I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 123 Suspending the Family Governance·Worshiping the High Temple·Early Establishing the Empress (for further reading)
Huo Guang came to Liu He today not only for Huo Chengjun's marriage, but also for other matters.

Even if Huo Chengjun wants to be made queen, he can't say it.

He could only make a slight start, and then let other officials in charge of the matter bring it up, otherwise it would be too ugly.

No matter how powerful Huo Guang is, he is still a courtier, and there are some rules that cannot be tampered with.

And among the few things I want to talk about today, the most important thing is the matter of the emperor's personal administration-in the court meeting a few days ago, the emperor just didn't let himself go into office, and didn't talk about the matter of his personal administration.

Now that the emperor mentioned "Zhongfu assists the government", Huo Guang decided to follow the emperor's words.

"Your Majesty is now nineteen years old, and the coronation ceremony will be held next year. By then, His Majesty will be able to govern in person. Naturally, you can no longer spend time on these trivial matters."

Hearing this, Liu He's heart tightened. He didn't expect that the cautious Huo Guang would test himself again and again.

"Why did Father Zhong say this? Could it be that I did something wrong that hurt Father Zhong's heart, so that Father Zhong wanted to abandon me twice in a row? That day at the Great Court Conference Make it very clear that Father Zhong is not allowed to leave the court." Liu He said anxiously.

"Your Majesty is serious. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven of the great man. After being crowned, he will naturally be in charge of the government."

"Then why did Emperor Xiaozhao fail to take charge after being crowned?"

Liu He spoke without changing his face, and his eyes were full of innocence, but this "unintentional words" made Huo Guang feel a twinge of pain and guilt in his heart.

Yes, why didn't I let Emperor Xiaozhao take charge?
More than a year ago, Emperor Xiaozhao performed the coronation ceremony, and he had indeed proposed to return the power to Emperor Xiaozhao.

Emperor Xiaozhao refused on the grounds that he was weak and sick. After that, he never mentioned returning to the emperor.

For this reason, in the corner under the court, there are always some people who say that Huo Guang is greedy for power.

But what can Huo Guang do? Emperor Xiaozhao is indeed weak and sick, and there are many political affairs in the court, so he can't let go.

"At that time, Emperor Xiaozhao was weak and sick, so he couldn't take care of political affairs, otherwise the veteran would have returned to his hometown to take care of his old age."

"Your Majesty's holy body is intact, and after being crowned next year, he will naturally be able to take charge of the government."

Huo Guang spoke frankly, without any guilt on his face.

"Father Zhong made a mistake about one thing. I am only sixteen this year, and there are still four years before I can be crowned as a pro-government."

There was a smug look on Liu He's face, and Huo Guang immediately understood the reason.

"Changing the age is just to make life passable in name. Being in power is a big deal, how can it be taken seriously?" Huo Guang said.

"But this has already been written on the genealogy, how can it not be taken seriously?" Liu He asked back, "What's more, I have never been in touch with the government, and I can't even recognize the three princes and nine ministers. If I let me govern, wouldn't that be true?" Do you want to embarrass me?"

"Veteran can assist from the side, but the important matters should be handled by His Majesty." Huo Guang took a step forward.

"Father Zhong doesn't need to persuade you anymore. In the past four years, don't mention the matter of pro-government. I still want to spend a few more years of leisure, read more scriptures, and learn more from the ancients. All matters related to this matter are still decided by Zhongfu, so it is up to Zhongfu."

"If Father Zhong really wants me to be in charge as soon as possible, it is better to let me start by reading the memorials of the officials in the past few years, which is safer."

Liu He didn't give Huo Guang another chance to refuse, so he stood up and bowed down.

Huo Guang didn't really want to repay the government, so he felt relieved for a while, but he immediately stood up, bowed down and solemnly returned the salute.

During this one-off, the big man's power framework for the next few years was settled—at least on the surface.

