Chapter 2008 Salt and Iron Victory, Compromise Conference
Little Glacier, or the "Great Cold Period", is a secret known only to a very small number of people in order to prevent panic problems. After all, it is not only the people of later generations who grab salt to protect themselves from radiation and then eat it for three years.
Do. Therefore, most people under Fei Qian's rule just complained about the weather, and then continued to do what they originally did.
In Chang'an, the most popular place among the gentry's children, and also the most noble place, is naturally the Qinglong Temple. I will subconsciously go there when I have time. But now, a new bookstore has opened in the Qinglong Temple.
It was even more sought after by the children of the gentry.
Han people, in fact, many people are a bit talkative, because in the Han Dynasty, there were indeed too few things for leisure and entertainment. If there was a little bit of different information, it would be publicized everywhere, especially these young people
Some gentry children, in order to show their uniqueness, like to talk about things that others don't know, and this newly opened bookstore can obviously give these gentry children more advantages in this regard.
Because the books sold in the bookstore are all checked by Cai Yan and a group of female officials from the Zhiyin Academy. These books have been proven to lack many things that were intentionally or undoubtedly mixed in by later generations, and are the closest to the original works.
, naturally he was greatly welcomed by the children of the gentry.
Just like before, everyone was watching pirated copies and couldn't find the genuine ones, so the boss didn't laugh at the second ones. But now that genuine copies are available and they are not expensive, it is not commendable that people still engage in pirated copies.
It even makes people wonder if there is something wrong with his character.
In the Han Dynasty, being doubted about one's character was almost equivalent to being a useless person. Therefore, as soon as the Cai's Bookshop opened in Qinglong Temple, a large number of people gathered almost every time a new book arrived. Even if they already had this
I would check every volume carefully to see if there were any discrepancies between my own collection of books and Cai's books, so as not to be laughed at.
Cai, or Cai Yan, can do this because she has a good father.
It is an eternal truth that all good things are better than having a father. Don’t believe the nonsense about the starting line. The real starting line has been drawn at the moment of birth. Of course, the efforts of the day after tomorrow will indeed change some, but in
When the original class is not overthrown, most of them are individual phenomena, like a brave man defeating the dragon.
Cai Yong was a master of classics, history, poetry, and calligraphy. He especially liked to collect books. In his heyday, his collection was said to have exceeded 10,000 volumes. However, in history, most of his collection of books and his personal works were lost during the war. In the original version
In the history of Cai Yan, Cai Yan was taken back by Cao Cao after he had been in exile for twelve years. He said that he had read four thousand volumes of books in his family, but in the end he was able to write down only more than four hundred pieces.
But in the current time and space, because there are no such miserable experiences, the power of the Royal Library of the Han Dynasty is slowly revealed.
Before the establishment of Zhiyin Academy, Cai Yan was already completing some of Cai's lost books. However, it was not very convenient to be in the academy at that time. It is different now. Strictly speaking, the female officials of Zhiyin Academy are all
Cai Yan's subordinates, and the literary quality of these noble ladies is even higher than that of ordinary male nobles. After all, boys are more playful, and if a girl goes crazy, no one will dare unless she is a princess.
marry...
Therefore, Cai Yan, with the help of several female officials who were proficient in writing and calligraphy, silently wrote many articles revised by Cai Yong or nearly a hundred articles written by him, including poems, rhymes, steles, edicts, inscriptions, praises, and proverbs.
Diao, discussion, congratulations, chapter list, secretary, etc., also corrected some scriptures with large discrepancies, which were almost engraved on stone tablets like Cai Yong did back then.
Naturally, Sima Hui, an old fox, was not to be outdone. For most of the books, he happily wrote "prefaces", indicating that they were approved by Sima. Zheng Xuan was relatively reserved at first, but later joined in and added a lot.
"Postscript", and even waiting for the new book to be newly edited by Cai Yanzhiyin Academy, rushing to write the "Preface"...
Fei Qian didn't want to fight about this, because Fei Qian didn't intend to go too far on the road of being a literary scholar. It was enough to be able to maintain his current reputation. He felt that he should put more energy into more
On a macro level.
Of course, in a broad sense, this can also be regarded as a kind of "wenzhi".
"Aren't there any new books yet?" A gentry boy walked through Cai's Bookstore like a monkey, expressing his resentment that there were no, uh, new books.
