At this time, the originally empty courtyard of Dasi Nong Temple seemed to be a little crowded because of the large number of people.

The courtyard is surrounded by the mighty Yu Lin Lang, and in the middle is the crowded officials of the Dasi Nong Temple.

The sun had already climbed into the air, but the autumn wind that had suddenly blown up was tight.

Under the bleak autumn wind, the three birch trees in the courtyard shook and shook the last few leaves of their bodies to the ground.

When Liu He, dressed in the robe of the Son of Heaven, walked from the main hall to the eaves, all the subordinate officials remembered a voice in their hearts at the same time, and this voice made them fall to their knees involuntarily.

"The ministers ask His Majesty the Emperor!"

In front of Liu He's eyes, a black, gray, or white human head appeared.

Because everyone is kneeling, even if Liu Hesuo is only three feet high on the stairs, there is still a feeling of being on top.

"Zhongqing is flat." Liu He said calmly.

"No!"

Just now, the subordinate officials knelt down in one piece; And now, the whole thing is standing up.

Liu He noticed the color of the group ribbons around the waists of these people.

What he didn't expect was that in addition to the copper-sealed yellow ribbons representing 200 to 600 stones, there were actually many copper-sealed black ribbons of 600 stones and above.

"I am very pleased that Zhongqing can come with illness today, and I thank Zhongqing again."

As soon as the words fell, before all the subordinate officials came back to their senses, Liu He, who was standing under the eaves, suddenly bent down and bowed down to this group of subordinate officials.

It is not uncommon to stand and bow for a while, and it is not only a courtier to bow to the king. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was just a daily etiquette.

But in today's situation, the Son of Heaven already has supreme authority, and this worship is earth-shattering.

Before, Liu He, who was only the king of Changyi, had bowed down to the people in the Changyi Prime Minister's Mansion, which already made them panic.

Not to mention that now, Liu He is already the Son of Heaven and the emperor of the Han Empire.

The moment he bent down, the courtyard suddenly became unusually quiet.

Even the sound of falling leaves hitting the ground seems to be audible.

Immediately after, a panicked movement sounded.

The tall, short, fat and thin officials in the courtyard, along with the Yu Lin Lang, all fell to their knees like trees blown down by the wind.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, by all means!"

"Your Majesty, why is it so!"

"I'll wait for it!"

……

A wail resounded in the sky.

This scene seems a little embarrassing and funny, but it also reveals a solemnity.

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me!"

Liu He straightened up and raised his voice.

The crowd gradually quieted down from front to back.

"I have not been on the throne for a long time, but fortunately, with the support of my middle father, and the assistance of the three princes and nine secretaries, and the help of the secretaries, the government of this dynasty will not stagnate."

"Now, in the late autumn, many officials and officials in Chang'an City are cautious, I am really worried, but the government cannot be abandoned, only I hope that the ministers can endure the illness and do things, and I can only thank them with a false courtesy."

"I hope that Zhongqing can accept my worship!"

After speaking, Liu He bowed down again.

Suddenly, the subordinate officials in this courtyard also bowed down one after another, and even asked the Son of Heaven to stand up.

After some tugging, the Son of Heaven and the others returned to normal.

If these subordinate officials just now came for the great money and food; Then in the days to come, they will worship the Son of Heaven for this time.

The grace of knowing is not only valued by the three princes and nine secretaries, but also by ordinary subordinate officials.

It won't be long before this scene that happened in the Great Sinong Temple will spread throughout Chang'an City.

When the time comes, everyone will know that the Son of Heaven is sympathetic to his subordinates' hard work.

Buying horse bones for a thousand dollars is nothing more than that.

"Tian Qing, you stand by my side." Liu He said.

Tian Yannian limped to the Son of Heaven with doubts.

"Dasi farmland prolongs his life, and he is riddled with waist diseases, but he does not quit his official duties, which is really an example and model for the courtiers of the Han Dynasty......"

"In normal times, he is even more conscientious, walking among the strangers, wearing the stars and the moon, enduring hunger and cold......"

"In order to reward him for his contributions, I have decided to make him a marquis at the beginning of spring next year!"

Suddenly, the discussion in the courtyard resumed.

This happened too suddenly—for ordinary people, the feudal marquis was too far away, and being able to see it with his own eyes was already a thing worth boasting about.

