Chapter 36 36. The ass decides the head (thanks for the support!)

It has to be said that the Land of Fish and Rice is indeed richer than the North.There are small fish and shrimps in the shoals that can be seen everywhere.Rice is also more suitable for Wang Zhi's appetite than corn.

You can say that the king of Wu has ulterior motives and has a heart of disobedience.But you have to admit that the Wu land under his rule, the people live and work in peace and contentment, a thriving scene.

"Kaixuan noodle garden, talk about wine and mulberry."The people of Wu State, with a sense of happiness from the bottom of their hearts, make their movements as comfortable as pastime when they are working.

The three counties of Wu State are Yuzhang County, Kuaiji County, Danyang County, and 53 cities in the three counties.

Liu Bi was Liu Zhong's son, and Liu Bang once made Liu Zhong his acting king.But when the Xiongnu attacked, Liu Zhong could not hold on, so he abandoned his country and fled to Luoyang.Liu Bang was angry and dismissed him as Marquis of Heyang.But Liu Bang's father, Liu Taigong, repeatedly pleaded for Liu Zhong, so Liu Bang had to give in.

Liu Zhong's son Liu Bi was named Peihou.After Yingbo rebelled, Liu Bang personally led his troops to crusade.Liu Bi followed Liu Bang as a cavalry general and defeated the Yingbu army. At that time, Jing Wang Liu Jia was killed by Yingbo.

Liu Bang was worried that the Kuaiji people in Wudi were frivolous and strong, and it would not be possible without a brave and majestic king to subdue them.But his own son was still young, so Liu Bi was named King of Wu, ruling 53 cities in three counties.

According to legend, after Liu Bi paid homage to the official and granted the seal, Liu Bang summoned him, and a fortune teller said that Liu Bi had rebellious appearance.Liu Bang said to Liu Bi: "Your appearance is rebellious."

Liu Bang regretted it in his heart, but he had already worshiped the official and granted the seal, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "Fifty years after Han Li, there will be a rebellion in the southeast. Could it be you? Everyone with the same surname is a family. I hope you will be more careful. rebel."

Liu Bi was frightened and quickly kowtowed, "Don't dare."

Liu Bang is good at employing people.Can he predict what will happen decades later?have no idea.Perhaps when enfeoffing each prince, he used this kind of words to scare each other in private to deter the other party.But the tail of the princes and states cannot be lost, and it has become a fait accompli.Especially Wu Guo.

There are copper mines in Yuzhang County in the state of Wu.Liu Bi recruited desperadoes from all over the world to come here to secretly smelt copper and make coins, and boil seawater into salt in Kuaiji County in the east.

Because minting coins and cooking salt does not pay taxes, the state of Wu is very rich in wealth, and the rich wealth of the state of Wu allows Wu Wang Liu Bi to recruit a large number of desperadoes to form an army.

Due to the possession of copper mountains and salt in the territory under the jurisdiction of Wu State, the people in Wu State did not pay taxes, which made Liu Bi very popular in Wu State.When the soldiers of Wu State went to the garrison according to the regulations, they would be given equal monetary rewards by Liu Bi.

Liu Bi also often visits those talented people in the jurisdiction every year and rewards them in the village.The king of Wu always takes in criminals from other counties and states without "extradition".

During Lu Zhi's dictatorship, a bunch of Liu Bang's sons and grandsons dared not speak up.A bunch of civil servants and military generals left by Liu Bang are shrinking their heads and acting like turtles.

As Liu Bang's nephew, no matter how round the throne is, it's not his turn to be emperor.It's too late to win over someone like Liu Bi who doesn't threaten her.

So Lu Hou dictatorship killed almost all of Liu Bang's sons and grandsons.It was another bloody storm to clear Zhu Lu.

Liu Bi stayed out of the matter, took advantage of other people's struggle for the throne, and took advantage of minting coins to cook salt without paying taxes, and devoted himself to working hard on the economy. Instead, he developed a wild land with a vast land and a sparse population into a powerful country that was as rich as the imperial court.

Proud because of wealth, arrogant because of arrogance.Liu Heng, who ascended the throne as the acting king, was not respected by Liu Bi.

Sandwiched between the group of heroes and the vassal states, Emperor Wen, who pretended to be a seedling, was also very jealous of his cousin King Wu who was ten years older than himself.

