Chapter 56: Huo Xian passed away
In the middle of the night, in front of the Huo Mansion, crowded with the frame of the minister, when the Prime Minister Huo Guang asked for leave to report to the Shaofu Order, everyone received the news, after getting off work, they all went to the Huo Mansion to show goodwill to the most powerful prime minister after the Emperor Wu Chaotian Fen.
In the hall, all the ministers were silently drinking tea, and outside the hall, they were extremely busy, and the people were cautiously busy.
Huo Guang sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking at Huo Xian with a painful face on the bed.
Huo Xian is not Huo Guang's wife, Huo Guang's wife was chosen by his eldest brother champion Jinghou Huo Quai, and Huo Xian is his wife's concubine Teng, after his wife died, because of the birth of his eldest son Huo Yu, he straightened it out.
After more than 20 years of ups and downs, his wife, eldest brother, uncle, and aunt all left Huo Guang, and now Huo Xian has also left him.
I finally lived alone!!!!
The imperial doctor in the palace continued to work hard to heal Huo Xian, Huo Yu knelt beside the bed, looked at his parents, and felt sad in his heart, when he thought that his mother was about to leave the world, he burst into tears and twitched quietly.
Huo Xian heard Huo Yu's convulsions beside the bed, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and grabbed the sound, Huo Yu saw Huo Xian's movements, and quickly crawled towards his mother's hand, grabbed Huo Xian's hand and shouted sadly: "Mother, mother!" ”
Huo Xian looked at his eldest son, his eyes full of love. Any mother has a special affection for her first child, and pours all her love into it.
Huo Xian took Huo Yu's hand, looked at Huo Guang and said weakly: "Master, the concubine has been married to the master for decades, and she has been prosperous and rich all her life, and the concubine is about to pass away, the only thing to worry about is Huo Yu and Huo Zhu, ask the master to properly settle these two!" ”
Huo Guang looked at Huo Xian, looking at her looking at herself with hopeful eyes, Huo Guang nodded, Huo Xian saw Huo Guang's answer, and closed his eyes with joy.
The imperial doctor bowed and retreated, Huo Guang stood up, closed his eyes, eased his emotions, reopened his eyes, and prepared to start arranging the funeral of his deceased wife.
When Liu Xun's royal car arrived at Huo Mansion, Huo Mansion had been a plain pickaxe, Huo Guang led the ministers to wait quietly in the open space for the arrival of the Son of Heaven, Liu Xun walked off the carriage in the sound of kneeling, Huo Yu hurriedly stood behind the Son of Heaven after saluting, Huo Guang led the way in front, and Han Zeng led the ministers to follow him into Huo Mansion.
After coming to the hall, Liu Xun sat firmly in the main seat, and saw that Huo Yu still had tears on his face, and he couldn't bear it, and comforted: "The great filial piety in the service, but Mrs. Huo has just passed away, and things are complicated, and you have to ensure your body!" ”
Huo Yu heard the comforting words of the Son of Heaven and hurriedly thanked him.
Liu Xun got up and helped Huo Yu up, turned to the ministers and said: "I, grateful for the prime minister's achievements in assisting the Han family for decades, and named Mrs. Huo Xianhuo as the king of Pingling, and allowed to be buried with the rites of the marquis, Liu Yu, the king of Jiaodong, has just become an adult and has not yet married, Huo Zhu is the queen of Jiaodong, serving Huo Yu, filial piety to benevolence, honest and reliable, too Changqing Feng is not doubtful, over seventy years old, has been on the book to beg for the old, and now Huo Yu is too often, to show that I am the Han family benevolence and filial piety to govern the country, to the foundation of the country, to encourage the people of the world to be benevolent and filial!" ”
Hearing the canonization of the Son of Heaven, Huo Guang hurriedly knelt on the ground to thank him: "Your Majesty's kindness, the old minister has nothing to repay, Your Majesty is despicable, appointing the minister to a high position, and the soldier is a confidant who dies, and the minister will be smeared with liver and brain, and repay His Majesty's kindness!" ”
After a simple greeting, Liu Xun left Huo's mansion and drove back to Ganquan Palace, sitting in the car Liu Xun closed his eyes and recuperated, relieving the news of Huo Xian's death.
Originally, he received a notice from Zhao Chongguo, the order of Shaofu, that he should go to Huofu tomorrow to mourn, but when he heard that Huo Xian, the mastermind behind the killing of Xu Pingjun in his previous life, had passed away, Liu Xun couldn't sit still, and immediately took people to Huofu.
Huo Xian's death is beneficial and harmless to Liu Xun, but it also shows that Liu Xun's invincible memory of his past life will never be a hundred hits again.
As for Huo Yu's appointment, it is just a push boat, according to Huo Guang's merits, a too regular position is originally the proper meaning, and Huo Zhu's position as the queen of Jiaodong is just to prevent the ministers from using Huo Guang as an introduction and interfering with Xu Pingjun's queen's position, this is the original plan, but it was just announced by taking the opportunity of Huo Xian's funeral, so that Huo Guang could not object.
