"How to kill and how many to kill are not issues to consider now. We need to wait until we go there and conduct on-site investigations to determine, but the number of people will not be small." Man Chong shook his head and said.
After all, the results of the current investigation are already quite disgusting.
"Didn't Chen Zichuan notice it when he passed by Yuzhou the year before last?" Yuan Shu asked in confusion. Since the trouble is like this now, then nothing should have happened the year before last. But since it happened, it shouldn't have happened.
It should appear that Chen Xi didn't even know about this kind of thing.
"No, because when I passed through Yuzhou, I only went to Runan, and Runan is the foundation of your Yuan family, even if the main force left..." Man Chong shook his head and said.
"The more important point is that this kind of serial behavior is difficult to detect before it breaks out. If we had not made a preconceived judgment and conducted a detailed investigation, it is difficult to say whether we would have noticed the current situation.
Situation." Liu Ye appeared from the other side and said with some explanation.
"Tsk! When did the Han Dynasty's internal control ability drop to this low level?" Liu Zhang said disdainfully.
Why is it so low? How should I put it? Because my position and issues of concern have not been in this aspect before. Economic development and social progress can cover up most problems, but when economic development
When the speed stagnates, problems that were originally covered up will be exposed one by one. This is an unavoidable situation.
It is obvious that due to the current management system, the previously rapidly developing economy has begun to stagnate due to the existence of a ceiling, even if Chen Xi knows how to further raise the ceiling, increase the economic aggregate, and maintain social stability.
But for a short time, these plans remained on paper. Even if Chen Xi ran fast enough and avoided many pitfalls, he would still need to make up lessons. Some things cannot be avoided by relying on experience. Just like now,
Chen Xi got the information given by Guo Jia and actually understood what happened. The more detailed the information, the better Chen Xi understood it.
This is just a problem that was covered up by rapid development in the past, but has now exploded.
Although in essence, it is actually a power vacuum and inadequate bureaucratic management, the reason why these forces can develop is not because rapid development has made everyone's attention stay on the economic level and relaxed supervision in other aspects.
.
A true portrayal of the historical spiral. All ancient history is modern history. The only lesson humans can learn from history is not to absorb any lessons.
In short, this mess is very troublesome, but fortunately, this era is an imperial system, and Liu Bei has the foundation to control the middle and lower classes, and Chen Xi has the foundation to restrain the country's finances, so even if this level of trouble occurs, it will not
We need to look forward and backward like later generations to gradually eliminate the impact, and now, no matter how bad it is, it is just a do-over.
That's right, compared to the soft-hearted Chen Xi who Li You and others were worried about, when he saw this, Chen Xi was actually as hard-hearted as iron. If it was a small-scale connection, forming a party for personal gain, Chen Xi would at best attack, but at such a scale, the target has actually been
It's very clear.
After all, even if the large-scale connection of middle-level bureaucrats is to cover up the situation in the beginning, in the process of the connection, the ever-expanding bureaucracy and the ever-expanding power monster will inevitably drive these people to attack the higher levels.
This is an inevitable push, just like the so-called Conglong. After reaching that step, you actually feel somewhat involuntarily. You can go forward, but it is basically impossible to go backward. Stop and stop. What you did before,
It's not in vain.
Isn’t that what the so-called gamblers are?
So when Chen Xi saw the investigation report forwarded by Guo Jia, he was actually ready to kill people, because this matter was unavoidable, and at such a scale, even if those people were exposed, they would definitely want to break up with Chang'an.
wrist.
It is not common for local governments to antagonize the central government, but it is not uncommon either.
"Zichuan." Liu Bei came to see Chen Xi with a jug of wine. He didn't bring anyone else with him. In other words, Liu Bei's guards were everywhere.
"Ah, Mr. Xuande." Chen Xi stood up and greeted, obviously not very interested.
"Do you already know the matter?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi and asked.
"I know, and I understand it more completely than Fengxiao." Chen Xi sighed.
"How is it possible? Fengxiao holds the internal intelligence organization of the Han Dynasty in his hands. How is it possible that you know more about it than he does?" Liu Bei said with a smile, but Chen Xi did not laugh, but just looked at Liu Bei like this, and then Liu Bei couldn't stop laughing.
He went down and said, "You're not kidding."
"After knowing the matter itself, I knew that there would be greater turmoil later." Chen Xi said calmly, "Actually, Mr. Xuande, you should know best that I don't really care about killing people, but there is a saying,
We should avoid past mistakes and avoid future ones, treat illnesses and save people. Killing them cannot solve the problem, and their heads are not leeks. They can still grow after being cut off, but it is just a waste."
