Chapter 165 Murder and Punishment

This time, Liu Xie did not discuss the tone, but issued an edict directly.

If you are allowed to command troops and fight, you can't do it, so it's okay to let you go on a mission.

If you can't afford such a simple task, then you should be exempted from it and don't waste the imperial court's food.

For the court, this is also a trick that has more advantages than disadvantages.

The court appointed Sun Ce as the prefect of Kuaiji, and took the initiative to give Sun Ce a title.

If Sun Ce refuses, although the possibility of refusing is extremely low, it is obvious that he is an enemy of the court and the court will not suffer much loss.

Anyway, Kuaiji is far away in Jiangdong, so the court cannot control it.

If you accept it, it means you have broken up with Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu has to guard against being unable to move westward.

As for Zhou Yu, the court did not care about past grudges. Isn’t it enough to conquer Zhou Yu into the court to be an official?

Of course, Zhou Yu could refuse to be recruited and famous scholars often did this, but according to convention, Zhou Yu could refuse to be recruited, but could not refuse the emperor's grace of knowing and gaining something in the future.

With such a relationship, can Sun Ce still believe Zhou Yu without reservation?

No matter what the final result is, Liu Xie has no losses anyway.

Zhang Xi was powerless to refute and had to discuss it.

Liu Xie immediately ordered someone to draft an edict, record the full text just mentioned, and sign the relevant content by Zhou Zhong. If Zhou Zhong makes any unjust actions in the future, these records will be evidence.

In desperation, Zhou Zhong signed the letter and threw down his pen, leaving the tent on the grounds of being unwell.

Liu Xie watched Zhou Zhong leave and sighed.

"You guys, there is a way to govern a country, but first of all, there must be a country. If a country is destroyed, what way is there? With virtue, punishment, and power, you can discuss it slowly. It is urgent to save the danger and survival, and you cannot tolerate looking forward.

I hope you all will temporarily stop the views of the door, the struggle for the spirit, the same heart and virtue, and build peace again. Then return to the arsenal of the Armorial House, put the horses on the south mountain, open the stone canal pavilion, and explore the governance of the White Tiger calmly. Wouldn't it be better than this time?"

Yang Xiu, who was writing quickly, felt a little moved in his heart. He remembered the last time Jun Qian asked right, and couldn't help but look at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu still looked like he was sitting in meditation, with a expressionless face.

Situ Zhao Wen sighed and stood up to salute. "Your Majesty said so much, I will obey it."

Zhang Xi's mood was even more complicated.

After Zhou Zhong left the seat in anger, the emperor confessed his love to the ministers in this way, which not only showed his expectations, but also showed his demeanor.

The young emperor did not avoid academic disputes, but just focused on solving the immediate problems first. What's wrong with it?

In contrast, when you are petty about etiquette and law, the ancestral system seems out of place, and even seem to be deliberately making trouble.

There are many such people, and Zhou Zhong unexpectedly became a typical example and was recorded in history.

No matter what he is trying to do, whether he will still regard himself as a Han official in the future, this stain will not be washed away.

This is killing people and heartbroken.

This is not something the emperor has done at once, but something that he has done on purpose.

After all, the origin of the Zhou clan in Lujiang and the Yuan clan in Runan is not a secret. The emperor didn’t know it before, but now he must know it too.

Although he was reluctant, Zhang Xi could only follow Situ Zhao Wen to express his opinion, support the emperor's decision, temporarily put aside the academic disputes, and solve the problem with a pragmatic attitude.

Situ and Sikong made their statements, and other ministers also made their statements.

The meeting was back on track, and Liu Xie announced that he would continue. Before others made a speech, he announced another rule.

The minutes of the meeting are for reference only. No sinners are allowed to express their opinions and speak freely without psychological burden. If you feel that these words are not suitable for history, you can declare them when signing them after the meeting and write history in the future.

, you can hide your name.

After hearing this, the ministers felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

When you think of saying the wrong thing, you may be infamous for thousands of years. Who dares to speak?

