Chapter 1072: The Whisper of That Night

Moonlit night, Lang Sky.

The wind is clear and the clouds are light.

But the man is undecided.

Liu Xie tossed and turned, but he couldn't sleep,

Well, the stimulation is too great.

This situation is actually the same as the fact that the half-grown children in their teens secretly observed the movement and evolution from F to B, and then the central nervous system was overexcited, resulting in insomnia.

It turned out that when he was in the palace, Liu Xie also imagined what the world should be like and what the people should be, but he didn't want to be the same as today......

So ......

Liu Xie couldn't even find any words to describe it, maybe there were only two words left.

Authentic.

It really made Liu Xie a little uncomfortable, and after tossing and turning on the couch for a while, he finally sat up, then was stunned for a while, stood up, took off the hanging robe and put it on, and then walked out.

"Your Majesty, this is ......" Fu Shou was awakened by Liu Xie's actions and couldn't help asking.

Liu Xie said: "It's okay, I can't sleep, go outside." You go back to sleep, leave me alone......"

The waiter who was waiting outside the tent for half a sleep also woke up passively, and hurriedly took another big coat and wrapped it in Liu Xie, widening his eyes and wanting to say something but not knowing what to say, so that Liu Xie didn't go around and went back to sleep quickly? Liu Xiedu has already come out, how can he stop it?

Therefore, these two attendants could only be silent, and then followed Liu Xie step by step.

The soldiers on duty not far from the tent saw Liu Xie and hurriedly bowed.

“…… What about the general of Zhengxi? Liu Xie commanded, "...... Lead the way, I ...... Some things ......"

Liu Xie had too many questions in his heart, but he couldn't find the answers, he hoped that someone could answer them for him, and this person was naturally Fei Qian, who was slightly older than himself.

Fei Qian has not rested yet.

Although leaving Pingyang, the messenger scouts who come and go will still send information and documents to Fei Qian, and many things can only be handled after Fei Qian's approval and authorization, so in addition to the march, Fei Qian must also approve these official documents one by one, so basically you need to rest until late at night.

Seeing Liu Xie coming, Fei Qian also felt a little surprised, and hurriedly asked Liu Xie to take a seat, and then instructed the guards to prepare some tea soup and refreshments......

Liu Xie was silent for a while and said, "Fei Aiqing...... I...... I still can't forget that bowl...... The smell of the batter that night...... The lives of the people in this Han world are really like this...... So ......"

Liu Xie couldn't find any adjectives, and he didn't know what adjectives to use. After all, Liu Xie himself is the so-called Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, in other words, all the people in this world belong to him, and after seeing such a situation, doesn't it mean that he, the Son of Heaven, has not played any role in illuminating the people?

Moreover, Liu Xie also knew that the farmers he saw this time were more or less good, so naturally there were even worse, and Liu Xie could not imagine the specific situation of those Han farmers living under worse environmental conditions.

So in this way, doesn't it mean that Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, has failed very much?

If Liu Xie himself was a person who ate and waited for death, did not have any dreams at all, and only knew how to obey his physical instincts and individual desires, he would not have these troubles, but the problem is that Liu Xie is still young, and he is still full of curiosity and longing for the world, as well as his own dreams, so such a gap makes Liu Xie very uncomfortable.

"Hmm......" Fei Qian looked at Liu Xie, and understood a little what he was thinking, after all, the situation of sitting on the top of the main hall, his eyes flashing with the color of longing for the future, and talking about the so-called theory of governing the country was still vaguely in front of him.

Liu Xie in front of him is just a ...... who has put too much burden on his shoulders

Child.

It is not easy for a half-year-old child to be like this.

Well, but in the future, it's even harder.

God has never been kind......

"Your Majesty......" Fei Qian pondered for a while and said, "The plague was rampant in Guanzhong before, did Your Majesty hear about it?" ”

Liu Xie nodded silently.

“…… In the first six years of the Yuan Dynasty, there was a great epidemic. In the fourth year of Yanguang, the Kyoto epidemic. In the first year of Yuanjia, Kyoto and Lujiang suffered another major epidemic, the fourth year of Jianning, the second year of Xiping, the second year of Guanghe, the fifth year of Guanghe, and the second year of Zhongping...... "Fei Qian slowly spit out a long list of years," ...... Does Your Majesty also know about this? ”

"......" Liu Xie was silent for a while and said, "What does Fei Aiqing mean...... As the Son of Heaven, there is a loss of virtue, so a great epidemic fell from heaven? The induction of heaven and man in the Han Dynasty is the basis of this theory.

