"Since the sages have discussed it, they all say: You can levy taxes on vehicles and ships to calculate and merge mines, then ......" Liu Che stood up and ordered: "Taichang, go and summon the unauthorized people to the palace!" ”

Taichang Dou Pengzu immediately came out of the queue and was ordered to worship: "No! Sincerely! ”

In the Han Dynasty, Taichang's status was very revered.

Among all the Jiuqing yamen, Taichang is the most noble, and at the same time the Jiuqing who has the closest relationship with the royal family.

Even the Shaofu Ling, who is known as the steward of the Son of Heaven, and Zongzheng, the patriarch of the Liu clan, are not as good as the relationship between Taichang and the old Liu family.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the great writer Yang Xiong once praised him: Yiyi is too often, he is actually Zongbo, Mu Mu Lingyuan, and the temple is Yiyi.

Because, Taichang is the daily caretaker, repair and maintainer of the Han Emperor's Mausoleum, and at the same time, he is also the minister who worships the ancestors at four o'clock.

And the source of the emperor's authority and his legal system came from the ancestors who lay in the tombs.

In some ways, too often is the manifestation of the emperor's will in terms of divinity.

He is often the guide and praise officer who is in authority.

This expresses Liu Che, the son of heaven, with the greatest respect and goodwill for those who are in power.

When many scholars and doctors saw this scene, they were a little unhappy in their hearts.

Especially the doctors, the awkward feeling in their hearts is like a picky eater being forced by adults to eat those dishes he doesn't like.

It's just that the Son of Heaven has already given an order, Taichang has also been edicted, and the wood has been completed, so they can only cry out in vain.

Some people are unhappy, and naturally some people are happy.

Bo Dou's relatives, at this moment, I really just want to look up to the sky and let out a long roar: the bet is right!

Many of the princes were even more red-faced.

As early as last autumn, after the liehou tandem was pressed to the ground by the Son of Heaven and beaten fatly, the princes and ministers who knew that they were no longer just the Son of Heaven began to save the country.

Their way to save the country is very simple - send a capable domestic slave or a side branch to enter the grassroots markets in various counties in Guanzhong. Obtain a local unauthorized position.

If the people sent by the other side fail to replace the local authority.

That's okay too.

Only those who sent out by themselves were defeated?

For the political elite, this is a good thing, showing that the other side is capable of defeating his subordinates with their own support.

How can such a talent be let go?

Co-opt, of course!

Immediately, there was a certain nobleman's confidant, holding his master's name. With the jewels and jade utensils, he boarded these unauthorized houses that had fought hard and kept his position, first politely reported his name, and then handed over an olive branch.

This olive branch is usually like this: The prince of my family has a daughter who is twenty-eight years old, waiting for the word boudoir, hearing the monarch and heroic, willing to be a wife, I don't know what to do?

Who can refuse such kindness?

No!

If the other party already has a wife. And the relationship is very good, and he is unwilling to divorce his wife and marry another.

Then they will not persecute, but come to the door again another day with a generous gift: Wen Jun has a son (daughter), very smart, and my lord also has a son (daughter) who is a good match, and is willing to marry you.

Now, you can't say no more, can you?

Thereupon. After a while, chickens and dogs jumped, and the current Guanzhong is in power. Basically, they are all members of the group of relatives of the liehous.

Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet.

As the elite princes and relatives at the top of the Han ruling group, they were among the first classes to react and respond to the changes in the government and the future.

Now, the seeds that were planted in preparation for a rainy day are now harvesting.

The princes were excited to discover. He has become the biggest winner of this political change.

It made them feel very comfortable all over their bodies.

Especially the Bo Dou family, this time they really made a lot of money!

Even Dou Pengzu couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Only a few collateral women in the clan, Nanpi and Zhangwu, controlled one-tenth of the unauthorized power in Guanzhong.

Except for the land of Longxing today. No one in the nine cities in Guanzhong dared to make an idea, and among the other Guanzhong markets, half of the most prosperous and lively markets were now in the hands of the Dou family.

Not to mention, just because he had the unauthorized power of these markets, Dou found that there seemed to be something remarkable that appeared in this world.

