The ideal of Confucianism is to cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country, and govern the country at the third level. Many people's ambition is to calm the world. In fact, it is not easy to manage the family, let alone govern the country.
People who always talk about "governing a big country is like cooking a small freshman" either do not understand the true meaning of this sentence at all, or are empty talkers who only know how to talk.
Just like many people in later generations even lived a tight life for a family of several people, they thought that national affairs were very simple, and I could do it.
Liu Xie has been the emperor for more than ten years and has gathered his experience of being a human being for two lifetimes. Even though he has been committed to letting the three dukes be responsible for specific affairs, he also knows that governing the country is not easy, and it is not enough to just say it.
As for increasing horse prices, problems that seem to be solved by an edict may trigger many unexpected reactions. If you don’t want to change your orders every day and slap them in the face, you must first consider the chain reaction that may be triggered, at least to the heart.
If you have any idea, you won't be confused temporarily.
Therefore, when Yang Xiu came to meet at this time, he wanted to impeach Situ Yang Biao. Of course, he did not make a decision immediately, but instead he would blow the wind in advance so that he could express his feelings at a party later.
Such a gathering is a rare big gathering. Not only the officials of various prefectures and temples that are in attendance must attend, but all the officials of various counties who come to plan and plan to attend. Any news will soon spread throughout the world.
"I understand." Liu Xie handed over the document to Ohashi, asked her to mark it, and reminded him to take a closer look later.
Yang Xiu bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. But I have another unhappy request."
"explain."
"Please publish your name after your decision."
"Why?" Liu Xie frowned.
This is not the time to destroy relatives for justice. Yang Xiu was the candidate of Situ. If he bears this reputation of unfiliality, it will be difficult to deal with in the future.
Besides, in his opinion, there was no need for Yang Xiu to write a letter. He just needed to know Yang Xiu's contribution.
"No one can take this responsibility if he is not a minister."
"Da Zu, do you know what the consequences are?"
"I know." Yang Xiu smiled. "I am unfilial and I am willing to travel thousands of miles to serve in front of the Western Regions."
Liu Xie was stunned and then understood Yang Xiu’s intention.
After a long time, this kid wanted to follow him in the west.
"Ancestor De, you are a bit far away from the way you go to the Western Regions." Liu Xie smiled. "Why, I'm worried that Ling Zun, Ling Tang refused to let me offend someone?"
"Your Majesty is wise."
Liu Xie snorted, shook his hand and signaled Yang Xiu to retreat.
Yang Xiu was indeed a good helper when he was willing to go to the west. But how to convince Yang Biao and his wife, especially Mrs. Yuan, was annoying.
That was not an old lady who was easy to talk to. To some extent, it was even more difficult than Yuan Shu.
Even if he was the emperor, he didn't feel confident that he could make Mrs. Yuan obey orders.
——
Yang Xiu went out, and Liu Xie was in a daze for a moment.
Xun Wenqian came in and saw that Liu Xie was thinking, so she didn't dare to disturb him. She took a lighter pace and asked Daqiao what was going on.
Daqiao didn't dare to say it, but just smiled apologetically. Xiaoqiao's mouth was faster and he was about to speak, but Daqiao stopped him.
Seeing this, Xun Wenqian knew the secret of the matter and was not convenient to disclose it, so she didn't ask much.
She asked Daqiao to tell the emperor that Mrs. Tang was here and wanted to see him before the banquet to see if the emperor had time.
Daqiao was about to answer, but Liu Xie came to his senses. When he saw Xun Wenqian, he took the initiative to ask. When he learned that it was Mrs. Tang, he immediately asked Xun Wenqian to invite her in.
After a while, Mrs. Tang came in, and a little girl was following her. She was about four or five years old, with a round face, big eyes, and pink and cute.
"This is……"
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for my presumptuousness." Mrs. Tang held the little girl's hand and stepped forward to bow down. "This is my elder brother's daughter Wan, who is here to follow me and my father and brother to see you. I like you very much, so I'll keep it.
Be your companion by your side and take it easy to bring it to you.
Look at the holy face."
Liu Xie couldn't help but glance at Xun Wenqian.
Xun Wenqian probably knew about this, but she didn't say it before and didn't say it just now, so it was a bit intentional.
Xun Wenqian shrugged with helplessness.
"Please forgive me for my crime. This is my personal intention and has nothing to do with noble Xun." Mrs. Tang said calmly: "The former king died young and had no children. I was not abandoned by Your Majesty and was given bloodline. I am grateful.
I am lazy by nature and have not become a mother. I am afraid that I am not well-maintained, so I practice first and wait for the future.”
Liu Xie waved his hand and signaled Mrs. Tang not to say anything.
No matter how you listen, there is a sad atmosphere.
If there is a possibility, who doesn’t want a child of his own?
After asking the little girl's name and chatting for a few more words, Liu Xie rewarded two small gifts and asked Xun Wenqian to take the little girl to the side for a while.
The bridge and the small bridge also tactfully avoided it, leaving only Liu Xie and Mrs. Tang in the hall.
Mrs. Tang was a little embarrassed and bowed her head and said nothing.
Liu Xie thought about it for a while and said, "Sister-in-law, I don't know what you think, but I really don't mean anything else. I just think you can't be so lonely for the rest of your life, and your brother can't be without blood. This is the best I can think of
A good idea, please forgive me for your rashness."
Mrs. Tang bowed and said, "Your Majesty is so heavy. The royal bloodline cannot be confused. I just came to accompany me for a while and had no other intentions. I am not only grateful for your care, but also grateful. I am just regretting the blessing of the former king.
Bo, but failed to leave His Majesty Tang Di's love, but instead let me enjoy the blessing of an outsider."
Liu Xie hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, don't say that. Since you have entered the palace, you are my Liu family, not an outsider. The palace is your home. Whenever you want to come, you must not come.
There is restraint."
Mrs. Tang smiled and thanked her, then sighed again, and said, "It's a pity that Your Majesty is about to fight the West. It will be difficult to see Your Majesty again in the future."
"Uh..." Liu Xie was speechless.
How to answer this?
Mrs. Tang stood up. "The dinner is about to begin, so I won't disturb you much. Ninety-nine will return to one, and it will be a good fortune. The ninth year of Jian'an will probably be a year of leaving a name in history and opening up a new situation.
I wish Your Majesty a happy New Year and everything goes well.”
"I wish my sister-in-law all the best in the new year with my sister-in-law."
Mrs. Tang bowed and left with the little girl.
Xun Wenqian stood aside, looked at Mrs. Tang's back, and then looked at Liu Xie, who was restless, with his eyes flashing slightly. "Your Majesty wishes my sister-in-law all the best, can you tell what her greatest wish is?"
Liu Xie turned to look at Xun Wenqian, confused for a moment.
He really didn't know what Mrs. Tang's greatest wish was.
Money and status are not important to her, at least they cannot be the greatest wish. Want a child of her own? Maybe it is, but due to her special identity, this wish is destined to be unfulfilled. Even if he is the emperor,
Powerless.
Then what else she wants?
Liu Xie thought for a while. "Is my sister-in-law's father and brother here?"
"Yes, I just arrived the day before yesterday."
"Schedule after the New Year to see their abilities and arrange a suitable official position."
