Chapter 35 1. Liu Xiu's thoughts

Gongsun Shu left, and the last stupid and fearless opponent in the world left Liu Xiu in this way.At that moment, the general situation of the world was like a big drama on the stage, and finally the drama stopped and the curtain fell. Looking back, it has been fifteen years since Liu Xiu rebelled.For fifteen years, he swung his sharp sword and swept across the world, destroying all demons.However, when he looked back and recalled the past, there was no excitement or relief in his heart. On the contrary, an inexplicable emptiness and exhaustion entangled him tightly like a continuous snake.This kind of weariness of war seems to be born in his bones.When the only enemies left were Kai Xiao and Gongsun Shu, he began to get bored and didn't want to fight anymore.However, Kai Xiao and Gongsun Shu repeatedly refused to listen to the edict and forced him to draw his sword.

Now, they are like a wisp of cloud in the sky, drifting away with the cloud.It was as if they had come into this world just to be wiped out by that cloud.It was war that chose Liu Xiu, not Liu Xiu who chose war.He was tired, and finally he could choose not to fight. The miracle seemed to belong only to the Liu family.Twenty years back in time, if it weren't for the chaos in the world, Liu Xiu might be a millionaire, sent to the county to give a report on the soil, spreading the glorious concept of hard work and getting rich, and then wearing a big red flower and being embraced back to his hometown .But history is so ridiculous that it provides him with a huge stage and pushes him to the position of giant.

But now, Liu Xiu is still facing a heavy task, that is, how to arrange for the brothers who share weal and woe around him after the world is settled. Prior to this, Liu Bang had gathered the great achievements of Goujian, the king of Yue, and created an unprecedented example-under the sky of the Liu family, all kings with different surnames must die.Liu Bang’s mode of killing heroes was summed up by Han Xin long before his death. The scientific name is: the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks; We know that love is strongly exclusive and possessive.In fact, the most exclusive and possessive thing in the world is not love, but power.Power is like a magic wand, as long as you hold it, you will go crazy instantly.

Analyzing this principle, we will find that Han Xin only knew that Liu Bang killed him, but he didn't know why he killed him. All politicians like the words "love honeymoon".When the two of them are like glue, and when they are in perfect harmony, all kinds of words, such as vows between mountains and seas, dry seas and rocks, and Wushan is not a cloud, can all come out.If you turn against each other, it will become faster than the weather in June, and it will be more vicious than a cobra. Liu Bang killed Han Xin, Peng Yue and others because his love honeymoon with them was over.What's more, Liu Bang didn't really love Han Xin and others, they were just sharing the same bed with different dreams.

Back then, Liu Bang asked Han Xin, Peng Yue and others to make an appointment to besiege Xiang Yu together, and when Liu Bang arrived, he found that they had not come to the meeting on time.As a result, Xiang Yu took the opportunity to chase and kill Liu Bang, which made Liu Bangte lose face and extremely depressed. Fortunately, it was Zhang Liang who offered a plan and promised to become king.After the deal was established, Han Xin and Peng Yue were willing to send troops after another false pledge of love.This kind of politician, in a romantic situation, is an authentic gold digger, shouldn't he be abandoned?

Comparing the two, Liu Xiu has generals like Han Xin, such as Geng Yan, and he even has generals like Xiao He, such as Kou Xun.However, according to his observation, he has not found anyone who is as shameless as Han Xin, who is so shameless as to ask for an official. In fact, Liu Xiu has invented a development model that suits him as well as others.This model was directly borrowed by a man named Zhao Kuangyin hundreds of years later, and it was nicknamed by later generations: drinking wine releases military power. Yes, Liu Xiu didn't want to use the knife, nor did he want to leave any sequelae of his power.His trick is to make many brothers realize that they are bored, bid farewell to the power field, and go home to enjoy their old age.

It was Deng Yu who first discovered that Liu Xiu wanted to stop fighting and break up.Among Liu Xiu's followers, no one is more die-hard than Deng Yu, and no one knows his idol Liu Xiu better than him.Although Deng Yu had no merit in defeating the red eyebrows, he still ranked first among all the heroes and enjoyed the largest fiefdom. Back then, who planned for Liu Xiu to leave Liu Xuan and start his own company?It was Deng Yu.Deng Yu was the most important and crucial historical pusher in Liu Xiu's rebellious career.Such pushers can see Liu Xiu's future, and of course they can also see their own future.

Deng Yu believed that the world was basically settled, and the generals stayed in the capital to support their troops, and Liu Xiu had many worries.Instead of watching the future go out of control, it is better for him to set an example now and take a back seat. So Deng Yu called others to petition Liu Xiu together, saying that he would quit officialdom and go home to study knowledge. Soon, Liu Xiu approved.Liu Xiu simply did not do anything, and all those who were named Marquis were not allowed to hold positions in government agencies.As soon as the policy was promulgated, Geng Yan, the tyrannical man, also handed over the seal and ribbon of the general. After a while, everyone voluntarily quit the officialdom and went home to study.

The so-called retreat after success is the act of a wise man.This is a hello, me, everyone's happy ending.This situation is very in line with Liu Xiu's political aesthetic philosophy.If Han Xin had such wisdom back then, would he still be hacked to death by Aunt Lu Pheasant? Li Tong is also one of the senior officials who have retired from the world.Li Tong, who sent Li Yi to persuade Liu Xiu to rebel in the early years, is also considered a veteran.Liu Xiu told Li Tong that other high-ranking officials occasionally have meetings in the palace, but you are different, high-level decision-making must be attended.There are not many places, only Deng Yu and you, Li Tong.

Of course, the world is basically settled now, and there is still a lot of finishing work that must be done by someone.In this regard, Liu Xiu specially left one who can work, and this is Da Sima Wu Han.Wu Han is like a firefighting captain, wherever there is a fire, he goes there to put out the fire. Four years later, the fire of the firefighting captain's life burned to the end and died of illness. After Wu Han left, there was one person who was still working hard, and he was Ma Yuan.Ma Yuan is doing business, Liu Xiu is relieved.In Liu Xiu's view, if there is no Ma Yuan for some things, there is really no one who can replace them.His job, like that of Zhao Chongguo back then, was to deal with the ethnic minorities in the west.

Zhonglang Future She told Liu Xiu before his death that Ma Yuan had to take care of the ethnic minorities in the west who took the opportunity to rebel.At that time, Liu Xiu worshiped Ma Yuan as the prefect of Longxi.Facts have also proved that Lai She has a unique vision.Ma Yuan led only 3,000 infantry and defeated Xianling, Qiang and other ethnic minorities. Over the past few years, Ma Yuan has played hide-and-seek and guerrilla warfare with the Qiang people in order to stabilize Longxi without complaint or regret, and has repeatedly made contributions.In the eyes of other comrades, Ma Yuan is a good comrade who is willing to work, does not expect remuneration, and does not love property.Such comrades are formidable and admirable, and they are all admired like a surging river, endlessly. Comrades who want to work and are able to work are of course good comrades.But soon, he discovered that Ma Yuan, an old comrade, had exposed a fatal weakness. Everyone has weaknesses, and the problem is that Ma Yuan's flaw seriously hurt Liu Xiu.Thinking of this, Liu Xiu couldn't sleep.Indistinctly, a murderous aura that had never been seen before surged out of his heart.
