With Liu Che's final word, the tone was set for the Fan City case.±,
The attitude of the princes towards Liu Che immediately changed.
Previously, everyone felt that the emperor was too harsh on the heroes.
But now, with the example of Wuyang Marquis and Fanshi people, especially before Fanshi people, Liu Che used the heads of the entire family of the ministers, Gaoling and Xinyang to pave the way. Everyone felt that the emperor still cared about everyone.
As long as they don't break the law and have no different intentions, the Emperor of the Liu family will still take good care of his heroes.
Especially when there is a grace order that whets the appetite of everyone.
This contrast is even more intense.
As a result, most of the princes' eyes changed when they looked at Liu Che.
Facts have proven that a strict parent may make the children at home fearful, fearful and even disgusted.
But if these children know that this parent is for their own good and for their own healthy growth, then, except for a few n, few children will feel hatred towards their parents, and even with age and experience,
As time goes by, they will gradually appreciate that they have such a strict parent.
The current princes are basically in a similar state of mind.
Everyone thinks that the emperor is still very good, and he is very generous to us heroes.
The Prime Minister, Gao Ling himself sought death, and Anping Marquis Liu Zhongyi simply sought death. No wonder the emperor did so.
Some people even think that this is what the emperor should be like.
Just as Zichan said at that time: Only the virtuous can subdue the people with kindness, and the next best thing is fierceness. Fire is fierce, and the people look at it and fear it. Therefore, it is rare to die. Water is cowardly, and the people play with it. There are many.
Death is inevitable, so it is difficult to forgive.
This does not mean that the emperor is treating everyone harshly. It is clearly the emperor who is protecting everyone so that everyone will not break the law and die.
Of course, there are very few people who think like this.
But the attitude of the vast majority of princes has changed.
Everyone followed Prime Minister Zhou Yafu one after another, shouting long live for three times, and then worshiped: "Only for blessing, only for power, only for food!"
Everyone felt that only Hong Fanzhong's words could express their admiration for the emperor.
Liu Che looked at the attitude of the ministers and his heart moved slightly.
this is a good chance!
I'm afraid it will be very difficult to find such an opportunity in the future.
People's hearts are changeable, and the world is full of unruliness.
If we don't take advantage of the current atmosphere, strike while the iron is hot, and roll out the policy that we have been pondering for a long time, I'm afraid we will have to put in more effort in the future.
After all, politics cannot be a zero-sum game.
Everything must be according to the wishes of the emperor.
"Everyone please get back on your feet!" Liu Che raised his hand and said with a gentle smile: "Let's discuss the next topic!"
Moistening his throat, Liu Che made a mental draft before continuing: "Since the rise of the Han Dynasty, all wastes have prospered. Emperor Gao wiped out the Qin Dynasty. The world was peaceful, and Taizong cultivated and prospered, benefiting the world. Renzong promoted benevolent government and eliminated the Qin Dynasty.
Internal thief. So we have the peace we have today..."
"Yi Yun: One Yuan begins again, and everything appears. Last year, I issued an edict to the world to place doctors in various disciplines such as "Poetry", "Shu", "Shang" and "Shen", ranging from four hundred to two thousand stones. I commend this to you.
Scholar-bureaucrat, educate Yuanyuan!" Liu Che shamelessly flattered himself, but his career rating system for professors, which he copied from later universities, was indeed widely praised.
In the past, only the absolute best among hundreds of schools of thought could become a doctor.
In other words, only those who are the best in their own school in terms of academic quality and reputation can become a doctor.
Some unpopular and unpopular small schools even have no hope of getting a doctorate.
Although this doctorate officer wants power but not power, and money but not money, at best he is just a royal scholar receiving state subsidies.
However, this is what literati are good at, isn’t it?
If you can get a doctorate title, it will be a big killer when you get there. I don't know how many rich and powerful people will be willing to pay a lot of money to invite them to teach their children and grandchildren.
He will also be respected by everyone in the village.
It’s simply the best way to show off your coolness.
And after Liu Che played the new tricks of Doctor Four Hundred Stone, Doctor Eight Hundred Stone, Doctor Thousand Stone and Doctor Two Thousand Stone.
Almost the entire literati class said it was wonderful.
Mom no longer has to worry about being looked down upon when she goes out in the future.
Therefore, this policy even surpassed all Liu Che's previous edicts and was praised by literati as the most powerful edict of the new emperor and new policy.
The Han family's imperial literati group has greatly expanded.
Almost all qualified and capable scholars were wiped out in one fell swoop.
Liu Che, who had tasted the sweetness, of course wanted to go further.
But this step is risky.
It is very likely to step on the painful feet of the literati class and even trigger a frenzy of public opinion, so Liu Che has never dared to take practical action.
But today, Liu Che feels it is time to introduce this policy.
In China, only literati should not and cannot be respected by society and the country.
