115 The Death of Hu Qianjia
When it comes to Yangqiu’s punishment of violence, another person needs to be mentioned.
Liu He, whose courtesy name was Ji Cheng, was the brother of the King of Hejian, Liu Shu (shū), the eldest son-in-law of the Guanglu official, and Cheng Huang. When Emperor Huan died, his brother Liu Shu assisted the general Dou Wufu to establish Emperor Ling, and was later murdered by eunuchs. At that time, there was a proverb in Luoyang: "Why do you delay the white-covered car? He is harmonious, and He is harmonious!" It means that Emperor Ling took a "white-covered car" from Hejian to Beijing.
The court pursued Liu Shu's merits and used Liu He to show his reward. In addition, he was Cheng Huang's son-in-law, and by the first year of Guanghe, he was ranked third. At this time, Liu He had the idea of revenge. Cao Jie, the mastermind who killed Liu Shu, was also held accountable and alienated by Emperor Ling because of the deposed Empress Song. On the other hand, Chen Qiu, the Young Mansion of Yongle, Liu Na, the infantry captain of the former Sili captain Yang Qiu and others were also very dissatisfied with Cao Jie and others.
So Chen Qiu persuaded Liu He: "Now Cao Jie and others indulge in harm's way, and have been with the emperor for a long time. Let my brother Liu Shu be murdered by them as the attendant. You are from a royal family and are in the third king. Everyone in the world expects you to defend the country. How can you agree with it and be timid and afraid of offending others? Now Cao Jie and others do whatever they want, and have been with the emperor for a long time. You can write to the court and recommend the Tingwei Yangqiu to be the Sili School Captain again, arrest and kill Cao Jie and others one by one, and the emperor will take charge of the rule. The world is peaceful, and this is the only way." Family hatred and hatred surged in my heart. Liu He wanted to submit a memorial to the court, and recommended Tingwei Yangqiu to be the Sili School Captain again.
The Sili School Commander then supervised the capital and Sili. He had an elite armed force of 1,200 people. Yang Qiu was originally appointed as the Sili School Commander, but was later framed by Cao Jie and others and moved to the court lieutenant.
Liu He and others wanted to take power with Yangqiu, so they took the opportunity to eliminate Cao Jie and others one by one, so that Emperor Ling could take charge of the government alone in order to seek peace in the world.
Liu He then made a conspiracy with Shangshu Liu Na, Yang Qiu and others.
Yang Qiu's concubine was the daughter of Cheng Huang, the general servant Cheng Huang. Therefore, Cao Jie and others gradually heard the news. So while bribing Cheng Huang with generous gifts, he also coerced him. Cheng Huang was afraid and urgent, so he told Cao Jie and all the conspiracies of Yang Qiu and others. So Cao Jie and others reported to Emperor Ling first: "Liu He and Liu Na, Chen Qiu and Yang Qiu communicated with each other's letters, colluded with each other, and had 'discussed'."
Emperor Ling was furious. In winter, in October Jiashen (14th), he arrested Liu He, Chen Qiu, Yang Qiu, Liu Na and others and were all killed in prison.
After a group of upright scholars including Liu He and Chen Qiu were executed, Zhang Rang and Cao Jie and ten others became traitors and called the "Ten Constant Assistant".
"The government is getting worse, and the people in the world are confused and thieves are rising."
A turbulent Three Kingdoms era has begun.
Seeing that Liu Bei was silent, Cui Wei asked, "What do you think of Shao Jun?"
Liu Bei raised his head gently: "Farm and raise soldiers in case of unexpected danger."
Chen Shi nodded and said, "Sun Tzu said, 'To treat chaos with peace of mind with quietness, this is to treat the mind with heart; to treat the near and far, to wait for labor with leisure, to serve fullness with hunger, this is to treat strength'."
"Use stillness to control movement, and respond to changes with constant change." Liu Bei made a sound.
The four scholars came to worship with wine and bowed in sternly. Liu Bei also returned the gift.
This is the etiquette of the monarch and his subjects.
Therefore, the four great scholars worshipped first.
