Chapter 223: Nodes
The news that Zhuo Wangsun accepted Zhang Yuan's solicitation was first known to Zhang Yuan, and then Liu Che received the news a few days later.
Zongxing's team worked hard to arrive in Linqiong within nine days, and then went to the government to give five more days.
Zhuo Wangsun knew that he had no choice, and immediately chose to abandon Linqiong's family business.
On the one hand, he asked Zong Xing and the others to stay in Linqiong to rest first, and sent a team of people to deliver news to Zhang Yuan.
It's the time difference.
Who knows if Liu Che will have any radical reaction after knowing the news.
After Zhang Yuan received the news, he immediately stopped all expansion actions.
The circle is firmly enclosed in the circle of Chang'an City and the eight satellite cities.
Business is also going on as usual, but it is not promoted by the same unscrupulous means as before.
The dividends sent to the inner treasury and the Pingyang Hou Mansion are also sent as much as possible to some copper coins with the best condition.
"Bang dang!"
After Liu Che received the news, the whole person was really furious.
The bronzes in the palace are just for him to vent, and no matter how much he smashes them, there will be no big loss.
Compared with the emperors of later generations who smashed porcelain and tore calligraphy and paintings, the emperors of the Han Dynasty can be called thrifty.
"Call me Sang Hong sheep!"
Liu Che naturally would not shift the responsibility to himself, the idea was made by Sang Hongyang, and Zhang Yuan found out the loophole so quickly, and the person who made the decision must be the one who made the decision.
"Whoa."
The silent eunuch hurriedly retreated.
Liu Che, who was left in a rage, and some other maidservants and little yellow men were in this big palace.
In addition to the fact that the emperor has men and women when he is doing sexual affairs, he can't think of such a thing as pity and pity jade when he is angry.
The little people who remained in the temple were destined to endure the ravages of the storm.
The ruler of the Western Han Dynasty, except for Empress Lu, was Liu Che who killed the most people.
If it is because of Liu Che, whether indirect or direct, Liu Che is also one of the few emperors in history who is the Son of Heaven and ambushes millions of corpses.
I am afraid that Liu Che is still the only emperor who created so many killings in the middle of the great unified dynasty.
When Sang Hongyang walked into the palace, he had already experienced Liu Che's anger from the blood on the ground.
He has been with Liu Che for more than ten years and knows Liu Che's temperament.
In history, the emperor who has never hidden his own nature and can also achieve the merit of the thousand years is only the Qin Emperor and the Han Wu.
What they want is for their courtiers to be in their bones and out of their souls.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Sang Shizhong has arrived, arrived."
The eunuch's whole body trembled, and his speech was a little unclear.
However, Liu Che did not get angry because of this.
"Your Majesty."
Sang Hongyang tried to stabilize his emotions and bowed to Liu Che.
"That Zhuo Wangsun of Shu County has already voted for Zhang Yuanmen!
Now all their mines, ironworks, and wealth are all Zhang Yuan's! ”
Liu Che almost gritted his teeth and said these two sentences.
Sang Hongyang's brain was running rapidly, and he immediately found the reason for Liu Che's anger.
The rules of the Han Dynasty made many princes grow bigger, and the emperor could not do anything until he could find their faults.
That is, when Liu Che was at his strongest, that is, in 112 BC, he was deprived of one hundred and six marquis titles because of gold.
And now, although the Han is strong, it is far from the time when Liu Che's prestige is at its strongest.
There is also a Huainan king Liu An who has been thinking about rebellion, and he is alive and well.
Liu Che either didn't do it, or if he did, it was impossible to do some other cover-up behavior.
There was a Qianlong Emperor in the Qing Dynasty, who had long since died, and spent countless financial resources and manpower to build the Old Summer Palace.
As a result, after a few years, what kind of ghost Lao Zi said that for his filial piety, for the sake of the Queen Mother's birthday, he built Qingyi Garden, which was later the Summer Palace, and even used Liu Che to dig Kunming Pool to train the navy, I don't know how many people were recruited to dig out Kunming Lake.
Cheekily saying that this is his filial piety and for the purpose of building a water conservancy project is not against his ambition.
In order to maintain their reputation, emperors throughout the ages have been able to do what Qianlong is really a minority.
The ability to reverse black and white can be regarded as a must, but it's not actually for your own enjoyment.
Liu Che made a forest garden for hunting and playing, without any disguise.
Lao Tzu is the Son of Heaven, what happened to the Son of Heaven hunting circles.
And part of the reason for the construction of Shanglin Yuan is actually in the Empress Dowager Dou, Liu Che has rarely gone hunting and playing since the death of the Empress Dowager Dou.
