The first thousand two hundred and twenty-sixth section arrangements
After Yang Yi left, Liu Che received a piece of news that made him dumbfounded that someone had rebelled again!
Why say again?
Because he has encountered no fewer than fifty armed rebellions in the six years since he took the throne., Chinese, novel...
There are farmers, landowners, officials, and even nobles.
Some of these people really have no choice but to survive unless they rebel.
Take for example the righteous deeds of the people of Zhangqiu back then.
Regarding this kind of thing, Liu Che's attitude has always been to send ministers to investigate and determine the truth!
As long as the people don't rebel against him as the emperor, he will definitely be willing to uphold justice!
However, such examples are, after all, in the minority.
The more rebels are just idiots who drank too much fake wine and became confused.
Don't underestimate such a second-rate person...
In Chinese history, 80% of the rebellions were started by them.
Although, most of the time, these people don't cause any problems and the local militias are enough to suppress them!
But in the past two years, a new force, the witch god stick from the Wu Chu region, has joined the rebel camp of the Han Empire.
Because Liu Che airborne a large number of capable officials from the central government, they directly entered the local area, destroyed mountains and temples, eliminated people's superstitions about witch gods and witchcraft, and at the same time killed a large number of schistosomiasis, built water conservancy projects, and popularized Guizhi decoction and Pueraria lobata decoction.
Such a cheap and effective anti-wind and cold medicine.
This seriously harmed the interests of local witches and magicians.
Therefore, these people often instigate local foolish women and people to rebel.
Although, the end is usually that within three days they will be suppressed by the militia and government officials led by the county captain or Youyou.
But this time, things were different.
The county captains of Zhuji County in Kuaiji County rebelled...
The county lieutenant stormed into the county government office with his own soldiers and cronies, killed the county magistrate, and then rebelled.
What kind of god-general does he claim to be, and what kind of divine kingdom do he want to establish?
It’s just that he is mentally ill and seeking death!
Therefore, he was chopped into pieces by the local scholar-officials and militiamen.
The heads of all his followers and the heads of the witch who had bewitched him were sent to Wu County, the seat of Kuaiji County.
If this matter had not been related to rebellion, Kuaiji County would not have reported it at all.
However, this incident still sounded the alarm for Liu Che.
Things like witchcraft and cults must be cracked down with all our strength!
Think about it, even high-ranking officials like the county captain can be brainwashed and deceived.
So, if we can't completely destroy their foundation while they are still in their infancy, then in the future, these guys will definitely become a scourge for future generations.
Liu Che's attitude towards cults has always been to kill them if they catch them in the toilet, hang them in the fields if they are caught in them, and hang them in the fields if they are caught in the market!
Because, cults are cancer of mankind and antagonists of civilization.
Cleaning up and destroying them is what any normal ruler must do.
With this idea in mind, Liu Che thought for a moment and then asked Yan Yi to be called over.
"I am going to appoint you to inspect Chu State, Jiangdu State, Kuaiji County, Changsha State and other areas on my behalf..." Liu Che told Yan Yi: "On this trip, you will summon the local county magistrates on all the county roads you pass.
, the county lieutenant and the three elders express my intention clearly: All alchemists, sorcerers, witches, and magic sticks must report to the government, obtain permission from the county magistrate or above, and register with the county before they can move, otherwise they can be regarded as
Those who worship obscenely and worship obscenely will be killed without mercy!"
"After you go down, you must tell the local elders and scholar-bureaucrats clearly what I mean!"
Liu Che knew very well that witchcraft or superstition could not be banned.
Not to mention him, not even the dynasty of later generations would be able to ban it.
The reason is very simple. People always seek spiritual sustenance.
After all, Liu Che can't uproot all religions and beliefs in the entire southeast, right?
That's unrealistic, let alone impossible.
Therefore, instead of letting the local chaos continue, it is better to integrate the local witches and magicians.
Anyone who is willing to be Liu's dog will be rewarded with a bowl of rice, allowed to perform some traditional local rituals, and collect some incense money. However, they must not be allowed to confuse and deceive the people outside to rebel or believe in any discerning people.
At first glance, you can tell it's something from a cult.
And the magic stick witch who doesn't want to be a dog will naturally kill them all!
In this way, the local problems should almost be solved.
After all, this method is one of the divine weapons of the Celestial Empire.
When Yan Yi heard the words, he immediately bowed and said: "No! I respectfully obey the imperial edict!"
He knew very well that this might be his last chance.
Last time, he failed in Maoling and disappointed many people.
It even caused rumors in the court that he had fallen out of favor.
This made Yan Yi very uneasy.
He is by far the highest-ranked Confucian scholar except Shusun Tong.
If he fails, then the entire Confucianism will collapse because he will prove the formula that Confucian scholars are equal to corrupt Confucians and are equal to being unable to do things.
Therefore, this time, he must go all out.
"Ai Qing, please prepare. After Shiqu Pavilion, leave the capital!" Liu Che waved his hand.
This is the advantage of hundreds of schools of thought coexisting.
The emperor does not need to rely on scholars of a certain school of thought, there are many choices.
Scholars from various schools must compete with each other.
This creates a very large space for Liu Che to utilize.
If this were not the case, then I am afraid that many current policies would not be able to be implemented.
After sending Yan Yi away, Liu Che suddenly thought of Zhang Tang.
Zhang Tang has been in Nanyang for four years.
It's time to recall him to Chang'an to report on his duties.
This is not only to hear Zhang Tang personally report on the progress of the local heavy industry base in Nanyang, but also to hear the opinions of the people of Nanyang on this from Zhang Tang's mouth.
This is important!
It can even be said to be related to the future construction and development direction of China's heavy industry.
Because, in China, if you want to develop industry, the biggest problem and obstacle is not the scholar-bureaucrats or the ideological and public opinion circles, but the support of the common people, which plays a decisive role in the success or failure of industrial development!
In addition, Zhang Tang must be further assigned construction tasks for the next four years, and Zhang Tang must be asked to recommend a successor.
In another four years, Zhang Tang had served as the county governor in Nanyang for eight years.
Fully qualified to serve as Jiuqing
With this in mind, Liu Che ordered his surroundings: "Draw up an imperial edict and summon Nanyang County Governor Tang and County Lieutenant Cheng to Beijing to report on their duties!"
"No!" Someone immediately responded respectfully.
After finishing this matter, Liu Che walked to the center of Shiqu Pavilion to speak to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager.
However, as soon as Liu Che left, the news that Zhang Tang was about to return to Beijing spread among the entire Lantai Shang Shulang.
For many people, Zhang Tang is a legend! (To be continued.)
