Chapter 645 Foreign ministers enter the palace

Since ascending the throne, Liu He has never felt as comfortable as he was when he was a general before. Since he was the king, he has been more than half a month, but he has never had the chance to leave the palace once. He is locked in the palace day and night to review memorials.

Fortunately, with the assistance of Xun Yu, Xun You and Cui Jun, Xun Yu's political attributes have reached 90 points and Cui Jun has reached 91 points. Although Xun You is good at military strategy and wisdom, he has 82 points in politics. With these three people help, his official service committee is really much easier.

Early that morning, Liu He was about to handle government affairs, but Xun You came over with a memorial.

He is the chief censor, and is responsible for collecting memorials from all officials and submitting the responsibilities of the emperor. Therefore, memorials submitted by ministers in the court, as well as governors and prefects from various places, are summarized into his hands every day.

"Master, this is a list of recommended officials re-planned after consultation between the three dukes and nine ministers. There are a total of 182 people, including four prefects, nine county magistrates, twelve county chiefs, eleven county magistrates, 26 officials under the three dukes, and the rest are county-level officials and minor officials."

Liu He took the list and looked around: "Haha, I've calculated it carefully."

He laughed for no reason, and didn't say much.

"Well, Wenruo, you can handle this. Let me continue to give you instructions and all officials will set off to take office tomorrow. After March, I will assess their political achievements. Those who perform well will be promoted in the next year, those who are incompetent, or even those who use their power for personal gain and cause harm to one side will be dismissed on the spot and deal with the law."

"I obey the order."

As the Minister of State, Xun Yu was in charge of the center, and all the government orders were passed down through his hands.

At this time, Cui Jun also stood up: "Go back to Your Majesty, Zhao's father and son, Dao Zhun, Guangyuan, Gongwei, Zixi and others, went to Beijing to thank Your Majesty. They all arrived in Luoyang yesterday, and are waiting for Your Majesty outside the Kaiyang Gate of the Imperial Palace."

"Oh? They're here?"

Liu He hurriedly put down the pen in his hand: "Hurry, call them into the palace."

Thinking about it, I have been a long time since I have seen Meng Jian, Shi Tao and others. They are different from Cui Jun and two Xun. These three people have been with me for a long time and have made suggestions, but they are scattered all over the country and governing the local area.

Especially since Chen Ji and others launched the Luoyang Rebellion, the chaos in the officialdom and the gentry led to a shortage of civil servants under their command. A group of right-hand assistants whom Meng Jian and others worked hard to train were all transferred to other places to fill the gaps, making them more and more busy and naturally they were more difficult to meet.

Not long after, Gong Saner personally led a large number of people in. Among these people, Qian Li was the leader, and Meng Jian, Shi Tao and others were behind him.

"I am so proud of your Majesty, I wish my emperor all blessings and peace!"

Liu He was very happy and walked forward in person and helped them up.

"Come up quickly. I have not seen you for a long time. I feel very moved in my heart. Now that I have come today, I will stay in the city for a day. Tonight, you and my monarch and ministers will drink and talk about each other, and I will stop drunk."

Shi Tao and others were still a little nervous when they were originally. Although Liu He was their lord in the past, his relationship with the monarch and his subjects was always a little different. Now that he is going to meet the monarch and everyone is inevitably nervous.

But as soon as Liu He said this, everyone relaxed instantly.

"Your Majesty has a decree, but I cannot ask for it. I have not seen Your Majesty's golden face for more than a year, so I really miss you very much."

Liu He laughed happily. Even when he was in Zen and ascended the throne, he was not as happy as he is today.

Among these people, in addition to Qian Li, Meng Jian, Shi Tao, Huo Qing, Tong Jian, Zhang Long, Su Mao, Zhao Jin and his son, Zhao Chang, Zhao Kui, Moda, Zhan Lian, Wu Qin, Du Xian, etc., there are also a group of people with talented culture and governance promoted from the army, as well as Meng, Shi, Qian and others who have been in the local area for many years and have cultivated their own talents. This time, all of them were promoted and reused by Liu He and placed them in various places. The youngest was also the actual shortage of a county magistrate.

Everyone looked at Qian Li, and Qian Li understood and walked up: "I have been grateful to Your Majesty for a long time. If you can achieve this today, it depends on Your Majesty's careful training and support. Now you are unwilling to give up your Majesty and have a heavy responsibility. I hope to repay Your Majesty with this body. Even if you put a knife and an axe on your body, you will not give up this ambition."

"Even though the sword and axe are added to your body, I will not give up this ambition!"

Everyone shouted together.

When Liu He saw them all moving, his eyes flashed with light, and his heart felt sad.

"Okay, okay, okay! Our name is a monarch and minister, but what is the difference between us and brothers? I have to enjoy the imperial throne and be honored from all directions. They are all the support of the ministers. Don't be polite. Come on, all the ministers take their seats."

Among these people, many of them have ranks of ranks of 2,000 stones, but Qian Li has a special identity. When he was in Bingzhou, although everyone was the prefect, Qian Li was actually in charge of affairs in the whole province. He was also convinced by his character and talent. Therefore, among the dozens of people, he was vaguely led by him. Under Liu He's throne, there were two Xun and Cui Jun, followed by him, and Zhao Jin's father Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu was able to be on par with Qian Li because of his rank, but because he was an elder after all.

