I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 440 Preparing for the Dynasty Change
Even in the early Western Han Dynasty, there were a lot of people working in their own homes, let alone the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods?

"I must follow the example of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!" Zhiyao was inspecting Shi's army.

The current era allows working from home and allowing the existence of family private troops. This is exactly what Zhiyao needs to make changes, but he understands that he cannot take too big a step.

Who made the offices dedicated to office work appear?It's a bit difficult to say, but what can be confirmed is that it happened in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

In fact, it is not so difficult to understand. In terms of powerful kings, there are not many who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Emperor Wu of Han after the death of Qin.

In the Han Dynasty, not only the official uniform system was confirmed, that is, the clothes of what rank and color, but also many strict regulations were made, including the fact that officials must stay in the official office.

As for why it wasn't completed in the first emperor's reign?Maybe the first emperor didn't care, or maybe he didn't realize the importance.

Take Lu Buwei at that time as an example. After Lu Buwei became a prime minister, his place of residence became a prime minister's mansion, which is equivalent to his own residence becoming a public office.This kind of situation was so common in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States that no one thought there was anything wrong.

"Your Majesty, the matter of taking sex together can be done this year." Shi Yangsheng is considered to be of the same age as Zhiyao, and he understands Zhiyao's strengths better.

The fact that the Yuan country's army must be uniformed is actually Zhiyao's interference with the families.

In the past, what color of shirts each family wanted to use and which style of uniform to choose was their own decision, which was the conclusion, and the monarch could not interfere at all.

The Zhi family's shirt style will become the uniform of the Yuan country's army, and Zhi Yao chooses to intervene from the weaker family.

For example, Shi's acceptance is equivalent to opening a door for the monarch to interfere with other families. With the first family that chooses to accept, it is not so easy for other families to refuse.

"It's okay to get the par price from Zhishi." Zhiyao must let them understand that it's really not for Zhishi to make money from selling cloth!
The change started from interfering with the uniforms of various families. A hole was opened, and the next things would be much easier to handle, such as confirming the solemnity of public power.

The era when public power and private power were not separated belonged to the era of classical aristocracy. There was a long transition period for changing the clear boundary between private power and public power. It can be regarded as a transitional period, but it was not until the Northern Song Dynasty that it became a watershed. After that, it became a confirmed rule to work in the public office.

So, when it comes to centralization, the system may have been formed during the Qin Empire, but there are too many shadows left over from the system of pilgrimage. The emperor is strong enough to maintain the authority of the central government, but that is the case when the weak emperor reigns. The power is to maintain the authority of the central government, and it is they who ensure the centralization of the central government, completely ending the era of classical aristocracy, and at the same time bringing the era of aristocratic families to an end.

In the future, it can no longer be said that the Song and Song Dynasties made no contribution to history at all. Apart from being bullied miserably, they at least made some other contributions.

Zhiyao didn't think about taking one step to the end, that is, spanning so many years, directly evolving the system to an exaggerated level.

Setting up a public house and changing the system of visiting the Hajj is the first step, and it will not be too drastic, so that some people will not leave their eyes, and in the process, they will also weaken their control over their own fiefdoms, and will gradually change from the classical The era of enfeoffment transitioned to the post-enfeoffment era.

What's the meaning?It is enough to understand the enfeoffment system of the Western Han Dynasty.

Ji Zhou became the co-lord of the world, and not only the surname Ji was entrusted, the rest of the historical legacy was fully respected, and some foreign races were also awarded.

There were two enfeoffments in the Western Han Dynasty, the first time regardless of blood relationship, and the second time it was confirmed that it was not the Liu surname or the king.This second time later became the standard of all dynasties, and being a king with a different surname is almost the same as wearing a rebel hat on the head.

After receiving the review, the private army of the Shi family will set off to various places to destroy the remnants of the Wei family hiding in the mountains and forests.

Shi's enlistment of the army is regarded as a tax, but it has changed from a national war to an internal garrison.Here is another change.

In the past, it was the scope of Sikou's business to wipe out all kinds of small-scale resistance forces in the country, and the family of the person serving as Sikou was usually responsible for dispatching troops.

Now, those things are still Si Kou's business, but Si Kou can mobilize the private soldiers of various families from the "battle zone" and bring them under his command for unified command. This alone means that the state has reached out to each family.

Zhiyao looked at Cheng Shuo, Shi Yangsheng, and Fan Gao who were talking, and said softly, "Shi family, Fan family, and the rest are Han family, Hu family, Zhong family, Yu family, Zhang family, and Gao Gao family... , are all like this."

There are so many families in the original country?
In the past, it seemed that only Zhi, Han, Hu and Zhong were left in the Jin Kingdom, but the reality is that the presence of the Qing family is too strong, covering up the presence of the rest of the families. Otherwise, the surviving families in Jin Not much.The non-high-ranking families have become vassals. Without autonomy, they naturally have no sense of existence, and everything seems quite reasonable.

