Chapter 260: Sixian Garden and Reform

Shanglinyuan. Worth your collection..

Liu Che stood on a hillside and looked around the world.

At this moment, Liu Che felt a generous feeling in his heart to point out the country and inspire words.

"Family..." Ji An held a lot of bamboo slips, documents and decrees, stood beside Liu Che, and said: "According to your majesty's edict, starting from this mountain, it is thirty miles long from east to west and fifteen miles wide.

All mountains, lakes, salt ponds, rivers and lakes will be your Sixian Garden!"

Liu Che nodded, feeling extremely proud in his heart.

This Sixian Garden was given to Liu Che by the emperor after Ji An and Yan Yi entered the palace yesterday as a place for activities and entertainment, as well as a place to make friends with the world's heroes or have parties.

In the Han system, one mile is three hundred steps, one step is six feet, and one mile is approximately 1,800 feet.

From the Zhou Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty, there was almost no change in this weight and measure.

Basically, one mile at this time is approximately 400 meters in later generations.

In other words, Liu Che's Sixian Garden is a behemoth with a length of 12 kilometers, a width of 6 kilometers, and a total area of ​​72 square kilometers.

Liu Che looked forward and saw the vast plains in the distance. There were faint smoke curling up from the valleys. Farther away, there were mountains and rivers with peaks and lofts looming among them.

This place is a Feng Shui treasure!

Liu Che just took a look and came to this conclusion.

"In the future, many things can be moved here!" Liu Che thought in his mind: "We can also move some important scientific research projects here, such as papermaking, engraving, coinage, and even... the black technologies that will be discovered in the future.

!”

Liu Che's 'Sixian Garden' is located on the south bank of the Wei River and is surrounded by other places in Shanglin Garden. At twelve o'clock every day, the garrison troops of Shanglin Garden will conduct uninterrupted patrols.

It is impossible for people without permission to enter here.

Compared with the past in the royal estates and workshops, both confidentiality and safety are undoubtedly a qualitative improvement.

The only thing that may lead to leaks is the people living here...

Don’t think that there are no civilians in Shanglin Garden...

The Shanglin Garden of the Han Dynasty has a circumference of three hundred miles and stretches endlessly. It is almost equivalent to a small vassal state.

For such a big place, the royal family cannot afford so much.

Therefore, as early as the time of Emperor Hui, Shanglin Garden was opened to the common people. Some civilians with permission were allowed to enter Shanglin Garden to farm.

The land cultivated by these people is fake land.

In fact, it is renting seeds.

The Han Dynasty court often leased some land in Shanglin Garden to landless farmers in Guanzhong and military widows for farming.

For example, when Xiaozhu later became emperor, he liked to hunt. He often led his men on a rampage in Shanglin Garden, trampling on farmers' seedlings. The farmers were not good men and women, so they scolded him on the spot. It is recorded in the Historical Records:

In the land of rice and rice, all the people shout and curse.

Then, Xiaozhu was scolded and did not dare to retaliate. He could only look back to King Wuqiu Shou angrily to expand the scale of Shanglin Garden, and then set aside many forbidden areas.

In addition, the livestock industry in Shanglinyuan is also very developed.

According to what Liu Che heard in his previous life, there were thousands of horses and countless cattle and sheep in the entire Shanglin Garden.

For example, Xiaozhu's later minister Bu Shi was promoted like a rocket by raising sheep for Xiaozhu in Shanglin Garden.

At this time, except for the royal hunting grounds designated by the emperor as well as the royal estates and palaces, the entire Shanglin Garden was open to the people of Guanzhong.

Everyone can freely enter and leave Shanglin Garden for hunting, mining, and fishing by relying on the roads issued by the government. If you want to cultivate the land in Shanglin Garden, you can also apply to the government and after approval, you can get a fake field for farming.

Therefore, Yang Xiong later said in "Yu Lie Fu": The palaces, pavilions, terraces, ponds, gardens, and forests are sufficient to serve the suburban temples, entertain guests, and serve as cooks. They do not take away the people's anointed crops, soil, and mulberry trees.

place.

Therefore, the royal garden of the Han Dynasty, Shanglin Garden, was not a large-scale, countless area, but a place restricted only to the royal family as people of later generations imagined.

