Volume 15 Han Ji VII (4)

The emperor made a mistake from the words, and entered the side, and the number of worshippers was the difference.

Chao Cuo once again said that His Majesty made the people go into the Su Plug to worship the lord, which is indeed a blessing for the benefit of the world. If the border food can support the five years old, the people can be sent to the county, and the county can support it for more than a year, and the emperor can order a regular amnesty, and no longer collect the peasants' taxes. In this way, the common people will be more diligent in farming,"

The emperor replied to his words. The edict said: "The road to guiding the people lies in the foundation." I am the leader of the world's farmers, ten years now, and there is no new farmland in the wild, once the age is not abundant, the people are hungry. This was because there were few farmers and the officials did not consider him a priority. I have issued several edicts, and every year I persuade the people to plant trees, but in fact the work has not been carried out, which is because the officials are not diligent in their edicts, and the people are not persuaded to know. Besides, my peasants are very miserable, but the officials cannot inspect the province in time, how can they persuade the farmers to cultivate the crops? Farmers will be exempted from half of this year's tax. “

In the spring of the thirteenth year, in February, Jiayin. The edict said: "I personally handsome the world's farming, in order to ensure that the dishes on the table are abundant, and the queen personally takes care of the mulberry fields, so as to ensure that the sacrificial clothes are always new, so that the country has long etiquette." Qin has a secret official, and once the country has any calamities, the fault will be blamed on him. Xia Zhao said that according to the principle of the cycle of heaven, disaster arises from resentment, and blessing is by virtue. The mistakes of the hundreds of officials are also caused by me, and the official of the current secretary has transferred the fault to his name, which is to show my lack of virtue. I will not take it, and now I will get rid of this official. “

Qi Taicang ordered Chun Yuyi to be guilty and should be sentenced to prison and arrested in Chang'an. His maiden Ti Ying wrote: "The concubine's father is an official, and all Qi Zhong calls him honest and peaceful, and now he is punished by the law, and the concubine who is sad and dead cannot be resurrected, and the tortured cannot be restored." Although I want to reform in the future, there is no way out. The concubine is willing to be an official maid. to atone for his father's sins, that he may be rehabilitated. “

The Son of Heaven took pity on him, and in May, he issued an edict saying: "The Book of Poetry says that the Kaidi gentleman is the parent of the people." Today's people have had, and the punishment has been added before the teaching, and they want to change their ways to good, but their way is not working. I am very sorry. The punishment is often to cut off limbs and cut skin, and cannot be changed for life. How painful and unvirtuous is the punishment? Is this the original intention of the parents of the people, from now on, abolish the law of corporal punishment and replace it with other punishments? Let the sinners be punished for the severity of their crimes, and if they have lived enough to avoid desertion, they can be exempted from their crimes. and shall be enforced by law. “

Prime Minister Zhang Cang. Imperial Doctor Feng Jing, please play the law order. He said: "Those who are black-faced will wear torture instruments and serve hard labor instead." and he that shall have his nose cut off shall be given three hundred lashes. The left toe should be cut off

, five hundred lashes. When the right toe is cut off, and the murderer first surrenders himself, the officials sit on the corrupt and pervert the law, and those who steal public property by themselves, and those who have already been convicted of the crime and commit another crime, they will all be abandoned from the market. If the sinner has already been sentenced to hard labor, he may be acquitted at the end of the term. “

The Son of Heaven said, "Yes." “

At that time, the emperor not only bowed to Xuanmo, but also the generals were all old heroes, less literature and more quality, punished the evil and died of Qin's government, discussed the affairs in the leniency, shamed the mistakes of people, turned the world, changed the custom of telling each other, the officials were peaceful, the people were happy, the accumulation of years, the population increased, and the people were generous, so the criminal law was a large province, as for the four hundred prisons, there was a wind of criminal error.

In June, an edict was issued saying that agriculture is the main task of the world, and now it is diligent and has the burden of taxation, which is to make the essence the same as the end. This is not good for the way of persuading farmers, and the tax on farmland will be abolished from now on.

Fourteen winters. The old Huns rode into the Xiao Pass at 140,000. Kill Duan Wei, the commander of the Northland. The people were plundered and the livestock was very large. Then to Pengyang. Make the strange soldiers burn back to the middle palace. The waiting riders all arrived at the Ganquan Palace in Yongdi. The emperor took Lieutenant Zhou Shelang as the general and ordered Zhang Wu to be the general, with a thousand cars and 100,000 cavalry, and garrisoned next to Chang'an to prepare for trouble. He also worshiped Changhou Lu Qing as the general of Shangjun. Ninghou Wei Qi was the general of the Northland. Longshu Hou Zhouzao was the general of Longxi and was stationed in three counties.

The emperor personally labored the army and exerted the army to apply for the religious order. Give the officials and pawns, and they will personally conquer the Huns. The ministers did not listen to their advice. The queen mother stubbornly obstructed, and the emperor gave up. So Zhang Xiangru, the Marquis of Dongyang, was the general, Dong Chi, the Marquis of Cheng, and Luan Bu of Neishi were all generals. Attack on the Huns. The Xiongnu remained in Sene for more than a month

and withdrew. The Han army chased out of the fortress, even if it returned to the army, it could not kill or inflict any casualties.
