Dividing it into four places is indeed a very good idea.
This concept can provide a forward direction for the governance direction of officials. Coupled with some subsequent detailed projects, local officials can have a clearer understanding of their own positioning and goals.
For the Han Dynasty, especially for officials who were conscientious positions, having such a guiding goal could indeed make some officials work hard in this direction.
As for the other part of the officials, basically speaking, there will be no change...
Fei Qian asked Fei Zhen to get the Theory of the Four Places, not really to let the three people read the article, but just to move Fei Zhen away to prevent the military order from being leaked.
Some can be observed, some cannot.
"Order!" After Fei Qian dismissed Fei Zhen, he ordered in a deep voice, "Gongda is responsible for mobilizing the money and grain in Guanzhong to reserve for the refugees. He has appointed Liao Yuanjian as the grain escort officer and will send it to Longyou one after another."
Xun You agreed.
"Wenhe recruited Xiqiang Huqi and gathered in Jincheng to train in preparation for the need." Fei Qian said to Jia Xu.
Jia Xu smiled slightly and nodded, "I accept your order."
"Shi Yuan, in the name of Shangshutai, calls General Wenyuan to Beijing." Fei Qian issued the third order, "Li Mancheng is ordered to take charge of the military affairs in Hanzhong."
Pang Tong's eyes moved slightly and he nodded in agreement.
Fei Qian took a breath, and then said in a deep voice: "In addition, opening up new territories is a great achievement of the country, and any crime that is not a major treason can be reduced."
The three of them, Xun You, looked at each other with different expressions.
This is a very important point, and it is also Fei Qian's guarantee for many generals who are worried about their own future.
Likewise, this is Feiqian's promise to many people.
This point must be made clear.
Fei Qian believes that it is very necessary for soldiers to be given special preferential treatment after retiring from the army.
Other ordinary professionals are also hard-working, but there are some things about the military profession that are different.
On the one hand, what soldiers learn during their career is not general skills, but technical skills on how to kill people, or how to kill people more efficiently. This makes retired soldiers better than those who leave other professions in a certain way.
It's even more dangerous.
On the other hand, the sacrifice of the military profession is greater than that of ordinary professions. Of course, ordinary professions also have work-related injuries and so on, but if soldiers are killed or injured, it may not necessarily be a percentage, but the death of the organization, so the sacrifice and
Gains should be compensated equally to some extent.
The more you pay, the more you will gain. This is an invisible rule that a society relies on for survival and sustainable development.
If this rule is broken, or even ordinary people feel that this rule has expired, it will mean the intensification of monopoly, the rigidity of society, and the decline of the political system, which will eventually lead to the demise of the entire dynasty.
Therefore, for a country, it is necessary to maintain preferential treatment for military personnel. Once the treatment of civil servants exceeds that of military generals, it will naturally guide more people to the path of civil servants, making the series of military generals who expand territory increasingly
Reducing it may lead to the entire country focusing on civil affairs over military affairs and lax armaments. The final result can be imagined.
This preferential treatment must not only be given in words, but must also be implemented in practice.
If we just put up a window with the words "military priority" written on it, but it is actually closed for a long time, and there is no one on duty, then it is better not to make such a window, and the impact will be slight.
Lu Bu undoubtedly made a contribution to the development of the Western Regions.
Fei Qian's meaning is also very clear. Lu Bu's previous achievements cannot be erased just because Lu Bu has problems at the moment.
This is Fei Qian's lowest level logic, and he also wants to instill it into Chinese culture and change China's habit of winning and losing, and the next one trying his best to undermine the previous one.
This is a very bad habit.
The first person to be hacked was King Zhou.
King Zhou was very unreasonable on this point.
Although Yao, Shun, and Yu in ancient times were not so kind and friendly when they succeeded to the throne, at least the new king did not deliberately discredit the previous one after he succeeded.
The first person to do this was the King of Zhou. After all, the King of Zhou came from a propaganda background, and he was very skilled at smearing King Zhou of Shang.
In fact, King Zhou of Shang is quite smart, very powerful, versatile, and proficient in various aspects, including music, art, and literature. Of course, he also likes to play, otherwise he would not be proficient in so many things.
