"Your Majesty is sage, and the people's hearts will be against the side to determine the general trend of the world." Lu Ling praised lightly and continued, "Although the trouble of this clan is great, it is separated from the people, and it has no roots. Weichen is foolish to see that the family is so rampant, and the root cause is that it has been in the temple all the year round to seek public and private gains. Therefore, this method of electing officials should also find another way, so that the poor family can produce the sons and generals, and use the white body to become the power of the general Xiangzhou pastor, otherwise, the situation of Zhang Xuan today and Li Zhu the next day may be difficult to change! ”

Lu Ling is really good at scheming, and inadvertently, he has a plan for Liu Yan to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

"Long-winded! When Lu Zhonglang calms down the scourge of the world, won't we have to wait for a hundred years? Before Liu Yan could open his mouth, Ran Min immediately retorted loudly, "Your Majesty, according to the foolish opinion of the ministers, first move these guys out of the territory, deprive the private soldiers of the fields, and then take the opportunity to cut the officials, and those who do not accept will be assassinated by Chang Shui Wei." If Your Majesty is afraid of trouble, please take a Wei Hu Ben, take care of his family and that, if he does not accept the holy judgment, his mother will cut off his head, and with these three axes, he will properly return His Majesty a world peace! ”

Ran Min, who was behind the door, couldn't sit on the bench, and made a big mistake, and after a rough speech, he suddenly felt in a comfortable mood, sitting there, eating the fruit comfortably.

"Haha! Hahaha! Ran Min, Ran Min, you are such a wonderful person! Lu Xiang often said that you have a trick in your belly, but I didn't expect to come up with such a trick as beating the dog with a stick. Admire, admire! Liu Yan spit out the fruit at will, stroked his palms and laughed, and the juice flew sideways.

The expressions of the four people in the seat were different, Xie An looked helpless, Huan Wen covered his face with his sleeve and snickered, Lu Ling's face was full of disdain, and the person concerned, Ran Min, was indifferent, and even complacent about his plan to solve the game quickly.

After a while, there was a light cough, and the room was quiet.

Liu Yan straightened his shirt lightly, his expression was slightly tight, and he said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about this Fengqu, let's talk about it, who should be sent to the Hongqu fund allocation and requisition?" ”

At this time, the four of them finally had some understanding of the meaning of today's pilgrimage.

From the beginning of entering the temple, the discussion of the general trend of the world is to try the heart for the sake of strategy; Just asked for four people, in order to test the ability to detect talents; Now, it's time to send out the errands.

Liu Yan, the Son of Heaven, summoned the four people, explaining that he wanted to choose one of the four people to communicate with the big and small affairs of the Hongqu, and said that at this time, the four people were still in the palace, which showed that the four people were all favored by Liu Yan and were qualified to take on the strength of this important task, and the rest depended on how the four of them behaved.

The four people who sat down guessed Liu Yan's mind almost at the same time, and they looked at each other.

The four of them gathered in Chang'an from all over the world, worked together for many years, and fell in love, so no one wanted to open their mouths first, for fear of destroying the brotherhood.

For a while, the atmosphere was slightly depressing.

The scene was cold to the end, but Xie An, who was upright, first left the table and knelt down, and took the lead in speaking, "Your Majesty, please ask for your life." ”

"The minister also asks for his life." Ran Min left the table closely, planted a heel, and simply knelt down to Liu Yan on the spot.

"!" Liu Yan laughed and threw the kernel at Ran Min.

Liu Yan's move is self-evident, and Ran Min is no longer among the candidates.

Ran Min smiled, and crawled back to the banquet, he knew that he had nothing to do with this errand.

"Your Majesty, the audit of the Department of Finance and Decision-making, Meng Anjian, is greedy and affectionate, timid and profitable, he may be able to go!" Huan Wen left the table and said a meaningful word.

"Minister, second! In addition, the minister asked to lead 500 Hu cavalry guards to accompany him, and in the name of guarding, grasp the trade-offs, act on cameras, and decide life and death. Lu Ling kowtowed on the spot, his eyebrows were murderous.

Huan Wen is good at conspiracy, Lu Ling is good at scheming, and the two proposed to send a greedy official to coordinate the construction of the canal, just to borrow Meng Anjian's greed to open a gap for the clans to contract the project for profit, and then attract the clans to compete to take the bait, so as to achieve the goal of eradicating the tyrants along the way.

Liu Yan was very satisfied with this plan, he looked at Huan Wen and Lu Ling, who were under the stairs, and carefully looked at the expressions of the four people.

But seeing Xie An's eyes looking at Huan Wen and Lu Ling with cold eyes, Ran Min looked at Lu Ling with admiration, Huan and Lu lowered their eyebrows and lowered their hands, and did not see any movement, and the personality characteristics of the four people were clearly seen by Liu Yan at this moment.

Liu Yan rubbed his forehead, thought for a while, and made a decision in his heart, he said softly, "According to what Lu Zhonglang said, from now on, Yulin Zhonglang under the account of Guanglu Xun will raise Lu Ling's rank from 800 stones to 1,000 stones, and he will be fully responsible for the dispatch and distribution of funds for the Hongqu, and after the relevant matters are settled, he will immediately rush to the counties; Xie An, in addition to the prince's side teacher, you went to Lu Xiang the next day to get an errand for the prime minister, and gradually got in touch with government affairs. Also, Lu Ling, you remember, on this trip, you can make mistakes anywhere, but this Lingyuan City can't. ”

Lu Ling listened to the clouds, he thought for a while, thinking that it was because His Majesty's favorite minister Liu Quansheng was living in seclusion in Huaxing County, so he didn't take this sentence seriously, and took the order.

