Liu Che's good days are not a few days to pass, in late August Weiyang Palace came to the news that the Son of Heaven was critically ill, according to the usual August every year in August the Son of Heaven led the princes to sacrifice and also changed to the prince to do the work, Chang'an outside the city gathered from the six kingdoms of the Kwantung princes and kings. novel

Cao Shi's days were also very busy, in the early Han Dynasty, no family could escape the jurisdiction of the number of household registrations, and the powerful landlords from all over the country were counted with more than 1oo yuan, and there were more than 4o households of wealthy merchants.

There are only about 230,000 households in Hedong County, with a total population of nearly 1oo people, and more than 4o households means that there are at least 150,000 people, accounting for 23% of the total population of the Han Empire, in other words, accounting for nearly 5% of the total population.

Nearly 5% of the rich are among his migrants, which is almost impossible for many people to move at one time, not to mention that Guanzhong is indeed not stuffed with so many people, 5oo million people and 15o more, the contradiction between supply and demand of land will suddenly sharpen, and the grain transported from Kanto to Guanzhong will also increase day by day, and it is difficult to quickly increase one-third of the capacity with the current situation of Caoyun.

At the beginning, he boasted about Haikou, the ministers opposed it, and the prince supported it, if he made a tiger and didn't migrate, it would be tantamount to slapping himself in the face, and even more so slapping the prince Liu Che's face.

How to migrate becomes a new trouble, and if it is not handled well, it is likely to cause violent commotion.

Cao Shi's method of dealing with it was very simple, first ordering nearly 5o people from 100,000 untouchable households in Guanzhong to move to the six countries of Kanto, and at the same time ordering the 100,000 richest households in the six countries, 5o million people to move into Beijing and move into Lingyi.

These 5o thousand households have at least dozens of hectares of fertile land. Most of them live in Nanyang County, Runan County, Yingchuan County, Pei County, Chenliu County and other powerful landlords close to the Central Plains, and there are also considerable populations in Hedong, Henan and Hanoi.

The whole process took a long time, and 20,000 people were migrated to Beijing to fill the vacancy in Yangling within this year. In this way, the population of Yangling has changed from less than 10,000 people to nearly 20,000 people in an instant.

The ancients still knew that the flowing water does not rot and the household hub does not beetle, and it is not difficult to understand the truth that people replace the weak and retain the strong, keep the base of 5oo people in Guanzhong unchanged, and move all the untouchables into Kanto to rent their fields, and live better in Kanto, where there is more land and fertility, and the prices in Kanto are cheaper, and the untouchables will only be grateful for his kindness. And don't be disgusted by the long distance of migration.

It is also very convenient for the local bureaucrats to manage, after all, they are all untouchables, and there is a separate book of the Shaofu for population management. They only need to use a separate copy of the Shaofu to record the population changes, check the households, collect taxes on time, and share the forced labor, and the untouchables are much easier to control than ordinary civilians, and they have always been the focus of the government's watch. Untouchables who dare to break the law and commit crimes will be guilty of an additional degree.

The system worked wonders immediately. The untouchables in Guanzhong enthusiastically signed up to take the initiative to participate, compared to the perfect land in Guanzhong, there are arable land to be cultivated in Kanto waiting for them, as long as they work hard to earn more money and accumulate, maybe they can wait for ten or eight years to accept Su Baiju, even if it is only the lowest-level civil lord can also offset the household registration of the untouchables, what they are most afraid of is to stop Nasu Baijue, which means that the untouched people can only be prisoners. Go to the battlefield and use your head to spell out a free body.

What they were worried about was exactly what Cao Shi was considering. He is at the top of the military merit system, and it is necessary to consider the stakeholders within the military merit lord, and curbing the indiscriminate granting of civil titles is exactly what every military merit lord expects, and the more valuable the title, the higher the gold content of the military merit.

Prime Minister Wei Juan said worriedly: "I have seen your proposal, there is a big problem with canceling the mention of Nasu Baijue, the original intention of Nasu Baijue is to encourage production, and your mention of the reckless cancellation of Nasu Baijue will cause a great backlash." ”

"I also think that Nasu Baijue still has the meaning of zĂ i, and I think it can be used with a slight restriction." Zhi Budo said.

Cao Shi spread his hands and didn't care: "It's okay if you don't abolish it, Nasu Baijue can't pass the fifth-level doctor, so everyone can accept it." ”

Wei Juan nodded, Cao Shi has been more cooperative with his work recently, and the affairs inside and outside the court have been handled more smoothly, the crown prince has been busy with the government and the Son of Heaven's illness recently, and the princes and princes have not made much trouble in the capital, and the old man feels that it is not bad to continue to live according to today's situation.

The only thing that is not so good is that there are slightly more meritorious princes in the court, most of the Jiuqing are from meritorious princes, these people have recently followed the Pingyang Hou's ass and hugged closely, even if he is the respect of the prime minister, it is difficult to suppress them in government affairs, and the princes in the group hug each other, which is quite a headache.

Cao Shicai didn't care about him, his purpose was to consolidate the system of military meritorious, and he kicked out of the way in front of the military meritorious.

