At the end of the day, Liu Decai left, he just walked on the front foot, and Yu walked into the greenhouse hall with no worries.

He came to show the Son of Heaven the progress of the implementation of various technologies.

"The output of the paper mill is steadily rising this month, and it will be able to meet the needs of the officials in Chang'an by the end of the year......

"The method of frying steel and filling steel have been sent to various counties......

"The woodcraft workshop has tried to make several new agricultural tools, which can be popularized in the coming year......"

"The natives that Gong Fujun brought from the south before, linked those Jibei seeds, and sent someone to take them to Jiuquan County to try planting......

"The stirrups and saddles have just been tried to make three hundred pairs, and they will be tried for Chang Yilang first......

"Thirty three-spindle pedal spinning wheels were built in Changyi and sent to the weaving room for trial, and the weavers said it was easy to use......

"Taixue sent the first book to be printed to the sealing room, which is the Analects of His Majesty's ruling, a total of 300 copies to be printed, and it will be paid within ten days......"

In this hour's time, Yu Wuwu sat in front of Liu He and talked eloquently to a small book bound with rice paper.

These things were all pushed away by Liu He's confession to Yu Wuwu in the various workshops of Menxia Temple.

Even if one day, Liu He is completely defeated in this game of power, these novelties will become his legacy and continue to benefit the people in the Han Empire.

Even Huo Guang, who was quite dissatisfied with the Son of Heaven at the moment, would never return to use the bulky bamboo slips and wooden coffins once he used this rice paper.

"The Queen Mother has been fine recently, the Queen Mother has listened to Her Majesty's advice, and now she is playing shuttlecock with the palace maids every day, her body is much better, and the stubborn illness of dizziness and chest tightness is also rare,"

The physical condition of the Empress Dowager Shangguan is the last thing that Yu Wuwu played.

After saying this, Yu Wuwu had no more extra words, just quietly waiting for the orders of the Son of Heaven.

Liu He was very relieved about Yu Wuwu, so he just nodded lightly, expressing both recognition and approval.

These things are not only trivial, but also interconnected and easy to ignore.

Now that he has been handled in an orderly manner by Yu Wuwu, it can be seen that he has put a lot of thought into this.

This also proves that Liu He's hard work in the past few years has not been in vain.

Without Yu Wuwu, Dai Zong, and other officials and confidants, the available people in Liu He's hands must be even more stretched.

Dealing with a Huo Guang has already exhausted his mental strength, where is there time to take care of these things.

"Don't worry, you do these things well, better than me." Liu He said.

"Weichen is just doing his duty, Your Majesty praised it."

When he came to Chang'an City, Liu He rarely called Yu Wuwu by his name, and he was more often called "Yu Qing" on weekdays.

It sounds good, and it is more in line with the identities of the two, but it is inevitable that there will be some rustiness.

Liu He suddenly shouted like this now, which made Yu Wuwu stunned for a moment, and suddenly seemed to return to the Fuyao Hall of Changyi Kingdom.

The scene of using the Analects to quarrel flashed in front of the eyes of the two of them at the same time.

Those scenes made them feel happy, and then they felt sad.

This Chang'an City is really too strange, and in just a few months, the hearts of the two of them have changed so much.

"I don't know yet, where did you live after you came to Chang'an City?"

Yu Wuwu didn't expect the Son of Heaven to ask about this trivial matter, but he came back to his senses in an instant, he first smiled shyly, and then continued.

"Dai Zong wants to take care of those Changyi orphans and can't be separated, so he lives in the Changyi Mansion and eats and lives with them."

"Li Zhang and a few of them like to be lively, so they rented a house in Beicheng Guo, which costs two or three thousand yuan a month, and it is not expensive to divide it."

"Weichen likes to be clean, so he rented a single-door and single-family house in Shangguan alone, which costs a thousand yuan a month."

Liu He now knew where these closest subordinate officials lived in Chang'an City, and he couldn't help but feel some self-blame.

In other days, the battle between himself and Huo Guang will reach a fever pitch, and the situation of these subordinate officials will definitely be very dangerous.

He only considered the safety of Zhang Anshi and others, but unknowingly ignored the lives of Yu Wuwu and Dai Zong.