The Dou family is not a family of relatives who lack background.

Back then, Zhang Wuhou almost became the prime minister.

There are thousands of diners and staff under the door.

Especially in Wei Qihou Dou Ying's Mansion, there are hundreds of diners.

In the past, these people were pure burdens, and they spent money to buy fame.

But now, the value of these diners and doormen has finally shown their value in the great political changes since last year.

First of all, the Son of Heaven traveled to the salt and iron official camp, and among the customers and diners of the Dou family, many people passed the examination and entered the official career, and then entered the salt and iron official yamen.

After these people entered the office, although the starting point was low and the position was low, they were also officials!

Dou's network began to swell imperceptibly.

Then, there is the Grace Order.

Many of the newly acquired lands did not have enough men to manage them.

But the Dou family didn't have this problem, they didn't even need to go to the feudal country to transfer retainers and domestic slaves, so they relied on diners and doormen to organize the development and construction of the new fiefdom.

Wei Qihou Dou Ying sent more than 200 diners to his Jia'en fiefdom at one time, and at this time, it caused a sensation in the entire Guanzhong at that time, and even the Son of Heaven had inquired about it.

Next, it is this time to compete for and co-opt Guanzhong's arbitrary power.

In this process, in order to reflect their own value and be worthy of the generous treatment and status given by the host, the diners of the Dou family have made suggestions and investigated and collected evidence.

Then, one report after another, one by one investigation records, were sent to the cases of the lords of the Dou family, and some were even directly sent to Zhang Wuhou, who was concentrating on cultivation.

Many of these reports, in exciting words, state a fact to the sovereign: those who abuse power are the foundation of thousands of years of wealth and wealth, and the foundation of a hundred generations. The prince and the prince observed it.

And after careful study, Dou Pengzu found that this is indeed the truth!

An unauthorized authority has information about the trade and prices and the circulation of goods in a market.

Often, a fixed market prescribed by the government is the commercial and trade center of a county.

Whether it's merchants who want to sell their goods. Or if the people want to buy or sell their goods, they have to come to the market to trade.

As an intermediary between merchants, ordinary people, and the government, arbitrary power may seem inconspicuous, but in fact it is an extremely important key.

If we say that in the Han Dynasty, the Tingli postal system spread all over the local counties and villages was the node that connected this huge empire, and the three elders of the 2,823 rods in the country were the nails that glued the whole world together. Then the unauthorized power of thousands of major trading markets in the counties and countries of the world is the valve of the wealth of the world.

As Dou Pengzu's uncle Zhang Wuhou Dou Guangguo said: Hong Fan Bazheng, one is food, the other is goods, and the desire of today also lies in this, food protection, so that the people do not have hunger, salt and iron official camps. So that the people do not have to worry, and then exercise power, and set up the lord and the captain, then the goods are sufficient, so that the world is in his hands, can turn over the clouds, and make the rivers upside down...... It can be said that it is the biggest change in China since Qin Shi Huang!

Dou Pengzu took a deep breath.

Yes, if it is really made into this whole system by His Majesty.

From then on, the Han room was central. It will be able to pass through grain, salt and iron and trade logistics, quietly. manipulate the general trend of the world.

Drought in the South, good!

At the emperor's order, the grain in all the markets of the country was bought by the government at the first time, and then entered the disaster area by gallop, water, and land.

And then. With another order, the lord and the court lieutenant informed all the big merchants one by one: Listen, we have to buy these things!

Who wouldn't dare not sell it?

What's more, once the imperial court completely controlled the market, it was even necessary to know the general situation of the market trade.

So. The state can easily know the basic situation of society.

Because the rise and fall of prices is inevitably closely related to the social economy and people's livelihood of the whole world or a corner of the local area.

In this way, even in Chang'an, the Son of Heaven can know what has happened recently in the southern country and Xinhua, where the cold wind is howling, thousands of miles away, what the social order is, and whether the state needs to intervene.

Perhaps, this is a bit of a fantasy.

But look at the two rail carriage lines built in Guanzhong today, and then look at the galloping road built by Qin Shi Huang all over the world and the postal system established by the Han Dynasty in units of ten miles and one pavilion.

