Liu Xian was qualified to enter the court, but there was no place for him in the court.

If Liu Xian wants to have a position that belongs to him in the court, then he must also obtain the emperor's permission to approve Liu Xian to be in the court, and according to the Han law, Liu Xian's young lord of the plain palace, nominally the emperor's younger brother, and a person with the status of a marquis can be ranked in which position of the imperial court.

However, if Liu Xian really has a position of his own in the court, then it is not so easy for Liu Xian to speak in the court. Because, the state-owned state has family rules, and there are also rules in the court.

This is also often said to be in his position to seek his own government. When you're in the game, you have to follow the rules, and when it's not your turn to speak up, you have to be silent. In the court, the emperor is the largest, then the three princes and nine secretaries, and then the officials at all levels below, in addition, the military generals are also similar, the generals, the general of the chariot and cavalry, etc., there is a strict order.

If it's not your turn, and the chief officer above doesn't let you speak, then you are not qualified to speak.

The court is not a place to gather and there is nothing to say.

In addition, the officials in each position have different functions and responsibilities for which they are responsible, and their affairs are not related to them, and under normal circumstances, they are not allowed to meddle in their affairs.

For example, it is not appropriate for a court official in charge of agriculture to intervene in a lower-level official in charge of criminal law. In this case, the chief officer in charge of criminal affairs will think that the chief officer in charge of agriculture is attacking him, and this will cause hostility between the two officers in charge of different functions, and then they will inevitably tear each other down, and if they need the cooperation of the other party, they will only drag their feet and want to kill each other.

This is the so-called matter of political enemies.

These are the norm of the imperial court, and under normal circumstances, the various chief officials will not directly and easily tear their faces. Once you do, it will only end up with you living or dying at that time.

For example, it is equivalent to Zhang Jun directly impeaching the Ten Standing Servants and others in the court and in front of the emperor, which is equivalent to directly declaring war on the Ten Standing Servants. This is also a typical snake fight, not to die, but to suffer. It also shows that if you want the so-called traitor to eliminate the traitor and the Qing monarch, if anyone dares to directly impeach those eunuchs in the court and in front of the emperor, they must be mentally prepared to become benevolent if they do not succeed.

Anyway, as long as you are in the game, you naturally have to abide by the rules, otherwise, it is easy to be attacked by a group. In the imperial court, once he can't stand up and is dismissed, what awaits him may be a dead end, and former political enemies will have thousands of ways to put him to death.

Let's look at Cai Yong, Tian Feng, Kong Rong and others, once they lose their official positions in the court, it will be tantamount to losing power, and those who fall into the well will jump out at that time. They were forced to flee the capital.

The water in the court is very deep, and in fact, there are more unknown courtiers who have lost their positions and lost their official positions, or even died unexplained.

However, no matter how deep the water in the court was, Liu Xian didn't care too much. Because he didn't intend to be in the court class at all, he didn't intend to follow the rules and regulations here.

Liu Xian is here to be this rule-breaker. As for whether you have a place for yourself or not, it really doesn't matter.

From the very beginning when he came to the capital and entered the palace, he had the intention of killing people out of the palace at any time, how could he care about the rules and regulations of the imperial court?

In other words, if you use not very nice words, does this mean that Liu Xian has a natural backbone? But this is the case, Liu Xian is not a person of this era, and the code of conduct of this era really does not have much binding force on Liu Xian. In everything, Liu Xian will think about his own life first.

If Liu Xian doesn't have the ability to resist, then forget it, he will definitely only survive in Liulin Village, but let Liu Xian reach the Taiping Sutra and have successfully cultivated, then Liu Xian will naturally not be willing to be ordinary anymore. When you come to this era, you must think about doing something, changing something, and leaving something for future generations.

These, in fact, are also human nature, no matter who travels back to this ancient era, they will definitely think about their own lives first, and then do something. Everything you do will be considered around your own purpose. Under the premise of ability, the rules of this era cannot restrain him.

The hundred officials of the imperial court who had already arrived were a little surprised by Liu Xian, who suddenly came.

But Liu Xian ignored their fingers. Because Liu Xian is in the court, he is actually not lonely.

