What Qiao Zhou did in history is indeed shameful.
However, it is undeniable that Qiao Zhou represents the interests of the local Yizhou aristocratic families. All his words and deeds are actually manifestations of the interests of the local Yizhou aristocratic families.
Whether it was "Qiu Guo Lun" or urging Liu Chan to surrender, it was all based on the interests of the Yizhou family.
Qiao Zhou is just a spokesperson who has been pushed to the forefront by the Yizhou family. It is no longer important whether his character is good or not. Whether he can speak for the Yizhou family is the basis of his survival.
But now, Qiao Zhou is worried.
The Ji Han in this time and space is not the Ji Han who fought to the end in history and even knocked out the coffin board. The current Ji Han is in full swing, and he can fully see the future of once again pacifying the world and realizing Sanxing.
In this time and space, the interests of the Yizhou family are completely different from those in history.
The Yizhou aristocratic family in history couldn't hold it any longer, and felt that instead of letting the old Liu family continue to suffer misfortunes, it would be better to surrender to Cao Wei. Even if they surrendered to Cao Wei, their lives would be better.
Therefore, the Yizhou family in history basically all advocated surrender after Deng Ai's troops came to the city.
But in this time and space, even though Liu Chan has moved the capital to Chang'an, Chengdu, as the place of Longxing, has received considerable compensation from Zhuge Liang. If the Han Dynasty is really prosperous in the future, then Chengdu will be another Nanyang.
Emperor Guangwu started in Nanyang at that time. Although the capital was finally settled in Luoyang, Nanyang has always been the largest county in the world during the Later Han Dynasty, with more than one million people in Dingkou. If Chengdu becomes such a place in the future, the benefits will be huge. It's so big.
Apart from anything else, when people from the Yizhou family go out, no one will dare to say "Yizhou native" anymore.
Therefore, most of the Yizhou families in this time and space are looking forward to the three prosperity of the Han Dynasty. Although it is helpless, Chengdu is indeed too remote and unsuitable as the capital of a country, which led the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to move the capital to Chang'an, but for Yizhou , Chang'an is not too far away and is within an acceptable range.
But now it's fine. Just because of a local official's inspection, what the hell do you want to do in Yinping County to rebel across the entire county? ! Is it possible to stab a fellow countryman in the back? !
Yes, in these days, no one knows the affairs of any family. Everyone in the aristocratic family knows what kind of moral character the other party has. But for some things, there must be a bottom line.
If you cause a civil uprising, everyone will make a fuss about it and submit a letter to the court. Not only can you protect your own interests and status, but the censor can also be sent back. You just rebelled. What caused this, and Is there room for change? !
Which bastard's son is the governor of Yinping County? Is he so incompetent? !
Qiao Zhou was the anxious one. On the one hand, he sent people to quickly mobilize troops and handed them over to Yizhou's left-behind general Wu Yi to put down the rebellion. On the other hand, he quickly sent a message to the Yizhou family in Chengdu and asked them to find a way to contact them. The aristocratic families in Yinping County asked them to think of ways to settle this matter as soon as possible.
I didn’t know that the imperial court had just recovered Yingchuan County! ! !
What kind of place is Yingchuan County? It is a place where talents are born in large numbers. The talents that the small Yingchuan County has produced in less than a hundred years have almost caught up with the talents that the entire Yizhou has produced in hundreds of years.
Those guys are just waiting for something to go wrong in our place so that they can intervene. Now that we are rebelling, isn't that just a wedding dress for those guys? !
After going back to the local administration and reaching the center of the court step by step, will the Han court still have the right to speak for us Yizhou people? !
This matter must be settled as soon as possible.
In this way, the rebellion in Yinping County was quickly put down in less than two months.
He couldn't help but be unhappy. Wu Yi was stationed in Hanzhong, not far from Yinping. He quickly dispatched troops after receiving the military order, and the troops could reach the city within a month.
Within Yinping County, although many aristocratic families were dissatisfied with the censor's inspection, they did not really want to rebel. They were completely coerced by the eunuch and received secret instructions from the leading aristocratic family in Chengdu. In the end, these guys rebelled faster than anyone else.
Really, if Wu Yi hadn't received the instruction not to put down the rebellion too quickly, Yinping County would have surrendered as soon as Wu Yi led his troops.
The person who instructed Wu Yi not to put down the rebellion too quickly was Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang wants to use this incident to clear out some disdainful aristocratic families and force some local aristocratic families to make concessions, paving the way for the next method.
Actually, the main targets are really the wealthy Yizhou families.
There was no way. In order to exchange for the Yizhou family's support in moving the capital, Zhuge Liang made some concessions to the Yizhou family. Basically, he tacitly allowed the Yizhou family to recommend local people to serve as governors of various counties in Yizhou.