He enjoys controlling power, and he is personally involved in everything, and he has to make his own decisions about no matter how big or small.
The Prime Minister's Mansion had been completely hollowed out at this time.
Xue Ze, the Marquis of Pingjian, was able to be the prime minister for seven years during the period when Liu Che and the Han were both on the rise, and he was given a nine-word evaluation in history.
Nothing is done, nothing is evil, fortunately.
Anyway, I don't care about the bad things and the good deeds, and I can retire in the Prime Minister's Mansion with peace of mind, and I am really lucky to be able to save my life in the end.
In fact, this is also Xue Ze's great wisdom, and a large group of people behind Xue Ze are not only the people from his Pingjian Marquis's Mansion, but also the Guangping Marquis.
When Xue Ze resigned as prime minister, Liu Che also damaged him a few words, saying that the old guy was useless.
In the past few decades of Liu Che's rule, if you want to divide each stage, you can start from each prime minister.
Twelve prime ministers are twelve stages.
The year Dou Ying became prime minister was when the young Liu Che had just ascended to the throne and wanted to do a big career.
The four years that Xu Chang was prime minister were the four years when Liu Che was punched by the Empress Dowager Dou and was stuck in the abyss. k
Tian Wei's four years as prime minister was when the Empress Dowager Dou finally died, and Liu Che needed the support of the Empress Dowager to stabilize his strength.
Xue Ze's seven years as prime minister was Liu Che's seven years when he stabilized his strength, he was just young and strong, and he was the most energetic in the whole person.
The three years when Gongsun Hong was prime minister was when Liu Che needed Confucianism to determine the ruling ideology for him, and he wanted to give hope to the new Confucian students in the whole world, and the new Confucian students could also worship the prime minister and be crowned marquis.
Li Cai's three years as prime minister were an accident, because Gongsun Hong died in office, and it happened that the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu when it was in the midst of repeated victories, Li Cai's military brigade not only comforted the Li family in Longxi but also gave great encouragement to the Han sergeant, Li Cai is Li Guang's cousin and a person of the Li family in Longxi, and it can be regarded as an explanation from Liu Che to the Li family in Longxi.
When Zhuang Qingzhai was prime minister for three years, in fact, at this time, in addition to Wei Qing, the most powerful person among the Han officials was Zhang Tang, and no one in the world was afraid of Zhang Tang.
The two framed each other and died, creating a special case of killing people with death.
When a person risks his own life to frame another person, it is even more powerful than the persuasive power of the law.
These three years have been the three years when the Han Dynasty was rampant, in fact, it was not only these three years, Liu Che went from youth to middle age, until he entered old age, the Han was actually shrouded in haze.
It's just that Zhang Tang has made a name for murder through the ages.
Zhao Zhou's three years as prime minister was three years of resistance to pressure, Liu Che wantonly deprived the marquis of his title in these three years, and Zhao Zhou naturally committed suicide and then left office.
The reason why the prime minister of the Han Dynasty committed so many suicides was actually because there were too many people standing behind them, and the suicide was regarded as extinguishing the anger in Liu Che's heart, so that he would not be convicted of all kinds of crimes when he was alive and finally involved in the people in the family.
Then Shi Qing became the emperor for nine years, and he didn't do anything on the throne, it seems that Liu Che just likes this kind of prime minister.
It was also when Shi Qing was prime minister that Liu Che began to move towards his old age.
Shi Qing, the prime minister, does not deal with things, and the prime minister at this time is really loyal and cautious.
After that, the Han always ushered in a person who could be called a person with enough qualifications, enough merit, and prestige in life to be the prime minister.
Gongsun He.
Gongsun He spent much longer polishing in the officialdom than his predecessors. This time was the time when Liu Che was most suspicious, and the twelve years that Gongsun He was prime minister can be said to have suppressed the chaos that gradually began to rise in the Han Dynasty.
However, this is to suppress it, not to clear the chaos, and there is an essential difference between the two.
The volcano will erupt after all, and the most famous witch curse in history, the injury of the prince Liu Ju, finally erupted.
Gongsun He is naturally finished, fortunately, Wei Qing is dead, otherwise he will be humiliated in his old age, which can be regarded as a little pity from God for Wei Qing.
Looking further up, Shi Qing, Zhao Zhou, and Zhuang Qingzhai are all people who have been the teachers of Prince Er.
And Gongsun He and Liu Yi have an iron-like relationship, their uncle.
The four successive prime ministers are all people of Liu Ju's lineage, and Liu Che supports Ram Chunqiu, and Liu Ju supports Gu Liang Chunqiu.
