Chapter 126 Han Wu Era (End)

another year later
Shanglin Court

During this year, the anti-prince conspiracy group headed by Su Wen, Jiang Chong, Li Guangli, and Liu Qumao was smashed, and Dahan really ushered in the order of chaos.

The related witches and warlocks were all killed, but the emperor Liu Che was still not in the mood to deal with the affairs of state. He was still immersed in the guilt of being forced to commit suicide by the queen and the prince. He watched those young officers hunting in Shanglin Garden every day, recalling When I was young, I was full of vigor, but as for the government affairs, they were all handled by Sang Hongyang and Huo Guang.

"it is good!"

"Ziqing, you are amazing!"

A teenage officer shot a wild boar, and other Han officers around him praised him.

Looking at the young officer, Liu Che seemed to have seen Huo Qubing and Wei Qing back then, so he smiled rarely and said to Huo Guang behind him, "Call that kid here."

"No." Huo Guang agreed, and then stepped forward to call the young officer over.

After a while, the young military officer came over with a smile on his face. When he saw Emperor Liu Che, the young military officer quickly held back his smile and said solemnly and respectfully: "Chen, Wang Hongnian, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

"Wang Hongnian, um, your riding and shooting are good." Emperor Liu Che said this, but what he thought of was the heroic posture of the arms of the empire.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your appreciation!" Wang Hongnian said humbly.

"What background?" Emperor Liu Che asked casually.

"Liaodong Tashi County." Wang Hongnian answered truthfully.

"Liaodong Dashi?" The emperor felt that this place name seemed a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it, because it had been too long since he had been in touch with state affairs. As for matters related to Liaodong, he hadn't paid attention to it for more than ten years.

"Your Majesty, the current Liaodong prefect and the original anti-Hungarian hero Wang Changzhi, he is from Dashi County in Liaodong." Huo Guang reminded.

"Huh?" Emperor Liu Che thought about it carefully, and then gradually remembered that Wang Changzhi was not as good as Wei Qinghuo Qubing, but he was still as famous as Li Guang, so he smiled at Wang Hongnian in front of him: "Then you and Liaodong Governor Wang What's the relationship with Changzhi?"

"It's the minister's father." Wang Hongnian replied truthfully.

"Oh." After knowing the situation, the emperor laughed again: "At the beginning, your father was also a famous general, but unfortunately he wanted to resign and return to his hometown, but I kicked him to Liaodong as the prefect."

For such words, Wang Hongnian dared not answer, but kept his head down silently and dared not speak.

At this moment, the emperor had decided in his heart to stop the militarism and turn to rest and recuperate, so he was not as interested in famous generals as before, so he said to Wang Hongnian in front of him: "You are not bad, boy, I plan to let you become an official in the inner court, how about it?" ?”

"Your Majesty..." Wang Hongnian was a little confused. Why did the emperor suddenly want to bring him into the inner court? Didn't his father say that the emperor likes generals who fight?That's why he put Wang Hongnian in the barracks to make military achievements, so that the royal family of Liaodong continued to be famous.

As for the inner court, it was the court system created by Emperor Liu Che after he ascended the throne.

At that time, the imperial court was controlled by two empress dowagers, and the court outside the court was controlled by foreign relatives and military nobles, so he established the inspection system, promoted local tyrants to the imperial court, and let those local tyrants To balance the power of those princes and princes in the court.

It's just that I didn't expect that those powerful and powerful children who were promoted, although they did help him, the emperor, balance the power of the princes and princes, they have also rapidly become gentry in the past few decades and are gradually becoming new princes and princes.

At the same time, in order to balance the power of the queen mothers of the two palaces, he married Wei Zifu who was born as a commoner, and used new relatives to check and balance Princess Guantao and others. The final result was that Princess Guantao was indeed overthrown, but Wei's relatives also rose rapidly, and many officials became Wei's henchmen.

Fortunately, the Wei family itself has no ambitions. The core members of the Wei family's relatives, Wei Qinghuo Qubing and Wei Zifu, are all loyal to the big man, so everything is under control. It's just that the emperor was worried that Wei's henchmen had ambitions and forced Wei to A Tian family came to replace Qi, so Wei Zifu was deliberately left out to weaken Wei's power a little.

