Chapter 105: The Prince, the Mighty and the Emperor
Countless princes walked into Chang'an City, especially the princes and princes from the Kanto region, which attracted a lot of attention from the people of Chang'an.
The kings and princes of the Han Dynasty are now in a more and more different position in the Han Dynasty.
No matter which class it is, in the end, it all comes down to the competition of talents, and the rise of bachelors is to gather the strength of the world's heroes.
This led to the emergence of talents in the county and the country, which profoundly impacted the position of the kings and princes.
The kings and princes have kingdoms and marquis to inherit, which is the remnant of feudalism in the previous era, which is an advantage and a shackle.
Because during the Bang Zhou period, it was not uncommon for vassal states to sit on the throne and finally annex the suzerain, so the imperial court kept a close eye on these semi-independent princely states.
But in this era of great land annexation, the shackles imposed on them by the royal family were too heavy.
The history of the assassination, the county guard, the minister of state, and the embroidered clothes are all staring at whether these princes are opening up outward, and once they have them, they will report it, and they will make a great achievement.
On the contrary, the powerful in the county can annex the land without scruples, although the nature of the land is different, the prince's land is "own", and the land of the strong is "bought", but who cares when it is really used?
Many princes came to Chang'an to complain.
"Your Majesty, the private army in the vassal country is not as much as Haoqiang's family, the land of Haoqiang in the county is several times better than that in the vassal country, and Haoqiang also has a fortress on the land, as if it is a country within a country.
The minister was a prince canonized by the imperial court.
The ancestors of the minister followed Emperor Gao to create the country, and with Emperor Xiaowu to go to the Xiongnu to eliminate the riots, Kuang Zheng Sheji.
As a result, he was bullied by the local tyrants in collusion with the county guards, and the ministers were really ashamed, and it was really difficult to face the ancestors and ancestors.
Even when I dream back at midnight, I always want to cut myself to thank the world.
Hate! ”
Looking at the princes who were kneeling in the hall and crying constantly, Liu She and Huo Guang were a little dumbfounded, the princes of the country would not be so miserable!
Of course, it will not be so miserable, and the value of the existence of the guards is to calm the turmoil and prevent the spread of the peasant uprising that arose throughout the country at the end of the Qin Dynasty.
Now it has only been 30 years since Jingnan, and the second generation of Jingnan princes has not yet died, so how can the combat effectiveness be corrupted so quickly.
But only crying children can eat sugar, and if they don't say that they are miserable, how can they ask for benefits from the court?
Besides, what he said is not wrong, there is indeed this trend now, using the future Haoqiang to kill the current Haoqiang, this is called prevention before it happens, there is nothing wrong, right?
After recovering from their stunnedness, Huo Guang and Liu She's faces immediately sank, who was kneeling in front of them?
He is a descendant of the founding ministers of the Han Dynasty, a descendant of the heroes of Jingnan, and those who can still retain the title of marquis in the 150 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China have made great contributions to the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Gao and Emperor Xiaoxuan both made an oath, one said "the country is forever", and the other said "reckless hereditary", even if Emperor Gao's oath is not taken seriously, then Emperor Xiaoxuan is pro-Laozi and must fulfill the oath!
In other words, in the Han Dynasty, a strong man and a liehou faced each other, and the identities carried by both sides were doomed.
Thinking of this, Liu She said sharply: "Don't worry, I will re-assign the embroidered clothes from the imperial court to lead the palace guards to investigate, there are many lawlessness in Haoqiang, but I didn't expect to bully the liehou!"
What a tiger, leopard and jackal this is, even more ferocious than the worst beast, such a family is entrenched in the county, can the people in the county still have a peaceful life?
I'm angry!
What does the county keeper do for food?
Why is there such a thing but it is not reported?
Is it colluding with the Haoqiang family? ”
Liu She is really a qualified superior, and after a few words, he began to expand his thinking, from the contradiction between the Haoqiang family and the liehou family, to whether the officials in the county are illegal or not.
The liehou was overjoyed when he heard this, and he couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, knowing that his opponent was doomed.
Dare to go against the Liehou family?
I really don't know how many pounds and taels I have after suddenly becoming rich!
Even if the liehou family is in ruins, we have political privileges, the quota of recommending officials, the right to enter the palace on time, and the merits of one hundred and fifty years of struggle from generation to generation.
As long as the imperial power is at its peak, it is a matter of throwing a splash and rolling around, what do you do with the powerful in a county to fight with our liehou family?
Are we really the same place as you?
If it was a wealthy family in Chang'an, I would be a little scared.
Thinking of these princes, he hurriedly thanked him, and then left the palace with brisk steps.
Looking at the figure walking out of the hall, and then recalling the kings and princes he had received over the past few days, Liu She asked with some doubts: "General, is Haoqiang really strong enough to be so strong now?"
The kings and princes who entered the palace were all denouncing Haoqiang.
Forget about others, why are the Lanling Xiao family, the Zhang family, the Lu family, and the Han family also condemning it?
No one is so strong that he can't open his eyes to provoke these great princes, right?
Even I have to respect these families, these are all families who are in the same dynasty. ”
The Han Dynasty's dynasty and the family of the same dynasty, not that they will not get rid of the country, but that they will get rid of the country, once there is any happy event, they will look for descendants to return to the country, which is called the same rest of the country.
There are few companies that can have this kind of treatment, and they are the ones who have made the most contributions to the founding of the Han Dynasty.
Liu She was still very smart, and then he heard Huo Guang say quietly: "Whether it's true or not, what's it?"
The Han Dynasty rules the world and has never been Haoqiang, but Haoqiang has been growing up over the years, if there is really no way, then he can only let it go.
