Chapter 1890 Build a framework and posthumously confer Wang
In the mansion of the Hussar General of the Han Dynasty, the communication between Fei Qian and Pang Tong continued.
In Fei Qian’s mind, Pang Tong is probably somewhere between the children of the traditional gentry of the Han Dynasty and the modern concepts he has inherited. He is a transitional person.
How about Xu Shu, who is also under the deer mountain...
Sometimes one''s background determines one''s vision. Although this sentence sounds a bit absolute, it does reflect some realities. There is a big difference between Pang Tong and Xu Shu.
For Xu Shu, Guangzong Yaozu comes first, and then others. This may be because Xu Shu was originally from a poor family, and how many years he has been bullied by aristocratic surnames... Well, having said that, Xu Shu also killed people after all. The law can reduce the reward, but it can''t be said that there is no responsibility at all, it''s just this big man''s law...
So on the whole, Pang Tong’s perspective will be slightly higher, closer to Fei Qian’s, and Xu Shu’s will be lower, roughly the same.
As for Zaozhi and Tai Shiming, one is obsessed with farming and doesn’t care much about other things, and the other is a mortal, and his reaction is a little slow, often with hindsight.
Therefore, basically if there is any important matter, Fei Qian will discuss it with Pang Tong. After all, what Pang Tong can accept is generally understood by other gentry after pondering, but whether he is willing to accept it is another matter.
The laws and systems of the Han Dynasty were simply full of loopholes. It''s like wearing a fishing net on the body. It is true that it is worn, but this Han Lu''s body is full of holes, big and small, and everything on his body is exposed.
Laws are made by the ruling class, so most laws have a back door of one kind or another that provides refuge for the ruling class. Even in later generations, the laws formulated by the so-called capitalist countries that claim to be "the most complete and most standardized" are actually written with a big word "money". Very clear.
Who is the law more "fair" to? The key point is to see who promulgated the law and who wrote it...
Just like the law of the Han Dynasty, it was promulgated by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and then edited by the noble surnames, so it must represent the interests of the emperor and the noble families of the Han Dynasty. How could it be possible to participate in such a profound word game?
In the early Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang''s "Three Chapters of the Covenant" stated that "the murderer will die, and the wounding and theft will be punished." Yu Xi got rid of Qin Fa." This is the earliest law in the Western Han Dynasty.
Then, such a simple law obviously cannot meet the needs of the ruling class, so not long after, Liu Bang said that "the law of three chapters is not enough to prevent traitors", and ordered the prime minister Xiao He to refer to the Qin law to re-enact the Han law. Xiao He added three chapters of "Hu Lv", "Xing Lv" and "Stable Lv" on the basis of Qin Liu Lv, and combined them into nine chapters, called "Jiu Zhang Lv".
Later, there were "Pong Zhang Law", "Yue Gong Law", "Chao Law", "Shen Ming Law", "Tong Diet Law", and "Zuo Guan Law" and "Beneficiary Law", especially during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Enacted the famous "Defamation Law"...
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Guangwu completely abolished the laws of the Wang Mang period, he restored the old laws of the Western Han Dynasty, and vowed to "unravel the complicated and secret laws of Wang Mang, and return the light laws of the Han Dynasty", but in fact, the laws of the Eastern Han Dynasty did not exist at all. On the contrary, it is because of the continuous addition of new laws and regulations, which appear to be numerous and complicated, which has become a problem. Some regulations have different interpretations in different laws, making it difficult for law enforcers even if they want to enforce the law. .
『So, the lord wants to rebuild the law? 』Pang Tong took a breath.
This is a rather huge project, so big that Pang Tong feels a headache just thinking about it. I managed to get three chins, and every time I toss, I lose one. If I go to this project again, I am afraid that the only remaining two and a half chins will not be able to keep...
Fei Qian laughed, shook his head, and said, "No..."
Fei Qian wanted to toss, but the purpose of the toss was not purely to toss, but to divert the attention of the aristocratic family on the one hand, to expand its own influence on the other hand, and to improve the economic strength of Chang''an Zuojin at the same time. How could it be possible? Now, for the sake of the so-called "justice of the law", you have made it clear that you have to fight against the current emperor and gentry, and then go down the old road of Wang Mang?
As the saying goes, enter the village quietly, don''t shoot.