Xie An wanted to speak and stopped, he wanted to admonish to stop this move, but as soon as the king's order came out, it was like a flood of water, and even if he was not angry in his heart, he had no choice but to give up his life.

"Hahaha! Let's disperse! I'm a little tired, unlike you, in your early twenties and early thirties, you have a lot of time to squander, it's good! ”

After speaking, Liu Yan yawned, waved his hand, and the four of them saluted and left.

Out of the door, Xie An immediately became angry and blurted out, "Lu Erdan, Huan Laoyi, what kind of bullshit idea do you two have, if this matter of repairing the canal delays the well-being of the people, I will break your teeth." ”

People who have never worried about the country are all sad people through the ages. That's exactly what Xie An is.

In his eyes, he couldn't tolerate a little sand, which also laid the groundwork for his future difficulties and ups and downs.

When the other three heard this, they laughed, Ran Min dragged Xie An to his side, and the four of them hooked their shoulders and walked towards the wine shop outside the palace.

While walking, Lu Ling said with relief, "Don't worry, eldest brother, with my younger brother here, how much Meng Anjian eats, how much your brother will tell him to spit out, this rainbow canal will never become an unfinished project because of the cutting off of the world." On the contrary, I will let the people enjoy the benefits, and when there is a drought, water will be diverted for irrigation, and when it rains, the water gate will be stopped, so that the county along the canal will become an endless fertile field! Hahaha! ”

In the eyes of young people, even if it is cloudy and rainy, they can wait for the rainbow after the rain vigorously, they have a lot of time, and they are willing to do anything for the beautiful scenery.

At this time, Lu Ling was exactly like this, he was full of pride, looking into the distance, full of longing.

Out of trust in his brother, Xie An did not continue the topic in the end.

The four of them led the wind all the way and ran happily into the distance.

......

In the Xuanshu Palace, Liu Yan watched the four of them leave, and shouted softly, "Huai'er, come out!" ”

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy came out of the side room of Ganquan Residence, the young man's goose egg face, big eyes, thick eyebrows and high nose, and Liu Yan were carved out of the same mold.

The young man in front of him is Liu Yan's eldest son, the current prince Liu Huai.

After experiencing the forced palace of the family and the suicide of Zhang Diewu with his son, Liu Yan has not had a son for many years, so Liu Huai is also an only son in a narrow sense.

As Liu Yan's only son, Liu Huai's family is the only one, and the position of the prince is well deserved, and the old and young women and children of the entire empire have a mirror in their hearts, as long as Liu Yan is really ascended to heaven, it will be Liu Huai who inherits the unification.

Therefore, although Liu Huai is not very old, the East Palace where he is located is full of traffic all day long, and there are countless people who come to pay respects.

But seeing Liu Huai sitting in the position where Lu Ling was sitting, he was about to lean back, but he suddenly remembered the earnest teaching of Master Fu Xie An in his mind, and immediately straightened his body and said respectfully, "Father." ”

Seeing that Liu Huai was gentle and polite, Liu Yan smiled and said 'hey', and walked down the steps to sit opposite Liu Huai.

Liu Yan is busy with government affairs on weekdays, and rarely has parent-child time, today is rare, so he chatted with Liu Huai a few more words, and after asking about his studies, Liu Yan was satisfied, and laughed in a low voice, "Huai'er, my father wants to prepare to review the recital, I said, just listen to it." The way of kings, the way of employing people; The way of governing the country, the way of using government. The official road can grasp the overall situation, and the government can manipulate people's hearts, so that the world can be controlled! ”

Liu Yan looked outside the hall, sighed unconsciously, and stopped talking, but still said, "Huai'er, maybe you are my only son, these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and stunning beauties, in the future, they are all in your palm." Just now, these eyes and unicorns are all geniuses in the world, with them, control them and use them well, you will definitely be better than your father in the future! ”

Liu Yan looked at this young man who had a nine-point resemblance to him, and said, "You have to remember that if you want to be a court and a hundred officials, you should take turbidity and purity as the first priority." If you have to succeed the unification, you must use more people like your Master Xie, although Zhengqi can be used for both purposes, but the right way in the world is the foundation of governing the country, Huai'er, do you understand? ”

"Sons are taught!" Liu Huai's eyes rolled, and he looked at Liu Yan with an excited face.

"Haha, go find your masters! These guys, who don't study well, actually take my son to drink, if my son becomes an alcoholic in the future, see if I don't beat their board. ”

Liu Yan guessed Liu Huai's thoughts, stepped forward and stroked Liu Huai's hair, with infinite tenderness in his eyes.

Liu Huai pursed his lips, smiled 'hehe', bowed goodbye to Liu Yan, turned around and ran towards the four figures outside the door, and behind him, several shadows followed silently.

It was Changshuiwei sent by Liu Yan to protect Liu Huai's safety.

When people went to the empty building, Liu Yan looked out the window and said to himself, "Since ancient times, the imperial gate was the most ruthless, when the family helped me with all their might, and now I treat each other with evil government, is this considered revenge?" ”

A few snowflakes fell on Liu Yan's shoulders, adding a trace of melancholy to his heart.

Huai'er, I hope that my father can give you a peaceful country.
