In the Han Dynasty's rule of society, the role that a minister can play is amazing.
If a county, if Zhidu is a county magistrate like this, in the short term, he will make the place without closing the door at night and not picking up the leftovers. This is just a level that he can reach after a few months of taking office, and if he is not very good, he will not be able to do so.
If a qualified county magistrate comes, the bottom state is basically terrible.
The state of Xiao He when he was the prime minister of the country was completely different from that when Zhang Cang was the prime minister of the country.
The same is true for Chao Cuo. He had already had a huge impact on the Han Dynasty as soon as he served as the Third Duke.
His full-scale attack directly changed the direction of the Han Dynasty. Officials who were unwilling to test the law were all adjusting their policies, for fear that Chao Cuo would catch the handle.
At the end of the court meeting on this day, the ministers watched the three duke leave, and then slowly surrounded Lu Jia, wearing his shoes calmly, his face was not very good. Lu Jia's face was also quite ugly.
His left and right deputy were arrested by Chao Cuo, and even he himself was punished and his fief was reduced by 300.
The ministers' patience with Chao Cuo seemed to have reached a certain limit.
This guy is really not a human being. Liu Jing seems so kind to him. This is definitely the worst three-month man in the history of the Han Dynasty. He almost stares at everyone. No matter what your origin or title you have, he will
To deal with it, he had almost no difference between his own people and outsiders in his eyes. He even arrested Zhang Buyi. Even in the eyes of the ministers, Zhang Buyi should be in the same group as him, and Liu Jing was just
When arresting big merchants and powerful men, Zhang Shizhi was just unable to get along with the royal relatives, but this person didn't care about your identity at all.
He dismissed many people, and more and more people went to Longxi to work labor.
The officials in Qin were not as cruel as him. Based on the principle of "small things turn into big things and big things abandon the market", Chao Cuo made the temple panic and uneasy.
"Mr. Lu, you can't indulge him like this anymore. If he is addicted to catching people, he will continue like this, and we will all gather in Longxi."
A minister stood in front of Lu Jia, lowered his head and put on his shoes, and said calmly.
"Don't worry. I already have an idea."
"Let's bear it for a while, let this guy continue to be arrogant first, sooner or later he will suffer."
Lu Jia said, put on his shoes and strode away from here.
During this period of time, Chao Cuo was basically responsible for the court discussion. His Majesty has been very busy recently. It is said that Shangfang has created a brand new glass. His Majesty ordered them to put this thing in the palace and say that they should first.
Use it to test it out and see the benefits and harmlessness before it can be used by the people of the world. That's what he said, but of course the ministers knew very well, what else could this thing have?
I just want to use it as a decoration for myself first!!
Zhang Cang is also very busy. It is said that Shang Fang used the glass to create a new thing that could be seen far away, and even alarmed the Taiwei. Zhang Xiang wanted to view the astronomy, while the Taiwei wanted to use this thing to see the enemy.
His Majesty also stayed with him all day long. His Majesty is different from them. His Majesty mainly wants to use this thing to peek at the beauty on the road.
Zhang Buyi has been very busy recently, always in and out of Shangfang, but he is always mysterious and secret, and the ministers don’t know what he is busy with.
The matters in the temple fell directly into the hands of the lunatic Chao Cuo, which was undoubtedly a disaster for the ministers.
At this moment, sitting in the magnificent Censor's Mansion, Chao Cuo looked proudly at the people in front of him.
The people in the Censor's Office have basically been replaced by Chao Cuo. He has activated many newcomers. What kind of virtues are those who Chao Cuo appointed? You can know without saying it. Just say that his current confidant is also Chao.
The one who was specially selected was Zhao Yu, who was from Youfufeng County. He was famous when he was young. He then worked as an official in Chang'an and was appreciated. He entered the Censor's Office. After Chao Cuo discovered this person, he followed him.
After talking for a few hours, he was overjoyed and thought that he had real talent, so he promoted him directly to the position of Zhongcheng and soared into the sky.
And this person is basically a small trumpet Chao Cuo.
