I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 237 My Advice and A Suggestion (Please Subscribe)
There is a government office, but there is still a shortage of people. These people in the hall alone are not enough to support the operation of the Menxia Temple.

Before the framework is set up, there are not many things that can be done, but people cannot be idle, and only those who are fully active can be called talents.

"Yu Wuyou, I will draft a warrant for you later, and with this warrant, I will arrange these people brought from Changyi Kingdom to a suitable government office as soon as possible."

"promise!"

Most of the people who came to Chang'an City from Changyi Kingdom were artisans recruited by Liu He in Changyi Kingdom, so their destination was naturally the examination room.

The rest of the people are mainly the servants Liu He used in Changyi Palace, and they will be arranged in corresponding positions in Weiyang Palace through the Shaofu just like the first batch of Changyi people.

"Dai Zong, you Lang officials are still not familiar with Chang'an and Weiyang Palace, so you can't do anything yet, go to Guang Luxun Zhang Anshi, and ask him to send someone to take you to the various government offices under Menxia Temple, so that you can do what you want. There are many."

"promise!"

Dai Zong and others, like Yu Wuyou, were the Lang Zhong and the audience of the Emperor when he was in Qiandi. After arriving in Chang'an, they were all promoted to Lang Guan, and their ranks were all raised to six hundred stones.

Because Menxia Temple is not yet in operation, they only have the status of Lang Guan, and naturally they are still under the jurisdiction of Guang Luxun.

As the Son of Heaven, Liu He doesn't have many privileges, but at least Zhang Anshi can take care of these officials and let them understand the situation of Chang'an and Weiyang Palace first.

Soon, Menxia Temple will be officially in operation, and then they can come to Menxia Temple to work immediately.

Freely appointing and dismissing officials in the government is the privilege of establishing a government. Even if the big man really takes the imperial examination in the future, he can bypass the examination through this method. There are not many people, so it is not harmful.

"Jian Kou and Liu Xiang, your identities are now Changyi Lang, and Changyi Lang will also be responsible for the guarding of Menxia Temple in the future. You will also take this responsibility in the future, which is equivalent to the principal and deputy of Menxia Temple. gone."

"No." Jian Kou and Liu Xiang agreed in unison.

"Although this Menxia Temple has not officially opened yet, I have a few words to tell everyone first."

"First, I would like to give you a piece of advice. Chang'an City is not like Changyi, it is a world of flowers and flowers, especially the North City. There are everything, running dogs and cockfights, hooking up with prostitutes, only you can't think of it, without you, you can't find it, don't bother." Be dazzled, pierced by some villain's sugar arrows."

"You know that I hate corrupt officials the most in my life. I bumped into them. People, real grass, five punishments... are all possible!"

Liu He spoke indifferently, which made Yu Wuyou and the others feel a bit of chill.

"The second is to give you another opinion. I have taught you a lot of skills in the past few years. I hope you can use these skills in the right way. Don't waste time, but seize the day."

After Liu He finished speaking, after a short pause, the Lang officials responded neatly.

"Gong Qing, I have discussed with the general, Chang Yilang can expand the number of people to three hundred according to the original number of people."

"Really?" Gong Sui asked in surprise.

Today, including Liu Xiang and Jian Kou, Changyi Lang only has 30 people, which is too tight to use and often requires two shifts. The Lang guards are already a little tired and need more people to rotate.

Liu He nodded.

"Do you want to recruit Changyi people from Yubayashi Lang or Qimen Lang, or recruit Changyi people from Chang'an City?"

Liu He thought for a while, waved his hand, and said, "Both of these methods are useless. Gong Qing personally went to tell Zhang Anshi to order him to directly recruit a group of people from Changyi. Picked out people."

Liu He has already become the emperor, but he is still worried that someone will mix sand in Changyi's doctor, so he must be careful.

"promise."

Everything was properly arranged, Yu Wuyou waited for the young people to resign first, and went to perform their responsibilities, but Liu He did not leave, he took the two old bones, Gong Sui and Wang Shi, and wandered around the temple under the gate.

