    "Ethnicity?" Liu Xie was puzzled: "Does it refer to the common people's families?" Liu Bian was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that the word "ethnicity" was a bit advanced.  He thought for a moment and nodded: "You are right. The world is one family, but this family is not just my Liu family, but also all the people in the world, all the descendants of Yan and Huang." Liu Xie seemed to understand but he still nodded.  nodded.  The concept of the world as one family is not new. Confucianism has always had the belief in a unified world, and there are similar words in the "Book of Rites".  Although he felt that what Liu Bian said was somewhat different from what was written in the book, he did not delve into it.  He knew that Liu Bian had read little, and it would be embarrassing if he couldn't answer the question.  But Zhuge Liang took a step forward, raised his hands and asked, "Your Majesty considers the world as one family. Which family should be treated like human beings?" Liu Bian looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise.  Zhuge Liang was very cautious. After reading the edict, Zhuge Liang often appeared in front of him, but rarely spoke and would not take the initiative to ask questions.  Today's situation was a bit special, and it seemed to have touched him.  He thought for a while and didn't answer directly.  Although Zhuge Liang was young, he was the next generation Confucian leader favored by Chen Ji, and his status in history was indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.  Such a precocious genius would never ask questions casually.  "What do you think?" Liu Bian asked.  Zhuge Liang hesitated for a moment, then plucked up the courage and said, "I think that the imperial court is the head of the family. I wonder if your majesty thinks so?" The atmosphere around him suddenly solidified.  This sentence may seem light, but it has profound meaning inside.  Liu Bian said that the world is one family, so it naturally involves the question of who is the parent.  According to common understanding, the Liu family is of course the head of the family. Only in this way can the Liu family legitimately occupy the top position and enjoy the most generous treatment.  But, Zhuge Liang said.  The imperial court should be the head of the family, not the Liu family. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Right?  You can say it's right or you can say it's wrong.  The Liu family are the parents.  That is the world.  The imperial court is the head of the family, which means the world is for the public.  Only the emperor is a member of the family, and no one else in the Liu family is.  Because it was a custom in the Han Dynasty that close relatives of the royal family could be crowned princes, but they could not hold important positions in the court. On the contrary, those clans with distant blood lines could serve in the court.  However, in most cases, they regarded themselves as scholar-officials rather than members of the royal family.  so.  To put Zhuge Liang's meaning into a more popular statement, it means sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.  Zhuge Liang lowered his head and cupped his hands, looking humble and persistent.  Liu Bian looked at the faces with different expressions around him and laughed.  "Yes, the court is the parent. So, Kong Ming, I want to ask you a question: As a parent, what is the most important task?" "Maintain family harmony and everyone respects and loves each other." "That's not right." Liu  Bian shook his head: "As a parent, it is important to maintain family harmony and everyone respects and loves each other, but this is not the first priority." "I dare to ask your Majesty for advice." "If there is no safety, everything is precarious. Respect and love each other.  What's the point?" Zhuge Liang was stunned: "Then your Majesty thinks that the first priority of parents is to train warriors and be ready to fight with others?" "If you forget to fight, you will be in danger. What you are talking about is only one aspect. Warriors are not only needed.  , but also requires wisdom. This wisdom is not only about how to make oneself stronger, but also about how to make the family stronger. Only those who can make the country rich and powerful.  A scholar-bureaucrat is suitable to be an important official in the imperial court. There is no conflict between being strong on the outside and using force on the inside. It will inevitably lead to wishful thinking and self-deception. "Zhuge Liang bowed and said:  "Your Majesty is wise, I am ashamed of myself." Liu Bian smiled.  He knew Zhuge Liang would agree with him, because that's the kind of person Zhuge Liang is.  He is not the kind of pedantic scholar. On the contrary, he hates the kind of scholar who ruins the country with empty talk. He is a man of action - although he is a little greedy for power.  "Kong Ming, you have extraordinary wisdom and will become a great person in the future. However, I would like to remind you that this national path of spiritual practice cannot be completed by one person. To be a wise parent, not only you must  If you have a high level of knowledge, you must also be able to cultivate qualified successors and pass on this cause from generation to generation. Otherwise, how can you ensure peace for thousands of years if the people are gone?" Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows thoughtfully and turned his head.  He glanced at Liu Xie.  Liu Bian did not argue with him about these issues anymore. He asked Cai Yan to write to Cai Yong and gather some people in Luoyang who had studied ancient characters and history and were willing to be lonely and devote themselves to learning to come to Yizhou to study together the upcoming discoveries.  This big tomb.  Cai Yan felt that Liu Bian was making a fuss out of a molehill. It was just a tomb, so there was no need to mobilize troops.  Liu Bian doesn¡¯t think so.  Based on his past life experience and his extraordinary six senses, he knew what was going on under his feet.There is something buried in this mound.  