Liu Xie wished he could shave himself heavily at this moment.

The so-called official language is a kind of decent and polite language that those who are in high positions say to their superiors, subordinates, and colleagues in a certain grand occasion. The authenticity of such words is generally relatively low, and about eight out of ten points is false, because the thing that those with high positions and power pay the most attention to is decent, and every word and deed of their words and deeds is an example for all the people in the world or the scholars of the country. Maintaining decent is the most basic quality of those with high positions and power. Telling the truth means endless troubles and will lose people's words.

Therefore, as the current supreme ruler of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xie, is very good at speaking official language, and speaks better than ordinary people and listens to them.

But everything should be more sensible. If you say too much good things, you will get frustrated. If you say too much in the officialdom, you will lose the demographic.

For example, at this moment, the hat of the most wise minister of the Han Dynasty is a bit overwhelming.

The problem is that the words have been spoken, and the road has been completed. More than 200 people in the entire hall are listening here. It is impossible for Liu Xie to cheat.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

The annoying voice sounded again, pulling Liu Xie back to the court from his wandering.

"Ah? Why...what's the matter?"

Jia Xu's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was still slow: "Your Majesty, the old minister asked Your Majesty what he said. Now Your Majesty wants to enthrone the title and reward, how should Cao Sikong, the most wise minister of the Han Dynasty, support him?"

Liu Xie wished he could pounce on him and bite the old thief to death.

"Doctor Jia's words are reasonable. Both generations of Cao's father and son have worked hard for the country, and have outstanding achievements. The country and the country are supported by Cao. Everyone knows that I can't treat you poorly? How could Cao Sikong be the most respectful minister of the Three Dukes and the highest position. I am now in the world?"

Jia Xu smiled slightly, without saying a word, but instead gave a wink at the side.

Jia Xu winked at the direction of his eyes and stood up, which was the servant of Zhonghua Xin.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I have a suggestion."

When Liu Xie saw Hua Xin getting up, he felt nervous!

It is because Hua Xin was a famous lackey under Cao Cao's tent in the past. When Cao Cao pointed out, Hua Xin would pick up the bones, even if the bones were thrown into the oil pan, Hua Xin would dare to jump in, and he would be willing to sacrifice himself for his master's heroic spirit.

"What advice do you have for me? Let me tell you?"

Hua Xin said, "I saw this dynasty. Since the Sikong Cao Gong, father and son have supported the government, spread virtues in all directions, loyalty and righteousness in the country, benevolence and the people. Even though the Zhou Dynasty was Lv Wang, Zhang Liang in the Han Dynasty was still hard to look back. Now the four directions are in turmoil and heroes are rising. The magical artifacts are in danger. The ministers meet. I hope Your Majesty will follow the way of Emperor Xiaojing and change the law and system with mountains, rivers and the country as the priority. The three Dukes restored the Prime Minister's system, and appointed Cao Gong as the Prime Minister, assisting Your Majesty in supporting the world. Supporting the country, the upper one is in line with the hearts of heaven and the lower one is in line with the people's opinions, and the world is very lucky! The ancestors are very lucky! The living beings are very lucky!"

When Cao Zhi heard this, his face changed slightly, but he did not speak out and let others say anything.

Liu Xie was so angry that his face was pale and pointed at Hua Xin tremblingly and said, "What did you say? Restore the old Prime Minister's system? It's ridiculous..."

Before Liu Xie could finish his words, he saw Wang Lang, the counselor, took the lead in the court and made his debut: "I will discuss it."

The Left Zhonglang Li Fu also said: "I agree with you"

Grand Historian Xu Zhi: "I agree."

“…………”

It was a scattered place, and more than 100 people stood up from the hall to discuss it.

Liu Xie's chest was fluctuating and glaring, and he stared at him in anger, but he was speechless in the face of such a powerful force.

***************************

After the dynasty was dispersed, Cao Zhi ignored the congratulations of the ministers, but went out of the palace to chase away Jia Xu, who was more advanced.

"Doctor Jia!"

Jia Xu turned around slowly, looked at Cao Zhi with a smile, and said, "Lord... no, what advice should the Prime Minister give?"

"Don't scream!" Cao Zhi hurriedly looked around and whispered: "Your Majesty hasn't agreed yet!"

Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "It's just a matter of time."

Cao Zhi sighed in a low voice and said, "Doctor Jia, we have agreed to abolish the three ministers and put them in the prime ministers, so we will put them aside before we can mention them, why are you today..."