In fact, from the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty to its demise, this place was actually a place where both the emperor and the common people could come and go.

It's just that the interrogation is more stringent and the security checks are more extensive.

The Shanglin Garden of the Han Dynasty and the Old Summer Palace and the Summer Palace of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties are two different concepts.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there are common people in Liu Che's territory.

In fact, there are quite a few!

Liu Che walked along and saw many people working in the fields.

Nowadays, it is the critical period when the corn is about to be harvested. Many people, almost all their families, are mobilized. The elderly can help pull weeds, the young and strong can turn the soil and water, and the children can help with weeding.

Get started.

Liu Che looked around and found that the conditions of many people were not very good. Most people did not even have a complete piece of clothing on their bodies, and most people's clothes were full of patches.

"Ji Qing..." Liu Che stopped, turned around and said to Ji An: "According to Gu's order, Gu's Sixian Garden will be exempt from land tax for three years starting from this year!"

This land was given to him by the emperor. Naturally, he could decide everything on the land.

For Liu Che, the hundreds of farmers in Sixian Garden can only pay him a land tax of more than ten or two hundred thousand yuan a year (the tax on fake land is not 30 yuan per year, which is basically only less than 10 yuan per year).

The land rent for landowners is less, or even the same), and Liu Che can't stand the money now.

It's better to use it to win people's hearts.

At the same time, it can be regarded as one of the things that the princes of the Han Dynasty will definitely do after being installed.

"No!" Ji An nodded and wrote it down.

"In addition, I would like to post a notice. All the people concerned, who have less than five thousand years of age, who have less than one strong labor force in their family, and who have been injured in the army, are allowed to herd deer in Gusi Xian Garden and buy deer seeds."

, when the deer has antlers, sell it for money and then come back alone, let’s consider it as rent for five cents a day!” Liu Che ordered.

This trick was learned from Xiaozhu.

In his previous life, this edict issued by Xiaozhu was one of several far-sighted edicts that Liu Che admired.

Never underestimate the benefits of raising deer.

After Xiaozhu promulgated this policy in his previous life, the income from deer raising in Shanglinyuan was accumulated in a steady stream. Guess how much this income reached by the time of Emperor Yuan? Seven billion!

It was this money that was used on Chen Tang's expedition.

Otherwise, Chen Tang wouldn’t say anything like, ‘Anyone who openly offends a strong man will be punished no matter how far away’. Without money, it’s a waste of time to fight!

"No!" Ji An nodded and wrote it down.

The purpose of establishing Shanglin Garden in the Han Dynasty was completely different from that in the Qin Dynasty. Shanglin Garden was not just a place for recreation in the Han Dynasty, it also shouldered huge social responsibilities and public welfare responsibilities.

As the saying goes, "The state-owned suburbs are pastoral. The frontiers have hope. There are grass beds and forests and ponds, so they can prevent disasters."

To put it simply, whenever a disaster occurs, Shanglinyuan is basically a temporary settlement and resting place for the victims.

At the same time, it is also the responsibility of Shanglinyuan to provide relief to social orphans and raise orphans.

For example, Xiaozhu later had an elite army called the "Orphan Army". They were all selected from orphans who lost their fathers in the war against the Huns. They were all raised in Shanglin Garden and received military training while raising them.

Therefore, Liu Che's order is very reasonable.

As a prince, he now indeed has the confidence and ability to carry out some activities such as raising hopes.

Therefore, Ji An didn't think too much.

How could he know that raising and raising deer could make such a small amount of money?

"It's really an investment that will bring benefits for countless years!" Liu Che thought about the little pig's deer-raising policy and clicked his tongue a few times.

This policy is indeed very quick.

Liu Che didn't even need to spend money to grow deer, so he asked Ju Meng to go to Shanglin Garden to catch a few hundred deer alive. In Shanglin Garden, it was estimated that there were still several thousand deer...

Then, because they are rented to the people for grazing, so. Once the lease period is up, these deer will return to his hands, and maybe a few fawns will come with them. In this case, they can be rented out again...

A chicken lays an egg, and the egg lays a chicken. Decades later, this income snowballed to nearly the Han Dynasty's financial income of one or two years...

It’s hard to believe just thinking about it!

But then again, the people these days are really simple and honest...

