I am not in the position of Zen [Three Kingdoms]

Lu Zhi had a resolute personality and was not afraid of power. He served as the prefect of Jiujiang and Lujiang successively as a civil servant.Moreover, he is a well-known Confucianist in the country, with many disciples, he is indeed worthy of being a Sangong.

Regarding the suggestions of the officials, Liu Xie was not in a hurry.

After Dong Zhuo's death, Liu Xie gave Lu Zhi two edicts.One is to return to the imperial court, serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Households, and exercise the power of managing officials, and the other is to serve as the Luoyang School to avoid alcohol and lead the Luoyang School.

Doctors and lecturers of Luoyang Menxue have no official positions, only the leader of the Menxue who is forbidden to drink is an official position, and his rank is not low.But as a student of bogey, there are thousands of students behind it, so it is quite taboo to stand in line.On this point, Liu Xie and Lu Zhi had already pointed out that if it was a taboo, they would not discuss politics in the early court.

Lu Zhi accepted the imperial edict of Luoyang Menxue to avoid alcohol, and he never came to court since then.

Tian Feng is upright and the head of the Overwatch Council responsible for assessing and supervising the administration of officials. No matter how famous Lu Zhi is, he retorted mercilessly: "It is true that Lu Jijiu has high moral character and a wealth of knowledge. But can he have merit? Merit and ability to govern Jiujiang and Lujiang counties are mediocre. These scholars and great Confucianists are only suitable for the taboo of learning. The emperor knows how to use people well and make the best use of their talents, which is really great kindness."

Liu Xie asked, "Where is Lu Jijiu?"

An supervisor replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Lu Jijiu has taken a leave of absence. Recently, he has been busy with affairs and Jijiu's age is too high. His health can't bear it, so he took a long leave."

Wang Yun frowned when he heard this, obviously an old and sick person is not suitable to be a Sangong.

"My dear friends, since there is no suitable person to take the position, and the wars and turmoil broke out during the system of the Three Dukes and the Nine Ministers, and the people are in dire straits, it shows that this system is no longer suitable for today's world. I have made up my mind, since there is nothing important, then I will retreat to the court." After all, Liu Xie ignored the few ministers kneeling on the ground and walked straight away.

Lu Bu also followed, and said indignantly, "I think this group of people is plotting to form a clique. That old man Wang Yun is obviously the one in charge. He should be an example to others."

Liu Xie explained patiently: "Wang Yun's family is a famous family in Hedong County. They have held important official positions in the county for generations and have a lot of influence in Sizhou. Famous scholars cannot be easily killed. Killing them is even more important. Scholars criticize us with words and pens.”

As a young emperor, if he is accused of mass murdering loyal officials, his reputation will be lost and the court will be unstable.Of course, scholars can't be killed. After Cao Cao gained power, he didn't just kill Kong Rong and Yang Xiu, and forced Xun Yu to death.

"Keep them, and there will be no peace in the court, and they will continue to provoke."

"It's not in the way for the time being, we will stand still." Liu Xie said: "If you have time, come with me to see Cai Yong in the afternoon."

Lu Bu went to the Ministry of War first.

The Ministry of War was still bustling with people, and there were many people in the backyard who had read official documents for a long time, and then they stood up and exercised their muscles and bones, and stood up in the yard.

Lu Bu was excited and joined in.He was born with supernatural power, and after a while, everyone dispersed, packed their clothes and fled: "It's scattered, I can't beat the general, I'm going to deal with official documents..."

Lu Bu was unhappy, so he had to go back to the palace to read the official documents.Gao Shun led the soldiers who had been snatched that day, and was sorting out the documents. The important ones that needed Lu Bu's approval were taken out and piled up separately.The ones that he can approve are piled up in another pile. If Lu Bu is free, he will also pick them up for spot checks.

Lu Bu was the chief bookkeeper of the army when he was in Ding Yuan's tent, so he didn't bother to deal with these things.I had nothing to do today, so I re-read Gao Shun's reply.Gao Shun was really careful in doing things, without any omissions.As soon as I put down my pen, I heard three loud bells.

Lu Bu said, "Well, it's time for lunch."

Gao Shun asked: "General, are you going to eat in the cafeteria today or order someone to bring it back?"

"Let's go to the cafeteria to eat."

Gao Shun ordered: "Le Jin go to occupy a seat first."

"Yes!" The little soldier rushed out like a hungry tiger at the speed of marching and fighting.

"Hey, it's really fast." Lu Bu praised, "Nine-foot-tall men in the army don't have that speed."

Gao Shun said happily: "This new soldier is very quick at work. I asked him with the paperwork, and he is also quite insightful. He is a good seed in the army."

Lu Bu nodded, and asked again: "I haven't eaten in the palace since Lu Shan came back, why is the cafeteria occupying seats now?"

"Since the five ministries have all come to work in the palace, there have been more people. There are not many good seats separated by a screen, so you have to grab them, otherwise they will be taken by the Ritual Ministry which is close to the cafeteria." The partner doesn't deal with it very much, and he is determined not to eat together.Gao Shun explained: "Now everyone eats as soon as the bell rings, or after a stick of incense."

Compared with when Dong Zhuo was there, the dishes in Luoyang Canteen are much less.There are only ten dishes at noon, and each person can choose four dishes.There is no limit to staple foods such as steamed buns, dim sum, sesame seed cakes, rice, and millet porridge, all of which are provided for free.If you are dissatisfied with the big pot of rice, you can go to the small cafeteria to pay copper coins and ask the imperial chef to order food.

At this time, the palace was managed by Liu Xie in an orderly manner, with various regulations written clearly, and even places like the cafeteria had no privileges or loopholes.

Even if Lu Bu is an official to the general, he has to serve the food himself in the big dining hall.The palace ladies hand out wooden trays at the entrance, and after entering, each person receives the food on the wooden tray, and no one can beat more.Most generals don't pay much attention to this. In the barracks, many people eat and live with the soldiers. In an emergency, they grab pancakes and eat them.On the contrary, some civil servants couldn't accept the absence of maids to serve them, so they refused to come to eat, and asked their subordinates to pack them back.

If you want to pack and eat, you have to pay copper coins.Who made the royal meal so famous that there are always courtiers who want to take it home to taste for relatives and friends.

As for meat, Lu Bu is not picky.I ordered four big meat dishes in one go, including braised dog meat, cold pork ears, fried pork ribs and hot carp slices, and grabbed three big steamed cakes.

"Compared to before, there are a lot fewer dishes." For example, the red wine foie gras and iron plate foie gras that had brought psychological shadows to many ministers were gone.

Gao Shun said with a smile: "The emperor himself is setting an example and promoting frugality, and only eats four courses at noon."

At this time, the most important meal for people is the morning meal, and lunch is not very particular.Lu Bu said, "It's not a problem, but it's a pity that there is no wine."

"Hey, it's not a mistake of drinking. The palace also stipulates that you are not allowed to drink while on duty, otherwise you will be dragged out to beat the board."

"Oh, and the civil servants are the same?"

Gao Shun said: "It has been said that the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, let alone the scholar-bureaucrats?"

Dong Zhuo's state of drunkenness when his party was killed is still in front of him, and Gao Shun, who was originally not good at drinking, has never touched a drop of alcohol since then.

After going off duty at night, Lu Bu got his wish and drank wine.As the night darkened, Liu Xie came out quietly at the side door of the palace, and smelled the aroma of wine on his body.
