Liang Xiao lived in Lushan comfortably, and he was not willing to go to Chang'an to suffer, nor did he want to go to the flood scene. It was not that he did not have the sense of dedication, but that he felt it was inexplicable. No matter how good he did, what was the use of? He didn't hear a word, and immediately drove out of Chang'an, and years of hard work were wasted.

Besides, the reason why he was driven out of Chang'an was because of the Yellow River's breach? At this time, wouldn't he sprinkle salt on his wounds? With the emperor's virtue of being able to do everything for face, would he accept such suggestions?

Therefore, he felt that Dou Ying was too confused, otherwise he would not have made such a foolish move.

Liu Ling felt that it might not be. Liang Xiao asked him why, but she didn't say it, just laughed, and she smiled mysteriously.

At the end of August, the emperor's edict was sent to Lushan Mountain. Yuhuan was not as joking as Liu Ling. He just asked Liang Xiao if he had improved his condition and did not say anything about the government, but he said some gossip, such as his daily routine such as overwork and poor health recently.

Liang Xiao was a little confused after reading the edict. Which one is the song? Are you playing the friendship card? Please, when I left Chang'an, I had no affection, okay? At this time, I got close to you and drove me out of Chang'an and asked Princess Guantao to buy my property at a low price. What did you do?

"Go?" Liu Ling glanced at Liang Xiao, smiling.

"Uh, what do you think?" Liang Xiao kicked the ball to Liu Ling again.

"From the content of the edict, you can go or not. After all, the emperor did not explicitly say that you would call you back to the capital. If you really don't want to go, write a reply letter and thank you for your kindness, and it will be over. But..." Liu Ling hesitated for a moment: "From the long-term plan, I suggest you go."

"Why?"

"If you really want to retire, you naturally don't need to go to Chang'an to deal with it again. But if you want to accomplish great things, you will not be able to leave the court for a long time. Only by taking advantage of the situation can you be as powerful as a bank. Sad people are easy to persuade, while suffering people are easily grateful. If you are in a state of anxiety today, it is the time when you need you. If you don't go, when will you go?"

Liang Xiao didn't say anything, he took two steps back and forth. "But, I'm not good at managing the river, so I probably won't be able to help."

"It is not necessary that you go to govern the river. You see, the emperor's edict does not mention the matter of governing the river at all. As long as you appear in front of the emperor, you will support the emperor. What's more, you don't understand the control of the river at all. The specific details need to be studied, but in terms of the high vision, who can surpass you?"

"But... I finally got out of Chang'an and stopped letting you be a good person, so how could I enter the tiger's den again?"

"How can I get a tiger's son if I don't enter the tiger's den?" Liu Ling walked over. "Besides, not everyone needs to keep the responsibilities of Chang'an."

Liang Xiao nodded. The Chang'an was for officials with a capacity of more than 2,000 stones. Ordinary officials did not have this requirement. For example, Xu Le, Zhufu Yan and other guards did not have such requirements. If he did not serve as a prefect on the frontier and did not lead troops to fight, there would be no regulations for compulsory retention.

"When Wei Qihou is old, he can only use his prestige to shake the flag and drums to influence public opinion. The specific matters need to be undertaken by young and strong people. If Wei Qihou is asked to do it, his body may not be able to bear it. Am I willing to watch people like Tian Fu occupy a high position?"

Liang Xiao looked at Liu Ling and nodded. "Okay, I'll just go. But you can't leave. A lot of things here are just starting out, and it won't work without you."

Liu Ling smiled. "Don't worry, I won't go anywhere."

In early September, Liang Xiao led more than a hundred cavalry to Chang'an, traveling starry night and night.

The residence of the champion Hou in Chang'an is still preserved, and the servants are all there. When they learned that the champion Hou was coming back, they were all very excited. They cleaned the mansion in advance and waited for Liang Xiao to enter the mansion.

Liang Xiao's soul comes from two thousand years later, and he has always cherished his servants, needless to say. Liang Ma's background is humble and has endured hardships, and he can understand the difficulties of his servants. He has never been harsh. Even Liu Ling, who was born in a wealthy family, is not like those arrogant people. It has always been a beautiful person in the Champion Marquis' Mansion, which is something that everyone in Chang'an knows.

Liang Xiao entered the mansion and walked into the backyard. He looked at the clean but somewhat empty mansion, and felt a lot of emotion for a moment.

Fortunately, he didn't make him sigh for too long, so Dou Ying and Dong Zhongshu visited one after another. Then, the Chen brothers also came and clamored to welcome Liang Xiao to clean up the dust. Liang Xiao was not easy to refuse, so he had to agree. Although there were all servants in the family, Tu Huaer and others did not come, and there was only Yueliang among his wives and concubines. Liang Xiao thought it would be more troublesome, but Yueliang once again showed his ability beyond Liang Xiao's imagination. She went to the kitchen to take a look, checked the existing ingredients, and arranged someone to go to the market to buy urgently. The time was not long, so she arranged a sumptuous banquet.