Fei Qian shook his head and said, "The pandemic is actually not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster......

Liu Xie's eyes widened and said, "Why did Fei Aiqing say that? This ......"

"It's not at all the same as what Your Majesty heard before, is it?" Fei Qian smiled and said, "...... Jianning, Xiping, Guanghe, Guanghe, and Zhongping have had five consecutive epidemics, and His Majesty really believes that it is the first emperor...... The so-called virtue is a loss? ”

"This ......" Liu Xie was speechless, not knowing how to answer well.

Jianning, Xiping, Guanghe, Guanghe, and Zhongping are the names of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, when the two factions of scholars and eunuchs fought to the death, both accusing these disasters of being caused by the other party, but Liu Xie also heard about it, and even heard his father sigh in front of him, is it really a warning from the sky......

“…… Fei Aiqing ......" Liu Xie looked at Fei Qian and said, "I ...... I would like to hear about it......"

Fei Qian lifted a piece of wood on the table, gestured for a moment, and then said, "Suppose this is the chaos between Ban Yuman and Xiqiang...... For the time being, we will not consider why Ban Yuman and Xiqiang rebelled, and just ask how to deal with this issue now......"

Fei Qian pushed the wooden slip in front of Liu Xie.

Liu Xie looked at this piece of wood with some words written on it, paused, and said, "...... When the peace is ...... If the rebellion is not peaceful, it will erode all sides, and then it will become more and more uncontrollable......"

Fei Qian nodded in approval. Rebellion, for any kingdom, for any regime, is something that cannot be compromised, even if it is smashing the pot and selling iron, the rebellion will be put down first, so Emperor Han Ling did so.

“…… To quell the rebellion, you need soldiers' salaries, money, and food...... Fei Qian lifted the second piece of wooden slab, put it on top of the first piece of wooden slab, and said, "...... Dasi Nong played, the public treasury had no money, and could not support the soldiers' salaries, money and food......"

"This ......" Liu Xie glared, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't ask Fei Qian why the public treasury had no money.

Because this is a fact, when his father Emperor Ling was alive, it was like this, the country wanted to use soldiers, but he couldn't come up with much money......

“…… Let Shaofu make up for it! Liu Xie made the same decision as his father.

Fei Qian smiled, and then said, "Your Majesty knows what it means to let Shaofu pay for the army? ”

"It's always better than today's bowl of batter, right?" Liu Xie said, "It's okay to be frugal in the palace......

"Good!" Fei Qian nodded, then picked up the pen, and swiped about a third of the way on the edge of the second piece of wood, and said, "...... However, the money of the Shaofu is the use of the royal family, and normally speaking, public and private must be distinguished...... Well, I'll talk about that later...... The small government subsidy can only meet one-third of the soldier's salary needs, and more than half of it...... Your Majesty, where do these come from? ”

Liu Xie looked at the line drawn by Fei Qian, and was silent, he knew what his father had done, but he couldn't tell it, or he couldn't tell it......

"Selling the official mantle?" Liu Xie couldn't say anything about his father's fault, but Fei Qian didn't have any burden, so he said directly, "Your Majesty thinks that only the first emperor has done this?" Emperor Wu did it back then, didn't he do it too? Buying and selling military lords, recovering salt and iron, and encouraging adultery, isn't it the same as the military expenses for conquering the Huns? So why did Emperor Wu do it, but the first emperor did it but was so criticized? Emperor Wu leveled the Xiongnu, and the first emperor also leveled Xiqiang, but why did he only hear that Emperor Wu was bright and martial, but the first emperor was ......"

"This ......" Liu Xie's eyes widened, no one had ever said such things like this, and no one had ever compared his father, Emperor Han Ling and Emperor Wu of Han. What these Fei Qian said was like a sudden thunderbolt, which made Liu Xie at a loss.

Fei Qian picked up another piece of wood, put it on the other side, and said, "...... Your Majesty, if you still can't think clearly, you can give another example...... During the reign of Emperor Xiao'an, Xiqiang also rebelled, and it took eleven years before and after, and it was finally pacified, costing a total of 24 billion ......"

Fei Qian pointed to the piece of wood on the side, indicating that this piece of wood represented 24 billion yuan, then picked up the pen, and drew a line about a quarter of this piece of wood, and said: "The first emperor pacified Xiqiang, which lasted for many years and cost a lot, totaling 4.4 billion yuan...... Then came the Yellow Turban Thief ......"

