Deyang Hall, back hall.
Liu Bian recently moved here from Jingfu Hall. Compared with Jingfu Hall, this place is much more spacious.
At this moment, Liu Bian was lying on the soft couch, turning over, turning his head, and said to Liu Shao who was not far away: "Yang'er, come, follow your father, turn over once, use force, come on, turn over once... "
Liu Bian kept making turning movements, trying to guide the little guy to turn over.
The little guy opened his eyes wide and looked at Liu Bian with his head tilted, showing no intention of turning over.
The palace maids and Huangmen not far away were all looking forward to it.
After a long while, Liu Bian sighed, picked up the little guy, shook it gently in the air, and said, "It's been more than a month, why don't you turn over..."
The little guy was pink and jade-like, with big clear eyes. He looked at Liu Bian and suddenly grinned, waving his little hands and giggling.
Liu Bian couldn't help but laugh, shook his head a few times, and said, "I'll let you laugh. When you get older, I'll see if my father doesn't spank you..."
Pan Yin came in from outside the door. Seeing this scene, he suddenly smiled and said: "Your Majesty."
Liu Bian hummed, sat cross-legged, put the little guy in front of him, and reached out to take the memorial handed over by Pan Yin.
There are five in total, open them one by one and look at them.
The first is some reports from Hu Cao about the autumn tax. It is estimated that the total amount of autumn grain will be 220,000 dan. After taking into account the depletion, local deficit, etc., it is estimated to be about 150,000 dan in Taicang.
Liu Bian looked thoughtful, "150,000 shi, which is much more than in previous years. Most of the reason is that the banditry in Bingzhou, Sili, and Yanzhou has calmed down a little, and farming has increased. It cannot be attributed to the 'New Deal'."
After a while, he opened the second channel, which was about the Henan Yin incident. Hu Cao characterized the incident as 'misappropriation of disaster relief', and Zhong Ji and others 'violated the law and acted in a serious manner' and suggested 'lenient treatment'.
Liu Bian narrowed his eyes slightly and said to himself: "If Xun Yu is not here, is this Cao Cao blind?"
Shaking his head, Liu Bian opened the third channel.
This chapter is a memorial from Yushitai. The content of the memorial is quite detailed and lists many suspicious things, including "acting without authorization", "being arrogant before and being respectful later", "the excuses are often untrue", "Henan Everyone in the Yin family agreed, 'Wait a minute.
But there is no actual evidence!
"It seems like I've done something."
Compared with Hu Cao, Yushitai was obviously a step further. Liu Bian smiled and opened the fifth channel.
This is a memorial written by Luoyang Lingchen Palace. The general content is to express his merits for Zhongji, admitting his "mistakes" and "disgraceful to the imperial court", and requesting to resign.
Liu Bian couldn't help but tilted his head, a little surprised, and said to himself with a strange expression: "There are some tricks in this kind of compilation, and it can actually make Chen Gong voluntarily take the blame."
"Wow wow..."
The little guy in his arms grabbed Liu Bian's trousers and opened his mouth to bite.
Liu Bian held his little hand, put the memorial aside, looked at Pan Yin and said, "In ten days, will Zhong Ji go to Beijing to report on his work?"
Pan Yin said quickly: "Yes. According to the rules, the work will be reported after ten days."
Liu Bian counted the time in his mind and nodded: "It's almost time to come back."
With that said, he walked off the soft couch, put on his shoes, picked up Liu Shao, touched his little face, and said: "Today, my father will take you to meet a person from a longevity family. I hope you will also live a long life in the future." ,How about it?"
The little guy stretched out his little hand and grabbed Liu Bian's collar.
Liu Bian pulled his collar a little and gave it to the little guy to catch. As he walked, he said, "Son, you have to remember that a person's greatest enemy is time. It doesn't matter if you defeat your enemy in one moment. Even if you defeat you in a lifetime, it doesn't matter." Don't be discouraged. You must have a good attitude and live longer than that person. When he is buried, you will write his biography, publish it all over the world, and go to his grave every year to burn a copy for him..."
Pan Yin and others listened from behind, their expressions twisted unnaturally.
The little guy grabbed the corner of Liu Bian's clothes, put it in his mouth and bit it.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?" Pan Yin couldn't help but ask after walking out of Jiade Hall.
Liu Bian looked back at Dian Wei, who had already changed into regular clothes, and said, "Go to the Talent Recruitment Hall."
Pan Yin was startled, wondering why Liu Bian suddenly wanted to go to the Talent Recruitment Hall.
'Is there anyone at the recruitment hall? ' Pan Yin thought to himself.
Liu Bian, dressed in plain clothes, left the palace and went straight to the recruiting hall.
The little guy got tired of playing with the hem of his clothes and knocked his chin on Liu Bian's shoulder. His big eyes blinked and he looked curiously outside the palace.
This was his first time out of the palace, and he stretched out his little hands from time to time, as if he wanted to catch something.
Liu Bian didn't dare to buy him food now. Seeing that the sun was a little bright, he bought him a hat.
The little guy blinked and showed no reaction, as if he didn't like it very much. He lay in Liu Bian's arms as if he was about to sleep.
Liu Bian strolled around casually. Before he reached the recruitment hall, he saw a group of people confronting each other, vaguely arguing about something.
Liu Bian waved his hand, and the plainclothes men behind him spread out, leading Pan Yin and Dian Wei as they approached quietly. The sound of the argument gradually became clearer.
Coming closer and looking at the two parties arguing, Liu Bian subconsciously touched his chin.
The difference between the two parties can be seen in their clothes. One party wears the clothes of a general subordinate and has a strong and powerful voice. There are about ten people; the other party is exquisitely dressed and has impressive equipment. He is obviously a child of a noble family.