In addition, in addition to Liu Che's love for Liu Ju when he got his first son at the beginning, more often than not, the father did not show his liking for this son.
The reason is that the power behind Liu Ju is too great, and Liu Ju himself is not the type that Liu Che likes to shine wherever he goes.
Liu Ju's fate is actually not difficult to guess, but his death has become a node of the Han Dynasty and a node of history.
Liu Quyu became prime minister for a year entirely because Liu Che didn't know who was on Liu Ju's side among the ministers, so he could only find a trusted person among the clan relatives to replace him.
The reason why he has only been in office for this year is naturally to make many mistakes that people surnamed Liu love to make, whether the prince can set up a new prince if he dies, or whether he has a chance to be the emperor.
The last prime minister is Tian Qianqiu, at this time Liu Che is really old, a lion has reached his old age, looking at the treasury without a penny, the people without food, and the rapidly decreasing population, this emperor is finally old, and began to look back on his life, and worked hard to stabilize this crumbling empire for his successor.
Tian Qianqiu's title of liehou can also represent Liu Che's wish to enrich the people.
Zhang Yuan is fortunate that he has not yet reached Liu Che's middle age, and Liu Che at this time can still retain a trace of reason and wisdom.
After Sang Hongyang figured out the key, he immediately said to Liu Che with a smile.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to be angry about this, you already know the loopholes, otherwise you wouldn't have supported the remarks of the Great Bank Master Father Yan and wanted to favor the world.
Yichen seems that Xin'anhou's move may just be a last resort, anyway, the relationship between Xin'anhou and the eldest daughter of the Zhuo family must also be stopped by him, and besides, Zhuo Wangsun wants to help Xin'anhou, if it is Your Majesty, you will not let your supporters be harmed.
However, Xin'anhou's move is against His Majesty, he can't guess that this is Your Majesty's intention, you can wait for a while, if Xin'anhou does nothing, or there is no other movement on the Shu County's side, then Your Majesty, you should really consider the relationship between the monarch and the Xin'anhou. ”
It's really more popular than people, Sang Hongyang's words successfully restored Liu Che's composure and began to think about the key.
"You mean to make me wait?"
"Yes, Your Majesty should ignore Xin'anhou at this time, but issue a decree of Tui En before the August Festival, otherwise it will be too late in time."
Sang Hongyang didn't just let Zhang Yuan go, but he knew that Zhang Yuan was not easy to mess with after such a time, and before he found out Zhang Yuan's true purpose, he decided to find out Zhang Yuan's thoughts before making other moves.
"Okay, I got it.
Zhang Yuan's side will be watched by you first, and if he has any other changes, tell me immediately. ”
"I understand."
Seven days after Liu Che was on fire.
The Taishou of Shu County handed over the documents, saying that the Linqiong Zhuo clan intended to transfer all the mines in Shu County to the government and hand them over to the government for disposal.
After learning this news, Liu Che was a little relieved, in his opinion, Zhang Yuan was a sign of subservience.
After allocating all the mines of the Zhuo clan to another iron smelter, Kong only to deal with, Zhuo Wangsun finally sold out all the properties in Shu County.
Of course, the house was not sold, all the iron-smelting mills were sold, and the government took over the mines, so it was relatively easy to get rid of these fields and real estate.
It took more than a month to dispose of these properties, and after dealing with these things, the mighty convoy set off from Linqiong.
There are hundreds of accompanying vehicles and thousands of personnel, which is only the capital of the Zhuo family in Shu County, if all the people who are working for the Zhuo family are added up to tens of thousands.
This is the root of Liu Che's worries.
A certain boar king gathered more than 100 people and dared to rebel, not to mention these businessmen who had tens of thousands of people.
If you want to talk to Liu Che about trust, he will talk to you about reality.
You talk to him about the future, and he talks to you about the present.
You talk to him about reality, and he paints you a big pie.
Anyway, he is the emperor, and he has said everything, so he can only endure it if he is unhappy.
The team of thousands of people along the way, coupled with the gold and silver opening and the name of Xin'anhou, the team did not encounter any obstacles at all.
The government still supports the relocation of rich people to the realm of internal history, and Liu Che will not attack Zhuo Wangsun because of anger, to put it bluntly, neither Zhuo Wangsun nor Zhang Yuan is qualified.
The only person Liu Che was qualified to break his wrist with him in his life was the Empress Dowager Dou, but at that time Liu Che chose to do it.
Then I couldn't find an opponent and was too lonely, so I imagined my son as an enemy.
In this way, Zhuo Wangsun's army finally arrived in Lantian County a month after departure.
