Chapter 184 You are a tyrant like King Qin!(1/2)
"Mom~~~"
When Liu Chang jumped into the Jiaofang Hall, Empress Lu was still looking at the endless memorials in front of her.
Empress Lu promulgated too many policies. In just three months, she issued more decrees than Liu Ying had issued in the past two years. Although these policies were implemented by ministers, the specific direction was still controlled by Lu.
In the hands of the empress, Empress Lu governed politics in a completely different way from Liu Ying's.
Liu Ying gradually reduced the barriers on the people, allowing them to develop agriculture and the economy without interfering in agricultural and commercial matters, reducing their burdens and restoring national strength as soon as possible. Empress Lu, on the other hand, strongly intervened in everything, through
own policies to speed up this recovery.
To give the simplest example, during Liu Ying's period, officials were not allowed to delay farming and mulberry farming, allowing the people to farm with peace of mind. During Queen Lu's period, she ordered all counties and counties to recommend outstanding farmers, encourage them, and personally write letters of commendation. Think about it
An ordinary farmer can be commended by the temple for his ability in farming. What an encouragement this is.
At the same time, she also ordered that farmers who had escaped from mountains, lakes or migrated to other places in the past were allowed to return to their hometowns and return their fields and houses. Officials were not allowed to beat, scold or discriminate against people because of their past wrongdoings.
The common people walked out of the mountains and forests again and returned under the rule of the Han Dynasty.
She ordered the ministers to set an example and release the ministers. Officials in various places strictly limited the number of ministers and asked them to return to their hometowns to work in agriculture. Officials must strictly prevent local large households from accepting ministers.
He also laid off a large number of soldiers and allowed them to return to their hometowns. They were given priority to land and properly resettled, so that more local officials could use them.
He also ordered all the princely states to imitate the temple administration and not to establish their own laws!
If the rule of Wenjing in history laid the foundation for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, then the period during which Empress Lu was in power left the foundation for the rule of Wenjing.
Because of this, her workload is not at the same level as Liu Ying's. She wakes up early and stays late at night, and goes out from time to time to check in person. There are also countless ministers who come to report important events. Liu Chang even wants to have a peaceful meal with her.
It's difficult.
Sensing Liu Chang's arrival, Empress Lu put down the bamboo slips in her hand and moved her neck, making a clicking sound.
Liu Chang stood behind Empress Lu with a smile and gently squeezed her shoulders.
Queen Lu was silent for a moment and then asked: "How much do you want?"
"for free!"
"Who did you hit?"
"No fight!"
"oh."
Empress Lu then picked up the bamboo slips in her hand again. Liu Chang grinned and asked in a low voice: "Mom, all the county guards in the Tang Dynasty are outstanding people. However, most of the talented people in the temple are domineering and rude.
, I will go to Tang State in the future, how can I control them?"
"You want justice? He can't give it to you..."
"What did my mother say? There is no shortage of stubborn donkeys in the Tang Dynasty. I heard that Wang Ling is an upright man..."
"Then I can't help you. If you can convince him, take him away...he won't listen to my order."
"Hahaha, as long as I have the words "grandma", it will be fine!"
Liu Chang was so happy that he squeezed his shoulders even more vigorously.
Just as I was squeezing my shoulders, a close servant suddenly came in and said, "Your Majesty, Marquis Jiancheng is here to pay his respects!"
"Let him in."
Lu Shizhi walked in angrily, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Queen Mother, this Xuanyi can no longer be left alone!!"
As he was talking, he suddenly saw Liu Chang standing behind Empress Lu. He put away his anger and said with a smile: "Chang is here too."
Empress Lu didn't even look at him and asked coldly: "What did Xuanyi do to make you so angry?"
"Not long ago, you ennobled several of my Lu family as marquises. Today, they were arrested by Xuanyi. I sent people to declare the order, but he even captured the people I sent! I heard that Lu
Anger has been killed by him, and several others have also been beaten into inhuman shape by him... He is in Tingwei's prison!"
"Oh? Who did you hear that Lu Yi has been executed?"
"These are the words of Wang Tianqi, the chief supervisor of Tingwei!"
Lu Shizhi said angrily: "Why not let Wang Tianqi take the position of Tingwei? He is also an upright person, and he is close to us..."
Empress Lu suddenly raised her head and stared at Lu Shizhi. Lu Shizhi seemed to have been strangled by the neck, and immediately stopped talking. Empress Lu stared at him, "If I remember correctly, Marquis Jiancheng is only a lieutenant. What is the lieutenant?"
When did you start to take charge of the selection of Tingwei?"
Lu Shizhi was shocked and hurriedly bowed, "I don't dare, it's just that Xuanyi..."
