Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 390 This is a temple, not Tang!
The technique of applying no harm has a very high upper limit.

As a ruthless man who can die after the reform, Shen Buha's influence in later generations is not as good as that of other legalists, but his academic ideas have been continuously used by various ruthless men, including Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. , For characters like Zhuge Wuhou, while the upper limit is very high, the lower limit is also very low.

During the Warring States Period, the Korean kings made domestic political affairs so murky, and some operations were really incomprehensible.

The law school attaches great importance to the majesty of the law, so it is necessary to constantly gain prestige, and the magic school is not so troublesome. Flexible use.

"No wonder South Korea perished so quickly. This technique of applying no harm is clearly used by those moderate kings!"

Liu Chang's face was full of disdain.

Lu Lu looked at His Majesty who made a statement, and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, this minister does not think that's the case. Shen's technique will offend many ministers. Only a powerful king can use it. , wouldn't that kill Zhongliang indiscriminately and make life difficult for the people in the country?"

"Shen Buha's academic focus is to make the king better control his ministers. If his ability is strong enough, the ministers should obey themselves. Do they still need to use his academics?"

Lu Lu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually it's not the case. Shen Buha's knowledge not only requires the king to control the ministers, but also attaches great importance to reforming and clarifying the law, so that people in the country know what to do and what not to do."

"fart!"

"Mingfa is Shang Yang's thought!"

Chang Liu interrupted Lu Lu rudely.

"Let you read more books on weekdays, look at you, you can even confuse the core of the law school and the art school. Those teachers that your uncle hired for you were really in vain!"

Being reprimanded by Liu Chang for not having culture is really a bit too shameful.

Lu Lu's face was flushed, and he quibble: "This minister reads the book of Huang Lao a lot, and doesn't know much about Legalism."

"I don't know what you are picking up? When King Wu of Han and Shen Buha asked about politics, Shen Buha once said that people in the country can't know too much, otherwise they will lose their awe. , Fa-rectification is to make people fear the law, Mingfa is what Shang Yang said!"

Lu Lu's eyes widened, "Your Majesty, there has never been a King Wu in Korea. You mean Marquis Han Zhao, right?"

Liu Chang said displeasedly: "This is the gap between you and me."

"When you study, you always hold on to these unimportant things, whether it is King Wu of Han or Marquis Han Zhao, what's the point? Isn't it important to ask about politics? You only remember Marquis Han Zhao, but I remember They asked about the history of the government, and they knew what Shen Buha wanted to express. This is the reason why you are not as good as me!"

"Reading is not to remember those details, but to apply what you have learned and master the knowledge that is really useful to you. Otherwise, what book should you read?"

Lu Lu was startled, he possessed himself and bowed.

"The minister is taught!"

Sima Xi, who was not far away, was thoughtful and wrote quickly.

Liu Chang also noticed this, he couldn't help being overjoyed, waved his hand, and asked Sima Xi to come. Sima Xi went to Liu Chang's side vigilantly, always beware of this tyrant, this tyrant really dared to snatch it.

"His Majesty."

"Now that many schools have come to Chang'an, some of the debates between them are still meaningful. You should send more people to record the arrangement of this classic."

Sima Xi was a little surprised. After so many years, it was the first time that His Majesty had explained the business to him. Such His Majesty looked a little unfamiliar. Sima Xi asked earnestly, "Which schools of debate do you want to record?"

"It's all recorded, there will always be something available, even if we can't use it now, we may not be able to use it in the future."

"Since these people have come to Chang'an, they cannot be spared!"

"These celebrities hide books for their family heirlooms, and they don't want to be known by outsiders. This kind of behavior is really selfish. You have to find a way to get these books out of them, as many as you have! "

Liu Chang explained enthusiastically.

Sima Xi was very unhappy, he frowned and said, "As a king, how can you snatch the minister's books?!"

"I can't obey orders!"

