From the end of the Warring States period to the unification of the world by the First Emperor to the maintenance of the integrity of the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty for more than 400 years, the thinking of "great unification" should have been basically implanted in the minds of the elites of all dynasties.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world collapsed and fell into a division that lasted for more than a hundred years.
At the beginning, the Sima clan was really capable of producing many people, but because there were too many capable people, it led to the struggle for power and profit within the family, and they continued to lead the Hu people south, before the Hu people were used as slaves to supplement labor, but during the Yongjia Rebellion, they began to arm the Hu people to fight for themselves.
Sima's madness can be seen from his family background, but it is also because of their madness that the Hu people became the lords of the Central Plains.
Since the Central Plains fell into the hands of the Hu people, Sima Rui of the Sima clan moved south and established the imperial court again with nothing but his name.
Because the imperial court was established by the family and the powerful, and because the Sima family has no capital in addition to the name, it is not the Sima family that really governs the country, the Sima family is just a signboard, and it is actually the gate valve and the family who can take the idea to govern the country, and the history has also reached the process of the state gate valve having the final say.
To talk about it, the gate valve and the family govern the country, and the emperor has become a signboard, which is very much like a constitutional monarchy, but this "advanced" system did not make the imperial court strong again, but ignored the fall of the Central Plains and the repeated struggle for power and internal strife.
The small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty that migrated to the south of the Yangtze River still does not know how to repent, no matter how you look at it, there is no sign of recovering the Central Plains, some people who want to devote themselves to making Jinou complete again, they are constantly exploring and pursuing, if there is no Liu Yan's rise, there will not be a very good choice, but Liu Yan was born.
Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, capable people have formed a consensus that "the monarch chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king".
This has become a rule of the intelligent class.
Capable people have a kind of reserve, even if they are not proud, and they are certainly more willing to serve the wise and powerful king, and in the process grow their own family, they can also leave a lot of marks in history.
It is precisely the thinking of "the king chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king", those people south of the Yangtze River do not have to be loyal to the royal family, but can be loyal to the gate lord or the head of the family; Some people in the Central Plains are either happy after a twist, maybe it is Ai Ai, and they are loyal to the Hu monarch anyway.
The national policy of the Han Kingdom is chaotic, and it seems that there is no too clear goal, which is a situation that can be seen at a glance by those who have a heart.
If it is possible to say that the national policy is chaotic and there is no clear goal, then what if the national policy is stable and has a clear goal The more capable people are, the greater their ambitions, and they will always assume that they will be assisted by someone, and the person who will be assisted will definitely be able to soar to the sky.
And that "someone" has the value of auxiliary, but it can't be like the mud of the Sima royal family.
Liu Yan actually recruited Xie Ai more than once, not only Xie Ai, but anyone who looks like a person who can do things, will communicate according to different courtesies, and even directly solicit them. has had the experience of being concealed or explicitly recruited before, Xie Ai asked Liu Yan about his ambitions, and then expressed his willingness to serve, and there was really no abruptness.
Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, and naturally showed a look of great joy, and had to say "Who has so-and-so, who are you, who are mine", and then some physical expressions that look close, the most popular is to run over without even having time to put on shoes.
"Ai has not been able to serve the king recently."
Xie Ai must also be very moved, and then explain the reason: "Wait for Ai to finish the errand for my king, and bid farewell to my king and come to the king's command again." ” "It should be, it should be" Liu Yan was vigilant, and when he met the envoys of Zhang's Liangguo, Zhang Zuo behaved very abnormally, and Xie Ai, who had not expressed anything about the solicitation before, suddenly came out like this.
He asked, "Since you are about to become a king, if there is anyone who can help, you can do everything." ” Xie Ai hesitated for a while and said: "My king is exploring the Western Regions, his heart is not in the east, Fu Hong is already a threat to enter Longxi, and the threat of re-entering the North is even more serious.
My king sent his ministers here, one for the affairs of the Qin State, and the other for Fu Hong. ” Liu Yan's vigilance was higher, and he already hesitated in his heart, often saying that "if you treat him as a countryman, you will repay him with the ability of a countryman", so he had to hesitate to let Xie Ai do his errand well, to prove that the importance he said earlier was not a lie.
"The state of Qin was established with the support of our king, and the original intention was to be able to serve as an eastern barrier when our king opened up the Western Regions, so he did not hesitate to provide assistance."
Xie Ai looked reasonable, and after a pause, he said again: "Now that the King of Qin has gone to the country and wants to merge the whole country into your side, my king has clearly said that you will not get involved in Guanzhong in the near future, and it is almost visible that Fu Hong has recaptured Guanzhong in Longxi." ” Zhang's Liangguo really did not have much military power in the east, and the main military town was Jincheng.
Longxi is a very broad general name, the west and northwest were occupied and controlled by the Zhang clan earlier, and from here they also supported Zu Li's Northern Expedition.
