Chapter 105 The first court meeting

In the first year of Jianyuan, the first great dynasty after Liu Che ascended the throne was held today.

This is a very meaningful day.In the morning, before dawn, Liu Che took a bath and took off his clothes under the service of the palace servants.There was an indescribable excitement in his heart, his whole body trembled a little, and a wonderful fiery feeling emanated from his whole body.He barely slept last night, but he was still in good spirits and looked very energetic.

Stretching out his arms, he waited patiently for the servants to smooth out the tiniest wrinkles on his body, then he walked to the bronze mirror and looked at it carefully. The young and handsome young emperor, full of vigor and ambition, was about to soar above the sky Canglong.

"Ayan, what do you think?" Liu Che subconsciously turned his head and asked behind him, but there was no one there.Liu Che was taken aback, and then remembered that Han Yan and Zhou Mingjin had gone to the front court to prepare for their shifts according to the rules.

And Han Yan and Zhou Mingjin were indeed being tortured very hard at this time.

Since it was the first big dynasty in the first year of Jianyuan, everyone was nervous, and all the officials gathered outside the palace gate before Yinshi arrived.According to their positions, both Han Yan and Zhou Mingjin are Taizhong doctors with a rank of one thousand stone.Although this position is not high in rank, it is a very coveted position because it can always be by His Majesty's side.However, considering the family background of the two and their relationship with His Majesty, it is reasonable to assume this official position.

The two stood aside and waited patiently for the visitor's guidance.Since it was the first great dynasty, all the officials over six hundred shi and the princes and ministers came over, and it was a dark one, standing together in twos and threes according to the distance of their relationship.It was generally quiet, although there was a humming sound from time to time.except in one direction—

"If you want me to say, we old people have to get together frequently, or our bones will be brittle. Thinking about the situation when the Seven Kingdoms were in chaos, it was hard for three days and three nights to run thousands of miles without sleep. , now Wu is panting with two swords on his hands, especially Luan Bu, who is still dozing off!" Zhou Yafu's rough voice was like thunder in summer, resounding rumblingly in front of the hall.

"It can't be done, I'm getting old!" Luan Bu covered his mouth, yawned a little, and said.

"Hi!" Zhou Yafu waved his hand. "If you want me to say, you just stayed at home for too long, you want to learn from me, go out for a walk if you have nothing to do, you can also train and train the little dolls of the Habayashi Army! In short, you can't stay."

"I don't have that spirit!" Luan Bu said slowly, stroking his beard. "How can you toss like a dragon and a tiger like Tiao Hou. If you continue to toss, the old man's bones will all fall apart."

"Then you should move around from time to time. I heard that A Yan's restaurant has made new wine, or—"

"Hey! Let's talk, why did you focus on the old man's grandson again?" Han Tui interrupted Zhou Yafu's words.

"Nonsense!" Zhou Yafu stared wide-eyed, and retorted in a rough voice: "That is also the godson of the old man, what's the matter with the grandfather drinking a few bowls of wine for his grandson! Ah Yan, Ah Yan!"

Zhou Yafu shouted in the crowd, scratching his neck.Han Yan and Zhou Mingjin smiled wryly at each other, and immediately ran to Zhou Yafu's side in fear.

"Grandpa, no noise is allowed in front of Weiyang Palace, please keep your voice down!" Zhou Mingjin persuaded Zhou Yafu by tugging on his sleeve.

"Respect is in the heart, it's not just being bored and not talking." Zhou Yafu rolled his eyes and lowered his voice in a kind manner, but what he thought was lowering his voice was actually still thunderous in everyone's eyes. "Ayan, how about sending dozens of jars of spirits you made to my house?"

"As long as it happens, it's absolutely fine." Han Yan smiled and added, "Even if you don't tell me, I won't forget it."

"Hey!" Zhou Yafu smiled proudly at Han Tuidang, who shook his head helplessly.

"Invite the princes and ministers, civil and military officials to enter the palace one by one!" The visitor who was in charge of the order of the court walked in front of the crowd and sang loudly.

Everyone fell silent for a moment and straightened their clothes.Enter the temple according to the order. [Chariots, cavalry, infantry and palace guards are lined up in the court, with various weapons and flags erected.The audience shouted "Small steps and quick steps".So all the officials took their positions, and the Langzhong officials under the main hall stood on both sides of the steps, and there were hundreds of people on the steps.All meritorious officials, lieutenants, generals and officers of all levels are arranged in order on the west side, facing east; all civilian officials are arranged in order from the prime minister on the east side, facing west. ] At this time, Liu Che also came over in a dragon chariot.In front of the Xuanshi Hall, Liu Che stepped on the eunuch's back and got off the dragon chariot.The rising sun just reached the top at this time, and the golden sunlight burst out instantly, reflecting the white jade railings and bluestone steps brilliantly.The endless steps stand quietly in front of you, and at the other end is the Xuanshi Palace, which represents the majesty of the emperor, as if in the sky.Every nine steps on both sides of the steps, there are two guards standing around eating swords and spears.Liu Che took a deep breath.Step by step, he stepped steadily up the steps, and he didn't look back.He knew that when he completely stepped on the ladder that seemed to lead to the clouds, everything would be different from the past.

