Wei Zhi was dismissed
There are three strategies for heaven and man, and Liu Che bought them all. However www.biquge.info he paid Dong Zhongshu a surprising price: the prime minister of Jiangdu State.
Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu, is Liu Che's half-brother. He is aggressive, extremely difficult to provoke, and even more difficult to deal with. When the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion and the Xiongnu entered the Kou, he volunteered to write: I am willing to go to the front line to kill the enemy! When he put down the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, he made military achievements, and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty divided Liu Bi's Wu State in half: Jiang Duguo gave himself this son. At this time, Liu Fei is becoming more and more invincible, and no one pays attention to it. It has the meaning of Liu Bi's two... Liu Che sent Dr. Dong to serve such an evil king, which reminded people of the depressed scene when Jia Yi served the king of Changsha. Could it be that Dong Zhongshu practiced peerless magic skills behind closed doors, and ended up with a position that was not allowed to be a minister?
As the saying goes, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help it. It turns out that many things in the world are always uncontrollable by people. In this case, what else can Dong Zhongshu say? The only way to do this is: pack your bags, wave your sleeves, and hit the road alone.
However, looking back, this time Liu Che was high-profile and recruited talents, not called Liangjian, but should be called a sword test. He is only 16 years old, and he still has a long way to go. Although there is always an unstoppable impulse and excitement in his heart, if he really wants to do a great cause that has never been done before, he must also remember one sentence: the future is bright, and the road is tortuous.
Liu Che thought that he was young and courageous, and there was nothing he couldn't do or couldn't do. As the saying goes: we go as far as we think...
But it turned out that it was not enough! Because he is young, he is easy to be aggressive; If you are aggressive, you are prone to make mistakes. Therefore, if you want to do great things, you must also have wisdom. This wisdom is political skill.
Immediately, there was a big figure who gave the young Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty a taste of what twists and turns were and taught him what real political skills were! This person is the Empress Dowager Dou!
Originally, the Empress Dowager was also old, and she also wanted to spend her old age with peace of mind, and she could toss less if she could. But now, she has to let go of Huang Laozhi's learning and free up her hands to teach her grandson a lesson! This is because Liu Che is so disagreeable that he dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head: Liu Che actually dismissed two of the most important top officials of the imperial court, and it just so happened that they were both the people of the Empress Dowager Dou!
The first to be deposed was the prime minister Wei Juan, the head of the hundred officials.
Liu Qi asked the honest and loyal Wei Juan to assist the prince back then, with only four words: safe and reliable! In fact, Liu Qi's vision is right. However, he mistook one person: his own son Liu Che!
The two emperors of Wenjing were both well-behaved people; However, Liu Che was uneasy about his duty, and he knew what it meant to eat in the bowl and look at the pot at a young age. If you want him to just keep it and not do it, that's. In addition, Liu Che is a good Confucian Xiwen, Wei Juan is good at being soft. As the saying goes, different ways do not conspire with each other. The ideological direction is inconsistent, and Wei Juan's result is conceivable...
After Dong Zhongshu put forward the eight-character policy of "respecting Confucianism alone and deposing a hundred schools", Wei Juan immediately responded, and said, "This time, all the virtuous people in various places, as well as those who study the theories of Shen Buxian, Han Fei, Su Qin, and Zhang Yi, please depose all these people" Shen Buxian and Han Fei are legalists; Su Qin and Zhang Yi are vertical and horizontal families. Why did Wei Juan choose these two companies? It turned out to be very simple: he was a Taoist apprentice of Lao Tzu. The Legalists are harsh and the vertical and horizontal families are flamboyant, which are not tolerated by Huang Lao's thoughts. So Wei Juan's trick is nothing more than a hitchhike and a knife to kill...
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, approved Wei Xuan's performance. Except for Gongsun Hong and Zhuang Zhu Confucian students, the rest of the virtuous people were ordered to return home and not hired! Zhuang Zhu was promoted to middle school doctor.
Wei Juan also thought that he had photographed the sycophants of the new son of heaven, and from then on he could hope to favor Gurong and preserve his position. I didn't know that my position as prime minister has only been more than half a year... Liu Che's reason for wanting to rectify Wei Juan is very simple: Wei Juan admires Huang Lao, and his thoughts cannot be consistent with the leadership! Liu Che has already prepared a successor for him: Dou Ying!
In February of the first year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty (BC140), Liu Che ordered the issuance of three baht coins. In the same month, he granted amnesty to the world and granted the people the first rank. Another item of preferential treatment for the elderly has been added: 80 years and 90 years. Later, on April 9, an edict was issued to demand that the whole society respect the elderly.
In June, Liu Che dismissed Wei Juan. The reason is: when the first emperor was sick in bed in his later years, many prisoners in the prison were wronged, and Wei Juan was derelict as prime minister, so he was dismissed... Think about it: If you stop the Legalists and the Zongheng Family, why should you keep the Taoists?
