- Later Zhu Yuanzhang did the same thing. He wiped out the kings of different surnames, but divided the kings of different clans, in order to ensure that the Zhu family firmly controlled the world.
But in the end, these are the only proof that the harm of the princes of the clan is no less than that of the princes of different surnames, at least to the world. Although no matter whether the usurpation is successful or not, the Zhu family and the Liu family will ultimately dominate the world, achieving the goals of Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang.
But this is obviously not Liu Zhang's purpose. If his descendants bring trouble to the world like this, it is better to change dynasties. If Liu Zhang was Sima Zhao, their ancestors would feel extremely shameful if a chaos like the Eight Kings Rebellion of the Jin Dynasty happened.
For the troubles of the world and the people, the children of the clan and the surname are the same, and even more tragic, because the king of those clan children is eligible to succeed the throne.
The reason why Liu Zhang stipulated this was also to prevent chaos in the clan.
Huang Yueying was surprised and nodded slightly. If Liu Zhang started to say this, Huang Yueying would definitely have to refute, but Liu Zhang had already said a lot of things that were beyond her understanding. Knowing that this was Liu Zhang's idea, she couldn't refute even if she refuted it. .
If everyone is treated equally, even the clan can only be granted descending titles, and the country cannot be governed without opening a government, perhaps the civil and military forces will be more balanced.
"But Huang Yueying still has a sad look on her face. There are three sons in the family. If the eldest son doesn't get the apple, the second son and the third son will definitely feel better.
But if the second son and the third son originally felt that they should get the apple, but now they can¡¯t get it, even the eldest son didn¡¯t get it, wouldn¡¯t they feel happy?
They were originally unhappy when the capital was moved to Peking, but now that they are granted these titles, they will only become even more unhappy.
Huang Yueying is really worried about whether something will happen.
"Besides that." Liu Zhangruo glanced at Huang Yueying meaningfully before saying, "Yueying. You will help me, right?"
"Of course Iwait." Huang Yueying looked at Liu Zhang's malicious expression, and suddenly understood: "My lord, you won'tyou should do the same as last time when you decided to capitalize in Beijing. Let me first ask for help." Decreasing the title, not opening a mansion, not running the country?"
Huang Yueying looked at Liu Zhang and saw the affirmative answer from Liu Zhang's expression. Suddenly he became furious and stood up in a flash: "My lord, you have gone too far. Now I finally know why you wanted to canonize me as King Yan in the first place. You have already made this idea, haven't you?"
Huang Yueying's face turned red with anger. She didn't care much about the title. Not to mention that Huang Yueying was about to marry Liu Zhang. Even if she was a man, she knew that the title of Prince Yan was too high and she would be eliminated sooner or later.
If the title is reduced, there will be no government and no government. On the contrary, you will be safe, and at least you can enjoy wealth and wealth.
What Huang Yueying was angry about was that Liu Zhang had plotted against her so early, and she still didn't know it.
Self-invitation for a decreasing title If you don't open a government and don't govern the country, it's not just a decline in your power and position, but more importantly. He was blocking the mouths of other ministers.
It¡¯s still the same as before, the second son and the third son originally thought they would get apples. As a result, the eldest son came to tell his father that he didn¡¯t want any more apples, so the second son and the third son also had no apples.
The second son and the third son must first hate not their father, but the eldest son.
Poor me, I am about to become the eldest son of tragedy.
Liu Zhang looked at the angry Huang Yueying, his old face was a little uneasy, and pulled Huang Yueying's light yellow skirt: "Yueying, sit down first, sit down first, if not, let's discuss it later."
Huang Yueying sat down angrily, and after a while she said with some resentment: "Well, this is good. It can minimize the unkindness and resentment of other civil and military officials towards you. If I am hated, I will be hated. Bar."
"I have decided to change the previous levels of titles and divide the kings into five levels. The first is the side by side king, which is below one person and above ten thousand people. Only you, Yueying, can hold this title."
¡°You¡¯ve promoted me to the next level and become the king alongside me. It¡¯s such a great official.¡±
Huang Yueying curled her lips. If it had been before, Huang Yueying would have jumped up and told Liu Zhang not to seal her when she heard the words "side by side king".
But if you don¡¯t open a government, you don¡¯t govern the country, you don¡¯t have any power, and you still have a diminishing title.
This side-by-side king only symbolizes wealth and status and has no use. A prime minister is nodding and bowing to you. Are you proud of it? Then look at how many officials are fawning over the prime minister, or how many are fawning over you as the king?
Liu Zhang knew that Huang Yueying was seriously dissatisfied with him, but he didn't take it seriously. He continued: "The second level is the king of a state, and the following are the county king, county king and Wushiyi king.