"In the beginning, the king of Qin and the king of Chu cooperated with each other, the king of Qin was responsible for collecting the books from the world, and the king of Chu was responsible for burning them, and then the world's books were lost. Even more so, in the Tianlu Pavilion of the Imperial Palace, there are not many ancient books that can be found.”

"In the years since I came to power, people like Xunzi, Confucius, and Hanzi have never appeared again in the world. I think it's not that there are no wise kings, it's probably because of the loss of books!"

"I have ordered several times to collect the books from the world, but they are printed and distributed to the people of the world to read and study. I want to make more talents appear in various places and even send out the books in the Tianlu Pavilion. Father is still here, because of this action, he will definitely take off his shoes and beat me!"

"But what about them? They value selfishness but ignore the righteousness of the world! Shouldn't this book be hidden in their hands and buried with them?! After I print it, I won't return it to them!"

Listening to Liu Chang's words, Sima Xi was a little shaken.

In fact, what Your Majesty said is right. In the early Han Dynasty, many books were lost, and the most favorite thing for the wealthy and these so-called celebrities is to collect books and use books as their family strength. Stay and be buried with you. Your Majesty is very polite, so you shouldn't object.

Liu Chang grinned, "It turns out that these people are hiding from me, it's rare to come to Chang'an this time. I know that you like books very much, and you often visit ministers and borrow their books to read. Don't you want to know that these people are hiding? How much good stuff?"

"I have heard that among the great scholars who came to Chang'an, there was a man named Fu. His grandfather was a doctor from the Qin state, and he was a hundred years old. He had a book of "Books" hidden at home, don't you want to read it? "

Liu Chang's voice is full of bewitching. Sima Xi has no hobbies, but likes to read. The allure of the whole book is really not low to him.

Sima Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, this is something that will benefit the world, but it's not impossible."

"It's just that although Taishi is also in charge of collecting and arranging books, these people regard books as treasures, and their status as ministers is not high. How can they be obtained?"

Lu Lu had just lost his face in front of Liu Chang. He originally showed his face, but ended up showing his ass. At this moment, he naturally wanted to make up for it.

He immediately said: "It's not easy, they are all in Chang'an at the moment! We tied them up and asked their family to redeem with books? For example, the son of Fu Sheng, we tied him and asked him to be his father. Bring the book back, if you don't give it, we'll tear it up."

Sima Xi burst into anger and was about to curse when Liu Chang took the first step and cursed, "Bullshit!"

Lu Lu was stunned and looked at Liu Chang blankly.

Liu Chang angrily reprimanded: "You are my servant, how can you say such a thing? Are you an official or a robber?!"

Lu Lu was immediately stunned. He wanted to say something, but he looked at Sima Xi, who was beside him, but held back.

Sima Xi glanced at His Majesty and said, "If there is a prince, there must be a minister."

Liu Chang stared at him and nodded, "You're right!"

Sima Xi asked helplessly: "Your Majesty, if I ask for it directly, I'm afraid they won't give it. Maybe Zhi. Others are more suitable."

Although Sima Xi was very eager for the classics, he still did not pull his face down and say Zhidu's name.

"Bullshit, does Zhidu go there to ask for classics? That's why it's called home raiding!"

Liu Chang shook his head, "I asked you to take charge of this matter, of course there is a reason for those people. It is useless to use force to threaten them. Most of them are not afraid of death and are stubborn. If I hit them , How happy they are, the only thing they are afraid of is their own reputation, and reputation, hahaha, isn't that what you have the final say?"

Liu Chang winked, and Sima Xi finally understood what he meant.

He shook his head firmly.

"Your Majesty, I can't use this to blackmail them. This is not something that historians can do."

"It's not that you actually write it, it's just to intimidate you, don't you want to read those books??"

There was no hesitation on Sima Xi's face, and he said seriously; "Your Majesty, if historians use their own likes and dislikes to describe history, accept bribes from others, and use this to blackmail others, can future generations still believe in this history book? Although I like books, I can't ask for them in this way."

