Chapter 24: State-owned Virtuous Prince
Under Yanmen Pass, looking at Liu Jiye who was kneeling down, Zhao Kuangmei couldn't help but feel one after another. Just see this person, why is she so handsome?
Two eyes, one nose and one mouth.
Two different time and space gradually converged in Zhao Kuangmei's mind, but in the end, they became the appearance of Liu Jiye kneeling on the ground.
When I really saw someone, I was not as excited as I thought. Instead, I felt my legs raised and looked at him with a condescending gaze.
"What do you call people under the hall?"
"Sinner, Liu Jiye."
"Are you still the surname Liu?"
After asking, he shook his head and ignored him. He turned to the celadon wine filling and started to fill hot water. He sat on the cold wine and heated it up, signaling Shi Shouxin and Gao Huaide to drink with him, and then he ignored him again.
"I……"
After a little bit of trouble, Liu Jiye sighed as if he was appointed, "I am the son of the Yang family in Linzhou. Since the Northern Han Dynasty has been destroyed, I will restore my nature. Yang Jiye pays homage to the young master and to the two generals of the Jieshu."
Zhao Kuangmei still said unyieldingly: "The word "Shen" is not good. This word is left in the name, but whose karma is it to inherit?"
"Yes, Yang Ye pays homage to the young master."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Kuangmei's originally serious expression immediately showed an extremely bright smile. She helped him up with her own hands, let him sit beside him, and brought him a hot cup to pour wine for him personally.
"General Yang is loyal and courageous, and it is admirable. He can win one general, but he is even happier than me who wins the whole Hedong. My brother has always valued heroes and loved heroes. I think we will return to Beijing tomorrow and ask me to introduce you to my brother. He will be overjoyed when he sees you as such a hero. Come on, drink, drink."
At this point, Zhao Kuangmei's trip to Hedong finally came to a perfect end.
Since the matter was done, Zhao Kuangmei couldn't stay for a day, and inexplicably became homeless. She said she wanted to leave and really wanted to leave the next day. The next day, she took about a hundred imperial guards and led Yang Ye and left the large army.
Anyway, he couldn't get involved in the Hedong affairs. With three generals Li Yun and Shi Shouxin Gao Huaide, he would be the only reason that he would be causing trouble.
Shi Shouxin and Gao Huaide were still confused, and they didn't know what they were going to do next. What was going on in Li Yun now? Zhao Kuangyin had no intention to come back. Besides, since the Northern Han Dynasty sent a letter, they were also afraid that the Liao Kingdom would have a retaliatory invasion of the south, so naturally they stayed in Luzhou City for the time being, waiting for the instructions of the central government.
Nothing to say along the way.
After all, Zhao Kuangmei was still young and was not in a hurry to rush on the way back, so she got a carriage to take. She stopped when she saw the station along the way, so she simply traveled around and walked slowly. She was content with her heart, but she couldn't help but start to fantasize about what kind of official he would be after returning to Beijing.
Because he walked slowly, the news spread faster than he walked. When he was less than halfway through the road, the news that the Three Sages King planned to decide Hedong had already reached him, so that his pompous appearance became increasingly greater along the way. As soon as he walked, he heard that the Three Sages Kings had arrived. Whether it was civil and military officials or peddlers, they actually surrounded him to watch the fun.
But Zhao Kuangmei was a little crazy and thought it was quite fun, so she simply refused everyone. Every place had to interact warmly with the people who were watching their lively, and even shook hands and greeted each other.
This led to the fact that the things that were already quite lively made even more lively by him. He knew that these ordinary people wanted to see him were basically similar to those of them. The mentality of living was similar to that of modern people who saw giant pandas, but they didn't care at all, and they even took their own safety issues more openly.
Who would be idle and assassinate himself? As for those little thieves who seek wealth, can they beat Yang Ye?
Such a friendly attitude made him more popular by chance, so that he was so kind of respectful to the wise and humble, and all these messy words were all at ease to him.
