"Is there a problem with Wei Shuo?" Chen Xi looked at Liu Yan and said.
Liu Yan quickly signed the words and took a deep breath, "I report Situ Lu Zijing for forming a clique for personal gain, bending the law for personal gain, and stealing the country's public weapons for personal use!"
Chen Xi glanced at Lu Su, who was expressionless, while Liu Yan looked at this situation with cold sweat oozing from his forehead. Sure enough, it wasn't just Lu Su? It's over!
"Sit, sit, sit, I'll scare you." Chen Xi said with a smile, while Liu Yan was half sitting on a chair beside him, dripping with cold sweat.
"What's going on with the supervision system?" Chen Xi looked at Liu Yan and asked.
Liu Yan broke into a cold sweat and no longer knew how to answer.
Fortunately, Xun Yue and Mi Zhu had also rushed over at this time. As for Cui Yan, Cui Yan was not in Chang'an, so he did not come over.
"What's going on with the supervision system?" Chen Xi looked at Xun Yue and asked.
Xun Yue looked at Lu Su with a complicated expression, "Doctor Liu was the first to discover that Situ was in a clique."
"Weishuo, tell me what's going on." Chen Xi looked at Liu Yan and asked.
Liu Yan tremblingly told everything. Some parts were a bit confusing, but there were all smart people present and they all understood what was going on.
Liu Yan is considered a famous leader. Although he is not very capable, he has friends all over the world. Chen Xi has added supervisory responsibilities to Liu Yan since the fifth year of Yuanfeng. Liu Yan also works hard to do it. He is not very capable, but he works hard.
It's still guaranteed.
Since Chen Xi has added a burden to him, Liu Yan will work hard to do it.
However, sometimes things are very unexpected. Liu Yan's supervisory system was the first to discover Lu Su's problems. Liu Yan was almost scared to death when he found out.
Because Lu Su was Liu Yan's immediate boss, and when he conducted an inspection and found his boss, Liu Yan's first reaction was that the investigation was wrong, and his second reaction was that it was impossible.
After all, Lu Su's performance has always been worthy of others' trust. In addition, Lu Su's status is really high. If he really wants to be ranked among the twelve elders, Chen Xi is first, Lu Su is definitely second, and the others
There's no need to grab it.
Therefore, after Liu Yan found something, he quickly sealed it up and let more cautious professionals verify it. If he didn't check, he wouldn't know, and if he checked, he would be shocked.
Even without clear evidence, Liu Yan realized that his immediate boss, Situ Lusu, definitely had a problem, but there was a problem with Lu Su. The only people Liu Yan could report to were Chen Xi and Liu Bei. As for Tingwei Manchong, go away.
, Tingwei is responsible for Situ.
The problem is that Liu Yan really lacks the confidence to report Chen Xi and Liu Bei, and Liu Yan also has problems with his own abilities, so Liu Yan chooses to wait and see first and collect evidence.
During this process, Liu Yan became aware of the Jizhou connection problem, and then Liu Yan found an excuse to report it to the Government Affairs Department.
In essence, Liu Yan's behavior was to pull a big case to attract everyone's attention, and then when digging deeper, he wanted others to discover Lu Su's problems on their own.
There is no problem with this idea, but Liu Yan did not think that the case itself was big enough. In the end, the Government Affairs Department did not think about how Liu Yan encountered such an accident.
Jizhou was almost closed at that time, and it was impossible to go to Chang'an to commit stupidity anyway, but Liu Yan encountered a fraudster who was unlikely to appear in Chang'an.
In fact, this was a reason, a reason Liu Yan found to report.
However, the report failed this time. What's worse is that Liu Yan's report directly killed Guo Jia's deputy, and it was Li You who nailed him to the chair on the spot.
Does Liu Yan still dare to dig?
Not to mention that Liu Yan's abilities are far inferior to Guo Jia's. Even if Liu Yan had Guo Jia's abilities, he would still be in trouble in Liu Yan's current position.
After all, for Liu Yan, it was equivalent to proving that Guo Jia, the internal control officer, had problems before he revealed the evidence that his boss had a problem, and Li You was suspected of destroying the evidence.
How to do this, of course, just pretend you don't know anything and just muddle along. After all, the upper limit of Liu Yan's ability is here, and it is unrealistic to ask too high.
This is not the worst part, the worst thing is the follow-up. After Chen Xi went to Ganges, Liu Yan got a piece of distorted legal information from Yang Dan about the internal affairs of the bureaucracy.
