Let’s get back to the point.
At the beginning of the first year of Yuanguang, it was from this year that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che truly became the helmsman with the highest power in the Han Empire.
Be a great emperor.
From now on, let the Han Dynasty defeat the Xiongnu, conquer the world, and let all nations come to court.
Let this empire, in your hands, truly conquer all corners of the world and dominate the world.
Liu Che, you can do it!
Because on your shoulders, you carry the expectations of all Han people.
"..."
Here, after taking power, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che placed the remains of his grandmother Dou Yifang and immediately prepared to take action.
The first target of his attack was the Dou family officials headed by the Dou family.
Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, judged from his own position and ideas that these officials of the Dou clan were all absolute rubbish and the worms of the country.
As for whether these officials are garbage and moths, it doesn't matter.
This is how it is for one emperor and one courtier, successive emperors, and successive ministers.
"..."
Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, lost his restraints. He wanted to change the current weak Han Empire according to his own will and ideas.
He wants to be the next Qin Shi Huang, or a greater emperor than Qin Shi Huang.
"..."
The first one to be solved was Zhuang Qingzhai, one of the three princes.
Liu Che had long been unhappy with this old guy who opened his mouth to be benevolent and righteous, but kept his mouth shut.
Zhuang Qingzhai, the imperial censor, originally wanted to rely on his old age and live in a muddle, but Liu Che didn't talk nonsense to him at all.
On the third day after Dou Yifang left, Liu Che drove him back to his hometown.
As for the many confidants he left behind, such as censors, court officials, etc...
On Liu Che's side, the result was the same, they were all dismissed and fired.
Then the officials of the Dou family, such as Zhangwuhou Dou Guangguo, Nanpihou Dou Pengzu, Da Sinong Dou Jing, etc., all lost their jobs and went home to become rich locals.
Originally, the officials surnamed Dou of the Dou family were very nervous, even very uneasy.
Because they knew very well that Liu Che, the young emperor, was definitely not a good man or woman.
Moreover, the Dou family, headed by Dou Yifang, had suppressed Liu Che for several years. This sworn hatred could not be solved by admitting their mistake and apologizing.
The Dou family has actually packed their things and prepared funeral arrangements a long time ago.
They only hope that His Majesty the Emperor, who has just taken over the power, can give them a happy life.
Don't use any dull knives to cut your flesh, just have fun if you want.
"..."
Later, things seemed to develop in line with their expectations.
Soon after, all the officials of the Dou family were dismissed and their homes were confiscated.
But the last blow, that is, the beheading, never came.
The dignitaries of the Dou family, headed by Dou Guangguo, felt very uncertain.
But what surprised them even more was that after a while, their family property was returned intact.
The dignitaries of the Dou family tried hard to figure out what tricks the young emperor was playing.
Others didn't understand what Liu Che was thinking.
As a smart person, Liu Che knows very well who is good to him and who is not good to him.
During the period after Dou Yifang's death, many ministers wrote letters one after another, saying that the Dou family's crimes were monstrous and full of evil.
Treating the Dou family should be like treating the Lu family back then, killing everyone and leaving no chickens or dogs behind. Only in this way can it be considered revenge.
However, Liu Che's next series of actions exceeded everyone's expectations.
He returned the memorial demanding severe punishment, and in one sentence with an incomprehensible tone, he gave the final conclusion to the matter.
"You have to be merciful and merciful, let's stop here."
To this day, Liu Che can still think of the scene before his grandmother Dou Yifang's death when he dreams back at midnight.
………
Therefore, when he was in power and faced with hatred, he chose forgiveness.
He forgives those who have wronged him.
It's not weakness, it's emotion.
The feud between Liu Che and the Dou family was settled.
But the matter is not over yet, because there is still one faction that has not been resolved, which is the Wuwei ruling faction headed by Prime Minister Xuchang.
This faction is very special.
Because of the governing philosophy of doing nothing, although Prime Minister Xuchang did not do any great good things, he also did not do any bad things.
Liu Che had no reason or excuse for the time being to deal with this bunch of old guys who were just getting paid.
After all, Prime Minister Xuchang and others have been in power for many years and have worked hard without merit.
Now, even if you want to tell them to get out, you have to find a good reason.
However, before Liu Che could drive people away, Prime Minister Xuchang took the opportunity to resign on his own initiative.
Faced with Prime Minister Xuchang who took the initiative to resign, Liu Che, although he did not stop him, was still a little embarrassed.
Therefore, Liu Che did not make things difficult for Xuchang.
Xuchang was also in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Among more than a dozen prime ministers, it was rare that one could die a good death.
"..."
Yuanguang, January 18th.
The time for the funeral of Empress Dowager Dou Yifang has passed.
"..."
In the Weiyang Hall of the Han Palace, at night, the lights are brightly lit, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music is continuous.
At this time, Liu Che had already bathed and changed into a loose top-quality cotton silk robe under the elaborate clothing of two young and beautiful maids.
The emperor is indeed the person who enjoys the most in this world.
The emperor not only had three thousand beauties, but also a group of beautiful young palace ladies.
Especially the maids who can serve the emperor personally, their skills in serving people are extremely high.
Under the massage of the two young and beautiful palace maids, Liu Che felt that the hard work of approving memorials and bamboo slips all day long was gone.
Liu Che was wearing a cotton silk robe and an imperial crown, as if he had an imperial attitude of maintaining dignity even when he was resting.
During the garrison hour, the sky was already extremely dark, and the tables in the palace were already filled with fine wine and delicacies.
There are all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas, birds and animals, and even the plates used to serve the dishes are all royal porcelain produced by the official kiln.
Yangtze swordfish, Changbai Mountain bear paws, Yunnan bird's nests, etc. are not uncommon.
What's rare is that on the table, there are several plates of seasonal vegetables that are only available in summer, which are green and extremely fresh.
I don’t know how to keep these summer fruits and vegetables alive in such a cold winter.
On Liu Che's side, just as he was about to pick up the food with chopsticks, he suddenly heard a burst of extremely rhythmic footsteps.
The expression on his face couldn't help but change.
I saw a beauty, it could even be said that she was a beauty of the level of a country, walking in.
