Chapter 883
Stone emerges
Wei Guan is a smart man, and of course he knows what Yang Zheng is thinking.
After unifying the Central Plains, Wei Guan became even more powerful, with more and more people joining his sect.
In terms of merit, Wei Guan was inferior to Lu Zhi and Du Yu, and was on par with Zhang Te, but Wei Guan gained the most power.
Lu Zhi did not care about future generations. He had two sons and five grandsons. So far, the highest official positions are only the county magistrate and Xuanyi Lang, and he has repeatedly refused to be rewarded by the court.
Du Yu and Yang Hu were determined to retreat bravely, and wrote many times to resign and return home.
In order to protect himself, Wang Jun did not hesitate to tarnish his reputation.
Compared with them, Wei Guan is a bit conspicuous.
Of course, Wei Guan's talents are definitely worthy of the post of Minister.
However, a big tree attracts the wind, so there are not no competitors in the DPRK. In recent years, the battle between them and the Qing camp has become more and more intense.
He can control himself, but with so many people under his command, can they all stay out of bounds?
Wei Guan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked back at Tai Chi Hall, and suddenly felt that Tai Chi Hall was a little unfathomable.
The emperor is the emperor after all...
In the Tai Chi Hall, the conversation between father and son continued.
"The way to be a king is to balance the various forces in the country. The court is often destroyed when one party's power is too strong. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the eunuch forces fought with the foreign relatives' forces. The nobles tried to lure Dong Zhuo to the capital, and the Eastern Han Dynasty collapsed!"
"Can't the court be without fighting?" Yang Xu's eyes were somewhat innocent. Without waiting for Yang Zheng's answer, he shook his head and said, "There has never been a court without fighting."
"You are right. The Qin Dynasty has unified the mountains and rivers. How can all parties and various factions not fight? Not fighting is the biggest problem, which means that the court has been completely controlled by some kind of force! As a monarch, you must always stay awake and let the fight go. Stay under your control, like this time, if Wei Boyu cannot control the power of his men, then it will be the father's turn to take action!" Yang Zheng said calmly.
Wei Guan became the leader of the Great Qin Gentlemen Alliance.
Pang Qing and Meng Guan targeted him everywhere, and of course they had their own problems.
But it was also caused by the over-expansion of the general-reducing faction.
Therefore, letting Wei Guan deal with the Yingchuan nobles this time actually gave him an opportunity to actively separate himself from the Central Plains nobles.
This is for his own good and for the good of Da Qin.
The people who gathered under the banner of Wei Guan were not all gentlemen, but there were also ghosts and monsters with ulterior motives.
The cunning rabbit dies and is cooked by running dogs, and the flying birds use up their good bows.
If Yang Zheng doesn't want to play this trick, he must give appropriate instructions to the founding heroes.
"I know!" Yang Xu cupped his hands and said.
Yang Zheng sighed, "That's how emperors are. They can't have emotions and desires. Being too close to anyone or relying on anyone will cause problems. That's how it is when you are alone."
"For the sake of the people of the world and the great Qin State, I am willing to go on." Yang Xu's eyes were very determined.
Isn't sixteen or seventeen the age when a person makes a decision?
Yang Zheng was quite pleased, "Okay, there is a successor to Great Qin!"
It was not only the Yingchuan nobles who were implicated in the assassination of the prince, but also many small and medium-sized wealthy families in the Central Plains. Wei Guan handled matters in a clear and orderly manner.
Everyone involved was more or less colluding with the Yingchuan gentry.
All were exiled to the border areas.
On Zhuque Street, there were a lot of people with unkempt hair and dirty faces.
Xun Xu, the chief offender, was also among them. He stared at Wei Guan who was passing by, "Wei Guan, Wei Guan, you treat yourself as a villain and take advantage of a gentleman. Is it inevitable?"
Wei Guan stopped and said, "Gong Zeng, the era of the gentry is gone forever!"
