Chapter 498: The dilemma of the Han clan's relatives
Liu Yu got the answer he wanted, although he still had to wait another year, but this was nothing to Liu Yu, anyway, Liu Yu had basically been reading books silently in the past few years, and he had been living day by day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info。。
After Liu Xin chatted with Liu Yu for a while, Liu Yu suddenly mentioned a question, "Brother Ziji, you should know that great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao in Jizhou, Hebei, I don't know what you think about this?" After all, this Zhang Jiao is also famous now, but this Zhang Jiao's ambition is not small, not only has he already established a sect, but also seems to have integrated the local believers, and his influence is already very huge, so I am a little worried that this Zhang Jiao will make some trouble. ”
As soon as Liu Xin heard Liu Yu say this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that among the high-level people of the Han Dynasty today, there are already people who are aware of Zhang Jiao's problem, as Liu Yu said, the current Zhang Jiao has been in the "patrol mission" a few days ago, reflecting his huge influence on his followers, after all, the entire population of Julu City basically spontaneously left Julu City with Zhang Jiao, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the current Julu City is ten rooms and nine emptiness, which is obviously a very abnormal situation, After all, the people of Dahan pay attention to a stability, a homeland is difficult to leave, can make so many Julu residents give up their original life, give up their homes to follow Zhang Jiao to "go out to preach", this is undoubtedly an incredible thing, of course, this also reflects Zhang Jiao's terrible control over the people of Julu City, if Zhang Jiao rebelled, then these people of Julu City will not hesitate to respond to Zhang Jiao.
Therefore, this is the reason why Liu Yu began to worry about Zhang Jiao, after all, the lessons of the previous dynasty are vivid, all because of a person with strong appeal ascended to the heights, and the world responded in a cloud, and finally overthrew the rule of the imperial court.
And now, Liu Yu undoubtedly saw such signs, so Liu Xin specially came to ask Liu Xin, after all, Liu Xin and Zhang Jiao are both "immortal masters", so Liu Yu feels that Liu Xin should be able to guess Zhang Jiao's thinking mode, so as to predict what Zhang Jiao will do next!
Liu Xin understood what Liu Yu meant, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided to reveal some news to Liu Yu, after all, Liu Xin felt that if nothing else, Liu Yu was likely to be in charge of all matters related to the pacification of the Yellow Turban Uprising in Youzhou, or before the Yellow Turban Uprising, Liu Yu would be retransferred to the Youzhou area as an official, so he might still need some assistance from Liu Yu at that time, such as asking Liu Yu to force Zhang Jiao to launch the Yellow Turban Uprising, or when Zhang Jiao launched the Yellow Turban Uprising in a hurry, Liu Yu took the lead in leading the Youzhou soldiers to give Zhang Jiao a blow to the head, so that he could better control the scale and influence of the Yellow Turban Uprising.
So Liu Xin, who thought of this, touched his chin and said to Liu Yu with a calm face: "Brother Bo'an, you are a little worried, although Zhang Jiao has established the Taiping Dao and calls himself a great sage and good teacher, he can be regarded as having this ability, but in my opinion, this Zhang Jiao is just a guy who has learned a little fur, not to mention what kind of immortal master, Zhang Jiao is at best just a Taoist priest with some ability, but there is no hero at the time, Zhang Jiao can be regarded as having a good time, seizing this opportunity and soaring into the sky, has today's achievements, but in general it is still not worth mentioning, after all, Zhang Jiao is just one, how to say it, it is like an inflated pig urine bubble, it looks a little interesting, but as long as you gently prick it with your hand, then Zhang Jiao will be exposed. ”
Liu Xin originally wanted to use balloons as a metaphor, but suddenly found that there were no balloons in this era, so Liu Xin immediately thought of a suitable metaphor, which could be regarded as letting Liu Yu understand his meaning.
After listening to Liu Xin's words, Liu Yu was also relieved, after all, Liu Yu was still very worried about Zhang Jiao's strength, after all, Liu Yu also knew the strength of Liu Xin's "immortal master", so Liu Yu couldn't help but think of Zhang Jiao, who was known as the great virtuous teacher, but he was also called the "immortal master", so Liu Yu also began to worry that if Zhang Jiao really wanted to rebel, who would be able to deal with Zhang Jiao?
