After Liu Yan's power has reached this level, he can feel that there is not much happiness from his heart.
For example, in Empire level countries such as Rome and sassanne, if the princess doesn't do well to be a princess, she will come to the Han Empire to be a female official who may not be as high as eight grades. Although Liu Yan detects something wrong, just because they are willing to do so, Liu Yan will still have a heartfelt pleasure.
Liu Yan has been able to feel the loneliness and emptiness brought about by mastering absolute power. If there were not greater goals waiting to be completed, he doubted whether he would become a real tyrant to toss the domestic people for all kinds of fun.
There is a goal without looking at the actual national strength. If you want to achieve that goal, the first emperor has set an example for the later kings of a country.
For Liu Yan, there is another example of Yang Guang, and Yang Guang was blackened worse than the first emperor who was blackened again and again.
The first emperor did have some places worthy of being blackened. Afang palace and Lishan cemetery could not be erased.
But is it wrong to say that Yang Guang played Koguryo? Since it's wrong, why should Li Tang play in the back.
The imperial examination system was completed in Yang Guang's hands and became a system of selecting scholars for the country until the demise of the last dynasty. And even in the modern civil service admission, there is still a reference for the imperial examination.
Then there is the Grand Canal advocated by Yang Guang. His mistake is only too urgent. Otherwise, who dares to say that the Grand Canal is good for nothing?
Turning part of his energy to beautiful women is what Liu Yan is trying to do recently. Especially with so many new things, he really should have a good time. He felt that he was not just having fun, but was working hard on stick diplomacy, which was also very hard.
Countries that have presented beautiful women must be looking forward to the birth of a prince or daughter of their own blood, so as to determine the achievements in their contacts with the Han Empire.
It's spiritual comfort to go further, but it really works. If there is a prince of the Han Empire of national origin, can he get any practical benefits, let alone frighten a country without a prince of the Han Empire.
As for the idea of making the prince with his own blood become the emperor of the Han Empire, it's really not unthinkable.
Liu Yan, who had worked hard for several days, went out of the harem only at the regular imperial meeting.
There was only one theme of the great court meeting, which determined that the three provinces and six ministries system would replace the three public and nine Qing systems.
The topic has long been determined. No one dares to put forward miscellaneous affairs at this time. The emergence of the new system was successfully promulgated, and the appointment of heads of ministries was also announced in the form of an imperial edict on the spot.
Since it's not something that needs to be kept secret, who will be the head of which department, unless it's not at the power level, or what should have been known before, it's a process.
Just a restructuring will make the whole day's session very full and completely unable to accommodate the rest of the topics.
After the great court meeting, even if the heads of the ministries had thought out the appointment list of the officials of the ministries before, they would also work overtime all night to publicize that they had not only broken their hearts for the country, but also sacrificed their sleep.
However, Liu Yan did not follow the routine. At the end of the great court meeting, he named the heads of all departments to stay.
Just stay. Anyway, they didn't think of the palace city tonight. They didn't accompany the emperor. They reviewed the list in the office and considered whether to modify it. In fact, there is basically no need to modify the list. The list is to think again and again.
Without the link put out for officials to constantly guess, it has become the task of accompanying the emperor. They are willing to come too late and won't have any opinions at all.
Liu Yan didn't choose to hold a banquet in the hall, or even a formal banquet. He did an open-air barbecue or his own barbecue. He didn't arrange anyone to serve.
This group of core dignitaries has participated in similar activities for many times, and there is nothing they are not used to. They even like it very much. They don't like to do it by themselves, but feel closer to Liu Yan.
"Your Majesty, would you like some kidney?" Ran min grabbed a few kidneys that had not been roasted. He looked at Liu Yan seriously without the slightest ridicule: "it's hard for you these days."
No matter how hard it is, some people decorate and arrange all kinds of supplements (medicine or food) for Liu Yan, but it's not enough to use kidney to make up.
