Zhang Ou is a benevolent elder, what is Zhi? He was the first cool official in the Western Han Dynasty to suppress the lawless and powerful with strict punishment and maintain the feudal order.

Zhidu served as a Lang official during the time of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and was an attendant of Emperor Wen.

In the era of Emperor Jing, Zhidu became a lieutenant general, dared to speak directly to the court, and impressed people in front of the court.

After Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty appointed Zhidu as the Taishou of Jinan, Jinan County Road was not left behind.

Zhidu was promoted to the rank of lieutenant, and the first severe criminal law was imposed, so that the law enforcement was not afraid to avoid the powerful and the imperial family, and even the princes and the people of the imperial family had to look sideways when they saw him, calling him "goshawk".

Zhidu was later deposed and dismissed for offending the Empress Dowager Dou, and was later appointed as the Taishou of Yanmen.

When the Huns heard that Zhidu was guarding the border, they led their troops to leave the border of the Han Dynasty, and they did not dare to approach Yanmen until Zhidu died.

Empress Dowager Dou finally executed Zhi Du in accordance with the laws of the Han Dynasty.

Later generations put him alongside famous generals such as Lian Po and Zhao Hao of Zhao during the Warring States Period, and was known as "the general of the war and the minions of the country".

Zhang Ou doesn't like Zhidu, but he can't deny Zhidu's ability, coupled with the weight of the Son of Heaven and Prime Minister Tao Qing's recommendation, Zhidu's return to Chang'an is a foregone conclusion, he had to say: "There are no vacancies in the three princes and nine kings, why does Tao Gong want to use Zhidu?" ”

"The Son of Heaven wants to use Zhidu as a lieutenant." Although this is what Tao Qing meant, he still said so.

The lieutenant is different from the modern one, also known as the ruling Jinwu, with two thousand stones in the ranks, and is in charge of the troops in the gate of the Beijing Division, patrolling for the Beijing Division to prepare for thieves, and the emperor is the forerunner when he goes out on patrol, and he is one of the secretaries of the columns, and he is valuable and prominent.

Zhidu is a perfect lieutenant.

"How does Lieutenant Chen Jia arrange it?" Zhang Ou asked.

Lieutenant Chen Jia has been conscientious for many years, and he is a subordinate of Shen Tujia and Tao Qing, if he does not make reasonable arrangements, I am afraid it is difficult to say.

"Chen Jia is the imperial historian, I have already talked to him." Tao Qing said lightly.

Although Yu Shi Cheng is not one of the Nine Qings, he is the deputy Yu Shi Dafu, the courtiers in the capital and the northern and southern armies, and the captains of the colonels, and he is also a high-ranking position.

The current imperial history doctor is Chao Cuo, Chen Jia and Chao Cuo have always had a gap, although they are not as good as Yuan An, but they are not far behind, let him be the deputy imperial historian, can mix sand for Chao Cuo, he will definitely be happy to go.

Think about it again, Zhidu is a Legalist, and Chao Cuo is also a Legalist, but don't think that in this way, Zhidu will not find trouble with Chao Cuo.

The people of the Legalist family do not recognize the law enforcement of the six relatives, and they pay attention to "governing by the law", "do not close to each other, do not distinguish the noble and the lowly, and break the law", "the monarch and the ministers are all subordinate to the law", "the law is not noble, and the rope is not bent", "the punishment does not avoid the minister, and the reward is not spared." ”

Therefore, once Zhidu served as a lieutenant, then the first shot he fired must have been Chao Cuo, because Chao Co broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion and forced Cao to death, which was obviously lawless.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ou's gaze at Tao Qing was a little different, this good old man, is it really a good old man?

If Zhang Ou is from modern times, he must know one sentence, that is, dogs that can bite people do not bark.

The two talked a few more words, and then got up and went to court.

········

"The princes of the ancients are only a hundred miles, and the shape of strength and weakness is easy to make. Today, the princes or dozens of cities, thousands of miles of places, slow is arrogant and extravagant, and it is urgent to prevent it from being strong and subordinate to the Beijing division. ”

"Now that the law is cut, the reverse will sprout, and the rebellion of the king with a different surname the day before yesterday is also. Now the children of the princes or tens, and the right heirs to stand, although the rest of the flesh and bones, no size of the land sealed, then the way of benevolence and filial piety is not declared. ”

"May Your Majesty order the princes to push the brothers of the Grace and the Princes of the land. Everyone is happy to get what they want, and they are divided into countries with virtue, and they are not cut but slightly weaker. ”

Above the court, Chao Cuo talked eloquently, which had the meaning of standing out from the crowd and leading the way.

