Chapter 63 The second half of the thirteenth year of Kaibao
The death of Concubine Shu was considered a big event in Bian Palace. This was determined by Emperor Liu's attitude. For this reason, Emperor Liu also held a grand funeral ceremony for her and gave her a funeral ceremony.
honor.
Emperor Liu's mausoleum, after two years of construction, has been completed and sealed. The site was selected by the Qintian Supervisor in an inaccessible place deep in the Mang Mountain. It was jointly constructed by the Shaofu and the Ministry of Industry, and was built in secret. Even the name was chosen.
Now, it’s called Gaoling.
Although Emperor Liu was not extravagant in building his own mausoleum, he was not too stingy either. He still carried out large-scale construction projects. However, he did not use the state's financial resources and manpower. All expenses came from his small treasury. In this way, there was no
No one dared to gossip. But Emperor Liu only gave one instruction for the mausoleum: it should be hidden, safe, permanent and secure.
Life does not have a beginning and an end, but after death, the relationship will be renewed. Letting Concubine Shu accompany the mausoleum can be regarded as a kind of sustenance.
Emperor Liu was still a little sad about Concubine Shu's death, but this sadness did not last long before he recovered. In comparison, the brothers Liu Hui and Liu Xuan were more affected. After all, they will be in the future.
It can be regarded as "alone and helpless".
In order to express his memory for Concubine Shu, Emperor Liu not only showed kindness to the Zhou clan members represented by Zhou Fang, but also showed more care to the Liu Hui brothers and sisters.
For Liu Hui, Emperor Liu gave him the title of Minister of Rites, allowing him to officially break away from the hardships of military training and start to participate in court affairs. On weekdays, he was given food and clothing, as long as he could think of it, and he was also ordered to go to the Duke of Wu's house.
Send a copy.
Emperor Liu also called the fifth princess Liu Xuan from time to time to care about her, and personally discussed her marriage after she became an adult. He was determined to find a good match for her and agreed to listen to her own opinions.
Such treatment was previously enjoyed only by the eldest princess Liu Jia.
Of course, many people can see that Emperor Liu's care is just to place his guilt for Concubine Shu on the two brothers. And this lingering blessing cannot last long, but even so, this
This favor also made people in the palace envious and people outside the palace talked about it.
In fact, the meticulous care for the Liu Hui brothers and sisters did not last long. After the winter moon of the 13th year of Kaibao, there was no follow-up. Emperor Liu returned to his previous state, living the day and drinking the wine.
, everything was the same as before, as if not much had changed, and Concubine Shu was gradually forgotten, starting from Emperor Liu's relief.
In the second half of the 13th year of Kaibao, the most important event of the imperial court was the formal promotion of the reform of the military system. Using the Tokyo Forbidden Army as a pilot, nearly 5,000 retired officers and soldiers were abolished to accumulate experience for larger-scale reforms and changes.
Discover summary issues.
In contrast, the situation in the court became calmer, mainly because the conflicts between Yu Zhao and Lu had been temporarily alleviated.
The internal struggle in the imperial court caused by the Yangzhou case subsided under the intervention of Emperor Liu, and ended briefly with Lu Duoxun's retreat.
Emperor Liu's strong beating was still very effective. Lu Duoxun felt much more at ease. At least in the second half of the thirteenth year of Kaibao, Emperor Liu no longer heard Lu Duoxun glare in front of Zhao Pu and brag.
Beard, knock on the table.
What Emperor Liu said was that Zhao Pu was the Prime Minister of the imperial court after all, and he should still have the necessary respect. Lu Duoxun obviously listened to it, and of course he did not dare not to listen.
When Lu Duoxun calmed down, the center of the imperial court, at least the political hall, was much more harmonious. Based on the results, it can be inferred that Lu Duoxun was indeed a cause of the disputes in the imperial court.
The investigation of Yang Kefa, the chief envoy of Huaidong Road, led by Lu Duoxun, also came to an end. After Hou Zhi and other principals of the Yangzhou case were interrogated and executed in the autumn, it came to a complete halt. Of course, this was also Lu Duoxun's investigation.
It was a manifestation of compromising and was completely unpopular. Lu Duoxun did not dare to risk the disapproval of the world to do it. The most important thing was that he could not go against Emperor Liu's will.
