[comprehensive] mother instrument world
Chapter 91: Chen Ajiao
Soon, Shu Yun heard the news that Liu Che had lost his temper in Changle Palace, and returned to Weiyang Palace angrily.Shu Yun listened to the words of the palace servants below, and nodded her head without exception. In fact, she could understand the Queen Mother's psychology very well.It's like when Concubine De was the Empress Dowager, she really wanted the eldest son to take care of the younger son, and wished that the younger son would become an iron hat king immediately.
As parents, most of them have a heart to equalize the rich and the poor. You are the emperor, and the world is yours. Then, isn’t it a matter of course that you give some to your brother, uncle, and aunt?
Especially, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, Tian Fu has made great contributions to Liu Che, so you are already the emperor, so what if you reward your uncle who is a hero?Tian Fu was really caring to the Queen Mother. With just one look from the Queen Mother, he could help the Queen Dowager to get things done, and he almost gave the Queen Mother a few sympathetic faces.Although there is no face, but in the Changle Palace of the Queen Mother, there are still a few eunuchs with fine features, which makes Liu Che feel that his father's head is a little green.
In short, with the Queen Mother, Tian Fu is fine no matter what, but Liu Che becomes more disobedient as he grows older, so he doesn't think about it, without her, a mother who has prepared early, how could he be where he is today.Think about it, when the Queen Mother was still the Crown Prince Liangdi, she first said that she dreamed of Emperor Gao, and then she dreamed of a great sun in her arms. In short, she had made enough preparations, which meant that this child Extraordinary history.
At that time, the Queen Mother was walking in the harem to spread rumors, and then, Tian Fu and his brothers were helping to build momentum outside, such as Liu Che's legendary background, and the rumors of the golden house hidden beauty, they were all spread!In short, just like Dou Taizhu felt that without her mother and daughter, Liu Che could not sit on the throne, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, without her and Wang Jiatian's family, Liu Che could not sit on the throne either!
So, now that Liu Che is the emperor, isn't it time for them to sit in a row and share the fruits?
This is the way the Queen Mother thinks. She will not consider the future of the big man, nor will she consider the prestige and authority of her son.After Liu Che knew what the Queen Mother was thinking, he was about to collapse.
Liu Che is still in the second stage of middle school now, thinking that everything in the world revolves around him, but the cold reality wakes him up, telling him that the idea is too beautiful, those people he thought revolved around him, everyone They all have their own thoughts, and you are just a springboard for them to achieve their goals.
For a while, the relationship between Liu Che and the Queen Mother, Tian Fu and others almost dropped to a freezing point. It is a pity that he trusted his own mother too much at the beginning, and had no restrictions on many powers of the Queen Mother. Therefore, his few Uncle still has the palace registration in his hand, so he can enter the palace at will. Most importantly, he hardly has much influence here in Changle Palace.
Although the empress dowager, empress, and many concubines in the Han Palace lived in the entire Changle Palace complex, the situation in the Changle Palace was much more complicated than that of the Weiyang Palace, which was almost ruled by the emperor alone.Leaving aside the empress dowager, those favorite concubines in the palace are not cheap lamps.
For a long time, in the palace, those palace people have always followed the wind and pushed the rudder. Chasing power, who can protect them, who can give them a better future, so naturally most of them are speculators, as for loyalty, they will be loyal to the most powerful person.
For example, in the Changle Palace, even if the Empress Dowager transferred a lot of people to Shu Yun, these people didn't mind giving the Empress Dowager some time, because the Empress Dowager might have nothing to do with Shu Yun as a queen, but whatever If you find a reason, you can deal with these palace people.
As for Shu Yun, after she had two princes, even though Liu Che's attitude was rather ambiguous, those palace people in the palace treated Shu Yun very respectfully. , for a queen with a son and a reputation, it is almost impossible to do anything to her.So in the eyes of these palace people, as long as Shu Yun can keep his life, then the overall situation has actually been settled.As long as the eldest son of the emperor does not die young, the position of the crown prince is even if it is not ten to nine, it is seventy-eight out of ten. Even if there is no eldest son, there is still a second son, and these are all princes born by the emperor. Therefore, Shu Yun will also be the queen mother in the future. Then, they Why do you want to fight against the queen Shu Yun?
And those favored concubines of Liu Che have also recruited some people. After all, not everyone can climb up to the empress dowager. Then, to attach to a favored concubine, or a concubine with more potential, is the only way these palace people can retreat. The second choice.
However, Liu Che seemed to be shocked by his biological mother and uncle, and he began to look for other stimuli.
Shu Yun has already heard that Liu Che has a close relationship with Liu Ling, the lord of Huainan. Liu Ling has been in Chang'an for several years. As for Huainan King Liu An, he is almost the heart of Huainan King. The Empress Dowager liked it, so she created a Huainanzi, and there were many stories about gods and ghosts in it. To be honest, it is more interesting to regard it as a myth or legend.But after reading the whole article, you will find that "Huainanzi" is not the theory of Huang Lao, but just a miscellaneous theory wrapped in Huang Lao's skin, which is more similar to that of "Lu Shi Chunqiu".
Of course, the cut version was shown to the Empress Dowager, and to be honest, the Empress Dowager was very interested in it.Older people will always believe in these ghost stories.Another reason is that since the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion and the deposed prince Liu Rong was forced to death, the empress dowager has become more tolerant towards the clan. The queen mother still has a good impression of these princes and kings, and thinks they are also the pillars of the country.In addition, the Empress Dowager experienced the death of Liu Chang, the Li Wang of Huainan, and knew that Emperor Wen had regrets about it, and later told the Empress Dowager that if he had known this, he would have locked Liu Chang in the Imperial Prison Closed for a lifetime, it will not be so persecuted.This is also the reason why Liu An would try to please the Empress Dowager, it is best to speak on her side.
After the death of the Empress Dowager, Liu An did not reduce the frequency of his activities in Chang'an, and even increased a lot. Originally, Liu Ling came to Chang'an in the first year of Jianyuan. The banner at the beginning was to ask the Empress Dowager to come to Chang'an. Choose a good marriage for her. After all, as the head of the old Liu family, it is normal to marry a lieutenant. However, there are not many candidates for a lieutenant in Huainan Kingdom. Naturally, there are more heroes in Chang'an.
Banners are banners, the Empress Dowager is old, and her memory for these matters is not very good. Liu Ling has to deal with a lot of officials and nobles, who knows what is going on with her.In particular, Liu Ling was only in her teens at that time, and her fame spread far and wide. It was inevitable that people would think that she was frivolous and shameless. Naturally, no one would continue to mention it to Liu Ling.
In the beginning, Liu Ling was actually just hanging around among these officials and nobles, and didn't really let them take advantage of them. Later, the queen had a son and was still in good health. Immediately, Liu An became anxious.
As for Liu Ling, no matter whether she was guided by her father or she was also intoxicated by this kind of feeling, when she hooked her fingers, there were many people rushing forward, wanting to have a kiss with her.In short, she is now the most famous socialite in Chang'an's social arena!
