Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 745
"Han Gong! Really enviable!"

When Han Ying finished today's class at Taixue and was about to get on the bus, all the sacrificial wine drinkers around came to congratulate her.

Since Han Ying was about to go to Zhao to serve as an official, everyone here has been more polite to him.

But at this moment, seeing the carriage that came to welcome Han Ying to the palace, everyone came to congratulate again. His Majesty is going to take Han Ying to the Hall of Houde, and I would like to ask you something about it.

What an honor this is, why can't they get such an honor?
It's really disgusting.

Seeing their envious expressions, Han Ying felt bitter in his heart.

Is this a good thing? ?

Ever since Duke Fuqiu died of old age and wrote a book with peace of mind, he has become a frequent visitor in Houde Hall. His Majesty often seeks him out to ask for advice.

Thinking of the questions His Majesty asked, Han Ying felt his scalp go numb.

How did Lord Fuqiu be able to accept the words of His Majesty?

He admits that he has been studying for many years, but the allusions that His Majesty said, he can't even guess what they mean, which is really tormenting.

He would rather go to Zhao country earlier, presumably the situation will be much better when he gets there, right?
The longer he stayed with the emperor, the more he worshiped Duke Fuqiu.

This guy is really talented.

But he still didn't dare to refuse. Ever since he was attacked head-on by Liu An, his academic views have undergone a great change. Han Ying used to have a very narrow idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor. Execution, the Confucian monarch's idea that the emperor must die, which we are familiar with in later generations, was first created by this dear friend. Confucianism in this period was very dynamic, and they were very good at absorbing the achievements and ideas of many schools. The idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor It was they who took it away from the Legalists, and later this idea was absorbed by Gongyang, and it became one of the mainstream ideas of Confucianism.

However, Liu An slightly changed his idea, and "Zhang Buyi Thought" became the idea of ​​patriotism.

According to Han Ying's theory, Zhang Buyi is simply a saint of their school.

Liu An felt that this was too superficial, and turned it into patriotism. At present, when the concept of nation and great unity is relatively weak, this kind of patriotism is obviously very suitable for the needs of rulers. Temples need to strengthen the governance of various places, and need to change the separation of countries. To establish a Han community, what can promote the great unification of the Han better than patriotism?In the era when the prefecture was in charge, such a proposition was needed even more. Through such an advanced proposition, Han Ying immediately became Liu Chang's guest.

Liu Chang liked his idea very much, and asked him to continuously improve his idea and support it intentionally.

Now his School of Loyalty to the Emperor is the second largest Confucian school after the Xun School.

It is said that the Legalists were very angry. Several members of the Legalists were studying his theories and wanted to bring this academic thinking back to the Legalists to which he originally belonged.

When Han Ying walked into Houde Hall, he happened to see Liu Chang holding a book, thinking hard.

Liu Chang was very happy when he found that his great Confucian came in, and hastily stretched out his hand to let Han Ying sit beside him.

"Master Han, you came just in time! I have a question to ask!"

"Look at this book, the last sentence is still quiet and inaction, everything is slow, and the gentleman is quiet, but the next sentence becomes flowing water that does not rot, household hinges that do not moth, and movement. Governing the country requires good movement. ? Isn’t this inconsistent?”

Han Ying's expression became a little excited.

Your Majesty actually started to seriously ask questions about learning? ?

Although it is a bit deceitful to ask a Confucian scholar about Huang Lao's thoughts, it is a serious academic question, no longer about whether Confucius's beard looks good, what kind of enmity Zhuangzi's wife has with him, etc., which make people's blood pressure go crazy!
Han Ying immediately straightened up, and seriously explained to Liu Chang: "Your Majesty, what is said about the stillness and movement is the natural truth, and it is about adjusting the policy in time according to the operation of the law of heaven, just like a bear Huh, governing the country with tranquility in winter and dynamics in summer is to find the difference between winter and summer. Huang Lao’s greatest advantage is that it varies with time, and there is no old system that must be followed. This is the basis of their development, but it will also become their weakness, for if they stay long in the winter they will not perceive the coming of summer"

Han Ying earnestly made an academic exposition, describing the many differences between Huang Lao and Confucianism, such as advantages and disadvantages, without adding too many private goods.

