Father Han Gaozu

Three or four days later, the incident in Xu County was full of turmoil in Chang'an.

The fact is true, Zhou Yi was arrested on the same day, and his father Zhou Kaifang was also arrested. As the grandson of the former Prime Minister Zhou Chang, Zhou Yi did such a thing, and the impact was extremely bad. Zhou Chang lost all face.

Just as the officials were waiting for the emperor's thunderous anger, an explosive news suddenly spread.

Your Majesty wants to get rid of Ji Bu and take Chao Cuo as the censor doctor.

When they heard the news just now, the officials didn't quite believe it. Who is this Chao Cuo? ? ?

The best candidate for the Sangong is Lu Jia. Even if it is not Lu Jia, there is Wang Tianqi, the younger one is Luan Bu, the worse is Jia Yi, the local Liu Jing, Chai Wu, etc., can also be in charge. It's not that guy's turn to be in charge.

However, a few days later, when the emperor personally worshiped Chao Cuo as Sangong during the court meeting, the officials couldn't sit still.

The Sangong is not an appointment, but an obeisance. This is the particularity of the status of the Sangong. Other official positions are to thank the emperor first. Return the gift, and then serve.

Just from the procedures of the superior, you can see the gold content of Sangong.

The ministers watched in amazement as the emperor paid homage to the new doctor censor. At that moment, the court meeting suddenly exploded.

Chao Cuo became the doctor of imperial history, is this still worth it? ?

But Liu Chang didn't ask the opinions of the ministers at all, and even the ministers had no say in the selection of the Sangong. It was the emperor's exclusive power to worship the Sangong, and other people were not even qualified to comment on whether the Sangong was qualified, because the Sangong was Those who are responsible to them, they cannot comment on their immediate superiors, nor can they make decisions, only the emperor can decide.

Chao Cuo seemed to have been well-dressed. Under the witness of the officials, he put on the crown and robes, and formally consecrated him as Sangong.

All this happened so quickly, before all the officials could react, a brand new Sangong was released.

At this moment, Chao Cuo was standing beside Zhang Buyi and Zhang Cang, and turned his head to stare at the officials. His eyes were shining brightly, and his mouth was grinning, showing his white teeth. He looked a little scary.

"My lords, today Your Majesty worships me as the third lord. In the future, you must abide by your duties, assist me, and govern the world well. If there is someone who breaks the law, I will definitely not care about personal matters."

"only"

The ministers answered very weakly, their eyes were full of despair.

Liu Chang didn't interrupt Chao Cuo either, and allowed Chao Cuo to show off his majesty in the temple. Zhou Yi's incident completely angered the tyrant. Let me see if you still dare not accept the case, or if you dare to continue to procrastinate.

Sure enough, Chao Cuo opened his fangs in the next moment.

"Zhou Yi committed crimes, and his family should be punished, but His Majesty is merciful, pardoning the crime of punishing his family, and changing his sentence to abandoning the city! Zhou Kaifang, the Marquis of Fenyin, although he did not commit the crime of favoritism, he did not teach his son strictly, exempted him from his title, and relegated him to the status of a commoner! The county magistrate, county lieutenant and other local officials, a total of 45 people, all abandoned the city!"…

There was an uproar among the ministers, and there was a lot of discussion.

But Chao Cuo laughed, "Don't worry, everyone...Chang'an's cabinet officials do nothing, they don't accept grievances, and they protect the powerful. There are 21 officials, and they all abandoned the market!"

"Tingwei's Mansion delayed handling the case after accepting it, disregarding public sentiments, there were six officials involved in this matter, one abandoned the city, and the rest were dismissed from the ranks and relegated to Chengdan!
"Zhang Shizhi, the former head of Tingwei's Mansion, was ineffective in discipline and delayed his work. He took credit for it and sold it straight. He was fined [-] armor and served two years in corvee!"

"Xia Houying, the current head of Tingwei's Mansion, is not good at handling things. If he was in power at the beginning, he will cut off his food by a thousand!!"