This makes Liu He, who always thinks that "you have to treat people as human beings", why doesn't she feel a trace of self-blame?

"Among you, can any of you bring your family to Chang'an City?"

"No, everyone knows that they are following His Majesty to do great things, so they didn't bring their families to Chang'an."

"And do you have someone to take care of your parents?"

"Several of us have brothers and sisters, and they can take care of our parents...... Yu Wuwu thought for a while and continued, "Weichen was negligent, Ruan Yang is an only son, and now his parents are in Changyi City. ”

"Dai Zong and I have already told the people in the family, let them come over from time to time, help them more, and the work in the fields and fields should not be delayed, Your Majesty can rest assured."

Unexpectedly, Yu Wuwu and Dai Zong handled these things very carefully and properly, which couldn't help but make Liu He choke a little.

"Don't worry, after coming to this Chang'an City, I have a lot of things to do, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you for a while, if you encounter any difficulties, you must remember to tell me, I ......"

Yu Wuwu didn't let Liu He finish his words, he had already stood up and bowed, and said a little crampedly: "Your Majesty is the lord of the world, and we are just ministers of Weimo......"

"You don't have to be so afraid, in this Chang'an City, I am most familiar with you, and I have high hopes for you, so I naturally hope that you can live a better life, you get up." Liu He said.

"No." Yu Wuwu got up and sat down again.

"I still want to ask you, has the middle father been to see the Queen Mother in the past few days, or has he sent someone to meet the Queen Mother?"

"Not yet."

Liu He was a little relieved, but then he began to feel a little uneasy again, what will this middle father do next?

……

After meeting Liu De and Dai Zong, the morning of the day passed in a hurry.

At noon, Fan Ke brought in a lackluster lunch, just two wraps, a bowl of corn rice, a small plate of roasted mutton, and a few guavas that were still fresh.

Compared with the big meat at the banquet, this simple lunch was more in line with Liu He's appetite.

And this unique dietary preference unconsciously gave Liu He a reputation for frugality.

Many palace people and courtiers have been privately praising the legacy of Emperor Xiaowen - even more frugal than Emperor Xiaowen.

This is a bonus.

After lunch, after resting for a while, Liu He continued to meet the courtiers in the greenhouse hall.

Cai Yi, the imperial historian, brought the letters of his subjects received in the past few days, and there were even more than a dozen letters.

It's just that there isn't much useful content in these books. They are all written by some Confucian scholars to advise the Son of Heaven on how to be a Ming monarch.

Liu He is the Son of Heaven, and he doesn't know how to be a Ming Jun; How could these Confucian scholars know?

I'm afraid that it is false that they want to "teach" the Son of Heaven to be the Emperor of Ming, and it is true that they want to gain the appreciation of the Son of Heaven.

But where in the world is there such a cheap and simple thing? Liu He just praised a few words without being salty, and then revealed it.

……

After that, Bingji's hind feet came.

The things he played were all inconsequential little things.

"The heavy rain this summer has soaked some of the pillars of the Chang'an High Temple, and I am afraid that they need to be rebuilt and renovated."

"Some big trees on Maoling were cut down by thieves without authorization, and the Maoling County Order has sent people to track them down."

"Liu Xu, the king of Guangling, had a serious illness a month ago, and now he is not well."

These things, Bingji, as a Lingshang scholar, can make his own decisions, but he always came to play to the Son of Heaven first, which shows that he is cautious.

At this sensitive time, being cautious and cautious is not only a kind of respect for the Son of Heaven, but also a kind of protection for yourself.

After sending Bingji away, Liu He met Zhang Anshi, Wei Xuancheng, Gong Sui and others one after another, and they all played their own things to the Son of Heaven one by one.

Both inside and outside the palace seem to be exceptionally calm.

On this day, the Huo Party did not make any movement.

This gave Liu He a big and small problem.

Because tomorrow will be the day of the small court meeting again.

For more than ten years, the general Huo Guang has never been absent from any court meeting.

So tomorrow, will Huo Guang, who has just been angry with the Son of Heaven "seriously ill", come to preside over the small court meeting?

Liu He had been waiting for Shen Shi with some anxiety, and the pedestrians ordered Dai Zong to come to the greenhouse hall, and finally waited for some caution.

