Chapter 233: The Prince's Wrath

Within a few days, the city of Chang'an began to spread the documentary of the southern expedition, the legendary story of the 200,000 army annihilating the southern Sanyue, and at the same time, the rewards of Cao Shi, the general of the two great heroes of Pingnan, and Zhuang Qingzhai, the captain of the guard.

"The general of the chariot cavalry will seal 3,000 households and give 2,000 catties of gold, and the guard will seal 2,000 households and give 1,000 gold, among the generals, there are 15 people in the customs and 1,235 people in the high lords, and everyone will be rewarded according to merit!"

"It is not easy to win the southern expedition, the imperial court rewards are deserved by the soldiers, we want to congratulate the soldiers of the southern expedition."

"If it weren't for my bad hands and feet, I would definitely join the army and go to the south to fight Mitsukoshi to receive a reward."

"Hey, the reward seems to be a little low."

The citizens of Chang'an reacted quickly, and quickly noticed that the reward was not quite right, and the night Lang country was just past last year, and people with good memories still remember the reward announced last year, and the meritorious person was also a general of the chariot cavalry, and last year's reward was to seal 5,000 households, and this year, the reward for destroying the two countries has decreased but not increased.

Not only the citizens of Chang'an felt strange, but also the big and small bureaucrats in the imperial court were very surprised, they clearly remembered that the general Cao Shi was a big celebrity in the imperial court, and the Son of Heaven had always been obedient to the general of the cavalry, although the guards of the foreign domains were not in Beijing in the past two years, but there were not a few rewards sent to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion during the New Year's holidays.

Suddenly, the taste changed, and the officials who were not qualified to touch the affairs of the imperial court could not understand it.

The Wu'an Hou Mansion was full of guests, a small half of the civil and military ministers who had heads and faces in the court came, more than half of the wealthy businessmen came, and there were even more countless three sects and nine streams who wanted to cheer and were not qualified to step into the mansion.

Tian Wei was proud, and he jumped from Tingwei to Taiwei, but the difference in power was much worse. Tingwei advocated the world's criminal and prison lawsuits, but the security of Chang'an City was not under his control. After leaving the customs, the court lieutenant was beyond the reach of the whip, and was only responsible for reviewing the capital crime cases sent from various places. The Tai Lieutenant is different, equivalent to the highest commander of the three armed forces, and the highest military officer in non-wartime.

"I heard that there are rumors in Chang'an City that the Southern Expedition is rewarded, Pingyang Hou Yifeng has 3,000 households, Wuqiang Hou Yifeng has 2,000 households, and there are people who complain about the two of them."

"Hmph, relying on the grace of the Son of Heaven to become a general, I was lucky enough to destroy a few small countries and get a reward from the heavens, and I can also destroy a few small countries if I come to be a general."

"Which of the founding generals did not have the credit of destroying several countries. There are only a few princes in 5,000 households, and there is nothing wrong with the merit of the Marquis of Pingyang, but it is too small compared to the merits of the founding generals. ”

"That is to say, it is not appropriate to destroy a country and seal 5,000 households, and it is more reasonable to seal 3,000 households.

The guests present were desperately touting, and a small number of guests remained silent, for the guests who did not speak. Tian Weihun didn't care, he couldn't get everyone's support, as long as those people didn't jump out against him, he succeeded.

He didn't mind telling the guests to show off his abilities. Only he knew in his heart that it was the Son of Heaven himself who really worked, and the Son of Heaven had other opinions about the Che Cavalry General.

It is normal for Liu Che to have an opinion. The young emperor spent his third year in power, and for three years the country and the people were safe. The internal innovation has been carried out steadily, and the external war has been won again and again. After only three years as emperor, his merits were comparable to the fifteen years of struggle of the first emperor, and the territories of several countries destroyed by the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu were similar to those of Nanyue, Fujian and Guangdong, Dongou and Yelang.

The emperor's self-confidence will be greatly improved, the emperor's determination to make government decrees will be stronger, his opinions will be firmer, and in short, it will be more difficult to advise.

If you want the emperor to accept the persuasion, there is a way, when it comes to the emperor's heart, the Son of Heaven will say whatever he is most worried about, and the Son of Heaven is worried that the general of the chariot will be high, so he will do his best to amplify the worry of the Son of Heaven, as long as the Son of Heaven is tempted, it will be successful, and Liu Che was persuaded in this way.

