When Liu Ju first became the secretary of Dali Temple, because of Liu Hong's reform, in the eyes of people, it completely took away all the rights of Dali Temple. And to give him the name of Zongzheng is just to take care of his face.

But in the face of everyone's sighs, Liu Ju laughed at it. Because he knew quite well that Liu Hong's reforms, and the seemingly outcome of the trial, were all manipulated in the hands of the jurors. But in fact, the judge's attitude is the key to the verdict. They can influence the judgment of the jurors through the tone of their statements, and to a certain extent, let them pronounce the verdict according to their wishes.

Like a person who has committed a heinous crime, if the judge makes a statement in a tone of pity, it will induce sympathy among the jurors, and they will be able to give a relatively light result in the verdict. In the same way, a person who is not seriously wrong, by changing the tone of his statement, can also make the juror indignant and increase his punishment.

In this way, Liu Ju is like a fish in water in trial work. And what satisfied Liu Ju the most was that no matter how he affected the trial, there was no trouble. Because the whole Han knows that it is up to the jurors to decide how to decide.

The longer he has been doing this Dali Siqing, the more Liu Ju admires Liu Hong. After all, not everyone can come up with such a brilliant idea. Especially in his opinion, Liu Hong's arrangement of imperial power is even more admired. Being able to throw all his worries to others, and all the power, and all the power in his hands, is even better than the arrangement of his Dali Temple.

It's like right now, all the officials are busy like bastards. And Liu Hong went out to play in a chic manner. Don't worry about those political affairs, because those political affairs are all handled properly by those busy and bastard-like officials. In his opinion, this is simply not something that mortals can do. So, to be called by such a "man of God". He didn't dare to stay for a moment, so he got on the train overnight and rushed towards Chang'an. And early the next morning, he appeared in front of Liu Hong.

"Uncle Huang, why did you come so soon?"

Liu Hong, who had been holding back for so many days, finally returned to the land. So, after he appeased Ding Lori for a night. deliberately got up early in the morning, wanting to take advantage of the absence of Liu Ju to do a good job with his concubines. But unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he saw Liu Ju standing in front of him.

Seeing Liu Hong, who was taken aback, Liu Ju was very proud. "Your Majesty's summoning of Weichen must be a big event. How dare Wechen delay, plus Chang'an has a train here, which is very convenient, so Wechen came by train overnight. ”

"Uncle Huang, there's no need to be in such a hurry! You're that old. Rushing more than 700 miles overnight, how can I bear it! As he spoke, Liu Hong held Liu Ju, "Uncle Huang, don't say anything, hurry up and go to the main hall to rest first." ”

"Your Majesty, it's not in the way, it's not in the way." Liu Hong's attitude. Liu Ju was quite moved, "It's very comfortable on the train, Weichen is on it, but I slept beautifully all night." ”

"It's not okay to sleep all night, you're so old, let's rest first." Liu Hong didn't allow Liu Ju to distinguish anymore, so he directly helped him to the main hall.

"Your Majesty. Summoned Wechen, what is it for, just say, Wechen is really fine. "Liu Ju is not here to rest. So as soon as he sat down, he couldn't wait to speak.

Seeing that Liu Ju really didn't look like he had something to do, Liu Hong was no longer polite, "Uncle Huang, I invite you here, mainly to discuss with you about the succession to the throne and the reform of the clan." ”

"About the succession to the throne and the reform of the clan?!" I already knew that if Liu Hong summoned him, it would not be a trivial matter. But after listening to Liu Hong's words, Liu Ju was still taken aback. However, Liu Ju had seen too many storms, so he quickly regained his composure, "Your Majesty, this kind of thing Weichen doesn't dare to interject indiscriminately." What do you mean, say it, Wechen can help you with your staff. ”

"Uncle Huang, you know it too. The current system of succession to the throne is completely chaotic, and such a situation is not a blessing for the country. As he spoke, Liu Hong looked at Liu Ju and said, "So, let's think of formulating an effective system and completely changing it." ”

Liu Ju thought about it, what Liu Hong said was really the truth. Although the Han Dynasty now seems to be dominated by the inheritance of the eldest son, it is not uncommon for other princes to succeed to the throne. Who ascends the throne almost depends on who can win the emperor's favor. In this way, for the throne, then the fight is inevitable. However, all this cannot be carried out openly, which causes all kinds of tricks to fly all over the sky, which is completely hurtful to others and oneself.

In Liu Ju's view, this kind of competition between princes is not the most terrifying. It's like the situation of the previous dynasties where the emperor had no queen, and if one didn't get it right, the power would completely fall into the hands of others.