"Everything can not exceed the rules, Qin law is heavy and Thailand is stingy with rewards, so that although the Qin people have merit and the reward is too thin, this is too much, and the Han law has improved the title of knighthood to invite the world, but the big gift should not become an indiscriminate gift, too much will be disrespectful and inferior order, the people are all with the mind of Nasu Baijue, then the chaos in the world will arise, so strictly control the people to give the people is a good start, the people of the people are indiscriminately given, the gold content of the military merit is high, and the people of the world still have to make meritorious service to get the military merit."

The three princes and nine kings all agreed, anyway, all the people present here are high-ranking people, the title of the imperial doctor is the seventeenth-level chariot chief, and Langzhong Linghe is a sixteenth-level great master, and he has been up and down in the military merit system for more than 20 years, and the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu is a member of the meritorious reward, but the merit is not enough to be a marquis.

Out of Weiyang Palace, Shaofu's four ** carriages attracted the attention of many people, and there were at least seven or eight carriages around along the way, they were businessmen and celebrities from all over the world, in order to show their faces in front of Shaofu and say a few words, it was really painstaking.

"Shaofu, I'm a businessman from Pei County......"

"I'm a ...... from Zhao Kingdom"

"Shaofu, listen to me......"

Cao Shi's car kept moving forward, no matter how bold they were, they didn't dare to forcibly stop it, and the cavalry of the Northern Army patrolling the streets was staring at it fiercely, and as long as they crossed the slightest, they would immediately be caught in the prison of Lieutenant Zhong's mansion.

Similar to today's situation is very common, merchants from all over the country want to go through the back door from him, similar to the Linqiong Zhuo Wang Sun and others will send people to Beijing before each move to the tomb, as long as it is said that the Shaofu acquiesced to them to continue to stay in the same place, it is easy to say, there are many Shaofu do not buy the accounts of the merchants, so they need to ask the marquis to say a few words.

It's just that they are unlucky to meet him, it's useless to invite anyone to intercede if they don't eat soft and hard, it's useless to boast about the sky blowing in Haikou with righteousness, and it's nonsense for businessmen to claim that the minerals in some areas can't play without them, and in his eyes, there are so many important people in this era, and these businessmen are unfortunately not the characters he looks at.

When the carriage passed by the street, a fragrant breeze blew into the nose, with a faint smell of gardenia flowers was very eye-catching, Cao Shi gently lifted the curtain and looked out, only to see a carriage very close to him and parallel to him, in the car was a young lady with a peugeot appearance, seeing that her bun was not married, seeing Cao Shi's surprised eyes, he suddenly covered his mouth and giggled.

"Isn't this woman stupid? It's weird. Cao Shi closed the curtain and asked the groom to slow down, and sure enough, after a while, the carriage next to him was far away.

The princes and kings feasted in Beijing, and naturally divided into several groups of people according to kinship, and the princes and kings of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty did not mix with the princes and kings who founded the country at the beginning of the Han Dynasty.

Compared with the huge lineup of more than a dozen sons of the Son of Heaven, there are only two or three big cats and kittens left among the princes and kings who founded the country, and the situation of the princes and kings being strong and prosperous more than ten years ago is no longer the same.

The banquet lasted for many days, but because the Son of Heaven's condition was uncertain, the small scale of the banquet was also very traditional, and the princes and kings poured themselves drinks with their tails between their tails in the capital.

Liu Yan, the king of Chengyang, drank stuffy wine and scolded: "Look at the high-spirited appearance of those stinky boys, I am angry!" ”

"Don't be angry, our princes and kings have a hard time, the officials in the kingdom are picking their noses and eyes at us, and now the days are not very good, and everyone is sad if there is a stiffness between the princes and kings." Liu Hu, the king of Jibei, was the youngest, and his late father Liu Bo was the third son of Liu Chang, the king of Huainan, although he was young and low, no one dared to underestimate him, and the princes and kings were equal regardless of the status of large and small countries.

Liu Zhi, the king of Suchuan, made a round: "What the king of Jibei said makes sense, our princes and kings are not having a good time, and the princes and princes of the clan below are also very bad, so don't make trouble at this juncture." ”

The princes and kings chatted with each other, and they didn't know how to pull it to Liu An, the king of Huainan, and they aimed at Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, who was Liu An's younger brother, and also represented the words of the brothers.

Liu Dao, the king of Chu, asked with a smile: "Has the king of Huainan recovered from his illness?" I haven't come to Jingshi Taimiao to pay respects to my ancestors in the past few years, and I heard that the one in Changxin Palace is not very happy. ”

"Brother's body is still good, but the doctor told him not to move around too much, the more you walk, the more you breathe, you also know that the climate in the south is hot and humid, and it is very troublesome to travel and travel, so my brother asked the Son of Heaven for a favor to cultivate in the country." Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, was not satisfied with the explanation of the book, and several princes and kings casually laughed and revealed it.

The princes and kings present are not good at stubble, and from time to time they cast mocking glances at Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, which makes Liu Ci feel the pressure doubly uncomfortable, and the three large princes Liu Dao, the king of Chu, Liu Shou, the king of Qi, and Liu Dingguo, the king of Yan, do not treat him very much, which makes the whole banquet boring.

The feast dispersed, the princes and kings each returned to the post house to rest, and Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, retreated left and right in the room, and recruited his nephew Liu Qian, the crown prince of Huainan, who appeared at the banquet, and Liu Ling, the lord of Weng, who had not shown up.

Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, asked: "The old man has been busy dealing with the princes and kings these days, how much information have you two found in the Jingshi?" (To be continued!)