From the side hall, Liu Che went directly into the Xuanshi Hall, with a solemn face, walked majestically to the dragon chair and sat down calmly.He glanced at all the ministers and marquises in the hall, all of them stood respectfully and solemnly with their eyebrows lowered.A kind of high-spirited pleasure gradually permeates the body and mind.

The nine protocol officers arranged by the Daxingling stepped forward and alternately sang from top to bottom with their loud and clear voices: "Tiaohou Zhou Yafu has arrived, Qiangonggao Hou Han Duidang has arrived, Jianling Marquis Weiwan has arrived... "

The princes and kings and officials over six hundred stones in the capital congratulated the emperor one by one, behaved respectfully and respectfully.It was said that after nearly half an hour of singing, all the talents finished the ceremony one after another.

Liu Che looked at the courtiers below without being wordy, and directly promulgated his first government decree after assuming the throne.Order [Prime Minister, Yushi, Liehou, Zhongerqianshi, Erqianshi, and the ministers of each vassal state, to be virtuous, upright, outspoken and extremely admonishing people. 】Everyone has no objection.Liu Che immediately gave the order. "Since there is no objection, the Prime Minister Wei Wan is responsible for recommending virtuous and upright people. Wei Qihou Dou Ying and Wu'an Hou Tianfu are assisting the prime minister. You two should start as soon as possible. Do you have any questions?"

"I have no objection." Wei Wan and Dou Ying stepped forward and bowed to receive the order.

"I will do my best to live up to your Majesty's high expectations." Tian Fu also kowtowed conscientiously to thank you.It was Wang Zhi who begged for this matter in front of Liu Che, just to let Tian Fu show off his talents, so as to find a way forward.Tian Fu also eagerly took it down.

"En!" Liu Che responded, and said: "Tian Fu, you have no outstanding military achievements, and no political achievements. Just because you are my uncle, you were named Marquis of Wu'an. There are many dissatisfied people in court. But the emperor I always praise you for being knowledgeable and quick-witted when you are alive. This time you recommend a virtuous and upright person, you will show off your skills, and let everyone see what kind of person you are!"

"My minister obeys the order!" Tian Fu kowtowed respectfully.

After instructing Tian Fu, Liu Che didn't care too much about this matter.Instead, he smiled at Zhou Yafu and said, "Tiaohou just complained in front of the Xuanshi Palace that the life is boring. It's really boring. Is there something wrong?"

Zhou Yafu blushed, stepped forward, bowed respectfully to Liu Che, and then said: "I am just talking casually, and I have no intention of complaining."

"Hey!" Liu Che waved his hand. "I've said it, I've said it, it's nothing. It's a waste of talents to put you veteran generals who have gone through hundreds of battles and leave them idle. A few days ago, Han Yan, the doctor of the Taizhong, gave me a statement, detailing What do you think of Tiao Hou after you elaborated on the proposal to establish a military academy?"

"Establish a military academy?" Zhou Yafu struggled for a while, a little confused. "Excuse me, Your Majesty, what is a military academy?"

"It's like the previous generals who went to Shanglinyuan to give lectures to the Yulin Army one by one. It's just that this time it needs to be more detailed and comprehensive..." Liu Che said a few words, and then said to Zhou Yafu: "Later, Tiaohou and a few The two generals are here to stay, let’s talk about it in detail.”

"My minister obeys the order!" Zhou Yafu bowed and responded with bright eyes.

Liu Che thought for a while, and had nothing more to say, so he waved his sleeves: "Retire!"

Everyone immediately shouted long live, and exited the Xuanshi Hall in order.

Changle Palace——

Han Yan, who had just left Xuanshi Palace, was called to Changle Palace by the little eunuch who had been waiting beside her early in the morning.Looking at the Empress Dowager who was sitting upright behind the desk, and Xu Chang who was also kneeling next to him, Han Yan shook her head in confusion.

"Why, don't you talk to the old man?" After a long silence, the Empress Dowager said leisurely, "This is Your Majesty's first court meeting, how is it?"

"Your Majesty is so majestic, he reprimands Fang Qiu. He will be a wise monarch in the future." Han Yan said simply.

"I believe this. For so many years in the Han Dynasty, from Emperor Gaozu to his father's generation, there has been no incompetent person. In the prosperous age of Wenjing's rule, his father left him a good family." The Empress Dowager said while teasing the bird in the cage.

Han Yan was silent, not knowing how to respond.

"I heard that he issued an edict to select talents on the first day of his administration?" The Empress Dowager blinked her dim eyes and asked knowingly.