Then, she hooked up with Liu Che.Although Liu Che is not a hungry ghost, he is by no means a person who can keep himself clean. On the contrary, he has strong tastes and mixed tastes.This is also related to the atmosphere at this time. These days, there are not many legal or even moral restrictions on the relationship between men and women. That's it.
Liu Ling should be regarded as Liu Che's cousin in name, but, as the emperor, why did he care about these things? Therefore, under Liu Ling's hookup, Liu Che naturally rolled with her. From Liu Che's point of view, The beauties who come to your door don't take advantage of the advantages, so there is no psychological burden, and there is an extra pleasure.
When Shu Yun heard about this in the palace, he felt it was ridiculous. For a person like Liu Che, morality has always restricted others. Many of those princes and kings were expelled from the country because of ethical issues. In the end, when it came to Liu Che himself, he had a double standard.
Regarding the emperor's secret affairs, ordinary people dare not talk nonsense, lest the Tingwei come to the door. Of course, it is possible to communicate in private. After Liu Ling and Liu Che have such a relationship, in the social circle It immediately became more and more popular. It is impossible for everyone to marry a woman like her, but it is still a very face-saving thing to have such a lover. Some people who have had relationships with Liu Ling get together, and they each have a tacit understanding It feels like they keep the same secret with each other, and each of them seems like brothers and friends.
Liu Ling's actions naturally brought many benefits to Liu An, that is, there are many people in the court who say Liu An's benefits, even if Liu An made some outrageous actions, few people would be squeamish , lest those cheap son-in-laws have trouble with themselves.
One of the things Liu Ling did wrong was overestimating his own charm, or overestimating Liu Che's feelings for him. Liu Che was nothing more than looking for excitement for her, and he didn't have any sincerity at all. What is there to rest assured about Huainan Wang, the so-called elder of the clan.Therefore, in Huainan country, what should be monitored should continue to be monitored, and on Liu Ling's side, if you think of it, then you can see it, if you can't think of it, then forget it.
As for Shu Yun, he didn't mean to summon Liu Ling, but the Queen Mother was a little impatient, so she summoned Liu Ling once and warned her.But what is this kind of warning to Liu Ling?As the lord of Huainan, even if the Queen Mother has any thoughts about Liu Ling, she can't really do anything to her. Is it possible that the Queen Mother still has the courage of the late emperor back then. After losing a game of chess, she picked up the chessboard and directly It won't work to smash someone's head!The Queen Mother still doesn't want to bear the charge of rebelling against King Huainan.
Since the Queen Mother is only stern, then Liu Ling is naturally fearless. She even turned around and hooked up with Tian Fu. Although Tian Fu is ugly, he is not young, and looks a bit wretched, but he is very popular now. , The power is overwhelming, and he does not know how many things can be saved by having him make it convenient for his father.
After the Queen Mother heard about it, she was so angry that she was half dead. As for Liu Che, after knowing that Liu Ling had an affair with Tian Fu, he immediately felt a little disgusted. Now he can't see Tian Fu at all. However, his mother's queen stopped and protected him, and Tian Fu now seemed to have a full-fledged posture in the court, which made it difficult for Liu Che to do anything to Tian Fu for a while, so he had to endure it first!But it's okay to endure Tian Fu, and it's possible to continue to endure Liu Ling. Therefore, Liu Che will no longer go to the appointment when Liu Ling asks to see him again.It made Liu Ling regret it a little, but soon, she stopped thinking about it. With her identity, it was impossible for her to maintain an open relationship with Liu Che. As for Liu Che, she never really agreed to it. What's the matter with her, so in the end, Liu Ling had to doubt his charm as a woman, and then let it go!
For Liu Che, the matter of Liu Ling was nothing more than an embellishment. Since he became the throne, he wanted to do something big to show his existence. This was the case with the Taichu calendar before, but everyone respected the Taichu calendar. Yes, but, because of this, I didn't think that Liu Che, the emperor, was so powerful.Especially now in the court, people recommended by Tian Fu occupy most of the positions. These people are not in line with Liu Che's wishes at all, and their loyalty to Liu Che is limited. As for the old people who were promoted to the late emperor, let alone those What people are most used to is relying on the old and selling the old, and thinks that Liu Che should follow their pace.
Liu Che now has a deep understanding that to be an emperor, you have to have solid achievements, otherwise, in the eyes of others, you will be just a child who can be fooled casually.
After Liu Che had such an idea, some people would naturally be opportunistic.
Liu Che's heart disease lies in the Xiongnu, and the war faction in the court does not have the upper hand. However, after so many years of accumulation in the Han Dynasty, many people in the military are also eager to try.Don't look at Tian Fu's appointment as prime minister, in fact, this person does not conform to the Han Dynasty's worship rules. In the Han Dynasty, if you want to be a prime minister, you must have military merits. The good sister is lucky to come in.
Therefore, there are still many people in the court who are not convinced by this. Others also feel that they have made contributions to the emperor, but now they can only waste time in their original positions. It's because they have forgotten themselves, so they feel that they should remind the emperor. Of course, it is a bit taboo to ask for rewards, so let's do what we like!
The main representative here is Da Xing Ling Wang Hui, who urged the first emperor to make Liu Rong's mother Li Ji his queen, and was dismissed from office.In fact, everyone knew at that time that the first emperor was angry with Li Ji. The first emperor had just suffered a serious illness and asked Li Ji if he would take care of his other concubines and children. In the end, Li Ji just said "old dog", Immediately, the first emperor did not dare to get sick, nor did he dare to die!At this juncture, asking him to make Li Ji his queen was simply adding fuel to the fire.Because of the same surname of Wang, this man took refuge in Wang Xin at the beginning, and that's how the incident happened. After the late emperor passed away, this official returned to his original post, but he failed to get what he thought was a reward for meritorious deeds. Now, Liu Che ascended the throne It has been seven or eight years, and Wang Hui is not too young. If he waits any longer, he will probably become an official in the position of Daxing. He feels that he can't wait any longer.
Liu Che's heart disease lies in the Huns, so Wang Hui naturally wants to do what he likes, give Liu Che a chance, and give himself a chance.
Just in time, the Huns sent envoys to express their desire to continue the marriage agreement of the year, and Liu Che was full of anger. As for the property, it is not too much, it is just a form, but this is still a shame to the Han Dynasty.
Over the years, the Han Dynasty has certainly been thriving. Although the Huns have experienced several internal power changes, they have become stronger and stronger in recent years. There is no way. The Han Dynasty is a hard bone and cannot be gnawed. For the Huns, it is completely vulnerable. The Huns have made several western expeditions. Countries such as Wusun, Qiuci, and Kangju are almost impossible to pose any threat to the Huns. Therefore, every time the Western Expeditions , are all rewarding.So that later, whenever the Huns encountered snowstorms and droughts, they would go to the Western Regions to recover their losses.
That is to say, when King Youxian was there, he had been fighting against the Han Dynasty, but later the military officials launched a coup and directly killed his brother, leaving only his nephew Yi Zhixie, and then cut off Yi Zhixie The many influences of this nephew, it can be said that, in a sense, the military minister Shan Yu is almost pro-Han faction now!After all, the Huns are not fearless, and they can easily get benefits. Why go to the bottom of the Great Wall and leave a pile of bones, and they can't get any benefits in the end?
