The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

If it is said that the field is the first priority for Xun Zhen after welcoming Liu Xie and the court to Xu County, then the plan is the first important thing that the court will do after Liu Xie and others move to Xu County.

In the Han family system, every October, the prefectures and states go to the court. For those who are "calculated", Xu Shen explained in "Shuowen Jiezi" as "meeting and calculating", that is, the meaning of calculation; Report to the court. In the words of later generations, that is, the local government makes an overall report to the imperial court once a year, including the situation of the local "household registration, cultivation of land, money and grain in and out, and the number of thieves" and so on. It is equivalent to that, each natural year is from the first month to December, but each fiscal year, in this dynasty, is from October of this year to September of the following year.

- Since it is an annual summary, why not at the end of the year, or at the beginning of the following year, but in October? This was influenced by the Qin Dynasty system. The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system. The calendar, politics, laws and other systems of this dynasty were mostly copied from the Qin Dynasty. In the Qin Dynasty, the beginning of the year was every October. Therefore, at the beginning of this dynasty, October was also the beginning of the year. , It was not until the promulgation of Emperor Wu's "Taichu Calendar" that the first month was changed to the beginning of the year, but the time of the calculation has not changed, and it has continued to this day, all in October.

In previous years, when there was peace, around October, the capital was quite lively.

Except for a few remote counties, the imperial court specially allowed two or more years to go to the central court to count once a year, the rest of the hundreds of counties and counties are counted once a year. All the high-ranking officials of all the counties and states under the rule of the Han have gathered in the capital. There are hundreds of high-ranking officials alone, plus the subordinates of the high-level officials, there are more than hundreds of selected officials of each county! The posthouses set up in the capital by various counties and states were filled with people.

Before the plan, these high-ranking officials, either visiting relatives and friends who were officials in the court, or paying homage to the ministers in the court on the orders of the chief officials, the accents from all over the country could be heard in the capital, it was really lively and lively.

And on the day of the plan, more than a hundred senior plan officials gathered in the Situ Mansion, bowed down in the spacious courtyard, and the Situ held the ceremony to officially start the plan; The third public servant of the Shangshutai, the imperial censor who is in the "Supervision Hundred Officials", and the Da Si Nong "in charge of the money and valley income and expenditure" and other institutions started to conduct specific audits and audits.

After the whole work was completed, the court discussed and rewarded the superiors of the prefectures and punished the laggards.

Because Shangji is an important channel for the relationship between the local and the imperial court, and Shangji officials are the representatives of the county and state, so although the ranks of the officials are low, it is only a hundred stones, but during this period, some officials may have He will also be received by the emperor. For example, Guo Hong, the ancestor of Guo Tu’s clan, also served as the superior officer of Yingchuan County. He was summoned by the emperor, the former emperor of the Han Dynasty, and his speech was beautiful. , The answer was fluent, and he sighed for Emperor Yuan, "Yingchuan has such a debater, why did Zigong and Yan Ying add it?"

All in all, the above plan is a general review of the work of the empire in one year, and it is also a general beginning of the work of the next year. No matter the scene or the specific sense, it can be worthy of being said to be an annual political event. .

But it's just that Dong Zhuo has been in chaos, and the feudal lords of the Quartet are divided. This grand event has not been reproduced in the dynasty for many years.

There is a saying that "wenzhi and martial arts", in order to truly rule the court, to be convinced and supported by the courtiers and the people, only to achieve military results, which is far from enough, and must also make enough political achievements. Only in this way can one's own prestige truly be established in the court, and also can the court, or in other words, one's own majesty truly spread all over the world, laying a solid foundation for future development. When it was decided to move the capital to Xu County, Xun Zhen had already started to "plan" this matter.

Not only the counties of Xu, Yan, and Qingzhou under his control, as well as the two counties of Jiujiang and Fuling, but also the four counties in the east of Sizhou, Yin, Hongnong, Hedong and Hanoi in Henan. An imperial edict was passed down in the DPRK, telling its superiors to arrive in Xuxian before October, and Yuzhou, which was controlled by Sun Ce, had also passed down the order in advance, and Yangzhou and Jingzhou under Liu Biao also had them. The will is passed on.

