Chapter 304: Abolish Shi Limu

"Abolish Shi Limu? So fast? ”

When the news reached Lingling County, Qin Yu was stunned.

If he's not mistaken.

It was 188 years since Shi Limu was abolished.

It's only 187 years now, although it's not far from 188, but suddenly making such a sudden appearance still makes Qin Yu slightly surprised.

I have to say.

Liu Yan, this guy is really bad.

As a Taichang, he is a bragging with Liu Hong.

Your Majesty, look, now that there is chaos and rebellion in various places, is this the sin of our old Liu family?

That's obviously impossible.

The reason why these things appear has little to do with our old Liu family, and the responsibility is basically for those reckless families.

Now that the family is powerful, it is not easy for us to engage them.

And in many things, we have to rely on them to help.

It is even more impossible to sever this relationship just like that.

But Your Majesty, you have to think about it.

Every time you go out to quell the rebellion, in the end, all you spend is the money and food that Your Majesty has worked so hard to accumulate.

Our old Liu family wiped their buttocks, but they made a lot of money one by one, aren't we losing money?

As soon as Liu Hong heard this, he immediately slapped his thigh and agreed.

Liu Yan is right.

In recent years, there have been quite a few cases of counterinsurgency and banditry.

All the money for the whole day was taken out of his West Garden.

Originally, I wanted to build a few more yards, but now I have no whereabouts.

When I thought of all these disasters caused by the big families who were fooling around with me outside, I had to wipe their butts myself.

Liu Hong felt aggrieved in his heart.

So Liu Yan struck while the iron was hot and said his thoughts.

He said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, this counterinsurgency is not very difficult. ”

"How capable are those ordinary people of great power to cause much turmoil?"

"In fact, the most fundamental reason is that the price we spent when we put down the rebellion was too great."

"Not to mention the fact that you have to transfer troops from Sanfu every time, there is no benefit after the fight."

"How much food do you have to consume on the way back and forth?"

"Rather than this, it is better to solve the problem directly from the root, and now that Taishou, the assassin Shi does not have enough power in his hands when dealing with these rebellions."

"Let them deal with those local powerful families, it is simply impossible."

"In that case, we might as well re-establish the official position of the state governor and let them have greater rights than the assassin and the county guard."

"It's just that these candidates for state pastors must choose clan relatives or trusted ministers, only these people will really think about Your Majesty, and will really help to solve those rebellions, and even solve those families."

While Liu Hong was a little cautious in his heart, he was actually a little worried.

However, this position of the state pastor has not been unheard of before.

Now according to Liu Yan's statement.

The right to give away is indeed a bit too big.

But it's just like Liu Yan said.

If there is no one who can control all political and military affairs at the local level, one person can develop all official positions independently.

It is impossible to suppress those families.

There will always be people who will stand up and go against you.

Liu Hong has long hated this kind of thing.

So after thinking about it for a long time.

Liu Hong finally agreed.

The main thing is that there is really no way.

However, it was impossible for him to directly give away all the positions of the state pastor from the beginning.

Moreover, the positions given to the state ministers are also those places where rebellions often occur and the central court is beyond the reach of the whip.

When Liu Yan heard that Liu Hong seemed to be loose, he was secretly overjoyed in his heart.

He didn't say anything more about it.

He retired directly.

In any case, he also had to maintain some due restraint on the surface.

And he's too often.

It is necessary to talk about the ranking of relatives among the relatives of the Han family.

There is no doubt that he and Liu Yan are at the forefront.

If Liu Hong really wants to send someone to govern the place.

Then he Liu Yan must be on the list.

Liu Yan is still very sure of this.

At this time, he did not show any thoughts about the position of the state pastor, but in the heart of An Liu Hong.

In fact.

Since that day.

Liu Yan has already begun to move himself behind his back.

Liu Yan is a smart person, and he is a smart person with great ambitions.

From the time Liu Hong inherited the throne, Liu Yan had no good impression of Liu Hong.

From that time on.

A thought often came to his mind.

Why can Liu Hong sit on this throne, but he Liu Yan can't do it?

