The main purpose of expounding on the official system and the work system of the Han Dynasty was to explain Liu Hou's method of making things bad. As the emperor, Liu Hou can't be blatantly bad, even if he wants to be bad, he must be unaware, at the very least, he can't let people find faults.

Therefore, the emperor is not so easy to do, in the face of the court, the power of public opinion, especially the right to write history, can not be wrong at all. If you offend the Wenchen and are caught by the Wenchens, it will be miserable to let these people compose a few poems and make a satirical meal.

If you meet a talented person and make poems that have been passed down through the ages, then your "famous name" will also be passed down through the ages. There are many such examples in history, such as Bai Juyi's "Song of Long Hatred", Tang Xuanzong Li Longji was completely nailed to the historical pillar of shame of misleading the country.

A sentence "The spring night is bitter and the day is short, and the king will not rise early from now on." It vividly describes Li Longji's indulging in singing, dancing and wine all day long. Later generations then knew that after he got Yang Guifei, he lived a life of indulgence ~ lust and pleasure, so that he ignored the government and politics, which eventually led to the Anshi Rebellion and the decline of the Tang Dynasty.

As an emperor, no one wants to be "sung through the ages" like this, what is even more terrifying is that the historians are also a member of the civil officials, and some historians are as stinky and hard as the stones in the pit, they will not obey the emperor's orders to tamper with the historical records, but record whatever facts there are, and even record the emperor's words and deeds, and call it "living notes".

In this case, Liu Hou had to be cautious in his words and deeds, he felt that after becoming the emperor, he was not as free and easy as before, not only did he not have freedom of action, but even freedom of speech was restricted. However, just because there are limits doesn't mean he can't do it. As the emperor holds the greatest authority in the world, he still has many ways to deal with the "opposition" ministers.

The key is to think of a good way to make people unreasonable, and the way he thinks of now is to start rectifying the ministers from the rules, which is a dignified and upright way, which can also be said to be a conspirator, even if it is seen through, people have nothing to say, because they stand on the righteousness and occupy the reason, so even if they are unwilling in their hearts, they can't disobey and support it in their mouths.

Liu Hou's method is very simple, that is, to take strict work discipline. As mentioned last time, according to the regulations of the imperial court, after going to court in the morning, the courtiers still have to go back to their respective official offices in the afternoon to sit in the hall and go to work. However, the reality is that these ministers tend to skip work to do their own business when there is no emergency to deal with.

Their subordinates and deputies also know that their top bosses have worked hard, and if they don't encounter something too urgent, they won't disturb the rest of their top bosses at this time, and they will usually keep things and report them tomorrow.

In the past few days, Liu Hou changed the time of the court, so that the courtiers had to get up in the middle of the night, and in the afternoon, they couldn't hold it anymore, and their eyelids would fight unconsciously. In this case, even if they are asked to go to work, they can't do anything, so they all want to skip work and go home to sleep.

Liu Hou wants to rectify them, but he doesn't let them rest well. He summoned Guo Youzhi, found a secluded place in the palace, avoided the living room, taught him face-to-face, and taught him to do this, so, and so~ things. After Guo Youzhi listened to Liu Hou's strategy, he was overjoyed, after all, he supported Guan Xing's faction, and now that the emperor handed over this matter to him, he would have the opportunity to rectify those who were against him.

Liu Hou first asked Guo Youzhi to draft an edict, the content of which was about strict work discipline, and the holy decree said that I heard that some officials of the yamen had poor work discipline recently, and there was a widespread phenomenon of late arrival and early departure, and even worse, some people relied on their high positions and powers, did not pay attention to the discipline of the imperial court, and often missed work.

Then, in the holy decree, Liu Hou persuaded him step by step, that it was now a difficult autumn for the country, the world was not yet peaceful, the great cause of restoring the country was only halfway underway, the revolution had not yet succeeded, and the comrades still needed to work hard.

Then, he greatly praised and praised the Confucian children, saying that the Confucian children who had read the books of the sages were all living Lei Feng, oh no, there was no concept of living Lei Feng at that time, it should be said that they were all good comrades who served the people, and they were all good officials who were worried about the worries of the world and happy after the world, and they should become examples for the people of the world and take the lead in abiding by work discipline.

After some nonsense, the final of the holy decree finally showed its fangs, and said with a dagger: In order to strictly enforce work discipline, from now on, send an inspection team to a yamen to picket discipline, first, to urge everyone to strictly abide by work discipline and do things well for the people; The second is to strictly investigate those who violate rules and disciplines, and remove from the civil service those black sheep who do not take the imperial court laws and regulations seriously.

Of course, the above is the general meaning of what Liu Hou said, it is the vernacular version, Guo Youzhi has a large number of brilliant sword and pen officials under his hands, and they will naturally process Liu Hou's great vernacular decree into a flowery, righteous and awe-inspiring official edict.

No one can fault this edict, and not only should it not be opposed, but it should be praised. There have been kings in the past dynasties, and they all attach importance to the rule of officials. Rectifying the rule of officials and strict discipline is almost one thing that the Ming monarchs must do in history.

Without a team of clear officials, relying on the emperor alone as a bare-bones commander, he doesn't want to do anything. Now the emperor has issued a ~ Taiwan edict to rectify the rule of officials, which is of course a good thing, which means that from now on the Han Dynasty will embark on the road of Zhongxing, which means that this little emperor is a Ming monarch, and it also means that everyone will be able to create a career with a Ming monarch in the future.

Therefore, one day in the early dynasty, when the emperor issued this edict, it did not make everyone dissatisfied, but made everyone feel refreshed, and they were all ready to follow the little emperor to do a good job and strive to create a new world. Of course, it is not without smart people, and there are also some people who see the smell of conspiracy from this edict and faintly feel that something is wrong.

It's just that they didn't think of what was wrong for a while, until the afternoon, when a cadre of the imperial history of the imperial history platform was stationed in various yamen and began to picket the discipline, they finally slowly came back to their senses.

Almost all of these Yushi stationed in the "Great Han Dragon Academy" are graduates, and all of them are young and vigorous young Zhuang factions. There is no doubt about the loyalty and worship of these people to the emperor, they received a brainwashed patriotic ideological education in the academy, and their political quality is absolutely excellent after graduation.

Now that they have the opportunity to help the emperor and supervise hundreds of officials, they are all as excited as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, and they instantly turned into iron bread princes. After arriving at the various yamen, all of them faithfully recorded the conduct and discipline of the officials in the yamen.

In this way, it is impossible for those courtiers to skip work and go home to sleep in the afternoon, and they sit in the yamen and want to secretly doze off in the office, because these imperial histories are pervasive and will keep an eye on them at any time, and once they find someone dozing off, they will immediately write it down: at a certain time and on a certain day in a certain year, a certain month, a certain day, and a certain person sleeping at work in such and such a place.
