Chapter 69: The era of martyrdom has passed

Jimo.

Lu Chan looked at the edict that had reached the Hou Kingdom in a daze, this edict actually had no effect on the Jimo Lu clan.

But he has a chivalrous demeanor on his body, and he is more righteous.

He organized the book on the bus, and he was one of the leaders of the Battle of Jingjing.

Outcome......

The Kwantung Liehou is indeed extremely rich now.

A battle of martyrdom has been stable for three generations, and probably most people are very satisfied, after all, the desperate life on the battlefield is to continue the family's wealth.

But Lu Chan was a little sad, even more sad than when he left Chang'an and returned to Jimo to plant flowers, and Yuan Congzhuxun was completely excluded from the core of court power.

What's even more terrifying is that the emperor gave too good treatment to the heroes of Jingnan, and the hereditary recklessness greatly weakened the mobility, and the sword that had been hanging over the heads of the princes was taken away.

Losing the quest for power, losing the motivation to maintain wealth, the outcome is obvious, and human inertia begins to rise in it.

Lu Chan is Liu Xun's uncle, so he is quite restrained in the face of Liu Xun's choice, but others are not so easy to speak.

There were even lieges who were directly dissatisfied: "What does the emperor mean by this, is he doubting the old man's loyalty?" It's better to cut out the old man's heart directly and see if it's a blue blood pill heart! ”

Some lieges said angrily: "It is difficult to fight for your life to serve Tianjing, but in the end, Sheji is in the hands of the relatives and scholars, and in the hands of these people who have not contributed, is it fair?" ”

The so-called thousands of people have thousands of faces.

Some people are angry, and some people appease: "Jing Nan is for the survival of the Han Dynasty."

Now that the Han Society is thriving, and we have gained several generations of wealth, isn't this the best ending? ”

This kind of thinking, with a little self-paralysis, gradually spread to the whole group.

Oh, yes.

Isn't this the original intention of Jingnan?

When did you forget about these things?

It started from the first time I felt a little unfair, from the first time I felt suspicious, but the emperor didn't do anything after all.

Yuan Cong Zhuxun has disappeared dozens of families in the past hundred years, and if those disappeared families are allowed to evaluate, they will definitely give the emperor the greatest gratitude.

Because of the hereditary oath, for the Han people who value the reputation and incense of their ancestors, what commitment is more important than the inheritance of the temple?

"So be it."

"It's nothing if you don't go to Guanzhong to do those three princes and nine qing."

"We are people from the Kanto, and we are in the land of the Kanto, guarding the imperial court."

"Hold it for a hundred, five hundred, eight hundred years, until the end of the Mandate of Heaven."

These voices resounded everywhere, and finally converged on Chang'an.

Time always passes in a hurry.

Liu Xun was busy dealing with the government affairs of various countries, and after a short period of three years without natural disasters, whether it was Guanzhong or Kanto, various natural disasters began again.

Fortunately, the imperial court is no longer in a state of exhaustion at the end of the Jingjing, and under the governance of Liu Xunjunchen, the national strength of the Han Dynasty is recovering rapidly.

Classical countries are like this, they don't need to spend tens or hundreds of years to make up for the technological generation gap.

In an era when people can decide everything, as long as the monarch is capable, the internal friction of the dynasty is not serious, and the population is not outrageous, it only takes ten years for a country to leap from decline to become an unprecedentedly powerful empire.

Liu Xiang not only became a court lieutenant, Liu Xun wanted to govern the country with criminal law, valued him very much, and promoted him to the imperial historian.

One of the Three Princes, a very good minister!

He was proficient in the way of criminal law, handled things fairly, and had a high reputation among the people, and he seriously used criminal law to regulate the behavior of officials, rectify the rule of officials, and investigate and correct a large number of lawless officials.

But he's not a cool official.

Even the strictest of scholars could not be called a cool official, and most of his sentences were very moral, and served to regulate the social atmosphere.

He enforces the law strictly, but not fiercely.

In the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty, Liu wrote to the emperor: "Kwantung experienced three natural disasters in three years, and the poor people could not pay their taxes on time.

Your Majesty, your grace is like the sun in the sky, and you have decreed that the eighteen counties are exempted from taxes, but the treacherous officials are still deceiving the people.

They were still forced to pay taxes, and the people had to sell their last food rations, completely losing the land on which they depended.

Haoqiang became big like this, stepping on the flesh and blood of the people, eroding the foundation and heritage of the Han Dynasty.

If it is not controlled, the demise of the Han Dynasty may be in the near future. ”

Liu Xun was once imprisoned in Jiaodong Kingdom, abolished as a concubine, and every day he woke up worried that he would be killed by Liu Dan, he was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of the world, and knew how terrible those treacherous officials were to the people.

He immediately ordered Liu Xiang to do as much as he wanted, "The people killed by Qing are all the people I killed, don't worry, but if you do great things, I will be responsible." ”

You just have to do it, and all the responsibility is borne by me, the emperor.

