"There is no one in the world to separate itself from the imperial court any more. We have revived the Han Dynasty and calmed the world. From now on, peace in the sea will be restored."
"Oh! Peace
All the officers and men of the Han Army cheered loudly and threw their weapons on the ground, cheering with joy. From now on, the world is peaceful. What else do they do with weapons?
"Clean up the battlefield, Zhang jaw led 50000 troops north to pacify Qingzhou, Ma Chao followed me to sweep Huainan, and then returned to Luoyang to report victory to the emperor!" Liu Ye shouts.
"Here it is
Cao Cao killed himself, Cao's army naturally became a loose sand, facing the Han Army's step by step, there was no way to resist. Zhang Xi led the army of 50000, and in less than half a month, the whole territory of Qingzhou was pacified, and Huainan was also occupied by the Han army. Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, Xia Houdun and other senior generals of Cao Cao's clan died one after another, while Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao surrendered.
Only Xiangping City, because it was far away in Liaodong, was far away, so it took more than a month to learn that Cao Cao had committed suicide. Cao's army had no fighting spirit. Under the fierce attack of Xu Huang and Lv Bu, the city was broken and Xia Hou was still missing. LV Qian led the remnant Cao army to surrender.
In November of the 15th year of Jian'an, the world was finally completely calm.
As for the puppet emperor Liu Bian in xiapi City, he was abolished as the Marquis of Pengcheng, who was specially supervised by someone. Although he was not worried about food and clothing, he would never want to leave Pengcheng for half a step from now on.
Luoyang.
"Minister Liu Ye paid his respects to his majesty and led his army to fight. After five months, he finally won the victory, relying on his Majesty's heavenly power." Liu Ye, dressed in a crown robe, reports to Liu Xie Chen, who is sitting on the dragon's throne.
Liu Xie nodded: "the Duke of Qin worked hard and made great contributions to eliminate the Cao thieves. His contribution to rejuvenating the Han Dynasty was no less than that of liuhou and Huaiyin marquis. Thirty million pieces of silk
"Thank you very much, but I would like to give all these money to the soldiers who died for the great man of Zhongxing. Please allow me." Liu Ye asks again.
Liu Xie said with no expression: "since it has been given to the Duke of Qin, he can do whatever he wants."
"Thank you." Liu Ye smiles and retreats.
At this time, Jia Xu suddenly came out and said, "the Duke of Qin has conquered the Han Dynasty. His great contribution is no less than that of Duke Zhou. Please make the general king!"
As soon as this was said, all the civil and military officials in the whole court were silent and looked at Jia Xu in surprise.
It's not a small matter. Liu Ye has gradually become a marquis and a duke in recent years, and now he wants to be a king again. To know that Wang Jue is not so far away from the throne of the emperor.
Liu Xie was silent for a while and said slowly, "Duke Qin has just been granted the title of Duke of Qin, and he is going to be the king at once. Isn't it too fast?"
"Your Majesty's words are not correct. If you have made great achievements without reward, how can the talents of the world serve your majesty?" Jia Xu insisted: "please don't chill the heart of meritorious officials."
Xun you finally couldn't help it. He snorted and left. Before he left, he took a deep look at Liu Ye: "general, what a great general!"
Liu Ye and Xun you look at each other. Xun you made an indelible contribution to him at that time. However, in recent years, the distance between them has been getting farther and farther away, because their ideas have been in conflict.
When Xun you goes out, the rest of them are still. Either they are Liu Ye's staunch supporters and belong to his lineage, or they have nothing to do with themselves. They dare not offend Liu Ye at all. They have no choice but to watch the development of the situation without saying a word.
Liu Xie hoped that a minister could come forward and denounce Jia Xu. However, after looking forward to it for a long time, one finally stood up.
"The Duke of Qin has made contributions to the country. Please raise him to be king of Qin, so that people in the world will praise his Majesty's holiness." Guo Jia got up and said.
"That's it! The Duke of Qin has been fighting for his country for dozens of years. If he is not awarded a reward, will the officers and men be convinced? Don't be cold, your majesty Yu Jin also stood out.
"Your Majesty, please make Duke Qin king of Qin!"
"Qin Gonggong, your majesty should be awarded."
At this time, the three gongs and nine Qing ministers and numerous important officials of the imperial court came forward one after another and asked Liu Xie to make Liu Ye king of Qin.
Liu Xie looked at all the courtiers in front of him, almost all of them stood out and couldn't help but show a sad smile.
He weakly waved his hand: "accurate."
In December of the 15th year of Jian'an, Emperor Liu Xie personally granted Liu Ye the title of king of Qin, and Yongliang and Liangzhou were both fiefdoms of Qin Kingdom.
In February of the 17th year of Jian'an, Emperor Liu Xie was seriously ill, bedridden for more than a month, and finally died. However, Liu Xie had only a princess but no prince. It became a big problem who should inherit the Han Dynasty.
The ministers remonstrated and asked Liu Ye, king of Qin, as the emperor's son. The Empress Dowager immediately allowed him to ascend the throne.
Finally, Liu Ye ascended the throne in Luoyang and granted amnesty to the whole country.
Liu Ye, wearing the Dragon Robe crown and looking at the ministers under his seat, has an indescribable feeling in his heart. After decades of hard struggle, he finally arrived at this day, which is a long time away.In a trance for a while, Liu Ye quickly responded and said, "I declare that from now on, the tax rate of the Han Dynasty will be set at 30% tax rate, and no tax will be added. It will be recorded as an ancestor's instruction and will be observed by future generations."
Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang, Yu Jin, Zhang jaw, Ma Chao and other civil and military officials said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"
After the news spread, people all over the world cheered and cheered. Originally, the 30% tax was already very little. Moreover, the new emperor decided not to add any tax. You should know that the emperor is very constitutional, and the emperor has no joking words. Since he said this, there is no possibility of repenting.
Moreover, Liu Ye ordered to abolish the conscription system, and only Hu Qi, as a minority, could be recruited, and the conscription system was restored. The conscription system and the conscription system have their own advantages. The soldiers of the conscription system are brave, but they lack loyalty and have no determination to defend the motherland. Although the soldiers of the conscription system are all peasants, they can grow up to be brave men as long as they are strictly trained.
During his reign, Liu Ye made great efforts in military, economic and political fields and launched many new policies. The most valuable thing is that Liu Ye broke the pattern of "the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog cooks". He treats the meritorious officials with a very open mind and enfeoffs the generals as Marquises. However, he also restricts the military power of some senior generals to prevent them from supporting soldiers and self-respect.
In April of the third year of Taichu, Emperor Liu Ye and his ministers went to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth. Liu Ye's literary, political and martial arts are excellent. Many people come here to worship the great emperor.
