What's more, with such a large area of land in the Western Region, the slightest movement will naturally cause some of the settled dregs to start to move.
It is better to block than to loosen.
This is the wisdom left by Dayu.
This is also the underlying logic behind Feiqian’s strategy.
Forced containment may be useful, but it can only be said to be temporarily useful. It is like the suppressed public resentment in the feudal dynasty. It may not cause any problems for a long time, but once it breaks out, it will
It will lead to the collapse of the entire feudal dynasty.
Several great dynasties in Chinese history eventually collapsed due to the accumulation of public dissatisfaction. When the people lose confidence in their country, it is undoubtedly the most dangerous moment for the country.
If the allusions in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period did not attract the attention of the Chinese people, then the execution of the Second Emperor of Qin was at least not the first time that this problem occurred, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the Eastern Han Dynasty...
Things happen again and again, and then you can continue to cover your eyes and pretend that the problem does not exist?
Now Fei Qian pulled off the blindfold.
Fei Qian knew this was a big problem.
Because he knows, he thinks.
Because he thinks more, he tries to do more.
He made suggestions, but now he is also looking for solutions. This is a fundamental change after he came to the Eastern Han Dynasty. In later generations, he also had different opinions and was full of complaints, which he would complain about on the Internet.
He talked nonsense, criticized this and accused that, but at that time, he only had opinions and no suggestions.
Now he took a step forward.
This step was not easy, but Fei Qian still gritted his teeth and walked down.
But the problem is that some people have obviously had their blindfolds taken off, but they still put them back on themselves...
In Qinglong Temple, some people are now criticizing Fei Qian.
Some people were walking along with Fei Qian's steps, but they were scolding while walking.
Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and curse.
"This is the fault of the hussar!"
A young man from the noble clan cleared his throat and made a grand appearance.
He is wearing a pale yellow robe, with a square face and smooth beard, red lips and white teeth. On his head is a gold silk scholar's crown produced by Jinlufang in Chang'an, which is a small Jinxian crown with the beams and pillars removed, and the edges are outlined with gold wire.
, quite dazzling. There is a Western sachet hanging on the waist. On the surface of the sachet, there is a graceful dancing figure of a Hu girl embroidered with silver thread, sparkling in the sun. There is also an inlaid jade buckle on the belt, plus a gold-painted fan in the hand.
Fanning it now and then, it looks a bit more elegant and suave. Just looking at the appearance, it really looks like a banished immortal.
This man's face was full of grief and pity, and then he shouted at the top of his lungs, "How pitiful God! The people in the Western Regions are suffering so much! This is all the fault of the hussar! What a shame!"
As soon as such a high-level talk came out, it naturally attracted a large number of people to gather here.
There are few entertainment items in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Everyone is very happy to watch the excitement.
"Young! Isn't this Brother Zhang?" Someone recognized this person and said hello, "Why is Brother Zhang... dressed in an unusual way today..."
The scholar Zhang coughed and said, "As the sages say, don't judge people by their appearance! Clothes are the only way to go. I came to Qinglong Temple today because I wanted to discuss with the sages what is the right way to go about a country!"
There is a price to be paid for being shiny...
This outfit certainly doesn’t come cheap!
Mr. Zhang's heart was bleeding. If he rented a set of clothing like this, he would not ask for a deposit. The rent for five days would cost 5,000 yuan!
Spending a thousand dollars every day as soon as he opened his eyes was almost killing him, like cutting off his flesh. The pain made him gnash his teeth, and he hated the hussar even more!
Damn Hussar, why don't you arrest all the vendors who sell goods at high prices? Don't the Hussar know that these merchants sell their goods at such high prices? Since the Hussar knows, why do the Hussar still allow them to sell their goods at high prices? This is all
Hussar's fault!
Yes, he doesn't have to rent, but what can he do? He thinks that he wants to attract attention and win more likes. If he doesn't dress more sparkly, how can anyone see it? How can anyone notice if no one is watching?
Is he excellent in his heart and full of knowledge?
In order to wear this outfit, he lived frugally...
Just for today!
Seeing that more people had gathered, Zhang's cheeks turned slightly red. He pulled his neck and slapped his gold-painted fan in his hands, "Everyone! Today I was watching the sky one night and saw the Greedy Wolf star in full bloom! This is a military disaster.
This is a sign! It should be applied to the Western Regions! How pitiful God is! The people of the Western Regions have not been in peace for a long time, but they have suffered another misfortune! Wow! Our people are so unworthy and so miserable!"