.
King Zhou's defeat of Zhou was the first time that his ministers dared to use large-scale force to attack the monarch.
In other words, before, it could only be regarded as "forcing the palace", while the King of Zhou was "conspiracy to rebel".
As the first person to dare to challenge the monarchy, he must have been constantly beautifying his own image. Let others think that King Zhou of Shang and the entire dynasty are at the end of their days, and God's will is for them to perish. To create such an illusion,
Naturally, this king of Shang Zhou needed to be punished to death.
It is very simple to overthrow King Zhou of Shang alone, but it is not so easy to overthrow the orthodoxy that continues the imperial court. In addition, it must be recognized by the people, which is a very troublesome matter...
But during King Zhou's reign, did he make no contribution to China and society at all?
In fact, there are quite a few.
King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty abolished the slave burial system and began the process of liberating slaves. At the same time, he also conquered the Eastern Yi, eliminating the disaster caused by the Eastern Yi to the Yin and Shang Dynasties. Most importantly, King Zhou conquered the Southern Barbarians and successfully expanded the territory of China to
The Yangtze River Basin promotes the blending of northern and southern cultures.
Of course, Emperor Xin did this not necessarily for the sake of the Chinese people, but to consolidate his royal power.
Emperor Xin first issued a decree clearly stipulating the separation of church and state, but this completely offended the theocratic group. Since the reform was strongly opposed by the old aristocratic forces, these guys gave up their jobs, so Emperor Xin simply appointed inferior people who were not slaves.
People from different classes and slaves came to serve as government officials at all levels, breaking the hereditary control of the nobility and allowing class mobility to occur in society.
Isn’t it very similar to the big man now?
In addition, as the founder of China's basic territory, Emperor Xin played an indispensable role.
The enfeoffment of the Zhou Dynasty was actually more conservative, while the Shang Dynasty, which was blackmailed by Chengxiang, was a history of wars between merchants and surrounding ethnic groups. The Shang Dynasty had always opened up new territories, and the one who made the greatest contribution was Emperor Xin
During the reign of King Zhou, the culture of the Central Plains gradually spread to the southeastern region, and the Yangtze River Basin also became a member of the Central Plains civilization during the reign of Emperor Xin.
It's just that the wars between King Zhou and Emperor Xin were too frequent, which resulted in an excessive burden on the country, which was somewhat similar to that of Yang Guang later.
Not only the King of Zhou and the Black King of Zhou, but also the most vicious King of Zhou in later generations, of course The Romance of the Gods. As soon as this book was published, King Zhou was sealed in the coffin.
Although it is said that since ancient times, the history of successful kings and defeated enemies has been mostly written by the victors, but starting from the king of Zhou, it did lead the wrong way for subsequent rulers.
From ancient times to the present, every disruptor will find a suitable excuse for his behavior before defeating his opponent, and then rack his brains to say all the bad things about the current incumbent. Therefore, King Zhou wants to demonize Emperor Xin more than anyone else.
When he raised an army to destroy the merchants, in order to prove to the world that he was the right person and the wrong person, he went through the eight generations of Emperor Xin's ancestors. Finally, he even thought of ghosts and gods, and finally listed six crimes for King Zhou Emperor Xin...
…
This habit still exists in the company where Fei Qian works even in later generations.
When a new leader comes, the first thing he does is to completely veto the previous measures. Even if he says some good things about his predecessor on the surface, saying that he will inherit and carry forward the measures, he will soon find out that in fact
What was done was quickly undone and overturned by the current leaders.
The original development was halfway through, and even the branches that were about to succeed were laid off and personnel were transferred. Then all the early investment, human, material and financial resources, etc. were all wasted. There were thousands of reasons for the abolition, but in fact there was only one real reason.
This is the merit of the previous term, not the current one.
waste?
who cares?
Even the King of Zhou felt that his capture of Shang was like pie in the sky. He quickly divided the surrounding princes into enfeoffments, saying that no one should rob them. I only want this piece, and you can take the rest.