When I went out, I encountered snowflakes falling. The Giant Horse Water never freezes all year round and flows eastward. After the Jidian Canal is dug, a part of the Giant Horse Water flows into Dongdian and then diverts through Dongdian. Therefore, the entire Linxiang Waterway is rarely frozen. Donggang City was also built before the snow falls.
Except for not having time to lay the rails, the port construction is roughly the same as that of Nangang.
The famous product from Lousang, Dukang japonica rice, was continuously transported to Zhucheng in the south. The specialties from Zhucheng in the south were also transported to Linxiang for sale. There were no connections between the north and the south. Especially in Yichang Mountain, 120 miles southeast of Lousang, a hot spring was found. The spring water converged into a stream and poured into Giant Horse Water. Therefore, it was cold and not frozen. Liu Bei then ordered people to build a different restaurant nearby for hot spring health.
Liang Jiang said that the hot water here is like boiling soup. The water temperature is extremely high. Liu Bei's heart moved. Can it be used for heating? If a water pipe is built to divert water to nearby Zhucheng, can it be replaced by firewood and coal?
Then he found Su Bo and told him what he thought.
Su Bo nodded and said: Maybe you can try it. Nanguan City is about fifty miles away. Let’s check along the way to see if it can lead to water here.
It doesn’t matter whether it succeeds or not.
If it can be done, the underground hot water will continue to bring heating, and how much firewood and coal will be saved in a year. It seems that there are a lot of hot springs in Yichang. News comes again when good craftsmen who survey minerals.
Liu Bei ordered people to record them one by one.
Three days after heavy snow.
The scout came to report that there was a Xianbei tribe that had passed Lulong's pass. The Wuhuan Chuan Shuan of Youbeiping, who was guarding Lulong, was trying to go to Linxiang.
Although there are many Xianbei people going south, they are all based on families. This is the first time a whole tribe has gone south.
In the midst of trouble, be careful. Liu Bei then reported to the county, and then rushed to the court for 600 miles to interrogate the Huangmen Order Zuo Feng and Cui Taiwei. He asked about the court's motion.
Zuo Feng and Cui Taiwei replied one after another, saying that the Marquis of Linxiang could comfort him on his own.
Speaking of the great victory in the Northern Expedition, the imperial court spent a lot of money to reward Gaoche, the Southern Xiongnu, and the Wuhuan tribes. It was also the established national policy of this dynasty. Therefore, as long as the imperial court did not spend money or food, the Hu people went south to support him, the emperor and the officials in the court did not object.
Your Majesty is not surprised. He neither spends his money nor charges more. Just as Liu Bei is sitting there and accepting refugees, why not do it?
Why are all officials in the court silent?
Liu Bei did not dare to be careless. He also sent a letter to Taiwei Cui to ask about the reason.
Taiwei Cui replied: The blood of all the lords has not dried yet. The civil and military officials in the court are silent.
Liu Bei sighed.
After Liu He, Chen Qiu and other groups of upright scholars were executed, the government was "more and worse". As expected.
The great scholar Cai Yong also said another possibility: "The country's fortune will be over in four hundred years. People's minds are confused and change. Therefore, they sit down and ignore it."
The teacher also wrote: "It's okay to accept it."
By the time of the Xianbei River, it was already cold and cold.
The black Xianbei cyclists were pressing against the tents and chariots, and they lined up along the official road.
The people and horses are silent. The heaven and earth are sad.
Liu Bei invited the deputy Fuluo family to climb the western palace to look out.
The deputy Vulo then recognized the flag: "It is the Eastern Xianbei Suli."
After Tan Shihuai's death, Suli, Mijia, Queji, and several small groups, which were supported by the former alliance "East Lords", were scattered in western Liaoning, Youbeiping and Yuyang. As the high chariots went south to plunder, they attacked each other. The cattle and sheep herders suffered countless losses. Life was difficult and they could not continue. They went south before the heavy snow and joined the Han court.
At its peak, there were more than 1,000 people and tens of thousands of people. Now only the Hu Qian family has fallen, with more than 10,000 people.
