Chapter 125: Don't dare not come to the king
Although the Qiang people have become a big problem for the Han Dynasty, the Han people still look down on them from the bottom of their hearts.
Thinking that they are a barbarian people who drink blood and do not understand the king, apart from suppressing and pacifying, they have never thought of accepting them sincerely.
This can be seen from other submissive peoples, such as Wuling Barbarian and Banji Barbarian......
No matter how many years they have been in the Han Dynasty, the Han people still call them barbarians.
The glory of the past has given the people of Dahan a sense of superiority and always treats them with a condescending attitude.
Liu Zhi was very annoyed by the capricious attitude of the Qiang people, so he specially studied it in depth and found that the root cause was because they did not have a sense of belonging.
After each conversion, Han Chinese officials extorted against them, often even forcibly conscripting troops to attack other tribes.
When the imperial court rescued in a famine year, the local people would give priority to satisfying the Han people, and disregarding the life and death of the Qiang people.
So, whenever they are hungry, they will rise up and resist, and then repeat the path of being suppressed and pacified.
The cycle goes on and on, and it's almost an endless loop.
Now, it's time to think outside the box.
The three princes and nine ministers didn't care about pacification, the war between the imperial court and the Qiang people had a long history, and there was a rule for pacification.
Liu Zhi looked around and asked questions.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Qiang people are capricious, why not?"
"The Qiang wolves are ambitious and will take revenge, and they don't obey the king, they are all white-eyed wolves who can't be fed."
"This barbarian savage, uncivilized, and the people are fierce and untamed."
"Barbarians only know how to pursue profits, they don't know how to be grateful, and once their interests are contrary, they will turn their faces and be ruthless."
……
The ministers discussed one after another, all of them were condemning the Qiang people, no one was looking for reasons in themselves, and no one thought about how to solve this problem.
Liu Zhi was a little disappointed in his heart, looked left and right, and found Chen Fan, the speaker in the corner.
According to his rank, he originally had no right to go to court, but he was a close minister of the emperor, and Liu Zhi granted him the qualification to listen to the government.
Seeing his thoughtful look, Liu Zhi's heart moved, Chen Fan had no say in the court, if it was something else, he would definitely wait until the next court to ask in private.
But now, what he wanted was someone who could take the lead, so he smiled and asked, "Chen Fan, what do you think?" ”
Chen Fan does have some unusual ideas, and he didn't intend to say it directly, because of his master-apprentice relationship with Hu Guang, he has been very low-key recently.
At this time, when he looked up and saw Liu Zhi's meaningful gaze, he instantly understood that this was His Majesty's hope that he would come out.
After a little hesitation, Chen Fan made up his mind, since he planned to be a direct minister, why should he have so many concerns.
"I think that because the Qiang people are unruly and untamable, we should find a way to make them accept the ideas of my Han Dynasty.
Only by changing customs and making them Han Chinese, there will be no rebellion in the future. ”
His words caused a flurry of exchanges, some of them bowed their heads slightly, as if they agreed, and some of them shook their heads in disdain......
"This statement is very reasonable, when I was young, I traveled all over the world, once went to Hanzhong County, Yizhou, and found that the words and deeds of the Qiang people there are no different from those of the Han people."
The person who spoke surprised Liu Zhi that it was actually Huang Qiong, a lieutenant who he thought was more stubborn and conservative.
"Those Qiang people are particularly hospitable, intermarry with the local Han people, blend with each other, get along with each other peacefully, and never rebel repeatedly."
Huang Qiong's words attracted the attention of many people, after all, his prestige was relatively high, and his words were more convincing.
"What Taiwei said is just an isolated case, and it does not prove that those Qiang people are good by nature and can live in peace with Han people."
The pride in the bones of the Han people makes many people unable to truly accept the Qiang people, and in their hearts, the Qiang people have always been some barbaric and inferior people.
Therefore, there are still many people who oppose it.
"Oh? In this case, what are your clever plans to make the Qiang people no longer capricious and waste money and money? ”
Huang Qiong was very eloquent, and glanced at the man obliquely, looking very arrogant, as if she was looking at something super stupid.
The man was provoked by him, and his head rushed out, "Naturally, it is a combination of soothing and appeasement, and both grace and power are important." ”
"Whew!"
Huang Qiong sneered, looked at him with disdain, and said, "How many years have this method been used, if the effect is good, do you still need to argue here?" ”
The other party suddenly opened his mouth and couldn't speak, his face was flushed, and he racked his brains to refute his words, but he really couldn't think of any good way.
In the end, he could only retreat like a defeated rooster in frustration.
In the face of Huang Qiong's arrogant and invincible momentum, everyone was submissive, and finally reluctantly reached a consensus and tried to educate these barbarians.
Liu Zhi nodded with satisfaction, "Since you all agree, then so be it."
But how to educate? ”
This time, Huang Qiong naturally has the most right to speak, after all, he has experienced such things before, and he has experience.
Chen believed that the Qiang people's social dwelling mode should be broken up first, so that they could live together with the Han people, and then let their descendants accept Confucianism and remove their wildness.
It also made the Qiang and Han intermarry, and the blood was mixed, and over time, it would naturally be no different from the Han people. ”
"This ...... Everything else is fine, but it is inappropriate to make the Qiang and Han intermarriages, doesn't it make my Chinese blood mixed? ”
When it comes to the marriage between Qiang and Han, some people immediately disagree, feeling that it will pollute the Chinese bloodline.
Huang Qiong was immediately unhappy.
"In ancient times, the Qiang country was a soup country, and there were clouds: in the past, there was a soup, since the other side of the Qiang, don't dare not come to enjoy, don't dare not come to the king."
He is very knowledgeable, and he can be regarded as everyone, and it is even more irrefutable to move out of the Book of Poetry, even if he disagrees in his heart, but unfortunately he can't come up with evidence.
Liu Zhi smiled secretly in his heart, he could be regarded as having seen the outstanding combat power of this old lady, and when he was willing to help himself speak, he still felt very cool.
But once he sings against himself, it's enough to give him a headache.
"In this case, according to Taiwei's words, Shangshutai should list the statute as soon as possible, and tell all localities and local officials not to discriminate against the naturalized Qiang people, and all of them will be treated the same as the Han people."
Shangshu ordered Yuan Xuan to receive the order immediately, and today's court meeting can be regarded as a successful end, but the road to governing the Qiang people is still a long way to go.
Even if all these policies are meticulously implemented, it will take several years or even one or two decades before they can achieve initial results.
"Liang Budo, the editor-in-chief of Hanlin Yuan, stayed, and I have something to discuss."
Since accepting the position of the imperial court and being ordered to form the Hanlin Garden, Liang Budo began to go to the court.
Compared with the arrogance and arrogance of his brother Liang Ji at the beginning, he is the other extreme, obviously in the same position as Jiuqing, but he has no sense of existence.
Always bows his eyebrows, is humble and polite, treats anyone carefully, and never expresses his opinion in court discussions, as if he is an invisible person.
At this time, he was in a daze, when he suddenly heard the emperor's name, and immediately raised his head as if frightened, and looked at him in horror.