Fei Qian's unfinished meaning, Liu Xie actually understands. Because these are also Liu Xie's compulsory courses, you can't say that you don't even know anything about your ancestors, right? After Emperor An of the Han Dynasty was finished, there was also Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, although it was the dictatorship of foreign relatives, the eunuchs took power, and it was also the appearance of anger and resentment, but it was not as fragmented as it is now, and there is a situation where smoke is everywhere.

Emperor An of the Han Dynasty spent 24 billion money, and he could still live and die smoothly, and then pass the emperor's position to his son, so why did Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty only use 4.4 billion yuan to make a mess in the world?

yes, why is that?

Liu Xie didn't understand, he really couldn't figure it out, so he arched his hand to Fei Qian and said, "I ...... Don't understand...... Please also ask Fei Aiqing to teach ......"

Fei Qian also arched his hand, expressed his return salute, and then said: "Your Majesty is serious, and the ministers should say everything...... "It is still good in the Han Dynasty, there is also the ancient style of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period between the monarchs and ministers, the monarch is not necessarily high, and the courtiers are not blindly servile, except for formal occasions such as the need to perform a big ceremony on the court hall, most of the other time is relatively casual, and even sometimes it is normal to sit on an equal footing, and no one thinks there is anything wrong.

Fei Qian sorted out his thoughts for a moment and continued: "During the period of Emperor Wu, the people of the world had 34 million mouths...... During the period of Emperor Xiao'an, there were more than 9 million households in the world and 48 million mouths...... At the time of the first emperor, there were more than 10 million households and more than 60 million mouths...... And the land of the world, from Emperor Wu to the first emperor, can there be a multiplier of the number of mouths? The land produces constant yields, or there are droughts and floods, but over the years, the growth is not much, so the people of the world ...... Under the average, it will only become poorer and poorer, more and more miserable, and once something happens, chaos will inevitably arise...... So, does Your Majesty understand? ”

Fei Qian simply instilled a concept into Liu Xie, as the Son of Heaven, he cares about whether the people in the world can eat enough, of course he is a good emperor, but the population of the world will increase, when the population increases to a certain extent, there will inevitably be some poor people who can't eat enough, and there are more and more of these poor people, and the society will become more and more unstable, so even if he is a good emperor, there is no way......

As for land annexation, exploiting classes, gentry monopolies, and polarization, Fei Qian skipped all of these things.

There are some things that can be said, some things that cannot be said, some things that are useless even if they are said, and some things that are still to be said even though they are useless. Fei Qian has been thinking about these things for a long time, but this is the only thing that can be said now, and maybe one day in the future, he can talk about other things......

Liu Xie blinked, some understood and some didn't understand, because this concept was indeed too novel, so novel that he had never heard of it, and naturally he had never thought about it. After pondering for a long time, Liu Xie said, "But...... Sima Fa said, although the country is large, the belligerent will perish......"

Fei Qian smiled and said, "Isn't there a second half of the sentence?" Is there less war in this period of time? ”

Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, and then nodded silently.

Although the country is big, the warlike will perish, and although the world is peaceful, forget the war will be worried. It is a sadness that a sentence that was originally good was taken out of context.

In view of the overall production and living standards of the Han Dynasty, as well as the economic and social structure, it is obviously unrealistic to promote the social structure of the later generations that surpasses the productive forces, and it will not be accepted by the whole society.

It is also very simple to implement, that is, to pick up the words of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty again, and the resistance to doing so is also the least, and all the children of the scholar clan in the world dare not say half a word.

“…… Since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, the land of China has had the most beautiful costumes, the most standardized etiquette, the most profound words, and the most exquisite utensils......" Fei Qian smiled, looked at Liu Xie, and said slowly, like an angel spreading holy light, and like a demon whispering in his ear.

“…… From the Western Regions to the East China Sea, from the Northern Desert to the Southern Xinjiang, these places were all developed by the ancestors of China little by little, and cultivated step by step, so today, what reason do we have to stop? ”

"Why do you want to listen to the words of those sour and rotten people?"

"Why do you want to keep your eyes fixed on this little treasure left by your ancestors?"

"Why can't you look up and look far away, spread the banner of the Han Dynasty and the glory of the Han Dynasty to the end of the mountains and seas, and go on forever until the day when this world ends?"
