Shijingyun: "How is the night?" Nightfall".

This is the origin of the name of the first palace of the Han family and the Weiyang Palace.

The trombone whined, echoing in the night.

"Woo! Whining! ”

Immediately afterwards, the bells and drums rang out in unison, interpreting the majestic momentum of the Han Dynasty.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"When! While! While! ”

"When! While! ”

With the bright moon, in the staggered sound of ceremonial music, dozens of two thousand stone ministers with black official hats on their heads, after removing their shoes, poured into the Chengming Hall like a school of fish.

Nine large fish oil candles were hidden behind the curtains, and the soft light they emitted just happened to illuminate the entire hall.

Liu Che wore the crown of the emperor on his head, his demeanor was majestic, facing the south, and he knelt on the couch upright.

His Royal Highness Lang Zhongxia Majesty, His Majesty hundreds of people.

The meritorious generals and military officials of the generals and princes are subordinate to the west and east, and the civil officials and prime ministers are subordinate to the east and west.

The Chinese military officials of the Chengming Hall all knelt and sat quietly, quietly waiting for Liu Che to announce today's affairs.

The convening of the court meeting is not like in film and television dramas, which are held once a day.

Generally speaking, during the Western Han Dynasty, except for the regular meeting held at the beginning of the year, the rest of the time was irregular.

No minister can guarantee when the next court meeting will be.

However, this situation continued until the time of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, that is, Liu Che's great-grandson.

This kid founded the Chang Dynasty, which held a political hearing every five days, so that the civil and military officials could rest assured that they could sleep at home at other times. Except, of course, for emergency military situations.

This kind of considerate behavior of subordinates should be regarded as a good boss in the Western Han Dynasty.

Otherwise, the ministers would not have been exhausted by government affairs, but were killed by lack of sleep first.

The court meeting of the Western Han Dynasty began with "seven minutes of night leakage".

What is this concept?

In ancient times, two and a half minutes before sunrise was Pingdan, which was the end of the night leak and the starting point of the day leakage.

The seven quarters of the night leak are the seven quarters before the normal day, and the seven quarters of the night leak are 2 hours, 9 minutes and 36 seconds before sunrise.

If this is in mid-June, the sunrise time in Chang'an is around half past five, and the ministers' court meeting will be more than three o'clock in the morning.

This is almost comparable to a college entrance examination student studying fine arts.

Three words: kill you!

And today, Liu Che suddenly sent someone to summon everyone to hold a court meeting in the Chengming Palace, and the ministers present were all confused.

If the princes and kings enter the pilgrimage, the location of the court meeting is definitely the front hall of Weiyang Palace, not the Chengming Palace, why should the court meeting be held suddenly? Is it to announce yesterday's policy? After thinking about it, there is only this possibility.

For a while, all the two thousand stones craned their necks and looked curiously at the location of the main entrance of the Chengming Palace. They wanted to take a good look at who Liu Che had taken a fancy to.

However, they were doomed to guess wrong.

Liu Che patted the low desk next to him with his hand, "Knock! Boom! Boom! The voice echoed through the empty hall.

Its thick and majestic voice echoed closely behind, rippling in the hall together, "Ladies and gentlemen, don't look at the door. I summoned Zhu Aiqing here today just to discuss two things...... It can also be said to be one thing. ”

Liu Che saw that the two thousand stones below were sitting in danger, nodded with satisfaction, looked at the position at the entrance of the main hall, and said softly: "Xuan, in the middle of the service - Wei Qing is in the hall!"

Chun Tuo, the eunuch who served Liu Che on the side, hurriedly stepped forward, and said in a loud voice like a duck: "Your Majesty has a will, Xuan, and Wei Qing is in the palace!"

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan, in the service - Wei Qing goes to the palace!"

Although the servant is a close minister of the emperor, according to the rules of etiquette, he should wait outside the palace during the court meeting. Therefore, Liu Che needs to be summoned if he wants to see Wei Qing.

After a while, a young man wearing an official uniform and holding a piece of white jade in his hand walked in respectfully.

If Bai Mingzhe was here, he would definitely find that Wei Qing was the mysterious waiter he was talking to.

Wei Qing, the word Zhongqing.

According to the writing of Lishu, the middle character and the simplified character are the same.

The people, the people!

In order to hide his identity, he split his characters into a new name.

It's no wonder that Bai Mingzhe didn't react, the word Wei Qing has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in later generations, and the influence of his words is far less than his name.

After Wei Qing walked to the two-thirds position of the main hall, he knelt down, "Minister, Wei Qing, please see Your Majesty." ”

"Wei Qing, let's get even!" Liu Che said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wei Qing stood up neatly, and then immediately bowed his hand and said, "Your Majesty, what did Your Majesty think about what the minister said an hour and a half ago?"

