Chapter 568
"Si Zhi has a far-sighted vision. From Luoyang to Dunhuang, it is thousands of miles away. When the government orders are issued, it has turned over many moves. The control is weakened. If a big city emerges in the northwest, it can bring great benefits to the Han Dynasty. It is just that all the civil and military affairs in the northwest are entrusted with one person, and there will be no trouble in the future, and there will be great trouble in the future."
Liu Fan knew that Wuwei began to develop tremendously since the cold weather, and at that time, the Central Plains had been facing war and chaos, but instead it was a remote place to live in peace.
Until the Tang Dynasty, Xiliang was extremely prosperous. It was the third largest city in the world, the military and political center and economic and cultural center in the northwest.
The Wuwei area in Liangzhou is flat and vast, and it is the largest accumulated plain in Hexi. The Liangzhou Zhengzhong of Yangxiong of the Western Han Dynasty said, "Every time in King Ji, he often loses his temper. God is restless and ordered the Han to be Liang."
"The people are scattered on the ground, the mulberry trees are thick", "cars and horses intersect, and the sun is scattered" is a true portrayal of the Wuwei of the Tang Dynasty.
Liu Fan felt that as Xun Yu said, building a big city in the western border could serve as a starting point for expedition to the Western Regions and deter Central Asia.
"Military and political separation, mutual restraint, and officials streamline. If any other problems can arise, it means another chaotic world is coming."
Xun Yu said to Liu Fan bluntly.
"Good. If all the civil and military officials in the court are as brave as Wenruo, they will dare to speak, and they will focus on the Han Dynasty. Why do I worry?"
Liu Fan adopted Xun Yu's opinion, but this had to wait until Guanlong was pacified.
Xun Yu bowed to Liu Fan and then returned to his seat.
"Today's court meeting, sending troops to pacify Guanlong is one of them. There is another thing that I am very puzzled and I want to ask you."
Liu Fan sat down again and looked around the civil and military officials.
No one responded to Liu Fan's words, Liu Fan pondered for a moment and said, "Can you all get some profits in Hedong's salt? "
Liu Fan's words made many ministers confused and made some people afraid.
The minister who is unknown cannot speak, and the minister who is afraid in his heart dares not speak.
"What official position are Taichang Yu and the Evangelist Pushe? Yanchi has been owned by the country since ancient times. Can you intervene? What is the Pei family in Hedong and Liu family? I think you don't want to live anymore."
Liu Fanyi said sternly.
Taichang Yu was the highest subordinate of Taichang, one of the nine ministers. The eunuch Pushe was the subordinate of Guangluxun.
As soon as Liu Fan finished speaking, the two officials quickly stood up and bowed to Liu Fan: "The Prime Minister sent the Yanchi official camp to cut off the lifeline of the Hedong clan. We just asked the Prime Minister to cancel the Yanchi official camp, and did not accept bribes privately. We are for the public and not for the private life!"
"For two ignorant people, they can help the salt of the pond spread throughout the world. Only by having taxes can you be rich to rival the country. The official camp of the salt pond is to make profits for the country. Since the two are considering the Hedong clans, then go and be their disciples! The court has no money and food, so they can't afford you!"
Liu Fan waved his hand and signaled the two to leave.
The Evangelists Pushe and Taichang Yu stood awkwardly, not knowing what to do. Could it be that their ending will be the same as Wang Gui?
"Did you forget about the matter that Su Zhang, the prefect of Jizhou, governed Qinghe Prefect's statement in accordance with the law? Su Zhang and Chan Shu have been friends for many years. What is my relationship with you?"
Seeing that the two of them were ignorant, Liu Fan stared at them and said.
The eunuchs Pushe and Taichang Yu were frightened, so they quickly took off their seal and put them in front of Liu Fan, leaving the court.
Two more ministers were dismissed from office, and all civil and military officials were shocked.
I thought Liu Fan held a court meeting today to discuss going to Guanlong. Unexpectedly, it was the court officials who took action.
