At the end of the pro-government ceremony, Liu Zhaoxing rushed to see Li He and went directly to the ground. Li He hurriedly helped him up and said, "Your Majesty can't be like this, won't you break the villain." ”

"Sir, if it weren't for Mr.'s high discussion, Liu Zhao wouldn't have been in charge of the world so quickly, it's really Mr.'s work. I will issue an order tomorrow to seal Mr. Official. Liu Zhao was grateful and said sincerely.

Li He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I will talk about this later, now the Dou family has many henchmen in the court, and there are many vassals and cronies in the court. I'd like to stay a few more days with my head for dinner! ”

Liu Zhao's expression immediately dimmed: "What does Mr. mean, although I am pro-government, the government is still in Dou Xian's control?" ”

Li He walked around the room with his hands behind his back, pointed to the door and said, "Your Majesty, your heart is in the sky, but your body is still earthly. But it can come slowly. Fang is in chaos today, His Majesty has just ruled the country, although he has the ability, but the Dou clan is eyeing the tiger, wolf ambition, it is obvious that such a situation, you should have a way to seek perfection. Don't rush to seek success, and finally give up all your efforts. ”

Although Li He is in Liu Qingfu, he is in the overall situation of the DPRK and the central government, and he understands the emperor's thoughts, the newborn cow, and has just been able to take power, so he naturally has a lively mind, and if he wants to succeed in one fell swoop, he must grasp the rhythm, not be in a hurry, and act step by step, which is the best way to control chaos.

Liu Zhao's face was gloomy, and he bowed his head and was silent. After a long time, he said: "I'm still a useless emperor!" ”

Li He's eyes flashed, piercing Liu Zhao's skin like a sharp sword, making him shudder. I only heard him sneer: "Your Majesty, the destiny of heaven is at stake, and Your Majesty has doubts, this is human nature." What is the Mandate of Heaven, Your Majesty, you are the Mandate of Heaven, the big tree of the Dou family, although it is a tree, Your Majesty is a saw, it is a fire, sooner or later it will be sawed off and burned. Although I, Li He, am not talented, I am familiar with stargazing, gossip, numerology, and word guessing. At the beginning of His Majesty's accession to the throne, there was a peaceful phenomenon in the world, although the government was chaotic, the people were in good tune, and the border passes were repeatedly victorious, this is the celestial phenomenon, this is the mandate of heaven. Your Majesty, you should be the lord of the world, the one who is in charge of the world, but there are still obstacles, but the front is extremely clear, why worry? ”

Liu Qing pushed the door at this time and said, "Your Majesty, what Mr. said is, you must not be in a hurry!" ”

Liu Zhao glanced at Liu Qing and smiled, "Am I in a hurry?" It's just the next thing, what do you think, sir? ”

Li He took the tea that Liu Qing took, took a sip, and praised: "Lord Wang, this tea is fragrant, it is really delicious." ”

Liu Qing smiled and said: "This is what Gan Ying brought back from going out on errands a few days ago, drinking tea, but I can't get through, if it weren't for His Majesty coming, I wouldn't have taken it out!" ”

Li He laughed and said, "I still borrowed the blessing from Your Majesty." ”

Liu Zhao also smiled: "This is very good, I will also drink some to quench my thirst." He took a sip and felt that the fragrance was very useful, so he asked, "Who is Gan Ying?" ”

"Gan Ying is the villain's apprentice, he has practiced martial arts with me since he was a child, he is smart and capable, but I let him follow the prince, which is much better than following me, a person outside the world." Li He explained, but looked at Liu Zhao.

Liu Zhao understood it and thought for a while: "When Dou Xian comes back in a few days, Ban Gu will definitely follow, I heard that he is recruiting warriors to go to the Western Regions with him, and I can recommend Gan Ying to play for him." ”

Li He nodded and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the villain has been this apprentice all his life, Your Majesty let him follow Bangu, and I will rest assured, whether he will be meritorious or not in the future depends on his own ability." ”

Liu Zhao looked at Li He and pulled the topic back again, "Sir, Dou Xian is about to arrive in Beijing, what should I do then?" ”

Li He dipped his finger in a little tea and wrote a word on the case, "Zong".

Liu Zhaoru fell into the fog, and he didn't understand what Li He meant when he wrote this word, and asked, "What is the meaning of this word?" ”

Li He said calmly: "Indulgence means connivance. Anyone, anything, will be exposed in connivance. Your Majesty can try to wait and see, Dou Xian is only in a powerful position now, but he does not have any crime of rebellion, if His Majesty deals with it, he will definitely stop it, and his mother is in the same palace, so it is really difficult for His Majesty to do it. It's better to let him be more arrogant and domineering, and His Majesty will show a little timidity, and when the time comes, everything we want will come to the palm of our hands. ”

Liu Qing smiled: "Yes, when the time comes, I will intercede, but I'm afraid, I have to swallow it back!" ”

The wind chimes at the corner of the eaves outside the window jingled, and a few geese flew by under the blue sky, Liu Zhao's heart was refreshed, and he took another sip of tea, so that the fragrant taste slowly faded and faded in his mouth.

In the early morning of May 20, a horse-drawn carriage entered from outside the city, and several armored warriors rode on tall horses beside the carriage, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves hitting stones echoed through the empty streets. A few merchants who wanted to open their doors to do business poked their heads out, and when they saw this formation, they shrank back, muttering secretly in their hearts, not knowing what was going to happen again.