Liu Yan's response was to throw the bamboo sticks left after eating the food at ran min.
A partner in the world, and the ministers who join after the world is settled, the feelings will naturally be special.
They have experienced difficult times together. They have seen almost all kinds of embarrassment. They don't mention some embarrassing past events. In order to show their closeness, they will make some small jokes.
Many emperors have experienced such a stage. At the beginning, they are still happy to joke with their business partners. Gradually, they feel that the authority has been questioned or challenged. They will do all kinds of things to warn, and raise the butcher's knife without getting the proper effect.
Liu Yan is not afraid of challenges. He does not derive from his enigmatic self-confidence. He really has that self-confidence. After he felt lonely and empty, he was always afraid that he would be lost. He was still happy that the group he identified could joke with himself.
"Yuanzi and Anshi need more compensation." Li Tan smiled teasingly at Huan Wen and Xie an and said, "I've heard that. I'm fighting every night!"
Huan wendang immediately fought back: "you don't seem to have said it."
Xie'an was stunned, smiled and shook her head, but she didn't speak.
Countries have presented so many beauties, and the queen has picked them for a while. Depending on the learning progress of those beauties and whether the people to be accepted have any opinions, at least one minister with sufficient qualifications has been sent, and some ministers have as many as a dozen.
Recently, there is a "creak" sound all over Chang'an city. It is said that the craftsmen who repair beds have entered a busy period, and some ingredients that can strengthen 1 Yang are also on sale.
"The altar naturally needs to fight night and night!" Li Tan looked proud and said, "it's all for the big man!"
In the broad sense of any point, there is absolutely no mistake in saying that. Sowing seeds and bearing fruits means that the Han Empire has a newborn again. The country of the child's mother can feel closer to the Han Empire because of the birth of the child. It has really achieved both ends!
Ran min and Xu Zheng looked at each other, and then made eye contact with several others.
Last time they had the most preliminary conversation.
During the first communication, they doubted whether the "fruit" produced by their struggle could have the meaning. They were deeply afraid that they would make wedding clothes for "others" behind the "fruit" they created.
Their worries are not groundless. More and more disorderly skin colors are also members of the Han people. Although they are still mostly yellow skin, who can guarantee that yellow skin will still account for the majority in the future. If black skin or white skin... And even five colors and six colors become the majority, they will really doubt that their struggle is in vain.
"Your Majesty, we are a patrilineal social structure... Is that right?" Ran min twisted a few strings of tested kidneys, came to Liu Yan's seat and sat down. The expression on his face was hee hee, which seemed to be casual. Then he said, "the child's father is Chinese, and the child is Chinese, right?"
Liu Yan nodded.
"Therefore, when a Han woman marries an alien, her child is an alien." Ran min finally saw Liu Yan's eyes, but he was still laughing and said: "Han women certainly won't marry outside. They can't accept the customs of other nationalities and think that people with black skin or white skin don't deserve themselves at all."
This is the embodiment of the current social value. Liu Yan didn't think there was anything wrong. He nodded again.
Nowadays, a large number of foreign women have become Han's daughter-in-law, but that is really something that can't be accepted by Han's men. However, if anyone can marry a Han's man, basically no one will choose a foreign woman to become his wife. For the title, it's only in line with the national policy to take a foreign woman as a concubine.
Han women are still in demand. There is no change for Han women to choose the best and marry. They will marry foreign men only when they have problems.
Ran min, who felt he had made a good start, looked at Xu Zheng.
"Minister once wandered around and saw an interesting thing..." Xu Zheng lowered his head and didn't dare to eye to eye with Liu Yan at all. His voice sounded very normal, but in fact he was very nervous: "several children play together. They play the game of fighting between the Han Army and foreign nationalities. All the children who play foreign nationalities are dark children, which is very lively."
Several people were very cooperative and laughed. Liu yanleng was alone on the spot.
