The Hall of Houde suddenly became busy. Hua Xin, who had been arguing with Wang Lang, was the first to rush over, lie down in front of Wang Lang, stretched out his hand, and asked about his breathing. Everyone looked at this situation in shock. Qi Yue listened.
Hearing the emperor's cry, he didn't even have time to enter the Houde Hall, and rushed directly to find the imperial doctor's order. The two people were arguing loudly just now, and Qi Yue heard it very clearly!!
I didn't expect that this prince-in-law, who seemed so gentle, could be so fierce when angry. Hearing the last sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, Qi Yue was sure that as long as the old man didn't go crazy and chop Zhuge Liang.
, I'm afraid he was already lying on the ground. The prince-in-law scolded him too harshly, especially after the other party insulted the master. The old man would definitely not be able to bear the scolding!
Qi Yue hurriedly ran to find the imperial doctor.
In the Hall of Houde, Hua Xin raised his head in horror, exhaled, and said: "He's not dead yet, he's still alive... That's great, that's great..." Seeing him like this, Zhuge Liang just
The intimidating momentum slowly disappeared. Looking at the white-haired old man on the ground, he suddenly felt a little guilty. Was he being a little cruel? But who asked him to insult his master?
In Zhuge Liang's heart, there are three villains, Rao Yang, Zhuge Zhan, and Liu Mo. These three are the ones who are most likely to make him explode. Including Zhuge Liang's first fight with others, it was because of Liu Mo, who was angry with Zhuge Liang who lost his father when he was young.
In other words, Liu Mo is like his father, who cannot be tainted by others, especially by his origin. What have you done for the Han Dynasty? How dare you call a capable minister who has worked for the Han Dynasty half his life a barbarian?
Soon, the imperial doctor rushed in and bowed to the emperor.
Liu Xi said anxiously: "Hurry up and see the prince!" The imperial physician then hurried over to look at the prince on the ground, only to see him lying there, taking the prince's pulse. After a while, he stood up in a hurry.
Looking at the emperor, he said: "Your Majesty, the prince is fine, he is just a little angry and upset. After a few days of cultivation, he will probably get better..."
When Liu Xi heard this, he felt relieved, nodded, and said: "Okay, just take the prince out...send him back to his mansion, take good care of him, and if others ask, tell him
During the discussion, I was so angry that I fainted!" Qi Yue quickly agreed, called several Huangmen, carried Wang Lang, and left the place.
After Wang Lang left, Hua Xin slowly stood up and looked at Zhuge Liang in the distance, but she did not dare to stand next to him anymore.
Liu Xi cleared his throat, looked at Zhuge Liang, and said: "Kong Ming... Even if the prince is wrong, he is still an old minister of my old man. He has been working hard for official studies. No matter what, you can't treat him like this. When he wakes up, you can go and tell him."
Sorry, remember to be kind and don't do this again... You are colleagues, not mortal enemies!!" After hearing Liu Xi's words, Zhuge Liang bowed his hands and accepted the order.
Hua Xin looked at the emperor and asked: "Your Majesty, what about our official studies..."
"Since the prince is unwell, you should handle the matter of paying for the official school. By the way, you can ask Sikong to help you. However, you are still the main one, do you understand?"
"Here you go!'
"Okay, then go out!"
Hua Xin fled away, leaving only Liu Xi, Xun Yu and Zhuge Liang in the Hall of Houde. Liu Xi sat down tiredly and asked the two of them to sit in front of him. He was helpless.
He said: "These annoying things, the ministers are quarreling so much that I don't even have time to eat a bowl of rice, and I haven't even eaten my lunch! Sometimes, I really annoy these old ministers, they always like to quarrel.
, likes to cause trouble!"
The emperor said, looking at the two confidants in front of him, and said with a wry smile: "I can't even afford a stable meal, so it's better for you. You never make trouble for me. After all, why are you here?"
Xun Yu and Zhuge Liang looked at each other, and Xun Yu said, "How about we wait for a while, and your Majesty will have dinner first, and then we can discuss it later?"
Liu Xi shook his head and said: "No need, let's settle the matter before eating, otherwise my mind will be filled with all kinds of political affairs and I won't be able to eat well!" Seeing the emperor's insistence, the two of them had no choice.
Xun Yu continued to conceal, and glanced at Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang was about to speak, but Xun Yu stopped him and looked at the emperor solemnly.
"Your Majesty, it's like this. The last time I came to Houde Hall to discuss with Your Majesty the restriction of state pastors, I had no idea. I just thought about changing my official position to replace the governor. So I went to Shangshutai and met Guo Jia.
After that, he was still convinced. This guy and his ministers said that today's officials in temples and localities are too cumbersome, with various overlaps and unclear politics. Not only do they keep the people busy, but even the officials themselves are inefficient..."
"To put it simply, in order to leave the county, people have to go to the pavilion chief to collect evidence, the county government, and the city gate officer. They have to go to six or seven places before they can finally get it done. This is true for all kinds of things, especially
It is cumbersome, and it also greatly increases the burden on the national treasury. It is really difficult to support so many officials."