"Lieutenant Lu Chan of the city gate, after registering that the people came to appeal, he did not send officials to escort him, and he did not report to the court lieutenant. He neglected his duty and gave him twenty lashes!!"

"Xu Kan, the guard of Tongguan, learned that the people made things difficult after they came to appeal, so
Unwilling to let go, asking for bribes, there are seven people involved in the case, all abandoned the market! ! "

"The former imperial historian, Jibu, was ineffective in his work, neglected his duties, and neglected government affairs. He was exempted from being the Marquis of Che, and he was fined [-] armors!"

"Yingchuan Inspector Taihou Dai Ye, the supervision is not good..."

As Chao Cuo spoke word by word, the officials' scalps suddenly became numb.

He kept talking like this, and more and more people were affected, from local officials, officials in charge of reception in Chang'an, officials along the road, county officials in the county seat, Jiuqing in the temple... all the officials began to be afraid , Will my name appear on it? Many officials are trembling with fear. This is not the same way as Ji Bu. If they say abandon the market, they will abandon the market. They have to be dragged out by this fellow to abandon the market!

Chao Cuo spoke very carefully, he did not let anyone involved in this case go unnoticed, and all personnel were dealt with severely, regardless of their identities and statuses.

"I want to issue an edict. From today, people from all over the country who have grievances can leave to Chang'an to file a complaint at any time. Officials from all over the country must go back and report to the people so that all the people know. If there are people who don't know where they can report, then The local officials must be dealt with. Once people want to come, they must be escorted along the road to ensure their basic necessities. Those who dare to stop them will abandon the market! Once they arrive in Chang'an, the local officials must immediately accept and investigate, refuse to accept and delay Those who abandon the market... Once there is a grievance under the command but cannot be heard by Datian, it should be dealt with in a row!!!”

The officials bowed their heads deeply, in this palace, they only felt that even breathing became difficult.

Liu Chang sat on the top seat, his face full of approval.

It's time to do this a long time ago, if I don't give you a strong medicine, how dare you underestimate me?
Liu Chang simply handed over the court meeting to Chao Cuo, while he left here directly. After walking a long way, he could hear Chao Cuo's angry roar.

"Your Majesty...you really worship him as the royal doctor..."

Lu Lu looked a little dazed and dull.

"What's wrong?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. He's been the Censor for less than an hour, and he has killed more than 100 officials...I'm afraid that if you let him hold the post for a year, you won't be able to find an official among the big men..."...

Liu Chang laughed when he heard this.

"If all the big men are incompetent officials who can only harm the people, then let them all disappear! I look for officials to govern the world, not to harm the world!"

Lu Lu was speechless immediately.

During these three hours, Chao Cuo announced his future standards, various laws and regulations, and killed more than 100 officials by the way. The efficiency is so high that it is rare in the world. It was probably the longest court meeting since the founding of the Han Dynasty. It took three hours to discuss the founding of the country. Some old officials couldn't sit still and fell down. Chao Cuo didn't care. He continued on his own. When he ordered the court meeting to end, even Zhang Cang couldn't get up.

The ministers staggered out of the palace, but they didn't dare to support each other.

Because they were afraid that if they got too close to each other, Chao Cuo would find a reason to deal with them.

Is he ruling the world?He is venting his anger. He is dealing with the minister for the sake of dealing with the minister. What should I do?

The faces of the officials were all bitter, but this time, they didn't even dare to complain.

It's hard to say whether complaining will be pulled out to abandon the market.

Surrounded by several subordinates, Chao Cuo walked out of the palace triumphantly, got into the carriage, and went to investigate the situation. He had guaranteed the emperor that it would take a year for the officials of the big man to govern. It has improved, but if you want to make a big punch, you must first clench your fists. There are thousands of officials in the Yushi Mansion who have obeyed and censored. You have to get rid of these people first, and get rid of those who don’t know how to fight. Those who work, those who are timid and cowardly, should all be driven out, and some who are as wise as themselves will be left behind, so that the world can be governed well.

