Section 696 Struggle for power and profit


The matter of Wu Yuan and Taixue has been completed, and it is finally the turn of the main event, which is also the focus of attention of the ministers of the Shuowang Dynasty this time, the establishment of the lord Duwei Yamen and the adjustment of the system of arbitrary power of the county and the state of the world.

Liu Che looked at the courtiers, pondered for a moment, and then made an opening remark, saying: "I read the history books, and saw that in the Spring and Autumn Period of the past, Qi and Chu fought for hegemony, and Heng Gong suffered from the strength of the Chu soldiers.

Take people as a reference, can know the gains and losses of the Qing and other scholars, the princes and the princesses, all virtuous and virtuous literature, clear in etiquette and music, familiar with the scriptures, there will be someone who can teach me, please write it, I will read it in person" The story of Guan Zhong's purchase of a deer is the most classic example of economic penetration in classical China.

It may also be the first example of economic warfare in human history.

Under the leadership of Guan Zhong's policy, the state of Qi successfully disintegrated the economy of the state of Chu with only 20 million dollars. made the state of Chu, which could have competed with the state of Qi for hegemony, fall into the quagmire of economic crisis, and could not extricate itself, and in the end, the soldiers of the state of Qi did not fight bloodlessly, so that the state of Chu succumbed.

This classic case and story is recorded in Guan Zhong's book Guanzi.

In the light and heavy chapters.

At this time, Guan Zhong's position is also very ingenious.

Nominally, Guan Zhong should be classified into the category of Legalism, that is, it is okay to say that he is the pioneer of Legalism.

But in fact, Guan Zi's book was classified as the foundation and theoretical source of the economic policy of the Huang Lao School.

However, on the other hand, Confucianism also acknowledges that Guanzi is a sage and a great power worth learning and learning from.

Confucius himself admired Guan Zhong very much.

As a result, this has resulted in hundreds of mainstream schools of thought, all of which respect Guan Zhong.

Regardless of factions, their economic policies and theories will inevitably draw nourishment from the 85 articles of the pipe.

As for the princes in power.

If anyone hasn't read the pipe, then he is basically not worthy of being a minister.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Che said it, the big guy immediately appeared in his mind the original record of Guan Zhong's purchase of deer.

Even the other articles under the light and heavy articles came out word by word.

And in the whole text, the pipe is always emphasizing one thing.

This matter, in the original text, is: accumulate lightly, scatter and carry out heavy.

In layman's terms, it is the power of the state.

Regulate and control the rise and fall of prices, and achieve the purpose of manipulating the world's prices and adjusting people's livelihood through administrative orders and the state's macroeconomic regulation and control.

This is why Liu Che played the grain protection price policy and the salt and iron official policy, and no one could criticize it theoretically and morally.

Pipe, hundreds of years ago, has proposed and implemented a similar theoretical policy.

In today's world, even the most arrogant people dare not say that they are financially stronger than Guan Zhong And the smart man heard Liu Che say this.

Immediately heard the string song and knew the meaning of Yayi, and knew Liu Che's thoughts.

The big farmer Cheng Shang Rong immediately came out and played: "The one who managed to destroy the past with 20 million money, and made the Chu master disperse, so that Heng Gong dominated the world, Your Majesty saw the subtlety, and valued the world with corn, salt and iron, and took the government of the sages and used it in the world, and this minister and other fools could not reach it."

Heng Gongzhi is far away from being as good as the ministers of the world, and His Majesty ordered the ministers to discuss the gains and losses of buying deer for the world, but also the view of the Holy King, His Majesty Fu Wei can move the Yin and Yang, and see thousands of miles" Countless people who slapped this sycophant sideways.

Shocked, jumping, robbing me of the script of my lines Shang Rong was upright, and then said: "In the humble opinion of the ministers, Your Majesty will establish a government of Su salt and iron, and benefit the world with hundreds of millions of trillions of Lishu, and An Neng will no longer establish a new policy."

Supervise the duties of the world's merchants, hold the right to inspect the vehicles and ships of the Jia, and hold the responsibility of supervising the unauthorized authority of the county and the country.

Shang Rong took a step forward and bowed: "The minister respectfully asks the lord to be the captain of the lord to control the world's merchants and Jia Shu, and His Majesty Fu Wei is the imperial review."

Liu Che looked at Shang Rong with a very satisfied smile on his face.

Ever since he let out the wind and wanted to make the lord and lieutenant, he had been waiting for that clever courtier to take the initiative to come forward with such a suggestion.

Liu Che originally thought that he would have to agitate and agitate before someone would take the initiative.

Unexpectedly, this merchant is so knowledgeable that he doesn't need to mobilize, so he wrote a note by himself.

Yes, it's not in vain that I'm promoted and cultivated.

With Shang Rong taking the lead, the others also threw away the festival one after another, and quickly followed up Since the first crab was not eaten, it was even more necessary to stand in the line.

I can't fight against the Son of Heaven, and I can't leave the impression in the heart of the Son of Heaven that so-and-so is wrong with me, and I always like to do it.

