Even Ningling Hou, who has the largest number of households in the city, has an annual income of only 200,000 yuan. Even if you include rewards and the benefits of feudal industry, the maximum is 300,000 yuan.
With such a small amount of capital, not to mention showing off wealth in the circle of princes, even the powerful landlord class in Guanzhong said, I don't accept it!
In these days, buying a manor in the suburbs of Chang'an can cost millions of dollars!
Even in the newly developed Yangling area, the price of one mu of cultivated land is as high as 30,000 yuan!
Therefore, these three princes, except for the set of princes' crowns and robes purchased by the Taichang Yamen, they have nothing. Looking at it, the appearance of these three people also looks like that of the rich men in the countryside.
almost.
The only difference is probably that they have never worked in the fields, so they have fair skin and neat hair.
Liu Che waved his hand and said: "Three beloved ministers, please excuse me. If you come, please give me a seat!"
After these people were seated, Liu Che pondered slightly and said, "I am sending an order to my three beloved ministers today. There is a matter that I want to entrust to my three beloved ministers. I wonder if the three of you are willing to serve the Han family?"
"I have been working hard and sleeping all night, thinking that I will die in the service of Your Majesty!" Although the three princes have been away from politics for a long time, they still have the skills to express their loyalty and pat their chests. After hearing this, they immediately came out to kowtow.
I want to give the Liu family a posture of being a bull and a horse for ten thousand years.
Liu Che chuckled and said, "I know how loyal you are!"
Among the three, Ningling Marquis Lu Chen, who had a higher status, raised his head slightly and asked cautiously: "I wonder if your Majesty has anything to do with you?"
Liu Che stood up, raised his hands seriously towards Liu Bang's Changling Mausoleum and said: "I had a dream in the middle of the night last night, and I dreamed that Emperor Gao said to me: Boy Che! It was difficult for me to start a business, but thanks to God's grace, I have made the world prosperous, and now I am in the world.
In Taiping, the trend of corruption is everywhere. The princes, honorable ministers, cockfighting lackeys, and gambling are their profession. I feel very sad about it. I want to take care of it myself! Then I woke up and saw the emperor's sword in front of the bed coming out of the box and chiming!"
"I know it. Emperor Gao gave a warning in a dream!" Liu Che waved his hand, and Wang Dao immediately held the 'evidence' knowingly - Emperor Gao's White Snake Sword, which, like the imperial seal, was regarded as a symbol of the authority of the Emperor Liu, walked to
Displayed in front of the three princes.
When Lu Chen and the other three people saw the legendary holy sword used by Emperor Gao to slay the White Snake Uprising, they immediately fell to the ground and kowtowed.
Liu Che was very good at playing this trick of using the name of his ancestors and ghosts and gods.
Of course, the more important thing is - no one can expose him, and no one dares to expose him!
Liu Che looked at Ningling Hou Lu Chen and said: "Lu Qing, your ancestor Yi Hou Yishe people joined the Gao Emperor in Chengliu. He first defeated Cao Jiu and Cheng Gao, and then used the Du Wei to attack Chen En. The Gao Emperor considered him a good general.
, was granted the title of Marquis of Ningling for his meritorious service!"
He looked at Sun De again and said: "Sun Qing, your ancestors waited for Chi Gong, and used Zhongchuan to follow the dragon. It started in Pei, and used the general to attack Xiang. Although Xingyang was defeated, he was indomitable and finally came back again.
Lang fought with Xiang Jiu, won, and became the governor of Shangdang County. He defeated Chen Chen, and for his meritorious service, he was named Tangyang Marquis!"
After Liu Che finished speaking, Sun De and Lu Chen were so moved that they burst into tears.
For princes like them, isn't the most glorious thing the merits of their ancestors?
Liu Che continued: "Qi Qing is the ancestral Jianhou Ji Gong. He is also a famous general. He guards Jicheng on a single horse, stops the Huns' cavalry from outside, and calms the people inside. For his meritorious service, he is named a prince!"
Liu Che suddenly raised his voice: "It was difficult for our ancestors to start a business. The road was thorny and blue, and they overcame thorns and thorns, leading to the prosperity of the Han family today. I have heard the elders in the countryside say: Those who follow the truth think of the tree, and those who drink from its source think of its source!"