Liu Che waved his hand happily, inexplicably fondling his brother-in-law, and said in a soft tone: "Hahaha, don't worry, don't I summon hundreds of civil and military officials to talk in detail." Aiqing didn't sleep for these two strategies, and went directly to Weiyang Palace to report, so I naturally had to pay attention to it. ”

His expression suddenly became serious, Liu Che sat up straight, and said in a deep voice: "I already understand what Qing means, and now I need to let the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also understand it specifically." Since you are a guest of your gate, let you explain it in detail. ”

"No!" Wei Qing gave up his hand, then looked around the left and right sides, and said in a loud voice: "Princess, Xia Guan rescued a beaten teenager in front of the Great Nongling Mansion yesterday. He claimed to have a strategy for governing the river and a policy for pacifying the Huns, and wanted to convey it to His Majesty's ears with the help of the hand of the Great Agricultural Order. ”

Zheng, who was in the civil official team, frowned at that time, and his originally relaxed spirit suddenly tightened, "Among the guards, why hasn't this official heard about this." ”

"The lower official suggested that after the big farmer order returned, he would investigate and investigate the concierge of the king, Zhang Ding." Wei Qing held the Chao Wat and smiled evilly, "Fortunately, the will of heaven is in Han, and this official was lucky to save this person, and he had a plan to secure the country." Otherwise, the people of Li will suffer from the Xiongnu and the Yellow River for decades! ”

Being ridiculed in the public and not knowing anyone, Zheng's face instantly turned black, darker than the night outside, and he arched his hand and said: "This official knows, thank you for reminding me."

Lieutenant Qing Han Anguo opened his mouth to break this embarrassment, "Okay, in the guard, please carefully explain the plan to determine the country's security!" ”

"No!" Wei Qing arched his hand, smiled slightly, and then pleaded, "Your Majesty, the minister needs a map, and a civil official to record this matter." ”

Liu Che waved his hand and said, "Quasi!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

In just two minutes, the map created by Bai Mingzhe himself was delivered. Along with the map was the table full of opinions, and the clerk.

Seeing that the "equipment" arrived, Wei Qing was no longer restrained, as if he had changed a person, and began to tell Bai Mingzhe's strategy to the civil and military officials.

This strategy is actually very easy to understand, that is, to first control the Yellow River, then cultivate good seeds, and finally resist the Xiongnu.

As for the matter of obtaining good seeds, Wei Qing only mentioned the country of Xia Dawan. Zhang Qian's mission failed, he didn't dare to say it.

Once he said it, there would definitely be big changes in the court, and he was unwilling to face the angry Liu Che and the wolf-like Manchu civil and military.

With the assistance of a special civil official, Wei Qing spoke very quickly, and even the strategy for governing the river could not be more detailed.

It took about an hour for him to say the strategy proposed by Bai Mingzhe word for word.

With a long exhalation, Wei Qing arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has finished speaking."

"Well, I'll take a break." Liu Che smiled, then looked down, and his voice became more majestic, "Zhu Aiqing, what are your opinions on this?" ”

The first to stand up was Prime Minister Xue Ze, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks this matter is too ridiculous. The siege of Mayi has failed, hundreds of thousands of materials have been spent, and the treasury is empty. If there is still the heart to attack the Huns, it will inevitably shake the country's foundation. The minister suggested that the strategy of restoring the second emperor of Wenjing, shaking hands with the Xiongnu and commensurate them with brothers. ”

can achieve the position of prime minister, he is also a shrewd person. In order to make Wei Qing's face passable, he hurriedly added: "But even so, a yellow-haired junior can be regarded as a talent if he can propose such a huge plan." The minister suggested that this person be given an official position and let him do his best for the Han. ”

Before Wei Qing could refute, the military people couldn't sit still.

! This old bastard! Dare not let them fight?

Blocking the army from obtaining military merits is no different from digging up people's ancestral graves!

No, you have to be scared!

The head of the military attaché, a general with a resolute face, stood up, he snorted, and said coldly: "The prime minister's words are wrong! Our Han and the Xiongnu were already like fire and water, and after the battle of Mayi, the peace scene between the Han and the Xiongnu had been torn apart. General Ben believes that there is no need for Annei, as long as the court plans a little, the Li clan of Longxi is willing to join the army to resist the Huns! The Yellow River can be governed, however, the plan must be curtailed! ”

Li Guang spoke without restraint, and his words were tough, "The policy of controlling the river consumes too much money and must be reduced!" His Majesty passed the Caoqu proposal last year, and the general thought that it could be repaired! There is a part of this plan that connects to the canal, and the official thinks that it can also be repaired! As for the rest, it must be put on hold! As long as the Xiongnu are pacified, our millions of soldiers are willing to replace the people who are forced to go to the river to build canals! We can't let the construction of the Yellow River delay the army to fight against the Xiongnu! ”

Zheng, who had a black face at the beginning, suddenly stood up, and after he gave up his hand to Liu Che, he said in a deep voice: "General Wei's words are wrong! In my opinion, this plan is very good! The strategy proposed by this man is from north to south, from west to east, and the whole plan is connected. If it is really implemented, I am afraid that it will be done once and for all! ”

Although his face was hurt, Zheng was not a villain at that time, and he was willing to support Wei Qing as long as the strategy was appropriate, "Since ancient times, the Yellow River has flooded countless times, and there is no king who can pacify him." Your Majesty is generous and benevolent, if you use this strategy to solve the trouble of the Yellow River, you can make more credit than Dayu and chase the three emperors and five emperors! ”

Liu Che was praised like this, and the whole person's breathing accelerated a lot.

Meritorious Dayu, chasing the three emperors and five emperors, this is exactly what he pursued after becoming the emperor!

Li Guang rolled up his sleeves and said in a tough voice, "Da Nong Ling, don't forget the time it takes to implement this huge river control policy!" It's hard to do without decades! ”

Zheng didn't give an inch at that time, "Isn't this right?" In the past few decades, my Dahan can try his best to contact Dawan, attract excellent horses, and breed Dahan horse breeds. ”