Lu Lu was displeased and scolded: "Then why do you target me and Your Majesty everywhere on weekdays?! You also said you can't describe your likes and dislikes?"

"The minister just recorded the words and deeds of His Majesty and the other ministers, how can this be regarded as targeting?"

Lu Lu thought about it for a while, and it seems that it is the same.

Liu Chang looked very calm, he nodded, expressing his understanding.

"Okay, since you don't want to. Then I won't force it either. I'm not a tyrannical ruler. Let's do it. Let Chao Cuo take over as well."

Sima Xi was silent for a moment, "Your Majesty, the position of the minister can be dispensed with, but can we not let Chao Cuo take over?"

"Alright, then let Zhi Du do the job."

Sima Xi was silent for a long time again.

"Your Majesty, tell me, who are you going to ask for it?"

Sima Xi thought about it for a long time. Compared with extortion, it seems more unacceptable to have a legalist as a historian, especially Chao Cuo and Zhidu. What kind of people are they? Sima Xi is the best. It is clear that if they come to record important events in the temple, then it will be completely done. Can they still read what they wrote? ?

After sending Sima Xi away, Liu Chang smiled proudly.

Lu Lu said: "Sima Xi is here just now, I don't dare to say anything, but why did Your Majesty use such a cumbersome method to obtain it? Can't we just kidnap it?"

"Do you know the allusion to pumping fish?"

"Unheard of"

Liu Chang's eyes were full of disappointment, "Let you read more!"

"When the king of Chu attacked Suiguo, he summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures. Some people proposed a way to defraud Chu. There was a man named Yongsheng. Dry, so of course he can catch all the fish in the pond, but by next year, there will be no more fish in the pond!"

"Now these people are like fish in a pond. If we dry up all the water in the pond at one time, of course we can catch the fish, but after that, can we still fish? I don’t dare to come to Chang’an again!”

Lu Lu hesitated for a long time, "Oh, Your Majesty thinks so."

He didn't think about reminding His Majesty what the allusion was called, nor did he point out that it was Chu and Jin, and it didn't matter that Suiguo didn't even have a king. The important thing was that he understood what His Majesty meant.

"Whose idea was it to let Sima Xi do this?"

"Of course it's mine!"

"There are no outsiders here. Why should Your Majesty?"

Liu Chang said in a low voice, "It's Yuan Jun, the commander of the Central Book, this person is so talented!"

"Didn't you say you were going to hang him up and beat him earlier?"

"Oh, after you said that, I remembered it, and I was chatting with you, but Liu Jing hasn't let it go!!"

Liu Chang still thinks highly of Liu Jing, which can be seen from the fact that he personally brought someone to Tingwei to release Liu Jing.

Today's Tingwei is full of a chilling air.

Zhidu's faction looked at the ability of the king, Zhang Budo's art school looked at the ability of the user, and Zhang Shizhi's law school looked at the power of the law. Therefore, the law school was always using big men to brush up. Prestige, they are not the same as those ministers who built their reputations for themselves in later generations. They give prestige to the law, not for themselves. They belong to killing monkeys to show chickens, so that everyone can understand that the law is inviolable, and the more the law is enforced. The more strict they are, the more powerful they will be.

Han Feizi's school is more detoured. The combination of the three and the master must test the ability of the king, his own ability, and the strength of the law. This is more difficult for ordinary people to learn. In Han Fei's time, there were indeed Such a king who is most suitable for him, who can value his talents, is most suitable for his country, and has the strictest laws. It is a pity that the bad is in the word "Han".

If he was not Han Zi, but Qin Zi, maybe everything would be different.

Chao Cuo's knowledge is inherited from this big man, but Chao Cuo's own ability is not as good as Han Xin's, the king he is loyal to is not as good as that one, and the law strength of the big Han he was at is obviously not as strong as Qin's, which led to his tragedy.

