"Your Majesty, you're so happy!" Situ Liang said with a smile on his face, and walked in from outside with a smile on his face.
Zhao Xun put down the report in his hand and smiled and said, "Has Xuzhou been taken down by us?"
Situ Liang smiled and said, "It turns out that the king already knew that it was this matter. The Chu army surrendered and no longer existed. It was conquered by our army and was already under the jurisdiction of our Great Zhao. This is the distance between our Zhao Kingdom and our country swept the world, and
One step further."[
Zhao Xun was silent for a little while and sighed, "Yes, I, Zhao, won the land of Xuzhou. After today, we have one more state in the world. At the same time, there is one less prince in the world.
.”
Situ Liang said in a deep voice: "The big waves wash away the sand, and some people rise and fall. The demise of the princes is also the trend of the surging trend and can be avoided."
Zhao Xun smiled faintly and said, "Okay, don't sigh anymore. I have just received the good news from Li Huaiyuan and the reward from the Hawkeye Division. Although the Chu army in Xuzhou has been taken down by us,
It does not mean that everything will be fine in Xuzhou."
"The Chu army was gone, but the scattered Chu soldiers, some of the Li clan members who were afraid of being involved in their own, were active in various places, waiting for opportunities to move. In addition, some were also due to the chaos of the war.
'The rising gangsters and thieves are also active in various parts of Xuzhou."
Situ Liang said slowly: "We need to worry about the defeated army and the fugitives of the Li clan. The Li clan father and son are dead, and many of the other Li clans have surrendered to us. None of the remaining ones have been left.
Qualifications represent the Chu army. Even if these people are active in various places, they are not qualified to call on the people of Xuzhou. Not to mention that the king is very famous and is much better than the Li Chi and his son in Xuzhou. The new policy of Xuzhou is implemented, and the king is the king.
The exemption of taxes for three years made the people of Xuzhou regard the king as the sage. As for the Li family, they had long been thrown out of the sky by the people of Xuzhou."
"And those bandits and thieves need to spend some time and means to clear them out. After all, they have an unstable impact on local rule and people's livelihood. But no matter what, do these people have the right to shake the king's rule in Xuzhou?
.However, Xuzhou does need some effort to properly manage it.”
Zhao Xun naturally understood the situation in Xuzhou and knew that the land of Xuzhou had already been taken into account. Otherwise, he would not have smiled and talked to Situ Liang about his disadvantages.
"I have given the order to the Secretary of the State, ordering them to focus their recent attention on the replies and development of Xuzhou, and to respond to the people's livelihood in Xuzhou in the shortest possible time."
"The Xuzhou incident has been done, and the southern princes did not act rashly. Our plan to station in Luoyang and shock the southern princes was perfectly completed." Zhao Xun said indifferently, "In the past year, our Zhao State has successively confronted Dong Yongzhou.
The attack with Xuzhou, defeated the Luo army and annexed the Chu army, which also consumed a lot. Situ Liang, I appointed you as the governor of the former army, responsible for the defense line of the East Yongzhou to defend the southern princes. Wait for our generals Xuzhou and the East
After the results of Yongzhou are completely absorbed, we will launch a southern attack."
"Don't worry, I will settle the southern border for the king. Is the king going to return to Youzhou City?" Situ Liang asked in surprise. Zhao Xun wanted to return to Youzhou City, but it was not planned in advance.
.
Zhao Xun said indifferently: "The war has been completed, and it's time to return to the army. In addition, Emperor Yan did not attract our Zhao officials in Youzhou City, but instead attracted scholars from all over the country. These people... Humph
…”Although he didn’t say anything, Zhao Xun’s words showed a murderous aura.
Situ Liang felt nervous. Emperor Yan was not executed by Zhao Xun, but brought him back to Youzhou City. Moreover, his freedom was not strictly restricted. Of course, this was also Zhao Xun in order to clear up internal hidden dangers. Situ Liang knew very well about this.
.According to what Zhao Xun said, some people are afraid that they will suffer. If they are involved in the fallen emperor of the previous dynasty, how can there be any good results?
