Chapter 62 It's My Turn
Without making everyone in the Guardian Palace wait too long, Cao Cao entered first.

He was naked to the waist, tied up and dragged to kneel in the hall.

Cao Cao knocked his head to the ground with a gloomy expression on his face.

Before he came in, he smelled a smell of alcohol, and when he knelt down in the hall, the whole hall smelled of alcohol.

Liu Bian stared at him coldly, and said, "You did a good job!"

Cao Cao's face was livid, seemingly angry, and suddenly hiccupped, and said anxiously: "I am guilty."

Liu Bian frowned, and saw Yuan Ji, who was wearing a Hou suit, enter the door.

Yuan Ji walked in and looked directly at Liu Bian above the main hall. This was the first time he saw Liu Bian after he ascended the throne.

Glancing at Ding Gong from the corner of his eye, Liu Hong, Wang Yun and the others stepped forward to salute neither humble nor overbearing: "My minister An Guoting Hou Yuan Ji, see Your Majesty."

Liu Bian nodded and said, "Excuse me."

He found that Yuan Ji had never looked at Cao Cao from the beginning to the end.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yuan Ji withdrew his hand and stood still.

Liu Bian looked at Cao Cao, who was shirtless, and glanced at Yuan Ji, thinking about how to deal with this matter.

The status of concubines is very low at this time, even lower than that of servants.It stands to reason that it is not a big deal to have a broken shoe, the key is that this is the concubine of the Yuan family.

Aristocratic families pay attention to family status and need to be decent.

Xun You looked at Cao Cao's shirtless body and wearing underpants, and made a guess in his heart. Seeing the quiet scene, he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the Qiang people are making trouble, and the three assistants are in danger. I suggest that you send Captain Cao to lead the forbidden army to help your Majesty." Pay attention to."

Liu Bian glanced at him, knew what he meant, and said calmly, "What do Yuan Qing's family think?"

With a calm expression, Yuan Ji raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I think that with the imminent amnesty, it might be inappropriate to question my close ministers."

Cao Cao knocked his head to the ground, his long and narrow eyes were filled with coldness, and he groaned coldly in his heart.

Xun You felt something was wrong when he heard it, and suddenly realized, he quickly said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the salary should be demoted as a punishment."

Liu Bian was startled when he heard the words, looked at Xun You's expression, and came to understand in his heart.

Yuan Ji seemed to be pleading for Cao Cao, but he mentioned amnesty, alluding to Yuan Shao!

'Whose method is this?Is this Yuan Ji's? '

Liu Bian thought about it in his heart, and he had to say that it was clever. Was this a one-for-one exchange between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao?

"Yuan Qing's house?" Liu Bian looked at Yuan Ji.

Yuan Jidao: "I would like to obey the will."

Pushed it to me again?
Liu Bian frowned, and immediately said: "Then follow the law, hand it over to the Tingwei Mansion, and pull it out."

The imperial guard strode in and dragged Cao Cao out.

From the beginning to the end, Cao Cao didn't say a word.

When Cao Cao was dragged away, Liu Bian's mind changed.

The Yuan family's methods followed one after another without any pause, so disturbing that he had no time to carry out his plan.

Slowly, he narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled and said to Yuan Ji: "Yuan Qing's family, sit down, I called Qing's family into the palace late at night, because I want to chat with Qing's family about Dong Zhuo's affairs."

Yuan Ji sat down, looking as usual, and said: "Your Majesty, the Qiang people have committed crimes against Sanfu, it is inappropriate to transfer Dong Zhuo to Beijing at this time, and he should be ordered to lead the troops to respond."

Liu Bian said nonchalantly: "There is no need to make a fuss for mere Qiang people. Yuan Qing's family, the Yellow Turban rebellion army in Qingzhou is getting more and more fierce. I consider going to Qing's family to help Zhu Qing's family raise troops and raise food."

Yuan Ji was very puzzled by this arrangement, paused, raised his hand and said, "The minister leads the decree."

Liu Bian nodded and said, "Let's leave tomorrow, the Qing family should rest early."

Yuan Ji was stunned, his doubts became heavier, he stood up and said, "I will leave."

Ding Gong, Liu Hong, Wang Yun, Xun You and others looked at Liu Bian driving Yuan Ji away like this, and they were equally puzzled.

As soon as Yuan Ji left, Liu Bian said: "Pan Yin, send an order early tomorrow morning, ordering Yuan Kai to go to Bingzhou in person to persuade Dong Zhuo to enter Beijing."