"Without the gentry, how can the Yang family govern the country?"
To be a traitor who overthrows the country and disrupts the current situation.
In fact, his real loyalty is to his family.
It is precisely because he formed a habit in the court of the Sima family, and it was still the same in the Qin Dynasty, that is why he has come to this day.
Wei Guan looked at him sideways and said, "At this time and that time, there are no nobles, but there are still scholars."
Xun Xu was stunned.
Could he not have known that Great Qin was advocating the spirit of scholars, that people from poor families could become scholars, people from common people could also become scholars, and powerful people from noble families could also become scholars...
"Your Majesty's talents and strategies are far beyond what you and I can see. Your Majesty has gone well. At least three of your Xun family have not been wiped out. The bloodline can still be continued..." Wei Guan walked away step by step.
Xun Xu could only stare at his back blankly until the executioner's knife fell...
"I am guilty, please punish me." Wei Guan bowed before Yang Zheng and Yang Xu.
"Bo Yu's words are serious." Yang Zheng helped Wei Guan up.
He handled the prince's case cleanly. Not only was the Yingchuan gentry uprooted, but many people who relied on him were also cleverly involved. They were exiled and relegated, and no one was unjustly accused. There were many more under his butt.
There are few things.
The gentry in the Central Plains were weakened, and the population and land were released.
They are the ones who get the most out of the Sima family's land occupation system.
Xu, the land of Ying was originally a large farmland of Cao Wei, but it had been eroded by them long ago.
The Xuanyi envoys and the Jinyi Guards reported secretly that the people of the Central Plains were prosperous and after the land was equalized, they all praised the benevolence of the Qin Dynasty.
"I have been weak and sick recently, and I am really overwhelmed. I hope your majesty will contact me, an old man, and let me return to my hometown to take care of myself." Wei Guan cupped his hands and said.
When it comes to this, everyone knows it.
Yang Zheng didn't really want to take down Wei Guan, he just suppressed him.
Du Yu has Du Yu's talents, Yang Hu has Yang Hu's strengths, and similarly, Wei Guan's talents are irreplaceable.
"The prosperous age of the Qin Dynasty has not yet come, how can Boyu abandon me? Don't mention this matter again. If you are not feeling well, you can rest for a few days. Regarding the matter of the minister's order, I will let Yuan Kai and Yang Hu take care of you."
Wei Guan's eyes moved and he said, "Your Majesty is so considerate of me, how can I not die with all my heart?"
Yang Zheng had a look of emotion on his face, "If all the ministers in the world were like Boyu, we can expect a prosperous age in the Qin Dynasty!"
After Wei Guan retreated, Yang Xu sighed: "My father's methods are brilliant, and my sons and ministers admire him."
"Do you understand everything?"
"My father asked Wei Lingjun to take the lead, preserve his son's reputation for benevolence, clean up the Yingchuan gentry, benefit the common people, suppress the Jiangjiang faction, and let Du Gong reasonably ascend to the throne. From now on, the Jiangjiang faction can no longer dominate the family.
, it can be said that killing four birds with one stone.”
Yang Zheng nodded, "If you want to do things for the people of the world, you must pay attention to strategy and not act recklessly. Otherwise, if all the forces are mixed together, nothing will be accomplished in the end, just like when you were farming in Jiangdong."
I watched a TV series in my previous life. The imperial court changed rice to mulberry. It was originally a good thing that benefited the country and the people, but it ended up being a bad thing that harmed the country and the people.
"Please remember this!" Yang Xu said with a look of longing on his face.
"I heard that you have recruited Tao Kan, Zhou Chu and others under your command? These are talented people from Jiangdong. You should listen to their opinions more. I will give them some official positions, and then let your East Palace deputies be released to the prefectures and counties.
Experience, practice.”
Tao Kan's reputation is astonishing. Without him to put out fires everywhere, the Sima family would be finished early.
"Thank you, Father!"