Jia Xu was amused when he heard this: "Lord, you asked the wrong person. The deposed three dukes and reset the prime minister was proposed by Hua Xin. What does it have to do with me?"

Cao Zhi said angrily: "Don't shirk responsibility! If it weren't for your instructions, how dare Hua Xin make such a big statement?"

Jia Xu chuckled and said, "Lord, can't you see that the emperor is now restless and wants to seize power. If I don't give in, I'm afraid that he will make a fuss even more fierce in the future."

Cao Zhi shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is the co-lord of the world, and there is no fault in acting like this."

Jia Xu said seriously: "Lord, you want to be a loyal minister. It doesn't matter, but when you score! When is it now? In the turmoil! Yuan Shang and Liu Bei are all enemies. We are still wary of them. If the emperor comes out to fight for power at this time, it will only cause internal turmoil in Xudu and the country is in danger. If we don't say that it is us, even Xun Yu, who is loyal to the Han Dynasty, will not allow it... At this moment, we do not have the extra energy to focus on the emperor, and we must clearly stipulate the ownership of military and political power in Xudu."

Jia Xu paused and said, "The best way to determine the ownership of power is to establish a prime minister! The Prime Minister is the leader of all officials and is in charge of military and political affairs. At this moment, you must be in this position."

Cao Zhi: “…………”

***************************************

After Yuan Shang returned to Yecheng, he first collected the restaurant of two boys Yuan Mai and Deng Ai, and then recruited the two boys into the army. He then recruited Yan Yuan and Wen Tu into the army as the chief lieutenant, and temporarily took charge of the safety tasks of the two boys.

An interesting episode appeared in it, which was to change Wentu's name.

Wen Chou Chou... To be honest, if this name was replaced by someone else, Wen Tu would have to draw his sword to the man!

But this name was from Yuan Shangqi, and Wen Tu had no choice but to thank him.

Yuan Shang also knew that this name was a bit...that's the case, so he didn't force Wen Tu Fei to change it. He still used the original name to the outside world. As for the name Wen Chou Chou, even if it is an alias, stage name, or nickname? Anyway, it has such a title, but it can't be erased.

Just like in Journey to the West, although Sun Wukong is the Monkey King, everyone knows that he has another title called Bimawen, which is the same truth.

After the new personnel arrangements were made, Yuan Shang began the next major plan.

Build a navy!

But establishing a navy army is not a trivial matter, and it requires convening all important officials to discuss it.

So, after returning to Hebei for the first court discussion, Yuan Shang introduced Gan Ning to the people present and told everyone about his intention to build a naval army.

The civil and military officials under the tent couldn't help but remain silent after hearing Yuan Shang's suggestion.

Among all the civil and military officials, the civil servants were headed by Ju Su, and the military generals were respected by Zhang He. Zhang He is now in charge of soldiers in Qingzhou, and everyone's eyes fell on Ju Su.

Ju Su was silent for a while before bowing and saying, "You are the lord, my subordinates... do not agree to the Xingjian Navy."

Yuan Shang was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect that Ju Shu would be the one who opposed his suggestion.

"Why?"

Ju Su thought for a while and said, "First of all, based on the current population situation in Hebei, it is not suitable to form a new army."

Yuan Shang said: "Why is it not suitable?"

Ju Su thought about his words and said, "When the old lord was alive, three lords were selected and most young men from Hebei were recruited into the army. This made Hebei more and more troops, with one million troops, and a huge force, but it also deteriorated the farming and labor services of the four prefectures. The number of farmers decreased, the taxes were heavy, and the military pay was very expensive... After the old lord left, the lord ascended the throne and ordered the simplification of the army, the number of soldiers was laid off, and the number of soldiers was withdrawn, which greatly weakened the military expenses and made the taxes relatively stable. Now, the four prefectures, including Liaodong

There are 742,511 households and 429,7642 households. The guards and soldiers stationed in various parts of our four prefectures, plus the regular army under the lord's full authority, have more than 390,000 soldiers, almost 11 people raising one person. Such households and military personnel will not delay the development of people's livelihood in Hebei, nor will the military pay expenses be too high because of too many enlistment... But at this moment, if the navy is recruited, the balance between the soldiers and households in the four prefectures will be changed, resulting in the unstable people's livelihood and agricultural affairs for a period of time."

Yuan Shang lowered his head and thought deeply when he heard this.

He knew that Ju Su's words were reasonable, but he knew that the current situation in the four prefectures in Hebei was much better than the late Han Dynasty he knew.

