"Shang Rong?" Hearing Shang Rong's name, Chao Cuo was obviously a little surprised. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was probably the most unbelievable thing he'd ever heard today.

Shang Rong served as Shang Shuling?

Chao Cuo even felt that his brain was a little insufficient.

The reason is very simple, this business has no background at all!

He was only the son of a small lieutenant in Hanoi County, starting with his grandfather and counting up three generations, all of them mud legs.

His father was able to become an official back then, and he still relied on farming to grow well.

At that time, Emperor Taizong was particularly fond of promoting this kind of 'power field' that could farm and take care of crops, hoping that these power fields could lead the parents and villagers to get rich together.

Therefore, Shang's father was recommended as an official, starting from Qiangfu and continuing until he died of illness while serving as a county lieutenant.

It is said that the official reputation is not bad, and it is also quite popular among the people.

As his son, Shang Rong also got the opportunity to study because of his father's legacy.

However, the son of a petty official in Hanoi, under the circumstances at that time, unless a miracle occurred, it was impossible to worship any famous scholar Hongru as a teacher.

His teacher was just a doctor who had not returned to his hometown.

This kind of person, in the Han family, there are not 1,000, but also 800 -- basically, all the county commanders and above can basically mix the title of a certain doctor before retirement.

It is purely a symbolic title of honor without any real power.

Judging from Shang Rong's resume, his teacher did not give him any useful help in fact.

But it is such a son of a petty official who has no background, no backer, and even no capital, but he climbed all the way from the grassroots level to the position of the big farmer who is in charge of the agricultural power of the Han family and the country's major policies, and he has been doing it for four or five years.

The big farmers are up and down, no matter how big or small, this business is presiding.

It is rumored that this big farmer only sleeps less than two hours a day.

Every day, before the opening of the Da Nong Yamen, he had already arrived at the government office, and worked until the evening, when he returned home with a pile of official documents.

When going out to inspect and investigate, it is also to go directly to the grassroots level, enter the Luli, and study the problem face-to-face.

It is said that this big farmer is in a good mood, and he will pull up his trouser legs and work in the fields.

With his efforts, the Han dynasty began to build the Longshou Canal, build the Bao Slope Road, dig the Kunming Pond, play with the salt and iron official camp, protect the grain, and engage in the subsidy plan for fake animals, fake horses, and waterwheels.

None of these things went wrong.

Not even a single one of them went out of the way.

Shang Rong has thus become a representative figure of contemporary farmers.

Although the farmhouse is a school organization, it has long since ceased to exist.

However, Shang Rong has brought out thousands of capable agricultural officials and grassroots officials with very strong professional ability.

Judging from his political achievements, he deserves to be appointed as Jiuqing.

But here's the problem......

Chao Cuo couldn't figure out how he did all this?

And how can a minister like him, who has no background, no backing, and no factional support, get the support of other ministers attending the meeting?

The position of Shang Shuling, the pretenders are like carp crossing the river, and there are countless of them.

I'm afraid that on the day of the court meeting, the various factions will have to fight their dogs.

After all, persimmon pinching is something that everyone will do.

An official like Shang Rong, who has no background backers and factions, easily wants to climb to Shang Shuling and become Jiuqing?

Dream!

Even he, the imperial historian, wants to be promoted to prime minister, and he has to lift his head to complete the Weihe Cao transportation project, so that the Son of Heaven can have a reason to come to the marquis!

You must know that behind his mistakes, there is the support of the entire Legalist force, as well as the support of a large number of former emperors' ministers.

Why did Zhou Yafu recommend him?

Because he Chao Cuo and Zhou Yafu are both ministers left by the first emperor to the new monarch!

Theoretically, it's your own people.

What's in business?

Nothing!

Moreover, this guy may not offend fewer people than he wronged himself.

In the past few years, he, a big farmer, has held various policies jointly implemented by the Shaofu and the big farmers.

Liu She's slippery head, when he is in trouble, he pushes three, six or five, and even disappears directly.

And the business is ......

But no one will give face, or even save face at all.

Chao Cuo heard that he even dared to drive out the government office even the housekeeper of the eldest princess of the pavilion, and even the children of the Dou family acted recklessly, and he dared to arrest him and send him to Tingwei!

Which of the other princes and lords has not eaten deflated in front of him?

It is rumored that the general of the Che Cavalry, Dongcheng Hou Yizong, had a small hair, and once under the banner of the Yi Zong, he wanted to go to the big peasant to dump a batch of fake horse quotas to make profits, but the big farmer Cheng directly wrote to impeach the Che Cavalry General for abusing his private power and ignoring the law of the country.