"It will take a few more days... But, have you heard? His Majesty opened the debate on salt and iron in Yingchuan..."
"What? The theory of salt and iron?"
"Ahem, don't you know? Aha, what, I have something else to do..."
"Don't leave! Speak clearly before leaving!"
The guy who started the conversation immediately was caught, and he had to pretend that he was "forced". With "no choice", he started talking about the big talk about salt and iron in Xu County...
……(*≧∪≦)(?▽?)/……
Unlike Chang'an, where the Husbands are based, Liu Xie's life is not so comfortable. But people have to pursue something in life. Everyone knows about Liu Xie's pursuit, but not everyone recognizes it.
Is it difficult to guess Liu Xie's thoughts?
Obviously not.
In fact, the idea of the Salt and Iron Forum that Liu Xie wants to hold is not very good. Everyone in the court in Xu County can basically guess what Liu Xie wants to do...
Does Liu Xie really care about salt and iron? Is he planning to discuss salt and iron?
Just like, did Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty really care about salt and iron? Did he really want to discuss the pros and cons?
Liu Xie's limited appearances in public didn't seem to be very good. This time, it was a rare opportunity for Liu Xie to appear in a positive image. As for Liu Xie, he seemed to be forced to cry on the city wall by the "rebellion army"
In this situation, the nobles can selectively ignore it.
The current salt and iron debate is somewhat the same as that of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, but also somewhat different. After all, the debate on salt and iron back then was ostensibly a debate between court officials and virtuous scholars, but in fact it was a compromise made by Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty.
This time, the Salt and Iron Discussion held by Liu Xie was still a compromise, but there was no debate, and it was more of a division.
During the Luoyang period, most formal court debates like this were held in the Deyang Palace. However, after the capital was moved to Xu County, the area of the palace was naturally reduced a lot, although the main hall was also called "Deyang Palace"
, but the size is a lot smaller, so I usually don’t think it’s that big of a deal, but now that there are more people invited, it starts to feel cramped and crowded.
According to the rules, only officials with more than 2,000 dan are qualified to enter the main hall to meet the emperor. Generally, those with about 1,000 shi can only stand at the door of the main hall to speak. Those with less than 1,000 shi are not even qualified to touch the main hall door and can only stand.
I replied on the stone steps outside the hall, but this time, there were too many people, so it became a semi-open style, and there were not so many strict standards.
Of course, Liu Xie believed that this meeting was very successful, at least many people came.
Before the Salt and Iron Conference began, it was natural for the representatives of the village elders to present gifts to the emperor, and the Shaofu Taiguan Ling, on behalf of the emperor, to give wine and food to the presenters.
The second step, which is also a very interesting step, is that county officials from various places submitted atlases, and there are also atlases about China and the North...
The area that Cao Cao can control naturally does not include Guanzhong, but the Han Dynasty is still a whole in name, and Liu's airs cannot be overturned, so he pretends to send someone to represent Guanzhong, which is a very natural operation. In other words,
, in fact, Fei Qian was represented unknowingly, and it must be a traditional Chinese art.
In fact, since Emperor Guangwu, emperors have often held debates similar to salt and iron debates, either on scriptures or on current affairs. However, this was Liu Xie's first time, so he was a little nervous.
"Xi Xia was founded in the early days, but his Ph.D. is incomplete, his writing style has declined, and it is difficult to debate the scriptures. Now that everything has been established, the world is gradually becoming more prosperous, and it is time for outstanding talents from all over the world to absorb the talents of eight undeveloped countries, so as to revitalize the country, so I open this discussion..."
Although the words spoken at the beginning were all nonsense and lies, most people still listened respectfully, as if these words were true.
Is it really because Xu County was first established and it was difficult to convene such a meeting because of the lack of PhDs? Obviously not. Is it possible that the Han emperors in the past dynasties have regulations on how many people must be required for questioning and debate? Liu Xie wanted to do it before
However, Cao Cao was unwilling to let Liu co-organize it. As for why he was unwilling and now he is willing?
Haha, everyone actually knows that.
This is a compromise.
Just like the earliest Salt and Iron Theory, to put it simply, it was about the gentry and the court competing for interests, and Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty was willing to hold such a debate meeting, and the original intention was already very obvious...
Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty was obviously much worse than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty encountered such a situation, he would probably not be able to find the word "compromise" even if he searched through the dictionary.
Yes, the first Salt and Iron Debate was actually a comprehensive compromise meeting.
But this cannot be entirely blamed on Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty was the youngest son of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Originally, the throne would never be his turn. He only needed to eat, drink and have fun. After all, in addition to the one who died early, he had four older brothers, so it was normal for him to
He said that he only needed to be a happy seeder and then he could live a peaceful life.
Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty was said to have been pregnant for "fourteen months" before giving birth. Haha, originally everyone treated his mother Zhao Jieyu's performance as a joke, and even called Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty "Gou Yizi". They didn't take him seriously at all.
Player, otherwise there would not be such a title...
Then in the second year of Zhenghe, the famous witchcraft disaster occurred. Queen Wei Zifu and Prince Liu Zhi were framed by Su Wen, Jiang Chong, Han Shuo and others, so they couldn't explain themselves and raised an army. After the defeat, they committed suicide.
Then the drama of fighting for the crown prince began. Liu Dan, the third son of the emperor, was in a state of confusion. He was encouraged to submit a letter to become the prince. Naturally, he was slapped by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and hung on the wall. The fourth son of the emperor, Liu Xu, had long been abandoned. He couldn't be an emperor. The fifth son of the emperor, Liu Kun, was born to Mrs. Li and was also Li Guangli's nephew. Li Guangli and Prime Minister Liu Quya planned to make Liu Kun the crown prince, but it was exposed. After the incident, Li Guangli surrendered to the Huns and Liu Quya was imprisoned. Cut in half, the fifth son of the emperor Liu Kun also died soon after...
Ever since, Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty did nothing. With a bang, the throne fell in front of him in vain. Under such circumstances, the Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, in order to make his butt more secure, met with the court officials at the Salt and Iron Conference. , it is not surprising that the virtuous literati flirted with each other and jointly sold out the rules that his father had finally established.
After all, from ancient times to the present, I don’t feel bad if my son sells his father’s land.
From this perspective, the background of the witchcraft disaster may not be as simple as described in history books. Just like the background of the current Salt and Iron Discussion, it is not as pure as Liu Xie imagined.
In order to secure the throne, Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty threw out salt and iron, and gathered the aristocratic nobles who had secretly supported the princes to worship at his feet again. However, it also opened Pandora's box, causing the aristocratic nobles to gradually become landlords. , local separatism...
Liu Xie once again threw out Yantie, not because of any new policy changes in Yantie, nor because Liu Xie was really thinking about serving the country and the people. In addition to stabilizing his own position, it also included Liu Xie. Xie Xie wants to overcome Cao Cao's obstruction and win some people under his command...
I wonder which box will be opened in this salt and iron discussion?
Even if Liu Xie knew that he could open boxes, Liu Xie couldn't control this desire. After all, he felt that he was really a "lonely person". If this continued, I'm afraid he would really become cold. People's hearts would be scattered, and the team would become cold. Can he still be brought? Liu Xie needs popularity, needs to gather people's hearts, and needs to show that he is still the emperor of the Han Dynasty, so Liu Xie compromised. He could betray his name, his identity, and he even knew clearly that this meeting was basically The main target of the attack will be directed at Hussar, but he also has to do this, to integrate the people in Jizhou and Yuzhou for Cao Cao, and at the same time make some small moves of his own.
Because if Liu Xie didn't do something for Cao Cao, Cao Cao would definitely not agree to the convening. Although Cao Cao did not attend, he only asked Cao Pi to attend. There seemed to be some metaphors in the secret, such as "child's play", but he agreed to Liu Xie's convening. Behavior actually indicates an attitude and a compromise.

Cao Cao now has constant internal disputes, and the conflicts between Jizhou and Yuzhou are also very sharp, so Cao Cao also needs a harmonious atmosphere, at least to convert some of it, so even if Cao Cao knows in his heart that Liu Xie wants to use the Salt and Iron Conference to do something, But Cao Cao also admitted it.
Therefore, it is normal for people to go off topic while talking about salt and iron.
For example, to refute the "Qinglong Temple Theory" written by the Hussars General...