He is very honest and lives in a very simple house.
He was extremely arrogant and offended his boss many times, and did not deal with anyone, and almost offended everyone who could offend him.
He was harsh in law enforcement and never knew what it was to show mercy.
Most of the people promoted by Chao Cuo were people of this kind. Chao Cuo used them to form a brand new Censor's Office. After the birth of this Censor's Office, it showed amazing destructive power, making Chang'an full of chickens.
Feigouzhao, the playboys didn't dare to come out before, but the Wuding Tower was empty, and basically no one dared to go over the fifth floor. They found all the impeachment that was suppressed by Ji Bu and went to the second
After the impeachment, the Censor's infamy suddenly reached its peak.
At this moment, Chao Cuo looked at the memorial in front of him and couldn't help but ask: "How is it? Did they ask?"
"I've asked, and I've also proved a lot of people."
"Very good. I'll arrest the person they testified for for trial! There is no need to meet the Tingwei regularly! If the Tingwei comes to ask, it must be guilty. The people who ask for in the future will be arrested and interrogated!"
"only!!"
Zhao Yu lowered his head and said yes, then asked again: "Mr. Chao. These are all Zhang Zuoxiang's people, should we?
"What are you afraid of?! So what about Zhang Buyi? He is a third duke, and I am also a third duke!!"
Chao Cuo said, suddenly remembered something and said, "Of course, don't move the people from the Taiwei Mansion."
"Others! Don't pay attention to their identities!!"
"It's best to find evidence of their collusion with the outer king. Remember, the outer king is what we should deal with!"
"only!!"
In Zhang Cang Mansion, Liu Changzheng held the telescope made by Shangfang and looked at the distance stupidly. Zhang Cang sat aside and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty. Have you had enough fun? I still want it."
Han Xin was also here. Looking at Liu Chang who dared not do serious things, he snorted coldly with dissatisfaction.
Liu Chang then put down his telescope and sat proudly beside him, "This is my masterpiece. With this thing, you can see the stars at night and the widow during the day."
Zhang Cang said seriously with a stern face: "Isn't I such a slutty person?"
"That's right. You usually take action directly, so how could you go and see it secretly?"
"The world was in chaos before, and there were many lonely people who could not make a living. As the prime minister, I raised them personally, raised their children and treated them as my own children. But I didn't expect that it would cause such controversy. I was bad.
Fame! But for the sake of the great righteousness of the world, why should I cherish this pure reputation?!"
Liu Chang looked at Zhang Cang with some admiration and couldn't help but sigh: "Teacher, I really admire you and I don't accept anything. I just accept your serious nonsense. When will I reach your level?
”
If he hadn't been very clear about the teacher's character, Chang Liu would have almost believed it.
However, Zhang Cang said that raising many orphans was true, but that was definitely not his real purpose!!
Zhang Cang stroked his beard and said seriously: "If you have the world in your heart, you will naturally be able to achieve this state of mind."
Han Xin couldn't stand it anymore.
Zhang Cang's level of governance is indeed very high. After he became the prime minister, the Han Dynasty basically ran wildly. Grain production is higher than one year, the road is increasing continuously, and various places are closely connected, and business development is Gundam.
,Agriculture is booming, handicraft industry is rapidly expanding, county schools are spread all over the country, clinics appear in every corner of the Han Dynasty, most officials are wise, capable ministers frequently appear, and literary style is prosperous. He almost does everything a national minister can do.
It's even overdue.
Nowadays, while writing the calendar, Zhang Cang is still doing many things together, such as multiple canals, the storm connecting Yan State, and the canal in the south.
Apart from his weak power in the temple, this person is basically no different from Xiao He in terms of ability, but Han Xin still doesn't like him. Although he has good abilities, compared with Xiao's private morality, he is simply a dog-like arrow.
Han Xin doesn't like such people who suffer from personal morality. He thinks that such people are not real heroes.
Zhang Cang was not close to Han Xin either, and the relationship between the two sides was still in a good way and did not violate the river.
