Sweep the World

Chapter 459: : The world is bustling; the world is bustling

Liu Yan's sense of the aristocratic family is neither good nor bad, and the one who has opinions is the system of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system.

In fact, the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system was pretty good at the beginning of its establishment. The intention was to promote more talents to be used by the court. Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful the system is implemented by people, it will deteriorate. The older generations of enlightened people passed away one after another, and the new power-holders moved on to the path of exclusive interests, entangled with a group of vested interests, cut off the channels for the grassroots to advance, and society became rigid.

Once a vassal state in the northwestern frontier, Qin, because of Shang Yang's reforms, removed the influence of the old forces and provided convenient channels for the grassroots to move upwards. Qin State glowed with unimaginable power and swept across the Central Plains from west to east. This example shows that the state is not solely held by those in power, only one heart can create prosperity.

After the first emperor ruled the world, he encountered difficulties. The new batch of military aristocrats controlled a large amount of land, and the military aristocrats with a large amount of land also controlled a sufficient population, forcing the first emperor to carry out reforms again, that is, to adopt a centralized system.

The centralization reform has one thing in common with the previous reforms of Shang Yang, that is, to eliminate the influence of one class and weaken the power of that class. When the first emperor is still alive, he can use coercion to eliminate any dissatisfaction, but the higher level should be rewarded. Not realized, the millions of soldiers who swept across the country did not get the rewards they deserve, but it became a big problem.

The collapse of the Qin Empire was the main reason for some things. The reason was that the first emperor made a huge joke to millions of soldiers of the Qin army. The soldiers did not get any rewards for their hard work. The field rewards that they should have received were delayed and delayed. Not only did they fail to get the rewards they deserved, but the military service and military service were not rewarded. Getting heavier. Of course the First Emperor is still alive and can force everything, but what about after the First Emperor is dead?

The senior leaders of the Qin Empire experienced the first emperor’s courtesy and persuaded them to retreat, and were later persecuted and purged by Hu Hai. This caused not only the disappointment of the bottom, but also the high-level officials felt deceived. When the Qin Empire was strong, there were no generals in the face of rebellions in various places. , Even to quell the rebellion depends on the prisoner, it is the cause that is planted in the front that will blossom and bear the fruit in the back.

"Facing the country's dying situation, the Great Wall Legion on the northern line reluctantly went south to counter the rebellion, and the Southern Xinjiang Legion cut off the road to the north to sit and watch." Liu Yan summoned the ministers in the capital city of Linzi that night to set up a banquet. For entertaining, there are some things that should be said: "Everything is only because the rewards promised by the king are not in place!"

At first, everyone came and didn't quite understand what happened. Liu Yan's rare long talk was about the history of the pre-Qin Dynasty. They listened for a long time, but they were stunned when they heard the latter sentence.

Sima Qian, who wrote the "Historical Records," he said early on, "The world is full of prosperity, all for profit; the world is hustling, all for profit". This sentence clarifies the truth of the world, can explain the reason for the struggle of one's life, and can also explain the process of the prosperity or decline of any dynasty.

"Shi Gong (Sima Qian) said exactly." Sang Yu was also one of those who were stunned just now, and he was joking again afterwards: "It is the nature of life to seek profit in this world." After finishing speaking, he also said "haha". Voice.

Tonight's Miyagi Night Banquet was held in a drizzle. The place where the king and his officials were located was Zhangtai, an environment where the roof was covered with rubble, but the surroundings were empty.

It will be cold if it rains and the wind is cold in winter. It is not a comfortable thing to blow the cold wind in winter. Even if there is no intention in every move of the king, it will be wondered whether it has any deep meaning. With Liu Yan's long talk before, the ministers who were blowing in the cold wind are now thinking about what to arrange in such a cold place is to make them alert.

"Although the world is big, it is small to the big man." Ji Chang lifted up the wine bottle and drank it. After putting it down, he said loudly, "The old things from the pre-Qin period cannot be repeated in the big man!"

Some people have also figured it out, and although they have said so much, they only tell the big stakes. Regardless of whether the benefits are large or small, a reshuffle will lead to a redistribution of benefits. When the Han army is about to go south, talking about those is more targeted.

The big Han is the big Han of the Han people, and the country has a new group of vested interests. How to distribute this big pie of the world can only be decided by the big Han, so it is inevitable to clean up the old vested interests.

When it was about to invade the south, the emperor would talk about those things, and the spirit of everything was lifted up.

After the night banquet in Miyagi was over, everyone left Miyagi, and they were all excited beyond imagination.