The carriage passed through the Middle East Gate to the west, passed between the South Palace and the North Palace, turned into a laneway, and stopped in front of Dou Xian's mansion. A samurai dismounted and knocked on the bronze knocker, and after a long time, the middle door was wide open.

Dou Cheng, the housekeeper of the Dou family, was beheaded because of Liu Chang's case, and now he has a new housekeeper Dou Ku, who has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and a treacherous face. When he saw that the carriage had arrived at the door, he greeted him, and rushed out of the courtyard and a dozen maidservants came to the car. After setting up the footstool, the two servant women got into the car and opened the curtains.

A slender jade hand stretched out from the car, and then a woman was pulled out of the car. She was wearing the color of the Huns, with a round face, her eyes showed a smart color, and the corners of her eyebrows looked charming and sharp. The body is delicate, pink and red lips, tied with a pink brocade silk satin skirt, embroidered with dense patterns, the placket is inlaid with real pearl and emerald collars, covered with a gold-rimmed jacket, and the whole person is just like a bright peach smiling in the spring breeze, very delicate. On the spring bun, a golden silk eight adjective bead hairpin is dazzling, and the other is embellished with countless pearls and emeralds, a ball of jewelry.

She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, but her complexion was slightly dark, and although she was as bright as a pearl, she always lacked some of the freshness of a book.

The woman looked around proudly, and then entered the door of the house with the support of all the servants. She is a great gift from the Southern Xiongnu to Dou Xian, the younger brother of the Southern Xiongnu King, the daughter of Yu Jie, the king of Yougu Li, and the lord of Jinsi.

Jin Si didn't care how old Dou Xian was or how many concubines she had, what she cared about was whether Dou Xian had supreme power. When she heard everything about Dou Xian, she agreed to her father's request and was escorted by an envoy to Luoyang, the eastern capital.

Dou Xian was very happy when he got the news, he had heard that Jin Si was the first beauty on the grassland, and at this time he was also on the way to Luoyang to meet Jin Si, but at this time there was an incident that delayed his trip.

Dou Xian received countless gifts, and after receiving gifts, he naturally had to do things, and in return, those who befriended him received high-ranking officials. However, when Liu Zhao dealt with more than 40 officials in one fell swoop, the news naturally reached Dou Xian's ears like the wind, and those who gave gifts but had empty bamboo baskets of water were, of course, to come to him. This made Dou Xian very embarrassed, and what the little emperor did also made Dou Xian very resentful.

Of course, he didn't dare to directly target the emperor, and Yuan An, Ren Kui and others behaved nobly, and there was no place for him to catch the handle, so he vented his anger on some officials with low status and prestige.

Shang Shu Le Hui played the emperor on the affairs of Henan Yin and Luoyang Ling, and these two were Dou Xian's friends, so when Dou Xian arrived in Henan, he pointed the finger at Le Hui.

Le Hui, the word Birch, Jingzhao Changling people. When he was a child, when his father was a county official, he didn't know what he had done to offend the county magistrate, and the county magistrate was angry and wanted to kill him.

When Le Hui got the news, he was so sad that he immediately ran to the yamen, cried loudly, mourned, and said something in his mouth: "Master Qingtian, let my father go!" Master Qingtian, let my father go! ”

The county order was not taken seriously at first, but the more Le Hui cried, the more sad he became, and the more onlookers grew. The county order is in a hurry, this is not crying and mourning, why are you crying so sadly, but why?

As a result, after asking about the situation, he had to let his father go.

Later, he studied under Jiao Yong. Jiao Yong was inspected when he was the Hedong Shou, and his other students all opened the joints for him, it was the reign of Emperor Ming, and the above investigation was very strict, and soon, Jiao Yong's students were arrested, only Le Hui was innocent and was not arrested.

Yin heard about Le Hui's fame, so he gave him gifts many times. Le Hui was not interested in this emperor's relative at all, he refused many times, and he didn't even reply.

Later, Le Hui returned to the county. None of his relatives and friends went to visit the deceased's family, only Le Hui wore mourning clothes to express his condolences.

In the future, when he was doing gongcao, he was fair, and those who wanted to bribe him were rejected by him one by one. There was a person named Yang Zheng in the same county who slandered Le Hui many times, so that Le Hui couldn't get off the stage, but Le Hui still recommended Yang Zheng's son to be filial piety because of his talent.

Le Hui was filial and fair, and was soon promoted. In the early years of its establishment, Le Hui was promoted to Sikong Mansion as an official, but Sikong became the fifth Lun. Fifth Lun and Le Hui are fellow villagers, and it is said that Le Hui can have a good future under Fifth Lun. But after Le Hui knew that Wu Lun bought and sold officials, he disdained him, and was reluctant to stay in office with this person, and left Sikong Mansion after recommending Du An of Yingchuan.

After returning to his hometown, officials of the imperial court recruited Le Hui several times, but he politely refused.

Later, under the recommendation of Yuan An and Ren Kui, Le Hui became an official again, and finally became a scholar.

It is said that after so many years in the officialdom, he should have become sleek and accessible, but the upright Le Hui did not, he played many times to impeach Dou Xian and his comrades, and finally, Dou Xian couldn't bear it anymore and decided to use Le Hui to open the knife