There was no way, in order to show Xin Xianying what the genius of hard work is, Yang Dan studied the whole family and gambled on the political science major questions to either analyze the operation of the bureaucracy or to monitor the deficiencies of the system structure, and then mobilized resources to investigate first.
We all know the results later. She really passed the political science exam, and then Yang Dan got second place in the exam, and was hired by Li You to be the governor of Zhangye County.
At that time, Li You commented that Yang Dan not only thought deeply about the major political issues, but also conducted on-the-spot investigations, which was much better than he thought.
In fact, Li You's judgment was completely correct, and Yang Dan really went on an on-site inspection.
As a free man, Yang Dan went on an on-the-spot investigation. Because he was a pure newcomer, it would not arouse any suspicion. However, Yang Dan met Liu Yan, a famous scholar, and told Liu Yan what he did not understand.
Again, even if Liu Yan is a waste, he is still a veteran who has been struggling in the bureaucracy system, talking to people and talking to ghosts, and has secured a position of two thousand stones. Even if he is weaker than Chen Xi and others, at least he is
Know what a normal bureaucracy looks like.
When Yang Dan said it, he didn't feel anything. Liu Yan broke out in a cold sweat when he listened. When he turned around and waited for Yang Dan to leave, Liu Yan felt that he was a little chilly.
"Is there anything else Zijing wants to say?" Chen Xi half-closed his eyes and said with a sigh, "I know you are the weakest link, but at this point, that document can only guarantee your life.
Yes, do you have any excuses?"
Lu Su shook his head and took off his hair crown.
"We agreed to help the people of the world fight together." Chen Xi picked up Lu Su's hair crown. At that time, the two of them had their hair crowns pulled out, and they were bragging and spanking together freely. At that time, everyone present except him and Lu Su
, that is, Mi Zhu is the only one.
Therefore, Chen Xi gave Lu Su a document early and firmly put Mi Zhu in his name, just to prevent the two of them from getting into trouble one day.
Although Chen Xi knew very well that as long as Lu Su was no longer under his command and was no longer completely subordinate, something would inevitably happen one day, but when that day came, Chen Xi was still very tired.
"Yes, we agreed to mass-produce resourceful men at the beginning." Lu Su said with some emotion, "I think it was really a matter of youthful loyalty."
"I did it. At least I have gone on the right track, and the people have also gone on the right track." Chen Xi looked at Lu Su and said, "You have many opportunities to turn around. The official document is always in your hands. You
You can use it at any time, why must you put it off until it’s hard to get back?”
"If it was really hard to get back, I should have torn up the official document." Lu Su said softly, "I took out the official document several times and looked at the name I signed on it. To be honest, if it were now
If so, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sign it.”
"During the snowstorm the year before last, the call for Sangong to resign was actually a test for me, right?" Chen Xi sighed and said, he didn't realize it before, but now that he knows it, he realizes it.
"Yes, by the way, it also proves that I, Situ, is actually quite important." Lu Su nodded and said, "In the entire Yuanfeng Year, everyone who can speak out about the resignation of Sangong at least knows that the celestial phenomena are in your hands. In this case
, and also called for me to resign, which is naturally to test you."
Chen Xi squinted his eyes, and then returned to normal. It was meaningless.
"There have been only two choices from the beginning. One is that we continue to use education and military personnel to fill the bureaucracy and balance the three public institutions. The other is the direction you want to take now." Chen Xi said rather sadly,
"Zijing, you should know how disappointed I am."
"Actually, Zichuan, you have ignored people's hearts." Lu Su sighed and said, "I actually don't want to. Who else do you think is behind me besides the noble family?"
"There are also emerging powerful people who hope to join forces with the ancient powerful families." Chen Xi said through gritted teeth.
"Who are those people, Zichuan, do you know?" Lu Su looked at Chen Xi and said.
Chen Xi glanced at the people around him, and finally fell on Lu Su.
"It's not just that. You actually see farther and know more, but you are timid at this point." Lu Su looked at Chen Xi, while Zhuge Liang and others had extremely complicated expressions.
"Kong Ming, after I go to prison, be careful when you sit in this position." Lu Su looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "They can't do anything to Zichuan, but they can do something to us. Occasionally, you should pay attention to your Zhuge family and
Your wife clan."
