Han Shizu

Chapter 1806 Yanyan, help me with my advice

In the evening, East Palace, Xuande Palace.

In the dormitory, Liu Yang was lying quietly on the soft couch, with a folded towel on his forehead, looking tired, and his overall condition was obviously worrying.

"Your Highness!" Xiao Chuo was waiting on the side, seeing Liu Yang's exhausted and preoccupied appearance, he couldn't help calling out with concern.

"I'm fine! Don't worry!" Liu Yang's voice was very low, his eyes were closed all the time, he just took off the towel on his forehead, and lightly patted his forehead with the back of his hand, looking very sad.

Seeing this, Xiao Chuo immediately approached, and gently massaged Liu Yang with those soft hands.This method was obviously effective, and soon, the uncomfortable expression on Liu Yang's face eased a lot.

"Your Highness is still worrying about the court affairs?" Seeing that Liu Yang was still in a state of mind, Xiao Chuo hesitated, and finally took the initiative to ask questions.

Liu Yang heard the question, nodded, shook his head again, pondered for a while, but reminded: "The turmoil in the imperial court has been going on for several months, and it still continues. Be careful, don't be caught by others. Your Majesty is determined to reform the bureaucracy, and it will be useless to persuade anyone. Anyone who commits a crime will not be able to escape!"

"I know!" Seeing Liu Yang's solemn expression, Xiao Chuo also nodded thoughtfully, and replied.

"Your Majesty wants to reform the administration of officials. It should be a good thing for the country and the people. Your Majesty seems to have a different opinion?" Xiao Chuo asked softly.

Regarding this, Liu Yang was silent for a while, before he said leisurely: "Do you also think that I am soft-hearted, pedantic and cowardly?"

"I don't dare!" Suddenly hearing this, Xiao Chuo's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly got up and leaned over to express.

Seeing her nervous appearance, Liu Yang smiled, stretched out his hand to her, and sighed softly: "Don't I know the harm of incompetent officials? For those who are corrupt, abuse power, and bully the king I wish I could get rid of all the silverfish of the people!
It's just that His Majesty's use of such drastic means to engage in implicated and imprisoned people is just like the autumn wind sweeping over fallen leaves.However, there must be injustices in every large prison, especially if the two divisions of the imperial city and Wude are rampant, which not only destroys the legal system, but also loses the hearts of officials.

There are so many legal systems in the big man, all of which are perfected by His Majesty bit by bit, but he himself does not seem to have much confidence, and always likes to go his own way, using such crude and direct means to solve problems, hoping to solve the problem with the most painful and eye-catching way. way, to warn the world.

What is the use of legislation if it is not in accordance with the laws of the country?The emperor professes the constitution of heaven, and the truth is true. However, if the emperor does not pay attention to the legal system and tramples on it wantonly, then who will take the Dahan legal pawn seriously?
The deterrent effect of murder is naturally significant, and I am not opposed to killing corrupt officials, but His Majesty hates him too deeply, punishes him too severely, and acts too hastily.

According to this method, even if all the corrupt officials are killed and the Han dynasty is in chaos, what good will it do for the country and the people? "

Liu Yang's heartfelt words had obviously been held back in his heart for a long time, and he did not dare to tell outsiders that even if he took the risk of persuading Emperor Liu today, it would be very conservative, and even so, it made Emperor Liu furious.Some things in my heart can only be uttered quickly here by Xiao Chuo. This is the trust of the prince that Xiao Chuo has gained over the years.

"I really don't know that His Highness has so many worries and such a heavy burden in his heart!" Xiao Chuo's soft eyes, with a hint of distress, said: "These words, have you spoken to Your Majesty today?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yang frowned, opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Chuo with inquiry: "What do you mean? You all know that I have appealed to His Majesty today?"

Xiao Chuo lowered his head and said softly: "More than that, I also know that His Highness has been reprimanded by His Majesty, and it has spread in the palace."

Hearing what she said, Liu Yang was stunned for a long time before he said with a wry smile: "It's so fast! It's said that the walls are deep in the palace and the guards are strict, but there seems to be nothing to do with the rumors!"

With a word of emotion, Liu Yang said sadly: "These days, there are countless ministers who come to me because of fear, and they all hope that I can dissuade your majesty. However, your majesty is not only the son of heaven, but also my father. A son, can he go against his father's will?"

"But His Royal Highness still speaks!" Xiao Chuo said.

"Yes!" Liu Yang sighed, briefly explained the situation and results of Chui Gongdian's persuasion today, and then asked, "Tell me, is it right or wrong for me to speak today?"

Regarding this question, Xiao Chuo looked very serious, thought about it seriously, and then said: "There are both advantages and disadvantages!"