These words immediately aroused the minds of Lu Chen and the others.
For the princes, the daily life of fine clothing and fine food made them generally feel a great sense of insecurity.
This insecurity comes from the simple and rough treatment by the Liu family emperor, as well as the gap between themselves and their ancestors.
In particular, the insecurity in the hearts of princes such as Lu Chen, who was almost forgotten by the mainstream, was particularly strong.
They were worried that one day, the emperor would take back their titles with just one word.
In that case, the whole family, young and old, would all have to drink the northwest wind!
If you look at Liuhou and Zanhou, these famous figures in the past who lost Hou Kingdom, you will know what will happen to them once something like that happens?
Liuhou and Zanhou have made great contributions to the country. As long as the emperor of Chang'an still has the surname Liu, sooner or later they will be reunited and re-confessed. For example, last year, the late emperor re-confessed the descendants of Zanhou.
But what should we do with these unknown princes who are invisible to everyone?
Liu Che's words naturally resonated with them.
More importantly, as the emperor, Liu Che's speech undoubtedly aroused the passion in their hearts.
Lu Chen and others immediately kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Liu Che smiled and said: "I heard that the three beloved ladies all wrote some popular stories under their names?"
Then, without waiting for the three people to answer, he continued: "There is no need to deny it in a hurry. I asked you to come and I will find out clearly! I ordered you to come and it is also related to this matter!"
"The three beloved ministers are good at writing stories and plots. I would like to ask the three beloved ministers to sort out the deeds of the heroes and generals since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and record them on bamboo and silk, so that they can be passed down to all generations, so that future generations will never forget the pioneering work of their ancestors.
In difficult times, drink water and think about the source, and you will know the root of today's prosperous world!"
Write biographies of the founding generals and heroes, writing about their glorious achievements, glorious past and great personalities.
This kind of thing is done in almost all countries in later generations.
Even if human beings hope and the people cook the lighthouse, they will still fall off the ax of the cherry blossom god, the founding sage, all the saints, and the personality charm is max.
How could Liu Che lag behind others?
This kind of brainwashing work must not only be taken seriously, but also persevered and persevered.
Goebbels said: Once you tell a lie three thousand times, it automatically becomes the truth!
And, this is just the beginning.
In the future, as the war begins and prepares, relevant public opinion work and propaganda work will also be in place.
Liu Che doesn't want there to be any talk that a good man should not be a soldier or a good man should not make nails.
These days, he has been entangled with his staff and think tank, discussing how to carry out reforms based on the Qin Dynasty military meritorious Ming Tianzhai to meet the needs of the development of the times.
The most important directions are two points.
One point is that we must ensure that the treatment of soldiers after they have performed meritorious service will not be disappointing.
Otherwise, if the front line is victorious and the disabled veterans in the rear are left alone for the rest of their lives, or even the orphans of fallen soldiers have no one to care for them, then who among the common people will still be willing to serve as soldiers?
In his previous life, Xiaozhu later had to abandon the traditional military conscription system, and even abandon the compulsory military service system for all citizens in border counties, and instead used military recruitment as the main method, because the conscription could not recruit qualified soldiers.
The reason for the shortage of soldiers is that the merits and treatment of soldiers do not match.
Soldiers who die serving their country will not receive reasonable compensation and care.
Another is to change the Qin Dynasty's system of housing and land for military merit into a system of deducting money for military merit.
Liu Che's current thinking is: those above the rank of Zuo Shu Zhang should still be granted land and titles.
Those below Zuo Shu Zhang and below were given a certain amount of money and food subsidies every year according to different levels. At the same time, corresponding military merits could exempt them from certain corvee service.
In addition, relevant benefits and systems for disabled and fallen veterans must also be released.
All in all, while gradually replacing the old military aristocratic bureaucratic group with the examination of scholars, Liu Che did not want the nation's martial spirit to be dampened.
On the contrary, Liu Che wanted to keep the status of soldiers at least at the level of the Qin Dynasty, or even exceed the level of the Qin Dynasty.