And Dai Zong also brought earth-shattering news to the Son of Heaven.

The general Huo Guang fell ill.

But this time, General Huo Guang was not "pretending to be sick", he was really sick.

Suddenly hearing this news, Liu He was suddenly a little stunned and dazed.

The moment when the Son of Heaven was stunned and dazed, it was not because he was at a loss, but because he saw a new opportunity.

Sleepy and send pillows, this is simply God bless the man.

In the past few days, Liu He used the thunderous momentum of fast in and out, like a whirlwind sweeping acupoints, to snatch a lot of benefits from Huo Guang's mouth.

In the past two days, he has already begun to think about how to temporarily end the battle with Huo Guang in front of him.

However, I have really gone too far by "playing" these days.

Although he had a general direction, Liu He thought about it for two whole days, but still did not come up with an opportunity to "repair the relationship".

Liu He has a lot of chips in his hand that Huo Guang wants, as long as he takes them out, it is enough to make Huo Guang tempted.

But it's not enough to have chips, you have to have a "chance".

Or rather, there has to be a scene.

In that scene, as long as Liu He took out these chips in his hand, he would not make Huo Guang feel that it was an exchange of interests, but would think that it was a kind apology.

This apology may not allow Huo Guang to completely dispel his worries, but at least it makes him hesitate when he chooses to "use force".

If you hesitate, you will lose the opportunity and lose your courage, so that Liu He can have room for error.

Yesterday, Liu He planned to lower his posture and soften in front of Huo Guang.

But now, Huo Guang is sick, which is a God-given opportunity - Liu He doesn't have to admit his mistake to Huo Guang.

A plan gradually took shape in Liu He's heart, he wanted to kill people and punish him, and then scare Huo Guang, so that he couldn't touch his own details.

"How did you find out about this?" Liu He asked eagerly.

"A month ago, Weichen picked a few clever Changyi orphans and tried his best to stuff them into the general's back house."

"My mother-in-law is very spicy and capable, and it is probably not an easy thing to do things in the back house of the General's Mansion, they must have suffered a lot." Liu He smiled bitterly.

The Son of Heaven did not directly ask the general about his illness, but first cared about the few Changyi orphans he had never met, which made Dai Zong's heart feel a little warm.

"Your Majesty, the general's wife is very strict in governing the family, and she beats and scolds the slaves and maids, and I heard that every month there will be corpses carried out of the general's mansion."

Slaves and maids are like cattle and horses, and it doesn't matter if they are killed.

What's more, Tingwei Temple also dared to provoke Huo Xian, and it was normal to kill a few lowly slaves.

Huo Xian even dared to poison the empress of Emperor Xiaoxuan, and a few slaves and maids were killed, which was not a big deal in her heart.

"Let those Changyi orphans be more clever, life is the most important thing, and if you see something wrong, run away."

"No!"

"Okay, then tell me about the middle father's illness."

"Yesterday morning, the general still appeared normally in the mansion, and even stayed in the main hall for a few hours......"

"But at noon, the general suddenly fainted in the main hall, and did not seem to wake up until night."

Liu He counted the time, at that time, it was the time when he sent Chang Yi Lang and Yu Lin Lang to the Prime Minister's Mansion and Taichang Temple to "take over".

It is estimated that at that time, what he did in Chang'an City happened to be known by Huo Guangyi one by one.

It seems that the middle father is really sick of his own anger.

If you put it in the people, you will definitely be scolded by the neighbors as an ungrateful nephew.

However, Liu He still felt a little regretful.

If the middle father was so angry that he died of illness directly, it would be a good thing.

Liu He will definitely hold the funeral of his middle father in a very beautiful and decent manner - it is not impossible to be buried in the system of princes and kings.

"Is the middle father seriously ill?"

If you are as sick as Yang Chang, it is also very good.

"Those two Changyi orphans can't enter the atrium of the back house yet, so they don't know how sick this general is......"

"But now there is no more news coming, and the panic in the back house has gradually subsided, and there must be no major problems."

Huo Guang should be sixty out of fifty this year, and he has already entered the twilight of his life in the Han Dynasty.

Even though Huo Guang's body is different from ordinary people, but the illness comes like a mountain, and the illness goes like a thread, I am afraid it will be difficult to recover the previous demeanor.