Liu Xian saw Lu Zhi, who he had only met in Ding Yuan's Mansion not long ago, and also saw Yang Biao, who had a good relationship with him. But Liu Xian didn't see Min Gong, of course, even if he saw him, Liu Xian would treat it as if he didn't know him.

Although Yang Biao and Liu Xian are good friends, he himself is equivalent to being born in the family of the powerful ministers of the Han Dynasty. Moreover, Liu Xian also knew that although Yang Biao had nothing to say to him, on the surface, he still wanted to keep a certain distance from him, and he didn't want the court to know that he had a close relationship with him.

Therefore, Liu Xian did not come forward to meet and talk to him.

But for Lu Zhi, Liu Xian will not have any worries.

Anyway, he is a representative of a loyal courtier, and he will not deliberately worry about those eunuchs and ministers. Therefore, Liu Xian walked straight in front of Lu Zhi.

Liu Xian smiled and said to Lu Zhi: "Lord Lu Zhi, don't come to the lamb?" We meet again. Ha, this must be fateful. ”

Lu Zhi's imperial court ranks are actually relatively high, but in fact, they are behind the three dukes. Theoretically, he is indeed a high-ranking authority, which is amazing.

Lu Zhi's current official position is the imperial court secretary.

Shangshu is also known as Shangshu Ling, and it is also known as Zhongshu Ling during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

In fact, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, government affairs belonged to Shangshu, and Shangshuling became the head responsible for the monarch and overseeing all government decrees.

It can be seen from this that if it is a normal Han court, Lu Zhi at this time, he can really be called one person above and under ten thousand people.

It's a pity that, as Lu Zhi himself said to Liu Xian in Ding Yuan's mansion, he is now in the imperial court, which is equivalent to being banned, and he has a vacant position as a scholar, but he does not have the right to exercise the Shangshu order.

This, in fact, is also conceivable.

In the court, Shangshu had the power to oversee all government decrees. But this had to be under the conditions of the emperor's direct trust and direct authorization to Lu Zhi to handle those government decrees.

In addition, it is also possible to generate power under the conditions that the three princes and nine ministers of the imperial court are willing to let him govern.

But who is the bird now?

There are hundreds of civil and military officials in the imperial court, and perhaps some of the court officials are happy and convinced of Lu Zhi, and they will report anything to Lu Zhi. However, more court officials are under the command of various court officials, and they will not report anything to Lu Zhi, so how can Lu Zhi exercise his power?

In addition, the key is the eunuchs.

Now the emperor does not go to the court, and almost all government decrees must be transferred to the emperor in the deep palace through the hands of eunuchs. Even if it is a scholar like Lu Zhi, when he has to deal with government affairs, without the support of eunuchs, he can't do anything at all.

In this way, Lu Zhi is now in the court, which is equivalent to a small transparent, although he is in the court, he seems to have nothing to do.

Lu Zhi glanced at Liu Xian angrily at this time, and said, "What does it mean to have fate?" Lu will come to the court every day, and if you come to the court, you will be able to see the old man. ”

"Hehe, we are not a high-ranking and powerful court minister like Lu Shangshu, we are just an idle marquis, and naturally we will not come to the court if we have nothing to do. Besides, I heard that the emperor hasn't been to the court for several days, so if he comes to the court every day, it seems boring. Liu Xian said left and right.

"Oh? Marquis Wu Yong, what do you mean to say, only when there is something to come to the palace to see you? What can you do? Lu Zhi looked at Liu Xiandao curiously.

"Then I can't come if I'm fine? The emperor once gave us a piece of jade pendant, and made it clear that the marquis could enter and leave the palace casually with the jade pendant. In this palace, it naturally includes this palace and court, right? Besides, I am not only a member of the Han family, but also the young lord of the Plains Palace, and the Marquis of Wuyong, with these identities, I should have the qualifications to participate in the court and court, right? ”

"Hmm...... There are many Han clan relatives, but not just any Han clan has the qualifications to enter the palace and enter the court. Unless it is summoned by the emperor. But you, Marquis Wu Yong, naturally have this qualification. Lu Zhi seemed to think for a moment, and then said very seriously.

"That's good, I'm just bored, so I'll come to the court to participate in the court meeting and see how the court meeting of our Han court works. Look at how many national affairs our Han court can handle every day. Liu Xian said.

