The third on the list in the autumn of the fifth year of Qianyou, the champion Gao Chun, the article is very good, and the talent is good, but the scholarly business is too heavy, Liu Chengyou plans to let him go to Jixian Hall first to follow Su Yuqi to study the history school.

Lu Duoxun, who is sexually intelligent, highly talented, and uninformed, is too arrogant. was arranged to be a school scrivener in Zhaowenguan, and I don't know how long I have to be a book administrator......

The only person who can use it immediately is this Zhao Cao, perhaps because of his father's comfort to make Zhao Shang's training, he is talented and mature. Although he is not very old, he is low-key and humble, and he has the ability to make decisions. In terms of learning, compared with those "celebrities", although it is not particularly prominent, it is also a genius who can be a literary genius at the age of twelve.

Li Fang knew about Huazhou, and Liu Chengyou remembered this person, of course, Zhao Xi's statement was not unreasonable, it was just the choice of close ministers, and it depended on his preferences as the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Feng Xianggong asks to see you!"

"Sit!" In the hall, looking at the old fox Feng who was holding a song in his hand and bending down, thinking of his old age, Liu Chengyou commanded softly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Feng Dao said humbly.

The rule of the courtiers sitting and discussing things has been abolished by Liu Chengyou, and since last year, all the courtiers have to stand and discuss matters in court meetings and court meetings.

As far as Feng Dao is concerned, even if it is this kind of private advice in the palace, he is still deferential and cautious.

"What's the matter, Lao Fengqing will come in person!" Liu Chengyou looked at Feng Dao and asked.

Feng Dao was over seventy years old, with gray hair, stiff legs and hunched back, revealing a decaying temperament, and the years had carved too many traces on his face.

Liu Chengyou suddenly realized that Feng Dao had aged a little too fast in the past two years, after all, people who were old and strong like Hou Yi and Yao Yuanfu were a minority after all.

Feng Dao's hands trembled. Wen Tianzi asked, and chuckled lightly: "The old minister has reached his twilight years, and his days are running out, so I want to see Tianyan and listen to the holy sound ......while I still have some energy."

Feng Dao always spoke so beautifully, but Liu Chengyou sighed: "Since I have been at the Imperial Pole, I have relied on Feng Gong, assistant yin and yang, and appeased the inside and outside, and I have worked hard!" ”

Under the emperor's gentle attitude, Feng Dao's old face was even more stretched, and he said: "It is the blessing and luck of the old minister to be able to assist the Ming monarch in governing the world and achieving great causes. It's a pity that the old minister can't see the day when His Majesty realizes his great cause in his lifetime! ”

"Feng Gong is talking today, how can he be so unlucky, and say some depressing words!" Liu Chengyou frowned and looked at Feng Dao.

Facing the emperor's questioning gaze, Feng Dao couldn't help but sigh secretly, the Son of Heaven had a keen sense of smell. Arching his hand, he said to Liu Chengyou: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, today, in addition to the report, the old minister intends to beg for bones, please allow Your Majesty!" ”

As he spoke, Feng Dao took out a letter of resignation from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Dejun.

Liu Chengyou closed the note in his hand, lightly "huh", and looked at Feng Dao intently, this old man also calmly faced the emperor.

But seeing that Feng Dao's body was getting thinner and thinner, there were more old age spots on his face, and there was only a little gray left in his beard that had not yet been swallowed by the gray. Feeling something, Liu Chengyou said quietly: "Is Gong Feng also going to abandon me?" ”

There seemed to be reluctance in the tone of the Son of Heaven, but Feng Dao didn't dare to take it seriously, he was also self-aware. Although he has been in many dynasties, tired of being the third duke, to the Qianyou Dynasty, he was valued by the Han Emperor and was the prime minister of the imperial court, which can be described as a personal peak achievement. However, judging from Feng Dao's observation and understanding of the Son of Heaven, he is not the prime minister that Liu Chengyou really values......

Laughing, Feng Dao replied: "Your Majesty, the minister is over the age of old, his body is frail and sickly, and since last winter, he has felt even less energetic, his eyes are in a trance, and he is unable to bear the heavy affairs of the country. Since the beginning of spring, the symptoms have worsened!

His Majesty does not dislike the old minister, and with this stump, the minister is very emotional, but he does not dare to encroach on the phase again, so as not to make a mistake. Now that the Han Dynasty is under the governance of His Majesty, it is thriving and glorious, and the good ministers in the court are coming out one after another.

Moreover, His Majesty was a time ago, and the middle-aged ministers of this dynasty were raised. Now that the minister is declining to this point, I pray that Your Majesty can give him grace! ”

Looking at Feng Dao calmly, listening to his earnest statement, the corners of his mouth curled, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this duke, really a smart person, seemed to have noticed something early......

"If Feng Gong goes to the court, I really have reluctance in my heart!" After thinking about people for a while, Liu Chengyou said.