Tian Wei and Cao Shi are irreconcilable, he doesn't mind letting outsiders know his direct thoughts, he is a staunch anti-Cao Shi faction, anti-liehou faction, as long as the Son of Heaven feels that his logo is very necessary to save zΓ i, he can easily keep the throne of Taiwei, Cao Shi will never be able to fight him.

The feast dispersed, and Wu Anhou's staff gathered together.

Tian Wei admonished: "Don't get carried away, we must remember that we must not be a direct enemy with the general of the cavalry, we just need to remember that the general of the cavalry has offended a lot of people, but many people are like me who do not want to directly conflict with the general of the cavalry, what we have to do is to find an opportunity to knock down the towering tree bit by bit, the reason why the general can stand is the support of the Son of Heaven, if the Son of Heaven does not support the general of the cavalry?" ”

"Can the prince tell me about the attitude of the Son of Heaven? What do you think of the Che Cavalry General. ”

Tian Wei's pride was swept away: "The Son of Heaven still values Pingyang Hou very much, all I can do is to bury a thorn and loosen the relationship between the Son of Heaven and the Che Cavalry General, I can't see much impact now, but I believe that over time, the towering tree of Pingyang Hou will definitely fall." ”

On the same night, in the pavilion of Wei Qihou's mansion, a few dishes of exquisite side dishes, three middle-aged people drank wine to the moon.

Dou Ying was wearing a thin summer shirt, coarse hemp clothes were ventilated and breathable, and the crown was taken off and a hairpin was made to fix the bun, like a hermit living in the countryside, raising a glass to Mingyue with emotion in his heart: "The Son of Heaven finally listened to the advice of the captain, it's a pity!" ”

"I don't know what the prince regrets?"

"It's a pity that the Che Cavalry General was suppressed too early, it would be better to give me a few more years."

Gongsun Hong was very surprised and asked: "I vaguely remember that the prince doesn't like the style of the general of the chariot and cavalry, why should it be a pity?" ”

Dou Ying smiled but did not speak.

Just like the opinion of many bureaucrats, Dou Ying also doesn't like Pingyang Hou Cao very much, a young man of 20 years old has an arrogant personality, does things arbitrarily and runs rampage, and has made a lot of contributions.

Dou Ying himself doesn't like his style, it doesn't mean that he should completely disappear from Chang'an City, the best way to deal with Cao Shi should be hung up as the mascot of the imperial court, and make Cao Shi a meritorious, famous, and capable of calming people's hearts as a court mascot, to ensure that there is always an alternative plan in the court to use at any time, and it doesn't matter if he is a high-ranking official and has the grace of Houlu. The more glory there is, the greater the pressure on your back.

The reason is very simple, Cao Shi, who has great merit, high prestige and strong ability. will definitely become a key role for the emperor and the imperial court, just like Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, who was monitored and suppressed. As long as Cao Shi still has a trace of normal thinking in his head, he will not dare to move at all, and he will be cautious when befriending bureaucrats, and the constraints of the Hou Mansion will be strict and strict, like a huge spider web entanglement around him from all directions, forcing him to shrink in Chang'an City as a mascot.

"What a pity! The best time to do it before it is ripe, and the determination of the Son of Heaven is too arbitrary and too frizzy, and it should not be. ”

Gongsun Hong suddenly realized.

Dong Zhongshu was dissatisfied: "Junhou is not right, I think that Pingyang Hou has great talents." It is a mistake that the natural talent cannot make the best use of it, it is a pity that the Son of Heaven does not need to do it, the court does not need to be very sad, and it is too sad for hundreds of officials to avoid taboos! ”

"Oh? I don't know what Mr. Dong thinks? The two of them listened.

"The two of you should know that Pingyang Hou is very knowledgeable, originally I couldn't understand the "Theory of Money", many people in Chang'an City couldn't understand it, they only felt that the language was simple and obscure, like a book from heaven, and I had heard a lot of distortions and slanders. Although I don't quite agree with the dirty water poured by those who have a heart, and I can't tell what is so good about "Monetary Theory", I just held "Monetary Theory" in my ignorance and read it for more than two years without finding anything, until I changed my opinion by chance. At the beginning of this year, he was invited by Taixue to be a guest lecturer, and on the premise of not affecting the edict of Jinmamen, he took four days a month to give a lecture on "Ram Spring and Autumn" in Taixue. In the first few months, I often went to Taixue to listen to lectures, and I accidentally listened to a new course, which was very interesting. The young lecturer was teaching the Theory of Money. ”

After a pause, the other two had very different expressions. Unconsciously sit up straight and listen.