Liu Xie looked at Song Guo. "You have been the governor of Bingzhou before, so why don't you tell me the situation in Bingzhou?"

Zhou Zhong was driven away, and the happiest thing was Song Guo. Hearing that the emperor ordered the general, Song Guo stood up, strode to the map, and bowed to Liu Xie.

"I am taking the liberty and dare to explain the situation in Bingzhou for Your Majesty."

Liu Xie bowed slightly. "It's a blessing to Song Qing."

Song Guo turned around and exchanged glances with Shi Sun Rui and Wei Jie, and smiled knowingly.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, after driving away Zhou Zhong, one of the representatives of the Minister of Guandong, he appointed Song Guo, who was a native of Guanzhong, to explain the situation. This is an attitude in itself.

An opportunity for Guansai people, especially Guanzhong people, has come.

Bingzhou is similar to Youzhou and Liangzhou, and is connected to Qiang and Hu, and is a border with the name and reality.

But Bingzhou has its own unique features.

In terms of history, Bingzhou was a place where dragons rose in three generations, far longer than Youzhou and Liangzhou.

In terms of geography, Youzhou and Jizhou are bordered by Jizhou and are far away from the Central Plains. Liangzhou and Guanzhong are bordered by Guanzhong and can break into Guanzhong, but are quite far away from Luoyang. Only Bingzhou is narrow in the east and west and long in the north and south, and along the Fenshui River Valley, it can

Drive straight into Pujin. Or take the road to Shangdang, cross the Tianjing Pass, and drink Ma Mengjin.

Because they were often harassed by the Hu people, the people of Bingzhou were fierce, and the Bingzhou cavalry and Liangzhou cavalry were called elite.

From the perspective of the security of the Central Plains, the threat of Bingzhou is definitely not comparable to Youzhou and Liangzhou.

It is precisely because of this that the imperial court's suppression of Bingzhou has been consistent.

The last time that Bingzhou had a three-public rank was Wang Jian of the Qin Dynasty.

As the Huns moved inward, the situation in Bingzhou became worse.

The Huns enjoyed the favors of the court, but did not have to bear taxes. The population increased rapidly, which put great pressure on the locals in Bingzhou. In order to survive, many people in Bingzhou began to trade with the Huns, and even took the initiative to avoid rent and taxes.

Becoming a Hun further promoted the expansion of the power of the Huns.

This is also the reason why more and more Xiongnu people from Bingzhou came.

When Bingzhou had the largest population, there were about 110,000 households, including Taiyuan and Shangdang counties.

When the Huns moved to Senei at most, there were only more than 5,000 households, and now there are more than 40,000 households. If they are not controlled, the population of the Huns will exceed that of the Han people, and Bingzhou will really become a land of the Hu people.

In fact, in Taiyuan, the population of the Xiongnu in counties outside Shangdang was equivalent to that of the Han people, or even more than that of the Han people. The counties remained in name only, and even if there were prefects or county magistrates, it would be difficult for the government to leave the prefecture and county towns.

It may be an accident that Yu Fuluo's tribe was stranded in Hedong, but according to this trend, the Huns will not officially enter Hedong.

How to deal with the Huns is no longer just a question of whether they can defend Bingzhou, but a question of whether they can defend the land of China's clothing and dragons.

After Song Guo finished speaking, the tent fell into a dead silence.

For these officials, there are many people who know Bingzhou's Huns, but there are only limited people who really know how many Huns there are in Bingzhou. Most people only have one feeling and don't know how serious the situation is.

After listening to Song Guo's explanation, I realized that Bingzhou had mostly become a pasture for the Huns. It not only failed to protect the Central Plains, but instead became a threat to the Central Plains.

The people of Xiliang have killed the Central Plains and blood all over the ground. Once the Huns, who were more barbaric than the people of Xiliang, entered the Central Plains, what a miserable situation would it be?

Countless people's backs were cold and their hands and feet were numb.