Zhuge Liang's face darkened when he heard this. He had noticed it before, but he didn't realize that the problem would be so big, unless there was a deeper force behind it.
"Feng Xiao, please pay attention to your son's circle of friends. Don't be like Gong Heng and step into other people's traps." Lu Su didn't pay attention to Zhuge Liang's face. He turned to look at Guo Jia and said, "You have more time."
Be aware of the need for military power behind you."
Chen Xi's face darkened, while Zhuge Liang's expression changed slightly.
"Wen Ru, don't resort to the purge method. In this era, the power of all strata in the country is far greater than in previous eras. Your method is not easy to use. In fact, even if you mobilize troops, you will not be able to use it.
You can't get rid of me." Lu Su looked at Li You and said sincerely.
Li You nodded with a heavy face. He had realized how huge the power behind Lu Su was.
"Zichuan, I think you should now know how many people are working hard behind me." Lu Su said calmly while looking at Chen Xi.
"Just to take a gamble and eat everything I created?" Chen Xi sighed and said.
"Isn't that enough?" Lu Su said calmly.
"It's really hard to satisfy my desires." Chen Xi said with a complicated attitude.
"If you have a chance, just give it a try. If it works, you will compromise, right." Lu Su sighed and said, "Although I think you will definitely not compromise, they think you will. To be honest, when it comes to me,
There is no need for other embellishments, but they do."
"Why do you always feel like you are so happy with it?" Chen Xi looked at Lu Su and asked in confusion.
"It's not too resistive. Since I've been tied up, it's good to challenge you once. At least it can make those people give up completely." Lu Su said calmly. Chen Xi looked at Lu Su who was getting more and more complicated.
Seeing that Chen Xi opened his mouth several times but did not make a sound, Lu Su interrupted Chen Xi, "Stop talking, this is my own choice. In fact, the reason of Renxiao is only one of them. The real reason is still because of myself. I really want to refuse."
, I can still refuse.”
Can he refuse? Maybe, but it is impossible for Lu Su to refuse his grandmother.
The Lu family in Jiangbei is just a powerful landowner, and such a family has a thirty-two-year-old third son. At this level, there is no possibility of moving forward in the officialdom. The only thing left is to strengthen oneself. This is very realistic.
This is also a very practical situation.
Lu Su's grandmother can only be said to have made a normal choice for a powerful landowner. Lu Su accepted this choice, so everything that followed happened.
"How many troops are there?" Chen Xi asked after being silent for a while.
"How many people have paid but feel that they have not received enough in return and feel that they are not as good as those families who founded the country." Lu Su did not give an answer, but he gave an answer that could make Chen Xi and others think.
"Military leader?" Chen Xi sighed.
"There's nothing wrong with this word." Lu Su understood the meaning instantly.
"The army is the country's army, not an individual's army." Chen Xi said seriously.
"But Jiang Dong's example will ruin a lot of things." Lu Su said flatly.
"That's understandable." Chen Xi nodded bitterly.
Lu Su's situation has made Chen Xi understand a lot of things. Unlike later generations, the Han Dynasty did not have a clear civil and military system. The twelve senators actually had their own military forces behind them. The only difference was whether they were closely integrated.
Lu Su is equivalent to a general statement by many forces who are dissatisfied with the current situation.
Again, I didn't dare to confront Chen Xi, so I had to choose a roundabout way.
"It's a pity that I don't want to compromise at all this time." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Zhongyu, send Zijing and Boning to the imperial prison, and let the palace guards divide the five hundred people to guard the imperial prison while the others sign the official documents.
, check it step by step, I just want to see if the bureaucracy can still function well."
"A lot of people will die, and a lot of official positions will be vacant. The bureaucracy has only experienced two changes before. This time there are large-scale deficiencies. What will you do?" Lu Su looked at Chen Xi and said,
is the core of the problem.
Just like the disgusting Li Er of the Tang Dynasty family, the hard power is indeed not as good as Li Er, but if you want to govern the place, you must use these people. Without these people, the world will not be able to function.
This is why it was launched at this time, because this is the only time Chen Xi needs them. After two waves of turbulence in the bureaucratic system, there are already gaps in the officials. If there is another bigger wave, there will be trouble. This is to force Chen Xi to compromise.
I was cheated, so I lay down in bed and looked at my monthly ticket. Okay, wait until I finish my meal. During the episode, I agreed to sign a document. Even if I was cheated, I would accept it.