Therefore, the Huns now like to take advantage of some verbal advantages, such as making the size of the credential an inch wider than that of the Han Dynasty, and making the title of Shanyu particularly tall. As for other things, they are really unfair. The Han Dynasty was too persecuted here.
But in this era, this is already a great humiliation to the Han Dynasty.
For China's concept, names and utensils are the only ones, and people cannot be fake!The Chinese call themselves nobles of the upper kingdom, but they look down on Yidi in various ways. They say that they lead beasts to eat people and drink blood like hair, which means that Yidi is uncivilized.As for the Xiongnu, they had their own writing, and even with the help of the traitor, Bank of China, they established a rough system.That is to say, starting from the Huns, those nomadic peoples who are interested in the Central Plains, once they become kings and establish a system, they will be a great threat to the Central Plains!The Central Plains court has always been very sensitive to this.
In particular, if it wasn’t for the war at the end of Qin Dynasty, in fact, in the eyes of the Central Plains regime, the Huns would be nothing more than little brothers. Whether it was Yanzhao or Qin’s unification of the Central Plains, they would hang and beat the Huns. Even, in fact, on the grasslands back then, The real overlord cannot be said to be the Xiongnu, first it was Yiqu, and later, Donghu. It was only after Modun Shanyu joined forces with the Wusun people and defeated Donghu that the Xiongnu became the overlord of the grassland.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was full of wars, and there were ten rooms and nine empty spaces. Even if Liu Bang and the others were besieged and climbed the mountain, the Central Plains had King Qin’s army rushing over, but they did not have enough financial resources and manpower to fight another national war with the Huns. , The imperial court continued to cultivate their health and rest, and then made a marriage agreement with Maodun Shanyu.
Over the years, there have been almost no small conflicts between the two countries. As for the northern side, most of them have blood feuds with the Huns. However, when it comes to national wars, there are not many times, the most dangerous one, almost At the time of Emperor Wen, the Huns directly attacked near the Ganquan Palace. For this reason, Emperor Wen even put on armor himself, expressing that he would fight to the death with the Huns.
But, to put it bluntly, things like military affairs have always served politics. Both Emperor Wen and the old Shang Shanyu found out in the end that if both sides really fight with all their might, then no one will have a good fruit to eat. .
The Huns may be like the Donghu people back then, their backyard caught fire, and their status was replaced by other tribes. As for the big Han, the achievements of many years of cultivation and rest will be destroyed. The world is in chaos.
Therefore, in the end, everyone re-signed the peace agreement, agreeing that the inside of the Great Wall belongs to the Han Dynasty, and the outside of the Great Wall belongs to the Xiongnu. There are more verbal lawsuits.
If it is placed in some later dynasties, they are already satisfied with such a situation. The main thing is that during the chaos of China, everyone was scared. If it is not to that extent, they will not want to have too much trouble with these nomads. conflict.
However, in the Han Dynasty, the idea of great revenge is popular at the moment. Therefore, the attitude towards the Xiongnu, even the main peace faction, is only that the Han Dynasty is not ready yet, and when it is ready, then the Han Dynasty is not ready. Revenge in one fell swoop.It does not feel that such a peace policy can continue forever.
Liu Che was young and energetic, and he couldn't hide his thoughts at all. A fool could see that this young emperor was already full of hostility towards the Huns, and he didn't want to restrain himself at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done anything in the past few years After the establishment of the Habayashi Guard, the Huben Army, and the Jianzhang Palace, they were almost used as a staff office. Therefore, Wang Hui directly opposed the marriage in the court, saying that the Huns were capricious and neglected righteousness when they saw benefits. Meat buns beat dogs, and if they don't return, the Huns will definitely turn their backs.
And the representative of the peace faction is Han Anguo, who is also a hard worker. He originally followed Liang Wang Liu Wu. He made a lot of contributions in the process of pacifying the Seven Kingdoms. A reliable boss, let alone Feng Liehou, didn't even get a Guanneihou.In the end, he was sandwiched between Liu Wu and the first emperor, and his reputation was established, but his future was very limited.As for Liu Wu, he felt that he was a man who was in the wrong, and the first emperor thought that he belonged to Liu Wu. Once Liu Wu died, he was even more sad. He was directly found guilty by the new King of Liang, and naturally lost his position.
When Tian Fu came to power and Han Anguo went through Tian Fu's path, he could be regarded as sitting on the position of doctor censor.Of course, he still has the ability, and he has a long-term vision. He feels that the marriage must continue first. It's fine to defend the city, but if you want to go out, sorry, is it enough?Can the logistics keep up?The cavalry of this era actually dismounted and fought on foot after arriving at the place, can you believe it?
Even though Han Anguo knew the truth was always disliked, he still expressed his opinion. Although Liu Che felt aggrieved, he finally agreed and used the seal on the Huns' letter of peace, according to the previous rules. , I picked a lord from among the vassals, and gave him a dowry. There are quite a lot of silk and the like, but the utensils for dowry are either lacquerware or bronze ware. As for the iron ware that the Huns desire, I’m sorry, we don’t have enough. use it.
The Huns just wanted peace of mind. After all, if they wanted to conquer the West, they had to prevent the Han people from making trouble for them. Although the small countries in the Western Regions were rich, they were not very suitable for grazing and did not conform to the customs of the Huns. Therefore, the Western Expedition is fine, but the old nest is still on the grassland. They can't take people to beat the Huns in front, and the Han people will copy their old nest later!
What's more, the Han people's marriage has always been like this, no matter how you open your mouth, I have so much, if you want love, if you don't want it, then you come and beat me, if you are not afraid of breaking your good teeth, then you come here!
The Huns left with their peace missions, and speculators like Wang Hui had already started secretly planning to make trouble.
Sure enough, within a few months of the Huns leaving, Wang Hui expressed that he would recommend a loyal and patriotic businessman to Liu Che.
Nie Yi is not a loyal and patriotic person. The reason why this family can make a fortune and hook up with Wang Hui is because they are all engaged in smuggling business. Drinks and other things are transported to the various tribes of the Huns, and then they can be exchanged for good things from the Huns. In addition to cattle, sheep and horses, there are also various trophies they robbed from the Western Regions. Luck Well, people will pay the bill directly with the exquisite gold coins minted in the Western Regions.Gold was definitely a hard currency in the Han Dynasty. There is no way. The coins on the market today are called a currency system. In this era, coin casting is not the exclusive power of the imperial court. People can also cast their own coins.Like those loan sharks, conscientious ones, get you three baht, four baht, unscrupulous ones, it’s not bad to give you a copper piece that can be broken when dropped on the ground!Landlords lend money out of small buckets, and big buckets of money in. These usurers also put out bad money and get good money in.
In short, if the business reaches a certain scale, it is best to mint coins by yourself, otherwise, the tricks on the copper coins will kill you, and for those small businessmen, they are more inclined to barter, In other words, only linen and silk are accepted, which are also hard currencies.