Of course, Yuan Shu's Nanyang, Yuan Shao's Jizhou and other places, Gaogan and Cao Cao's Taiyuan and other counties, Guanzhong's three Sizhou counties, Liuzhang's Yizhou, and even You, Liang and other prefectures also all had decrees sent to them. Jiaozhou is too far away, and there is no decree, but whether the county governors in these places will send the strategist to come, or whether they can send the strategist to come, this is out of Xunzhen's control.

But this is the case, even if these uncontrollable counties are excluded, roughly speaking, the counties that will be counted in Xu County this year will reach thirty or forty, accounting for nearly half of the total counties in the world. If you only count the place that has always been rich, it will account for more than half.

…

After listening to the official report that he was the superior officer of Hedong, Xun Zhen asked Yuan Sui, "Have the superior officers of Qing, Yan, Xu, and Henan all arrived?"

Yuan Sui replied: "In reply to Duke Ming's words, in the four prefectures and counties, only Qingzhou still has the superior planners in Donglai and Beihai prefectures, because the road is long, it is still not reachable, and the superior planners in the other counties, at the latest. , also arrived yesterday."

"What about the counties in Yangzhou?"

Yuan Sui replied: "The superior planners of Jiujiang and Fuling counties were the first to arrive in Xu County among the superior planners of Yangzhou counties, and arrived four or five days ago; the superior planners of the remaining five counties in Yangzhou, Wu, Danyang, and Lujiang three The commanders of the county have also arrived, and the two counties of Kuaiji and Yuzhang should be on the road because they have not arrived yet.”

However, the seven counties in Yangzhou sent all the officials, which was what Xun Zhen expected.

Not to mention the seven counties of Yangzhou, Jiujiang and Fuling counties, Tang Mao, the prefect of Yuzhang, is a relative of the Xun clan and a party of Xunzhen township, and has already been attached to Xunzhen. Although the prefect of Wu County, Sheng Xian, is not sincere, he is also out of self-preservation. , and had already formed a good relationship with Xunzhen, and Lujiang Lukang always used the honor of the king as the banner, so these three counties will definitely follow the order to send the officials to the court. Among the seven counties, five counties will follow the order, so the rest The two counties of Danyang and Kuaiji, even if they oppose Xunzhen, in order not to lose the righteousness and be caught by others, they can only obey the order.

Xun Zhen nodded and asked again, "Have the high-ranking officials of the various counties in Jingzhou arrived?"

"In Jingzhou, although Yuan Gonggong was obstructed, he did not dare to kill him after all. The superior officer of Nan County had already arrived from Xiangyang; Lv Fengxian did not block, and the superior officer of Jiangxia Prefecture had also arrived; Changsha and other counties had not yet arrived. ."

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "Yuan Gonggong is not too faint! Didn't Lu Fengxian block it?"

"Yeah, Duke Ming, Lu Fengxian not only didn't block, but..." Yuan Sui said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I also sent a 'supervisor'."

Chen Deng, Zao Zhi and the others all laughed when they heard this.

Chen Deng said with a smile: "Ming Gong, I didn't expect that Lu Fengxian would not send officials to the plot. This plan of alienation may not need to be done anymore, it has already been done."

Those who were not politically naive would definitely not do what Lu Bu did. Huang Zu's prefect of Jiangxia was honored by the imperial court, and it was natural to send officials to the court; what qualifications did Lu Bu have to send officials to the court? However, it is inferred that the reason for Lu Bu's actions must be for no other reason than simply wanting to show his loyalty to the court, but it violates the system, which makes people feel ridiculous.

Xun Zhen is really a kind person, she just smiled without saying much about it, and then asked: "Is there any news on the top planners in the three counties of Jizhou, Taiyuan, Hanoi, Nanyang, and Sizhou Guannei?"

Yuan Sui replied: "At present, the superior officials of Jizhou and Nanyang County will not come. Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Gonggong are still the same, saying that the road is cut off by thieves and cannot be used in the court. Hanoi County The senior planner also arrived just yesterday. As for Taiyuan County, since the senior planner from Hedong County has arrived, the senior planner from Taiyuan County should also arrive soon. Jingzhaoyin's top planner has entered Hongnong County and is now heading to Xu County, and there is no news from the top planners of Zuo Fengyi and Right Fufeng."

