User Upload Chapter Volume 11 Empire Turmoil Chapter 1 Chaos Autumn
.The chaotic autumn
Under the dispatch of the fourth son Liu Zi and Sun Ce and others, the Xianbei rebels who ambushed Liu Xiesheng's lord were quickly eliminated and the army reorganized. In case of precautions, the battlefield was evacuated without cleaning. It was already that night when we arrived at Yanmen Pass, and the next day, the guards of Yanmen Pass were arranged to rectify the battlefield.
Liu Xie continued to cross the Taihang Mountains and arrived in Tianjing City with the Chinese 20th year.
Liu Xie rushed back to Tianjing so quickly, which surprised Xun, Chen Qun and others. All officials and ministers went to the West Gate to pick up the horse. The residents of Tianjing were also notified that hundreds of thousands of imperial people gathered outside Tianjing, waiting for Liu Xie's return.
As the emperor of the Han Empire and the Pope of Taoism, Liu Xie's prestige in the empire has indeed reached a peak that cannot be reached. Although there are countless small cracks in the empire, these problems have been concealed under Liu Xie's personal prestige and the worship of the people. Even Liu Xie, who is so smart, cannot detect all this.
The moment Liu Xie got off the car, hundreds of thousands of people bowed to the ground. This scene shocked Sumeril. He could not imagine that as the emperor of the Han Empire, he could have such a high prestige, and this scene would always have a profound reflection in his heart.
The construction of Tianjing City has never been interrupted. I think it is better than three years ago. Although it cannot be described as earth-shaking, the continuous promotion of the entire outer city has far surpassed the city in terms of urban scale. The vast and majestic city walls and the traditional Han style along the street carry a large number of magnificent buildings with magnificent Roman architectural ideas. The broad roads, the prosperous business, and the lively and prosperous citizens all prove to the world the prosperity and prosperity of the Han Empire.
Liu Xie returned to Huaxia Plaza and entered the Central Imperial Court directly. Regardless of his physical fatigue, he immediately convened a meeting of the Academy of Staff. Chen Qun, Xun, Zhou Yu, and Jia Xu all arrived, and Liu Xie planned to let Yang Xiu come too. However, Chen Qun secretly used gestures to suggest Liu Xie. Liu Xie thought of Chen Qun avoiding the Military Machinery Academy under Yang Xiu, and was slightly shocked. He immediately put down the matter and stopped asking more questions.
Zhuge Jin, Xi Zhicai, Zhang Zhao and others also came to attend the first aide meeting held in three years at the invitation of Chen Qun. After Chen Qun drafted the list of local aides, Liu Xie directly asked Chen Qun: "What's the matter? I'm so anxious to get me back. Can't you deal with it?"
Chen Qun and others knelt down and said, "Sage Bingzhang... I am not doing my job well. King Anding was still orphan at that time. Now it is in full swing. The two states of Yan are in trouble!"
Liu Xie thought a little and asked, "Cao Cao, Meng Jian are all here, and there are Zhao Yun and others. You are in charge of the capital. What is the danger of this matter?"
Chen Qun whispered: "Cao Cao died of his head for more than three months, and there were riots in Yan and Yan. Therefore, General Cao left a message that the emperor should not reveal evil news before the emperor returned to the capital. The rebellion in the two states involved a population of one million, with 200,000 rebels. He gathered in the north of the desert. When General Cao left, General Zhao Yun could not go on an expedition to defend the embankment. In addition to this matter, due to the rapid promotion of the Chineseization and promotion, various places were somewhat resistant. The emperor was still able to stay in the country. Here he went to the three places.
Over the years, there were small-scale conflicts everywhere, and large-scale gangs and clubs were formed in the Zhiluo Mansion. Another thing was also under pressure. During the implementation of the Guangluo project, 300,000 servants fled into the Dabie Mountains. They formed bandits and the leader claimed to destroy the Han King. There were destruction matters in various places, and many servants defected to the Dabie Mountains. Because these things were connected one by one, my ministers and others believed that if the emperor did not return, there would inevitably be changes in the empire!”