To put it more seriously, once it appears, the ancient books hidden in Qin Shihuang's mausoleum may not be as complicated as the things in this tomb.  For scholars in the Central Plains, this is likely to be an earth-shattering discovery.  They may be able to find the origin of the phoenix civilization and move their exploration one step further.  Because this is Sanxingdui, a civilization site that has caused countless speculations.  ¡­ At the end of June, Zhang Liao, the general who conquered the west, returned to Liangzhou and immediately met with Lu Zhi, the governor of Liangzhou, and informed him of the upcoming troops to the Western Regions.  Lu Zhi was shocked: "Didn't you say that we would send troops after pacifying Shandong? Why send troops now?" Zhang Liao smiled and relayed Liu Bian's meaning.  "Although Shandong is not at peace, the overall situation has been decided. Wei General Xu Huang has arrived in Runan and is about to encircle and annihilate Yuan Shu's troops. Yuan Shaonan's escape route has been cut off. Now there is only one way to go to the sea. He can still hold on until  When? Your Majesty will return to Guanzhong soon to collect Jingyi's grain and Liang's horses to fully supply the war in the Western Region." Lu Zhi remained silent.  "The current conditions are indeed not very mature, but the Xianbei people's invasion of Guishuang is overwhelming. If we don't hurry up and regain the Western Regions and be prepared to fight again with the Xianbei people, in the future the Xianbei people will become more powerful and invade the Western Regions, and we will be even more vulnerable.  Passive. Instead of doing this, it is better to act first and incorporate the Western Region into the territory of the Han Dynasty before the Xianbei people control Guishang. Lu Zhi smiled bitterly: "In my opinion, this Xianbei man is your Majesty's Western Region."  Be the vanguard of the expedition." Zhang Liao smiled and said nothing.  Lu Zhi had no choice but to know that Liu Bian was planning carefully and it was inevitable, so he asked: "General, how many troops are you planning to recruit for the western expedition?" "Three thousand elite cavalry, five thousand civilians, plus the accompanying merchants, ten thousand people are enough."  "Lu Zhi was shocked: "Three thousand elite cavalry want to regain the Western Region?" Zhang Liao nodded: "The Western Region is not as difficult as the Central Plains. The supply of food and supplies is too large, so the preparation time is long, and the burden of transporting to Liangzhou is also heavy.  We must use elite troops to reduce the waste in transportation as much as possible, and bring business travelers with us in order to provide military pay with commercial taxes and at the same time induce the countries in the Western Regions to reduce resistance. " Lu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.  Liangzhou has a small population. If too many troops are sent, the transportation of thousands of miles will be a big problem that cannot be solved.  Now that Zhang Liao plans to send elite troops into the Western Region, the burden will be much smaller. It is still within the range that Liangzhou can bear, and there is no need to call in support from other states.  It seems that Liu Bian has made a lot of preparations in order to reduce the resistance to sending troops.  Now, Zhang Liao only needs the approval of him, the governor of Liangzhou, to make the trip.  "Okay." Lu Zhi nodded.  Zhang Liao exchanged looks with Zhao Yun and Qu Yi and smiled knowingly.  ¡­ Liu Bian returned to Guanzhong and joined forces with Niu Fu in Hanzhong.  After seeing the ceremony, Lu Bu complained.  He expressed his incomprehension that Liu Bian would put elites like Wolf Cavalry and Leopard Cavalry in Guanzhong and leave god-level generals like him and Guan Yu idle.  In the Battle of Yizhou, Zhang Liao broke into Shu County from Wudu, and his troops almost reached the gates of Chengdu. Liu Bian attacked from the east front, defended the pass with a drum, and dominated the world. Only Niu Fu's army on the northern front did not make any achievements.  , In fact, the strength of this army is the strongest.  Liu Bian smiled and said: "The edict ordering the expedition was issued very early, and no one stopped you from sending troops. You are walking slowly. Who is to blame?" Lu Bu complained: "Your Majesty, Guanzhong and Yizhou  There are thousands of miles of plank roads in between. We have done our best to reach Hanzhong in such a short time. But we didn't expect that His Majesty would conquer Yizhou so quickly, so the trip was in vain." "Okay, don't do it.  Complaining. General Zhengxi is about to go to the Western Regions. Are you interested in going there?" Lu Bu's eyes suddenly lit up and he was overjoyed.  "Your Majesty, can you really allow me to send troops to the Western Region?" "Of course." Liu Bian said with a smile: "The Western Region is thousands of miles away and must be fought quickly. Only the wolf cavalry who are tough and capable can adapt to such a war. Although General Zhengxi has many  The Qiang people are good at fighting, but I can't pin all this war on the Qiang people, so I want to mobilize the wolf cavalry to march westward. However, Wenyuan used to be your old army, are you willing to obey his command? " Lu Bu was immediately dumbfounded.  .  Liu Bian was right. Zhang Liao was once his old subordinate, but now he became the general who conquered the west and became his superior officer.  What can we do?  "If you don't want to go, I understand. I can let you stay in Guanzhong and then go out with me. I will let Yunchang lead a thousand wolf cavalry to go out." Liu Bian paused and saw Lu Bu heaving a sigh of relief.  Then he said: "However, I am worried that if Yunchang makes meritorious service in the Western Regions and gets promoted" Lu Bu suddenly became anxious.He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to accept Wenyuan's command, go to the Western Regions, and make meritorious deeds on the battlefield." "Can you live in harmony with Wenyuan?" "Your Majesty" Lu Bu said through gritted teeth: "I can definitely do it." "  A man speaks as soon as he says it" "It's hard to catch a horse!"
