Since Chao Cuo knew each other so well, Liu Che naturally wanted to give something in return.

"The royal road!" Liu Che looked at Chao Cuo and ordered with satisfaction: "Give the Imperial Doctor a seat!" ”

"No!" Wang Dao bowed slightly, before today, he had already received Liu Che's instructions, and he was already well aware of all kinds of changes that might occur in the process of the court discussion and how to judge the instructions made by the Son of Heaven.

I saw Wang Dao whispering a few times to the Huangmen waiter beside him, and the other party immediately received the order to do it.

It should be pointed out that this Huangmen squire is not a eunuch.

In the early and middle Qin and Han dynasties, not all of the emperor's ministers were eunuchs.

In particular, Liu's Tianzi has always been well versed in the way of checks and balances, and never puts his eggs in one basket.

Therefore, around the emperor, there were close eunuchs who served, and there were also servants and lang officials from the scholars, nobles, and even folk tyrants who donated money to the imperial court and sent their heirs to the emperor for training.

Such checks and balances fully ensured that the emperor would not be deceived by the flattery of the eunuchs, nor would he fall into an embarrassing situation where no one was available.

And the full name of the Huangmen Shilang in the Han Dynasty is: Huangmen Shilang, which belongs to Shaofu Shangshutai.

Liu Xin at the end of the Western Han Dynasty once sighed: If you are young and have a yellow door waiter, you will have to deal with it!

This proves that even in times of peace, the Huangmen Shilang is also a fragrant bait, which is roughly equivalent to the training mechanism of future giants such as the secretary of the Communist Youth League in later generations.

And now, the Huangmen squire is not as noble as in the late Western Han Dynasty. However, it belongs to a 600-stone official under Shangshutai, but his power should not be underestimated.

According to the Han system, the Huangmen squire was in charge of the attendants (the Son of Heaven). In the middle of the matter, the traffic between China and the outside world, and the princes and dynasties were seen in the palace, and the king was seated.

Basically, it is the authority of the later generations of the Ministry of Rites, and the position of the Huangmen waiter has always been the forbidden of the scholar class in the Han Dynasty. Even the nobles are not allowed to interfere.

However, the subordinate officials below the Yellow Gate Servants, such as the Little Yellow Gate and the Yellow Gate Order, are mostly filled by eunuchs.

This also makes sense.

back then. Zhao Tong was in the same car with Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, and Yuan An, who accompanied him, felt that this was a shame and couldn't accept it, so he angrily stopped the car and complained. Zhao Tong, the great eunuch who had been in power for a while, quickly collapsed.

How could the scholar class allow to be at the mercy of the so-called 'sword and saw remnants' on such a strict occasion as the Great Dynasty?

Even the later Taishi Gong felt that becoming a eunuch was really the biggest tragedy in the world, and he didn't even feel inferior when talking to others.

I saw that the Huangmen squire came down in person, with two eunuchs, carrying a table and a futon, came to Chao Cuo, bowed down and said: "Doctor Yushi, please move with the lower officials!" ”

Then, under the gaze of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. According to the instructions he had received a long time ago, this Huangmen squire arranged Chao's wrong seat to a place on the right side of Prime Minister Zhou Yafu.

It wasn't a big deal!

The Imperial Historian of the Han Dynasty has always been in that position, but. Next, the actions of this Huangmen squire made the Manchu Dynasty civil and military unable to take their eyes off - I saw that after this Huangmen squire asked Chao to sit down, he took a small pair of scissors from the hand of a eunuch behind him, and then squatted down and measured it carefully. Quickly used scissors to cut the futon next to Chao Cuo and the place between the desk and the place where the prime minister and the patriarch were seated, leaving a blank area of about five inches between the two.

And that's not all. This Huangmen squire also cut a hole in the futon behind Chao Cuo, until Chao Cuo's own seat no longer had any connection with the seat between any officials and ministers, he let go and respectfully led the eunuchs to the side.

Nothing will be a small thing when it comes to politics!

Even if the emperor just sneezes, for the ministers, it is important information worth pondering, breaking it apart and crushing, and discussing it one detail at a time.

What's more, on an occasion like the Great Dynasty Ceremony, the arrangement of the seat of the sub-prime minister who is the imperial historian?

Countless people stared at Chao Cuo with burning eyes, hoping to read some information from it.

But Liu Che didn't want to guess riddles with them, the most taboo thing about politics was that the people below were making up their brains!

Therefore, he didn't give the courtiers much time to think about it, so he stood up and said: "Doctor Yushi, as a sub-prime minister, commander of the imperial history, supervising the impeachment of hundreds of officials, before I succeeded to the unification, I once toured Hedong, and saw that the government of the officials collapsed, and the people's livelihood was hard, and there were people who were hungry and poor, and the officials did not dare to report the disaster in the county and county!" ”

Liu Che said sadly: "The trip to Hedong, what I saw and heard, I still dare not or forget, always remember in my heart!" ”

Liu Che didn't mind pulling Zhou Yang out of this unlucky bastard again.

But that's all there is to it.

Liu Che does not have the ability and prestige of Ming Taizu and Celestial Ancestor now, and he can hang the bureaucrats of the world and smoke them casually.

Therefore, Liu Che immediately turned in and said: "Of course, I also know that the matter of Hedong is an isolated case, and most of the officials in the world are still diligent and loyal ministers......"

