    Shixun warned his son Shifu: "Do you want to imitate Sima and get Zen? The times are different. How can it be compared with Zhongda in Nangshi, who accepted the importance of Wen and Ming and became an assistant minister, while Cao Shuang only had Gaopingling because he used a small group of people and went against the grain?"  However, Zhongda was in charge of the Wei government and had no intention of usurping the throne. He captured his son and settled in Huainan, and destroyed the Shu Han Dynasty.  Taking over the legacy of our ancestors, is this what we, my father and my son, can do? It will only lead to great disaster!" It was as you said when Sima Zhongda launched the "Gaoping Ling Revolution".  We are both seventy and eighty years old, and you are still in your prime. If you can survive, we will still have a lot of time to cultivate our power No, since dad's destiny is his, then he will definitely not die!  Probably seeing through his son's thoughts, Shi Xun sighed slightly: "The great road is there, but it is elusive and unpredictable, and as for the sky, it is really insensible. How can it bless people and give them life? Those who succeed are almost due to their circumstances."  "Ear, it has nothing to do with God's will. What is the value of the emperor? In the eyes of future generations, it is just a matter of fighting." While there is still time, let me tell you what happened one thousand eight hundred years ago.  , let me tell you how advanced science and technology were at that time, how developed productivity was, and how much people¡¯s living standards were improved. ¡°If I were to be a city clerk and a small official in this world, it would be better than the emperors in this world.¡±  He was dazzled by what he heard, but a little unbelievable, so he asked: "As my grandfather said, two thousand years ago, in the time of Yao and Shun, everyone walked on foot, but now riding a horse, the difference is only ten times; and Yun Er  Thousands of years later, flying in the sky, heading towards the North Sea in the morning and reaching the South China Sea in the evening, like riding a Kunpeng, the difference will be no less than a thousand times. Then all the people in the future will be like gods. How can human beings in the future be able to develop like this?  Soon?  Shi Xun sighed.  I thought to myself, then we have to talk about the Industrial Revolution Damn it, how long will it take me to tell you about it, and how can I explain it to you so that you can understand it?  After all, he was seriously ill and talked all night.  I felt my mouth was dry and my mind was dizzy.  He simply closed his eyes and said, "It's day and night. If I survive, I'll tell you tomorrow." But when I woke up after a night's sleep, I had no chance to educate my son. Relatives, friends, and colleagues heard that the Duke had recovered and came to visit him one after another.  .  Zhang Ji said that his father needed to rest and could not bear such annoyance, so most of them got in the way, except for his close relatives and disciples.  There were also important officials of the imperial court who were put into the inner chamber without being blocked, such as the clan nephew Shi Xiang, senior brother Xi Liu, Cao De and his son, the son-in-law's eldest brother Xia Houheng, and so on.  Zhuge Kongming and Sima Zhongda came together after work, intending to serve their husband for a night.  Shixun shook his head and said no, your diligence in state affairs is the best comfort and condolence to me.  He also called both Fu and Tan over, and said to the two disciples: "It's no fault of your recklessness, Tan'er is still young. I hope you will treat him as your own brother and take good care of him." Kong Ming was just recovering from his illness, but his complexion was still yellow.  Hearing this, I couldn't help but burst into tears and said, sir, don't be depressed, but have the confidence to recover.  This disease will definitely get better. "Mr. Time is indispensable!" Shi Xun said that Zhang Zhongjing is in my house, and even he is helpless, so why do you have unrealistic expectations?  Then he said: "I told the emperor yesterday that Kong Ming can help me in my career." After saying this, he suddenly felt something in his heart. He couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Sima Yi, thinking that Zhongda was still two years older than Kong Ming.  Yesterday I said nothing about it without thinking about it.  Will Zhongda feel uncomfortable?  But I saw Sima Yi lowering his eyes and his expression did not change slightly.  Just like a primary school student who listens honestly, this person has a deep scheming that even Kong Ming cannot match.  "But Xun also noticed that there was something slightly wrong with the way he looked at Sima Yi today. This guy thought he was clumsy on the outside but clever on the inside. In fact, he was far worse than Zhongda.  