Qi's palace.

At that moment, Liu Qi suddenly discovered that Liu Biao's back seemed to be more stooped than he remembered. His originally tall and straight body had gradually shrunk after the years.

The high-spirited member of the Eighth Route Army back then has now completely become an old man.

For some reason, Liu Qi suddenly felt a little blocked in his heart.

In this era, his mother is gone, and among the elders, he is the only one left with Liu Biao.

Liu Qi covered his head, walked to his dragon bed, and lay down on the bed in a large font.

For some reason, suddenly, he felt that this huge palace felt empty, and a strong sense of loneliness struck Liu Qi's heart.

He had never felt this kind of loneliness before.

Could it be that after becoming emperor, his mentality changed?

Liu Qi grinned bitterly and fell asleep in a daze without taking off his clothes or shoes.

…

When he woke up the next day, Liu Qi had finished washing himself under the service of a group of eunuchs. As soon as he walked out of the palace, Xu Chu hurriedly came to see him.

"Your Majesty, Tai Zhu ordered Liu Bei to come outside the palace and request an audience with Your Majesty."

Liu Qi stood on the high platform, holding his waist, with a smile on his face.

"The response was so fast, he came here the next day... Tell him that I have too many things to do during the day and don't have time, so I won't see you!"

"only!"

Xu Chu turned around without hesitation and hurried towards the corridor.

At this time, Liu Bei, with his two younger brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, stood at the exit of the corridor, waiting for Liu Qi's reply.

But after all, the palace was too big. The three Liu Bei brothers came in the morning, and it took them half an hour before they saw Xu Chu rushing over from the other end of the corridor.

Xu Chu first bowed his hand to Liu Bei, and then said Liu Qi's words exactly.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's expressions changed immediately and became ugly.

What does this new emperor mean?

You don't even see anyone, so you just drive us away?