It turns out.

Liu Hong's ability is really much worse than Liu Yan.

At least, in terms of self-control over beauty, Liu Hong is really not very good.

Liu Hong's personality is really a bit outrageous.

He is purely a person who likes and dislikes.

But it's too clear.

When you trust someone, you want to give you all the trust.

When you don't trust someone, no matter how you look at him, you will think that he is a thief.

This can also be seen in the decisions he made before.

He favored eunuchs, so he was so outrageous that he could say that the regular attendants were his parents.

And he didn't trust the scholars themselves, and under the instigation of these eunuchs, the two party disasters directly killed the scholars.

And when he killed the scholars at that time, if anyone dared to speak for these scholars, the final result would be death.

If it weren't for the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it would have been too violent.

Liu Hong's own distrust of the scholars made him feel that these people were very likely to be forced to join the camp of the Yellow Turban thieves and oppose him.

He really didn't have much confidence to win the Yellow Turban plus the power of the scholars.

As a last resort, he ordered the dismissal of the party.

If it weren't for that, he felt like he could keep the party going until he died.

But it's precisely because of his temperament.

It was only then that Qin Yu could live so comfortably under his hands.

Not to mention Qin Yu, even Zhang Zhao and others under his command had to sigh that Liu Hong really trusted Qin Yu too much.

Although Qin Yu is now only a Lingling County Guard.

But here's the problem.

The rights that Qin Yu, the county guard, has, are really extraordinary.

Other people's county guards can only control the political affairs of a county.

If you want to move the military power here, it is simply impossible.

Military power is in the hands of the captains.

And the governor was also an official directly appointed by the imperial court, directly responsible to Liu Hong.

Not to mention this level of official position.

Even if it's those county orders, county lieutenants.

These were all direct appointments from the central court.

It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary county guard to have the ability to make such an appointment.

And put it on Qin Yu.

It was naturally impossible for Qin Yu to bypass this ring.

But he has the grace of Liu Hong alone.

The current commander of Lingling County is Lu Bu next to Qin Yu.

Those county orders and county lieutenants were all under Qin Yu.

And their official position is nominally directly assigned by the imperial court.

In fact, this was all privately instructed by Liu Hong to Qin Yu, as long as Qin Yu played a letter on the table, the next appointment would be directly approved.

This kind of treatment is really not a state pastor, but a state pastor.

It is precisely because Qin Yu has this power.

He was able to complete the complete transformation of the entire Lingling County in the shortest possible time.

Although Qin Yuming knew that Liu Hong was definitely not a master.

is definitely not an emperor worthy of his assistance.

But if he had the ability, Qin Yu really didn't mind helping him.

It's just that Liu Hong hasn't looked for Qin Yu much now.

Qin Yu was also happy to be idle.

It's just to fill him with divine water.

Anyway, it seems that Liu Hong cares more about this kind of thing.

Qin Yu also fulfilled his wish.

Let's go back to the matter of the state pastor.

Liu Hong made this suggestion to him that day.

He also felt a headache.

Liu Hong is not stupid.

Never eaten pork, he hasn't seen a pig run?

In the past, there was also an official position of state pastor.

But no one has ever elevated the power of a state pastor to such an extent before.

Military, financial, personnel appointments and dismissals, all power is concentrated in the body of one person after that.

Doesn't this directly become a soil emperor who is completely out of the control of the central government?

Liu Hong compares his heart to his heart.

If it is oneself.

There is such a chance to become an earth emperor.

Can he not be tempted?

That is obviously not possible.

How cool the emperor was, he could already feel it now.

People who have never been emperors certainly have no way to imagine his happiness.

But he thought about it again.

If you really encounter this kind of thing, in the end, will it really develop into a path of rebellion?

Not necessarily.

Because Liu Hong believes that if he is the state pastor.

He must have been deeply grateful to the emperor who had given him such a high level of trust.

Moreover, he appointed the governor only so that they could suppress the bandits and put down the rebellion.

This kind of thing can only come in a year or two.