Moreover, this is probably only the first blow that Huo Guang has suffered.

In the future, the blows will be more and more and heavier. It's hard to say whether Huo Guang can survive or not.

At this time, Liu He suddenly felt a sense of pity for Huo Guang, the political strongman of the Han Empire.

No matter how powerful you are in the prime of life, you still have to serve the old.

Not to mention the powerful minister Huo Guang, even Emperor Xiaowu has reached his old age, isn't it more and more stupid?

Mercy is mercy, but Liu He will not be soft-hearted.

The rumors that he let Dai Zong and them spread have not yet fermented, and if those rumors are heard by the middle father, I am afraid that his illness will be a little worse.

If that's the case, so much the better.

"Since I'm really sick, then I naturally can't miss this opportunity."

"Come, Dai Zong, immediately draw up an edict for me!"

"No!" Dai Zong was a little excited to lay out the paper and ink, and was ready to start drafting the edict for the Son of Heaven.

"Wait." Liu He shouted towards the door, "Fan Ke, come in!" ”

The little internal official Fan Ke vigorously pushed open the heavy door of the greenhouse hall and respectfully came to the front of the Son of Heaven.

"You are now a Chinese scholar, and I said that I hope you can draw up an edict for me in the future, so let's start learning from today's edict."

"There is pen and ink here, you and Dai Qing draw up the purpose together, and then see where the difference is."

"No." Fan Ke said in a trembling voice, because he was so excited, when he was preparing the pen and ink, he almost touched the inkstone.

The edict issued by Liu He was very simple, as usual, just a few dozen words. He finished speaking in one go, and Dai Zong and Fan Ke also finished writing in one go.

Liu He took these two edicts and read them several times in turn.

He also carefully pointed out some flaws and flaws in the edict drafted by Fan Ke against the edict drawn up by Dai Zong, and then returned the edict written by Dai Zong to him.

"Send this edict to the Shangshu Office for sealing, and then you will immediately go to the General's Mansion to deliver the edict."

Unexpectedly, Dai Zong seemed to have a difficult face and was quite puzzled.

"Dai Zong, if you have any questions, you can ask them at this time."

"Your Majesty, I don't understand why Your Majesty issued such an edict......"

"Since the general is really sick now, then tomorrow's small court meeting will definitely not come......

"Your Majesty can take this opportunity to take a step further in the court, and let the courtiers and officials know that even if there is no general, Your Majesty can make the government unimpeded!"

"Your Majesty's prestige will definitely be higher."

Liu He listened quietly, and it wasn't until Dai Zong finished speaking that he said, "Your analysis is methodical, and it's not wrong. ”

"However, there is one thing, Dai Qing is probably wrong......"

"Today's big court and small court discussions, without the middle father, they really can't turn around."

Dai Zong was a little puzzled and couldn't understand the words of the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven has already taken over the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Shangshu Administration, the Shaofu, and the Great Si Nong in one go, isn't the big court meeting and the small court meeting just a passing scene?

"Don't forget, the most important thing in the Han Dynasty now is the 150,000 Han army going out to fight the Xiongnu, but the General's Mansion is still in the hands of the middle father."

"I don't know how far the war against the Huns has progressed."

"At tomorrow's court meeting, I am afraid that this matter is what the ministers are most concerned about......"

"The more the middle father does not come forward, the more the courtiers will find that the middle father's writing is indispensable."

Liu He's patient explanation made the doubts on Dai Zong's face gradually dissipate.

Now in the court, although most of the courtiers are loyal to the Son of Heaven.

But Huo Guang is still a legitimate auxiliary minister after all, and he has never had an "unforgivable" sin.

When the Son of Heaven and Huo Guang were not dying, these courtiers would definitely be willing to support the Son of Heaven.

But now that it has not reached this point, they will still regard Huo Guang as the cornerstone of the court.

This is due to inertia, but also to facts.

"I've done enough in the past few days, and it's very difficult to get practical things even further, and now I have to attack my heart first, so that my middle father is terrified."

"Dai Qing, do you understand?"

"Wechen understands, Your Majesty Shengming, it's Wechen who is stupid."

"There is still an hour before dark, hurry up, and be sure to deliver the edict to the general before sunset today."

"No!"
