Chao Cuo listened to Liu De's words, bowed his hands and said: "I will go to Ganquan to apologize!"
When Liu De heard this, he smiled inwardly, knowing that Chao Cuo was reminding him that my backer is very strong!
Regarding Chao Cuo's words, Liu De smiled noncommittally, and then suddenly said: "More than ten days ago, Kaifeng Hou Your Majesty met with the Emperor. Does Chao Neishi know?"
"Huh?" Chao Cuo's heart skipped a beat, and his face immediately became a little unhappy.
Tao Qing, Hou Tao Qing of Kaifeng, got the official position of imperial censor only after he strongly recommended it in front of the emperor.
Otherwise, there were so many Chehous in Chang'an. At that time, they were eagerly looking at the vacancy of the Yushi doctor, and there were countless people who wanted to have a purple ribbon on themselves. How could they get Tao, who was at the bottom of the Chehous in terms of ability and family background?
green?
After Tao Qing became the imperial censor, he has always been relatively docile. He fully supported all the opinions and policies proposed by Chao Cuo and did not dare to shirk them.
But who can really control everything in the political arena?
Since entering the official career, Chao Cuo has seen too many betrayals.
Chao Cuo knew very well that since Liu De dared to tell him that Tao Qing had gone behind his back to meet the Emperor, this must have happened, and Tao Qing definitely didn't say anything good about him.
But, no matter what, Tao Qing is his most capable helper and supporter now. Chao Cuo knows very well that no matter what Tao Qing has done in the past, he must maintain unity at this time.
Otherwise, before the work is done, your own people will start fighting among themselves!
Chao Cuo can still clearly distinguish the importance of this.
So, he said with a smile: "As a censor, the Marquis of Kaifeng assists the emperor and assists the prime minister in governing the world. It is just an ordinary thing for your majesty to meet the emperor!"
Liu De laughed and did not answer. He just said to himself: "Two days ago, I heard that Wang Hui of Daxing and Tao Qing, Hou Tao Qing of Kaifeng, impeached me!"
After saying these words, Chao Cuo's expression finally became extremely ugly.
If Tao Qing did some tricks behind his back before, it can be forgiven, because this is a contradiction among the people and can be resolved through various means. At most, he will suffer some losses if he makes a mistake, give up some power, and make a compromise.
What about a team that doesn’t have factions?
Even in remote rural areas, aren't clans divided into several factions?
But now when Chao Cuo heard that Tao Qing was still forming a clique behind his back, he was going to set up another branch!
It is a contradiction between ourselves and the enemy!
If Chao Cuo can still hold back, he is no longer Chao Cuo!
But in front of Liu De, Chao Cuo barely suppressed the murderous intention in his heart and said: "The imperial censor's actions are not a matter of one or two days. Your Highness must not take it to heart..."
Liu De listened and smiled, his goal had been achieved.
As soon as Liu De left the gate of Neishi Yamen, Chao Cuo and Tao Qing's honeymoon period was about to end.
No one can endure the betrayal of a young man, let alone Chao Cuo!
Without Chao Cuo's support, he will be suppressed and attacked by Chao Cuo. Tao Qing's position as imperial censor will definitely not be continued, and it is not even certain whether his title can be saved!
There are quite a few people in the court now eyeing the position of the imperial censor!
For example, when the Taoist candidate Liu She was succeeded by his father and his son, he was ordered around like a dog by the three generations of emperors of the old Liu family. Wasn't it just for fame and position?
Another example is Feng Tang, Prime Minister of Chu. He had been rotating among the counties for more than ten years, just waiting for the opportunity when the nine ministers or three princes in the court would become vacant!
In terms of closeness with the royal family, Tao Qing is not as good as Liu She.
In terms of qualifications, Tao Qing is not as good as Feng Tang.
Once Chao Cuo reveals his alienation from Tao Qing, the Chehou nobles and senior ministers in the court who are unwilling to be left alone will immediately pounce on Tao Qing and tear Tao Qing into pieces like sharks that smell blood!
After laughing, Liu De said: "I came to visit Chao Neishi today. I originally wanted to ask Chao Neishi for some advice on swordsmanship, and also discuss Chao Neishi's lectures on Shen-Han to the scholars before the second round of examinations.
, now it seems that this matter should be postponed for the time being..."
"I'm guilty of death..." After hearing Liu De's words, Chao Cuo felt regretful in his heart, and he lamented in his heart: "It would have been better if I had delayed the digging for two days... What a pity..."
Not to mention how much fame he could gain by giving lectures in front of thousands of scholars, let alone if he could dig out a few useful talents from those scholars and train them as disciples to continue his Chao Cuo path in the future.
He promoted Legalism to great heights.
Just Liu De's personal visit is a great opportunity to build closer relationships!
Chao Cuo sighed and bowed: "I will send someone to repair the outer wall of the Gaomiao immediately, and I will not dare to go over it again!"
Liu De did not express his position, but stood up and said calmly: "Chao Neishi should think about how to explain to his father..." He looked like he was refusing to accept anyone thousands of miles away. Then he stood up and left.
Chao Cuo hurriedly bowed and said, "Send you to Your Highness..."
After all, Chao Cuo had just chiseled the wall of Liu Bang's high temple. As Liu Bang's great-grandson, it would be strange if Liu De had a good face!
When Liu De left, Chao Cuo's face immediately turned red, and he smashed a vase placed in front of his desk to pieces.
This is not only anger that Tao Qing betrayed him, but also regret for missing a great opportunity.
For Legalists, the key to the realization of their political ambitions has always been the king.
This also made almost all the officials who came from the Legalist family more or less contaminated with all the above-mentioned problems.
And Liu De has been clearly expressed by the emperor in front of him that he intends to establish the throne. No matter what, Liu De and Chao Cuo must fawn on him!
Even Liu De slapped Chao Cuo on the left cheek. If he could please Liu De by extending his right cheek, then Chao Cuo wouldn't mind touching his right cheek again...
Liu De didn't go far when he heard the sound of something breaking.
He chuckled and walked straight out of Nei Shi Yamen.
At the door, the soldiers of the Confederate Army still maintained their fully armed fighting posture.
Liu De saw this, nodded, waved his hand and said: "Release the order, everyone returns to the team!"
"No!" Wang Qinian responded, then waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately put down their weapons and returned to their original positions.
"Go back to the palace!" Liu De ordered Wang Dao happily.
"No!" Wang Dao nodded and drove the carriage around the corner.
…………………………………………
Returning to Weiyang Palace, Liu De immediately knew something.
Li Guang, the prefect of Shangjun in the Han Dynasty, had served as a border general in Yuyang, Daijun and other border generals. He was a tragic general with great reputation in later generations. Li Guang returned to Chang'an to report on his duties. Even Liu De was sent a greeting note, which said:
Li Guang will come to see Liu De tomorrow.
"Where is Prefect Li now?" Liu De took the invitation and asked Ji An, who had received the people who came to send the invitation.
Ji An lowered his head and replied: "Your Highness, Prefect Li is currently at Changle Palace to greet the Queen Mother!"
"I know..." Liu De nodded and said, "Go down and do your work..."
"promise!"
Liu De took the invitation and smiled playfully: "Feng Tang Yi Lao, Li Guang is hard to seal..."