In the end, the chariot general's hair was sentenced to abandon the city by the order of the Son of Heaven himself. Even Yizong was implicated and fined for half a year, except for 500 households.

Can this righteous indulgence give this merchant a good look?

Therefore, Chao Cuo didn't think that Shang Rong's personnel appointment and dismissal could be passed at the court meeting.

Unless the Son of Heaven insists on going his own way and uses his authority to promote this!

However, this will break the rules of the game of the Han court since Yuande - since the fourth year of Yuande, the appointment of all courtiers of 2,000 stones, especially Jiuqing, must be recommended by the court and obtain at least half of the votes.

Although, this system, in fact, is a fig leaf.

Since it was enacted, every time the Son of Heaven wants to appoint or dismiss an official, it will be unanimously approved.

But that was the result of Prime Minister Zhou Yafu's strong support and his full coordination.

In this change, Zhou Yafu wants to be a leader, he crossed the river with a mud bodhisattva, and it is difficult to protect himself, where can he have any strength to coordinate all aspects?

It's good not to be overwhelmed by all kinds of interference.

"This will of mine, Qing must fully cooperate with ......" Liu Che looked at Chao Cuo with a smile and said softly.

Liu Che naturally knows how many times Shang Rong has gone to landmines over the years?

Not to mention the side, the waterwheel subsidy policy and the fake livestock and fake farming plan of the big farmers are a big piece of fat.

I don't know how many princes, nobles and scholars coveted it.

But Shang Rong was like an iron gate, blocking almost all the tentacles of the pretenders.

Even Pavilion Tao sued Shang Rong more than once in front of Liu Che.

The sons and daughters of the Dou family and the Bo family even gave Shang Rong eye medicine in front of the Empress Dowager Dou all day long.

made the two old ladies in the East Palace think that this Shang Rong was a chaotic minister who didn't take them seriously at all.

As for those princes with two thousand stones, they were even more eager to peel off Shang Rong's skin and cramp to vent their anger.

Cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing parents!

In the past, Shang Rong had Liu Che's protection, and no one could move him.

But now, Shang Rong wants to be promoted?

These people must count the old and new hatreds together, and maybe they will dig a big hole for Shang Rong!

However, this kind of thing is not something that Liu Che needs to care about.

This is the responsibility of the mistake!

Chao is the prime minister!

What is Prime Minister?

The emperor's deputy, assisting the king, and the leader of the civil and military classes who govern the world.

It is the courtesy of hundreds of bureaucrats, the ministers avoid the way, and dominate the world!

This huge power was handed over to Chao Cuo, but it was not for Chao Cuo to go to his house.

Of course, the personnel issue of the appointment and dismissal of this business is a mistake to be solved.

In layman's terms, it means that the intention of the organization must be carried out, and the appointment of the merchant must be approved by the court.

As for Chao Cuo, how to do this?

What does that have to do with Liu Che?

You are the prime minister, and you have to take this responsibility.

Otherwise, do you want to be the prime minister?

Why don't you choose an eraser as a puppet!

Chao misheard, but he was sweating profusely.

Shang Rong has many enemies than him.

Almost the entire group of princes, old and new, was offended by him.

The general of the cavalry, Dongcheng Hou Yizong, was even slapped in the face by him in public.

In the court, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager also did not like this person.

Now, the emperor actually told him that Aiqing is the prime minister, this is the prime minister's business, I don't care!

Is there any reason for this?

However, Chao Cuo had to pause and bow: "No! The minister knows! ”

What's the solution?

The current system and political ecology of the Han family is that the Son of Heaven is supreme, the Son of Heaven is born sacred, and the Son of Heaven is always right.

The official saying is that the Son of Heaven is ordered by the heavens, and he is like the sun and the moon, and the yin and yang are moving.

The monarchy is greater than all other things and all the laws of nature and physics.

The will of the Son of Heaven is the will of Heaven and the Mandate of Heaven.

As the incoming prime minister, the only thing he can do, and the only right choice, is to do his best to implement the will of the Son of Heaven!

As for how to implement it?

Then it can only depend on his wrong wrist.

Liu Che smiled and said to Chao wrongly: "Don't think that I am difficult for a strong man...... Qu Reverse offered to Hou once said: The prime minister, the son of heaven is in charge of yin and yang, the four seasons are smooth, and the four things are cultivated, and the princes of the four Yi are appeased outside, and the people are attached to the inside, so that the doctors can let their duties be! ”

Chen Ping's definition of prime minister, in Liu Che's view, is outdated even now.

