Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 1301: To understand is to understand, to understand is to understand

Valley Emperor

Today's hundreds of officials continue to discuss the matter, and the matter discussed has changed from the Jiangbei corruption case at the beginning, and gradually turned into a failure of the Inspectorate to do things well, and the ministries of the cabinet are also responsible, and almost all institutions are sprayed again. , and finally evolved into a dispute between the administration and the judiciary.

Some say that the administration interferes with the judiciary, while others say that the administration of justice is not divided, which has led to confusion in the administration.

And many of them are some old problems that have existed in the Datang Empire for many years, even stubborn diseases. In the past, everyone knew about it, but they would not say it. After all, family ugliness still needs to be covered.

But now, all the **** things are brought out, and the trouble is getting bigger and bigger, making Liu Bagou, who is a scholar of the Zhongji Palace, the minister on duty in the imperial study, the minister of agriculture, and the marquis of the empire, also feel it. tricky.

Liu Bagou was the prime minister when the Tang Empire was first established. Later, after the reform of the official system, he became a scholar of the Zhongji Palace, a minister of the household, and a first-class rank. In the past ten years, although it is said that he has not had the name of the first assistant, but the actual The above is the fact that it has always been the first supplement.

However, although he has always been in a high position by virtue of his early years, Liu Bagou is also a smart person. He also knows what it means to be a high-ranking master. Therefore, after the empire unified China, he was rarely actually responsible for any affairs. Now, although he has served as the minister of household and the minister of agriculture, Liu Bagou basically didn't care about specific matters after eight years of Xuanping. Today, the affairs of the agricultural department are all handled by the two servants.

He Liu Bagou basically stayed in the imperial study every day, and didn't take part in the detailed affairs of the ministry, and in the imperial study, he didn't deal much with the detailed affairs.

More often, he acts as a leader to adjust the contradictions of various departments, or acts as a bridge between the cabinet and the Son of Heaven. When the Son of Heaven is inconvenient to speak directly to various departments, he stands up for the saint. The Son of Heaven solves the trouble.

But there is absolutely no beginning in specific matters!

In addition, there is a very important point that he cares more about the loyalty of other ministers to Li Xuan than Li Xuan, and when it comes to etiquette, when a minister loses in front of Li Xuan, Liu Bagou will not care about it. Do not hesitate to stand up and solve it.

In other words, in the past ten years, Liu Bagou's original intention has not changed, that is to maintain the imperial power of the Tang Empire!

Well, to put it bluntly, Liu Bagou is not defending Li Xuan, but the imperial power of the Tang Empire. If one day Li Xuan dies, Liu Bagou will support Li Xuan without hesitation. The son ascended the throne as emperor, and then assisted him to become a new generation of sages.

For this, although Liu Bagou never said it, Li Xuan could see it, but he didn't have much dislike for it. On the contrary, he still admired Liu Bagou's purity!

In the huge imperial officialdom, an official like Liu Bagou with such a pure ideal cannot be found in a thousand miles!

Therefore, Liu Bagou's perseverance is also because he has been sitting on the throne of a scholar for the past ten years, becoming the only person in the Tang Empire who is serving as a first-rank civil official.

From the beginning of the Tang Empire to the present, there have been three first-rank officials, namely Liu Bagou, Qian Mengjiu, and Wang Wenhua, and the first-rank officials of these three people all come from their titles of Grand Scholar. .

In the Datang Empire, the rank of the first rank can only be obtained in two ways, one is a great scholar, and the other is the three princes and three solitaries. As for the nobility, this thing is not equal to the rank, and the Tang Dynasty did not have it either. It is fixed that aristocrats are super-quality, such as seeing a high-ranking official, aristocrats are a separate honor system, and have nothing to do with administrative rank and military rank.

And Li Xuan is relatively stingy. Over the years, San Gong and San Gu have never issued it, not once, and the Grand Master has only issued it to three people, that is, Liu Bagou and the other three, and these three are also Obtained in the Huangzhushan era.

As for the others, Li Xuan felt that they needed to work harder if they wanted to obtain the highest-ranking civil servant titles in the Tang Empire, such as Grand Scholar, San Gong and San Gu.

During the establishment of the Tang Empire, to be honest, apart from Liu Bagou, the other civilian officials did not contribute much, and the army played a major role. In addition, Li Xuan also deliberately suppressed the civilian group to ensure that the military power of the empire would not be affected. It will weaken too early, and it will continue to maintain its attraction to high-quality talents and maintain the combat effectiveness of the army.

Therefore, Li Xuan is very generous to the generals of the military, but is generally suppressed by the civilians.

Liu Bagou was naturally aware of Li Xuan's policy, and he did not understand it, but this did not prevent him from defending Li Xuan wholeheartedly and supporting Li Xuan's decision.

