Liang Xiao's plan was later proposed by the master's father.

Many people think that the Tui En Decree is a key measure to weaken the princes and kings and strengthen the centralization of power, but it is not. Freezing three feet, not a day's cold, many things are not a decision made by a genius on a whim and a pat on the head, but the natural result of the development of history to that point.

It is true that the Tui En Decree was proposed by the lord's father, but weakening the princes and kings and strengthening the centralization of power was a clear policy orientation as early as the establishment of the Han Empire. Liu Bang's eradication of kings with different surnames, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing's harsh treatment of kings with the same surname, and finally even provoked the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, are all continuations of this national policy.

Even if it is a theory, the master father is not the initiator, if you have to say that there is a genius, Jia Yi is that genius. The master father Yan just came up with the meeting and put forward this suggestion, and finally helped Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to implement this suggestion, and it was not the master father Yan who really played a key role, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty himself.

Without the master father, sooner or later there will be others who will make similar suggestions, and without the strong Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is a question when this policy will be implemented. Now, the master father Yan still doesn't know where to find a job, and Liang Xiao made this suggestion first.

Unlike the main father, the main father only proposed the Tui En Decree to seek personal interests, which at most objectively benefited the imperial court. Liang Xiao's proposal to push the grace order is far-reaching, and it is not just as simple as weakening the princes. He wants to use his strength to make the best use of all conditions to lead a generation of trends and ultimately influence the entire national policy.

Along the way, he was thinking about these things.

The Son of Heaven couldn't imagine how much thought Liang Xiao had put into this, but he was immediately attracted by Liang Xiao's suggestion.

It's a genius idea with a reason to refuse.

The court wants to cut the domain, and the princes and kings are not fools, how can they be restrained? Even the imperial court is strict. The strength of the kings is declining day by day, and cutting the feudal domain is still a matter that must be cautious. Although it is not a big country like Wu Chu, there are many kings, and once the anger of the people is aroused, the pressure on the imperial court is still very great.

Therefore, the imperial court had to find a suitable reason to cut the feudal domain. so as not to be criticized or even provoked to rebellion.

At the beginning of the Son of Heaven's accession to the throne, he was ambitious and high-spirited, and wanted to do something immediately, so he accepted the advice of the ministers, used various reasons to trouble the princes and kings, and prepared to solve this chronic problem in one fell swoop. Who knew that as soon as there was a move, the kings would fight back. Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, took the opportunity of the court meeting to make trouble and accused the local officials of oppressing the kings. It violated the way of kissing, and the kings responded for a while, and the momentum was huge. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Son of Heaven had no choice but to suspend the reduction of the feudal domain and give a great reward to appease the kings.

The reason for the kings' opposition to the reduction of the feudal domain was the way of kissing, and the Son of Heaven could not refute it, so he could only endure it. Now Liang Xiao has put forward a push order. Going with the flow, the way of kissing has become a reason to cut the domain. It made it impossible for the kings to oppose it, and gained the support of more royal children, and at the same time turned the resistance into invisibility, and also turned those clans without inheritance rights into supporters, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

The Son of Heaven immediately realized the subtlety of this suggestion, and couldn't help but applaud. He was even more guilty of doubting Liang Xiao's loyalty. As Liang Xiao himself said, as soon as this Tui En order comes out, Liang Xiao will inevitably become a thorn in the side of the kings. If he only thinks about his own interests, why should he do this? married the king of Huainan and married Liu Ling. Undoubtedly, it is in his best interest.

Now, it's a question of whether King Huainan can marry his daughter to him.

"I can marry you, but how can you propose?" The Son of Heaven smiled, and his tone became relaxed, even a little gloating. "You're not afraid that King Huainan will beat you out?"

"I'm afraid. Therefore, I would like to ask Your Majesty to suspend this policy until the minister marries the lord Weng home. ”

Tianzi smiled even more happily, a little bit of a feeling that friends were doing bad things together. "That's a good idea. However, if you really get to that point, I'm afraid it will be more difficult for Lord Weng to be caught between you. ”

"Is this......" Liang Xiao scratched his head. I can't care about it so much for a while, so let's talk about it then. ”

"Hahaha...... "The Son of Heaven laughed." Yes, as long as you can successfully propose, I will give you the officiant. ”

Liang Xiao was overjoyed and bowed back.

——

Liang Xiao left the palace and returned home, and the house was very lively.

Liang Yu was very well-behaved, and when he saw Liang Yuan, he called his mother and bowed down to his knees.

Before that, Liang Xiao had already sent someone to send a letter back, explaining that he had rescued Liang Yu and thought that the matter of his righteous sister was just that Liang Xiao had no impression of the township party who had lived at home for a period of time, and he was not too touched. However, when Liang Yu knelt alive in front of her and cried, she accepted Liang Yu at once.

No matter how intimate the son is, after all, he is not as close as the daughter to the mother. Liang Yuren is beautiful, and has the natural advantage of the same surname and fellow villagers, coupled with the sympathy caused by the tragic experience of his father's death, it only took a few tears to break Liang Yuan's heart defense and integrate into the family. Not only was she very intimate with Liang Yuan, but even Li Rongqing, Moon and others were overflowing with sympathy and couldn't cry because of her experience.