And Tian Yannian, who was still mourning the examination just now, was even more stunned.

It took a long time for this stunned impression to come back to me.

In the end, it turned into a flood of ecstasy in my heart.

He was actually made a marquis like this?

An hour ago, he was the same sinner who was pressed to the ground and beaten half to death!

Under the great joy and sorrow, this big Sinong who has seen a lot of winds and waves can no longer be suppressed, and he burst into tears on the spot.

Then, ignoring the pain in his lower back, he knelt down directly, knocked his head on the ground, and kept thanking the Son of Heaven.

Since it's acting, you have to act enough.

Liu He helped Tian Yannian up.

"Tian Qing, this matter of collecting land rent and taxes is the top priority, and doing this well is a great achievement......

"I don't want to see any more accidents, you might be able to do it?"

"Your Majesty, rest assured, even if Weichen dies in this main hall, he will never delay for a moment, and he will definitely let every grain of millet, every penny, and every foot of cloth go to the warehouse where it should go!"

Tian Yannian's words were a little vulgar, but they also came from the heart.

In any case, in the next few months, this Tian Yannian will not be considered a Huo Party for the time being.

Liu He said some words of encouragement to everyone present, and then left the Dasi Nong Temple, got on the car again, and walked away in the eyes of everyone.

This great Sinong Temple, the overall situation has been decided!

Outside the door of the Great Sinong Temple, Tian Yannian watched the Son of Heaven chariot leave, and the pain in his back suddenly came over again, making him break out in a cold sweat.

However, the expression on his face was very happy and satisfied, and there was no trace of pain.

He turned around slowly, looked at the hundreds of subordinate officials behind him, and then stubbornly picked up Jiuqing's shelf, and paced to the crowd.

"What are you waiting to look at, half of today's hour has passed, how can you waste time again, and don't hurry up and perform their duties?"

"No!"

Everyone immediately dispersed, and the entire Dasi Nong Temple finally returned to its former liveliness and busyness.

Tian Yannian came to the main hall and sat down in the first place.

After experiencing those things just now, he had a sense of happiness for the rest of his life, and he thought he had seen a lot clearly.

Now, the direction of the wind in the court has changed.

I'm afraid the general's stove can't burn anymore.

If you want to make the Tian family more prominent, you have to burn the stove of the Son of Heaven.

I have worked hard for so many years and done so many things for the Huo family, and I have worked hard without merit.

But the general doesn't even give himself a mere too often.

On the contrary, it is the Son of Heaven, and as soon as he makes a move, he is a marquis.

Which is more important and which is lighter, Tian Yannian can see it at a glance.

It seems that it's time to make a break with the Huo family.

And the tens of millions of dollars a year can also be saved and put into your own pockets.

It's a good deal.

The beating of the Son of Heaven just now, he was worth it.

Thinking of this, Tian Yannian even cheered up in the main hall, waiting for the subordinate officials to submit the government affairs to the report.

This is Tian Yannian's dream.

But it is destined to be a sweet dream that will wake up.

……

On the car, Dai Zong, who has always been straightforward, asked the doubts in his heart.

"Your Majesty, will giving someone like Tian Yannian a marquis, will it cause dissatisfaction among other courtiers?"

"Dai Qing, what I said is that I will give him the title of marquis after the beginning of spring next year."

"But, if he can live to that time, do you think he will live to that time?"

Dai Zong suddenly realized that the foreshadowing of the Son of Heaven was buried here.

"Your Majesty is wise, it's a matter of vain discussion by the ministers."

"The overall situation in Chang'an City has been decided, and the Prime Minister's Mansion and Taichang Temple do not need to be visited in person, but they can be decided!"

"Prepare the paper and ink, and draw up the edict for me right here."

"No!"

Xue Ti drove the car very steadily, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as if he was walking on the ground.

Therefore, the speeding Anche did not affect Dai Zong in the slightest to take out a pen and paper to write—he also prepared a wooden board in advance, all as a few cases to help write.

At this time, Chang'an City had completely woken up from its sleep, and it was a little more lively than when Liu He set off from the Yang Palace.

Although the route chosen by Xue Ti had avoided crowded places as much as possible, it still inevitably disturbed the people along the road.

