This is a big thing. For the Liu family, it is also a matter of life and death, so they dare not take it lightly, and Liu Yuanqiao dare not make up his mind easily.

Although this is only a matter of naming, in fact, it is related to their development in the next few decades, because since ancient times, there has been a habit that where you are granted, the future kingdom should take this as the country's name. For example, in the state of Qin, he was granted to Qin as the state of Qin.

The most persuasive is the later Liu Bang. He was granted to Hanzhong and called the king of Han. The later Dynasty was called the Han Dynasty.

In the later Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian established a dynasty called the Sui Dynasty because he was the Duke of Sui; Because Li Yuan was the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, the later dynasty became the Tang Dynasty, which means that if they were granted the title of king of the Han Dynasty, the later dynasty would basically have to be called the Han Dynasty.

There is no problem in calling the Han Dynasty. The problem is that there are too many dynasties called the Han Dynasty in history. What are the Western Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Southern Han Dynasty, the northern Han Dynasty, the former Han Dynasty and the later Han Dynasty? What should they be called before they can be distinguished from the dynasties in history?

If it is called the state of Qi, there are several names of Qi in history, and it is difficult to distinguish them. The dynasties with the name of Qi are also a couple, not a unified dynasty.

The statesmen who grew up in the land of China have a kind of unified thought since the Qin emperor unified the six countries. After the establishment of any dynasty, it must be a unified dynasty, which is the orthodoxy of the world.

When the Liu family considers its country name, they will also consider the same problem, that is, its legitimacy and legitimacy.

Both the Liu family and their sons have an idea that it is not suitable to take the Ming Dynasty as the substitute, govern the whole country and take Qi as the name.

These things are secondary. The really important thing is about their Zheng family. After a little report, Liu Bu immediately went straight to the point and said it, because Liu Bu understood the importance of this matter to their Liu family.

If the Zheng family defected, their advantages could be reversed immediately and they would fall into great difficulties.

Liu Yuanqiao had expected this. He said: "The overall view of celebration is becoming more and more extensive! As a father, the Zheng family has long been planned. The reason why the imperial court has not called the Zheng family's fleet to attack us up to now is mainly because the governor of Fujian has hostility to the Zheng family. As for how their hostility arises, it is because we bought off the governor's staff. They have been bad mouthing the Zheng family all the time The Jianguan government didn't trust the Zheng family. When the imperial court asked about the possibility of calling the Zheng family, it always said that the Zheng family was unreliable and unavailable. "

I see. After listening to this sentence, Liu Bu understood why the imperial court didn't use such a good military force of the Zheng family. It turned out that he wasn't working, but his father was already working. Liu Yuanqiao is worthy of the name of the eight sided Buddha. He is good at the work of heaven and earth in his sleeve. On the surface, he did a lot of things quietly, but secretly. Liu Bu can't help feeling heartfelt for his father I admire him. He thought of this move and hurried to remedy it by reminding people around him. His father had long expected and made targeted strategies.

Since the rebellion of the Liu family, the status of the Zheng family has become ambiguous. They are in laws of the Liu family. If they kill the Liu family according to the rules of the imperial court, they have to kill the Zheng family by the way.

However, the Zheng family is the largest force in the southeast and the strongest pirate king on the sea. The local government has no way to destroy him, but it is estimated that it will not be easy to use them. Even if the official has great wisdom and courage, people around him say that the Zheng family is unreliable and cannot be used. It is estimated that he does not dare to mess around because of the consequences It's too big.

Even the local government thinks that if the Zheng family is unreliable and unavailable, the imperial court will be even more afraid to use the Zheng family. They are afraid that they will start fighting on the battlefield, collude with each other, and cause more disaster.

This hand has heaven and earth in its sleeve. It can be called a very clever hand with skillful fighting force. Liu Bu can't help but praise that Jiang is still old and spicy. He said: "my father had expected it long ago, so I'm relieved."

Liu Yuanqiao said: "although he has done a lot for his father, such things should not last long. If the imperial court wins day by day, he will probably force him to oppose the Zheng family and destroy the Zheng family. But now the imperial court is in a bad situation. If the mountain is poor and the water is exhausted, he has no choice but to use the Zheng family exceptionally."

Liu bu also knew this. He knew that there was no eternal enemy in the world, only eternal interests. As long as the price was appropriate, the two sides could cooperate. What's more, the Zheng family had not sent troops to attack, because the imperial court had not given enough price. When the imperial court was not exhausted, he would not pay a big price.

Liu Bu said, "what should I do? If the price offered by the imperial court is appropriate, once the Zheng family sends troops, I will be in danger!"

