Zhuge Liang returned to the mansion to rest. When he walked back to the mansion tiredly, Princess Raoyang was in the courtyard. She was supported by Zhuge Zhan's arms and let the little kid walk in the courtyard. If it were other children at this age,
He must have been walking back and forth happily to try this new way of action, but Zhuge Zhan was different. No matter how his mother urged or teased him, he stood motionless, with his head lowered and yawning.
Zhuge Liang stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked at the mother and son. The fatigue on his body was wiped away. He smiled and looked at them seriously.
Princess Raoyang raised her head and saw Zhuge Liang standing outside the door. She couldn't help but started crying. Zhuge Liang was shocked and walked up quickly and asked: "Madam, what's the matter? What's the matter?" Rao
Princess Yang looked at Zhuge Zhan who was motionless and cried, "Is Dalang sick? Why is he so lethargic and not moving around?" Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang quickly comforted him and said, "Madam, don't worry. Didn't I ask Dr. Hua to help me before?"
Have you seen it?"
"Zhan'er is very healthy, fat and fat, like a mother"
Before he finished speaking, Princess Raoyang pinched his waist and asked viciously: "You mean I'm fat?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare, madam, let me go, I didn't mean it!"
"Huh!" Princess Raoyang let go of him, picked up Zhuge Zhan, and watched Zhuge Zhan fall asleep in her arms. She was still a little worried and asked, "Why don't we go see Dr. Hua again?"
"
"No need for this guy, I don't have any illness. I'm just lazy and have this temper. I don't know who I followed." Zhuge Liang shook his head helplessly. Princess Raoyang calmed down, hugged Zhuge Zhan and pecked her hard.
After a few mouthfuls, he said: "I wish you were well!" Zhuge Liang didn't know what to say, "Madam, you'd better wipe your tears quickly, otherwise, I'm afraid the messenger of embroidered clothes will come to arrest me again."
"Hahaha, how dare you speak ill of my brother!"
"I don't dare. I may have to go out tomorrow. I don't know how long it will take."
Under the reluctant gaze of Princess Raoyang, Zhuge Liang left the mansion and went to the Shangshu Terrace. Everyone gathered in front of the Shangshu Terrace and walked in together. The Shangshu Terrace was not much different from the Situ Mansion. Everyone was also busy. They had just arrived.
Guo Jia frowned and walked out. Looking at everyone, his face was full of displeasure. The decree that should have been implemented long ago was delayed for four days just to wait for these people.
Guo Jia was naturally displeased, but he did not have the bad temper of Cao Cao. He did not curse. He looked at everyone and said, "I have already decided on the manpower assigned to me. I want to go with him. You can follow me."
Let's set off now!" Since Liu Mastiff was not around, Zhuge Liang had the highest official rank, so he was responsible for the assignments. He did not assign them indiscriminately, but assigned them to the three tasks according to what everyone liked.
Zhuge Liang took Zhou Yu to prepare for the implementation of the mixed living order. The implementation of the mixed living order must start from the four areas, that is, Yi, Xi, Ning, and Jiao. Zhuge Liang is proficient in multiple languages, and he brought Zhou Yu to prepare for the possibility.
Sima Yi and Fa Zheng would encounter trouble when they went to find the Veterinary Order. What they had to do was find officials who were good at this and then distribute them to various places, which was also extremely cumbersome.
As for Zhong Changtong, he had to follow the officials alone to implement the second policy, which was to do good to the people. This required formulating corresponding laws and implementing them in all directions. With the help of many officials, it was not too difficult.
Everyone divided their work before saying goodbye and leaving.
Cao Cao's three policies were his first three decrees to establish his prestige after taking office. If they could be completed, they would be of great benefit to Cao Cao. However, Cao Cao didn't seem to care about their implementation and never asked about them again.
Guo Jia was entrusted to Guo Jia for implementation. Guo Jia was different. Guo Jia wanted everything to be carried out according to his own plan. He ran back and forth and did not forget to give orders to officials in various places.
People like Zhuge Liang became tools in Guo Jia's hands. They had no freedom at all and could only carry out Guo Jia's orders. Everyone was very dissatisfied with this. Even Zhuge Liang had no choice but to say "arbitrary" to Zhou Yu.
, all the memorials he wrote to Guo Jia during this period were rejected by Guo Jia. The reply was full of disdain and contempt for Zhuge Liang's proposal. It was the first time for Zhuge Liang to be ignored like this. No wonder he said such words.
.
Zhou Yu just smiled and said: "The ministers in the East Palace also spoke to Lord Zhuge in the same way before."
Zhuge Liang was stunned.
Although everyone is dissatisfied with Guo Jia's behavior, it has to be said that this Shangshu Ling, who has been working hard at the Shangshu desk for a long time and has been busy at the grassroots level to implement administrative orders, is indeed much better than the officials in the East Palace.
Not only did he think carefully, he was also able to adapt to local conditions. He had his own unique insights into every political order and implemented it very well. Even Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi put down their arrogance in front of him.
They had countless strategies in their minds, but after arriving at the place, they discovered that they seemed to be somewhat different from the reality. Things were not what they thought. For example, Zhuge Liang once proposed that when the mixed residence order was implemented, the relocated people would be subsidized.
