Chapter 156: The First Corrupt Official of the Han Dynasty (Ask for Subscription)

Tian Yannian, the word Zibin.

The meaning of the name is good.

In the Han Dynasty, the names of scholars are easy to identify, and they use some words with very good meanings.

For example, prolonging life, prolonging life, no disease, worry-free, Anguo, Guanghan, Anshi...... These are some of the most common names.

There is such a joke circulating in Chang'an.

Standing on the north que of Weiyang Palace, he shouted "Yannian" to Qi Li in the north, and it is estimated that the people who ran out to answer could line up from Beique to Beichengguo.

Although there are some exaggerated elements in this joke, the proliferation of the name Yannian is an indisputable fact in Dahan.

Not to mention those nobodies, even those who have names and surnames can count a lot of longevity.

Li Yannian, Tian Yannian, Du Yannian...... are all characters who have been in Chang'an for a while.

It's just that Tian Yannian has a good name, but he is not a good person.

It is said that this Tian Yannian is a descendant of the Qi royal family during the Warring States period.

In the early years of the founding of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Gao wanted to combat the entrenched forces of the old aristocracy of the Warring States period in their homeland and prevent them from germinating.

Therefore, the old nobles of the Kanto countries were forcibly relocated to the Kanchu region, and they were divided and conquered.

Among them, Tian Yannian's family is included.

Because he has received a good education since he was a child, Tian Yannian can be regarded as a young talent.

Later, because of his ability and prudence, he was recruited by Huo Guang to the General's Mansion and served as his subordinate.

Tian Yannian did not live up to Huo Guang's high expectations, and it didn't take a few years to achieve the long history of the Great General's Mansion all the way.

Then there was the Shangguan Rebellion, Tian Yannian made a great contribution, and climbed up several steps quickly.

In his early forties, he became a big farmer who managed most of the money and grain taxes of the Han Empire.

This is a fat man, not a saint, and without any supervision mechanism, it is difficult to avoid corruption.

It is often said that if you take a trip to the Dasi Nong Temple, as long as you touch the table there, and then go back to your home to wash your hands, you can wash a large basin of oil and water.

So as a big farmer, how could Tian Yannian not be greedy.

If Tian Bu is a small greed in Changyi Country, then Tian Yannian, the owner of Tian Bu Si, is a big greed and a huge greed.

It may even be the biggest corrupt official since the Han Dynasty.

From the history books he had read in the past, Liu He had already grasped the evidence of Tian Yannian's greed for ink, and all the details, numbers, and witnesses were clearly recorded.

As long as Liu He is willing, he can send someone to pull Tian Yannian out of the court at any time.

However, it was not yet time for Liu He to hide Tian Yannian's card.

Save it for the most critical moment and then throw it out.

Set off a wave in the court and do something with the waves.

……

And Liu He's bad feelings for Tian Yannian not only come from this.

What's more, in the original history, Tian Yannian played a very, very disgraceful role when he abolished the king of Changyi.

If Huo Guangzhong is a general, then Tian Yannian is a military advisor and a minion.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the initiator: in that unprecedented action to abolish the emperor, it was Tian Yannian who was the first to propose Huo Guang to abolish the king of Changyi.

In the court of the abolished emperor, most of the hundred officials did not dare to agree to Huo Guang's proposal to abolish the emperor, so Huo Guang failed to achieve decisive results immediately.

At this critical juncture, it was Tian Yannian who stood up again.

This meritorious Tian Yannian actually pulled out Huo Guang's sword above the main hall, and directly threatened the hundred officials and ministers - whoever did not obey would be killed immediately under this sword.

If Tian Yannian had not acted as a pawn and military advisor, the abolition of the emperor would probably not be so easy.

Fortunately, Liu He has the ability to predict the future, otherwise I am afraid that he would never be able to see through this big Si Nong, who is in charge of money and grain, and he is still a master of swords.

……

Of course, although Liu He has a bad feeling for Tian Yannian, since he has not decided to move him, he can only act in front of him.

Liu He, like other teachers, still greeted the big Si Nong with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty's Greetings." Tian Yannian asked with a salute.

"Tian Qing is a Qilu person, and I am also a Qilu person, if you count it up, you and I still have half a point of hometown friendship, so you don't need to be polite." Liu He said with a smile.

