Chapter 281: Chao Mistake, It's a Very Bad Internal History

After learning that Uncle Tian's focus was actually the mode and relationship between himself and his father, Tianzi Qi, Liu Sheng only stayed where he was, unable to recover from his stunned feelings for a long time.

Liu Sheng thought about this, Uncle Tian might focus on the present, money and food are mixed together, and hidden dangers gradually appear;

I also thought that what Uncle Tian was concerned about would be the problems, difficulties, and corresponding countermeasures faced by the court today.

It's just that no matter what, Liu Sheng never thought that Uncle Tian not only dared to pay attention to this matter, but even said this matter to his face without any worries.

In this regard, Liu Sheng was unprepared before······

"The Difference Between Monarchs and Ministers······"

"The ······ of the Monarch"

As if he still hadn't been able to recover from his stunnedness, he let out a murmur with a dull face, but Liu Sheng finally forced himself to recover from his previous slightly confused state.

Forced to laugh twice, and took the opportunity to think about the wording for a moment, Liu Shengcai raised his head with a smile and grinned at Uncle Tian again.

"I understand what Ziqinggong means."

"As a subordinate, especially a vassal minister, not a courtier, it is really not easy for Ziqing to take these into account;"

"Being able to tell me these worries calmly makes me respect Ziqinggong."

"It's just this ······"

seemed to be taboo, and as if he didn't know how to speak, he quietly stopped talking, and Liu Sheng lowered his head with a smile;

Seeing Liu Sheng's posture, Uncle Tian was not in a hurry to persuade again, but put on a posture of listening to his ears and sat up straighter.

Sensing Uncle Tian's reaction, and the posture of 'you say, I'll listen', Liu Sheng only shook his head and laughed again.

After some time, Liu Sheng withdrew his smile and let out a long sigh;

The conversation box was also completely opened with Liu Sheng's long sigh full of sighs and feelings.

"What Ziqing Gong said, of course, also makes sense."

"As the crown prince, of course, you should focus on learning and familiarizing yourself with the principles of governing the country and the people, rather than rushing to deal with state affairs and government affairs."

"This is not only because the crown prince and prince, most of them have no ability to govern the country for the time being, and if they interfere in national affairs, they will make some unexpected mistakes, but also because of what Fang Cai, Ziqinggong said."

"-The prince, after all, is the prince, not the king;"

"If the crown prince goes beyond the boundaries and meddles in something that should be decided by the Son of Heaven, then after a long time, it will definitely cause disaster."

"For Ziqing Gong to have such worries, I can only think: Ziqing Gong deserves to be the pillar of the country······"

Holding Uncle Tian without a trace, he found that the expression on Uncle Tian's face did not change much, and Liu Sheng had to smile;

Only a moment later, Liu Sheng quickly adjusted his face, sighed lightly, and then continued: "But everything has its two sides. ”

"Ziqinggong's concern is not unreasonable, but it is not entirely correct."

"Because my father once said: There are some things that you can't read in front of the bookcase and listen to from other people's mouths."

Only by doing these things yourself can you understand what kind of problems and obstacles will arise, and you can learn how to solve them and eliminate them."

"It's like a courtyard where you can't raise a thousand miles of horses······"

"What does Ziqing Gong think?"

After a shallow mention of 'this is all the meaning of the father', and patiently explained the truth, Liu Sheng tentatively threw the question back to Uncle Tian.

And Uncle Tian's next reaction can be regarded as a complete confirmation of Liu Sheng's conjecture.

- Uncle Tian, is really a very suitable candidate for internal history······

"In that case, the minister won't say anything more."

"There are just a few things that still need His Highness's guidance?"

···

"Dare to ask Your Highness;"

"——If Your Majesty accepts the recommendation of His Highness and appoints a minister as the internal history, what should the minister be?"

"In addition to the accusations that should be fulfilled by the internal history itself, His Royal Highness has another explanation for his ministers?"

"For example: After the minister becomes the internal history, what does His Highness have to do that the minister needs to order the internal history subordinate officials to serve His Highness?"

Uncle Tian's question was very straightforward.

- If I really do an internal history, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have any arrangements for my internal history?

I don't know if it was Uncle Tian's calmness when he said this, or the natural hint of openness in Uncle Tian's temperament;

When Uncle Tian asked such a question that was a little unacceptable, and could even be said to be 'unspeakable', Liu Sheng's heart suddenly swelled with embarrassment.

