I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 160

Tian Yannian, styled Zibin.

The meaning of the name is very good.

In the Han Dynasty, the names of scholars are easy to distinguish, and they all use some words with very good meanings.

For example, Yannian, Yanshou, Wuji, Wuyou, Anguo, Guanghan, Anshi... are some of the most common names.

There is such a joke circulating in Chang'an.

Standing on the Beique of Weiyang Palace, he yelled "Yannian" to Qi Li in the north. It is estimated that the people who ran out to answer could line up from Beique to Beicheng Guo.

Although this joke has some exaggerated elements, it is an indisputable fact that the name Yannian is spread among big men.

Not to mention those unknown people, even the famous Yannian can count a lot.

Li Yannian, Tian Yannian, Du Yannian... are all figures who once had great influence in Chang'an.

However, Tian Yannian has a good name, but he is not a good person.

It is said that Tian Yannian is a descendant of the Qi royal family during the Warring States period.

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Gao wanted to fight against the entangled forces of the old aristocrats in the Warring States Period in their hometown and prevent them from sprouting.

Therefore, the old nobles of the Kanto countries were forcibly relocated to the Guanzhong area, and they were divided and ruled.

Among them, Tian Yannian's family was included.

Tian Yannian can be regarded as a young talent because he received a good education since childhood.

Later, because of his ability and prudence, he was recruited by Huo Guang to the General's Mansion as his servant.

Tian Yannian lived up to Huo Guang's high expectations, and within a few years, he achieved the long history of the General's Mansion all the way.

Then there was Shangguan Jie's rebellion. Tian Yannian made great contributions and climbed several steps quickly.

In his early forties, he became the chief farmer who managed most of the Han Empire's food, taxes and taxes.

This is a fat job, not a saint, and there is no supervision mechanism, so it is difficult to avoid corruption.

People often say that if you take a trip to the Dasinong Temple, as long as you touch the desks there, and then wash your hands at home, you can wash off a large basin of oil and water.

So, as a chief minister, how could Tian Yannian not be greedy?

If Tian Buji of Changyi Kingdom is a petty greed, then Tian Yannian of Tian Buji's family is a big greed, a giant greed.

It may even be the biggest corrupt official since the Han Dynasty.

From the history books he had read in the past, Liu He had already grasped the evidence of Tian Yannian's greed for ink, and all the details, numbers, and witnesses were clearly recorded.

As long as Liu He is willing, he can send someone to drag Tian Yannian out of the court at any time.

However, it was not yet time for Liu He to hide Tian Yannian's card.

Save it until the most critical time, and then throw it out.

Set off a wave in the court, and use the waves to do something.

……

And Liu He's dislike for Tian Yannian did not only come from this.

What's more, in the original history, Tian Yannian played a very, very dishonorable role when he abolished King Changyi.

If Huo Guang is the general of the Chinese army, then Tian Yannian is the military adviser and minion.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he was the instigator: in that unprecedented action to abolish the emperor, Tian Yannian was the first to propose Huo Guang to abolish King Changyi.

In the court of Emperor Fei, most of the officials did not dare to agree with Huo Guang's proposal, so Huo Guang failed to achieve decisive results immediately.

At this critical juncture, Tian Yannian stepped forward again.

Tian Yannian, who was eager for meritorious service, drew out Huo Guang's sword from above the main hall, and directly threatened all officials and ministers—anyone who refused to obey, would be killed by the sword immediately.

Without Tian Yannian acting as a pawn and military adviser, the abolition of the emperor would not have been so easy.

Fortunately, Liu He has the ability to predict the future, otherwise, I am afraid that he would never see through this big farmer who is in charge of money and food, but he is still a master of swordsmanship and cruelty.

……

Of course, although Liu He has a bad feeling for Tian Yannian, since he has not decided to move him, he can only continue acting in front of him.

Liu He still greeted the big farmer with a smile on his face just like seeing other teachers.

"My servant Tian Yannian greets His Majesty." Tian Yannian asked with a salute.

"Tian Qing is from Qilu, and I am also from Qilu. If you count it, you and I still have half of the hometown friendship, so there is no need to be polite." Liu He said with a smile.