Liu Chang also listened very seriously and took note of his words.

"What you said is very reasonable. It turns out that governing the country is the same as being a bear!"

"That's right."

"I asked about Zhao Guo, and there were three people who gave three different solutions."

"Prince An believes that Zhao's problems are due to the local big clans, who need to relocate more of their big clans, promote poor people, disrupt their subordinates, and use more talents from other counties, so that the local people can't form a group to confuse the king. The censor believes that the local problems are due to past claims and ideological problems, and they need to send someone to change their minds. The left minister believes that Zhao Guo is a gang of traitors. .”

Liu Chang said with a smile: "What do you think of what they said?"

Han Ying said seriously: "Since Your Majesty has called the minister here, it is natural that he recognizes the Yushi's words."

"Hahaha, those of you who treat classics, you can guess these things with certainty."

"Prince An's idea is not the fundamental way to govern. Confucius once said: Doing things is only on the surface, and it will not be effective! The traditional concepts of Zhao State still exist, and they will not disappear just because the big clan is relocated."

Han Ying was silent for a moment, why didn't he know that Confucius had said such a thing?
"Your Majesty is right."

"And Zhang Buyi's ideas are too radical, and the casualties are too large. This is a way to increase conflicts, not a means to resolve them. Lao Tzu once said: You can't kill too many people."

"I understand what His Majesty means. I will go to Zhao this time, and I will definitely do my best."

Liu Chang squinted his eyes and asked, "Then how are you going to do it with all your strength?"

Han Ying took a deep breath and talked about his own thoughts, "Your Majesty, I plan to recruit more local scholars as disciples and teach them the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor. In addition, I will bring my disciples and let them go Give lectures to many nobles, set up several places in Zhao State, and give lectures in public."

Listening to Han Ying's thoughts, Liu Chang just shook his head.

Han Ying was taken aback, thought for a long time, and then said, "That minister will write articles and publish them in Zhao Guo's newspapers every day, so that local people can read them every day."

Liu Chang still shook his head.

"Chenchen told the classics to the officials in the temple??"

Han Ying hesitated, but Liu Chang said, "The methods you mentioned are not what I want to hear."

"Your Majesty, please tell me, what should I do?"

"You have to join the Zhao people!!"

"what??"

Han Ying was taken aback, and looked at the emperor in horror, "What's your majesty's intention?"

"After you go to Zhao State, don't talk about learning, and don't open any schools. You just go to those local celebrities, block their doors and call them old dogs, and let your disciples spit in front of his doors. Cough coughing in their hats, just to provoke them, and then start a debate with them!!"

"When dealing with the Zhao people, you can't be soft. They have never accepted this kind of trick. You have to convince them. If you are not convinced, you will be convinced!!"

"I sent you to Zhao State to reason with them and make them recognize your proposition. Don't you know how to reason?"

Han Ying was dumbfounded. Is this a suggestion from Dr. Yushi?Let yourself go to Zhao Guoda to kill the Quartet? ?
Han Ying was a little embarrassed, "Your Majesty, I often debate in Taixue, but will Zhao Guo. This will cause any trouble?"

"Didn't you just say it? The difference between winter and summer? In the past, Zhao Guo was in winter, and everything had to be developed on the premise of making the people eat well and wear warm clothes. Now, they have arrived in summer, and everything is good. Even those nobles are full of food and have nothing to do, you have to move."

"But the minister"

Seeing Han Ying who was still hesitant, Liu Chang asked in surprise, "Are you afraid that you will not be the opponent of those Zhao people?"