Perhaps it was because Zhao State had replaced Da Yan as a fact, or perhaps it was because Zhao State officials understood the source of their interests, and no one in Zhao State had any connection with Emperor Yan. At least, the Zhao State central government in Youzhou City
Neither the officials nor the local governor had any connection with Emperor Yan. However, some scholars who moved to Youzhou City because of the wars in various places or because Zhao became more and more powerful, some of them had the same Emperor Yan.
After contact, some small organizations have even formed.
No matter whether these people are intentional or intentional, whether these people are proactive or tempted or instructed, Zhao Xun has no intention of letting them go. When dealing with these people, Zhao Xun can only use blood to warn them.
.
After Zhao Xun handed over all the affairs of Dong Yongzhou to Situ Liang, he brought his army back to the army and returned to Youzhou City.
Because the Zhao army became stronger and stronger, the territory of Zhao State became wider and more stable, and more people gathered in the capital of Zhao State Youzhou City. Also because of Zhao State's policies, the business around Youzhou City
It was also extremely prosperous. In the past few months, because of the great victory of the war in Dongyongzhou and the great victory of the war in Xuzhou, the entire Youzhou City and even the entire Zhao State were filled with laughter and joy. The stronger the Zhao State, the more the people were, naturally
I feel that my current happy and stable life can last longer.
Because the policies within Zhao State are very different from other princes, and even from Dayan. Especially in the government, there is a system in which scholars used to become officials and can become officials in various professions. Moreover, I want to
Let one side and master real power, you must have corresponding professional knowledge. Not to mention the distant ones, even officials of the Ministry of Revenue must move the various calculations of the numbers produced by Zhao Xun, the use of property reports, and the simple study of the past
The officials are very different. It is okay for scholars in Zhao State, but those scholars who come from other princes or from Dong Yongzhou and Xuzhou are somewhat unacceptable. Especially in the south, there are more scholars, among which they have higher reputations.
Most of the scholars and great scholars came from southern states.
Therefore, after these people found that some of the systems of Zhao were simply contrary to common sense, they expressed great dissatisfaction, and even directly surrounded and protested before the government, which made the central ministries of Zhao extremely dissatisfied. But because these people were scholars,
There is no force to fight, and no violation of the law, so the government has not been arrested. The problem of scholars is also a headache for the courts of all dynasties. Without full reasons, how can we easily attack them?
However, for Zhao Xun, he would not see who the other party was. As time goes by, Zhao Xun is no longer the Zhao Xun who was wandering with the land of Youbei. Zhao Xun is the king of Zhao State.
, he is the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops and the master of the northern land. Some places that were not concerned about and difficult to make decisions before, now they do not feel any discomfort at all. [
Before Zhao Xun returned, he was assassinated before he entered Youzhou City. Then, the land of Youzhou began to investigate the assassins. Immediately, the Shadow Department, the Eagle Eye Department, and the Defense Department all went out.
Although there was nothing wrong with the assassination of King Zhao, it also shocked the Zhao State. The Zhao State was not trembling. However, soon after, someone reported to the Censorate secretly, saying that some scholars, merchants and some southern princes were from the south.
The detailed work was united, which was detrimental to King Zhao.
As soon as the list was released, several people in Youzhou, especially in Youzhou City were arrested. In addition to some officials in Zhao State, there were also many scholars and some businessmen. They were all involved in the assassination of King Zhao.
middle.
While Youzhou City began to arrest these major assassinations, Zhao Xun had successfully returned to Youzhou City. Of course, Zhao Xun did not have any damage. The assassination he was doing was just Zhao Xun secretly let someone take action. Return to Youzhou City
Zhao Xun was immediately visited by officials from various departments and asked how to deal with the arrested person. In fact, many people were not related to the assassination case. I am afraid that only those who have something to do with Emperor Yan
Relationships are not satisfied with the current system of Zhao State. Of course, this relationship is not based on real evidence, but is measured from a certain aspect.
