Chapter 167: It's all under control

The family of Luoyang City, including the family of eunuchs and the family of gate valves. Among them, the gate valve family is more prominent, they are like the scholars of this era, the children of the gate valve family can enter the court without the imperial examination, the family covers the workers, peasants, scholars and merchants, and even the emperor can not interfere with the internal operation of the gate valve. A family of gate valves is like a small court, with its own laws and regulations. The family even had the power to be exempted from military service, and only had to pay taxes to the imperial court every year, which was also an important source of taxes for the imperial court.

Ordinary official families are much more low-key. In addition to the official family, there are people in the court who are officials, and the family cannot do business, and live on the court and land taxes. Although the children of the official eunuch family cannot directly enter the court, they can study in the tribute academy, and have a greater chance of getting ahead than ordinary people.

Han Jian has no prejudice against the gate valve family in Luoyang City, mainly because most of his aunts are also the daughters of the gate valve family born in Luoyang City. In other words, among Han Jian's many living "grandfathers", there are also heads of family members who are in the gate. Han Jian and the gate valve family are originally the same spirit, and their own people do not fight their own people.

But Han Jian didn't have a good impression of Lu Fengning in front of him, the Lu family had nothing to do with the Dongwang Mansion, and Han Jian didn't need to save face for the Lu family.

Han Jian directly ordered the expulsion, and Lu Fengning was unexpected. Based on Lu Fengning's understanding of the East King, although the East King is young and fledgling, he has a very strong city government, and the methods used to do things decisively are extremely ruthless, which can be said to be a ruthless character in the Wei Dynasty. In Lu Fengning's opinion, even if the East King didn't like him, he wouldn't show it, but he didn't expect to be coldly spoken by the East King as soon as he arrived here.

Lu Fengning thought: "The East King is still too young after all. There are means, but they like to be in shape. ”

Lu Fengning had a little contempt for Han Jian in his heart. But he always had a kind smile on his face, and said, "Why is the king of the east in such a hurry to refuse people thousands of miles away? This time, I came to the next place, mainly because His Majesty had just issued an order to let him take over the post of the young man of the Tingwei Mansion, and he came to inform the East King. ”

Han Jian raised his head and looked at Lu Fengning again, smiled coldly, and said, "Know?" ”

"I don't know." Lu Fengning's expression was slightly correct, and he said, "As far as I know, the term of office of the Imperial Commander's Mansion Shaofu is not long for several consecutive terms. If you close your eyes and listen to this, you will do this job. I believe that it will not be long before I will follow in the footsteps of several predecessors. Therefore, I would like to ask Dongwang some ways to be an official. ”

When Lu Fengning said this, Han Jian probably understood that Lu Fengning was at the beginning of his tenure. knows the "fate" of the previous Governor's Mansion Shaofu. Say hello to him first. As everyone knows. The two young mansions of the Tingwei Mansion, Hu Deming and Lu Zhe did not serve for long, and their downfall was related to the East King. Hu Deming was even removed from office and imprisoned for directly participating in the East King in front of the empress, although he was later released, he never had a chance to work in his life. Lu Zhe's situation is better, he is dismissed, and he still has the opportunity to be reused by the imperial court.

It is rumored outside that Dongwang is the "nemesis" of the Shaofu of the Tingwei Mansion, and Han Jian has also heard of this. The rumors among the people are all out of the mood, and he can't interfere with what the people like to spread. Han Jian didn't expect that because of some rumors among the people, the newly appointed Imperial Governor's Mansion and Shaofu actually came to ask him for advice on "the way to be an official".

Han Jianxin said that with Lu Fengning's attitude, where is asking for advice, it is clearly to put down Ma Wei, which is a bit of a challenge head-on.

Han Jian had a certain number in his heart, smiled, and said, "Your Excellency is too polite. Although this king is the king of the east, he has never been an official and has no experience in governance. In what this king thinks, the way of being an official is nothing more than cherishing the people and sharing worries for the court. Nothing else. ”

Han Jian specially added "there is nothing else" after cherishing the people and sharing worries for the court. seems to be saying to Lu Fengning, what do you want to ask about the way of an official, and if you ask, it will be in vain, there is only so much for me to say in official words, please reply.

Lu Fengning also smiled and arched his hand: "Dongwang's words have benefited a lot. In the future, we must keep in mind the teachings of the East King, do our best to serve as a court lieutenant and young man, and strive to complete this term. ”

After speaking, Lu Fengning got up, and walked away without even saying goodbye. That posture seemed chic, but it was actually very rude, which made Han Jian have the urge to go up and beat him.

Waiting for Lu Fengning to go downstairs, Han Jian looked at the comic book again, and he was in no mood, just like a mouse feces stirring up a pot of soup, Han Jian closed the comic book and prepared to go directly to Gu Mansion to find Gu Xin'er.

But at this time, Sima Yu came in a hurry, holding an official letter from the imperial court in his hand.

"Young boy, this is a letter from the imperial court just over, saying that there are new candidates for the young mansion of the Imperial Governor's Mansion and the Captain of the Guard's Office, and they will take office immediately." Sima borrowed to go upstairs, handed the official letter in his hand to Han Jian, and said at the same time.

Any movement in the imperial court will be issued to the local government in the form of an official letter, and the Dongwang Mansion also has a copy.