Because of Yuan Shang's invasion, although Yuan Shao still retreated in the Battle of Guandu, he was not defeated tragically, and there was no sign of blood being killed by Cao Cao!

In contrast, it is also because of Yuan Shang's invasion that the famous Battle of Red Cliff in history has not yet happened.

These two tragic disaster wars that were enough to shake the spine of the Middle Earth population have changed, making the population in Middle Earth still remained in a relatively optimistic situation. In addition, Yuan Shang changed the system of recruiting troops without restraint when Yuan Shao was alive, and retreated and farmed. In a few years, the Northland's appearance has changed greatly, the people's livelihood is abundant, and the people live in peace.

This is an excellent omen. Because the omen is good, Ju Su does not want to destroy it. He does not want to form a naval army for no reason and destroys the development momentum of Hebei. With the current strength of Hebei, raising a naval army can be maintained, but it will still delay people's livelihood! And for the current Yuan army, the naval army is equivalent to having a good meal and has no place to use.

Who is willing to spend money to support idle people?

Yuan Shang thought for a while and sighed: "Besides not being willing to shake the balance between people and households, what are the reasons?"

Ju Su stretched out his finger and said, "Secondly, spend money, form a navy army, use people, and use ships. Build thousands of warships, and how much labor and how much financial resources are spent, the lord will naturally know in his heart."

Gan Ning was anxious and said hurriedly: "When I came, my lord once promised me three million yuan, and I took out all the money..."

Ju Su shook his head and smiled, "What's the use of three million yuan?"

Yuan Shang thought for a while and said, "What else is there in addition to human money?"

Ju Shu said: "In addition to people and money, there must be water to establish a naval army! There are ships in the south and horses in the north and the east Wu, and there are natural barriers of the Yangtze River, which can be used to train troops. Although there is also the Yellow River here, the turbulent Yellow River is very different from the Yangtze River and cannot be trained at all. How should we choose a place for training troops?"

Around Ju Shu, Zheng Ji, who also brought one million yuan from Liu Bei in Jingzhou, stood up and said, "My lord is relieved. There is a method to use it. That is, dig a deep pit several miles south of Yecheng City, lead the Zhang River into it, become an artificial lake, and train sailors!"

Ju Su shook his head and said, "If it is true as Yuantu said, then this navy army will be destroyed!"

Zheng Ji was furious: "Mr. Ju, what do you mean? You deliberately couldn't get along with Mr. Ying, right? Come on, let's argue today..."

Ju Su sneered: "I'm still afraid that you, a villain, will not succeed?"

"Who are you talking about?"

"It's you who's talking about!"

“…………”

"Bang, bang, bang!" Yuan Shang slapped the table heavily and said coldly: "What? Are you going to commit old problems again?"

Zheng Ji and Ju Su lowered their heads and kept silent.

"If you dare to fight again, you will be fined! Deduct monthly salary!" Yuan Shang said viciously.

On the other side, Guo Tu hesitated for a moment and bowed, "Why would you like to ask your lord, what should I do if I am deducting all this month?"

"Then deduct it for the next month! I'll deduct it after I'm deducting my son!"

Everyone took a breath and began to think about how much they could drive each month.

Yuan Shang slowed down his spirit and continued to talk about the topic of the navy: "Yuantu, Mr. Gong and Mr. are right. The soldiers trained are not ideal. There are hyacinths on the Yangtze River, whirlpools and reefs, which are completely different from lakes."

Yuan Shang agreed with Ju Su's opinion, which he knew in later generations that Cao Cao had used Pang Ji's strategy in history.

Before the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao occupied the Central Plains. In order to expand his power south, he dug an artificial lake eight kilometers south of Tongque Tainan in Yecheng, trained sailors, and called this place Xuanwu Pond.

It was a very powerful thing, but it was too powerful. The Northern Army that came out of Xuanwu Pool was useless. When it came to Jiangdong Zhou Yu's troops, they were beaten to pieces. In the end, they were burned by a fire in the Chibi and destroyed them completely, shaking the foundation of Middle Earth. It is truly heroic.

"People, money, a place for training troops." Yuan Shang thought for a while and said, "The points raised by Mr. Ju are very correct. Yuan agrees very much, but there is also a solution."

Ju Su heard this and said, "What are the lords' solutions?"

Yuan Shang said: "The money issue, haven't I entrusted Deng Chang to you with a letter? Have you done the table? Tuoba Liwei and Tadun asked them to search for the countries westwards, looking for the golden sand, which has been filled with the national treasury. Have you done this?"
