readx;

For Liu Hou's "diligent" ministers, it was cool, but Liu Hou was not happy, he originally imagined that the relaxed and happy life of the emperor was forced to interrupt, and he had to participate in endless deliberations almost every day, and there was not much time to accompany the three queens to live a happy life. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

What about the shopkeeper who said yes? What is the saying that the king will not reign sooner? In this regard, Liu Hou felt very helpless. Although Xingle should be timely, Liu Hou can still distinguish the weight. When this country was first established, there were certain disturbances, and at this time, there must be many things that he needed to make the decision of the emperor, so he could not completely let go of the government.

There is a way that the sea sails by the helmsman, Liu Hou grasps the future development direction of society, and he is indeed needed to guide the direction at this time. Although Zhuge Liang and others are extremely wise, they cannot predict the unpredictable future.

If they are left to explore on their own, it will definitely be like "crossing the river by feeling the stones" in later generations, and every step forward will require a great price. Therefore, Liu Hou thought about it and finally decided to sacrifice the small self and fulfill the big self.

He had no choice but to sacrifice his own pleasure time to continue to observe cabinet meetings, interjecting from time to time to check the policies formulated by the cabinet, so that they would not take some unnecessary detours.

However, his original intention was to observe, but the other ministers did not think so, in their eyes, the emperor began to govern again, which is a great thing, because of the establishment of the cabinet, and let the cabinet control the political affairs caused all kinds of discomfort swept away, everyone cheered up again.

These changes in the ministers were seen by Liu Hou, which made him feel that he couldn't laugh or cry. This really surprised him, and it seems that the road to a constitutional monarchy is really a long way to go. Now the Han Dynasty holds a large pilgrimage meeting every five days, and a small pilgrimage meeting almost every day.

The Great Dynasty Meeting is similar to the traditional Imperial Dynasty Meeting, which is presided over by the emperor and attended by all the courtiers, and everyone discusses some important matters together. However, the present court meeting is no longer the same as in the past, and the purpose of the current court meeting is only to collect the opinions of the ministers, especially the professional opinions of some counterpart departments.

Under normal circumstances, if it is not a very urgent event, Liu Hou will not make a decision immediately at the court. The opinions collected at the meeting were finally submitted to the cabinet meeting for further discussion, and the cabinet made the final decision.

After all, the cabinet is the supreme authority. Therefore, there are rarely film and television dramas, where the emperor sits on the dragon chair and asks majestically: "Ladies and gentlemen, who is willing to do something for me/go on an expedition?" ”

Then a Wenchen or a general jumped out, clasped his hands into fists and said loudly: "Weichen / The last general is willing to go!" ”

The reason why it is put in double quotation marks is that this "parliament" is really just discussing things, and it will not be voted on in the end, as was the case with those parliaments in later generations.

The small Hajj meeting that is held every day refers to the cabinet meeting, which is the meeting that needs to be voted on, because this is the meeting where decisions are really made. Regardless of whether it is a big court meeting or a small court meeting, it is generally only held for half a day, and at noon, everyone will disperse to have lunch, and after eating lunch and resting for a while, everyone will go back to their official offices to deal with the affairs within their duties.

Liu Hou will inevitably attend the big court meeting, and as for the small court meeting, Liu Hou is now going to sit in on it twice a day to check the cabinet. After the court meeting in the morning, Liu Hou could not be idle, you must know that he still controlled a certain amount of military affairs, supervision departments and intelligence departments.

After eating lunch and taking a short nap, when he went to work in the afternoon, he began to listen to the information collected and sorted out from all quarters, and made "important instructions" on some matters. Therefore, from this point of view, Liu Hou has never let go of this empire.

At 17 o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Hou will return to the harem after work to enjoy the joy of family. Recently, Zhang Xingcai and Guan Yinhua have been pregnant ~ pregnant, so he will hurry back to the harem to accompany his two pregnant wives as soon as he gets off work.

There were even times when he didn't even participate in the small pilgrimage meeting, or slipped out halfway through. Even so, he felt like he didn't have enough time to take care of his family. Although it sounds a bit ridiculous for an emperor to say that he has to take care of his family, Liu Hou is a person who attaches great importance to his family in his bones.

In his previous life, he didn't have the opportunity to be a father, but in this life, he had two opportunities to be a father at once, and the excitement is difficult to describe in words. He hopes to spend more time with his family, in the end, he is still the kind of dick silk character, not a hero.

The two heroes who are pregnant ~ should be comforted, and in addition, Zhou Xue should also be comforted and comforted. Because Zhou Xue is still young, Liu Hou doesn't want her to conceive~ conceive and give birth to a child so early, so the two have been married for many years, but her stomach still hasn't moved.

Usually it's nothing, after all, Zhang Xingcai and Guan Yinhua's stomachs are also not moving, but now it's different from the past, now Zhou Xue sees that the two sisters have a big belly, and her own stomach hasn't moved at all, and she doesn't know how uncomfortable it will be.

At this time, she is the most in need of comfort, and Liu Hou hopes to squeeze some time out to accompany her and comfort her. Originally, Liu Hou wanted to leave the cabinet alone, but at this time, the world was in chaos, and Liu Hou had to quit the state of letting go of the cabinet and re-care about political affairs.

Although he just attended the meeting, moved his mouth from time to time, and came up with ideas, and the presiding officer of the cabinet meeting was still Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, because there were too many problems happening across the country during this period, the cabinet meeting often ended endlessly.

For some things, because of the urgency of the situation, the cabinet ministers even had to work night shifts to discuss solutions, so Liu Hou also fell into bad luck, and often had to work overtime, so that he didn't have much time to go back to the harem to comfort his wife.

You know, he has three wives, and the task of comforting him is particularly heavy. In the afternoon of this day, the weather was unusually hot, and extremely long ray-like clouds appeared in the southwestern sky~, which was very peculiar. However, in the Weiyang Palace, there are officials and little eunuchs in a hurry from time to time, and no one has the heart to look up and pay attention to the strange clouds in the sky that are rare to see in a hundred years.

The east wing of Weiyang Palace is the upper study, that is, the emperor's office, which is splendid, spacious and bright, and there are temporary lounges, toilets, dressing rooms, study rooms, offices, fitness rooms, etc. The whole layout and decoration are much more magnificent than the presidential suites of the five-star hotels of later generations.

Relatively speaking, the West Wing is much more modest, with a small house that houses the offices of the Cabinet Ministers, and a larger building that houses the Cabinet Hall, where the so-called Pilgrimage Meeting takes place.

Most of the people who hurriedly entered and exited the Weiyang Palace went in and out of various rooms in the West Wing, and one after another government decrees were constantly issued from here, and those officials either received government orders from here and hurriedly went out to handle the implementation, or there was the latest situation to report to the cabinet.

It was the political center of the entire empire and the busiest place in the entire imperial political arena. Cabinet ministers are capable people who work efficiently every day and handle the affairs of their respective fields as quickly as possible.