But almost in just a short exhale and inhalation, Liu Sheng quickly reacted: What is the purpose of Uncle Tian's question······

"Ziqing Gong~"

"Hi ······"

"- Ziqinggong, I really look down on loneliness······"

Full of melancholy and quite meaningful, Liu Sheng shook his head with a smile, and then let out a long sigh.

As for Uncle Tian, after Liu Sheng's 'You underestimate me too much', there was a look of embarrassment on his face.

Uncle Tian's attitude today can be said to be a very personal way of dealing with Uncle Tian.

Let's just say that a few years ago, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, who was completely in a state of madness because he missed the position of the emperor's younger brother, sent hundreds of assassins to Chang'an.

Although in the end, the more than 100 legendary 'invincible' fierce men did not even succeed in assassinating anyone in Chang'an, the sensationality of this incident was not affected by the '100 assassins, and the success rate of assassination was zero'.

——At the worst of the situation, when Ziqi today, even with his biological mother, the Empress Dowager Dou, there was a disagreement!

At that time, it was Uncle Tian who was sent by the Son of Heaven to Suiyang, the capital of Liang, to thoroughly investigate the assassination of courtiers by Liu Wu, the king of Liang.

That incident back then, after all, involved the royal family, especially today's son, the relationship between the same mother and younger brother, clan relatives and princes, and sensitive words such as 'prince's brother';

So the process of dealing with this matter back then was actually not well known to too many people.

But Liu Sheng remembered it very clearly: Father Liu Qi once described in detail to himself the whole process of Uncle Tian's handling of this matter at that time.

At that time, the Wu-Chu Rebellion had ended, and the vitality of the Kwantung princes was greatly damaged, and they no longer posed much threat to the central part of Chang'an;

Therefore, the strategic position of Liang's 'Guanzhong Barrier' will naturally dissipate - at least it is also a low ship.

Under this premise, what Tianzi Qi wants to do is actually to completely cut off the dream of Liu Wu, the king of Liang, as the 'prince brother', through Liu Wu's assassination of the courtiers, and the possibility of achieving this goal.

However, the Empress Dowager Dou of the East Palace, who knew the reason for this, thought that Tianzi Qi wanted to use this to eliminate the threat of the 'prince and emperor's younger brother' through thorough physical means.

To put it simply, it is believed that Tianziqi wants to take advantage of this matter to directly force Liu Wu, the king of Liang, to death.

It was also in the context of this intricate event that Uncle Tian set off from Chang'an with a heavy mission;

After arriving in Suiyang, Uncle Tian still did not move the crowd, only found a few key witnesses of this incident, and got the most critical first-hand testimony.

Subsequently, Uncle Tian, who thoroughly found out the truth, did not stay in Suiyang for even one, and saw that the truth he had found out was brought back to Chang'an, and was unreservedly placed in front of Tianzi Qi and Empress Dowager Dou's mother and son.

After Uncle Tian returned to the court, Tianzi Qi asked: King Liang, did you send someone to assassinate Yuan An?

Uncle Tian replied: "The minister is guilty of death!" King Liang did have that thing!

Tianzi Qi asked again: Is there evidence of guilt?

Uncle Tian said: Please Your Majesty don't ask about King Liang.

The Son of Heaven asked again: Why?

Uncle Tian replied: If King Liang is not executed by the law, this is the criminal law of my Han family;

But if he dies in the law, the Queen Mother will not eat well and sleep restlessly, which is your worry again!

So, Tianzi Qi decided to deal with this matter in a low-key manner, and asked Uncle Tian to go to Changle Palace in person and tell the Empress Dowager Dou everything in person.

Knowing the whole process of Uncle Tian's investigation, Empress Dowager Dou was disappointed in her youngest son Liu Wu, but also praised Uncle Tian;

That is, after this matter, Uncle Tian, who handled the matter in a low-key manner and resolved the matter in the safest way, was appointed by the Empress Dowager Dou as the prime minister of Liu Yu, the king of Lu.

By this year, Uncle Tian's 'probationary training period' ended and he was summoned to the court;

was appointed as Jiuqing, which was also a sure thing after the incident back then······

"Ziqing Gong, since the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, he has personally experienced the ups and downs of the court;"

"It is said that he is the founding father and the relict of Taizu, and Ziqing Gong is definitely worthy of it."

After coming back from his thoughts and saying a word to Uncle Tian with a smile, Liu Sheng naturally turned his head again.

"Just now, Ziqinggong asked me: After doing the internal history, is there anything that I need Ziqinggong to help me do."

"——For this question, I can only answer Ziqinggong: My Han family needs a conscientious internal history."

"This is especially true after mistakes······

···

"Duke Ziqing should know that Chao Cuo served as the internal history in the seventh year after Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, that is, shortly after the death of the first emperor, he was quickly promoted by his father."

"And in the years that followed, Chao Cuo only cared about one thing from beginning to end."

"—cut the domain!"

"To be precise, it was Chao Cuo's single-handedly promoted "Cutting Domain".

"As for the responsibilities that the internal history should have shouldered, Chao Cuo almost completely ignored them······

···

"This situation has been maintained since the first year of my father's new year."

"To put it mildly: after Chao Cuo was promoted from the internal history to the imperial historian, there has been almost no change in the affairs of the internal history."

"Because even when Chao Cuo was there, Chao Cuo never cared about the affairs of internal history;"

"Now Chao Cuo is no longer in charge of the internal history, and the internal history belongs to the government without the backbone, and there is no difference compared with the past few years."

"—Because whether it is internal history or not, the focus of Chao is never the responsibility of internal history;"

"In Chao Wrong's heart, there is only that piece of paper "Cutting Domain······"

Hearing Liu Sheng's statement, Uncle Tian's pale face finally eased slightly;

And when Liu Sheng said that in the past few years, Chao Cuo had taken the official position of internal history, but he was 'not doing his job' all day long, and was busy promoting his "Cutting Domain", Uncle Tian finally frowned, and slowly nodded his head with approval.

Seeing Liu Sheng smiling and shaking his head, he continued: "When Emperor Taizu Gao, my Han family did not appoint an internal history for a long time. ”

"This is because the power and responsibility of the internal history is almost the prime minister who is one size smaller;"

"-It's just the prime minister, who is in charge of the civil affairs of the world, and the internal history is limited to Guanzhong."

"At that time, the actual scope of my Han family's control was only related to China, and the Kwantung region was divided by princes with different surnames, and it was not controlled by the court at all."

"So in the Taizu Dynasty, Xiao Xiangguo's name was 'Han Xiang', but in fact, it was the power of internal history that managed the 'world' of my Han family - that is, Guanzhong."

···

"And now, the princes with different surnames are long gone, and they are the princes of the clan, and they are not as good as before after the Wu Chu Rebellion."

"Now, the court is also taking steps to further reduce the power of the suzerains and princes of the Kwantung region, so as not to have another rebellion of the clan princes and princes that implicates most of the world in my Han family."

"Therefore, now the control of my Han family is already the entire world, including Guanzhong, Guandong, as well as the northern border counties and the land of Bashu."

"Under this premise, the prime minister is no longer like Xiao Xiangguo, who only needs to think about the things in the relationship, but needs to consider the affairs of the whole world."

"And a qualified internal history is extremely important for a person like Tao Qing who has no ability, just because his father has no other good choice, and can become the prime minister······"

If he said his true purpose, Liu Sheng's face finally returned to solemnity.

Liu Sheng's words were not too clear;

But Liu Sheng is very sure: when it comes to this, it is enough for Uncle Tian to understand his true thoughts.

- Tao Qing, the prime minister, make do;

Let him hold the prime minister's shelf, you can;

I really expected him to do something, enough to choke.

And Liu Sheng in the past few years, and in the next few years, which can be seen with the naked eye, will have a lot of things that need the cooperation of important ministers in the DPRK and China, especially those with real power.

Prime Minister Tao Qing can't do it, Liu Sheng, naturally he can only seek a qualified internal history to try to pave the way for his future.

- Liu Sheng doesn't want much;

- Liu Sheng doesn't need Uncle Tian to be the internal history, so he gives himself what he wants and gives the green light to everything he does.

It is enough for Uncle Tian to be a qualified internal history, do what should be done well, and govern the customs in an orderly manner.

Such a requirement does not seem to be high;

But there is a mistake of 'Zhuyu in front', and even this requirement seems so extravagant to Liu Sheng today······

"Your Highness's meaning, the minister roughly understands."

"The internal history of Chao Cuo is indeed a bit ······"

···

"Since this is the case, the minister has made an internal history, and His Royal Highness needs to ······ for King Lu"

"No!"

"Your Highness needs to ask Your Majesty to find another royal minister for King Lu."

"—King Lu, still very young;"

"If there is no old minister by his side to persuade him, the minister is worried that King Lu will make some ······ in the future."