The establishment of the Yuan Kingdom changed many things, including the freedom of some vassals who were formerly a noble family of the Jin Dynasty. They became a family of the Yuan Kingdom and no longer followed the old patrons.

Isn't being a family of Yuanguo equal to a power that Zhiyao can justifiably use?In this way, Han's, Zhong's and Hu's were weakened, and the methods would not appear drastic.

Sometimes Zhiyao is very complacent, but now she is thinking: "Reform is not called making a big noise, but the best way is to make changes in a subtle and silent way!"

In the past, Zhiyao rushed to turn her family into a country, and there were many things she could do but didn't do.

The Zhi family has turned the family into a country, and is moving towards the goal of changing the dynasty, and certain things can be carried out at the same time.

When Zhiyao left, she left some books for Shishi.

When passing by Fan's fiefdom, Zhiyao also left some books behind.

Those books are the textbooks designated by the center, and private goods are indispensable in the content.

Will Shi and Fan use textbooks?They will definitely use it!

The reason is that books in the current era are hard to come by, and a book can be regarded as a family heirloom in the long run.

Whoever has learned the article will have the idea of ​​which one. Is there any need to talk about questions like this?
"The achievement of a widow is not to be a king, but to make paper to facilitate the spread of culture." Zhiyao said.

Sima Rangju, who was in the same car, agreed very much, thinking: "Even if the Zhi family does not turn the family into a country, but the paper comes from the Zhi family, it will surely make it last forever and be remembered by all generations."

Because of Zhiyao's changes in history, plus the many things she will do in the future, maybe she can really live forever?

They patrolled around the south and arrested hundreds of people who were suspected of assassination. After interrogation, there were unjust and wrongly convicted cases. Most of the assassins identified as assassins were remnants of the Wei family, and a few came from various countries.Assassins from all over the world are not necessarily instigated by anyone, they simply want to be famous.

In the words of those assassins, it is: if they can kill Zhiyao, they will surely be famous through the ages.

This kind of thing is very common. Someone doesn't necessarily have a grudge against anyone. Being able to kill someone is bound to cause a sensation. They are willing to give it a try.

What some assassins said was quite correct, only because Zhiyao had annexed many countries, the assassination would have a tolerable foothold.

Zhiyao didn't make a fuss about these assassins, and killed them all after the interrogation, which really made many people's hearts fall to the ground.

Those who became relaxed were not because they participated in the assassination, but because they were very sensitive to the assassination.

It's all because Zhi Shi used the excuse of being assassinated to do too many things, which scared them too much!

Han Geng and Hu You met Zhiyao's team at the place "Xia".

After Zhong Quan was summoned, he went to "Puyang" to do what a ruling party should do, and he had a faint sense of focusing on Sun Wu.

After a serious greeting, Han Geng asked, "I heard that you are an envoy from other countries?"

Yes.

Calculating the time, the envoys from the Yue Kingdom should have arrived in "Puyang".

There are also envoys from Chu State on their way.

Not to mention the rest of the princes, they want to be a good person, how can they not send people to the original country?
Zhiyao said: "Is there any rumor about Qin?"

Han Geng immediately replied: "The envoy of Qin has already passed Hexi."

The founding of Zhishi changed too many things.

The original country won the battle of founding the country last year. What the countries need to figure out most is the foreign policy of the original country to determine how to get along with the original country.

Of course, Chu, Yue, Song, and Zheng are selective.The positions chosen by other small pocket countries cannot be easily changed, and they do not have that qualification.

"The widow is going on patrol at this time, which means to relax." Zhiyao said.

The king of a country is not here, the original country is not the Jin country, and it is not a powerful "Qing" who can decide anything. The diplomatic missions of various countries can only start formal contact when Zhiyao's tour is over and return to "Puyang".

Hu You said with a smile: "The princes are newly defeated."

Zhiyao smiled indifferently and didn't say much.

It's not that Zhiyao has any opinion on Hu You or Hu Shi, but the truth is that Hu Shi is not good at judging some situations.

This is also quite normal. It has been almost 20 years since the Fox family returned to China, and some thinking is still obvious, thinking that strength is everything, but Zhu Xia is not that kind of game at all.

On Zhuxia's side, the weak can use many means to turn the tables. They don't necessarily succumb to the will of the powerful country. On the contrary, there is a greater chance that they will choose to unite to resist the powerful country.

Zhiyao made her words clearer, and said: "Under the age of two, you must sort out the housework, and don't neglect changing clothes."

Maintaining the uniformity of the shirts is a start, and then the weapons and equipment of each family will also be fully updated.

Han Geng and Huyou looked at each other, not at all unhappy that they would soon spend a lot of money, on the contrary they were happy because they could get a large amount of new equipment from Zhishi.

"I would like to use the state's method to provide it to individuals. The problem is that doing so will force them to rebel, so we can only do it step by step." Zhiyao thinks that it will not exceed ten years, and she can still wait.

Ten years is also a bottom line for Zhiyao to clarify the bottom line in the country. By then, Zhiyao will be in her forties, and it will not be too late to start a unification war by then!
