Chapter 13 The True Thoughts of Emperor Liu Xin of the Han Dynasty

After dinner, Wang Mang motioned for Wang Shu to follow him to the study, and before Wang Huo could say anything, he took the initiative to ask him what he thought about the latest developments in the court. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, no matter how you look at it, Wang Shu is a political novice, if it weren't for the words he said to his father before he went to Chang'an, and the fact that he used the advantage of being familiar with history to write some "political situation commentary" in his letters from time to time during his time in Xindu, Wang Mang, an old driver, would not have been able to talk to him about these sensitive topics.

In fact, after entering May, Liu Xin, the son of heaven, mainly did only one thing, that is, to restore the names of the three dukes.

Sangong is the collective name of Da Sima, Da Situ and Da Sikong.

Due to the withering of the people's livelihood everywhere at this time, many "people of insight" in the DPRK and China began to advocate the resumption of the Zhou ceremony and engage in wells, so Liu Xin actively responded to the expectations of the masses and changed the prime minister to the great Situ and the imperial historian to the great Sikong.

This time, all the civil and military officials were happy and unanimously supported the supreme leader, and the opposition, including Wang Mang, also thought that the decision of the Son of Heaven was very famous.

Liu Xin saw that the effect was good, so he decided to make persistent efforts, that is, the official names were all learned from the Zhou Dynasty, and the specific work of the three princes should also be based on "Zhou Guan".

As a result, Kong Guang's work was changed from the prime minister who led hundreds of officials to assist the emperor in governing the state affairs to the chief situ in charge of civil affairs, which was equivalent to changing from the prime minister of ****** to the minister of civil affairs.

Regarding the position change, Kong Guang is much more obedient than Wang Jia, and what the leader says is what, and he resolutely supports the leader's arrangement wholeheartedly without discounting.

As for Peng Xuan, he was even more miserable, when he was a doctor of imperial history, his job was to supervise hundreds of officials, but after the official name became Dasikong, his job responsibilities became in charge of water and soil, which was only equivalent to the director of the Water Conservancy Committee in later generations.

However, Liu Xin, the emperor, has also been the emperor for many years, and he is still very good at face engineering, and he also gave Peng Xuan a marquis.

It is estimated that Peng Xuan also saw that the prime minister didn't let out a fart, although the Son of Heaven slapped himself, but he gave Changping Hou such a big sweet date, don't be unhappy.

As for Liu Xin's dearest Dong Xian, although he still only serves as the big Sima in charge of military affairs, the star is no longer that star.

In fact, some officials also discussed in private when they saw Liu Xin's practice, if you want to really restore the name of the three princes, you have to use Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao, this is the three princes who are serious about 800, but these words can only be said behind their backs.

What these officials didn't know was that if they were under the hands of the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Da Situ would be even more miserable, such as Han Xin, who was dismissed and held accountable to death because of his outspoken advice, and Ouyang She, Dai She, who took over the position of Da Situ, were finally executed by Liu Xiu.

As for why the Son of Heaven wanted to restore the names of the three dukes, Wang Shu used the words of the later Taizu to reveal the mystery.

"The Son of Heaven has obviously started to engage in the trick of the regime in the gun mark!"

Wang Mang is also a high-IQ politician, so when he heard Wang Shu say this, he could also feel that Liu Xin, the son of heaven, must have implied a deep meaning in this arrangement.

You must know that in peacetime, the imperial power is above all else, and the Son of Heaven is undoubtedly the supreme commander of the army, but when the imperial power is replaced, whoever is in the hands of the military power will have the greatest right to speak.

Especially after the Son of Heaven took back all the powers of the prime minister and the imperial historian, Dong Xian monopolized the duties of the Great Sima and General Wei, holding all the external and protective armies of the palace in his hands, and dominating among the ministers, which is really one person under ten thousand people.

To put it mildly, even if Liu Xin hangs up immediately, Dong Xian will rely on the identity of Da Sima, although whoever he supports may not be able to become the emperor, but who he has to oppose, who must not be the emperor.

In the end, Wang Shu used two sentences to completely define the matter of the Son of Heaven restoring the names of the three dukes.

"Therefore, the Son of Heaven's Fu "Zhou Guan" can only look beautiful to the common people!"

"In fact, Dong Xian is the only one who can really sing and be beautiful, as for the Son of Heaven, even if he has a Zen position for Dong Xian, it is estimated that he will only say 'He is good, and I am good'!"

……

Now that Wang Shu has guessed Liu Xin's thoughts, what the old Wang family should do next has become a top priority.

After all, this Dong Xian has never been in charge of the military, if the Son of Heaven hangs up in a few months, his great Sima will not be able to stand on a stable footing and will not be able to set off a big storm, but if the life of the Son of Heaven is dragged on for another three and five years, after Liu Xin's death, Dong Xian's power will definitely be greater than Huo Guang.

After learning of Liu Xin's intention to take Dong Xian's throne, Wang Mang was a little disheartened for a while, and even planned to say hello to the Son of Heaven directly and go back to the fiefdom to eat and wait for death.

But Wang Shu firmly disagreed, he didn't want to destroy the original historical process because of his own crossing, if that would make things worse.

Besides, seeing that there is still a month for the son of heaven will be a fart, if the father is gone at this time, it is very likely that his uncle Wang Li, who got into the eyes of money, will be on the throne as the big Sima, you must know that the Hongyang Marquis Wang Li recorded in history and the Eight Banners of the later generations have a comparison, he first forcibly occupied the ripe fields of the common people under the banner of building grasslands, and then sold these lands to the government as soon as he changed hands, and made 100 million money as soon as he entered and exited.

If it was really this guy who was famous for playing land speculation in history, it was estimated that it would not be long before the old Wang family would be unlucky, so Wang Shu tried his best to dissuade his father from staying in Chang'an for more time.

Influenced by the later palace coup TV series, Wang Shu is extremely concerned about the palace guards, and he doesn't want to have a little difference at this critical juncture.

As a result, I asked my father to know that the guard who served as the guard of Weiyang Palace was Dong Xian's hardcore, and the Changle guard was currently temporarily represented by his friend and fellow student guard Ling Yanyou.

Originally, I was thinking about where my aunt Wang Zhengjun got the confidence, and after the death of the Son of Heaven, he dared to go straight to Weiyang Palace and take back the jade seal of the country from Dong Xian's hands, this time I knew that my father had buried a secret chess in the palace, but what he said today was a bit too alarmist, and he wanted to return to Xindu after being hit too much for a while, even if he didn't persuade him today, he probably wouldn't think like this tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Wang Shu was also relieved, the palace is in the middle of the strict, as long as the father keeps an eye on the movements of Weiyang Palace, and invites his aunt and grandmother out at the critical moment, everything will be fine.

After talking about the matter, Dad began to ask about his next step, Wang Shougang wanted to say that he was going to talk about it in a month, who knew that Dad would give him Wei Zheng and Chen Yu in one sentence.

"Wen Fei will think of a way for him for his father, you will go to Taixue in three days, I have already found a teacher for you."

I originally wanted to take the opportunity to ask myself when I would get married, but when I heard my father say this, I lost interest at all.
