The Shi family and the royal family are not a complete community of interests.

It didn't take long for Liu Chan to fully realize this.

Even many times, the imperial power is on the opposite side of the family, so Liu Chan always wants to weaken the idea of the family, which is very normal in Lao Liu's opinion, and even a reflection of good teaching.

The political game and even the military struggle between the imperial power and the local families have not stopped since Gaozu established the Western Han Dynasty, and the Eastern Han Dynasty has intensified.

The excessive land annexation and expansion of power of the powerful family have always been a sword hanging over the head of the imperial power.

Liu Chan knows this.

"Father, Uncle Zhuge , Zen has some ideas, don't vomit or be unhappy."

Taking advantage of Lao Liu's happiness, Liu Chan planned to tell some of his thoughts to these two decision-makers who could be absolutely trusted, and discuss them within the three of them first.

They are not like themselves, and they do not have the vision of the posterity of the time-traveler.

But it is precisely because of this that it is more accurate to judge the reactions of other courtiers and powerful clans, so as to consider a plan that is more acceptable to people, so as not to cause an uproar.

Lao Liu was tasting what his son said, and he only felt that the more he tasted, the more flavorful it became.

He is a strange man in troubled times who can say "people-oriented" when he crosses the river with the people, but he has always been limited by the times and vision, and he always feels that he has no way, but he doesn't know where the crux is.

At this time, many new ideas emerged from these words.

Lao Liu was playing brainstorming with himself when he heard this: "Oh? Still have ideas? Speak quickly and listen to the father? ”

Zhuge Liang was also very curious, and most of the discussions he had with the prince along the way were about weapon upgrades, formation improvements, and tactical ideas.

There is little involvement in these government affairs, and at this time, Wen Yan is also full of interest, although he is still in good spirits after more than a month, and he does not feel tired at all.

"The decline of Han orthodoxy, children often think about the reasons for this, in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past." Liu Chan reasoned his thoughts and said, "I will try to say one or two words today, only for the reference of my father and Uncle Zhuge ......"

"Huh~ There are no outsiders here, why should my son be too humble, let's talk quickly." Lao Liu waved his hand and said.

"One of them is that the local tyrants just mentioned that they engaged in land annexation and cleverly seized the land, causing the people of Li to lose their land and become their vassals, but on the contrary, their power was further strengthened."

Lao Liu and Zhuge Liang nodded, they naturally knew this, and they had dealt with it before.

And Liu Chan's "ladder tax" system in Nanzhong can also be watched after the effect of Nanzhong and consider whether to implement it in other places.

Liu Chan continued: "Second, the imperial court's system of inspecting and electing officials is controlled by local county guards and the like, and there are many noble and selfless people, or are there many people with selfish intentions? Most of its elected officials are relatives and guests, and the family is growing day by day.

In addition to being loyal to the court, the person being lifted still needs to be loyal to the lifter. Most of the talents examined by the counties are considered for the selfish interests of the local clans, and the interests of the people of the country are disregarded, which eventually leads to confrontation and competition between the central and local governments of the country. ”

These words are a little deeper, Lao Liu frowned.

He also knows that the current probation system has this drawback, but the people who know best where there are talents and who are capable are not the local county guards and the big family names?

Bypassing them, how can we distinguish who is virtuous and who is mediocre?

Let's talk about the people who are most capable of studying and studying, that is, the children of these big clans.

In Lao Liu's view, this is an unsolvable dead knot.

Zhuge Liang was thoughtful, and had already linked this point with the first point that Liu Chan said, and the whole thing was strung together, and there was a lot of thinking.

He knows all these questions, but Zhuge Liang was also a member of the big clan, although his family was not a noble who could turn the clouds and rain.

Limited to the shackles formed by identity and thinking inertia, although he thought about it in the past, he stopped at a shallow level.

And now, with the expansion of Lao Liu's power, he has gradually raised his vision to the height of the king's assistant and the ruler of a country, which is not limited to the rise and fall of a family.

After a little more Liu Chan, I immediately felt that my thinking was clear.

[Zhuge Liang Opinion +1] (97)

Zhuge Liang got up suddenly, as if he had met his bosom friend for the first time.

He stared at Liu Chan and said excitedly: "The big clan monopolizes educational resources, and then uses the election of officials to obtain political power, uses power to obtain wealth, uses wealth to annex land, and uses landless farmers to gain military strength...... In the end, the end is not a big deal.

However, these tycoons who occupy more land use their power to resist taxes and avoid taxes, and avoid military service for their subordinates. The local tyrants hurt the public and private, so that the treasury was empty, and they were unable to maintain the army, but the tyrants and the powerful had private soldiers! ”

Liu Chan smiled: "What Uncle Zhuge said is extremely true. The more the oppression of the strong and the strong, and those who do not want to be slaves and shady households, they go up the mountain to become bandits, resulting in bandits everywhere, road tyrants are rampant, and the people are living in hardship.