But the problem is that during the reign of Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty, the whipping and stick law was changed again and again, and even the prisoners felt embarrassed when they were beaten. And Wei Juan is a good person, how can he be virtuous, so how can so many wronged prisoners suddenly appear in the prison? Is this Liu Che's unreasonable trick?
In fact, Liu Che is right to think about Wei Wan. But Liu Che's rectification of Wei Wan is reasonable. Because there are indeed many unjustly convicted prisoners in the prison. If you don't believe it, you can ask Prime Minister Wei Juan to take a look in person, or even ask the Empress Dowager Dou to personally send someone to investigate.
And these wronged people are the successor of Zhidu, another cool official, Ning Cheng. They sued layer by layer, and when they sued Liu Che, it became a direct excuse for Liu Che to get rid of Wei Juan.
Wei Juan's political career came to an end, and his relative Dou Ying was ready to take over. The reasons why Liu Che chose Dou Ying are as follows: First of all, Wei Juan is the person of the Empress Dowager Dou, and Dou Ying is also the Empress Dowager's person, getting rid of Wei Juan and replacing him with Dou Ying is a good plan to appease the old man. Secondly, Dou Ying is a Confucian and chivalrous, he came to be the prime minister, the political ideals of the monarch and the ministers are the same, and they work together, are you afraid that the Confucian cause will not be bigger? High, really high!
Sure enough, Empress Dowager Dou didn't hum a word. However, no, just a temporary acquiescence. Empress Dowager Dou has been watching quietly, she wants to see what this milky little grandson wants to make the Han Dynasty look like?
At this time, what Liu Che wanted to fix the most was, of course, to pour out the old Taoist water in the bottle of the Han Dynasty and replace it with the water of Neo-Confucianism. Confucianism is used in the water. This is what Liu Che said, and it was also said by Dou Ying, a relative of the Empress Dowager Dou's family, and even more so by Tian Wei, a relative of the Empress Dowager's Wang family.
Back then, when Dou Ying had mixed into the position of general, Tian Wei was still a small official in the harem. However, because both of them are relatives, they often get together to drink. However, many times, Tian Wei's role is just to accompany him. At that time, drinking was all about the rules. The status can be seen at the banquet. Tian Wei toasted or saluted Dou Ying, and always served the elders in the way of juniors to elders.
However, no one expected that these two would swap identities and statuses in the future. The future is still far away, so let's live today first. Tian Wei believes that any elder starts from the small character generation, and the so-called elders should not be too far away. There are two reasons why Tian Wei is so confident that she can get out of the way: 1. Her sister Queen Wang is very favored; 2 He has a good mouth, a wide range of social contacts, and a hand in sycophancy.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before the day of Tian Wei's early emergence came. Under the praise of Empress Wang and the promotion of Emperor Jing of Han, he soon became a doctor in Taizhong, who was in charge of thousands of stones. The hands were wide, and the shelves began to be loaded. At that time, the magnates had to decorate the façade, and the biggest feature was to support guests. So Tian Wei raised guests, gathered the powerful, and accumulated popularity. From quantitative to qualitative change, his life is slowly changing.
In fact, Tian Wei has its own benefits. At that time, after Liu Qi abolished the crown prince Liu Rong, he was worried that someone in the world would take the opportunity to make trouble. So Tian Wei dedicated all the strategies of the doorman to Liu Qi, and Liu Qi turned it into a pacification action. Tian Wei made meritorious contributions, and as soon as Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty died, Liu Che named his uncle the Marquis of Wu'an.
At this time, Dou Ying was ready to take over as prime minister, and Tian Wei, who was also a relative, was certainly not far behind. In fact, what Tian Wei has always longed for most is also the position of prime minister at the head of the hundred officials. Wei Juan was dismissed, he thought that he was the prime minister. However, at the critical moment, someone stopped him. The people who stood in his way as prime minister were the same group of guests he raised at home.
The guests said to Tian Wei like this: "On the backstage, you are harder than Dou Ying; In terms of ability, you are no worse than Dou Ying; In terms of popularity, you are a cut below Dou Ying. Dou Ying is expensive, his popularity is booming, and the world's celebrities are returning, now is not the time to trigger him, it is recommended that you bear with it first. Therefore, if Your Majesty asks you to be the prime minister, you must be humble to Dou Ying. If Dou Ying is the prime minister, you will definitely be the captain. The Taiwei and the Prime Minister are both three dukes, and their status is equally noble, so you don't have to feel at a loss. Besides: You have earned the name of modesty, are you afraid that you will not have the opportunity to be a prime minister in the future?"
I really didn't raise this group of people in vain. The guest's words made Tian Wei suddenly think of a person, of course, it was the Empress Dowager Dou. Dou Ying has the queen mother, and there are a bunch of celebrities to support him, if he really wants to compete with Dou Ying for this prime minister, I am afraid it will be another vicious fight. Why don't you just follow the wishes of the guests and endure it again?