Especially the chief officer of the priests around the thousand stones.

For these people, their promotions, appointments, dismissals, and future prospects are all dependent on the joy and anger of Liu Che, the emperor.

Offending the emperor is tantamount to self-exclusion.

The example of Feng Tang, a famous minister in the previous generation, taught these people very well, not to confront, let alone offend the emperor.

Otherwise, no matter how talented you are, you will have to go around in the county.

Let's go back to the center and dream But the thoughts of the two thousand stones are different.

When the official reaches 2,000 stones, he has already entered the protection range of the Han generals.

Even if the emperor hated them again, he would devolve to the place if he died.

The two thousand stone courtiers were decentralized, at least they were also local county guards.

Even the people who are most hated by the emperor can get an official position similar to the princes, princes, princesses, and prime ministers, and talk about masturbation.

When the first emperor was the emperor, Zhang Shizhi, the former court captain, offended the first emperor like that, and he was not able to become the prince and the prime minister Of course, under normal circumstances, no courtier with two thousand stones is willing to fight the emperor for something irrelevant, let alone deliberately confront the emperor.

However, if the benefits and benefits involved in something are too great.

Surely someone is willing to take a little risk.

For example, Shaofu Liu She has no doubts about the big farmer, so he must be willing to argue on the issue of the lord and the captain. vowed to turn this yamen into one of the subordinates of his yamen.

And the bureaucrats of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial Historian's Yamen are also eyeing each other.

Under the Han family system, the prime minister and the imperial historian Yamen overlapped in many functions and powers, and they fought openly and secretly with each other.

Theoretically, the prime minister is in charge of the military affairs of the world, and he is the highest-ranking minister under the Son of Heaven.

But Dr.

Yu Shi is not bad.

As a sub-minister, he supervised hundreds of officials, held the power of impeachment, and also had the power to punish and kill the law of the document catalogue.

So.

Historically, when a new yamen is established, the prime minister and the imperial historian yamen will compete with each other, even if this new yamen is only in charge of municipal garbage disposal Not to mention that the lord and the captain are so obviously rich and powerful.

More influence on the world's institutions Without that bureaucracy, there would be no desire for more power.

It can even be said that, if possible, the bureaucracy will seize every opportunity it can seize and take power for itself.

As for what to do after gaining power, then we will talk about it then.

In short, the most important thing is to seize power first As a result, there was a very rare scene in the hall since the Han Dynasty: Saw.

After the discussion, one of Liu She's right-hand men, Zhao Hu, one of the six Shaofu ministers in charge of Shaofu garden and fake field affairs, came out and said: "Your Majesty is well aware of the righteousness, Jiatianxia Li Shu is a great beneficiary, since Yuande, there are countless good governance, and so far hundreds of thousands of dollars have been banned from the inner treasury to revitalize Yuan Yuan, care for orphans and widows, respect the elderly, and repair channels.

Build a waterwheel, implement the policy of Ansu to protect the price of grain with salt and iron, and build armaments, and reorganize six divisions.

Virtue is born.

Ze and birds and beasts, and now with the story of the sages, teach the minister, this minister is foolish and can not reach, but although the minister is stupid, but the minister's loyalty and righteousness are endless.

I would like to ask you to add the financial power of the treasury to benefit the society, and His Majesty Fuwei will read it."

Blind people know that this Zhao Huming is to include the lord and the lieutenant yamen into the Shaofu system.

Otherwise, what does he do so much Isn't it just to show that our Shaofu has paid a lot and done a lot, and in terms of finance, we are experts.

Leave the professional matters to the experts The big farmer immediately couldn't bear it.

Another big farmer, the undoubted henchman Fan Xun immediately jumped out, holding a note, and worshipped: "The ministers are training to die to play Your Majesty: Since Your Majesty has developed the benefits of salt and iron, with the policy of light and heavy, to benefit the common people, the big farmers have been loyal to the king with the heart of death, and set up a salt and iron division in the county, relying on the authority of Your Majesty, the spirit of the society, and the ministers have worked hard, so far they have increased the number of salt and iron officials in the county of the world with more than 1,300 ranks, and set up salt and iron official residences, and 35 places have heard of His Majesty's holy teachings, ministers, etc.

It is to ask His Majesty the Treasury to be punished."

Then Fan Xun looked at Zhao Hu with a smile, and the provocative taste in this couldn't be clearer.

Didn't you Shaofu say that you are experts?

Then we big farmers are not experts?

You can play finance, you can manage money Phew What's more, when it comes to local operations and the ability to lay networks in the county, especially the influence in the Wuchu Qilu region, can your Shaofu compare to our big farmers Besides, as the steward of the Inner Library of the Son of Heaven, you can help Your Majesty manage the Shanglin Garden, the royal gardens, and the workshops with peace of mind.

Okay, the big farmer and the young man sang directly against each other This made the other onlookers enthusiastic, if it weren't for the Xuanshu Palace, some people would even want to shout and cheer.