There are more talents from all walks of life who should be respected.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Che continued: "Since the Sui people drilled wood to make fire, Shen Nong tasted the herbs, China was first created. Later, Cang Jie created characters, Zhuan Xu created history, and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors have made great contributions and benefited the world. Today's
At that time, the people in the world were rich in literary talent but despised workers. They loved gifts but neglected construction. They valued the weak and neglected the real. I would not accept it. Moreover, I am not virtuous and cannot help the people. Without the support of wise ministers and the help of good craftsmen and skillful craftsmen,
Is there a waterwheel and a curved plow? Is there a dragon head to facilitate the track?"
"Therefore, I decided to establish a doctorate of carpenters, a doctorate of iron smelting, a doctorate of casting, and a doctorate of farmers. Do you think this is true?" Liu Che stood up and asked, "You are all virtuous, and you must know the affairs of kings in ancient and modern times.
If you have something to say, please write down the policy and report it to the public, and I will read it personally!"
Originally, Liu Che planned to add a doctorate in economics and mathematics.
But then I thought about it and realized it was not the right time yet, so I gave up.
But as long as the Carpenter Doctor and the Smelting, Casting and Farmer Doctors can be successfully launched, then the Economics and Mathematics Doctors can naturally be added later.
In addition, because he was afraid that public opinion would be too high-pressure, Liu Che chose to let the ministers express their opinions in writing in the form of memorials. This was for convenience and quoted out of context in these memorials.
However, Liu Che felt that the ministers and princes should give him this face.
After all, doctorate officers are actually just subordinate officials of the Young Mansion. Strictly speaking, their status belongs to the royal staff.
Logically speaking, this is a private matter belonging to the royal family.
It was only because of the special status of the doctor, who was the country's brand and face, and had great influence, that he had to bring it up to the court.
What's more, the Han Dynasty actually did not discriminate against craftsmen and farmers.
There used to be carpenters who were granted the title of marquis (Wuhou), and there were also melon growers who rose to the rank of two thousand shi, and finally retired with the title of Marquis of Guannei (Marquis of Dongling). Even magic sticks and women could be granted the title of marquis (Marquis of Lu, known as the Marquis of Female Pavilion).
.
In this society, anyone who drives a carriage can become a lieutenant, a prince, or a prime minister.
Improving the status of craftsmen was not as big as it was in the Tang, Song and Ming dynasties.
At best, Confucians and the Huang-Lao sect will oppose it.
But the Legalists and Mohists would support it with both hands.
However, the pressure from public opinion will be greater.
After all, it is the Confucians and the Huang-Lao School who have the right to speak.
Therefore, Liu Checai had to bundle farmers with carpenters, smelters, and casters for marketing purposes to reduce the pressure of public opinion as much as possible.
And it is launched at a moment like this to minimize resistance.
As soon as Liu Che finished speaking, the officials below immediately started making a noise.
It doesn't matter to the princes. Three generations back, they are all farmers, carpenters, butchers and even ruffians, robbers and bandits. Nobles from the old era like Zhang Liang are very few among the heroes of the Han Dynasty.
.
But it is different for ministers who were born as scholar-bureaucrats.
These people are of very noble origin.
Counting three or four generations up. Who has not been a nobleman, official, or landowner for generations?
There were many poetry and calligraphy families like Ji An and Yan Yi in the official circles of the Han Dynasty.
Now, Liu Che wants to include carpenters and smelting and casting craftsmen in the doctorate system. It is simply unbearable to have them be on an equal footing with elegant art!
"Doctors are best suited to those who are knowledgeable and knowledgeable. How can a craftsman be a doctor?" Someone immediately exploded and stood up and kowtowed: "I ordered Xu Yuanmei to die to commemorate: Your Majesty is far-sighted and far-sighted, but I am ignorant and ignorant.
But if Your Majesty fills the palace with craftsmen, wouldn’t it make the world laugh? Moreover, if the craftsmen are regarded as doctors and respected and raised, this is something that the previous emperors, Taizong, Taizu, and the Three Emperors and Five Emperors have not seen. Therefore, the Prime Minister An Wen Hou Jiagong
He once said to Emperor Taizong: If your Majesty loves his ministers, he can make them rich and noble, but the courtesy of the court must not be disrespected! Taizong thought so! If your Majesty loves the craftsmen, you can give him gold, houses, titles, doctorates, and state affairs.
It is a public weapon. I foolishly think that it is sacred due to His Majesty’s holiness and wisdom. It should not be like this!”
Liu Che followed the sound and looked over. Well, it was an official from the Shaofu!
The young man made Liu She look embarrassed, looking at Xu Yuan, his teeth chattering.
"Xu Yuan!" Liu Che held his cheek and said lightly: "Why do you think so lightly of yourself? If a craftsman cannot become a doctor, how can a person who chooses rice be worth a thousand stones?"