But now listening to Liu Xin's words, Liu Yu can be regarded as relieved, after all, Liu Yu still believes in Liu Xin's statement more, and believes that Zhang Jiao is not a Taoist priest with a little strength, the real strength is vulnerable, and when the time comes, as long as some marksmen are arranged, they can deal with Zhang Jiao.
However, although Liu Yu is relieved about Zhang Jiao, Liu Yu has not forgotten Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao believers, after all, as Liu Xin said, although Zhang Jiao's strength is very limited, but Zhang Jiao's luck is good, he just encountered a rare opportunity, so Taiping Dao will be so strong, Zhang Jiao's influence can be so huge, and those rebels in the previous dynasty are also some ordinary people, and their influence is not as good as Zhang Jiao, so Liu Yu is still worried about the Taiping Dao led by Zhang Jiao, It is very likely that it will become a fuse like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang back then, to push the rule of the Han Dynasty!
If Liu Xin knew what Liu Yu was thinking now, Liu Xin would definitely be amazed at Liu Yu's ability to judge the current situation, and he had already guessed that the Taiping Dao led by Zhang Jiao would bring a devastating blow to the rule of the Han court.
So thinking of Liu Yu here, he couldn't help but say to Liu Xin: "Brother Ziji, in this case, why don't we report Zhang Jiao and his Taiping Dao to Your Majesty, now the Taiping Dao is beyond the scope of the imperial court's tolerance, and there is no need to exist, so I think as long as you tell Your Majesty about this matter, Your Majesty should choose to send troops to suppress Taiping Dao." ”
Of course, Liu Xin will not agree with Liu Yu's suggestion, after all, according to Liu Yu's current thoughts, it is undoubtedly forcing Taiping Dao to launch the Yellow Turban Uprising now, but this is not good news for Liu Xin, and it can even be said to be bad news, after all, Liu Xin has not returned to Yizhou yet, so if the Yellow Turban Uprising, Liu Xin will definitely be sent to the front line to fight with Zhang Jiao, so at that time, Liu Xin will not be able to gain his own benefits in the Yellow Turban Uprising, and the Yellow Turban Uprising that happened in such a hurry, It will not have much impact on the rule of the Han court, so it is not in Liu Xin's personal interests, so Liu Xin does not intend to continue to speak according to Liu Yu's wishes.
Therefore, Liu Xin decided to tell Liu Yu something more realistic, "Brother Bo'an, do you think that no one has found out about such a serious matter except you, I think this is impossible, now all the capable people in Luoyang City basically know what Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao is, and there is a geometry for the threat to the rule of the Han Dynasty, but no one has reported this matter to His Majesty so far, what does this mean, it shows that they all feel that it is not time to tell Your Majesty about this matter, After all, I heard that someone has already told His Majesty the news and disadvantages of Taiping Dao, and the result is either that it will not be resolved, or the whistleblower will end up with the fate of being exiled, so I can also tell Brother Bo'an that Taiping Dao also has their internal response in Luoyang City, or a protective umbrella, such as the ten permanent servants who have now controlled His Majesty's daily life, and they have secretly controlled the news channels for His Majesty to obtain information from the outside world. Even the twists and turns of Shangshutai must be screened by the ten permanent servants before they can reach the heavens, so if the ten permanent servants are the umbrella of the Taiping Dao, then there is no need to say more about this matter, it is impossible for Your Majesty to know the current situation of the Taiping Dao, and even if Your Majesty knows what kind of scale the Taiping Dao has now, it is beyond a normal range, but as long as the ten permanent servants make a hindrance, I am afraid that Your Majesty will still not take these things as a thing, after all, Brother Bo'an, you and I are all relatives of the Han family, Naturally, he knew the influence of this eunuch on His Majesty. ”
After listening to Liu Xin's words, Liu Yu couldn't help but sigh helplessly, after all, just like Liu Xin said, Liu Yu naturally knew how huge the influence of eunuchs on the emperor was, especially like today's Ten Standing Servants to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, "Zhang Rang is my father, Zhao Zhong is my mother", but from the mouth of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, although Liu Yu was heartbroken about this, but there was nothing to be done, so Liu Xin mentioned that the Ten Standing Servants might be the umbrella of Taiping Dao, Liu Yu knew that even if he went to the palace, Tell Emperor Han Ling all the things in Taiping Dao, and the final result will definitely be unresolved.
