.The journey of destiny

Liu Xie now has eight princes, the eldest son Liu Wei, the second son Liu Yi, the third son Liu Ping, the fourth son Liu Zi, the fifth son Liu Cong, the sixth son Liu Jian, the seventh son Liu Tai, and the eighth son Liu Jue. Those who are over the fifteenth year are already candidates for the crown prince, including Liu Su, who is just fifteen years old this year.

Liu Cong was also born to Cai Yan, and he was the same mother as Liu Wei. Liu Jian is the son of Zhou Yuan. He is only thirteen years old this year. Liu Tai is born to Xu, a beauty in the palace. He is only six years old this year. Liu Jue is born to Brahmasa and only four years old this year.

Since Huang Yueying has never had a son, Cai Yan specially entrusted Liu Cong to her to teach her in order not to let her be lonely. Liu Cong herself is naturally intelligent. Under the influence of Huang Yueying, she is good at astronomy and mathematics. After entering the Imperial Academy for study at the age of ten, she received guidance from many Imperial Academy scholars. Although she is young, she is also good at mathematics and physics.

Liu Xie asked the five older princes to come to the Imperial Palace and said to them: "Today's Han Empire is so huge that it is impossible to control those who cannot control it. All five of you are intelligent sons. I don't know who should take over the Han Dynasty. So today, I will give you a test question. After answering this test question, the best and most complete ones of you can become the crown prince. After I take over the thousands of miles of the Han Empire and the power of the entire royal family!"

After Liu Xie finished speaking, all the princes were eager to try. Liu Wei was the eldest prince and said on behalf of the princes: "But please ask the father to give the question!"

Liu Xie smiled and looked at the five people and said, "This matter is not that simple. From tomorrow on, you five will go out in a simple manner, three scholars and hundreds of guards from each generation. They dressed up as ordinary rich children and were traveling abroad to study. They required that within two years, they would travel to the 14 states of the 28 states in the world. Each person would organize the 14 state abbreviation of the Han Empire, and should start from the eight aspects of people's sentiment, economy, taxation, religion, education, medical care, bureaucracy and geography. After that, we should summarize the national abbreviation of the Han Empire, and then based on this national abbreviation, write a policy of governing the country for me. The foothold of the national policy is if you are the emperor of the Han Empire. How should you guide this empire to correct past mistakes and become stronger and stronger."

"After you have completed your study tour in the past two years, I will get your own policy of governing the country and studying tours. I will summon all the ministers to discuss the heights of you and determine who is the crown prince of the Han Empire!"

"This is your destiny journey. During this trip, you must be diligent and ask more questions, investigate everywhere, and do not disclose your identities, and officials of each state shall not welcome you. No funding shall be provided, and everything shall be dependent on you. Two years later, the next emperor of the Han Empire, the Asian Confederacy II and the Head of the Asia Confederacy, and the Taoist Pope, the successors of all these will appear very clearly, and I will also send someone to supervise secretly. Any cheating will cause you to lose the qualification to compete!"

The five princes immediately knelt down and said, "I will never dare to let down my father's high expectations. I will definitely submit national governance policies and ambitions that satisfy my father!"

Liu Xie closed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "Everything goes down and prepare. Two years will take a long time. As for scholars and guards, I have asked someone to arrange it. You can go back and say goodbye to your mother!"

The five princes left. After they left, Chen Qun, who had been standing beside Liu Xie, said: "The great way is, the national policy is fake. Let them understand the national conditions. The first thing is to do!"

Liu Xie nodded slightly and said, "For them, understanding the people's sentiment is the most fundamental thing. As for the governance of the country, it is second. Of course, perhaps with the ability of Liu Yi and Liu Wei, they can put forward good governance policies. In fact, I am building a country, and they need to explore and govern. Some aspects do need to be adapted, but how to adapt depends on the actual situation of the people and the empire. Although governance is a matter of governing the government, it does not mean that the emperor does not care at all. For the emperor, he still needs to have a scale in his heart to balance the governance of the country. Once there is a deviation, he must adjust it quickly!"

He asked again: "What else does Yang Xiu have? Tell me first. I know that you can avoid the Military Academy and pass on a letter to me, and there are some problems in it!"

Chen Qun said: "After the Independent Commission Against Corruption found out that the former Jiangxia prefect Zhang Fan had major corruption, Yang Xiu, who had a marriage relationship with Zhang Fan, actually came forward to protect Zhang Fan, and used the capabilities of the Military Academy to destroy all the evidence. Now there is no evidence and it is impossible to ask the emperor to report it!"

Liu Xie laughed instead of anger and said, "Yang Xiu is very brave. He thought there was no evidence, so I couldn't handle it. www.piaotian.com. Let the Imperial Security Bureau and the Independent Commission Against Corruption investigate jointly, and the power of the Military Academy will not be used for the time being. To find out how many problems Yang Xiu has."

