Chapter 156: What is Dismounting?

Wu Amaranth took over the Qinglou business, and the Shadow Organization also fully moved into the Qinglou, and after Jin Liang's instructions, they carried out a comprehensive brainwashing education for the women in the Qinglou, eliminated the hatred of Jin Liang and the Central Army in their minds, and then developed the Shadow Messenger among the people who were more successful in brainwashing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Although those children of the family know that this Qinglou is a central military industry, they are wary when they come in, but they can't resist the temptation of the wine and beauty, and often confide in some truths when they are drunk or happy, and soon there will be a shadow messenger to pass the information to Wu Amaran, Wu Amaranth sorted out and then quickly reported to Jin Liang, if you want to take action quickly, Jin Liang instructed Guo Jia's dark department to follow up and quickly start action, but the premise is that the Qinglou cannot be exposed.

As for the pairing of the officers and soldiers of the Central Army with the singers in the shadow organization, Jin Liang was bored, out of reminiscence of the life of the later generations, and carried out a large-scale blind date activity in the Central Army, which was very successful, and all the hundreds of leftover women in the shadow organization became the daughters-in-law of the Central Army.

The bodies of Li Cheng and the other four people hung high in the city of Xiangyang, and the underneath of them were all cut off, blurred, and the entire Jingzhou shook. Those big families trembled, especially when they heard that Jin Liang confiscated the enemy's female family members into the red powder camp and the green building, and castrated the enemy's male family members, they had encountered this kind of unscrupulous viciousness, and the old guys who didn't take Jin Liang in their eyes were clouded in their hearts.

Jin Liang clearly showed his attitude, you can be hostile to me, you can rebel. As long as you can stand my revenge. As long as you are not afraid, your wives and daughters will be oppressed by thousands of riders. As long as you are not afraid to cut off your children and grandchildren. Jin Liang's posture is more like being barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, anyway, there are only a few people in my family, which is convenient for transfer, unlike your century clan with hundreds of direct family members, plus at least a few thousand other side branches, fighting for bloody revenge, can you fight Lao Tzu?

"Xianting, it's cruel for you to do this. It really violates Confucius's way of leniency. After Jin Liang had just taken revenge on those families, the palace and cabinet of the Son of Heaven quickly got the news, and hurriedly recruited Jin Liang into the palace, the Queen Mother, the Son of Heaven and the other five auxiliary ministers stared at Jin Liang, and Taifu Lu Zhi, as Jin Liang's master, was obliged to ask first.

"The disciple wants to ask the teacher, what crime did they commit by leading the troops to attack the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother, and what punishment should be given according to the laws of the Han Dynasty?" Jin Liang was calm. asked indifferently.

"They led troops to attack the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother, which is a crime of rebellion. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, this is a great unforgivable crime and should be punished by the nine clans. ”

Jin Liang smiled slightly and said, "Is it cruelty to punish the nine clans, or is it only cruel like me?" ”

Those five families are intertwined with other families in Jingzhou, and if they exterminate their nine clans, I am afraid that they will kill half of the families in Jingzhou, so Jin Liangcai did not exterminate the nine clans of the four families in accordance with the laws of the Han Dynasty.

"But you can't put other people's female dependents in the Qinglou and castrate men?! It is better to kill than to humiliate others in this way, this is not the right way to teach people to be good. ”

"The Son of Heaven has just arrived in Jingzhou, not only did they not go out of the city to greet each other, but also colluded with Dong Zhuo, Yuan Kui, Wang Yun and other thieves to plot to kill the Son of Heaven, treat such rebellious ministers and thieves, the Son of Heaven is magnanimous, and did not kill their nine clans, since they can't kill on a large scale, how to set an example, how to deter other families with ulterior motives who are about to move, please teach me?!" Jin Liang looked righteous and awe-inspiring.?

Lu Zhi was dumbfounded, and after a while he said, "You know that if you do this, how should people in the world treat you Jin Liang." Xianting, you are not yet thirty years old, you must cherish your reputation, and do not lose your life's reputation because of these things! ”

"Teacher, your family is in Zhuo County, Youzhou, after coming to Jingzhou, what do you think of the family in Jingzhou?" Jin Liang did not directly answer Lu Zhi's advice, but changed the topic and asked.

