I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 304 Father Zhong, Don't Blame Me for Spreading Rumors, It's About People's Hearts (Subscribe)

"What happened in Chang'an City this afternoon?" Liu He asked.

"There are not too many changes, and the situation is not too different from what His Majesty expected." After Dai Zong finished speaking, he reported the current situation of Chang'an City to the emperor.

First of all, it is naturally the situation of the several government offices in the prime minister's mansion. From morning to sunset, it is true that less than [-]% of the officials are in the government office, and all political affairs are at a standstill.

Secondly, Huo Guang, Ren Gong, Le Cheng and Tian Yannian and others were quite peaceful, they never showed up, let alone went out.

In the end, the rumors about "Tianzi Qi is sick and the general" spread in Chang'an city, but they were still only circulated among officials.

The people in Beicheng Guo didn't notice this.

Even the "battle" that took place at the Great Court Council the day before had not caused any splashes among the people.

The people in Beichengguo have to run around for their livelihood all day long. How can they be in the mood to pay attention to this matter?

Liu He listened silently, once again reviewing in his mind what he was going to do next.

In the affairs of the world, there is no firmness that can't be broken, but speed can't be broken.

Just like the farce of "retirement from the court" planned by Huo Guang, the longer it drags on, the more passive Liu He will be as the emperor.

Then, Liu He will be even faster.

It is best to let the "dismissal of the dynasty" disappear invisibly before the people in Beichengguo find out.

Thinking of this, Liu He no longer hesitated in his heart.

Today, the five edicts to Bingji are ready to be issued, and they will be sent to various government offices tomorrow morning, and they will be posted and announced in conspicuous places in Chang'an.

And this was only Liu He's first means of counterattack.

In the afternoon of tomorrow, Liu He will "conquer in person" and "sneak attack" Huo Dang's "passes" in Chang'an City, and let them see what it means to act resolutely.

In addition to these bright things, Liu He also prepared a lot of little tricks in the dark, which were suitable for arrangements on this dark and stormy night.

"Dai Zong, send someone to release this news tomorrow..."

"General Huo Guang is old and frail, he occasionally catches a cold, he has been ill for a long time, and it is difficult to do anything."

"When it spreads, you can add some innocuous things about drinking and sex. This is what the common people like to hear most."

Then, Liu He uttered the "model" of the rumors he had made up. After a lot of embellishment, Huo Guang was portrayed as a powerful minister whose body was hollowed out by wine and lust.

If it was in the past, Liu He would definitely laugh with Dai Zong and others, and even feel that this move is a bit despicable.

But at this moment, the Son of Heaven's face submerged in the darkness did not show any jokes, and his voice was extremely calm.

I also don't want to do such a thing, it was all forced by Father Zhong, so don't blame me.

"Alright, Dai Zong, repeat it to me."

"promise."

Dai Zong recounted the rumor fabricated by the emperor just now, and added a lot of details "unauthorizedly", making this already highly reminiscent rumor even more vivid.

This is the vitality of rumors - it is a woman who is free to dress up, and can add whatever she wants.

I don't know what kind of person the general will become in the hearts of the people in Chang'an City from today on.

"Okay, very good, very good, just spread the word."

"promise!"

With the help of those Changyi orphans, Dai Zong was sure to spread the matter to the point where the world knew about it within three days.

This is only Liu He's first move to win the hearts of the people, and he will use the "Chang'an Monthly".

According to the system established in the Great Court Conference, "Chang'an Monthly" will be published on the first and fifteenth days of each month, twice a month.

Today is the twelfth of October, and in three days it will be the fifteenth of October. At that time, the first issue of "Chang'an Monthly" will be officially distributed and posted.

"Li Zhang, can the first issue of "Chang'an Monthly" be distributed and posted on time?" Liu He asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the block has been engraved and can be printed tomorrow, and it will be distributed and posted on time three days later."

"This is a groundbreaking new thing, and there must be no mistakes." Liu He said.

"Weichen understands that there will be no mistakes."

Liu He nodded. The articles published in the first edition of "Chang'an Monthly" were all reviewed by Liu He in advance. Naturally, there were no major problems. This question was all out of caution.

Originally, Liu He wanted to publish some articles about the "dismissal of Yamen" in the "Chang'an Monthly", but there are only three days before the fifteenth day, and it may be too late to change the engraving now.

