Chapter 232: Traces of the Son of Heaven
In the 400 years of the Han Dynasty, there are countless loyal ministers and righteous people in the world. Although the Han family has endless shortcomings, and the people have suffered from the decay of the Han family, the people of the world still have no intention of overthrowing it and building a new one. At least Han Yi didn't mean this at all three years ago.
And like Han Yi three years ago, how many are there in the world? There are a lot of people who have been called emperors in these years, there are all sides in the east, south, west, and north, but they are only a few months and more than a year, and they were wiped out in one fell swoop, which shows the stubbornness of the world's hearts to remember the Han family.
Han Yi was able to quickly pacify the Central Plains, both good and bad. Fortunately, the Central Plains has suffered less damage, and the death and casualty rate is still acceptable. Today, there are 600,000 households in Yuzhou and 3.2 million in Dingkou. There are 410,000 households in Yanzhou and 2.5 million in Dingkou. There are 220,000 households in Xuzhou and more than 1.3 million in Dingkou.
In addition, there are 500,000 people in the three counties of Sili, 600,000 people in Bingzhou, 500,000 people in Nanyang, more than 400,000 people in Lujiang, 900,000 people in Yuzhang, and more than 200,000 people in Southern Xiongnu. There are tens of millions of people, which is enough to supply Han Yi with enough troops and materials to dominate the world.
The bad thing is that there are many people in the Central Plains who are oriented to the Han family, except for the people who are like Han Yi when they are weak and lonely, most of the later people are people who are oriented to the Han family. Since last year, the court made Taifu Ma Riyan and the servant Zhao Qi to comfort the Kanto, and after the Taifu Ma Riyan was ceremoniously received in Runan, he was accidentally drunk, and after drinking, he said that the Han Emperor intended to return to Luoyang, so in the past six months, some people have repeatedly persuaded him to send troops to the west to welcome the voice of the Han Emperor.
But what about after greeting the Han Emperor? Re-establish the court? His own merits can be a general, so who should take up the post of three princes and nine secretaries? With such a great reputation, a heart of loyalty, and this ability, there is no one in Han Yi's hands. At that time, it will inevitably fall to his family.
Han Yike is not good at political disputes, if he is in the court for a long time, he is afraid that he will repeat the footsteps of He Jin's brothers. Or let the Han Emperor stay in the hands of Li Guo and the others, and he should be able to do his own thing outside. So he shirked the past with the fact that Cao had just been destroyed and disaster relief this year. Just next year......
"Master, the locust corpse is a test of loyalty, and the results have been obtained. The army heard that the master's family was also eating locust carcasses, although there were objections, but there was no big problem, and they were all about the master's words. It's just that most of the officials in various places have complaints, and most of them are people of the noble clan. They usually pay attention to not getting tired of eating, how can they eat such disgusting things as locusts. ”
Lu Ping sent the roster book, and the names and positions on the list shocked Han Yi. Han Yi threw the roster in his hand and said, "There are also people who are loyal to me, but it is just a habit since childhood, which makes it difficult for them to accept." You pick out the powerful families with a lot of property and closely monitor them. If there is anything illegal, it will not be tolerated. As long as the nobles are not allowed to have a huge estate, and they are not allowed to take charge of the military, they will not be able to make big waves. ”
"The master is wise, military power is the foundation of the master's world, the scholar clan or something, it's better not to be too close."
Han Yi said: "Now that the Central Plains has been decided, the Wu forts that are lined up everywhere should also be demolished. In the newly built courtyard, the wall shall not exceed one zhang and two feet high, and the offender shall also be guilty of rebellion. Also, if the number of people is reduced by nearly half today, the nobles should release their slaves to the real place. Only two servants are allowed to be used per person, and only four servants can be used in the homes of high-ranking officials of 2,000 stones. The freed slaves are financed by the masters of each family and the local government in half to build their families......"
