When Liu He mentioned the Qin system, Jia Xu closed his mouth, lowered his eyelids, and stopped talking.

This is a very sensitive topic and is not convenient to argue in front of the emperor.

In order to save the nation and solve the stubborn problems of the Han Dynasty, the emperor used Liangzhou as the focus of appeasement, which has already made people suspect that they would follow the story of the Qin Dynasty. Restoring military merits is undoubtedly a sensation and suspicion, which makes the court face greater criticism.

So he never mentioned the word "military title".

Liu He believed that this was a military title, and that was Liu He's business and had nothing to do with him.

This method will help Liu Bei gather his civilian strength, solve the problem of insufficient troops, and fight against Yuan Shao, which is enough.

The tacit understanding between him and Liu Xie had long been between him and him, but he didn't understand it so clearly.

Liu Xie didn't even have to make a choice, but just made suggestions. In the face of life and death, Liu Bei ignored the Qin system or the Han system. If he received the acquiescent of the court, he would probably restore his military merits.

Once the military merits are promoted in Xuzhou and have obvious results, it will be easier to announce and promote them by the court.

Seeing that Jia Xu didn't speak, Liu Xie felt clearly in his heart and couldn't help but want to curse.

This old fox was so bad that it sparked the topic and aroused the debate. He shrank back himself, looking as if he was indifferent to the world.

"Please ask for a moment. I'm very good at it. Let me think about it again." Liu Xie also played Tai Chi and said to Zhao Yun and Tian Chou: "You may as well speak out directly, and those who speak are not guilty."

Zhao Yun and Tian Chou looked at each other and did not dare to express their opinions easily.

Liu Xie immediately changed the topic and talked about Cao Cao and Sun Ce.

Zhou Zhong resigned from the governor of Yuzhou. Yuan Shu was the mud that could not be supported by the wall, and the leader of the Guandong group was unlearn. Yuan Shao was very cautious in sending troops this time, and directly targeted Liu Bei, the weakest. If Cao Cao and Sun Ce were satisfied with protecting themselves and refused to send troops to reinforce, Liu Bei would undoubtedly be defeated.

Liu Xie actually didn't care whether Liu Bei would lose, otherwise he wouldn't have talked a lot five thousand miles away, and would have arrived at the front line long ago.

With strong force in hand, even if Sun Cao and Liu surrendered to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao unified Guandong, he was not nervous. On the contrary, he wanted to see how many people would support Yuan Shao to proclaim himself emperor, and then he would beat them all rightfully.

At that time, what else do you need to bargain? Those who are against the counter should be damned.

But he cannot express his opinion like this, and there must be performances that should be there.

Cao Cao's attitude is relatively easy to guess. Cao Ang listened to the wrong person in front of the emperor, and Henan is behind Cao Cao. Once the situation is wrong, Cao Cao can give up Yanzhou, retreat to Luoyang, and join forces with Zhang Ji and Dong Zhao, which is enough to make Yuan Shao unwilling to act rashly.

Sun Ce's attitude is not easy to guess. After Zhou Zhong resigned, it is difficult to say whether Sun Ce supports Yuan Shu, fights against Yuan Shao, or surrenders to Yuan Shao and kills Yuan Shu. Based on Sun Ce's family background and its inherent relationship with Yuan Shu, it seems that there is a greater possibility of supporting Yuan Shu.

No matter how bad he is, he can retreat to Jiangdong and rely on the advantages of the navy to stop Yuan Shao from crossing the river and observe the changes in the world.

The most difficult one is Liu Bei.

So in the end, the topic returned to how Liu Bei could stick to it.

Liu He strongly opposed military merit titles, but he could not find a better way.

The discussion did not get any satisfactory results, and Liu Xie decided to temporarily adjourn the meeting and discuss it later on a date.

After saying goodbye and leaving the tent, Liu He and Tian Chou walked side by side, sighing.

Tian Chou was also in a heavy mood, but he was not like Liu He, and he was quite peaceful.

