Liu Tao
Liu Tao
Liu Tao? About 185), a Wei, Zi Qi, Yingchuan Yingyin people. After Liu Bo, the second son of Li king in Huainan and Zhen king in Jibei in Western Han Dynasty. The year of birth and death is unknown, and it is a figure in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He lived from emperor Huan to Emperor Ling at the beginning of Zhongping (around 185). Shen Yong has a big plan. He doesn't cultivate his power and manners, and doesn't stick to small details. They are familiar with Shangshu and Chunqiu. Zhongpingchu died because he was falsely accused of colluding with bianzhang to show his loyalty. Later, he was named Zhongling marquis.
Life of the characters
Early experience
Liu Tao, Zi Qi, a Wei, was born in Yingyin County, Yingchuan County, after Liu Bo, ZHENWANG of Jibei.
Liang Ji, the general of the Han Dynasty, had no son, and famine occurred year after year. Liu Tao was studying in Taixue at this time, and Emperor Shangshu dissuaded him from making money. Later he said that I was a wild man in the East, and I didn't know what I meant. Now I'm going to answer the question above. I know that I must be punished, and I am ridiculed by people all over the world. The emperor finally stopped casting money.
Liu taoju is filial and honest, and he is the leader of Shunyang. He was exempt from official duties because of illness. He didn't have a long time to serve the censor.
The chaos of Zhang Jiao
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had heard of his name for a long time and called Liu Tao several times. At that time, Julu Zhangjiao pretended to be the main road, and Liu Tao wrote to the imperial court that Zhangjiao demons confused the people. The emperor did not wake up, but ordered Liu Tao to compile the spring and Autumn Annals.
In 184 ad, Zhang Jiao caused a disturbance and the world was in turmoil. The emperor recalled Liu Tao's words and granted him the title of Marquis of Zhongling township. He was ordered to move three times as a minister.
Several exhortations
Because the person recommended by Liu Tao will be the Secretary of state, it is not good to be listed with him. He asked to be put outside the establishment and be an idle person. So he served as a servant.
Because Liu Tao repeatedly remonstrated, the power ministers were afraid of him, so they transferred to Beijing Zhaoyin. When he came to the post of Jing Zhaoyin, the imperial court asked Liu Tao to submit ten million yuan for palace repair. The so-called "money for repairing the palace" means "money for buying officials". Liu Tao was poor and shameful of spending money to buy officials, so he took care of his illness and did not work.
Die of suffocation
The emperor attached great importance to Liu Tao's talent, forgave him for his sins, and granted him advice.
At that time, the situation in the country was becoming more and more dangerous day by day. Foreign invaders and domestic thieves were extremely arrogant. After Liu Tao wrote a letter again, he died in silence. All over the world, he was sad.
Anecdotes and allusions
Investigate and deal with illegal activities
When Liu Tao went to Ren county, he was very treacherous and cunning. He declared that he would recruit the brave and powerful officials who were not afraid of death, whether they were outlaws or hidden villains. So more than ten swordsmen came to recruit them. Liu Tao's condemnation of their previous crimes depends on their future performance, so that each of them can accept their friendship. Hundreds of them are armed and waiting for orders. Relying on these people, Liu Tao investigated and dealt with those crafty and lawless elements and brought them to justice, just like a God.
Main achievements
Taixue Shangshu
Liu Tao was studying in Taixue at that time. Shangshu said: "I heard that if there is no heaven and earth, people can't live. If there is no man in heaven and earth, there is no spirit. Therefore, no one does not stand up to the emperor, and no one can be peaceful without the emperor. Heaven and the emperor, the emperor and the people, just like the head and the foot, depend on each other to walk. I think the emperor is as strong and virtuous as the sun. He inherits the existing celebrations and follows the unchanging system. He does not look at the war and does not listen to the sound of chariots. Natural disasters do not hurt his skin. Earthquakes and solar eclipses do not damage the holy body. So despise the variation of three light, God angry also ignore. I think emperor Gaozu started his army in Buyi to clean up the tyranny of Qin Dynasty, eliminate all kinds of hegemony forces, gather the scattered people, save the dying and heal the wounded, and then he became an emperor. He has made great contributions! It's hard work!
Fukuzawa passed the throne to his majesty. His majesty can't add luster to his ancestors' allusions. Instead, he ignores his ancestors' diligence in taking over the world. He borrows his sharp weapons from others at will, and the power of the state is lost. As a result, the ordinary villains who are beyond punishment abuse the common people and harm the country. No matter how far or near, they are all infringed upon. So heaven sent down calamities to warn the emperor, but the emperor did not wake up, so that tigers and leopards came to school to dig holes, and jackals "raised children and raised daughters" in the spring. Is this what Tang Yao and Yu Shun meant to govern the country and cherish the common people?
In addition, today's long officials are greedy for money, just like big pigs and snakes, eating up the country's wealth like silkworms eating mulberry leaves; money is the soul of redressing unjust imprisonment, and the poor can only be the ghosts of hunger and cold. I often sigh for the death of gaomen and the treason of the rich; the sorrow of the dead in the grave and the sorrow of life all over the world. In addition, when the Qin Dynasty was about to die, those who were honest and didn't admonish were often killed, while those who flattered and flattered were often rewarded. With good words, loyal officials didn't dare to say, and the fate of the country came from the mouth of the perpetrators.
