The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Chapter 35: Changes in Bingbei ([-])

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Tian Feng, Xi Zhong, and Dong Zhao wouldn't believe it. The seemingly gentle and elegant prince of Han actually looked like a shrew at this moment.

Can these words be said?

If you say anything casually and the defendant goes up, you will have to peel off your skin even if you don't die.

But when they thought of this person's identity, the three of them were relieved.

This big man, this is the only one who dares to say this now!
"The nobles, relatives, and eunuchs only know how to fight for power and gain in the court, and they don't care about the lives of the people at all!"

"This lord is known to a certain noble eunuch, but why is he a foreign relative?"

It was Tian Feng who spoke. His maternal relative, the Dou family, was wiped out, and the Queen's Song family was also wiped out due to false accusations. Now the only person who can be called a maternal relative is Zhijinwu Dong Feng, but isn't that the lord's uncle?
Moreover, he did not collude with the gang.

"I'm talking about Mr. He, no, he should be called Queen He now."

That's right, in the third year of Guanghe (180), He Guiren was established as the queen, and He Jin also worshiped the minister, the general, and the master craftsman, Henan Yin.

And her son Liu Bian also became the legitimate legitimate son.

"Your Majesty, Queen He is newly established, it's not that bad"

"Then you don't know what that person is capable of. Just wait. If she wants her son to sit in that position, she must act like a monster in front of the emperor's brother. The front and the harem are one, and they will both prosper and suffer. I believe that soon, she will That brother will soar all the way.

It’s true that if one person can achieve the goal of chickens and dogs ascending to heaven, anything can be put on the table. "

Liu Han was complaining while thinking about the famous General He in history. He had no ability and no small arrogance. He was like a monkey but had a crown. He knew the small but planned to be strong. If he were the emperor's brother, he would definitely not appoint Liu Bian as his leader. Emperor, otherwise the He family will be the next Lu family!
The three people sitting there remained silent in a tacit understanding. This matter was not something they could discuss rashly.

"I dare to ask my lord, is there a way to save it?"

Dong Zhao was also a big man suffering from chronic illness, but at a different height, he could not see a way to break the situation.

The fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, full of disciples and old officials, a generation of loyal ministers, Dong Zhao thought that perhaps the prince could join forces with the Yuan family to eradicate the eunuchs first, then eliminate the relatives, and finally restore a bright future to the Han Dynasty!
Of course, Dong Zhao didn't say this.

"Of course there is, but it's very dangerous. I can't talk to you two now. I can only tell you that I'm doing it, and now is the most important step. In my eyes, eunuchs and relatives are just minor problems. , the nobles are a serious problem!"

"Gentlemen? How could it be possible! My nobles all have their hearts set on the Han Dynasty."

"Why not? Emperor Guangwu put an end to Wang Mang's rebellion and promised that the king and the scholar-bureaucrats would rule the world together. It has been 200 years since the king and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together. However, the world has become increasingly poor and the people have been displaced."

"Isn't that because the eunuchs are in power and the administration of officials is corrupt?"

Dong Zhao was the first to retort. He was familiar with the teachings of Confucius and Mencius and could not accept it!
"Then do you know what they have done?
In the court, they control the appointment and dismissal of local officials. The imperial power does not extend to the counties. I don’t know which bastard said it, but it has become the unanimous opinion of the nobles. If things go on like this, corruption will inevitably breed in the empire. Local officials are either nobles or local officials. Do powerful people have a way to survive for ordinary people and Han people?

Outside the court, they invaded fields, embezzled people, raised domestic slaves, and bought and sold salt and iron. These nobles did not rebel. But tell me, what is the difference between doing this and rebelling?
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about this. The small Zhang family in Dingxiang has a staggering amount of wealth, enough to support an army of [-] for three months. Do you know how many slaves he has?

two thousand!

