Chapter 117: Legal System
Emperor Xiaowu just didn't want to wipe his ass and mud like this anymore, so he simply flipped the table and borrowed the story of Emperor Gao's beheading of the white snake. Changed the dynastic attribute of the Han family to Huode.
In fact, this can be regarded as the same rogue behavior as Emperor Gao Liu Bang.
Because, the legal system of the Zhou room is Huode!
The first reincarnation of the five elements of reincarnation has not yet ended, and it directly jumps to the end of the second reincarnation. Emperor Xiaowu is really undisciplined.
Liu Xun's discipline, although it is less than that of Emperor Xiaowu.
However, he didn't want to play like that.
This is because ......
Whether it is Emperor Xiaowu's later change of the dynastic attributes of the Han family, or a group of people in the current society who advocate that the Han should be a native virtue or a fire virtue.
Their purpose is that the drunkard's intention is not to drink, but to change the color of the country!
In Liu Xun's opinion. No matter how funny Liu Bang's behavior was back then.
However, it is not wrong to define the Han family as a water virtue.
And the legal system is the source of everything, the core of the law.
Once the legal system is changed, it is almost certain that the country will change color.
Liu Xun didn't want the empire under his rule to become a paradise for landlords and a paradise for the elite to carnival.
As a traverser, as an emperor, Liu Xun naturally maintained 120,000 vigilance against all bureaucrats and landlords, and even more sneered at the so-called village sages and gentlemen.
He knew what would happen once he was taken control of by the landlords and bureaucrats.
So......
When Liu Xun led the ministers and walked straight into the Black Emperor Temple in the north of Yongxian County, he held his head high and looked admiring.
Even if the comic comparison of the Black Emperor Temple is untenable in logic and tradition, so what?
My Han has its own national conditions here!
Wait for the scum, shut up all of them!
Raising his head, Liu Xun looked at the gilded Black Emperor Dharma Body and bowed slightly.
The Dazai official in the temple immediately took the people in the temple and brought a foal.
During the Qin and Han dynasties, there were still some ancient relics of worshipping the gods, and all living creatures were used to make sacrifices, which were for blood food.
And the sacrifice of the five emperors, according to tradition, is all made of horses as sacrifices.
It was not until after the Eastern Han Dynasty that it was changed to a Trojan horse sacrifice.
The foal was soon killed by Dazai, the blood flowed into the altar, the incense lingered, and the ritual began.
During the Qin Dynasty, the temple of the five emperors, the main sacrifice of the White Emperor, the other three emperors, the king did not come in person, but appointed ministers to go, the Han family was the same, only the main sacrifice of the Black Emperor, and the other four emperors sent ministers to go.
While the King of Qin worships the White Emperor and wears a white shirt, while the Han family worships the Black Emperor, and the Emperor meets with a black crown.
But the state system of the two dynasties is the same, and even the sacrificial messages are almost the same......
Until the end, the whole sacrificial process was normal, that is, there were no miracles and no auspicious luck.
This made the accompanying few lieutenants a little surprised, and the originally typed abdominal draft in their stomachs swallowed back raw.
Liu Xun glanced at the aristocratic ministers who had strange appearances, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Xiangrui cheats this kind of thing, Liu Xun will not want to play anymore until the critical moment in the future.
Even Westerners know that God's is God's, and Caesar's is Caesar's, as a secular regime since ancient times, Liu Xun doesn't want to make the Han family into a country of gods and gods.
Moreover, Xiangrui's kind of thing is only suitable for brushing prestige in the weak.
When the power is in hand, whether it is auspicious or calamity, it is not very important.
As for Feng Chan or something, this kind of thing that costs the people and money, Liu Xun is not even more interested.
After the sacrifice was over, Liu Xun's car returned directly to Jianzhang Palace.
However, the courtiers did not end the debate because Liu Xun returned to Chang'an, on the contrary, Chang'an was like a theater throughout December of the first year.
One script after another, constantly staged.
The government and the opposition began to hype up the matter of the salt and iron order.
Everyone's focus is, who should be in charge of this salt and iron division!
In this matter, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Shaofu broke the dog's brain and fought the lawsuit all the way to Liu Xun.
In today's world, the benefits of salt and iron are huge, as long as you are not blind, you can see it.
In the face of interests, the ruling and opposition factions quickly took sides, and the distinction between the two sides was clear.
It seems that Huo Guang, as the minister of Gu Ming, has indisputably become the banner figure of the group of princes and heroes, and it seems that he has a greater chance of winning.
But alas, the end result is that people have lost their glasses - if they have them.
