Chapter 219: Middle Father, But Do You Think I Want to Seize Power?
It is gold that can shine anywhere, as long as Liu He is given a piece of land, then Liu He can plant towering trees on it.
Therefore, it was not this incident that disappointed Liu He, what disappointed him was that Huo Guang still refused to give up power.
Then, the Huo clan lost another chance to avoid the annihilation of the clan.
"Father Zhong, do you really want me to govern the government? Do you think I'm okay? ”
"Well, military affairs, taxes, and employment are not good things for the time being, but Your Majesty can start with some small things, Your Majesty is the bloodline of Emperor Gao, and you must be able to make some achievements."
"Your Majesty can think about it at this moment, what else do you want to do?" Huo Guang looked at Liu He with an encouraging look, and seemed to be very sincere.
These few words just now are like drawing a circle, drawing everything related to the lifeblood of the Han Empire to the outside.
Huo Guang seems that outside this circle, there are not many things that the Son of Heaven can choose; But in Liu He's opinion, there are still many things to choose from outside this circle.
Although this is only a part of the government, for Liu He, this is still like a huge treasure trove, so that Liu He, who has always been empty-handed, does not know how to choose.
There are many things that Liu He wants to do, but he has to think about what to do first.
After thinking about it for a long time, Liu He finally determined what he thought in his heart.
The next three things to be put forward are what Liu He wants to do the most.
"Your Majesty has you thought about it?" Huo Guang asked again.
Liu He suppressed the joy in his heart, he couldn't agree now, he had to refuse again to show his sincerity.
Then use the method that Huo Guang once used.
On that day, Huo Guang forced Liu He to ask "Do you ever think that the old man is domineering", which almost made Liu He think that the thing he planned happened, and Liu He was almost distracted.
Today, Liu He wants to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth, and also to scare the general.
Liu He didn't answer, he lowered his head, brewing emotions.
When his grief-stricken face overflowed, he finally raised his head slowly.
"Father, do you think I want to take your power?"
These words were earth-shattering, making Huo Guang, who was originally calm and composed, freeze in place.
In astonishment, he couldn't help but look around, for fear of rushing out of the ambushed sword and axe men from both sides of the main hall.
Fortunately, the birdsong outside the hall is still there, and the years are quiet.
Yu Wuwu, a close minister of the Son of Heaven, stood outside the hall without any movement, and those Changyi Lang, who were getting stronger and stronger, did not move without moving.
The weather was clear and there was not a trace of dark clouds.
But this made Huo Guang even more frightened.
The Son of Heaven seems to blame himself, but in fact he is torturing Huo Guang.
"The middle father hasn't answered me yet, do you think I want to seize power and pro-government?"
Huo Guang stood up in a bit of a panic, because he was in a hurry to stand up, and almost tripped over the hem of his robe.
He couldn't stand firm, and Huo Guangbai fell in front of Liu He.
If Liu He is not mistaken, this is the first time that Huo Guang has bowed so sincerely.
Liu He knew that this Huo Guang was not worshipping himself, he was worshipping the emperors of the Han Dynasty, and he was worshipping the Mandate of Heaven of the Han Dynasty.
In front of the ancestors of the past generations and the mandate of heaven, Huo Guang is nothing.
"Your Majesty said this, the old man has no such intention!" Huo Guang said sincerely.
"Don't be afraid, just get up and speak." Liu He said lightly.
Seeing that Huo Guang still didn't dare to stand up, Liu He personally got up and helped the complex and changeable, suspicious by nature, and conflicted auxiliary minister from the ground.
"Middle father, I said that the government is controlled by the middle father, and I am very relieved."
"However, I don't hide it from my middle father, I really want to do something above the court."
"The first few times, I didn't make it clear to you, so I made my own decisions, just because I was afraid that you wouldn't agree."
"If the middle father thinks that I am acting inappropriately, then from now on, the big court will not speak, and the small court will not show up, so as not to hurt the middle father's heart."
While Liu He spoke, he forcibly squeezed out a few tears, and even made a sad appearance.
As soon as this set of processes came, Huo Guang was even more at a loss.
"Your Majesty thinks too much, Your Majesty wants to be a Ming Jun is not wrong, but the old man thinks too much, worried that His Majesty will not be able to manage the government, and now I see that Your Majesty is interested in the government and has the demeanor of a Ming Jun, so I put forward this proposal."
"If Your Majesty thinks that the old man is deliberately blackmailing, then the old man will hang up the seal and seal the government now, and never ask about any political affairs again."
In this case, of course, it is the best!
However, true and false, at this moment, Liu He couldn't tell which sentence Huo Guang said was true and which sentence was false.
Perhaps, at this moment, what Huo Guang said was true.
