Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Liu Yu hooked the corner of his mouth: "Mu Zhi, what do you mean, the six counties in Jiangbei, you also want me to take it out and distribute it to the noble family?"

Liu Muzhi said calmly: "Ji Nu, didn't you just say that you want to punish Dao Lian? No matter if you are publicly convicted or dismissed privately, the internal history of Pengcheng is not his turn to do, right?"

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Because I don't return to Dao Lian, do I have to distribute these places to the more corrupt children of aristocratic families? You also said that Dao Lian is actually just a low-minded person who is instigated by the left and right. The people who really deceive people and occupy the land are the children of the noble family!"

Liu Muzhi said indifferently: "The sons of the aristocratic families around Dao Lian will be dismissed at the same time, but for the vacated positions, you must let the sons of the aristocratic families hold the positions. The fields and manors in the six counties in Jiangbei that have been operating for several years, you must let them In this war, the children of aristocratic families who have made contributions and made contributions occupy it, and as a deal, they can let them not intervene and encroach on the land of Qingzhou. What Miaoyin and I want to discuss with you is this transaction."

Liu Yu's eyes widened, and he said sternly: "How can there be such a deal? Even if the land of the six counties in Jiangbei is allocated, it must be allocated to the meritorious soldiers first. This is what we agreed before the expedition. The history of Pengcheng, Liu Daolian was incompetent, so he replaced Liu Jingxuan and went to Mi and the others. After a few years of development, this place has become a treasure land that can provide a large amount of military rations and population. How can the fruit ripen, so steal it from the family?"

Wang Miaoyin sighed: "Brother Yu, don't be so angry. Before, I made an agreement and promise with the noble family. After Nanyan was destroyed, I would give them some of the Murong clan and become a part of the family for generations. , you directly rejected it for me. So this time, I can only settle for the next best thing."

"Since we can't have Xianbei private soldiers who are agile and good at fighting and skilled in riding and shooting, we can only allocate land and manor to them. Qingzhou is a newly restored land, and human feelings have not yet been restored. I am afraid that most of the land is divided here. Nobles from aristocratic families are unwilling to come. And Jiangbei, the former border county, has now become the mainland with the demise of Nanyan. The noble families of Wudi who refused to come here before are willing to come. They are willing to make this deal. ."

Liu Yu sneered and said, "It doesn't take much effort, followed by some credit, turning the tax and manpower that should have been handed over to the state into his own dedication, and then relying on this dedication, he took the anointed land as his own. I already have, this transaction should not be too cost-effective. Then, if I go to the Northern Expedition after the Qin Dynasty and seize the land in the north of Henan in the Central Plains, Qingzhou becomes safe, then I have to develop the stable Qingzhou area again. Give the noble family a high door as the price to ask for their support next time?"

Wang Miaoyin said indifferently: "Next time, I'll talk about it next time. If you have the ability next time, you will be able to take out the Qin Dynasty completely from the treasury, and seize the materials and manpower in the Central Plains, or you can fight faster, three months. It can be over, you don’t need to send food from the rear, then you have the final say. Just like this time in Qingzhou, the local powerful clans provided military provisions and manpower, you can keep their land, manor, tenant farmers, Why is it impossible to change Jiankang's aristocratic family?"

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "The big clan in Qingzhou does not want to occupy both the power of the court and the local benefits. According to what you said, if you want to fight a place, you have to hand it over to a high-ranking family. Daquan, isn't it always a noble family?"

Wang Miaoyin shook her head calmly: "Don't you get credit for the Jingba brothers who follow you to fight? They don't have the ability to govern the country, but they have the ability to fight on the battlefield. You promote their official positions and increase their titles. They are also rich and noble, they can go out and enter the phase, and then they will become a new noble family, and weed out those who are ineffective, occupy positions and do not do things, won't it be enough?"

"Brother Yu, as long as there is a country and power, it is unavoidable for a noble family to hold great power. You can't abolish the system of this noble family all at once, you can only slowly use the emerging ones that have made great contributions. People at the bottom join the family system and become a new family."

"Then, you give ordinary people this hope, so that while they learn the skills of running a country and fighting wars, they can also believe that they can rely on their own struggle, make contributions to the country, become a family, and enjoy wealth. This is the only way for you to realize your ideals. The way. Instead of destroying the family when everyone does not accept the idea that everyone is equal."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Miaoyin is right, it is impossible to overthrow the aristocratic family all at once, and we can only slowly change the blood of the aristocratic family while preserving the aristocratic family. The biggest advantage of the local recovery is that military merit is the rule that everyone accepts. The common people serve the country from the military~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and make meritorious deeds. That is what can be done now. It will be much faster and easier for people to see hope if the scholars at the bottom can succeed in governance.”

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "The family occupies too much of the manor and land, this political merit will only belong to them, and as I said just now, the soldiers are attached to the family, and their military merits in wars are also counted in their names. The benefits of getting ahead will also belong to the aristocratic family, Fatty, don’t think I can’t see this! What kind of plan to slow down the army is to benefit the family, it’s me, not them!”

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "It sounds like this, but you don't think about it. With the current situation of the noble family and the fact that their nephews and nephews are not enough, where did they come from so many talents? It's not like we used to want to get ahead. You can only rely on the children of the aristocratic family. If you join the army, it is the Jingba brothers who have the final say. Even the aristocratic family can only cooperate to come in and get military merit. Those who have real skills are not necessarily the same as they used to be. Only by worshipping under the aristocratic family can they succeed. already."

Having said this, Liu Muzhi paused: "Think of how we joined the army back then. Without the care and promotion of the aristocratic family, it really wouldn't work, but those people who are now in the official school, and those who are new to the army, even if they are Xianbei followers, even if they don’t rely on aristocratic families, wouldn’t they be able to get ahead? Many of my subordinates have no basic background. As long as they do things well, will I still suppress them? The establishment of this system of merit-based titles seems trivial, but it is already a big step in changing the rules of the world. Even the aristocratic family, although it still has an advantage now, has to start adapting to this system. Over time, it will become a custom , which is what we call Xinde!"
