After the official system was completed, Liu Hong immediately called Liu Qi and asked him to see if there were any loopholes in the official system.

"Your Majesty, the official system you designed is more rigorous. As for His Majesty's statement that he transferred the contradictions and led the people to participate in politics, Weichen did not dare to comment, but he did not see anything wrong. It's just this kind of bureaucracy, which is relatively harsh on officials, and the current treatment of officials ......"

Although Liu Qian didn't say anything further, Liu Hong also knew his thoughts. The bureaucratic system is tightened, and officials basically cannot be corrupt and take bribes. Officials who do not have extra money, with the current treatment, will certainly not be able to meet their needs.

"Uncle Huang's concerns, I have also thought of it." After a pause, Liu Hong continued: "Officials are also human beings, and they also have the desire to live a good life. But if they can't even guarantee their own livelihood, how can they still have the heart to govern the country. Therefore, I plan that as soon as this official system is implemented, I will increase the remuneration of hundreds of officials. ”

"Your Majesty, it's a good thing that you have raised the salary of hundreds of officials. But Your Majesty, how much does this have to be improved? If it's less, it's basically useless. But if it's too much, the little money in the treasury will definitely not be able to afford it! ”

"Damn, just thinking about how to reform the control, I forgot that the treasury doesn't have much money." There is no money in the treasury, and Liu Hong is also a clever woman who has no rice, so he sighed for a while, "If you don't want to reform, this thing is too troublesome." Only one official system has been moved, and now it seems that it must be changed! ”

As soon as Liu Hong pondered, his head immediately became bigger.

If we want to reform regulations, we need to improve the treatment of officials. In order to improve the remuneration of officials, it is necessary to keep the treasury sufficient. And in order to make the treasury sufficient, the current tax system will not work, and he will have to reform the tax system. And now the tax almost refers to the agricultural tax. Therefore, in order to reform the tax system, it is necessary to first improve agriculture and complete land reform. And if you want to complete the land reform, you must first know how many people and how much land there were in the Han Dynasty.

"In my day, almost half of the population and land of the Han Dynasty have been hidden by those family gates. I want to clear out such a land and population, it's no wonder that those family lords don't work hard. Now Liu Hong is extremely entangled, "Is it necessary to reform or not?" ”

Liu Hong couldn't make up his mind, so he asked Liu Qian and asked him to help pay attention, "Uncle Huang, if you want the treasury to be sufficient, you must reform the tax system." Otherwise, the symptoms will not be cured, and even if it can be delayed for a while, it will be a failure in the end. However, the tax reform affects the whole body, and I really can't make up my mind. ”

"What Your Majesty said, Wechen has also considered. The current Han has reached the point where it is impossible not to change. However, if you want to change, it will touch the interests of too many people. It cannot be done without great determination and courage. ”

"Alas, it's all nonsense, nothing real at all." Liu Hong is very clear about what Liu Qian said. "If we don't reform, the Han will go down the old path of history. Even if it can be delayed for a while, judging from the current situation, the contradictions are already very prominent, and it will certainly not take long to change the dynasty. ”

Thinking of this, Liu Hong's mind immediately appeared images of the last kings in those film and television dramas. Those miserable pictures frightened him into a cold shiver.

"But if we want to reform, this will touch the fundamental interests of the current vested interests, the family and the gate lords, and they will definitely resist to the death. If one is not good, I will be ousted from the throne, that is light, if it is heavy, my little life will be over. ”

Since Liu Qian couldn't help, it was useless for him to stay here, and after Liu Hong sent him away, he pondered it. Just when Liu Hong couldn't make up his mind and couldn't make up his mind, Liu Fu came running.

"Your Majesty, the training of the soldiers of the Central Military Region has been completed. When are you going to check it out? ”

"Oh, is it done so quickly? The Central Military Region has an army of 100,000? It not only includes the original five colonels of the Northern Army, the forbidden army Huben, the Yulin army, but also the armies of the generals of various Kaifu. With so many people, how did you train so fast? ”

"Your Majesty, what's so rare about this. There are more than 10,000 soldiers in our house, and I will scatter them all to train new troops. The Central Military Region was divided into 2,000 people, and it was very easy for each of them to train dozens of people. ”

After listening to Liu Fu's words, Liu Hong finally determined that the training of the Central Army was really completed. Now, Liu Hong's heart can be regarded as having a bottom.

"Liu Fu, you said that you scattered the soldiers in our house to various places. Isn't that the army of the other eight military regions also trained almost the same? ”

"Your Majesty, the other legions are about the same. I have just received news that in addition to the three military regions of the West, Northwest, and Northeast, they are still conducting actual combat training. The other military regions have also completed their training. ”

Hearing this, Liu Hong was completely relieved. With hundreds of thousands of troops in hand, he has the confidence to do things.

"If you don't reform, sooner or later you will die. If you fight hard, maybe there is still a way to live. Anyway, I have an army in hand, so I will first take stock of the population and land of the Han Dynasty and see the reaction of the family gate lords, and then make plans."

Liu Hong knows that if the population and land are checked, the family and the gate valve will definitely resist. To say that the imperial examination system he implemented moved their foundation. And if you want to carry out land reform, there is not a big difference between directly asking for their lives.

These family gates, which one is not hiding a large number of people and land, used to escape the poll tax, land tax, etc., these taxes.

Although the family has the privilege of not having to pay taxes or have to bear the burden of labor. But these privileges are limited. For each level, there are detailed regulations on how many people and how many places can be exempted. How can this number of people and land satisfy the appetite of those family gates. So tax evasion is inevitable, and the bigger the family, the more they hide.

Reform is bound to touch the interests of some people, and Liu Hong is now trying his best to avoid it, hoping to carry out a reform that can satisfy everyone.

However, Liu Hong also knows that this idea is a bit nonsense, and the possibility of realization is infinitely close to zero. However, if you put a little effort into reforming and try to avoid touching the interests of those family valves, it is not impossible to do it.

"In any case, if you can avoid conflict, it is definitely better not to have conflict. The big men have reached this point, and they really can't stand the toss."

So Liu Hong decided to pull out these troops he trained first and show his muscles. I hope that when the reform is over, those families who are ready to move will be suppressed.

In the military parade, Liu Hong felt that it was necessary to do this now. Even the power of the new army cannot deter everyone. However, as long as it can deter some of it, it can be regarded as a big victory.