As for gold, it is different. This thing is generally only popular in the upper class. Liehou has to offer gold to the ancestral temple every year. There is a shortage of catties and taels on it. There are not a small number of Liehou who have been killed due to color problems.And when those princes and princes were buried, a large amount of gold was buried with them. This led to a very high chance of being stolen in the tombs of the Han Dynasty later, because even landlords with a little money, after the death of their elders, had to find a way to give them back. The elders buried a few gold cakes with them, because it is not uncommon for families to become impoverished due to funerals.
Therefore, businessmen like Nie Yi liked the gold coins in the hands of the Huns the most, but in the Han Dynasty, money alone was useless.Rich businessmen are like leeks to the upper class. If they are short of money, they can just cut a stubble.Just in the mausoleums of several emperors of the Han Dynasty, I don’t know how many powerful and wealthy businessmen in the localities were killed.
If the emperor wants to build a mausoleum, someone must guard the mausoleum, and the surrounding area must be well developed. What should we do?Call the county below, and submit a list. If there are any wealthy businessmen and big landlords in your territory who are rich and have a bad reputation in the local area, let them move to Lingyi!
People are far from their hometowns, these rich and powerful merchants are in the local area, have resources, have connections, and have developed for a long time. Maybe they will become aristocratic families in the future, but when they arrive in Guanzhongling, hehe, what else, no matter how much money they bring, In the eyes of others, it's just bringing trouble on yourself. Finding a few crimes can directly deprive you of your property and make you a commoner.
Therefore, in this era, businessmen want to stand out. On the one hand, they have to spend money to enhance their titles, so that they can rise from the businessman to the class of nobles. After that, they can return to their hometowns and buy land to cleanse themselves.
However, the titles that money can buy are limited. The imperial court bestows titles on the common people when there are happy events from time to time. Therefore, the military title system left by the Qin Dynasty is now in name only, and the titles at the bottom are worthless at all. As long as the people below live long enough and have not committed any crimes, they can easily get a not-so-low title.
In this case, it can only be meritorious service!Nie Yi is not a conservative person, if he was a conservative person, he would not dare to do business with the Huns!Businessmen like them used to have a lot of contacts with the rich and powerful. Over there, Wang Hui just let out a sentence of unknown meaning, and Nie Yi knew that he needed to seize this opportunity.If his plan can be successful, then he is no longer a lowly businessman, but can truly control his own destiny to a certain extent.
Therefore, he quickly gave Wang Hui an answer, and Wang Hui immediately wrote to see Liu Che.
When Liu Che heard this, he immediately regained his spirits. This is very feasible!Immediately make a decision and settle the matter.
In fact, Shu Yun has been paying attention to the affairs of the court, and naturally heard about this series of operations. Sometimes, she really feels that the people at this time are really too simple!
Nie Yi's strategy is not surprising at all, it is nothing more than a countermeasure, get a spy, trick the Hun army to come to Mayi, and then the army will lie in ambush near Mayi, and then just wipe out the Huns all at once!
That's right, that's it. The problem is that the Huns are not fools. The Huns have special ranger scouts. These people can judge the number and movement of the enemy from a long distance. If you mobilize more than [-] troops, Can it really be hidden from the eyes and ears of the Huns?
Shu Yun just persuaded Liu Che a little bit to be careful, then Liu Che's face was pulled down, and he just walked away, and then went to find Wei Zifu.The beauties in the palace have their own characteristics. Wei Zifu gave birth to two daughters, but she did not become a yellow-faced woman. On the contrary, because of her submissive and quiet temperament, Liu Che would go to her when he was in a bad mood. After all, so many concubines Among them, she has the lowest status, and the only one who can rely on him is the emperor. As for the other concubines, most of them are trying to find their way around, either they are attached to the queen mother, or they are attached to the queen. There is no way, everyone has no children, Liu Che They are also very ruthless. In this harem, doting means everything. Without doting, it is really impossible to maintain basic decency. Most of them are not from prominent natal families, so they can give too little support.What else can they do if they are not attached to the superior?
As for the Queen Mother, those who attached to her were originally the beauties sent up by the Wang family, the Tian family, and even Princess Pingyang. Those who entered the palace through other channels naturally had to attach themselves to the queen, Shu Yun.
No matter how ambitious these women are, Shu Yun has no habit of embarrassing these women. She is not short of money, and she is too lazy to be harsh on these people. In Liu Che's harem, from beginning to end, there are only a few people who are really favored. The other concubines may have been favored for a short time, but in the end they just died lonely, so Shu Yun was happy to give them some dignity.When Liu Che died, she was even willing to give a certain dowry to the childless concubines, send them out of the palace, and let them marry on their own, just like Emperor Wen did back then.
Shu Yun is much more generous than the Queen Mother. Therefore, in fact, more concubines are willing to get close to Shu Yun, the queen. It is a pity that Shu Yun is not short of them in clothing and jewelry. As for them running to the Jiaofang Hall To flatter, Shu Yun is still indifferent. He has to teach his son, compile teaching materials, and deduce what kind of policies he should adopt in the future according to the characteristics of this era. How can he have time to listen to the nonsense of these concubines.
In this way, Wei Zifu stood out among these concubines. Although she was sent by Princess Pingyang, Wei Zifu always showed a neutral attitude even if the Queen Mother once wanted to show her favor. On the one hand, the Empress Dowager wants to use her to check and balance the Empress Shu Yun, hoping that she will give birth to a son. On the other hand, Wei Zifu can be regarded as a concubine who has given birth to a princess and cannot be disposed of at will. Therefore, she can only be blamed I don't know how to praise, and then let it go.
However, what Wei Zifu did was exactly what Liu Che wanted. Liu Che was extremely arrogant and conceited. He would rather blame others than blame me. How could he be used to his concubines not relying on him, but instead relying on the Queen Mother? Isn't this slapping his face!But I don't want to think about it, in this deep palace, he, the emperor, doesn't give others status or favor, so it's possible that they are left to fend for themselves.
Therefore, Liu Che doted on Wei Zifu more times than before.As for Wei Zifu, she also understands her position. The royal princess is worthless, that is, the princess who is the same mother as the prince and the future emperor will be worth more in the future. Therefore, she understands that her reliance is not on her daughter, but on Liu Che, the emperor.As for the younger brother Wei Qing, even though he has become a doctor of the Taizhong now, in the eyes of most people, he is lucky to rely on his sister, and his own ability is nothing more than that.
You know, even if Wei Qinghuo Qubing has made great achievements, in "Historical Records", they are still regarded as lucky ministers of foreign relatives!
Therefore, Wei Zifu didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary. When Liu Che came, he served Liu Che comfortably. Nothing went wrong. When Liu Che didn't come, he didn't deliberately invite favors. In short, Liu Che's impression of Wei Zifu is that he is a docile and pleasant beauty who does not fight or grab.
Of course, having children is also a plus. If you can have two, you can have more. Liu Che doesn't trust the queen mother in his heart. Even though Qu Ji and Liu Xun are still young, in Liu Che's heart, these two children Already someone who could threaten his authority.Therefore, he needs other children. Now if any concubine can give him another son, then Liu Che will definitely give this child extra treatment.
In this case, Wei Zifu, who has proved that she can give birth, has naturally become a suitable object. She has a low background, is obedient and easy to control, so what else is there to say?