『This is the Senate...uh, the Senate also...』 Fei Qian said slowly, "Because the laws, orders, subjects, and comparisons are complicated and inconsistent, it is difficult to cure adultery and detriment to loyalty and goodness. In Longshouyuan, Qinglong Temple, a courtyard of Shenlu can be opened, and Shenlu sacrifice wine can be set up, and the law can be taught to simplify and clarify the law. In Shiyuan''s opinion, who is suitable for this job? 』
Hearing what Fei Qian said, Pang Tong also understood a little bit. Fei Qian didn''t intend to overthrow the Han law, at most it was to revise, not even revise, it was just a simplification. One word, very wonderful, very wonderful also! This imitates the old things of the "three-chapter agreement" to calm the hearts of the people! Well, if that''s the case, how about letting Wei Xiufu take up this position for the first time? 』
Wei Duan?
Wechsler is the surname of Chang''an, he lives in Sanfu, and he uses it as a sacrificial wine, well, it seems to be good.
Fei Qian pondered, and nodded slightly.
Firstly, it shows that Fei Qian attaches great importance to the local people in Chang''an. How can it not be an important task to deliver the laws of the country?
Although both Fei Qian and Pang Tong knew that this was just a false job and was useless, others didn''t know. As the saying goes, if a staff officer doesn''t have a leader, what''s the difference? Fei Qian is an old Party A. If he really wants to make a fuss, maybe it will make Wei Duan want to die?
At the same time, it is possible to control public opinion within a fixed range, and find something for these idle gentry children in Chang''an to do. Pang Tong obviously understood this aspect, so he suggested it to Wei Duan. After all, Wei Duan can be said to be the local snake of the gentry in Guanzhong , led by him, must be easier to gather popularity than others.
Pang Tong was also guessing, and suddenly added, "If so, the lord may wish to order that Taiyuan, Hedong, Hanzhong, Heluo, Sichuan and other places each recommend one or two township bosses to enter the Senate?" 』
Pang Tong chuckled twice, "If Shandong wants to come, you might as well belong to it!" 』The more people there are, the harder it is to do things, and the more opinions there are, so it''s just a pot of chaos!
『Good! That''s it! 』
Fei Qian laughed loudly, then poured new wine for Pang Tong, the two of them touched each other lightly, they drank together, and then looked at each other and smiled again.
After putting down the wine cup, Fei Qian tapped lightly on the table and said: "When the Senate is completed, the crime of corruption will be discussed first..."
Pang Tong glanced sideways at Fei Qian, then nodded slowly, indicating that he had made a note of it.
The matter of Feihe is no secret anymore.
Many people were waiting to see Fei Qian''s jokes, or some people were waiting when they were dragging Fei Qian and launching into the water.
If it is said that Fei Qian''s punishment is light, there will inevitably be a lot of people jumping out, laughing at the sarcasm, making up Fei Qian''s jokes, and letting children sing them are all basic operations, and it is even possible to use Fei He as a shield to block Resist Fei Qian''s next inspection and clean-up work ahead.
If the sentence is severe, these people will attack Fei Qian from another aspect, such as ruthlessness, indiscriminate closeness, cold-blooded cruelty, fame and reputation, etc. Anyway, it will be between Fei Qian and other Fei surnames. People, or the Pangzi and Huang who are closer to Feiqian, put thorns between them. Look, Feiqian doesn''t even take care of his own family, will he take care of you?
Fei Qian took this into consideration from the very beginning, so he did not deal directly with Fei He for the time being, but asked Fei He to wait at home. It''s just that Pang Tong thought that Fei Qian would let everyone discuss it publicly during the meeting of the General''s Mansion, but he didn''t expect that it would be handed over to the Senate for processing.
『Now that the buildings are standing, just wait for the wind and clouds to rise...』
Pang Tong flicked the wine cup with his finger, and it made a jingle sound, which should be used as an accompaniment.
Zhiyinjian and Senluyuan seem to be two unrelated frameworks, but in fact Pang Tong knows that these are chess pieces laid on the chessboard by Fei Qian, and the content of the two people sitting by the stream under the deer mountain back then. Now seeing a little bit of spreading and realizing, how can we not let Pang Tong feel emotional?
