So, Wei Xiang immediately kowtowed with sincere fear, "Your Majesty's teachings, the ministers keep them in mind, and be vigilant from time to time, so as to clarify the rule of the world for Your Majesty!" ”

When Liu Xun heard this, Wei Xiang was still very familiar with current affairs, and he was worthy of being the elite killed in the imperial mausoleum of Emperor Xiaowu!

It's good to be on the road so soon!

For Wei Xiang, Liu Xun still feels good.

Because, Wei Xiang is fair and strict, and in order to sit firmly in the position of Imperial Doctor, he has offended almost half of the nobles of Chang'an.

And his big mouth, which was almost open to mockery, pulled countless hatreds on himself.

Such a minister, that emperor does not like?

It's just that...... Wei Xiang is a person with a very strong temper, and he doesn't look back if he doesn't hit Nanshan.

Liu Xun was also a little unsure, whether he would be obedient and obedient, as a knife in his hand to deal with Huo Guang.

Now it seems that Wei Xiang is still very knowledgeable!

Since Wei Xiang knew each other so well, Liu Xun naturally wanted to give something in return.

"Huang Xie!" Liu Che looked at Chao Cuo, and ordered with satisfaction, "Give the Imperial Doctor a seat!" ”

"No!" Huang Xie bowed slightly, before today, he had already received the instructions of the Son of Heaven, and he was already well aware of the various changes that might occur in the process of the court discussion and how to judge the instructions made by the Son of Heaven.

I saw Huang Xie whispering a few times to the Yellow Gate squire beside him, and the other party immediately received the order to do it.

It should be pointed out that this Huangmen squire is not a eunuch.

In the early and middle Qin and Han dynasties, not all of the emperor's ministers were eunuchs.

In particular, Liu's Tianzi has always been well versed in the way of checks and balances, and never puts his eggs in one basket.

Therefore, around the emperor, there are close eunuchs who serve, and there are also servants and lang officials from scholars, noble classes and even folk tyrants who donate money to the imperial court through the official system, and send their heirs to the emperor for training.

Such checks and balances fully ensured that the emperor would not be deceived by the flattery of the eunuchs, nor would he fall into an embarrassing situation where no one was available.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

And the full name of the Huangmen Shilang in the Han Dynasty is the Huangmen Shilang, which belongs to the Shaofu Shangshutai.

Liu Xin at the end of the Western Han Dynasty once sighed that if he was young and had a waiter in the Yellow Gate, he would have to deal with it!

This proves that even in times of peace, the Huangmen Shilang is also a fragrant bait, which is roughly equivalent to the training mechanism of future giants such as the secretary of the Communist Youth League in later generations.

And now, the Huangmen squire is not so noble, but he belongs to a six-hundred-stone official under Shangshutai, but his power should not be underestimated.

According to the Han system, the Huangmen squire was in charge of the attendants (the Son of Heaven), and during the matter, the traffic between China and foreign countries, and the princes and dynasties were seen in the palace, and the king was seated.

Basically, it is the authority of the Ministry of Rites in later generations, and it is the position of the Yellow Gate Waiter. In the Han Dynasty, it has always been a forbidden place for the scholar class, and even the nobles are not allowed to interfere.

However, it is the subordinate officials below the Yellow Gate Squire, such as the Little Yellow Gate, the Yellow Gate Order, etc

, there are many eunuchs to fill the position.

This also makes sense.

In that year, Zhao Tong was in the same car with Emperor Taizong Xiaowen. Yuan An, who accompanied him, felt that this was a shame and couldn't accept it, so he angrily stopped the car and sued, causing the powerful eunuch Zhao Tong to quickly collapse.

How could the scholar class allow to be at the mercy of the so-called 'sword and saw remnants' on such a serious political occasion as the Great Imperial Ceremony?

Even Emperor Xiaowu's Taishi Gong felt that he had become a eunuch. It is really the biggest tragedy in the world, and I don't even consciously feel inferior when I talk to others.

I saw that the Huangmen squire came down in person, with two eunuchs, carrying a table and a futon, came to Wei Xiang, bowed down and said, "Doctor Yushi, please move with the lower officials!" ”

Then, under the gaze of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, this Huangmen squire arranged the seat of Wei Xiang to a place on the right side of Prime Minister Huo Guang in accordance with the instructions he had received a long time ago.