Therefore, thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but sigh again, and then said helplessly to Liu Xin: "Brother Ziji, you are right, your Majesty has won the trust of Your Majesty for the Ten Standing Attendants, especially Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, but this is understandable, Your Majesty cleaned up the Dou family, a troubled relative, with their support, Your Majesty believes that it is also a normal thing, but now Your Majesty has been fascinated by the Ten Standing Attendants, which is a bad thing. It's a pity that I don't have the ability to change all this, but I think you have the ability to change all this! ”
According to the unspoken rules of the Han Dynasty, the rights of the Han clan relatives have been weakened little by little by the emperors of the past dynasties, after all, that generation of emperors is not willing to inherit the throne with their own heirs, no one wants their relatives to suddenly come out and take their throne, after all, in the early days of the Western Han Dynasty, but many powerful Han clan relatives rebelled, intending to usurp the throne, the most famous of which is probably Liu Xin's cheap "ancestor" - Liu An, the king of Huainan, so starting from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, It continues to weaken the rights in the hands of the Han clansmen, as well as the privileges and benefits they enjoy, so in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the Han clansmen are basically "Anle Gong", although they enjoy a good life, but there are not many actual rights in their hands, just like Liu Yu's father, he also served as the Taishou of Danyang, not even a state assassin history, unlike the early Western Han Dynasty, the Han clan relatives are all princes and kings of one party, or vassal kings.
Of course, the results of this are also good and bad, the good thing is that this does make the emperor's dominance over the world have been enhanced, and the real "lead the land on the coast, is not the king's minister" This sentence, after all, in the early days of the Western Han Dynasty, the land that the emperor can directly govern is about half of the territory of the Han Dynasty, and the remaining half is in the hands of the major vassal kings, although it is nominally under the rule of the emperor, in fact, the emperor's influence on these regions is not as strong as those vassal kings. And now Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty has controlled the entire Han Dynasty in his hands, which can be regarded as the consolidation of imperial rule.
However, the disadvantages of this are also very obvious, that is, the Han can be said to have changed from "the family world" to the "human world", originally the Han Dynasty was the world of the entire Liu family, but now it has become the world of the Liu family where the emperor is located, and even the world of the emperor alone, in addition to the Liu family where the emperor is located, the other Han family relatives are basically in a situation where there is no sense of existence, and now take Liu Yu's father out and say, Liu Yu's father's influence is limited to the area around Danyang City, And just like Liu Bei's self-proclaimed King Jing of Zhongshan, he was able to decline to the time when his descendants came out to sell straw shoes, and no one felt that there was anything wrong, which shows that today's Han clan relatives have been suppressed into something, and the current emperor must be happy to see such a situation, after all, this can consolidate their rights, of course, the biggest disadvantage of this is that it is possible for external forces to hijack the royal power, just like the situation of Emperor Han Ling, the powerful relatives of the Dou family supported Emperor Han Ling to ascend the throne, controlled the government in disguise, but the other Han clan relatives dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, because they had no soldiers and no power in their hands, what to do with their relatives Dou Jia? And now the ten permanent servants are in chaos, and the Han clan members can only stand aside and watch the play, because they have nothing to do...
By the way, after Dong Zhuo's chaos in the world, the influence of the royal power was greatly hit, and this time the Han clan relatives regained some rights and relied on their own identities to occupy a state, which is also the reason why Liu Yu, Liu Biao, Liu Yan, Liu Dai and other Han clan relatives appeared in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, Liu Yu also knows that as long as there are ten permanent servants as the umbrella of Taiping Dao, he has no ability to persuade Emperor Han Ling to attack Taiping Dao, so now Liu Yu can only hope that Liu Xin, an outlier, can solve this problem, after all, Liu Xin, a member of the Han family, is a real power prince, and has a strong right to speak, Liu Yu thinks that if Liu Xin reports the situation of Taiping Dao to Emperor Han Ling, then even the ten permanent servants dare not come forward for Taiping Dao at will.