"The king, this time, many people were arrested, but most of them were not related to the assassination, especially many of them, who had more or less a slight connection with officials from various departments. Is it..."
When Zhao Xun heard this, Pei Yi said indifferently: "It is related to the assassination, but what about the others? Is there nothing illegal about what they do? The Shadow Department and the Hawkeye Department will definitely not capture them.
For the sake of taking down the person. In addition, as far as I know, these people are more or less illegal. Since this is the case, even if there is no real evidence to involve the assassination case, then deal with the crimes they committed.”
"Any officials who have connections with these guilty merchants will be demoted and retained. They participated in the Chamber of Commerce. This king did not object, but he wanted to act as a protector for the Chamber of Commerce where they were and let them regard the existence of the Da Zhao Law. This is absolutely not allowed.
As for those who seek personal gain for the Chamber of Commerce, they will be dismissed and will never be reborn."
Zhao Xun captured these merchants in order to attack officials from various departments in the city. Although there are no large number of officials who have had too deep connections with merchants, Zhao Xun must be prepared.
Pei Yi felt nervous, and naturally understood Zhao Xun's purpose, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, what about those chambers of commerce?"
"Chamber of Commerce? They don't do business well, but they want to make profits from my official Zhao. They confiscate their property and will never be qualified to do business." Zhao Xun said coldly.
"What about those scholars?" Pei Yi asked in a deep voice.
"What do you think?" Zhao Xun asked the central officials of the three provinces indifferently.
Seeing that everyone else was right, Pei Yi had to say, "King, these scholars are all from other vassals. Although they are not from our country of Zhao, they should also be in contact with the southern vassals. Most of them are dissatisfied with the current situation of other vassals.
, And those who came to our State of Zhao to study and seek official positions. Assassination of the king, such evil things should be related to these scholars."
After a pause, Pei Yi said again: "Scholars are the source of state officials and the pillars of governing the country. Because we have captured many scholars, now, scholars in the city and even in various places have begun to be dissatisfied with this move, and even
We began to protest in front of government offices in various places.”
Zhao Xun glanced at everyone lightly, and understood that Pei Yi was an orthodox Confucian scholar, and it was still difficult to understand the capture of scholars who had no real evidence.
"According to Pei Qing's intention, they are going to be released?" Zhao Xun said calmly, "What do you think of the other Qing families?"
From Zhao Xun's plain tone, Lu Ziliang felt Zhao Xun's dissatisfaction. Lu Ziliang also understood that these scholars were not able to assassinate the King of Zhao under the escort of the ten thousand guards. But Lu Ziliang also knew that these scholars were celebrating Zhao State.
The official selection system was dissatisfied with the official selection system, and even the Zhao State was often vaguely connected with Emperor Yan compared to the Great Yan. This time, Zhao Xun returned, did not directly inform the center, arrest the assassination case, and did not order the Ministry of Justice.
The Censorate directly asked the secret guards of the three officials to take action, which means that King Zhao will carry out some rectification of Youzhou City this time.
The businessmen and officials started with the beginning, and Lu Ziliang understood that King Zhao was really going to move the restless people in Youzhou City this time.
Seeing Zhao Xun ask this, Lu Ziliang naturally understood what his king meant, so he spoke out: "Return to the king, I think that these scholars cannot release them, but should deal with them strictly."
"Oh? Tell me!" Zhao Xun said with a smile.
Seeing King Zhao say this, Lu Ziliang relaxed slightly and said in a deep voice: "These scholars do not understand the policies of our Zhao State, but they are unwilling to do so and express their opposition to our Zhao State system. They bring them to the rule of our Zhao State.
It is very bad influence, and even some businessmen and craftsman officials have many problems with Confucian scholars and orthodox scholars. These scholars do not want to change their views, but they simply blame the government for not being.
Not only is it not the pillar of the governing local government in our country, but it has a great impact on the stability of our country in our country in our country."
"Also, because we have captured some scholars, there are so many problems now. If we ignore them and give in, we still don't know what impact these scholars will have on our government in the future. Could it be that our Zhao State still has a state of affairs?
