The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 474 The Contest with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty

On the 15th day of the fifth month of the first year of Taichu, I watched the morning of the lunar calendar.

Today's court meeting.

A minister from the Ministry of Personnel said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, Sang Shangshu has been away in northern Xinjiang for several months. Do you want to recall him?"

The left minister of the household department also spoke to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "I second the proposal."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said expressionlessly: "Sang Shangshu's inspection in northern Xinjiang is of great importance, so he will not be transferred back to Beijing for the time being."

"Your Majesty, should I send Lord Liu, the Minister of War, to go to Northern Xinjiang?"

"Sang Shangshu doesn't understand military affairs, so he may not be able to find anything during the inspection."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sneered and said: "Which of my officials is not capable of fighting on horseback and managing on horseback?"

"Why doesn't Mr. Sang understand military affairs?"

"There is no need to mention this matter again."

At the end of the court meeting, all the officials retired, but Sang Hongyang was still not recalled.

At this time, both Master Fu Yan and Dong Zhongshu noticed the problem. They looked at each other and walked on the road to Weiyang Palace, whispering.

"Your Majesty clearly does not want to transfer Sang Hongyang back...Li Ju was also transferred to Sichuan and Shu..."

As long as you briefly analyze who Sang Hongyang and Li Ju are, you can almost understand what Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty meant.

At the small court meeting on the second day, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once again proposed to the six departments of the three provinces whether Liu Huan could be crowned King of Jiaodong.

As long as this group of senior officials did not seem to betray Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at all, they always insisted that Liu Huan should not be crowned King of Jiaodong.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty retreated and asked if Liu Huan could be granted the title of Marquis.

Still rejected.

In short, the ministries of the three provinces and six ministries did not support Liu Huan in any reward.

This is inconsistent with etiquette, and his mother is guilty of regicide, unless you overturn Chen Ajiao's case.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty must not be able to do it, nor would he do it. The matter has been determined, how can it be overturned.

This time the Umrah meeting broke up unhappy again.

……

It wasn’t until the Great Court Meeting in mid-June, when the Minister of Household Affairs presented the financial report for the first half of this year, it stirred up a thousand waves with one stone!

Last year, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development collected as much as 1 trillion yuan in commercial taxes, but in the first half of this year, the tax revenue was only less than half.

The tax revenue for the entire first half of the year was nearly half that of last year.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked the Ministry of Household Affairs about the reason.

The Minister of Household Affairs just shook his head and said that they didn't know. One of the most profitable businesses, water transportation, had a problem, but they couldn't find out the reason.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stared at the Minister of Household Affairs for a long time, and then said angrily: "Check it for me!"

"According to the order!"

After retiring from the court, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat angrily in the Qilin Hall. Liu Huan carefully served Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and asked, "Father, why are you so angry?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty informed Liu Huan about the household affairs.

Liu Huan smiled and said, "Father, why don't you transfer Lord Sang Hongyangsang back?"

"Master Sang is very familiar with finance. As long as he comes back, everything can be solved."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Liu Huan in shock, with an expression that looked like a cannibal.

Liu Huan was frightened and said quickly: "Father, did I say something wrong? I didn't mean it. Father, please don't be offended."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty shook his head and said: "You are right, I know what they are going to do!"

"This is forcing me to transfer Sang Hongyang back! So that's it, that's it!"

"Okay, very good!"

"How dare they force me into the palace!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty squinted his eyes and his face was terrifyingly gloomy. This was to force him to transfer Sang Hongyang back and threaten him with national finances.

If you don't give in, then let the finances continue to languish. In the end, the people will not be able to make a living, and the people will start to turn against him, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

well!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said sternly: "Go and summon Zhang Tang to me!"

"Here!"

Not long after, Zhang Tang came to the Qilin Hall. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said to Zhang Tang: "Find me evidence and kill the right minister of the household department!"

Zhang Tang was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly: "I obey the order!"

……

Zhang Tang left Weiyang Palace and walked directly towards the East Palace.

He found Weining immediately and hoped that Weining would save him.

When Zhang Tang told Wei Ning what happened in the court today, Wei Ning couldn't help but stare wide-eyed!
He really didn't expect that his uncle would actually take action. Didn't he tell him not to take action?
Zhang Tang is also in a dilemma now. If he doesn't listen to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and doesn't find evidence for the right minister of household affairs, then the handle he had in the hands of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will immediately become evidence of his execution.

He had done too many unworthy things for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It would be very easy for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to kill him.

But if he helped Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deal with Wei Ning's people, he would offend Wei Ning again, so he came to ask Wei Ning how to save him.

Wei Ning pondered for a moment and said to Zhang Tang: "Look for the evidence of the crime of the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Remember not to find anything too serious. Detain the emperor first."

"it is good!"

After Zhang Tang left, Wei Ning hurriedly went to find Wei Qing and said, "Uncle!"

Wei Qing pressed his hands and said, "I will carry the sinner for you through the ages."

Wei Ning hurriedly shook his head and said: "That's not it...Father has asked Zhang Tang to deal with the Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Have you thought of a countermeasure?"

Wei Qing said calmly: "Don't worry, he can't deal with the right minister of Hube."

"If he really dares to risk great disbelief and the opposition of all officials to kill the right minister of Hube, then let the right minister of Hube sacrifice his life."

Wei Ning was stunned for a moment.

Wei Qing patted Wei Ning on the shoulder and said, "It is his honor to sacrifice for you."

"Besides, things won't develop to this point, so you can rest assured."

Only now did Weining understand how bloody the political struggle would end.

He clenched his fists tightly, nodded and said, "Uncle, be careful. If my father finally knows that you are helping me, he may deal with you."

Wei Qing smiled slightly and said: "Then let him deal with it. The birds are all good and the bows are hidden. Qu Bing is dead, so I have nothing to fear."

Wei Ning shook his head and said, "No! Uncle, don't talk nonsense."

Wei Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen."

"But you haven't come to my residence recently. After today, His Majesty may have to use the Detective Department to monitor all officials."

"We will all be the subjects of his surveillance."

Wei Ning nodded and said, "Okay!"

……

As Wei Qing expected, not long after Zhang Tang left, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty summoned Qi Bin and said indifferently: "Go and monitor the officials for me, especially the prince's movements."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had reason to suspect that Weining was responsible for today's act of forcing the emperor to marry.

The boy's wings are really strong, and he is starting to fight with me. Then I will see how capable you are.

After explaining these things, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty began to have headaches again. Not only did he have a headache, he also had some problems with his eyesight and his skin was itchy.

He said to Liu Huan: "You help me deal with the memorial. I'm going to rest."

Liu Huan hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Okay, Father, I understand."

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty entered the inner hall, the corners of Liu Huan's mouth curled up slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face!
