I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Lu Xuan moved bustlingly in the Western Regions, planning to go to Dawan to trouble him after the move has stabilized.

And Liu Tan faced many opposing voices at the Xiaochao meeting.

To be honest, he never knew that he was so popular and popular.

After Liu Che threw out the news that he was going to take over the feudal clan at the Xiaochao meeting, he didn't intend to discuss with everyone, but only said that he would choose the Prime Minister and the Royal Doctor.

As for the officials below these two, this can be chosen by the princes and kings themselves.

Of course, when the team was deployed at the beginning, it was naturally Liu Che who prepared it for his son.

His first few sons who were thrown into the fief all did so.

As a result, as soon as this topic was brought up, someone over there took the lead in opposing it.

Because the position of prime minister was vacant, the first person to stand up was Doctor Yu Shi.

Liu Tan was very shocked. Doctor Yu Shi had criticized him for running a greenhouse before, why now he started to take his side again?

No... No, it's not considered to be on his side, but to obstruct him.

Because Doctor Yu Shi stood up directly and said forcefully: "I think it's wrong! The fifth prince has contributed to the country, and it's not appropriate to set the fiefdom as Shuofang Prefecture because of love and reason!"

As soon as he stood up, the others followed suit and expressed their inappropriateness.

Liu Che glanced at Liu Tan with a smile and asked, "How is it?"

The ministers were a little surprised for a moment, and all looked at Liu Tan.

Liu Tan was also dumbfounded at this time. He thought that persuading Liu Che would be enough, but he never expected to persuade these ministers again.

Although these people are indeed for his own good, but...it is too difficult.

Liu Tan coughed lightly: "Suofang Prefecture is also a pretty good place..."

"How could Your Majesty behave like this!" Doctor Yushi did not respond to Liu Tan, but looked up at Liu Che condemningly.

Liu Che chuckled: "It's not my idea. He must go by himself. Even I can't convince him. If you have confidence, you can help me convince him by the way."

The ministers looked at each other for a while, and they didn't quite believe what Liu Che said.

Even if Liu Che can't be said to be arbitrary now, it's not much better than that. No one can make him change his mind about things he has made up his mind about and things he thinks are wrong.

What did the fifth prince do that even the emperor compromised?

It's not just love that can explain it.

Liu Tan met the gazes of the ministers, and his scalp became numb for a moment. It was difficult for others to persuade Liu Che.

But for Liu Tan, it was not that difficult, and Liu Che was not unreasonable, it really made him feel that there was no problem, and he would agree.

But the ministers of the DPRK and China are not so easy to fool around. The main reason is that there are many of them, and their ideas are different. Everyone has their own opinions. When the time comes, he will need to persuade everyone one by one. Don't even think about the ability to fight with the Confucianists!

Liu Tan also didn't expect that it was just a vassal, and the ministers of the court and the central government were so opposed. What's wrong with this world?Don't they think that the clan is all moths?

While wondering, he put on an upright look and shouted first: "Everyone, listen to me first!"

Among other things, this sound really stunned everyone, Liu Tan looked around and said: "Shuofang Prefecture is what I want to go to, and I think it very clearly. As for the reason, it's just one sentence: The king bears the responsibility of the country, and the prince guards the gate of the country."

There was a moment of silence in the court hall.

Liu Tan continued: "I know that Shuofang Prefecture is a dangerous place, but because of this, my father and elder brother are working hard for the big man, and I don't want to sit back and enjoy the benefits, and I have no other skills, but I heard that since After the first battle of robbery, the small countries in the Western Regions that were about to make trouble before have settled down a lot, not to mention that the big man is now in close contact with Captain Zuo, so maybe I can play a role there."

After he finished speaking, he observed the expressions of everyone, and found that some people were thoughtful, some people nodded repeatedly, and some...were wiping tears?

He still understood the first two, what happened to those who wiped their tears?

In particular, it actually included Doctor Yu Shi.

Even if the royal censors of the Han Dynasty did not have the power to inspect all officials in later generations, they were still powerful figures. How could such a person be moved so easily after going through the ups and downs of the officialdom?

Doctor Yushi wiped away his tears while muttering: "The king bears the responsibility of the country, and the prince guards the gate of the country."