Wei Zifu also understands his own advantages, even if he is favored now, he is neither arrogant nor impetuous. Compared with her, the noble concubine Zhen that Shu Yun has seen before is simply an idiot.
Madam Dou has reminded Shu Yun several times that Mrs. Wei might be her own threat in the future, and asked Shu Yun to find an excuse to throw Wei Zifu to Yongxiang directly, but Shu Yun didn't bother to pay attention to it. .
Wei Zifu is not a very important person, if it wasn't for Wei Qing and Huo Qubing behind her, then she would be worthless at all.In history, she was able to become a queen more because she gave birth to Liu Che's eldest son, but now
As parents, most of them have a heart to equalize the rich and the poor. You are the emperor, and the world is yours. Then, isn’t it a matter of course that you give some to your brother, uncle, and aunt?
Especially, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, Tian Fu has made great contributions to Liu Che, so you are already the emperor, so what if you reward your uncle who is a hero?Tian Fu was really caring to the Queen Mother. With just one look from the Queen Mother, he could help the Queen Dowager to get things done, and he almost gave the Queen Mother a few sympathetic faces.Although there is no face, but in the Changle Palace of the Queen Mother, there are still a few eunuchs with fine features, which makes Liu Che feel that his father's head is a little green.
In short, with the Queen Mother, Tian Fu is fine no matter what, but Liu Che becomes more disobedient as he grows older, so he doesn't think about it, without her, a mother who has prepared early, how could he be where he is today.Think about it, when the Queen Mother was still the Crown Prince Liangdi, she first said that she dreamed of Emperor Gao, and then she dreamed of a great sun in her arms. In short, she had made enough preparations, which meant that this child Extraordinary history.
At that time, the Queen Mother was walking in the harem to spread rumors, and then, Tian Fu and his brothers were helping to build momentum outside, such as Liu Che's legendary background, and the rumors of the golden house hidden beauty, they were all spread!In short, just like Dou Taizhu felt that without her mother and daughter, Liu Che could not sit on the throne, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, without her and Wang Jiatian's family, Liu Che could not sit on the throne either!
So, now that Liu Che is the emperor, isn't it time for them to sit in a row and share the fruits?
This is the way the Queen Mother thinks. She will not consider the future of the big man, nor will she consider the prestige and authority of her son.After Liu Che knew what the Queen Mother was thinking, he was about to collapse.
Liu Che is still in the second stage of middle school now, thinking that everything in the world revolves around him, but the cold reality wakes him up, telling him that the idea is too beautiful, those people he thought revolved around him, everyone They all have their own thoughts, and you are just a springboard for them to achieve their goals.
For a while, the relationship between Liu Che and the Queen Mother, Tian Fu and others almost dropped to a freezing point. It is a pity that he trusted his own mother too much at the beginning, and had no restrictions on many powers of the Queen Mother. Therefore, his few Uncle still has the palace registration in his hand, so he can enter the palace at will. Most importantly, he hardly has much influence here in Changle Palace.
Although the empress dowager, empress, and many concubines in the Han Palace lived in the entire Changle Palace complex, the situation in the Changle Palace was much more complicated than that of the Weiyang Palace, which was almost ruled by the emperor alone.Leaving aside the empress dowager, those favorite concubines in the palace are not cheap lamps.
For a long time, in the palace, those palace people have always followed the wind and pushed the rudder. Chasing power, who can protect them, who can give them a better future, so naturally most of them are speculators, as for loyalty, they will be loyal to the most powerful person.
For example, in the Changle Palace, even if the Empress Dowager transferred a lot of people to Shu Yun, these people didn't mind giving the Empress Dowager some time, because the Empress Dowager might have nothing to do with Shu Yun as a queen, but whatever If you find a reason, you can deal with these palace people.
As for Shu Yun, after she had two princes, even though Liu Che's attitude was rather ambiguous, those palace people in the palace treated Shu Yun very respectfully. , for a queen with a son and a reputation, it is almost impossible to do anything to her.So in the eyes of these palace people, as long as Shu Yun can keep his life, then the overall situation has actually been settled.As long as the eldest son of the emperor does not die young, the position of the crown prince is even if it is not ten to nine, it is seventy-eight out of ten. Even if there is no eldest son, there is still a second son, and these are all princes born by the emperor. Therefore, Shu Yun will also be the queen mother in the future. Then, they Why do you want to fight against the queen Shu Yun?
And those favored concubines of Liu Che have also recruited some people. After all, not everyone can climb up to the empress dowager. Then, to attach to a favored concubine, or a concubine with more potential, is the only way these palace people can retreat. The second choice.
However, Liu Che seemed to be shocked by his biological mother and uncle, and he began to look for other stimuli.
Shu Yun has already heard that Liu Che has a close relationship with Liu Ling, the lord of Huainan. Liu Ling has been in Chang'an for several years. As for Huainan King Liu An, he is almost the heart of Huainan King. The Empress Dowager liked it, so she created a Huainanzi, and there were many stories about gods and ghosts in it. To be honest, it is more interesting to regard it as a myth or legend.But after reading the whole article, you will find that "Huainanzi" is not the theory of Huang Lao, but just a miscellaneous theory wrapped in Huang Lao's skin, which is more similar to that of "Lu Shi Chunqiu".
Of course, the cut version was shown to the Empress Dowager, and to be honest, the Empress Dowager was very interested in it.Older people will always believe in these ghost stories.Another reason is that since the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion and the deposed prince Liu Rong was forced to death, the empress dowager has become more tolerant towards the clan. The queen mother still has a good impression of these princes and kings, and thinks they are also the pillars of the country.In addition, the Empress Dowager experienced the death of Liu Chang, the Li Wang of Huainan, and knew that Emperor Wen had regrets about it, and later told the Empress Dowager that if he had known this, he would have locked Liu Chang in the Imperial Prison Closed for a lifetime, it will not be so persecuted.This is also the reason why Liu An would try to please the Empress Dowager, it is best to speak on her side.
After the death of the Empress Dowager, Liu An did not reduce the frequency of his activities in Chang'an, and even increased a lot. Originally, Liu Ling came to Chang'an in the first year of Jianyuan. The banner at the beginning was to ask the Empress Dowager to come to Chang'an. Choose a good marriage for her. After all, as the head of the old Liu family, it is normal to marry a lieutenant. However, there are not many candidates for a lieutenant in Huainan Kingdom. Naturally, there are more heroes in Chang'an.
Banners are banners, the Empress Dowager is old, and her memory for these matters is not very good. Liu Ling has to deal with a lot of officials and nobles, who knows what is going on with her.In particular, Liu Ling was only in her teens at that time, and her fame spread far and wide. It was inevitable that people would think that she was frivolous and shameless. Naturally, no one would continue to mention it to Liu Ling.
In the beginning, Liu Ling was actually just hanging around among these officials and nobles, and didn't really let them take advantage of them. Later, the queen had a son and was still in good health. Immediately, Liu An became anxious.
As for Liu Ling, no matter whether she was guided by her father or she was also intoxicated by this kind of feeling, when she hooked her fingers, there were many people rushing forward, wanting to have a kiss with her.In short, she is now the most famous socialite in Chang'an's social arena!