As soon as this statement came out, many people followed him with emotion.
Mr. Zhang suddenly felt happy in his heart, and even put on a sad expression on his face. It is righteousness to be the first to win!
As long as you mention the common people, you will be three points safe!
"The Western Region is in chaos, the caravans are cut off, and the economy and trade are blocked, which is especially a small loss..." Mr. Zhang patted his golden fan to increase his momentum with his words, "It is a great regret for the people who moved to the Western Sea!"
The people suffered such misfortunes and were displaced. Their families were destroyed and their lives were destroyed! It was so tragic! Every time I think of this, my heart is as sharp as a knife..."
The scene became somewhat quiet.
The people gathered around Zhang Shizi looked around, as if they were looking at the performance of others to decide what expression they should adopt. It was obvious that they were not very sympathetic to what Zhang Shizi had just said.
Naturally, there was no group of people sighing after Zhang Shizi, which made Zhang Shizi's originally prepared speech somewhat stuck and unable to speak.
"Uh..." Mr. Zhang's eyes swayed from side to side for a moment, and then he understood a little. The gentry disciples surrounding him were all young. Perhaps they had not yet felt the separation of life and death, or perhaps they did not care about the more basic Guizhou leaders.
, how come you have any special feelings about the life and death of the people in the Western Regions?
What they care more about is money...
Because there have been problems in the Western Regions during this period, the prices of various commodities in the Western Regions have been rising, which has resulted in these gentry children having to spend more money to obtain the same things from the Western Regions as before. They need to hold cultural meetings,
To buy new clothes, you also need to drink fine wine and ride a horse. There are many places to spend money. Now that you have more money to spend on Western Region products, you will naturally have less money in other areas, which makes these nobles very unhappy.
Mr. Zhang's eyebrows moved, and he quickly changed his strategy, "There is chaos in the Western Region, and people's livelihood is in decline! Prices of goods are soaring, and all weapons are inflated! If this continues, it will do great harm!"
"That's right, isn't it!"
"Brother Zhang is right!"
This time there was a response, and there was chaos for a while.
Who can't make a fuss? Just say a few words, and it doesn't cost money anyway. Especially Zhang's words touched their hearts. It's hard to make money these days, but it's easy to spend. It's not easy to live in Chang'an, and the money brought from home is pouring out. When it goes out, I don’t have much income. Logically speaking, since I can’t afford it, I should control my own desires. But the question is, who wants to control their own desires? Why can’t others control it? I still want to eat, drink, have fun, and have fun. Spend less or even no money and it would be perfect.
"Things from the Western Region are too expensive now!"
"The spices have quadrupled! What a money grab!"
"Yes, yes! Even the barbaric women from the Western Regions are...well, what do you think I'm doing?"
"..." Everyone was strangely quiet for a moment.
"Everyone, everyone!" The Zhang family saw that the building was a little crooked, so they quickly pulled back, "Today's chaos in the Western Regions was caused by Lu Fengxian's rebellion! And who is Lu Fengxian? He is a martial artist from Bingzhou! I don't understand the reason. How can such a person be worthy of such a big responsibility if he is greedy for enjoyment?! Since he is useless, the hussar just appointed him as the protector of the capital. Do you dare to ask who is at fault?"
Everyone made an uproar.
This angle is so sharp...
And it does seem to make sense to say so?
"Now that the Hussar is taking charge of Yongliang on behalf of the emperor, he should be very cautious. How can he act emotionally? In the current chaos in the Western Regions, the Hussar has some faults that some people do not understand! This is one of them!"
Seeing everyone starting to discuss, Mr. Zhang felt even more proud.
"Secondly, since Lu Fengxian was appointed and there was no supervision, it was left to him to do whatever was wrong in the Western Regions! Since the Hussar is the head of the officials in Xijing, he should have the responsibility of reminding, correcting, supervising and stopping him. But why should the Hussar do this? This is the fault of Hussar's indulgence!"
"Now the world is gradually becoming peaceful, and the local area has not been alive for a long time, how difficult it is! But the Hussar clearly knew that Lu Fengxian had done something wrong in the Western Regions, but he failed to deal with it in time. As a result, the lives of the Western Regions are now in ruins, and the people are miserable! How innocent the people are! This is the Hussar It’s just three mistakes!”