I entrusted my son to these two most capable and potentially promising disciples, but if there was a dispute or even a fight between them, would my son be implicated?  Fu Ke is definitely no match for those two!  So he slowly said: "Kong Ming is loyal and prudent, and he will not succumb to my ambition. Zhongda is like a wild goose flying in the sky, and it is beyond the reach of my fence" If the family can be regarded as a martial arts sect, it is Xun's intention.  It is to pass the position of head to the second disciple Zhuge Liang, but at the same time allow the eldest disciple Sima Yi to establish his own school. In fact, you are more powerful than the second disciple. I want to trap you in the sect, which will restrict your development and affect you.  future.  After Sima Yi heard this, he felt much better and quickly expressed his position: "Yi dare not. Sir, he is like Mount Tai, he looks up to it and looks up to it. He looks forward and backward. Yi is just inheriting the teachings, so why restrict him?" In the end, it was Xun who drove him away.  After having two apprentices, he still had to save some energy to continue educating his son.  But before that, I invited Huan Fan to come over. Before I told him to assist Shi Fu, he said casually: "I can't afford it now. Cui Yan and others will definitely play the crown, but they will not harm our government." Shi Fu is here.  I have been staying at home for two days to serve my father. Yesterday Cao Mao came to see me, and today all the ministers and other ministers came to visit me."You dare to bother Duke Ling with state affairs, so he is not clear about the changes in the court in the past few days."  However, Huanfan was the mastermind of the family, always watching six directions and listening to all directions. He took the opportunity to tell Shixun: "Yesterday, the group discussed and the emperor listened to the government. Due to the new regulations, he ordered the censor to patrol the prefectures and counties, and no envoys exceeded the regulations  " In the feudal era, hierarchy was strict. The court stipulated that people with different statuses could obtain different levels of material enjoyment. Exceeding the regulations was called "exceeding the regulations" and was also a felony.  Shi Xun has always been disgusted with this, and he has written articles to criticize it many times. Therefore, when setting up the national system for Cao Cao, he only retained the distinction between monarch and ministers. The emperor's enjoyment must not be the same as that of his ministers. As for the officials and the people, etc.  , only distinguishing them in travel rituals, not to show their identity, but to ensure the dignity of the court.  But he also used traditional caste regulations to prevent land annexation and retained restrictions on the number of private fields.  Although the truly wealthy officials have various means to circumvent restrictions, and even if they really "exceed the rules", unless the court investigates and handles them ruthlessly, no one will dare to ask, but having regulations is better than having no regulations at all.  Loopholes are better than being able to do whatever you want.  Just like in the late Ming Dynasty, the government's credibility and execution ability dropped to the bottom, so even merchants in the Jiangnan area went beyond the regulations and wore silk.  But in the early days of the dynasty, when the credibility and execution ability were acceptable, no one dared to violate the land policy casually. The same was true for the land policy. If you let it go from the beginning.  It is estimated that it will become overwhelming in less than twenty years. If the regulations are stricter at the beginning, maybe it can last for another twenty years Traditional scholar-bureaucrats.  Especially the children of wealthy families, most of them are supporters of the hierarchy.  Let alone officials, your family doesn't even have a few scholars. How dare you live better than me just because you have a lot of money?  It is unbearable!  Therefore, people often came forward and asked to redefine the hierarchy, but Shixun always pushed back without being hard or soft.  This time when Xun fell ill, Cui Yan felt that an opportunity had come, so he encouraged Cao Mao to pass his new hierarchy.  The number of private fields, the size of houses, daily utensils, and the materials of clothing are all divided into eight levels: emperor, prince, minister, chief minister, subordinate official, commoner, merchant, and humble servant. Each has its own differences, and confusion is strictly prohibited.  After listening to Huan Fan's story, Shi Xun couldn't help but became furious. He pointed his halberd in the air and scolded: "How dare Shuzi do this?!" After he finished scolding, he finally realized, hey, my arms can actually movecould this be  A flashback?  