Seeing Wei Xiang sitting down, Liu Xun stood up and said, "Doctor Yushi, as a sub-prime minister, commanding the imperial history, supervising the impeachment of hundreds of officials, before I succeeded to the unification, I once toured Guanzhong, and saw that the government of the officials collapsed, and the people's livelihood was hard, and there were people who were hungry and poor, and the officials did not dare to report the disaster in the county and county!" ”

Liu Xun said bitterly, "The trip to Guanzhong, what I saw and heard, I still dare not or forget, always remember in my heart!" ”

Liu Xun said bitterly, but this can only be said here.

Liu Xun does not have the ability and prestige of Ming Taizu and Celestial Dynasty Taizu now, he can hang up the bureaucrats of the world and smoke them at will, and even the government is still in Huo Guang's hands.

Therefore, Liu Xun immediately turned in and said, "Of course, I also know that the matter of Guanzhong is an isolated case, and most of the officials in the world are still diligent and loyal ministers......"

Listening to Liu Xun's words, many people immediately felt a hot pain on their faces.

But fortunately, everyone's skin is very thick, and this little blow can't hurt them.

It's just that the Son of Heaven has said everything about this, and the big guy has to express it.

So, the ministers kowtowed together and said, "The Guanzhong officials are in a state of collapse, affecting Li Shu, and this is the crime of the ministers......"

Wei Xiang even took off his hat to apologize, "As a doctor of imperial history, the minister is responsible for inspecting the counties and countries of the world, and the matter of Guanzhong is the fault of the minister, please punish Your Majesty ......"

Punish a fart!

Many shouted in their hearts.

In particular, many of the princes only felt in their hearts that there were 100,000 grass and mud horses whistling by.

Who doesn't know that when today's son visited Guanzhong, Wei Xiang was only Maoling Wei, and the imperial historian at that time was the former prime minister Yang Yi.

At this moment, Wei Xiang jumped out and took up the responsibility that he shouldn't have shouldered, that is, he stepped on the grave of Yang Yi's dead ghost for 10,000 feet, and he had to pee when he was about to die!

Yang Yi is dead, and he can't roll in the grave anyway.

But......

The princes are still alive!

The big guys still think that one day they can directly serve as Jiuqing and even the imperial historian and prime minister.

Yang Yi jumped out like this, which is tantamount to a vague declaration of the world, especially implying that the princes of the Son of Heaven are unreliable, or the courtiers born of scholars are reliable, Your Majesty, you see, the ministers are 'brave to bear' even the responsibilities that do not belong to the ministers. What about the princes?

Although the Son of Heaven may not necessarily think of this verse, there is always a possibility that this is not it?

Besides, there are so many smart people around the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven 'can't think of it' for a while, but one day he 'will think of it'.

In the history of the Han dynasty for more than 50 years, the liehou class and the scholar class have cooperated and struggled, compromised and tore each other apart.

And in the past 20 years, with the world has been peaceful for a long time. The scholar class is also numerous and powerful, and has the right to speak, constantly pressing towards the power of the princely class, and the princes are naturally very vigilant against the ambitions of the scholar class.

"However, the rebellion in Guanzhong, Hexi, and Southeast has made me understand that the weight of government is heavier than Mount Tai!" Liu Xun said with his hand: "And I want to prevent the cunning thief from mutilating Li Shu." In order to tell the world, I and the thieves swore not to stand together, and I decided that from now on, the imperial historian and the court lieutenant will discuss politics and handle the case independently, and then hand it over to me and the prime minister for preview. ”

The ministers sighed in their hearts.

I probably know that this is one of the new policies after today's son ascends the throne.

A new heaven and a new atmosphere!

Cracking down on corrupt officials and killing corrupt officials are all things that everyone likes to see, and they are also things that everyone in the world likes.

As for the ministers of the DPRK and China, they did not have much feeling about this.

The left and right are just a round of trends, at most targeted anti-corruption, if you really want to be more serious, to investigate the dirty things in the local area, then I am afraid that the Son of Heaven himself will not be able to stand it!

But they didn't expect that Liu Xun, Huo Guang and other Jiuqing were already thinking about this year, and where to place the officials who were selected for the examination would become a big problem.

The position of this officialdom is a turnip and a pit, especially the local officials, such as the pavilion chief, the widower and the grassroots officials in the counties, have always been controlled by the henchmen of the local officials.

Where is there any place for the examiners?

However, the scale of the examination will continue to grow in the foreseeable future.

This made Liu Xun have to think of a way to make room for the future scholars.

Targeted anti-corruption is a good choice, and it is worth sticking to it for a long time.