"After our army pacified Shangdang, the generals sent several letters from Zhang Yang's mansion. The content of this letter surprised me very much. It turned out that it was you who gave Zhang Yang the courage to resist Zhang Yang for so long. But I don't understand why you interfered with it when I pacified Shanxi? Later I thought about it. This kind of behavior is no different from rebellion. Zhang Yi, the prefect of Taiyuan, was not very talented and lacked integrity and ability. A mediocre person who dared to resist my heroic cavalry. I see his confidence in you."
Liu Fan waved his hand and the guards in the hall presented several letters. Liu Fan asked the guards to hand the letters to the ministers and ministers.
When the ministers and ministers passed on each other, they all felt uncomfortable.
In black and white, even the three ministers and nine ministers cannot afford to be held.
From the lines, we can see that these letters come from ministers in the court, and they are court officials with a rank of two thousand stones.
However, if the signature is not named, it means there is no conclusive evidence. Even if Liu Fan is suspicious, he cannot arbitrarily punish the ministers and ministers.
"I will rescue you from Dong Zhuo so that you can have food and clothing. I am a descendant of Guangwu, and the mountains and rivers are broken. I stand up with my sword. I work hard day and night in the country, and never slackened. I don't want to see that the outside world is not settled, but the inside is in chaos. If this happens again, I will no longer show mercy."
Liu Fan said deeply to the civil and military officials.
"I think many people will say that I will dominate the court, not establish the emperor, or not give power to ministers and ministers. But you disappoint me so, how can I use you? The First Emperor unified China and Emperor Gaozu established a nation. Four hundred years ago, Emperor Gaozu pacified the world and left the blessings to twenty-four generations, making the Han people deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is really not easy for everyone to call themselves Han people. Today, you cannot add glory to the ancestors' rules, but instead ignore the hard work of Emperor Gaozu in taking the world, borrowing people at will, and losing power to the state, so that ordinary villains who punished the rest of the people would cruelly abuse the people. I don't want to see such things again. In the troubled times, a wise ruler must appear. Who can recommend Guangwu to sit in that position? If there is no Guangwu, I will assume the responsibility of Guangwu. After the world is pacified, I will ask an Emperor Wen."
Liu Fan pointed to the emperor's seat and said to the civil and military officials.
All civil and military officials sat upright, with different ideas, but they all remained silent.
"When the Qin Dynasty was about to perish, those who were upright and unwilling to advise were often killed, while those who flattered were often rewarded. Good words and loyal ministers dare not say that the fate of the country was from the mouths of those who harmed others. I did not target any minister, but what I asked was all for the Han Dynasty."
Liu Fan sat motionlessly, his tone very calm.
"The Prime Minister is working hard on the world and governing the world, and you can see it. The Prime Minister is cautious, but he is slandered by villains. He can't do it, but he talks about others. I really feel sad for these people!"
The Grand Marshal Huang Wan attached the words of Liu Fan.
"I did not intend to suppress the aristocratic families, but most of them became powerful and had bad behavior. You said you were a Han minister, but in my eyes, there was no difference in this rebellion. Qin Shihuang sent the six kingdoms to pass through the four seas and aristocrats of the six kingdoms to obey under the Qin army. The families of each county, I hope to be able to be polite, exiled if they were misdemeanors, and exiled if they were serious, and the powerful would be destroyed. The Dukes regarded me as a madman from Hedong and were ignorant of the great righteousness. Even if they were ridiculed by the people of the world, I would also think of working for the country and the people. This time I went to Guanlong, and I would leave 20,000 cavalry and 20,000 elite soldiers in Henan, and the military power would be handed over to the Shangshu Ling. I think there is nothing that cannot be solved with these 40,000 soldiers, plus the 20,000 soldiers in the eastern part of Sili and more than 10,000 cavalry in Yingchuan."
Liu Fan gave the final warning to all officials in words.