The formation of a unified China has been delayed for eight hundred years. So if we calculate it this way, starting from King Zhou's crusade against King Zhou, this habit of smearing the previous leader has led to thousands of years of repeated construction in China, and how much wasted
Manpower and material resources?
Therefore, this habit of taking office under the guise is really not good.
Didn't Lu Xun say that we should use doctrines, and then there is a person whose name has been blocked, who said that we should take the essence and discard the dross.
Fei Qian feels that this habit of taking office under false pretenses is rubbish.
Now Fei Qian's attitude is that Lu Bu has made contributions to the Western Regions, and this contribution belongs to Lu Bu. Just because of his chaotic behavior in the Western Regions does not mean that the achievements in the Western Regions are nothing compared to Lu Bu's...
One code should be used for one code, not the person but the matter.
Merit can be used to reduce or reduce the amount, but of course the merit must be recognized. If even the merit is rejected and erased, how can there be any reduction or exemption?
The meaning contained in this was clear to the three people present.
But not all the three people present supported Fei Qian.
"In this way, there are many people who are proud of themselves and do wrong." Xun You couldn't help frowning and said, "There are many things wrong with the eight arguments. If my lord makes this argument, I am afraid there will be trouble in the future. I think it is inappropriate."
Pang Tong said: "What the lord said is not the eight opinions, but the military merits!"
"Only for military merit?"
It becomes empty talk..."
What Xun You said is indeed true.
China also has this habit. The top said to open a hole, but the bottom dared to dig out a three-bedroom and one-living room. Fei Qian said that military merit can offset the guilt, but it is impossible to say that in a few years, everyone, even his own unborn baby, will have it.
"Military merit"...
Jia Xu also nodded, and he did not agree to offset the merits from the crime.
Jia Xu is the most familiar with this kind of tactics, such as stealing chickens and dogs, stealing sheep and fishing in troubled waters, so he can best understand what kind of people will appear if such a hole is opened. There is no telling when even a three-year-old child will appear.
He can have dozens of meritorious deeds for killing enemies and taking heads!
Just like the children of later generations of writers can publish poetry collections at a certain age, or primary school students can publish cancer medical papers...
When I checked it out, he said that he loved his children too much and made some small mistakes.
Is it wrong to love children?
Isn’t it said that the old and the old are the same as the old and the young, and the young and the young are the same as the young?
How can a person who doesn't even love his own child love other people's children? Right? Then he can cry and shout that his child is innocent and ignorant, so he should be innocent!
This kind of problem is really disgusting and a headache.
Pang Tong couldn't help but frown. Pang Tong understood Fei Qian's idea of improving, but at the same time, like Xun You and Jia Xu, he also understood the trouble that might be caused after the issuance of such a law, so he was a little confused for a moment, not knowing what to do.
How to say.
Fei Qian chuckled, "Quinzi wrote a treatise on the four places, which is acceptable... But what he wrote before was nonsense... So should I be scolded or should I be rewarded?"
All three of them were stunned.
Fei Qian said meaningfully: "Everyone in the world knows not to give up eating because of choking, but why do they often give up eating because of choking? Since there is a risk of choking, just treat the consequences of choking. How can we go on a hunger strike because of this?"
Are you afraid that solving the current problems will create new problems, so you don’t even move or solve the current problems?
All three of them fell silent. After a moment, Xun You bowed his hands and said, "What my lord said is true. Please accept my instruction."
During the discussion, Fei Zhen came back excitedly, bringing with him the "Theory of Four Places" he had written.
Feizhen had no idea that he had become a model case.
As a half-year-old child, it is already considered good to be able to elaborate on some of his own ideas in a relatively broad way, formulate words, and find evidence to prove his arguments. Fei Qian puts a lot of pressure on Fei Zhen in his daily life, but he also
We will give Feizhen some honor and use this to solidify some of Feizhen's thinking patterns.
The hard work paid off in exchange for pleasant rewards.
Because The Theory of the Four Earths was completed by Fei Zhen independently, Fei Qian specially asked Fei Zhen to take it out and receive praises from three big bosses.