"Can it be beneficial?" Liu Yang was a little surprised, as if in his opinion, there were only disadvantages.

Xiao Chuo calmly analyzed for Liu Yang: "It is needless to say more about this disadvantage. Your Highness hastily remonstrated, violated His Majesty's will, annoyed His Majesty, and caused reprimand. However, judging from His Majesty's reaction and disposal, although his old man He was sullen for a while, but he didn't really get angry with His Highness, he just reprimanded him.

This benefit is naturally in the hearts of the people. When the court situation is urgent, the officials are terrified, and the hearts of the people are uneasy, lest they be questioned and beheaded.At this time, His Highness can risk being criticized by His Majesty, and stand up to speak for his ministers and workers, which fully demonstrates the responsibility of the Crown Prince.

Your Highness is already known for being tolerant and tolerant, after this incident, the internal and external officials will be more convinced of His Highness."

After Xiao Chuo finished speaking, Liu Yang glanced at her unexpectedly, his eyelids twitched a few times, and said, "I didn't think about all this, but I just couldn't bear to see this court hall become a terrifying world. Those who are suffering and ask to retire, don't know who they are, how can they look like a scene of a peaceful world.

Today, I received a lot of resignations from officials of various ministries and yamen, each with hidden secrets and vague words, but I know that they are just scared and would rather not be officials!
I still have to get them together, try to calm them down, and get them back to their jobs.I am not afraid that there will be no one available in the court, but I am afraid that I will neglect state affairs and public affairs, and I am afraid that His Majesty will execute them all for this reason!Keeping yourself safe and fulfilling your duties may be just dangerous, and there will always be a day in the past.

However, if you are ready to move and act rashly, you will only lead to disaster!Your Majesty often says not to ask crimes with words, to punish people who do not engage in teaching, not to punish one's heart, but..."

Liu Yang didn't finish his sentence, but that long sigh already explained everything.

"Your Highness, forgive me for talking too much!" Seeing that Liu Yang was full of worries and couldn't get rid of them, Xiao Chuo thought for a while, and said proactively, "Are you worrying a little bit?"

"How to say?" Liu Yang looked at her.

Xiao Chuo said: "It is true that the court is full of terror, but a few days ago, my concubine went to Shangqing to observe and offer incense, passing by the market and the streets, and saw that Luoyang is still prosperous, the people live in peace, live and work happily, those who are the best to use their power to show off and steal The slippery low-level officials are also extraordinarily peaceful, and the market is peaceful and peaceful."

When Xiao Chuo said this, Liu Yang's expression also changed a little, and he became more thoughtful.Seeing this, Xiao Chuo continued: "Maybe Your Highness, you shouldn't just stare at the palace and court, the streets and alleys of Luoyang, the people's livelihood in the city, maybe you can relieve your worries a little bit."

"Your words have something in common with what your Majesty said!" Liu Yang pondered for a moment, then sighed: "Speaking of which, it has been more than half a year since I returned to Luoyang, and I haven't gone to see the current city of Luoyang. How about it, it's time to go out to the palace for a stroll!"

"Your Highness is wise!" Seeing Liu Yang's melancholy eased, Xiao Chuo smiled a little, and said: "I want to come, Your Majesty will be very happy to hear what His Highness has done.

And His Highness should not speak more on this matter in the future, and it is necessary to know that too much is too late.Otherwise, if His Majesty is completely annoyed, it will be of no benefit to His Majesty, nor will it help the improvement of the court situation! "

Hearing this, Liu Yang smiled, with a rare sense of relief on his face, looked at her, and said, "Why, are you teaching me how to do things?"

"I dare not!" Xiao Chuo lowered his head.

"It's okay!" Liu Yang waved his hands and said, "Since you have spoken, let's finish. What do you think I should do?"

Seeing that Liu Yang didn't seem to be joking, Xiao Chuo hesitated a little, and said in a low voice: "I really dare not teach His Highness, His Highness has already pointed out to you what to do, to stabilize the government and appease people's hearts, that's all."

"You can see clearly!" Liu Yang murmured softly, but after talking with Xiao Chuo, his mood really improved a lot, and the expression on his face was no longer so bitter and bitter.

The stagnation in my heart was relieved a little, and my appetite came up. Just as I was about to pass on the meal, I saw Wang Yue, the servant, came in and whispered: "Your Highness, Princess Huaiyang is asking to see you!"

"Fifth Sister?" Liu Yang was a little surprised when he heard the words: "It's so late, what is she doing here?"

Wang Yue carefully glanced at Liu Yang, seeing that his mood seemed to have recovered a lot, and then said: "Shicai, the son-in-law Zhang Jing was arrested by the Wu Desi's subordinates, everyone in Gyeonggi knows that Su Cheng led the team himself."