Want to surrender to some scholars who are not in harmony with us?"[
"Good statement!" Zhao Xunzhen said, "A group of idle people who only know how to study hard also dare to point fingers at the court and dare to protest the government's behavior. If we give in, we still don't know what impact it will bring.
And the policies and systems of our Zhao State are different from other princes and from Da Yan. I want them to know that now, this is Da Zhao, not Da Yan."
"I was dissatisfied with my Da Zhao, and even Lian Cheng small organization refuted the Zhao system. I even used the banner of Da Yan and Emperor Yan. What do they want to do? I sent an order to ask the Ministry of Justice to investigate them strictly and punish them strictly without lending."
"Yang Wangzhen, the Secretariat, ordered all the scholars who gathered to cause trouble before the government to eliminate all the fame and honor in them. My Dayan will never give them eternal eternity from now on. In addition, the imperial edict ordered all the localities to go to the present day.
Now, all officials from Da Zhao will be given priority to the assessment and selection of Da Zhao Royal College. All officials in the prefecture and central officials must come from the Royal College or study in the Royal College before they can continue to rise." Zhao Xun ordered coldly
road.
Zhao Xun's move directly restricted the future of scholars from all over the country. If you want to be an official in Zhao State, you must follow the policies and systems of Zhao State, otherwise, you will always be a scholar. In addition,
To be the chief of a government and his official position, you must study in the Royal Academy. Otherwise, you can only become a minor official, and the county magistrate will be the magistrate.
"In addition, any official promotion must be carried out within a period of time, as long as the Royal Academy starts. From now on, the Royal Academy is divided into two parts, one is the place where officials study, and one is the place where scholars study.
Those who have excellent grades and no scholars who are just as local officials are allowed to enter the school.”
Zhao Xun did this to control these officials. He did not want these officials to form a huge network of forces with central officials for promotion. Now he has gathered all the promotions and dispatched appointments of these officials in his own hands and run alongside the central area.
Land.
Although many officials believed that King Zhao's move caused the power of various ministries, especially the Ministry of Personnel, to shrink a lot, Zhao Xun was passing on the orders directly at this moment, rather than discussing with everyone, so they could only
Press down on the thoughts that are in your heart.
More than a hundred scholars were killed in the assassination case, which immediately surprised scholars from all over Zhao State and many were dissatisfied. However, the edict issued by Zhao State immediately gave a fatal blow to these scholars.
What are the reasons for dissatisfaction and protest? It is not for their own future. But now, their future is related to their next actions. How dare they act rashly?
Causing trouble? Protesting? That means never talking about eternity and the future is over. If you want to be an official, you must follow the Zhao army's system and accept the Zhao army's policies. Should you continue to express your dissatisfaction or accept the Zhao army's system and follow the Zhao army
The policy, this is the reluctant choice of all scholars from the south and those who are dissatisfied with the Zhao system.
Even though some scholars still expressed dissatisfaction with the current behavior of the Zhao State government, there was no longer any response like the past. In the face of the future, everything else was no longer important. Even if they did not study like the Royal Academy, even though they
Haven't participated in the Zhao State Imperial Examination yet. However, even if the state school is successful, it is still qualified to be a local minor official, and then be promoted and become an official of the government. But if all fame and honor are removed by Zhao's army, then everything will be
No more, their hard work for so many years has been wasted. These scholars naturally know the pros and cons.
In addition to the fact that these scholars were severely dealt with by Zhao Xun, many officials and businessmen also suffered a bad luck in the assassination investigation. Although they were not related to the assassination, they were due to the problems between these officials and businessmen.
, and many officials were imprisoned, and many businessmen lost their families and money. This was also the accident that shocked many officials and businessmen, changing some of their past problems.
In addition, many people also saw that the assassination of King Zhao was probably fake, and King Zhao had to use this move to solve some problems. Many scholars in Youzhou City were involved in assassination and rebellion.
They all have one thing in common for being killed for crimes. In addition to being dissatisfied with the Zhao system, they also mentioned Da Yan and Emperor Yan many times.
