Chapter 291: Huo Guang wants to force the Son of Heaven to admit his mistake (ask for subscription)
"Don't forget, don't forget, if this matter set in the court today can be overturned, then the things we set in the court tomorrow will also be overturned."
"If the order changes, in the end, no one will benefit, and it will only be more chaotic."
"The county official is quite a wise gentleman, if he wants to speak widely, and he wants to be written by the people of the world, let him open it, how can I, as a courtier of the Han Dynasty, disobey the king's orders?"
Huo Guang said lukewarmly, but he couldn't hear too much unwillingness.
Compared with Ren Gong, Huo Guang thought of a higher level, he could grab food to eat, but he couldn't smash the pot.
"But the thing Cai Yi mentioned is clearly to weaken the power of the Shang Shu Department, and that is to ...... you, the general."
Ren Gong didn't say it to the end, when he was in the main hall just now, he could suppress the other courtiers, but in front of Huo Guang, he was nothing, and he couldn't speak rashly if he had some unpleasant words.
"The old man knows." Huo Guang only said a few extremely short words in response to Ren Gong.
Including Ren Gong, these courtiers who were well-known in the court were all silent, and no one dared to intervene anymore, they knew that the general already had an idea in his heart.
"The county official is Mingjun, although he is a little confused now, but he will eventually see who is the pillar of the Han Dynasty."
"A month ago, the old man occasionally felt a cold and never recovered, and before today's court meeting, there was a lot of cold wind, and he felt unwell."
"The old man is old, and now Chen Ji's new illness is coming together, and his mental strength is insufficient, and it is difficult to deal with the affairs of the palace at the same time.
Ren Gong and the others were a little surprised, at first they thought that the general was talking angrily, but looking at the calm expression of the other party, they dispelled this misunderstanding.
After thinking about it quickly, they soon understood Huo Guang's intentions.
Calling himself sick and quitting things, only taking care of military affairs, and ignoring the government and politics is the way the general dealt with the Son of Heaven.
For more than ten years, the government of the Han Dynasty has been centered on the general, and if the court leaves him, it will not only be stagnant, but also chaotic.
As long as the government is in turmoil, the county officials will understand who are the pillars and pillars of the court!
"The general is ill and can manage military affairs, he is already loyal, and it is the duty to call sick leave, so how should we act?" Ren Gong asked cautiously.
Now, in addition to the major event of the 150,000 Han army conquering the Xiongnu, there are two other things that are the most important thing for the Han Dynasty.
One is the collection of rents. Rents are being collected one after another, and the part of the rents to be handed over to the imperial court in various parts of the Kanto region is being transported to Chang'an in a steady stream through Cao and land transportation.
This matter is handled by the big Si Nong and the Shaofu, and the money, grain, cloth and silk transported have their own places, and how to register them...... It's all a small thing to the limit.
The other is to verify and report the county's plan -- the content of the county's plan at the end of last year should be completed by October this year, and this will be used as the evaluation of the county's minister.
This matter is led by the Prime Minister Ren Palace, and the prime ministers and long histories of the counties have arrived in Chang'an one after another, and there is a division to compare the content of the plan with the content of the report one by one, to see if the counties have completed the affairs mentioned in the plan.
The difference between the two is small, which means that if you do things solidly, you can get a good evaluation; There is a big difference between the two, which means that if you waste time, you will fall into a poor evaluation.
In order to get a good evaluation, some county ministers will work on the content of the report, and it is by no means easy to see the problems.
If the matter of receiving rents is not handled well, then the money and grain will not be able to enter the warehouse, and it will rot on the road, and the court may "not be able to make ends meet" in the coming year.
If the matters on the report are not handled well, it will not only make the hearts of the people of the county and country fluctuate, but also affect the appointment and dismissal of personnel in the coming year.
These two things are important things that cannot be delayed.
If you delay for a while, you may not see much impact, but in the future, you can always see the harm.
It is precisely these two major events that are controlled by the Huo Party: this is both power and responsibility, and it is also power.
Ren Gong was very careful when he asked this sentence, naturally he had other intentions.
"The princes and the old man work together day and night, which one does not have some hidden diseases, if there is a disease, it is natural to be cured, the county official is kind-hearted, and he must not blame us."
This time, Huo Guang had already made his words very clear.
Use sick leave to confront the Son of Heaven, and use obstruction of the government and the game of the Son of Heaven.