The three bosses not only praised Fei Zhen in various ways, but also put forward their opinions on some issues in Fei Zhen's Theory of the Four Places. This was very useful to Fei Zhen. Her little head was nodding, and she concentrated on listening to the memory.
.
It was peaceful for a while, and the murderous atmosphere in the meeting hall just now was completely gone.
After a while, the three of them retreated and went about their business.
For the entire Western Region, as long as the worst predictions are made, there doesn't seem to be much to worry about. The arrangements made by Fei Qian, based on the abilities of Pang Tong, Xun You, Jia Xu, etc., are basically
Everyone was able to understand it clearly, but Feizhen on the side was a little confused, "Father, this matter in the Western Region...is this all?"
Fei Qian smiled and said, "Why is it like this? What do you think it's going to do?"
Feizhen said: "I thought... either sent troops to attack, or sent people to arrest Lu Fengxian..."
Fei Qian frowned slightly, "Don't you think Lu Fengxian's success in conquering the Western Regions and repeating the trade route was successful?"
"What merits does he have? These are all the merits of my father!" Fei Zhen said loudly, "Besides, even if he has merits, wouldn't he be given the position of Protector of the Western Regions? Are there any previous rewards?"
"Hey..." Fei Qian looked at Fei Zhen, "I didn't expect you to have the potential to be a capitalist..."
"Where do you come from?" Feizhen didn't understand.
The capitalists of later generations often say this, I paid you a salary, I gave you a position, I gave you a stage to show yourself, so you have to be willing to 996, you have to be extremely grateful, you have to...
"Well..." Fei Qian was silent for a while, "Let's just say, you wrote this article well, right?"
Feizhen laughed twice, "Well, I think it's okay."
Fei Qian nodded and said: "Then can I think that all your articles are good? Including your previous articles and the articles you write after you should be very good? They should all be of the same level as this article? If it is not reached,
At this level, I should scold you or even hit you, because you did write a good article before?"
"Ah?" Fei Zhen said with wide eyes, "How can this be done?!"
Fei Qian nodded and said: "That's the article, what about people? Do you judge the quality of a person because of a certain thing? Do you judge the quality of a group of people because of one person in this group of people? You can see it at a glance.
Quan Bao, what you said is not wrong, but you clearly need to see Quan Bao, but you go to get a glimpse... What is the problem? When mistakes occur, is it because of things or people? Bad people will do good things, and good people will do bad things. So the key
What is it?』
Feizhen was stunned, then frowned and started thinking.
"So, you can just do it if you like, and get out if you don't. There are many people in the world anyway, right?" Fei Qian chuckled twice, "If we don't have Lu Fengxian, how about we find Pei Fengxian?"
"This..." Feizhen was a little dizzy, but she also understood that what he said before was a bit one-sided.
It has to be said that the propaganda methods of later generations of capitalists are still very powerful, so that some ordinary people who have no brains will automatically and spontaneously begin to empathize with capital, saying that it is not easy for others to open factories and build platforms. Having said that,
Capitalists also hope that the more brainless ordinary people the better, so they will encourage brainless people to attack, contaminate, and create derivatives.
"The original intention of rewarding merits and punishing demerits and balancing merits and demerits is to allow those who have made merits to be rewarded and those who have made mistakes to have the opportunity to correct their mistakes," Fei Qian continued, "This itself is a good thing, but later people
These mistakes have been made... You must know that some merits are not worth a reward. Similarly, some faults can be compensated, but some faults cannot be compensated..."
Fei Zhen seemed to understand.
"To put it simply, the Western Regions is like an article... If you write it casually, it is still an article. If you write it carefully, it is also an article, but there are good and bad distinctions between articles..." Fei Qian laughed.
He smiled and said, "Do you understand?"
Feizhen nodded, "I understand!"
Fei Qian just smiled and said: "Now that you understand, you should try to write an article!"
"Ah?" Fei Zhen's smile suddenly stiffened, "Western Region? Or merit or demerit?"
Fei Qian nodded, "merit and demerit. But if you want to write about it, you might as well write about both..."
Walking out of the meeting hall, Fei Zhen scratched the back of her head a little irritably, and even wanted to give herself a mouthful.