Tian Yannian was a little apprehensive, so he quickly bowed again.

After this vain ceremony, Tian Yannian finally sat in front of Liu He.

In Liu He's inherent impression, corrupt officials should always be full of food, so they must have a big belly.

But what Liu He didn't expect was that the big farmer in front of him was ugly, thin, dark-skinned, and his height could only reach his shoulders.

He looks like an outsider from Cochin.

It also reminded Liu He of Tian Cao Shi Wang He who often dealt with Changyi Guo.

After all, Wang He is much cuter than Tian Yannian.

Such a shriveled and thin person can actually come up with vicious methods to abolish the emperor, and he can openly threaten all officials with his weapons on the main hall, it is really unbelievable.

……

"Tian Qing, although you are half of my teacher today, I want to take you to see some things first. How about these things, I brought them from Changyi Kingdom?" Liu He said quite proudly.

"My minister would like to abide by the holy metaphor." Tian Yannian said rather humbly.

"Ok, ok, ok, let's go, I'll take you to see my baby!"

After Liu He finished speaking, he stood up and walked out excitedly. Tian Yannian hurriedly got up and went after him.

But because Tian Yannian is very short, his legs have to be shortened, and the way he chased him quickly was quite funny.

If he hadn't been wearing robes, a Confucian crown on his head, and a real two thousand stone ribbon around his waist, it would be easy for others to regard him as an old internal official.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Liu He brought Tian Yannian to a remote courtyard.

There are many such empty courtyards in Weiyang Palace.

One after another, abandoned for various reasons.

Overgrown with weeds and deserted.

Therefore, there is still a lot of room for the entire Weiyang Palace to use.

Liu He ordered people to clear out several such courtyards, either filled with sundries, or reserved for future use.

Standing outside the courtyard gate, Liu He said to Tian Yannian mysteriously: "Tian Qing, the treasures I brought are inside, you have to go in and see for yourself."

Let alone the emperor's treasure, Tian Yannian has to bite the bullet and go in even if he knows that there are three hundred knives and axes waiting for him inside.

"Your Majesty trusts me, and I am flattered."

"Okay, then Tian Qing will come in with me!"

After Liu He finished speaking, he graciously went over and pushed open the courtyard door, and walked in. Tian Yannian hurriedly followed.

The whole yard is not big, so Tian Yannian soon saw some wooden utensils placed under the porch.

Tian Yannian looked familiar, but couldn't tell what it was for a while.

Liu He deliberately did not speak, and let Tian Yannian find out by himself.

Tian Yannian is not a good person, but he is an operator after all, and he knows quite a lot about Nongsang, so he quickly understood.

The big guys made of wood under the corridor seem to be some new farm tools!

"Tian Qing, can you guess what these things are?"

Tian Yannian walked around these things a few times, touched and looked at them, and finally confirmed that these things were farm tools that he had never seen before.

"Your Majesty, these are farming tools?!"

"Tian Qing really has good eyesight, it's a farm tool."

"No, no, Your Majesty is absurd. I have been working as a farmer for nothing in the past few years. I have never seen these exquisite farm tools."

Tian Yannian made a voice of admiration while talking, and he really looked like a person who was quite interested in farming.

Liu He knew Tian Yannian's resume, he had been a prefect, a general but not a staff member, no matter what line of work he was in, he had done a very good job.

It's a pity that such a person can't be used by oneself, it has to be a pity.

"Huh? Does Tian Qing know how these agricultural tools are used?"

"It's useless for Weichen to use it now, but I have never eaten mutton, and I have seen sheep eat grass. Based on Weichen's past experience, I can guess that it is almost inseparable." Tian Yannian said to Liu He with a smile.

"Oh? Then I'd like to hear from Tian Qing, what are these farm tools used for?"

"Okay, let's try it, sir!"

Liu He smiled and nodded, expressing his approval, he had secretly made up his mind.

If Tian Yannian can figure out the use of these farm tools, then when the incident happens in the future, at least he won't be punished by his family, and he can be left with a whole body.

This is the greatest gift I have given him.

Of course, Tian Yannian couldn't see through the little Jiujiu in the emperor's heart. After watching it a few times, he said it quite proudly and happily.