"This is the first time that "Chang'an Monthly" is published. We don't want to be meritorious but not to blame. It is enough for the people of Chang'an to be familiar with and accept it." Liu He said.

"According to His Majesty's instructions, the newsroom has negotiated with every wine shop and restaurant in Beichengguo, asking them to consign "Chang'an Monthly Newsletter" on their behalf." Li Zhang replied.

"How much does one cost?"

"Ten cents a share. In order to make wine shops and restaurants work harder, all the money earned from selling newspapers will go to them for the time being, and they will be given an extra ten cents."

In Chang'an, at most ten yuan can buy a bowl of bean rice and a few dishes of zhishou, even the northern city can be regarded as a low price.

Whether it is rice paper or "Chang'an Monthly", they are novel things, and there will be people with good things flocking to them.

"How many copies were printed this time?"

"The Printing Workshop doesn't have any other books to print right now. If we try our best, we can print a thousand copies."

Liu He was a little surprised, this number was much more than he imagined.

"Yes, this amount is enough."

"The first issue of "Chang'an Monthly" will not be used this time, but the second issue of "Chang'an Monthly" must be carefully planned to provide some assistance for me to cut Huo."

"promise!"

Liu He pondered for a while looking at the lights in the distance, and already had some ideas, and then slowly arranged them.

“[School Models] published an article praising Cai Yi.”

Now, Cai Yi stood up in the hall and sang against Huo Guang, so naturally he would be rewarded.

And this is not just a commendation to Cai Yi, but also an expression of the emperor's attitude, letting the people of the world know what behaviors can be recognized by the emperor in the court.

"On [Scholars Model], there is an article praising Xiahou's family."

"Xiahou's house? Is it Xiahou Sheng, the former Changxin Shaofu?" Li Zhang was a little surprised. Wasn't this old man severely punished by the emperor not long ago?
"Well, aside from other things, Xiahou's family has three great Confucian scholars, Xiahou Shichang, Xiahou Sheng, and Xiahoujian, who should be commended."

"No!" Li Zhang was no longer puzzled.

In fact, Liu He was thinking about more than that, and because Xia Housheng and Xia Houjian were helping Wang Ji to adjudicate the scriptures, praising them at this time can make them feel more favored by the king.

"[Chaotang Discussion] can start to encourage the subjects of the world to write letters to me, and the process of writing letters should be clearly written."

"promise!"

Yesterday, Wang Ji had already sent someone to temporarily build a bus study room under Beique. After this article was published, the subjects of the world could immediately write a letter to the emperor.

"[North City Anecdote] You can talk about the Guo Xianheng Restaurant in Beicheng, so that the business of Guan Er and Zhang San will be better."

Speaking of this, there was finally some warmth in Liu He's icy words, and this warmth made the surrounding night recede a little.

"On [Yuefu Caishi], the song "There Are Beautiful Women in the North" written by Li Yannian, the former captain of Xielu, was published."

After saying this, Liu He slowly read this short song.

"There are beauties in the north, who are peerless and independent. Once you look at the city of Qingren, then you look at the country of Qingren. Would you rather not know the city and the country? Beautiful women are hard to come by."

"Li Zhang, Dai Zong, what do you think of this song?"

"The sincerity and sincerity overflow in the poetry." Dai Zong said.

"Simplicity is better than complexity, and fiction is realistic. If it is published in Chang'an Monthly, it will definitely become the talk of the people after dinner." Li Zhang said.

Liu He nodded in satisfaction in the dark. The purpose of publishing this short song in "Chang'an Monthly" is not just to let the people of Chang'an have more talk about it?

This move has great meaning, but Li Zhang and Dai Zong can't see through it for a while.

The reason is simple, this short song has a great relationship with Liu He.

Li Yannian, the former captain of Xie Lv, was exterminated by his clan because his younger brother Li Jiyi raped the harem.

However, he has another identity, that is Li Guangli's younger brother.

At that time, Li Guangli's army had not returned from attacking Dawan, so his family was spared for the time being.But then Li Guangli was also annihilated because he was defeated and surrendered to the Huns.

Therefore, the Li family became one of the few families in the history of the Han Dynasty that was exterminated twice.

Li Guangli, Li Yannian, and Li Ji are all Mrs. Li's brothers.This Mrs. Li was Liu He's grandmother whom she had never met.