As soon as those people saw the battle of the Son of Heaven, they either turned around and ran, or fell down on their knees in the street.

For a while, it also caused a lot of confusion.

Looking at these people, Liu He fell into a short period of thought.

Just now, in the courtyard of Dasi Nong Temple, Liu He saw that many subordinate officials of about a thousand stones were also present.

This means that Liu He's five edicts are also binding or tempting to officials around Qianshi.

Officials with a rank of 1,000 stones are generally the second officials in the various prefectures.

As long as they are willing to cooperate, then a government office can basically resume operation.

Liu He doesn't have to clean up Prime Minister Ren Palace and Taichang Lecheng like he cleaned up Tian Yannian, and he can also let the Prime Minister's Mansion and Taichang Temple return to normal.

Then the crux of the problem lies in how to make Ren Gong and Le Chengzhen honestly "sick", instead of coming out to obstruct it.

As the Son of Heaven, if Liu He came forward in person, he would definitely be able to suppress Ren Gong and Le Cheng easily.

But the problem is that Liu He can't be separated, so he has to send someone to supervise and suppress them instead of himself.

However, the trusted courtiers and subordinate officials around Liu He all performed their duties, and they couldn't spare extra manpower for the time being.

Liu He thought about it for a moment, and then turned his gaze to the four Changyi Lang who were guarding both sides of the car.

This is someone Liu He trusts, I don't know if they can handle this matter well.

In the end, Liu He decided to give it a try.

When the chariot came to a more secluded place, Liu He ordered the entire chariot to stop.

"Dai Zong, I'll come, you will write."

"No!"

"The prime minister Ren Gong is infected with a vicious disease, and he can't go to the government to do anything, I am sympathetic to the situation, and I will give it three months, and during the period, I don't need to go to the palace to do anything. However, the Prime Minister's Mansion is the hub of government and government, and it cannot be abandoned for a day......"

"I have issued this edict, and the prime minister will directly act as the prime minister for the time being; The prime minister is not there, and the prime minister is temporarily acting as the prime minister; The prime minister's long history is not there, and the prime minister will temporarily replace the prime minister. ”

After thinking about it, Liu He added the last sentence: "If anyone resists the edict and stops it, it doesn't matter if you kill it on the spot!" ”

The "affairs on behalf of the prime minister" mentioned here are, of course, not to participate in the major affairs of the court on behalf of the prime minister, but only to manage the affairs of the prime minister's office on behalf of the prime minister.

As for the political affairs in the court, it doesn't matter whether there is a prime minister or not.

Or rather, it would be better if there was none.

All major matters are decided by the Son of Heaven, so why not?

Subsequently, Liu He drafted the same edict for Taichang Temple: Taichang Qing, Taichang Cheng and Zhangsu used this as a substitute to do Taichang things.

"How, is it ready?"

"It's ready."

"Read it to me."

"No!"

Dai Zong read it from beginning to end, and there was no problem with all the details, it was the format and writing of the edict.

"Okay, there's no more to it about."

"Your Majesty, do you want a seal?" Dai Zong asked.

"It's nature."

Liu He said, and suddenly bent down and groped out a square wooden box from the corner of the couch.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, he opened the red and black lacquer box.

The heirloom jade seal appeared.

"This ...... Your Majesty, is this the jade seal of the country? Dai Zongyou asked dumbfounded.

"Exactly, this heirloom jade seal is much better than my private seal."

"But ......"

Dai Zong originally wanted to remind the Son of Heaven that such an important "important weapon of the country" could not be easily taken out of the palace, but was blocked by Liu He with a wave of his hand.

"Don't worry too much about this matter, now Bingqing is in charge of the Shangshu Department, and no one will find out about this heirloom jade seal."

"What's more, I am the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty, isn't it normal to use the jade seal of the country?"

Dai Zong didn't know how to deal with it for a while, because he found that there was a truth in what the Son of Heaven said out of ten.

Liu He took out the jade seal of the country and stamped the big seal on the edict on this car.

He fantasized countless times about the first time he used the jade seal independently, and he always thought that it would be stamped on an incomparably important edict.

But I didn't expect that the first time I used the heirloom jade seal was in this unobstructed car, and there was no sense of solemnity and solemnity.

Plans can't keep up with the changes.

