Chapter 1965 An Opportunity to Change

Emperor Liu's meaning was already obvious, which surprised those who were familiar with Emperor Liu, especially the servants in the palace. Not only was he safe and sound, but there was a sign of promotion.Even if it is "Wang Wandou", the neck is not so hard.
After thinking for a while, Wang Yucheng asked a question that surprised others: "I dare to ask Your Majesty, what role do you want to appoint?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Liu felt a little bored for no reason, and looked at Wang Yucheng with a strange look: "I originally planned to let you return to Beijing to take charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but from what you said, it seems that I have other ideas!"

Wang Yucheng was a little surprised. The head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was a high-ranking official of the third rank, a giant in the real power department of the court. According to his expectation, Emperor Liu would at most give him a bachelor's confession, or an attendant official.

It has to be said that Wang Yucheng was a little tempted in an instant. It is hard for him to imagine what kind of power the combination of the power of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Wang Yucheng can exert.

However, facing Emperor Liu's scrutinizing gaze, Wang Yucheng calmed down a little, and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the power of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is so heavy that I am afraid that I am not qualified for it. Besides, I also worked in the The Metropolitan Procuratorate can neither cooperate with officials, nor is it disgusted by courtiers.

Based on my personal aspirations, I would rather be in the northwest, teaching agriculture and animal husbandry, and raising the people than in Beijing.The minister advocates the innovation of poetry and prose, and he should also practice it personally, and be the first in the world, otherwise, how can he convince the public? "

Wang Yucheng's words were quite sincere, but when they fell into Emperor Liu's ears, he always felt so uncomfortable.However, no matter how much pressure was put on him, Wang Yucheng always looked frank.

The scrutiny gradually turned into a stare, and Emperor Liu finally gave up. He was annoyed and said helplessly, "Wang Yucheng, when can you follow what I want, just once?"

"Your Majesty." Wang Yucheng wanted to speak.

However, when he opened his mouth, Emperor Liu was shocked, as if he had heard what he was going to say, his mind was buzzing, and he immediately interrupted him: "Say something that shouldn't be said, but sometimes, I really want to kill you!" about you!"

Wang Yucheng bowed deeply: "I don't regret my death! However, it is more difficult than death if you let the minister not speak, or speak against your heart."

Emperor Liu laughed again, but this time the smile was more calm, and the laughter gradually disappeared. Emperor Liu suddenly looked at Zhao Pu and asked, "Zhao Qing, in your opinion, how should I arrange Wang Yucheng?"

Zhao Pu knew Emperor Liu very well, and he could tell whether Emperor Liu was asking a real question or just meaning it just by listening to his tone of voice. For example, at this time, Zhao Pu said very wittily: "Listen to the hadith!"

"Longyou Inspectorate!" Sure enough, Emperor Liu said directly without any hesitation. "Excellent! Very suitable!" Zhao Pu echoed, "It's just right for Wang Yucheng to be the inspector of Longyou! However, how should we arrange it for Longyou's inspector at that time?"

"Who is it?" Emperor Liu asked.

Zhao Pu: "Wang Kegong, the grandson of the late Yongqing Duke Wang Yanchao!"

"How long have you been here?"

"Less than two years!"

"That's not too short!" Emperor Liu said in a cold tone: "For such a long time, have you not noticed the public opinion on the people's livelihood in Longyou, or are you just turning a blind eye?
It happened to change positions with Wang Yucheng, and let Wang Kegong go to Shanzhou to serve as the governor!Let me pay attention, if the situation in Shanzhou cannot be reversed within a year, then he will no longer be an official! "

"Yes!"

In fact, Emperor Liu was born under Gu Nian's Wang Kegong. After all, Wang Yanchao had only been dead for a year, so he had to be given some kindness, otherwise, Wang Kegong would not have been demoted so easily.

Wang Kegong is like this, then other people can imagine that it is not easy to pass this level.Wang Yucheng has already exposed the situation in Longyou to the sky, and under the wrath of Tianwei, what kind of unpredictable shocks will occur in Longyou, Hexi, and even the entire Northwest officialdom and politics.

As soon as the arrangement for Wang Yucheng was agreed upon, Emperor Liu turned his firepower to Zhao Pu again, and said with a serious face: "Zhao Pu, I don't care what you thought about it at the beginning, but now, Wang Yucheng has made it very clear that Helong's bad governance, people's livelihood The hardships are so severe, if the court does not pay attention to it, I will accuse you of dereliction of duty and neglect of government!
Send a special person to the Northwest to investigate secretly, up to Daozhou, down to the counties and towns, compare what Wang Yucheng said to me one by one, investigate and deal with it according to law, and set things right! "

Hearing Emperor Liu's order, Zhao Pu did not directly agree, but asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, I don't know how to measure it, how to grasp it?"

"What do you mean?" From Emperor Liu's point of view, Zhao Pu's question seemed a bit strange, and he immediately asked back, "What do you mean when you talk about proportion?"

Zhao Pu cupped his hands and said, "If the situation in Helong is really as serious as Wang Yucheng said, or even worse, how should the court deal with it?"

Emperor Liu knew that Zhao Pu was asking for his own words, so he calmly fell into thinking. After thinking for a long time, Emperor Liu looked down at the calm old fox in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Corrupt officials, corrupt officials, fish and meat of the common people, still Strictly punished by the law, official crimes will be given a first class, and official crimes will be given a third class!"

After finishing speaking, but seeing that Zhao Pu was still looking at him, and his eyes were silent, Emperor Liu was a little annoyed, and vented, he took a picture of the imperial case: "If it is really necessary, stop the Western Expedition, appease the officers and soldiers, pay taxes, and reassure the people. !"

Hearing Emperor Liu's stance, Zhao Pu finally expressed his stance: "Yes! I will strictly follow His Majesty's will and return Helong to peace!"

"Taiping." Emperor Liu murmured. Hearing these two words now, he always felt harsh, and even felt that they were mocking himself.

After a while, after waking up from the trance, Emperor Liu solemnly confessed to Wang Yucheng: "I hope that in the position of the inspector in Longyou, you can practice your will, plead for the people more, and write more about the people's livelihood. I will resume your right to play the secret chapter. If there is anything, you can directly report it to me! You are right, I have not been on tour for many years, what kind of world is the big man today, to me, It’s also really strange.”

"I can only repay you with loyalty and live up to your Majesty's expectations!" From Emperor Liu's tone, he heard a bit of powerlessness and sentimentality, and Wang Yucheng was also touched in his heart, and sincerely worshiped.

Emperor Liu was a little tired. He noticed Kou Zhun from the corner of his eye, but he didn't ask him about his mood in Guanneidao. He directly said to Zhao Pu: "Kou Zhun, Zhao Qing will arrange the tasks!"

Zhao Pu also looked at Kou Zhun, and Kou Zhun subconsciously bowed and cupped his hands.After pondering for a while, Zhao Pu suggested: "Your Majesty, how about promoting officials in Luoyang Mansion?"

"That's it!" Emperor Liu made the decision directly, and then looked at Kou Zhun: "Kou Zhun, work hard! Among your peers, even if you count the noble children, you are at the forefront, don't let down your ambition and opportunity !"

"Yes!" Probably Emperor Liu's words contained some real feelings, and Kou Zhun kowtowed to the ground with some emotion: "I must remember His Majesty's instruction!"