"That's right, those Zhao people are all from everyone, and many of them have learned from Mao Gong and the others, and there are also many people from the Xun faction. Ordinary people are not their opponents. It is normal for you to be afraid. Then you Can you recommend me someone who is not afraid?"

Han Ying couldn't sit still immediately, afraid? ? ?
I founded a school when I was less than 30 years old. I taught in Yanzhao, debated with everyone, and never lost. Do you think I am afraid? ?

"Your Majesty!! I'm not afraid, I'm just worried about causing chaos, so I dare not agree. If Your Majesty wants me to go, how can I back down?! I'm going to Zhao Guo now."

Looking at the red-faced Han Ying who was irritated in front of him, Liu Chang hurriedly pulled him back with a smile.

"Don't be angry, I misunderstood you."

"After you arrive in Zhao State, don't worry about anything, just go to fight with those people, make them speechless, let them be ashamed and convinced. Let Zhao State accept you in the fastest time claim! That's what you're going to do!"

"I will let an old Confucian follow you to Zhao Guo. If they want to bully the few with more, you can ask him to help."

"Oh? I don't know who it is?"

"It's an old Confucian from the Qi State, that guy is pretty good at fighting, let him see you later!"

After Han Ying left, Lu Lu stood beside Liu Chang, and asked with some concern: "Your Majesty, is this what the Yushi doctor ordered? Let this servant scold people under the imperial edict?"

"Of course not. How could such a wise and powerful decision be something that my elder brother would have thought of?"

"Knew it"

Lu Lu was not surprised. He sighed and asked again: "Your Majesty, I'm just a little worried. Zhao Guo's situation is unique. You just arrested a group of people not long ago, and now you have sent Han Ying over there." If the country of Zhao really gets into a mess after a scolding war, it will be hard to deal with it."

"Don't worry, I have already ordered Zhao Guo not to be in chaos. With Tang, Dai, and Yan watching, why does Zhao Guo dare to mess up?"

"Don't pay attention to Zhao Guo's affairs, what happened to the things I ordered you?"

Lu Lu frowned, "There is still a big problem. Last year alone, more than 1 people were arrested for privately minting coins, and countless beheaded. Some people took the risk. The five baht coins established by the queen mother were different, and they were all five baht coins. However, the coins minted were very different. The perforation is big, the meat is thin, and there are also thick meat, and all of them have the phenomenon of cutting corners and not being enough to weigh five baht."

What Liu Chang asked Lu Lu to be responsible for was the issue of privately coining money.

The currency problem has troubled the big man for a long, long time. In fact, it is all the fault of Naqu Niwenhou! !
When Emperor Gao unified the Han Dynasty, he originally wanted to introduce a new currency, but because of the opinions of Chen Ping and others, he continued to adopt the Qin system of half-two coins, which led to extremely chaotic folk currency systems. It can make money, and it almost collapsed the currency system of the Han Dynasty. Later, local governments and merchants competed for profits, and they all desperately minted money, which caused hyperinflation, the purchasing power of coins dropped sharply, and prices soared.

The people could not survive, so they gave up production one after another, went into exile, and made a living by selling their labor power; or they took risks and joined the ranks of private casting, hoping to earn huge profits.

The first person to notice this situation was Lu Hou, who minted five baht coins, banned the original half tael coins, and later banned private coinage.

Although many people regard the five baht coin as one of the credits of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was not him who first minted the five baht coin, but Empress Lu.

After Liu Chang came to power, Liu Chang took back the coinage rights of the locality and the kingdom. Only temples could mint coins, and copper five baht coins and silver five baht coins were minted. Later, bank vouchers appeared, and these vouchers were used by people called cash.

However, those coins in the past have not been withdrawn. Therefore, the coexistence of five baht coins issued by Empress Lu, Emperor Xiaoren, and Liu Changshi has brought many hidden dangers to today's currency system, and there are no casting units in temples today. What Liu Chang thinks is so normal. After all, in Dahan, everything is just in its infancy. It is something that did not exist in the past. Everyone is exploring, and they don't know right or wrong.