"Brother!!!"

"

Brother! ! "

Liu Ci rushed into the inner room suddenly, but Liu An got up in a hurry, Chunyu Tiying at the side blushed even more, and hurriedly lowered his head, Liu An stared at Liu Ci angrily, and scolded: "Zizi! What are you arguing about?" Noisy?!"

"Huh? Elder sister is here too."

Liu An sighed, and asked impatiently, "What are you doing here?"

"Good news, brother, Zhang Shizhi is going to work as a corvee!"

"what??"

"Really, it's spread all over the palace. Zhang Shizhi offended Chao Cuo in the past. Now that Chao Cuo has become the third prince, the first order is to let Zhang Shizhi go to work in corvee. It is said that his house has been raided..."

Liu An was taken aback, and murmured, "Is Chao Cuo's revenge so obvious?"

"Brother, no matter how you look at it, you are not happy? That guy is staring at you all day, always dealing with us... It's good now, he's gone!!"

Liu Ci clapped his hands and cheered happily.

But Liu An sneered, "Zhang Shizhi is gone, but someone more ruthless has come. You fell into Chao Cuo's hands, but it's not the same as falling into Zhang Shizhi's hands..."

"But Chao Cuo won't just stare at us!"

"I hope so.

As Liu An spoke, he signaled Chunyu Tiying to leave, while he himself pulled Liu Ci, and said with a serious face: "Ci, now my father worships Chao Cuo as the third prince, and he will strictly control the officials and strengthen law and order. Be careful, don't mess around outside, Chao Cuo didn't gain power before, he was a very scary person, now he becomes Sangong, he will be even more vicious, if he catches him, then you will be finished , do you understand?"...

"Don't worry, brother, if I'm caught, just say you let me go!"

Liu An's face darkened, he picked up the thing, and walked out of the inner room. This is the Prince's Palace in the imperial palace. Liu An rarely comes here, only when he is dating Ti Ying, and he takes the little guy out After entering the door, he saw several attendants at the door, Liu An asked, "Where is my father? Houde Palace or Changle Palace?"

"Your Majesty is discussing important matters with Zhang Zuoxiang in Houde Hall."

Liu An nodded, and walked towards Houde Hall with the little guy in his arms.

But at this moment, in Houde Hall, Zhang Buyi was sincerely praising His Majesty's method of employing people. While praising, he also showed a little worry.

"Your Majesty, after Chao Cuo took office, he stopped hiding at all. In the past two days alone, more than [-] officials were arrested and dismissed by him, and more than [-] were beheaded... All the ministers dare not speak out, I am afraid that if he continues like this, he will die at the hands of the ministers sooner or later."

Zhang Buyi analyzed seriously. Although Zhang Buyi is a favorite, he is a very capable favorite.

He fully affirmed all Liu Chang's policies, but he was able to make timely suggestions for the emperor.

"I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that he will be assassinated... You can assign him a few more soldiers to protect his safety."

"Also, there are those county officials in the local area... They all feel that they have been wronged, so please write a letter, hoping to exempt them from punishment."

"Let them write a letter to Chao Cuo by themselves, I can't control it!"

"Anything else?"

Zhang Buyi pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "There is also the matter of Guanhou. I have already discussed with Guanhou. Three days later, Guanhou will set off for Changsha, and the selected doctors will follow him. Go, he has already compromised on the matter of the gold mine, and will not say anything to the public. Do we have to change the route in the future? To avoid such mistakes again? I can speak to the Shaofu and use the name of the Shaofu from now on. head to transport, but"

Zhang Buji is indeed Liu Chang's number one confidant. Things like gold mines, even Lu Lu didn't know about them, but Zhang Buji did. He was even the person in charge of these mines, from mining to transportation, to Zhang Bushi is responsible for the preservation and final use.

The two were plotting, and Liu An took his younger brother into the hall.

Zhang Buyi didn't say anything more, he directly bid farewell to His Majesty, and then left Houde Hall.

Zhang Buyi never left with the princes

Too close, deliberately keep a distance.