"They only have their own selfish interests in their eyes, no big man, no court, no people in the world." Lu Zhi was heartbroken.

"The disciple wants to ask the teacher, how should the imperial court deal with such a big family?" Jin Liang continued to ask.

"If the imperial court wants to gain a foothold in Jingzhou, it must severely punish those families who do not respect the imperial court, so as to establish its authority." Lu Zhi did not have the slightest affection for those Jingzhou families who were not only not beneficial to their own interests, but were harmful to the prestige of the imperial court, and then damaged the prestige of his cabinet ministers.

"How to stand up?!"

Lu Zhi hesitated for a moment, and had to nod and say: "Well, this, Xianting's behavior is enough to establish authority, but after all, that is not the right way of saint education, I am afraid that those families in the world will not be convinced." ”

Jin Liang stood up and said loudly: "The Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Teacher, all the adults, everyone knows that the imperial court has been gracious to those Jingzhou families for hundreds of years, and over time, they are accustomed to the favor of the imperial court, and they do not have a trace of gratitude, but instead hold the local official position, seize the fertile land, seize the shops, refuse to pay grain, refuse to pay taxes, refuse to soothe the people, and pluck a hair to benefit the world, but they do not do it. However, such people are mostly heirlooms of poetry and books, and poetry and books have been passed down for hundreds of years, but there is less and less court in their eyes, for such people, the teacher wants to educate them with the sage Confucianism and Taoism, and wants them to make some contributions to the court, isn't it better to seek skin with the tiger! ”

Lu Zhi was silent, he was originally born in the Lu clan of Fanyang Wang, Youzhou, and he did not have the outright hatred of Jin Liang for the family. He has been trying to persuade those families in Jingzhou to cooperate with the imperial court, but there has been little response, and many families are waiting, especially when Lu Zhi asked them to contribute money and materials to the imperial court that is waiting to be rebuilt, they are all indifferent, and they look indifferent as if they are calling Huazi.

Jin Liang Senran said: "Those people can't be virtuous, they must be afraid of power." The imperial court must show strict laws to punish those families who do not respect the imperial court, and establish power with iron and blood. However, these families are intertwined, and if the Han law is strictly used and the slightest connection is made, the interests of most of the families will be touched, and they will be embarrassed to attack the imperial court. For now, it is necessary to reduce the range of fluctuations and achieve the maximum within a limited range. The most vicious. Let other families see how the court will treat disloyal and unrighteous families. ”

Shang Shu Ling Huang Wan praised the festival: "Xian Ting's words are reasonable! Xianting's plan reminds me of an allusion. Legend has it that the monkey is the most afraid of seeing blood, the monkey tamer first killed the chicken to show it in front of him, no matter how stubbornly the monkey resisted, as long as the rooster screamed, the blood bubbled, the monkey saw it, the whole body softened, let the monkey trainer adjust and teach. But then some monkeys learned well. If the monkey trainer just slaughtered the chicken gently, the chicken died quickly, and the monkeys did not take it seriously and still resisted stubbornly. The monkey trainer later learned about the characteristics of the monkey, and when he killed the chicken, he always did not kill the chicken completely, but cut the chicken little by little, and the chicken struggled desperately, flying everywhere, and the ground was full of chicken feathers. Blood flowed all over the ground, screaming and screaming. In this way, those monkeys were frightened by the cruelty shown by the monkey trainers when they killed the chickens, and they didn't want to die so miserably, so they had to bow their heads and dare not make a mistake. ”

"Huang Gong is really wise and discerning, what I do is to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys. If you kill the chicken gently, how to suppress the group of monkeys, you must use the most tyrannical, cruel and vicious killing method to kill the chicken, in order to suppress the group of monkeys! ”

Seeing Jin Liang's words, the five auxiliary ministers headed by Lu Zhi had no choice but to reluctantly agree to Jin Liang's strategy of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys.

Seeing that the cabinet ministers had reached a consensus, the Empress Dowager He Lian and the Young Emperor Liu Wei also happily issued an edict affirming Jin Liang's practices and using Jin Liang's practices as a supplement to the Han law.