"Yes!" Han Yan replied cautiously.Dou is usually an amiable and protective old lady, but when she got involved in the government affairs, there was an outsider kneeling next to her, so Han Yan couldn't help being careless.

"One emperor and one courtier, he has just ascended the throne, and it is right to choose a few people who are useful. But don't leave those old people behind. They have all worked with the first emperor for a lifetime, and they have to Let them have a good death." The Empress Dowager said slowly. "If the old man told the emperor this, he might not like to hear it. But if you can tell him a few words, he will definitely listen to it."

Han Yan clenched her fists nervously, pursed her lips and did not answer.

"As you said to the emperor before, you must have a degree in everything. Don't act too hastily, and you must know that haste makes waste. You should understand this truth." The empress dowager threw the bird food in her hand onto the table , the back gradually softened, and it was no longer so straight.

Han Yan only felt that it was a very cold day, and there was a trace of sweat dripping from her forehead.He didn't expect that every move of himself and the emperor was under the eyes of the empress dowager, which made people feel uneasy.

"Don't worry too much, I just heard a few words by chance." The Empress Dowager explained as if she knew what Han Yan was thinking. "Those Confucian students in Wei Wan are born to know how to make noise. If they really want to do something big, they may not be able to do it. After all, I have established the country for 70 years and created the current prosperous and prosperous world. Zhi. After so many years, isn’t it pretty good, what do you think?”

The cold sweat from Han Yan's forehead trickled down the tip of his nose. Even if he agrees with it in his heart, he must never say this in front of the Empress Dowager.So he had to remain silent.

The Empress Dowager waited for a long time, but the hall was still silent, so she couldn't help but sighed softly.Just as I was about to say something, I heard someone preaching outside: "The Empress Dowager, Your Majesty has come to visit the Empress Dowager."

The Empress Dowager waved her arms, and Liu Che helped Wang Zhi to enter.Seeing Han Yan who was kneeling respectfully in the center of the hall, Liu Che's eyes flashed with worry.

"Grandmother, why did you let Ah Yan kneel on the ground like this, how cold is it?" Liu Che said, motioning Han Yan to stand up.

"I didn't ask him to kneel, but he wanted to kneel." The Empress Dowager said slowly. "You don't get up quickly, don't you still want to kneel down forever."

"Ah Yan thanked the Empress Dowager." Han Yan replied in a low voice before getting up.

"It's your first time going to court, how do you feel?" The Empress Dowager asked gently in Liu Che's direction.

"When my grandson was sitting up there, all the courtiers below were afraid to speak. My grandson was high above me, and when I gave all the instructions, they all said yes and had no objections." Liu Che looked very excited.When he talked about the scene at that time, his eyes lit up. "Even General Tiao Hou Zhou, who was very generous when he saw me in the past, is also respectful at the court meeting today."

"That's because His Majesty's status is different." The Empress Dowager said with a smile. "I heard that His Majesty has promulgated two government decrees. One is to recommend talents throughout the country, and the other is to establish a military academy?"

Liu Che subconsciously glanced at Xu Chang, frowned, and the smile on his face faded a bit. "How does grandma feel?"

"Recommending talents and appointing talents, this is what every wise monarch should do. The old man can only support him. But the establishment of a military academy..." The Empress Dowager hesitated for a moment. "Cher, do you want to attack the Huns?"

Liu Che was startled, and couldn't help shouting: "Grandma!"

The Empress Dowager waved her hand, and first said to Xu Chang: "Bai Zhihou, you go down first!"

Xu Chang hesitated for a moment, then replied slowly: "No!"

After the figure of Xu Chang walked out of the Changle Palace, the Empress Dowager said slowly: "The old man can only tell you that it is not the time to attack the Huns. The emperor should have a good idea of ​​how our troops are doing in various places after recuperating for more than 70 years. And the emperor You have just ascended the throne, and hundreds of pairs of eyes from all the vassal states are watching His Majesty's every move! The Seven Kingdoms Rebellion is still in front of you, has Your Majesty ever thought about what will happen to these vassal states if you put all your troops on the Xiongnu? "

The anger on Liu Che's face eased, and his expression gradually became thoughtful.

"Accordingly, grandma shouldn't talk too much about His Majesty's actions. But grandma has experienced many ups and downs for so many years, so she should be more cautious when considering things. What does your majesty think?" The Empress Dowager asked slowly.

Liu Che pondered for a moment, and bowed deeply to the Empress Dowager. "The grandson is young and vigorous, so his thinking must not be thorough. Thanks to my grandmother for always reminding me."

The Empress Dowager waved her hand. "As long as you don't blame me for being too busy."

"How can it be? Isn't the queen mother doing it for Che'er?" Wang Zhi said immediately.

The empress dowager frowned, ignored Wang Zhi, and said, "You have just come down to court, you haven't eaten yet! It happened that Ah Yan sent some new dishes yesterday, and sent someone to call the queen, you are all in Changle Let's eat!"

"Thank you grandma!" Liu Che replied with a smile.