Liu Che scratched his head, thought for a while, and felt that it was a bit unethical to copy the little pig's behavior, so he added: "Also, tell the person who rents the deer that when the deer is born, it will be his!"

Before Liu Che traveled through time, he was just a commoner. He was well aware of the hardships faced by the people, especially farmers.

I don’t intend to be like the little pig.

Well, let's think of this policy as a comeback benefit for those landless people, residents below the poverty line and military widows.

Let Shanglinyuan return to its original position - the regulating valve for the social gap between rich and poor.

After thinking for a while, Liu Che added: "For the time being, this notice will only be posted in Sixian Garden!"

His Sixian Garden is only 72 square kilometers. If too many people apply, then a good thing will turn into a bad thing!

"No!" Ji An nodded and wrote it down.

That's what Jialing does.

Liu Che led Ji An and his party through the civilian area of ​​Sixian Garden and arrived in front of an imperial mansion.

This is an imperial mansion that is probably intended for recreation and leisure.

Liu Che took his ministers on a tour.

Although this village is not big, with only a few hundred acres of land according to visual inspection, there are really many interesting places inside.

There are swings, bamboo forests, lotus ponds, fish ponds, everything.

"Chen Ajiao should like this place!" Liu Che thought about taking Chen Ajiao here for a walk some other time. Thinking of Chen Ajiao, he thought of Yinuo: "After a while, I will take Yinuo to live in Sixian Garden.

Bar!"

It took Liu Che a day to take a rough look at the entire Sixian Garden.

I have to say, the Emperor’s father is really awesome.

The Sixian Garden given to him had almost everything provided for him.

There are people, gardens, palaces, hunting grounds, and even several large workshops and mulberry forests.

In addition, there are also pear trees, jujube trees and other fruit trees planted on the mountain.

Basically, relying on this Sixian Garden, Liu Che could slowly develop his political abilities.

"Dad wants me to develop all aspects of literature, intelligence and physical education, and become a good prince!" Liu Che complained in his heart.

Fortunately, Liu Che had been a vassal king for more than ten years in his previous life, so he was able to get used to this kind of thing very quickly.

That night, Liu Che and his ministers stayed in a palace in Sixian Garden.

At the same time, the first meeting of all ministers after he became the crown prince was held here.

Basically, except for the necessary personnel on duty at the Prince's Palace, he called everyone else to Sixian Garden.

The main hall of the palace in Sixian Garden is not very big. Therefore, when hundreds of people were crammed into it at once, it suddenly seemed crowded.

Liu Che sat at the top, looking at the courtiers in the palace, and felt a little proud in his heart.

These people are all the most outstanding young people in the world.

Not to mention his own original team. Basically, they are all giants who will be able to stand alone in the future and even rank among the top three officials.

And the horses and people his father allocated to him were not much different.

Especially Sheren, they are basically all young officials with clean financial backgrounds. They have passed political review and have outstanding political achievements. They are all elites who have worked in local or government offices and have broken through with their skills and abilities.

It is no exaggeration to say that given time, as long as these people can grow and mature normally, they will be the backbone of the Han Dynasty for decades to come!

In terms of cultivating talents and honing their abilities.

What Liu Che admires most is not his imperial grandfather Liu Heng, but Liu Bang, whom many people ignore.

Liu Bang's methods and abilities in employing people and nurturing talents make people think that he is cheating!

For example, at the beginning, Empress Lu asked Liu Bang when he was dying: "After your Majesty reaches one hundred years old, Xiao Xiangguo will die. Who can succeed him?"

As a result, Liu Bang was like a machine gun, and he named all the prime ministers behind him.

Later, it was just as he said. Cao Shen, Wang Ling, Chen Ping, and Zhou Bo succeeded each other. Everyone was of good quality. They managed to stabilize the shaky Han Dynasty despite civil strife and war.

Then, the ministers of civil and military affairs in the early Han Dynasty and any other dynasty were all heroes who could move the wind and rain, and they were enough to do their job alone!

It can only be said that the two founders of the Han Dynasty were both seriously suspected of being time travellers, and they must have cheated!

Liu Bang's visual inspection was that he was probably a certain Celestial Dynasty official from later generations, at least a leader at the municipal party committee level. He had the essence of a Celestial Dynasty official - shameless, scheming, shameless, and powerful at the same time.