When Liang Xiao returned home, she seemed to be already a member of the Liang family.

Liang Xiao was very satisfied. The woman was not only beautiful, but also intelligent, and even better than he expected.

After settling down the affairs of the family, Liang Xiao rushed to Huainan Mansion again to see Liu Ling.

As soon as they met, Liu Ling teased: "This trip out, I didn't bring my concubine back, but I brought back a righteous sister?" It was an accident. ”

Liang Xiao didn't have time to joke with her, and talked straight to the point about Tui Enling. When Liu Ling heard this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared without a trace. She frowned and stared at Liang Xiao for a long time. "What exactly do you want to do at the risk of the world's condemnation?"

Liang Xiao smiled. Liu Ling did not accuse him of Meng Lang, but asked him about his true intentions, which was a heart-to-heart trust.

"If you think about it, how much of your current wealth comes from land?"

Liu Ling's eyes flashed, and he understood a little.

The annexation of land, to put it bluntly, is still for the sake of chasing wealth. For now, land is still the least risky and more profitable of all the ways to make money. An acre of land is less than a few tens of dollars, a good few hundred dollars, even the so-called soil plaster of the best land is only 10,000 dollars, but the land will not depreciate, if it goes well, at most two or three years can be recouped with investment, compared with business, the risk is almost zero.

However, the profits of land are limited, and if the advantage of low risk is discarded, the accumulation of wealth is far less rapid than that of industry and commerce. At this point, Liu Ling has a personal experience, the two unique businesses of double-sided brocade and glaze make her make money every day, and it only took a few years to get rich and rich.

To her, the land in those two counties is not worth mentioning at all.

"Land has limited profits, but it has two fatal shortcomings." Liang Xiao said calmly: "First, compete with the people for benefits and endanger national stability. The lack of agriculture and instability, and the occupation of a large amount of land by the magnates will inevitably lead to the displacement of the common people, and the taxes of the imperial court will be sharply reduced. In the long run, shaking the foundation of the imperial court, it is impossible for the imperial court to sit idly by, either by trickery or by grabbing, otherwise there will be civil revolts everywhere, and there is a worry of collapse. ”

Liu Ling nodded. Everyone knows the dangers of land annexation.

"Second, land is a fixed asset, and it is inconvenient to relocate." Liang Xiao blinked. "No matter how much land you have accumulated, once you lose power, even a piece of soil, you can't take it with you. Even if you want to get rid of it, I'm afraid you can only sell it cheaply, which is far less convenient than jewelry. ”

Liu Ling's eyes flashed. "Do you feel something, ready to flee at any moment?"

Liang Xiao knew what she was talking about, shook his head with a smile, and nodded again. "For now, there is no such danger. However, I can't be unprepared. ”

"If so, I can understand your thoughts. But why involve all the princes and kings? Do you know how many people will be involved? ”

"I'm just afraid there aren't enough people." Liang Xiao further explained: "The imperial power is supreme, and the power of the princes and kings is weakening day by day. Only when everyone unites to check and balance the imperial court can there be a glimmer of life. ”

"Without strength, even if we can unite, what is the use?"

"Not really. What you can do, others can do. It's just that they're not as smart as you, and they're not as good as you. Even so, it is better than occupying land and competing with the imperial court for this profit. You often say that Huang Lao's way is good, don't you know the truth of indisputable disputes? Instead of opposing the court on the land, it is better to avoid the real and make it big. ”

Liu Ling laughed. Eye waves. "Are you praising me, or are you praising yourself?"

"I praise you as well as myself." Liang Xiao also smiled, with indescribable pride. "If I'm not good, how can I win your favor?"

"It's going to coax people." Liu Ling glanced at him, and his heart was sweet. "Are you really going to lie to my father?"

"I don't want to. However, I don't know if your father can understand my good intentions as well. I really can't do it, I can only marry you back first. To be honest, this matter is very important, and I have some ideas, but whether I can implement them or not, I need your help. I'm afraid I can't do it so thoroughly. ”

Liu Ling smiled like a flower.

"Of course, I actually have another way, not only don't lie to your father, but also marry you home."

"What's the solution?"

Liang Xiao got up, walked to Liu Ling's side, whispered a few words in her ear. When Liu Ling heard this, his eyes were red, and he stretched out his hand to push him away. "Dengzi, this kind of shameless thing, you can also say it, aren't you afraid of people's jokes?"

Liang Xiao took it for granted. "What's so embarrassing about that? As long as you are willing to do so, who can say nothing? Besides, as long as I can hold the beauty, I dare to lie to the Son of Heaven, what else can't I do? ”

"You ......"

"Lord Weng, why don't you ......" Liang Xiao blinked. Let's give it a try first? ”

"Get out!" Liu Ling pushed Liang Xiao away, got up and fled. Liang Xiao reached out and grabbed her, threw her to the ground, and laughed. "Master Weng, the arrow is on the string, you just want to escape, is it a little late?" ——