The high-ranking officials in Jizhou, Nanyang and other places may not come, which is also in Xunzhen's expectation.

If they came, it would be equivalent to agreeing with Xun Zhen's ruling status and authority. How could Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu be reconciled?

However, he said, but heard the meaning of Yuan Sui's words, Zhang Yang and Cao Cao sent a strategist, why is this? Aren't Zhang Yang and Cao Cao from Yuan Shao's party?

Zhang Yang didn't need to say more, he hoped to take advantage of Xun Zhen's potential, and the relationship between Xun Zhen and Yuan Shao originated between Xun Zhen and Yuan Shao.

As for Cao Cao, this is the difference between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

There are two differences, one is strength, and the other is political long-term vision.

In terms of strength, Yuan Shao has the strength. He can despise the imperial court, despise Xun Zhen, and blatantly refuse to send officials to attack him. Cao Cao does not have this strength. The long-term perspective of politics is here, and at the same time, Cao Cao is unwilling to be attached to Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao still has ambitions, so at this time, although he failed to welcome the emperor, he could not break the connection with the court. , - at a critical moment, perhaps the name of being loyal to the imperial court can help him a lot in fighting against Yuan Shao, or in his continued development after him.

Youzhou, Liangzhou, and Yizhou, Xun Zhen did not ask any further questions. There is still no news from these three states, and this is not what Xun Zhen expected.

These prefectures are too far away from Xu County, and they are truly "separated by the road for thieves". They may not even receive the imperial decree. No matter whether their chief officials are loyal to the imperial court or not, it is reasonable that they have not heard back.

Xun Zhen explained to Yuan Sui and said, "You have to pay more attention to this part of the superior planner. No matter where it came from, as long as it arrives in Xu County, it must be settled well. The superior planners in Hedong, Hanoi, Taiyuan and other counties, You can meet each other in my name, and ask them about the specific situation of each county, and what they saw on the road; so that there are some outstanding officials in the counties, and invite me to see them."

The superior officer was the top official in the county, so Guo Tu, the former superior officer in Yingchuan County, was above Xun Zhen, who was the post supervisor at that time, in terms of status and power. Not only are the superior officers most familiar with the conditions of the counties in the county, they are usually the heads of the county magistrates, and they are often from the Guan clan with the right surname of the county. Maybe it will be of some use.

Yuan Sui understood what Xun Zhen meant and respectfully agreed.

Instead of just watching on Tianbian Road, Xun Zhen led Chen Deng and the others, went down to the fields, and went to the soldiers and people in the Tuentian, carefully inspected and inquired, and then turned to other places for inspection.

It wasn't until it was getting late that today's inspection was over, and Xun Zhen called Chen Deng, Zao Zhi and others to accompany him to his house.

When they got home, Xun Zhen set up a banquet to comfort Chen Deng and Zaozhi for their hard work over the past few days.

Xun Zhen also asked Chen Yi to draw up the above table, and reported to Liu Xie the progress of the field, and told Liu Xie that the first land for the field had been allocated, and the soldiers and people of the field had settled in today, and there was no need to say more.

…

Liu Xie also heard about the fact that the superior officials came to Xu County.

Just a few days after the top planners from Hedong County arrived in Xu County, the top planners from Taiyuan County and Jingzhaoyin also arrived in Xu County, and then, the top planners from Changsha and other Jingnan counties arrived one after another. Liu Biao was very happy when the news reached the palace.

He said to Zhong Yao, who was on duty as an attendant, "Yuanchang, many high-ranking officials from the various counties in Jingzhou have arrived!"

Zhong Yao replied with a smile, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Nan, Jiangxia, and Changsha counties need to pass through the places where Yuan Shu and Lu Bu's thieves are. I thought they might not be able to come, but I didn't expect that not only would they come, especially the superior officials of Nan and Jiangxia counties arrived ahead of schedule. It's rare, rare!"

Zhong Yao said: "It is exactly as Your Majesty said, compared with the superior planners in Xu, Qing, Yan, Yu, Yang and other prefectures, the superior planners from the counties in Jingzhou want to come to Xu County, although the distance is not the farthest, but the road , it is indeed much more dangerous. The officials of the superiors of the prefectures can arrive at Xu County on time or even ahead of time, which shows their loyalty to the saints. soothe him."