Fu Hong entered Longxi, and is currently only active in the east and south of Longxi, but seeing that he sent troops to the north, there is no reason to let go of the north and west of Longxi, especially the Liangguo of the Zhang clan does not have many garrisons in those places at all.
"My king can't draw troops to the east, not to mention the newly occupied part of the north, I'm afraid Longxi can't be saved."
Xie Ai stopped, looked at Liu Yan, whose face was full of weirdness, first smiled, and then said: "If my king wants to maintain the existence of the Qin State, he will reinforce a large number of ordnance and grain. did not hesitate to go to Guanzhong to meet the King of Qin in person, which shows how determined our king is.
But I don't know if King Qin's determination to join you is heavy."
There is no doubt that the Han State and the Zhang Liang State have some common interests, but the two countries are too far apart, and the middle is previously separated by the Ran Qin State, and the interaction is on how to help the Ran Qin State.
How determined Ran Min is to join the Han State depends on how much he moved himself and his family members to the Han realm, it should be said that his determination is still very great, especially the matter of migrating people from Guanzhong has been done for nearly a month.
Zhang Jun wouldn't have been unaware of what Ran Min had done, or he wouldn't have been so anxious.
He probably had no hope in persuading Ran Min to make a breakthrough in retreating, that is, to formally reach an alliance with the Han State in the future, and cooperate with Fu Hong in the east and west.
"You should do what the king does."
Liu Yan, who had figured out some things, looked at Xie Ai with a smile and said, "The widow said, I will definitely help you if I can help you, so don't say those words again." ” Xie Ai, who still wanted to play more, was stunned for a while, and then took a deep breath and said: "Maintaining the existence of the Qin State is beneficial to the Liang State, and it is also beneficial to the Han State.
He looked at Liu Yan solemnly, and first saluted before asking: "When the minister said that, he thought that he thought that you would probably do more harm than good if you accepted the whole country of Qin. ” Liu Yan still smiled: "Let's talk about the point." ” "King Qin is by no means a person who is willing to be subordinate, and he has the experience of commanding the whole country."
Xie Ai seemed to be out of the way, so he simply understood: "The benefits of maintaining the existence of the Qin State to the Liang State are greater than those of the Han State, but if you accept Ran Min and his subordinates to join you, no matter how you settle them, I am afraid that civil strife will not be avoided in the future." ” "Oh."
Liu Yan had to ask: "You are now thinking about it from the position of a widow" Xie Ai nodded heavily, spread out and said: "Ran Min did his best to serve Shijie, but he didn't hesitate at all.
He may have the same ideal of recovering the Han family with you, but he also did not kill the Miao descendants of the Han family, he was too complicated and did things too casually.
Will he defect to you when he has no other choice, or will he take his men with him?
Presumably you have already figured out how to settle it, he may have forbearance at first, no matter how kind you treated, before the authority is lost, you can't help but be resentful in your heart for a long time, under the indignation" Liu Yan and a group of civil and military personnel have already communicated with each other about these things, and in fact, they have come to a similar conclusion to Xie Ai.
Therefore, except for Ji Chang, a person who has no discipline at all, who chooses to follow and support Liu Yan no matter what he does, the opposition is the majority.
Liu Yan didn't ask anything else, only asked: "The help you want to be a widow is to maintain the existence of the Qin State and do your best for King Liang."
Xie Ai shook his head and said, "Liang Guo invested, it can be a strong horse in the Western Regions, or a treasure, I ask you to send troops to attack Fu Hong."
And then whether you agree or not, my king will swear an alliance with you, that's all. ” "Is it an oath" Liu Yan knew very well what this meant, that is, an alliance of equal status.
He also had to ask: "Then King Liang sent an envoy to the small court" "It is to confirm whether the incense of the ancestral temple Yanhuang Temple is extinguished and lit by itself as rumored."

Xie Ai looked at Liu Yan strangely, and said, "You also established a place of sacrifice, but the incense was lit by yourself, and the same is true of the Ruojin room."
Liu Yan immediately refuted: "Nonsense, the incense on the widow's side is attracted from Guanzhong."
Xie Ai hurriedly confessed, but his eyes were full of suspicion, and in addition to suspicion, there was also caution.
Maybe in the eyes of modern people, it is just incense, and it doesn't matter if it's real or fake, but nowadays people don't see it that way, they value it to the point that they can lose their lives.
Liu Yan's eyes didn't blink, his face was full of justice, but the words that came out of his mouth were not like what a king could say: "Which bastards spread rumors and said that the incense in the Yanhuang Temple of Taishan was lit by themselves." ” "It's from the south."
Xie Ai's expression also had to be weird, and he said again: "The south side also said that the incense has not been broken, it is your side" There is no doubt that it is not fighting for the right thing, the war did not fight public opinion first, regardless of whether it is true or false, anyway, it will be determined that it is true first.
That's all about fighting for some people's hearts to belong.
Dividing line It's really too tired, allowing honor to take a breather.