Hearing this, Feng Dao was obviously relaxed, and he was even more calm, and responded: "The old minister is in the opposition for the people, and he also prayed for the Han and His Majesty at that time!" ”

Reading Feng Dao's resignation, it can be seen that he has written it carefully, and it is enough to include an article in Feng Dao's anthology. To this extent, Liu Chengyou didn't pretend to be pretentious, and said directly: "Since Gong Feng has made up his mind, even if I have the intention of seizing affection, it is not good to force him to stay." I've got! ”

After a pause, Liu Chengyou said: "With his own position, add the book order, and double the Juelu!" ”

"Old minister, thank you for your grace!" Feng Dao's face was full of emotion, and he got up and bowed down.

Looking at Feng Dao, Liu Chengyou thought for a while and asked, "After Feng Gong leaves office, who will succeed him?" ”

Faced with this question, Feng Dao obviously hesitated a little, glanced at Liu Chengyou carefully, and was as cautious as ever, and said: "This should be considered by Your Majesty, the holy will belongs, and you should be in your position!" ”

This old slippery head, Liu Chengyou smiled: "Feng Gongde is highly respected, and he knows a lot about the ministers of the imperial court, I just want to listen to the opinions of the public, and I can make trade-offs!" ”

With a little oppression in the emperor's eyes, Feng Dao hesitated for a while, and finally said personally: "The old minister thinks that Wei Renpu, the secretary of the military department, can be the leader!" ”

"The affairs of the military department are already complicated, and I am afraid that there is no spare strength." Liu Chengyou said.

"The criminal department is still in the norm!" Feng Dao said again without thinking.

Feng Dao still did not change his cautiousness, speculating that the emperor wanted to raise people, after all, everyone knew that Wei Renpu and Fan Qian, but the original "imperial party" also attached great importance to the two.

"Fan quality...... He muttered, as if pondering, and glanced at Feng Dao: "How is Li Tao?" ”

Feng Dao's face remained unchanged, and he responded: "Li Tao is generous, attaches importance to social welfare, and enforces the law impartially, but his words and actions on weekdays may be frivolous, and he is embarrassed to be the first ruler!" ”

Feng Dao is a bone in the egg, and found some "no" from Li Tao, and it seems that he doesn't want Li Tao to take the position.

Liu Chengyou looked at him, smiled, and said quietly: "On weekdays, Feng Gong and Li Tao are the closest, but now Juxian avoids them, which shows that what he upholds is the heart of the public!" ”

Hearing the emperor say this, Feng Dao only felt his heart pounding, and he could only laugh awkwardly and echo.

After thinking for a while, Liu Chengyou had a warm smile on his face, and he seemed a lot more relaxed, and asked Feng Dao: "What are Feng Qing's plans after becoming a scholar?" ”

"The old minister plans to return to his hometown and raise his grandson, and by the way, gather the last energy and sort out the articles and poems he has written over ......the years," Feng Dao said.

"Feng Gong wants to have a good time!" Liu Chengyou nodded: "I remember, Feng Gong is from Yingzhou!" ”

"Exactly!"

"Now Yingzhou is a border land, a place to use soldiers, not a good place to live and recuperate, not enough to be happy! In this way, Feng Gong can go to Luoyang, the ministers of the court and the central government, and I will give you a mansion! Liu Chengyou said.

Feng Dao frowned, and said respectfully: "Yes!" Thank you! ”

After Feng Dao retreated, Liu Chengyou showed an inexplicable smile, Feng Dao invited today, but he remembered Zhao Ying's words at the beginning. Some are similar, and now Zhao Ying is very comfortable in Chenzhou.

"Pass on Li Chongju!"

As the new martial arts envoy, he has only been in office for a few months, and his atmosphere has changed greatly and he has been low-key a lot. In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that after Wang Jingchong's incident, he fell silent and was not arrogant. Of course, this is also the result of Li Chongju's strict restraint and rectification, putting away his teeth and claws, but his eyes are still sharp, and he is staring at the court and the opposition inside and outside for the emperor.

"What does Your Majesty command?" Li Chongju asked.

"Go and check, how is Feng Dao's health recently!" Liu Chengyou said.

Although he didn't understand what this meant, Li Chongju still had a numb face and replied concisely and forcefully: "Yes!" ”

After being ordered to go, Liu Chengyou looked at Zhang Dejun again: "What do you think, how should Li Chongju, a martial arts envoy, be ......?"

"Your Majesty entrusts him with his people!"

In February of the sixth year of the Great Han Dynasty, the Han Emperor issued an edict, and the Prime Minister Feng Dao was appointed to the original position, and the Emperor of Yan moved to Luoyang to recuperate.

After the follow, Li Tao, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu and Tongping Zhangshi, was the left secretary of the middle book, and lived in the first seat of the political affairs hall.

Since Feng Dao left his post, the Han Dynasty has opened a new article, the old ministers are gone, and the new Zhuangying Hall is gone. Since the beginning of the country, no one has been in power except for Li Tao.

And Li Tao, although he was promoted to Gaozu Liu Zhiyuan in the Han Dynasty, is a "former minister", but he is only in his fifties and is still young. Doing errands on weekdays also returns Liu Chengyou's intentions.
