Chapter 2762 Key spare tire
Before Kong Rong died, many people seemed to think that Kong Rong was very important, saying that Kong Rong was a banner, the glory of the great man, and the representative of the scripture family of the Shandong gentry. The glory of the family is still so much glory, no more, no less, the family of scriptures in Shandong still welcomes the sunrise and sends the sunset away every day, and eats and drinks also does not fall behind.
The words of the banner are even more ridiculous. Who doesn't know that flags are all man-made? If you want a new flag, isn't that a one-sentence thing?
Therefore, Kong Rong's death was like a spray of blood mist. Although the spray was very beautiful, it then fell down. The people who should rush up and hold the steamed buns stained with blood are still a group of black and white people.
When distributing benefits, the humility advocated by Confucius is gone.
In the eyes of different people, there are often different impressions. For example, in the eyes of literati, Kong Rong may be the image of a drunken madman, but in the eyes of ordinary people, Kong Rong is often used as an example to educate children.
So what is Kong Rong in the eyes of the political elite?
There are many scriptures handed down by Kong Rong's family, but Kong Rong himself mainly studied "Spring and Autumn".
Strictly speaking, it is "Yanshi Chunqiu".
And "Yanshi Chunqiu" belongs to the Gongyang school.
Yan family refers to Yan Pengzu, this school is inherited from Dong Zhongshu's faction.
The Yan School has its own views on the Spring and Autumn Period. Among them, the school believes that the most important righteousness of the "Spring and Autumn Annals" is that worshiping the father should not be in the house of the concubine; worshiping the king should not be in the house of the servant; Home.
So Cao Cao wanted to kill Kong Rong in the end. It is already obvious what this means.
In history, when Cao Cao killed Kong Rong, the time node was much later, because at that time in history, Cao Cao and Kong Rong could still be reconciled.
Kong Rong actually knew Cao Cao very early. At the beginning, Kong Rong was famous all over the world. As the twentieth descendant of Confucius, he can be said to be the head of the Qingliu, while Cao Cao was degraded and degraded by others. The kind of pickled stuff. So at this time, Cao Cao admired Kong Rong.
Later, Kong Rong was recruited by He Jin, and successively served as the subordinate of the general, the servant of the censor, and the commander of Sikong. At this point in time, although Kong Rong and Cao Cao were officials in the same dynasty, Cao Cao could only stand on the edge, like an ant, watching Kong Rong shine among the crowd.
When the two began to have some intersections, it should be when they were fighting against Dong.
Cao Cao's clear-cut anti-Dong was the only one among the Shandong princes who had their own ghosts at that time. Perhaps at this time, Kong Rong noticed Cao Cao and praised Cao Cao's behavior of supporting the royal family until Cao Cao welcomed him. After the emperor, it was the honeymoon period for the two of them. During this honeymoon period, Kong Rong praised Cao Cao a lot, but as Cao Cao controlled the emperor and manipulated power, the two soon had disagreements.
Finally, tragedy struck.
The originally dazzling splendor fell, leaving only a little dust.
In the current situation, the relationship between Cao Cao and Kong Rong has deteriorated more rapidly. The biggest reason is of course Fei Qian in Guanzhong...
Fei Qian occupied the entire Guanzhong, Bingzhou and Xiliang, so of course Cao Cao didn't spend time and energy on it, so he had more time to deal with internal challenges.
You must know that in history, when Cao Cao fought in Bingzhou, moved to Guanzhong, Hanzhong and other places, he also needed a relatively stable rear, so even if he had any opinions on the people in the rear, he could only wait for him to go back. Deal with it, and in many cases, you can bear it as long as you can. After the war is over, it may be because of the development of some fronts that the previous conflicts can only be shelved again.
But now, under the pressure given by Fei Qian, the problems Cao Cao faced became more intense and the contradictions became more prominent. Naturally, the internal conflicts and the distribution of benefits were dealt with earlier, so that Kong Rong and others died. The time naturally moved forward a lot.
Of course, the most fundamental reason is that the area where Cao Cao collects taxes is smaller than in history, but the items of expenditure are not less at all, even because Fei Qian opened up the business roads in the Western Regions, so that more money is spent on luxury goods , which led to the intensification of conflicts at the entire Shandong gentry level.
Cao Cao needs more money for the military, for developing industries, and for infrastructure construction, but for those middle-level landlords and gentry in Shandong, every time Cao Cao adds money, they use it to exploit ordinary people best chance. What Cao Cao originally wanted was to let these landlords and gentry with certain assets spend part of their money on local people's livelihood, military and water conservancy, etc., but these guys would cry and shout that they had no money, and at the same time spend a lot of money. Even if Cao Cao oppresses and forces them to pay more money, they will immediately find a way to pass it on to ordinary people, or get it back in other ways.
Smuggling, hoarding, etc. by local gentry made life miserable for ordinary Guishou in Shandong. Cao Cao said again and again not to increase the burden on ordinary people, not to increase taxes and fees to ordinary people, but to ask these landlords and squires to use their savings to tide over the difficulties together, but the landlords and squires stared. Why do you say in unison?