Liang Xiao was surprised and was once again impressed by Liu Ling's vision that made the moon accompany him.

After drinking for three rounds, Dou Ying took the initiative to explain his intentions.

"Tian Feng is sick, it is said that he has a neck injury and is bedridden. As for the authenticity, no one can tell whether it is true or not. But this is also a good thing. Now the Censor Han Anguo acts as the Prime Minister, which is much more effective than Tian Feng. If he can take this opportunity to promote the Prime Minister's relocation, it will be much more convenient to do things in the future."

Liang Xiao held the wine glass and pondered without saying a word. After a while, he lived in Lushan for several months. He had the opportunity to jump out of the court to see the court. He could see many things clearly. Dou Ying was indeed capable and ambitious, but he had no successors. None of the Dou and Chen family members had such ability and vision. The Chen brothers are the most obvious example. You cannot have too high expectations when working with them.

"What are your outstanding opinions about the court in front of you?"

Dou Ying frowned slightly, Liang Xiao's attitude came over Weiming, not as excited as he expected. He looked at Liang Xiao. "Bo Ming, what's wrong with you? Are you a little discouraged? This is not enough. Life is like the sun and the moon, and there is inevitably brightness and darkness. How can you be discouraged by a moment of frustration?"

Liang Xiao smiled. "I'm not discouraged. I just know what I can do and what I can't do. The difficulties facing the court now are just a few: one is that the Huns are about to invade the south and the Hexi is unstable; the second is that the river breaks again, and Shandong has been flooded for more than a year, and there is no hope of solving it; secondly, it's probably..."

Liang Xiao stopped, his eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, and finally fell on Dong Zhongshu's face. Dong Zhongshu was stunned for a moment, then laughed silently, with a bit of lust in embarrassment. Although his article has not been finalized yet, it has caused a lot of sensation. He is very satisfied with this, and even a little proud of it. In the past, he was most reluctant to see Liang Xiao because Liang Xiao did not follow the routine and often made him unable to deal with it. Now Liang Xiao has read his article and has no criticism. He can finally feel at ease in front of Liang Xiao.

"Of course, you have to write articles, but you can't just write articles." Liang Xiao smiled. "Master Dong, the article was written according to the times. Can the economic gains and losses of the Qin Dynasty come to an end? Let's first study the history of changes in the river?"

"The history of the changes of the river?"

"Yes, if you want to control a river, you must naturally know the river affairs. I want to know the records of river water in classics since the written records. Only by knowing the ins and outs of the world can you take advantage of the situation and treat the symptoms and problems. Do you think?"

Dong Zhongshu pondered for a moment and felt a little difficult. "This matter is not difficult, it's just cumbersome. It takes time and effort to review so many classics, and I'm afraid it won't be completed in a short while. Controlling the river is a big deal. It's a day to delay, and I don't know how many more people will die."

"The Master is very concerned. So I want to ask the emperor to issue an edict and arrange some people to be disciples for you to help you complete this research."

Dong Zhongshu's eyes lit up. He had some disciples, but they were private relationships and the court did not bear any costs. These people had different purposes for following him. Some were really for studying, while others were for the sake of becoming an official. Since he was neglected by the emperor, those who wanted to become an official have gradually become alienated, among which was Lu Bushu, who he once valued the most.

If the court comes forward to equip him with disciples, these people will have official identities, which is equivalent to joining the officialdom, so they will naturally be able to assist him in research with peace of mind.

"Can you do it?"

"I don't know, I just have such an idea. I dare not make up for whether the emperor can agree. However, I have a request."

"you say."

"You have to stick to your current research methods, and you can no longer build books with your walls, waste your energy, and end up in a cocoon. If there are any remarks like the response of heaven and man, I will still cause trouble for you."

Dong Zhongshu suddenly blushed and was embarrassed.

When Dou Ying saw this, he quickly interrupted. "Bo Ming, have you read Master Dong's article? How do you feel?"

"It's not as grand as "Spring and Autumn Fanlu", but it's better than solid and meaningful." Liang Xiao smacked his lips and showed a sly smile. "Teacher, I ruined your decades of hard work. Don't you hate me?"

Dong Zhongshu looked around but didn't say anything.

