New Story of Lv Bu

In the political system of this dynasty, aristocratic families held a great deal of weight. To investigate its clues, we should also start with the establishment of the country by Gaodi.

The 400-year history of this dynasty began with the Gaodi Slaying the White Snake Uprising. It has gone through numerous difficulties and dangers before it gradually emerged among the lords of the late Qin Dynasty. Gao Di relied on the power of the three outstanding masters of the early Han Dynasty and the power of his subordinates to be able to break into the Guanzhong. At that time, the overlord of Chu's army was at its peak, and Gao Di couldn't resist, so he had to accept the title of King of Han, and Tao Hui entered into Shu. Then, the Emperor raised his troops and fought against the Emperor of Chu for years, losing all battles, and finally won a complete victory in the battle of Gaixia. The Emperor of Chu killed himself in Wujiang, so the great man founded the country from then on.

However, even though the Overlord of Chu was killed and the world unified, it did not eliminate all the disasters. On the contrary, the tendency of separatism became more and more obvious. After the first emperor Fen the VI, Zhen Chang Ce and Yu Yu Nei, institutionally speaking, rely on the system of prefectures and counties and the powerful control of the local government by the central government. Now that Daqin has become a victorious nation, everything that the first emperor has done has become stigmatized and exhausted.

There were fierce disputes between Gaodi and his advisers and generals on how to effectively rule the world. The core of the dispute was whether to adopt the prefecture system or the vassal state system. The competition between the two factions was fierce, and even the same. The reason is very simple. When fighting the Qin Dynasty and the Chu Overlord, Gao Di did not actually have the upper hand. In order to destroy the Qin and Chu Overlords, he had to resort to various methods other than war. The enemy's enemy, even the generals within the enemy, as long as they bring troops to throw in, they will definitely be sealed.

From this perspective, Gao Di is actually the leader of the anti-Qin and anti-Chu group, and his direct line of generals and troops are only part of the anti-Qin and anti-Chu group. Now that both Da Qin and Chu Overlord are finished, you Liu San has also become the emperor. Shouldn't the promise you made to us be fulfilled? If it doesn't materialize, hum, you have a try! Look at the brothers coming together to knock you down!

Seeing this situation, Gao Di and his chief advisers were immediately dumbfounded. In the first place, in order to deal with the Overlord of Chu, they made rash promises and never thought that they would be able to hang around all day. Anyway, it's just the generosity of others, without blowing up or blowing up, just take the place of the Overlord of Chu as a gift. At this moment, the situation is right there. If the promises made in the past are not fulfilled, the big guy will copy the guy and do it! The Han Dynasty is really hard to toss, no matter what, these supporters must be satisfied.

Ever since, Gao Di gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and successively named seven kings of different surnames and a hundred and forty-five princes. Among these lieutenants, only six were relatives of Gao Di, and even his enemy, Yong Chi, was the first to seal Liehou in order to quell material disputes. The scale of the princes granted by Gao Di is unprecedented. These princes are not only honorary titles, but real princes. There are ten thousand households with the greatest contribution, and five to six hundred households with the least contribution. This is equivalent to the existence of more than one hundred countries in the world of the big man.

Such a large-scale award is almost equal to the benefits. The former Conglong generals are finally satisfied, cheering and cheering to become the supporters of the new dynasty, returning to their own food town to enjoy the blessing. However, a new problem is here again. What if these rude and innocent guys want to rebel? Gao Di is extremely clever, he also entrusted nine kings of the same surname at the same time, trying to look at the right hand with his left hand.

Not only that, but Gotti also sculpted a talisman and swore an oath with his heroes. This talisman was composed of two halves. The entrusted hero held one half, and the other half was stored in the royal archives for proof. The oath is: "Make the river like a belt, the mountain is strong, the country is Yongning, and the miao." Gaodi told them that even if one day, the vast Yellow River is only left with a narrow belt wide, and the majestic Mount Tai is only With the remaining whetstone as thin, your title will remain strong forever, and it can be passed on to your descendants and grandchildren.

The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and there were 36 prefectures in the whole country. After the division, only fifteen prefectures were left under the management of the central government, and among these fifteen prefectures, there were also several Liehou's food towns. According to this algorithm, Gao Di only takes one third of the world as the emperor. These princes, large and small, became the first aristocratic families in the dynasty. Later, seven kings of the opposite **** were extinguished. Among the 145 princes, more than 30 came from the land of abundance. There are more than 30 people in the surrounding area, and these more than 60 lieutenants are the direct descendants of Gao Di. These more than 60 lieutenants went through the four dynasties of Gaodi, Huidi, Luhou, and Wendi, and they have always been important ministers.

In this way, until the time when Gao Di collapsed, the family of the dynasty was formally formed. Because the core heroes were placed in Kansai, they were called the family of Guanxi. The family of Guanxi is a typical military family. Afterwards, after experiencing the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing began to clean up the kings of the same sex. It was not until Emperor Wu, who came out in five hundred years, that the mess left by Gaodi was dealt with. After Emperor Wu issued the "Tweeting Order", the power of the princes began to weaken sharply, and they could no longer compete with the central government. Because of this, Emperor Wu was able to order and prohibit things, such as the command of the arm, the northern conquest of the Xiongnu, the southern expedition to the southern Vietnam, and the real dominance of the country.

