Section 1012 Struggle for power and profit (3)
The Son of Heaven ignored the reaction of his ministers.
The ministers are sour or not, what is the problem for him?
As an emperor, he rarely cared about the feelings of his subordinates.
Holding the sword in his hand, the Son of Heaven took a step forward and said, "I ...... I've been thinking about it, the Yellow Emperor, the Yellow Emperor, Yao Shunyu...... The first kings of the past dynasties, how did they rule the world, and to the extreme, so that the punishment was not necessary, Li Shu was healthy, the world was peaceful, there were no soldiers in the four seas, there were distant countries to come to the court, and there were thousands of miles away Yi Di to offer? ”
"Benevolence? Virtue? Manners? ”
He raised his head slightly and said, "Of course, these are important, but they are ...... Emperor Gao, Emperor Taizong, Emperor Xiandi and other previous emperors did not cultivate benevolence and righteousness, rule with virtue, and build etiquette? ”
"I also diligently pursue, to achieve this way, why doesn't the phoenix come, the river doesn't come out of the map, and the Luo can't come out of the book?"
"When Zhang Zi rededicated the theory of the third generation, and Xinfeng produced many ears of Jiahe, yielding seven stones per mu, I finally realized ......"
"Benevolence, righteousness, and etiquette are all the Mao of the government of the first king......"
"The one to whom it is attached......" The Son of Heaven stretched out a finger: "It lies in the word 'rich'!" ”
"Only when the country is rich can the soldiers be strong and strong, can the world be subjugated and the four seas be peaceful!"
"Only when the people are rich can they be full, and then they know the etiquette ......"
"Therefore, Confucius's suitable guard, the son of Yu said: rich!"
"Therefore, the rite says: The country has no animals for nine years, and it is said that it is insufficient; There is no six-year-old animal, and it is urgent; If there is no three-year-old animal, the country is not its country! ”
"Therefore, Emperor Yao ordered Shun to say: The four seas are poor, and Tianlu will end forever!"
"That's why I can take advantage of the accumulation of Taizong and the first emperor to whip the Huns, unify the four seas, and be above the kings of all countries in the world!"
"The so-called well-off world, the so-called peaceful world, according to my opinion, is just a rich word......"
"The well-off is said to be a little rich, the people can have food and clothing, a little savings, the country can be enriched, and a little spare strength ......"
"And the peace is said to be rich, the people are rich, the small households still hide thousands of millet, every family has surplus money, meals can eat fish and meat, everyone can be taught by benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, know the order of the father and son of the monarch and the minister, so the old and the old, the young and the young...... The wealth of the country is unimaginable, there is an infinite amount of gold, and there is endless wealth and wheat corn...... No matter whether it is flood, drought, soup locusts, the earth shakes the mountains, and the disaster can save the people between fire and water......"
"At this time, the phoenix bird is in the dynasty, the river is out of the map, the Luo is out of the book, the rule of the Han is in the extreme, forever and forever, the children and grandchildren, from generation to generation, are too safe and healthy!"
"Therefore, I know that the mandate of heaven of the Han and the mandate of heaven of me are just in a rich country and rich people!"
After saying this, the Son of Heaven looked at his ministers, and he raised his head slightly, looking full of confidence.
These words came after a long time of deliberation and communication with many people.
In fact, these words are known to everyone in modern times, but no one dares to say the truth!
It's like a gray fairy tale, fools know that all etiquette, benevolence, and morality are fake and empty things.
From the people to the officialdom to the high-level, everyone is busy with wealth and nobility.
But no one ever spoke of it.
Especially when the emperor speaks out!
Not everyone wants to pretend to be stupid, but the risks and costs to be borne are too great!
More than 200 years ago, the Legalists relied on the single-handed 'rich country and strong army' to fight invincible opponents all over the world.
Eventually, the centuries-old turmoil was ended, the world was re-dominated, and a new world characterized by the county system and centralized power was established.
However, the speed of its collapse is just as astonishing!
The empire shaped by Yu Lie of Qin Renfen VII quickly collapsed after the death of Qin Shi Huang.
Even the old Qin people in their base camp chose to spurn the Qin court in the troubled times.
Qin's lesson is so profound!
So much so that the ruling class no longer dares to touch the relevant topics.
Even the rich country and the strong army did not dare to shout, so they had to replace it with some illusory theories that were purely addictive to paralyze the people.
But......
After a hundred years of development and operation, these things are no longer so easy to use.
Filial piety, benevolence, and morality can't resist the anger of an empty stomach and a hungry people.
Peasant uprisings and revolts have become a disaster in the southeastern counties, and even spread to the north.
In the past, neither the Son of Heaven nor the ministers could have come up with a way to deal with such a situation.
No explanation can be given either.
It can only be a strong suppression!
But everyone knows that repression can only cure the symptoms, not the root causes.
If the people really can't live anymore, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang will rise up and drag the whole country into hell!