Once you take this step, it's time to show your attitude.
This will make Huo Guang's domineering more solid.
Because, the Son of Heaven can sing against the courtiers, but the courtiers can't sing against the Son of Heaven.
So, that's a risky thing to do.
But with Huo Guang behind them, Ren Gong and they dared to do this-who made the general the one who was taller than the Son of Heaven in the Han Dynasty?
Huo Guang saw that although the people in Ren Gong hesitated, they did not completely refuse, so he continued to tell what he was thinking one by one.
In addition to the military affairs related to the northern expedition of the 150,000-strong army against the Xiongnu, the verification and reporting of the plan and the collection of rents must be stopped.
Not only Huo Guang wanted to complain, but also several people present.
And this is not enough, the prime minister's mansion, Dasi Nong and the large and small subordinate officials in the Taichang Temple have to call sick leave.
In this way, in less than three or five days, Chang'an City, which now looks like an Anle and peaceful store, will become a different look.
The horse-drawn carriages carrying money and grain from Dongcheng Guo will block the entire official road in the east; The officials waiting at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion to report the report will be restless.
When the time comes, we will have to see how the Son of Heaven responds.
However, Huo Guang is still measured, except for these three mansions, the rest of the mansions are still business as usual.
Zhijinwu also has to maintain the law and order of Chang'an City; The three auxiliary chiefs can't be relaxed and let the thieves cause chaos; Tingwei should also watch many prisons to prevent prisoners from escaping.
After all, Huo Guang also didn't allow Chang'an City to really fall into chaos - just let the Son of Heaven admit his mistakes.
After Huo Guang explained, Ren Gong and the others had no objections on the surface, but they kept muttering in their hearts.
Although the general said it was reasonable, it seemed to be too weak, and a few years ago, the general had already made a decision, at least to arrest Zhang Anshi and those people.
Huo Guang saw the doubts of these henchmen, and after explaining everything, he continued: "Do you think that the old man is a little weak? ”
Ren Gong and the others hurriedly bowed their heads and said they didn't dare, but they didn't say no.
When there is no continuation, there will be chaos, and this is a truth that many people understand.
Since the general can ask this sentence now, he must have already considered the follow-up matters
"Don't forget, Zhang Anshi and Wang Ji are also among them, and they have a lot of soldiers under their command, including six or seven thousand."
Five or six thousand, not to mention a lot, is simply too much.
Even if Huo Guang mobilized the rest of the soldiers in Chang'an City, he would not be able to take Weiyang Palace.
Therefore, before the hundreds of thousands of Han troops of the northern expedition against the Xiongnu returned to Chang'an, Huo Guang could not and did not dare to confront Zhang Anshi and others, so he could only use other methods to wrestle with the Son of Heaven.
At this moment, Huo Guang and the Son of Heaven are like two bulls that have already fought with red eyes, their horns are against each other, and they want to win but it is difficult to advance by half a point.
At this time, brute force no longer worked, and Huo Guang could only choose other ways to defeat the other party.
Kick with your hooves and shake your tail - fortunately, Huo Guang grasps the most important mansions in the court.
It is useless to use these government offices to fight hard, but they can force the Son of Heaven to submit.
Do you want the lease from the Son of Heaven? Do you care about the officials of the plan?
When the time comes, the people will be full of grievances, if the Son of Heaven doesn't care about it, then the people still don't care about it?
But if Huo Guang has more than 5,000 elite soldiers in his hands, then he will not choose this method that damages the Han court.
But the key is that he doesn't, the more than 2,000 horses of the lieutenant of the middle base, plus the eight or nine thousand pavilion guards who hold Jinwu and Sanfu, will definitely not be able to take the Weiyang Palace.
I'm afraid that Zhang Anshi and the others also saw that Fan Mingyou and others were leading the troops outside, so they dared to take advantage of this gap to dare to do such a bad thing in a bold and reckless manner.
Several people in the Ren Palace looked at each other, what the general knew, they knew that they had to explain to the general what they had discussed just now.
Otherwise, you will miss out on this perfect opportunity.
"General, I have a plan, I don't know if the general dares to listen?" Ren Gong stood up and said.
"If Ren Gong has any plan, it doesn't hurt to say it directly." Huo Guang nodded.
Ren Gongyou hesitated for a moment, and finally seemed to have made a lot of determination and said what he thought in his heart.
Ask for a commuter pass!
