Chapter 218 Personal Intervention

Before this, Su Che was still a little worried about the possibility of a rollover.
After all, the first three options are described in great detail and can basically confirm the other party's identity.
The last option, however, is only briefly described.
Although it is consistent with the deeds of that great man.
But it must be said that there is indeed a possibility of a rollover.
The description of option four is as follows: [The court is tyrannical. You are a street thug who comes from a poor family, is idle, and has accomplished nothing at the age of forty.
After seeing the emperor's carriage, you said: A real man should be like this! 】
If it is a fake who imitated the deeds of Emperor Gaozu of Han, it is not impossible.
Fortunately, nothing so ridiculous happened.
When the sentence [I am a commoner holding a three-foot sword and conquering the world, is this not destiny? ] appeared.
Su Che was also completely relieved.
Such a scene flashed before his eyes.
A commoner born in the countryside, holding a three-foot sword, shouted at Fang Zun with high spirits.
There seemed to be a speaker next to this cloth cloth player, playing extremely beautiful and melodious classical music.
However, this song is accompanied by a man's out-of-tune singing.
Even though every word is out of tune, there is an inexplicable heroism in it!
The singing is so infectious that people can't help but sing along -
"The wind rises and the clouds fly."
"I return home with great power throughout the country."
"How can I find brave warriors to guard the four directions?"
After seeing this scene and hearing this song, Su Che was inevitably shocked. He stared at the scene blankly.
After a long while, Su Che came back to his senses.
"Liu Bang, the first emperor of Han Dynasty."
"He is truly a rare hero!"
"Such a heroic demeanor is rare."
Su Che has imitated many people.
There were several kings among them.
Ying Zheng, Fu Jian, Zhu Yuanzhang.
But no matter who it is, it is difficult to compare with Liu Bang in terms of heroism.
Su Che couldn't help but marvel from the bottom of his heart.
"You are indeed Liu Bang."
"Will you let me simulate his life..."
Su Che muttered to himself.
“It’s very challenging.”
“But it’s also very interesting.”
If it were the Su Che of the past, imitating a top hero like Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, he might have fallen into extreme anxiety, unsure whether he could do better.
However, after going through so many simulations, if he still didn't have any confidence, then he would be too unconfident.
We should not be proud and arrogant, but self-confidence is different from that and is still needed.
At this moment, Su Che's face was very calm.
Facing the next challenge, Su Che was not nervous, but rather had a slight expectation.
but.
He also had some doubts.
That is...
What is the simulation method this time?
If it is in problem-solving mode, then it would be quite bad.
"I hope I can start from scratch this time instead of solving the problems from time to time. Otherwise, if they just throw the final problem to me to solve... that would be a real headache."
Although Liu Bang was the top emperor, unlike Zhu Yuanzhang, he did not monopolize power.
A founding emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang was at the pinnacle of imperial power, ruling the world and having the final say.
Thanks to Zhu's prestige, Su Che's policies and reforms were so successful.
If it were any other emperor, the Single Whip Law alone would not have been implemented so smoothly.
In addition, various problems may arise.
Wang Mang is the best example - no matter how good the original intention is, if it cannot be implemented smoothly, various problems will still arise!
In addition, during Liu Bang's period, the Han Dynasty was not ruled by him alone.
The Lu family group represented by Empress Lu.
The group of noble and meritorious officials represented by Xiao He, Chen Ping and Zhang Liang.
They all enjoy a considerable amount of rights.
Especially when Liu Bang reached his later years, although his prestige still remained, his days were numbered. The people in the group of meritorious officials left him one after another and moved closer to the people in the Lu family group. People like Han Xin either died or retreated, and it was really difficult for him to support the country alone.
If Su Che were to simulate Liu Bang during this period to solve his problem...
Even Su Che would be powerless to do anything about it.
These thoughts flashed through Su Che's mind.
He didn't have time to think any further, as the words in the book had already begun to evolve.
[You were born in Zhongyangli, Fengyi, Pei County, Wei State.]
[Because you are the third child in the family, your father named you Bang. ]
[Bang means country and city, and also means Fengyi combined into one.]
[Your father Liu Yan thought he had given you a very good name and was very proud of it.]
[After all, your ancestor was also a cultured person and a high-ranking official. ]
[Your father Liu Yan often said: Our ancestors were once Qin people, and moved to Wei during the war, and became doctors in Wei at the highest level! ]
[Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long, the family fell into decline, and gradually became obscure among the crowd.]