Only then did Liu Tan suddenly realize that he was hit by this sentence.

This is normal. In fact, there was no obvious distinction between civil and military officials in the Han Dynasty. For example, many of the prime ministers fought against the Huns, or the most important military achievements left over from history are everyone's default.

In this case, a more passionate slogan can always touch the heartstrings more.

Liu Tan felt a little guilty. In fact, he translated this sentence from "the emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country".

But he didn't dare to say the original words. This sentence originally referred to Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty moving the capital to Beijing and Emperor Chongzhen hanging Meishan. If he really said it, he might be locked up in a small dark room.

It's good to change it, and you can also flatter Liu Che, praising him for his hard work for the big man.

When Liu talked about this, he raised his head and glanced at Liu Che. Sure enough, he saw the corners of Liu Che's lips slightly curled up. He was obviously in a good mood.

After chanting a few more sentences, the doctor Yushi raised his head and said, "It is really shabby for the prince to lead the Shuofang Prefecture. The population of Shuofang Prefecture is not large enough to be a country. Please think again, Your Majesty."

Liu Che glanced at Liu Tan and said simply: "In this case, then Bingzhou and Liangzhou will be enfeoffed together as the Northern Kingdom, and the fifth prince will be named the Northern King."

Liu Tan was stunned when he heard this, not because Liu Che really gave him Xiliang, which is now Liangzhou, but the most important thing is that he gave him Bingzhou together!

Judging from the map, he basically gave him the entire Inner Mongolia of later generations as a fief!

This place is too big.

Liu Tan was a little uneasy and said, "This... isn't it too big?"

Liu Ju on the side immediately said: "It's not big, the place is vast and sparsely populated, but the population is only over 90."

But...more than 90...

Liu Tan once again felt that he had never seen the world, more than 90...for a moment he felt that Alexander, what should I do?

He swallowed, and flinched a little. Before, he only thought that he would be free after going to the fief, and he could even do whatever he wanted, but he never thought that he would be responsible for the lives and deaths of so many people.

But soon it occurred to him that even if he wanted to be responsible, it would depend on whether the Prime Minister would give in.

By this time, Liu Che had basically grasped all the power of the vassal states, and the domestic affairs of the vassal states were handled by the prime minister, and the very important royal doctor was also appointed by the court.

As for the officials below, although they can be appointed and removed freely, so what if they are actually appointed and removed?The status of the Prime Minister is indestructible. Even if those people are grateful to the princes and kings at the beginning, they will turn against the Prime Minister in the end.

Let's put it this way, if the country's relationship is good, maybe it will be promoted to the court in the future. Although the country's prime minister is said to be a prime minister, his actual salary is two thousand shi. of the road.

If it can catch the eyes of the Prime Minister, what would be better than bringing it to Chang'an?

So the current princes and kings actually have the only right to ask for taxes from the prime minister. After all, the taxes on the fiefs belong to them, and the rest is... just play by yourself.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Tan insisted on choosing Shuofang Prefecture. The main reason is that this place is remote and dangerous. Most people don't like to go there. Those who will follow him will be excluded if they are capable. Liu Tan can find a way Shi En subdued, it would be better if he didn't have the ability, isn't it easy to overtake him?

Even people with no ability may want to rely on him more.

However, no matter what, he asked for the fiefdom himself, and he has to bear it himself for good or bad in the future.

After this wave has passed, it will be on the right track-appointing the Prime Minister and the Royal Doctor.

This is rarely mentioned at court meetings. It is Liu Che who directly asks the relevant departments to choose the right person. Among them is to check the resume, then find a conversation, confirm that the other party has this willingness and it is convenient, and then report the name of the person, and finally Liu Che selected.

The current election is basically the last hurdle Liu Che has set for Liu Tan.

He doesn't mind backtracking if no one else does.

The king takes care of the country, the prince guards the gates of the country. This sentence sounds very exciting, but whose son will feel sorry for it. The big man is already very powerful, so why do he need his son to take risks?

What?You said that the vassal states of King Yan also bordered on the Xiongnu?

Can a beloved son be the same as an unloved son?

