In the main hall, Tian He and Emperor Jing of Han chatted for quite some time.
Although Tian Qiong didn't know how to farm or raise horses, it didn't stop him from proposing a general framework and direction so that Emperor Jing of Han could send relevant officials to follow his direction.
After a long time!
Emperor Jing looked at Tian Qiong and sighed deeply,
"Today, Zhen has truly seen your talent!”
He did not expect that his brother-in-law was not only good at leading troops in war, but also had deep opinions on farming, horse administration, craftsmanship, and so on. Moreover, he was eloquent.
Tian Qiong looked at Emperor Jing. He didn't chatter on and on. What he gave Emperor Jing was just a simple suggestion. The specifics still needed Emperor Jing to gather officials to implement.
Moreover, the Han Dynasty did not feel any imminent threat, no huge pressure, and no firm will from the upper echelons. The Han Dynasty was still unable to start a huge wave of reform, and the national strength could not increase rapidly!
Why was the Han Dynasty so powerful during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?
Other than the wealth accumulated during the reign of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, there was also the firm will of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and his needs!
There was not enough food to fight the Xiongnu? Then they would think of ways to increase grain production, build water conservancy projects, reform farming methods, promote winter wheat, and so on!
Not enough money to fight the Xiongnu? Then they would attack the local tyrants, reform the currency system, monopolize salt and iron, and so on!
Not enough warhorses to fight the Xiongnu? Then they should encourage the people to raise horses and even use food to feed the warhorses!
The weapons used to fight the Xiongnu were not good? Then he would improve his forging technique!
Whether it was politics, economy, society, or other aspects, it was because of the great promotion of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the entire Han Dynasty blossomed with brilliant light during this period!
If Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty was determined to go to war with the Xiongnu and had the ambition to destroy the Xiongnu, the Han Dynasty would definitely be able to step forward!
In Tian Meng's eyes, Emperor Jing of Han was also a bloody emperor. When he was still the Crown Prince, he dared to smash the Crown Prince of Wu with a chessboard. Although it was only a momentary mistake, he was definitely full of blood!
Now that the Xiongnu had invaded the border of the Han Dynasty, killed and plundered the people of the border, they simply did not put the Han Dynasty in their eyes. As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, with Emperor Jing's temper, how could he not be angry?
However, as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he was shouldering the fate of the entire Han Dynasty. He had considered too much and worried too much, so he did not dare to make this decision easily and take this risk!
However, he didn't dare to make this decision, so Tian Qiong decided to help him and let him completely cut off his fantasy of living in peace with the Xiongnu!
"Your Majesty, in fact, other than offering this blueprint and talking to Your Majesty, I have another request!”
Tian Qiong looked at Emperor Jing of Han who was immersed in his thoughts and said.
"Oh? What request do you have?"
Emperor Jing of Han looked at Tian Meng in surprise and said with a smile,
"As long as it's not too much, zhen will allow it!”
At this moment, he was very fond of Tian Meng, so before Tian Meng could say anything, he had already promised.
"Your Majesty, the Xiongnu have conquered Yanmen Prefecture and Yunzhong Prefecture. The Governor of Yanmen Prefecture died in battle. I beg Your Majesty to transfer me to Yanmen Prefecture to guard the border!”
Tian Meng stood up and cupped his fists.
" What?!"
"You want to go to the border?"
Emperor Jing of Han widened his eyes in shock and looked at him in disbelief.
Tian Qiong was not surprised to see Emperor Jing's expression.
The prefect of the border county was an official with a rank of two thousand koku, the same as his current Zuo Zhonglang.
His current Zuo Zhonglang was truly a close minister of the emperor, leading a part of the Imperial Army. He was also in the prosperous Chang 'an, so he could be said to be very free and easy, and he was promoted quickly.
As for the prefect of the border county, it was a little tough. Not only was the border busy, but he was also constantly facing danger.
Most officials hoped to be transferred to the inner court, even if their official positions were one level lower!
Now that Tian Meng, as the Left Lieutenant General, was requesting to be transferred to the border prefecture, there was no doubt that this was an automatic demotion!
"Yes, Your Majesty. I'm willing to do my part to defend the border and spill my blood!”
Tian Meng's expression was filled with righteousness.
Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty looked at him in shock. Did this young man really have such intentions, or?
"Your words have touched me, but this matter…"
Emperor Jing of Han pondered for a while before looking at him again and saying,
"I have to think about it!"
He didn't immediately agree to Tian Meng's request.
"If Your Majesty is worried that I can't take on this responsibility, I'm willing to make a military pledge…"
Tian Wei thought that Emperor Jing of Han considered his youth.
"With your talent, Zhen is not worried!”
Emperor Jing shook his head and said,
"You can leave first. Zhen will consider it before replying to you!”
Tian Qiong hesitated for a moment, but he didn't say anything else and left the hall.
It seemed like Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty was reluctant to let him go to the border?
Gazing at Tian Meng's departing figure, Emperor Jing of Han sighed softly.
This young man was talented in both literature and martial arts. He was really extraordinary. He had originally planned to promote him after a while, but he did not expect him to suggest going to the border!
Yanmen Prefecture was an important prefecture to defend the border against the Xiongnu. It indeed needed a capable person to manage it...
Emperor Jing of Han was a little hesitant!
After Tian Qiong left the Xuan room, he returned to Zuo Zhonglang's office.
"I wonder if Liu Qi will agree to let me go to Yanmen Prefecture?”
Tian Meng muttered to himself as he stared in the direction of the Xuanshi Hall.
He shook his head and did not think further.
In the evening, Tian Qiong rode his horse back to the mansion!
"Lord, it's good that you're back. This old servant has found a high-class mansion. I have an appointment with the owner of the mansion.”
Qian Gui hurriedly pulled the horse over and asked Tian Meng.
"Oh? A high-class mansion?"
Tian Kui was very interested.
" It's definitely a first-class mansion. I've inquired for a long time and seen many mansions in Chang 'an before I found such a first-class mansion. It's definitely not bad!”
Qian Gui said confidently.
"Alright, let's go take a look!"
Tian Qiong had long wanted to change to a bigger house, but the current house was too small. Even if he bought servants, he couldn't settle them down.
"Alright Lord, you will definitely be satisfied!”
Qian Gui patted his chest and led the way.