"Lieutenant, just do your own thing. Whatever happens to Lieutenant Ting, Lieutenant Ting will tell me... and next time, you, Lieutenant, don't do it again."
Lu Shizhi was so frightened that he hurriedly apologized and then left angrily.
Liu Chang looked at his uncle's back and shook his head helplessly. The older his uncle got, the more confused he became. Now my mother doesn't allow the Lu clan members to call her by the name of a relative. They all call her the Queen Mother. This has already happened.
The expression is very obvious, why can't uncle see through it?
"Does this matter have anything to do with you?"
"What's up?"
"It seems they are related, why should we arrest them?"
"These people are too arrogant and go around ruining my mother's reputation. I also have a filial piety..."
Empress Lu ignored this bastard and looked at the attendant on the side, asking him to call Wang Tianqi. This Wang Tianqi was not very old. He once fought with Lu Ze, Marquis of Zhou Lu, and had always had a good relationship with the Lu family.
, who was previously named Prime Minister of Liang for his contribution to the campaign against Chen Xi, and assisted Liu Chang's fifth brother Liu Hui.
After Empress Lu came to power, she brought this confidant back to the temple from Liang State, and arranged him next to Xuanyi to jointly take charge of the affairs of the imperial court.
Soon, Wang Tianqi appeared in the Jiaofang Hall. This man was tall, dull-looking, and didn't look very clever. He respectfully paid homage to the Queen Mother and the Prince of Tang.
Liu Chang looked at him, smiled and asked, "Is your lady still throwing clothes away now?"
Wang Tianqi's face darkened, and Empress Lu said displeasedly: "Don't be rude to General Wang!"
Liu Chang asked this for a reason. It is said that although this general fought bravely and was strong-willed, he had one flaw... he was afraid of his wife. When Emperor Gao was touring various places, he was a guest at his home. In the middle of the night, he heard
I was very surprised when I heard the sound of heavy objects being thrown to the ground.
The next day, Emperor Gao called Wang Tianqi and asked, "Why did you hear a strange noise last night?"
Wang Tianqi's face turned red with embarrassment and he hurriedly said: "My wife is throwing away my clothes!"
Liu Bang was confused, shook his head and said, "How can throwing clothes make such a sound?"
Wang Tianqi replied helplessly: "I am in my clothes."
Emperor Gao laughed when he heard this.
From then on, this general had a nickname, General Throwing Clothes. Later he became a prime minister, and the Liang people called him Throwing Clothes Prime Minister. Now... he will probably replace Donkey Tingwei and become Throwing Yi Tingwei.
Empress Lu said helplessly: "My son is naughty, I hope the general will not blame him."
Wang Tianqi shook his head and said seriously: "I don't dare. When Emperor Gao was still alive, he often asked this question..."
Empress Lu asked him to sit in front of her and asked Tingwei many things. Wang Tianqi answered them one by one. When Empress Lu asked about the Lu family, General Wang said seriously: "Wei Ting killed Lu Anyi, and the rest
People are imprisoned.”
"Why don't you complain but fight to kill?"
Empress Lu's face suddenly became a little ugly.
"Lu An killed people and took wealth. A merchant disappeared earlier, and Tingwei found out that he was related to this matter."
"Well done!"
Empress Lu suddenly said, she stood up, looked at Wang Tianqi, and said: "Xuan Gong has other uses. In the future, you may be responsible for this court captain. Please continue Xuan Gong's style and deal with such evil people.
No mercy, kill without telling anyone!"
"only!!"
Wang Tianqi hurriedly saluted, and Empress Lu rewarded him with something and asked him to leave.
After he left, Liu Chang said angrily: "If I had known he was a thief, I should have cut off his hands and feet! Every good thing in these dandies!"
Hearing Liu Chang's words, Empress Lu snorted coldly and said: "It's just a joke at fifty steps and a hundred steps at a time. You still have the nerve to call them playboys? Aren't you the same on weekdays?"
Liu Chang was angry and shouted: "This is different. We never bully others. We all take our own things and distribute them to the people. When I eat sheep, I only eat those from my uncle's house!"
"Yes, yes, you are the most kind person in Chang'an... even the dogs in Chang'an will run away when they see you!"
Liu Chang lowered his head and muttered something, but did not refute.
"Sir... the ministers can't touch people like Lu. If you encounter someone like this again, you can take care of it yourself. Even if you kill them, there will be no problem!"
Liu Chang was stunned and asked softly: "Is it okay to kill everyone? Can uncle be allowed to do it too?"
Seeing his mother's face becoming increasingly unkind, Liu Chang slipped out of Jiaofang Hall in time.
"Brothers!!!"
Liu Chang looked at the good brother in front of him excitedly and held his hand tightly.
The good brother laughed and said with a smile: "Long time no see, the king has grown a lot stronger! He is almost as tall as me!"