"Dealing with ...... Fart! Lu Zhi lowered his voice a little, and said with some indignation: "The emperor is not going to the court, many political affairs have been put on hold, and occasionally some decrees that have been issued instructions are all bullshit, and they don't know what to do, which is equivalent to not giving instructions." It is estimated that those are all instructions made by the eunuchs in the palace in private, and the emperor may not really look at them. ”

"How's that going to work? How can national events be such child's play? Liu Xian pretended to be surprised.

"Huh...... Okay, go aside. It's almost there. Lu Zhi smiled helplessly, but wanted to push Liu Xian away.

"Don't worry, I'm looking for you, in fact, there is really something wrong, and I need the help of Lord Shangshu." Liu Xian felt that if Lu Zhi didn't use it, it was really too tyrannical.

Since Lu Zhi, the secretary of the dynasty, has been banned, he no longer has the power to oversee the affairs of the Han Dynasty, and he cannot exercise his power. Then let him speak, let him have this power.

"What can you do? Still need the help of the old man? In this court, the old man may not be able to do anything. ”

"How so? You are the secretary of the imperial court. Well, so be it, you don't have to worry about anything else, but when I need you to come out and make a statement, you stand up and make a statement, this should be okay, right? Liu Xian said to Lu Zhi.

"This ...... That's fine. ”

"Okay, then that's it."

……

Liu Xian didn't say anything more to Lu Zhi, but casually inspected the entire court hall.

This meeting hall, built magnificently, extremely atmospheric, inside the dragon pillars, carved with a hovering golden dragon, showing that the whole hall is both noble and solemn.

The hall is also very open, at least it can accommodate thousands of people to participate in the court meeting.

Of course, there is no need for such a large place, in fact, it is only the middle position, separated by some curtains, and on the other side of the curtain, the palace guards are hidden.

After a while, through a side door, a palace attendant entered.

He walked directly to the side of the Longtai throne in the middle, and shouted in a dusty voice: "Today, the emperor is in retirement, and the ministers of the court have something to report, and hand it over to the palace attendants to send to the imperial study for the emperor's instructions." If the Emperor's approval is not required, the ministers of the DPRK and China may decide on their own. Now, please turn in your music sheet! ”

"Slow! My lord, what about the recital you handed in yesterday? Does the emperor have any instructions? ”

"The emperor has not yet given instructions."

"What about the day before yesterday?"

"Not yet."

"Okay, if the emperor has instructions, the permanent attendants in the palace will come to announce it in person, and I will only come to collect the recital."

There was silence in the court, and the courtiers did not make any movement.

In fact, even if they had something, they had already submitted the recital, and now they are just waiting for the results, waiting for the emperor's approval.

There are some things, once the emperor approves them, then they can be implemented according to the instructions.

In fact, if there is nothing wrong with the civil and military officials in the court, and the emperor did not deliberately summon them, then they can send someone to the court to report it, and then deal with the affairs they are responsible for. Otherwise, every official in the court and the central government will come to this court every day to stand stupidly, so who will handle the functions and government affairs they are responsible for?

In many cases, as long as they can't handle it, or they have to go through the court, they will come to the court to report.

Of course, like some of the main ministers in the court, they have to come to the court every day. At most, after the emperor discusses the court, after retreating from the court, they go back and deal with their own affairs.

Usually, if it is a peaceful time in the world, there will be nothing to do in the court, often the emperor goes to the court to stand in the palace, and the chamberlain reads a sentence again, there is something to start, nothing to retreat from the court. The morning of the day is over. At this time, the so-called early dynasty became a ritual.

But now, it is an eventful autumn, the Han is in turmoil, and the local government will have many intelligence reports every day.

Therefore, theoretically, the emperor has to go to the court every day to deal with these national affairs.

Liu Xian saw that there was no movement from the hundreds of officials in the court, so didn't he say that there was nothing wrong? If you have nothing to do, how can you let yourself play on the topic?

So, when the chamberlain seemed to be extremely impatient and wanted to announce that he had nothing to do with the retreat. Liu Xian jumped out.

"Wait, something's up!"

"Please submit the recital if you have something!"

The waiter said to Liu Xian expressionlessly.
