At this time, Shen Tugong didn't know that Liu Rong had thoroughly checked his old background, and he only thought that Zhi Du had found nothing in the root warehouse and wet warehouse.

After arranging for Liu Rong and others to live in Anyi City, he still did not give up and ordered someone to send a visit to the mansion where Liu Rong lived, and invited Liu Rong to his Taishou Mansion for a banquet.

When this Shentu Gong's worship sticker was delivered to Liu Rong, his servant also said: "Your Highness, the envoy has been waiting in the mansion, and I hope that His Highness can come to the mansion for a banquet today."

As soon as this person left, Liu Rong threw the sticker on the bookcase without looking at it, and said to himself: "Shen Tu Gong! Shen Tugong, I don't know that my death has come! ”。

Later, after Liu Rong and Jia Yi discussed, they decided to go to the banquet in person, and even ordered someone to inform Shen Tugong that on the day of the dinner, he ordered him to summon all the lieutenant colonels and lieutenants of the army of Hedong County to his mansion.

Shen Tugong didn't know what Liu Rong meant by this, but at this time, when he was trying to get Liu Rong to try his best, how could he dare to refuse Liu Rong's request.

That night, all the officials in Anyi City who were ranked higher than a thousand stones went to the Taishou Mansion of the Taishou Shentu Gong.

Half of these captains in the Hedong Army were Zhou Yangyou's henchmen, and they didn't expect Zhou Yang to come from the mansion, but when they learned that this was the intention of the emperor's eldest son Liu Rong, they had to reluctantly go to the Taishou Mansion.

In this way, at dusk, there was an endless stream of guests coming and going in front of the gate of the Hedong Taishou Mansion, and Shentu Gong personally went to the gate of the mansion to greet them, but the officials who came here did not know that Shentu Taishou was not so to welcome them.

It is to welcome the protagonist of tonight's banquet, the emperor's eldest son Liu Rong.

After a while, Liu Rong and the others drove to the gate of the Taishou Mansion in a car, and as soon as they got out of the car, Shen Tugong hurriedly came over.

Saluted and said: "Your Majesty Shen Tu Gong has seen His Highness!" ”。

Then he saluted Jia Yi and Zhidu.

"Anyi is the rule of Shentu Taishou, I wait until I come here, Shentu Taishou doesn't have to be polite."

"Your Highness!".

When Liu Rong and the others arrived here, tonight's dinner party began.

Where have the officials of Hedong usually seen the prince here, and there are two high-ranking officials of Jiuqing, so they are all abnormally restrained, just afraid of displeasing His Highness and the angels.

And Shen Tu Gong, even if he picked up the wine glass, walked to the hall, and said: "Your Highness can come to my Hedong this time, it is a blessing for my subjects in Hedong, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, I hope Your Highness will forgive your sins!" ”。

After speaking, he drank the wine in this cup.

Seeing this, the rest of the officials in Hedong of course all got up and saluted Liu Rong.

Liu Rong raised his glass and said with a smile: "This is to Hedong, you have to rely on the help of the ministers, and you don't need to be polite."

After that, Shen Tugong even called out the singer he had worked so hard to find.

Liu Bang did not marry Lu Pheasant, he had an affair with Cao Ji and gave birth to a Liu Fei, and later became the king of Han, so he loved to find beautiful women, and after he became the Son of Heaven, he was even more 'lust' unscrupulous.

If it weren't for his lust, then King Huainan Li and Liu Rong's grandfather, Emperor Wen, would not have been born.

Everyone in the world of the Han family knows that since Emperor Liu Bang, most of the sons of heaven of the Han family are very lustful people.

Hedong is a place of beautiful women, in order to please Liu Rong, Shen Tugong has made a lot of money, and found that the singers are all tall and beautiful women.

When the musicians played the music, these dressed singers danced, and the officials of Hedong who were present were fascinated by it, and if there was no one around, these people would immediately rush to some dancing singers to have fun.

Everyone has a love for beauty, Liu Rong is now seventeen years old, and he has already married a wife in the people, and he has to be the father of several children, so he naturally likes beautiful women.

But if you want to be a superior, you must be able to resist the temptation that others can't resist, and Liu Rong also knows that this Shentu Gong must not have any good intentions.

And this Shen Tu Gong, since these singers have been here, he has secretly looked at Liu Rong who is sitting at the top from time to time.

