Section 491 Enlist support
Liu Wu hunted for a while, but he was also tired.
He rode his horse, panting for breath as his men dragged back the deer, rabbits, wild boars, and other prey he had hunted.
Liu Che said in a timely manner: "Uncle Huang, why don't you go to the palace with me to rest for a while?" ”
Liu Wu can't wait for this!
After hunting for almost an hour, he was really tired.
Fortunately, there are one or two small palaces around the royal safari grounds in Shanglin Court for the royal family members from the safari to rest and even gather.
What's even more exaggerated is that some palaces have not been inhabited for several years or even more than ten years.
However, the Shaofu still arranged eunuchs and maidservants to work there, and even officials patrolled and regularly inspected the health and environment of the palace.
Not only Shanglin Yuan, but also the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty has the palaces of the Son of Heaven in Guanzhong and Guandong's Luoyang, Xingyang, Xuzhou, Pengcheng, Peicheng, Fengcheng, Bishui and other places.
In particular, the Bishui Palace, over the years, have expanded its scale and increased its various personnel actions, and until now, the Bishui Palace has been the largest royal palace group in the Han Dynasty in addition to the two palaces of Chang'an and the East Palace of Luoyang.
After Liu Che ascended the throne, he also issued an edict in accordance with tradition, ordering the relevant officials of the East Palace of Luoyang and the Bishui Palace to increase and expand the palaces of the two places.
Although, in these two places, Liu Che has never even seen anything like it......
However, Luoyang was the eastern capital of the Han Dynasty, and its status was equivalent to that of the magic capital of the Celestial Dynasty in later generations.
And Bishui is even more remarkable, the status is no different from the site of the Zunyi Conference of the Celestial Dynasty, and it is the holy place of the Han Dynasty.
Fifty-eight years ago, in 209 BC, Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, sacrificed to heaven in Bishui. Yu Shui Zhiyang, that is, the emperor's throne. Establish the foundation of the Han Dynasty. The Bishui Palace is the site of Liu Bang's throne, and the ceremonial guards, altars and related facilities used by Liu Bang to worship the heavens and ascend the throne are preserved in that palace.
It's just the cost of maintaining these palaces. Every year, it accounts for at least 20% of the Shaofu's expenses.
This is also the reason why the emperors of the early Han dynasty were diligent and thrifty, and tried to restrain and reduce the expenses of the imperial palace.
In a dozen years, that number will reach a terrifying 70%!
It truly interprets what it means to have the stinky bones of Zhumen, and there are frozen bones on the road!
After Liu Che ascended the throne, he also had the intention to cut some unnecessary palaces.
It's just that after Liu Che studied for a long time, he found that almost all the palaces were difficult to cut.
If he wants to change a certain palace from the royal family to the civilian, then. The palace needed to be completely demolished.
In this case, the investment may be no less than building a new palace!
So, the matter had to be stopped.
Liu Che had no choice but to decide that he would try not to cause trouble to future generations, build a big palace, and not build a new palace for life? That's impossible!
Liu Wu followed Liu Che into the palace, but he looked around without a heart, and he didn't know what he was slandering.
Liu Che smiled and turned around and said, "Uncle Huang, today I invited Uncle Huang to go out on a safari. Actually, there is something I want to ask the imperial uncle for help, but there are many people in the palace. I was also a little embarrassed, so I specially asked Uncle Huang to come out and talk about it......"
Liu Wu didn't know what was going on at the court today. He was informed before the court meeting that Liu Che was going to hunt with him in Shanglin Yuan.
Therefore, Liu Wu heard this. Immediately patted his chest and promised: "Your Majesty Xià has no difficulty, just give orders." Even if the minister goes to the soup and fire, he will never give up! ”
What Liu Che was waiting for was Liu Wu's words!