What about the other noble families of the Han Dynasty?Will there be more?If they really unite together, such as the Yuan family in Runan, with many disciples and old officials, and countless collusion with noble families, Mr. Dong, tell me, what do they want to do? "

Dong Zhao was shocked. He was shocked by the scale of the Zhang family in Dingxiang, and even more shocked by what Liu Han said.This is already the case for a small Zhang family in Dingxiang. What about other people?
Among the Han nobles, which one does not have private soldiers under his command?
terrible!
Dong Zhao seemed to see in Liu Han's eyes that the war between the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty would be raging in the future.

"The big man has died, and the nobles have forgotten what Emperor Guangwu said. If the emperor gives it to them, they can have it. If the emperor doesn't give it to them, they are robbing it!

The biggest worm in the Han Dynasty is the nobles! "Liu Han made the final summary of this dialogue.

The three people sitting here are all very smart people, and they know that what Liu Han said is true.

"I dare to ask my lord, is there a way to save it?"

This is Xi Zhicai. He thinks that he is already a wise man, but Liu Han's knowledge is not inferior to him, and even surpasses him in some places. His insight into the Han Dynasty is better than his own.

"Military power! Without military power, it is useless to say anything. Although the northern part of Bingzhou is sparsely populated due to the Xianbei border border all year round, we have to admit that it is an excellent place for training troops and raising horses.

All the powerful people in the five northern counties have been taken down, and the property and land have become the country's. Therefore, this place is the cleanest.

I plan to try out the New Deal here.

[-]. Nationalization of land, that is, all land is owned by the state or the emperor, and ordinary people only have the right to use it, not ownership, and can be rented to them to grow food.

[-]. The population in the northern part of Bingzhou is sparse, so it is unreasonable to collect land tax. Therefore, I plan to collect land tax, and the tax means that they pay some rent.

[-]. In the nationalization of salt and iron, the gentry were not allowed to own private property, and the gentry surrendered all their land and hidden population. Anyone who disobeyed would be killed without mercy.

[-]. Reforming the appointment and removal of officials. The inspection and promotion system has too many drawbacks, but I cannot tell you the method at the moment. "

"My lord, you are trying to cut off the nobles' livelihood, and they will fight you tooth and nail."

The drama loyalists knew that Liu Han's move had visible benefits, but it would inevitably trigger a crazy counterattack by the nobles.

"So, Gu needs an army. As long as Gu's knife is sharp enough, whoever dares to jump out will be destroyed!"

I have a dream in my lonely heart, and I might as well tell you about it today: to establish a heart for the world, to establish a destiny for the people, to carry forward the unique knowledge of the past saints, and to create peace for all generations!

Emperor Gaozu started from a humble beginning and finally conquered the mighty Han Dynasty. As a descendant of Emperor Gaozu and a member of the Han clan, he has conditions that are ten thousand times better than those of Emperor Gaozu. I believe that I can do it! "

"Establish a heart for the heaven and the earth, establish a destiny for the living and the people, for the sacred and inherit the utmost knowledge, and for the peace for all generations."

Tian Feng, Xi Zhong, and Dong Zhao kept repeating these three sentences.

The spirit of exploration, the spirit of responsibility, the spirit of dedication, the spirit of mission, this is the duty of a scholar, and this is what a scholar does throughout his life!
"Before the common people came to Bingzhou, they only wanted to do something for the corrupt Han Dynasty. They could go north to attack the barbarians, or they could work as swordsmen and pen officials. Now that I saw the prince, I realized that I had been too narrow-minded before.

If the prince does not give up, I will be loyal to the prince and create peace for all generations! "

"The same goes for ordinary people. It has been a waste of 25 years. Today, Zhao sees the hope of a man from the prince. If the prince does not give up, Zhao hopes that he will obey him throughout his life."

"My lord, the same goes for Feng! Only my lord can save this big man!"

"Okay, okay! Today I have received two great talents again! It's a revelation!"

"Xi Zhong, Xi Zhicai, pay homage to the lord!"

"Dong Zhao, Dong Gongren, pay your respects to the lord!"