Liu Yuanqiao asked, "what's the plan for celebrating?"

Liu Bu didn't hide and tuck in, so he said his views. This was Wang Wenjie's idea. Although it was very insidious, it was effective. It could alienate the relationship between the imperial court and the Zheng family, making it difficult for them to cooperate.

You should know that the imperial court is arrogant and superior, while the Zheng family is a little low self-esteem. After all, they are born as pirates. It is normal for the imperial court to despise them and suspect them. Once there is something to hold on to, deepen this suspicion and hatred, and make the two sides unable to cooperate, it will be better.

Liu Yuanqiao said: "at present, it can only be so, but the iron has to be hard. We still have to come up with a better way to deal with the current situation."

Liu Bu said: "on this point, I have a comprehensive plan and will convene all officials to discuss it in the near future."

Their father and son feel a little strange at this time, that is, they have successfully separated Shandong, become the largest local force, and all fight the imperial court on their own, but their identity is a little embarrassing.

Liu Yuanqiao still holds the post of governor Denglai and is in charge of the military and political affairs of Shandong.

Liu Bu was the marshal of the Shandong army, responsible for commanding all the troops of Liu Jiajun and fighting for him everywhere.

But their army has a bit of a wrong name, irregular name and bad words. To put it bluntly, they need a louder banner, which makes them more authoritative and appealing.

This makes Liu and his son realize that this matter has reached the point of urgency, and they must make a choice.

After discussing military affairs with his father, Liu Bu immediately transferred to the harem to meet his grandmother and Buddha.

Old Buddha is the supreme existence of the Liu family's harem. She is the one who dares to beat Liu Yuanqiao. No one dares to despise her.

Of course, Liu bu also really loved and respected this old woman, because he knew that this old woman's love for him was true. When he first came, the old lady said something that he would never forget. All gold and beauty were willing to buy it for him. Where can I find such a grandmother?

Liu Bu entered the temple. The old Buddha was drinking tea at leisure. His daughter-in-law Kong and two granddaughters were waiting on him.

Liu Bu stepped forward quickly, knelt on the ground, knocked his head three times and said, "see the old Buddha! I wish the old Buddha immortal happiness and longevity."

Seeing Liu Bu's return, the old Buddha couldn't close his mouth. He hurriedly asked him to come to him, touched his head, patted his shoulders and said, "it's darker and thinner, but it looks stronger. I should have suffered a lot outside?"

Liu Bu said, "how can you bear hardships? My grandson commands tens of thousands of troops, and there are people waiting in and out. What hardships can you eat?"

The old Buddha said, "look at what you said, why are you thin? It's getting dark? It's good to be at home for a thousand days, but it's hard to go out for half a day. You've been fighting outside and your horses are tired. Now that you're back, take a good rest."

"Yes," preached Liu. He got up and his two wives, Zheng zining and Chen Yuanyuan, sat next to him.

Liu Bu just saluted his stepmother Kong and stopped talking.

His two wives are now pregnant. Chen Yuanyuan has been eight months and is about to come to dinner. Zheng zining's stomach is bulging. His wife and concubine are pregnant, which makes Liu Bu feel lucky.

A prosperous population means a prosperous family. Liu Bu has seen a dream of Red Mansions, in which the governments of the four major countries are very powerful. However, one thing I think is a little bleak, that is, there are no newborns at all, and even if there are, they are not enough to support, indicating that their decline is unstoppable.

Seeing the familiar faces of the two ladies, Liu Bu was very pleased and happy. The two ladies quickly saluted him, which is due. Today's Liu Bu is no longer the second ancestor of that day. He only knows food, drink and fun. He is the commander of thousands of troops.

In fact, half of his commander-in-chief was obtained through his family, but Liu Bu really proved himself on the battlefield. Since he started the army, although Liu Bu did not personally attack and kill famous generals, he can achieve brilliant results every time he fought. He has fought so many battles, and he is no better than any commander in Daming, Any general is inferior.

It can be said that Liu Bu proved himself with his strength. At the end of the imperial dynasty, when the world was in chaos, even the strong, who everyone worshipped and feared. His two wives were full of respect for him, which is due. In particular, Zheng zining himself was a very arrogant person, but after her husband showed that he was stronger than her, She also became a little weak and submissive.

When Liu Bu saw the two ladies, he was very happy, especially when he saw that they were all fat and full of belly. Obviously, life was very moist and good, which made him more happy. Men worked hard outside to make women enjoy happiness at home, which would be meaningful.