"Uncle Huang, when the first emperor was there, Wu rebelled against Liu Bi, fought with the benefits of salt and iron, accumulated force, and contended with the first emperor, and finally it was even more rebellious, and even rebelled, every time I thought about it, I was always a little frightened, the benefits of salt and iron, the benefits of coinage, yesterday can create a Wu rebellion, tomorrow will not create a Qi rebellion, Lu rebellion, Zhao rebellion, I was ordered to ascend the throne with a weak crown, and I can not be as good as the first emperor, although there is an imperial uncle to assist, but I always feel terr......ified" Liu Che turned his head to look at Liu Wu, and bowed deeply: "Uncle Huang is my elder, With the first emperor's flesh and blood compatriots, I think about it, in this world, only the emperor's uncle can help me, Anzong Temple, and Dingsheji! ”
Liu Che took a picture of this sycophant, and he made Liu Wu fluttering, and he didn't know where he was.
Because of the Wu Chu Rebellion the year before last, the relationship between Liu Wu and the southern princes and kings also fell to the freezing point.
It can even be said that Liu Wu is the person who is most afraid of the southern princes and kings except Liu Che.
In the battle of Suiyang the year before last, Liu Wu didn't want to come back for a second time!
That time, it really frightened Liu Wu, a young man!
Otherwise, he would not have disregarded his dignity and sent three envoys to Chang'an in one day to complain to Zhou Yafu of 'sitting back and watching the rebels besiege Suiyang'.
Of course, what is more important is that now Liu Wu has no staff by his side, and no one has given him advice, advice or advice.
The princes and kings of the old Liu family, once there are no advisers around, their naïve behavior can break through the sky!
Even the emperor is no better than there.
Sensibility is greater than rationality, which is a common problem for almost all descendants of the Liu family.
Therefore, the princes and kings of the Liu clan are often able to do those behaviors and choices that make future generations jaw-dropping.
A typical example is Liu Chang, the king of Huainan.
This cargo was so naïve that he relied on forty people and a few cars to pull the flag and rebel, but was suppressed by a county lieutenant and people......
Even Liu Bi, who is known as the old fox, is actually no better.
At the beginning, his son was stoned to death by the first emperor on a chessboard.
According to the villain setting and the behavior of traitors in later generations, even if you don't pretend to be a loyal minister, you will definitely act as if nothing happened.
But what about this one?
First of all, he sent his son's body back to Chang'an with the coffin, and publicly declared: Where you die, you will be buried!
Pure heart is an eye medicine for Chang'an!
Secondly, Liu Bi never went to Chang'an to pay tribute again.
Therefore, it immediately aroused the vigilance of Chang'an, and then, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen enshrined his beloved son, Liu Yi as the king of Liang, and sat in Suiyang as a countermeasure.
To put it mildly, if there was no Liang State's survival, the Wu Chu Rebellion the year before last, the Wu Chu army would at least be able to hit the city of Luoyang!
As for Liu Wu, his behavior after the rebellion of Wu Chu in his previous life also belonged to comics.
Therefore, Liu Che was not worried that Liu Wu would not take the bait at all.
Liu Che sorted out his thoughts slightly, observed Liu Wu's expression, and continued: "Don't hide it from Uncle Huang, I am worried that there will be another Wu Rebellion among the princes' clans, so at today's court meeting, I have strongly promoted the policy of 'salt and iron official camp', and the imperial court will lead the sale and pricing of salt and iron, hoping to cut off the breeding ground of rebellious ministers and thieves. ”
Actually, too!
In the matter of the salt and iron official camp, the merchants were just sick with scabies, and they couldn't do anything.
The crux of the matter lies with the princes and kings.
Liu Che needed a heavyweight prince who could take the lead in responding to speak out and express support for the official policy of salt and iron.
And Liu Wu is the best candidate.
After the Wuchu Rebellion the year before last, the power of the princes and kings of the Han family was dealt a heavy blow, and these princes and kings no longer had the ability to face the imperial court.
But if there is not enough deterrence and deterrence, it is very easy for them to secretly stumble.
After all, Liu Che's emperor father died early, and he couldn't just like in his previous life, narrowly flattening the prestige of the Wu Chu Rebellion, cutting off and weakening the authority of the princes and kings.
Today's princes and kings still have the power to command the army of the feudal country, and they still have the authority to appoint the officials of the feudal country! (Originally, it was 2,000 stones, but after the rebellion of Wu and Chu, the first emperor withdrew the power of the princes and kings to appoint officials of 2,000 stones). (To be continued......)
