A single hair move affects the whole body.
What''s more, the Western Region is such a large piece of land, and any slight movement will naturally cause some of the settled dregs to start moving.
It is better to block than to open up.
This is the wisdom left by Dayu.
?This is also the underlying logic behind Feiqian’s strategy.
Forced containment may be useful, but it can only be said to be temporarily useful. It is like the suppressed public resentment in the feudal dynasty. It may not cause any problems for a long time, but once it breaks out, it will It will lead to the collapse of the entire feudal dynasty.
Several great dynasties in Chinese history eventually collapsed due to the accumulation of public dissatisfaction. When people lose confidence in their country, it is undoubtedly the most dangerous moment for the country.
??If the allusions in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period did not attract the attention of the Chinese people, then the execution of the Second Emperor of Qin was at least not the first time that this problem occurred, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the Eastern Han Dynasty...
?Things happen over and over again, and then you can continue to cover your eyes and pretend that the problem does not exist?
?Fei Qian now took off his blindfold.
Fei Qian knew this was a big problem.
Because he knows, he thinks.
Because he thinks more, he tries to do more.
He gives advice, but now he is also looking for solutions. This was a fundamental change after he came to the Eastern Han Dynasty. In later generations, he also had different opinions and was full of complaints. He would spew slanderous words on the Internet, criticizing this and that. But at that time, he only had opinions and no suggestions.
?Now he took a step forward.
?This step was not easy to take, but Fei Qian still gritted his teeth and walked down.
But the problem is that some people have obviously had their blindfolds taken off, but they still put them back on themselves...
In Qinglong Temple, some people are now criticizing Fei Qian.
?Some people are walking along with Fei Qian''s steps, but they are scolding while walking.
Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and curse.
This is the fault of the hussar! 』
A member of the noble clan cleared his throat and made a grand appearance.
He is wearing a light yellow robe, with a square face and smooth beard, red lips and white teeth. On his head is a gold silk scholar''s crown produced by Jinlufang in Chang''an, which is a small Jinxian crown with the beams and pillars removed, and the edges are outlined with gold wire. , quite dazzling. A sachet from the Western Regions hangs on the waist. On the surface of the sachet, there is a graceful dancing figure of a Hu girl embroidered with silver thread, sparkling in the sun. There is also an inlaid jade buckle on the belt, and the gold-painted fan in his hand is fanning constantly, which makes him look more elegant and suave. Just looking at the appearance, he really looks like a banished immortal.
?This man looked sad and full of pity, and then he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Oh my god!" The people in the Western Regions are suffering very much! This is all the fault of Hussar! What a shame! 』
As soon as such a high-level talk came out, it naturally attracted many people to gather together.
There are few entertainment projects in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Everyone is very happy to watch the excitement.
Yo! Isn''t this Brother Zhang? "Someone recognized this person and said hello, "Brother Zhang, why is he... dressed in an extraordinary way today..."
The scholar Zhang coughed and said, "As the sages say, don''t judge people by their appearance!" Clothing is a small way. Today I came to Qinglong Temple because I wanted to discuss with the sages what the country should do! 』
Being shiny comes at a price...
?This outfit is certainly not cheap!
Zhang Shizi''s heart was bleeding. If you rent a set of clothing like this, you won''t need to ask for a deposit. The rent for five days will cost 5,000 yuan!
A thousand dollars was spent every day as soon as he opened his eyes. It was like killing him and cutting off his flesh. The pain made him gnash his teeth and hate the hussar even more!
??Damn Hussars, why don''t you arrest all the vendors who sell goods at high prices? Doesn''t Hussar know that these merchants sell them so expensively? Since Hussar knew about it, why did Hussar still let it be sold at a high price? This is all Hussar''s fault!
Yes, he doesn’t have to rent, but what can he do? He felt that he wanted to attract attention and win more likes. If he didn’t dress more sparkly, how could anyone look at him? How could anyone discover his inner excellence and wealth of knowledge when no one is watching?
In order to wear this outfit, he lived frugally...
Just for today!
?Seeing that more people had gathered, Zhang Shizi''s cheeks turned slightly red, she pulled her neck, slapped the gold-painted fan in her hand, "Everyone!" I was observing the sky one night today and saw the Greedy Wolf star in full bloom! This is a sign of military disaster! It should be in the Western Regions! What a pity! The people of the Western Regions had not been in peace for a long time, but they suffered another misfortune! Alas! We, the people, are so unworthy and so miserable! 』
As soon as this statement came out, many people sighed with emotion.
