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

Chapter 504 Liu Huan with low emotional intelligence
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty suppressed the anger in his heart. He didn't know whether Weining did it on purpose.

Who doesn’t know that money and food can be used to suppress people? Where does the money and food come from?
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked Weining: "The treasury is short of money and food, what should we do?"

Wei Ning shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is the leader of the Han Dynasty and has his own conclusions. My subordinates are stupid and don't know how to break the situation."

If you want to change the current situation, you must recall all your previous officials.

But everyone may not enter the center.

At first you regarded them as servants of the heavenly family, who can still be loyal to you now?

Governing a country is no small matter. Once the foundation collapses, it will take many years to rebuild the country to restore its former prosperity.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gritted his teeth after hearing Weining's words, but he had no choice but to do anything.

"Let's go back."

Wei Ning cupped his fists and said, "I'm leaving!"

After Weining left, Liu Huan said with a cold face: "He is so bold!"

"I didn't blame my father in every word, but I cursed my father in every word!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty glanced at Liu Huan and asked, "Do you have any countermeasures?"

Liu Huan: "..."

"My son is stupid."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "Isn't it the same for you? Your answer is no different from his."

Liu Huan swallowed, thinking that His Majesty was not completely disappointed in Weining yet.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty closed his eyes.

The country is short of money, the military is corrupt, politics is muddy, and there are no available talents.

The people who are promoted are just a bunch of losers. It is difficult to expect them to govern the country.

If you want to change the status quo, you still need people!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty glanced at Liu Huan and said, "Find a way to recall Sang Hongyang and Gongsun He back to the court."

Liu Huan was stunned for a moment.

These people are all Weining's right-hand men. If they were recalled again, wouldn't they give Weining huge power?

Liu Huandao: "Father, Sang Hongyang and others are the prince's cronies and fully support the prince..."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty glanced at him and said: "When the country no longer exists, will there still be an emperor and a prince?"

"My Liu family has become such a mess. If we don't break the situation, sooner or later the country will be destroyed."

Liu Huan could see that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty really had no choice, otherwise he would make such a shameful compromise.

He personally dismissed Sang Hongyang and others from office for the second time, but now they may not be willing to reinstate them.

However, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had assigned this task to Liu Huan, he had to try it anyway.

Liu Huan summoned the Minister of Civil Affairs and asked him to activate Sang Hongyang and Gongsun He.

The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was stunned. Gongsun He was the former Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. He was about to be activated. What should I do?
Now all the six ministers are sitting in the corpse position, and they are all considering their own interests. It is basically impossible for them to do their best to serve the court.

The result is self-evident. Neither Sang Hongyang nor Gongsun He are willing to become officials again.

Liu Huan had no choice but to visit Gongsun He and Sang Hongyang in person today.

……

Gongsun Mansion.

Gongsun He Xianfu has been at home for a long time. He has a keen insight into the recent changes in the situation in Chang'an and has been thinking about how to leave Chang'an.

Once Wei Ning and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty started to fight with real swords and spears, the Gongsun family would definitely be implicated.

It's not that he's afraid of death, it won't be of any use if he stays in Chang'an. Wei Qing can also provide military help to Wei Ning, but what about himself? There is no other use than waiting to die.

It's just that it's not easy to leave Chang'an now. Everyone outside is from the Detective Department. Even if there are sufficient reasons, the court may not let him leave.

After all, he has been labeled as Weining.

When Gongsun He heard that Liu Huan was coming, he was slightly stunned and met Liu Huan in the middle hall.

Gongsun He said respectfully: "The common people have seen His Highness the King of Jiaodong."

Liu Huan waved his hand and said: "Master Gongsun, don't be so polite."

"The king is here today to ask Lord Gongsun to return and resume his high position as Minister of Civil Affairs. I wonder what Lord Gongsun wants?"

Gongsun He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

"The grassroots are old. They have been away from the court for more than a year. Their energy can no longer keep up, and they may not be competent."

"Your Highness might as well look for other talents to join the service."

Now that the imperial court is in such a huge mess, who would want to come in?
Not to mention that Gongsun He and Weining are on the same front. Even if they are fair people like Zhufu Yan and Dong Zhongshu, will they be willing to call them back as officials now?

The death of Dade is still fresh in our minds. Who can guarantee that he will no longer be the next Dade?
Liu Huan smiled and said: "Master Gongsun, there is no need to be humble. I believe you have this ability."

Gongsun He still said respectfully: "Your Highness, I am helpless, so please forgive me."

Liu Huan suppressed his anger and said with a smile: "In that case, I will not disturb Lord Gongsun anymore."

Then Liu Huan went to visit Sang Hongyang. Now the country's top priority is not the official department, but the household department.

The household department is short of money, and as everyone knows, as long as Sang Hongyang improves the household department, everything will be fine.

However, Sang Hongyang asked Liu Huandao: "I am going back to the Ministry of Revenue, and I would like to ask your highness three things."

"Can Your Majesty let me make all the decisions in the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

This is not difficult. I believe his father will agree. Liu Huan nodded happily and saw some hope.

Sang Hongyang continued: "Can your Majesty apologize to Dade and restore Dade's reputation?"

Liu Huan was stunned for a moment and said: "There is absolutely no such possibility. The murderer of Dade's death has been handed over and it was not His Majesty's fault."

Sang Hongyang continued: "Can your Majesty please return the power to the crown prince and let the crown prince resume his duties as the country's crown prince?"

Liu Huan's face twitched and he said: "Prince Wei has always been the prince and is also fulfilling the duties of the crown prince. I wonder why Mr. Sang said this?"

Sang Hongyang shook his head and said, "I'm sorry that I can't obey my order."

"Your Highness, please come back."

Liu Huanyi said angrily: "Sang Hongyang! The Ministry of Household Affairs of the country is in such dire straits. Do you intend to be unfaithful and unfilial and watch the country sink?"

Sang Hongyang said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Everything happens for a reason. What is the reason for the financial difficulties? If the source is not solved, even if the grassroots people go to the Ministry of Household Affairs, they will just be made to take the blame."

"Why should ordinary people ask for trouble? Your Highness, please consider it carefully."

Liu Huan clenched his fists tightly and said, "Sang Hongyang! You are also a student of sages. The country has cultivated you, and you repay it like this?"

Sang Hongyang asked back: "Can't His Highness see all the achievements that the grassroots have done before?"

"Your Highness is talking like this. Do ordinary people dare to return to the court?"

This is a typical example of low emotional intelligence. Liu Huan's wisdom is not at the same level as Weining's.

What I want to say today is for Weining to say it. It is absolutely impossible for him to say such words that are nothing but low-emotionally intelligent.

Liu Huan was speechless for a moment. He could only glare at Sang Hongyang helplessly and furiously, snorted and said, "Master Sang is noble!"

"I will not disturb Lord Sang anymore!"