"Fazheng, Zhang Ren, Wei Yan, Zhe Lanying, I all plan to enthrone them as kings of a state,"Li Xiang, Zhao Yun and others were all canonized as county kings. Zhao Yun and others were ignored and were not counted as confidants.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? "
"There are so many people you want to harm. If you continue to do this, you will probably have all the civil and military officials in the house to hold grudges. Xiaozhi, Zhang Ren and the others should just forget about it. It's not easy to follow you. AnywayI will be yours sooner or later. , if you are hated, you will be hated, I will beat you."
"I knew Yueying would understand me." Liu Zhang suddenly put his arms around Huang Yueying's slender waist and hugged her over. The scent of female body was so refreshing that Liu Zhang couldn't help but not want to let go.
"I'm sorry for you." Liu Zhang whispered in Huang Yueying's ear. Huang Yueying's ears turned red when the heat burned her, but she pulled away from Liu Zhang's arms.
"Okay, the matter of the title is over, it's time to discuss the official system. You don't plan to use the original official system of the Han Dynasty. Then you can explain the new official system in detail. I will go back and review it in detail."
Liu Zhang nodded, "I have told you before that I plan to use a new system called the Three Provinces and Six Ministries System"
The Qin Dynasty became the first feudal dynasty, and the Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, but the bureaucratic system is still being improved. The current Han official system is bloated in some places, weak in others, and is obviously not very conducive to centralization.
This kind of official system was still very rough throughout the feudal period, so Liu Zhang did not plan to use it.
Relatively speaking, the Three Provinces and Six Ministries system is a very strict feudal bureaucratic system, which is much more mature than the official system during the Han Dynasty, otherwise it would not have continued from the Sui Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty.
This system has been tested over time and demonstrates its practicality.
But Liu Zhang planned to use the three provinces and six ministries system. Some simple modifications were made because Liu Zhang felt that although the three-province and six-department system was well-organized and managed systematically, the checks and balances of each department were conducive to centralization of power.
But there is one biggest weakness, which is not conducive to the integrity of officials. Since the implementation of the three-province and six-ministry system, the number of officials has been significantly higher than that of the Qin and Han Dynasties. There may be other reasons, but the weakness of the three-province and six-ministry system of weak supervision is definitely a big reason.
We must make all officials selfless. That is impossible, but there are relative checks and balances that can reduce officialdom corruption.
??Throughout the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, all dynasties had their own ways to curb corruption. But the results seem to be very small, especially in the Ming Dynasty, which had the most methods and the most corruption. The more it was punished, the more corrupt it became.
Liu Zhang is not sure that his method will work, but fortunately he will not die soon, and there is still time left. It can be improved gradually.
After talking to Huang Yueying about the outline of the three provinces and six ministries system, Huang Yueying went out. She needed to go back to organize the system and then communicate with the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs. Otherwise, when a new official system comes down, everyone will be confused.
Feel free to listen to these civil and military opinions.

¡°Dong¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ªDong¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ªDong¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡±
December 12th, just like the 12th year of Jianwu two hundred years ago, is a memorable day for the Han Dynasty. Because this day marked the end of the Han Dynasty after the second great chaos in the world. Unified again.
The Empress Dowager Fu Shou issued an edict to establish Shu King Liu Zhang as the new emperor and accept the homage of the civil and military ministers.
However, the first place Liu Zhang went to was not the newly built imperial palace in Beijing, nor was he to sit on the dragon chair that no one had sat on for many years.
On a cold morning in the north, the morning bell of the Stargazing Tower echoed in the quiet imperial city of Beijing. The clear smoke lingered and slowly disappeared on top of the majestic black tower.
Above the towering stone staircase are eighteen rooftops, symbolizing the totems of the eighteen states of the Han Dynasty, including Dianzhou, the Western Regions, the Northern Grasslands, Goguryeo, and the Wonu Kingdom. They guard the black spiritual pagodas and the beast statues cast from molten iron look up to the sky. .
This is the highest point in Beijing and a holy place that all Han people should worship.
Because the black tower of the Wangxing Tower enshrines all the civil and military heroes who sacrificed their lives for the Han Dynasty and made outstanding contributions to the Han Dynasty.
Liu Zhang specially built this high platform, even more carefully than the palace. He moved the Qilin Pavilion from the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Meritorious Minister Pavilion in Luoyang of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Meritorious Minister Pavilion in Chengdu, as well as all the deceased meritorious ministers, to this place.
The Pavilion of Heroes at Wangxingtai of the Han Dynasty includes the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty who founded the Han Dynasty, Cao Shen and Zhou Yafu during the period of recuperation, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing during the Han Wu period, the twenty-eight Yuntai generals of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, and Ban Chao Huangfu in the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty. Song et al.
