The next morning court.

Cao Chong was wearing a crown prince robe and looked calm on the high seat. Today's morning court was the same as before, but it was a little different.

As for the difference, it is naturally because of Cao Chong's edict yesterday.

A decree sent the twelve prefects to work in the same place and to work together in Liaodong.

Most of the twelve prefects were not descendants of aristocratic families, nor were they relatives and ministers. Speaking of which, most of them were able to become prefects because of their hard study and the appreciation of powerful people.

From the perspective of academic research or character, some of these are very good among the twelve prefects.

But no matter how good your character is, it will be useless if you don’t have the ability to manage the place.

To be honest, this punishment for road repair was just an excuse for Cao Chong.

The reason why these twelve prefects, who were relatively soft persimmons, were targeted by Cao Chong and exiled to Liaodong.

The first reason is that they are not active in building roads. Some of them use the money for building roads to buy oxen and iron plows for the people.

They are good officials to some extent.

But even after a year of peace in their residence, there was no big change, but the population increased slightly.

Govern by doing nothing.

Although Confucianism is booming now, Taoist theory is still very popular.

These people naturally equalized the Wei State with the early Han Dynasty.

In the early Han Dynasty, the country advocated governance by inaction. After decades, the country was rich and the people were strong, and the national treasury was full.

However, they didn't think that it was Wei Chu, not Han Chu, not three hundred years ago, Cao Chong was not Emperor Wen of Han, nor Emperor Jing of Han.

The two generations of Wen and Jing's reign accumulated a prosperous era, which accumulated countless wealth for Liu Che, which led to the great achievements of Emperor Wu of Han.

but...

How long has it been?

ten years?

Twenty years?

No!

Emperor Wen of Han, Emperor Jing of Han, including Emperor Gaozu of Han Liu Bang, three generations of five emperors, only 61 years after he worked out such family businesses.

In the eyes of these people, it is not easy to have a peaceful and prosperous era in sixty years.

But in Cao Chong's eyes, this is not enough, far from enough.

Cao Chong was absolutely unwilling to give up only the level of the early stages of Emperor Wu of Han in sixty years.

And even if Cao Chong feels young now, he doesn't have much confidence in whether he can live for another sixty years.

In the past sixty years, Cao Chong did not want to make Wei become a powerful country during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han.

Sixty years later, Cao Chong hoped that the tentacles of Wei could already touch every corner of the world.

Establishing authority is an important reason for punishing these prefects, but not all.

The purpose of these prefects guarding the city was to Liaodong, and another purpose was to free up their positions, Cao Chong wanted to install people from the prince's uterus in.

Even though Cao Chong now holds the power of the central government, when you issue a policy order, the county magistrates and county magistrates are still implemented.

If it weren't for the people they sent, how could they implement the policies and regulations in Cao Chong's hands?

To be honest, the laws and policies issued by Cao Chong are harmless to them, and some are even beneficial to them. Even so, their efficiency in doing things is still surprisingly low.

If one day Cao Chong wants to issue some policies that are contrary to their interests, will they continue to implement them according to their own wishes?

Won't!

There are policies above and countermeasures below.

Although there are regulatory departments in this era, the degree of information circulation and the degree of transportation are too slow. The central government radiates out and its impact on local areas, especially those far away from the center of the empire, have always had no obvious effect.

Some can be said to have no effect at all.

This is also the reason why Cao Chong wanted to build roads.

As long as the road is repaired, it takes a few years to get the bicycle out, and then a few decades to get the steam engine out.

Maybe the radio can be made...

Of course, since these are not Cao Chong's majors, he can only provide an idea. If you really want to get things done, it depends on the next generation.

A tech tree cannot bear fruit directly without rhizomes.

If this is true, this technology tree will not grow, and it will not be healthy.

Cao Chong had already arranged the candidates for these twelve counties, so no matter how many people opposed the court today, they would eventually return in a defeat.

To a certain extent, feudal system also has its superiority.

If the emperor is a wise lord, the society will quickly move towards the direction the emperor wants.

This is incomparable to the social system and capital system in later generations.

Of course, if you encounter a brainless emperor, the country will be half destroyed.

At this time, the person who decided the fate of this country was Cao Chong. He said that whoever embezzled would be corrupt. Whoever wanted to exile Liaodong would have to be exiled.

This is the authority of the emperor.

All the kings under the world are the kings, and all the kings are the kings and ministers in the boundaries of the earth.

The emperor is the master of the world.

Of course, even so, you still have to take into account your eating habits.

For example, killing someone must have a reason.

Corruption is the reason Cao Chong gave these twelve people a good choice.

As for their dissatisfaction and complaining to Boss Cao?

Sorry, Cao Chong had already reported this to Boss Cao.

It would probably be in vain for them to go there.

After sitting on the throne for a while, His Highness finally got up and spoke.

But when Cao Chong saw the person who stood up to speak, he frowned slightly.

"Your Highness, I have something to report."

Cao Ju stood in the court holding a jade scepter. Although he lowered his head a little, he did not mean to bow his head in his tone.

What are you going to get involved in this kid?

"If you have something, report it. If it is a small matter, don't say it out."

Cao Chong's tone directly expressed his dissatisfaction. If Cao Ju was smart, he would have retreated.

However, what surprised Cao Chong even more was that although this guy swallowed secretly, he did not retreat.

"Your Highness, if it weren't for a big deal, how could I stand in the hall at this time?"

Cao Chong sighed softly.

Cao Chong is Cao Chong's younger brother. He has been practicing with Cao Chong for a long time before. Now in the court, Cao Chong thought Cao Chong would become his arm, but he didn't expect him to stand opposite him.

To be honest, Cao Chong was a little disappointed.

However, no matter how disappointed he was, Cao Chong still covered up his emotions very well.

"Since that's the case, then you'll finish."

Huh ~

Cao Ju heard the anger in Cao Chong's tone, but he still said it.

"What I said today is Zhang Cheng, the prefect of Zhao County."

The prefect of Zhao County?

Cao Chong frowned. Among the twelve prefects, one of them was Zhang Cheng.

"Zhang Cheng, the prefect of Zhao County, embezzled road repair funds, and exiled to Liaodong, was considered to be the soft-heartedness of our palace. Otherwise, it would not be exile, but the fact that the heads were put on the ground."

Huh ~

Cao Ju suppressed the fear in his heart and continued to speak.

"Although Zhang Cheng withdrew the road repair money, it was not for corruption, but for him to use it. He will make the road repair money..."

"Enough!"

Cao Chong's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tone made people feel even colder.

"Your Highness, Zhang Cheng..."

"I said enough!"

"Brother Wang..."

"I said enough!"

While Cao Chong was angry and disappointed with Cao Ju, his eyes swept towards His Highness’s ministers.
