Liu Mansion.

Liu Guanghui returned from the Ministry of Justice.

"Master, the great master asked you to come back, go directly to the study to find him."

When the old man guarding the gate saw Liu Guanghui, he quickly stood up and leaned against the door. When Liu Guanghui walked past, he bowed and said this.

Liu Guanghui nodded, without saying a word, and walked into the house.

Liu Guanghui did not rush to the study immediately, but went back to his bedroom, took off his official uniform, changed into leisurely clothes, and then went to the study.

Liu Guanghui is a person who does everything with a strict and concise manner. No matter how small things are, he will take them very seriously. He will never relax or be careless because of the small matter. Such a person may be very tiring and not efficient in his work, but his advantages are also obvious. Liu Guanghui has been an official for more than 20 years and has never made any mistakes, and has never been there once.

Liu Guanghui's performance in the Political Affairs Hall is very mediocre and has a low sense of existence. It has been almost four years since he entered the Political Affairs Hall. Liu Guanghui has never taken the initiative to express his political opinions and positions. Of course, this is just a political choice, not that he has his own job and has done nothing.

Liu Guanghui is cautious and low-key, but he is very pragmatic in his work. In recent years, he has intentionally been invisible in the Political Affairs Hall and stayed away from political struggles. Instead, he put all his energy into the Ministry of Justice and carried out effective reforms, greatly reducing the occurrence of unjust and wrong cases and a series of political achievements. Even the former Emperor Xingzong Zhao Zhi was admired by him and praised him.

Liu Guanghui pushed open the door of the study and walked in.

Liu Jie was standing there practicing calligraphy.

Liu Guanghui walked up, picked up the ink stone, and gave him the ink ink.

"You are the prime minister of the current dynasty, and your duty is to be in the Political Affairs Hall and the Ministry of Justice. Don't go too hard, as this will not be good for your reputation."

Liu Jie didn't raise his head and said while practicing calligraphy.

Liu Guanghui remained silent, just silently grinding the ink stone.

Seeing that Liu Guanghui didn't say anything, Liu Jie finally stopped the movement in his hand and looked up at his son. The latter looked calm and there was nothing unusual.

Liu Jie sighed secretly, put down the brush in his hand, sat down, and then said softly: "Guanghui, you gave the emperor a memorial, which is about financial reform. Why don't you tell me about this matter in advance?"

Liu Guanghui put the teacup beside him in front of Liu Jie, sat down opposite him, and then said, "The emperor has always been interested in reforming the finances. He has asked every prime minister in the Political Affairs Hall, hoping to tell everyone his own suggestions. Father, you know these."

Liu Jie's face turned gloomy: "I'm asking you, why didn't I ask for my opinion before submitting this memorial? If you become a prime minister, you don't even take your father seriously?"

Liu Guanghui frowned and said, "Father, this is just some of my personal opinions, and it is rarely discussed and does not involve other aspects."

Liu Jie slapped the table and scolded angrily: "You are the prime minister of the current dynasty, and even my Liu Jie's son. How can any words you say represent only yourself? You used to be cautious and careful in your work. Why did you act so naive in this matter?"

Liu Guanghui said in a low voice: "As the prime minister of the current dynasty and the Minister of Justice, is my greatest use of not speaking?"

Liu Jie was slightly stunned and looked at his son in surprise. Since childhood, he never dared to disobey him, but today it was his first time refuting him.

Liu Jie didn't speak, and Liu Guanghui also remained silent.

Liu Guanghui rarely speaks, he doesn't like arguing with others, and Liu Jie doesn't like arguing with others, but when facing his son, he must make some things clear.

"Guanghui, I don't let you be the patriarch. I hope you will focus more energy on the court and will not be dragged down by other common things. But don't worry, I have already talked to Guangyao with my father, and your elder brother has agreed. When it's time to thirty, he will retreat from the position of the patriarch and then recommend the position of the patriarch..."

"Father, the child doesn't care about this."

Liu Guanghui interrupted Liu Jie's words.

Liu Jie's thoughts were disrupted and he didn't know what to say for a moment. He had already seen that Liu Guanghui's emotions were a little wrong. This kind of emotional strangeness might be for him.

The father and son were silent for a while, and Liu Jie said indifferently: "Then what do you care about?"

Liu Guanghui remained silent. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "I don't know either."

Liu Jie looked at Liu Guanghui silently for a while, and then said, "Your spirit seems a bit bad. In the past few days, don't go anywhere, and have a good rest at home."

"The boy gave up."

Liu Guanghui nodded, stood up and bowed to Liu Jie, then turned around and left.

Looking at Liu Guanghui's departure back, Liu Jie's brows frowned tightly.

Half a year ago, Liu Jie retreated from the position of patriarch, and the elected person of the new patriarch was beyond the expectations of all tribe members. It was not Liu Guanghui, who was outstanding in his position as prime minister, but Liu Guangyao, who was very mediocre in all aspects.

The aristocratic families attach great importance to the nobleness of blood relationships, and there are very strict hierarchical plans between legitimate and illegitimate children, but they are relatively indifferent to inheriting the eldest son. Of course, they are relatively indifferent to the first son, and do not ignore it. If the eldest son is relatively excellent, then other people will definitely have no chance. If the eldest son has average abilities, then they will compete fairly. Of course, this fairness has nothing to do with the concubine's son, and is just selected among the legitimate children.

Liu Jie had three sons. Except for Liu Guanghui, the other two sons were very mediocre. The eldest son Liu Guangyao stayed in his hometown because of his physical disability. The second son Liu Guangshan came out to be an official because of Liu Jie's family, but he had been hanging around in the place for many years and had not made any name. He was very ordinary in all aspects. On the eve of Liu Jie's retirement, for the sake of Liu Guanghui's political path being smoother, under Liu Jie's persuasion, Liu Guangshan resigned and returned to his hometown, and he stayed away from the officialdom from then on.

Mediocrity also has the benefits of mediocrity, at least it lacks the ambition and desire, so the relationship between Liu Jie's legitimate sons has always been very harmonious, unlike Yang Daosi's sons, who fought openly and secretly, and finally fought over and over again, almost causing the entire family to be destroyed.

The second year of Kaiyuan, March 20th.

Zhao Xun officially established a new government affairs office, Land Justice Company.

The main responsibility of the Land Justice Company is to remeasure the land in the country and classify it.
