Chapter Twenty-Three: Return to Government
When the sun sets and rises, the dazzling light shines on the majestic Chang'an City again, and the atmosphere of the whole city changes!
Because today is the beginning of the new year, this is not an ordinary New Year, in this era when everything revolves around Chang'an, it is in this year that Emperor Liu Heng has reached the age of crowning!
Since the beginning of the New Year is approaching, this matter has begun to circulate, especially among the people, there are many discussions, many people swear that the prime minister will definitely not be able to return to power, and no one wants to return to power.
Most of these people have not read history, and although they know the deeds of King Su, King Su is a god, just like a legend.
Changle Palace.
Liu Heng changed into a brand-new Son of Heaven robe, put on the new crown of the Son of Heaven, twelve couldn't help swinging, he looked at Luo Xin with joy, and said with a smile: "Uncle, what do you think of my body?" ”
Luo Xin smiled and nodded: "It's very heroic and majestic, and the minister can already think of how wise and powerful you will be after taking charge of the government." ”
Luo Xin has decided to announce to the whole world the news that he will return to power at today's court meeting.
Liu Heng was overjoyed and a little reluctant: "Uncle, can you continue to stay and assist me?" ”
Luo Xin shook his head, and then seemed to think of something, and laughed directly.
Liu Heng was puzzled: "Uncle, what are you laughing at?" ”
Luo Xin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, do you know what King Kang said when King Su returned to power King Kang in the past? ”
Liu Heng naturally shook his head and said, "Who can know about what happened more than a thousand years ago?" Of course, I don't know. ”
Luo Xin said: "It is recorded in the history books that King Su returned to King Kang, and King Kang said: 'Uncle, can you continue to stay and assist the widow?' ', yesterday and today, there is really no difference, and the old land of Fenghao in Dabang Zhou is also in Guanzhong, is this a coincidence of fate? ”
The historian beside the two of them shook their hands, and their hearts were even more excited, and there was a sense of pride in their hearts.
A thousand years ago, my predecessors recorded the deeds of King Su, and today I have recorded the deeds of the great regent, which historian will record the deeds of the next regent in the future?
Will it still be Rockwell?
The thousand-year-old family, the only one in the world, is really terrifying.
Liu Heng didn't expect that there would be such a thing, and hurriedly asked, "Then how did King Su answer King Zhou Kang in the first place?" ”
Luo Xin said with a trace of recollection: "King Su said that all the courtiers in this world can stay in the land of Fenghao, and he is the only one who wants to leave.
Chen didn't understand this truth before, because in the family, the second duke of Wenxuan also used to be the chief regent, but he did not leave Haojing and Luoyang.
Until now, the minister finally understood, it turned out to be different. ”
Liu Heng seemed to understand a little, even if he was so powerful, but in front of the Luo family, a thousand-year-old family with four regents, he still couldn't understand many of the things.
"The ministers should have all arrived outside the palace gate, and they can be announced to enter the palace."
Outside the palace gates.
Whether it is the nobles who wear Zhu and purple, or those relatively low-level court officials, they are all waiting in front of the palace gate, chatting, this is the first big court meeting after the New Year, everyone must participate.
There are some people with a keen sense of smell who have already felt a different wind through the transfer of some official positions, and they are extremely attentive to the first big meeting of the new year.
Because of the existence of the Luo family, the sacredness of the emperor is not as strong as in real history, and the disparity in power between monarchs and ministers has not become so large.
Luo Chen's original intention in designing the system was to form a correction mechanism in the central court on the basis of high efficiency, for example, after the emperor made a strategic miscalculation, the courtiers could have rules and regulations to stop it.
This system is still relatively effective at present, and the emperor's authority is still great, but the prime minister and the three dukes and nine secretaries can change the emperor's will to a certain extent.
"Boom!"
A heavy voice sounded in the ears of the ministers, and the door to the palace opened, and there was a world of difference between inside and outside, with the supreme power core on one side and the noisy and noisy world on the other.
The ministers walked into the palace one after another, headed towards the Changle Palace, and when they arrived outside the palace, they took off their shoes, untied their swords, etc., and then rushed in.
When the ministers sat down, they saw the regent Luo Xin wearing a sharp sword at his waist, and Shi Shiran accompanied the emperor out, both of them had smiles on their faces, and they seemed to be in a good mood.
Seeing this, the ministers stood up and stood solemnly, Liu Heng sat on the throne, Luo Xin stood with a sword, and the ministers bowed in unison: "Long live Qianqiu, Your Majesty Sheng'an." ”
"I'm safe, I'm safe."
Liu Heng smiled and saluted the ministers in return, and said, "The secretaries are seated." ”
The ministers were puzzled, so they heard Luo Xinlang say: "Zhongqing."