A few months ago, in the Shangshu Administration, Liu He first encountered the jade seal of the country under Huo Guang's loving and caring eyes.

At that time, the two were really like father and son.

At that time, Liu He did think that maybe he could reach a balance with Huo Guang for a long time.

But unfortunately, the monarchy and the relative power are naturally opposed.

Not to mention the relative rights that have begun to infringe on the monarchy's power.

It is certainly impossible for the two to coexist peacefully.

And Liu He also understood a truth, no edict is particularly important, because every edict is very important.

Liu He looked at the edict stamped with the jade seal of the country and nodded slightly.

"Call all four of them."

"No!"

The four Changyi Lang got off the horse and came to the car of the Son of Heaven.

These four Changyi Lang were dressed in full armor, and their faces could not be seen too clearly, but Liu He could still recognize them.

"Xiong Zhong and Yun Zhong, the two of you take fifty Yu Lin Lang to the Prime Minister's Mansion to read the edict, no matter who stops them, you can kill them on the spot."

"Yui!"

"Badger Cong, disrespectful, you two also take fifty feathers to Taichang Temple to read the edict, no matter who stops it, you can also kill it on the spot."

"Yui!"

These Changyi Lang used to be evil slaves in the Changyi Palace, so their names were all cheap names, and they didn't even have a surname.

Liu He once wanted to change the surname to Liu for all of them, but after thinking about it, he still gave up.

In the future, if they can make meritorious contributions and take the first character of their cheap name as their surname, wouldn't it be even faster?

"Remember, with this edict, you are the embodiment of me, and whatever happens to you, you must act according to the edict."

Although this sentence of the Son of Heaven is only half said, it contains many profound meanings.

This means that even if Prime Minister Ren Gong, Taichang Lecheng, and General Huo Guang come forward to stop them, these four Changyi Lang must have the courage to draw their swords.

At this time of equal strength, whoever has a little more courage may win in the confrontation.

"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, I hope you are the brave, not the weak!"

"Yui!"

"Go, I'm in Weiyang Palace, waiting for your triumph."

The four Changyi Lang didn't say anything more, and saluted and said goodbye.

One hundred Yu Lin Lang separated from the chariot guards, and under the ties of the four Changyi Lang, like two streams of red and black water, flowed in the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion and Taichang Temple.

Liu He's heart suddenly felt a little heavy.

Whether these people will be seen again is anyone's guess.

If Huo Guang wants to break the net, then these four Changyi Lang and these more than 100 Yu Lin Lang will become the sacrifice of the Huo Party's sacrificial flag.

According to the previous judgment, Huo Guang should not use force.

However, a few days ago, it was Huo Guang who crossed the line; And now, isn't the Son of Heaven crossing the line?

All judgments have a lag, and it is possible that Huo Guang will react to it.

Perhaps, after a few hours, Chang'an City will fall into a sword shadow.

"Dai Zong, today's form is changing rapidly, Taixue is safer, you don't have to go with me."

"You stay in the city, go to the Changyi Mansion to command the Changyi orphans, and keep an eye on the important places such as the lieutenant of the middle base, the ruling Jinwu, the general's mansion, the Tingwei Temple, Zuo Fufeng, and Jing Zhaoyin."

These government offices have more or less military power in their hands, and if Huo Guang wants to fight hard, there will definitely be changes in these places.

"No!"

"Zhang Anshi is in Weiyang Palace at the moment, once there is any change, he will immediately go to report to him, he knows what to do."

Arsenal, Shangguanli, Qili, Imperial Prison...... Zhang Anshi and Wang Ji have made complete arrangements.

Liu He mentions it again now, but it is just an additional insurance.

"Your Majesty, since the situation is so critical, isn't it safer to return to the palace?"

"No, I don't know how long this tense situation will last, do I have to stay in Weiyang Palace all the time, holding back?"

"Now, I am the sharpest knife, and I want to turn the world upside down in my middle father's belly."

"What's more, I am walking the royal road above board today, and no one can question what I am doing, even if the middle father comes, I can't stop my footsteps."

"This matter is immutable."

Although it is said lightly, in fact, Liu He has already made up his mind to die, maybe, he can't live today?

"Wechen understood."

"Go ahead."

"Yui!"
