Chapter 105: The Morning Meeting

This was a huge change in the feudal society before the Common Era.

And for the local tyrants and unscrupulous officials, the shackles around their necks are undoubtedly tighter.

Many seem to have seen the beginning of a new purge of local forces.

But now everyone's focus is not on that.

All the courtiers are concerned about now is how much benefit their yamen can get in this reshuffle of the court?

Soon, Liu Che revealed the mystery.

In the next ranking of Jiuqing Yamen, Tingwei, Neishi, and Shaofu became the biggest winners, ranking in the top three, and each harvested the biggest piece of the political cake after the new monarch ascended the throne.

And the tragic pawn country and the servant have become complete losers.

Especially the Yamen of the Pawn State, ranked last, and even some of the power that originally belonged to him in the bowl was taken by the new monarch as a consolation prize for Taichang and Taifu.

As for Wei Wei and Zhi Jinwu, they still maintain their original status.

As a result, the political structure at the top of the latest Han pyramid has been revealed.

The prime minister and the imperial historian still retain the status of the three dukes, and the status of the imperial historian yamen has even improved, and after the imperial historian sits down, his status is more independent and no longer completely guided by the prime minister, although the official position of the imperial historian is used by the emperor to check and balance the power of the prime minister from the day it was designed. There are countless imperial historians who bypassed the prime minister and went it alone in the history of the Han Dynasty, but at least on the bright side, the imperial historian yamen is still a subsidiary of the prime minister's mansion. Under the guidance of the prime minister, however, after the imperial historian sat down, the prime minister wanted to meddle in the affairs of the imperial historian's yamen, and he had to weigh the emperor's reaction.

And the reordering of the Jiuqing Yamen makes people see the means of the new monarch.

The status of the three yamen of Tingwei, Zhijinwu, and Shaofu has improved and ranked in the top three, which allows the Son of Heaven to fully control the direction of the government and no longer worry about being overlooked.

You must know that Tingwei has always been the minion of the Son of Heaven, and Shaofu is simply the steward of the Son of Heaven.

After the status of these three yamen is raised, the corresponding authority and authority will also be strengthened.

It is no exaggeration to say that through these three yamen, Liu Xun can adjust national policies at any time, and can also avoid direct conflict with Huo Guang.

The next time of the Great Chaoyi is basically something insignificant.

It is nothing more than the ministers to congratulate Liu Xun on the New Year and offer gifts, and then there are representatives of the counties and countries of the world like Liu Xun, the emperor, who offer local products and tributary items from all over the world.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

These are the proper meanings of the question.

Then, it was the turn of the officials of each county to go to the temple to make a pilgrimage to the Son of Heaven, and briefly explain the tax, land, and population of the county in the previous year, as well as the situation of forced labor and construction.

Liu Xun attaches great importance to this link.

Because this is the son of heaven of the Han family, in addition to patrolling the world, the county

is the only way to get a complete picture of the specifics of the country under one's rule.

Touring the world, Liu Xun doesn't want to do this kind of thing.

Because he knows very well, what is the cost of doing so?

Not to mention that the Son of Heaven drove out on patrol, the scholars, people, officials and businessmen along the way were miserable, and the economic cost alone made Liu Che not interested in such a thing as patrolling - the Han family was not like the later Manchu Qing Dynasty, the emperor went on patrol, spending the country's money, and the people along the way had to provide for it......

More importantly, the Han family has a tradition that when the Son of Heaven goes out on patrol, he must give the local people who stop along the way rewards, exemption from land taxes, forced labor and other benefits - this is the leader of Liu Bang......

Take the previous year's Emperor Patrol Guanzhong as an example, before and after, just to reward the people along the way, tens of millions were scattered.

As for Emperor Xiaowu's patrol everywhere and the enshrinement of Mount Tai, the cost will be even greater.

Basically, Liu Xun's great-great-grandfather, Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che, spent the equivalent of several decisive battles in Mobei on those trips to Mount Tai alone......

It is no exaggeration to say that if it was only a war with the Xiongnu, with the financial income of the Han family, although there would be a burden and even embarrassment, it would be impossible to bankrupt the Han family's finances.

What really bankrupted the country's finances was Emperor Xiaowu's frequent patrols and immortal inquiries after his head was kicked by a donkey in the later period.

Therefore, Liu Xun attaches great importance to the report of the upper planner - although the upper planner also brought the detailed account book of all the taxes and forced labor projects of the counties and countries in the world last year, but there are so many counties in the world, and they really have to look at them one by one, and Liu Xun can't read them even if he doesn't eat or sleep all year round!

As the emperor, what Liu Xun could see was only a brief report of the Prime Minister, the Shaofu and the Imperial Historian Yamen after verification.