"Don't lose today!" Liu Xun muttered
After speaking, he leaned back on the chair, soothed his body, lay down lazily, and continued to calculate, and gradually Liu Xun fell asleep!
But the next day, Liu Xun's good luck came to an end, Han Zeng hurriedly put a piece of music in front of Liu Xun, and after reading the book, his head exploded.
What is the hardest problem to solve in China? Answer: Displaced people
There are only two kinds of ambitions who can change the dynasty in China, one is the wealthy family, such as Xiang Yu, Li Yuan and others
The second is hooligans, such as Liu Bang, Zhu Yuanzhang and others
The wealthy rely on the power in their hands, while the hooligans win without scruples and dare to take risks.
What is the source of the rights of the wealthy people? China is a large agricultural country, and the country has been built on agriculture since ancient times. Land is the only tool of production and the only cornerstone of rights.
But among the four people, the peasants were the most bitter. The Han family is an inheritance system, which is mainly divided equally among the sons, and even if it is a field property, there is not much left after the pass. After the land was subdivided, the large farmers became small farmers, and the production of land could no longer support the family.
Taxes were mainly paid on the fields, and the peasants were oppressed by harsh taxes. As a result, as Chao Cuo said in his recital to Emperor Xiaojing:
"Spring shall not shelter from the wind and dust, summer shall not shelter from heat and heat, autumn shall not shelter from rain, winter shall not shelter from cold winter, rest on the day of death, diligence and hardship are so, still recovered by the disaster of floods and droughts, from time to time, when the owner sells at half price, the deceased takes the interest of double the scale, so there are those who sell their fields and houses, and their descendants to repay debts.
And these people who have no land and nothing have no way out except to be homeless, which is why there are a large number of sons-in-law and sons in the world.
China has been a big agricultural country since ancient times, but China's agricultural cultivation level is also very backward. Technological naivety has hindered the development of productive forces, and the small area of individual cultivation is not conducive to technological improvement.
As a result, the peasants have no savings and can only repeat in one pattern, but the land is cultivated repeatedly, the land is overdrawn indefinitely, and the harvest is constantly decreasing.
During the period of Emperor Xiaowen, the harvest of 100 acres was not more than 100 stones, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the productivity increased, and the yield per mu was three stones, and the yield per mu in the Tang Dynasty declined, and the yield per mu was half a stone, and when it came to the Song Dynasty, with the words of Lu Huiqing, Tian Sui first came to four, five or six buckets.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China realized the evolution of its social system from a slave society to a feudal society, and began to transform from extensive agriculture to intensive agriculture in terms of agricultural production.
During this period, in the production process, intensive cultivation, combination of agriculture and animal husbandry, and the use of natural environmental conditions were used for production and operation. It does not use synthetic agricultural chemicals, and makes full use of organic fertilizer for soil fertilization, which makes the land more suitable for cultivation and prolongs the service life of the land. Agricultural and manual measures, such as planting more, increasing natural enemies, artificial capture, rational stubble and stubble, screening and planting disease-resistant varieties, etc., have been adopted to carry out diseases, insects and weeds, and gradually form an agricultural farming system that coordinates with the natural and natural environment.
Due to the rise of the Xiongnu nomads outside the Saiwai, the confrontation and integration of farming and herding culture became the main content of this period. With the great efforts of the monarch, the centralized system was further consolidated, the feudal production relations were formally established, the construction of large-scale farmland water conservancy projects, the popularization of iron plough and ox farming, and the maturity of the dry farming technology system in the north laid a solid foundation for the development and progress of Han agriculture.
The popularization of wheat and the change of crop structure, the maturity of the dry farming technology system in the north, the popularization of iron plough ox farming, the prosperity of animal husbandry, the opening and development of the Silk Road, the development of food culture, and the advent of large-scale comprehensive agricultural books.
The contradiction between man and land has become a basic national condition that must be dealt with. Under the pressure of population, the land utilization rate of the Han dynasty has increased significantly, and agriculture has developed towards more refinement. The unprecedented expansion of agricultural areas must promote the development of new agricultural areas. The third upsurge of seed introduction has changed the basic crop and dietary structure in China, and the traditional agricultural science and technology system has fully matured.
However, military service and conscription are policies that are destructive to agricultural development and must be corrected. Because military service and conscription will reduce the labor force in the short term, and the reduction of labor force in the short term will also mean a reduction in agricultural production. And the increase in taxes means that the burden on the farmers increases, because in the short term, the labor force of a peasant household is limited, and the output is limited, and the increase in taxes means that the peasants will go hungry. Under the conditions of starvation, the peasants naturally refused to actively cultivate the land, and agricultural development became an empty word. So what are the policies that support agricultural development? The general policy is to reduce the age of military service and reduce the number of years of military service. If we go further, it is to vigorously build water conservancy and establish Yicang.
There is also the issue that should not be underestimated, as the natural light economy of self-sufficiency, combined with small agriculture and cottage industry, occupies a major position in the overall social economy. The antagonism between peasants and landlords became sharper, and society became more and more chaotic.
Protecting yeoman farmers is the basic national policy of the Han Dynasty, but it is also urgent to correctly guide industry and commerce....................