Liu Xiang was grateful, and he fought more and more vigorously against the kind of heroes who brought disaster to the country and the people, especially those who committed the crime of murder, and they were all spared, and they all had to go to Huangquan.

These events earned him great prestige, and he was assassinated.

Then the Dare Warrior appeared beside him, and a person walked out of the Qin Heavenly Prison.

Luo Qing.

Whether it is the emperor, the princes or the powerful people, they all know Luo's clear attitude, and it is incumbent on Luo's to crack down on the lawless Haoqiang.

This kind of obvious and extreme political statement shocked countless people, because the Luo clan is the largest powerful family in the world, and you cut yourself yourself?

Although the wealthy families in the world knew that the Luo clan looked down on their practice of oppressing the small people, and would not go along with them, they used to think that the Luo clan would hang high.

It's as if you didn't see it, after all, this is Liu's world, and it's no longer your Bang Zhou surnamed Ji, even if the destiny falls, what does this matter?

Besides, the Liu royal family itself is doing this, the emperor is the most ruthless one, and it is also a legal scrape, what do you care about us?

"I've been acting all my life, do I still need to report to you worms?"

A voice full of endless sharpness spread from Zhaocheng Luo Sheng's mouth to all directions, and all of a sudden everything was silent, leaving only countless undercurrents surging under the calm water.

But Luo's is not afraid, this is not a troubled time!

What can these heroes do?

The imperial court can suppress these people with one hand, not to mention adding Luo's, they only have to be slaughtered.

In this war in which the imperial court suppressed Guanzhong and the powerful in Kanto, it was the Kwantung Liehou who benefited the most.

Although limited to strict regulations, the land of the Hou State cannot be extended outward by an inch, but the imperial court did not stipulate that it is not possible after the division of the family, after all, the more children are born, the less wealth can be given.

Except for the Wanhu Marquis State in the past, the Liehou State is not large, and there is no need to divide it.

Therefore, it is too normal for the children of nobles, especially concubines, to make a living for themselves.

The imperial court also did not stipulate that shops and real estate could not be bought, so a peculiar scene was created, with a butcher's knife wielding in front of the court and a small sickle wielding a liege behind the prince.

The court preached its will, the princes waved their money, the knives of the court were stained with blood, and the princes ate a lot of money.

Highlight a tacit understanding, there is no bone residue left to eat Haoqiang, and the firepower is basically borne by the court officials.

This situation was reported to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the sages once said that people can only survive in times of sorrow, and once they are comfortable, they will perish, and the princes do not know moderation, which is probably a sign of decline." ”

Liu Xun was silent for a long time, and finally only said, "Where in this world is there a long-lasting prosperity?"

Where in this world is there anyone who has plunged himself into sorrow in order to endure forever?

Let them go, as long as the land allocated to the small people is not touched, let them take the shops and properties, which I should give. ”

The emperor's statement made the princes even more unscrupulous.

In this era, land is undoubtedly the most productive treasure, and owning land is almost everything, but it is too dangerous for the princes.

Shops and real estate do not have such concerns, even if they do not keep the rent, they still have a lot of money in their pockets when they are sold.

The far-sighted and far-sighted people saw the crisis under this prosperous scene, and lamented: "We are military meritorious princes, who take fame from the horse, make meritorious achievements, and pass on the succession of future generations."

To be rewarded by the emperor for the prosperity of our family, to preserve our reputation, to be kind to the people of the land, and to make the people of the world worship our deeds and our virtues.

This is the foundation of our ability to launch the Jingjing.

Now they have lost these foundations for the sake of some petty profits and some floating wealth that will be lost at any time.

Isn't this the stupidest and most short-sighted act? ”

The sages have already exhausted the truth, but how many people can see a hundred years from now?

Anyone who can see through ten years is enough to be noble!

"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit."

It's not entirely true, but it's representative of the vast majority of people.

No one expected that the opposition to the opening order would end like this, and no one expected that the implementation of the ban would be so dramatic.

The powerful power of the Kanto region was hit hard, and the princes were busy digesting the gains.

The heroes of the martyrdom began to die.

————

I tried to recite the "Historical Records" and "Han Book", and every sigh of prosperity and decline, blessing and blessing are all determined?

The profit and loss of the month, which lasted for thirty years, the positive deviation of the day, and the four times changed.

Reciting it again, this Han Xuan's disaster is too longitudinal, rewarding, and unabstaining from drowning heroes, and they love to be close, so they are arrogant.

Taishi Gong said: "I didn't want to consolidate its roots. ”

However, it is crooked at all, and what are the branches?

"Born in sorrow, die in peace."

That's right!

Husband's calamities often accumulate in the slightest, and wisdom and courage are more trapped in drowning, sorrow and labor can rejuvenate the country, Yiyu can die, and the heroes of the Han Dynasty rise and fall from this can be seen. - "Historical Records: Han Ji"

The Ming monarchs in history were mean and unkind, and they didn't want to write Liu Yi like that, so they still had to create an original emperor and write how they wanted.