Lu Ping was taken aback and said, "Master, this matter is a matter that offends people at both ends." The demolition of the Wu Fort was a matter of course, but the noble families had long been accustomed to the service of a large number of slaves. And those who are slaves in your family are even more beautiful and inviable to outsiders. Even though the master let the government fully fund the placement of them, it is still rare for everyone to be heartfelt, not to mention that the master's family has to contribute half of it. ”
Han Yi said with a smile: "There are three thousand noble families with a large number of slaves? Can there be millions of slaves and miscellaneous servants? It would be nice to have a tenth of those who dare to rebel against this government, and I am about to take the opportunity to put the place in order, so that they will not have slave soldiers against me in the future. ”
Lu Ping immediately understood in his heart and responded: "Although this matter is difficult, it can be handled by me, and they will not be allowed to make too much movement." ”
Han Yi said: "The official private prostitutes in various places are incompetent, so that the women of good families become prostitutes. Those who cannot be daughters, wives, and mothers are the great sorrows of the world. Those who are officials should take the German character first, be an official for one day, and must not call prostitutes, and violators can be dismissed from office for moral corruption. ”
Lu Ping laughed and said: "Wonderful, wonderful, this move can make the officials from the sons of Shihao very sad, as soon as this policy comes out, there will be a small half of the officials who will reluctantly resign." ”
After thinking about it, Han Yi said: "Everyone loves beauty, and taking concubines and raising maids is also popular in the world." However, the difference in the number of men and women in the world is not too big, and the noble family can marry more, and the poor family will inevitably have no wife. Therefore, the common people can only take one wife, the officials and the rich can marry one wife and one concubine, the officials of a thousand stones can marry one wife and two concubines, the officials of two thousand stones can marry one wife and four concubines, and like me, they can only marry one wife and six concubines. Those who exceed this amount are required to pay a concubinage tax. More than one person, pay 100,000 yuan; more than two people, pay 300,000 yuan; Super Three; Pay 1 million dollars. This is a benevolent act that lustful people should have, and this money can be used exclusively to help the elderly and orphans, build bridges and pave roads. ”
Lu Ping smiled, although he didn't know what Han Yi's intentions were, he was also dissatisfied with those who had more than 100 wives and concubines, and they had to look for flowers and willows everywhere, and they were very unhappy with the people who claimed to be famous and famous, and it was okay to kill them in the limelight.
Han Yi suddenly frowned and said, "Recently, the grain in the counties and counties under my jurisdiction has been low, and merchants from all over the country still want to sit on the ground and raise prices, which will disturb the stability of the people under my jurisdiction. Thou hast told Echo to make some commercial laws to restrict them from doing whatever they want. If they provoke me, I will also have a thunderbolt to deal with them. ”
"......"
Since the battle to destroy Cao and eliminate locusts, Han Yi has completely settled and governed, and for a while, the war in Kwantung has almost completely disappeared. Yuan Shao didn't know Han Yi's moves, and Gongsun Zhan was defeated by Yuan Shao not long ago, with tens of thousands of casualties each, and the battle in Hebei was extinguished. Only Liu Bei was in Qingzhou and Beihai Taishou Kong Rong became the Qingzhou Thorn History, and Liu Bei was a different driver, commanding the soldiers of various counties to crusade against the Yellow Turban.
Qingzhou has gone through several Yellow Turban Rebellions, the county is broken, and the three million Qingzhou, at this time, it is good to have 700,000 or 800,000 Dingkou, and nearly half of them are in the plain county of Qingzhou where Tian Kai, Gongsun Zhan, served as the assassin of Qingzhou. Liu Bei wants to take Qingzhou as the base, and at most he only has more than 400,000 people, which is tantamount to self-defense. Han Yi didn't pay attention to him.
And Yuan Shu in Jiangdong has already obtained Danyang and Wu County, and only Huiji County is still struggling to hold on. When Yuan Shu heard that Han Yi had sent Qiu Rui to be the Taishou of Yuzhang and commanded 40,000 troops to train in Poyang, he immediately calmed down in disbelief. The people of Kanto finally spent a peaceful year because of this.