After a closer look, he found that Liu Rong didn't seem to be interested in these beauties at all, and he seemed to be talking something to Jia Yi.

After talking to Jia Yi, after a while, Liu Rong got up and asked the musician to stop playing, and said: "I suddenly remembered that the Son of Heaven still has an edict that has not yet been read."

Hearing this, everyone present immediately got up and saluted Liu Rong and his party: "Please read it out to Your Highness."

Shen Tugong waved his hand, causing all the singers and musicians present to retreat.

Then Liu Rong read out the edict that the old man gave him in public.

When he heard that His Majesty's edict ordered Liu Rong to dominate Hedong, Shen Tu Gong was not surprised, but it was completely beyond Shen Tu Gong's expectation that Jia Yi temporarily took charge of Zhou Yang's military power in Hedong.

After finishing speaking, Jia Yi stepped forward and took out the tiger talisman given by the Son of Heaven from his arms and said, "Where are the captains of Hedong!" ”。

In this way, these lieutenants immediately saluted and said: "The last general!" ”。

"Ben Hou is ordered by the Son of Heaven to lead the military affairs of Hedong, and tomorrow the Japanese Marquis will go to the military camp of Hedong to check the defense of Hedong!"

The captains said in unison: "No! At the end of tomorrow, he will wait in the camp to welcome the arrival of the Marquis of Dangyang."

After his words were finished, Liu Rong, Jia Yi and others left from the Taishou Mansion in Hedong.

That night, Shen Tugong couldn't sit still, and the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, just afraid that what he had done would be exposed.

is too guarded and so worried, not to mention the long history Yang Wu and Du Post Tong Jing, after the dinner, the rest of the officials all retired, only these two people remained here to ask to see Shen Tugong.

Shen Tu Gong said with a cold face: "Yang Changshi, can the people in prison be solved!" ”。

"Rest assured that everything has been disposed of, and the lower officials have ordered someone to secretly pull his dead body out of the city and bury it in a deserted grave ten miles away on the outskirts of the city."

In this way, Shen Tu Gong can be considered to be a little relieved.

When the two left, Shen Tu Gong sat alone in the room for a long time, and as soon as Zhou Yang left from the front foot, the Son of Heaven issued an edict ordering Jia Yi to take charge of the defenders of Hedong County.

However, even so, Shen Tugong at this time had nothing to do, so he had to pray in his heart, hoping that he could escape this catastrophe.

……………………………………………………………………

In the early morning of the next day, Jia Yi drove early by car to the place where the defenders of Hedong were stationed.

It wasn't until it was dark that he rushed back, and as soon as Liu Rong heard that Jia Yi was back, he hurriedly brought the broth cooked by the cook.

As soon as Jia Yi entered the main hall, before he could speak, Liu Rong said first: "It's cold today, the teacher will eat the broth to drive away the cold first, and then talk later."

Hearing this, Jia Yi smiled and bowed his hand to Liu Rong before saying, "Your Highness Xie."

In this way, Jia Yi ate the meal, and then said to Liu Rong: "During this day, the minister has already said that the captain in the army is all willing to the court and His Royal Highness!"

Several of them also reported to the ministers that Zhou Yang was greedy for the salary of the army in the east of the Mo River."

Hearing Jia Yi's words, Liu Rong relieved himself, so that the army of Hedong was in his own hands, even if this Shentu Gong was a powerful snake, he had to lie on the ground honestly.

laughed and said: "Haha, as a Confucian scholar, how can the teacher be as eloquent as a Zongheng family, and make these school captains happy and surrender in just one day."

"His Highness should not praise him like this, without him, but with great righteousness.

These lieutenants also know that they follow Zhou Yangyou wholeheartedly, and there is no way out, so how can they not want to give them a way to live."

Before Liu Rong was happy for a while, Jia Yi said something to Liu Rong that made him worry.

Jia Yi got up and walked to Liu Rong, and said, "Your Highness, can you know what the minister found in this army?" ”。

Looking at Jia Yi's worried face, Liu Rong hurriedly asked, "Why is it?" ”。

"When the minister arrived at the Hedong barracks today, he checked the files of the officers in his army who were more than 500 stones, and found something interesting.