As I walked and watched, I came to a quiet courtyard.The yard is not big, and there is a thick persimmon tree in the middle.

At this time, the leaves are falling slowly, and although there are persimmons like little red lanterns hanging on the tips, they are still a little lonely.

Liu He looked up at the tree and the persimmons on it, and couldn't help but lament that time passes by.

"Gong Qing, Wang Qing, in your opinion, are the poems in the "Book of Songs" better, or the poems collected from the Yuefu?"

The two old ministers were taken aback for a moment, never thinking that the emperor would talk about poetry first when he came to this place of refuge.

Wang Shi came back to his senses first. He remembered the bamboo slips he found in the salary house, so he said: "The poems of the Yuefu are mostly sung by the people in the countryside, so it is naturally the "Book of Songs" edited by Confucius. Even better."

"The old minister agrees with the prince's opinion."

There are odes to Fengya in the Book of Songs, and the national style in it also comes from the folk.

"In Wang Fu's opinion, who is better in Song of Feng Ya?"

"Naturally praises the greatest majesty."

Liu He didn't answer right away. Song is the music used in the sacrifices and ceremonies of the Chaotang Ancestral Temple. At this time, the big Han is naturally the most honorable.

But Wang Shi and Gong Sui may not have imagined that after thousands of years, the national style will be more respected by people, and the same is true for Yuefu poems.

The reason is that the common people prefer it—any dynasty has an end, but the common people do not.

"Boundless falling trees are rustling, and the endless Yangtze River is rolling in."

Liu He looked at the falling leaves, read two lines of Lao Du's poem, and then asked: "Gong Qing, Wang Qing, what do you think of these two lines of poetry?"

"I have the feeling of seeing all the vicissitudes of the world and reading the ups and downs of life." Gong Sui replied after savoring it carefully.

"Old-fashioned and bold, is it written by His Majesty?" Wang Shi asked tentatively.

"Hahaha, I didn't write it, it was an old man I met in the palace a few days ago, and I heard him say it."

How could there be such a literary talent in the palace, but also an anonymous old man?Gong Sui didn't think there was any difference, but Wang Shi, who studied the scrolls copied by the emperor day and night, was even more surprised.

Today, the Son of Heaven can read scriptures and write poems, so he is too all-rounder.

Thinking of this, Wang Shi reread those two lines of the poem several times, even questioned the words several times, and finally remembered them secretly in his heart.

"Your Majesty, are there only two lines in this poem?"

"It's not really..." After Liu He finished speaking, he recited the whole poem from beginning to end, "Boundless fallen trees are rustling, and the endless Yangtze River is rolling in. Thousands of miles of sad autumn are often guests, and a hundred years of illness is alone on the stage."

At the end of the four-line poem, it naturally attracted a sigh of relief from the two veteran officials.

After sending out this exclamation, Liu He said to Fan Ke who had been following him all the time: "I would like to say a few words to the two lovers. You should guard outside the courtyard and no one else is allowed to come in."

"promise."

After Fan Ke went out, Liu He sat down on the floor in the porch, and asked Wang Shi and Gong Qing to sit down as well.

The three monarchs and ministers were finally able to face each other: Wang Shi and Gong Sui were the people Liu He relied on the most, but they hadn't played this role yet.

Gathering in Chang'an today is a good time to play a role.

Liu He knew that the two old people were representatives of being old and vigorous, so he remembered the two lines of Lao Du's poem when he saw the persimmon tree with fallen leaves and fruit.

"You two lovers, we finally meet in Chang'an. I can only cruelly take away your family happiness and ask you to assist me in doing great things."

Wang Shi and Gong Sui hurriedly thanked him, but said they dared not.

"Now, the top priority is to recruit some talents to come to Menxia Temple. I have a list here, and I want Ergong to help me refer to it."

Wang Shi and Gong Sui felt a little strange. The emperor lived in Changyi for a long time, and he didn't know much about the court and Chang'an before. Why did he draw up a list so quickly?

Although there were doubts, the two did not raise any objections, but listened quietly.Soon, Liu He uttered his first name, and the two old guys were so shocked that they were speechless just by this name.
