Chapter 449: The Liu Family
Beijing, Liufu.
As the leading Liu family courtyard in the capital, at this time, the study room in the front yard was brightly lit and full of people, several people were talking at night with candles, saliva was cross-winded, and the sound of disputes was endless, Liu Ce, who was on the main seat, looked coldly at the pretentious and invincible staff in the first five weekdays, and discussed for a long time without results, and his heart was filled with anger.
A group of waste, usually full of talents, is really only Zhao Kuo and the like.
Tiredly rubbed his forehead full of furrows, the forehead was wrinkled deeply, his eyes were bloodshot and crimson, since the grain and grass were destroyed, he had been unable to sleep peacefully for several nights, the quarrels above the court and the courtiers led by Chen Yuan, the second assistant of the cabinet, looked at them with extreme suspicion.
Or even the Holy .......
Thinking of this, Liu Ce closed his eyes again, his heart was even more irritated, and the feeling of powerlessness in his heart crept into his heart.
Everyone suspected that he had done all this. pedantic and ignorant, he doesn't have the ability to influence natural disasters, but it's a pity that ..... because of the last incident, he was inexplicably blamed.
After the grain urging officer from the northwest arrived in the capital, there was chaos in the imperial court, and he strongly advocated the suspension of the occupation of Xiuhe, but Chen Yuan, the old horseman, dared to oppose it, advocating to reduce expenditures and buy grain from the small countries in the south. The two sides almost started to act on this matter, but the saint did not make a decision for a long time, but instead disposed of the household department, which caught him off guard.
In any case, 100,000 grains and grass are gone, what a wrath the saint is, the Son of Heaven is angry and ambushes for hundreds of miles, not only a cadre of soldiers who escort grain and grass will be dealt with by military law, this fire also burned to the household department that allocated grain and grass, and the household department Shangshu was exiled from the house, and the officials of all sizes were dismissed.
This year, one of the six departments of the household department can be described as an eventful autumn, first last year when the grain and grass were burned, countless people were implicated, and this time because of the grain and grass affairs so that the entire household department was empty, and he finally broke the stable situation.
And this time, there was a big change of blood in the household department, and the vacancy was filled, but unfortunately the saint did not listen to the advice of the cabinet, and even bypassed him and directly transferred a group of officials from the household department from the local government to fill the vacancy.
Officials from all over the country have been promoted from the local government to households, and he has lost control of the household department, and his heart is bleeding.
Headache.
What's even more infuriating is Shi Tingyu's kid, his mind is tricky, he can't even figure out which step he will take, Liu Ce is inexplicably panicked in his heart, whether it is the grand occasion in the northwest and Liu Jiamin, or this time the big change of blood, there is a faint shadow of him behind him, this young man is becoming mature and powerful step by step, he is infiltrating his power little by little, weakening his power, and the Shi family is loyal to the saint for generations.
Alas! Lao Lao, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves are going to die on the beach.
Liu Zemo held the jade wrench on the female finger of his right hand, this was an inertial action of his thinking, and the high-grade mutton fat white jade became more smooth and smooth because of the perennial caressing, and it was clear under the candlelight. Liu Ce's worries got worse little by little, the people he secretly sent to the army were no longer heard from one by one, and the information in the army was getting less and less delivered to him day by day, and it seemed that it was time for the Shi family kid to leave the northwest.
No, Liu Ce suddenly opened his eyes, the essence flickered, the saint was riddled with illness, and he had not recovered for a long time, and he thought that it would be within one or two years, and there were only two princes in the saint so far, the eldest prince from the queen was demented and stupid, and the second prince from the noble lady was strong and intelligent.
Who will succeed him?
Liu Ce's heart was hot, his hands were clenched into fists and trembled, the young new emperor ascended the throne, and it was indispensable for them, the old sons and courtiers, to follow the work of dogs and horses.
As for Shi Tingyu, the child of the Shi family, dare to calculate on his head, the future life is terrifying!.
He will never forget the Shi family child who suddenly jumped down from the city tower when the six princes surrounded the imperial city and was about to add a dragon robe, the martial arts were so strong that they were outrageous, holding a sword in his left hand, wielding a knife in his right hand, his posture was like a pine, sharp as a bamboo, one person killed all the counter-soldiers who defended the city, and put the Shi family army that was surrounded outside the city into the city, and even took the lives of the six princes in the army with one arrow, and also cut off his work from the dragon.
Hateful, infuriating.
Such a person can't die for a while, so it's better to send it away.
Then, the war in the northwest must continue, and he must leave the book Arona to let him wander around the northwest border pass more.
How good is the northwest, the sky is high and the earth is wide, a horse is flat, the products are rich, and the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low.
After thinking about it, Liu Ce made a decision on the issues that were disputed in the court, whether the war was necessary to continue, of course, it would be a protracted war, and the reserve military supplies had to keep up, and the foreign thieves must be severely attacked to promote the prestige of our country.
Liu Ce stood up and condescendingly said to the five staff: "A few of you have worked hard, this is the end of today's discussion, let's go back and rest early." ”
The words were closed, and the five staff members who were originally arguing and discussing were silent at the same time, and Lord Shoufu asked them to go, how dare they not, and they all retreated respectfully and honestly, and they didn't even dare to look up at Liu Ce's face.
It was already raining outside the study, this autumn rain was continuous, endless, Liu Fugong stood outside the study and saw Liu Ce go out and immediately stepped forward, put the black and green brocade cloak in his hand for Liu Ce, and held an umbrella for Liu Ce, and his body was exposed to the rain for most of the year.
"The autumn cold dew is heavy, the lord is careful." Liu Fu reminded carefully, and followed the pace of the master step by step, and after they left, the four guards with knives behind them followed gently, and the two of them were four or five steps away.
"Hmm." Liu Ce responded lightly, his tone did not have the condescension and contempt for the staff just now, and his attitude towards the loyal servants who had followed him for decades was always different.
"Are Liu Zhong and Liu Qian back?"
"Liu Zhong has already returned this afternoon, and the old slave asked him to go back and wait, Liu Qian is still on the road, and he will be able to come back the day after tomorrow." Liu Fu replied cautiously, while carefully paying attention to the umbrella in his hand, for fear that the master would be stained with a little rain, and his big body would be wet.
"They've done a good job over the years, and they've worked hard for them." Liu Ce nodded and said, with appreciation in his tone.
"Being able to work for the Lord is what they should do." Liu Fu replied respectfully, with a faint pride in his tone, Liu Zhong and Liu Qian are both his sons, he is a slave, and he has five sons and two daughters, which can be regarded as many sons and many blessings, but now only Liu Zhong and Liu Qian are left, and the other three are either dead or disabled, and the two sons can be praised by the master for doing things for the master, and it is also the glory of him to be an old man.
He was given the surname Liu since he was a child, and his status in the Liu family was transcendent, from the master's mother, aunt, young master and girl, to all the slaves who saw him, they would be honored as a blessing steward, not only because he had been with the master for decades, but also because he had two powerful sons. Splendid good doctor