Chen Qun reminded: "Master, you can't investigate. Now the National Court has entered the formal state. The joint investigation between the Security Bureau and the Independent Commission Against Corruption must be reported to the National Court. As the Yang family of Jingshan Foundation, once the investigation is investigated, the problems of Jingshan Foundation will be noticed!"

Liu Xie patted his head and said angrily: "It seems that Yang Xiu is prepared for any trouble. No wonder he dares to break the law so boldly. He is so smart. In fact, if you blame me, I can only emphasize the confidentiality of Jingshan Foundation and did not formulate relevant constraint mechanisms. Long article, you have drawn some elite personnel from the Imperial Security Bureau, the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and the Audit Office to establish an Internal Audit Department within the Internal Affairs Bureau, which is specifically responsible for the review of the royal property management status!"

Chen Qun said: "When the Jingshan Foundation was expanded before the resignation of the State and the Civil and Commercial Progress, a large amount of the State and Commercial Progressive Party was wiped out and did not become the property of the Jingshan Foundation. Instead, it was transformed into the private property of each family. The Yang and Mi family were the most important. The Yang family's problems were quite special. At that time, Yang Biao was still in charge of the family's rights. Now Yang Xiu replenished the evidence everywhere, and erased the evidence everywhere. In fact, it was to protect the money Yang Biao had greedy back then. Judging from some clues currently in hand, the wealth Yang Biao ate in the State and the People's Foundation was very amazing. The most obvious example was that when Yang Family Progressive Party purchased the Qingzhou Construction Commercial Company, he bought a deposit worth 2 billion yuan worth of land for only four million yuan, and most of them were planned to be under the name of the Yang family and was audited over the years. Since their Yang family is one of the six Jingshan Foundation, we also protect them and dare not let anyone review them, otherwise Yang Biao would have been found out before his death!"

Liu Xie sighed and said, "Let Yang Xiu come here tonight. After I finish with him, I will officially remove him from the positions of the Military Academy and the Academy of Staff. As for the Yang family's status in the Jingshan Foundation, let me consider it for a while!"

Chen Qun said silently. Although Yang Xiu's behavior violated the laws of the Han Dynasty and could even be directly asked to behead him, the beginning of everything was Yang Biao. Since Yang Biao served as the Minister of the Internal Affairs Office, he laid the root of disaster. As a son, Yang Xiu could only use all his intelligence to cure the aftermath of his father. Yang Xiu wiped out most of the evidence for three years before he erased most of the evidence. He secretly raised a lot of wealth from various institutions and the Royal People's Livelihood Foundation... He wanted to deal with all the money without Liu Xie's awareness. He and Yang Xiu had been with each other for many years, and he didn't know what to say.

On the other hand, Yang Xiu and Zhou Yu were two sons of similar age when Liu Xie stood up in his early years. For Liu Xie, this kind of friendship was not easy to deal with.

Liu Xie was also very conflicted. He knew very well that Yang Biao was speculative back then. However, he always regarded Yang Biao as an old minister. Sometimes he did not deal with any violations. Even if Liu Xie noticed it, he could also say that Yang Biao was the second important minister of the previous dynasty who supported him after Lu Zhi. After the family of the four generations and three kings, he was appointed as the Duke again when Yang Biao contacted the two dynasties. The reputation of the Yang family was indeed a wealth of the empire.

It is this kind of mentality. Liu Xie has been tolerant of Yang Biao. Now that the big mistake has been made, Yang Xiu can only work hard to repair it. The more he makes mistakes, the more he makes, the more he makes. Both the father and son are old ministers who have followed him for more than 30 years. Even if Liu Xie is determined, how can he do it?

On October 15th, the moon was eighty-minute round, and Liu Xie summoned Yang Xiu to the Biluoying Garden of the Central Imperial Court. He enjoyed the moon and tasted wine with him. From thirty years ago to the present, when he was having a harmonious conversation, Liu Xie sighed leisurely and said, "Ancestor De, what are your descendants?"

Yang Xiu replied: "There are three sons, the eldest son Yang Chen, who is smart and smart. He is studying finance and economics at the Central Imperial Academy. The second son Yang Fu is good at painting and versatile. He is studying architecture at the Yangtze Imperial Academy. He hopes to become a great architect and build a building as majestic as the Western Golden Tower for the Empire. He is also very supportive of him. The third son Yang Yan is now studying Greek and Roman in the Language Academy of Tianjing Academy. He is about to study in Babylon!"

Liu Xie smiled with relief and said, "Okay, you have three good sons! How many daughters do you have?"

Yang Xiu smiled and said, "There are only three sons, and I have no daughter in my life, so I feel regretful!"

Liu Xie laughed and said, "The officials in the court envy you. Every time they have a son, they are a blessing!"

Yang Xiu replied respectfully: "It's all for the blessings of the emperor!"

Liu Xie smiled faintly and asked again: "Will there be no descendants to take over your work? Come to the Imperial Mansion?"