"Now Mr. Zheng is ill, and there is no one to give him direct advice! Although I am not talented, I cannot bear to see the restlessness of the Western Region and the unrest of my three assistants! I don't want to see the people in distress, and the people of Li are hanging upside down! I don't shy away from the mistakes of the hussar and the mistakes of the minister! So I speak out today. And remonstrance is directed at the fault!』
"Everyone, everyone!"
"Someone has a piece of advice, please listen carefully!" Seeing that the time was ripe, Mr. Zhang took out a scroll full of words from his arms, unfolded it with trembling hands, and read aloud, "Today there is chaos in the Western Region. The people should speak out! Execute the traitors and sycophants as soon as possible to clear up the affairs of the Western Regions! It is beneficial to the affairs of the country, and loyal words will not be spared! How can the hussar be allowed to do harm to the country? The ruins of border affairs are all due to the unclear rewards and punishments for merits and crimes! Rewards and punishments The reason for the unclearness is all due to Lu’s mistakes in his duties! The faults in his duties are all due to the hussar’s lack of insight!”
"It means! It is not surprising that the Hussar holds great power, and the ministers are obedient. However, after Zheng Gong, there is no one who can directly give advice! The officials in the Western Regions are afraid of Lu Fengxian's power and speak cautiously. They are afraid of Lu's poison and harm themselves. , Ning was depressed all day long, and did not dare to speak openly and openly! He only obeyed Lu's orders in everything, and did not dare to stand upright and fight for the people. Therefore, although he was robbed by Lu Fengxian's accumulated prestige, he could not be said to have done anything wrong with the Hussar. It is also!"
"Appeal! It is not surprising that the officials in the Western Regions are afraid of the power of the Lu family. However, with the ability of the hussar, their intelligence and decisiveness, how can they not be aware of their hidden evils? The hussar tolerates what the Lu family hates."
, if you can’t know, and if you can’t go, you can’t protect the Lu family’s dignity, so you can tolerate it and treat others at their own risk. However, if you don’t know that the Lu family is in the country, it is like the weeds in the seedlings, and the tigers in the city.
If you are in power, it will be a disaster for a day! Why can't Husband bear to eliminate one traitor and endure the misery of millions of people?"
"The nature of the grassroots people is arrogant and upright. They are born in the sky and cannot be changed. They learn loyalty and righteousness. They are learned from the scriptures and cannot be destroyed! Every time they hate the thieves in the world for doing trouble, they can't sleep peacefully! Today I have advice. I don't seek to be praised and praised, but just for fame.
To quell the people's grievances is to calm the hearts of the people! If you are interested, you can go with me to General Hussar's Mansion and write a letter of direct remonstrance!"
Go to Huqi Mansion to submit a letter?
Playing so hard?
Immediately, everyone's eyes lit up, and even the good people who saw the excitement did not mind the big deal. Suddenly they burst into cheers, which made Mr. Zhang feel even more proud. Amidst the roaring waves, he raised his neck as if he was immediately
It's like becoming a fairy and ascending to immortality.
……(′^ω^`)……
There was a lot of noise in Qinglong Temple, but Youwensi in the city was busy but quiet.
Pang Tong and Kan Ze sat opposite each other, looking through the relevant information collected by Youwen Division over the past period of time.
The leader must withstand more wind and rain.
Just like when wild geese line up, the wild goose that is always the leader needs to have a stronger body, a sharper sense, and a tougher endurance. It needs to find the direction and determine the journey. And the current leader of the Xijing political group is undoubtedly
It’s Fei Qian, so naturally there are more winds and rains and more burdens on him.
All Pang Tong, who was following Fei Qian, could do was to reduce Fei Qian's burden as much as possible so that Fei Qian could focus more on the choice of direction.
In fact, many people know that Dahan's political system actually has problems. But knowing the problem and being able to solve it are always two different things. Just like most people know that they are short of money, but they can say
Once you know the problem, will the problem of lack of money be solved immediately?
Money is printed by the state.
So the lack of money is the fault of the country?
After all, the country also knows that some people are corrupt and bend the law, and that there is inequality between rich and poor in some places, right?
In fact, many problems are intertwined with each other. If you solve one of them alone, it is still difficult to avoid the short board effect, and water will still leak out from the shortest side.
Land was the greatest source of interest for the feudal dynasty.
The landlord class was the driving force and the greatest resistance to the feudal dynasty.
The Emperors of Yan and Huang discovered that the value of land far exceeded that of cattle and sheep, so they joined forces and beat up a group of surrounding children, and then beat away their boss, and finally established their status in the Central Plains of China.