Both Li Guangli and Li Yannian are Liu He's uncles. After all, they are the relatives of today's emperor—it's a pity that they have already died.

However, although a person is dead, it does not mean that he cannot function.

The beauty praised by Li Yannian in the song "There Are Beautiful Women in the North" is naturally none other than the sister of the Li brothers, Mrs. Li, Empress Xiaowu who is the favorite of Emperor Xiaowu.

In the past, after Mrs. Li died of illness, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty missed her very much.

One day, after Emperor Wu dreamed of Mrs. Li, he really wanted to see Mrs. Li again.

In order to realize this wish, Emperor Xiaowu, who was quite afraid of witchcraft, even found an alchemist to set up an altar to summon the soul of Mrs. Li.

That night, Emperor Xiaowu saw the shadow of the candle shaking in the curtain, and vaguely saw the figure of Mrs. Li approaching, but leaving slowly after a while.

In the end, some people wrote down these few words sadly: "Is it evil? Isn't it evil? Just look at it, why is it so late?"

It can be seen that the resolute and suspicious Emperor Xiaowu expressed such emotion, which shows the depth of his longing.

After the abolished prince was abolished for plotting to rebel against Queen Wei, Emperor Xiaowu never established a queen again.

However, Mrs. Li was buried in Maoling with the ceremony of a queen, and I can see Emperor Xiaowu's deep affection for Mrs. Li.

After Emperor Xiaowu's visit, Huo Guang honored Mrs. Li as a sacrifice in the ancestral temple according to the edict left by him, and added the title of Empress Xiaowu.

From this calculation, Changyi King Liu Wei is also considered a direct son, and even if Changyi King Liu He is not the heir of Emperor Xiaozhao, he is still a direct descendant.

Today, Liu He wants to publish this short song in "Chang'an Monthly", not only to remind the world of Mrs. Li's beauty, not only to remind the world of Emperor Xiaowu and Mrs. Li's sincere love, but also to remind the world Think of "Ms. Li is Emperor Xiaowu".

There are too many articles to do here.

Maybe one day, there will be a "Great Ritual Conference" by a big man.

This is not just to show one's filial piety, but also to further confirm one's own legitimacy.

It is always useful to plant a nail first.

Next, Liu He ordered other articles to be published in the "Chang'an Monthly".

[Rural Interests] It tells the auspicious story of the discovery of Jiaolong in Changyi this year and the capture of a thousand-year-old Cai in Xiadu.

[Sansuke Fengwu] will detail the practice of a sweet called "tangyuan", and add the meaning of reunion to the glutinous rice balls from the perspective of human relations.

[The affairs of the county and the country] Let's talk about the outstanding people of Changyi. After farming with the new farm tools made by the emperor, the grain harvested has increased by more than [-]% compared with last year.

【Copy of the Western Regions】Praises Su Wu and Fu Jiezi's mission to the Western Regions.

……

Each of these titles represents a piece of chronicle, and it also represents a major event that is happening in the big man.

It seems that this "Chang'an Monthly" is only a topic of conversation for the people of Chang'an for the time being, but over time, it may become a sharp weapon to influence people's hearts.

In half an hour, Liu He finalized the memorandum to be published in "Chang'an Monthly" next month.

By this time, it was almost the time of Haishi.

The sky was much darker than when we first came to Danchi.

As night fell, the autumn wind became more bitter.

Although Liu He was wearing a very thick robe and a large cloak over the robe, the chill from the north of the Great Wall still permeated every hole.

It seems that nothing is missing.

I don't know if this dark rumor and the "Chang'an Monthly" on the bright side will bring some small "surprise surprises" to Zhong's father.

"Let's write the composition according to this arrangement first. I will tell you what I think of."

"promise!"

These two things are "conspiracies" behind the scenes, and tomorrow's "conspiracy" during the day will be the highlight.

"Yu Wuyou, have you made arrangements for my going out of the palace tomorrow?"

"Your Majesty, Yu Wuyou is not here..."

What Liu He heard was Dai Zong's voice, he was a little surprised, but soon came back to his senses.

Yu Wuyou is really not here.

Where is the Lang Guan, whom I trust and be close to the most, at this moment?

Liu He suddenly realized that he seemed to know a lot less about Yu Wuyou and the others, and he didn't even know where they lived after they came to Chang'an.