[But this is how China is. Every family can trace their ancestors back to some famous people.]
[After all, the descendants of poor families have long been extinct. ]
[Many years ago, when the Wei State moved its capital from Anyi to Daliang, our ancestor Liu Qing was born.]
[Qing gave birth to Ren, and Liu Ren moved to Fengyi. During this period, the Liu family lived in Fengyi for a long time, which is also the origin of your family. 】
[However, both the eldest and second brothers were dismissive of their father's words. If your family is really the descendant of some great man, how could you still work hard every day to make a living? Those great men have their own fiefs, so how could they be so poor?]
[After you were born, you became the most beloved person in the family. After all, you are the youngest child. ]
【You had a very happy childhood. 】
[Fengyi was located in the southeastern border of Wei State, adjacent to the powerful Chu State. ]
[This place is invaded by Chu culture. People wearing bright red Chu costumes can be seen everywhere, and some people like to sing Chu songs.]
[You have been influenced by Chu culture since you were a child, and you admire the Chu people's boldness and indulgence, as well as their unique style of freedom and uninhibitedness.]
[However, while you were happily enjoying your childhood, in Handan, the capital of Zhao State to the north, a child who was only three years older than you was wantonly insulted and bullied by the people of Zhao.]
[This is because this child is the son of Qin Yiren, a descendant of the King of Qin, and the relationship between Zhao and Qin at this time is extremely bad.]
[This situation has lasted for several years, and he lives in extreme fear every day.]
[From this moment on, this person who will change the entire world in the future starts to roar hysterically in his heart, and he will make everyone here pay the price! ]
【All this is very far away from you at this moment. 】
[The gears of fate have not yet started turning. ]
[When you were six years old, your father Liu Yan touched your head and asked you if you wanted to study? ]
[Your choice is...]
[One, swear to never read it. Two, accept it with pleasure. Three, delay it further. Intervene in person.]
Su Che looked at the constantly evolving text and the last option that appeared, and couldn't help but frown.
"Starting from the beginning..."
"Reading choice?"
Looking at this option, Su Che did not make a decision in a hurry, but thought about it seriously.
There are only a few stories about Liu Bang before he started the uprising, because at that time, he was mostly an insignificant little figure, let alone when he was a child?
However, as to whether Liu Bang had ever been educated, the answer is definitely yes. It would have been impossible for him to conquer the world without education, and it would have been even more impossible for him to sang the Great Wind Song fluently.
Although Liu Bang hated Confucian scholars very much and particularly liked to pee in their hats, during this period, Confucianism was just one of many disciplines.
Liu Bang's original life trajectory was nothing more than getting a piece of land and becoming a self-employed farmer.
For Liu Bang, he naturally was unwilling to be a farmer who worked the fields every day.
Therefore, he chose a path that most scholars of that era would choose - to become an official.
There was no such thing as the imperial examination in this era. If scholars wanted to enter the officialdom, there were roughly three ways to go.
Or expand your own reputation and be summoned by princes because of your great fame.
Or lobby monarchs of various countries to gain their recognition.
Or they could become a retainer of nobles and officials in the hope of gaining recommendations.
With Liu Bang's conditions, he had no fame, and was not qualified to meet the monarch, so he had no way of being appreciated.
So there is only a third way to go.
As a Wei native, the first person Liu Bang thought of was the famous Xinling Jun Wei Wuji.
Wei Wuji had three thousand retainers, and there must be quite a few who were just unqualified people. Liu Bang was confident that if it were him, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself.
So, the young Liu Bang left his hometown and traveled across mountains and rivers to the Wei capital Daliang.
But when he arrived here , Liu Bang was shocked to find that Wei Wuji had passed away.
Liu Bang, who had finally left his hometown, was naturally unwilling to return home, so he started to inquire in Daliang, hoping to find another person to serve. Later, he learned that Zhang Er, the prefect of Waihuang, was actively recruiting followers, so he happily went there.
In his early years, Zhang Er was a frequent guest of Lord Xinling. Later, for some reason, he left his native place and went into exile in Waihuang under an assumed name. With the support of his father-in-law, he became the magistrate of Waihuang County.
After Liu Bang met Zhang Er, the two hit it off immediately. After some conversation, Zhang Er even regarded Liu Bang as a good friend.
In this way, Liu Bang stayed as a guest at Zhang Er's place for several months, and gained a lot of knowledge from him.
