Chapter 590 Destroy the Sima Family
Gao Shun's greatest contribution this time is to introduce sugarcane to Taiwan, and he believes that sugarcane will soon develop into Taiwan's leading industry, and ordinary people will have the opportunity to taste sweets.
At that time, the only sweets were honey and starch syrup, which was commonly known as maltose. At that time, sugarcane was already cultivated in Jiaozhou, but they could not refine sugarcane, so they could only make sugarcane, which is a liquid sugar that cannot be transported over long distances.
Gao Shun is preparing to refine sucrose in Keelung, which is convenient for secrecy.
After staying in Keelung for half a year, Keelung has become a prosperous city, and then Gao Shun and others returned to the mainland.
Taking advantage of the south wind in spring, everyone went straight to Jizhou by boat.
After returning to Yecheng, Shizi and Xi Zhicai and others immediately came to report their work.
Because of the guilt in his heart for those who were arrested, Kong Rong became ill and has been dead for more than a year.
Zheng Xuan, Lu Zhi, Ma Riyan and other great Confucians also passed away one after another.
Cai Yong is currently the president of Alexandra University.
When they were alive, Gao Shun was wary of them, and now that they have died, Gao Shun feels a little sad in his heart.
Gao Shun had to reflect, now he has systematic help, there is no shortage of civil and military officials, but his juniors do not have this advantage, if the scholars are suppressed too much, they will have no one available at that time, how to govern the world?
At present, even if state schools, county schools, and county schools are established, the students are still mainly children of large families, and the children of poor people are still in the minority, and this status quo cannot be changed in a short period of time.
Moreover, under the current conditions of social development, it is simply impossible to implement compulsory education in later generations; Even with the imperial examination system, it was still the big clans that dominated.
After thinking about it for a few days, Gao Shun called Shizi to the study and asked straight to the point: "How do you feel about staying in Yecheng in the past few years?" Gao Shun is quite satisfied with Shizi's performance in the past few years, not to mention anything else, he is not in the country, he has not released food from the system, but he has been able to keep food prices stable in recent years, which shows that they have done a lot of work.
Shizi thought for a while and said: "Father, my son does not agree with continuing to suppress scholars, you can use Confucianism as the mainstay, supplemented by a hundred schools, after all, the technological development you said is very slow and takes a long time, and it is urgent to govern the world, and it must be placed in the position of the county by the virtuous and benevolent." ”
Gao Shun explained: "My father is not suppressing scholars, but suppressing the big families, they are selfish, they all focus on the interests of the family, and they will never put the people of the world first, so they must be beaten and pulled, and they must not be out of control." Our foundation is the Shu clan, the Hanmen, the landlords and the warrior group, from the root, we are the gravediggers of the "monopoly politics of the family", and they have irreconcilable contradictions, and we can not relax our control over them at any time, and we can only use them, but not reuse, so as to protect the foundation. ”
"Yes, Father!"
Gao Shun asked again: "What else do you think?" ”
"Father, I want to go to the local government to be an official, benefit the people, and train myself."
"Okay, that's good you can think like that."
Subsequently, Gao Shun successively issued a series of personnel appointments.
moved to Yanzhou, and Zhao Feng was the Taishou of Runan County; Succeeds Zhuge Xuan, who is sick.
The prince served as the pastor of Yanzhou.
Zhong Xuan was appointed as a don't drive, Fu Hu was appointed as Zhizhong, Guan Yu was appointed as Bing Cao, Zhuge Liang was engaged in Bo Cao, and Yang Xiu was appointed as the main Bo. As for the guards, it's still full.
Gao Shun believes that Yanzhou is under his nose, and the prince is being trained there, and there will be no mistakes.
Yang Xiu is now alone, the entire family was wiped out by Dong Zhuo, only he was in Qingzhou, escaped and became the only survivor of the Yang family, Gao Shun believes that even if he is talented, without the support of the family, there will not be much of a threat.