Zhang Shizi suddenly felt happy, and even put on a sad expression on his face. It''s righteousness to be the first to win!
?As long as you mention the people, you will be three points safe!
“The Western Region is in chaos, the caravans are cut off, and the economy and trade are blocked, which is particularly a small loss...” Mr. Zhang patted his golden fan to increase his momentum with his words, “It is a great regret for the people who moved to the Western Sea! The people suffered misfortunes and were displaced! The family is ruined! How terrible! Every time I think about this, my heart feels like a knife..."
?The scene became somewhat quiet.
The people surrounding Zhang Shizi looked around, as if they were looking at the performance of others to decide what expression they should adopt. It was obvious that they were not too sympathetic to what Zhang Shizi had just said.
Naturally, there was no group of people sighing after Zhang Shizi, which made Zhang Shizi''s originally prepared speech somewhat stuck and unable to speak.
‘Uh…’ Zhang Shizi’s eyes swayed from side to side, and then he understood a little. The nobles who surrounded him were all young. Perhaps they had not yet felt the difference between life and death, or perhaps they did not care about the more basic level of the Guizhou leader. How could they have any special feelings about the life and death of the people in the Western Regions?
They care more about money…
Because there have been problems in the Western Regions during this period, the prices of various commodities in the Western Regions have been rising, which has resulted in these gentry children having to spend more money to obtain the same products from the Western Regions. They need to hold cultural meetings, buy new clothes, drink fine wine, ride BMWs, and have more places to spend money. Now that they spend more money on Western Regions products, naturally they have less money in other areas, which makes these The gentry children were very unhappy.
Zhang Shizi raised his eyebrows and quickly changed his strategy, "There is chaos in the Western Region and people''s livelihood is in ruins!" Prices are skyrocketing and everything is inflated! If things go on like this, it will do great harm! 』
That’s right, isn’t it! 』
Brother Zhang’s words make sense! 』
?This time there was a response, and there was chaos for a while.
Who can’t make a fuss? Just a few words, it doesn’t cost money anyway. Especially Zhang''s words touched their hearts. It is hard to make money these days, but it is easy to spend it. Living in Chang''an is not easy. The money brought by the family is flowing out, and they don''t have much income. Logically speaking, since they can''t afford it. Just control your own desires, but the question is who wants to control their own desires? Why can''t someone else control it? I still want to eat, drink and have fun, but I also want to spend less or even no money, so that would be perfect.
Its from the Western Regions are too expensive now! 』
The spices have been quadrupled! What a money grab! 』
Yes, yes! Even the barbaric women from the Western Regions were so obsessed with money... uh, what do you think I''m doing? 』
…』Everyone was strangely quiet for a moment.
Everyone, everyone! Seeing that the building was a little crooked, Mr. Zhang quickly pulled back and said, "Today''s chaos in the Western Regions was caused by Lu Fengxian''s rebellion!" And who is Lu Fengxian? Bingzhou Yiwufu is also! How can such people, who do not understand the truth and are greedy for enjoyment, be worthy of such great responsibilities? ! Since he is useless, Hussar just entrusted him with the duty of protecting the capital. Dare I ask who is at fault? 』
Everyone was in an uproar.
This angle is so sharp...
And it does seem to make sense to say so?
“Now that the Hussar is taking over Yongliang on behalf of the emperor, he should be cautious and cautious. How can he act emotionally?” Nowadays, the chaos in the Western Regions is caused by the faults of Hussar and others who are not aware of it! This is one of them! 』
Seeing everyone starting to discuss, Mr. Zhang felt even more proud.