Just like Dai Zong and Li Zhang behind him, Liu He didn't know where they lived - whether it was Beichengguo, Qili, or Shangguanli.

What kind of house do you live in?
Is the money and food distributed enough for daily expenses?
Did the relatives in Changyi Kingdom receive Chang'an?

Did they encounter any difficulties in Chang'an City?
……

Liu He ignored all these things one by one.

After the pro-government, I must give them all what they deserve.

"It's my memory that's wrong. Dai Qing should arrange the things for tomorrow." Liu He said to himself.

"Weichen has already told Xue Qi that the car battle and Lang Wei are all ready." Dai Zong made sure in his heart, and then said, "Your Majesty will leave the palace at Maoshi, first go to Dasinong Temple, and then go to Xicheng Guo Taixue."

"Okay, it's a good arrangement."

"Your Majesty, do you really not need to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and Taichang Temple?" Dai Zong asked again.

"The county officials who are waiting for the report will be gathered in Taixue, so there is no need to go to the prime minister's mansion; and Taichang Temple doesn't have too many government affairs to deal with immediately, so it doesn't matter."

"The most important thing now is the collection of rent and taxes. This is something that Da Si Nong should take care of. Therefore, I will first resettle Da Si's farmland for a long time."

Well placed, naturally not the literal meaning, or many times more terrifying than the literal meaning.

If you are obedient, you will continue to be a big farmer; if you are not obedient, you will be a big farmer.

"I understand." Dai Zong raised another objection.

At this time, a round of bright moon gradually rose from the position to the north of Dongcheng Guo.

The almost round bright moon climbed up little by little, as bright and clear as a complete white jade plate.

Not only like a jade plate, but also like a jade rabbit and a jade toad.

Soon, the slowly rising moon began to cast a cool light on the earth.

Under this light, the outline of the entire Chang'an City gradually emerged.

For some reason, Liu He felt more and more that the city was like a lying monster.

Quiet, cold, unsmiling, cannibalism without spit out bones.

Chilling.

And Weiyang Palace is the head of this giant beast.

Now, standing on the height of Weiyang Palace, Liu He felt as if he had merged with this giant beast.

Aversion to cold all over the body.

Liu He couldn't help tightening the cloak on his body.

"I'm going back to the palace, you guys should rest early, there are still many things to do tomorrow."

"promise!"

Speechless all night.

……

Before Maoshi the next morning, Liu He first met Bingji, who was in charge of the book, in the Greenhouse Hall.

The latter reported to the emperor the classification of chapters received in the Shangshu Office the day before.

It's all unimportant things.

In just two days, I haven't seen too many important chapters yet.

With Bingji, Zhang Anshi and others sitting in the battle, and the authority of the emperor, Liu He felt that he could gradually control the government in his hands.

It's just that the current timing is a little sensitive, and Liu He can't make any mistakes.

Therefore, if Huo Guang would like to stay in the position of Assistant Minister for a longer period of time so that Liu He can be more calm, that would be a great thing.

This is also Liu He's last chance for the general.

Because the chapters brought by Bingji were not many and not very important, Liu He read them all in less than a quarter of an hour.

"I don't have anything to say. Bing Qing will deal with these matters according to the previous system."

"promise!"

"Bingqing, I have something to ask you."

"My minister is all ears."

"I'm going out of the palace today to inspect Da Sinong and Taixue. Is there some Meng Lang and madness in this move?"

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven of the Great Han Dynasty, and Da Sinong and Taixue are both the government offices of the Great Han Dynasty. It is only natural for His Majesty to inspect it in person."

"It's just that Zhongfu may be even more displeased."

"Your Majesty only needs to consider whether it will benefit the world and the people. It doesn't matter whether the general is happy or not."

"Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joys later." Liu He said these words silently.

Bingji must have never heard this sentence before, he was stunned for a moment, and then he said with some appreciation: "Your Majesty has the world in mind, has the demeanor of a wise monarch, and I admire you very much."

Liu He immediately felt very happy in his heart, and the last bit of frustration dissipated.

Now that it's settled, just go ahead and do it.

As long as it is for the world, for the big man.What is there to worry about?

"Okay, then I will leave the palace immediately!"

At the time of Mao, the emperor's chariot was mighty, and he drove out from Beique towards Jiadi, Beique, which is located in the northeast corner of Chang'an, where the Dasinong Temple is located.

The emperor's counterattack came.
