I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 380 The gradually chaotic situation

Li Gu was a little embarrassed by Deng Sui's words.

He didn't expect that he would hear such words at this time, and he didn't even hear any malice in these words.

This made Li Gu feel a little unnatural.

Naturally, he has been paying attention to the movements in the court these years and knows what Deng Sui has done over the years.

The commotion in the court also reflected Deng Sui's great efforts and Deng Sui's magnanimity.

But he didn't expect that the Queen Mother would be so generous.

"Your Majesty, there were many students back then."

"Are you scolding me?" Deng Sui sneered directly, "You are not the only one who has scolded me these years.

What you said back then was that I was a female and could not rule the world and cause natural disasters.

I really don’t know if what you are talking about is God’s will.

But now I am the great sage you call me. Although I am not satisfied with what I have done, I still have a clear conscience.

I am worthy of everyone, and I am worthy of the people of this great man.

In this case, what could you do if you angrily scolded me back then? "

Deng Sui's sneer made Li Gu fall into silence again. Li Gu did not expect to hear such a result.

But the last sneer made Li Gu wake up.

Looking at the smiles of Cai Lun and others around him, Li Gu seemed to understand why Deng Sui was able to reach this point.

After thinking about this, Li Gu also walked to Deng Sui's side and bowed slightly towards Deng Sui.

"The Queen Mother is right, the Queen Mother at this time is the saint of Wu Dahan.

But now that the Queen Mother has heard and seen these things, what is the Queen Mother's plan? "

"Wait!"

Deng Sui's words made Li Gu stunned again, but before he was about to speak, he suddenly reacted.

"That's right, the Queen Mother is in such a situation that she really can't do anything more.

And with His Majesty's intelligence, he would definitely come up with this method.

Use those wealthy families to fight against each other. "

Li Gu's words made Deng Sui very satisfied, and Deng Sui also asked Li Gu to go and prepare.

Waiting for her to return to the court in the future, she needs Li Gu to help him solve some problems.

At least

"I don't want people to scold me anymore in the future."

"The Queen Mother doesn't care?"

"I don't care, it's not that I can't hear you!"

Deng Sui's sneer made Li Gu laugh, then he bowed again and turned to leave.

Deng Sui also continued her journey later, and this time her trip went much smoother.

There are no longer so many messy things, and I have seen many truths in this world.

I saw those people in this world, for their own selfish desires, constantly robbing and guarding the people, sucking the flesh and blood of the people.

As Li Gu said, they have fame, merit and talent.

But if they don't do this, they will become a flash in the pan.

After the death of the elder, even if the heirs can use the glory of their fathers to embark on an official career, they will not be able to last long, and they will eventually follow the same path.

Therefore, in the end, they still have to go down the same path and continue to seize the people's support and support.

Once, twice, more and more wealthy families began to rise. Originally they wouldn't do this, but there are people behind it who are adding fuel to the fire.

Liu Long is a very smart person, he can find a glimmer of hope in desperate situations.

Taking advantage of the changes in the celestial phenomena, he directly performed a series of miracles, strengthened his prestige, and also issued a series of orders.

"Nowadays, there are constant natural disasters in the Han Dynasty, and I don't know what has caused God's wrath.

But as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, I must make some contributions to the people of the Han Dynasty.

Starting from today, the Central and Small Huangmen will be abolished and replaced by the Standing and Disciplined Assistants and the Dispatched and Disciplined Assistants, with a maximum of four people each, selected from among the officials!

At the same time, Queen Mother Deng once taught the eunuchs to read. Although this was a good move, it allowed the eunuchs to have cholera in the court.

I don't quite agree.

From today on, eunuchs are strictly prohibited from intervening in politics and serving as officials. The highest level of eunuchs they can do is to serve as "administrative orders" to help me issue documents and fill in edicts. "

Liu Chan first solved the possibility of eunuchs continuing to serve as officials, and then immediately ordered the rectification of the court, and established the Zhongshu Province to divide the rights from the Shangshutai.

All the officials of the Zhongshu Province were replaced by scholars, and the responsibility of drafting edicts originally held by Shangshulang was transferred to the officials of the Zhongshu Province.

The confidential power in the court was gradually transferred to Zhongshu Province.

At the same time, he once again ordered that women were not allowed to intervene in the government, and officials were not allowed to interfere with the Queen Mother.

Although the Queen Mother doesn't know where she is now, Liu Long still made such a decision.

Moreover, the descendants of the family are not allowed to serve as assistants to the government, and they are not allowed to accept the nobility of Mao Tu.

Just such a simple sentence made both the Deng family and the Geng family dumbfounded. Of course, the old and new descendants of the Deng family and the Geng family refused to agree.

But facing the many officials in the court, they had no choice.

Because if they do this, the rights of their two families will be decentralized again, and the number of beneficiaries will increase sharply. Of course, the people in the court will not object to this.

At the same time, Liu Long once again ordered to deprive the vassal king of his rights. The Han vassal king's fiefdom was originally very stable.

The Han vassal king also lived a pretty good life.

However, Liu Long directly ordered the rectification of the vassal system on the grounds that some of the original vassal kings or later vassal kings had done evil things.

Not only did you require the fiefdoms of vassal kings from various places to change frequently, but you also directly deprived them of many rights.

In the past, for the land that their vassal kings had vassalized, they had a prime minister to help them manage the counties.

But now, Liu Long has taken away all these rights from them.

They have no power to govern, let alone military power.

They even asked the courtiers to take the initiative to monitor them. If there was any violation of law or discipline, they would immediately report it to the court, and a censor would come to check.

Once the inspection is completed, they will be punished immediately.

As a result, every move of these vassal kings will be strictly monitored, which is like being behind bars.

This kind of thing is indeed a bit harsh, but it also avoids many problems.

After all, they, the Han people, have many precedents, that is, the vassal states have made trouble in the past, and such things have often happened.

Of course, this also left hidden dangers, resulting in the clan being weak and unable to prevent foreign ministers from seizing power in the future.

Many people tried to persuade me to do this, but to no avail.

Because just like depriving the queen of power, many of the rights of doing so fell into the hands of the courtiers, which made the courtiers feel that the emperor was really a sensible emperor.

What he did now made them feel very satisfied.

Therefore, Liu Long gradually felt relieved.

Even Liu Long's reputation was promoted by them and he became a famous king through the ages.