Liu Che has always had double standards. When he came to Liu Tan, he tried to prevent him from going. When he went to Yan Wang Liu Dan, when his son wrote a letter to complain, he directly sent a policy to Liu Dan, encouraging him to guard the border and become a The fence auxiliary wing of the Han Dynasty.

Everyone is already used to him, so when the words "Northern Prime Minister" appeared in front of them, many people looked at each other in blank dismay.

After being moved, rationality returned, and everyone didn't want to talk.

The official positions that can participate in the Xiaochaohui are not low. Most people will not become the prime minister of the country, and the small number of people either have potential or have power behind them. They are working hard for the position of Jiuqing, so they will not choose to go To be the prime minister of a vassal state, but no matter who they nominate, it is an act of enmity.

Many people had heard rumors that the fifth prince and the sixth prince would be crowned kings, and even rumors that the emperor had chosen Qi as the fief for the fifth prince had already spread. At that time, everyone was gearing up to compete for the Qi kingdom official position.

Now... it's all dumb.

The hall was quiet, everyone knew that they shouldn't show face to the Fifth Prince, but they really couldn't open their mouths.

Liu Che looked at Liu Tan, and just wanted to say that there is no prime minister, so he can't be a feudal prince, and let him go back and think about it.

Before he could open his mouth, he saw a person standing up suddenly.

Liu Che looked up and found that it was Huo Guang.

Holding the court wat in his hand, Huo Guang saluted Liu Che and said, "I would like to accompany the king of the northern border to the northern border country."

Liu Che raised his eyebrows in surprise, while Liu Tan was startled.

Not to mention him, even Liu Ju and even other ministers were a little shocked.

Huo Guang is a special existence in the court. Everyone knows that although he is only the captain of the car now, and the great credit he gave last time was only given to Doctor Guanglu, sooner or later he will be given an official position like Jiuqingbucheng, and In the future, he will definitely have a place in the position of Jiuqing, and it is not impossible for the doctor Yushi or the prime minister.

But now what does he say?Going to the northern border country to be the prime minister?

Is your brain okay?

Liu Che asked, "Have you thought about it?"

Huo Guang said sternly: "I have made up my mind. My elder brother regards exterminating the Xiongnu as his lifelong goal. I am not talented. He is not half as good as his elder brother in terms of literary and military skills, but he is also willing to inherit his legacy and assist the king of the northern border to guard the border."

After he finished speaking, there was an instant uproar in the hall, this time it was even more lively than when Liu Tan asked Shuofang Prefecture to be his fiefdom.

In front of Liu Che, Huo Guang expressed his intention to follow Liu Tan's lead. This is basically contrary to Liu Che's attitude towards princes and kings now!

Even if Liu Tan is Liu Che's son, Liu Che doesn't care too much about it, but what about the crown prince?

Huo Guang and the prince are still cousins ​​even if they are not related by blood. However, combined with the fact that Huo Guang has never shown obvious political inclinations, everyone is a little subtle for a while.

Not being related by blood means that Huo Guang is likely to stand on the side of others. Could it be the Fifth Prince...

No, even if you want to choose the fifth prince, you can't go to the backcountry with others.

Liu Tan couldn't sit still, looked at Huo Guang and reminded: "You have to think about it, you know the environment in the Western Regions, the northern border countries are no better than the Western Regions."

Huo Guang smiled freely: "I have thought it over carefully, and I ask Your Majesty to agree."

Liu Tan looked at Huo Guang seriously for a while, confirmed that he was serious, then turned to look at Liu Che.

Liu Che obviously knew Huo Guang better than Liu Tangen. He didn't ask Huo Guang, but just looked at Liu Tan and asked, "He said he wants to go with you, so what kind of official position will you give him?"

Liu Tan said decisively: "Prime Minister, I would like to worship Captain Feng Che as the Prime Minister."

This is a top-level civil servant, even if he is not a top-level civil servant seedling now, everyone will go with him. Could it be that he is still reluctant to be a prime minister?

After hearing this, Liu Che said casually: "Very well, I will order Dr. Guanglu to entrust Huo Guang, Captain of Che, as Prime Minister of the Northern Territory."

Everyone:? ? ? ?What about the appointment from the imperial court?Why let the king of the north decide for himself?
