After the court meeting, Liu Hong was not excited, now that the internal troubles have subsided, the court has not been harmed, and now it is the time when the border is in great trouble and the civil strife in Xianbei, if he does not grasp the opportunity to send troops, there is no need to be the emperor again.

Thinking of the Shicai Dynasty meeting, when he revealed his willingness to draw the elite of the forbidden army, cooperate with the trilateral border army, and start the Northern Expedition, there were still many civilian officials who spoke desperately to stop him, and Liu Hong was indescribably proud in his heart, because being able to let them stop these actions like this proves that this plan is not bad.

As for why?

But it is very simple, think about it since Liu Hong opened the West Mansion, after he turned the money bag that was originally accessible to the ministers and officials into the emperor's personal money, any money that he wanted to use was only allowed by the emperor, which disrupted the country's finances, so that the foreign courtiers talked about him every day. Of course, it's not that Liu Hong's West Mansion is bad, after all, after opening the West Mansion, the domestic income of the imperial court is increasing, saving a lot of unnecessary money losses.

However, the foreign scholars didn't care about this, they tried their best to smear and belittle Liu Hong, and even privately called him the second mediocre emperor of the Han Dynasty, as for the first one, it was the first emperor Liu Zhi, the emperor who single-handedly set off the disaster of the party. And this time, there is a reason why many scholars in the foreign dynasty did not approve of the emperor's expedition.

After all, Liu Hong, like the first emperor Huan, is an emperor who set off and carries it forward, and he is always suppressing scholars. Therefore, for some foreign courtiers, they clearly understand in their hearts that this expedition is the best opportunity for the Han to sweep away the great troubles on the frontier, but they still clamore that this is a wasteful expedition that costs the people and money, and it is useless to attack, and the intentions can be seen.

Of course, there is a reason why these foreign scholars are like this, after all, once this expedition, the Han Dynasty's victory and discerning people know that the probability is very high, if Liu Hong really sweeps away the Xianbei disaster in northern Xinjiang, then how can they criticize the current politics and scold Liu Hong for being mediocre, causing the country to be dark and the people to live in embarrassment?

If anyone says that again, then where are the other emperors who are touted by them as the King of Wisdom, but who have not even pacified the frontier? Isn't this shooting yourself in the foot and slapping yourself in the face?

Therefore, it is no wonder that those foreign courtiers want to stop it so loudly, but their blocking obviously failed to make any waves, and it could not change Liu Hong's decision. After all, in the current tripartite coexistence of foreign relatives, eunuchs, and foreign courtiers, there is no era when the scholars first destroy their relatives and then slaughter the eunuchs' family, and the power is always in the hands of Liu Hong, the emperor of the balance of the three parties.

Liu Hong also knows this, so he is no longer as afraid of the pressure of foreign courtiers as before, maybe in the locality, because of the wealthy family, the Han Dynasty has become weak in the control of power, but in Luoyang, in the imperial central decision-making future court, he Liu Hong, the emperor of the Han State, will always be the ruler above his relatives, eunuchs and foreign courtiers.

At this point, after seeing the continuous rise of his relatives Song and Fu, the situation in the court became more and more stable, and the three parties always had sparks, but they always couldn't light up, Liu Hong slowly understood the truth. At the same time, he also had to sigh at the political skill of Emperor Huan, what kind of political wisdom this is, in order to completely pull the Eastern Han Dynasty out of the quagmire among the original imperial power and relatives and foreign courtiers, and after joining a eunuch force, it completely let the imperial power rise and take off again.

Today's mood is very good, Liu Hong is naturally more interested in having fun, and when he returns from the next dynasty, he goes straight to the West Mansion, wanting to find some palace maids to have fun, especially the palace queen Rong who has been favored by him recently, with an excellent waist and waist, and is as mature as a flower at a young age. Probably because of the many martial arts practices at home, her grandfather Wang Bao is a general in the facial features, between the bed, the body and bones have strong endurance, which makes people enjoy life, which is really lovely.

Walking and walking, with a glance of his eyes, he saw a young soldier outside the West Mansion, far away from him, and asked Zhang Rangdao beside him: "Father, is Jia Wenhe on duty today?" ”

Zhang Rang was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then followed Liu Hong's gaze, and after seeing the young man, he thought about today's day, it may have just ended the change of duty officials, and then he said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is Jia Wenhe." "Although Zhang Rang is not a palace guard official, after all, this West Mansion is the emperor's favorite place to play, so he can't help but care, not only the guards in the West Mansion, but also every palace maid, temple person, musician, etc. in the West Mansion, he has a score in his memory and knows who is who.

In his heart, after Zhang Rang saw Jia Xu, he also secretly prayed, hoping that Emperor Liu Hong would stop chatting with that Jia Wenhe, the ghost knows where Liu Hong knew the reputation of that Liangzhou filial piety, after he was promoted to filial piety and honesty into Beijing as a lang, the palace guard immediately greeted this person to discuss, and this person often spoke quite reasonably, and was good at making the emperor happy, so it can be said that he immediately entered the holy face. According to this situation, basically in the future, it will inevitably be because of the emperor, and he will go to a good place in a big state and county as an official, and then as long as he does not do badly, he will be promoted to an official career without worry.

If it was usual, when Zhang Rang saw this kind of person, he would inevitably try his best to win it over, but this Jia Wenhe, forget it, who doesn't know, this is the relative of Fuba County, who stole the local quota of Ba County and gave it to the young man in Liangzhou. No matter how stupid he is, he won't believe that this person has no intimate relationship with Fuquan, it doesn't matter, Fuquan will use the filial piety of this county to give people from other counties?

Although the current officialdom rules of the Han Dynasty are evolving day by day, and they don't care whether they recommend people from this county, but if you give the precious filial piety and Lianlang quota in this county to people from other counties, you will definitely be secretly condemned and criticized, Zhang Rang doesn't believe it, Fuquan will risk a bad reputation to give Xiaolianlang to people he doesn't know, not to mention that according to the news he got it, this Jia Wenhe was friendly with Fuquan's relatives when he was studying Taixue.

This is also the reason why Zhang Rang does not want Liu Hong to interview Jia Xu, after all, the more talents the emperor favors the Song family and the Fu family, the more difficulties they will have to help the He family ascend to the throne.

It's just that, obviously, Liu Hong didn't care about his thoughts, but he then smiled faintly: "Go, call Jia Wenhe." ”

"No!"

There was no other way, Zhang Rang could not disobey the emperor's wishes, so he could only smile bitterly and promise, and then walked to the place where Jia Xu was.

When Wang Meiren was pregnant, she was afraid of the future, but she took medicine to get rid of it, and the fetus was not moving, and she walked away from her dreams. For four years, he gave birth to the Emperor's Association, and then killed the beauty. The emperor was furious, and after he wanted to abolish it, the eunuchs insisted on stopping. Empress Dowager Dong self-support association, called Dong Hou.

Wang Meiren, Zhao Guoren also. Grandfather bud, facial features of the general. The beauty is plump, smart and talented, can write and accountant, and is selected to enter the court with a good family. Emperor Shu Xie lost his mother early, and thought of the beauty, and wrote "Chasing Virtue Fu" and "Ode to Lingyi".

Jia Shen, reburied the emperor's concubine Wang, called Queen Linghuai. Later, Handan people. Zu Bao Zhi Shangshu, for the five senses of the Lang [will]. The father is in the bud industry, and he is poor. There are two sons, the male is called Bin, and the female is Rong. Glory is also after that.
