Chapter 240: The right to speak

Liu Ge Lao is finally about to arrive at his famous century, full of guests and friends.

Over the years, he has been put in the position of head of the cabinet, sandwiched between hundreds of officials and an emperor who likes to 'toss), and his heart is also bitter.

However, when Liu Jin came to Liu's mansion, he didn't see the scene of the guests and hosts enjoying themselves and staggering each other, but many people gathered at the door, and only after listening carefully did they know that Xixian thanked the guests!

"Elder Li Ge, Elder Xie Ge?"

It was nearly evening, the sky was a little dark, Liu Jin and the celebrant You Ji and others approached the crowd under the guidance of the lantern in a big red robe.

When the ministers saw that all the celebrants were coming, they spontaneously gave way to a way, and the end of the road was Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

In fact, Wang Wei, Min Qi and others also came, because the emperor was relieved, recognized Liu Xixian's official reputation and official achievements, and entrusted him with the people of a province, so at least he was a gentleman and villain

"Father-in-law Liu." Li and Xie arched their hands, and then also gave up a space, revealing the door of Liu's mansion.

Liu Jin stepped forward to take a look, sure enough, the door was closed, it stands to reason that he is a master of ceremonies and supervisors, and it is not a big problem to open this door at this time, but there are many people, and he can't mess around, if he loses the emperor's face and asks someone to give him a copy, the emperor's board will also hit his buttocks.

"Elder Li Ge, Elder Xie Ge, what does Duke Xixian mean? Even the two Pavilion Elders can't enter this door?"

Li Dongyang did smile bitterly, shook his head and said, "It's been decades, and his temper has never changed."

"And you've just arrived?"

"For a while, the people did not want to leave."

Liu Jin hissed, making a 'broken, 'bad' expression, "So how is this good? Your Majesty also asked our family to bring gifts. But we can't get into this door, how can our family give an account to Your Majesty?"

The emperor also brought a gift to a degraded official?

It's very rare to hear of it.

Elder Xie Ge said, "Since it is Your Majesty's will, Duke Xixian always has to open the door."

"Well, you can't say that. His Majesty just sent our family to give gifts, but did not send our family to break in. This gift is delivered, and it is none of my business whether I receive it or not."

"I'll knock again." Li Dongyang lifted his sleeves and stepped forward two steps up, "The celebrant is here, this door still has to be opened."

Liu Jin pursed her lips and smiled.

These people waited for a while, probably from the housekeeper, and then the gate of Liu's Mansion opened.

Liu Jian is reluctant to pick up guests, firstly, because he is in a bad mood, and secondly, this hospitality gift is not easy to arrange, usually he is the first to come, no matter who comes, it is his's subordinate official, but now, there are many in the court who are his bosses, what do you call him?

Moreover, such a lavish banquet is like a New Year, and it is spread to the palace, what do you make the emperor think?

But it's different when the celebrant comes, the saint still restricts the internal officials, and since the celebrant is here, it must be the emperor's will.

So how can he continue to keep this door closed?

Liu Jin, Li and Xie came in side by side, saying something unpleasant, he was representing the emperor when he left the palace, but he couldn't be unparticular about everything. And he is also a smart person, knowing Liu Jian's predicament, he said loudly in public: "Liu's Mansion is not Fengtian Palace, and it is not a court meeting at this moment, we are here as guests, and there is no other identity except for guests, so don't say that Xixian Gong doesn't care about your face. After all, Xixian Gong opened the door for the emperor's sake, otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to close the hot tea, so except for the emperor, we don't have face!"

….

"Don't dare, don't dare." It was also difficult for Liu Jian, he had to adjust his mentality in a very short time, and put his position right, he bowed his hand to everyone, "Today is Liu who is not taking care of him, please Haihan!"

The power of his words is not as good as Liu Jin of the palm seal of the celebrant at this time, he said that there are not so many rules, so naturally he can be more casual.

But after Liu Jin sat down, he only cared about blowing cold hot tea and stopped talking.

Li Dongyang saw that the atmosphere was a little silent, so he asked, "Gonggong Liu, does Your Majesty have a message?"

"Not either." Liu Jin

said with a smile, "Your Majesty is to let the celebrant come to join in the fun, Xixian Gong is dedicated to the people and is about to take up his post, Your Majesty said that the palace must be missing among the people who see him off."

Everyone muttered in their hearts, although they were not afraid of the number of people. But whether the emperor was unhappy about them gathering in Liu's mansion in his heart, it is difficult to say.

Now that Liu Jin is here, some things are not easy to say. For example, if you want to feel sorry for Liu Jian, how do you say it?

As a result, the atmosphere turned out to be a little weird.

"Your Majesty has a big heart, and it is the true character of a generation of bright monarchs." Xie Qian could only talk about something that was not nutritious, but everyone didn't feel anything after listening to it.

Liu Jin looked at the old men in the room and looked at each other, a little disapproving, and then asked, "Elder Li Ge, Elder Xie Ge, you have been waiting outside the mansion for a long time, you should have something to say to Xixian Gong, right?"

"Yes." Li Dongyang was helpless, "Today I am here as an old friend, the holy decree has been issued, Xixian will go to Shandong in the near future, which ......

He originally wanted to say that from the cabinet to the political envoys, there must be grievances in this. But I couldn't say it......

If you really want to talk about it, are you complaining about the emperor? And there is really a problem with the afternoon dynasty, at that time, I didn't talk about what it meant behind my back, and then I said that the political envoy couldn't be an official, and you didn't want to be what you wanted.