Dong Zhongshu said: "The lecturer is less than 30 years old, the way of lecturing is very novel, he is taking the small things around him as an example to deeply interpret the relationship between money and the market, sometimes quoting scriptures and classics, sometimes witty words to make people laugh, a class is fascinated and difficult to extricate myself, where I listened to the course for three months, made a few thick notes, and I combined with the "Theory of Money" to watch it is really beneficial." ”

Dou Ying was taken aback: "Mr. Dong has to convert to Huang Lao Xinxue?" ”

"How dare you! The more I read and listen, the more I admire the wisdom of the sages, "Monetary Theory" is to expound the things that cannot be clearly explained in the "Pipe", and describe the simple market laws in the most simple language, "Pipe" is limited to the influence of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the important ideas cannot be explained clearly one by one, so there is the appearance of "Monetary Theory", which is precisely the essence of the small words! ”

Gongsun Hong was also surprised, he understood too well the original meaning of the four words "micro words and great righteousness", "Ram Spring and Autumn" expounded exactly the four words of "micro words and great righteousness", with the simplest example to prove an important truth, Dong Zhongshu is just one of the three major authors of "Ram Spring and Autumn", the whole secret is a secret known to the top of the Confucian academic community, Gongsun Hong and Dong Zhongshu have a close relationship, and he is also a great Confucian, qualified to know this secret.

The world-famous Confucian suddenly praised the subtlety of the "Theory of Money", and it seems that Cao Shi was greatly inspired to write a new Confucian work, and this idea itself was of epoch-making significance.

"Mr. Dong......"

Dou Ying was surprised and slapped the wine cup, and the wine soaked through his clothes and still didn't feel it.

He himself is a Confucian student, although he is still far from the realm of pure Confucianism, not to mention the realm of Confucianism and Confucianism, but his vision is not shallow, and he can hear the meaning of Dong Zhongshu's praise, writing a Confucian book is a very crazy idea, Confucianism has always been famous for its ancient times, even if it is written in the name of the ancestors, Dong Zhongshu intends to set a precedent, and his courage and courage are incomparable.

Dong Zhongshu said: "Pingyang Hou Cao Shi is a great person, and he will become a famous grandmaster in the near future, we can't destroy a great academic grandmaster for our own selfishness, that is a loss to the Han family, but also a loss to future generations." ”

The turmoil suddenly broke out, blowing a pool of stagnant water in Chang'an City, and how many people hibernated the movements of the imperial court.

On this day, the sun was shining.

Eighty lieges and more than twenty princes appeared in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion collectively, they had a clear purpose and a firm will.

"Pingyang Hou! We can't afford to sit still! Tian Wei must be killed! Otherwise, sooner or later our princes will die completely! Changwu Marquis Danjia was like a raging fire, and he spoke in a loud voice, and the periosteum of his ears was buzzing. It's like a lion roaring.

The princes' faces were gloomy and murderous, and a word popped out of their mouths.

Kill!

Fill the strong hand holding the dagger. He sneered and showed his snow-white teeth, like a beast biting its prey: "I can make the Wu'an Hou Mansion raze to the ground overnight." Tian Wei had no power to fight back. ”

The liehous from Yulin are all like wolves and tigers, trained for many years and experienced the baptism of fighting, all of them have the courage to fight tigers and leopards with their bare hands, not to mention the small Wu'an Hou Mansion blocking the way, even the inner palace of Weiyang Palace cannot stop their footsteps.

"You're crazy!"

Miao Hou Li was sweating profusely: "You are the ministers of the humerus of the Son of Heaven, what is the assassination of important ministers of the court?" Are you going to rebel? ”

Zhou Zuoche rolled his eyes: "Rebellion? We've done it! Forty-one years ago, has Miao Hou forgotten it? ”

Li Jian was like falling into an ice cave, and his whole body was as soft as noodles and he sat down.

Today is 139 BC, and 41 years ago is 18o BC, when the Chang'an coup d'Γ©tat that shocked the world was born. Destroy Zhulu.

The whole process is familiar to everyone present, the contradiction between Zhu Lu and the liehou is extremely intense, simply described as if either you die or I die, it is understandable that the liehou will kill all Zhu Lu first.

After killing Zhu Lu, the princes suddenly appeared a big problem, when the son of heaven Emperor Han Shaodi is still in the world, this is the flesh and blood of Emperor Hui of Han Dynasty, after killing Zhu Lu should be loyal to Emperor Han Shaodi, but how can the princes rest assured. In case Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty had a close relationship with Zhu Lu, and quietly kept the hatred of Zhu Lu being killed in his heart, waiting for the full-fledged wings to kill all the princes with his backhand, where would they go to cry?

