In the following days, the Han monarchs and ministers have been working on one thing - designing a comprehensive set of standardized etiquette for the Shiqu Pavilion meeting.
This is important and necessary.
After all, it is a recognized fact that rituals and music have collapsed and order has ceased to exist.
But it is never a simple matter to re-establish a complete set of etiquette and various procedures for monarchs and ministers.
This involves all aspects of issues, especially issues of face and dignity.
Therefore, the courtiers had a quarrel.
But Liu Che didn't want to get involved in this issue.
It's just a set of etiquette, nothing special or important.
I think back then, Shusun Tong worked hard to design the etiquette for Liu Bang, but now except for the grand court ceremony, other etiquette is not used much.
Maybe in a few years, even the imperial ceremony will have to change its posture and redesign it.
Therefore, Liu Che just watched the ministers quarreling back and forth without giving up or taking any attitude.
After all, the emperor cannot always be arbitrary.
We cannot but give ministers a chance to express themselves.
Otherwise, what's the difference?
In China, since ancient times, we have to talk about "".
This is called sharing the world with me and the scholar-bureaucrats (nobles, nobles and relatives).
Therefore, after Liu Che came to the throne, he rarely did anything that ignored the opinions of others and acted on his own initiative.
Most policies are determined through court discussions and only made public after receiving the support of hundreds of officials.
He has always kept in mind the policy of uniting the majority and attacking the small group.
And in many insignificant matters, he completely let go and acted as a hands-off shopkeeper, letting the ministers discuss, decide and deploy by themselves. He only had to take care of things.
These measures are very effective.
At least, even those ministers who did not like the policies implemented by Liu Che and the national policies and systems advocated by Liu Che could not say anything, let alone find anything wrong.
All laws, policies and decisions are collective decisions.
It was only after the emperor had discussed with all the civil and military officials and obtained the support of at least more than half of the people, especially after convincing the prime minister and the imperial censor, that the three ministers attached it, the nine ministers discussed it, and the officials discussed it before it was officially announced.
Although they are opponents, the situation is fierce and the general trend is the trend.
You have to agree even if you don't agree.
Even if you don’t agree, you have to implement it!
Otherwise, they are rebellious ministers and traitors, and everyone can find them and punish them!
Not to mention, Liu Che also occasionally completely let go of some matters that seemed very grand in the eyes of the ministers and even had a fundamental bearing on the country, allowing the ministers to discuss and decide on their own.
He himself is like a clay statue, not interfering, taking no stand, or speaking out.
After the ministers had finished discussing it, he stamped it with his seal, forming a legal edict and announcing it to the world.
This has allowed many people to enjoy the privilege of "" and feel that they are the true masters of this country and this regime.
Immediately, morale is maxed out and work enthusiasm is maxed out.
Just like the etiquette system of this Shiquge meeting.
In the eyes of the ministers, this was a major event related to the foundation of the country and even the nature of the Han Empire.
How many steps does the emperor have to take to enter?
How many steps should the Prime Minister take when he takes his seat?
How should the giants of various schools of thought arrange their seats?
All are directly related to the key to world peace, universe stability and the order of the great road.
Being able to have full power and enjoy full decision-making power on such a major matter.
This made the ministers extremely satisfied and comfortable.
But what about the facts?
The etiquette of the Shiqu Pavilion meeting, which is held at least once every few years, is actually of no importance at all.
It is just a procedure, a face-saving project, and has nothing to do with national affairs or military affairs.
Instead of caring about these things, Liu Che felt that he might as well make good use of the rare leisure time before the Shiquge meeting to give himself a holiday and rest.
However, it's a pity...
The vacation plans were over before they even started.
Because Zhou Yafu is about to lead the Taiwei Xingyuan and the meritorious soldiers from the Battle of Gaoque back to Chang'an.
This shows how wise Liu Che’s decentralization behavior was.
I really want to catch everything and take care of everything.
Liu Che suspected that he might not live to be forty years old, and he might even be as pale as Qin Shihuang at the age of thirty, with a haggard face and a whole body of diseases.

"The Prime Minister also brought back the Huns envoy this time?" Liu Che took the report and laughed: "Isn't he crazy?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is said that after Your Majesty sent the imperial physician there, the Hun envoy finally regained his consciousness through the compassionate hands of the imperial physician..." A eunuch replied cautiously.
"Oh..." Liu Che smiled playfully.
Wonderful hands and benevolent heart?
hey-hey!
He adjusted his crown and hat and looked at himself in the bronze mirror, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
For an emperor, the most intolerable thing is to be treated like a monkey.
And this Huns envoy had obviously angered Liu Che.
Since this Huns dared to try to play tricks on him, he almost became a laughing stock like King Wu Fuchai.
Then, the Huns must pay the price for this!
"Go and call Master Yan to me!" Liu Che held up the ribbon and ordered.
"promise!"
Within half an hour, the master's father Yan hurriedly came to Liu Che and bowed respectfully: "I pay homage to your majesty. I wonder if your majesty has any instructions for summoning me?"
Liu Che looked at his father Yan, smiled, and said, "I remember that Aiqing is a high disciple of the strategist family?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, my mentor is Li Gong, the heir of the long and short Zongheng family..." The master's father Yan naturally did not dare to hide anything and immediately replied, while thinking in his heart why the emperor suddenly asked about this matter.
But Liu Che stood up with a smile, looked at his father Yan, and said: "Shan! You should be my Zhang Yi!"
"I order you to be my envoy and have a good talk with the Huns..."
Unequal treaties are not a unique invention of the European and American powers.
In fact, strategists are the geniuses in this area!
I think back then, Zhang Yi was the Prime Minister of Qin, how majestic and majestic he was.
It was he who invented the idiom "to push beyond the limits".
In addition, this talented diplomat, relying on his sharp tongue, tried his best to extort money at the negotiation table, playing the kings of other countries like dogs in the midst of applause.
What is the compensation for ceding land?
The most outstanding thing Zhang Yi did was to deceive King Chu Huai into a big fool.
But now, it is indeed time for the disciples of a political strategist to show off their talents again.
The thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, the Xiongnu tribes, and even the Xiongnu Empire itself can become their playground and a stage to display their talents.
Liu Che also believes that politicians definitely have the ability and strength to do this well!
Because they are the descendants of Su Qin and Zhang Yi and the earliest imperialists.