"Lu, the currency system is chaotic, and the business of the big man cannot be further improved. I plan to use the currency of the big man to control the poison, and the current currency will definitely not work."

"It is still necessary to set up a more formal department to be responsible for these things. Today's temples are too contemptuous of currency!"

"To abolish those coins in the past, use new coins to recover them, and at the same time prohibit the circulation of past coins, we should issue new five baht coins to complete the complete stabilization of the currency system. Control is very important!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter well."

After finishing a whole day's work, Liu Chang has just exercised his muscles and bones. Now that the strength of the officials has increased, he no longer needs to personally do many things, but there are still many things that need to be decided by him. Wait for yourself After the supervisor finished these things, he went to the Hexi Kingdom. Zhou Bo had fought against the Qiangs there for more than a year, and he was probably about to win. It just so happened that he went to seize the fruits of his victory. When the time came, he would tell Zhou Bohua I haven't been killed for several years, and I won the battle by myself.
Liu Chang was thinking about those unspeakable things in his heart, so he couldn't help but walked to the Jiaofang Hall.

Cao Shu was alone in the Jiaofang Hall, and was seriously making clothes at the moment.

Liu Chang sat beside her and looked around.

"What about you?"

"In Taiwei's Mansion."

"How about sir?"

"I went to my mother's house early in the morning."

"Eh?"

"I went to Luan Gong's house to meet the teacher."

Liu Chang scratched his head, "You guys are having a very lively time. I'm so busy in Houde Hall, but you guys are playing around. Even Liang isn't here?? That Zhuzi went to play??"

"He went out with Prince Chu, saying that he wanted to take him to play."

Liu Chang pouted, "Why didn't anyone take me to play?"

"Your Majesty is the king, and there are many things to do, how can you think about having fun?"

Cao Shu embroidered her clothes and replied without raising her head.

"Sooner or later, I will leave this position to An, and take you to ride a horse outside the Great Wall!"

Liu Chang cursed.

Speaking of Liu An, Cao Shu paused, "By the way, I'm about to tell you something and I don't know if it's true or not. I heard it from Qing."

"It is said that An asked Tiying to write medical books, and was going to take Tiying to meet the female doctors in the clinic."

"Oh, so what?"

"Qing said that An intended for Ti Ying to be the leader of the physician family."

"Just do it, isn't that what her family does? If she is really knowledgeable, what if she becomes the leader?"

Cao Shu didn't say anything more, but complained: "I always feel that this kid, An, is too hasty in handling things, doing things arbitrarily and whimsically."

But Liu Chang interrupted Cao Shu's words, "I don't think it's a problem. The situation in the world is changeable, just like this winter and summer. I read Huang Lao's book today, and I feel a lot. Do you know Xiong Zhen? "

"Winter is quiet, summer is moving."

"This is in line with the nature of the Dao. Doing things cannot be static. You must know how to change according to different factors. This is Huang Lao's advantage, but it is also Huang Lao's shortcoming."

Liu Chang recalled seriously, and told the Queen about Han Ying's many explanations.

The queen understood a little bit, she nodded, and asked: "You mean, the times are different from the past, what An did may not be in line with the past, but it is in line with the future? Just like that bear, Now is the time to move?"

Liu Chang shook his head, then took Cao Shu's hand.

"I mean, it's fall."

"It's not summer, it's not winter, so the two of us should be still and move, and be still and move."

Cao Shu blushed and scolded: "Your Majesty's Huang Laoshu is simply a waste of time! Those knowledge are not used to govern the country, but are they used for this kind of thing?! Besides, how can there be a king who prostitutes himself in the daytime?? "

"I'm a barbarian! I'm not polite!!"

ps: Pushing the book, the old author Ye Duzui has opened a new book "Rebirth 1996 Great Era". I really like the book of this old driver friend, everyone can go and read~~