Thinking of this, his anger worsened, and he couldn't help but sigh: "People have never been able to stop their political power. I am also inevitable. Although I look forward to Kong Ming, with Kong Ming's current reputation, I may not be able to compete with Cui." As far as official salary is concerned.  In fact, Zhuge Liang and Cui Yan are only one level apart, but Cui Yan, as the secretary-supervisor, had previously launched the "Gaoling Incident" and had infiltrated the prime minister's team, so he was not something Zhuge Liang could compete with, even if he added Sima Yi, it would not be enough.  As for the other prime ministers, according to Huan Fan, only Zhongshu Zuopushe Zheng Hun and Yushi Dafu Huan Jie voted against, Shangshu Zuopushe Bao Xun abstained, and the rest Zhong Yao, Chen Qun, Cui Yan, and Yang Xiu voted against  All in favor.  Four to two, so the proposal was successfully passed.  Even though Zheng Wengong and Huan Boxu voted against it.  It is probably because of his own face, and once he dies.  Whether they will use all their strength to challenge Cui Yan, and whether Cao Mao will find an opportunity to depose them, are all unpredictable.  If Cui Jigui is a ghost, he will first find a breakthrough in his own policies that are not generally approved by the bureaucrats. I believe he will intensify his efforts in the future and overthrow all the systems he has worked so hard to manage one by one!  ¡° Alas, after all, I am just a flash in the pan. The historical inertia is so strong that I will eventually return to the old path If I had known this, why did I have to worry so much and hope for a change?  "The destiny cannot be violated after all?" Who would have thought that Fu Fu suddenly interjected: "The destiny cannot be violated, adults must not go against heaven. Just cheer up, God will never abandon me!"  It was Xun Xin who said, "The destiny I'm talking about is not the destiny you think of!"  My mood became extremely bad, my body was affected, and I became more and more tired.  He is too lazy to give lectures to his son anymore. If I really close my eyes, you can go find the answer in the small box under the west wall of the study. How much you can understand and understand depends entirely on God's will. Anyway, I can't control it.  He wanted to sleep peacefully, so he ordered the two of them to go out first.  As soon as he left the dormitory, Shi Xun took Huan Fan aside and asked him: "If my father doesn't hide his secrets, Cui will abolish his government. What can I do? Does Yuan Ze have any countermeasures?" Huan Fan said, no matter you, the master, or the lord, it is inevitable.  You think too much. "My lord once said in the past that the key to government is to adapt to the situation and the situation, and to win over the masses. If the masses benefit, the government will survive; if the few benefit, the government will be abolished. Today's lord's government  , it is not just the heroes and officials, including the Shan family and the merchants, who have been used for thousands of years. If the Shang monarch dies but the Qin government will not be replaced, who will die and the government will cease?  The Lord has many policies, but he dares not to change them at all. If he changes, he will harm the public, and he will die without getting sick. " " Many of Shi Xun's policies have beenMany people who were originally excluded from the ruling class will benefit, and they will also have the opportunity to sharpen their heads to get to the upper levels. This is just a reward if they never get the benefit. Once they get the benefit, you let them spit it out.  Then who is willing to do it?  Just like the imperial examination system. Now that it has been held for two terms, it is about to have a third term. Many people from poor families have passed the imperial examination to become officials. If you want to abolish it, will they agree?  If Cui Yan dares to go against the trend and harm the interests of the new rich, how long does he plan to live?  Yes, my father may be too pessimistic, but you are too optimistic. "Government that benefits everyone will definitely make the country safe, and if the clouds are not easy, the country will last forever." If you say it is beneficial to everyone,  The policy must be able to exist for a long time, and if it is not abolished, then there will be no country destruction and dynasty change in the world.  Huan Fan said: "Young Master sees the same thing. Good governance cannot be stopped, but it can be abolished. As time goes by, even good talents will inevitably grow weeds. When Kong Ming and others are in power, the Young Master should also cheer up and show off to his father.  "Good policies will not be kicked over by others, but they may be gradually destroyed, so we need you, the disciples, to inherit the lord's ambition and find ways to maintain it for a long time."  Shifu frowned, thinking about it and said: "I have a plan, Yuan Ze will give it a try" (To be continued.)