Second, since Lu Fengxian was appointed and there was no supervision, it was left to him to do whatever was wrong in the Western Regions! Since the hussar is the leader of the officials in Xijing, he should have the responsibility of reminding, correcting, supervising, and stopping him. But why should the hussar do this? This is the fault of Hussar''s indulgence! 』
The world is now gradually becoming more peaceful, and the local area has not been alive for a long time. How difficult it is! However, Qiaoqi knew that Lu Fengxian had acted rebelliously in the Western Regions, but failed to deal with it in time. As a result, the lives of the Western Regions are now in ruins and the people are miserable! How innocent the people are! This is the third fault of Hussar! 『Now Duke Zheng is ill, and there is no one to give him direct advice! Although I am not talented, I cannot bear to see the rest of the Western Region and my third assistant! I don’t want to see the people in poverty and the people hanging upside down! Don''t shy away from tabooing the fault of the hussar and the fault of the minister! Therefore, today I speak out and remonstrate directly, and go straight to the fault! 』
Everyone, everyone! 』
『Someone has a suggestion, please listen carefully! Seeing that the time was ripe, Zhang Shizi took out a scroll full of words from his arms, unfolded it with trembling hands, and read aloud, "There is chaos in the Western Regions now, and the people should remonstrate directly!" Execute the traitors and sycophants as soon as possible to clear up the affairs of the Western Regions! It is beneficial to national affairs, and loyal advice will not be spared! How can the hussar be allowed to do harm to the country? The ruins of border affairs are all caused by unclear rewards and punishments for merits and crimes! The unclear rewards and punishments are all due to Lu''s mistakes in his duties! Everything he failed in his duties was all due to the cavalry''s lack of vision! 』
Hey! It is not surprising that the hussar holds great power and the ministers are obedient. However, after Zheng Gong, there is no one who can give direct advice! The officials in the Western Regions were afraid of Lu Fengxian''s power and were cautious about speaking out. They were afraid of Lu''s poison and would harm their lives. They would rather be depressed all day long and did not dare to speak freely and clearly! He only obeyed Lu''s orders in everything and did not dare to stand upright and fight for the people. Therefore, even though he was robbed by Lu Fengxian''s accumulated prestige, he could not be said to have done anything wrong in Hussar! 』
『Appeal! It is not surprising that the officials in the Western Regions are afraid of the power of the Lu family. However, with the ability of the hussar, their intelligence and decisiveness, how can they not be aware of their hidden evils? If Lu''s evil deeds cannot be known, and if he cannot get rid of them, it cannot be overshadowed by his desire to protect Lu''s dignity, so he must be tolerated in order to damage his own ears. However, I don’t know that the presence of the Lu family in the country is like the presence of weeds in the seedlings or the presence of tigers in the city. One day in power will cause harm! Why can''t Qiao Qi bear to get rid of one thief and endure the misery of millions of people? 』
『The grass-roots people are arrogant and upright in nature. They are born in the sky and cannot be changed. They practice loyalty and righteousness. They are learned from the scriptures and cannot be destroyed! Every time I hate the thieves in the world for causing chaos, I can''t sleep peacefully! Today''s advice does not seek to gain praise or fame, but only to calm the people''s grievances and calm the hearts of the people! If you are interested, you can go with me to General Hussar''s Mansion and write a letter of direct remonstrance! 』
Go to Hussar Mansion to write a letter?
Playing so big?
Immediately, everyone''s eyes lit up, and even the good people who saw the excitement did not mind the big deal. Suddenly they burst into cheers, which made Mr. Zhang feel even more proud. Amidst the roar of the sound, he raised his neck as if he was immediately It''s like turning into a feather and ascending to immortality.
…(^ω^`)…
There was a lot of noise in Qinglong Temple, but Youwensi in the city was busy but quiet.
? Pang Tong and Kan Ze were sitting opposite each other, looking through the relevant information collected by Youwen Division over the past period of time.
Leaders must withstand more wind and rain.
Just like when the wild geese form a formation, the wild goose who is always the leader needs to have a stronger body, a sharper sense, and a tougher endurance. It needs to find the direction and determine the journey. And the current leader of the Xijing political group is undoubtedly Fei Qian, who naturally has more hardships and more burdens.
All Pang Tong, who was following Fei Qian, could do was to reduce Fei Qian''s burden as much as possible so that Fei Qian could focus more on the choice of direction.
In fact, many people know that the political system of Dahan actually has problems. But knowing a problem and being able to solve it are always two different things. Just like most people know that they have a problem of lack of money, but can they say that once they know the problem, the problem of lack of money will be solved immediately?
Money is printed by the state.
?So the lack of money is the fault of the country?
After all, the country also knows that some people are corrupt and bend the law, and that there is inequality between rich and poor in some places, right?
In fact, many problems are intertwined with each other. If only one of them is solved alone, it is still difficult to avoid the short board effect, and water will still leak out from the shortest side.
Land was the greatest source of interest for the feudal dynasty.
The landlord class was the driving force and the greatest resistance to the feudal dynasty.
The two emperors of Yan and Huang discovered that the value of land far exceeded that of cattle and sheep, so they joined forces and beat up a group of surrounding children, and then beat away their boss, and finally established their status in the Central Plains of China.