It can be seen that this is not a fantasy, but a very likely future - a hundred years ago, when the nations were divided, who would have thought that today, the Son of Heaven sitting in Chang'an City, could know the actions of the South Vietnamese on the border of the distant south a month ago?

These things, Dou Pengzu couldn't have imagined, but his uncle had a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through the future.

After his uncle's description, Dou Pengzu was scared into a cold sweat.

After the shock, there is an irrepressible impulse.

Unauthorized power - I also want to control and master.

Of course, as a courtier, Dou Pengzu does not need to be like the Son of Heaven, so that the unauthorized authorities can completely obey orders and obey commands.

He just needs to take a free ride and get a piece of the action.

And the status of the Dou family has this qualification to enter and drink soup.

Of course, if the Son of Heaven does not restrain and warn, then it is understandable to sneak around and make some small moves and steal a little bit of the authority of the Son of Heaven, and use it for himself.

If you don't take it, you will be damned!

With such an idea and abacus, Dou Pengzu led dozens of people who were summoned to Weiyang Palace, and the unauthorized authorities who had been blowing the cold wind outside the hall for most of the night entered from the side door of the Xuanshu Palace.

These unauthorized powers had been notified as early as a month ago, and they had received more than a month of etiquette training in the Taichang Yamen.

However, when they walked into the Xuanshu Palace, they looked at the golden and splendid Han Temple, the palace of the highest power of the state, at the smooth floor that could reflect the human figures, and at the big people who were thunderous on weekdays and couldn't even call their names on either side of the seats.

The timid ones are already trembling, and their calves and stomachs are cramping.

Even the most confident and self-satisfied people are keeping their heads low at the moment.

They know who they are.

To put it nicely, they are quasi-officials, and to put it mildly, they are actually just people in the market, scoundrels!

Even, if someone calls them a pariah, they have to continue.

Decades of propaganda brainwashing by the mainstream public opinion and the government and the opposition have not only convinced the people and scholars of the world that businessmen = untouchables = the end of the industry. Even the merchant himself believed it.

Otherwise, why are there so many people in the world who go to the official position every year?

Why did the wrong loss of Su donate to the knighthood in the first place trigger a frenzy in the world?

Why is it that almost all businessmen will not choose to continue to expand their production scale as soon as they make a fortune, but return to their hometowns. Crazy land buying, mergers?

Isn't the purpose of doing this for themselves and their children and grandchildren, no longer untouchables, no longer people of the city who are discriminated against and spit on?

In particular, those who are in power are convinced of these things, and even regard them as the norm.

Because, they are with the government. He had the most dealings with the common people and the aristocracy of all merchants, and he suffered the most visible and invisible discrimination.

Under the unanimous discrimination of the whole public opinion and the whole society, they naturally have an inferiority complex.

On the contrary, the house slaves and children of those noble relatives who were stuffed into the ranks of unauthorized power were a little more normal, but they were not normal either.

These people followed Taichang Dou Pengzu and trembled. I walked to the hall of the Xuanshu Hall step by step, and then. With a collective plop, they fell prostrate on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads, and could only shout: "Vulgar savage, a certain county is in power, so-and-so." Fortunately, I have the grace of heaven to see the holy face, and my emperor has a long life! ”

Taichang Dou Pengzu bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the counties of Guanzhong are in power, and they are called Pingjia." Sixty-nine people have been brought, and the minister Peng Zu has handed over the decree to His Majesty! ”

"Too often, please come back!" Liu Che stood up and nodded.

Then, he looked at the overly powerful people who were kneeling in the middle of the hall, a little nervous, and said, "The princess is here, it's good!" Liu Che's voice was very soft, blowing like a spring breeze on the hearts of the unauthorized powers, blending their nervousness and fear, especially the few of these unauthorized powers had seen Liu Che once in Liu Che's Prince Sixian Garden more than three years ago, and how much knew that he was not a man-eating tiger today.

In this way, they calmed down a little, but they still lay on the ground, and said: "Heaven is gracious, I am grateful......