To treat these big families, of course, you can't keep holding a big stick, but also give them some carrots. In addition to luring some families to serve the imperial court, the carrot also divided the originally monolithic Jingzhou family. After Li Cheng's rebellion was quelled, peace was restored to Xiangyang, and an edict from the palace of the Son of Heaven was delivered to every corner of Jingzhou.

All of a sudden, whether it is a big family with tens of thousands of soldiers, a medium family with thousands of soldiers, or a small family with hundreds of soldiers, their heads of families have an edict in their hands, saying that the Son of Heaven will hold a banquet to invite all the heads of the family. Hongmen feast? There was such a question mark in the hearts of all the heads of the families, but the edict said that because of the large number of officials in the imperial court, the heads of various families were specially convened to discuss this matter.

"Aiqing, aren't you worried that they won't come because you tortured and killed Li Cheng and the others before?" Empress Dowager He felt that the idea of the Son of Heaven to set up a banquet was not reliable.

"What is a family, it is not a big family established for generations as officials and then using power to seek benefits in all aspects, if no one is an official among the children of a certain family, no matter how powerful that family is in other aspects, it will also be looked down upon, for example, although the Zhen family has a big business, it is still looked down upon by many families in Jingzhou, just because the Zhen family has no high-ranking officials in the court, Zhen Yi only made the Cai Ling, how can a county order be placed on the table?"

Jin Liang sneered and continued: "Those families seem to be intertwined on the surface, and they are in the same spirit, but in fact, they are intrigued and deceitful, and they can't tolerate other families to be more prominent than their families, please wait and see, the families who come here this time will definitely occupy more than half of the Jingzhou families." ”

Sure enough, as Jin Liang expected, although the heads of those families in Jingzhou were worried that the banquet set up by the Son of Heaven was a Hongmen banquet, they also knew that the imperial court would not drive them all out, as long as their more than 200 family heads died in Xiangyang, the army of more than 300,000 or 400,000 people of these more than 200 families could immediately swallow Xiangyang, and the imperial court could not make that determination.

Since the imperial court can't make that determination, the meaning of the imperial court is obvious, it is to win them over, it is to give them official positions, since the edict of the Son of Heaven has been written like that, you have no jokes, this time you will definitely be able to get an official position for the children of the family. In addition to dozens of families who are still hooking up with Yuan Kui and Wang Yun, the heads of other large and small families have come to Xiangyang one after another, and most of them have brought their own children who think they are excellent.

The imperial court has been in Xiangyang for many days, and many official positions are temporarily lacking capable ministers, and it is true that elite talents are needed to fill them, but Jin Liang does not want those talents from other families with different aspirations to occupy those key official positions.

After being reminded by Jin Liang, Chen Lin, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Dong Zhao, Ju Yi, Zhu Ling and others all brought the elites in the family to Xiangyang.

Guo Jia asked Jin Liang: "Lord, why did you persuade the Son of Heaven to hold this banquet, are you really willing to give up the vacant positions in the imperial court to those families?" ”

"Bonghyo, don't you know me yet? How can I allow these future enemies to take advantage of me? There are not many official positions with real power in the imperial court, and most of them are purely decorations. Even if those children of the family seize the official position with real power, I will slowly transfer the real power of that official position to other official positions. Jin Liang laughed loudly.

"The bottom of the kettle is a plan to draw salary. The Lord is divinely transformed. Guo Jia first complimented Jin Liang. Then he asked with a smile. "My lord. Can you give us generals a position in the imperial court? ”

Jin Liang was puzzled: "Fengxiao, why do you have to have a position in the court?" If you serve in the Central Army and have the barrel of a gun, you will have real power, and you shouldn't care about those puppet positions. ”

"Lord, although the real power of this dynasty is still in business, those three princes will not be able to grasp the real power if they do not have the title of recording Shangshushi. But the history books only record the changes of the three dukes, the same reason, although we can see that those official positions are humble and powerful, those official positions are high and weak, but the people all over the world do not know, they still evaluate a person's officialdom achievements by the level of official positions, such as when Lord Lu Zhi was a scholar, the real power is still above the Situ Ding Palace, but people usually put the position of the Ding Palace in front of Lord Lu. Guo Jia explained with a smile: "The generals in our army still need a false official of the imperial court to comfort the father of the family, although this mind is vain. But it is also human nature, and the lord cannot ignore it. ”

