Han Shizu

Chapter 1894 The Voice Below

For the clan, nobles, and bureaucrats in the center of the Han Dynasty, the 26th year of the Shangyuan Xiumu was really not peaceful. The joy and exhaustion of the Shangyuan imperial banquet had not faded away, and they were attracted by the closure of the country.

The imperial edict of the Seven Kingdoms has not yet been officially issued, but it is just some details of the news that have been circulated. After a short period of fermentation, it caused a lot of repercussions in the Xijing government and the public.

He did not discuss with the foreign ministers, but only decided through the secret discussion between the father and son on the night of Shangyuan.

However, the matter of conferring a country is not just an internal matter of the royal family, it is a major event of conferring titles, which is related to the general situation of the country and the stability of the country.Even if, as Emperor Liu said, it is to distribute the family property to his sons and grandsons, it must be purchased using state resources. Under such circumstances, the rulers of the empire should have the right to speak.

However, Emperor Liu's willful attitude and Gan Gang's arbitrary approach in the matter of enfeoffment are obviously unpopular.After all, even if the country is sealed off, most of the follow-up work will have to be done by domestic and foreign military and political officials. It is difficult to accomplish things only by those sons and grandsons.

Of course, the ministers were not completely opposed to Emperor Liu's idea of ​​enfeoffment. They only cared about two points, where and how to entrust.The first point is not a big problem. Except for Anton, which has some room for discussion, the other regions listed in the atlas are not very controversial.

The key lies in the second point. Taking Liu Shu, the Duke of Chu, as an example, the enfeoffment system in Linyi (Xin Chu) took more than half a year to decide. Straighten out.According to Emperor Liu's request, the imperial court will invest enough human, money and material resources in the future to ensure the official establishment of the new Chu State. Generous to benefit personal feelings.

Not to mention anything else, the personnel arrangement alone caused the official department led by Lu Duan to have a headache for a long time, and then they recruited a group of suitable officials to fill them.The matter of the new Chu Kingdom was not over yet, Emperor Liu released another satellite of David, conferring seven kingdoms, and all of them were wild islands far away overseas.

Compared with the Linyi area, the situation of the newly sealed states is obviously more complicated, and it is more difficult to meet Emperor Liu's requirements.Linyi, in any case, is also the "familiar place" where the imperial court has actually occupied, suppressed, and influenced control for more than 20 years. There is a simple but sufficiently basic military and political management system. Even if it is difficult to implement, at least there is such a foundation that can Seek the perfect complement.

But what else?Some merchants and peasants immigrated, scattered strongholds, and sporadic Zhendian markets. Except for Liangping Island (Singapore), there is no city that has begun to take shape.

It would be unrealistic to regard these as the conditions for feuding a country, and according to Emperor Liu's temperament, since he established a feudal state, it was impossible to just stay in name and build a few empty feudal states with good-sounding names.This means that in order to establish a feudal country that forms actual rule, the court needs to invest a large amount of resources in the follow-up. Even a set of the most basic and crude governance management system is not as easy as it sounds. Just thinking of the distance of thousands of miles made some ministers with conservative opinions feel anxious.

Among other things, the established government organizations on the Nanyang Islands are the first obstacle to be solved.The authority of the big Han in Nanyang is growing, but first grabbing food from other people's bowls, first smashing other people's pots, seizing other people's houses and land for their own use, no matter how ignorant and backward the natives are, they will not easily compromised.

It is hoped that those barbarians from outside the region are eager to be kingly, and they will bow in the face of the imperial edict. There are not many ministers in power in the Han Dynasty.Once things go wrong, mobilizing troops is inevitable.Thousands of miles away, there is already an Anxi, and it has been going on for several years. The battle is getting bigger and bigger, and the enemy is fighting more and more.

The consumption on land has already caused the imperial court to vomit blood, and if there is a "two-pronged approach" at sea, no matter how thick the blood of the big man is, it will not flow enough...

And once the country is sealed off, can the court interfere?Obviously it was impossible. After all, Emperor Liu didn't really want to send his descendants into exile, and he was counting on them to achieve a great career.

The court of the Han Dynasty has never lacked people who are worried and insightful. In view of the many problems and hidden dangers in Emperor Liu's enfeoffment policy, it is difficult for some loyal ministers and sages to sit still. All kinds of suggestions on the imperial case also poured in. After a good Shangyuan Xiumu, it was busier than usual, with a lot of voices, and even a smoky atmosphere.

Of course, in the process of dealing with Emperor Liu for a long time, the officials who have been spurred and trained many times have also gained experience, and naturally they have learned to behave this time.Direct dissuasion and opposition to His Majesty's decision-making, except for Wang Yucheng and a few top brats, no one dares to do so anymore, especially in recent years.

Direct opposition is not enough, but beating around the bush and making insinuations are full of tricks. After all, Emperor Liu did not shut down his words.And in this wave of advice and advice, many famous articles with brilliant literary talents have been born, some of which are not the high-spirited talks of Qingliu, but really have certain insights.

When the turbulent situation reappeared in the court, even Emperor Liu had to pay more attention.

The cold spring has not yet faded, and in the Chuigong Palace, Emperor Liu is still dressed in thick clothes, standing in front of the map in a hunched posture, with his brows furrowed and his complexion deep.

Song Zhun, a cabinet scholar, waited on the side, bowed his head and tied his hands, cautiously not daring to disturb Emperor Liu.Song Zhun is already 50 years old, but he is still as personable as ten years ago, with outstanding temperament, and his appearance makes people feel good.

Song Zhun was born as a number one scholar. Due to his rich experience in grass-roots officials, he was entrusted with a real job after high school. He also became one of the four accompanying officials around Liu Yang. Before being transferred to Beijing, he had been appointed as the deputy envoy of Jingxi Road.

He was selected and transferred to Beijing last winter, and was remembered by Emperor Liu. He was directly called to serve as a cabinet scholar and secretary to Emperor Liu.Many people are envious of Song Zhun's fortune. The cabinet bachelor is obviously just a transitional stage, and the future is obviously bright. A department chief or a chief official in his early 50s is enough to attract attention in the current political arena of the Han Dynasty!

Not far away, there are piles of memorials piled up on the majestic copper imperial case. Some Emperor Liu has read them, but most of them have not read them, and they are not interested in reading them again. There are even some superficially submissive people who secretly criticize and scold Huai Huai, and use the past to satirize the present. Emperor Liu really smelled that smell...