『Today’s joy can’t be rewarded without Qiang cooking! ”Pang Tong said firmly, with a serious face, as if the discussion just now was all gossip, and now he is talking about political affairs.
Fei Qian laughed, and immediately ordered his servants to prepare first.
When I was under the deer mountain, I often made it on the ground, sitting around a copper cauldron, chatting while cooking.
『Send someone to invite Zijing and Zijian to come! Fei Qian simply continued to order, "Prepare some rose apple wine, and enjoy it tonight!" 』
Pang Tong clapped his hands and laughed, repeatedly saying good-bye.
For a moment, laughter climbed over the wall of the general’s mansion, and then gradually drifted with the wind...
…(▽)/ヾ(^▽^ヾ)…
Some places are full of laughter, and naturally some places are full of sadness.
If it is said that there is still some heat left in the vicinity of Chang''an, then in Taiyuan, it is already a little windy, frosty and chilly, especially around the Taiyuan Wang''s mansion, it seems that winter has entered early.
Taiyuan Wang’s mansion was originally the heyday of the family. The natural building system occupies a large area and is extraordinary, but now, the grand occasion is no longer.
It seems that the front door of Wang''s mansion has not been opened for a long time. The original red paint on the front door is cracked, revealing the dark brown wood grain inside. No one seems to have cleaned the moss on the steps, and there are a few weeds that grow tenaciously from the cracks in the stones, showing the stubbornness of life and setting off the current misery of the Wang family mansion.
The Wang family of Taiyuan, who dominated Jinzhong back then, suppressed Wen, Bao, Guo and other noble families. They could even remotely command the Shangdang, and shouted at the head of the Wen family and others.
Now, without waiting for thirty years, the east of the river has already flown to the west of the river.
Wang Yun jumped on the Chang''an city wall back then, and died. However, Li Guo was cruel and did not spare his family because of Wang Yun''s death. After taking control of Chang''an, Wang Yun''s family was slaughtered.
Such a sad news, the old man of the Wang family was naturally hit hard, and died shortly after he was heartbroken. Then Wang Yun''s second son, Wang Chen, was also sick and sad, and he contracted a cold, so he couldn''t survive for a long time. , withered and fell.
Originally, there was only one grandson left in the Wang family, Wang Hei, so there was some hope, but he was entrusted with inhumanity and was plotted against. Alas, the Wang family''s buildings collapsed completely, and now there are only old women and widows, and Wang Hei. The last remaining granddaughter of Yun''s bloodline guarded the last property together, which was the dilapidated Wang''s mansion. Naturally, it was impossible to take care of the facade of the Wang''s mansion, which was as glamorous as it used to be.
Like Wang''s mansion at present, in the countryside, there is a title, which is "extinct household". It''s a family with no males, no offspring to speak of, and naturally no hope for the future.
In addition, Wang Ling, who is now a side branch of the Wang family, has become a bit more mature, and holds an important position under the Hushi, so some vines that were originally attached to Wang Yun''s house in Taiyuan are now basically turned to Wang Ling''s place, basically If it weren''t for Wang Ling, he would send some people to send some food and clothing during the four seasons of the year. I am afraid that the women and children who are left in the Wang''s mansion here would have survived a long time ago. I can''t go down.
Even if Wang Ling takes good care of them, so that the women and children in Wang Yun''s house can live comfortably, that''s all.
Here is like a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples, it will gradually dry up under the wind and sun, and finally only a messy and broken skeleton remains, which will be reduced to fly ash under the file of time.
Many people think that Wang Yun Yifang is already similar to a dead person, just lingering. In fact, not only outsiders think so, even Wang Chen''s widow, Fang Shi, thinks so.
Fang is Wang Yun''s second son and Wang Chen''s wife. She is only in her thirties at the moment. If it is placed in future generations, she will be a beautiful age, but now she looks haggard and withered like an old woman.
Fang''s family only gave birth to a daughter, named Ying, who is still alive today. In the entire huge Wang family mansion, there are only Fang''s maids who have been close to her for many years, and the last three old slaves of the Wang family, who are the last members of Wang Yun''s first house.
However, on this day, in this stagnant pool of water, someone threw a huge stone with a bang, which not only made the pool water oscillate continuously, but also attached to the pool water, desperately absorbing the last bit of moisture in the pool water. The maggot also felt the change, buzzing and hovering...