"Bong Filial Piety. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten this person's normal feelings. Alas, no, you used to be completely dismissive of this person's sophistication, why are you so smart now? Jin Liang asked in surprise.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Lord, you forgot, you arranged for me to be the sacrificial wine of the Chinese military division, and I followed the Chinese military division Mr. Dong Zhao around, followed him for many days, and benefited a lot." Because I am more familiar with human affairs, I now have a more thorough understanding of the basic nature of people, and in the future, I will be more accurate in judging the behavior and actions of enemy generals. Thank you for your clever arrangement. ”

Jin Liang waved his hand, signaling that Guo Jia didn't need to be polite, and then quickly gave him an order: "Chen Lin went home to gather the elite children of the family, you will temporarily take the post of chief bookkeeper, and quickly go to count what the generals above the brigade level think about serving in the imperial court, and let them think about a few more groups of official positions that they are interested in, and then I will put it forward in the cabinet." I guarantee that our generals of the Central Army can get an official position in the imperial court, otherwise other forces will not be able to find a suitable official position in the imperial court controlled by our Central Army. ”

Guo Jia took the order and left, and after a long time, he completely counted the willingness of the generals above the brigade commander to seek officials, Jin Liang took a look, and laughed: "These guys are too petty, why are they all petty officials?" ”

"Lord, don't underestimate these official positions, although they are lowly, they are powerful, if there is no consent of these petty officials, the orders of those three princes and nine secretaries will be nonsense. Moreover, our Central Army is still firmly in control of the imperial court, and we must not let the generals in the army suddenly rise to such a high official position, otherwise other forces will definitely be dissatisfied, and our Central Army will still have countless opportunities for meritorious service in the future. Speaking of this, Guo Jia smiled and said: "Those guys were originally written in high positions, but after some kind words and persuasion from me, they agreed to stay in these positions temporarily." ”

Jin Liang accepted Guo Jia's suggestion and went to the cabinet to consult with the other five auxiliary ministers, who wanted to give priority to the interests of their respective families by assigning the positions of those who held real power to the imperial court. Jin Liang himself has no family background, and what he can rely on is the soldiers of the Central Army, and he has a fierce and lengthy dispute with other auxiliary ministers for the official positions of these generals under his command.

Jin Liang still serves as the commander of the Zhengnan general, the commander of the Si Li, and the commander of Guangluxun, and the general of the Zhengbei, the captain of the Si Li, and the large and small official positions under the command of Guangluxun are all concurrently held by generals at all levels of the Central Army, such as Gao Shun and the cavalry lieutenant in charge of the Yulin cavalry, and Xu Huang is also the commander of the Fengche lieutenant who is in charge of the imperial chariot, and the actual work of these positions is carried out by the deputy of the cavalry lieutenant and the Fengche lieutenant, Gao Shun and Xu Huang are only hanging official titles, and those deputies are also transferred from the central army to perform the task of maintaining the security of the imperial court.

Over time, many official positions such as Guangluxun, Cavalry Captain, and Fengche Lieutenant gradually evolved into virtual titles, and the real executive power was their deputy, and their deputy obeyed the orders of the Six Shangshu. Guangluxun's five official Zhonglang General, Left Zhonglang General, Right Zhonglang General, East Zhonglang General, West Zhonglang General, South Zhonglang General, North Zhonglang General and other Zhonglang generals are temporarily abolished. Wei Wei is responsible for the guard of the outer gate of the palace, originally served by Yang Biao, and later changed to Zheng Tai, because Zheng Tai is also the post of Shangshu, long in the center, the post of Wei Wei has his false lead, the real implementation of the post of Wei Wei is his deputy guarding the palace order Huang Cong, Huang Cong is Huang Wan's cousin, Huang Cong has a thousand men and horses, this thousand men and horses did not fall from the world, but Jin Liang transferred to Huang Cong from the central army, although Huang Cong does not recognize Jin Liang as the lord, but the people under his command are only Jin Liang and the horse is the first.