Later, the State of Wei was destroyed by the State of Qin, and Zhang Er had to disperse all his followers and live in Waihuang. A few years later, due to Qin Shihuang's wanted list, he and his good friend Chen Yu fled to Chen County, which was the Chen County where Chen Sheng proclaimed himself king and named the country "Zhang Chu".
After the fall of Wei, Liu Bang was not allowed to return to his hometown. Due to the strict laws of Qin, Liu Bang could no longer leave his hometown easily.
So, Liu Bang, who had nothing to do, began to recruit followers in his hometown like Zhang Er did.
Given Liu Bang's status, wealth and reputation, it was impossible for him to recruit followers as widely as Zhang Er did, so the number of people he recruited was severely reduced.
Unable to recruit talented people from all over the world, he chose to select followers from his fellow townsmen.
Unable to spend money lavishly to provide for their food, clothing, housing and transportation, Liu Bang chose to treat them to meals and do charity to bring them closer together.
From then on, Liu Bang recruited a group of friends from the same hometown. He would either bring his friends to this family for dinner and drinks, or drag a group of "guests" to help that family with work. He was busy all day long.
However, Liu Bang believed that he was recruiting followers, but in the eyes of others, he was just a gangster who did not work, spent all day eating and hanging out, making friends with bad people, and always asking his family for money.
It was during this period that Liu Bang's father, Liu Lao Taigong, scolded Liu Bang every now and then: "Look at how hard your second brother works! Unlike you, you do nothing all day long and hang out outside. People outside say you are a scoundrel! If you continue like this, not only will you not be able to marry a wife, you will starve to death sooner or later! Don't you know how to be more mature? Only hard work can make you rich! Such a simple truth, why don't you understand?"
"Isn't it good to be an ordinary person? I know you have a big heart and don't want to be an ordinary person, but you are not the son of a king or a prince. You are just an ordinary person and it is impossible for you to achieve anything! Do you really think you can create a world of your own? Just accept your fate!"
"Among all my brothers, I love you the most and have given you the most care and guidance. But I never expected that you would be the most useless one among you brothers!"
At this time, Liu Bang naturally had no way to refute and could only bow his head and accept the scolding.
Wait until Liu Bang becomes emperor in the future.
He held a banquet in the Weiyang Palace to celebrate his old father's birthday.
Then he held up the jade wine cup and asked his father: "When we were young, you always said that I was a rogue, incapable of managing property, and did not have the ability to make money like my second brother. Now that I have become the emperor, who do you think has more property, me or my second brother?"
Old Master Liu was stunned and speechless.
In addition to this incident, there is another story.
During this period, Liu Bang's sister-in-law hated her brother-in-law and his friends because she often brought her "guests" home to eat and drink for free.
Once, Liu Bang brought his friends back for dinner. His sister-in-law was eating. When she saw them, she deliberately scraped the edge of the pot with a spoon, making a scraping sound, meaning to tell everyone that there was no more rice or soup in the pot.
Seeing this, Liu Bang's friends had no choice but to leave.
After Liu Bang and his friends left, he went to the pot himself and found that there was still soup in it. It turned out that his sister-in-law was pretending.
Liu Bang felt that his sister-in-law did not give him face, and he became resentful.
After that, when Liu Bang unified the country and became emperor, he appointed many of the royal family members as kings.
At that time, Liu Bang's second brother Liu Zhong, fourth brother Liu Jiao, cousin Liu Jia and all the princes were conferred the title of king, but Liu Bang only posthumously conferred the title of Wu Ai Hou on his deceased eldest brother Liu Bo. Liu Bo's son Liu Xin was the only one in the royal family who was not conferred any title.
Emperor Taishang Liu Yan blamed Liu Bang for not caring about his brotherly love. Liu Bang explained: "It's not that I forgot to confer the title on my eldest brother's son. It's because my eldest sister-in-law was such a bad person back then."
But under pressure from his father Liu Yan, Liu Bang reluctantly conferred the title of Marquis Geng Jie.
The word "Geng Jie" is not a place name, but was named after Liu Xin's mother who hit the soup pot. It means "scraping the bottom of the pot with a spoon."
Geng Jie Hou is roughly equivalent to "scraping the bottom of the pot with a spoon".
As soon as this title was announced, it undoubtedly became a laughing stock in the circle of nobles.
From these examples we can see that…
Although Lao Liu is a heroic person, he is not very narrow-minded.
Maybe a little bigger than the tip of a needle?
If we follow the simulated process, it is hard to say what Lao Liu's academic progress would have been like as a child.
After thinking for a moment.
Su Che finally decided to choose the fourth one——
Intervene personally!