"When the time comes, I must issue a decree to reward!" Hearing Zhong Yao mentioning Qing, Yang and other states, Liu Xie raised his face halfway, and while recalling, he calculated and said, "Yuanchang, I remember you two days ago. Report to me that the superior officials of Qing and Yang states have not arrived yet except for the four counties of Donglai, Beihai, Kuaiji and Yuzhang, and the rest have already arrived in Xu County, right?”

Zhong Yao said: "Returning to His Majesty's words, this is exactly the case. The superior officials from Xu, Yan, and Yuzhou have already arrived, and those from Qingzhou have not yet arrived from Donglai and Beihai, and those from Yangzhou also have Kuaiji and Yuzhang. The two counties have yet to arrive."

Liu Xie looked a little impatient and said, "When will the senior officials of these four counties arrive?"

"If you go back to your Majesty, the four counties are far away, and Xu County is more than a thousand miles away. Even if you travel all the way fast, it will be difficult to reach within a month. However, it should be almost at Xu County. "

Liu Xie flexed his fingers, muttered to himself, and after a while, he smiled and said happily: "Yuanchang, I have calculated, this time, there must be as many as forty or fifty counties that can come to Xuxian. !"

Zhong Yao smiled and said: "Yes, Your Majesty. Except for Jizhou, Youzhou, Liangzhou, Yizhou, Jiaozhou, and Nanyang County, the top planners of the other counties have either arrived in Xu County, or are on the way, leaving Xu County should not be too far away." After a pause, he added, "Also, Your Majesty, the recipes from all over the country, along with the arrival of the superior officials, have also been presented to the court, and Your Majesty can look at them at any time."

Liu Xie was not interested in Fangwu, although he said that the county and state contributed Fangwu, which was also one of the majesty of the emperor, but Fangwu was a dead thing, and Liu Xie was more interested in it than a living high-ranking official.

Behind these officials are the counties and states of the Han, the vast territory of the Han, and the billions of people of the Han who live in this vast territory. In other words, these high-ranking officials represent the land and people that Liu Xie inherited from his ancestors.

Liu Xie got up from his seat, went down to the hall, and walked around excitedly. Suddenly, a thought came to him. He said to Zhong Yao, "Yuanchang, I want to call the strategist to see me, how about it?"

Zhong Yao stood still, his eyes moved with Liu Xie's figure, and replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, it will be the day of the plan in a while. On the day of the plan, Situ will hold the ceremony of the plan. When the time comes, Your Majesty can go to the Situ Mansion to have a good look at him. Dozens of top officials will follow His Majesty's holy heart, and you can see it at will. With the stupidity of the ministers, it seems that you don't have to rush to recruit the officials for an audience now."

Liu Xie thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Qing Yan is very true. If I call you now, it seems that I am not calm enough, doesn't it?"

Zhong Yao smiled but did not answer.

Liu Xie turned a few steps and was a little worried. He asked Zhong Yao, and said, "Yuanchang, on the day of the plan, all the top planners need to worship Situ first. I know this ceremony, but if at that time, I would personally go there. Look at it, see the strategist, does this fit the story of my Han family?"

Liu Xiezhi came to the throne after Dong Zhuo had already assumed the power of the court. At that time, the country was in chaos, and the Guanzhong princes had already raised their troops. Therefore, Liu Xie has not really experienced a large-scale prefecture-state strategy since he ascended the throne. , He is still not very familiar with the various systems of Shangji and the various stories of the dynasty related to Shangji.

Zhong Yao is forty-five years old this year. In terms of age, he is Liu Xie's father, and he has been with Liu Xie for many years. After all, he has feelings for Liu Xie. He was also quite happy, he stroked his beard and said with a smile, "If you go back to Your Majesty, it's fine!"

"That's good! When the day comes, I'll see it myself!"

Joyful emotions filled Liu Xie's body and mind.

After dinner, when he arrived at Fushou Palace, when he saw Fushou, Liu Xie still walked briskly, with a happy look on his face.

