"Your Majesty has done too much······

Early the next morning, outside the Weiyang Palace.

Waiting in front of Sima Gate early, quietly waiting for the palace gate to open, there are still people who can't bear the loneliness, and they talk quietly with people who are good friends.

Everything that happened in Chang'an yesterday has already spread in all directions at the speed of light with Chang'an as the center like a zombie virus in the last days.

People are talking to each other, and all kinds of theories are coming up one after another;

But everything has been distilled into the most popular and easy-to-understand vernacular, that is: today's holy lord issued an edict to let the martyrs who died in the First World War of Mayi bury their imperial tombs, and ordered the whole world to mourn.

For the people who were already jubilant at the victory of the Mayi, this news was obviously no less than after the first examination in Chinese history, people saw what kind of scenery Zhuang Yuanlang was, and how much help reading could play in changing their fate.

——Just like the unprecedented examination in later generations, let the people of the world understand that 'there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book': from this day on, the Han family has officially entered a new era.

A new era in which martial artists were already based on the rule of martial arts, but which were further promoted by the supreme ruler, valued the warriors to a staggering degree.

The common people are happy about this, naturally because this incident is closely related to the vast majority of the people at the bottom.

The reason is very simple: according to the laws of the Han family today, except for a very small number of noble children with extremely high titles and excellent family backgrounds, as well as clan relatives and relatives, every male in the world must go through a three-year (former) military skills training and two years of compulsory military service.

The three-year military training was arranged between the ages of 14 and 17, and the two-year compulsory military service was drawn at the county level from the age of 20.

This means that in today's Han family, unless you are a relative of the Liu family, or a relative of the emperor who is related to the queen and the queen mother, as long as you are a man, you will definitely go to such a situation in the army.

- Two years of military service, one year to defend the Beijing division, and one year to garrison the border wall.

To put it more bluntly: in the Han family now, every family has soldiers/there have been soldiers/there are soldiers soon.

Under these military systems, which can be described as 'all the people are soldiers', all changes in the military and military affairs are closely related to the people of the whole world.

If the treatment of the warriors is reduced, it is equivalent to the whole world will suffer;

The treatment of the warriors has been improved, which means that everyone in the world can be touched.

Therefore, even if it is not out of national hatred and family hatred, not out of resentment of past experiences, but only for their own vital interests - for their own children and grandchildren, so that they can get better treatment in the army, the vast majority of the masses are happy and convinced of Liu Sheng.

Because in the Han Dynasty, treating martial artists favorably is equivalent to treating people in the world.

In the Han Dynasty, martial artists are basically equal to people in the world.

It's just that the cheers of the masses at the bottom did not resonate with the aristocratic class.

Especially those 'pure civil officials' who don't have martial arts and don't have any plans to go to the army to have some training, and just want to lead Yulu to live, don't mention how bad it is in their hearts.

said that at this moment, there were obviously more smiles and laughter outside Sima Men, but there was still a person - a veteran who had been among the nine Qings, who had gone through Taizong, Xiaojing and the current three dynasties, and who played an important role inside and outside the court, appeared beside Liu She with some unhappiness.

And for the appearance of this person, Prime Minister Liu She does not seem to be surprised·······

"It's a servant······"

Pretending to say hello to Yuan Ang indifferently, and bowing his head and smiling meaningfully, Liu She looked at Yuan Ang's gaze, and then became more and more playful.

Liu She and Yuan Ang are different.

To be precise, the Han family now, and even the vast majority of ministers since the Han Dynasty, are different from Yuan An.

Take the distance from the position of prime minister where Liu She is sitting now: from the first Han Dynasty Prime Minister Xiao He, the second Pingyang Yihou Cao Shen, to the Beiping Wenhou Zhang Cang during the reign of Emperor Taizong, and the late Anzhen Wu Marquis Shen Tujia and Tiao Hou Zhou Yafu during the reign of Emperor Xianxiaojing.

Xiao He, Cao Shen, Wang Ling, Chen Ping, Shen Shiqi, Zhou Bo, Guan Ying, Zhang Cang, Shen Tujia, Zhou Yafu - the first ten Han ministers since the founding of the Han Dynasty, nine of them are based on martial arts in the temple.

And among these nine people, except for Zhou Yafu, who belongs to the model of the self-reliance of the sons of the Marquis, the remaining eight are all founding fathers!

The only Marquis of Biyang, who was not born as a meritorious marquis, was also crowned by the monkey in that special era because of the Empress Dowager Lu.

And Tao Qing after Zhou Yafu, and now Liu She, although they are not the founding fathers themselves, they are also undoubtedly the sons of the Marquis.

To put it bluntly: although people don't have martial arts themselves, their Lao Tzu is the founding father!

The prime minister is like this, naturally because of the unspoken political rule of the Han family's 'no Hou is not the prime minister';

But even so, even if there are no similar unspoken rules for the other positions of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries except for the Prime Minister, in fact, in the past few decades, only a very few people have been able to serve as the ministers of the Han family as 'pure civil officials'.

Xiao He, the Marquis of Yuwen, who compiled the Han law and laid the foundation for the construction of the rule of law in the Han Dynasty, should be regarded as a civil official, right?