As for Liu Xiu, the great mage who turned on the system hang-up, let’s not talk about it, just talk about sadness...

And Liu Che, as a time traveler, naturally doesn't want to lag too far behind his predecessors.

At least, Liu Che feels that if he trains and trains these people well, more than ten years later, when these people grow up, they will be able to open up new territories for him and take the world by storm!

"All the ministers are selected by the talents of the moment. They do not think that I am a despicable person. They condescend to assist me. I am very insensitive. I will need more advice and correction from you in the future!" Liu Che raised the wine bottle, said a toast, and bowed.

A bow.

All the ministers in the palace immediately stood up, knelt down and kowtowed: "I am too stupid to dare to give a big gift to my family. I am willing to use my humble body to encourage my family!"

"Good!" Liu Che nodded, opened his hands, and said, "My lords, please stand down!"

He sat down and clapped his hands. Wang Dao immediately understood and walked in with a few eunuchs and a wooden sign covered with cloth.

Liu Chedao: "Today I am summoning all my dear friends. Firstly, we will drink together with you to express the love between the king and his ministers! Secondly, we will discuss the future layout of the Crown Prince's palace and the Sixian Garden. To put it simply,

This is the responsibility of each of the ministers!"

Liu Che stood up, lifted up the cloth on the wooden sign, and said: "In the past, when Cao Xiangguo was in power, he admonished Emperor Xiaohui: Ministers should abide by their duties, and do not fail! Do it alone! If all ministers abide by their duties,

, each performs his duties, then he can sit down and listen quietly to the good governance!"

At this time, although the Huang-Lao Sect has shown signs of decline, the mainstream Huang-Lao Sect still controls the trend and power.

Therefore, Cao Shen's sentence, "Your Majesty bows his head now, and all ministers are expected to do their duty. It's okay to obey without losing sight of it." It is still considered politically correct, and even the emperor would repeat it every now and then.

Of course, he must be an idiot!

Therefore, the ministers in the palace just looked at each other and did not feel anything was wrong.

Only Ji An and other disciples of Huang Laoxue would feel warm and excited.

As for the others, they almost acted as if they had not heard anything. They looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, and said expressionlessly: "Please teach me!"

Liu Che smiled slightly, pointed to the words on the wooden plaque, and said: "Therefore, what Cao Xiangguo said, in the understanding of Gu, means that Gu makes the rules, and the ministers follow the rules of Gu and perform their respective duties, assisting the superior in respecting the emperor.

The Queen Mother, please submit to the common people and the common people, and follow the ancestral temple!"

"Everyone, please come and take a look. On this wooden sign, I have made a plan for handling and reporting all affairs in the Crown Prince's palace in the future!" Liu Che looked at the wooden sign with a smile and faced him.

The ministers said.

At this moment, almost everyone held their breath and concentrated.

Everyone knows that this moment is almost a critical moment for the distribution of power in the palace.

Although in name, everything in the Crown Prince's palace is handled by the Crown Prince and his three ministers.

But in fact, the Crown Prince Taifu, Young Master and Zhan Shi of the Han Dynasty were deprived of power as early as Jinshang was still the Crown Prince.

When I was in the palace of the Crown Prince, Chao Cuo, the family leader, and Zhou Ren, the servant, were the main ones. The other three ministers were just decorations and clay puppets. It was tragic that Zhang Xiangru, the Marquis of Dong'an, refused to be a clay puppet!

I have done this, and it seems there is nothing wrong with my son learning from it.

However, what Liu Che wanted to do was far more drastic than what they thought.

Liu Che pointed to the words written in charcoal on the wooden sign and said: "From now on, all matters in the Gu Palace and Sixian Garden will be divided into three parts for handling!"

Liu Che looked at Ji An and said, "Ji Qing. From now on, all documents, rewards and punishment orders will be your responsibility!"

"I obey your orders!" Ji An came out of the queue to pay homage.

There didn't seem to be anything wrong with Ji An, since that was what he was supposed to do as a family leader anyway.

But Liu Che looked at him and said: "Your attention, it is all the documents and reward and punishment orders, including those that you are responsible for, the servants are also responsible for the door officials, and the orders are updated, regardless of civil and military matters, all matters need to be

Report to Qing!"