Then, she hooked up with Liu Che.Although Liu Che is not a hungry ghost, he is by no means a person who can keep himself clean. On the contrary, he has strong tastes and mixed tastes.This is also related to the atmosphere at this time. These days, there are not many legal or even moral restrictions on the relationship between men and women. That's it.
Liu Ling should be regarded as Liu Che's cousin in name, but, as the emperor, why did he care about these things? Therefore, under Liu Ling's hookup, Liu Che naturally rolled with her. From Liu Che's point of view, The beauties who come to your door don't take advantage of the advantages, so there is no psychological burden, and there is an extra pleasure.
When Shu Yun heard about this in the palace, he felt it was ridiculous. For a person like Liu Che, morality has always restricted others. Many of those princes and kings were expelled from the country because of ethical issues. In the end, when it came to Liu Che himself, he had a double standard.
Regarding the emperor's secret affairs, ordinary people dare not talk nonsense, lest the Tingwei come to the door. Of course, it is possible to communicate in private. After Liu Ling and Liu Che have such a relationship, in the social circle It immediately became more and more popular. It is impossible for everyone to marry a woman like her, but it is still a very face-saving thing to have such a lover. Some people who have had relationships with Liu Ling get together, and they each have a tacit understanding It feels like they keep the same secret with each other, and each of them seems like brothers and friends.
Liu Ling's actions naturally brought many benefits to Liu An, that is, there are many people in the court who say Liu An's benefits, even if Liu An made some outrageous actions, few people would be squeamish , lest those cheap son-in-laws have trouble with themselves.
One of the things Liu Ling did wrong was overestimating his own charm, or overestimating Liu Che's feelings for him. Liu Che was nothing more than looking for excitement for her, and he didn't have any sincerity at all. What is there to rest assured about Huainan Wang, the so-called elder of the clan.Therefore, in Huainan country, what should be monitored should continue to be monitored, and on Liu Ling's side, if you think of it, then you can see it, if you can't think of it, then forget it.
As for Shu Yun, he didn't mean to summon Liu Ling, but the Queen Mother was a little impatient, so she summoned Liu Ling once and warned her.But what is this kind of warning to Liu Ling?As the lord of Huainan, even if the Queen Mother has any thoughts about Liu Ling, she can't really do anything to her. Is it possible that the Queen Mother still has the courage of the late emperor back then. After losing a game of chess, she picked up the chessboard and directly It won't work to smash someone's head!The Queen Mother still doesn't want to bear the charge of rebelling against King Huainan.
Since the Queen Mother is only stern, then Liu Ling is naturally fearless. She even turned around and hooked up with Tian Fu. Although Tian Fu is ugly, he is not young, and looks a bit wretched, but he is very popular now. , The power is overwhelming, and he does not know how many things can be saved by having him make it convenient for his father.
After the Queen Mother heard about it, she was so angry that she was half dead. As for Liu Che, after knowing that Liu Ling had an affair with Tian Fu, he immediately felt a little disgusted. Now he can't see Tian Fu at all. However, his mother's queen stopped and protected him, and Tian Fu now seemed to have a full-fledged posture in the court, which made it difficult for Liu Che to do anything to Tian Fu for a while, so he had to endure it first!But it's okay to endure Tian Fu, and it's possible to continue to endure Liu Ling. Therefore, Liu Che will no longer go to the appointment when Liu Ling asks to see him again.It made Liu Ling regret it a little, but soon, she stopped thinking about it. With her identity, it was impossible for her to maintain an open relationship with Liu Che. As for Liu Che, she never really agreed to it. What's the matter with her, so in the end, Liu Ling had to doubt his charm as a woman, and then let it go!
For Liu Che, the matter of Liu Ling was nothing more than an embellishment. Since he became the throne, he wanted to do something big to show his existence. This was the case with the Taichu calendar before, but everyone respected the Taichu calendar. Yes, but, because of this, I didn't think that Liu Che, the emperor, was so powerful.Especially now in the court, people recommended by Tian Fu occupy most of the positions. These people are not in line with Liu Che's wishes at all, and their loyalty to Liu Che is limited. As for the old people who were promoted to the late emperor, let alone those What people are most used to is relying on the old and selling the old, and thinks that Liu Che should follow their pace.
Liu Che now has a deep understanding that to be an emperor, you have to have solid achievements, otherwise, in the eyes of others, you will be just a child who can be fooled casually.
After Liu Che had such an idea, some people would naturally be opportunistic.
Liu Che's heart disease lies in the Xiongnu, and the war faction in the court does not have the upper hand. However, after so many years of accumulation in the Han Dynasty, many people in the military are also eager to try.Don't look at Tian Fu's appointment as prime minister, in fact, this person does not conform to the Han Dynasty's worship rules. In the Han Dynasty, if you want to be a prime minister, you must have military merits. The good sister is lucky to come in.
Therefore, there are still many people in the court who are not convinced by this. Others also feel that they have made contributions to the emperor, but now they can only waste time in their original positions. It's because they have forgotten themselves, so they feel that they should remind the emperor. Of course, it is a bit taboo to ask for rewards, so let's do what we like!
The main representative here is Da Xing Ling Wang Hui, who urged the first emperor to make Liu Rong's mother Li Ji his queen, and was dismissed from office.In fact, everyone knew at that time that the first emperor was angry with Li Ji. The first emperor had just suffered a serious illness and asked Li Ji if he would take care of his other concubines and children. In the end, Li Ji just said "old dog", Immediately, the first emperor did not dare to get sick, nor did he dare to die!At this juncture, asking him to make Li Ji his queen was simply adding fuel to the fire.Because of the same surname of Wang, this man took refuge in Wang Xin at the beginning, and that's how the incident happened. After the late emperor passed away, this official returned to his original post, but he failed to get what he thought was a reward for meritorious deeds. Now, Liu Che ascended the throne It has been seven or eight years, and Wang Hui is not too young. If he waits any longer, he will probably become an official in the position of Daxing. He feels that he can't wait any longer.
Liu Che's heart disease lies in the Huns, so Wang Hui naturally wants to do what he likes, give Liu Che a chance, and give himself a chance.
Just in time, the Huns sent envoys to express their desire to continue the marriage agreement of the year, and Liu Che was full of anger. As for the property, it is not too much, it is just a form, but this is still a shame to the Han Dynasty.
Over the years, the Han Dynasty has certainly been thriving. Although the Huns have experienced several internal power changes, they have become stronger and stronger in recent years. There is no way. The Han Dynasty is a hard bone and cannot be gnawed. For the Huns, it is completely vulnerable. The Huns have made several western expeditions. Countries such as Wusun, Qiuci, and Kangju are almost impossible to pose any threat to the Huns. Therefore, every time the Western Expeditions , are all rewarding.So that later, whenever the Huns encountered snowstorms and droughts, they would go to the Western Regions to recover their losses.
That is to say, when King Youxian was there, he had been fighting against the Han Dynasty, but later the military officials launched a coup and directly killed his brother, leaving only his nephew Yi Zhixie, and then cut off Yi Zhixie The many influences of this nephew, it can be said that, in a sense, the military minister Shan Yu is almost pro-Han faction now!After all, the Huns are not fearless, and they can easily get benefits. Why go to the bottom of the Great Wall and leave a pile of bones, and they can't get any benefits in the end?