"The king's meaning is very obvious." There are many people opposite Sang Yu, but the administrative level is a lot worse. He said with a rare serious expression: "The battle of the Southern Expedition is just a shuffle. war."

Two different worlds are formed between the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River.

North of the Yangtze River, because the Hu people ruled for decades, and there is the old story of "clothing southward", there are not many families in the north that can be called aristocratic families, and some can only be regarded as large clans and powerful.

There are too many northern families migrating to the south of the Yangtze River, squeezing the space of the southern local families while also allowing various places to be included in the scope of the family's interests. This has led to the decline of the southern local families and a large amount of damage to the interests of civilians.

Because of the emergence of Han, a group of new emerging forces are in fact developing at a high speed, and that group of emerging forces is based on Liu Yan. With the exception of Liu Yan, a group of emerging power groups, the Hu family will not mention them. The only ones with a family scale are the Boring Cui clan, the Zhaojun Zhang clan, the Zhongshan Guo clan, and the Taiyuan Wang clan.

The Cui clan of Boring and the Wang clan of Taiyuan have already chosen to stand in line. A daughter of the Cui clan became the concubine of the Han prince, and Wang Ji of the Wang clan of Taiyuan defected to the Han country after the Battle of Xuzhou.

The Guo clan of Zhongshan and the Zhang clan of Zhao Jun still served Shijie before Shihu withdrew into the merged state. When the Han army arrived, the Guo clan of Zhongshan immediately jumped back. Ran Min and Lu Tai were able to easily conquer the counties of Zhao Di. Get the assistance of the Guo family. The Zhang family of Zhaojun was secretly moving closer to Han, but unlike the Guo family of Zhongshan, he immediately jumped back.

Central Plains now looks like the most aristocratic family of the Sang clan. Earlier there were children of the Sang clan serving as officials everywhere. Especially after the Han army conquered Wei County, as the Sang’s children returned to their hometown, a larger family was formed. The more obvious.

The Sang clan is followed by the Cai clan. If the Sang clan is the prefecture in Wei County, then the Cai clan definitely has a decisive influence in Dongmu County. Sangyu is the right prime minister of Han and Cai You is Han. In the history of Zhisu, both of them are in high positions.

Ji Chang, the left prime minister of the Han Dynasty, was born into a slave and had no family behind him, and his family was so rare that there were only two heirs. It's not that the population can't develop into the restriction of a family, it's the people he refuses to come close to, and there are those who climb relatives, and many of them have to fall under their wings.

After Shihu provoked a racial vendetta, most of the big clans and tycoons in the Han realm were purged, and the remaining ones faced separation. Faced with such a situation, the Sang clan and the Cai clan had to converge, but Liu Yan's speech tonight opened the door to a gap.

"Is the king going to clean the southern aristocracy?" Liu An, the head of the Liu clan in Pengcheng, has a much bigger background than he thought. It can be traced back to be a descendant of the Eastern Han imperial family. He will have a very remarkable descendant name. Liu Yu. Now Liu An wants to follow one of the Sang clan, and asks with expectation: "Then I will have the opportunity to participate in the Southern Expedition?"

Sang Yu’s impression of Liu An is rather deep. It’s not that Liu An has any extraordinary talents, but that Liu An had a time when he wanted to get married with Liu Yan. The reason was that there were rumours that Liu Yan was a descendant of Yan Han. Liu Yan didn't mention his origin at all, and Liu An was disappointed and cut off his thoughts on procrastination.

The Han dynasty attaches great importance to merit. It is the most convenient way to develop the family to join the army. It is not difficult to join the army. The more difficult thing is how to quickly emerge to prominence.

According to past practice, except when Liu Yan was in the end, the group of people who followed earlier followed the water and the boat rose, and it was only Ran Min who took the country to gain a high position in a short time, and the remaining people did not keep up with the fast lane unless it was. If you have great success, you will climb up one step at a time.

At present, they can still maintain a family appearance in Han. Basically, they have adopted the attitude of being aware of current affairs in the great catastrophe. They cannot resist the will of the country to split. After cutting branches and leaves, they need to find a new way out. The army expands outward.

Many large clans or powerful people in the north regard the Sang clan as a banner. After they get closer, they look at the Sangyu horses as their heads, and a new group is being formed.

The Cui family became a concubine of the Han Dynasty because of a daughter, and became another target for some big clans and tycoons in the Central Plains to move closer to.

Relatively speaking, Lu Yi, who went from Jiangxia to the north and became one of the nine princes of the Han Dynasty, also became a banner. He was surrounded by many aristocrats who came from the south.