At this moment, Xinfeng's mu yield of seven stones was earth-shattering!
This figure of yield per mu directly doubles or triples the highest record of average yield per mu in the world!
Combined with the theory of the three worlds, it is simply like cooking oil on fire, quickly sweeping the world.
From the public opinion circles and the court, it sinks directly into the village pavilion and the market.
It has become the expectation and hope of the people of the world.
It also gave confidence to today's king, who has reigned over the world for forty-seven years.
Let him ignite in his heart the same ambition as Qin Shi Huang, one line for all generations, and rule the world forever!
And to match this ambition, we can no longer treat the people of the world as fools, idiots, and paralysis as in the past!
Because, the reality has long been told to everyone - that is useless!
It can only be paralyzed for a while, but it cannot be paralyzed for a lifetime.
If the common people can't survive, they will rebel.
Benevolence, righteousness, morality, filial piety and etiquette, even those who believe in them may not really believe in them.
Therefore, it is necessary to change the way and the way.
When pinching the trump card of Xinfeng's yield of seven stones per mu, when today's son naturally knows how to use it to achieve the best effect and stabilize and strengthen the regime of the Liu Han family!
Not to mention, as long as it is properly promoted, the average yield per mu in the world is four stones!
This is equivalent to doubling the base of wealth in the world and doubling the income of the people!
It will have a wide and profound impact in the coming decades!
How can a good king turn a blind eye, how can he not think of a way to make use of it?
After listening to the words of the Son of Heaven, the ministers looked at each other.
Everyone knows what impact the words of the Son of Heaven will have.
Not to mention, from now on, I am afraid that the growth of the income of the people in the local areas under his administration will become a very large proportion of the performance evaluation data of the magistrates.
Correspondingly, the proportion of other aspects, such as moral and filial piety, will decline.
This is not the key, the point is that the whole atmosphere of the world will change accordingly.
From academia to the people, there will be turmoil and reshuffle!
And the court will become the hardest hit area!
Jiuqing's order and power will be shuffled.
The first to bear the brunt is naturally the big Si Nong and Shaofu, who are in charge of finance and taxation, and the prime minister who is responsible for commanding hundreds of officials.
I am afraid that these institutions will all have to be reorganized, and maybe even a new yamen and a new system will emerge to undertake the task.
While others are still thinking and pondering the implications and ripples of the matter.
Zhang Yue bowed down and said: "Your Majesty's words, from a high house, until the critical point, the minister hears it like a spring breeze, the minister is not good, he is willing to be His Majesty's cattle and horses, and this life is for His Majesty's wish to die, even if the cheap body fills the ravine first, there is no regret!" ”
Only then did the others come to their senses and hurriedly express their loyalty.
It's not that no one objected, and it wasn't that the words of the Son of Heaven really hit the hearts of the people and persuaded the Manchu Dynasty to be civil and military.
Instead, the soldiers and horses in Zhang Yue's hands and the authority held by the Son of Heaven persuaded the Manchu civil and military forces.
The weapon of criticism is never as good as the criticism of weapons!
At this time, today, he has already become the 'holy king' recognized by the whole world because of the aura of Xinfengmu producing seven stones and Jiahe all over the world.
Its authority has caught up with the heyday of the Yuan!
What's more, now that Zhang Yue has returned, the army he led is stationed outside the city.
This army, which had gone through an expedition of thousands of miles, penetrated the entire Huns.
It is a trump card that is enough to suppress and impeach all opposition forces!
And the world's public opinion and popular opinion will not support any opponents.
In such a situation, as long as someone dares to oppose it at this time, there is a slight objection.
Even if the Son of Heaven is generous and doesn't care about these, as long as he is out of this Weiyang Palace, the rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs of the people of Chang'an are enough to smash him to death!
Under the general trend, the thoughts and attitudes of individual people are insignificant at all!
The Son of Heaven looked at the scene in front of him and nodded secretly.
Enriching the country and enriching the people, this is the centralized government he came up with.
As long as he carries this banner and cooperates with certain political achievements, it is enough to sweep away all bulls, ghosts, gods and snakes, and directly push his historical status and image to the level of the three kings and five emperors.
In this way, all the counties and kingdoms of the world will dance with his baton.
The authoritarian power of the Han Tianzi will return to the grassroots.
Especially in the pavilion of the southeast place!
Plus......
"Zhang Zizhong ......" the Son of Heaven smiled, looked at Zhang Yue, and said: "Qing is the servant, assists the grandson, Bingzheng Xinfeng, makes the government harmonious, Jiahe is all over the field, and the yield per mu is seven stones......"
"For my envoy, holding the festival of the south, first defeated the Hun Ding Ling King, descended to the king of Guyan, and then waved the army over the bow Lu Shui, helped Hou Mountain and captured the rest of the mountain, took the Xiongnu Dragon City, Chan Guyan and then sealed the wolf Juxu Mountain, where more than ten battles, all fought and won, beheaded tens of thousands of captives, captured countless livestock people......"