When Huo Guang got up again and sat down on the couch, he was even more satisfied with the emperor in front of him.

He is in better health than the Daxing Emperor, more playful than the Daxing Emperor, and respects himself as much as the Daxing Emperor.

It seems that I really did not choose the wrong person.

After pondering for a while, Huo Guang decided to let the emperor worship Gaomiao.

"Your Majesty, although the enthronement ceremony is over, there is one more thing that cannot be delayed."

"What's the matter?" Liu He vaguely guessed.

"Worship the high temple."

If this was the case, Liu He suddenly discovered that it is not particularly difficult to deal with Huo Guang.

Huo Guang was indeed domineering, but he was not unreasonable.

As long as it doesn't touch his core interests, then Huo Guang is willing to reciprocate.

Huo Guang had to feel safe. If he felt safe, he was also safe.

"Worshiping the Gaomiao? The Gaomiao is located in Chang'an City, why did Father Zhong mention this on purpose?" Liu He asked knowingly.

Huo Guang said with a rare and kind smile: "After the emperors of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, they all went to the Gaomiao to worship the Emperor Taizu and sue themselves for inheriting the ancestral temple. Recognized, it is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the emperor of the ancestral temple."

Liu He pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and his heart was full of ecstasy. In this way, even if Huo Guang wanted to destroy himself again, he had to carefully weigh his own weight.

"It's all up to my father's arrangement."

"After discussing with Taichang and Shaofu, the old minister will report this matter to His Majesty, and it should be this month."

Liu He nodded, pretending not to care.

"Father Zhong, when it comes to this ancestral temple, I still have one thing I don't know."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"Why is Emperor Gao's temple name Taizu, Emperor Xiaowen's temple name Taizong, but Emperor Xiaohui, Emperor Xiaojing and Emperor Xiaowu don't have temple names?"

As soon as Liu He's words came out, Huo Guang's gentle expression just now disappeared, and turned into a dignified expression.

"Your Majesty does not know that the emperors of all generations of the Han Dynasty have established temples, but not every emperor of Daxing can obtain the temple name. Only those who have made great contributions to the country and society can be honored."

"I see." Liu He said thoughtfully.

Although he didn't ask any more questions, Liu He had already thought about what to do next. There was something to be done about chasing the temple name - it was beneficial to himself and Huo Guang.

At this time, half of the tea has been drunk, and Huo Guang has finished talking about the two most important things. Huo Guang is very satisfied with the results of these two things.

Then, only the "lifetime event" of his little daughter Huo Chengjun is left.

After drinking another cup of tea, Huo Guang finally figured out how to speak.

"Your Majesty, you can take a break with regards to being in charge, but there is another matter that His Majesty needs to consider."

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"The reconciliation of yin and yang, and the continuous succession of offspring are actually major events related to the relationship between heaven, earth and human beings. The reason why Emperor Xiaozhao suddenly collapsed and the court was unstable is that there were no heirs left." After beating around the bush, Huo Guang finally got to the point, "Your Majesty should The concubine has been elected."

Liu He was taken aback for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, the drama of the harem came so soon?
When the emperor has a public heart and a selfish heart, the public heart is to change the way of life of the big man and the people of the big man, and the selfish heart is of course to enrich the harem.

If you work hard, just enjoy and enjoy.

Just when Liu He was dreaming, he saw Huo Guang's deep eyes, and it was as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

All fantasies disappeared in an instant—I was just a puppet emperor, and every step was dangerous.

Emperor Xiaozhao can't decide who he wants to favor, let alone who he wants to make queen.

I'm afraid, only Huo Guang's youngest daughter, Huo Chengjun, can be established.

Liu He suddenly remembered a story. The male mantis and the female mantis got married overnight. On the second day, the male mantis was eaten. On the third day, the female mantis gave birth to a baby mantis.

There is a knife on Sezi's head, and Liu He's head is not only a knife, it is simply a dragon's head.