Liu Xie asked someone to take clean water, wash his face, and try his best to get rid of his fatigue. He then applied a cold towel to his face, and then said: "Let Pang De take over the position of General of the Northern Expedition, posthumously named Cao Cao as Duke of Xingzhou, and buried in the Xiling Garden with state gifts. Zhou Yu led the Nanjun and Jingzhou, and the Yangzhou garrison troops to Yuzhou to deal with the destruction of Han King, Pang De and Huangfu Dan to deal with the rebellious people in the north. As for the matter of forming a party and building a society, there is no need to alarm the snake for the time being. I don't want to do too many major moves in a row. I will deal with internal and external military first. The Central Imperial Court is preparing to launch war reserves and mobilize food, grass and weapons to the two major war zones. Is the most important reason why you hope I will come back? Let's talk about it, there must be other things!"
Chen Qun replied: "There are three more questions. One is how to deal with the son of Anding King, the second is the murder case of Lu Zhishen and Lu Fu. I don't know how to judge. Third, Mi Zhu set up a private vault in Jiangxia, and his deposit amount is as high as 600,000 kilograms. I don't know where to come from. 1 6k Novel Network, mobile station www.piaotian.com.cn. The three things are all serious, and the ministers and others dare not make it lightly!"
Liu Xie took a deep breath. These were all difficult problems. He stood up and walked slightly, and said to everyone: "I am tired today. Let's go back first. Chen Qun and Ma Liang can stay with me. In a few days, I will handle these matters properly!"
The ministers hurriedly left. After everyone left, Liu Xie immediately asked Chen Qun and Ma Liang, "When did Mi Zhu's gold accumulate?"
Ma Liang said: "From the archives, it already existed before the Jingshan Foundation. Is the earliest deposit of money or the twelve years of Chutai? That is, after he became a state businessman, he continued to accumulate private wealth. If it was dealt with, the Jingshan Foundation would be exposed. If it was not dealt with, it would violate the law. From this point of view, major state businessmen may have private wealth. The fundamental reason is that the legal system is missing. Many incomes are not listed as income at all. The loss is the empire, and the profit is the land of their own. Although it was submitted in large quantities, part of it was also hidden privately. With Mi Zhu, he could accumulate so much wealth, so the other state businessmen might have accumulated a lot!"
Liu Xie was dizzy and didn't know what to do. Chen Qunfu said: "The Yang Xiu family also has a similar situation, and the stock is not low!"
Liu Xie asked again: "Why did Mr. Lu kill someone, and who was the one who killed?"
Chen Qun said: "It is unknown why he killed people. If it were ordinary people, we would deal with it. But Lu Fu refused to say what the reason was that he killed Sima Yi's son Sima Shi. Moreover, he killed the land in front of everyone, which made us even less sure what to do. If we don't investigate according to the law, we may be angry with the public. If we follow the law, we are afraid that the emperor will blame the crime. The emperor can only wait for the emperor to come back to use the emperor's power to pardon. However, the Sima family is not a small clan. How to deal with it is a problem!"
Liu Xie said angrily: "I don't believe that you didn't find out the reason. Let me tell you first why you killed someone!"
Chen Qun said: "It's just that ordinary teenagers are fierce, and it is said that they are mixed with some private affairs. Both of them fell in love with a young actor Long Yang!"
Liu Xie was furious and slapped the table and shouted: "Nothing!"
Re-questioned, "Is this kind of male pet trend so rampant in the capital? Even the children of such famous families have caused such a thing?"
Chen Qun said: "If today's peace and prosperity are coming, there are indeed more and more such things. I don't know what to do with it!"
Liu Xie patted his head hard. This kind of male favor style is not handled well. It is not good to let it develop. It is even more bad to put it in the Lu family and the Sima family. Even the children of famous scholars have caused such a thing, so the impact will naturally be even worse. He said, "I am afraid that the people are laughing at this matter. I will deal with it according to the law. Even the Lu family must handle it according to the law. The Sima family will also be punished with fifty slaughter. The crime of incompetence for Sima Yi and the annual salary is fined for three years. It is also a warning to this trend!"
Chen Qun said: "I think this matter can be strictly grasped, which has a negative impact on the civilized and cultural trend of our Han Empire!"
Liu Xie shook his hand and said, "Forget it, there is no need for a law, just make a decision. Just catch it in the open, and forget it in the dark. Some things are not to catch it, nor to not catch it. So just turn a blind eye. If you really want the law, then how should you comment on the Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty, etc.? Isn't this my own slap in the face? But the atmosphere is going to be killed and you can't appear blatantly. Especially if you are jealous of these things, it's even more unstoppable. These rich children are really causing trouble for me!"
