Chapter 8 Obstruction of the Deliberations
In September, the frost fell in the morning, and there were still white marks on both sides of the street. The temperature in this era was much lower than in later generations, and there were many pedestrians rubbing their hands and stamping their feet while walking on the street.
In fact, there is another group of people who are earlier than them, and that is the officials who are coming to the early dynasty today.
Many people who do not understand the workings of the court government are often misled by the scenes depicted in novels and TV dramas.
When the emperor, no matter if there is something or not, every morning at five watches, he has to leave the hot quilt and the arms of the concubine to "go to the court".
In many novels, it is described that the emperor and ministers, of course, including palace maids, eunuchs, guards, servants and other related personnel, must get up at the third watch and carefully groom and dress.
In fact, this is all misleading by literary artists. Writers who write novels and directors of TV series, in fact, they themselves don't know how the emperor handles the government.
When there is a major national event to discuss, the emperor is always invited to the Jinluan Palace to "listen to the government". Actually, the emperor's office is not like that!
The ministers have long remembered clearly, when was the last time Emperor Ling announced the early dynasty, and about the time when Empress He ascended the throne?
The regulations of the Han Dynasty were to go to the court at the time of the Mao Dynasty and handle official business, and when the sun was just now, various orders could be issued in time, and the so-called Dianmao came from here.
Emperor Ling didn't sleep well last night, and he felt depressed in his heart, the little Xianbei people had already grown, and even the Han army had been defeated and lost year after year, but he couldn't swallow this breath without revenge.
In the midst of boredom, he ate the pill offered by Fang Shijin, and suddenly felt that the dragon spirit was fierce, and he fought five little palace maids in a row.
Seeing that the time of the previous dynasty had long passed, Zhang Rang and the others had been walking anxiously outside the dormitory.
However, he said that the ministers all handled official affairs in their own yamen, and they did not usually meet each other, and this kind of rare court was the time to exchange feelings with each other.
"Lord Jin, do you know what happened to the Holy Lord today, reopening the early dynasty?"
"It turned out to be Lord Qin. We haven't received any information from our servants, so is there another war? ”
"Alas, the border alarms are frequent, either Xianbei is coming, or Xiqiang is rioting, and the barbarians everywhere are not following the rules."
"The two adults are calm down, our Taiwei Mansion has obtained a different explanation. However, please don't talk about it? ”
"But he said that the one surnamed Zhao in the palace, well, you all know it. His caravan was destroyed in Saibei. ”
"I see, no wonder the emperor can't sit still, I heard that he still gave money inside."
"Let him give money? Dream. It's always just the money that goes in, when have you ever seen the money come out? ”
"Be cautious, the wall has ears. However, Lord Jiang is reasonable, and it is estimated that he will ask the following counties to contribute money and grain. ”
Sangong Jiuqing didn't say a word, although some people also knew the inside story in advance, and at their level, they didn't speak easily.
The subordinate officers below exchanged their heads with each other. It is inevitable that there is no division of grades now, and the smallest officials are also at the level of Huangmen Squire, Cavalry Captain, and Zhonglang General.
Only one person seemed a little abrupt, always there without moving. There was no one around who deliberately approached it.
He is the newly promoted Henan Yin Hejin, the eldest brother of the empress, the emperor's brother-in-law.
Amidst the suspicions of various officials, Emperor Ling finally slowly sat on the dragon chair, and there was a sudden silence below.
No kidding. If someone speaks at this time and is heard, it is difficult to ensure that people's heads do not fall to the ground.
"Ladies and gentlemen." Emperor Ling was short of breath when he spoke, but fortunately, he could hear clearly in the palace: "Recently, the Xianbei Hu people have bullied my Han too much, slaughtering innocent people. ”
"In the autumn and winter of many years, they have come to the frontier to harass, I don't know what your good plan is."
The scene suddenly became very strange, and the officials looked at each other, and they didn't even have an atmosphere.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not." He Jin finally couldn't help it, and for the first time in public, he had to support the emperor's brother-in-law.
"He Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Emperor Ling smiled like a flower in his heart, and he was still reliable at the critical moment.
"My Han Dynasty has just been established, the Huns attacked the border every year, and when Emperor Wu was in power, Wei Qinghuo went deep into the hair, so that the Hu people did not dare to go south." I have to say that He Jin still put in a lot of effort.
"Although there have been defeats in recent years, the territory of our Han Dynasty is vast, which is beyond the comparison of just Hulu. When it is, it is necessary to emulate filial piety and send one or two generals who can fight well to attack the royal court! ”
People in this era pay special attention to filial piety, and in front of the name of the late emperor, they must add a word of filial piety in front of the name of the deceased emperor.
He thought that he was right, and in the end he was even infected, and he couldn't wait to go into battle in person and create a prestige for all generations.
"Lord He, refresh!" Zhang Wen, the big farmer next to him, gently stroked his palm: "I don't know if the horses, weapons, and military rations have been complete." ”
As a big farmer, he is in charge of the country's agricultural affairs, but the tax has never come from him.
Now the most popular donors, the money has reached the internal funds, and I have never seen a single gold.
The most important thing is that his nephew died in an unknown way, didn't Zhao Zhong protect the Zhending Zhao family? Here's a slap in the face.
The emperor doesn't dare to mess with it, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't dare to mess with your relatives, what's the big deal? It's just a pig killer who climbed up with his sister.
"Lord Zhang's words are extreme, "Imperial history Liu Tao even dares to offend eunuchs, not to mention your uncle:" Lord He was born in a wealthy family, and recently I heard that many people are asking officials to come to you, and they are making money every day. ”
Back then, someone once said that before Empress He entered the palace, her brother gave money to the eunuchs to have a quota, and at this time he took it out to make a sarcasm.
"It's extreme," Zhang Wen secretly praised in his heart, or Yushi beat the snake and hit seven inches, and immediately grasped the main point: "I wait for the money I need, but the capital of the expedition the year before last, 90 million gold." ”
He Jin panicked for a while, never thinking that he was originally cheering for the emperor, but accidentally became a target.
"Don't be impatient for a while," Emperor Ling's face sank, and he quickly stopped the topic: "Lord He is in a commendable mood, all my big men should try their best to resist external insults, why do they have internal strife?" ”
Even so, he had no choice but to let it go lightly and continued to ask: "Ladies and gentlemen, seeing that winter is coming, am I so good that I have to be bullied by Xianbei people?" ”
His eyes looked over one by one, but when he saw that everyone lowered their heads, they didn't answer at all.
Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on Taifu Yuan Kui, and he felt that there was a spectrum.
The Yuan family is now married to the Zhending Zhao family, the Zhending Zhao family is friendly with the Anping Zhao family, and the Anping Zhao family caravan was slaughtered in Yanbei, can the Yuan family sit idly by.
"Taifu, is it appropriate for Lord Yin He of Henan to think so?" Emperor Ling no longer asked for advice on whether to send troops or not, and threw the question out of the question.
"Your Majesty, Weichen is very worried." No matter how old Yuan Kui is, he has to express his position.
"Yesterday, the old minister traveled to the west and saw Xia Yu, like a farmer."
He didn't directly say anything against it at all, Xia Yu, Zang Min, Tian Yan the year before last, and the three-way army crusaded against Xianbei at the same time, and returned defeated, and was directly dismissed and demoted to a concubine.
Emperor Ling's face changed again and again, and he couldn't stop sighing in his heart, he had a miscarriage this morning. (To be continued.) )