The subordinate officials were the first to attack, with loud and forceful voices.
"What's Henan Yin's fault? He opened a warehouse to release grain and helped the victims. This is a benevolent way!"
The son of the aristocratic family spoke calmly, but with unquestionable firmness.
"That is the imperial court's autumn grain. According to regulations, it must be escorted to Taicang. He opened the warehouse privately and misappropriated it, which is against the imperial court's regulations!"
Both sides choked alternately, refusing to give in to each other.
"An official serves the people, not the court. He knows the consequences and resolutely opens a position. This is the way to be an official. He is thousands of times better than others!"
"Absurd! A violation of the law is a violation of the law. Today Henan Yin opens a position, and tomorrow Jingzhao Yin opens a position. What else does the court need to do? Henan Yin has no court and opens a position without authorization. He should be severely punished!"
"It's ridiculous! Tens of thousands of victims are crying for food. If Henan Yinguo hadn't opened warehouses and tens of thousands of people poured into Gyeonggi, do you know what would have happened? By then, would five thousand stones be able to solve the problem? I'm afraid it would have taken tens of thousands. One hundred thousand! Do you know the consequences?"
"You...then Henan Yin has run out of food, the victims are swarming in rebellion, Taicang has no food available, and tens of thousands of people have entered Luoyang. Do you know the consequences?"
"If the court still doesn't have money and food after such a long time, it means the court is incompetent. What does it have to do with Henan Yin?"
"Henan Yin can misappropriate money and food, and other places can naturally do the same. Why do you blame the court?"
"Is it possible that other counties are also suffering from disasters? Are there tens of thousands of victims in need of relief?"
"Do other counties have nothing else to do except the disaster? Do you think my warehouse in Dahanzhou County is already full and about to overflow?"
"This is a matter for the imperial court. How can we blame Henan Yin?"
"As an official, you must first discipline yourself. How can you act recklessly?"
Liu Bian listened and found it interesting, and looked at the two leaders.
The subordinate official is a stout young man, about twenty-five or six years old, with an expression that seems to be resentful, and he speaks with a gun and a stick.
The descendant of the aristocratic family is about one or two years older than Liu Bian. He is a handsome young man with a sincere and reasonable attitude.
The little guy seemed to be awakened. He turned his head, opened his eyes wide, and stared at the strangers curiously.
The two groups of people had been arguing for who knows how long. They were uncompromising and each had their own reasons.
"Brother, what do you think?" Suddenly, the leader of the aristocratic family raised his hand and asked Liu Bian.
Liu Bian was startled. He was just watching a show, so why did he ask about me?
The spokesman for the subordinate official looked at Liu Bian and snorted: "You, the children of aristocratic families, have no worries about food and clothing, how can you understand the suffering of ordinary people? How can you know what it feels like to starve to death?"
"Wow..." As if he felt someone scolding him, the little guy in Liu Bian's arms stretched out his hand and pointed at the subordinate official and said, wow wow.
Liu Bian gave the little guy a strong lift, hugged him again, and said with a smile: "It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs. I am afraid that this matter will give the court a headache, so I have nothing to say."
The son of the aristocratic family looked at Liu Bian seriously, then glanced at Pan Yin and the unusually tall Dian Wei. Knowing that Liu Bian had an extraordinary background, he raised his hand and said more sincerely: "I believe that an official must be loyal to the king and the country. The two are absolutely indispensable. If one is missing, he will be a treasonous traitor, the greatest traitor in the world! If the other two are missing, he will be a sycophant who seeks power and brings disaster to the country! What do you think, brother?"
Seeing that this man was obviously trying to attract foreign aid, Liu Bian kept his smile and said, "Those who are loyal to the emperor and the country are just like paper. Not all ministers who uphold integrity and uprightness are capable ministers. Those who wield power and evil may not be unloyal to the emperor and the country. Brother, you are stubborn. .”
Hearing this, the younger brother from a well-known family looked at Liu Bian, frowned deeply, and immediately his face darkened, and said: "I think your brother has an extraordinary temperament. I think he comes from a famous family, but I don't want to make such arrogant remarks, which is very chilling!"
Liu Bian raised his eyebrows. Was he being treated coldly?
The spokesman for the subordinate official was facing Liu Bian, with an equally unkind look on his face, and said: "Loyalty is loyalty, and adultery is adultery. How can we be confused? People like you don't know right from wrong, are insidious and cunning, and you will definitely be a treacherous person in the future!" "
Liu Bian looked at the dozen or so people on both sides who were staring at him eagerly, and was stunned again and again.
Did his words offend both parties?
The son of the aristocratic family seemed to be very satisfied with the subordinate's words. He raised his hand and said, "What my brother said is exactly what I want. If I offend you with today's remarks, please forgive me."
The subordinate official was generous and responded: "I will teach you, and I will get drunk with my brother one day!"
The two sides, who had just been at war with each other and were full of gunpowder, greeted each other politely, looked like they were sorry to see each other so late, exchanged a few words, and left one after another.
Liu Bian was left alone, looking strange.
"Wow..." Seeing these people leaving, the little guy in his arms stretched out his little hands and grabbed them again.
"Bo Ning, let's go!" Suddenly, someone among the subordinates who walked not far away shouted.
The spokesman for the subordinate officials responded, and everyone left in a hurry.
Liu Bian turned around and looked at the group of children from aristocratic families. Six or seven people walked into the recruitment hall talking and laughing. Before entering, the leader looked back at Liu Bian.
Liu Bian did not hesitate, smiled at him, and followed him in stride.
The man seemed to frown, but had no other reaction and walked directly into the recruitment hall.