Listening to Liu Che's words, many people immediately felt a hot pain on their faces.

Especially Dou Guangguo, the Dou family had a talent last year!

But fortunately, everyone's skin is very thick, and this little blow can't hurt them.

It's just that the Son of Heaven has said everything about this, and the big guy has to express it.

So, the ministers kowtowed together and said: "The governance of the Hedong officials has collapsed, affecting Li Shu, and this is the crime of the ministers......"

Chao Cuo even took off his hat and apologized: "As a doctor of imperial history, the minister is responsible for inspecting the counties and countries of the world, and the matter of Hedong is the fault of the minister, please punish your majesty xià ......"

Punish a fart!

Many shouted in their hearts.

In particular, many of the princes only felt in their hearts that there were 100,000 grass and mud horses whistling by.

Who doesn't know that when the Hedong incident happened, Chao Cuo was only an internal history, and the imperial historian at that time was Kaifeng Hou Taoqing.

And Tao Qing turned his back on Chao Cuo and almost killed Chao Cuo, this matter is clear in everyone's hearts.

At this moment, Chao Cuo jumped out and took on the responsibility that he shouldn't have shouldered. is to step on Tao Qing's dead ghost's grave 10,000 feet, and he will pee when he is about to die!

Tao Qing is dead, and it's gone. He couldn't roll in the grave anyway.

But......

The princes are still alive!

The big guys still think that one day they can directly serve as Jiuqing and even the imperial historian and prime minister.

Chao Cuo jumped out like this, which is tantamount to a vague declaration of the world, especially hinting at the Son of Heaven: The princes are unreliable, or the courtiers born of scholars are reliable, Your Majesty, you see, the ministers are even 'brave to bear' the responsibilities that do not belong to the ministers, what about those princes?

Although the Son of Heaven may not necessarily think of this verse. But, there's always this possibly not?

Moreover. There are so many smart people around the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven 'can't think of it' for a while, but one day he will 'think of it'.

In the history of the Han dynasty for more than 50 years, the liehou class and the scholar class have both cooperated and struggled. It is both a compromise and a mutual tear.

In the past 20 years, as the world has been peaceful for a long time, the scholar class has become more powerful and has mastered the right to speak, and has been pressing towards the power of the princely class step by step.

There was Zhang Shizhi in the past, and Chao Cuo and Zhidu in the back, all of whom had bitten off a lot of flesh and blood on the princes, and even bit some of the princes to death and the country was destroyed.

The rabbit died and the fox was sad, and the princes were naturally very wary of the ambitions of the scholar class.

It's just that. If it is wrong, no one can find fault and it is impossible to oppose it.

However. Many people secretly made a mistake in their hearts in the small notebook.

Now, everyone can't help but mistake this imperial historian who is in charge of the power of the prime minister and has the power to impeach the officials of the world.

But people stumble, horses stumble, and no one in this world will have smooth sailing, especially in politics, today's victor may be tomorrow's prisoner.

Many people say in their hearts: "Chao wrong, Chao wrong." Don't be complacent, someday. This monarch will make you look good! ”

can still be ranked among the princes of the court, maybe other abilities are not good, but the ability to fall into the well is stronger than the other.

Liu Che didn't know that Chao Cuo's big mouth suddenly pulled up hatred again, and he said to the ministers: "Zhou Yang is a thief, it is me and the first emperor, and I have been deceived by a few people, and Zhuqing doesn't need to worry about it!" ”

What else could it be?

It was the first emperor who appointed Zhou Yangyou to be the county guard of Hedong!

If you really want to investigate, the first emperor's face is not good-looking!

"However, the matter of Zhou Yang's thief made me understand that the weight of the rule of officials is heavier than Mount Tai!" Liu Che said with his hand: "And if you want to prevent a cunning thief like a thief like Zhou Yang from harming Li Shu and causing trouble to the place, I think that strengthening the rule of officials is the best way, and the good or bad governance of officials depends on the work of the Yamen of the Imperial Historian and the Yamen of the Imperial Captain, in order to inform the world, I and the thieves like the thieves of Zhou Yang swear not to stand together, and I will decide that from now on, the Imperial Doctor and the Imperial Captain, the upper court will discuss politics, and they will all sit at the table. No more place! ”

The ministers sighed in their hearts.

I probably know that this is one of the new policies after today's son ascends the throne.

A new heaven and a new atmosphere!

Cracking down on corrupt officials and killing corrupt officials are all things that everyone likes to see, and they are also things that everyone in the world likes.

As for the ministers of the DPRK and China, they did not have much feeling about this.

The left and right are just a round of trends, at most targeted anti-corruption, if you really want to be more serious, to investigate the dirty things in the local area, then I am afraid that the Son of Heaven himself will not be able to stand it!

But no one thought that Liu Che was serious this time.

In last year's examination, Guanzhong barely digested it.

However, this year's, next year's, and where to place the officials who have been selected in the future examination has become a big problem.

The position of this officialdom is a turnip and a pit, especially the local officials, such as the pavilion chief, the widower and the grassroots officials in the counties, have always been controlled by the henchmen of the local officials.

Where is there any place for the examiners?

However, the scale of the examination will continue to grow in the foreseeable future.

This made Liu Che have to think of a way to make room for the future scholars.

Targeted anti-corruption is a good choice, and it is worth sticking to it for a long time. (To be continued) R466