But if Liu He agreed, after Huo Guang returned home, he would inevitably regret it.
In that case, Liu He's situation would be embarrassing.
Liu He didn't speak directly, but sighed one after another before he said: "Father Zhong, I have no intention of seizing power and being in power, and I also ask Father Zhong not to think about it anymore." ”
"If the middle father really doesn't think about it, I am willing to try to participate in the government."
"The old man has no such intention, he just wants His Majesty to learn to be a Ming Jun earlier."
"Okay, in that case, I'll listen to my middle father's arrangement."
"Your Majesty is wise."
This temptation took a lot of energy: Liu He wanted to perform a self-blaming appearance, and Huo Guang was also shocked enough.
Liu He hurriedly asked Fan Ke outside the door to bring a pot of hot tea, and both of them drank a cup, and the two of them settled down and returned to the original topic.
"Since the middle father wants me to participate in the government affairs, then I will pick some small things that can be done to do, and the middle father will help me see if it is feasible, if my eyes are low, I must point it out." Liu He said.
"The old man obeys."
"Father Zhong must know that when I was in Changyi, I was quite fascinated by farming, salt and iron, carpentry, lacquerwork, shipbuilding, and other things, and felt that there was naturally endless fun in them, so I wanted to make some articles on these things."
"Can I leave these things to me, and some of the expenses can also be paid by the Shaofu, which can also be regarded as taking from the people and the people."
Huo Guang was a little surprised, he didn't expect the Son of Heaven to bring up these things, but when he thought of His Majesty's past comments, he didn't think it was strange.
"Your Majesty, the money obtained from the salt and iron monopoly is to be put into the name of Dasi Nong, and I am afraid it will not be classified into the Shaofu."
Huo Guang obviously misunderstood, mistakenly thinking that the Son of Heaven was going to take the opportunity to make money.
"Father Zhong is wrong, I only do things, I don't want money, the world is rich, and the Shaofu will naturally have income, I don't compete with the people for profit, let alone the country."
Liu He attaches great importance to these things, but Huo Guang does not pay attention to these things.
These things are all "utensils" and will not affect the Huo family's absolute control over the Han Empire.
"Since Your Majesty has the heart to participate in political affairs, then Your Majesty can only let it go, but these practices are under different government offices, and there are a lot of things, I am afraid that Your Majesty will overwork and damage the Holy Body." Huo Guang said.
"I can recruit my subordinates, and it will be much easier to do it as my right and left." Liu He said.
"Well, then Your Majesty will do it."
Liu He was very excited, and he couldn't wait to say the second thing.
"I still want to try to manage too much."
If Huo Guang thinks that the workshop is still of some use to the Han Empire, then Taixue, Huo Guang looks down on those doctoral officials and doctoral disciples from the bottom of his bones.
Those doctoral officials in Taixue have mastered the essence of Confucian classics at best, and they are just the mascots of Confucianism in the court.
They said that they could provide the words of the sages to support the national policies formulated by the imperial court, but in fact, many officials in the court were also great Confucians, so the chances of using doctoral officials were very small.
As for the doctoral disciples, although they can be sent out to be officials, they are all low-ranking officials, so there is nothing to worry about.
There are many scholarly families in the Han Dynasty, but there are only a few in Taixue, and it is unlikely to make waves.
"Does Your Majesty really want to deal with those Confucian students?" Huo Guang asked in disbelief.
Last month, the Son of Heaven fought with them, but he didn't expect to be involved now, and the Son of Heaven doesn't look like a person who loves to read.
"Exactly, I can also take this opportunity to read more."
Seeing that the Son of Heaven said it so firmly, Huo Guang had no reason to refuse.
"If Your Majesty is willing to make friends with Confucianism, it is not a bad thing, and the old man will not ask about this matter."
"Then along with the order of the school in the county and the county, let me try to take care of it, right?"
Taixue, county school, and county school are still government offices, and there is almost no difference between the order of the township and private school, and I am afraid that there are only a few Confucian students.
Among all the government offices, these are the least oil and water to be fished, and if an official is put here, it is almost hopeless to be promoted and make a fortune.
Huo Guang has never interfered in this matter.
If you use it to make trouble for the Son of Heaven, even if something goes wrong, it will not have any negative impact on the Han.
"Your Majesty can care about these Confucian scholars, and you also have the demeanor of a Ming monarch, which can be managed by Your Majesty."
You can't be too greedy, there is one last thing to mention, and Liu He is satisfied.
"The last thing, I want to build Ling County for the first emperor's Pingling."
Different from the previous two things, after Liu He finished talking about this matter, Huo Guang's face changed.
The construction of Ling County is not a trivial matter.