Han Jian's this was sent directly from the Shangting Office Fengchasi, which also reflected the importance that the imperial court attached to the Eastern Palace.

Han Jian glanced at the contents of the official letter, among which there were not a few new officials appointed by the imperial court this time, and among the two candidates of the most important imperial court governor's mansion, the young mansion and the guard guard, Lu Yan and a person named Zhou Che were among them. Lu Yan, the word Fengning, is the one Han Jian saw just now, because of Yang Xiuxiu's marriage, Han Jian investigated Lu Fengning, so he knew that there was such a person. As for the other Zhou Che, although Han Jian had not heard of it, he probably guessed that he was an important figure in the Zhou family, another gate valve family.

Han Jian thought to himself, although the king of the north did not rebel at the moment, he was not far from rebellion, and the Xianbei invasion was a signal. At this time, it is related to the two important links in Luoyang's defense and public security, and the empress chose to hand it over to the children of the gate valve family that she has always relied on, which can only be said that the empress is seeking stability.

Who are Zhou Che and Lu Fengning? They are the children of the family of gate lords, although they are noble, and their status in the court is not low, and it is "overkill" to place them with these two official positions, but in normal times, they are not qualified for such positions.

The captain of the guard station should be a military general, responsible for guarding the Luoyang city gate and internal defense, which belongs to the military position. The Tingwei Mansion Shaofu is responsible for the security of Luoyang and the criminal department of prison, which is also a job that non-specialists are not qualified for. The empress asked two young juniors of the master article to take over such an important position, except for allowing them to make a smooth transition, Han Jian couldn't think of any qualifications for them to serve in these two positions for three years. But at the beginning of his tenure, Lu Fengning came to him to show off his martial arts and ask him how to be an official.

Specifically, whether it is wrong for the empress to succeed these two positions with the children of two gate valve families, Han Jian is still hard to say. In the position of the empress, the empress is a family of gate valves on whom absolute trust is relied upon. But in Han Jian's position, Han Jian has reservations about these gate valve families.

When it comes to the issue of imperial power, these gate valve families have always seen the wind and steered, because the most important thing for the gate valve family is to preserve their own strength, and their political belief is not high, and whoever can make it develop steadily, they will turn the rudder to whom. In fact, this is also roughly similar to the situation of Han Jian, the king of the east, Han Jian is also comprehensively considered, the usurpation of the throne by the king of the north is obviously a greater threat to the king of the east than the queen who seeks stability, so Han Jian chose to stand on the side of the empress. The situation on the side of the gate valve must be the same as him?

"Go and investigate the situation of Lu Fengning and Zhou Che in detail." Han Jian instructed Sima Yi.

"Okay, I understand." Sima Yu smiled and said, "Also, young boy, what did you ask me to do last night...... It seems that there is no news about it yet......"

Han Jian glared at Sima Yu, sometimes, Sima Yi just wanted to show himself too much. Do good deeds, so as not to let people know, but "due to fate" let people know, this is the limelight. And to do bad things, how can there be a big fanfare for people to know? And what Han Jian asked Sima to do last night was a completely bad thing.

"If people don't know, they haven't heard of it unless they have done it? When I looked back, I remembered to give him the money that Huang Gongzi used to buy embroidery, and asked him to help with things, which only he could do. Han Jian said.

Although Sima Yi was nodding, he was a little disdainful of Huang Lie in his heart, what kind of ability did that kid have that only he could do?

As soon as Han Jian said what he had entrusted Huang Lie to do, Sima Yi was shocked: "Ah? Young boy, you let him ...... Go report us? ”

"It's not a report, it's a revelation."

Sima Yi asked: "Is it the same as last time, find someone to secretly reveal it to him, so that he thinks he found out?" ”

"It doesn't have to be so much trouble this time. Just ask him to do things. ”

Han Jian thought that since the empress knew so much about him, he simply didn't hide it this time. Anyway, when the empress learns that he is doing this, she will know very clearly that his purpose in doing this is to force the North King to a dead end. In such a special period, the king of the north was invaded by the Xianbei people in the north, and the imperial court was eyeing him in the south, and it was still a question whether he dared to rebel blatantly. Even if the king of the north has collusion with the Xianbei people, he must also consider the jackal heart of the Xianbei people. In the final analysis, the king of the north used such an incident as the invasion of the Xianbei people to recover the money and grain taken by the imperial court from the imperial court, which in Han Jian's eyes was a foolish thing to bring about his own destruction. The empress herself will not return all the money and food she has captured, and she will be pressed by the Xianbei people, which will put the northern king in a situation where she will be attacked on her back.

The king of the north thought that he had the initiative in the matter of rebellion, so he dared to collude with the Xianbei people so blatantly. But in the matter of rebellion, it is easier for the empress to take the initiative, because the empress has also prepared for more than ten years in order to prepare for the elimination of the threat of the northern king to the imperial court.

Han Jian got up and took the two comic books and went downstairs, because he had to accompany Gu Xin'er to send Jing'er back to Shangqing Palace that day, and the comic books were going to be taken back to Shangqing Palace for Jing'er to see.

Han Jian still has to maintain the attitude of a relaxed person as he has always been, so that people can't see through what he is doing. When the dust settles, others will know about his existence, and it is often too late at that time. (To be continued......)