Perhaps because he noticed that Han Xin was a little unhappy, Liu Chang did not continue to say anything, and handed the telescope to Han Xin. Han Xin held the telescope, first weighed the weight, then stood at the door and tried the function, and threw it on the ground.
After trying the degree of solidity, Liu Chang felt a little distressed when he looked at it.
"Teacher, please fall gently, this thing is not as strong as mine."
Han Xin asked: "Can it be made on a large scale?"
"Of course. Although the cost is a bit expensive, with glass, no problem. I can ask Lu to sell glass. After I install glass for the palace, the ministers will definitely follow my example. I want to sell the glass to them at a high price, and then
We have money to make telescopes. Teacher, I can’t wait to decorate the palace with glass, not to satisfy my own selfish desires! It’s not to be greedy for enjoyment. I just want to play a propaganda role and to sell more for the powerful and powerful.
Some glasses are exchanged for wealth to make telescopes, but people in the world always misunderstand me, causing controversy, and ruining my reputation. So what if I suffer a little grievance for the sake of the world's righteousness?!"
Liu Chang frowned and said that he was very righteous.
Zhang Cang's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but shout, "Okay, it's already 70%!"
Han Xin ignored the two sluts and just lowered his head to grop his telescope, muttering: "This thing is good and can play a great role. Unfortunately, it cannot be used at night."
"Teacher, this is the role of Shangfang. As long as you can support Shangfang in the temple, even if you praise a few words, they will definitely be able to make a telescope for you at night in the future!"
Han Xin sneered, said nothing, and got up and left with the telescope, as if he didn't want to stay for a moment.
Zhang Cang stretched out his hand and wanted to say something, but could only watch Han Xin leave.
After Han Xin left, Zhang Cang breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but say, "The Grand Marshal is here, which makes people feel very stressed. You should have a telescope there, right?"
"Yes, I'll send another one later."
Zhang Cang looked at the door and said, "Recently, Chao Cuo has become more and more over-the-top. Chao Cuo has a rebellious personality. If you want to use him, you have to control him more. Let him do whatever he wants.
Big problem.”
"But after he took office, the administration of officials in various places improved a lot, at least he didn't hear any grievances among the people anymore."
"Of course he will get better when he catches this way. However, if you blindly enforce the law strictly, you may cause bad results."
"You'd better send someone to stare at him, so that he can't do anything randomly, and Zhang Buyi is a good candidate."
"Yeah, I understand"
Liu Chang replied vaguely, and Zhang Cang was also helpless. This disciple of his family has always been eager for quick success and instant benefits and does not like trouble. Now Chao Cuo's way of cutting the mess with quick sword is just in line with Liu Chang's characteristics. Unfortunately, this
The temple is not a mess, and it is easy to create big problems with such a one-size-fits-all approach.
Zhang Cang seemed not very concerned about the affairs of the temple, but in fact, he knew everything.
"Teacher, you don't have to worry. Chao Cuo cannot cause any major problems, and I have made sufficient preparations."
Liu Chang squinted his eyes and looked a little sinister.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!! Do you really care?!"
"The Mo family is making a big splash, and the scholars of the entire Imperial Academy are now going to vote for them!"
"For a few days, the Mo family actually accepted more than 300 disciples!"
Wang Gao stood in front of Liu An impatiently, wandering back and forth, and his whole body was extremely angry.
Since the Mohist family made a big splash in the Imperial Academy last time, the Mohist family's popularity in the Imperial Academy has surpassed Mr. Huang. After all, the more than 20 marquis brought a lot of shock to everyone. From that day on, the Mohist class
It became overcrowded, and the Mo Jing became the most popular reading material in the Taixue School. You can hear the words of the Mohist school without a king or a father everywhere. Confucianism was very angry, and Huang Lao was even more angry. This was openly speaking to us.
The first thing to show off your studies is provocation!
The Mo family stole so many disciples, but except for some schools that had no disciples, the other schools were very anxious.
When Wang Gaohuo came to the door in a hurry and wanted to discuss this matter with the prince, the prince looked very casual and didn't care about it at all.