The official suddenly suffered tons of injuries, his face turned red and red, and he just felt burning pain.
The main job of his official position, Guan Guan Ling, is indeed to select rice.
However, with the development of the times and changes in the system, the Daoguan Ling gradually took on some matters related to his own work, such as managing the lease of vacation land and so on.
But, no matter what, according to the explicit provisions of the Shaofu system, the official order is mainly for the emperor, concubines and the queen mother to select rice!
The job of selecting rice is considered a lowly job among the common people. Generally, only slaves from wealthy families can do this job.
Although you are said to be a slave to the emperor, you are also a noble slave.
But if the emperor pointed it out to his face, it would be a slap in the face.
Xu Yuan immediately put his head to the ground, not daring to raise his head.
But his immediate boss, Liu She, was still looking at him with red eyes, wishing he could eat this guy.
If he hadn't been in the court now, Liu She would have really wanted to cut this ignorant guy into pieces and risk his own death instead of getting involved with labor. If this caused him to be resented by the emperor, Liu She really didn't know who to cry to.
Therefore, Liu She secretly made up his mind to kick this stupid young man to his fellow villagers' temple after returning home.
As the name suggests, this is a yamen in charge of slaughtering livestock and supplying it to the palace.
Confucius said, a gentleman is far away from the kitchen.
Aren't you noble, aren't you elegant?
Brother, I will ask you to go to the Baoren Temple to see if you are still noble and elegant?
However, Liu Che no longer cared about this guy who jumped up and showed his face to the door.
To be honest, Liu Che would really have a headache if Huangmen Shizhong or Huangmen Shilang jumped up, because these two official positions are extremely noble and good at talking.
Fortunately, a stupid young man jumped out and slapped Liu Che in the face. If those two guys jumped out again, they would make it clear that they were confronting Liu Che.
The guy who just confronted the emperor was undoubtedly here to deceive the emperor.
It's just that the old Liu family's court battles often resulted in lives lost.
Therefore, no one so far dares to be so unafraid of death.
In addition, Liu Che asked the ministers to express their opinions in words, so many ministers who were dissatisfied with this decided to go back and write a beautiful article that was full of literary talent, quoted from scriptures, and exhorted the emperor to admonish the emperor.
So, this episode passed quickly.
Finally, the critical moment came.
"Yesterday I ordered Zongzheng to pass on the edict I drafted to all the ministers for their reference. I wonder what you think?" After Liu Che said this, he told Wang Dao: "Read out my edict again!
"
"No!" Wang Dao knelt down and kowtowed. Then, holding a silk book, he walked to the imperial steps and said loudly: "The emperor's edict said:..." He repeated the content of the edict three times.
This is the so-called third reading in the traditional sense.
During the third reading, if you have any objections, you can raise them at any time.
But if no one objects after reading it three times, it means that the order has produced legal effects and must be strictly implemented from top to bottom.
If the prefecture dares to refute the order passed on the third reading at the court meeting and violate it in both positive and negative ways, then it will be against the entire country and the entire world.
Historically, despite the constant local opposition, the order to punish Xiaozhu was vigorously implemented. This is the reason why all the opponents lost their heads or were sent to prison or rushed home to farm.
Of course, during the third reading, even if some people object to it.
But if the emperor insists on having his own way, he can still force it through.
The old Liu family did this not once or twice.
But if you do that, the impact will be bad, and the bureaucrats below may not implement it. Even if it is implemented, they can shirk, delay, or just show off.
Wang Dao read it three times in a row.
The entire Xuanshi Palace was silent, without any sound.
It's not that no one wants to object.
However, look at the fate of the three families of Gao Ling, Xia Xiang, and Yang Xin, and then think about the mentally ill Marquis Anping and Marquis Wuyang who were gently let go by the magnanimous emperor.
No one dares to stand up and get into trouble again.
Everyone is waiting for others to come forward and then decide based on the situation themselves.
Moreover, even those who want to succeed feel that the probability of success is too low.
The current situation is: if the Prime Minister and the Imperial Censor do not come forward to take charge of the situation, it will be impossible to reverse it!
But everyone knows that the prime minister and the imperial censor will not stand out.
In this case, why bother to step out as a villain and make the emperor disgusted, and then become mentally ill?
We are not stupid, and there is no need to sacrifice our lives for the sake of political achievements for Jin Wuzhi.
After finishing the third reading, Liu Che finally showed a smile on his face.
The party school plan finally took the first step to success! (To be continued.)
ps: Damn it, Dian Niang had a convulsion last night for some unknown reason~ I’ll go~
Anyway, I clearly posted it at 11:55 last night, and then I looked at it this morning and thought, damn, it wasn’t posted. This really makes me feel embarrassed~
I won’t talk anymore. If I talk too much, I’ll be in tears!
Today is still 10,000 words~
But the second one is more likely to be a little later. You don’t have to wait. Go to bed early~