Yang Ye himself was taciturn most of the time, just silently serving as a guard beside him. On this day, Zhao Kuangmei stopped at the post station again and once again happily received the people who were watching him, a rare animal, and shook hands one by one. Yang Ye was holding a spear and leaning on the carriage, still looking like someone else owed him money.
But he saw his wife, Zhe, holding the child, poked her head out of the carriage and asked, "The Three Virtues are respectful to the wise and the poor, and they are close to the people. This is the patronage of the country. Why is the husband depressed? Could it be that he is regretful to the Northern Han people and unwilling to serve the Zhao family?"
Yang Ye thought about it and shook his head, "I don't want that anymore. Since the surname has been changed, my life has been left behind. After all, my eyes are about to look forward, but... Don't the lady think that the young master is a little frivolous?"
"After all, Isn't this normal for only a teenager in his teens? I think this is a move of being close to the people and loving the people."
"I didn't say this, my wife doesn't think it's wrong to be called the Three Virtue Kings? Now the world is still the world of the Great Zhou. Besides... even if Zhao's family takes over Guo, he may not be named Prince. Besides, the title of the Virtue King is not criticized? However, although the young master is wise and brave, he is willing to accept such an inappropriate title. Isn't this frivolous?"
When Zhe heard this, he laughed softly and said, "My husband, although you understand the way of fighting formations, you can't see through the hearts of the people in the world."
"Am I wrong?"
"My magistrate, you like to read history. However, what you said may not be wrong in all dynasties, but at the moment, it is a big mistake. You also said that these three wise kings can be called both wise and brave, a young hero, although they are young, they are extremely intelligent. You can see what the lord of the lord of the lord, can he really not see it?"

"I would like to ask my wife for advice?"
"The Lord of the House thinks, why do the people support him so much and love him that when they go to every place, there are people waiting at the post station, just to see him?"
Yang Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Of course, it was because of his clever plan to determine Hedong and save the people from the suffering of war. Especially in this way, the northwest border defense recovered the important town of Taiyuan and occupied the Yanmen Pass. The threat of the Khitan was greatly reduced. Affected by this, the people's lives could be much better. Alas, the Northern Han colluded with the Khitan to recognize the thief as their father. Although they were able to survive and prolong the country's fortunes, they eventually lost the hearts of the people."
"Does my husband only see this?"
"This... do you mean my vision is shallow? What did the lady see from this?"
"I only saw four words, and people feel at ease."
"People's minds are at ease?"
"Since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains have experienced twelve emperors in the five dynasties and twelve emperors, and other big and small countries in the world, and the Jiedu and the like have replaced each other. The people have suffered a lot. Which dynasty changes, or even just the change of the Jiedu and the change of people, isn't it a catastrophe for the people?"
"However, on the day of the Chenqiao mutiny of Zhao Dianjian, it is said that Kaifeng's city was not easy to indulge in the city. None of the officials of the previous dynasty died. Even until now, Zhao Dianjian still did not take the last step. Instead, he asked for and resigned three times. The governors in various places, who had heavy troops, did not rebel. The only Li Yun, now proved that this was a plan for the Northern Han Dynasty. His husband, the twelve emperors of the Five Dynasties, has such a thing happened in the world since the twelve emperors of the Five Dynasties?"
Yang Ye had nodded and said, "That's true, the Zhao brothers... Although loyalty and righteousness are detrimental, there are indeed some extraordinary things."
"Loyalty?"
When Zhe heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Will there really be one person in the world, all officials, who thinks that the seven-year-old emperor will have the ability to stabilize the world and eliminate the chaos of two hundred years since the Tang Dynasty? Without Zhao Dianjian, he could defend the country?"
Yang Ye was speechless.
"The market is not easy to indulge in, the sword cannot see blood, and the governor does not rebel. The Zhao brothers have actually set a precedent for the twelve emperors of the Five Dynasties since the end of the Tang Dynasty. Zhao Dianjian's name of benevolence and virtue can be passed down to the world, and the replacement of imperial power can be slowly and slowly. What is even more commendable is that Zhao Dianjian is only thirty-four this year, and these three wise kings are not as good as the ones. Isn't this the hope of confusing the world?"