Therefore, the Huns now like to take advantage of some verbal advantages, such as making the size of the credential an inch wider than that of the Han Dynasty, and making the title of Shanyu particularly tall. As for other things, they are really unfair. The Han Dynasty was too persecuted here.
But in this era, this is already a great humiliation to the Han Dynasty.
For China's concept, names and utensils are the only ones, and people cannot be fake!The Chinese call themselves nobles of the upper kingdom, but they look down on Yidi in various ways. They say that they lead beasts to eat people and drink blood like hair, which means that Yidi is uncivilized.As for the Xiongnu, they had their own writing, and even with the help of the traitor, Bank of China, they established a rough system.That is to say, starting from the Huns, those nomadic peoples who are interested in the Central Plains, once they become kings and establish a system, they will be a great threat to the Central Plains!The Central Plains court has always been very sensitive to this.
In particular, if it wasn’t for the war at the end of Qin Dynasty, in fact, in the eyes of the Central Plains regime, the Huns would be nothing more than little brothers. Whether it was Yanzhao or Qin’s unification of the Central Plains, they would hang and beat the Huns. Even, in fact, on the grasslands back then, The real overlord cannot be said to be the Xiongnu, first it was Yiqu, and later, Donghu. It was only after Modun Shanyu joined forces with the Wusun people and defeated Donghu that the Xiongnu became the overlord of the grassland.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains was full of wars, and there were ten rooms and nine empty spaces. Even if Liu Bang and the others were besieged and climbed the mountain, the Central Plains had King Qin’s army rushing over, but they did not have enough financial resources and manpower to fight another national war with the Huns. , The imperial court continued to cultivate their health and rest, and then made a marriage agreement with Maodun Shanyu.
Over the years, there have been almost no small conflicts between the two countries. As for the northern side, most of them have blood feuds with the Huns. However, when it comes to national wars, there are not many times, the most dangerous one, almost At the time of Emperor Wen, the Huns directly attacked near the Ganquan Palace. For this reason, Emperor Wen even put on armor himself, expressing that he would fight to the death with the Huns.
But, to put it bluntly, things like military affairs have always served politics. Both Emperor Wen and the old Shang Shanyu found out in the end that if both sides really fight with all their might, then no one will have a good fruit to eat. .
The Huns may be like the Donghu people back then, their backyard caught fire, and their status was replaced by other tribes. As for the big Han, the achievements of many years of cultivation and rest will be destroyed. The world is in chaos.
Therefore, in the end, everyone re-signed the peace agreement, agreeing that the inside of the Great Wall belongs to the Han Dynasty, and the outside of the Great Wall belongs to the Xiongnu. There are more verbal lawsuits.
If it is placed in some later dynasties, they are already satisfied with such a situation. The main thing is that during the chaos of China, everyone was scared. If it is not to that extent, they will not want to have too much trouble with these nomads. conflict.
However, in the Han Dynasty, the idea of great revenge is popular at the moment. Therefore, the attitude towards the Xiongnu, even the main peace faction, is only that the Han Dynasty is not ready yet, and when it is ready, then the Han Dynasty is not ready. Revenge in one fell swoop.It does not feel that such a peace policy can continue forever.
Liu Che was young and energetic, and he couldn't hide his thoughts at all. A fool could see that this young emperor was already full of hostility towards the Huns, and he didn't want to restrain himself at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done anything in the past few years After the establishment of the Habayashi Guard, the Huben Army, and the Jianzhang Palace, they were almost used as a staff office. Therefore, Wang Hui directly opposed the marriage in the court, saying that the Huns were capricious and neglected righteousness when they saw benefits. Meat buns beat dogs, and if they don't return, the Huns will definitely turn their backs.
And the representative of the peace faction is Han Anguo, who is also a hard worker. He originally followed Liang Wang Liu Wu. He made a lot of contributions in the process of pacifying the Seven Kingdoms. A reliable boss, let alone Feng Liehou, didn't even get a Guanneihou.In the end, he was sandwiched between Liu Wu and the first emperor, and his reputation was established, but his future was very limited.As for Liu Wu, he felt that he was a man who was in the wrong, and the first emperor thought that he belonged to Liu Wu. Once Liu Wu died, he was even more sad. He was directly found guilty by the new King of Liang, and naturally lost his position.
When Tian Fu came to power and Han Anguo went through Tian Fu's path, he could be regarded as sitting on the position of doctor censor.Of course, he still has the ability, and he has a long-term vision. He feels that the marriage must continue first. It's fine to defend the city, but if you want to go out, sorry, is it enough?Can the logistics keep up?The cavalry of this era actually dismounted and fought on foot after arriving at the place, can you believe it?
Even though Han Anguo knew the truth was always disliked, he still expressed his opinion. Although Liu Che felt aggrieved, he finally agreed and used the seal on the Huns' letter of peace, according to the previous rules. , I picked a lord from among the vassals, and gave him a dowry. There are quite a lot of silk and the like, but the utensils for dowry are either lacquerware or bronze ware. As for the iron ware that the Huns desire, I’m sorry, we don’t have enough. use it.
The Huns just wanted peace of mind. After all, if they wanted to conquer the West, they had to prevent the Han people from making trouble for them. Although the small countries in the Western Regions were rich, they were not very suitable for grazing and did not conform to the customs of the Huns. Therefore, the Western Expedition is fine, but the old nest is still on the grassland. They can't take people to beat the Huns in front, and the Han people will copy their old nest later!
What's more, the Han people's marriage has always been like this, no matter how you open your mouth, I have so much, if you want love, if you don't want it, then you come and beat me, if you are not afraid of breaking your good teeth, then you come here!
The Huns left with their peace missions, and speculators like Wang Hui had already started secretly planning to make trouble.
Sure enough, within a few months of the Huns leaving, Wang Hui expressed that he would recommend a loyal and patriotic businessman to Liu Che.
Nie Yi is not a loyal and patriotic person. The reason why this family can make a fortune and hook up with Wang Hui is because they are all engaged in smuggling business. Drinks and other things are transported to the various tribes of the Huns, and then they can be exchanged for good things from the Huns. In addition to cattle, sheep and horses, there are also various trophies they robbed from the Western Regions. Luck Well, people will pay the bill directly with the exquisite gold coins minted in the Western Regions.Gold was definitely a hard currency in the Han Dynasty. There is no way. The coins on the market today are called a currency system. In this era, coin casting is not the exclusive power of the imperial court. People can also cast their own coins.Like those loan sharks, conscientious ones, get you three baht, four baht, unscrupulous ones, it’s not bad to give you a copper piece that can be broken when dropped on the ground!Landlords lend money out of small buckets, and big buckets of money in. These usurers also put out bad money and get good money in.
In short, if the business reaches a certain scale, it is best to mint coins by yourself, otherwise, the tricks on the copper coins will kill you, and for those small businessmen, they are more inclined to barter, In other words, only linen and silk are accepted, which are also hard currencies.