Shaofu succeeded in having the last laugh and brought the Salt and Iron Division under his control.
And the final result of this matter also made Liu Xun feel scared.
Although it is said that the salt and iron division is under the control of the Shaofu, this is expected.
But the group of heroes of the Liehou was defeated too quickly!
Before Liu Xun even stood up to mediate, they collapsed, and even many people simply raised the white flag and surrendered to Shaofu.
On the surface, the defeat of the liehou group led by Huo Guang seems to be because the Empress Dowager Shangguan of the East Palace successively summoned the ministers led by Huo Guang to give lectures, showing the rules and traditions of the ancestors, forcing the liehou group to admit defeat by itself.
But......
How can politics be such a simple thing?
The Queen Mother admonished, and the Liehou civil official group obediently admitted defeat?
Obviously, many people, even the vast majority of nobles and ministers, do not want the hand of the Prime Minister's Mansion to stretch too long and the Prime Minister's power too much.
If a person like Huo Guang regains financial power, he can govern as he pleases.
Then others are still playing hairy, Huo Guang will immediately become the Yi Yin and Zhou Gong of the Han family, and the power is above everything.
Not to mention the nobles and ministers, Liu Xun has to secretly stumble.
It's just that politics is so ridiculous.
Wait until Huo Guangzheng
After the failure to seize the control of the Salt and Iron Division, Liu Xun felt that the Salt and Iron Division was placed in the Shaofu and fed by wolves, which was a big problem.
Therefore, Liu Xun sold his relatives and Shaofu's interest groups very undisciplinedly.
However, Liu Xun believes that with the ability and tenacity of the civil and official group, they will definitely put the salt and iron division in the air in the future and monopolize the salt and iron affairs by themselves.
This is the nature of the civilian clique.
Taking advantage of the power of the Son of Heaven, Huo Guang, who pulled back a game, seemed to have accepted the situation and made no further moves.
But Liu Xun knew that this donkey's grudge was not inferior to that of others.
Moreover, the Han people have always paid attention to repaying virtue with virtue and repaying grievances with straightforwardness.
Some people, I'm afraid, will soon be unlucky.
Sure enough, after the Shuowang court meeting in December, the government and the opposition were as lively as rushing to the market.
On the ninth day of December, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial Commander Yamen attacked hard.
Fan Hou Cai Ru was impeached for several crimes such as 'entering Shanglin Yuan without obtaining the holy decree and entering Shanglin Yuan without a slave', 'illegally selling a farm house, and bribing officials'.
None of these charges are a big deal.
In the Han Dynasty, there was no illegal buying and selling of the land and mansions, and as for taking slaves into Shanglin Yuan, although this was illegal, it was not very serious.
It is probably the same as the central government of the Celestial Empire in later generations, officials are not allowed to eat and drink at public expense, but officials still eat and drink at public expense, which is the norm.
But Cai Ru was unlucky, because his appearance was too ugly.
Who called him the first to surrender in the liehous?
Therefore, if he does not die, there is no reason.
What's even more tragic is that the Fan Hou family is actually a marginal figure of the Liehou group, even if Cai Ru and his ancestor Cai Jian are actually not the old brothers who followed Liu Bang to fight the world, but the leaders of the local forces who came to vote after Liu Bang's foundation was initially decided, and they surrendered with the Suiyang Order of the Qin State.
Therefore, Cai Ru's 'evidence of guilt is conclusive', and there is no doubt that he was stripped of his title and demoted to a commoner again.
This is still the reason why Huo Guang kept his hand.
Originally, based on the principle of shooting the first bird in the political struggle of the Han Dynasty, Cai Ke would have burned high incense if he was not carried a 'private armor soldier and plotted against him'.
But the other two unlucky ones weren't so lucky.
Wuhou Yangdong sat on the murder of Ji's father and was sentenced to abandon the city.
Zhongmu waits for the end of the single, sits on the murder, the capital crime, and the country is removed.
A large number of Qianshi officials were also implicated in these cases and were driven home to farm.
Huo Guang shocked the entire government and the opposition with thunderous means, and at the same time told others that if you want to be a second or fifth boy, do you have that fate?
So, the princes who came to their senses woke up one after another and went to the Marquis of Bowang's mansion overnight to apologize.
Huo Guang also knew that this matter could only end here, and if he continued to play, he would be angry and resentful, so he would accept it when he saw it.
But Liu Xun was quite regretful.
There are too many liehous, these guys have as few as a thousand households, and as many as ten thousand, and they don't produce, except for a few elites, most of them know how to fight cocks and lackeys and play with women.