There are four lieutenants and more than ten military commanders in the Hedong Army, most of whom are members of the Hedong Wang clan, including the Pingyang Marquis, the Fenyin Marquis and the Beiping Marquis.

Hearing this, Liu Rong understood what the teacher meant, more than 50 years after the founding of the Han family, the so-called family gate valves that appeared in later generations have begun to sprout and develop quietly!

Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there have been hundreds of columns, which have been rooted in its fiefdoms for a long time, how can the development of generations not intersect with local officials, so that over time, these columns will take root and grow in a county, and then naturally become a wealthy family in this county.

At this time, these wealthy families were still in their embryonic stage, and no one could notice them, but once they grew so strong that the court could notice them, it would be difficult to eradicate them at that time.

Liu Rongke knows very well how powerful the harm of the family gate valve is.

In the Western Han Dynasty, since Liu Yu respected Confucianism, whether it was the conquest of the imperial court or the inspection of the county, most of them were selected by wealthy scholars. However, due to the difficulty of teaching scriptures, the masters of scriptures often pass on their unique opinions to their children, and through the teaching of successive generations, the scriptures of the past generations often cause the generations of ministers, and the prototype of the family has gradually emerged.

By the end of the Western Han Dynasty, local stubborn forces had begun to become a stubborn disease of the entire Han Empire, and Wang Mang's success in usurping the Han Dynasty was a manifestation of the fact that these heroes were already difficult to control.

The great demon master Liu Xiu was able to pacify the world for three years, and it was inseparable from the support of the family.

The dictatorship of eunuchs in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty was not just the mediocrity of the Son of Heaven to use eunuchs, but the last rebellion of the Son of Heaven of the Han family against the family.

At that time, the right to education and the right to education were monopolized in the hands of those local tycoons, and even if the lower class people were educated, they were inextricably linked to the family.

After more than 200 years of infiltration and development, the local Haoqiang has gradually formed into a family. At that time, the world of the Han family was no longer the world of the Liu family, but the world of the family, the family monopolized the appointment of middle and lower officials through filial piety and honesty, and the common people at the bottom were also directly affected by the local family.

The Maison owned a large amount of property, land, and private armed forces, and had great influence over the local area. The Han royal family has basically lost control of the big ship of the empire, so in order to consolidate the imperial power had to reuse the eunuchs, the two party disasters are not so much the dispute between the eunuchs and the scholars, but the dispute between the eunuchs and the family on behalf of the imperial power, and the later outcome is undoubtedly clear, the Han Dynasty royal family is a failure, and it is a complete defeat.

At the time of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao also saw the danger of the family, and in order to alleviate such a situation, Cao Cao chose officials regardless of their origins and only asked them about their talents. Guo Fengxiao, who has the talent of Wang Zuo in the history books, is a person from a poor family.

However, Cao Cao, after his death, Cao Pi had to compromise with the family in order to be the emperor, and agreed to Chen Qun's proposal of the nine-product Zhongzheng system, and then the right to select officials was completely in the hands of these family lords......

However, the irony is that the Sima clan, who ended the Cao Wei regime, was a powerful family of officials in the past dynasties............

After nearly 500 years, the rule of these family lords was finally collapsed at the end of the Tang Dynasty.

Haoqiang is simply poison for the imperial power, of course the emperor of the Western Han Dynasty knows the harm of local Haoqiang, but since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the Haoqiang killed is wave after wave, but it is still difficult to cure, and it is getting worse......

With this in mind, Liu Rong was determined to nip these behemoths in the bud.

After Jia Yi left, Liu Rong thought about it for a long time in the room before he came up with the only way to completely destroy these gate valve families.

Only by popularizing education throughout the Han family, changing the official selection system, and selecting officials through the imperial examination, can the possibility of this family be completely broken.

The implementation of the imperial examination should be enough to succeed. However, the implementation of education, even in our Great Celestial Empire, will take a long time to achieve universal education, let alone the Han Dynasty in front of more than 2,000 people whose productivity is so low.

If all people want to be able to read, I am afraid that Liu Rong will not succeed even if he has been busy for decades in his life.

However, Liu Rong was not discouraged, and said to himself: If you don't accumulate steps, you can't go thousands of miles, since God has let me come to this Han Dynasty! I swore that in this life, I will make the Han country rich and the people strong! All the people of the Han family can read!