And the two sides, although they are not the chief officials of the Shaofu and the big farmers, they are also not small.

Fan Xun belongs to the scholar class, although he was born as a sword and pen officer, but now in the Han family, most of the scholars and doctors are from the sword and pen officials, so there is no question of who is more noble than whom.

Therefore, when the scholars and doctors saw it, of course, they voted with their feet and supported the training.

Anyway, it's not a big deal to watch the excitement, waving the flag and shouting, anyone will do it.

As for Zhao Hu This official with the same name as the prince of Nanyue is the son of a liehou.

His grandfather was a blessed general in the Han family, and Shen Ze waited for Zhao Jiang at night.

Shenze waits for this country, there are not many food towns, only 700 households.

But the first prince Zhao Jiangye was a legendary figure among the heroes of the Han family.

Zhao Jiangye was in the Han Dynasty for three years before surrendering to the Han army camp, and it was Han Xin who surrendered.

This would have been impossible to be a marquis, let alone get the position of a founding hero.

However, the so-called lucky general means that no matter what difficulties and obstacles, it will not be difficult for him.

After surrendering to Han Xin, Zhao Jiangye first followed Han Xin to beat his former master, King Zhao Zhang'er, and swept Qi Chu away.

Then, his luck came, and he followed Emperor Gao to Pingcheng, and he also performed well in Pingcheng.

So, in Liu Bang's eyes, worship Shen Zehou.

Later, Han Shin knelt.

Liu Bang hung up, Zhao Jiang had no backer at night, and after Empress Lu came to power, he found an excuse to take away his fiefdom.

It was only three years later that the political situation changed again.

Out of the need to win people's hearts, Empress Lu restored Zhao Jiangye's title.

However, at this time, Zhao Jiangye was very dissatisfied with Empress Lu's strangulation of Gaozu's heirs, and often complained in private, criticized Empress Lu, and was extremely dissatisfied with Zhu Lu's domineering.

So, a year later, it was abolished again.

Originally, many people thought that Fukasawa was waiting for this time.

However, years later.

Empress Lü died, Zhu Lü was liquidated, and the acting king entered Chang'an from the country.

As a result, Zhao Jiangye's complaints and dissatisfaction became an example for loyal ministers.

The Fukasawa Candidate State was established again.

Shen Zehou has therefore become the most ups and downs in the history of the Han Dynasty, and is known as the Fu General, during the period of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, Zhao Jiangye was because of the name of the Fu General, and once served as the Yanmen County Guard and Guangluxun and other positions.

And most importantly, during this period.

Zhao Jiangye and the Dou family had a marriage.

Zhao Jiangye's youngest daughter married Nanpihou Dou Pengzu, and she can be regarded as a member of the Dou family's relatives group.

Although Zhao Hu is not the prince of Shenze, he is also relatively close to the Dou family.

His wife. is Dou Ying's sister, a relative of the emperor.

So the Dou family's relatives group was naturally willing to sell face to Zhao Hu.

Nanpi waited for Dou Pengzu, and sent a few younger brothers out to give Zhao Hu a platform.

Here, the big farmer and the Shaofu are arguing, over there.

The Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial Doctor Yamen had a quarrel again.

It's just that in the end, it is the only two Sangong Yamen, and this decency and method still have to be talked about.

Under normal circumstances, the Prime Minister and the Imperial Doctor will consult on national affairs to coordinate the positions of the two sides and bridge their differences.

After all, if the prime minister and the imperial doctor openly dismantle each other, the impact will be too bad The emperor will definitely not sit idly by and watch such a situation happen, the emperor will definitely intervene strongly, and strong intervention will only have an ending, and both sides will go home to farm.

However, if it is said that the Prime Minister's Mansion will love each other with the Imperial Historian Yamen, it is also impossible.

The original intention of setting up the Imperial Doctor was to balance the power of the prime minister, so that the power of the prime minister would not be outrageous.

Therefore, the negotiation between Zhou Yafu and Chao Cuo did not go smoothly.

The two giants exchanged opinions through text, but they were never able to reach an agreement.

The Prime Minister's Office felt that as the Prime Minister, it was natural that he had the authority to govern all the Yamen.

Even if it is Shaofu, you have to give us a report before doing something This lord is of course under my jurisdiction and supervision.

But Chao Cuo felt that the prime minister was too ugly.

I eat meat by myself, and I don't even give me a sip of soup, my uncle can bear it, and my aunt can't bear it In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the future authority and weight of this lord and captain will be very important.

Anyone with ambition or political ambition will not give up the possibility of putting his hand in it.

But this situation made the people who participated in the court meeting for the first time Pingjia dumbfounded.

One by one, they complained in their hearts: "Han official prestige, we just heard about it before, but we didn't want to, it's true" Well, back then, when Emperor Gao, the prime minister took the lead in a brawl at the court meeting, and the story of Emperor Taishang personally bringing his servants to fight with others was a long-standing gossip topic in the Han family.