That''s right, since the creation of words in ancient times, "position" has been used, rather than "heaven" or "person".
Without any land, there is still room for a fart?
Not giving up an inch of land is a rule passed down by the ancestors of China. This rule is completely incomprehensible to the surrounding nomadic peoples. Therefore, the transfer of land by the big pigtail dynasties was not a problem for their ideology, because they still had a sweet dream and felt that even if they transferred it temporarily, they would be able to fight it back in the future...
These guys don’t understand that the universe is huge, but there is only one earth.
The status of a feudal dynasty is the amount of territory it occupies.
??If possible, Fei Qian hopes that the flag of the Han Dynasty can be planted in every corner of the earth.
This work cannot be accomplished by Fei Qian alone.
So, the western, northern, and southern frontiers currently being developed by Fei Qian are actually, to a certain extent, experimental fields.
Maintain it carefully and observe it carefully.
Rather than planting randomly and doing things half-heartedly.
Pang Tong can understand this.
??And Pang Tong also really saw the new changes under Fei Qian...
The Chinese feudal dynasty, or the country with the county system, could maintain its upward development, continue to advance outward, and continue to expand and grow, which was inseparable from the efforts of the landlord class. However, due to the limitations of productivity, they were also limited to the village. Heshang believes that only land that can grow food is useful, and he dislikes other land that cannot grow food.
Therefore, when Fei Qian expanded the current Han people''s concept of land and expanded the concept of land, the land that was originally useless in Pang Tong and many Han people''s concepts, the land that could not be cultivated and planted, can now be used It can be used for grazing, mining, resource gathering, etc.
There are gold mines in the Northern Desert and they have been mined.
There are gold mines in the Western Regions and they are being mined. The Sima family has contracted them for twenty years.
There are mountains of gold and mountains of silver in the East China Sea.
There are gold mines, silver mines, iron mines, and copper mines in southern Xinjiang...
Having money can make a devil push a millstone, then having more gold and silver can make a millstone push the ghost.
?Fei Qian broke the shackles in the minds of Pang Tong and others, and also presented an incomplete and undetailed world map based on the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but it was already tempting enough...
This raised the upper limit of the Chinese landlord class.
The title land system raised the lower limit.
A new class of landlords is emerging.
The rise of more industries has made China''s emerging landlord class realize that there are more ways to get rich than just relying on the crops on the land. With the rise of industry and economic development, these have also increased the landlord class''s demand for labor, which has naturally increased the importance of the ruling class to the grassroots population.
Why did most of the early feudal dynasties always show preferential treatment to the grassroots people, and the rulers were also very friendly to the people? Because at that time population was a scarce resource. With the stability of society and the development of population, those good people who were once considered good by the rulers naturally became unworthy. There are more people, limited jobs, lower employment rate, more refugees, lower wages, people are afraid to consume, industrial development is hindered, more people are unemployed, more refugees, lower wages...
As Fei Qian forced these landowners to look away from the land that could only grow Zhuanghe, they now gradually discovered that other industries can also make money, not to mention gold, silver, copper and iron mines, wood can be used Bamboo can be used for construction, bamboo paper can be used to make gold-painted fans, livestock can be used to provide meat, and it can also be used to make felt blankets, sweaters...
Everything is changing, either roaring or moistening silently.
But there are always some people who are unwilling to do so, or have other ideas.
"This is a picture of Wenyuan taking action in the Western Regions..." Pang Tong put down the information at hand, "What do you think, Derun?" 』
In the past, Pang Tong was mainly responsible for the Wen Department, but now it is left to Kan Ze. Generally speaking, Kan Ze is similar to Li Yuanfang. Pang Tong would ask Kan Ze about his attitude and views on certain things from time to time, and use this to To measure or determine whether Kan Ze followed the direction pointed out by Fei Qian.
After all, the position of the Youwen Secretary is not big, but it has great authority.
??Kan Ze said in a deep voice: "Zhang Wenyuan killed people actually to save people." 』
"oh? Pang Tong pinched his chin, "You..."
Before Pang Tong could finish his words, there were rapid footsteps from the outer corridor to the front of the hall.
『Report! There is a son of the Zhang family in Qinglong Temple, who has gathered a group of scholars and wants to go to the Yamen of Huqi Mansion to write a direct remonstrance on the affairs of the Western Regions! 』