"Yes." Liu Bei nodded. He and Chen Xi have known each other for so many years, and he actually knows Chen Xi's nature very well. Chen Xi seems to have a gentle temperament, but he actually has a very strong side inside. If he doesn't kill indiscriminately, it doesn't mean he won't kill. In fact,
Chen Xi just wanted to kill someone who deserved to die.
If you really want to take action, the battle between Chen Xi and Li You against Han Xin has already shown the problem. Chen Xi can treat the people as a long series of numbers, or more realistically, in Chen Xi's eyes, these are actually resources.
, whether it is common people or bureaucrats.
Therefore, using certain methods to kill these people is actually a waste of resources, so Chen Xi only kills them to see if it is worth it.
"What happened this time, how should I put it, is probably my negligence." Chen Xi picked up the jug that Liu Bei put on the table and poured a glass of wine for both of them. "I actually understand and know a lot of things.
, I also considered it when I was doing it, but I always felt that we should save money first, invest resources in other aspects, and make a comprehensive evaluation..."
This is Chen Xi’s biggest shortcoming. His comprehensive assessment is beneficial to the country, but it is not beneficial to everyone. How to say this is beneficial and harmful? If it is completely unavoidable, then there is nothing to say. The problem is that Chen Xi actually
It can be avoided.
"So you think you are at fault?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi and asked.
Chen Xi thought for a while and nodded after being silent for a while, "Anyway, I made a mistake when I chose to save one province first and invest resources in another."
"Really?" Liu Bei's expression remained unchanged, "When did you actually make a mistake?"
Chen Xi was silent and just picked up the wine glass. He didn't know how to answer Liu Bei's pointed question.
"Do you still remember what you said back then?" Liu Bei held Chen Xi down and understood Chen Xi's expression very well. The other party's current mentality was a little disappointed, but there was nothing wrong with that.
"There are so many things I said, I can't remember some of them, and there are so many things that happened in response to the situation, I don't even know what to say." Chen Xi didn't have a close connection with Liu Bei, and didn't know what Liu Bei wanted to say.
"You guy, I don't even know what to say about you!" Liu Bei didn't know how to describe Chen Xi. Sometimes this guy really leaves people speechless.
"We agreed at the beginning that everything that goes wrong in this world is all because of me, Liu Bei!" Liu Bei said very freely and freely, "The reason why I, Liu Bei, can sit here is very simple, because I have the consciousness to bear the sins of this world.
, when Jia Wenhe returned to Mount Tai, he asked me why the world is like this, and you smiled and said yes, the world is like this all because of me, Liu Bei."
At that time, Liu Bei did not realize what the question and answer between Jia Xu and Chen Xi meant, but with the expansion of territory, the expansion of power, and the defeat of Yuan Shao, Liu Bei finally understood what it meant after he took the position of Taiwei.
sentence.
No matter whether the world is good or bad, whether the bureaucrats are right or wrong, he, Liu Bei, should bear the responsibility. If Wan Fang is not guilty, the fault lies with me, he will not have the courage to shoulder the Central Plains and bear it with all his strength. And now
Liu Bei has this courage.
For Liu Bei, it was not just that Yuzhou and Jizhou were evacuated by top aristocratic families such as the Yuan family, which resulted in a power vacuum, but they were also exposed to expert fraud and bureaucratic cover-ups, leading to large-scale connections that would have taken longer to occur.
Is it taking shape now?
Is this a problem? Yes, this is a problem, but it is not unsolvable. As for guilt and other things, I, Liu Bei, am not dead yet, so I don’t need you, Chen Zichuan, to take care of it.
"Mr.
.”
"Your problem is that you are too smart." Liu Bei said with emotion. "You know everything. For you, most things seem to have no secrets. You can deduce it as long as you read the beginning.
The middle and the end, that’s a good thing and a bad thing.”
"Without this ability, it will be difficult for me to run the entire country. What I want to hand over to Kong Ming is a system that Kong Ming can get and operate successfully. Compared with the current construction process, when the time comes for a complete cycle, Kong Ming will
If you understand and summarize, you will naturally understand everything." Chen Xi's expression looked very serious at this moment.
"It's up to you, it's up to you. I don't understand it anyway, you just have to do it yourself." Liu Bei said very grandly. In fact, he was also very angry and wanted to kill him, but he heard the announcement before Li You was sent to prison.
, he was more worried about Chen Xi, so he went to see Chen Xi first.
Nothing else matters. Even if the bureaucracy in Yuzhou and Jizhou is ruined, they will not go back to twenty years ago, so they can afford it.