"Ah..." Ji An had no idea that the prince would actually give him some of the powers of other ministers.

However, Chao Cuo had played like this before, so he was not surprised. Instead, he felt a little happy in his heart and bowed: "I understand!"

Liu Che pointed to the words on the wooden sign and said to Ji An: "From now on, you will be the person in charge of the Ministry of Affairs. All documents will be compiled by you and reported to Yu Gu!"

Ji An looked up at the words on the wooden sign, slightly lost in thought. He saw that the first row on the wooden sign was the word "Ministry of Affairs", and below it was a note: Manage government affairs.

"This family is going to reform!" Ji An started to tremble in his heart.

None of the princes or crown princes of the Han Dynasty could live peacefully.

Since the founding of the country, the system and official system of the Han Dynasty have undergone several reforms.

Although the changes are not big each time.

But I couldn't bear to change it today and tomorrow. Therefore, most of the laws and systems of the Han Dynasty today have changed compared with the early days of the founding of the country.

But, is it a bit taboo to change it like this in the crown prince position?

Just as he was about to give him advice, he found that the prince was smiling at him.

Ji An immediately understood that at least the emperor had tacitly approved of this plan.

"Hey, no wonder the elders say that the Han family is so changeable!" Ji An shook his head inwardly.

Liu Che also smiled. How could he have the courage to implement such a big change without discussing it with his father?

Of course, Dad didn't express his position either.

However, for the royal family, the emperor's lack of expression is tantamount to tacit approval. As long as he doesn't poke a hole in the sky, it's basically fine.

Moreover, the tradition of the Han family has always been that the prince can play casually on his own one-third of an acre of land, and no one will care!

Therefore, the imperial court will neither recognize nor oppose the restructuring of the Crown Prince's palace that Liu Che is currently tinkering with.

Basically, if the reform has achieved results, then the emperor, three princes and nine ministers will come to pick peaches.

If something goes wrong, the prince will suffer it by himself, and he will digest the consequences he has sown.

Just like Liu Che's father asked Chao to make a mistake in the past when he lost millet and donated noble titles, when the results came out, everyone in the emperor's ministers had a share...

It's like cleaning up the things you messed up yourself.

But Liu Che is full of confidence in this restructuring.

It’s not enough!

This is the successful experience of later generations after the Sui and Tang Dynasties for thousands of years - the system of three provinces and six ministries!

Of course, it cannot be the same as the Three Provinces and Six Ministries system of the Song and Ming Dynasties. Since it is in this pre-Yuan era, it must have pre-Yuan characteristics and conform to today's people's cognition and habits.

And you have to take your time and experiment little by little.

Why can't we wait to implement the three-province-six-ministry system now instead of waiting for us to ascend the throne?

Liu Che also has his own difficulties.

In fact, his time is precious. If he tries to do this after he ascends the throne, he will have to spend at least ten years slowly experimenting and testing.

By the time the three provinces and six ministries system is completed, he will be in his thirties and forties, and it will be time to consider his successor.

Then why talk about destroying the Huns and colonizing India? Let's go to bed as soon as possible.

Testing it in the uterus of the eldest son first will undoubtedly save a lot of time. Once he ascends the throne, he will be able to use the successful experience of the uterus of the taiwan to promote it.

As for the opposition?

In fact, Liu Che knew very well that in this era and in this empire, people never resist reform and change!

It is no exaggeration to say that the Western Han Dynasty was the most important dynasty in Chinese history and the most suitable for reform.

From the emperor to the common people, almost no one resisted the reform.

In fact, although the Han people say that the Qin Dynasty is the most annoying, in their hearts they admire Shang Jun's reforms, the political system, legal system, and science and technology of the Qin Dynasty. Otherwise, the Han Dynasty would not have inherited the Qin system.

’s statement.

Otherwise, there would not be one emperor and one system, or even one emperor and several systems!

As Xiaozhu’s edict later said: Jia and scholar-bureaucrats are renewed!

This is a sentence from the edict issued by Xiaozhu after he was granted Zen status at Mount Tai. It means that I will work hard with the scholar-bureaucrats to promote reform and renew the world. (To be continued. (.))
