Liu Bei doesn't understand this at all. In fact, Liu Bei rarely discusses this with Chen Xi. Anyway, I don't understand. You, Chen Zichuan, can create and do whatever you want. As long as the country needs money for something, it will be fine. For the rest,
What does it have to do with me, Liu Bei?
In short, this mentality is very good and stable. Because of this mentality, Liu Bei has no idea that there is no money in the treasury. In the Han Changan Bank, except for the copper needed for coinage in the fourth year of Yuanfeng and the special paper that Chen Xi brushed with large amounts, there is nothing else
There is nothing.
But don't say Liu Bei didn't see it. Even if Liu Bei saw it, he didn't think he was out of money. He didn't see that there was still so much copper to mint. There are still so many large-denomination coins that are equivalent to hard currency. How could there be no money?
Money, this is just the beginning of the new year, it hasn’t been created yet!
When the auspicious time comes, the court meeting is different from other court meetings that can be moved to the afternoon. The first court meeting at the beginning of the year represents the vitality of the country, so Liu Tong still wants to save face and does not dare to say that it will be moved to the afternoon.
, started when it was still dark.
But it only happened once a year. For the sake of prosperity and health in the coming year, Liu Tong still endured it.
After the official audience, Liu Tong and Si Niang came out together. After five inspection procedures, such as identity check, light and shadow spell check, stand-in check, etc., it was confirmed that they were the eldest princess and Si Niang. After the official meeting, Liu Tong took his seat.
There was no way. Ever since he almost opened up Cao Siqing's head, Liu Tong had to go through a series of inspections when he went to court to avoid fakes or substitutes. And at the new year's court meeting, there would be tributes from foreign countries and princes.
The gift, if this is a fake, then the regent will really be replaced.
But fortunately, maybe Liu Tong and Si Niang knew that it was impossible to avoid the first court meeting of the new year no matter what, and for the sake of the royal family's face, they still needed to think about it carefully, so they were indeed coming in person, so naturally they checked in five ways.
It should be passed, and all officials expressed satisfaction with it.
In fact, the central ministers of the Three Gongs and Nine Qings have very low requirements for Liu Tong, just don't mess around. After all, the country is rich now, and anyone who sits on it can do well. The government of Yao and Shun, to put it bluntly, doesn't it mean that all people are safe?
, and to put it bluntly, to calm the people, doesn’t it mean that the money and food are in place? Now that the money and food are in place, if the officials do a better job, all the problems will be solved.
Naturally, the three ministers, nine ministers and the central ministers did not have many requirements for Liu Tong. Apart from asking Liu Tong to improve his moral quality, study more, not to cause trouble, and at most one of them could study with the imperial concubine, there were not many other requirements.
Require.
This is just as Chen Xi expected. There will be an emperor sitting on top, and the group of people will look for trouble. There will even be censors holding chicken feathers as arrows to directly remonstrate on trivial matters.
If there is a princess sitting on top now, there is nothing we can do. If you talk too much, Liu Tong must have said with a bleak expression that I can only do this level. Don't ask me like an emperor. If you really want to work, give it to me.
Find a professional and let me see what I can do.
In addition, Liu Tong learned a set of fault-finding methods from some famous official in the Qing Dynasty, which is what Chen Xi said back then. Although I don’t know how to correct these problems, I can find them. I’m really worried. Liu
Tong began to discuss the matter, finding faults little by little.
As the saying goes, it takes a lifetime to learn well, but only three days to learn bad. Liu Tong is not stupid, and he still has great righteousness. Those ministers who can withstand Liu Tong's constant fault on one thing have high combat effectiveness and will not care about these details.
If you go to the level of deliberately provoking Liu Tong, naturally over time, Liu Tong will get better.
Liu Tong looked at the ministers below with a smile. He had nothing else to do today, just paying tribute and giving gifts. These will not be returned to the treasury. To be honest, Liu Tong has not seen the treasury until now, but that is not important.
,The important thing is that everything I receive today is my own, no matter whether it is a tribute from a foreign country or a gift from a prince or minister, it is all my own.
Chen Xi glanced at Liu Tong, who was smiling happily, and said nothing. It was agreed at the beginning that you would take all the tributes, and all the return gifts and gifts would be paid by the Ministry of Rites from Chen Xi, which means that at this time of year
These are the times when Liu Tong is happiest collecting money.
Even if Liu Tong's expenses are reimbursed by Chen Xi, and Chen Xi is lax and always gives materials but not money, it seems that Liu Tong will not need the money, but compared to receiving money from Chen Xi, it is still
It makes people happier when countries pay tribute.
"Everyone has something to report in the morning," Liu Tong said loudly. He didn't even say that he just ignored him and retreated from the court. He was here to receive gifts. If he didn't get the gift, why would he retreat from the court?
In fact, there is nothing to report at the court meeting on the first day of the new year, because the last court meeting at the end of the year has already said the same thing. If we want to say something different, other dynasties will talk about singing and dancing at the end of the year, while Qin and Han will talk about it. Let’s cut it this year.