What is above is just some statistical data.

I don't know how many cats are in this!

Where is there better than asking in person and understanding the situation after that?

Moreover, the problem of the displaced people in the southeast has not been solved, although there will be a report about the southeast every seven days, but Liu Xun is still very dissatisfied, although he gave Zhao Chongguo an edict to pardon the southeast before, but it is also when he really can't solve it, he can only use it, and Zhao Chongguo's action is too slow, until the report sent recently, there is no action.

Moreover, in Wang Ji's report, it was vaguely pointed out that Zhao Chongguo was suspected of attacking political opponents, and Bingji was careless in his black hand.

However, Bingji privately accepted bribes and protected criminals, and there was also a reason to die, so Zhao Chongguo used the secret edict given by Liu Xun to let him return to Chang'an, Liu Xun also acquiesced, and sent Huang Xie to send all the materials to the Prime Minister's Mansion and handed them over to Huo Guang, Bingji's career can be predicted, because Huo Guang will definitely give him a hint, and when Bingji returns to Chang'an, he will definitely resign from illness as soon as possible

, there is no possibility of a comeback for life.

At this time, Huo Guang got up, walked to the center of the Xuanshu Palace, and said: "Chenguang, today I received the plan of one hundred and three counties in the thirteen states of the Tianhan Dynasty, and I am checking them one by one, Your Majesty is gracious to the world, and the four seas are all smooth and rainy, but Shun has seven years of rain, Yu has a Miao rebellion, Tang has three years of drought, and the world of the Han has floats, but it depends on the dedication of most of the ministers in the world, and the ministers will submit the results to His Majesty as soon as possible, and then announce the world, declaring that the Han Dynasty is long!! ”

Liu Xun sat on the throne, nodded with satisfaction, and replied: "There is a prime minister, such as the ministers of the world are like the prime minister, it is the blessing of me, and it is also the blessing of the common people!!"

"Minister, don't dare to be Your Majesty's holy praise !!" Huo Guang bowed, and returned to his seat after speaking.

Shaofu Qing Chen Wannian came out of the column to worship and said: "The minister Shaofu is ten thousand years, and the death is reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty Hongde, the Shaofu has a division up and down, and he is working hard, and now, the skillful craftsman of Shaofu has produced 500,000 pieces of white paper, which can be delivered too often in the near future, and is used for examinations, and at the same time 500 copies of the Book of Filial Piety have been published, and have been sent to the township schools of the world, in order to carry forward the concept of His Majesty's benevolence and filial piety!! ”

After Liu Xun heard this, he was overjoyed and replied: "The top and bottom of the Shaofu are all meritorious ministers, and they will be rewarded with a first-class knight, and Chen Wannian, the secretary of the Shaofu, will be the marquis of Guannei, and then reward the imperial sword, and he has congratulated the Shaofu for his achievements in culture and education!! ”

After hearing this, Chen Wannian was overjoyed and thanked him: "Your Majesty's gift, the ministers are grateful, and the ministers thank Your Majesty for the gifts!! ”

Dong An, the chief of Taixue Mountain, got up and bowed: "The minister Taixue sacrificial wine, the ram Spring and Autumn Dr. Chen'an, I would like to congratulate the world, congratulate Your Majesty, Your Majesty Wencheng Wude, and cover the business of the three kings, the minister thinks that His Majesty should offer, paper and filial piety in the high temple, higher than the ancestors, so that everyone in the world knows, Your Majesty's merits!! ”

Dong An's words, Liu Xun listened to it with a smile, although his face remained calm, the lifelong request of all the emperors of China is not to be famous in the annals of history, so that their ancestors know that what they trust is not human!!

Liu Xun pretended to be modest and asked: "Dong Qing's words, what is the opinion of Aiqing???? ”

As soon as Liu Xun's words fell, all the ministers bowed and said: "The ministers seconded the proposal, Your Majesty rules the world with benevolence and filial piety, and promotes the youth with holy virtue, which is a model for the people of the world!! ”

Liu Xun nodded with a smile and said: "Since all the ministers think that when the paper is presented to the high temple and presented to the ancestors, I dare not violate the public opinion, and my life is too constant, so I choose an auspicious day and prepare for the ceremony, and then meet the high temple with the ministers and the ancestors, and present the paper to the ancestors and ancestors!! ”

Taichang Huo Yu immediately attended the worship and said: "The minister respectfully follows His Majesty's will and immediately sends someone to prepare, Your Majesty's paper offering!" ”

In the singing of merit and virtue, the noisy and lively atmosphere of the Xuanmur Hall gradually calmed down, leaving time for Prime Minister Huo Guang to announce the work plan of the Han Dynasty for the next five years formulated according to the requirements of the Son of Heaven.