In addition, it also includes the important generals who died during the rise of Liu Zhang, including Qu Tian, ??Leng Bao, the generals who died in the Battle of Baichuan, the generals who died in the Battle of Yangpingguan, and many Sichuan?In a war with heavy casualties, there are hundreds of memorial tablets to the civilian officials who were killed by the rebels during the Jingyi rebellion.
On the wide stone staircase leading to the Tower of Meritorious Officers, Liu Zhang led Huang Yueying, Fazheng, Zhang Ren and four others, and slowly stepped onto the high platform. When the morning mist stepped on Liu Zhang's feet, a black door appeared in front of him. In front of you.
The people who manage the Tower of Heroes are not officials and the army. The army is only responsible for the security outside the Stargazing Tower. The people who manage the Tower of Heroes are some carefully selected monks.
Although Liu Zhang did not believe in any kind of salvation, he felt that using these monks to accompany the heroes and recite scriptures every day was a sign of respect for the deceased heroes.
The young novice monk at the door clasped his hands and hurriedly greeted him.
"Your Highness, the Martyrs' Shrines in Chengdu, Luoyang, and Chang'an have all been moved to the Heroes' Tower!"
Liu Zhang nodded slightly, waved to the little novice monk, and approached the heavy door. He did not ask anyone to open the door, but pushed it open with his own hands. In the hall of the flying hall, thousands of bottles of memorial tablets moved with the light. , slowly appeared in front of Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang walked under the bottle of tablets in the center and gently stroked the cold outline of the spiritual tablet. After a long time, Liu Zhang slowly stood up. Each bottle of tablets flashed through Liu Zhang's eyes one by one.
In the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, countless shining stars have fallen, laying the foundation of the Han nation, and the characters symbolized by these tablets here have all contributed.
At the bottom of the tablet with Leng Bao in the middle, without these people, the Sichuan Army would not be where it is today.
When building this Pavilion of Heroes, before proclaiming himself emperor, Liu Zhang came to pay homage here first, in order to tell everyone in the Han Dynasty never to forget the martyrs who had contributed to the Han nation in the past.
¡°At the same time, it also tells the world that if you have made outstanding contributions to the Han nation, you will also be remembered.
Liu Zhang had some hatred for those who forgot the deceased martyrs, and forgetting represented betrayal and the degeneration of a nation.
Entering the lingering incense burner, it seems that the heroes of the troubled times who have turned into cold smoke are still looming in the smoke.
¡°Dong¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ªDong¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ªDong¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡±
The morning bell of the Meritorious Minister Tower rang for the second time. Liu Zhang glanced at the mourning hall again, stepped back slightly, and saluted all the tablets solemnly. Behind him, Huang Yueying, Zhang Ren, and Fazheng also saluted respectfully.
When Liu Zhang came out, eight soldiers came over carrying a cloth roll and opened it on the high platform. A huge picture was displayed, with five big characters on the top: Picture of Broken Mountains and Rivers.
The original drawing of this picture was with Fu Shou. He hired the most skilled embroidery girl in the craftsman's workshop to embroider the broken mountains and rivers onto the huge canvas.
This picture not only contains the scenes of Chang'an painted by Fu Shou, but also collected tragic scenes of troubled times from all over the world, all of which are drawn in the picture of broken mountains and rivers.
Cities, villages, roads, a large number of refugees fleeing famine, women under rebel soldiers, emaciated children, rickety old people under ruins, battlefields with thousands of troops, people lining up to receive relief with confused eyes
Various scenes gathered together to form a whole picture, which was displayed on the towering stargazing platform. The grand atmosphere was filled with desolation.
The canvas was mounted in a huge transparent jade plaque and hung high on the pillar wall outside the Gongchen Pavilion. Liu Zhang walked out from under the plaque.
Under the high platform, Zhe Lanying, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Wang Shuang, Fan Lixiang, Jiang Wan, Huang Quan, Li Yan and other civil and military officials, as well as many soldiers, quietly stared at the canvas.
Liu Zhang stepped onto the outer edge of the rooftop. Under the high stone stairs, headed by Zhe Lanying and Huang Quan, all the civil and military officials bowed down.
"Your Highness, King of Shu, is respectfully invited to ascend the throne!" The majestic tones of the mountains and rivers broke through the last silence of the morning.
"Send an order to bring all the prisoners under the star-gazing platform to rectify the law on the spot to sacrifice the souls of thousands of heroes of the Han Dynasty in heaven!"
Countless prisoners were strung up in strings and escorted by a large number of troops, including former descendants of the Hebei and Central Plains families, as well as the descendants of the Huang family and hundreds of officials who committed the crime this time.
The total number reached more than 100,000, and they were all taken into custody. The executioner's knife blade glowed with cold light.
Liu Zhang believed that only the blood of countless people can make the Han people truly remember their former heroes and remember the broken mountains and rivers. - Didn't finish reading?