Zhong Xuan, Fu Hu, Zhuge Liang and Zhang Liao are all loyal people, and they will assist the prince, and Gao Shun can rest assured.
And Gao Shun hopes that Shizi will form his team as soon as possible, so that he can see if Shizi has the ability to control the overall situation, whether he has the ability to recognize and employ people, and prepare for the future succession.
Several people were very happy to receive the order, in their opinion, this is Gao Shun's trust in them, in this way, they will become the main helpers of the prince, to ensure that they are still trusted after the prince takes over.
At the same time, Gao Shun's appointment, in the eyes of outsiders, is a signal, a signal that he began to use the people of the big family, and take the initiative to ease the contradictions with the big family. Especially the appointment of Yang Xiu and Zhuge Liang made those big families see hope.
Those students who graduated from Alexandra University also saw the opportunity, and Zhuge Liang and Yang Xiu were their seniors; They even thought that Gao Shun had suppressed the students before and had always put them in the position of the county order, which was a training for them, hoping to leave them to the use of the prince.
Now Gao Shun regrets it very much, the original means should have been stronger, and it would be better to arrest the Sima family together; He was not worried about Yang Xiu, but was very worried about the Sima family, what had happened in history made him have to pay attention to it.
Therefore, he ordered Li Qiang to launch secret agents hidden in Hanoi County to search for the guilt of the Sima family, and to uproot them and avoid future troubles; Although he understands that without the Sima family, there will definitely be other careerists at that time, but he can get rid of one family.
Among Gao Shun's many children, only Xu Ting's children are older, and the children born to the others are not yet minors, so the appointment of Shizi as the state pastor will not cause dissatisfaction among others.
Soon, news came from Wen County that Sima's family had more than 500 dead soldiers, which made Gao Shun seize the handle and urgently ordered Ma Gui to lead 3,000 senior cavalry to Xuzhou to arrest Sima Yi, who was an official in Xuzhou. Five days later, Li Qiang was ordered to personally lead the team and lead 10,000 senior cavalry to Wen County, Hanoi County, to destroy the three clans of the Sima family;
Sima Yi was defenseless, thinking that Ma Gui was just passing by, but Ma Gui charged, and the cavalry rushed into the county seat, surrounded the county government, arrested Sima Yi's family, and escorted them back to Yecheng.
Li Qiang's actions were also very fast, without giving the Sima family a chance to resist, he rushed into the Sima family and killed for a while, and the five hundred dead soldiers were annihilated by the cavalry without preparation, and the members of the Sima family were slaughtered.
Gao Shun personally confirmed Sima Yi's identity in Yecheng and personally supervised the beheading; He charged the Sima family with treason.
The Sima family is famous, "Sima Bada" is even more outstanding, everyone doesn't believe that the Sima family will rebel, now Gao Shun's soldiers are strong and strong, who would be stupid enough to rebel at this time?
There are also people who are familiar with Sima Yi who believe that Sima Yi has the appearance of a hawk and a wolf, and it is he who has brought trouble to the family, and Gao Shun is cutting out dissidents and will not affect the interests of other families.
Eagle vision, the eyes are attentive, the eyeballs are abrupt, the vision is excellent, and the people who see it shudder.
Wolf Gu, the head twists quite a lot from side to side and the shoulders do not move at all when twisting, referring to common dogs, the head can be close to 180 degrees of twisting.
The eagle looks at the wolf, which brings great discomfort to the people around him, feeling that he is like a prey, and his every move is under the control and monitoring of the other party.
Now that Gao Shun is strong, no one can balance him, and the Sima family is just an unlucky ghost.
Sure enough, shortly after, Hua Xin was appointed as the Taishou of Lelang County. Although it is relatively remote, this is also the position of Taishou, and he is still happy to go.
Huan Fan was appointed as the commander of the Qingzhou Army Cheng Li.
Man Chong was appointed as the assassin of Anzhou and succeeded Zhong Xuan.
Everyone thinks that this is Gao Shun's desire to ease the tense relationship with the big family.