Therefore, Huo Guang killed these liehous, in fact, to treat the Han family and pull out those tumors with sores.
It's just that Wuhou is a pity!
Yangdong's ancestor Yang Chengyan was the strongest craftsman in the Han dynasty at that time, and he was also the world's first civil engineer.
Weiyang Palace, Changle Palace, and even the actual builder of Chang'an City are this person.
And the title of Wuhou also came from this.
However, Liu Xun couldn't save him!
Murder Ji's father, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't save him!
Liu Xun had no choice but to send Han Zeng to the Tingwei Prison, and then Han Zeng brought back more than 30 volumes of Yang Chengyan's experience and notes when he built Weiyang Palace, Changle Palace and Chang'an City.
After obtaining these classics, Liu Xun issued an edict to pardon Yangdong's two concubines, which can be regarded as leaving a little blood and incense for the Yang family.
Huo Guang's side had just calmed down, and the imperial historian Wei Xiang's side was making a commotion again.
For three days in a row, Wei Xiang's imperial historian Yamen kept writing to impeach the kings of Beijing, and he couldn't go away, and it was not done by the ministers!
Liu Xu, the king of Guangling, and others immediately went to the thank you table, confessed, and resigned at the same time.
In the Han system, the princes invited the Son of Heaven to stay in Beijing for two months at most.
Thinking that Liu Chang, the king of Huainan Li, had been in Chang'an City for three or four months, and the discussion between the government and the opposition was boiling.
Taking advantage of this chaos, Liu Xun struck while the iron was hot and took the opportunity to launch a policy that he had been planning for a long time.
On December 13 of the first year, Liu Xun asked for instructions from the East Palace, and issued an edict to order the world to cover the ancient holy king to rule the world, three generations of different laws, and the five emperors did not return to each other. Therefore, Zhong Ni is far away from the Dinggong, mourns the public to discuss the ministers, and Jinggong uses it sparingly. Sima Fa said that if you forget to fight, you will be in danger, and if you are warlike, you will die. Although China is safe and unsubdued, there is Wei Joseon in front of him, arrogant and arrogant, killing Han subjects, and the Xiongnu, Chen Ge Great Wall, Hetao, fallen into the hands of the Xiongnu, it has been more than 70 years, all loyal ministers and filial sons, all heartbroken!
Poetry and clouds are martial arts, the dry city of the country!
Today, the martial arts defend the country, protect the family and state, and bravely kill the enemy, and there are many disabled and inferior to the king's teacher, but the pension received cannot support the parents, and the wife and the child cannot be raised.
The poem is not cloudy, the heart is miserable, and the country is abused.
Its messengers, servants, embroidered clothes, toured the world, asked about the disabled and killed due to the king's affairs, said that the emperor's envoys and other loyal ministers and filial sons, gave silk cloth, money and rice. The wounded were three stones per month, the crippled were doubled, and the deceased was given two horses and five hundred. If there is a dereliction of duty, the messenger will hear about it, and the county and township will supervise it, and there will be no loss.
The pavilion is long, the lizheng, living in the township, guiding the people to courtesy, and the wind to be happy. Today's ritual music is broken, and I am very reckless! And the retired generals, the disabled people, have been in the army for a long time, and they have ordered the county from now on, where the pavilion chief and the right choice, the first to fill the disabled due to the king's affairs, and then to the retired soldiers, in order to praise the heart of the loyal minister.
This edict was first born in December of the first year.
The meaning of this edict was simple and easy to understand, and after it was issued, the government and the opposition cheered.
Although some people pointed out worriedly, from now on, I am afraid that it will be the martial arts who will be the country, and Sven will be swept away.
But there are few people
Bird him.
Because, in essence, the current Han dynasty is a semi-militaristic and semi-feudal regime.
From top to bottom, basically everyone has military experience, even relatives and nobles.
The civil official group, which was so huge in later generations that even the imperial power had to bow its head, was now just a small point attached to the interests of the princes' relatives.
Their voices, basically no one cares.
Moreover, in today's situation, after the Wu Chu Rebellion, the military general group has flourished again.
In the imperial court, seventy percent of the three dukes and nine kings are military generals or some people in their families are military generals.
The remaining few people, such as Yuan Ang and Chao Cuo, are also mainly allies of the military general group.
It's just that......
After the edict was issued, Liu Xun himself was also a little afraid, and Han Zeng sighed to the Shangshu that recorded the edict, "I'm afraid I'm going to release a terrible monster, so help me watch it, pick up the gaps, and don't make a big mistake!" ”
Since the first year of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, the Han family has been committed to moving towards a civilian government.
