Han emperor system

Chapter 197 Finalizing the matter (second update)
"My lord servant is considerate of the country. It is admirable, but there is no need to borrow money from wealthy households. Don't worry, dear friends, the treasury is not empty. The first emperor once left a sum of money, which was all his years. The money I saved was used in times of national calamity. Not only that, the last time I went to the military academy to punish Jian Shuo, I sent people to raid his home and found 30 gold and silver from his home, which was enough for the court to meet its needs. But I also know from this that the family of our big man's officials is still doing well. People like Jian Shuo can be said to be the richest in the world. Of course, I don't want to find out how everyone's money came from. I just hope that everyone can have more country and country and common people in their hearts, and don't leave like Jian Shuo, otherwise my treasury will get rich again."

Liu Bian raised his hand to stop some ministers, sat on the tall golden hall, pointed at the ministers below with great momentum and said jokingly, but he heard that many ministers were sweating on their backs, and their faces turned pale .

Fortunately, Liu Bian seemed to have just made a joke, and changed the subject after he finished speaking, and asked everyone to discuss the feasibility of the plan proposed by Da Honglu Chen Gong, which must be finalized by the court today.

"My dear friends, I would like to say a few words." At this time, the Empress Dowager He who had been silent behind the jade curtain suddenly spoke out. At this time, all the civil and military officials stood respectfully, facing the Jinluan Hall, listening Empress Dowager He's edict:

"The Young Emperor is newly established. He is still young, and he is not yet able to deal with political affairs well. He needs a lot of assistance from the ministers. However, I am very happy to see the young emperor's words and deeds today, because although the young emperor is young, he is not biased in his thinking. Of course, this is also the result of the brainstorming of all the ministers. In dealing with the two matters of building the mausoleum of the late emperor and arranging the folk spring plowing, the young emperor's approach is quite appropriate. I think it can be implemented, so that the two things go hand in hand and are not wrong with each other. Of course, This palace does not want to interfere in the government affairs, everything depends on the wishes of the ministers, if the young emperor is not thinking thoroughly, everyone can help and be comprehensive."

Naturally, none of the civil and military officials would object to the Empress Dowager He's statement. As for the appropriation of the imperial court, the ministers discussed and calculated the amount of wages given to the peasants, and at the same time decided to use livestock farming tools as part of the remuneration In this way, the treasury only needs to allocate another 15 taels of gold and silver, which is enough.

Liu Bian made a decision immediately, but in order to prevent relevant officials from filling their own pockets, Liu Bian sent Wang Yun, the newly appointed disciple of the third company, to follow up on the matter. He was responsible for the wages of Situ Wang Yunfang's husband and reported to Liu Bian on time.

For Situ Wangyun, Liu Bian has a good understanding through history. This person is quite loyal in his heart, and he will not escape when he dies in a national calamity. Therefore, Liu Bian can rest assured that such a matter is entrusted to him.

"Today's grand ceremony is over. Ladies and gentlemen, come down and arrange all the arrangements for the court meeting. Make sure that the spring plowing and the tomb of the first emperor will not be delayed for two years."

After the dynasty was dispersed, Empress Dowager He ordered the two brothers, General He Jin and Chariot General He Miao, to enter the palace. He unconditionally supports any decision of the young emperor, and the general He Jin silently agrees, only the chariot general He Miao says yes but doesn't think so in his heart.

Liu Bian didn't care about what the Empress Dowager did, but called four auxiliary ministers into the palace. They were General He Jin, Later General Yuan Kai, Tai Fu Cai Yong, Tai Bao Chen Dan, The royal banquet was set up in the study, and they were entertained to eat together, and they were taught many principles of governing the country.

Three days later, under the high-speed operation of the imperial court, [-] civilian husbands have been selected and sent back to their hometowns. They also brought back new farm tools and livestock farming methods, and helped each other with their neighbors in the spring plowing.

The other 20 civilian husbands received their wages from the previous period, and after learning that the court had found a way to solve their spring plowing troubles, all of them were enthusiastic, and their lives had improved. The progress of the project was immediately accelerated, and the quality of the project was also guaranteed.

For a time, the whole Luoyang city, and even the people in the counties and counties of Sili, were spreading the story that the young emperor solved two difficult problems on the day he ascended the throne. Everyone was full of confidence in the young emperor, and felt that such a difficult problem could be solved. Solve it, the big man will definitely be able to restore a stable situation in the future.

In the imperial court, the ministers performed their duties, and everything was very orderly. Many ministers worked very enthusiastically, but there were some exceptions, because Liu Bian deliberately alienated some courtiers. They were all traitors in history. It also includes all the Zhongchang attendants, now Liu Bian basically doesn't need them, as long as they don't make something happen, just ignore them.

Of course, Liu Bian also knew that these people would not be safe, so he sent the green starlings to lurk around the palace to collect some suspicious information. Places of peace of mind, such as the palace of Empress Dowager Dong, such as the bedroom of Bohai King Liu Xie, such as the residence of the eunuchs of the Huangmen, who were often served by Zhongchang.

A few days later, the alienated ministers and eunuchs quietly gathered at Weiyang Palace where Empress Dowager Dong lived. They actually wanted to seek their own interests by celebrating Empress Dowager Dong's birthday.

"Congratulations to the Empress Dowager Sheng An."

Zhongchang servants Zhao Zhong, Zhang Rang, Zhonghuangmen Duan Gui, Hou Lan, Cao Jie, Xia Hui, Guo Sheng, Cheng Kuang, Hussar General Dong Zhong, Yongle Shaofu Fanling, Henan Yin Xuxiang, Taiwei Zhang Wen , Tingwei Cui Lie, Sikong Dinggong and others all knelt in front of Empress Dowager Dong.

Although Empress Dowager Dong is about fifty years old, she has always paid attention to maintenance, so she looks no more than forty or so. She still has the charm of a mid-mature lady, but she has always been at odds with the late emperor. Although she lives in the palace, she seldom shows her face. Some close ministers came to pay her respects from time to time.

Now that the first emperor passed away, the young emperor came to the throne, the Empress Dowager He listened to the government behind the curtain, and the Weiyang Palace was completely deserted, which made Empress Dowager Dong feel cold, but she never thought that so many important court officials would come here in just a few days She greeted herself, and even the Taiwei Zhang Wen and Sikong Dinggong among the three princes also came, which made her feel very excited.

"My loves, please, everyone is an important minister of the court, busy with political affairs, how can you have time to see me, a bad old woman today?" Empress Dowager Dong said to everyone with a smile, and the prince Liu Xie was sitting beside her, eating with relish A plate of glutinous rice cakes.
