The appointment of the Imperial Doctor, Lang Zhongling, and even Wei Weicheng were all used as background boards by hundreds of officials in the palace, and Liu Hong and Chen Ping were set in the open and secret battles.

Judging from the results, it was undoubtedly Liu Hong who won an overwhelming victory - Liu Hong's goals were all achieved, but Chen Ping's family failed to prevent Liu Hong's blatant 'cronyism' and the placement of party henchmen in Jiuqing's key positions.

Just when the hundred officials felt a little uncomfortable serving as a background board, Liu Hong threw out the candidates for the court lieutenant and the Shaofu as if he had a feeling, and handed them over to the hundred officials to discuss and decide, instead of consulting Chen Ping like appointing the imperial doctor, appointing Lang Zhongling to 'ask' Chai Wu, or directly asking Zhou Bo to recommend him like appointing a lieutenant.

After hesitating for a moment, he found that Wang Ling, Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others standing in the hall all returned to their positions, knelt down and closed their eyes to recuperate, and after Chai Wu, Liu Budo, Liu Jie and others did not mean to speak, the hundred officials in the hall suddenly danced with their eyebrows!

- The sense of political participation is almost more important to the courtiers than the black yarn hat!

If everything is like the Chang Dynasty in the past few months, the emperor and the three dukes and nine kings exchange decisions, then the rest of the courtiers wake up in the middle of the night and go to court in the dark before dawn; Meimei slept well, and then wandered to the office of the subordinate office, how comfortable is it?

In fact, in the court of the feudal period, there are rarely scenes like in the past few months, when the three princes and nine kings go into battle shirtless, arguing with the emperor.

In history, except for the First Emperor, Ming Taizu, Emperor Yang of Sui and several others have tried to fight alone

Normally, when the emperor has an opinion on a certain matter, and even after he has a solution, he usually does not directly say to the court, 'Something is not good, I think it can be changed like this'.

Instead, he summoned Jiuqing, who had the corresponding authority, in advance, and vaguely mentioned: I heard that something happened in such and such a place, what does Qing think?

Then this Jiuqing heard the sound and knew the elegance, and said: Your Majesty, this kind of thing has been there for a long time, but it was not too serious before, and now that it has reached this point, it is indeed necessary to consider rectification.

The emperor will nod and explain to this Jiuqing: Aiqing is an expert, and he knows more about this aspect, so let's think about the solution.

At this point, the tacit understanding between the monarch and the minister was reached.

At the next court meeting, the emperor will 'inadvertently' propose: A certain secretary gave me a performance the day before yesterday, saying that something needs to be improved, and now there is a solution?

That Jiuqing would answer the call and answer with a little guilt: The minister is stupid, and he really didn't think of how to solve this problem; Both the DPRK and the Chinese are outstanding, and someone should be able to come up with a countermeasure, so why don't Your Majesty brainstorm and let the DPRK and the Chinese government discuss?

The emperor got off the donkey down the slope and was as good as a stream: since this is the case, let's discuss it and see if we can come up with a plan.

This is the standard political process of 'the emperor trying to make changes in some aspects'.

Thus exalted by the emperor as a 'minister of the country', the officials would naturally put forward a feasible plan in their hearts with great interest, and in the process, the emperor would act as an observer and not express his opinion on a certain plan; the courtiers would be allowed to repeatedly put forward the plan, and then the rest of the people pointed out the shortcomings and rejected them.

After repeating this, after the courtiers discussed and perfected, and finally came up with three plans that most people agreed with and could not point out the drawbacks, the emperor would make a decision and choose one of the three plans.

In this way, even if the emperor originally had a plan in his heart, he would secretly weigh it in the discussion of the courtiers, and try to improve his own plan through the disadvantages proposed by the courtiers, and then compare it with the plan proposed by the courtiers and choose the most reasonable one.

If the last three plans happen to include the one that the emperor originally agreed with, then everyone will naturally be happy - the emperor has perfectly achieved his political goals through the mouths of the courtiers; The courtiers' sense of identity and participation in governing the country was also satisfied, and the sense of ownership was max!

In the long run, the political atmosphere of the court developed in the positive direction of 'co-governance of monarchs and ministers', and eventually contributed to the prosperity of the rule of Wenjing.

Even if the emperor still insists on the plan in his heart, he only needs to point out the shortcomings of the three plans proposed by the courtiers one by one, and the courtiers will understand it and bow down to each other: the ministers are stupid and do not understand the holy will, and ask Your Majesty to make a decision.

However, this kind of forced drinking water will inevitably make the courtiers' enthusiasm for participating in political discussions gradually decrease; The plan proposed by the emperor himself, if it has a bad effect, will also cause a big blow to the emperor's authority.

Therefore, even Emperor Jing, the 'lone husband' in history, followed this process most of the time, and even if it finally reached the point of forcibly destroying the political process and personally promoting the reduction of the feudal domain, he would try his best to control the number of such 'dictatorships'.

After Wu Chu was leveled and the princes were cut, Emperor Jing still obediently withdrew his fangs, sat back on the docile and gentle Son of Heaven, and should be 'handed over' to the courtiers for discussion and decision.

And in the hearts of hundreds of officials, Liu Hong's previous Chang Dynasty almost always appeared in the image of a 'single husband' and 'dictator' - he came up and put forward a plan and handed it over to the courtiers to discuss the feasibility!

Even if the plan proposed by the emperor himself is not good, how can the courtiers directly point out the mistakes?

Therefore, in the past two months, in the minds of hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China, Liu Hong has always been faintly dissatisfied; This also made before the Gaomiao incident, even if the officials in the court and the central government were willing to join Liu Hong's command, they were a little reluctant.

Now, seeing Liu Hong's 'sage' to restore the order of the court to 'normal', the hundred officials were suddenly overjoyed, and they sent about 600 stone adjutants to come forward and put forward their opinions.

All of a sudden, the Xuanshu Hall was as lively as a busy city; Nowadays, almost every lord and general of the Han family who is qualified to serve as Jiuqing, and their names have appeared in the discussions of the courtiers.

The final result of the negotiation was basically the same as Liu Hong's prediction.

——Through the friendly negotiations of the courtiers' 'soft talk' and 'reasonable evidence', the final result was finally given by Feng Changcheng, who had a dark eye-eye, and the final result: the most suitable candidate for Ting Weiqing was Hedong Taishou and Wu Gong.

In this regard, Liu Hong already had eighty percent certainty in his heart - otherwise, Liu Hong would not be so confident to throw out the court lieutenant who had already decided on the candidate and hand it over to the courtiers for consultation.

Now in the Han family, those who can be qualified to serve as Jiuqing, except for the dozens of Che Hou who are old enough, are only the county guards from all over the country.

In addition, the 'court captain', which has very high requirements for the legal profession, is only two or three people who meet the conditions.

Compared with those county guards who have more than ten years of seniority but no special 'performance', and the second generation of Hou who has nothing but his father's accident, Hedong Shou Wu Gong's evaluation of 'Zhiping is the first in the world' is undoubtedly outstanding.

This is probably also the reason why Wu Gong became the first court Weiqing of Emperor Wen in history - there are only a few people for Liu Heng to choose, and it is reassuring that there is only Wu Gong.

Through the courtiers' 'court discussion', Liu Hongzi was very satisfied with the candidates for the court lieutenants, but the results of the courtiers' discussions on the candidates for the Shaofu were unexpected by Liu Hong.

- Hanzhong County Shou, Uncle Tian!
