Chapter 0393 - Green and Yellow Don't Pick Up~
"With Zhang Cang, Marquis of Beiping, as the imperial historian·······"
"What does the Queen Mother think?"
Tentatively proposing his own candidate, Liu Ying also lowered her head slightly and secretly calculated.
Zhang Cang, Marquis of Beiping, is a very special person among the founding fathers of Liu Han.
is different from Xiao He, Zhou Bo, Cao Shen and other Taizu Yuanzun Yuan, nor is it comparable to Wang Ling, Yongya and other 'Taizu ancestors', or generals like Chen Ping;
Zhang Cang is almost the only pure intellectual, or 'pure civil official', among the more than 100 founding fathers of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, no matter how you say it, you are still the founding father after all, especially Liu Han's founding father, and Zhang Cang still has the martial arts above the level line;
But compared with Zhang Cang's mediocre ranking of 'martial arts' among the founding fathers, and the 1,200 feudal feudal food estates, it is obvious that he is still an 'intellectual', which can better highlight Zhang Cang's difference.
Let's ask about the founding merits of the Han Dynasty, how many of them can be regarded as 'decent people'?
- Taizu Liu Bang himself needless to say, he has the position of 'Surabaya Pavilion Chief' on his head, but in fact, he is a ranger leader with an official body, a pure ruffian hooligan!
Liu Bang is still like this, and following Liu Bang to lay down the abundant Yuan of Liu Han's country, it is not much better.
Fan Hui, a butcher and a dog meat seller;
Zhou Bo, whose main job is 'weaving mats and selling shoes', is to play flute music at other people's funerals;
Xiahou Ying, a groom in the local government;
Even the two 'bosses' when Liu Bang was in the palace, Xiao He and Cao Shen, were only a little decent.
Xiao He is better, but he is the 'chief official' of the county government who is in charge of a department: the chief official Peng, a petty official with a rank of 200 stones;
Cao Shen is a small prison boy, and if it is ugly, he is the head of the cell, a small official of a hundred stones.
The core personnel of the 'Abundant Yuan Cong' are like this, and those who are a little closer to the periphery are even more unbearable.
Wang Ling and Yongya, two old rich men;
Zhou Zao and Zhou Chang's two families really got to know Liu Bang when Liu Bang was released from prison in Dangshan, and since then they have followed him; The former is the history of the escorted servitude, and the latter is the death history of the escorted servitude········
After a full count, there are 147 founding fathers of the Han Dynasty, and there are only a few people who can really be regarded as 'scholars' and 'cultural people'.
Xiao He, the marquis of Yuwen, is a Qin official and the prime minister of the founding of the Han Dynasty, which is counted as one;
Although Cao Shen came from a humble background, he was also a giant of the Huang Lao School in the world, and he could also be regarded as one;
Then there is the old Han noble: Zhang Liang, the marquis.
But in terms of academic status alone, or the gold content of their identity in terms of 'literature', these three people together may not be as good as Zhang Cang, who was the imperial history of the Qin court and studied under Xunzi Xunqing.
It is no exaggeration to say: Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Beiping, is likely to be the only one who can make all the scholars from hundreds of schools obey today!
In particular, the gold-lettered signboard of 'Xunzi Disciple' raised the Marquis of Beiping, who had 1,200 households in Zhangcang District, to a height that should not have been reached.
Therefore, after Wang Ling and Chen Ping, the position of Han Xiang, I am afraid that it will be Zhang Cang's turn.
In fact, if it weren't for Zhang Cang's inability to do martial arts in the process of Liu Han's founding of the country, especially if he couldn't compare with Cao Shen, Wang Ling and other old ministers, and Zhang Cang was not a rich Yuancong, the position of the Han prime minister would have fallen on Zhang Cang's head a long time ago.
Not to mention Xiao He, the Marquis of Yuwen, and Cao Shen, the Marquis of Pingyang, who is now seriously ill and bedridden, at least compared to Wang Ling and Chen Ping, who are about to serve as prime ministers, Zhang Cang's professional ability is obviously still much higher.
Even according to the unspoken political rule of 'non-internal history cannot be a doctor of imperial history' in the court today, Zhang Cang does not have any missing resume.
- Zhang Cang, Marquis of Beiping, has indeed never done internal history;
But he's done a plan!
He fought beside Xiao He, the Marquis of Yuwen, and then served as the minister of state of Huainan and Dai, coupled with the identity of the founding father, there is nothing wrong with being a doctor of imperial history directly.
And there is a precedent for this mode of operation;
In that year, when Taizu Liu Bang was dying, he directly returned to Beijing from the prime minister of Qi to serve as the imperial historian, and then quickly became the prime minister.
If you have to say that there is a problem with Zhang Cang as a doctor of imperial history, it may be that he is in his sixties and close to seventy, which may make Zhang Cang unable to survive Wang Ling and Chen Ping at all;
But this question is not a problem for Liu Ying.
Naturally, it is not that Liu Ying has any secret techniques that can make Zhang Cang live for a few more years;
- but Zhang Cang himself, who could have lived for many years!