In this dispute between Zhao and Lu, on the surface, Lu Duoxun was depressed. Zhao Pu should be proud, but he couldn't be proud at all.
If Zhao Pu did not have the idea of taking advantage of the Yangzhou case to punish Lu Duoxun, Emperor Liu did not believe it, and perhaps Zhao Pu himself did not believe it. Since he became prime minister, the ministers who partnered with him have changed one batch after another, like Song Qi,
Wang Pu and even Li Ye have never made Zhao Pu so disgusted. Lu Duoxun has a conceited and arrogant temperament, and his style is too rigid, which has repeatedly made Zhao Pu unable to step down.
Moreover, his ambition is too obvious and his hostility is too strong. He feels that he has squeezed his future and wants to replace him. He can tolerate everything, but when it comes to the core power of Zhengshitang, he cannot give in at all.
, a lot of tolerance before was just accumulated for one day of outbreak.
The Yangzhou case is undoubtedly an opportunity, a handle that can be completely manipulated, and a flaw that can be continuously attacked. Taking down a mere Yangzhou prefect, Hou Zhi, is obviously not Zhao Pu's original intention. His goal is to squeeze out Lu Duoxun
It is not impossible for the court to even investigate the crime.
However, they were fighting in the Zhengshi Hall, and Emperor Liu was watching in the Chongzheng Hall. When the referee came off the field, it was a force majeure factor.
Judging from the results, after the Yangzhou case, Lu Duoxun's prestige plummeted, and his reputation in the DPRK was ephemeral. But Zhao Pu really couldn't be happy. Although Lu Duoxun was punished, demoted, and fined, this
It's all innocuous.
What's even more outrageous is that Emperor Liu handed over the Metropolitan Procuratorate to Lu Duoxun. While his reputation was damaged, his real power was actually enhanced. How could Zhao Pu accept this?
However, no matter how dissatisfied he was in his heart, it was hard to show it. He had to praise Emperor Liu for his wisdom and acknowledge it with a smile. Of course, what worried Zhao Pu the most was Emperor Liu's attitude, supporting Lu Duoxun like this.
There is no guarantee that one day, Lu Duoxun will really replace him. Simply put, it is just a matter of Emperor Liu's words.
With Zhao Pu's shrewdness, how could he not see that Emperor Liu had used Lu Duoxun to check and balance him, and transferred him back to the center just to make him fight against him.
This is not surprising, but what Zhao Pu can't understand is why it is Lu Duoxun. Song Qi, Wang Pu and the others are so good. They are gentlemen. Lu Duoxun is a villain, and villains are also the most difficult to guard against.
Although Lu Duosun was embarrassed this time, learned a lesson, and felt depressed, as long as this kind of person still has breath, he will jump out and bite him back in revenge at any time.
There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days, and after this incident, Lu Duoxun will obviously become more difficult to deal with. This is also the most depressing thing for Zhao Pu.
Under Zhao Pu's mentality, under the court's calm surface, undercurrents are still quietly accumulating, waiting for the next outbreak. This is a cyclical thing, and as long as Lu Duoxun is still in the center, it is inevitable.
Of course, it's the same if you change someone. After all, there is only one position for the prime minister, and the power of the prime minister is limited. All ministers share the food, but one person has the majority, and others will want to take more. This is human nature and politics. However, if you change
Individuals may not be as radical as Lu Duosun, so radical that there is no concealment.
Lu Duoxun, who took a step back, only temporarily gave up his thoughts of competing with Zhao Pu head-on, but he did not stop working. After receiving the authority in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he became the first to take office.
The first step was to rectify the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate and depose a group of people who were "floating around" in his eyes. Of course, many people knew that this was retaliation because some of them were making criticisms.
Passed Ludoson's.
The second fire was that in accordance with Emperor Liu's will and using the Yangzhou case as a lesson, he once again launched a wave of administrative movements inside and outside the court to vigorously crack down on corruption and perversion of the law.
Lu Dosun is not relaxed at all. At the same time, he continues to expand his influence through his work in the Supervision Department. However, he has offended a lot of people. Of course, he is not afraid of offending people. After all, he has offended many people.
I made a vow to Emperor Liu that I would rather be a lonely minister than just pay lip service.