「…… Heexian, take care. Your Majesty has already said that as long as we are officials for the people, we can still meet again in Beijing in the future."

Liu Jian waved his hand, he didn't want to go back to Beijing, and Li Dongyang succeeded him as the first person after he left. He came back a few years later, how is this position going to be placed?

He didn't want to do it again.

"Binzhi, I feel more and more that Your Majesty is right. For the sake of officials, for the benefit of the people, it is true to have a clear conscience. Now to be able to do something for the people is already stealing the luck of heaven."

Maybe this is Liu Jian's sincere words, but most people still have doubts after hearing it, the more the official becomes smaller, and he should still feel satisfied? If we really think you're so satisfied, then what's the point?

However, those words with some resentment, in front of Liu Jin, many people really dare not say it.

Liu Jin is a smart person, and he slowly saw that he was a little disdainful, and even sneered, and felt unfair for the emperor.

The restrained appearance of many of them really made him look down on him.

So he simply got up and stopped grinding, "Xixian Gong, Your Majesty asked our family to bring gifts. After going to Shandong, although he could not see the emperor, he still had a pen, if there was injustice and harm to the people in Shandong, he hoped to pass it into Beijing and make the saint know!"

….

This gift gives... It seems to be a little interesting... The emperor also trusts Liu Xixian!

Is this to make him work for a few more years?

"Your Majesty is so generous... How dare the ministers accept it?"

Liu Jin's mouth will also speak, "This gift still has to be accepted. No, what do you say about Shandong?"

That means it's a bit like a holy mandate.

Liu Jian had no choice, so he took the pen and bowed down to the palace, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After saying the good words, Liu Jin's face began to change.

"The gift is delivered, and our family is leaving. So as not to affect the conversation here. Speaking of which, His Majesty sent our family over, but he didn't mention it, so he said that he wanted to support the scene for Xixian Gong to prevent some people from thinking that the sun was setting and deliberately making things difficult. I just don't know that the guests of Xixian Gong's mansion sigh between the ups and downs of life, thinking about the official position, grade, impermanence of the sea, or the people of Shandong! Your Majesty is worried about the inconvenience of Xixian Gong's administration, have you thought of it?!"

This was said very arrogantly, and many people clenched their fists and had a gloomy look on their faces. But he is the number one person in the celebrant supervisor.

The emperor also took this opportunity to show again

Now that he is close to the people and the heart of the people, the mountain of morality, he just can't dominate it.

After Liu Jin finished speaking, he was not afraid in the eyes of everyone, and left Liu's mansion with a swagger.

After the people left, no one flicked their sleeves angrily: a eunuch dares to talk about the world and the people here!

Min Jue sneered: "When Gonggong Liu is here, you talk about it!"

"Everyone!" Liu Jian shouted, "If you really come to see Liu, Liu will treat him with tea, and if you come here to make noise, please forgive me for being inconsiderate."

Even if you stop it, it's fine.

After Liu Jin returned to the palace, he returned to his life,

Zhu Houzhao was also a little unhappy, "I am for the people, maybe they think that I can't see the grand situation of the Liu Mansion, so they specially sent you to stir up the situation." Your reprimand tonight is a great one, and sometimes you should dig out their hearts and bask them!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Tonight, the slave and maid really saw what it means to live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

Zhu Houzhao thought about it, but he still felt that it was wrong, this was a matter of the right to speak, why did his good intentions become a faint resentment against the emperor in the circle of literati before he left Beijing? If they continue to pass it on, it will be them who are worried about the country and the people, not the emperor!

It's worth it!

And he has a bad breath in his heart for these people to get out, these poor and sour things, sour official positions, sour people, there are indeed ups and downs in his heart, but how many things are put on the people?

He ordered Liu Jin to go, but he really didn't think too much, and his original intention was to do good for the people of Shandong. I didn't expect there to be such an atmosphere in Liu's mansion, a group of people were divided, that means Liu Jian was wronged, and the emperor wronged a gentleman, didn't he? !

The atmosphere of Liu's Mansion is actually the atmosphere of officialdom, the officials are far away from the people, and what they think is very little related to the people, on the surface, lamenting that a gentleman's minister has been deposed, as if he is worried about the country and the people, but in fact, it is also a group of clear streams who praise each other together, holding sage books and scolding the courtiers.

As the emperor thought, Liu Jian might be embarrassed when he went to Shandong, which would affect the people at that time. How many people are really worried?

"Someone!" The Emperor turned around in amazement, "Chuan Jin Yiwei! I'm going to overlord him today, but I want to see who it is and what he said in Liu's Mansion!"

said that it was Jinyiwei, but it was actually Mao's language, especially so late. Fortunately, Mao Yu came quickly, he knew that he was going to enter the palace at any time, and he lived nearby, just by the imperial city.

So in just a quarter of an hour, he knelt down in the Qianqing Palace.

"It's the same old way, Prisoner's Dilemma. You take people to the mansions of the officials below the squire, tell them not to sleep tonight, and write down what they said in Liu's mansion, and if they don't match, they will be punished as bullying the king!"

"Officials above the squire have come to the palace, and I will listen to them! See what the celebrant can't hear, and I can't hear!"

Liu Jin was ecstatic in his heart, this is the emperor he loves, and this is the correct use of power!

It's really going to be the New Year! See what I mean!!
