"Abolition of Shili Mu? So soon?"

When the news reached Lingling County, Qin Yu was stunned.

If he remembers correctly.

The abolition of Shili Mu happened in 188 years...

It is still only 187, although it is not far away from 188, but Qin Yu was slightly surprised that it happened so suddenly.

have to say.

Liu Yan is really a bad guy.

As a Taichang, he always boasted about Liu Hong.

Your Majesty, look, there is chaos and rebellions everywhere now. Is this the sin of our old Liu family ourselves?

That's obviously impossible.

The reason why these things happened has nothing to do with our old Liu family. The responsibility basically belongs to those families who act recklessly.

Nowadays, the aristocratic family is so powerful that it is not easy for us to get rid of them.

And we still rely on them to help us with many things.

It's even more impossible to break off this relationship just like that.

But Your Majesty, you have to think about it carefully.

Every time you go out to quell rebellion, you end up spending all the money and food you have worked so hard to save, Your Majesty.

Our old Liu family wiped their butts, and each of them made a lot of money. Aren't we at a huge loss?

When Liu Hong heard this, he immediately slapped his thigh and agreed.

What Liu Yan said is correct.

There have been many incidents of counterinsurgency and bandit suppression in recent years.

All the money for the whole day was taken out of his West Garden.

I originally wanted to build a few more yards, but now I have no idea.

When I think about the troubles caused by those wealthy families who are messing around outside, I end up having to wipe their butts myself.

Liu Hong felt aggrieved in his heart.

Then Liu Yan struck while the iron was hot and expressed his thoughts.

He said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, counterinsurgency is not that difficult."

"How capable are ordinary people of causing so much turmoil?"

"Actually, the most fundamental reason is that the price we spent in countering the rebellion was too high."

"Every time we have to mobilize troops from the third auxiliary, there is no benefit after the battle is over."

"How much food and salary will be consumed just on the way back and forth?"

"Instead of doing this, it is better to solve the problem directly from the root cause. Nowadays, the power in the hands of the prefects and governors is not enough when dealing with these rebellions."

"It is simply impossible for them to deal with the powerful local families."

"In this case, we might as well re-establish the official position of Zhou Mu and let them have greater rights than the governor and county governor."

"It's just that the candidates for these state pastors must choose clan relatives or important ministers who can be trusted. Only these people will really think about you, Your Majesty, and will really make efforts to solve those rebellions, and even solve those aristocratic families."

While Liu Hong was a little moved, he was also a little worried.

However, this position of Zhou Mu has not happened before.

Now according to Liu Yan.

The rights given are indeed a bit too great.

But it’s just like what Liu Yan said.

If there is no official position that can oversee all political and military affairs at the local level, one person can develop everything arbitrarily.

It is impossible to suppress those aristocratic families.

There will always be people who stand up to speak against you and try to undermine you.

Liu Hong already hated this kind of thing.

So after thinking about it for a long time.

Liu Hong finally agreed.

The main thing is that there is really no other way.

However, it was impossible for him to directly give away all the positions of Zhou Mu from the beginning.

Moreover, the positions given to the state pastors were also in places where rebellions often occurred and where the central court was beyond the reach of the central government.

When Liu Yan heard that Liu Hong seemed to be loose-spoken, he felt secretly happy.

He didn't say much on the matter.

He resigned directly.

No matter what, he must maintain some proper reserve on the surface.

And he is too common.

Let’s talk about the ranking of relatives among the clansmen of the Han Dynasty.

There is no doubt that he, Liu Yan, is at the top.

If Liu Hong really wanted to send people to govern the place.

Then Liu Yan will definitely be on the list.

Liu Yan was quite convinced of this.

At this time, he showed that he didn't have any thoughts about the position of Zhou Mu, but instead he was thinking about Liu Hong.

In fact.

Since that day.

Liu Yan had already started to do some activities for himself behind his back.

Liu Yan is a smart man, and a smart man with great ambitions.

From the time when Liu Hong inherited the throne, Liu Yan had no good impression of Liu Hong.

From that time on.

A thought often appeared in his mind.

Why can Liu Hong sit on the throne but Liu Yan can't?

Facts prove.

Liu Hong's ability is indeed much worse than Liu Yan.

At least, Liu Hong is really not that good at controlling beauty.

Liu Hong's character is really a bit outrageous.

He simply has clear likes and dislikes.

But it's too clear.

When you trust someone, you want all their trust to be given to you.

When you don't trust a person, no matter how you look at him, you will think he is a traitor.

This can also be seen from his previous decisions.

He doted on the eunuchs, so he was able to go so far as to say that Chang Shi was his parent.

And he didn't have much trust in the scholars themselves, and under the instigation of these eunuchs, the two disasters caused by party imprisonment were directly killed by the scholars.

Moreover, when he killed the scholars at that time, anyone who dared to speak for these scholars would inevitably die.

If the Yellow Turban Rebellion hadn't been so violent in the first place.

Liu Hong's inherent distrust of scholars made him feel that these people were very likely to be forced to join the Yellow Turban bandits and oppose him.

He really doesn't have much confidence that he can defeat the Yellow Turbans and the power of the scholars.

As a last resort, he ordered the lifting of party imprisonment.

If this were not the case, he felt that he could continue to be imprisoned by this party until his death.

But it's precisely because of his temperament.

That's why Qin Yu could live so comfortably under his hands.

Although Qin Yu is now just a Lingling County Governor.