In the main street of Wang''s mansion, a group of people came in a hurry, then went straight to the front of the Wang''s mansion, and knocked on the door, ignoring the dust and rust that fell from the door that had not been moved for a long time.
The door was knocked and called again, but there was no movement, and no one responded.
The visitor couldn''t help being stunned, and immediately reacted, slapped himself on the forehead, and then hurried along the street, turning to the corner gate of Wang''s mansion...
Not long after knocking this time, an old slave came to open the door.
The person who came didn''t say much, and the first sentence was to ask if Mrs. Fang was in the mansion, and seeing the frightened expression on the old servant''s face, he felt that he was abrupt, so Fang slowed down his tone, coughed a few times, and said that he came from Congratulations. Eager to lose the etiquette, and let the old slave pass on the message, so as to break up with Fang.
The old slave hesitated for a moment, with a somewhat frightened expression on his face, but he still tremblingly told the person to wait, and he turned around to report.
『Tsk tsk, I think back then...』
At this time, people who came to the Wang family''s mansion found that the eaves and tiles were already broken, and weeds were everywhere. In the courtyard, there was only one commonly used road that had not been invaded by grass, and the rest were useless.
The original wing room with carved beams and painted buildings is also dilapidated, not to mention the broken window lintel, but the accumulated dust on it and the cobwebs in the corners are enough to make people feel uncomfortable.
『Tsk tsk tsk...I think back then...』
The visitor sighed again, but there was not much sadness in his tone, but there was a faint sense of gloating at other people''s collapse.
After a while, the old servant of the Wang family turned around and said that Mrs. Fang was welcoming guests in the main hall.
The visitor couldn''t help frowning, obviously feeling somewhat displeased that Mrs. Fang didn''t come out to greet her in person, but soon put on a smiling face again, but this smiling face was like dried orange peel. Mrs. Fang, when she saw the coffin placed in the main hall and the dark vessel faintly exposed behind, her face changed somewhat.
The person who came could not help but cry inwardly, so he simply didn''t enter the hall, and stood in the corridor and said directly: "So that Mrs. Fang can find out, great joy, great joy!" Today, Zi Nianji Wang Situ Zhongyong, specially chased after him as the heir of the Marquis of Anleting! The edict has arrived in Hedong, and it will come soon! 』
Fang''s eyes, like those of a walking corpse, fluctuated slowly, and then suddenly widened, the eye sockets were almost cracked, and a voice like sand and stones came out of his throat, "This...this statement...is it true? 』
When the visitor saw Mrs. Fang in such a shape, he was disgusted in his heart, and wanted to jump up to avoid it, but he held back, rolled his eyes a few times, forced some smiles, and said, "Aha! What did a certain wife do? Really happy! This... Mrs. Fang clearly learned that the angel is coming, and the current mansion is ruined, so it is really not suitable to receive gifts... No, hehe, if Mrs. Fang does not abandon it, the younger brother has a separate courtyard, which is still elegant...』
Fang''s protruding eyeballs retracted little by little, and he laughed hoarsely, like an old crow hooting, "Don''t dare to bother... Since you are the legacy of the Patriarch, you should be conferred here!" Is there any reason to fall on the branch? 』
The visitor shook his face and laughed dryly, "It''s a good intention!" If you hate the angel, then the imperial edict will not be allowed, wouldn''t it be... Mrs. Fang, don''t make mistakes! 』
『The old man has his own sense of proportion...and thank you for letting me know...come! see a visitor out! Mrs. Fang Zhan Weiwei stood up, "I''m old and handicapped, so I won''t be far away!" 』
The person who came turned his lips, shook his sleeves, and laughed dryly. Although he obviously wanted to say something, Mrs. Fang had already turned around and wanted to catch up. The coffin in front of him was really disgusting, so he finally let out a cold snort and left in dismay.
Fang Shi gritted his teeth and walked to the place where he was avoiding people, he couldn''t hold back the surging emotions in his heart anymore, his body swayed a few times, he staggered and fell to the ground, his mouth opened wide like a wounded wild dog, but only uttered small There was a small moaning sound, the lacrimal glands that had been crying for a long time could not secrete any liquid, they just grabbed the ground with their heads, and it took a long time to let out a mournful sound, "Husband..."