The Jiangnan faction also has two lines, Huan Wen and Xie An, but they are much weaker than Lu Yi, and Huan Wen and Xie An have also been avoiding attracting more attention.

Even if it was Ji Chang, who had always wanted to be a lone minister, although he did not gather a group of people, most people who turned from common people to nobles still regarded him as the leader.

Then there is the naturalization group. The people they can follow are not easy to choose. Tuobaxiu, one of the concubines of the Han Dynasty, has become the banner. They are the most low-key group in Han.

The banquet tonight happened in more than one place, it was all about discussing how to get what in the Battle of the Southern Expedition. Liu Yan, who was in Miyagi, quickly received the report, and he just laughed.

There are factions where there are people, and it is completely impossible to avoid factions. After all, people are social animals. Whether it is the closeness of thoughts or the attraction of interests, it is inevitable to get closer to each other.

Miyagi was deep and secluded, some palace lanterns swayed from left to right in the drizzle, and the burning oil in the bedroom left a dull breath in the air.

In the past, Liu Yan should have gone to bed long ago, but tonight he was teasing with his four-month-old son, next to his eldest daughter Liu Yin who was playing.

In the summer of this year, Cui Wan gave birth to a big fat boy for Liu Yan.

Yu now means pig this year. There is another interpretation called dragon. The name is Shen. Liu Yan takes the word very much like he hopes his eldest son can be cautious in everything. There is also eagerly looking forward to the name Yu. meaning.

Having said that, Liu Che’s nickname for the first emperor of the ages is Xi’er, and the Cui clan is very excited about Liu Yan’s nickname for his eldest son. It’s a pity that Liu Yan didn’t immediately canonize Liu Shenwei. Prince.

As the Han army was about to go south, something special happened, and that was the follow-up of Liu Yanna’s interruption of the southern family daughter in Yuanshuo a year ago.

"Xie's, take the initiative to re-talk about the old things." Cui Wan was embroidering with some sisters. When she took the initiative to talk about it, the other people all moved with their hands. She seemed unaware of the surrounding things, and said to Liu Yan who was teasing her son from a distance: "Xie's Daoyun is a young age."

For people nowadays, Xie Daoyun is really Miaoling at twelve years old, but for Liu Yan it is Miaoling.

Liu Yan is about to be middle-aged, and accept a little girl who is not even thirteen years old. If she is to be shot in modern times, the problem is that the 13-year-old woman is now the age of marriage after the marriage.

It was not Xie An, who was an official in the Han country, who was re-discussing marriage, nor was Xie Shi, who was a small court in the Eastern Jin Dynasty conquering the governor of the capital, but Xie Yi, who was not currently an official.

Xie Yi’s current responsibility in the Xie clan is to teach the children of the family and cultivate a good generation for the family. Originally, Xie An should do this job, but Xie An’s destiny trajectory has gone wrong.

"She has a two-year-old brother named Xie Xuan." Liu Yan has an indifferent attitude towards accepting Xie Daoyun, and is extremely interested in Xie Xuan: "I heard of a fat boy with a tiger head and a tiger brain."

Xie Daoyun was already well-known at a young age in the south of the Yangtze River. She was able to write poems and have many talents. What really made her famous is the story of "The Talent of Yong Xu".

As a king, he paid attention to a two-year-old who had no intention of listening. Cui Wan and Zhang Lan immediately looked at each other.

Zhang Lan said, "I happened to take it over and have a companion with Xuer~www.wuxiamtl.com~."

Liu Yan hopes that Xie Xuan can be brought to the Han country. In ancient times, Liu Che trained Huo Wei (Huo Qubing) since he was a child. He absolutely wanted to train another Hussar general by himself. It seems that it is extremely difficult now, only to wait. Only when the south of the Yangtze River is included in the rule can it be implemented.

Many factions in the Han Kingdom are forming, and Liu Yan knows that it is inevitable. What he can do is to monitor but not destroy, but also to balance the situation. The ministers and workers are far and near, and the harem is also forming a similar trend.

The emperor is not good enough, Liu Yan's thoughts can't help but drift away. The small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty used Xie Shi as the main army to conquer the governor in Shouchun. How similar in history is that it still set up a battle in Palgong Mountain. During the "Battle of War", the layout of the Jin army hardly changed.

If there is a difference, it was not Fu Jian, the Great Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, of the Fu clan who wanted to throw the whip to break the water. Withdraw from the warring space?

…………

Xie Daoyun’s birth date is confusing, and there are differences in age in the book. Let’s do it first for the plot. r