In particular, a series of policies represented by Wei Xiang's policy of donating millet to the emperor were aimed at weakening and reducing the power and status of the martial arts.
However, Liu Xun's edict kicked the Han family, which had already begun to advance towards the civilian government, back into the embrace of militarism.
Moreover, Liu Xun did more than the Qin Dynasty.
The pavilion is long and the inside, although it seems inconspicuous.
However, with a little knowledge, you know that the pavilion chief and Li Zheng in this place are equivalent to a golden rice bowl for drought and flood protection.
As long as you use a little snack, you will definitely be able to make a family live a well-off life from now on, and the more powerful ones are even the local emperors.
In the past, these positions were privately granted by officials at all levels, such as county guards and county magistrates.
Basically, they are all served by their own relatives and henchmen and even dogs.
It is also one of the carrots thrown out by officials at all levels to motivate their subordinates.
And after Liu inquired about this edict, the positions of pavilion chief, Li Zheng and other positions were about to be covered by the Wufu Group.
Those lieutenants, generals, and even captains and captains, who doesn't have a personal soldier or a brother who has died?
On the battlefield, there are no eyes for swords and guns, and it is difficult to protect the disabled and even killed.
In the past, the wounded and disabled soldiers and comrades who died in battle, everyone could only fight for a bereavement treatment at most, and those who were close to each other could take care of their juniors at most and help one or two.
Like Zhao Chongguo, Xu Xiangru and others, most of their money and fiefdom money were taken up to help the orphans and disabled of the fallen soldiers.
And now, with this edict, I'm afraid these people will not be able to bear it and benefit their subordinates openly.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.
And with the local pavilion chiefs and Li Zheng, they gradually became disabled and retired soldiers.
The entire Han dynasty will become a war machine even more terrifying than the Qin Dynasty.
Liu Xun has an extremely clear and clear understanding of this.
But he can't help it!
Since ancient times, China has been the imperial power that does not go to the countryside.
There is only one freak like the Qin Dynasty.
Even the Han family, in fact, the grassroots government only reached the township level.
If you go down, you have to rely on the cooperation of the three elders and the local squires.
Even, two thousand years later, when the dynasty ruled for sixty years, the term 'Xiangxian' had to be mentioned again.
What is the so-called village sage?
Anyone who knows anything about history will be familiar with it.
These people are the demons who eat and don't spit out bones.
The creators of the so-called dynastic cycle law are half God, and half are these people.
Liu Xun does not want the country he rules to become a paradise for 'village sages', so he can only release the monster of militarism.
At least, Liu Xun felt that militarism was much better than the landlord squire leading the beasts and cannibals!
On the other hand, it is not wrong to take veterans and disabled soldiers as the most basic managers of the local government, not to mention the side, at least in terms of martial arts.
What's more, disabled veterans, after being tempered by the army, whether they have vision or insight, must be stronger than those rich people who live in the countryside.
Leave aside whether their conscience would be a little better than that of the landlords and squires.
But at least, there are two levels of existence between the knowledgeable and the uninformed.
Moreover, three or five years later, Liu Xun's layout was completed, and the local grassroots pavilion chiefs and Li Zheng were replaced by retired disabled soldiers, and at that time, the mobilization law could be promulgated to realize that all the people are truly soldiers!
Although there were so many plans and plans, Liu Xun still felt uneasy.
The martial forces are too strong, and all emperors will instinctively be uneasy.
But after thinking about it, Liu Xun laughed: "Compared with the military general group, the civilian official group is the real monster, I immediately released the civil official group by examination, if I don't release the military generals to check and balance, the future Han family, will it have to become a soft-footed shrimp?" ”
Thinking about it like this, Liu Xun felt much more comfortable.
Liu Xun kicked the Han government back to militarism.
Guanzhong and the northern counties naturally chanted the Son of Heaven and sympathized with the people.
But the South is different.
The north is the base camp of the warriors, but also the front line of the Xiongnu pressure, for decades, the landlords in the north are strong, the official family has actually been integrated with the military general group.
After nearly a thousand years, the Guanlong military generals group was one of the main forces that determined the fate of the dynasty and the rise and fall of the world.
But the south has been peaceful for a long time, and the Huns and Yidi are far away from them.
There is no pain in the invasion of foreign enemies.
The only thing on the minds of the local powerful landlords is how to annex more land and gain more wealth.
The northern scholars, the heirloom is to get rich at the end, to keep it, to use all the force, and to hold it with the text.
But in the south, things fell for the worse.