This proposal for relief was rejected by Guo Jia. He was still a little dissatisfied. However, after arriving at the local area, he discovered that, on the one hand, there was not much food in the government offices in these border areas, and on the other hand, the relocated nomads did not have much homeland.
Feelings, or the need to give up land.
They originally relied on nomadic herding for a living, and those who need subsidies are the cultivators who have never migrated, because the nomads have just migrated, and when they are not resettled, livestock will eat the crops, causing damage to the local people.
Zhuge Liang then remained silent.
The situation of the officials in the East Palace was similar to his. At first, they had some thoughts of expressing their ambitions and competing with Guo Jia, but later they no longer had this idea. They just obeyed the decrees of Shangshu Ling.
By the winter of the 20th year of Xiping, three strategies had been completed and two strategies had been completed.
First, when it came to the veterinary order, Sima Yi found the veterinary orders of the past dynasties from the official list, and also found their disciples. Most of these people were working in the local area to treat people's livestock, or to treat horses in the military.
There are not many of these people. There are eight officials under the Veterinary Order, all of whom are experts in this field. They have many disciples. In the past forty years, the Veterinary Order alone has had nearly fifty people.
Therefore, the number was huge. Under Guo Jia's command, the outstanding ones went to various counties to serve as local veterinary orders and were divided under the command of county magistrates. The elderly people were also gathered by Guo Jia, and they were collected in large numbers like the Imperial Academy.
Recruiting personnel and conducting this kind of teaching so that there are no vacancies in various places. Therefore, in just seven months, this order has been successfully completed, and these new officials have been welcomed in various places.
Their effectiveness has not yet been seen, but as their numbers increase, the number of livestock deaths due to disease will definitely decrease. The increase in the number of livestock will be a great benefit to the people and the country.
The other one is the order to do good to the people. This order seems to be more difficult to implement than previously expected. Guo Jia personally came forward and unified with Zhong Chang to incorporate being good to the people into the Han law.
It is clearly stipulated that officials in various places are not allowed to abuse the people or oppress the people. This order must be extended to the countryside, so that the people know it, and it is posted everywhere. When the governor inspects the people, he must also ask the people. It can be seen that Han law does not allow officials to
Swearing and beating people, this is not the case locally.
This government order was entirely for the sake of the people. Many people felt that such a government order was inappropriate because it would make the people not afraid of officials and disrupt the place. Therefore, Guo Jia added another one. If the people frame officials, it will be a capital crime and disrespectful.
Those who insult officials will be whipped.
In this way, while taking care of the people, you can also properly think about the officials to prevent the people from disrespecting the officials' orders.
The most difficult thing is the mixed residence order. In the mixed residence order, it is not just the nomads who need to move. There are also many Xiongnu speakers in the fortress. The Qiang speakers make a living by farming. It is difficult for them to move. Okay.
Corresponding changes were also made in Guojia. Promoting Yayan among these settled cultivators would prevent Yayan speakers from migrating. In this way, the trend of learning Yayan would arise in various places, which would also be of great benefit to the country.
But precisely for this reason, this matter has not been completed for a long time.
These three policies failed to bring much prestige to Cao Cao, mainly because these three policies would not have much effect in a short time. Everyone only knew about the implementation of the three policies, but they did not know what these three policies could bring to the big man.
What a change, but Situ Cao Cao was not a man who could live idle. When the three strategies were in progress, Cao Cao reported to the emperor again, hoping that the emperor could implement another major strategy.
This order was exactly what Cao Cao had thought of previously, to protect newborns and reduce the rate of premature death in order to increase the population. Not many officials objected to this order, even if they were related to Cao Cao.
No matter how bad it is, they still know the benefits of this decree. The number of people is the most important thing in the country and cannot be underestimated. Even the emperor attaches great importance to Cao Cao's policy and discussed it with all the officials.
Cao Cao wanted the Relief Government to subsidize newborns from poor families, treat sick newborns, abolish the unmarried tax on girls, and advocate the people to pay attention to baby girls. Abandonment and failure to support were both listed as major crimes by Cao Cao. In the Han Dynasty,
, only it is a serious crime for children not to raise their parents, but parents will be scolded for not raising their children at most. But it is different now. If you dare not raise your children again, or throw them away, you will be arrested directly by the local officials in the pavilion!
All the officials were a little surprised. This Cao Mengde worked hard for political achievements. He could come up with such a decree. However, it was rare for the emperor to directly come out to support Cao Cao's decree and even praised it as Xiping's second policy.
Naturally, the officials didn't dare to talk nonsense. The emperor had praised him so much. What else could they do but praise him along with the emperor? Cao Cao was in the court meeting, listening to the officials praising the emperor and himself, and he felt a little bit.
surprise.
The emperor's prestige is getting higher and higher, and now even the officials don't dare to refute him??
Cao Cao's memorial passed smoothly, and the decree was first drafted at the Zhongshutai, then sent to the Shizhongtai for approval, and finally sent to Guo Jia.
The extremely tired Guo Jia accepted the emperor's edict in confusion.
