    Even Yan Yi disagrees with the modification of this article.  .?????? He has seen the scene in the market where elections take power.  In the election month, wealthy businessmen shuttle back and forth, carrying large and small bags, and canvassing votes in person.  And some small businessmen shamelessly marked the price of the ticket in their hand.  Even if there are occasionally talented and heroic people who win the hearts of the people and are elected to exercise power, they will soon be corrupted by sugar-coated bullets.  This is still in Guanzhong, at the feet of the emperor!  If you leave Hangu Pass and head east to Luoyang, then the situation will be even more serious!  ??The local government has taken power and has almost become a lackey of wealthy businessmen and powerful people!  They control prices, manipulate the market, and even maliciously squeeze out competitors. ?????????????????????? If the local village pavilions are just like Shan Quan, and the people are allowed to vote, then there is no doubt that what happened to Shan Quan will be replicated in the village pavilions.  By then, I¡¯m afraid people¡¯s hearts will be lost and the simplicity will no longer exist!  However, Yan Yi had no choice.  This is the will of the emperor!  What can he do?  And the ministers were even more uproar, talking and whispering among themselves. They had a lot of opinions on the addition of this law.  "Your Majesty!" An official who looked like a county governor came out to pay homage: "Your Majesty, Zhou Taimei, the governor of Pi County, died and said: I am foolish to think that this law is very inappropriate! Since ancient times, people have been governed by hard work, and those who work hard should be governed. If today's law  If the people are allowed to be autonomous, the prestige of the county will be lost, and the dignity of the Han officials will be wiped out!" "Your Majesty, your Majesty, Sui Yang ordered Xu Zhi to second the proposal" In an instant, more than ten local county guards and county lieutenants came to the rescue!  All came out to express their opposition.  This is the instinctive reaction of the bureaucracy.  The authority in the pavilion is very important!  The pavilion chief and Li Zheng are the last links between the bureaucracy and the people. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If the people elect the chief of the pavilion, and in the future, if there is a local matter, if it is necessary to deploy corv¨¦e laborers, or even to allocate various exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, wouldn't it be possible to encounter resistance?  Those pavilion chiefs who pretend to be fellow villagers may dare to challenge local officials, and dare to use public opinion to oppose local officials!  There are examples!  After the Zhangqiu Incident, Zhangqiu County became a county with unruly people who were feared by officials all over the world.  There have been four county magistrates and more than a dozen county lieutenants in the local area in the past few years. As a result, these county magistrates and county lieutenants were all run away by the people of Zhangqiu.  One of the county magistrates just wanted to collect more money and improve his living conditions, but the county magistrate was blocked by these unscrupulous people.  Jinan County was afraid of repeating the mistakes of the Zhangqiu Incident, so it could only quickly transfer the county magistrate, send people to put out the fire, and promised a bunch of preferential conditions to make these unruly people obey.  With this example, the bureaucrats would rather die than see unruly people like Zhangqiu appear under their rule.  It¡¯s so disgusting that it makes me sick to death!  Some people oppose it, and naturally some people support it.  "Your Majesty" Among the foreign ministers, Dou Guangguo, the Marquis of Zhangwu, stood up slowly, looked at the ministers, and then said softly: "I think this method is very good! This way can not only stabilize the people and govern themselves, but also prevent the harm to the people.  Officer! The method of the sage king!" Taichang Dou Pengzu also said: "Your Majesty, I heard that Duke Heshang once said: When a sage governs a big country, he should be frugal and not extravagant.  Don't dare to do it! The people have hundreds of weapons but don't use them. This is the method of the Holy King! Now your Majesty uses the method of the Holy King to bring peace to the world. I would like to congratulate the world!" A group of famous ministers and nobles of the Huanglao sect came out one after another.  This law is clear.  The reason is simple. For the Huang-Lao faction, a small government and a big society is the ideal society they pursue.  As Lao Tzu said: Neighboring countries look at each other, chickens and dogs hear each other, and the people do not interact with each other until they grow old and die.  They absolutely support civil autonomy and people¡¯s autonomy!  Although the Huang Lao Sect is now in decline, its power in the court is still very strong.  In an instant, their momentum overwhelmed those who opposed it.  Especially the god card they brought out was Lord Heshang!  Who is Lord Heshang?  Maybe future generations will know very little about this, but during the Qin and Han dynasties, and even during the entire Chinese feudal dynasty, the name of Duke Heshang was well-known!  He is the founder of Fang Xiandao, a branch of Huanglao sect in Qin and Han Dynasties, and the ancestor of Taoist magic sticks.  He has a disciple named An Qisheng.  Well, it is the legend that the gods are ghosts, longevity, and immortality.  Even the first emperor of Qin and Emperor Wu of Han spent their whole lives praying for it.The immortal who asked to see you!  Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty regarded this man as his ancestor. He once wrote in his work: In this year, he traveled to the rooftop, watched the sunrise over the East China Sea, enjoyed the scenic views of the Immortal Mountains, visited the old place of Taigong, saw the remains of the Immortal Ancestor, and met An.  Mr. Qi's stone house is still there, and the traces of the Duke's sitting on the river are still there.  Li Longji and other later generations of emperors who sought immortality also wrote poems to express their admiration for this immortal ancestor.  Even if two thousand years pass, there will still be many scenic spots bearing the name of this immortal ancestor in the Tiantai Mountain Scenic Area.  But at this time, Heshang Gong¡¯s religious status was secondary to his academic status.  The annotated version of the Tao Te Ching he left behind is the most authoritative annotated version of the Tao Te Ching in the world. All Huang Lao scholars must read his annotated version of the Tao Te Ching.  His position in the Huang-Lao sect is just like that of Mr. Zixia to Confucianism, and what Han Feizi is to Legalism.  He is a key figure who connects the past and the future.  It can even be said that the essence of the governing thoughts of the Huang-Lao School politicians of the Han Dynasty was derived from the thoughts of this unknown Huang-Lao School sage.  This gentleman was the first to put forward the concepts of quietness and resting with the people.  When Dou Guangguo took the lead, Huang Laopai followed closely behind, and after making his own voice, the whole hall suddenly fell silent.  Zhang Wuhou Dou Guangguo represents the face of the Empress Dowager.  His voice represents the Empress Dowager¡¯s attitude on this matter.  The current Empress Dowager was not an easy person to deal with.  Although she doesn¡¯t care about political affairs anymore, it¡¯s still very simple for her to kill a few officials.  Didn¡¯t you see that the Confucian tycoon Yuan Gusheng has been suppressed because he offended this person, and he didn¡¯t even get a doctorate? So, for a while, the scholar-bureaucrats were a little afraid.  But they soon put this fear behind them.  Because this involves their fundamental interests!  If this law is passed, what will happen if the mud-legged people rebel in the future?  A few seconds later, someone bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Dou Junhou, Taichang and others said is wrong!" Liu Che looked at this person and sneered in his heart.  He knows this guy, he is a Legalist.  To be precise, it¡¯s Chao Cuo¡¯s confidant, classmate, and the governor of Julu County, Yang Kai.  ?Obviously, it is not only the Confucians who are dissatisfied with this law, but the Legalists are also unhappy with this law that may lead to the revival of the Huang-Lao sect. More importantly, the Legalists are not willing to give the people any autonomy!  In the eyes of Legalists, the people only have the right to obey and follow their arrangements.  Where is the autonomy?