But since there are guards and princes who are willing to assist the imperial court, they can only sacrifice Haoqiang. ”
When Liu She heard this, he realized that this was a matter of position, not a matter of right or wrong!
……
What is the grand scene of the dynasty?
What is the power of the Son of Heaven?
What is Imperial Prestige?
In the Changle Palace, looking at the tribute list piled up as high as a mountain, Huo Guang was quite excited, and said to Liu She highly: "Your Majesty."
When did Yin Shang decline?
It started from the Zhou people at the foot of Qishan Mountain who lost their king and prince in Chaoge, and it started from the Zhou people uniting the princes to no longer respect Yin Shang.
When did Bang Zhou decline?
It started from the reluctance of the princes to meet the Son of Heaven, and it began with the princes gradually beginning to ignore the role of the Son of Heaven.
When Emperor Xiaoxuan had just ascended the throne, he didn't even dare to let the princes come to worship.
And now?
Your Majesty, you have made a decree when the sun rises, and the princes are to complete it before the sun sets.
The princes want to see His Majesty like students who want to listen to the admonition of their teacher.
The kings wanted to continue their wealth, and they trembled in the face of His Majesty.
Even if it is the king of Dawandong and Lingnan, who are five thousand miles away, they will also come to Chang'an and respectfully offer their loyalty to you.
The princes and magnates who came to Chang'an blocked the road to and from the city gate, and countless treasures were piled up in the treasury and could not be placed.
All families are willing to offer their daughters in order to achieve the goal of being lucky enough to enter the heavenly family.
This is what Emperor Chen and Emperor Xiaoxuan have worked tirelessly for 30 years.
Today, I finally saw this scene. ”
Huo Guang's words were impassioned, and Liu She's heart swayed when he heard it, what he inherited would be a Zhongxing situation second only to Emperor Wen, can he keep the foundation of his ancestors?
He stopped his excitement slightly, and said to himself: "This is all the credit of Emperor Xiaoxuan and Qing, I am just sitting back and enjoying it, I am really a little ashamed." ”
"Your Majesty, don't worry, in the past, Emperor Xiaowen was heroic, and there was also the regent of King Luowen, and after King Luowen returned to power, Emperor Xiaowen established a meritorious career.
You're still so young, and you're sure to make a big difference in the future. ”
After Huo Guang finished speaking, he set his eyes on the location of the tomb of King Su in Chang'an, his gaze seemed to be able to pass through space, where there was not only the body of King Su and the emperor, but also King Luowen!
One hundred and fifty years of great man, who doesn't want to be the second king of Lowen!
Glory and wealth during his lifetime, holding the world's great politics, after his death, he was extremely grieved, he was not liquidated, he left his name on the history, and he was loyal and righteous through the ages, and he was worthy of enjoying Liu's Taimiao, and he was subject to the incense of the dynasty at the age of years, who doesn't want to?
But after several hundred and fifty years of the Han Dynasty, only I, Huo Guang, have this opportunity!
As long as I am still in power during my lifetime, my Huo Guang's reputation in the Han Dynasty will always follow after King Luowen, thinking of this, Huo Guang couldn't help but tremble with excitement.
Liu She has not been crowned yet, and he should not have returned to power so early, but Huo Guang can't wait, he wants to let them stay for a while when the princes enter Beijing this time.
Within one year, the grand ceremony to celebrate the birth of the royal children, the post-election ceremony, the wedding of the emperor and queen, the crowning after marriage, and the return ceremony will all be completed!
The princes would never have imagined that they had just come to participate in a celebratory ceremony and would not be able to go back.
But the advantage is probably that he doesn't have to run back, and Huo Guang thinks that those princes and magnates have to thank him.
……
Liu She returned to the harem, with the official birth of the prince and the increasing number of pregnant people, the queen mother was a little more relaxed about safety.
Liu She entered the garden, and all she saw was enchanting and gorgeous, spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, each with its own good scene, during which many women's abdomen was high and bulging, and they couldn't help but feel happy.
After more than a year of experience and comparison, Liu She was a little dislike for the young woman that Huo Guang and the queen mother were looking for, and the experience given by the two sides was really far apart, and he thought that the reason why he had no heirs before was because of this.
Thinking of these in his mind, Liu She walked quickly with a smile on his face and gathered among the women, causing a burst of exclamation and laughter.
"It would be nice if the general could always assist me, my life is only fifty years old, and I am all used to govern the country, I am really too tired, why don't I make the beauty laugh."
Thinking back to the kings and princes he saw in the palace, and then looking at the ambitions of these beauties in front of him Liu She who had just been aroused by Huo Guang, completely calmed down, "It is enough to keep the foundation of the ancestors." ”
————
Until the establishment of one hundred and fifty years, the Han Dynasty still has a strong vitality, the author thinks that the root of the lie lies in the central and local double insurance, in the Han Dynasty, the central government implemented the prime minister system, the prime minister has great power and can even check and balance the imperial power, the great general Sima in the Huo Guang period can replace the prime minister, this system makes the policy of the imperial court not to the extreme.
When Emperor Liu Dan destroyed the central system, the double insurance set up by the Han Dynasty played a role in quickly correcting the mistakes of the central court, and the Han Dynasty seemed to be back on track.
However, when the author flipped through the historical materials of the eleventh year of Lingjue and the twelfth year of Lingjue, there was a new judgment, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty reinstated the prime minister system that could check and balance the imperial power in the central government, especially his appointment of Huo Guang Auxiliary Government to further strengthen the power of the prime minister, but in the locality, the double insurance is at the point of almost invalidation! ——"The History of the Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