Moreover, the emperor also established an inner court, which dealt with major national affairs, and directly skipped those lords and princes in the court hall. Naturally, this was successful, but gradually, the inner court became a new outer court, So he had to reuse Su Wen and others.

Because I can't control the court, in order to skip the outer court, I set up an inner court on top of the court, and directly administer the inner court, and the core of the inner court is the Shangshutai. In addition, personal officials such as Zhongchangshi were set up in the inner court to carry out personal office work.

If the Zhongchang Shi can't control it in the future, it may be necessary to set up a more personal and tighter system on top of the Zhongchang Shi.

No matter what kind of system is established, it is essentially to solve the problem that those in power cannot really firmly control power at present. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to establish corresponding institutional systems or forces, such as the inner court, the inner court, foreign relatives, eunuchs, etc. .

It was under such a background that the permanent servants of the Inner Court were born. In fact, they were the secretaries of Emperor Liu Che. Although the salary and official position were very low, their actual power was very high.

Therefore, Wang Hongnian was very surprised that the emperor asked him to go to such a position, but he didn't dare to ask, let alone refuse, and he was embarrassed to agree directly.

"I know you're embarrassed to speak, so how about you become a servant of the Huangmen under the Zhongchang servant." The emperor laughed.

Panicked, Wang Hongnian knelt on the ground and wept tremblingly: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with me, why do you want to mutilate your male body?"

"Eh..." The emperor knew that Wang Hongnian might be entering the officialdom for the first time, so he didn't know much about the official position in the officialdom, so he happily explained to Wang Hongnian: "Although most of the people in the official system of Zhongchang eunuchs are disabled, they are not All eunuchs have incomplete bodies, and the servant of the Huangmen doesn't need to injure your male body."

Huo Guang on the side also explained to Wang Hongnian.

It was only at this time that Wang Hongnian breathed a sigh of relief. Although he also knew that not all eunuchs were crippled, he did not know which eunuch positions did not require crippled men. I have carefully understood the officer system of the Han Dynasty, but I have not understood the eunuch system of the Han Dynasty.

Although the servant of Huangmen doesn't need to mutilate his male body, it is the eunuch system after all. Even if he doesn't need to be mutilated, his reputation will not be very good. Therefore, Wang Hongnian still hesitates, but looking at the emperor's smiling face, he also agrees. He didn't dare to refuse, so he had no choice but to reply: "Chen, thank you Your Majesty!"

"Okay, haha!"

The emperor was very happy that such a handsome and handsome young officer became his Huangmen servant and his personal person.

Just when Wang Hongnian, a junior officer, was promoted to be the servant of Huangmen, Sang Hongyang brought Shangguan Jie to Shanglinyuan.

"Your Majesty, I discussed with Shangguan Jie and believed that we should continue to increase the scale of farmland and garrisons in the Luntai Kingdom of the Western Regions. If we give us another ten years, we will be able to completely expel the Huns from the Western Regions and turn the entire 57 countries of the Western Regions Become a vassal of my big man."

Sang Hongyang came here eloquently, and he spoke very excitedly.

However, Emperor Liu Che was uncharacteristically not interested in the war anymore, and just said indifferently to Sang Hongyang: "We won't fight the Western Regions anymore, the big men can't fight anymore."

"Your Majesty?" Sang Hongyang thought he heard it wrong. The emperor, who has always been belligerent, stopped fighting in the Western Regions?How can this be?

"The people don't have enough to eat and rebel every day. The big man can't stand such a toss." Emperor Liu Che seemed to really wake up.

Sang Hongyang didn't know what to say, so he could only stand there in embarrassment.

"I told you to remember, I want to issue an edict, and this edict is called..." At this time, the emperor Liu Che looked at Sang Hongyang who persuaded him to increase his troops in Luntai, and then said to Huo Guang beside him: "It's called..." Luntai edict."

"promise."

Huo Guang was very surprised, and then the emperor said a word, and he remembered it.

Every time the emperor uttered a word, the shock of Huo Guang, Wang Hongnian, Sang Hongyang, and Shangguan Jie on the side increased.

The emperor wants to... rest and recuperate? !
Dahan, the sky is about to change again! ! !