That's right, since the creation of words in ancient times, "position" has been used, rather than heaven or person.
If there is no place, is there any room for shit?
Not giving away an inch of land is a rule passed down by the ancestors of China. This rule is completely incomprehensible to the surrounding nomadic peoples. Therefore, the transfer of land by the big pigtail dynasty does not pose any problem to their ideology.
Because they are still dreaming about it, thinking that even if they sell it temporarily, they will come back in the future...
And these guys don't understand that the universe is huge, but there is only one earth.
The status of a feudal dynasty is the amount of territory it occupies.
If possible, Fei Qian hopes that the flag of Han Dynasty can be planted in every corner of the earth.
This work cannot be accomplished by Fei Qian alone.
Therefore, the western, northern and southern territories that Fei Qian is currently exploring are actually, to a certain extent, experimental fields.
Maintain it carefully and observe carefully.
Instead of planting randomly and doing things half-heartedly.
Pang Tong can understand this.
And Pang Tong also really saw the new changes under Fei Qian...
The Chinese feudal dynasty, or the country with the county system, could maintain its upward development, continue to advance outward, and continue to expand and grow, which was inseparable from the efforts of the landlord class. However, due to the limitations of productivity, they were also limited to the village.
Heshang believes that only land that can grow food is useful, and he dislikes other land that cannot grow food.
So when Fei Qian expanded the current Han people's concept of land and expanded the concept of land, the land that was originally useless in Pang Tong and many Han people's concepts, the land that could not be cultivated and planted, can now be used
It can be used for grazing, mining, resource gathering, etc.
There are gold mines in the Northern Desert and they have been mined.
There are gold mines in the Western Regions and they are being mined. The Sima family has been contracting them for twenty years.
There are mountains of gold and mountains of silver in the East China Sea.
There are gold mines, silver mines, iron mines, copper mines in southern Xinjiang...
If you have money, you can make a millstone go round. Then having more gold and silver can make a millstone go round.
Fei Qian broke the shackles in the minds of Pang Tong and others, and also showed an incomplete, not detailed, but already tempting enough world map based on the Classic of Mountains and Seas...
This raised the upper limit of the Chinese landlord class.
The nobility system raised the lower limit.
A new landlord class is emerging.
The rise of more industries has made the emerging landlord class in China realize that there are more ways to get rich than just relying on the crops on the land. With the rise of industries and the development of the economy, these are also increasing.
The increased demand for labor by the landlord class will naturally increase the importance that the ruling class attaches to the grassroots population.
Why did most feudal dynasties always show preferential treatment to the grassroots people and the rulers were very friendly to the people in the early days of most feudal dynasties? Because at that time, population was a scarce resource. With the stability of society and the development of population, those who were once in the
The good people described by the rulers will naturally become untouchables. There are more people, limited jobs, lower employment rate, more refugees, lower salary levels, people dare not consume, industrial development is hindered, more people are unemployed, and more refugees
,lower salary...
As Fei Qian forced these landowners to look away from the land that could only grow Zhuanghe, they now gradually discovered that other industries can also make money, not to mention gold, silver, copper and iron mines, wood can be used
Bamboo can be used for construction, bamboo paper and gold-painted fans, livestock can be used to provide meat, and it can also be used to make blankets, sweaters...
Everything is changing, either roaring or moistening silently.
But there are always some people who are unwilling to do so, or have other ideas.
"This is Wenyuan's move in the Western Region..." Pang Tong put down the information at hand, "What do you think, Derun?"
In the past, Pang Tong was mainly responsible for the Wen Department, but now it is left to Kan Ze. Generally speaking, Kan Ze is similar to Li Yuanfang. Pang Tong would ask Kan Ze about his attitude and views on certain things from time to time, and use this to
To measure or determine whether Kan Ze followed the direction pointed out by Fei Qian.
After all, the position of the Youwen Division is not big, but it has great authority.
Kan Ze said in a deep voice: "Zhang Wenyuan killed people to save people."
"Oh?" Pang Tong pinched his chin, "You..."
Before Pang Tong could finish his words, there were hurried footsteps from the outer corridor to the front of the hall.
"Report! There is a son of the Zhang family in Qinglong Temple. He has gathered a group of scholars and wants to go to the Yamen of Huqi Mansion to write a direct remonstrance on the affairs of the Western Regions!"