In the second year of Xingping, Hongnong came with a shocking news, which made Han Yi who was in Luoyang stunned for a while. Yu Hongnong, the Son of Heaven, suddenly disappeared?
In the first year of Xingping, Li, Guo, and Fan San generals controlled the government for a long time, and their opinions were different, so they were suspicious of each other in Chang'an City, and contradictions gradually arose. Li Wei was jealous of Fan Chou's bravery and won the hearts of the people, and secretly ambushed the samurai to assassinate Fan Chou in the seat. So the generals were even more suspicious of each other, and Li Dao and Guo Yan raised troops to attack each other.
Guo Yan and Yang Ding, the general of Anxi, once plotted to rob the emperor. When Li Dao heard the news, he rushed to welcome Emperor Xian to his camp. He also plundered the palace, robbed the palace gold silks, rides, clothes and other utensils, and then set fire to the palace, the official palace, and the private houses were destroyed for a while.
Emperor Xian sent more than 10 ministers such as Yang Biao, Sikong Zhang Xi and other ministers to Guo Biao to make peace, but Guo Biao did not obey and detained Yang Biao and others in the camp. Li Dao Guo Yan robbed the ministers, robbed the Son of Heaven, and attacked the two phases, continuously for months, and the dead were tens of thousands.
In May, Li Dao made himself the Great Sima, above the Third Duke. In June, Zhang Ji went from Shaanxi County, now Henan, to Chang'an to reconcile Li and Guo. He wanted to make Emperor Xian move to Hongnong. At this time, Emperor Xian also wanted to return to Luoyang, and sent an envoy to urge Li Dao, and the envoy went back and forth ten times. However, in the end, because Luoyang was in the hands of Han Yi, he couldn't make the trip.
At the same time, Li Dao's general Yang Feng defected, and the soldiers of Qiang and Hu recruited by Li Dao also dispersed due to the Han court's promise of rewards, and their strength was greatly reduced. So from Zhang Ji's discussion, he and Guo Yan each took women as hostages, and boycotted the army to make peace.
In July, Guo Yan proclaimed himself a general of chariots and cavalry, and opened a mansion like the third duke, and Li Wei led the army out of Tunchiyang. In the same month, Emperor Xian took Zhang Ji as the hussar general, Yang Ding as the rear general, Yang Feng as the Xingyi general, and Dong Cheng as the Anji general, and then moved east to Hongnong. However, after Emperor Xian returned to the east, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others immediately regretted it, so they joined forces with Zhang Ji to chase Emperor Xian.
When the armies of Xiliang were attacking Hongnong, the Han Emperor suddenly disappeared from Hongnong's army. To be exact, the real Han Emperor has long disappeared, but the stand-in of the Han Emperor is still in the camp, but it was finally broken.
Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Zhang Ji were furious, including Yang Ding, Yang Feng, and Dong Cheng, who had been guarding the Han Emperor, and other generals were also furious. The two sides then joined forces and tortured hundreds of officials, palace people and queens in every way, but everyone didn't know it.
Only when Empress Fu felt that Emperor Han was different, it was already when she passed the Tong Pass. However, it has been two months since then, and the real Han Emperor has long been missing. The generals of Xiliang thought about the people who could assassinate the Han Emperor, and there was no one else except Han Yi, who had garrisoned Luoyang early. And Han Yi has a criminal record, so the generals have to be suspicious.
The generals let people go to Chang'an again, and found that Wang Yang, who was stationed in the county, had 30,000 horsemen, and invaded Zuo Fengyi when the generals were fighting in Hongnong, and captured Chang'an City, which had become an empty city. There are 30,000 people in Hedong, and they are eyeing Dayang and Hebei. Coupled with Han Yi's army, which garrisoned 50,000 troops in Luoyang, the generals of Xiliang suddenly knew that they had already entered the cage.
