Chapter two hundred and ten

"The Prime Minister is intent. Even I know how many times I have improved papermaking techniques. I have never said this in the court!" Liu Che said with a cover of his face.

He didn't want his ministers to know everything, but now it seems that this seems to have become a luxury. Many ministers know what should not be known and what should be known.

Wei Wan joked very rarely: "If you don't want to know, don't do it!"

"This sentence is not appropriate..." Liu Che glared at him fiercely and said gritting his teeth.

"Your Majesty taught the old minister. The old minister doesn't know the meaning of this. I hope your majesty will calm down!" Wei Wan didn't argue, saying that he didn't know.

"Hmph, the Prime Minister can explain, I have nothing to say about you!" Liu Che snorted lightly.

It is okay to be naughty occasionally, but it will be uncomfortable if you have too many. Wei Wan turned his attention to the trade route, "Tainong Ling has sent people to the old Nanyue Kingdom and is preparing to plan to trade from the sea route to other countries."

"Prime Minister, you should say that the nine counties in the south are. The South Vietnam no longer exists, so don't mention it again." Liu Che corrected.

Such a head of officials who forgot all the important edicts issued by the emperor and had never changed his old views were undoubtedly incompetent. Of course, this was also a quick response from Liu Che.

Listening to Liu Che's ridicule, Wei Wan's face turned red, "Let's get back to the point! Don't Your Majesty want to hear the message from Tainong Order?"

"Tell me!"

Nodding, Wei Wan smiled knowingly, "After all, it's the court's business, and Tainong ordered the majesty to test the majesty, so they can only keep it."

"Oh? In the nine counties in the south, the merchants near the sea began to surrender?" Liu Che said with a smile.

"That's true if you say it to Your Majesty!"

It seems that Tai Nong Ling is using tricks, otherwise, according to the temperament of those snobs, how could he willingly give up this big pie?

Merchants are profit-seeking after all.

They are also afraid of being arrogant. What if people are under the eaves, what if they don’t bow their heads? Waiting for being cut off or even being searched? This is what the emperor means, who dares to say no?

"Although this is a way of wealth, it is not as huge as His Majesty thinks, right? Why does His Majesty fight for that small profit?" Wei Wan said strangely.

It’s still small profits, how could it be so simple to trade at sea? It’s just that it’s not developed!

However, Liu Che did not make any decisions and explained to Wei Wan, but said mysteriously: "The Prime Minister can postpone it for a period of time, and then look at the results. I have my own measures in my heart."

"Then I will retreat first!"

"Well, I have nothing to do for the time being. Prime Minister Wei, please go back first." Liu Che responded.

...

The strong wind blew all night and when we got up in the morning, the mountains, gullies and plains around Chang'an City were decorated with vastness by the depression in the late winter. From a distance, the low mountains in the west of the city were like a galloping silver elephant, which seemed to confront Guyan Mountain in the north of the Shanyu Courtyard under the gray clouds.

This is the fifth day after the revised system of recommendation was announced in the world. People do not know the meaning of this edict and have not taken it seriously, but the officials have been earth-shaking.

Some of the Shoucheng factions criticized this and made many suggestions, but Liu Che ignored it and threw it aside as waste paper. Some of the new factions felt that this gave more people a way out, and praised it greatly, spreading the great favors everywhere.

These are normal, so Liu Che was too lazy to pay attention to it, just let it go. Anyway, there are many prestige that should be established, and no officials who are blind will spread far-reaching words everywhere because this is a way to seek death.

Since the system of selecting officials has existed, what is Jigu, who has always been responsible for selecting officials? Yes, it is still the three of the three dukes and nine ministers...

Prime Minister Wei Wan is an honest man and will not go on strike because of the increased burden. Taiwei Dou Ying is a real man and will not shirk it because of the officials' praise. But the censor Zhao Wan is different. He has a lot to say at this moment.

Of course, if he asked him to go directly to see Liu Che, he was a little afraid that the emperor would scold him, so he persuaded him to pull the Grand Marshal Dou Ying and Prime Minister Wei Wan, saying that he had something important to discuss with his Majesty, and he tricked the few people into Xuanshi Hall.

He felt that the administration of the three ministers was the work of the three ministers.

Go together,

Pull up allies,

The amount is probably enough.

In fact, he was also very nervous. After all, this is for personal gain, not for public gain. His back is not straight enough, and his etiquette is not neat.

The scenes of the three dukes gathering together seem to be rare except for morning court. Liu Che was also surprised, but he didn't have time to think about anything else, just pretending that he had to make a decision on his own if he had done something about the official family.

"Your Majesty, I think there are many possible changes in the major reform of the administration. Your Majesty should make a decision!" Zhao Wan said first.

It turned out that he had this idea. Prime Minister Wei Wan and Grand Marshal Dou Ying looked at Zhao Wan in surprise, and they were already praying for him. His Majesty would definitely be unhappy...

Sure enough, Liu Che said disdainfully: "Doctor Censor, you shouldn't say this from your mouth! Do you think I've changed it absurdly?"

"I dare not. I just think that filial and honest people will contradict many government orders, which will then destroy the court's principles." Zhao Wan lowered her head and explained.

"As the censor, can't you discover the chaos of the administration since the late emperor? You still destroy the court? This is just a destruction and then establishment!

I was a little doubtful, are you, Zhao Wan, too far-reaching, and only remember to stick to the traditions of your ancestors and not thinking about changing?" Liu Che said angrily.

Seeing that he was trapped in this situation, Zhao Wan quickly signaled the two of them to plead for him with his eyes.

Wei Wan smiled bitterly at this time and said, "The Censor is just afraid of sudden changes. It is an unintentional mistake. Your Majesty, please relieve the fire!"

"Yes, Lord Zhao is also willing to share your worries for Your Majesty. There is nothing wrong with it. Your Majesty calms down." Dou Ying continued.

From this we can see that it is difficult for the emperor to change his mind, but Zhao Wan is still a little unwilling to give up and is thinking about how to persuade him again.

When he was planning, Liu Che also spoke: "You two don't need to say much. I am not a person who is ruthless and unreasonable. Anyone can give advice. There is no mistake at all. It's just that whether you listen or not or not is entirely up to me."

Liu Che said that, and glanced at Zhao Wan, saying that he did not want to adopt his suggestion.

"Your Majesty, this great reform of the administration will surely lead to a large number of officials appointing and condemning them. The three ministers' mansion will definitely be too busy. I requested that a period of time be postponed before making major reforms!" Although I had a feeling of the emperor's suggestion, Zhao Wan said alone.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, this is Lord Zhao's real purpose. Don't worry, the Three Dukes' Mansion is too busy. I will transfer people to it, so I will naturally fill the vacancy. At that time, you will select an official and let me check it out and wait for me!

By the way, Lord Zhao must be careful in the future. I have said last time that if you make mistakes again, I will replace you." Liu Che said with a smile.