Originally, Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty were divided into two schools, ancient and modern, but now the hussar general Fei Qian put forward a slogan of "seeking truth and seeking truth", which suddenly caught both ancient and modern schools off guard, especially in Jizhou and Yuzhou.
The gangsters, they had no way to influence the Hussars, and they couldn't find a place to speak out for a while. When they were jumping up and down anxiously, Liu Xie stepped forward, so even if they were discussing salt and iron, it would not hinder the discussion.
Talking about other things, it should at least become a theoretical commanding height against General Hussars.
"The laws of our ancestors are the legacy of the saints..."
"How can you enter the elegant hall if you are a deviant?"
"It is definitely not the behavior of a gentleman to gain profits from the people..."
"Proclaiming the Dharma at the right time is the most important thing at the moment..."
"A clown cannot last forever..."
Almost everyone talked about current affairs, and then they suddenly discovered that after Guangwu, Jizhou and Yuzhou once again had common thoughts and similar foundations, and their goodwill towards each other suddenly increased.
Soga, it turns out that everyone’s goals can be the same!
Therefore, under the leadership of the great and wise emperor Liu Xie, with the help of officials loyal to the country such as Cao Cao and Xun Yu, and with the support of the vast number of people in Jizhou and Yuzhou, this time the salt and iron debate was temporarily abandoned.
After the dispute, a limited consensus was reached, which pointed out the direction for the four years of Taihan Taixing and its future development...
The emperor Liu Xie was very happy because he finally got a chance to play a positive role and successfully expressed his willingness to absorb more "talented people" in front of the elders of Jizhou and Yuzhou townships to work together for the great cause of the rise and rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty. He
He only compromised "a little bit", but now he has stepped from behind the scenes to the stage! This is a small step for Liu Xie, but a giant step for a man!
Liu Xie smiled, even if he wanted to laugh, he still tried his best to maintain the dignified image of the emperor.
Cao Cao, well, the Xiahou clan of Cao Cao represented by Cao Pi was also happy. Seeing the increasingly tense disputes between Jizhou and Yuzhou, it seemed that they could put it down for the time being and unite to fight against the red devil, uh, the three-color Piao.
Qi, how can you not be happy? Although Liu Xie has taken the lead, the power of the court is still in his hands, and after overcoming the current difficulties, isn't it possible to deal with it how to deal with it?
Cao Pi smiled like a fool, but his little eyes kept moving around.
The representatives of the noble clans in Jizhou and Yuzhou were naturally happy. They successfully demonstrated their strength. Although it still required some effort, the emperor Liu Xie and the Cao family and the Xiahou family understood the truth. They could not do without the support of the nobles in Jizhou and Yuzhou.
Yes, without the support of the Jizhou and Yuzhou gentry, can the Han Dynasty do it? Can the Cao family do it? Therefore, the Jizhou and Yuzhou gentry are no longer one or two separate families, but a whole group of interests, and can legitimately fight for the interests of the gentry.
!So they are happy too.
The elders of the gentry township in Jizhou and Yuzhou laughed and flattered each other, saying "you are good, I am good, everyone is good."
After going around, it seems that everyone only needs to compromise a little bit to gain a lot of happiness...
The atmosphere inside and outside Deyang Hall was peaceful, with laughter and laughter everywhere.
Such a joyful atmosphere is undoubtedly rare. Even the palace guards who were on guard outside could not help but glance at each other and became a little happy.
The guards standing in the square outside Deyang Palace seemed to feel a little more relaxed in their hearts. After all, their job was to protect the emperor Liu Xie, but they had to violate such duties under certain circumstances...
Not everyone has the psychological quality to do Infernal Affairs. So when the imperial guards heard that everyone in Deyang Palace seemed so happy, some people thought that maybe there would be less bullshit in the future? Maybe they wouldn't have to be so embarrassed in the future?
While these guards were thinking about their better life in the future, suddenly an inexplicable strong wind swept over, causing sand and rocks to fly in the square, and even almost blew their helmets off, and suddenly tore off the flags above their heads.
Gotta be straight!
Perhaps the ropes tied to the Han banners were worn out and had not been replaced in time, or perhaps the sudden strong wind was so strong that they could not bear the force. One of the flags actually snapped and the ropes snapped, and then they watched helplessly.
The flag with a big "Chinese" character written on it floated away with a "whoosh" in the strong wind...