"Therefore, if we can simplify the official system of temples and localities, put all supervisory power in the hands of the censor, select elites to join the staff, and invest the money saved by the temple, I am afraid it will be more efficient and more effective than before.
It’s convenient and beneficial to the country and the people. Guo Jia also came up with a very good official system. Your Majesty, look..."
Xun Yu said, took out the document from his sleeve and handed it to the emperor who was a little confused.
When the emperor lowered his head and looked at the document, Xun Yu explained again, "Let the three ministers become empty duties, and they are mainly carried out in three stations, and the centers of the three stations are all at your majesty. In this way, you will not be afraid of rebellious ministers."
Class, in addition, this kind of efficiency will be faster, and there will also be a jurisdictional relationship between various departments, which will not be as chaotic as it is now. Neutral institutions such as Jimin Station, Guanxue Station, and Printing Station will
Someone can be integrated into the entire official system..."
"Including the generals in the field who are no longer needed today, as well as the officials established for emergencies at that time, they can all be abolished or changed."
Looking at the document handed over by Xun Yu and listening to Xun Yu's explanation, Liu Xi couldn't help but take a breath of air. Do you want to cancel the three ministers?? You want to cancel the field officials? You also want to take away the power in the hands of Jiu Qing? Even Zhi Jinwu couldn't help it.
Want to cancel??Aren’t you afraid that my father-in-law will tear you alive??
Liu Xi looked at the document and was dumbfounded. He swallowed and said, "Isn't this a little too much?"
Xun Yu shook his head and said: "Of course not. As long as your majesty agrees, I will have a way to persuade the officials and get them to agree. I promise that the restructuring will be completed smoothly. Your majesty, that day, I was at Guo Jia's residence. Here, Guo Jia once told the minister that handling this matter was extremely dangerous and would definitely endanger his family, so he asked the minister to find an assistant with a good family background and extraordinary intelligence..."
"So, I found Zhuge Liang. He met all the requirements, and his talent for debating was also noticed by Your Majesty. He will stand up for me and face all the officials. He will be responsible for persuasion and the subsequent arrangement. I will Complete it yourself... If there is any merit, I am willing to give it all to Zhuge Liang. If there is any fault, I will bear it alone and will never let Zhuge Liang get involved in the slightest!"
Xun Yu said seriously.
Zhuge Liang also suddenly realized, why do I say that this policy has such a long span? It turned out to be Guo Jia who came up with it after he was dismissed!
Liu Xi looked at Zhuge Liang in front of him and laughed in his heart, this guy? You want him to argue with my officials? Do you want him to scold all my officials and send them to the imperial physician?
Xun Yu said seriously: "Your Majesty, due to the long-term reform, the official system is in chaos. It is imperative to reform it, but sooner or later. Taking advantage of the fact that the three princes have lost their prestige and cannot unite to resist, it may be implemented in time." It is better than when the next three princes appear and order the ministers, the power of the three princes is too great. The three princes can unite in the temple..."
"That's enough! The three gentlemen are all trusted by me. Even if you are my uncle, you can't instigate the relationship between me and the three gentlemen at will!!" Liu Xi said angrily. He stood up with dissatisfaction in his eyes. , made Xun Yu's heart feel particularly cold. Could it be that his idea was going to die in the womb like this? I didn't expect that the emperor would be so opposed to it.
Liu Xi stood up, walked around, and said: "I have never doubted the officials. I trust them. I believe every official in the Han Dynasty. Your statement really chills me. I really Angry...Uncle Xun, you should go out today, I don’t want to say anything more to you..."
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Xun Yu was about to speak when Liu Xi suddenly raised his hand. Xun Yu sighed helplessly and stood up slowly. Zhuge Liang also stood up together. The two were about to leave. Liu Xi suddenly looked at Zhuge Liang said: "If you stay, I will discuss the reform of the official system with you! Uncle Xun, just leave. I will not agree with your proposal..."
Hearing the emperor's words, Xun Yu suddenly woke up, raised his head, his face was extremely happy, and bowed to the emperor. When he saw the emperor's solemn face, he remembered the emperor's intentions, and suddenly changed into a sad expression. , lowered his head and left quickly.
Liu Xi looked at the calm Zhuge Liang in front of him and asked with a smile: "Kong Ming is not surprised at all?"
"That's natural. If your Majesty can't even see the merits of this policy, then he's not the great emperor that I know!"
"Hahaha!"
The emperor laughed, stared at Zhuge Liang, and asked: "Kong Ming, do you think this can be done? If all the officials oppose it, even if I have the intention, I will not be able to implement it. I can disobey my ministers, but I cannot disobey all the ministers." ...What do you think we should do?”
"Your Majesty, naturally you can't go against the officials. You can pull some people and suppress others. That's it... that's all."
The two slowly looked at each other, but then they laughed in unison.
"So, we have to find the first minister and ask him to help us first..."
"Your Majesty, that's exactly what it is..."
"Then, this minister should be able to speak well in the temple, and be able to make others listen to him..."
"Your Majesty, that's exactly what it is..."
"So....."
The two of them raised their heads at the same time and said at the same time:
"Kuozhang!"
"Zhang Fei!"