After rectifying the hero group with clever and gentle means, Emperor Wen turned his attention to the princes and kings.

Jia Yi, a talented scholar in Luoyang, put forward the policy of "many build princes but less power" based on the historical lesson of "the most powerful will fight first".This is the framework prototype of the later famous "Tweeting Order".

Jia Yi suggested that more princes be entrusted to the original fiefdoms of princes and kings, so as to disperse and weaken their power.After the old prince died, he divided his fief into several pieces and distributed them to his sons.In this way, except for offending the eldest son, everyone will stand with the central government.

This trick of "the masses fighting the masses" makes the power of the princes smaller and smaller, and also makes them lose their ability to resist, and the central government will become more and more stable as a result.

Jia Yi's method of rotten meat in the pot can be regarded as the best way to solve the problem of the vassal king's power.

Therefore, after Qi Wang Liu Ze (the grandson of Liu Fei and the son of Liu Xiang) died, Emperor Wen divided Qi into seven, and distributed them to Liu Fei's heirs.

After Liu You's death, Zhao Guo was also divided into two, the older one was given to the eldest son, and the younger one was given to the youngest son.

Huainan Kingdom was divided into three after Liu Chang's death, and became Huainan, Hengshan, and Lujiang Three Kingdoms.

Except for the eldest son, almost every concubine with vested interests is a converted serf who sings about the beautiful new life, the great leader Emperor Wen of Han, guiding us forward.

And Wu Wang Liu Bi, after the crown prince Liu Qiqi board KO killed the Wu prince Liu Xian, Liu Bi, who lost his heir, actually endured it, endured it!

Emperor Wen's father and son teased Liu Bi's nerves and sent Liu Xian's body back to the state of Wu for burial by the king of Wu.

When he arrived in the state of Wu, Liu Bi, the king of Wu, was very angry and said: "The world is of the same clan. If you die in Chang'an, you will be buried in Chang'an. Why send it back to the state of Wu!"

He sent someone to send back his son's coffin.

From then on, Wu Wang Liu Bi gradually did not observe the etiquette of the vassals, complained of illness for a long time, and did not worship the emperor.

At the beginning, Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, chose Liu Bi as the king of Wu, hoping that he could subdue the sturdy Wu state and help stabilize the Han regime.

Decades later, Liu Bi became a vassal king who harbored resentment towards the imperial court and acted disrespectfully, leading a semi-separatist regime with powerful power and strong people.

Instead of becoming a loyal vassal town of the imperial court, Wu Guo was a threat to the long-term stability of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wen Liu Heng: In the whole world, is it the land of the king?This Liu Bi is so bold!Being arrogant in a rich place, luring the world to be desperadoes and tyrannical, ignoring the emperor's government orders as nothing, after all, you are the carbuncle of my big man, let's see how I deal with you!
Liu Bi, King of Wu: The 53 cities in the three counties of the state of Wu were granted to me by Emperor Gaozu.I am older than you, my waist is thicker than you, I have more money than you, and I am taller than you!What can you do to me?
Emperor Wen Liu Heng: My son KO'd your son to death!Are you against it?As soon as you stick your head out, I'll crush you to death!
Wu Wang Liu Bi: MD, you wear an emperor's hat!Your son KO killed my son, I will endure, endure, endure!My kidney function is not bad, and Sangong Sixth Hospital recreated a human being.Little brother, weak chicken, try to touch me again? !

Emperor Wen Liu Heng: Just try it!See if you dare to oppose it!Wang Zhi, do it for me!
The ass decides the head.Everyone is in their own position, pursuing the maximization of personal interests.

Wang Zhi's butt was naturally on the side of the Han regime.Who made Emperor Wen her father-in-law, the crown prince her husband, and her son the future emperor?

Wang Zhi was thinking, pressing his fingers on the fake beard on his lips.

Liu Bi, King of Wu, for this census, one, check out the bandits and bandits you have taken in, and see who are the fugitives you took in, do you dare to tell the truth; two, you are asked to donate money every year according to the actual population; Three, if you don’t report the factual records of the bandits, you can use the excuse of disrespecting your ancestors and donating less money to cut down the feudal clan and seize the country!
 happy vacation!