"Reward the meritorious heroes, Jia Xianchen, the teaching of this ancestor is also! I don't dare to disobey ......"
"Shang Shuling ......" The Son of Heaven clapped his hands and said: "Announce the edict!" ”
"No!" Zhang Anshi, who had been standing beside him, heard this, and immediately took a gold-inlaid wooden box from the hand of a Shang Shulang beside him, and then took out an edict that had already been written, walked to the hall, and read aloud: "The servant Jianwen Jun Chenyi, for the servant to guard the Son of Heaven, for the industrious country, for the grandson of the auxiliary, dedication, dreaming of sleep, meritorious service; As a messenger, he was out of the house, personally pawned soldiers and horses, strategized, broke the Huns thousands of miles away, beheaded excessively, and captured nothing...... I'm so sad! Its vassals Yi is a hero, with 8,900 households, and its order is too often, and it is reported to the temple and listed before the ancestors......"
Zhang Yue listened, and hurriedly bowed his head and bowed again: "Your Majesty Longen, the minister has nothing to repay, and he is alone in broken bones to repay the king's kindness!" ”
But that's just the beginning.
The Son of Heaven clapped his hands, and there were two members of the clan, left and right from the hall, and were taken out.
On the left is Liu Qian, who waits for Liu Qian, who is the queen of Hejian; On the right is Dehou Liu Shan, after King Jing of Zhongshan.
They are all nephews of today's sons, and they are also representatives of the Beijing clan.
What's more – what they are holding in their hands is particularly conspicuous!
Liu Qian was holding an exaggerated axe in his hand, the body of which was plated with a distinct layer of gold, and almost everyone in this Xuanshu Hall knew it, but few people had seen it with their own eyes.
Because, its scientific name is Huang Yue!
It is a symbol of the king's power, and its status is higher than that of the Son of Heaven.
The holder itself is equivalent to a half-king!
What Liu Shan is holding in his hand is a bamboo pole decorated with a white yak tail.
This is also a very rare, rare, but well-known artifact - Bai Ming!
Just looking at this scene, everyone's hearts came to mind that they had all read it, and a passage of text that was ripe - Huang Yue on the left side of the king, and Bai Yu on the right!
This is the record in the "Book of Shang" and "Pastoral Oath", which describes the scene where King Wu granted the power to command the army to Jiang Shang.
And the appearance of these two artifacts, and the fact that they are personally held by two highly respected clan princes, is almost equivalent to confirming a long-standing legend - Zhang Zizhong will worship the general, and he is a permanent general!
The kind of general who can have Mofu and can command the army for a long time.
It is a general alongside the Great General, the General Wei, the General of the Che Cavalry, the General of the Hussars, and the General of the Second Division!
And this is even more surprising and surprising than the previous feudal marquis!
Because......
There are hundreds of princes of the Han family, and if you count the princes of the clan, I am afraid that there are thousands.
But the standing generals, throughout the ages, rarely have more than one.
The last time the empire had two permanent generals at the same time was back in the era of Wei Qinghuo's illness.
The last time again, it will be back to the founding of the country.
The status of the permanent general in the Han family is much higher than that of the prime minister.
Each of them is the leader of a faction or faction.
has enough power to influence the government, national policy, and even the world.
How much power does a permanent general have?
Take Li Guangli as an example, it is enough to be clear!
In Juyan, with the general of the second division, he ordered the four counties of Hexi to control the soldiers of Heshuo, Beidi, and Longyou counties.
Holding Huang Yue and Bai Xuan, he is in charge of conquest and betrayal, diplomacy and trade.
It's almost a soil emperor!
What's even worse is that from the story of Wei Qing Huo Quai, the ministers can know a detail - shortly after Huo Qubing rose, as soon as the decisive battle in Mobei ended, the general Wei Qing returned to the court, conquered power, and fell into the hands of Huo Quai.
Therefore, even if there is a rumor of it, people are mentally prepared.
However, when Huang Yue and Bai Xuan appeared at the same time.
And it was held by the two princes of the clan and dedicated to the Son of Heaven.
Countless courtiers are still shocked and inexplicable.
Especially Prime Minister Liu Quyu, his heart was extremely sour, surprised, and frightened.
Because......
He knows that in this struggle for power, he loses completely!
The Son of Heaven did not take his advice at all, nor did he even listen to him.
After His Majesty was rewarded with a high lord, he still insisted on elevating the rank and status of Zhang Zizhong's General Yingyang to a higher order than that of the second division general - worshipping the general with the princes of the clan holding Huang Yue and Bai Yang, which in the past, could only occur when worshipping the general, the Wei general, and the chariot general.
In other words, General Yingyang's status is at least on par with General Che Cai!
And the general of the chariot and cavalry, that is the commander-in-chief of the chariot and cavalry units of the Han family, in this today, when there is no captain, general, general Wei, and hussar general, is almost the supreme commander in theory!