"As for Mi Zhu's matter, I and him will handle it privately and cannot be released to the public for the time being. Including all companies within the Jingshan Foundation, all companies must strictly re-examine it. As for those outside the Jingshan Foundation, those who are not only in the country, civil and commercial enterprises are greedy for national interests, they will be investigated and dealt with according to the law. No one can be spared. After King Anding, you know what to do. You don't need to ask me, and don't ask me again!"
Liu Xie's words were already clearly stated what to do. Chen Qun and Ma Liang naturally did not dare to ask any more questions. They were about to leave, but Liu Xie said: "Ma Liang, tomorrow we will convene all the financial and economic scholars in Beijing, and you will preside over the leadership of the tax rate, statistics, audit work and procedures of the Han area, compile new regulations, and make up for existing loopholes!"
Ma Liang responded and retreated with Chen Qun, leaving Liu Xie alone in the Imperial Palace to think. As the wealth of the Han Empire increased, the average wealth level of the people of the empire and the wealthy families increased. It is necessary to increase some entertainment life appropriately. Otherwise, these noble children would compete for these romantic and tragic things all day long. After all, the elites of the Han Empire would gradually become extravagant. Extravagant is not a crime. What they are afraid of is that they only know how to be extravagant, but they do not have a trace of the quality of the great country. They would not be anything except jealousy.
As for the issue of forming party and building a society, as the Imperial Government adopted the election system, these people who wanted to take office and participate in the imperial governance would naturally gather together. Forming a party group for common interests is also a very normal objective problem. Purely relying on violence cannot solve these problems. How to guide them with the flow is a very important thing.
The involvement of corruption among state businessmen is a new model of empire corruption. It is precisely because of the corruption and businessmen that such problems arise. It is unrealistic to just rely on morality and law to restrict them.
Chinese people have always liked to use moral and legal constraints to solve the problem of corruption, but facts from all generations have proved that this is unrealistic. The fundamental reason for the emergence of corruption is the problem of the political system and is a manifestation of bureaucratic groups protecting the interests of the group. Constraining with existing morals and laws can indeed have a certain effect, but in the long run, it is easy to collapse.
Liu Xie realized that it is difficult to solve the three problems of corruption in the empire's work style, formation of gangs and corruption, relying solely on moral education and law to restrict it. It is impossible to fundamentally solve the related problems. There is only a new way of thinking to solve them.
Today, the Han Empire has four important problems that all Chinese dynasties have, including corrupt work style, formation of gangs and corruption, and the northern desert crisis. In addition, there are several problems that other dynasties do not have in the Han Empire, such as low average consumption capacity, slave conflict, etc.
Liu Xie couldn't help but sigh. It was easy to save an empire in crisis, and it was also easy to push it to a peak, but it was indeed very difficult to make this empire last for a long time. He knew that if he could not solve some basic problems, it would be even more impossible for Liu Yi and Liu Wei to solve them. Only by laying the foundation of the Han Empire more solidly, can his descendants control such a huge empire.
Liu Xie was also very clear that as of now, the development of the Han Empire has reached a certain limit. The most important thing at present is to completely eradicate the evil diseases of some empires. Only by solving these problems can the Han Empire still move forward steadily after losing itself.
As for King Anding, for the current Han Empire, as long as you come back and sit in Tianjing to conduct local dispatches, you will not be able to make any big fuss, and you can also take the opportunity to completely solve the problem in Mobei.
The problem of slave riots is a new problem, and a simple solution may not take effect. The Han Empire now has more than four million slaves. In a healthy and emerging empire, four million slaves are not a fatal threat, but for those empires that are full of crisis, perhaps only one hundred thousand people can completely defeat the empire.
After preliminary judgment, Liu Xie believed that the Han Empire still needed a large number of servants to solve the problem of low-cost empire infrastructure construction, and it was obviously unrealistic to restore their free body. If the Han Empire wants to continue to maintain this speed of progress and development, it must maintain a large amount of low-cost labor.
However, slavery also has its disadvantages. When the labor enthusiasm of slaves is low and the number is too large, it will inevitably pose a great threat to national security. Today's great men have tried this harm, and their labor enthusiasm and productivity must be adjusted accordingly so that the empire can further ensure safety.
After a short rest for several days, Liu Xie took the entire royal family to Yanshan to worship Huangfu Song and worship Lu Zhi. At the same time, he held a formal ceremony to bury Yan Xing's armor in the Xizhen Garden and posthumously named him Duke Longxi.
Taoism does not allow cremation, and all public cemeteries are required to be established. All believers are buried in the cemetery, and ceremonies must be held by Taoism.