Han people have accepted foreign women from Indochina Peninsula for many years. The official data is that about one million Han men, wives or concubines come from Indochina Peninsula, and there is no lack of dark Han daughter-in-law.
Counting the time, the offspring after their combination are indeed old enough to play in the streets. Xu Zhengneng can see that it is normal.
If several good folk friends barbecue together, talking about such a topic is fun, and everyone will find it very interesting.
The occasion here is the imperial palace. They are kings and ministers. For ordinary people, some things can be fun, and the topic of fun is not so simple for them.
Liu Yan remembers some things of later generations.
Like some early American entertainment works, the role of bad people will always be black, and white people will always be great and just.
In the United States, in case of robbery, the police can shoot unrestricted in the face of blacks, but when the suspect is white, there are hidden rules that must be restrained.
Is it racial discrimination? Maybe, but blacks really
Liu Yan has reacted. He probably knows what these guys want to express. The country really needs to face up to and pay attention to possible social problems, but he doesn't want to talk about that topic at all.
"I didn't want to build a huge palace..." Liu Yan ignored that the palace city in the Great Wall is no smaller than a Fang palace, and there are palaces in other places: "I didn't want to build the cemetery."
The first emperor did not pay much for the construction of a Fang palace, and even resources and materials were collected free of charge. Liu Yan didn't dare to do this. Except for slaves, he paid wages, and he should pay for resources and materials.
As for the cemetery, Liu Yan officially started construction after he became emperor. It is still selected in Lishan. As he said, I really don't care what it will look like.
However, Liu Yan doesn't care. It doesn't mean that others don't care. He just won't use corvee personnel anymore. Slaves will be responsible for the whole process.
"The two national highways running through each other are the biggest projects. They will take about 20 years to complete." Liu Yan felt that in fact, it would not take that long. Even if he no longer used the labor of free people and simply used slaves as labor, five or six years would certainly be enough. When he saw Ji Chang stop talking, he smiled and went on: "I know. Many people expect that the longer the road is built, the better. Many people rely on it to eat."
Ji Chang smiled and nodded constantly.
However, ran min was not far away from sang Yu. While Liu Yan was not looking at them, he kicked sang Yu's upper with his foot.
It is important to ensure the "fruits of revolution", but it is not just about the generals. Civilian personnel don't want to be outside the event at all.
Sang Yu was extremely embarrassed. He had seen that Liu Yan reacted. It was hard to guess which step Liu Yan realized, but now was really not a good time to continue the topic. He could only endure ran min's endless harassment. He really couldn't help but stand up and went to the grill to be busy.
"This guy..." ran Min said fiercely to LV Tai, "he ran away. You didn't say a word from beginning to end?"
LV Tai looked at ran min in a wooden way and said he didn't know what had happened.
Ran min angrily "hum", looked at by Liu Yan, and "ha" again, slapped himself on the neck: "mosquitoes are really annoying!"
Monarchs and ministers are happy here. Even if there are no waiting personnel, there will be no less preparations in advance, including lighting some drugs to drive away mosquitoes.
Liu Yan would not point out, but continued to talk about how to improve people's living standards with a smile.
"There are nearly six million recorded slaves in the Han Dynasty. I think they should be used properly." Ji Chang is not the prime minister now, but as a letter order, he still has the decision-making power: "there are still many places to use under the principle of not squeezing the people's profit space."
There are many ways for anyone to get pleasure. If the angle is changed to the national level, oppression or conquest of other countries will become the only way.
The Han Empire will always lack cheap labor, so the treatment of oppression and conquest will never stop.
Ji Chang didn't know whether it was intentional or casual. As soon as he started talking about obtaining slaves, the topic was changed again.
Ran min kept quietly giving Ji Chang a thumbs up.
Once or twice, Liu Yan didn't notice that he was not blind when he had more times. He kept scanning the people with his eyes. He felt it was hard to relax once!
