Wang Dao held a thin booklet presented by Chao Cuo and respectfully presented it to Liu Che.
Liu Che took it, opened it and looked at it carefully.
Gongsun Hong's writing skills are naturally excellent, and his handwriting is also very beautiful.
When I read it, it was actually quite catchy.
Moreover, it can be seen that Gongsun Hong has put a lot of effort in these days. At the very least, he has chewed up Lu's Spring and Autumn and Guanzi.
The truth stated seems to be very deceptive.
"It's just that the Confucian color is still too strong," Liu Che put the booklet aside and thought to himself.
However, Gongsun Hong cannot be blamed.
Now, even Ji An could not have expected that Liu Che, the emperor who had been shouting and killing merchants and suppressing them in the past, would actually have the idea of supporting or even encouraging merchants in his heart.
Therefore, on the surface, Liu Che still pretended to like it very much and said: "What this guy said is quite in line with my opinion! Especially the horoscope of 'if the country does not benefit from the wealth, the country will use the people at home' is very good!"
Liu Che asked Chao Cuo: "Master Yushi, where is this son now?"
"Your Majesty, I am currently outside the palace," Chao Cuo replied respectfully.
When Liu Che heard this, he chuckled.
I gave Chao Cuo a thumbs up in my heart.
Liu Che was originally a little worried that rashly throwing a guy like Gongsun Hong, who had no background and no qualifications, into the position of Lord Commander, would cause people to gossip, and might even make it impossible to carry out future work.
But after Chao Cuo jumped in and cooperated in this scene, it became much smoother to use Gong Sunhong later.
Can’t the person recommended by the imperial censor be promoted to a higher level or promoted to a lower rank?
Of course, Liu Che knew it himself.
It is estimated that Gongsun Hong's teacher Hu Wusheng, in order to pave the way for his disciples, this time he almost used up all the connections he had accumulated over the past few decades.
It is very likely that I owe a lot of favors to several giants of Legalism.
These favors are not easy to repay!
But this has nothing to do with Liu Che.
"Let him come into the palace to listen," Liu Che said in a pretentious manner.
"promise!"
After the performance of the play, Liu Che sat upright, looked at the ministers, and encouraged him loudly: "Today is the New Year's Day, and all the ministers can speak freely. There are no taboos!"
This is naturally a face-saving project that must be done, and it is also the key to the smoothness and success of today's court meeting.
As an emperor, Liu Che has always had a relatively clear understanding.
He knew in his heart that even though he was cheating, the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty were no match for him, the emperor who had proven that he was indeed the king.
But the more this is the case, the more cautious and humble we must be, and we must not be proud or arrogant.
Don’t even think that you can really take on the whole world.??
There are many people in history who thought they were very powerful when others saw them, but in the end, they were just paper tigers that could be broken by a poke.
A typical example is Fu Jian.
Two thousand years of human political history are lingering in Liu Che's heart at this moment.
"A truly powerful empire should make people think that they are ruling and governing the country," Liu Che thought to himself.
This is the experience of later generations of Emperors of the United States, and it is also the magic weapon for the Emperor of China to be unique in the world.
At this time, Liu Che transformed this successful experience into the Western Han Dynasty and turned it into: Let the scholar-bureaucrats, nobles and princes think that they are ruling the world with me!
So how can this be achieved?
Of course, we must give full play to the ‘people’s decision’.
Anyway, no matter what the ministers say, in the end, as the emperor, Liu Che will always find a way to change their opinions into his own.
In this way, the ministers and princes will feel: Your Majesty is still very popular and respects us.
With such a foundation, no matter how dissatisfied or disapproval the ministers are with the policies introduced, they will still implement them.
The policy you choose means you have to do it even on your knees, right?
Even if you are unwilling to implement it, at least you will not play tricks secretly, violate the rules, or even cause sabotage.
This is much better than forcing the cow's head to drink water.
More importantly, doing so can also give ministers, especially scholar-bureaucrats, a sense of agency and the feeling that they are the masters of the country.
This is crucial!
Without this premise, if the emperor talks to himself, plays and sings by himself, even if you can boast all the bullshit, what's the use?
This is Liu Che’s experience of self-examination and introspection in the past few months after he defeated the Liehou Group last time.
In fact, the last time the princes came together, Liu Che was frightened.
As a time traveler, how could Liu Che not know the fate of Wang Mang and Wang Anshi?
In this world, you are not right. If you want to do good things, you will definitely succeed.
Especially political matters.
Bureaucrats and dignitaries had thousands of ways to make the emperor feel like he was in a state of ecstasy.
Therefore, after the last experience, Liu Che knew.
For now, until he has established a force that can replace the existing bureaucracy and interest groups, he will continue to make do with these old-style bureaucracies and old aristocrats.
In many cases, he even had to take a few steps back to make a show in exchange for the cooperation of these people.
Otherwise, if you push these guys hard, and they clearly can’t defeat you, won’t they still hold you back? Won’t they try their best to disgust you?
Liu Che didn't think that he could defeat the whole world on his own!
Fortunately, Liu Che has always maintained a good image.
At least when it came to major national affairs and court meetings, Liu Che, the emperor, never acted arbitrarily. He always sought opinions first and won majority support before starting to implement them.
Therefore, although currently, there are some rifts between Liu Che and the bureaucrats.
But the impact was not big, and Liu Che also used some things to bribe bureaucrats and powerful people from time to time.
Therefore, today's scene can continue to be performed.
Moreover, because the matter we are talking about is about merchants, there is no connection of interest at all with most of the noble nobles and scholar-bureaucrats. It is at best a matter of ideas and political opinions.
The ministers gave Liu Che a lot of face as the emperor.
In particular, the princes stood up one after another, responded to Liu Che's call, and spoke freely.
Anyway, it’s nothing more than scolding businessmen for being rich and unkind and hoarding money.
Who doesn't do this?
On the contrary, the scholar-bureaucrats thought more profoundly and had more sense of ownership than the princes.
After all, merchants have been prospering in the Han Dynasty for decades.
The pros and cons brought about by the great prosperity of merchants have been put in front of the world and have been commented and considered for decades.
Like all things, as long as something exists for a long time, naturally, some people will think about it, is the existence of this thing reasonable? Is it beneficial?
The political circles and public opinion circles of the Han Dynasty held negative views on merchants, although the mainstream was negative.
However, it is not that there are no people who speak for merchants. (To be continued.)
ps: I sat in the car all day today, and my head was dizzy. I didn’t get off until half past ten. I started working immediately after I got home. I finally wrote something down. First