The prime minister, as the head of the cabinet and the chief of a hundred officials, is actually the prime minister of later generations.

Great responsibility, great power.

As a prime minister, the vision cannot be narrow, and there must be a sense of the overall situation.

Like Zhou Yafu, although his attitude and stance are close to Confucianism, he has never given Confucianism any preferential treatment because of Confucianism.

Where does the hundred schools of thought come from, even the miscellaneous families that he dislikes the most, can be treated more fairly.

Like this time, Chao Cuo was recommended as the successor, and if he wanted to change someone, I am afraid that he would not be recommended for political differences, and it was not Chao Cuo of one camp, but Zhou Yafu was recommended.

Because he knows that Chao Cuo is the best candidate.

This is the mind and courage of a statesman.

In contrast, Chao Cuo is far from being a qualified politician, and he has not yet put himself in the right position.

He's going to be the prime minister!

But the thought and vision are still in the position of the Legalists!

How can this work?

You're the prime minister, not the imperial historian.

Prime Minister, the most important quality is tolerance!

Otherwise, the various factions will be fighting each other.

Judging from the current situation, it is just a Confucianism and law dispute, and once the contradiction breaks out in an all-round way, then one must die!

Either Confucianism did Legalism, or Legalism killed Confucianism.

However, Liu Che feels that it is more likely that Confucianism and law will alternately come to power, and the two sides will cut each other.

Just like the struggle between the old and new parties in the Northern Song Dynasty, when the new party came to power, regardless of 3721, it would first kill the old and young of the old party, and when the old party came to power, it would not care about other things, and first kill the remnants of the new party.

For this reason, what Liaojin issue, what to recover Yanyun, what is a strong country and rich country, all of them can be put down first, and all of them can be used as bargaining chips, into transactions, and as a means of attacking opponents.

And, once caught in such a vortex, the situation is likely to be out of control.

As long as there is a faction of knives stained with the blood of the other party, it must be endless.

If that was the case, Liu Che would have to hack to death along with Confucianism.

Thinking of this, Liu Che looked at Chao Cuo very seriously, and solemnly warned him: "Qing must keep in mind what I said today, and engrave the words of Qu Rebellion on the desk of the Prime Minister's Mansion and write it in Qing's heart!" ”

This is also Liu Che's biggest worry and unease about Chao Cuo.

The current situation is that there is no room for any more to dismiss a hundred schools of thought and respect a certain technique.

Confucianism, Law, Huang Lao, Mo, and Miscellaneous have all grown into a force that is enough to influence the world.

Even the weakest of these factions, the Mohists, if they die, could cause irreversible and devastating blows to Chinese science and physics, chemistry and mechanics!

"No!" Chao Cuo hurriedly bowed, he still understands this cognition.

After all, he's not blind.

Not to mention, today's Confucian academies that are all over the world are already like barnacles, firmly entangled in the body of the empire.

If Confucianism really wants to start an all-out war, then if it starts, I am afraid that the world will be boiling and the world will be in chaos.

The bloodshed is not enough, but the darkness is certain.

"Qing has this cognition...... but Liu Che is still worried, for this reason, in the past few days, he has even studied the idea of transferring Yuan Ang back to Chang'an, and let Yuan Ang contain Chao Ao.

But on closer thought, Liu Che vetoed the idea.

As for Yuan An, he is a good person, and he is very comfortable to be friends with him.

But......

He's too affectionate.

Politics, on the other hand, does not need affection.

Governing the country, in particular, does not require affection.

An official who intercedes with his friends is a crime against the people.

Therefore, Yuan Ang should be the prince of Nanyue and be the emperor of Nanyue!

Maybe in the future, he can go to the Indochina Peninsula to open a sub-base for Liu Che!

Moreover, the transfer back of Yuan Ang is likely to send a wrong signal to others, that is, the emperor is on guard against the prime minister!

It's scary!

And it will definitely cause one terrible disaster after another!

Empire, now needs stability.

Steady digestion of the fruits of victory, steady adaptation to the new era, stable incubation of those that will hatch.

Any possible infighting and infighting must be nipped in the bud!

The next few years will be a critical moment for the Han Empire!

Whether you can get out of the monster house in Northeast Asia depends on the internal affairs and digestion ability in the past few years!