Liu Ying still remembers her previous life, how shocked she was when she heard that a Han Dynasty founder named Zhang Cang actually lived to be 104 years old!
So in fact, Zhang Cang now looks like he is in his sixties, and he has no more than a few years to live, but in fact, Zhang Cang has at least nearly forty years of life!
And a life span of 40 years means at least 20 to 30 years of political life.
This is enough for Liu Ying.
According to Liu Ying's estimate, Wang Ling, who is over 70 years old, will live for less than ten years before he will follow Emperor Taizu Gao;
Although Chen Ping is younger, he is not as pampered as Wang Ling, who was born as a rich man, and he is not as strong as Wang Ling, who was born as a martial artist.
Liu Ying speculated: Chen Ping, who was born as a strategist, is only a single minister after Wang Ling, and his lifespan is only three or five years.
- Chen Ping, he's not too young~
After Wang Ling and Chen Ping passed away one after another, Zhang Cang, who served as the imperial historian, was only eighty years old at most;
For others, it may be too late to stay up to the position of prime minister at the age of eighty; But for Zhang Cang, it can be called 'in the prime of life'.
Regarding Liu Ying's candidate, Lu Pheasant obviously didn't have much opinion, and after only a little thought, he nodded slowly.
"The Marquis of Beiping is now the acting king's minister, if he is recalled to Beijing, the emperor should also be a good student to plan for the king's election."
Hearing this, Liu Ying only smiled and nodded, but the bitterness on her brow was even worse.
In that year, after the death of Emperor Taizu Gao, Liu Ying personally stepped forward to protect his younger brother Liu Ruyi, who was suspected of rebellion, and moved Liu Ruyi from the king of Zhao to the king of Huainan;
After that, Liu Ying ordered: Zhou Chang, the Marquis of Zhao Xiangfenyin, was the right minister of Huainan, Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Beiping, was the left minister of Huainan, Chen Ping, the Marquis of Qu Rebellion, was the prince of Huainan, and Lihou Lutai was the lieutenant of Huainan.
Three years ago, Zhou Chang died of illness in office, and Liu Ying ordered: Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Beiping, was moved to the right minister, and was in charge of the affairs of Huainan; Qu Reverse Hou Chen Ping is the left minister, and Wang Taifu, Fu teaches Liu Ruyi, the king of Huainan.
By last year, Fu Kuan, the Marquis of Yangling, also died of illness, and Liu Ying, who could not find a suitable candidate, could only cancel the left and right biphasic system of Huainan Kingdom, leaving Chen Ping as Huainan Prime Minister and Wang Taifu, and sent Zhang Cang to Jinyang to be the king of Liu Heng, the acting king.
And now, Liu Ying plans to summon Chen Ping back to Beijing, which is to vacate a Huainan minister;
recruited Zhang Cang to return to Beijing, and another acting king was to be vacated········
"Whew~"
"Where can I find so many 'prime ministers'········"
Shaking her head with a wry smile, Liu Ying lowered her head; Zhang Cang, the candidate for the imperial doctor, can be regarded as decided.
The right prime minister Wang Ling (positive), the left prime minister Chen Ping (deputy), and the imperial historian Zhang Cang (quasi) have all been decided, and in the end, only Zhang Cang's successor and the next Han minister are left: internal history.
And this position, Liu Ying racked her brains, and she didn't think of a suitable candidate.
In other words, Liu Ying came to Changle Palace today, and the main thing she wanted her mother Lu Pheasant to come up with was the candidate for internal history.
It is precisely at this point that Liu Ying's previous exclamation can be regarded as really to the point.
——At a time when the order of the founding fathers is withering and the second generation of meritorious princes is really a little unable to do anything, the Han family has a little shortage of official reserves, especially those of senior officials, that is, courtiers and ministers······
Among the founding fathers, almost all of those who have the ability to be prime ministers are about the same age as Xiao He and Cao Shen;
Now that Xiao He has been dead for many years, Cao Shen is also dying, and the rest of the people are also dying of old age and illness.
That is, Wang Ling's body is harder, and he has more thoughts, and Chen Ping is a little younger.
Coupled with Zhang Cang, an old monster who can live to be more than a hundred years old, the embarrassing scene of 'no one can do anything' immediately appeared in front of Liu Ying's eyes.
But after Zhang Cang, the founding fathers of the Han Dynasty saw a complete farewell to the historical stage.
- If the founding fathers can live again, who can live more than Zhang Cang's manrui?
And after the founding fathers completely bid farewell to the stage of history, the rising stars who can take over the girder from the hands of their ancestors can be counted on their fingers.
Among the second meritorious marquis, the only one who may be qualified to be the prime minister, Liji, is still the son of the Marquis of Quzhou;
In addition to the lone seedling of Liji, the other rising stars are likely to be studying hard in their hometowns.
Jia Yi, Jia Changsha, Chao Cuo, Yuan Ang and other young talents are only in their early tens;
If you want one of these three people to be a high-ranking official who can serve as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, even if everything goes smoothly, it will take at least 14 years or more.
——A hairy boy who is less than fifty years old, even if it is Jia Yi and Jia Changsha, it is impossible for him to sit in the high position of prime minister in the feudal era!
And right now, the only internal history that Liu Ying can think of is the choice of prime minister after Zhang Cang, that is, the rare second-generation father in Qing history: Li sent it.
But then again, in recent years, Liji's promotion has been a little too fast········
When his father, Hou Lishang of Qu Zhou, was still in the middle of the court, Hou Shizi Lizhi was only a palace captain of more than 2,000 stones;
But just a few years later, Liji went from being a palace captain of 2,000 stones to a guard captain of 2,000 stones, and directly skipped 2,000 stones and 2,000 stones, which can be said to be promoted to three levels at once!
Although this appointment was due to the retirement of his father Lishang, Liu Ying used it as a factor to compensate for the Qu Zhouhou family, but such a promotion speed and soaring span are really staggering.
Fortunately, Liji herself is also angry, in addition to the identity of the second generation of Hou, there is also a slash identity of the 'generation of fathers', and Wu Xun is very hard;
In addition, there are really no other suitable candidates, which makes the phenomenon of 'Hou Shizi as Jiuqing' not become a joke inside and outside the government and the opposition.
But this is already the limit of Hou Shizili's sending;
With Hou Shizi as Jiuqing, it is appalling enough·······
If there is another exciting incident of 'Hou Shizi is the internal history', or even 'Hou Shizi is ranked as the third duke', will there be a theory that 'the position of the minister is hereditary, and people from poor families cannot be touched', Liu Yingke really can't say.
With Liji as a candidate for prime minister, it is indeed possible;
However, if Liji wants to break the bottleneck of his career and complete the transformation from Jiuqing to the head of Jiuqing and the alternate prime minister - internal history, an indispensable factor is needed.
The identity of the Marquis.
To put it more bluntly, that is, if Lishang does not die for a day, Hou Shizi Lijian will not be able to rise for a day.
And the contemporary Quzhou Hou Lishang, like the old and strong Wang Ling, had a good family background and a rich life in his early years, and even raised thousands of soldiers and horses alone during the disputes at the end of the Qin Dynasty!
After Pei Gong fought Chen Liu, Li Shang took more than 4,000 soldiers and horses and took refuge under Pei Gong.
Now, although Lishang has retired, his body is still very tough;
In Liu Ying's opinion, the balance of life of Li Shang is not less than that of Wang Ling, and even less than that of Chen Ping.
This made Liu Ying a little difficult.
Right now, Lishang's body is hard and tight, and in the next internal history, Liji will definitely have no chance to get involved;
But Liu Ying was afraid that Wang Ling and Chen Ping had left one after another, Zhang Cang would be the prime minister, and Lishang would still be alive to breathe, so that Liji would still have no chance in the position of 'the next prime minister' in the internal history.
And that's just a concern for the future;
At present, even in the internal history of Wang Ling's term of office after his promotion, Liu Ying is really a little unnotable·······
"Huaiyang County Shoushen Tujia, although he came from a humble background, he is also Emperor Wu Cong Taizu Gao;"
"That is, if you are a martial servant, you will have a martial artist; He has been guarding the county for many years, which can also prove his ability to govern the people? ”
After thinking about it, Lu Pheasant's peaceful and tactful words came into his ears, causing Liu Ying to raise his head slightly.
Seeing Lu Pheasant's face clearly, there was also a slight hesitation, and Liu Ying couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Shentu Jia ·······"
"I'm afraid it's a little hard to convince the public, right?"
Full of hesitation, Liu Ying shook her head without waiting for Lu Pheasant to answer.
Speaking of Shen Tujia, he also has some relationship with Liu Ying.
——Back then, Huainan Wang Yingbu raised troops to rebel, and Taizu Liu Bang was seriously ill and dying, Liu Ying, who was the crown prince at the time, went out to quell the rebellion, and had a certain understanding with this Huainan county guard.
I have to say that Shen Tujia is very angry with Liu Ying;
Duty, introverted, upright, straightforward, not so many fancy intestines at all.
What Liu Ying admires the most is that Shen Tujia, the 'founding father', is different from other founding fathers.
- Shen Tujia, the 'founding father', started from the position of the big head soldier and cut it out with one knife and one shot in that era of strife!
can go from a big-headed soldier to a captain, and then to the defense of any county after the founding of the country, even if it is placed in later generations, it can definitely be regarded as an inspirational example of grassroots counterattack.
But that's exactly where the problem lies.
——A pure martial artist who was born as a big-headed soldier and did not have the title of Marquis of Guannai, if he serves as the internal history of the prime minister·······
Can these founding fathers of the DPRK and China, who are still panting, agree?
Even if no one objects, can such a person take on the heavy responsibility of internal history at the moment, and even shoulder the burden of 'Han Xiang' in the foreseeable future·······