Liu Bagou has been in a high position for many years, and has seen many disputes and turmoil in the court, but this year's large-scale political turmoil still makes Liu Bagou quite worried.

He knew that the Son of Heaven was planning the next big game, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

Well, this is not important. The important thing is that he feels that if he continues to be so uncontrolled, I am afraid it will have too much impact. Although the debate is still limited to the interior of the court, if it continues like this, it will definitely spread throughout the whole world. The group of officials, and then the entire group of gentry, if the entire group of gentry knows about it, it basically means that the whole world knows about it.

And this can have very bad effects.

Liu Bagou, who was a little worried, accompanied Li Xuan to inspect the back garden of the palace that was about to be completed, and he also asked a few words from the sidelines.

As for Liu Bagou's side-talking, Li Xuan raised his head to look at this person, and then smiled normally: "Yes, it seems that the people below also put their hearts into it. And yet elegant and generous!”

Li Xuan said, pointing to a large flowerbed in front of him. The flowerbed was planted with various flowers and plants. Although it was autumn at this time, there were still many plants and flowers that remained evergreen or even bloomed.

Li Xuan continued: "It's just that there are evergreen seasons, withered yellow in autumn and winter, spring and summer flowers, and winter snow and cold plums. Mixing them all has a unique charm, but Aiqing, do you think this garden is too cluttered? ?"

After listening to Liu Bagou, he looked at the flowerbed in front of him. It was not easy to see such a beautiful flowerbed in autumn.

But while watching, I thought about what Li Xuan said just now!

After thinking for a while, he replied: "Your Majesty's words are very true, the universe is orderly, yin and yang are in order, the order can't be disordered, the Tao can't be issued, but this flowerbed is a little messy, if it is repaired, it will be evergreen. At the place, the wood is measured, and the flower side, it will look more pleasing to the eye!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly after listening, and stopped talking, but continued to move forward.

There were several secretaries in the back, some were thoughtful after listening, while some looked confused, and some also looked at the flower garden, and couldn't help but imagine Liu Bagou's work in their minds. If all the flowers and plants in the flowerbed are classified into categories and then planted separately, I am afraid that it will be terrible.

But why is the Son of Heaven nodding?

Could it be that the aesthetics of these two people are different from ordinary people?

Although the entourage are all secretaries in the secretariat of the Hanlin Academy, there are first and second secretaries, as for the third secretaries, they are not qualified to accompany them. Logically speaking, their positions are also very important, and they can come into contact with a large number of secrets, and each and every one of them belongs to young officials who have been focused on training.

However, not everyone knows the inside story. Those first-class secretaries understood it, because they knew more or less the thoughts of the Son of Heaven, but although they guessed one or two, they were all mouths. Tightly closed, that is not to say to anyone.

As for those second-class secretaries, of course, they have no access to high-level secrets, and it is difficult to guess the thoughts of the Son of Heaven, so naturally they do not understand.

Those who understand understand understand, those who don't understand naturally don't understand, and Li Xuan is naturally too lazy to explain anything.

Judging from Liu Bagou's reaction, Liu Bagou understood and expressed his opinion!

Liu Bagou's opinion is to support Li Xuan as always!

As for right or wrong, that doesn't matter, at least not to Liu Bagou.

After getting his own answer, Liu Bagou didn't ask anything else, but specially accompanied Li Xuan to look at the back garden of the palace!

This back garden~www.wuxiaspot.com~ actually has another name, that is, the Royal Garden, but now it is only one side of the Royal Garden, which is part of the reconstruction project of the palace.

The reconstruction of the imperial palace started very early. In name, the construction of the imperial palace started from Jinling City, the capital of Ding.

However, because the former Ming Palace was seriously damaged, it would cost too much to rebuild it as it was. In addition, the key point was that Li Xuan did not like the traditional palace. It was too depressing. , but in fact, in the dark palace, people will go crazy.

Relatively speaking, Li Xuan prefers to live in the existing Royal Courtyard, because the predecessor of the Royal Courtyard was a large mansion, but after the renovation, it actually turned into a huge garden with fewer buildings. Li Xuan prefers the living environment.

In fact, this is not Li Xuan's choice alone. From ancient times to the present, few emperors like to live in the palace hall every day, and they like to live in the royal garden whenever they have the opportunity.

Therefore, when rebuilding the palace, although the front hall part needs to reflect the orthodoxy of the Tang Dynasty, all kinds of traditional halls are needed, but the living area in the back is also arranged according to the central axis as a whole, but in Li Xuan Under the requirements of the palace, the rear part of the harem shall all adopt a garden-style layout.

If anyone dares to get him a large area of ​​dense and terrifying houses, Li Xuan will dare to send him directly to Nanyang, and it is still undeveloped and the desert island occupied by cannibals.