In the past, when Emperor Renzong Xiaohui collapsed, he entrusted the Han Sheji and His Majesty to me, so that I could carry His Majesty and Sheji on my back like the ancestor King Su carried King Kang, and it has been more than ten years now.
Fortunately, relying on the protection of the heavens, the gift of King Su, and the stability of the world, this is my blessing, and I have lived up to the trust of Emperor Xiaohui. ”
Luo Xin began to say as if he was chattering, and then said abruptly: "At the beginning of the new year, everything is renewed.
Your Majesty will be crowned this year, talented, intelligent, and wise, with the appearance of the ancient sage king, I uphold the edict of the Emperor Xiaohui, regent the world, for the Han Dynasty, should follow the example of the ancestor Su Wang to return to the government of King Kang, and return to the emperor His Majesty. ”
"Boom!"
There seemed to be a thunderclap in the hall, and then there were countless gasping voices.
Everyone never expected that the beginning of the Great Dynasty Meeting did not even have the slightest foreshadowing, and it was directly such exciting news.
Return to power!
Such a sensitive issue was actually raised by the Prime Minister Regent himself, and it was the supreme power in the world, and it was really put down like this.
When Luo Xin was just regent, there were still many doubts among the world, and although Luo's political credibility was high, it was mainly concentrated in the Bangzhou period.
Although the blood of the same clan surnamed Ji has long been flowed between the same clans in the later period, it is still a family after all, especially the Luo family, which pays more attention to tradition.
But when Luo Xin's regent reached the first five years, there were basically many fewer people who had doubts in their hearts, because Luo Xin did not have the slightest ill intentions and did not install his own people in key positions.
At this stage, most people believe that although Luo Xin will not usurp the throne, there is a high probability that he will control the state affairs until the day he dies.
But as the time for the emperor's coronation is getting closer and closer, some of Luo Xin's actions have made many people realize that Luo Xin is probably going to return to power directly.
Until this moment, Luo Xin personally announced to the world at the court meeting that he would return the government to the emperor!
This problem, which has always been in the hearts of countless people, has finally been settled, and no one will be able to make a fuss about it in the future.
Everyone in the hall looked at Luo Xin with burning eyes, looking at the kind of prime minister who was still in good spirits although he had entered old age.
Where are you going to go after you return to power?
Luo Xin ignored all the gazes and continued: "The big government is returned, it's not a trivial matter, after the dispersal of the dynasty, the preparation of the ceremony will begin, after Your Majesty is crowned, it will be returned to the government immediately, and it will not be delayed, can the secretaries understand?" ”
"Obey the orders of the Prime Minister!"
Of course, returning to government is not simply said at the court meeting, which requires a complete set of procedures and etiquette, of course, in order to show the majesty of imperial power, or to ensure the sense of sacredness in front of the people of the world.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, what Luo Xin said in the hall was like a gust of wind, instantly spreading to every corner of the entire Han Dynasty.
Then there are countless earthquakes, and the world seems to be changing in an instant, which is not an exaggeration, but everyone really knows that the era of Luo's is coming to an end.
And it was Luo's own hands that ended his Xuanhe in Dahan.
After the family entered the pinnacle of power, starting with Yinghou, the entire Luo clan began to leave the core of power.
Luo Xin ignored these disturbances, in the days when he did not return to power, he still handled government affairs step by step, Luo Chen also followed his brother, and the Shouguang Marquis Mansion was also ready to return to the fiefdom of Shandong.
After Luo Xin returns to power, Luo Chen will immediately resign and leave the core of the Han power.
In this atmosphere, Liu Heng ushered in his coronation ceremony in the expectation of countless people, because he no longer had a father, so his coronation was presided over by Luo Xin, who took care of him.
This is also what Liu Heng took the initiative to request.

"Morality is a precious and easily broken thing, its establishment requires the perseverance of the whole society, and its destruction requires only a thought."
The author infinitely agrees with this sentence, the same is true of the political bottom line and principles, the entire Zhou Dynasty from the rule to the chaos of the process, is a political bottom line and principles continue to be broken history, the author studied history to pay attention to, in the war period, only in the name of the Luo clan presided over the alliance, has a relatively long-term effect.
In that era when etiquette collapsed and the country's credibility did not exist, "Luo's trustworthiness" was a deeply buried unspoken rule, and Luo's always adhered to the final bottom line.
The return of Dong Ahou Luo to power was an event of great historical significance during the Han Dynasty, which affected the political logic of the entire early Han Dynasty for a long time, improved the political bottom line and political mutual trust in the early and middle Han Dynasty, and the entire Zhuxia world seemed to have recovered from the countless murder cases of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. ——"The History of the Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