"Father...this is the second article you want."

Liu An took out the article from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Chang. Liu Chang took a serious look and was immediately overjoyed, "Not bad, not bad, inspired by me, your writing is very good."

"This is still the beginning, and I'm still thinking about what's to come. However, it's thanks to my father that I was able to write it. Without my father's guidance, I would definitely not be able to write with so much astronomy knowledge."

Liu Chang didn’t think so. As for Liu An’s writing, it was hard for him to look at it, let alone write it. He could only speak out the knowledge in his mind, but he had to write it in such detail before compiling the book. , then it’s a bit too embarrassing for myself. Fortunately, my son is still very good at this. The article written by Liu An this time includes a lot of content. This article is about astronomy. Liu Chang puts everything he knows Liu An was told everything about astronomy, but Liu An chose to believe it all. …

Under Liu An's pen, some basic but advanced astronomical knowledge came out for the first time, presumably this will soon cause a sensation and have a huge impact on many schools of thought.

"Although it is my inspiration, but your writing is also good. I have a banquet tonight, so remember to come early!"

"only!!!"

"Also, what are you doing with this stuff?"

"Oh, he came to look for me just now, so I brought him "Hurry up and take it away, before this stick steals my things, quickly throw it to your mother!!"

"only!!"

Liu An finally found what he was good at. Articles, his articles, are sometimes more useful than those huge policies, and can even change the world.

At the banquet in the evening, Liu Chang picked up his son's article and proudly showed it to all the family members. At this time, he was like an ordinary father, just proud of his son's achievements, although Liu Chang couldn't understand this article, but he thought it was well written, and he even had the feeling of reading the book of the sages. After reading it, Lu Hou made it clear that this article was already on fire, that is, Han Zi's article is almost like this. Liu An made a summary of astronomy, and at the same time mixed the essence of his own thoughts. He wrote astronomy science into astronomy philosophy...

Empress Lu could understand it and greatly appreciated it.

People like Cao Shu who don't quite understand are also very happy. Their son is really promising.

The queen mother sat in the top position, proudly explaining the content of the article to her daughters-in-law, and from time to time she would say a few words of her own thoughts, saying that they were all stunned, even the queen was different.

Several children were running around playing, refusing to sit down.

Liu Chang put his arms around Liu Ying's shoulders, talking happily to his brother.

There are all kinds of meat in front of them, and Liu Chang likes this feeling very much.

Looking at the smiles on everyone's faces, Liu Chang felt so comfortable and relaxed. At this moment, he could suddenly understand why his father was always enthusiastic and organized banquets.

Before his father passed away, he was extremely keen on organizing banquets, and would come here every two or three days.

Liu Chang couldn't understand it at the beginning, but at his current age, he understands everything.

When everyone was enjoying themselves, Liu Ying looked at Ti Ying and Liu An who were talking in a low voice, and couldn't help asking: "Is An also at the age for marriage? Didn't you say three years at the beginning? The three-year period is also Arrived…"

"When are you going to make Ann a family?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole banquet fell silent.

Ti Ying blushed, Cao Shu looked complicated, but Empress Lu smiled even more happily.

Liu An said solemnly: "Uncle, I still have a lot of things to do now, I don't really care about the relationship between men and women..."

Liu Ci popped up at some point, nodded, and said, "Yes, I can't let my eldest brother marry my sister-in-law...The eldest brother treats my sister-in-law very badly, always bullying her and humiliating her. If you get married, what's the deal?"

hear liu ci
Liu Ying smiled and pulled him over, "Your brother bullied your sister-in-law? No way, a gentle person like your brother...how could he bully his wife?"

"It's true!! I once saw my elder brother push my sister-in-law to the ground and pee on her!!"

"I usually beat Xia Houci in such a humiliating way, brother, this is too much! I heard that my father peed in someone's hat, but I never heard of him peeing on his ass! "

At that moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu An.

Liu An took a deep breath.

Little Keiko, I'm going to kill you! ! ! ! !
