Emperor Ling said this, and Liu Yan had already considered it and thought of the answer.

"Therefore, I suggest that Your Majesty choose a famous person in the royal family and a famous and important minister in the court. The descendants of the royal family naturally care about the Han Dynasty, while the famous and important ministers of the Qing Dynasty do not love money, do not love power, have fame, and are dedicated to serving the court. Such people are suitable for being a state governor."

After Liu Yan said this, Emperor Ling thought about it and felt that it was correct.

The royal family is all from the Liu family, so they must be loyal to the great man.

Those in the court who regard reputation and feathers more important than life do not dare to do such a ruthless thing.

Although I don’t know why, the Ling Emperor has this kind of confidence.

However, this matter is very important, and if you really want to do this, you still need to think carefully.

"Let me think about this matter carefully."

Emperor Ling gave Liu Yan an ambiguous answer, but in Liu Yan's opinion, this matter is almost certain.

He has been with this emperor for a long time and has learned too much about some of the emperor's habits.

While Liu Yan wrote a letter to suggest, he also recommended himself to become the governor of Jiaozhou.

In his opinion, the emperor of Jiaozhou was far away, with a sparse population and even less taxes. I guess the emperor himself didn't care much.

It is the southernmost remote state with the smallest population in the Han Dynasty. It will not suffer any loss when it is used for experiments, right?

Nothing else matters, as long as I can avoid disaster, it's enough.

Liu Yan's abacus was very loud.

This matter gradually fermented after Emperor Ling summoned several ministers to discuss, and many people knew about it. Dong Fu, who was serving as a Shizhong in the court, also learned about it through such channels.

So Dong Fu found Liu Yan.

"Oh, if Mr. Dong wants to see me, just send someone to find me. Why do you have to come in person?"

When Liu Yan heard that Dong Fu was coming to visit him, he hurried out to greet him in person.

As a clan of the royal family, Liu Yan was much higher than Dong Fu's official position.

However, when Dong Fu comes to visit, he must come out to greet him in person and make a low gesture.

The reason is very simple. Dong Fu is a famous scholar in the world and is already eighty years old this year.

In this country that respects the elderly and loves the young, or in this era of extremely low average life expectancy, it is very remarkable to live to be eighty.

Not to mention that this person who lived to be eighty years old was a famous Confucian scholar and prophecies and divination scholar all over the world.

Speaking of which, this old Mr. Dong Fu is also a legend of the era.

He was a native of Yizhou. Because he lived a long life and was unable to reach the point where the world could not meet, he refused to be summoned by the court ten times. It was not until his twilight years that he responded to the court's recruitment and went out to Sichuan to become an official.

The Ling Emperor was polite to him.

He himself is famous for his classics and is famous for his prophecies and divination, and many disciples have learned from him.

It is difficult for modern people to understand why the prophecies and divination theory was so marketable at that time. A confused saying "The Han Dynasty should be the one who replaced the Han Dynasty" could make the whole world look at each other.

It can only be said that the theory of prophecies and divination was destined to have a huge impact on the Eastern Han Dynasty since Liu Xiu became emperor.

Because Liu Xiu himself successfully became the emperor because of a prophecy that "Liu Xiu should be the emperor."

I don’t know if he really believed it or because he knew it was fake. In order to make the fake become real to maintain his legal status, he maintained the official status of prophecies and divination.

No matter what, the theory of prophecies and divination had an extremely far-reaching impact on the Eastern Han Dynasty.

If you have something to do, the people below will naturally follow.

Not to mention that Liu Xiu believed in prophecies to the point where the ministers who did not believe in prophecies were demoted, which was quite stance that Emperor Wu of Han had abolished all schools of thought and respected Confucianism.

The founding emperors believed so much, and prophecies and divination studies were naturally popular in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

A large number of primordial wise men who established themselves as prophecies and divination came into being. The Eastern Han Dynasty, which was disturbed by prophecies and rumors, was uneasy when it died, and later generations argued endlessly.

In fact, everything is political reasons, and prophecies are also for politics.