If Chao Cuo was born 20 years later and met Emperor Wu, maybe the situation would be different. Under Emperor Wu, Chao Cuo really had a chance to become the fourth virtuous prime minister after Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Zhang Cang.

Liu Jing did not receive any special preferential treatment in the court, and Zhang Shi treated him equally. As for Liu Jing's fault, he insulted the king during court proceedings, which had violated the law.Although Empress Lu banned Fuyi, it doesn't mean that you can reprimand the king in person.

"Hahaha, Duke Liu was so fierce during the court meeting, why don't you continue to abuse at this moment?"

Liu Chang stood outside the fence, looking at Liu Jing in the prison.

In Liu Chang's era, offending the king was actually not that terrible. Although Liu Chang was irritable and irritable, he would beat up ministers, but he was very affectionate and kind. Unless he made a big mistake, he would never Murder for little things.

"The big man has managed well these years. When Emperor Gao sent his ministers to prison, the wall would leak."

Liu Jing narrowed his eyes and said.

Liu Changchang was overjoyed and said, "This is all my credit!"

He was about to step forward to speak, but Yuan An, who was standing beside him, said, "Emperor Gao sent you to prison because he didn't follow your correct advice, not because you insulted the king, and the reason you went to prison was not because of your advice. , but the wrong way of persuasion. I have heard that between rulers and ministers, between fathers and sons, there is etiquette. When the king does something wrong, he can persuade him, but how can he be insulted? This is like eating the meals of adults in the family. , but beating adults because they did something wrong is a serious crime of unfilial piety."

"You committed such a serious crime, but His Majesty didn't arrest you and kill you. You should be grateful to Dade, how dare you speak taunting?!"

At this time, Yuan Ang did not have the slightest dullness that he usually had, and spoke faster and faster, with a strong dialect.

Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, huh?
Isn't he complimenting me?When did you make fun of me? ?

Yuan Ang explained: "Your Majesty, at the beginning, Duke Liu was imprisoned by Emperor Gao for persuading Emperor Gao to withdraw his troops. Later, Emperor Gao regretted not listening to him and took him out in person. When he talked about this, he was mocking His Majesty for not obeying. His persuasion will sooner or later fail like Emperor Gao!"

Liu Chang suddenly realized, and then looked at Liu Jing angrily, "I kindly came to release you, but you actually came to mock me?!"

"What's the point?!"

At this moment, Liu Jing looked at Yuan An in surprise and asked, "Are you Yuan Kuai's younger brother?"

Yuan Ang did not reply, and his expression became dull again.

For Liu Jing, who is not good enough, Liu Chang also has his own way, "Don't let him out! Let the people from the internal history come directly to the prison to tell him everything, give him paper and pen, and let him be in the prison. Work inside! Let him out when he is willing to plead guilty!"

Liu Chang took Yuan An out of Tingwei's prison, and on the road, Liu Chang looked back at his young Zhongshuling from time to time.

This guy is good, I haven't found it before.

Don't look at the fact that he always contradicts himself on weekdays, but when the villain taunts him and he fails to react for a while, the role of this fellow is reflected, and he previously proposed to let Sima Xi come to obtain those books, which can be seen , he is not that kind of Confucianism.

"Do you know Luan Bu? He belongs to the same school as you!"

"I have seen Duke Luan in Tang, but I didn't dare to climb high."

"Hahaha, yes, people of your school can do it. Luan Bu also liked to contradict me at the beginning, for the sake of your ability. If you contradict me in the future, I will not hit you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

ps: When the emperor cleared Liang, he was no different from a distant place, except for slander, corporal punishment, rewarding elders, sympathy for loneliness, and nurturing the masses. - "Historical Records"

Jiancheng Shenhou Lu, who once served as the imperial attendant, was not good at speaking. - "Historical Records"