Tian Yannian was a little frightened, and hurriedly bowed two more times.

After this false salute, Tian Yannian finally sat in front of Liu He.

In Liu He's inherent impression, corrupt officials should always be full of fat, so they must all have a big belly.

But what Liu He didn't expect was that the big Si Nong in front of him was not good-looking, thin and thin, with dark skin, and his height could only reach his shoulders.

It's like an outsider on the other side of Jiaozhi.

It reminded Liu He of the Tian Cao Shi Wang He who often dealt with in Changyi Kingdom.

In the final analysis, Wang He is much cuter than Tian Yannian.

Such a shriveled and thin person can actually come up with a vicious way to abolish the emperor, and he can openly show his blade on the top of the main hall to threaten hundreds of officials, which is really unseemly.

……

"Tian Qing, although you are half of my teacher today, I want to take you to see some things first, how about it, these things are all brought by me from Changyi Kingdom?" Liu He said proudly.

"Wechen obeys the holy parable." Tian Yannian said humbly.

"Okay, good, very good, let's go, I'll take you to see my baby!"

After Liu He finished speaking, he stood up and walked out excitedly, and Tian Yannian hurriedly got up to chase after him.

But because Tian Yannian is very short, his legs are also shorter, and the appearance of chasing after him is quite funny.

If he weren't wearing a robe, a Confucian crown, and a real 2,000-stone ribbon around his waist, he would easily be regarded as an old internal official by others.

Half an hour later, Liu He took Tian Yannian to a remote courtyard.

There are many such empty courtyards in Weiyang Palace.

One after another, abandoned for various reasons.

Overgrown with weeds and deserted.

Therefore, there is still a lot of room for the entire Weiyang Palace to be used.

Liu He ordered several such courtyards to be cleared, either filled with sundries or kept for future use.

Liu He stood outside the courtyard gate and said to Tian Yannian a little mysteriously: "Tian Qing, those treasures I brought are inside, but you have to go in and see for yourself." ”

Not to mention the treasure of the Son of Heaven, even knowing that there were three hundred knife and axe hands waiting for him inside, Tian Yannian had to go in hard.

"Your Majesty trusts, and the lower officials are flattered."

"Okay, then Tian Qing will come in with me!"

After Liu He finished speaking, he generously went over and pushed open the courtyard door and walked straight in, and Tian Yannian followed in too busy.

The whole courtyard was not big, so Tian Yannian quickly saw some wooden utensils placed under the porch.

Tian Yannian looked quite familiar, but he couldn't tell what it was for a while.

Liu He deliberately did not speak, and let Tian Yannian find out by himself.

Tian Yannian is not a good person, but he is an operator after all, and he knows a lot about farming, so he quickly understood.

These big wooden creatures under the porch seem to be some new farm tools!

"Tian Qing, you might guess what these things are?"

Tian Yannian circled around these things a few times, touched and looked at them, and finally determined that these things were some farm tools that he had never seen before.

"Your Majesty, these are farm tools?!"

"Tian Qing really has good eyesight, it is a farm tool."

"No, no, no, Your Majesty has praised it falsely, the great Si Nong of the lower officials in the past few years has really been in vain, and he has never seen these exquisite farm tools."

Tian Yannian said with a surprised voice, like a person who was quite interested in farming.

Liu He knew Tian Yannian's resume, he had been a guard, a general and a non-staff member, no matter what line of work, he did a very good job.

It's a pity that such a person can't be used for himself, and it has to be a pity.

"Huh? Does Tian Qing know how these farm tools are used? ”

"I can't use it now, but I haven't eaten mutton, and I've seen sheep eat grass, with Weichen's past experience, I can guess that eight or nine are not far from ten." Tian Yannian said to Liu He with a smile.

"Oh? Then I would like to hear what Tian Qing said, what are these farm tools used for. ”

"Okay, then the next official will try it!"

Liu He nodded with a smile and gave permission, he had secretly made up his mind.

If this Tian Yannian can come up with the purpose of these farm tools, then when the East Window incident happens in the future, at least he will not be punished by the clan, and he can also leave a whole corpse.

This is his greatest gift to him.

Of course, Tian Yannian couldn't see through the little Jiujiu in the heart of the Son of Heaven, and after he looked around a few times, he said quite proudly and happily.