I can't be at peace when I think about it. Zhou Bo, the Marquis of Jiang, discussed with Chen Ping, the Marquis of Qu Rebellion, and simply slaughtered Emperor Shaodi of Han without doing anything, and by the way, he killed all the sons of Emperor Hui of Han. It was claimed to the public that Emperor Shaodi of Han and his brother were not descendants of Emperor Hui of Han, and that they were all conspiracies concocted by Zhu Lu. A puppet who is only preparing for the usurpation of the throne.

This reason really fooled the whole world, but he couldn't help but see the princes and kings who had a close relationship with Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty. That stubble of princes and kings is not two or three big cats and kittens now, there are a number of King Qi, King Zhao, and King Chu are all famous in the world, and Liu Bi, the king of Wu who is the head of the Liu clan a few decades later, has a low status among the princes and kings, and every prince and king in front of him is very powerful.

Killing the descendants of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty was complicit in rebellion, Yan zhΓ²ng betrayed Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Taizu Gao, and the princes couldn't manage too much for self-protection, so they made a big drama of electing the emperor, King Qi and King Chengyang felt that they were directly qualified to be emperors, but the princes joined forces to elect a shallow foundation of the acting king Tianzi, and the acting king Liu Heng ascended the throne and called the emperor, that is, Emperor Wen of Han.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne first thing to suppress the princes, regardless of whether they participated in the killing of the Han Shaodi, all of them were dismissed from their posts and returned to the feudal country to be the landlord, in order to suppress the actions of the princes, it was also specially stipulated that the princes were not called to enter Beijing at will, and they were not allowed to leave the feudal country at will if they were not called, and sent the county guard (Taishou) to the counties to monitor the movements of the princes.

"If we do it once, can't we do it again? Afraid of being a timid turtle, maybe one day he will be killed by the emperor's blunt knife, wake up! ”

Tang Xian, the Marquis of Qiuqiu, lay down with a weak leg, there was no liehou to laugh at his cowardice and cowardice, and not everyone had the courage to do it if he made up his mind to do it, before killing the young emperor of the Han Dynasty, the princes also went through fierce debates, and the Pingyang Marquis Cao Wei had resolutely opposed it, so the first thing that Emperor Wen of Han did when he ascended the throne was to kick people, Cao Wei was kicked away because of political disagreement, and Zhou Bo was unlucky afterwards, and Cao Wei did not help, until Zhou Bo experienced the disaster of imprisonment and realized that the two families resumed normal exchanges.

There must be opponents, but will the princes back down at the slightest opposition?

The princes were armed nobles, and the emperor cut off the military power of the princes, but which prince did not have private soldiers in his hands?

Except for the two armies of the north and the south, the princes are not afraid of anyone in the world.

However, the two armies of the north and south happened to be in the hands of the liehous, the guard captain of the southern army, Wuqiang Hou Zhuang Qingzhai, the lieutenant of the northern army, the lieutenant of the northern army, Wuyang Hou Fan Itguang, and the 300,000 army was pinched in the hands of the liehous.

Cao Shi pretended to sleep for a long time and slowly opened his eyes: "Don't panic!" It's not that bad. ”

"Oops! How can the Marquis of Pingyang have the kindness of a woman! When the time comes, it will be time to merit the Liehou clan to perish! ”

"Pingyang Hou, you once told us the story of boiling frogs in warm water. I feel like we're the frog soaking in warm water, and when the water boils, it's our time to die. ”

"It's not that we're surprised. The lessons of the first emperor are in front of him, if it were not for the fact that the first emperor was suddenly seriously ill. In addition, the tongue of the Marquis of Pingyang is like a flower to persuade the first emperor, we don't know how many young people to have a hard life for the liehous, when today's Zi Wenzhi martial arts far from the first emperor, the only empress dowager Dou Yifang who can restrain the Son of Heaven went to Lin Guanggong and did not ask about the world, if the Son of Heaven wants to do something to the liehou, it is easy to remove the lieutenant and the guard with only one edict, and then we will be toothless tigers, waiting to die! ”

Most of the older princes did not say a word, but their expressions were clear. It is essential to prevent micro problems and make the first move.

Cao Shi's face sank: "Killing can't solve the problem, if you kill Tian Wei, you will have to kill more people, and in the end, the emperor will not kill him?" When the prestige of the son is high today, how can we be motivated, and we should be great rebellious courtiers? What face do we have to meet our fathers and fathers? ”

"Assassination! The first emperor had more than a dozen sons. ”

"No, you can't!"