My father, my grandfather, my great-grandfather and so on made money with their own abilities, so why should they take it out to tide over the difficulties together?
Cao Cao's eyes are round, although his eyes are not too big, you can't see them, Guanzhong Juetian system is the first, if Fei Qian really comes to Shandong, you can still be a little bit better? In order to resist Guanzhong, everyone should first control their own greed, put an end to luxury goods, start from themselves, and be a thrifty and simple man with a good youth.
The Jue Tian system has been implemented in Beidi Guanzhong, and it is also being carried out in Longyou Hanzhong and Sichuan and Shu. Those soldiers and generals who have gained meritorious service in various wars in the early stage have become the first under Fei Qian's command to enjoy the Jue Tian system. Tian treated people, and these people became the most staunch supporters of Fiqian, and also built a huge grassroots support for Fiqian reform.
Because Juetian enjoys a more favorable tax than ordinary land acres, these Juetians will never think about underreporting and paying less. When paying taxes, it is more worry-free than collecting ordinary acres of land, and there is no need to go through any local gentry as a transfer.
At the same time, some administrative departments set up by Fei Qian invaded the power of the local gentry, so that the decrees of Xishang Shutai began to gradually pass inspections, and spread to the fields through bachelors of agriculture, bachelors of engineering, etc. The power of the country gentry on the territory under Qian's command has shrunk, which has strengthened the court's control over the place.
This is what Cao Cao saw and wanted, and he was so greedy.
However, the local gentry in Shandong did not take it seriously. They pointed out the biggest difference between Shandong and Shanxi, saying that from Heluo to Guanzhong, from Beidi to Sichuan and Sichuan, they are all sparsely populated and underpopulated areas. There are not many gentry, and there are many lands without owners.
Even in places with a higher population density, because of the war, some territories have changed hands, or some people have been eliminated on the wrong team. Therefore, there is no obstacle to the implementation of the Juetian system in these places, and there will be no What's the problem? It's like Fei Qian rewarded the soldiers of the military academy with the land that he could have directly taken into his arms. Cao Cao, why do you study hard?
Cao Cao said: We must be diligent and thrifty, and we must not be extravagant and wasteful. Has Guan Zhongfei banned official eating, drinking and holding public banquets?
Shandong squire responded: Guanzhong is frugal because they have no money! Like me in Dashan, how embarrassing is it that there are not eight plates for a meal? Besides, the saved money can't fall into my pocket, so it won't be spent in vain.
Cao Cao also said: We must pay attention to infrastructure construction, form an effective industrial chain, build water conservancy and dredging roads, and strengthen local investment.
Shandong squire responded: Lao Cao does not pay for road construction? Don't worry about paying for it, it needs to be repaired anyway. You see, I dig the road here three times a year, how well it is repaired!
Cao Cao: mmp
Shandong Squire: (#¬¬¬)
Under such circumstances, Lao Cao's involvement with Kong Rong is not to say that Lao Cao hates Kong Rong, but that Cao Cao is killing chickens and monkeys. He hopes that through this method, the local gentry of Shandong gentry can understand the stakes .
Obviously, this method has indeed achieved certain results so far. Cui Yan expressed his willingness to have further exchanges and communications with Cao Cao, but whether these exchanges and communications are liquid or solid depends on what happens next. At the same time, Yingchuan in Xu County didn't seem to have too strong a reaction against Cao Cao's behavior. After all, Kong Rong was from Lu, not Yingchuan. Can't jump up.
Everything seems to be in Cao Cao's plan...
At least Cao Pi thinks so at the moment.
Cao Pi was a little proud. After all, for him, being able to preside over the meeting of the Prime Minister's Mansion instead of his father, even if everyone knew what to do, and Cao Pi didn't need to waste his brains, it was enough to make Cao Pi feel very happy. comfortable.
After all, once a word is spoken, all laws follow, and with a wave of hand, the feeling of the head falling to the ground is really wonderful!
Under such emotions, dopamine surged, making Cao Pi feel as if he couldn't help shivering every time he recalled the scene at that time...
Man, it should be so!
But his state was soon discovered by his mother.
Mrs. Bian looked at Cao Pi coldly, with a rather unkind expression on her face.
Cao Pi didn't react at first, but after Cao Zhi kicked him secretly, Cao Pi realized that there was something wrong with Mrs. Bian's expression.
"what. Mother..." Cao Pi lowered his head, "Mother, this is..."
『Are you proud? Madam Bian smiled, her smile was a bit cold, "You feel very proud that you ordered the killing?" 』
Cao Pi's body tightened, "This...mother is joking, this...baby, how can I be proud of you..."
『Then you laugh foolishly from the sidelines if you have nothing to do, what do you think about? Madam Bian unceremoniously exposed Cao Pi, "Presiding over the prime minister's affairs on behalf of your father makes you feel that you have the power in your hands and everything in the world is under your control?" 』
『Baby...』 Cao Pi didn't know what to say, 『Boy, baby don't dare...don't dare...」
『You...you didn’t think much about it, why did your father ask you to preside over this matter? ’ Mrs. Bian asked.
"what? 』Cao Pi froze for a moment. Isn't it because Cao Cao can't come back? So let him act as an agent.
But Cao Pi soon realized that the so-called failure to come back was just an excuse.
If Cao Cao can't come back in time, can't he delay for two days? Does Kong Rong die two days earlier or two days later, does it make much difference? Or simply Cao Cao ordered directly, there is no need to discuss the matter at all, wouldn't it be over? Is it possible that the whole of the Prime Minister's Mansion can say more? Or could Kong Rong not be killed without a meeting?
After Mrs. Bian woke up, Cao Pi suddenly discovered many problems, and these problems were obviously not thought of by him before.
Many questions came one after another, making Cao Pi's face turn pale.
Because in the face of these problems, although Cao Pi has not been able to think thoroughly, he instinctively feels that something is not good, and it is not the result of being as proud as he was before. The things contained in it may be...
"I got it? ’ Mrs. Bian asked.
Cao Pi twitched the corners of his mouth, "Mother...baby..."
『Oh, now I know how to call you mother? ’ Mrs. Bian said unceremoniously, ‘Go ahead and be proud! 』
Cao Pi fell to his knees with a plop, "The child is wrong, please punish the mother." 』
Madam Bian ignored Cao Pi, but waved to Cao Zhi and Cao Chong who were on the side, "Zhi'er, take Chong'er to the side to play." 』
Cao Zhi stood up a little disgruntled, coughed pretendingly, bowed his hands to Mrs. Bian, and dragged out his tone, "I obey, my lord~" Oh, it's a pity that the good show won't end.
Don't care how talented Cao Zhi was in history, but now he is just a child. Among children, watching their parents beating and scolding their brothers, some feel empathy, and some gloat. Uh, there may be more gloats. After all, Cao Zhi could tell that Mrs. Bian didn't really want to kill Cao Pi, but wanted to scold Cao Pi. Cao Zhi felt a pity that he couldn't watch from the sidelines.
Cao Zhi led Cao Chong and turned around the corridor. Cao Chong suddenly said to Cao Zhi: "My brother is going to be in trouble." 』
"what? ”Cao Zhi was stunned for a moment, “What did you say? At most, my lord mother just scolded me. 』
Cao Chong said: "No, I'm not talking about my mother. 』
『Then you mean Father? ’ Cao Zhi asked.
Cao Chong shook his head, "Why? I mean people outside of the Cao family... After all, we are all a family, and we have to be wary of outsiders, aren't we? 』
Cao Zhi was shocked, "Who told you this...?" Who taught you to say it? 』
Cao Chong snorted disdainfully, "You still need others to teach you? Do you think I'm the second brother? Do you still want to throw me to the nanny, and then you sneak back to listen? I think you'd better not do this, your mother will be upset. 』
『You…』 Cao Zhi was speechless for a moment.
Cao Chong raised his head slightly, looked at Cao Zhi, "You want to ask me why I know?" Because this is the way to the nurse's side. 』
『…』Cao Zhi suddenly didn’t want to talk to Cao Chong anymore.
Children's growth is actually related to the family environment.
Cao Ang's growth environment was in the midst of war, he followed his father Cao Cao all the way to the north and south, and grew up in the military camp, so Cao Ang naturally had many special features that Cao's Xiahou generals liked, because Cao Ang's body The special system is exactly what they influenced Cao Ang's growth process.
Cao Pi’s growth environment is different from Cao Ang’s. He was a spare tire from the beginning. Normally, how high can the requirements for the spare tire be? Usually, I just take a look at it to see if the air pressure is enough. If it is not enough, I will hit it a little bit, and then throw it to the corner. I don’t care too much until one day Cao Ang has a flat tire, and then I find that Cao Pi’s spare tire is smaller than everything. No. In addition to being able to barely fit on it, the width of the tire is narrower, and the wheel hub of the tire is also a cheaper iron product...
Speaking of which, Cao Zhi is a jack?
Cao Chong is the handle of the jack?
In fact, the difference is not much.
After Cao Zhi was born, Mrs. Bian's status has gradually improved. She has higher requirements for family quality and cultural education than Cao Pi did at that time. Therefore, whether it is enlightenment resources or book collection, Cao Zhi must It is better than that time in Cao Pi.
Cao Chong's material conditions are better than Cao Zhi's. Clothes and fine food are already the most basic standard of living for the Cao family. With sufficient nutrition, Cao Chong is smarter than children of the same age, which means he has a material foundation. At least from the day Cao Chong landed, he didn't have to worry about whether he would be hungry or cold.
At the same time, the living conditions of Mrs. Bian and others have also become more stable from the running of the military army, and the matters they are in contact with daily have also shifted from military strategy to internal affairs. It is normal to want to be more politically astute. After all, Cao Chong has been exposed to these things since he was a child. Cao Chong would definitely not be able to command military operations, but in terms of internal affairs and personnel, it is clear that Cao Chong has his own uniqueness and the ability to grasp the key points of the problem.
As a backup, Cao Pi obviously failed to grasp the key points of the current problem. He knelt in the hall with a sad face, accepting Mrs. Bian's scolding, "use more brains!" How can you be so unthinking? What about your brain? 』
