The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 541 Volume 7 The Dignity of the Han Nobles

Chapter 541 Volume The Dignity of the Han Nobles

"From the Tang, Yu, and Zhou dynasties, when states were established, the emperor and the princes divided the rule."

The Han Dynasty meeting.

When everyone heard the emperor say this himself, they were very excited!
"Now, the Minister of the Central Secretariat, Jia Xu, has been specially favored and entrusted with important tasks. He has humbled himself to seek talents and served the country wholeheartedly. Therefore, he has been given the important position of assistant to the government by virtue of his favor. The Liang Kingdom has been specially established and granted the title of a fiefdom!"

Countless eyes looked at Jia Xu.

However, Jia Xu's expression and demeanor remained calm, as if nothing big had happened, and he then thanked the emperor.

"However, Wenhe is an important minister of the country and should not be moved lightly. We can follow the example of Duke Zhao."

After King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he granted Duke Zhao Ji Shi the title of Duke of Ji.

Later, because Zhao Gong wanted to assist the royal family, he ordered his eldest son Ji Ke to go to the fiefdom and manage Ji.

Now that the emperor treats Jia Xu in this way, it can be said that he is very kind to the country!
Jia Xu's eldest son, Jia Mu, had passed the imperial examination and was assigned by Jia Xu himself to become a county official in a desolate and remote place.

It was only when he was recalled this time that his superiors and colleagues learned that he was the son of Jia Xu and was praised by local scholars.

Now that Jia Mu has been awarded a title and received a reward, his expression is calm, just like his father Jia Xu. It is impossible to tell whether he is happy or angry, and it is obvious that he has a stable personality.

"Jia Mu, your father's fiefdom of Liang State is in the former Wusun Yili land."

"When you go to Liang, you should follow Ji Ke's example and protect the country and its people. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

The emperor's advice was extremely obscure.

Ji Ke, the eldest son of Duke Zhao, was granted the title of King of Yan. However, because the roads were blocked by Zhongshan Kingdom and barbarians, he was unable to communicate with the Central Plains for hundreds of years.

But the State of Yan still stood firm in the north, and during the Warring States Period it had famous generals like Qin Kai who defeated the Donghu and expanded the territory by thousands of miles!

Therefore, when Jia Mu went to Liang State, development was important, but the most important thing was to build up the military, so as to preserve the country and prevent its land from being annexed by surrounding barbarian countries such as Wusun.

"When you go to the vassal state, you can take the local clansmen with you when you pass by your hometown Guzang."

The local clans were also taken away to the vassal state.

This is almost another version of the "Tomb City System".

During the pre-Han period, local powerful families from Guandong were relocated to Guanzhong every few years in order to strengthen the trunk and weaken the branches and prevent the local powerful families from becoming too powerful.

The current feudal system also allows these meritorious officials to take their clans with them, rather than staying in the local area and using their reputation as nobles to commit crimes.

After all, what happened to the Dong family in Lintao back then is still vivid in our minds.

As for Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Lu Bu, Niu Fu... Liu Xie was confident that these nobles around him would not use their power to bully men and women.

But as for their families... Liu Xie always had reservations and did not trust them very much.

After they were granted their own countries, they could take all their clans with them, thus reducing the possibility of them committing crimes in the local area.

Same as "Sanguan".

Liu Xie was not interested in killing people, especially his own family members.

What he is more interested in is still adjusting the distribution so that the right people and resources go to the right places.

If the clans of these nobles stayed in the local area, they would likely become a nuisance.

But if they were sent to other countries to build their own countries, they would become heroes who have blazed new trails for the Chinese nation!

Just like the wealthy people who have become officials nowadays, they can use the money in their hands to continue to improve technology and open up business routes, instead of issuing agricultural loans and annexing land as usual, which will cause resentment from heaven and people.

The departure of these people will also gradually create more spare wealth in the local area and continuously breed new talents.

Ask the canal how clear it is, because there is a source of living water.

Now Liu Xie is still unable to completely transform the pond of the Han Dynasty into a sea that can accommodate all rivers, but he can still try his best to make the water flow.

Jammu continued to thank him.

"I will send scholars from the Medical University and the Agricultural and Industrial University to accompany you and stay for five years to help you manage your kingdom."

"In addition, the country will also prepare for you the curved plow, iron tools and other items."

"Once you are in the Western Regions, if anything happens, you can send a letter to the Western Regions Protectorate to ask for help." Liu Xie said that he would not be as ungentlemanly as the Zhou royal family, who would assign you a few dozen people, a piece of land, and then tell you to be your vassal...

If we can help, we will try our best to help them so that they can have enough initial savings to fight against the outside world.

But what happens next will depend on themselves.

When Jia Mu heard that the emperor was willing to grant these things, especially that he was willing to give him two of the precious scholars in the two universities, he finally laughed happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Obviously, Jia Mu's ability to cultivate his qi is not as good as that of his father Jia Xu.

When the emperor saw Jia Mu's smile, he also smiled with relief.

"When you arrive in Jincheng, don't rush to the west, but go to the Yong Kingdom in the south to have a look."

"Although Yong State is blessed by natural advantages, it still has its merits and should be emulated and learned from."

In terms of the location of the fiefdom, no one can compare to Yong, the fiefdom of Dong Zhuo.

After all, although the Hehuang Valley is not a traditional Han area, it is really close to Chang'an! Coupled with the discovery of gold mines, it does not require any policies to attract a large number of Han people to migrate there.

However, regarding the promulgation of some government decrees, including getting along with local indigenous peoples, the Yong State did have relevant experience, which future generations could follow suit.

Faced with the emperor's almost hands-on teaching, Jia Mu expressed his gratitude again.

"Go, don't be reluctant to leave your father."

"You should go and build up the country first. When your father comes there in the future, he will have a place to live in his old age. Don't let him down."

"I understand..."

……

Inside the Xuanshi Hall, other generals and officials were watching this scene, and they were obviously eager to try.

Make great contributions and establish a state.

Then he would send his descendants to govern the country, and once he left office, he would return home to enjoy his retirement...

The emperor's words also gave all the heroes of the Han Dynasty a reassurance!

From now on, the incident of putting away the bow after all the birds have been killed will no longer happen in the Han Dynasty.

The fiefdoms granted to them were their last resort.

Even if one day in the future they are really suspected by some emperor, or if they accidentally lose their power, they still have a real fiefdom to live out their retirement and serve as a retreat.

Such treatment has already given these nobles enough dignity!

The old men in the court, such as Liu Biao and Yang Biao, all looked at Jia Xu with envy.

However, the middle-aged and young generation, such as Xun Yu and Zhong Yao, had no scruples at all and no longer worried about being abandoned by the emperor in the future.

The youngest Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang were already thinking about where their fiefdoms would be in the future...

"good."

At this moment, Liu Xie looked at the ministers of the Han Dynasty, especially at Niu Fu, Lu Bu and other pillars of the country.

"The world is so big that it is not limited to the Western Regions."

"The sealed-off countries are not limited to the Western Regions either."

"You are in your prime, you should make achievements and find land for your future kingdom!"

This is no longer a hint.

This is absolutely explicit!
A group of military generals came out one after another——

"I am willing to go through fire and water for the Han Dynasty!"

The eyes of the civil officials were also burning with enthusiasm. It was the first time they found these military generals so pleasing to the eye.

After all, the future of my kingdom depends entirely on them!