Of course he hated Liang Xiao. His lifelong efforts were destroyed by Liang Xiao, how could he not hate him? He is now nearly fifty years old and has not had much more days. Even if he works hard, how could he write a big article like "Spring and Autumn Festival". However, he was embarrassed to say that this was Liang Xiao's responsibility. The theory he founded sounded very grand, and everything in the world was all inclusive, but the most essential "resonance of heaven and man" was bleeding in the face of reality, but it also proved that this theory was not as beautiful as he imagined. Even if Liang Xiao could not refute, he would be ridiculed by future generations in the future.

"To express my apology, I want to provide Master with an opportunity to live out his reputation throughout the ages."

Dong Zhongshu was moved, but couldn't hide his face, and he hesitated: "What...opportunity?"

"I have to ask the Master first, whether to be named before your lifetime or after your death."

"How do you say this?"

"Master, let me tell me your choice first."

Dong Zhongshu hesitated a little. "You have a name behind you." He smiled. "I am famous now, so I don't have to pursue it anymore."

"The Master is brilliant." Liang Xiao raised his thumb. "I want to ask the Master to make a big book, not talk about the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, but only talk about the things that have happened since the Spring and Autumn Period, and end at Xiang Yu's Gaixia. Imitate the Spring and Autumn Period, and evaluate the classics according to the age, determine the errors, and verify them in detail..."

Dong Zhongshu suddenly remembered what Sima Qian said, and his heart was surging. If Sima Qian was still a child, he could only be considered an ambition at most, then Liang Xiao’s suggestions were much more feasible. But in this way, he would probably devote all his life to the rest of his life. However, once written, he would leave his name for eternity. Not to mention anything else, just continuing the title of Spring and Autumn is enough to allow him to succeed the saint.

Dou Ying was also a little moved. "Bo Ming, this is not easier than controlling a river."

"It's really not easy, so I feel that no one can do it if he is not a Master."

Dong Zhongshu was suddenly proud after hearing Liang Xiao's words. "Since Junhou said this, I will take it as my own. I just don't know how Junhou plans to arrange it. To accomplish this, it not only requires manpower and material resources, but also requires collecting a large number of classics."

"If Your Majesty agrees, I will make arrangements that satisfy the Master as much as possible, so as to ensure that Master does not have to worry about trivial matters and complete this major event wholeheartedly."

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

Liang Xiao turned his head and looked at Chen Xu and Chen Xi brothers. "Xian Kunzhong, do you want to get a share of the pie?"

Chen Xu smiled. "Okay, Liang Boming, I know that our brothers owe you the favor. As long as we can repay this favor, you can just speak up. Our brothers are in the wrong first, and we will lie down today and let you slaughter."

Chen Xiang also said: "Yes, you, Liang Boming, aren't someone who treats your friends badly, we believe in you."

Liang Xiao couldn't help laughing. "Since that's the case, I'm not polite. The Master needs a quiet place to study books and a stable supply of life. Do you brothers help solve it?"

The Chen brothers looked at each other and nodded at the same time. "No problem, let's go back and discuss it, and we will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. With the business we have in our hands, I dare not say that if there is too much, it should not be a problem to spend three or five hundred gold a year."

Dou Ying sat aside, watching Liang Xiao make an inadvertent decision on a major event, and secretly exclaimed in his heart. He believed that Liang Xiao was definitely not talking nonsense, he must have had some plan, but he didn't say it clearly.

Dou Ying's eyes moved and she smiled before she could speak. "Bo Ming, Master Dong has something big to do, and where is me, can I use it?"

"How dare you arrange a senior like Mr. Dou?" Liang Xiao smiled half-truely. "However, there is one thing that only Mr. Dou can dispatch. I wonder if Mr. Dou is interested?"

Dou Ying said with a sigh: "You said."

"I saw a part of the manuscript you sent to Huainan, which was amazing. Once this book was published, although it could not be compared with the masterpieces that Mr. Dong would write in the future, it would be eye-catching. I hope Mr. Dou can continue to help them go further and go further to the ends of the world."

"The ends of the world?" Dou Ying stroked her beard and pondered for a moment. "Do you want me to write another "Shan Hai Jing"?"

Liang Xiao stroked his palm and smiled. "Mr. Dou is indeed as wise as a torch. That's right, there are astronomy, geography, and astronomy matters. If you are doing it, please take care of the geography matters by Dou. In addition to Master Dong's humanities, it is the three talents of heaven, earth, man and man."

Dou Ying and others were stunned for a while after hearing this. Liang Xiao was indeed very good at making a big move. Dou Ying's eyes flashed and he laughed: "Liang Boming, the three talents of heaven, earth, and man are all ready. What does the King of Huainan do? In terms of knowledge, he is the only person in the world who can compete with Master Dong."

Liang Xiao smiled modestly. "He is now devoted to studying physics, and he is just a little trick that is not a good place."—