Liu An looked at Wang Gao's impatient look with a smile, "Don't worry, you should sit down first and have tea with me."
"I still have tea? If we don't think of a solution, we have to follow the Mo family and eat dirt!"
"Hahaha, not."
"You can take a look at this article first. It was written by me recently."
Liu An took out a few pieces of paper and placed it in front of him. Wang Gao sat down suspiciously, picked up the paper in front of him, and looked around with his head down.
The grief and anger on Wang Gao's face frozen in an instant. He looked at the content in his hand in a daze, and read it repeatedly several times.
"This is."
"This is my Huang-Lao's basic science and applied science theory."
"I named it "Science."
"This science is the past genius, and science is the statement drawn up by my father himself."
"I, Mr. Huang, first discovered the subject of science. The Mohist school was just separated from us, and in essence it was ours. Why should you worry that the Mohist school will come up with a new theory?"
Liu An said with a smile.
"Instead of arguing with them, it is better to help them improve their knowledge. After all, it is their own thing. It is our right to do a favor."
Wang Gao was stunned, what a guy, you copied this really fast!
As soon as they finished speaking, you copied it and compiled it into Huang Lao's ideological system.
Suddenly, Wang Gao felt that the Mo families were not so hateful.
“This knowledge is actually pretty good.”
"Of course, the prince doesn't have to find a way to hinder the Mo family, but instead needs to help the Mo family more and let them come out with more good things. In this way, I, Mr. Huang, can go further. What do you think?"
Wang Gao chuckled, "Your Highness is right! Chen Tao is a wise man. He can actually carry forward my Mr. Huang's academic career to this level!"
Seeing Wang Gao so well-informed, Liu An couldn't help laughing. Then, he said seriously: "Prince. I want to write a book, this is just one of the contents. The book I want to write will be the Huang-Lao School.
The total chapter of this book covers all things and summarizes the essence and inner qualities of all schools. Once this book is published, it will completely make Huang Lao the foundation of the Han Dynasty. All schools will become my Huang Lao’s help to help them learn better.
The more you will be, please go back and tell those people, so that they will not compete with any school, and do their best to help them develop their own knowledge."
Wang Gao was a little excited and asked hurriedly: "Can you give this book a good name?"
"The Great Han Honglie"
"Senior brother, what the Mo family said is right. The principles of the world must be applied to the world. Only such principles can be considered useful. Why can't we learn from them?"
Hu Wusheng frowned and said seriously: "Zhongshu, you have gone astray and do your research. You are not saying that anyone is better, just copy it directly. You want to go out of your own path to the essence of our Gongyang School.
Even if you study for a lifetime, you may not be able to study thoroughly. Why should you focus on the achievements of others?"
"The role of knowledge is practice. Good knowledge can be practiced better. If it cannot be used for practice, why would I spend my whole life studying the theory of the ram?!"
Dong Zhongshu said seriously: "The Mohist school today lacks political propositions. We can completely absorb their useful knowledge, turn them into a part of Confucianism, completely absorb them, and make them into a part of us."
"Zhongshu!!"
Hu Wusheng was a little angry, and he said unhappily: "You have read so many books on weekdays but haven't learned the most important truth? The Mohist knowledge of having no king or father is opposite to Confucianism. How can you absorb it?
Woolen cloth?"
"Aren't our current knowledge born after learning from many schools of thought? Why can't we learn from our ancestors?"
"Then wait until you reach the height of your ancestors, and then think about this matter!"
Hu Wusheng finished speaking angrily and turned around and left here.
The young Dong Zhongshu frowned and fell into deep thought again. Liu Ci couldn't understand what they were arguing about, but just looked at them curiously.
Dong Zhongshu suddenly looked at him, "One day, I will prove that I am right!"
"The sea embraces all rivers. Only by annexing all schools, using them for the kings, and working hard for the world, can Confucianism become the most prominent knowledge in the world!!!"
Dong Zhongshu suddenly grabbed Liu Ci's hand and said seriously: "One day, I will definitely swallow all of them!!"
Liu Ci was stunned, then raised his head and screamed:
