Liu He had already cultivated caution into an instinct, so his words were very tactful.

And Zhao Chongguo is not Huo Guang, where dare to say no, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is the king, what is the holy word, the old minister listens to the teaching." ”

"I thought that the life of these flints was too bad, and if they didn't have enough to eat, how could they talk about marching and fighting."

"Therefore, I think that the imperial court should add some money and food to these low-level soldiers, especially the low-level soldiers in the border counties, without too much, just add one or two hundred yuan a month."

Liu He's proposal spoke to Zhao Chongguo's heart, he was different from Huo Guang, who started from the Chinese Dynasty.

I fought the front line, and I know how difficult it is for the soldiers on the front line.

"Your Majesty thinks the same as the old minister, but the expenses of the imperial court are also a lot, and different government offices have different thoughts, so it is impossible for everyone to think of the soldiers."

Zhao Chongguo had already said very tactfully, without specifying who was opposing, and was very restrained.

"It may have been the case in the past, but Father Zhong insisted on a big battle, I'm afraid he wanted to revive Emperor Xiaowu's Yu Lie, and the old general proposed it at this time, I'm afraid there will be a better result."

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable, and the old man will mention this matter to the general in the past few days."

"Well, if the middle father still doesn't agree, then the money will come out."

"Out of the annual levies, according to the amount of three denarii per person, a sum of money is set aside and distributed to the soldiers in the name of salt and gold, and it is up to you to decide to which level the soldiers will be paid."

Men under the age of 14 have to pay an oral allowance of 20 yuan a year, which is a part of the income of the Shaofu.

Liu He said indifferently, if you have money, you should spend it again.

Taking it from the people and using it for the people is the best place for money.

"Your Majesty has already rewarded the soldiers who are about to go on the expedition a few days ago, how can you deduct the money and food from Your Majesty's Shaofu again?" Zhao Chongguo waved his hand again and again.

"Old general, don't shake your head in a hurry, and listen to what I have to say."

"No."

"I have already thought about it, in the past three years, if I don't build a palace, don't build a mausoleum, and don't build a civil project, at least I can save hundreds of millions of money and grain, and these money and food will be used on the soldiers, I will be more at ease, this is my kindness, don't refuse the old general."

The Son of Heaven said very sincerely, and Zhao Chongguo, who had passed the year of the sixtieth year, couldn't help but be a little moved.

Zhao Chongguo didn't have much contact with Emperor Xiaozhao, and he didn't know who Emperor Xiaozhao was, but he had witnessed Emperor Xiaowu's demeanor.

I don't know why, although what the Son of Heaven said today is a "small matter", Zhao Chongguo always feels that the Son of Heaven seems to have some legacy of Emperor Xiaowu.

What is this legacy?

Zhao Chongguo couldn't say it for a while.

"But ......," Liu He said, "I'm afraid there is something else that is a little difficult?" ”

"What is Your Majesty worried about?"

"I am willing to pay, but the old general has to find a way to get it himself, because I am not yet in charge of the government, so it is not appropriate to interfere too much in the government."

Right! The Son of Heaven has not yet been in power, and what he said is not counted.

Well? Why is the Son of Heaven still not pro-government, and why is he not counted what he says?

In just over an hour, Zhao Chongguo saw that the Son of Heaven had the ability to govern pro-government.

Not only can you be pro-government, but you can also do well.

The Great General should definitely try to let go, and not be as detailed as he is now.

"The old man understands His Majesty's hardships, His Majesty is willing to fight for a piece of money and food for the soldiers, and the old man can't sit idly by, the old man personally went to tell the general that he must let him add a piece of money and food to the soldiers."

"This is very good, but when the old general discusses this matter with his middle father, he must not say that this matter was raised by me, so as not to make the middle father suspicious."

"The Son of Heaven is in power, why should he Huo Guang be suspicious!"

This is what Zhao Chongguo thought in his heart, but when he said it from his mouth, it became another sentence: "The old minister has his own measure, and he will not make the general suspicious"

His Majesty has not made it clear, and Zhao Chongguo cannot speculate.

This kind of thing, guess wrong, that is to cause chaos in the world.

Next, Liu He asked some more about the Han army's armor soldiers and war horses.

Under Zhao Chongguo's detailed explanation, Liu He had a better understanding of the true strength of the Han army.

And he also found a lot of places that could help the Han army.

It seems that when the group of Lang officials that Liu He cultivated in Changyi Country arrived, they would immediately be busy.

……

Unconsciously, an hour passed, and at the end of this first lecture, Liu He benefited a lot, and Zhao Chongguo also gained a lot.

The few pieces of wood on the case were even more written by Liu He.

"An hour actually flies so quickly, the old general is busy with military affairs, you can go back first, don't forget the next day to teach me."

"The old minister didn't dare to forget, so the old minister retired."

Zhao Chongguo stood up, but because he sat for too long, his body was stiff, and his legs were sore, so he didn't stand firmly, and he stumbled and almost fell.

Liu He hurriedly got up and helped Zhao Chongguo to stand up.

"The old general should take care of his body, the big man is missing you, that's not good, next time the old general comes again, I will definitely prepare a soft cushion for you, this time I was negligent."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your care." Zhao Chongguo said with trepidation.

Zhao Chongguo said goodbye to the Son of Heaven and left the Qingliang Hall with a full stomach.

I don't know why, today's sun is as vicious as these days, but Zhao Chongguo doesn't seem to be so irritating.

As he walked towards the Shang Shu Office, he recalled what he had just said when he was teaching to the Son of Heaven.

When leaving, the Son of Heaven said that he had benefited a lot, but Zhao Chongguo also felt that he had gained a lot.

Although the Son of Heaven did not know much about the details of "military affairs," some of the opinions and opinions he put forward were extraordinary.

What's even more commendable is that whether it is a general or Fan Minh You, they always look down from a high place, and there is always a layer of separation between them and ordinary soldiers.

But the Son of Heaven is different. It seems that he can stand in the position of the soldiers and look up, and the natural replacement can appreciate the hard work of the soldiers.

I don't know if the Son of Heaven will also have a talent in strategizing and winning thousands of miles.

Thinking like this, Zhao Chongguo unknowingly came to the outside of the Shangshu Office.

He didn't go in immediately, but hesitated outside the door, thinking about how to convey the Son of Heaven's thoughts to the general.

When he looked up at the gate of the inconspicuous Shangshu Department, he suddenly seemed to feel that something was wrong.

Entering the palace today, aren't you here to give a lecture to Your Majesty?

But it seems that he didn't teach His Majesty too much, but he actually "accepted" a military order from the Son of Heaven.

Zhao Chongguo felt a little apprehensive, is Your Majesty interfering in military politics?

But he thought about it, isn't it normal for His Majesty to participate in court politics?

And His Majesty's suggestion is really good.

Zhao Chongguo secretly made a decision, from now on, this matter of teaching His Majesty must be regarded as a top priority!

Thinking of this, he walked steadily towards the Book of Books.

……

In this way, in the next few days, Liu He met Li Guang, the court lieutenant in charge of the criminal law, Le Cheng, who was in charge of the Shaofu, and Tai Chang, who was in charge of the housekeeper's sacrificial rites, in the Qingliang Palace......

No matter who Jiuqing was facing, Liu He put forward some of his own opinions from the perspective of public heart.

For example, improving the living conditions of prisoners in prison and reducing unnecessary expenses in the palace will reduce unnecessary ceremonies as much as possible......

These things are trivial things that Huo Guang has no time to pay attention to, but in fact, they can change the lives of many people, which is actually more important things.

Of course, every time he euphemistically put forward these suggestions, Liu He would always add a sentence with a naïve face: "This matter is just my private thoughts, and when I mention it to my father, don't say that I said it, so as not to think too much about it." ”

Liu He's expression was always so sincere, except for Zhao Chongguo, the rest of the people not only did not have too many suspicions, but also said that the Son of Heaven was thoughtful.

……

On July 15, Liu He finally waited for his long-awaited Jiuqing-Dasi Nong.

Except for Shaofu and Dasi Nong, the other government offices all cost money, so Liu He is naturally the most concerned.

Although the money managed by Dasi Nong could not enter the pockets of Shaofu, he was in charge of matters related to people's livelihood, such as persuading agriculture and mulberry, selling salt and iron, equalizing the loss and leveling, and building water conservancy.

This is what Liu He is most concerned about.

However, Liu He was not very satisfied with Tian Yannian, who held the position of Dasi Nong.

Because, this is a corrupt official.

And it's not just a corrupt official, it's also a hardcore Huo Party, and he doesn't even want to be iron-faced!

Today's fourth watch is 10,000 words, this is the second watch, and the third and fourth watches are at half past nine!