Emperor Jing, who knelt down on the top, showed a look of surprise in his eyes when he heard the words, this article is more practicable than the previous article "Cutting Feudal Strategies", after all, relatives and relatives are hidden, one person has attained the Tao, and the idea of chicken and dog ascending to heaven has existed since ancient times, and it is a big market.

Even if the princes and kings had objections, they did not dare to oppose them explicitly.

Because the clan is the foundation of a force, and it is also the condition for a person to gain a foothold and survive.

Emperor Jing was just about to speak, Lieutenant Chen Jia Huoran got up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a question and wants to consult Doctor Chao." ”

Seeing that this posture was the rhythm of the battle, but Emperor Jing was not easy to stop, so he had to wave his hand to signal him to speak.

Chen Jia saw Emperor Jing's permission, so he said: "Dare to ask Doctor Chao, do you want to learn from the princes and small kingdoms of Qin and Chuhu?" ”

"In the past, there was "Cutting the Domain", and now there is "Tui En Order", the imperial court policy changes every day, where is the majesty? Doesn't it make the whole world laugh at it? ”

Chao Cuo raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said disdainfully: "As long as it can be beneficial to the court and Your Majesty, what if it is a change in the imperial order?" ”

Although this sentence is very ugly, and many ministers in the DPRK and China are a little disdainful, they still have to maintain their agreement on the surface, yes, this is the so-called general direction, which is related to the correctness of their own line and policy.

Chen Jia has a lot of experience in the struggle, of course, he will not be wrong, and said with a sneer: "What Doctor Chao said is extremely true, but the imperial court's decree to cut down the six counties of Changshan County of King Zhao, King of Jiaoxi, Donghai County and Xue County of King Chu, Yuzhang County and Huiji County of King Wu, and change the thirty decrees of the princes' kingdom has passed the court meeting of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now..." ”

Chen Jia looked up at the sky, and then said: "I'm afraid that now the decree has been clearly spread to the world, and it is difficult to recover it when it is covered with water, not to mention the words of the Son of Heaven." ”

Emperor Jing and the others couldn't help frowning when they heard this, obviously thinking about this problem.

"Haha!"

There was a burst of laughter in the lobby, and Emperor Jing regarded it as a mistake, and couldn't help but say, "Why is the Chao Qing family laughing? ”

"Your Majesty, please forgive the sin of arbitrariness." Chao Cao bowed down and said, "The minister has already had a premonition of this, so he has gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to retrieve the holy edict before the early dynasty. ”

"So what Lieutenant Chen is worried about, hehe, you don't have to, you have your own decision." Chao said contemptuously.

Everyone in the court was shocked again, no one expected Chao Cuo to be so bold, not only to take the edict without permission, but also to get it across the line.

Chen Jiadu stopped talking, but looked at Prime Minister Tao Qing who was kneeling at the head of the hundred officials, even Emperor Jing was no exception.

The prime minister is in charge of the government, reconciles yin and yang, goes up to the king, and cares for hundreds of officials, especially the prime minister at this time, but he is really one person under ten thousand people.

Now it is not a single person who tramples on mistakes, but a system.

I saw Tao Qing caressing his clothes, kneeling there and arching his hands and saying lightly: "Your Majesty, what Dr. Chao did was not wrong, he was in a hurry, especially this kind of thing that concerns the world, it's just... Alas! ”

"Just what?" Jingdi Qi Dao.

Seeing this situation, Chao Cuo's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he felt as if he had neglected something.

"It's just that the Prime Minister's Mansion played Cao Zhengyin because of the disadvantage of guarding the holy decree, and he was afraid that His Majesty would blame him, so he had already taken poison and tried to commit suicide to apologize, but fortunately he found it in time, although his life is worry-free now, but it is not far away!"

"Alas! What a pity for a man who is diligent in the king's affairs and devoted to his duties. Tao Qing sighed, tears even flowed from the corners of his eyes, and people who didn't understand might think that Zheng Yin was his father!