——The first hero of the founding of the country who was personally admitted by Emperor Liu Bang of Taizu Gao, 'The Han Dynasty was able to build a country and build a temple, and Xiao He was the first to make a contribution'!

Huang Lao Giant, Pingyang Hou Cao Shen, who carried out the 'rule by inaction' to the end, is finally an academic master, right?

——The heads of the enemy army that people cut off at the turn of the Qin and Han dynasties were more than the days when he was not drunk during his time as prime minister!

formulated a ritual system for the Han family, and even during the reign of the man who caught Confucianism and opened it, kicked into the ditch when he saw Confucianism, and peed in it after grabbing the Confucian crown, he became an official of Jiuqing as a Confucian scholar - Shusun Tong is finally a 'literati', right?

——I'm sorry, the gentleman is proficient in all the six arts, and the partial department is also biased in the direction of better personal force, and the riding skills and archery skills are excellent!

It is no exaggeration to say: In that era when fierce generals were like clouds and famous ministers were like rain, Shusun Tong introduced Confucian scholars and capable officials to Jiuqing, and it was really the word 'virtue' faintly presented by the muscle lines behind him that made those proud soldiers and founding fathers obediently shut their mouths when they founded the country.

It can be said that Emperor Liu Bang Yichao, except for the four former Qin doctors that Empress Dowager Lu found for the crown prince Liu Ying, Liu Bang's palace has never appeared as a 'pure civil official' or 'pure literati'.

During the reign of Empress Dowager Lu, the same was true.

In this situation, it was not until the death of Empress Dowager Lu and Emperor Taizong Xiaowen that some subtle changes began to occur since the reign of Emperor Xiaowen.

Because in the year when Emperor Taizong succeeded to the unification, there were two talents at the level of national scholars who were difficult to produce for thousands of years.

- Dr. Jia Yi of "Spring and Autumn".

- Dr. "Shangshu" is wrong.

The result?

At the age of 20, Jia Yi has repeatedly offered good ideas and even famous strategies and famous articles in history;

Unexpectedly, this move was not only adopted by Emperor Taizong, nor did it bring substantial help to the Han family, but instead attracted the disgust and dissatisfaction of the founding fathers including Zhou Bo.

An extremely absurd 'crime' of 'discussing state affairs at a young age' made Emperor Taizong have to hide Jia Yixue, and wanted to recover many years later, but he died of depression due to the fall of Liu Yi, the king of Lianghuai.

Although Chao Cuo's life was slightly better than Jia Yi's, it was not much better.

- Originally only because of 'literacy' to serve as a clerk;

Later, with the speed of Zhou Yayu, and then went to teach "Shangshu" in Jinan Fusheng, he was able to become a doctor of "Shangshu" with only a false name.

After paying homage to Dr. Guan, Chao Cuo, like Jia Yi, gave good advice to Emperor Taizong one after another.

is the same as Jia Yi's experience: Chao Cao's recitals have been highly praised and recognized by Emperor Taizong without exception, and even the entire government and the opposition, but not even one of them has been adopted.

After gradually understanding his own situation, Chao Cuo finally came back to his senses and began to shift his attention from the doctor's main job: providing advice, to gradually shift his attention to the next generation of Sheji's family: the prince Liu Qi.

Because after witnessing the experience of Jia Yi, a soldier of the same year, and experiencing the same thing himself, Chao Cuo finally understood: It's not time yet.

The Han family has not yet reached the time of civilian rule.

Therefore, Chao Cuo began to invest in the future and focused his attention on the future of the Han family.

Chao is wrong, not wrong.

After the death of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen and the succession of Emperor Xiaojing, the general environment really ushered in a turnaround.

- After the succession of Emperor Liu Qi of Xiaojing, he was able to 'ascend to heaven as a henchman of the hidden palace', and quickly worshiped the internal history;

For a period of time, Chao Cuo was just a Jiuqing, and he was not even a doctor of Yaxiang Yushi, and he was able to rely on Tianzi Qi, who supported himself behind his back, to abuse Prime Minister Shen Tujia without the power to fight back.

While abusing the prime minister of the dynasty with one hand, Chao Cuo could even free up the other hand, and the representative of the 'civil official' who was also powerful at that time: Yuan Ang had a trick!

It can be said that from the death of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen and the accession of Emperor Xianxiaojing to the pacification - this short period of a few years is the most comfortable and beautiful period of time for the civil official group in the Han court since the Han Dynasty.

It's just that Wu and Chu were in turmoil, and they were just replaced by the group of founding fathers who had just been exhausted by the years and the group of heroes who put down the rebellion in the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu.

Up to now, the group of heroes of Wu Chuping's rebellion has not completely faded, and there is a group of national heroes and emerging military nobles of the Mayi Campaign······

"Perhaps, if I say so, the prime minister will think that I, Yuan An, am a person who can't tolerate people and can't get used to seeing others live better than me."

"But even if you want to despise me, please don't forget to think about it: Is Your Majesty really right to do this?"