"Please take a seat!" Liu Che smiled and ordered: "Although the public is clothed, he has the power of a city to level Jia...... God Guiping, the public and other years of the city Jia Shi, reconcile the government and the people, the price of flat things, all lose one side, the ancients so-called scholars, but so, can be in the temple seat! ”

Liu Che's words, regardless of the size of the authority, immediately all cried and worshipped: "The grace of the saint is like the sea, and he actually bathes me and other lowly people, and I wish to die to repay the king's kindness!" ”

Maybe people in later generations will not have such thoughts.

But at this time, the death of a person who is a confidant is to act in the world and break the immutable truth and universal values.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period, for the sake of a promise or a meal, I don't know how many people have given up their lives to repay.

As the emperor, Liu Che's status is above everything.

Not to mention that he now highly evaluates and recognizes these unauthorized powers, even if it is just a sentence of 'I know about the efforts of the public', it is enough to move many people to tears and even repay them with death.

Moreover, the lower the status, the stronger the concept and determination to repay the king's kindness by death, but it is rare for high-level nobles and ministers to do so.

This is probably the so-called distance produces beauty, and every righteous slaughter dog, and the negative heart is mostly a reader.

But the doctors didn't see it that way.

Especially the doctors are about to go berserk!

Your Majesty actually called a group of businessmen and untouchables scholars?

Is there any royal law? Is there any justice, justice and three views?

This is unbearable!

It's just that......

The Son of Heaven said 'God Guiping' made them uncomfortable!

The word 'ping' has a special status in the Han family.

The supreme court and judicial interpretation body of the Han dynasty is called Tingwei, why is it called Tingwei instead of the so-called Dali?

The court, Ping, Guiping, the governor of the prison, the captain is also the captain, and in the Han Dynasty, all those who held the position of thief and inspector were called captains. There is another explanation, that is, punishment, to punish the traitor with his crime.

In the Han Dynasty, especially in the legal and ideological circles, the voices demanding fairness and calling for justice are very strong.

From the emperor to the officials at the grassroots level, they were all deeply influenced by this trend of thought.

For example, when it comes to the law, the rulers of the early Han Dynasty generally recognized and accepted the idea of 'the public of the world', what is the public of the world? That is, when the law is enacted and voted unanimously by the courtiers, it immediately has legal effect, and even the emperor cannot change it before it is abolished, which is the so-called 'public non-selfishness'.

Therefore, Zhang Shizhi, the imperial lieutenant, was able to repeatedly use the law to stop the emperor's idea of judging cases based on his own preferences.

Later, Du Zhou, the court commander of the Wudi Dynasty, vividly described the structure of the Han law, saying: Three feet out of the country? The former lord is the law, and the latter is the order, at that time it was, what is the ancient law?

In this story, Du Zhou told the world that the laws of the first emperor abolished by the old Liu family were much more than the new laws.

Now, Liu Che is playing the sign of 'God Guiping', exercising his privilege of the Son of Heaven, and giving a group of people who have contributed to the country the title of honorary scholars, who can chirp crookedly?

Could it be that someone thinks that the emperor is at fault?

Na Tingwei and the Imperial Doctor will be more than happy to discuss with him the question of who determines the truth, justice, and laws of physics in this world, this universe.

Not to mention, the group of doctoral officers has recently expanded several times.

There are many people, various trends of thought come and go, and there is no leading brother who can control the scene.

So, they can only endure, wait, wait for the next opportunity, and then attack.

In any case, as the absolute elite of the self-proclaimed scholar class, the intellectuals who think that they already have the truth of heaven and earth are absolutely unwilling and unwilling to sit in the same camp with the merchants, mud-legged people, and untouchables and share the same title.

Even if the Son of Heaven admits it, they will never recognize each other's status.

However, the unauthorized powers, after wiping their tears one by one, were full of reverence for the Son of Heaven and a beautiful yearning for the future, and under the leadership of the instructors in the hall, they sat in a remote corner of the Xuanshu Palace, and moreover, two or three people shared a desk.

However, even this is enough to make them excited, and they can't even help themselves.

Can you have a seat of your own in the Xuanmur Hall?

This is something that even if I dreamed about in the past, I didn't dare to think about it!

Today, it's a real thing.

Some even pinched their thighs to make sure they weren't dreaming. (To be continued.) )