As for gold, it is different. This thing is generally only popular in the upper class. Liehou has to offer gold to the ancestral temple every year. There is a shortage of catties and taels on it. There are not a small number of Liehou who have been killed due to color problems.And when those princes and princes were buried, a large amount of gold was buried with them. This led to a very high chance of being stolen in the tombs of the Han Dynasty later, because even landlords with a little money, after the death of their elders, had to find a way to give them back. The elders buried a few gold cakes with them, because it is not uncommon for families to become impoverished due to funerals.
Therefore, businessmen like Nie Yi liked the gold coins in the hands of the Huns the most, but in the Han Dynasty, money alone was useless.Rich businessmen are like leeks to the upper class. If they are short of money, they can just cut a stubble.Just in the mausoleums of several emperors of the Han Dynasty, I don’t know how many powerful and wealthy businessmen in the localities were killed.
If the emperor wants to build a mausoleum, someone must guard the mausoleum, and the surrounding area must be well developed. What should we do?Call the county below, and submit a list. If there are any wealthy businessmen and big landlords in your territory who are rich and have a bad reputation in the local area, let them move to Lingyi!
People are far from their hometowns, these rich and powerful merchants are in the local area, have resources, have connections, and have developed for a long time. Maybe they will become aristocratic families in the future, but when they arrive in Guanzhongling, hehe, what else, no matter how much money they bring, In the eyes of others, it's just bringing trouble on yourself. Finding a few crimes can directly deprive you of your property and make you a commoner.
Therefore, in this era, businessmen want to stand out. On the one hand, they have to spend money to enhance their titles, so that they can rise from the businessman to the class of nobles. After that, they can return to their hometowns and buy land to cleanse themselves.
However, the titles that money can buy are limited. The imperial court bestows titles on the common people when there are happy events from time to time. Therefore, the military title system left by the Qin Dynasty is now in name only, and the titles at the bottom are worthless at all. As long as the people below live long enough and have not committed any crimes, they can easily get a not-so-low title.
In this case, it can only be meritorious service!Nie Yi is not a conservative person, if he was a conservative person, he would not dare to do business with the Huns!Businessmen like them used to have a lot of contacts with the rich and powerful. Over there, Wang Hui just let out a sentence of unknown meaning, and Nie Yi knew that he needed to seize this opportunity.If his plan can be successful, then he is no longer a lowly businessman, but can truly control his own destiny to a certain extent.
Therefore, he quickly gave Wang Hui an answer, and Wang Hui immediately wrote to see Liu Che.
When Liu Che heard this, he immediately regained his spirits. This is very feasible!Immediately make a decision and settle the matter.
In fact, Shu Yun has been paying attention to the affairs of the court, and naturally heard about this series of operations. Sometimes, she really feels that the people at this time are really too simple!
Nie Yi's strategy is not surprising at all, it is nothing more than a countermeasure, get a spy, trick the Hun army to come to Mayi, and then the army will lie in ambush near Mayi, and then just wipe out the Huns all at once!
That's right, that's it. The problem is that the Huns are not fools. The Huns have special ranger scouts. These people can judge the number and movement of the enemy from a long distance. If you mobilize more than [-] troops, Can it really be hidden from the eyes and ears of the Huns?
Shu Yun just persuaded Liu Che a little bit to be careful, then Liu Che's face was pulled down, and he just walked away, and then went to find Wei Zifu.The beauties in the palace have their own characteristics. Wei Zifu gave birth to two daughters, but she did not become a yellow-faced woman. On the contrary, because of her submissive and quiet temperament, Liu Che would go to her when he was in a bad mood. After all, so many concubines Among them, she has the lowest status, and the only one who can rely on him is the emperor. As for the other concubines, most of them are trying to find their way around, either they are attached to the queen mother, or they are attached to the queen. There is no way, everyone has no children, Liu Che They are also very ruthless. In this harem, doting means everything. Without doting, it is really impossible to maintain basic decency. Most of them are not from prominent natal families, so they can give too little support.What else can they do if they are not attached to the superior?
As for the Queen Mother, those who attached to her were originally the beauties sent up by the Wang family, the Tian family, and even Princess Pingyang. Those who entered the palace through other channels naturally had to attach themselves to the queen, Shu Yun.
No matter how ambitious these women are, Shu Yun has no habit of embarrassing these women. She is not short of money, and she is too lazy to be harsh on these people. In Liu Che's harem, from beginning to end, there are only a few people who are really favored. The other concubines may have been favored for a short time, but in the end they just died lonely, so Shu Yun was happy to give them some dignity.When Liu Che died, she was even willing to give a certain dowry to the childless concubines, send them out of the palace, and let them marry on their own, just like Emperor Wen did back then.
Shu Yun is much more generous than the Queen Mother. Therefore, in fact, more concubines are willing to get close to Shu Yun, the queen. It is a pity that Shu Yun is not short of them in clothing and jewelry. As for them running to the Jiaofang Hall To flatter, Shu Yun is still indifferent. He has to teach his son, compile teaching materials, and deduce what kind of policies he should adopt in the future according to the characteristics of this era. How can he have time to listen to the nonsense of these concubines.
In this way, Wei Zifu stood out among these concubines. Although she was sent by Princess Pingyang, Wei Zifu always showed a neutral attitude even if the Queen Mother once wanted to show her favor. On the one hand, the Empress Dowager wants to use her to check and balance the Empress Shu Yun, hoping that she will give birth to a son. On the other hand, Wei Zifu can be regarded as a concubine who has given birth to a princess and cannot be disposed of at will. Therefore, she can only be blamed I don't know how to praise, and then let it go.
However, what Wei Zifu did was exactly what Liu Che wanted. Liu Che was extremely arrogant and conceited. He would rather blame others than blame me. How could he be used to his concubines not relying on him, but instead relying on the Queen Mother? Isn't this slapping his face!But I don't want to think about it, in this deep palace, he, the emperor, doesn't give others status or favor, so it's possible that they are left to fend for themselves.
Therefore, Liu Che doted on Wei Zifu more times than before.As for Wei Zifu, she also understands her position. The royal princess is worthless, that is, the princess who is the same mother as the prince and the future emperor will be worth more in the future. Therefore, she understands that her reliance is not on her daughter, but on Liu Che, the emperor.As for the younger brother Wei Qing, even though he has become a doctor of the Taizhong now, in the eyes of most people, he is lucky to rely on his sister, and his own ability is nothing more than that.
You know, even if Wei Qinghuo Qubing has made great achievements, in "Historical Records", they are still regarded as lucky ministers of foreign relatives!
Therefore, Wei Zifu didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary. When Liu Che came, he served Liu Che comfortably. Nothing went wrong. When Liu Che didn't come, he didn't deliberately invite favors. In short, Liu Che's impression of Wei Zifu is that he is a docile and pleasant beauty who does not fight or grab.
Of course, having children is also a plus. If you can have two, you can have more. Liu Che doesn't trust the queen mother in his heart. Even though Qu Ji and Liu Xun are still young, in Liu Che's heart, these two children Already someone who could threaten his authority.Therefore, he needs other children. Now if any concubine can give him another son, then Liu Che will definitely give this child extra treatment.
In this case, Wei Zifu, who has proved that she can give birth, has naturally become a suitable object. She has a low background, is obedient and easy to control, so what else is there to say?
