Chapter 103: The Minister of the Humerus
At the same time that Liu Jiang came out of Zhang Rang's mansion.
Jiang had already led a huge convoy to the palace.
Jiang had already sent Yu Linwei to inform Liu Hong in advance.
As soon as I heard that there was a large amount of gold, silver, money, and jade jewelry, it was transported outside the palace. Liu Hong, who was having fun in the West Garden, put down the game and hurriedly walked out of the palace with the honor guard.
Liu Hong is almost obsessed with money, and for him, as long as you give him money, you can say anything.
Money really can do everything.
A few years ago, Liu Hong recruited a woman in the people, with white skin and beautiful appearance, and Liu Hong named him Wang Beauty.
After Liu Hong got Wang Meiren, the pink delicacy in the harem lost a little color, and he loved her alone.
It didn't take long for Wang Meimei to give birth to a son for Liu Hong, that is, the Prince's Association. Liu Hong is even more fond of Wang Meiren.
Queen He, who was alone in the empty palace, couldn't stand it, and gave full play to the jealous nature of women, and took advantage of Liu Hong's absence in the harem to blatantly poison Wang Meiren.
After Liu Hong received the news, the anger in his heart can be imagined. Vowed to abolish Empress Ho.
But at this time, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong pleaded with Queen He and took out 10 million money. The shocking anger of Liu Hong subsided because of the 10 million money. and did not punish Queen He.
In the end, he just sent Liu Xie to the Empress Dowager Dong to raise, for fear that Liu Xie would be poisoned by Empress He.
It may be that Liu Hong was not wealthy when he was a child, and he did not get rid of this bad habit after becoming the emperor.
is not only Liu Hong, Liu Hong's mother Empress Dowager Dong, Liu Hong's nursing mother also loves money like life.
Liu Hong's mediocre practice of selling official mantles was instigated by Empress Dowager Dong and Zhongchang Servants.
The imperial court publicly announced that it could spend money to buy the titles of Marquis from Guannai and the positions of the government officials under Guangluxun, such as Huben and Yulin; And Liu Hong then contacted and bought the positions of Sangong Jiuqing through his cronies, such as Zhongchang waiter, nurse and others, the price of Sangong was 10 million yuan, and the price of Jiuqing was 5 million yuan. Later, it developed to the point that even officials normally appointed by the imperial court had to go to the West Garden and pay half or one-third of the fee before they could take office.
This kind of selling officials with a clear price makes most of the ministers of the Han Dynasty flashy and unrealistic, and there are very few people who are really talented.
After Liu Hong became an adult, he built the West Garden for his own enjoyment. Liu Hong spent all the money obtained from the sale of officials in the construction of the West Garden. The money that can't be spent, he goes into his own vault, and what he thinks of in the future, what to buy.
"Your Majesty."
After Liu Hong's guard of honor arrived. Everyone at the gate of the palace prostrate on the ground one by one.
"Aiqing, where is my money?" Liu Hong got off the guard of honor and asked Jiang Ji, who was kneeling down at the lead.
"Open all the boxes for Your Majesty to see." Jiang immediately got up and said to the soldiers escorting the car in a throat.
Receiving the order, the soldiers got up one after another and opened the boxes on the cart one by one.
Hundreds of ironclad tigers opened the way, and the tigers passed, and the soldiers under Cao Cao retreated very interestingly.
Hundreds of cars, Liu Hong walked by one by one. Satisfaction is written on the face.
"Liu Fan is really my humerus's minister. Deeply rooted in my heart. Liu Hong said excitedly.
"Your Majesty, there is better news for you." Jiang immediately followed Liu Hong and said to him.
"Tell me about it." Liu Hong disagreed. Said absent-mindedly.
There was nothing more important to him than to receive so much gold and silver.
"Captain Huben has been in six cities in five days, and now Yingchuan has been pacified, and the heads of the Yellow Turban thieves in Yingchuan have also been brought back, do you want to look at it." Jiang said happily Liu Hong.
"I have written down the merits of Captain Huben, and I will reward him tomorrow. As for the head of the Yellow Turban thief, let people hand it over to the General's Mansion! Liu Hong hurriedly waved his hand and said, frowning.
Liu Hong, who has always been pampered, can't accept the heads in front of him.
As for the news of Liu Fan's pacification of Yingchuan, Liu Hong was overjoyed, after all, Yingchuan belongs to the gateway of Luoyang.
"Zhao Changshi, move all these gold and silver treasures to the West Garden, and carefully count the quantities." Liu Hong said to an old eunuch behind him.
He is a regular servant of Zhao Zhong, and he is also the Great Changqiu, and his notoriety and power are slightly inferior to Zhang Rang.
"The old minister obeys." Zhao Zhong saluted Liu Hong, and then went to arrange for the car to enter the West Garden.
"You have been in Yingchuan for so long, can you understand Liu Fan thoroughly?" Watching the cars drive towards his West Garden one by one, Liu Hong also enjoyed it. In his spare time, he asked Jiang Ji.
As soon as he heard Liu Hong's words, Jiang Ji's tears flowed out at once, and he choked up and told Liu Hong what he had seen and heard on this trip. Including why Liu Fan didn't kill the Yellow Turban captives, and even told Liu Hong that Liu Fan spread the prestige of the Son of Heaven everywhere in Yingchuan counties. The half-broken Yingchuan County is taken care of in an orderly manner. The people are grateful.
Because of these gold, silver and money, Liu Hong already had a very good impression of Liu Fan, and Jiang immediately told in tears. Liu Hong was convinced of Liu Fan's loyalty, and even hoped that Liu Fan would appear in front of him immediately. He wanted to see what this person who could lift two thousand catties looked like?
"Liu Fan is really my clansman, and he can really share my worries." Liu Hong looked up to the sky and sighed.
"Your Majesty, this is the book that Captain Huben Liu Fan Tuochen brought to you, please take a look." Jiang wiped away his tears, took out a letter, and respectfully handed it to Liu Hong.
Liu Hong took the recital and opened it.
Liu Hong was in a very good mood at this time, and unexpectedly did not get tired of playing books as usual.
Instead, he carefully browsed the book written by Liu Fan for him.
Liu Hong couldn't take his eyes off it, the more he looked at it, the more energetic he became, his face was red. This kind of distraction-free action is estimated to be the only time in Liu Hong's life.
"If the courtiers in the world have half of the heart of Liu Fan, the captain of the tiger school, there will be no Zhang Jiao's disciples." After reading the letter, Liu Hong silently closed it.
It seems that the world of the Han Dynasty still depends on his own family. Later, Zong Zheng will be called to check Liu Fan's seniority, as long as the seniority is not older than himself, why not recognize Liu Fan as a nephew?
Zong is one of the nine Qings, a relative of Zhangzong Temple.
The Eastern Han Dynasty Jiuqing refers to: Taichang, Guangluxun, Weiwei, Taifu, Tingwei, Dahonglu, Zongzheng, Dasinong, and Shaofu. Jiuqing is divided into three divisions.
Taichang, Guangluxun, Weiwei Sanqing and Taiwei Department.
Taifu, Tingwei, Dahonglu Sanqing and Situ Department.