So, Tian Wei immediately ran to find his sister Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother gave Liu Che another blow. As a result, it became what it is today: on June 7, Dou Ying was the prime minister and Tian Wei was the captain.
In fact, Tian Wei can get mixed up to today, not only has a good background, but he also has a good hobby, that is, the same as Liu Che and Dou Ying: good Confucianism. So he didn't want to be lucky, and the ghosts didn't believe it.
Well, now the prime minister and the captain have been replaced. And what about the last remaining Imperial Historian of the Third Prince? Do you want to change it? Liu Che's answer was: Change! Decisive change! Therefore, the imperial historian at that time was undoubted, and this was also a so-called unenterprising scholar...
Liu Che sent him to the post without doubt, and the reason for being laid off was also: to bear the responsibility of those prisoners being wronged together with Wei Juan!
Cleaning up the straight and undoubted, Liu Che summoned Prime Minister Dou Ying and Taiwei Tian Wei, "I have two vacant posts here: Yu Shi Dafu and Lang Zhongling, you recommend two good comrades to me to take over these two positions"
Dou Ying and Tian Wei immediately thought of two people: Zhao Juan and Wang Zang. Both of them had studied the Book of Songs by Shen Gong, a Confucian master of the Lu Kingdom. So, Dou Ying and Tian Wei immediately nominated to the emperor. Liu Che immediately approved: Zhao Juan is the imperial doctor, and Wang Zang is the commander of Lang.
Officialdom culture has always been peculiar, and on the road to the top of the pyramid, even if the steady and steady person can't start and finish well, he can more or less protect himself and retreat. Such as Wei Wan and Zhi do not doubt. And those who climb to the top in a helicopter tend to climb fast and fall fast; The higher you climb, the worse you fall. Such as Zhao Juan and Wang Zang.
Zhao Juan and Wang Zang, we don't know anything except that they are the proud disciples of Master Shen. What would it be like for a person with a pale political career to suddenly soar to such a high position? I think that for Zhao and Wang, the two brothers, I am afraid that there are only two feelings: pride and fear. Proudly: they apprenticed to learn "Poetry", which coincided with the times and was published. The fear is: how can such a high position be maintained for a long time?
If you want to work for a long time, of course, you must win the favor of the emperor; If you want to win Liu Che's favor, you must show your hands first. is the so-called three fires for new officials to take office. Whether you do a good job or not depends on whether the first few fires are burning vigorously or not.
In fact, the three fires of Zhao Juan and Wang Zang burned very strongly. So they burned their own lives to death.
So, how did Zhao Juan's first fire burn? Zhao Juan proposed to engage in Mingtang. The so-called Ming Hall is to build a large building specifically for the Son of Heaven. This building is not for vacation, nor is it for drinking and having fun. It is a place specially used to meet with princes, perform important sacrificial activities, and show off the majesty of the Son of Heaven.
The construction of the Ming Hall was a product of Confucianism's strong promotion of establishing the authority of the Son of Heaven. If Dong Zhongshu's three strategies of heaven and man provide a conceptual foundation for Liu Che to respect the world; Then the Mingtang proposed by Zhao Juan is a concrete embodiment of Dong Zhongshu's thoughts. Liu Che has just come out of the rivers and lakes, and his edge is exposed, but the foundation has yet to be consolidated. He needed this so-called Mingtang too much to establish the prestige of the young son of heaven for himself.
So for Liu Che, Zhao Juan's fire is really good and wonderful. If I had to describe it in one word, it would be: timely rain!
There must be a host. Zhao Juan has already decided on a good candidate for Liu Che. This is Zhao Xuan's second fire: invite his teacher and Confucian master Shen Gong!
At that time, several national treasures who were famous for their study of the Confucian Five Classics were: Jinan Fusheng was famous for his study of the Book of Shang. At the beginning, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty sent Chao Cuo to study in Qi State, and what he learned was Fusheng's knowledge. The second is Qi Renyuan Gusheng, who is famous for his study of the Book of Songs. The same name as Qi Ren Yuan Gusheng is Lu Ren Shen Gong. All three were over eighty or ninety years old. Today, they are all products of the same model as Mr. Ji Xianlin, a master of Chinese culture.
Before the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Shen Gong was once the teacher of Liu Wu, the king of Chu. But Liu Wu is not good at learning, and often makes Shen kilometers away is not a person. So Shen Gong had no choice but to take the initiative to lay off and return to Lu to teach as a profession. Facts have proved that if you don't listen to the teacher's upbringing, you will suffer after all. In the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Liu Wu and Liu Wei rebelled together, and were thrown down by Liu Wei at the critical moment and fled, so Liu Wu had no choice but to commit suicide and end up in disrepute.