Within the central court, a small proportion of Yizhou people occupied high positions, but within Yizhou, most Yizhou people served as local governors, and this was where Yizhou people had the final say.
This kind of measure is just a temporary measure. Zhuge Liang has been trying to find a way to break this situation for a long time, but he has never had a good excuse.
This Yinping County rebellion is the best excuse.
Although there are civil unrest and rebellions in other places, they are basically just individual counties within several counties. The scope of the impact is not large and the scale is small. Some of them do not even require the direct censor to mobilize troops. Local The county captain can mobilize local county soldiers to achieve peace.
It just so happens that a county in Yizhou has rebelled. If the court doesn't even take action on such a big matter, then the court is really hopeless.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang used the rebellion in Yinping County as an excuse to report to the emperor, demanding that the personnel selection system be reformed and the off-site appointment system of the Han Dynasty be restored.
To put it simply, locals cannot serve as officials locally and must go elsewhere.
However, Zhuge Liang still left a small loophole for the Yizhou aristocratic families. The concept of local people was limited to the county, rather than being raised to the state level like during the Han Dynasty.
If Zhuge Liang directly restored the off-site appointment system of the Han Dynasty and required people from Yizhou not to be officials in Yizhou and people from Jingzhou not to be officials in Jingzhou, this would be a step too far.
During the more than forty years of war in the late Han Dynasty, local people in various places had long formed the habit of serving as local officials, and various interest relationships had been formed. If they were to be broken rashly, trouble would definitely be huge.
At that time, it was not just the wealthy families in Yizhou who opposed it, but the wealthy families in the seven prefectures under the rule of the Han Dynasty who collectively opposed it.
But if it is only limited to the county, it will not actually have a big impact on other states. After all, the governors of other states are theoretically appointed by the court, and it is not the local aristocratic families who have the final say.
Only Yizhou is an exception.
The original exchange of interests was that Yizhou people could appoint local county officials in Yizhou.
As for whether a person from Shu County serves as the governor of Jianwei County or a person from Bajun serves as the governor of Zitong County, this will not cause much harm to the overall interests of the Yizhou family.
This is a policy that can be accepted by Yizhou's local aristocratic families. After all, there must be an explanation for the collective rebellion of a county. This concession is still acceptable to the Yizhou aristocratic families.
But for Zhuge Liang, as long as this hole is opened, many things will be easier to handle.
What the Yizhou family thought was that people from Shu County could be the governor of Jianwei County, and people from Ba County could be the governor of Zitong County. But what Zhuge Liang thought was that they were also from other counties, so why couldn't people from Yingchuan become Shu officials? Where is the prefect of the county? !
Of course, there are some things that Zhuge Liang will not do immediately, but as long as the opening is opened and there is no problem with the rules, as long as the time is right and what to do, the Yizhou families will no longer be able to beep.
Of course, wealthy families from other states are not allowed to talk nonsense.
In addition to this reform in personnel appointments, Zhuge Liang also made certain adjustments to the personnel selection system.
What Ji Han is currently implementing is still a talent selection model based on the imperial examination system. The imperial examination system was implemented only once, and it was more than ten years ago.
At that time, both within Ji Han and everyone in the world felt that it was just a farce.
But now, Zhuge Liang felt that the imperial examination system could be put on the agenda.
Of course, what Zhuge Liang wants to use is not the imperial examination system that Zhang Xi mentioned. Without more than a hundred years of accumulation, it is impossible to break the talent barrier.
After all, in these days and times, the chances of talented people coming out of poor families are really low. As for the common people, don't even think about it.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang requested that the talent selection system be restricted on the grounds that most of the local officials' assessment scores were only above average during the official inspection.
In the future, talents recommended by local police officers must take another imperial examination organized by the imperial court to determine the ability of the police officers.
Those who are good at local governance will be sent to local officials, those who are good at overall management will stay in the capital for training, and those who are good at military strategy will be sent to the military for training. Of course, everyone has room for promotion, but the starting point must be based on the imperial examination results. .
In the spring of the seventh year of Yanxi, Han Dynasty conducted the first such talent selection system and selected various talents, a total of forty-three people.
Some of these forty-three people were sent to various states and places to start as county-level assistant officials and civil servants, some stayed in Luoyang to follow Zhuge Liang in handling government affairs, and some went to serve in the army.
However, as the first batch of talents selected through this method, whether they are in the central or local governments, in government affairs or military affairs, they will not go too smoothly.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang must always pay attention to this group of talents and not let them make any big mistakes and give excuses to those who oppose this method of talent selection.
So, these three years were actually not a smooth three years for the big man.
In three years, there were not only internal rebellions, but also internal turmoil caused by various internal reforms. Suddenly Zhuge Liang said he was going to carry out the Sixth Northern Expedition? !
No wonder even Pang Tong didn't agree with this matter.
Although this saying has been made famous by a certain bald man, most of the time, it still makes sense.