In the past few years, let alone before, Fu Shou had never seen Liu Xie behave like this. After arriving in Xu County, when Liu Xie was so happy, Fu Shou did not see much, so he asked Liu Xie, Said: "I dare to ask Your Majesty, why are you so happy today?"

Liu Xie smiled and said, "Empress! In a few days, I'm going to see the plan."

Fu Shou asked, "Your Majesty, have all the officials arrived?"

Liu Xie said: "Most of the time has come." After a pause, the color of joy was even more intense, and then said, "Empress, do you know? I also received a list from Duke Xun a few days ago. In the list, Xun The public report and I, the farmland policy is progressing very smoothly now, and it will definitely not affect this year's winter wheat cultivation, until next summer and autumn next year, Queen, guess how much grain you can harvest?"

Where did Fu Shou guess? He replied, "Your Majesty, the concubine can't guess."

Liu Xie said excitedly: "Xun Gong said that next year's harvest will reach a million stones! Queen, do you know how many million stones are enough for me to support my troops?"

Empress Fu quietly and tenderly looked at the elated Liu Xie, and asked with a gentle smile, "Your Majesty, how many soldiers are enough to support?"

"Enough to raise 30,000 to 50,000 elite soldiers! Empress, this is just a plot of farmland in Xu County, and it is enough for me to raise so many soldiers. If it is expanded in the future, Empress, calculate how many soldiers I can raise?" Liu Xie stretched out two hands, his fingers stood up, waving exaggeratedly in the air, and said, "Queen, one county is fifty thousand, ten counties are five hundred thousand, and twenty counties are one million!"

Fu Shou was very clever, and immediately understood what Liu Xie meant. Liu Xie was talking about how many troops to raise, but his intention was actually not divorced from the matter. She replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, wait until the Tuentian policy is pushed forward. And Guangzhi, after Your Majesty has acquired a million elite soldiers, those counties and states that will be planned in the future this year, they will definitely not dare to fail to plan at that time!"

This is exactly what Liu Xie meant. He clapped his hands together, clapped a few times, and said, "Those who understand me are the queen of me!" His interest was everywhere, and he wanted to tell Fu Shou that Xun Zhen was going to attack Yuan Shu. He suddenly remembered that when Xun Zhen told him about this, he warned him more, telling him that "if the minister is not secretive, he will lose his life, and if the ruler is not secretive, he will lose his country." , then swallowed the words again, but his excitement needed to be expressed. He was still in the small hall during the day, and he was walking around in Fushou's palace again. He said, "Queen, you are right, Those who didn't come to the game this year, UU reading www.uukanshu.com I will make them dare not come sooner or later! Empress, do you know? The day when all the high-ranking officials of the county and country come to the game will be the rejuvenation of my big man. , the day when it has been realized by me!"

Fu Shou was a little worried and said, "But Your Majesty, the concubine heard from His Majesty before that, doesn't it seem that Taiwei Yang Biao and other ministers are quite opposed to this policy of chariots and horses?"

Liu Xie said: "Dong Cheng put on a watch the day before yesterday, saying that during this period of time, there had been a lot of fights between the soldiers, the people and the local people in the field, which caused a commotion among the local people, so he said that the field should be stopped as soon as possible. General discussion! Even if there are some conflicts and disputes, I believe that Duke Xun can handle them well, but how can I stop the farmland because of this, which will affect my great cause of reviving the great Han! Although the Queen, Yang Biao, etc. are all loyal ministers, but From my point of view, this time they oppose the settlement of fields, but they are wrong."

Fu Shou was about the same age as Liu Xie, but she was only fourteen or fifteen years old. She was still a young girl. Although she was already a woman, she still looked immature. She sighed because of Liu Xie's support for Xun Zhen. Her little face was flushed. , praised: "Your Majesty, Che Qi is really a capable and loyal minister!"

"Yeah, Duke Xun is really a capable minister, and he is really my loyal minister! I really regret that I didn't get the prime minister earlier."

Tuntian and Shangji go hand in hand.

Suddenly, it was the end of September, and it was October.

On this day, the plan officially started, and the ceremony was held in the Situ Mansion. Liu Xie, under the protection of Zhong Yao and other close officials, went to see it in person.
