"What has Your Majesty been studying lately?"

"I just asked Zhong Yuanchang a few days ago for some of the laws of my Han Dynasty, and I have focused on learning some "Xunzi" these days. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Chu Yi's expression was a little careless: "The ancients: Take copper as a reference, but you can be dressed properly; Taking the past as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall. If you still have leisure, Your Majesty may wish to read some history books, such as the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Policy, Historical Records and Han Books. More recently, for example, the history of the Han Dynasty of our dynasty that Cai Bojiao is organizing and compiling recently, you can also read it. ”

"Yes, I see." Liu Xie nodded, and then said with some excitement, "In addition to Dong Qian's preparations, how is Chu Shilang's preparations?" ”

Chu Yi sighed: "Hey...... The minister is still talking, mainly because the families are not very cooperative. ”

Liu Xie's little face puffed up slightly: "What do they not cooperate?" ”

Chu Yi then told the lion of the family to open his mouth, afraid that Liu Xie would not understand the exchange of some power, Chu Yi also made some explanations.

Liu Xie was furious when he heard half of it: "Didn't Confucius say that those who are ministers should be loyal to the monarch and assist the country? How is their behavior different from that of robbers? ”

Chu Yi was already upset about this matter, and when he heard Liu Xie's naïve remarks, he was a little impatient: "Do they owe you?" ”

"Huh?" Liu Xie was stunned.

"Ahem......" Chu Yi, who noticed his gaffe, coughed dryly, and continued, "The minister said that people are born as villains, and mercenary is their nature. ”

Liu Xie blinked: "Then why do you have to have their help, can't you just kill Dong Zhuo?" ”

"If Your Majesty can be a few years older, or if the Queen Mother of the Harem is still alive and supports Your Majesty, then you don't have to pay attention to those families...... But now His Majesty is still young, has no prestige, and it is difficult for him to govern himself. There was no help from the court. So now I have to rely on the family...... The minister has been talking to them about the distribution of power after getting rid of Dong Zhuo these days, and the minister will try his best to seek the greatest benefit for His Majesty. ”

If Liu Xie was a few years older and had the ability to govern in person, Chu Yi would not have to work so hard.

Liu Xie bit his lip: "Then what is our bottom line?" ”

Chu Yi said in a deep voice: "The bottom line is military power!" The power of the army must be in our hands! ”

Liu Xie nodded, with Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Liu Xie also knew the importance of military power, without military power, he, the emperor, was just a puppet to be slaughtered.

"By the way, there is another matter, which I will also ask Your Majesty to do in the future."

"What's the matter?"

"Reactivate the eunuchs."

Liu Xie was taken aback: "Eunuch? Why? ”

Although he knew that the disturbance in the world was not all done by the eunuchs, after all, the eunuchs had a bad reputation, and the world was in chaos, and the people exposed the rods, and the eunuchs also had an unshirkable responsibility.

"I remember that Chu Aiqing told me about the problem of eunuchs before, although the root cause of the turmoil in the world is not because of eunuchs. However, the ten permanent servants and others let their children and guests pawn in the state and county, and invaded the people. So why use eunuchs anymore? ”

"Because they are loyal enough, because they can balance the power of the scholars!" Chu Yi said solemnly, "What's more, although the children of eunuchs are rampant, the children of the family are also like this. There isn't much difference between the two. For example, has Your Majesty ever heard of Zhao Bao? ”

Liu Xie tilted his head and thought for a while, then shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”

"Zhao Bao is a powerful person, and he was the Taishou of Liaoxi when he was the first emperor. When he was the Taishou of Liaoxi, he sent people to pick up his mother and wife, but he was taken hostage by the Xianbei people. At that time, the Xianbei people used a car to carry Zhao Bao's mother and wife to attack Liaoxi, although Zhao Bao was sad, but refused to surrender, but led the army to break the Xianbei people. His mother and wife were also killed by the Xianbei people. ”

Zhao Bao reported the matter to the first emperor and asked to return to the township to bury his mother. The first emperor also sent an envoy to comfort him and named him a neighbor, but Zhao Bao blamed himself for indirectly killing his mother. He said to the villagers, 'It is not loyal.' Killing one's mother is not filial piety. If so, what is the face of the world? So he vomited blood and died. Your Majesty, what do you think of this person? ”

Liu Xiechang sighed: "It's really loyal and filial!" ”

Chu Yi smiled slightly: "However, this Zhao Bao is Zhao Zhongzhi's younger brother. ”

"Zhao, Zhao Zhong?"

"That's right, it's Zhao Zhong, the head of the ten permanent servants. It can be seen that the eunuchs' relatives may not be in the township. And vice versa, the children of the family may not benefit one party. There may be more evildoers in the eunuchs' relatives, but as long as Your Majesty is clear and strictly restrains these people, it will be fine. And His Majesty doesn't have any help at the moment, no relatives, no harem mothers. It can be said that the scholars are dominant. If the scholars are dominant, they will be corrupted, and they will also give rise to party strife, harm each other, and bring disaster to the court. There has to be forces that can balance them. ”

"Whew...... I see. Liu Xiechang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Every time I talk to Aiqing, I always benefit a lot." ”

“…… It is the honor of the minister that His Majesty can gain something. Chu Yi smiled, "There is one more thing I want to tell Your Majesty." ”

"What's the matter?"

"The families are looking for a candidate for the queen for Your Majesty."

"What?" Liu Xie was taken aback, and then shouted, "Who asked them to find me the queen?" I, I ......"

Chu Yi said lightly: "Only in this way can I settle the heart of the family, Your Majesty is smart, and you should also understand this truth." ”

Liu Xie's face was wrinkled, gritting his teeth, with an expression of wanting to cry: "Then, what about Shou'er?" ”

"Shou'er?" Chu Yi was stunned for a while, "Is Your Majesty talking about Fu Guiren?" ”

Fu Shou was elected to the court and became a nobleman soon after moving the capital to Chang'an, but Liu Xie knew that his father was obsessed with beauty and had a bad reputation. Moreover, Chu Yi also criticized the previous emperors many times for being nostalgic for women and abandoning the government. Therefore, Liu Xie never dared to talk about the harem in front of Chu Yi. So Chu Yi never remembered Fu Shou, the queen who was imprisoned by Cao Cao and died in the future.

"Hey...... Your Majesty, there are many things in the world that cannot be done casually, and there are many things that cannot be helped. Chu Yi sighed, "Your strength is too weak now, I'm afraid there are some things that you can't decide......"

“……”

Liu Xie didn't speak, his fists clenched, tears of humiliation swirled in his eyes, even his queen had to be decided by others, and he had to accept it.

After a while, Liu Xie hissed: "What should I do to not be at the mercy of others?" ”

"If you want to control your own destiny, become stronger. Xun Yu Zhong Xuan has the ability to go through the world, you have to learn from the two of them. After a few years, after His Majesty is crowned, he will be able to initially pro-government. At that time, the ministers will assist His Majesty, little by little, to take back all the power of the Son of Heaven. ”

According to the etiquette, the Son of Heaven can be crowned after the age of twelve.
