Chapter 11: The Worst Era of Being an Official

There is no doubt that the external troubles have just eased, and the Han Dynasty is about to usher in a new round of political struggle.

The emperor didn't want to see the contradictions in this world become relaxed, he wanted everyone to be exhausted, so that he could complete his political layout in the chaos.

There is naturally nothing wrong with this, and it is normal for the emperor to want to sort out a court suitable for him to take power.

However...... Until now, no one has understood what the emperor's political layout really looked like.

Before the emperor returned to Chang'an, Yun Lang took the lead in returning to Shanglin Yuan, closed the door and took a group of servants to eat and drink at home for three days, and the troubled Yun clan slowly calmed down.

took off his armor and changed back to the green shirt, Yun Lang decided to put the war behind him, even if Huo Qu was sick and ran back, he didn't want to go to the cavalry lieutenant barracks to join in the fun.

In fact, there was no need for him to go, and the cavalry lieutenant barracks was also crowded, and some of the cavalry lieutenant soldiers who had just won the supreme battle merit went to congratulate them.

Huo Quai's illness was hooked mountain, white mountaineering, surrendered city, Qilian Mountain, white wolf mouth five battles and five victories, bravely crowned the three armies, won the title of the Han Changle champion Hou, sealed 1,500 households.

In order to show the special glory of Huo Quzhi, the rest of the people were rewarded by the emperor in March of the following year.

During this time, the Han Dynasty did not seal the marquis!

Under Huo Qu's illness, it should be Yunlang's heaviest reward, however, there was no news at all, and even Zhang Tang specially wrote from Chang'an to ask him if he had completely broken with Huo Qu's illness.

After Yun Lang saw Zhang Tang's letterhead, he smiled and threw it aside.

After preparing a dozen small and delicate gold ingots, I went to Gillian to play mahjong.

Now, only Yun Lang and Cao Xiang can be on the Gillian table, and Da Changqiu is completely a person.

Nowadays, playing cards with Gillian has no meaning of winning, and the main purpose of playing cards is to fight wits and courage between the three people.

"Rokujo!"

Under the angry gaze of Yun Lang and Cao Xiang, Da Changqiu lightly threw a piece of the Absolute Six on the table.

"It's mushy!"

Gillian happily pushed down the card game in front of her, and then said to Yun Lang and Cao Xiang: "Take the money, see it clearly, all the same, nine times!" ”

Yun Lang pushed the gold ingot over to Gillian, and said dissatisfiedly: "You are not opening a gambling game, you are opening a black shop, and grabbing money is faster than winning." ”

Gillian snorted and said, "Don't think I don't know what the two of you brothers have in mind, who is cooperating with whom in front of me to trick me?"

How fair it is now, two against two, no one suffers, no one takes advantage. ”

Yun Lang sorted out the cards under his hand, and he was not idle, and smiled at Gillian: "You like it too, we play cards every day, and there is no problem in playing until we are old." ”

Gillian stopped arranging her mahjong hand and said hatefully: "From October to February of the next year, Your Majesty will not be a marquis, but will depose some marquis."

In the past few years, you people have accumulated their military exploits day by day, and the Han Dynasty has become more and more day by day, and if it goes on like this, all the Han people will become marquis, and when the time comes, a group of monkeys standing on the street will look spectacular against each other. ”

Cao Xiang said dissatisfiedly: "Whose marquis didn't get it after being born and dying?" Let's just say go to the disease, does he still have a piece of good skin and flesh on his body?

That is, the fate is hard, this is the first to catch a champion, if you are unlucky enough to die in battle, Your Majesty and you can be a copper without having to pay.

Noble, sitting on the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, don't care about the little profits that we have earned. ”

Da Changqiu sneered: "It's natural to give you a little sweetness, when you are full, you should honestly squat at home to raise fat, but when you are full, you refuse to stop, some people are connected with the thieves in Lingnan, some people are eye-to-eye, and some people are not satisfied with eating people's fat and people's ointment, and even other people's daughters are not willing to let go."