Whoever I killed, I plan to kill him next year, make a plan, and fight together when the time comes.
The court meeting a year ago had almost made it clear that the number one target of the Han Dynasty in the fourth year of Yuanfeng was Kushan. Guard the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges, farm, store grain and grass, build cities, wait for the opportunity, and then kill Kushan. It's that simple.
rough.
As for other singing and dancing matters, there was no discussion, and no report was made about where the turmoil was. Basically, the core is Guishang, no matter which family you are from, or which teacher you studied Confucianism and Legalism.
, in short, during the court meeting at the end of the year, there was no idea of benevolence and righteousness at all, and everyone was focused on how to deal with Kuishang.
It can be seen that all the ministers hope that Guishang will be on his way as soon as possible. In my mind, the last guy who made the Han Dynasty so united was called the Xiongnu. He had been with the Han Dynasty for three hundred years and finally went to Hexi four years ago.
.
To be honest, the Xiongnu did not walk peacefully at all. In the northern Xinjiang, they were still locked by the four princes, who locked their necks and captured their arms. It took most of the effort to nail the coffin board.
It was burned down and almost turned into a corpse.
But it can be regarded as solved. The Han Dynasty lost a big enemy. The Han Dynasty was still a little bit sad about this. But looking at the various cavalry that they had organized, they felt less uncomfortable. Although the Huns were dead, their unique skills
The Han Dynasty finally succeeded and became an important force in the Han Dynasty. This is just like the Mo family died and the inheritance was divided by others in minutes.
Is it painful? Not at all. On the contrary, those who have received the inheritance are very happy. As for the one who ascended to heaven, they have all gone to the west, so why should they suffer!
Now Kuishang is also in the same situation. All the ministers are waiting to absorb the nutrients of Kushan. They hope that Kushan will die tomorrow, so they show their unity. Chen Xi is deeply satisfied with this. This kind of mentality and this kind of mentality are needed.
Awakening, so much so that the imperial meeting at the end of the year almost turned out to be no matter how Kushan was concocted, and the whole thing seemed shameless.
Later, I may have felt that what I said was a bit too much, so I used Zhou Rites and Shuowen to cover it up. Simply put, benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust are for people, barbarians are not human, the barbarians in the south are from Min, and the Di in the north
Follow the dog, the raccoon dog from the east follows the chicken, and the Qiang from the west follow the sheep. What kind of benevolence and righteousness do you mean?
In the end, Kuishang was forcibly identified by this group of ceremonial officials and historical records examiners - Guishan was a descendant of the Dayue clan, and the Dayue clan was a Qiang-Di hybrid. Come on, he was no longer a human being.
In short, Chen Xi admired these old men very much. By the way, these old men actually managed to find some artifacts from the Shangtang period, and also dug out some supporting artifacts, confirming that the merchants had indeed migrated.
At this point, Liu Yu and others had greatly increased their confidence. All that was left was to verify whether this group of people had moved to Europe. Although Chen Xi dismissed this speculation as nonsense, there were still people in Rome who were interested in this.
After all, it is quite strange that two countries so far apart look similar. Black hair and black eyes are relatively rare. Even the circle next to the Central Plains is not exactly like this, and the European side is even worse.
, looking in all directions, they are all barbarians with colorful eyes.
Therefore, after the Han Dynasty conducted research, those in Rome who had nothing to do also followed suit. Now the Roman Senate has basically confirmed that their ancestors should have migrated from Asia Minor, that is, their ancestors were at the junction of Europe and Asia.
After the two sides checked the information, their confidence increased greatly. Although Chen Xi always felt that Rome was seeking death by going to Asia to investigate the source, it was simply unreasonable for the empire not to seek death. What's more, you couldn't stop someone who was seeking death, so Chen Xi said
He went with those old men.
To be honest, Chen Xi estimated that with the integrity of these old men, at some point, they might actually falsify important evidence. After all, Confucian students have some sensitivity to education and culture. As for the follow-up of this matter
Influence and all, at this age, they really don't mind if they can bring down another empire.
As for clearing one's name, clearing one's children and grandchildren and having enough to eat, how important is it?
Therefore, Chen Xi turned a blind eye to the research of this group of people, whether it was successful or not. Anyway, the disadvantage was definitely not our Han Dynasty. The Romans themselves went to Asia for research. If the Han Dynasty did not make you the only one since ancient times.
There's something wrong with the brain.
Trying hard to get these things out of his head, three years have passed since Yuanfeng Dynasty. In these three years, Chen Xi has managed to build up the road network of each state and county. More importantly, Chen Xi has finally built up the road network of each county.
The county's financial rights were returned to the central government.
Compared with the situation in the past when each country became its own country, economic integration can now be considered completed. Although it is only an upper-level economic integration in an abstract way, it has indeed been completed through the integration of resources, so we can barely talk about it now.
money.
In the past, Chen Xi just glanced at the taxes reported from various places and threw them aside. Not talking about the issue of greed or not, many of them were consumed locally due to repetitive needs, and this kind of thing was not large-scale.
It’s about giving money to maintain the industrial structure!