It can be solved in three or five years.

When the time comes, will they dare to be disobedient with their own edicts?

If he is really disobedient, there are so many people in the world, and one person can scold him to death with a mouthful of spit.

Who is the orthodoxy in this world?

Those scholars are no matter how hateful they are.

There was at least one thing they did that was very much in line with Liu Hong's heart.

That is, their maintenance of imperial power and orthodoxy is really reassuring.

When the time comes, even if there is a state pastor who wants to rebel.

That's just fighting a whole big man with the power of a single state.

Why did he dare?

Why dare you be so brave?

After careful consideration.

The vigilance in Liu Hong's heart became weaker and weaker.

"I must plan well for this state pastor appointment."

"This world is full of rebellions caused by those damned families for me, if there are too many rebellions, and when they reach the ears of my husband, I am afraid that he will also have some wavering about my abilities that he would not have had."

"I am destined to be Mingjun! Mr. has already reorganized Lingling County quite in a prosperous way, and I can't be left behind! ”

That's it.

Liu Hong carefully selected the candidate for the state pastor in his heart.

At this time, Liu Yan's mind had already flown to which state he should become.

If you take his own original idea.

If he can become the pastor of Jingzhou.

That should be the option that will do him the most good.

Jingzhou is indeed not very peaceful.

There were quite a few rebellions.

Didn't the Nanyang Taishou Qin Jie, who had been appointed to succeed Qin Yu before, be hacked to death by those soldiers who rebelled in Jiangxia County?

In addition, the families in this Jingxiang land have always been very wild.

The thieves are quite powerful.

There are also mountain thieves who are extremely difficult to exterminate, and they are causing chaos everywhere.

For the imperial court, it is really not a good place.

But no matter how you say it, Jingzhou is also a remarkably rich place.

Nanyang County, the largest county in the world.

South County, which has an extremely prosperous economy.

In addition, Jiangxia County next to it has great development potential.

Don't say anything else, just these three places are enough for Liu Yan to look forward to for a long time.

If you can consolidate and develop this place in your own hands.

In the future, it may not be impossible for his vein to have some heritage beyond ordinary people.

Be a smart person.

Liu Yan has long seen the fact that the world will inevitably be in chaos in the future.

All of this is already hinting at the possibility of a great chaos coming.

Maybe it's time to stand up again.

But no matter how chaotic the world becomes.

In the end, it is necessary to let the people of the old Liu family stand up and close the endgame.

Just like it did two hundred years ago.

This is the general trend, the general trend that cannot be changed.

It is also a general trend that has long been recognized in the hearts of everyone in the world.

Merely.

This old Liu family's bloodline is too much.

Don't say anything else.

Take that Liu Bei as an example.

He is also a member of the old Liu family.

Who knew about him before?

But since dealing with Qin Yu.

Wasn't it immediately remembered by Liu Hong, and was seen by those powerful families?

If one day in the future, the world really needs someone to save it, and someone really needs to take Liu Hong's place.

Is Liu Bei okay?

Apparently yes.

As long as he has enough ability, as long as there are enough people behind him who are willing to support him, that's enough.

Compared with Liu Bei.

What advantages does he have over Liu Yan?

Everyone is the descendant of the old Liu family, and there is actually no fundamental difference between the two of them in terms of pulling the banner of orthodoxy.

And on the contrary, it is a guy like Liu Bei who has a low background, has no power behind him, and seems to have average ability, but it is better to be supported.

Support such a puppet emperor to ascend to the throne, and then assist the government as a general.

This is the foundation of our Han Dynasty.

Liu Yan is naturally very aware of this.

Then what he has to plan now is enough strength.

He wants to win enough strength for his descendants to fight for the throne that may exist in the future.

Of course, it is also to satisfy his selfishness of trying to be a soil emperor today.

Jingzhou Mu seems to be a very good choice.

But.

It's just like Liu Yan thought of Liu Bei.

When he thought of Jingzhou, naturally there was a person who appeared directly in his mind.

Qin Yu!

He made his fortune in Jingzhou.

And now I am still in Lingling County in Jingzhou.

Liu Yan is very clear.

If you want to be a real earth emperor.

Then he must have the ability to control these counties under his control.

"Qin Yu, this person is a bit tricky......"

Liu Yan pressed his fingers rhythmically on the table, and he muttered to himself.

After finishing speaking, even though there was no one around, Liu Yan felt that his old face was a little hot.

Where is Qin Yu a little tricky?

It would be nice if it was just a little tricky.

If you want to find someone in the Han court now, Liu Yan definitely doesn't want to face it.

Then Qin Yu is definitely in the top three!

Although Liu Yan has not had any dealings with Qin Yu.

But Qin Yu's strength is only a lot more than others.

Because he is ambitious, he will naturally gather relevant information.

Qin Yu's strength is definitely not something that ordinary people can imagine.

Liu Yan knows very well.

If his true thoughts of becoming a state pastor were exposed in front of Qin Yu.

The results are going to be very complicated.

He was completely unsure of what Qin Yu was thinking now.

He didn't believe that Qin Yu would be so loyal to a waste like Liu Hong.

But he didn't dare to bet.

Once his desire to be self-reliant was discovered by Liu Hong.

Liu Hongruo wrote an edict and asked Qin Yu to raise troops to crusade against him.

How will he cope?

Qin Yu used to be just a time when he was just a county commander of Jianyang County.

He's already done that.

And now he has long since become the commander of Lingling County.

What's even more speechless is.

Liu Hong, the bastard, didn't know what to think.

Unexpectedly, before the establishment of the state pastor, he had already given Qin Yu the reality similar to the state pastor.

His current development in Lingling County is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The morale of Sun Jian, the guard of Changsha County, who was beaten in the First World War, is still vivid.

Even if he really became a state pastor, so what?

Don't forget that Sun Jian was beaten like this by a Xiangxiang County.

The real power in Lingling County hasn't been used yet!

If he becomes the pastor of Jingzhou.

Indeed, being able to become Qin Yu's direct boss will also have great rights over personnel appointments and jurisdiction over Lingling County under his control.

In words, that's what it says.

Actually, if you do it.

That depends on whether Qin Yu gives him this face.

If Qin Yu insisted on refusing, what else could he force Qin Yu to do?

With Qin Yu's relationship in front of Liu Hong, in the end, I am afraid that he is the state pastor who will really suffer.

Won't he just become a joke then?

If there is someone like Qin Yu under his command.

To him, it was like a fish in his throat.

It's more like a time bomb was planted.

I am afraid that I can't sleep well day and night.

So.

What's the use of Jingzhou?

It's better to look somewhere else.

Liu Yan quickly removed Jingzhou from his target.

Xuan immediately set his eyes on the boundary of Yizhou and Youzhou, and thought about it carefully.

Liu Yan finally chose Yizhou.

Liu Yu was sent to Youzhou to quell the rebellion.

Early 188.

Runan Gepi Yellow Turban Army made a comeback.

The Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places also revolted and attacked the counties.

For a while, the world was still full of smoke.

At this time, Liu Hong finally chose to stand up and rectify the world.

August.

Liu Hong placed the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden and regained control of the army.

This was his attempt to weaken the increasingly powerful Ho clan.

Among the eight lieutenants, Jian Shuo is the leader, and the fact represents Liu Hong himself.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao each have official positions, needless to say.

He Jin was divided into military powers, and he was angry, but he couldn't talk about it.

And at this time, he still has to be restrained by the little yellow door, which makes him extremely unhappy.

October.

Liu Hong proclaimed himself the supreme general, and Yu Ping was optimistic about the military parade.

Seeing that the Xiyuan Army he placed was already quite powerful, Liu Hong was overjoyed.

He thought that he would be prosperous, but after the parade, he went back to enjoy himself satisfied.

As for the division of He Jin's military power, but the problem of insufficient soldiers in the Xiyuan Army itself, he didn't think much about it.

It's still a long time anyway.

There's no need to worry about that for now.

And at this time.

In Lingling County, there have been new changes.