Dong Fu is an extremely famous prophecy and divination scholar, and when he comes to visit, Liu Yan must be careful to receive it. If there is anything wrong, Liu Yan will wait to be drowned by the spits of the world.

He carefully helped Dong Fu sit down, and Liu Yan quickly asked someone to pour water for Dong Fu. After Dong Fu took a sip of water, Liu Yan carefully asked Dong Fu about his purpose.

"I heard that Junlang suggested to His Majesty the Emperor to restore the state and pastoral system?"

Dong Fu did not speak out, but instead asked about something related to Liu Yan.

Liu Yan didn't find it strange. Dong Fu was the position of Shizhong, so it was strange that he didn't know that this was strange.

"That's true, does Gong Dong have any opinions?"

"I have heard that Junlang recommends himself as the governor of Jiaozhou?"

Dong Fu's words surprised Liu Yan a little.

"Yes, what advice does Mr. Dong have?"

"What's good about Jiaozhou? Dry and heat, miasma, and uncivilized, the taxes in a state are not as good as those in some major counties in the Central Plains. What's the use of it?"

"ah?"

Liu Yan was very surprised.

He didn't expect Dong Fu to say this.

"Mr. Dong means..."

"The land of Yizhou has thousands of miles of fertile soil inside and dangerous mountains and rivers outside. Although the population is not as large as the Central Plains, it is much more than Jiaozhou. The roads are difficult to travel and the traffic is blocked. No matter what happens, the court cannot learn about it quickly."

Dong Fu grinned, and she was a little naughty: "Junlang, do you know that last night I observed the celestial phenomena and found that there were divisions in Yizhou..."

Dong Fu waved to Liu Yan's ears. Liu Yan stretched his ears in a daze, and then Dong Fu said in a very low voice: "There is a spirit of the emperor in Yizhou."!!!

The emperor's aura?!

Liu Yan's eyes widened and looked at Dong Fu in disbelief.

Dong Fu is a famous qi-seeking sorcerer and a prophecy scholar. He will never mess with his own signs.

Could it be that the division between Yizhou really has the spirit of the emperor, and in the future, the emperor will be born in Yizhou?

Doesn't that mean...

etc.

Liu Yan suddenly reacted.

Dong Fu came over and told him that Yizhou was full of emperor spirit. It seemed that it was not just for this, but it seemed that there was something else in it, right?

Even if you want to say it, you should say it is today rather than yourself?

What does he mean?

I asked me before if I asked the Jiaozhou Governor, and then demoted Jiaozhou and praised Yizhou for its goodness. This is clearly...

Advise me to go to Yizhou?

Could it be that the emperor's aura is...

Liu Yan thought for a while in amazement, then looked at Dong Fu, who was still with a naughty smile, and asked in a low voice: "What Mr. Dong said is true?"

"I'm 80 years old, can I tell lies? "

Liu Yan's face was full of disbelief.

"This matter is of great importance, and it is related to the Han Dynasty's imperial lineage. Why didn't Gong Dong tell the emperor but me?"

"Why do Junlang think it's?"

Dong Fu blinked and looked at Liu Yan with a smile.

The guess that did not exist in Liu Yan's mind suddenly came to fruition.

"Dong Gong, I am a member of the Han Dynasty. I will not do anything contrary to the Han Dynasty."

Liu Yan swallowed and said with difficulty.

"Have you asked you to do something that is contrary to the great man?"

Dong Fu looked innocent: "I just told you that Yizhou is so arrogant and said nothing else. Do you think I said anything?"

Liu Yan felt that was right, and Dong Fu just told him that he did not say anything else.

However, after Dong Fu said this, Liu Yan suddenly remembered the corruption of Xi Jian, the governor of Yizhou, who had been a bit of a big deal in the court recently.

Xi Jian was not a famous scholar, but bought the position of the governor of Yizhou by spending money to buy an official position. This cost of spending money to buy an official has to pay a huge amount of money.

What is the purpose of spending so much money to buy an official position?

Money!