Liu He looked at Qian Li and said, "Dao Zhun, I and Ling Zun have not seen each other for many years. When I was young, I suppressed bandits everywhere and registered and booked the prisoners, so that I had the power of the village brave team, and Ling Zun made great contributions. Now Dao Zhun moved to Zun Fengyi, and he was on the side of Luoyang. You can quickly bring Ling Zun. If you have free time, you can come to the palace to walk around. The empress dowager and the father-in-law, they missed Ling Zun very much."

When everyone heard this, they all showed envy of Qian Li. The palace was not something that they could come just by wanting to come. Everyone here, except Er Xun and Cui Jun, must have important official duties to enter the palace, and report in advance and only after they are approved.

Qian Li stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. My father has always been healthy. I came to take up his post this time. After everything is stable, I will take him to Henan to take care of him."

"Well, that's great." Liu He nodded and said yes.

"Oh by the way, he is old after all, and the palace road is so long, I'm afraid the old man may not be able to bear it. So, I will give him a car and drive him when he enters the palace, he can take this car and go straight into the harem."

Now, even Qian Li was a little surprised and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"I am on behalf of my father, thank you Your Majesty!"

Everyone was envious of Qian Li, but everyone knew that Qian Li was a child, and his relationship was second only to Guan Yu and others, and his ability was outstanding. Everyone had no objection to this reward.

At this time, Cui Jun looked at Meng Jian and Shi Tao and joked: "I met Gong Wei, Guangyuan, since I was a child, and I went out and played together when I was a teenager. Now I think about it, it's still vivid in my mind. I don't think that I'm a father now."

Cui Jun's elder brother already has two sons and one daughter, and Cui Jun also has two sons. Meng Jian and Shi Tao are probably busy with local official business and have no time to take care of their children, so they all have only one daughter.

Meng Jian stroked his beard and laughed happily: "When it comes to having children, how can we be as good as Dexing and Yuansheng? Zhang and Su, two elders, often send people to urge this matter to replenish qi, is like a common thing, which really makes me jealous, hahaha..."

He said this and both Zhang Long and Su Mao blushed.

The two old men Zhang Ding and Su Shuang had such a strong desire to hold grandsons, which was simply shocking. They often came to urge their sons to have more children, and for this reason, they looked for concubines for them. Now, among the people, there are only two of them, and the number of concubines and children exceeds five.

"In front of His Majesty, there is no need to make fun of my brother..."

Liu He said, "Haha, this is a good thing. We will grow old after all, and this foundation will be handed over to future generations sooner or later. I still hope that you can give birth to more talents, otherwise, my Han Dynasty will be out of nowhere in a hundred years?"

When he said this, Cui Jun, who was standing by, suddenly remembered something.

"Ah, by the way, when Your Majesty mentioned marriage and offspring, I have something to report to you, and I want to ask Your Majesty to give you a marriage with you."

When Liu He heard this, he became curious.

"Oh? Zhouping already has a wife, why do you still want to marry? Is it because your wife is not virtuous and plans to choose another virtuous wife? Why haven't I heard of the act of honoring a wife that is not aware of the moral character? Three wives and four concubines are normal, but Zhouping doesn't want to become famous and want to abandon his wife. This is not something a virtuous gentleman should do."

Cui Jun was amused and crying: "Your Majesty wants to go where you want. I am not for myself, but for General Deng Yuan and General Wang Han."

Liu He was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted.

"The meaning of Zhouping refers to the marriage between the two daughters of Cai and Zhao?"

Cui Jun replied respectfully: "Yes. General Wang Han wanted to abuse Cai Wenji in the Hun camp but failed. Afterwards, he blamed the lord for the stick and stayed in bed for many days. Seeing that he was not malicious, the daughter of Cai felt pity and took the initiative to take care of him. General Wang was sincere and cute. The two of them got along for a long time and their feelings gradually arise."

"As for General Deng Yuan and Zhao Ying, haha, let's talk about it by Mr. Zhao himself."

When Zhao Yu heard this, he looked happy.

"I report to Your Majesty, General Deng Yuan is very fond of talent. Since the first meeting with Shangdang, the general has often wanted to be close to his daughter, but the daughter ignored him at first. However, when the general was free, he often came to the mansion in his name of teaching martial arts and gun techniques. Over time, he developed friendship and wanted to make a private lifelong decision. Therefore, the old minister dared to ask His Majesty to marry him and fulfill the two."

"Okay, it's really a great thing."

Liu He was very happy when he heard this.

"Ziyang is young and promising. In terms of shooting skills, our army is almost second only to Zilong. Now that he is not young, he should have started a family long ago. In the past, Gong Yi and others have also become a matchmaker for him. I think he is all focused on Ling Er, so he has been delayed to this day. Now that my boyfriend is born, it is a good marriage. How can I not agree?"

"As for Dafeng...ah..."

Speaking of this, Liu He looked a little disappointed: "His brother Cheng Mian, when he was transferred to the county in his early years, he followed me and killed the enemy bravely. However, God was jealous of talent. In the battle of Shuofang County, he died under the knife of Hu, leaving only this cousin, and he made many military achievements in the army. I owe him to Xiang. Now that I can get the daughter of Mr. Cai as my wife, I can rest assured if she is taken care of in the future."

Liu He thought for a while and said, "Gong Saner, go and invite the queen here. I want to be the media with the queen."

Zhao Yu and Zhao Jin and his son immediately knelt in front of them and cried with joy.

"Your Majesty is very kind, even if I die, I will never repay you."