Now, it's my turn to act!

Ding Gong, Liu Hong and others were stunned, and sent Yuan Kai to persuade Dong Zhuo?

Liu Bian didn't give these people time to think wildly, sat up straight, and said in a deep voice: "There are a few things that you need to do next."

Seeing Liu Bian's serious expression, everyone couldn't help bowing down as a sign of respectful listening to the hadith.

"First, fill in the six Cao Shangshu, He Yong, and Zheng Tai." Liu Bian said.

The crowd had no objection.

Shangshutai is subordinate to the Shaofu. Shangshutai has Shangshuling, Pushe, and then Shangshu. Therefore, Shangshu's official rank is very low, with a rank of six hundred stones.

"second,"

Liu Bian looked at them and said, "Promote Liu Cao Shangshu with a rank of [-] shi. Dismiss Shangshuling, Pushe, etc."

Ding Gong, Liu Hong, and Wang Yun were slightly startled as they listened.

You know, the salary rank of Jiuqing is only [-] shi a year, and the salary rank of Liu Cao Shangshu exceeds that of Jiuqing!

The mention of this status is too big!

Liu Bian had a panoramic view of their expressions, and said, "Third, comprehensively sort out the powers and responsibilities of all temples, officials, and government offices in the imperial court, and use Shangshutai to lead the country's government affairs, with the assistance of Jiuqing."

Ding Gong, Liu Hong, and Wang Yun were no longer slightly startled, but rather shocked!

In terms of jurisprudence, Jiuqing is the most important department of the imperial court, holding actual power.Although Shangshutai is a central organization, it is also the decision-making power. Is the emperor doing this to completely deprive Jiuqing of his power and centralize it in Shangshutai?
Xun You was calmer, because Liu Bian had talked with him before, and this was only preliminary, and the Sangong Mansion hadn't mentioned it yet.

At the same time, Xun You also understood Liu Bian's other intention in doing so.

The Yuan family's disciples and old officials occupied most of the court, so doing so could empty the Yuan family away!

No wonder Your Majesty wants to send Yuan Kai and Yuan Ji away. Suddenly, Xun You looked at Liu Bian from the corner of his eye, secretly admiring him.

"fourth,"

Liu Bian looked dignified, and said: "All the officials in the palace will be dismissed, and the existing officials will be arranged by your family. The official documents and edicts in the palace will be delivered by the servants."

Ding Gong, Liu Hong, Wang Yun, and Xun You didn't have any objections to this. In the past, the twelve permanent servants and other officials controlled the palace and formed the "Waitai" to fight against Shangshutai. The party has been fighting for many years.

"fifth,"

Liu Bian stared at them and said, "Stop the Shaofu and set up the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Shaofu should be divided into Shangshutai, Jiuqing, and Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Ding Gong, Liu Hong and others listened silently, and agreed to this.

The responsibilities of the Shaofu are mainly in the palace, and some of them overlap with the Dasinong and the Sangongfu. As for the Shangshutai to which it belongs, its actual status is far superior to that of the Shaofu.

Liu Bian pondered for a while, and said: "Sixth, stop the Southern Army, Northern Army, Qimen, etc., the capital will be guarded by the Habayashi Army, and the Imperial Palace will be in charge of the Imperial Army."

Everyone didn't speak. Before Huangfusong led troops into the capital, the Northern Army and the Southern Army were already in vain, that is to say, the Habayashi Army barely existed.

"seventh,"

Liu Bian's expression became more serious, and he said: "The North Temple Prison of Huangmen is located outside the palace, and it is dedicated to arresting criminals. It is not affiliated with Taige, and is not under the control of Sangong Mansion, Shangshutai, and Jiuqing."

Ding Gong panicked, looked up at Liu Bian, and said, "Your Majesty, the North Temple Prison of Huangmen..."

When the eunuchs were fighting with their relatives, the North Temple Prison of Huangmen played a role. Some court officials were arrested and entered the palace, and never came out again.

Liu Bian waved his hand to stop his words, and said: "I have made up my mind, you gentlemen will act according to the order, be sure to be safe."

Although the four of them had some doubts in their hearts, they looked at each other and raised their hands and said: "I will obey the order."

After Liu Bian finished speaking, he got up and left.

After exiting the side door, Cao Cao was kneeling under the lantern not far away.

Liu Bian walked over, looked at his very white and tender back, couldn't help but smiled and said, "Have you been tricked?"