Such waste materials, what do you have to do so much. ”

Listening to Da Changqiu's fierce words, Yun Lang glanced at Cao Xiang, and saw Cao Xiang said slowly: "The land of Bashu is not peaceful, and there are envoys from Huainan who went to the Xiongnu to visit the Xiongnu King's Da Yan clan. ”

Yun Lang pouted and said, "It's my business, I'm a farmer now." ”

Cao Xiang laughed and said: "I don't care about my, I'm an idle marquis now, and the dogs don't pay much attention to me." ”

Gillian sorted out the cards, and after drawing the cards, she threw out a card and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not bad to live in Shanglin Yuan cleanly."

How about I do the work I worry about? ”

Yun Lang smiled: "You were originally the head of our Shanglin Yuan, if you don't come forward, who will come forward?" ”

Gillian nodded with satisfaction and said: "Grain, weaving, and will be made, these things are the foundation of the country, as long as there is food, even if there is a dispute in the world, it can always be calmed down with food."

In fact, as long as we pinch these things in our hands, and the world follows them to knead, it is all fake, once the stomach is hungry and the body feels cold, everyone can feel our good. ”

Yun Lang drew a card, and said with a smile while fiddling with it: "That's true, it seems that they are all inconspicuous things, as long as you persist for more than ten years, you can do big things."

Now, His Majesty is ambitious, the ministers are full of ambition, and the generals are competing for military merit with red eyes.

They all thought that a great prosperity was coming, but they didn't know, what is a prosperous era? The people are well fed and clothed, the country has no external troubles, and the monarch has no internal worries is the real prosperous era.

The war was fought, and all the barbarian kings came to Chang'an to dance for His Majesty, but the people were screaming with hunger, such a prosperous era really didn't have much effect. ”

Gillian said thoughtfully: "Do you really think that if we repair the pharmacy, make food, get some silk, chickens and ducks, we can change our current situation?" ”

Yun Lang said with a smile: "Your Majesty always says that the world belongs to the Liu family, we admit this, but although there are many descendants of the Liu family, compared with the people in the whole world, they are a minority after all.

Therefore, the king is the boat, and the people are the great water that supports the boat, and both are indispensable. ”

Gillian sneered and said: "If you want to say that water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat, just say it, if I can't even say a word or two of the truth here, I really don't know where you can confide your heart." ”

Listening to Gillian speak, Yun Lang couldn't help but sigh in his heart again, it seems that the emperor's determination to clean up the old nobles is very great, even Gillian, a person with damaged vested interests, has no intention of fighting, Yun Lang thinks that he has resigned from his official position and returned home to farm is a very wise choice.

At the end of the game, Yun Lang lost three gold ingots, while Cao Xiang won more than a dozen gold ingots.

When leaving, Yun Lang also got two ginseng with the thickness of a child's arm from Gillian, which is estimated to be less than three hundred years, but two hundred years is enough.

Recently, I have been very lacking in health, and I need to get some ginseng porridge to make up for it.

Walking through the path full of fallen leaves with Cao Xiang, Cao Xiang, who won the money, suddenly lost his temper: "This is not fair! ”

Yun Lang looked at Cao Xiang in surprise.

"My ancestors were born and died, and they were exhausted ......"

Yun Lang looked left and right, and stood aside and said: "If there is anything dissatisfied, just say it, even if you shout it, there is no one here, after you finish yelling, after you finish speaking, you will make a smile and live a good life."

After His Majesty has dealt with the king, he will naturally deal with the nobles, and after the nobles are dealt with, it is time to move the army.

When Your Majesty has finished moving, it is time to go all out to deal with the Huns, and you must first settle down inside the outside, this is Your Majesty's idea at this time.

He knew that it was definitely not an overnight thing to defeat the Xiongnu, and it was necessary to exhaust the world's financial and material resources, and if there was no stable rear support, it would be difficult for His Majesty to fulfill his long-cherished wish.

Therefore, the reason why we are uncomfortable is actually the result of His Majesty's deliberate suppression.

At this time, if anyone wants to make a difference in officialdom, he is not a fool and must be a big madman.

We are young, and we have time to wait, just take advantage of the free time in the past few years to do all the things that need to be done, and lay a good foundation for the future to soar. ”