After "deposing a hundred schools of Confucianism", under the strong support of the imperial court, a large number of Confucian families emerged. Most of these Confucian families started from doctors of the Five Classics. Teachers vigorously supported them, and students and disciples cited each other. After several generations, a new family was gradually formed. These new Confucian families gradually replaced the old clan families and military meritorious families and became the mainstream of the aristocratic families.

Two hundred years later, when there was a new rebellion, Wang Mang stole the country and became the emperor. At that time, Emperor Guangwu started in Nanyang and summoned the old Nanyang Ministry to fight against each other. His elder brother Liu Yin was shocked and gorgeous, and was hated by the Green Forest generals and Emperor Gengshi. After being killed for an excuse, Emperor Guangwu had to go out to Hebei with Yanping, gaining the power of the Hebei clan, and then flattened the bronze horses, red eyebrows, and The princes of all roads have just covered the world.

Emperor Guangwu was born as a Confucian student, and his generals were mostly Confucian scholars in Nanyang and Hebei. After the capital was established in Luoyang, he promoted Confucianism in order to strengthen people's hearts and reform the past. During the two hundred years, Confucianism became a great prosper, and a group of new Confucian families were formed. Most of these Confucian families are located in the Guandong. They are based in Nanyang, Yingchuan, and even Yuzhou and Jizhou, the land of Emperor Guangwu's Longxing. Therefore, they are called the Guandong family. Compared with the Kansai aristocratic families, the Kanto aristocratic families are mostly civil servants, so there is a saying that "Kansai will be a general and Kanto will be a minister". There are four most famous families, namely: Hongnong Yang family, Runan Yuan family, Yingchuan Xun family and Yingchuan Chen family.

It is unnecessary to say that the Yuan family of Runan, the fourth generation and the three masters, are the famous masters of the dynasty, and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are the representative figures.

The Sili, Yuzhou, and Nanyang areas of this dynasty have always been called the foundation of this dynasty. Nanyang County is the land of Emperor Guangwu's Longxing. Therefore, Nanyang and Yingchuan County have a large number of aristocratic families. Because the former lieutenant Zhao Qian launched a family rebellion and opposed Da Sima's new taxation policy, many family families in Sili were uprooted, leaving Sili and Liangzhou families empty.

In this way, the Nanyang family and the Yingchuan family have a much heavier weight, and the Yingchuan Xun family and the Chen family are one of the representatives of the Yingchuan family. At that time, there was a saying of "Ruying Duoqishi", and Xun Yu and Xun You of Yingchuan Xun Clan were the leaders among them. There are more than one hundred members of the Xun clan as recorded in historical records. Moreover, he was mostly a high-ranking civilian official in the DPRK, and he was a family of bureaucratic scholar-officials.

In addition to being official, the Xun clan has another very important method, which is marriage. The marriage of Xun Hong and Cai Wenji, although it is said to be a talented girl, is not a political marriage. Because of this marriage, Yingchuan Xun's family has an important connection with Da Sima. After all, Wen Ji is Ling Hao's best friend and Ling Qi's teacher. With the addition of Wan Hu Hou Cai Yong, the Cai family has become a famous family. Cai Yong is one of the literati who has been the most careless to go to Da Sima, and now he is the most important person in the world. With such strong support, coupled with the wisdom and liberal arts of Xun's children, naturally there is no need to worry about entering an official career.

The aristocratic families of this dynasty all thrived because of officialdom, and declined because of officialdom. Whoever has a wider access to officialdom will grow in power. Today's Xun family is like hugging a golden rice bowl tightly, and can wake up with a smile in a dream. The two leaders of the Xun family, Xun Yu and Xun You, known as "Wang Zuo Zhicai", one is highly used as the master of Cao Mengde, the other is a good minister under the command of Sima, and the limelight is no different. The bets on both sides of Xun's family can be described as letting the wind and waves beat, and I stayed still.

The Chen family of Yingchuan originated from Chen Miao, whose name is Zhong Gong, and was once the head of Taiqiu, so it was called "Chen Taiqiu". The Chen family was originally the family of Hanwei. Chen Yu gradually accumulated a lofty prestige by relying on his extraordinary morality. At the time, Deguan became the master of famous nobles and the head of famous nobles. Chen Yu participated in the struggle against eunuchs at the end of the Han Dynasty. He was the most prestigious and influential celebrity at the time. He lived to be eighty-four years old. With his own power, he forced the Chen family from the home of common people to the first-class gentry. Ranks.

In the fourth year of Zhongping, Chen Yu died at home at the age of 84. General He Jin sent an envoy to offer sacrifices, more than 30,000 people from home and abroad, and hundreds of them. Published a stone stele, posthumously named Mr. Wenfan. Chen Yu has six sons in total, of which Chen Ji and Chen Chen are the most distinguished. At that time, people referred to their father and son as the "Three Monarchs." Since then, the Chen family of Yingchuan has become a surname of Gaomen.

At this time, compared with the Hongnong Yang family, the Runan Yuan family, and the Yingchuan Xun family, the Yingchuan Chen family was still an emerging Confucian family, and its background was not deep enough. Chen Qun Chen Changwen, who will bring the Chen family of Yingchuan into the real high-ranking giant in the future, is still just a small Chang'an county magistrate at this time. Can be ignored.

Among the four great families, the Yuan family of Runan is already Kou Qiu, the Yingchuan Xun family bet on both sides, and the Chen family of Yingchuan is still weak.

In this way, as the world's first family, Hongnong Yang's weight is extremely important, and its attitude is very important.