"——The so-called: the lonely yin does not grow, the lonely yang does not grow, the yin and yang are harmonized, and the way of heaven and earth is combined."

"In the households, yin and yang are women and men, and in the community, yin and yang are civil and military."

"Your Majesty is so heavy on martial arts and suppressing literature, helping the yang and suppressing the yin, how can it be a good thing for the community?"

···

"During the Warring States Period, when Zhang Yi entered Qin to meet King Qin Huiwen, he said: Qin Feng also had the beauty of "Pu Jia", but now there is only the fierceness of "No Clothes", and the countries of the Kwantung region only hear the Qin master tiger and wolf, but do not see the Qin envoy Zhili, which needs to be changed."

"Qin became strong by changing the law, won the world by strengthening the army, and in the end, he still lost the world because of the strong army."

"——Isn't this precisely because of Yingqin Sheji's 'yin and yang imbalance', the yang is too prosperous and the yin is too empty, and Yingzheng only acts domineering and does not follow the royal road?"

"Isn't it precisely because of this that Emperor Taizu Gao said: My Han family has its own system, and it is a tyrant and a royal magazine?"

"The previous emperors of my Han family did everything they could, but they also locked the Qin 20th-level military merit lord Mingtian Mansion into the cage, and locked the man-eating beast into the cage, isn't it precisely to correct Qin's mistake of being too heavy on military force and overly suppressing literature?"

···

"My Han family is located in the Qin Dynasty, and the capital is in the middle of Qin, and the folk customs are already strong and strong, and the martial style is quite prosperous;"

"Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, Emperor Xianxiaojing - the rule of the entire Wenjing, isn't it that these two emperors spared no effort to make my Han family 'reconcile yin and yang', and the civil and military complement each other?"

"As a result, Your Majesty rushed to this stall where he was about to perform the crown salute and take charge of the government, and abandoned the efforts of Emperor Taizong and Emperor Xiaojing, and even filled another fire on the martial style that was already prevalent in the Han family!"

"As the prime minister, isn't Taohou going to do something?"

seemed to be worried, and even had a little heart-wrenching words, which only caused Liu She to raise his eyebrows in some surprise;

But seeing that Yuan Ang only frowned, he looked at Liu She without dodging, as if he had just said that, Yuan Ang really had no selfishness.

- Actually, Yuan Ang still didn't say anything too ugly.

What Yuan Ang really wants to say is actually not 'Isn't the prime minister going to do something?' Rather, "Why didn't the prime minister stop His Majesty earlier?" ’。

Yuan Ang left himself a decent place, and also left enough room for this topic to turn around, so Liu She naturally didn't want to tear his face;

But after thinking about it repeatedly, Liu She finally decided to break his own principles - break his principle of concentrating on loyalty to the Son of Heaven and not caring about other people, and give Yuan Ang a word of advice.

It's not because Liu She is really so kind and wants to help Yuan Ang see something.

But as the prime minister, Liu She, really needs the peace of the minister, and the court is united······

"Yuan Gong, I haven't seen Chao for many years, right?"

"——I don't mean 'I haven't visited Chao Cuo for many years', but Chao Cuo has left Chang'an, and it has been many years."

"Yuan Gong didn't want to think about it: Why would a person like Chao Cuo be willing to go to the bitter cold land in the north and not be his sub-prime imperial doctor in Chang'an?"

···

"Alas······"

"Yuan Gong, I'm afraid I haven't figured it out yet······"

"-Han family, the sky has changed~"

"Hey ······"

···

"Emperor Taizu Gao entered Guanzhong first and made three chapters with the people of Guanzhong, so everyone in the world knows: Pei Gong Liu Ji, benevolence and love the people."

"Emperor Xiaohui is the Han Guozuo, sleeping and eating with Confucian students day and night, so the people of the world understand: Emperor Xiaohui, Confucianism is weak and benevolent."

"Empress Dowager Lu is in charge, and she uses all the relatives and nephews of Lu, so the government and the opposition have a clear mind: Empress Dowager Lu is here, and the Lu family is strong······"

"Emperor Taizong Xiaowen succeeded to the unification, but handed over power to Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and other old ministers, and only occasionally stood up to care about the lives of the people in the world, so everyone in the world said: Emperor Taizong Xiaowen is a living saint."

"When Emperor Xiaojing arrived, he had been the crown prince for more than 20 years, and when he became the prince, he was the same as when the prince was in charge of the country, and everyone in the world would think: As long as Emperor Xiaojing is here, the big guy will be able to be sure."

"And now ······"

In the end, Liu She looked at Yuan Ang again with a gaze full of meaning.

"Now, Your Majesty has issued an edict to the world: Fan I am in power, and Wufu is the ······ of the country"

"Yuan Gong, don't you still understand?"

···

"Yuan Gong, it's really time to wake up······"

"This Han family is no longer the Han family when Emperor Taizong and Emperor Xiaojing were there, and it is no longer the ······ when 'Wenjing Zhizhi'"

"The sky has changed, if Yuan Gong remains unchanged, then I am afraid I can only go to Baling and Yangling, and accompany Emperor Taizong and Emperor Xiaojing to ·········"