"Husband, the people of the world are suffering from chaos. It has been too long. For too long, a 70-year-old man can go through the chaos of the Six Dynasties. In history, the world has never been so chaotic. People in the world, no matter whether they are poor or rich, no matter whether they are cheap or noble, can no longer bear it."
"I heard that on the day of the Chenqiao mutiny, the Three Sages and the people forced Han Tong to surrender, so the three requests and resignations were made today. This time, the Three Sages went to Luzhou to persuade him, which eliminated the civil strife and even recovered Hedong."
"The state has a virtuous crown, and there is hope for chaos. The people may not have imagined so much, but from instinct, they will spontaneously build momentum for the Three Wise Kings, in order to achieve brothers and brothers in the future. I hope that this young wise king can borrow the country and truly create peace and rule the world."
After hearing this, Yang Ye suddenly realized it, and then nodded with deep understanding.
The world is already too crisp, so crisp that it can no longer withstand the slightest turmoil.
In fact, it can be seen from the names of the people in the world that in this era, almost half of the men's names would have Yan, Yan, Ji, etc., and the meanings were self-evident. On the contrary, the characters that were particularly valued in the Han and Tang Dynasties were no longer so concerned about, and were almost all randomly selected. For example, Murong Yanzhao, as the first soldier of the new generation, actually had a name Hualong, and no one asked him to change it.
At the same time, everyone in the world can understand that whether the chaotic times can be stable is not Zhao Kuangyin. After all, there were wise kings, Li Siyuan, Liu Zhiyuan, and Chai Rong, who were all wise and wise kings, but will the world be chaotic once they die? The key to whether they can stabilize the world lies in the crown prince behind Zhao Kuangyin.
Perhaps, it is really an instinct. People in the world have really endured this chaotic world to the limit. As long as there is a little bit of the dawn of chaos, they will inevitably give it all and grasp it firmly.
"Husband, you always talk about loyalty and righteousness. However, in my opinion, loyalty has small loyalty, great loyalty, righteousness has small righteousness, great righteousness, and great righteousness. A loyal king with a family surname is a small loyalty. However, being loyal to the way of heaven and assisting the saints in truly peace and peace, this is the true righteousness and the true desire of the people."
"With the wisdom of the Three Sages, we can naturally understand these things. Isn't it because of the high-profile purpose of meeting the people's expectations and also applying this mission?"
When Yang Ye heard this, he was thinking. He looked at Zhao Kuangmei's happy smile and the excited expressions from the hearts of the onlookers. Countless thoughts of all kinds could not help but come to his mind. Looking back on his past twenty-eight years, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.
"The world... I want peace, people's hearts... I want stability."
But it was abrupt. He stood up and shouted loudly from behind: "Young Master!"
Zhao Kuangmei turned back in surprise: "What's the matter?"
"Dare you sure that the young master's ambitions may be assured to the people?"
Zhao Kuangmei naturally didn't know what Yang Ye got crazy about inexplicably. In fact, he was not easy to answer this. As a younger brother, he actually didn't say anything.
As soon as Yang Ye said this, countless people who were originally noisy actually calmed down. Countless pairs of eyes full of expectation stared at him, as if they were waiting for the answer they were looking forward to.
For a moment, Zhao Kuangmei felt inexplicably suppressed by something and became heavier.
"I... dare not say what will happen in the future, but if I ask about my ambition, I would like to make a vow here today. In this life, I should establish my heart for the heaven and earth, establish my destiny for the living people, inherit my unique knowledge for the past sages, and open peace for all generations."
When Yang Ye heard this, he felt excited as if his body was struck by lightning. He couldn't help but murmur: "Stand up your mind for heaven and earth, establish your destiny for the people, inherit your unique knowledge for the past saints, and bring peace to the ages?"