"Do you want to hear my opinion?"

"What do you want to say?" Liu He smiled bitterly: "I may be confused by the authorities, but I, the authorities, know very well how much the Guandong people hate the tyrannical Qin. You may not know that starting from Xianyang, there is a great road that leads to Quxian by the East Sea. On the Qushan Mountain there, Qin Shihuang established a que, called Qin Dongmen."

"Take it seriously?" Tian Chou was surprised.

"It's true, but you can't see Qin Dongmen anymore."

Tian Chou was slightly stunned, then suddenly realized. "Does it be destroyed?"

"Yes, Chen She, shortly after Wu Guang's rebellion, Qin Dongmen was destroyed." Liu He looked around and lowered his voice. "The Qin army was dominated by Guanzhong people, but it was still hated by the Guandong people. The emperor used Xiliang troops as the main force, so what did the Guandong people think?"

Tian Chou suddenly laughed. "Gongheng, I have a question, maybe a little presumptuous."

"But it's okay."

"How many of the great families in Kanto today are descendants of the six countries? Or, how many nobles who were born in the six countries and had no worries about food and clothing, now have a family of aristocrats?"

Liu He was stunned, stopped, turned to look at Tian Chou, his scalp numb.

He realized a problem. If Liu Bei could not protect Xuzhou, or the Xuzhou tribes chose to support Yuan Shao, and the emperor would lead his troops to the east in the future, those tribes who supported Yuan Shao would not only face the deprivation of land, but also the punishment of the clan for being abducted, and the consequences would be even more serious.

Just like although Baotai was destroyed, the children of the six kingdoms were unable to restore the glory of their ancestors and be forgotten for everyone.

The Xuzhou tribe actually had no choice.

Liu He was even more anxious.

"After all, the emperor is not Qin Shihuang, and he does not want the Liang Jingshang to become a tiger and wolf army like the Qin army, so he has been promoting education, and wants to transform the tiger and wolf army into a king army. Otherwise, how could he stay here when Yuan Shao goes south?"

Liu He let out a breath slowly, and his tense mood finally relaxed a little.

"The Yang family of Hongnong is also a great clan, but the emperor can still appoint Yang Biao, Yang Xiu and his son. The Huang family of Jiangxia is also a great clan, and the emperor still gives Huang Yi a heavy responsibility. The Xun family of Yingchuan is a new rise. The emperor does not exclude them. Instead, he allows Xun Yu to be the kingly way and Xun You to be the army of Youyan..."

Tian Chou gave several examples in one breath and finally said: "The emperor has done his best. Shouldn't the Guandong clan make efforts to build peace together? If the emperor is ambitious and the Han Dynasty is the best in the world, the cavalry will go thousands of miles away, and the intestines and the cold are all in the inner counties. Wouldn't they have more land than those hundreds of hectares of land?"

Liu He sighed, and wanted to speak but stopped.

The next day, Liu He did not raise any objections and focused on how to deal with Yuan Shao's attack.

He worked with Yuan Shao for a long time and was aware of the factional struggles and the conflicts between civil and military under Yuan Shao.

After the meeting, Liu Xie ordered people to draft an edict, promising Liu Bei's promise to restore his clan and encourage Liu Bei to make contributions. In addition to the old sayings of how to gather troops, Liu Xie did not mention Jia Xu's suggestions, nor did he mention the three words "military merits" as well as the old words of how to gather troops.

These were provided by Zhao Yun to Liu Bei for reference in the form of private letters.

In addition to Zhao Yun’s private letter, there is also a letter written by Liu He to Wang Lang.

This letter is very long, with more than 3,000 words. Liu He not only explained in detail his original intention of abandoning Yuan Shao and returning to the court, but also mentioned the significance of the emperor's new policy. He hoped that Wang Lang could play the positive role of famous scholars and advised the Donghai clan to understand the situation and not be a mantis blocking the chariot.