Yang Xiu replied sadly: "It is better for my descendants not to take office. The eldest son manages the Yang Family Club, which can be regarded as serving the emperor. It is also a good thing for the other two sons to be a scholar who will be worry-free for the rest of their lives!"

Liu Xie looked at the rockery in the distance and said lightly: "Ancestor De, you are a smart person. After I come back this time, Chen Qun and others will not let you see me for the time being. You should understand the reason!"

Yang Xiu was silent for a long time, and suddenly bowed to the ground and cried, "I wish to apologize for my death and confiscate all the property coefficients. But I hope the emperor will remember that my father and son have worked hard for many years, forgive my father's faults and will no longer pursue them. All the wrongs will be borne by me!"

Liu Xie sighed faintly and said softly: "Get up, I have already understood your affairs. With your intelligence, you should realize that confessing directly to me is the best way out for your Yang family. Although I hate corrupt officials, your Yang family has worked hard for many years. I will never do anything. Even if I have no choice, I will protect the reputation of the Yang family, at least I will not make you embarrassed. But you know that you are wrong and then again and again, and repeatedly erase the evidence. Now, what do you want me to deal with it!"

Yang Xiu held up the court crown and cried, "I would like to ask the emperor to strictly abide by the law. I am willing to kill myself to warn corrupt officials in the world. If the emperor can even deal with the ministers according to the law, who dares to violate the law in the world!"

Liu Xie stood up, sighed, and said, "I will give you three days to anonymously raise funds from Yang Biao's money to the royal family's livelihood foundation. As for your crimes and evidence of corruption, you can collect it yourself, and I will not ask. After you die, I will use the authority of pardon, and still leave the title of the Duke of the Yang family, which will be inherited by the eldest son Yang Chen, and the second son and the third son, and I will take good care of you."

Yang Xiu resolutely said: "I ask the emperor to convict the minister of his crimes according to the law. The Wumen Gate asked to be executed and told the world that the evidence was all in my family. The tomorrow minister surrendered to the Independent Commission Against Corruption Office. I ask the emperor to let me do my last effort for the Han Empire to warn the corrupt officials in the world that as long as the emperor remembers the hard work of my Yang family, I can forgive my father and the three sons of my ministers, everything is enough!"

Liu Xie sighed and said, "I understand. You go back to Yanshan with your family for a few days, then go to Hongnong Huayin to worship your ancestors, and then go back to the Independent Commission Against Corruption Office in Tianjin to surrender, alas!"

Liu Xie was sad in his heart that Yang Biao's ancestor Yang Zhen was a famous minister of the Han Dynasty. Someone once bribed him for saying "no one knew, no one would accept it." Yang Zhen refused him with harsh words "God knows, God knows, I knows, and my son knows."

To this day, the "Four Knowledge" is also a motto for all officials of the Han Empire to become officials. The Yang family itself can be said to be "four generations of Taiwei, with virtue and career succession." But when Yang Biao and Yang Xiu's generation ended up falling into corruption. Even the world's prominent clans are like this, how can thousands of small clans in the world be able to bear it!

Liu Xie sighed and stood up and left, leaving only Yang Xiu, kneeling in Biluoying Garden, whispering sadness. Liu Xie couldn't bear it when he heard this, but he had no choice but to return to the palace early and met Cai Yan who was washing up and preparing to fall asleep.

Seeing him with a sad face, Cai Yan asked, "Why is the Lord so sad?"

Liu Xie told her about the Yang family one by one, and the more she talked, the more she became more and more sad. Cai Yan walked up to him, holding his hand, and said, "The emperor has been emperor for twenty years. Don't you understand that national affairs are the most important and private affairs are the least important? Yang Biao's mistake is that he is unscrupulous and arrogant in his contributions. Yang Xiu's mistake is that he abuses his power and wants to cover up the truth. Although the two made contributions to the country, the emperor also said that before the law, all people were equal and their contributions cannot be reduced. The emperor used the power of the emperor to protect the position of the duke of his clan. This kind of kindness is enough. Why bother to worry again? The emperor only asked the heaven and earth, and asked himself that he had no shame and felt guilty about the heaven and earth and the millions of people in the world. Since he had no shame, why blame himself?"

Liu Xie sighed: "Yang Biao's mistake originated from me. If I hadn't let him grasp the royal wealth, billions of money would flow in front of me every year. As the saying goes, people's hearts are for profit, who is not moved? In addition, there has been no strict supervision and audit mechanism in the Interior Affairs Office, which makes him even more unscrupulous. The defeat of the old minister is like a sharp cone that penetrates my heart deeply!"

Cai Yan sighed lightly and said, "Master, don't blame yourself anymore. With the ability of the Master, if you want to truly curb the corruption, you will definitely be impossible. Instead of lamenting, it is better to think of a way. To completely cure it is what the Master should do!"
