Two hundred and twenty-one Turks march (11)
The fact that he was the King of Han was actually the Tang Dynasty testing Liu Shan to see what Liu Shan was going to do.
Liu Shan didn't need to think about it, and he knew that the King of Han was not as simple as the surface. He seemed to be glorious, but in fact he was nothing at all. Liu Shan was not the kind of person who wanted nothing for the sake of face. In ancient times, there were many people who had been conspired by the court and were finally eliminated after they were granted kingship. Some people even put pressure on the court to make the court a king, and finally killed by the court. There were many such issues of strength and face in ancient times.
Liu Shan deeply understood one truth: strength is everything, strength determines everything. As long as you have strength, even if you don’t have any official position, others dare not underestimate you. Just like Liu Shan just went to Liangzhou, he didn’t have any official position, but with thousands of brothers who followed him, Liu Shan dared to offend the powerful people in Liangzhou. Just like at this time, Liu Shan held hundreds of thousands of people and hundreds of thousands of people in his hand, and even the eunuch who did not kneel when he saw the imperial edict could only turn a blind eye. Liu Shan could not believe that the emperor really did not kneel when he saw the imperial eunuch. This statement was naturally a helpless act of eunuchs who passed the imperial eunuchs. Of course, eunuchs who passed the imperial eunuchs were not afraid of being known to the emperor. Liu Shan would not be stupid enough to tell the emperor that those soldiers had no chance to see the emperor. As for eunuchs who passed the imperial eunuchs, unless he was crazy.
However, at this time, Liu Shan obviously had an attitude and reply to the court's appointment as King of Korea. No matter what the court meant, the most urgent task was that Liu Shan must have a clear attitude towards this matter.
Liu Shan asked everyone who was kneeling up on the spot to assume that he would reward him with the court. Then Liu Shan asked someone to take out a pair of Yu Ruyi from it and gave it to the eunuch who was passing the order. When the eunuch saw Yu Ruyi, his face seemed to be a flower blooming. After saying a few words of thanks, he finally hugged the pair of Yu Ruyi tightly into his arms, which was even more close than holding his own grandson. Of course, eunuchs would never have any grandson.
"Come on, get another 500 taels of silver and reward them to the soldiers who work as a servant." After rewarding the leaders of the team, Liu Shan did not forget the soldiers brought by the eunuchs. These people also wanted to give some benefits. This is what the saying goes, hush money. After taking this money, they will naturally not talk nonsense after they go back. Of course, some people also think that they will talk nonsense, or they will not take the money.
This is not afraid of this. Killing a few small soldiers is very simple for Liu Shan at this time. Moreover, those who go back will only say that those soldiers were infected with wind and cold on the road. As for how the powerful soldiers were infected with wind and cold, no one will ask, the lives of a few small soldiers are nothing in the eyes of some people. This is the fact. Not to mention in the monarchical feudal society, even in the era when Liu Shan lived, in the eyes of some big figures, ordinary people are just equivalent to the life of an ant. Although countless people are clamoring that human life is as great as the sky, what is the fact? The fact is naturally clear in the heart. As for someone who has taken the hushed silver and has to say nonsense, there are naturally people who have big heads to deal with them. Liu Shan understands that his pair of jade Ruyi will never be given for free.
"Why don't you thank His Highness the King of Han for the reward? The eunuch has led the lead to worshipping the downstairs of Liu Shan. The guards brought by the eunuchs around him all over the place. Everyone kept saying thanking the King of Han for the reward.
Seeing that no one refused to give up his reward, Liu Shan asked everyone to take care of the people from the palace. Liu Shan didn't have much time to accompany these people at this time. As for what happened later, Liu Shan was not worried at all. The eunuch took his own things, and the things he gave were of great value. I guess he had been a poor person in the palace for a lifetime and could not get much reward silver. The talented palace maids and even concubines in the palace gave him a reward of more than a hundred taels of silver at a time. Liu Shan gave a pair of jade Ruyi, and it was given to him by the countries of the Western Regions. Although this thing was not as priceless as it was, it was already a huge fortune for the palace servants who served in the early Tang Dynasty. If he took his own things, he had to do things for himself. This is the truth since ancient times, and no one must follow this principle.
Liu Shan left the place where the Tang envoy was located and hurried to the place where King Xia was waiting. Liu Shan didn't know what King Xia meant when King Xia came. However, King Xia at this time was related to the people and military spirits in the entire Hebei region, but Liu Shan did not dare to be careless.
"I have let King Xia wait for a long time. There are really some small things ahead. I hope King Xia will forgive me." As soon as Liu Shan entered the place where King Xia was waiting, King Xia stood up from the place where he was sitting. With this action, Liu Shan understood that King Xia had been waiting for him. Liu Shan said a sorry word, let King Xia sit down, and had already ordered someone to prepare new tea.
"It seems that it is not a trivial matter when you hear your people say that there is an envoy from Li Tang to come to you." These days, King Xia also saw Liu Shan doing things in Hebei. When treating prisoners of war, Liu Shan did not have any place to abuse, and even gave Hebei soldiers a lot of freedom. King Xia even felt that the prisoners of Hebei, as prisoners of war, were better than when they were under his own hands. In fact, this is true. When he set out from Liangzhou, Liu Shan had been using various methods to get military rations on the road, and at this time he finally used it in Hebei.
Otherwise, how could Liu Shan afford more than 100,000 prisoners? In terms of treating civilians, Liu Shan had nothing to say. Of course, there were traitors and evil bullies in this way. Apart from these people, Liu Shan really had nothing to say about civilians. It is not an exaggeration to treat people like his sons on Liu Shan. In fact, this is also very normal. Liu Shan has rarely had that very serious class concept. He treats civilians much better than the landlord class in the early Tang Dynasty at this time.
Therefore, King Xia's attitude towards Liu Shan has improved a lot. As Liu Shan said, King Xia is actually a peasant and a powerful man who came out of the peasant uprising and has deep feelings for the peasant. Naturally, Liu Shan, who treats farmers well, also likes the eyes of King Xia, and when he speaks to Liu Shan, the smell of King Xia's gunpowder becomes much weaker.