When Zhao Gao was appointed as the order of Che Fu, Yan le was able to conspire with Zhao Gao to kill Hu Hai in Xianyang. The situation of success and failure is the same in ancient and modern times. Please look at the collapse of the strong Qin Dynasty from a distance, and look closely at the changes in the period of emperor AI and Emperor Ping. The gains and losses are obvious, and it is a blessing for disaster. Clearly visible. "I also heard that in dangerous times, benevolent people can't help, and in troubled times, wise people can't help. Therefore, Wuding used Fu to eliminate the disaster of Ding Er pheasant's singing, and his position was peaceful; King Xuan of Zhou used Zhong Shanfu to solve the chaos of Yi king and Li king.
He was a former prefect of Yingzhou and a former prefect of Jiwu. Zhu Mu used to enforce the law fairly in Jizhou, smashing the treacherous party and sweeping the whole territory. Li Ying, as a shepherd, set a good example in running the army and fighting. They are the excellent assistant talents of ZTE and the pillar of our country. He should be asked to return to the imperial court, assist the royal family, go up with the seven Yao, shine brightly, go down to the town of all nations, and the world is peaceful.
I dare to say such untimely words when I refuse to remonstrate. It's like frost seeing the sun. It must be destroyed. First I was sad for the world's sorrow, now the world should be sad for my stupidity The book was sent up, but the Emperor didn't accept it.
Casting money
At that time, someone wrote that because the goods were light and the money was thin, the country was poor, so it was necessary to cast big money instead. The emperor issued an imperial edict to discuss this matter among the officials of the four prefectures and the Imperial Academy. Liu Tao Shangyi said: "the sages and kings made things in heaven, and walked with the common people. Everyone is happy to make contributions, and the Sergeants are willing to listen to orders. For example, in the construction of Lingtai, the common people like their sons came to participate, and King Wu of Zhou Zhen brigade, the soldiers like Fu De shuizao. Every move is in line with the times and humanity. I learned from the imperial edict that in order to unify the opinions of the heavy and the heavy, the emperor visited the common people, leaving no trace of poverty. “
Most of the worries now lie not in money, but in people's hunger. The principle of raising people is to make them have food first, and then to talk about money. The former king looked at the sky, nurtured all things, and taught the people to work on time. The men worked hard and the women worked hard. In this way, the way of kings and ministers can be carried out, and the Enlightenment of the king's way can be realized. In this way, food is the treasure of the country and the most valuable thing for the people. In recent years, good crops have been eaten clean by locusts. Textile can not meet the needs of public and private. What we are anxious about is two meals a day. What we are afraid of is the country's labor. Can we talk about the thickness of money and goods and the weight of baht! Even if the gravel turns into gold and the tile turns into Bian he's jade, the people are thirsty and have nothing to drink, hungry and have nothing to eat. Despite the pure virtue of the three kings and the civilization of Tang Yu, there is no guarantee that there will be no trouble in the country! People can have no money or goods for a hundred years, not without food for a day. So food is most needed. People who talk about money and goods do not know that agriculture is fundamental. They always say that it is most convenient to make money.
Some even want to take the opportunity to defraud and seek the country's wealth. The state's wealth was almost obtained, and they were even more reckless to fight for it, so the making of money and goods happened. About ten thousand people cast money, and one person seizes it, but it can't be supplied. What's more, now it's one person casting money, and ten thousand people seizing it! Although we use Yin and Yang as charcoal, everything as copper, people who don't eat and officials who are not hungry, we still can't satisfy this endless greed. If we want to make the common people have enough food and clothing, the key is to stop servitude and prohibit deprivation. In this way, the people will not toil, but will be rich.
Emperor Shengde sympathizes with the sorrow of the people in the sea, and feels that the world is running out of money. He wants to cast money and unify currency to solve this problem. This is like raising fish in a hot pot and perching birds in a burning tree. Water and wood are places where fish and birds live. They are not used at the right time. They must be burnt and rotten. Please reduce the exploitation of the common people. We'll talk about the money later. Listen to people's songs, interview passers-by's sorrow, see the eclipse of the sun and the moon, the wrong line of stars, the collapse of mountains and rivers. People's minds and national affairs can be seen clearly here, without any confusion. “
I once read the book of songs, and read the chapter of wild geese in the wild, describing the hardships of the people. It's very pitiful. A hundred walls should be built at the same time, regardless of the people's life and death. I sigh and can't bear to read. Recently, I heard the cry of hunger and toil of Zhengfu, which is more miserable than the song of wild geese. So I think of the daughter of qishiyi in the state of Lu, crying against the pillar. Maybe I also saw that the state of Lu had too heavy conscription, people's life was too hard, and the country was in danger of dying again?
I read the poem "Baiju" in the book of songs. I was worried, I couldn't sleep. Now the vast land is not cultivated, and the people have no food to eat. A group of evil spirits, sharpening their brains, took the power of the country and prevailed in the world. The crow snatches for satiety, swallows all the skin and bones, and has no satisfaction. I'm really afraid that servicemen and poor craftsmen will suddenly rise up in the process of labor, roll up their sleeves, throw away their axes, and raise their voice. The people who are worried and resentful will respond to the gathering, and all sides will fall apart. The country will be rotten. Even if they have the money as big as a foot square, they can't be saved. The danger of a country is as great as a cow