"Give birth to a prince and then kill."

"Who can you hide it?"

"Control zhì puppet."

Cao Shi shook his head: "It's not proper, you can't hide it from someone with a heart, we are liehous, not Zhao Gao, be careful of betraying your relatives." ”

The princes bowed their heads and remained silent.

The old man who was over eighty years old suddenly laughed: "Pingyang Hou is a good boy!" If you agree to the actions of those bastard boys, the old man will go straight to Weiyang Palace to accuse you of the conspiracy. It's good that you can keep the bottom line, the old man is not wrong! ”

Chen He's lungs were about to explode, and he jumped up: "Gao Liang Hou Li's scabies!" You think we don't dare to kill! ”

"Shaft! When the old man followed Taizu to fight the world, your father was not born yet! ”

"Humph! A life-or-death moment. You old man is still showing his qualifications, and you can't be foolish! ”

Suddenly there was a quarrel between the two sides, and many of the princes remained silent. The disagreement was obvious, but few people really dared to sue it. It's not that I'm worried about being retaliated against by the liehou group, but it's cold.

Bang!

Cao Shi smashed the case with one palm: "Shut up for me immediately!" The lieves did not look like liehous. Sit down! ”

Whether young or old, the princes sat back obediently, Cao Shi was rarely angry, and even the old princes were frightened when he was suddenly angry, especially there was no sense of color in his murderous eyes, as if he was locked by a poisonous snake.

"I know your worries and anger, is it a day or two for the Emperor of the Liu family to be mean and unkind? Our privileges are stripped of little by little, except for some princes who have been killed for violating the law, and who have no children and no heirs, every year there are princes who have been removed from the country for various reasons, and where can we go to complain about their grievances? Waiting for the emperor's conscience to be restored one day, it is better to wait for the gold and silver to fall from the sky, and wait slowly until sooner or later, the princes and kings will perish, and the Han Empire will be destroyed in the hands of the dictatorial emperor. Useless! ”

Cao Shi's face was as black as a piece of coal, his fists clenched and his joints crackled, you can imagine how deep the anger in his heart was.

"I know the crisis of the liehou better than any of you, I tried hard to suppress the expansion of the imperial power, but this qiΔ“ is destined to be in vain, just like Emperor Taizu Gao forcibly promoted Xiao He back then, and insisted on making him the first meritorious, my family's Taigong merit second, giving Xiao He 8ooo households, and compensating 2ooo households afterwards, Xiao He's wife is also a liehou, and more than a dozen relatives of the Xiao family have food and eup, at that time, only the Xiao family had this grace, a minister who completely did not abide by the rules and had no scruples, what can we do about the liehous? Helpless!

Another example is how can Lu Xuan, the king of Yan, be the king of the princes, isn't it just that he was born as a playmate of Taizu in the same year, the same month and the same day, just such a waste with little merit and humble status became the king of Yan, and rebelled again! What do we say? Emperor Taizu Gao is so wise and powerful, just like a great emperor like him, he can't curb the expansion of imperial power, can you expect Emperor Liu to have the will to stifle the expansion of imperial power? You will understand the reason why the monarch of the Jin Kingdom was assassinated twice in the Spring and Autumn Period! ”

The princes were shocked, and after reading the history books, it suddenly dawned on them that the two Jin monarchs were because the monarch's power was so inflated that the princes couldn't stand it, so they killed the monarch of the Jin State and set up a new monarch.

I didn't pay much attention to it when I read it before, but when every prince realized the terrible expansion of imperial power, I was really worried.

"Pingyang Hou, what do you mean is also ......"

"Nope! The times are different, we can no longer do the attempt of the Spring and Autumn Period, you don't see Xiang Yu kill the righteous emperor and cause the world to be angry, there is a defeat from the Wujiang River, 41 years ago the big mistake cast 41 years of suffering of the liehous, and sooner or later let the liehou exterminate, we can't be stupid and paranoid people, we must think about the glory and wealth of future generations, and the longevity of happiness. ”

"And what do you mean?"

"Fight out, go south, go west, what Zhao Tuo and Wei Man have done, we can also do it again, do you remember Zhou Yafu's unjust death, and the nursery rhyme that circulated in Chang'an City?"

Zhuang Qingzhai sang: "Good man, ask for the king." ”

"You mean to ......"

Cao Shi shook his head: "It's okay not to be crowned a king, restore the system of fifty years ago, and the princes and princes are in charge of military power and governance power too much?" ”

"Not too much at all." Chen He danced excitedly. (To be continued!)