But it makes sense, this kind of thing, he didn't dare to speak casually, so he could only echo it casually, "Your Majesty, what you said is very right." This is a major issue that has a bearing on the future of the country, and it is necessary to establish a system. ”

Liu Hong is very clear about Liu Ju's worries. Therefore, he didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point, "Inheriting the throne is a big deal, and if it's not good, it will be the end of the destruction of the country and the demise of the nation." So, in order to be responsible for the state, to be responsible for the clan. I feel that the selection of the heir to the throne must not be the kind of primogeniture inheritance based on seniority, and the best must be selected. ”

"How do you choose the best of the best?"

"This is where I discussed with Uncle Huang." Hearing Liu Ju's question, Liu Hong smiled, "I think that if you want to choose the best of the best, then this inheritance right must be open to all princes." Develop a unified system so that they can compete openly. Everything is done in the sun, so that they can avoid using secret tricks to hurt the family relationship. And if you can win the competition, your ability will not be too bad, and you should be able to take charge of the country. ”

"Your Majesty, your idea is already very good, where do you need to discuss it with Wei Chen?"

"Uncle Huang, you are too awarded." In the face of Liu Ju's politeness, Liu Hong said directly: "There are many things that need to be discussed for such a major matter." For example, what systems to formulate, how to implement these systems, how to supervise what, all of these need to be discussed and formulated! ”

"Your Majesty, since you believe in Weichen so much, Weichen will talk about it." Seeing the sincerity on Liu Hong's face, Liu Ju also opened his heart, "The selection of heirs is a major matter, and in terms of implementation and supervision, Your Majesty can set up a special agency to carry out this matter, and this is not difficult to do." In Weichen's view, the establishment of this system is fundamental, and all aspects must be taken into account. ”

After listening to Liu Ju's words, Liu Hong nodded for a while, "What Uncle Huang said is, I don't know what you have to teach me in this regard?" ”

"Your Majesty, in Weichen's opinion, everything is easy to do when there is a prince. It's nothing more than a matter of identifying who wants to compete for the throne, and then arranging a transparent and fair assessment for them, no big deal. Looking at Liu Hong, who nodded, Liu Ju said again: "The most important thing is the situation of Emperor Chong, Emperor Qin and Emperor Huan in previous dynasties, because the emperor has no heirs, it directly makes the power fall side. This thing must be stopped by finding a way. ”

"Yes, I've taken that into account. I plan to solve this problem together by determining the system this time. "With such a big hidden danger, how could Liu Hong stay any longer, so he said: "My initial plan is that once the emperor is over forty years old and still has no heirs, or if there is a situation where the emperor dies early, let the emperor's close relatives participate in the assessment, and then select a qualified emperor." ”

"Sure enough, the emperor is a precautionary character, and he has already thought about everything."

Liu Ju, who was already a little blindly admired Liu Hong, listened to Liu Hong's words, which confirmed this even more. And in this way, he can rest assured to talk about his views and let Liu Hong refer to them.

"Alas, this ginger is still old and spicy."

Listening to Liu Ju's views, Liu Hong's train of thought was opened at once. In this way, through continuous discussions with Liu Ju, Liu Hong finally came up with a general framework for the system of succession to the throne. For the rest, just fill in the content according to this framework.

"Uncle Huang, about the system, we have almost discussed it. However, no matter how good the system is, it still needs to be implemented. In my opinion, how to ensure the implementation of this system is the key to the problem. ”

"Your Majesty, this problem is not difficult to solve." Faced with this problem, Liu Ju said confidently: "For such an important issue, it is absolutely past to set up a department for it." And as long as there is a special department, won't this problem be solved? ”

Listening to Liu Ju's words, Liu Hong shook his head. He felt that it was not a good idea to set up a special department. Let's not talk about whether it is cost-effective to set up a special department for the sake of something that will not take long. As soon as this department was established, the personnel were determined. In this way, those who are good at exploiting loopholes may directly find a way for these people. Therefore, the establishment of a special department, in Liu Hong's view, is quite uneconomical.

"Uncle Huang, in my opinion, it is better to set up a special department, and it is better to let your Zongren Mansion be in charge. After all, the succession to the throne is also a major event for our royal family. It is also reasonable that the Zongren Mansion is in charge. ”

"Your Majesty, this can't be done!" Listening to Liu Hong's words, Liu Juzhi shook his head, "If this is the case, the power of the Zongren Mansion will be too great." In this way, if there is a scheming Zongzheng, there will be problems. (To be continued.)