And the imperial court, which had an empty treasury and was unable to maintain a large army, had to rely on local tyrants to suppress bandits, delegate military power, and divide the thieves and chaos the world...... The decline of the Han dynasty. ”

Zhuge Liang paced back and forth, then suddenly stopped and turned to Liu Chan: "Then the declining imperial power had to rely on relatives, and even eunuchs seized power and profit, intensified the contradictions, and finally caused chaos!" ”

Liu Chan arched his hand and smiled: "That's right, Zen may have incomplete thoughts, but I think it's generally like this." ”

Zhuge Liang also gave his hand: "The prince is quick to think, and he can sort out such a chaotic and disorderly matter, and he has a lot of wisdom." ”

Lao Liu half-opened his mouth, looking at his son and the military advisor, you and me, so that this chaotic world suddenly became organized.

Let him say to himself that he can't turn that fast in a short time, but he can hear it all.

At this time, Lao Liu's eyes also lit up, and he got up and said: "Therefore, when encountering the disadvantages of reform, we need to start from three aspects: culture and education, official election, and tax system!" The tax system treats the symptoms, the election of officials to govern the roots, and the cultural and educational ...... It is the basis for the election of officials! ”

Liu Chan looked at Lao Liu in surprise.

"The old man can, in one sentence, it belongs to the inference. It's hard to imagine that when you were in school, you knew how to play with dogs and horses and do fashion shows with Gongsun Chan."

How can a man who was led by Boss Cao as a confidant when he was down, how can he only have benevolence and no other strengths?

"A word from my father is better than a thousand words from a mediocre person, wonderful." Liu Chan immediately slapped him with a sycophant.

"The king is eloquent and talented, why worry about the Han family is not prosperous, and the Central Plains is uncertain." Zhuge Liang also arched his hand and slapped it.

Lao Liu's happy face turned red, he barely restrained his expression, and pointed at the two: "You guys, it's better to talk more and talk less about sycophants." ”

The three of them looked at each other for a moment, but Lao Liu himself couldn't hold back first, and all three of them laughed.

"Your Majesty, the banquet is ready."

"Good!" Lao Liu, who was a little drunk before he had drunk the wine, grabbed his son and the arms of the military advisor as when he came in, "Let's go, let's drink and talk." Hahaha......"

The three of them walked with their arms together, waved off the waiters during the banquet, poured themselves a drink, and continued to talk about the restructuring.

However, Liu Chan plans to stop here for the time being.

Today, he only intends to raise questions, and to solve the problem, he wants Lao Liu and Uncle Zhuge to brew again, and even discuss it with Fa Zheng and other resourceful people.

For the time being, he didn't want to use his existing ideas to interfere with their thinking.

Wait until they have their own ideas and solutions, and then they will talk about their ideas when they are there.

First, this can seem more natural, lest it be like he Liu Chan suddenly has a full set of solutions in his mind, and he doesn't know what gossip will cause and cause extraneous branches.

It is also necessary to avoid the ministers suddenly hearing about the new policy, and it is difficult to accept it, and there will be many contradictions.

Each of these things is important, or a long stream of water, as the saying goes, you can't eat hot fat people in a hurry.

"By the way, father, I'm going to Nanzhong, and I've brought you a gift back." Liu Chan said suddenly.

Lao Liu put down the wine cup and was stunned for a moment before saying, "...... Oh? What is it? ”

The son has always been everywhere before, only bringing gifts to his mother, when will he have his share?

Whether it is Yonghong's family wealth, war horses and cattle, it is all official business, and it cannot be counted.

At this point, he didn't know what to make an expression.

And Liu Chan was a little crazy in his heart: "Is there any mistake, my throat is about to smoke, and I even use it for gifts, and I can't brush up the last bit of favorability?!"

A little depressed, he took out a strange-looking straw figure and sent it over.

Lao Liu took this villain, which was not exquisite, but smiled very happily: "What is this?" ”

"This is a witchcraft doll from a tribe in Nanzhong, and it is said that it can block a difficult situation for my father at a critical moment."

"Hahaha, very good, very good, my son has a heart." Lao Liu's mouth was almost grinning to the root of his ears, solemnly took it into his arms, and asked casually, "What did you bring to your mother?" ”

Liu Chan froze when he heard this.

After drinking some wine, Zhuge Junshi, who was also a little above, looked at the prince's expression and said: "Liang vaguely remembers, it seems to be a jasper Ruyi with fine workmanship, exquisite materials, and no trace of variegated color throughout the body?" ”

Lao Liu's smile suddenly froze on his face......
