Chapter 89 Change the rules

 Han Zuo——

In his previous life, Liu Chan had watched movies, TV shows, and various literary works. Almost most of them felt that during the Three Kingdoms era, people all respected the Han Dynasty.

Liu Chan was still a little strange at that time.

Since people recognize the big man so much.

Why did the Prime Minister encounter such strong resistance during the Northern Expedition, instead of what the Prime Minister said to the late emperor when he met in Longzhong: "The general led the people of Yizhou out of Qinchuan, and the people dared not to eat the pulp from the pot."

, to welcome the general?"

If it were true that the Prime Minister left Qishan six times, wouldn't he have already conquered Guanzhong?

With the Guo Huai family members exchanged for Cao Zhen this time, Liu Chan felt that even in the Three Kingdoms, people were more willing to rely on the stronger side, and who cares about Han Zuo.

If you want the people of the world to be able to enjoy the meal, you must first be strong enough.

Therefore, Guo's mother and others were exchanged back to Chang'an. She did not immediately recognize that her son's surrender to the Han Dynasty was a matter of abandoning the secret and turning to the light.

But now that things have come to this, they have no choice but to do so.

Unexpectedly, Queen Zhang Yuan of the Han Dynasty sent a set of tables and chairs, which moved Guo's mother and expressed that the Guo family would be loyal to the Han Dynasty from now on.

Of course——

Liu Chan also knew that what really moved Mother Guo was not this set of tables and chairs, but the identity of Queen Zhang Yuan. Once the mother of the country stooped down to visit the family of a surrendered general, she did so without any pretense.

In the following days, Liu Chan asked carpenters to quickly make a lot of tables, chairs and benches.

Two months later.

Chengdu Imperial Palace.

Xinghan Palace——

The Han courtiers, who had not held a court meeting for a long time, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

But what makes them even more uncomfortable is that all the seats originally prepared for courtiers in Xinghan Palace are gone today.

Above the main hall, except for a few huge screens and a step nearly two meters high, the rest of the place is empty.

In the past, when ministers entered Xinghan Palace, they could easily find their seats and then wait for the emperor's arrival. But today, when they entered Xinghan Palace, their seats were gone.

Oh, no.

There is one more spot.

On the two-meter-high steps, there is a chair carved with dragons.

It’s just that no minister dared to go up to that step.

Let alone sit on that chair.

Just as the ministers were suspicious, a loud shout suddenly sounded outside the palace.

"Your Majesty is here!"

Immediately afterwards, everyone turned around after hearing the sound and saw Liu Chan, wearing a dragon robe, walking calmly and calmly from outside.

Liu Chan glanced at the courtiers lined up on both sides, feeling secretly happy.

Naturally, he could see all kinds of question marks written on the faces of these ministers.

However, he turned a blind eye and walked straight to the steps. He took a look at the dragon chair that had just been completed yesterday and was very satisfied.

It took the carpenters a month to make this based on the memory of his previous life.

This dragon chair is made of ordinary wood, but the armrests and back of the chair are engraved with various dragon-shaped patterns.

Of course, this is not as exquisite as the dragon chairs of later generations.

Liu Chan slowly walked towards the dragon chair, then gently stroked the dragon head armrest, then turned around and sat on it.

"Bye!"

As soon as Liu Chan sat down, Fu'an immediately shouted loudly, which shocked the ministers for a moment before paying homage to Liu Chan.

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

"My lords, my whole life!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

In the past, when talking to the emperor, they could kneel or stand, but today they were standing neatly in the main hall, and they were still a little uncomfortable.

"Everyone loves you!" Liu Chan suddenly said: "I know that you may be a little uncomfortable with it, right?"

The ministers did not respond after hearing this. Although the emperor in front of them never governed the country, no one dared to despise him.

After all, even the current actual leader of the Han Dynasty, the then Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, respected Liu Chan very much in the court in the past.

In terms of etiquette, Prime Minister Zhuge still set a good example, so that they would never dare to look down on the emperor Liu Chan.

The ministers did not speak, but Liu Chan smiled and said: "Get used to it, you will get used to it soon." After that, Liu Chan added: "From now on, all court meetings will be like this."

Khan——

When Liu Chan said this, all the ministers were shocked.

Shi Zhangyi, the head of the Prime Minister's Office, was just about to step out and speak, but Liu Chan said again: "I have summoned all the ministers here today. Actually, there is nothing important." After saying that, he glanced at the eunuch Fu'an, who immediately understood, and immediately snapped,

Snap, snap three times in a row.

After three rounds of applause, before the ministers could react, they saw eunuchs and maidens coming in from both sides of the hall.

It's just that these palace maids and eunuchs were all in groups of two, each carrying a chair and entering the main hall from the side doors on both sides.

Soon, the main hall was filled with wooden chairs.

"My lords!" Liu Chan raised his hand: "Please sit down, please!"

The chairs were arranged neatly, but the ministers felt a little strange when they looked at them. However, since the emperor had already let them sit, everyone thanked them, found a chair one by one, and sat down.

After all the civil and military ministers were seated, Liu Chan suddenly asked curiously: "How do you feel, sir?"

Xinghan Palace is a palace exclusively used for court meetings. The spatial layout is much larger than that of other palaces. In the past, there were two rows of seats arranged vertically, so they could hear the emperor clearly.

But today, after I put the chair away, it felt like that was not the case.

However, all the ministers can also feel that sitting on this chair is indeed much more comfortable and comfortable than sitting on their knees before. If they are allowed to sit like this for several hours, they will not feel tired.

But——

Although this chair is nice, it doesn't look like a court meeting at all.

Attendant Dong Yun was about to speak, but found that he was a little far away from the emperor, so he had to get up and walk to the middle seat again, saluted Liu Chan and said: "Your Majesty! Although this chair is good, it is inappropriate for the court to be so messy.

The imperial court is majestic."

Well——

Liu Chan smiled secretly when he heard this, this is what I was waiting for.

"Weichen thinks," Dong Yun added, "it would be more appropriate to set up seats as before."

As soon as Dong Yun finished speaking, several ministers also agreed, saying that it would be better to return to the way before and set up positions for each minister.

Liu Chan immediately frowned, thinking that if we were to return to the past, why would I bother today? I just want to change the rules of the past.

"If you want to show the majesty of the imperial court," Liu Chan said, he ordered the maids and eunuchs on both sides: "Then remove all the chairs."

"No!"

After the palace maids and eunuchs agreed, they walked towards the ministers who were sitting on the chairs. Although these ministers were a little helpless, they had no choice but to get up from their seats and then watched helplessly as the chairs were moved away.

However, the chairs were moved, but Liu Chan did not order anyone to reset their original seats.

"Since the ministers feel that sitting on chairs loses the dignity of the imperial court," Liu Chan said with a smile, "whenever the court meetings are held in the future, please help all your beloved ministers to stand."

"Your Majesty!" Jiang Wan, who joined the army in the prime minister's palace, came out and said: "Your Majesty, no!"

"Oh?" Liu Chan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "Does it mean that I love you and think that all the ministers should be equal to me?"

Hiss——
