After Yin Shuyi was buried, although Liu Jun did a lot of absurd things, he seemed to have put his focus back on the government. In the seventh year of the Ming Dynasty (463 AD, the fourth year of northern Wei peace), on the twelfth day of the first month of Ding Hai (twelfth day), Liu Jun appointed Shangshu's right servant Wang Shenglang as the general of Taichang and Wei, and Yan Shibo as Shangshu's servant. Two days later, he also appointed Shang Shu ling Liu Yuanjing as the Grand General of the Hussars and the Kaifu Yi Tongsan Division.
On April 20, Liu Jun issued an edict stipulating: "No official or general, if he is not fighting the enemy on the battlefield, shall not use his power to kill people at will." Even criminals whose crimes were serious and wanted to be beheaded must first report to the imperial court and wait for review and approval before execution. Any violation of this edict shall be punishable by homicide. It can be seen that Liu Jun attaches great importance to the judiciary.
On the second day of the first month of May, Liu Jun once again issued an edict: "From now on, the assassination of history and the mobilization of the people to mobilize the army must be carried out in accordance with the edicts." Only enemy attacks in remote areas of the frontier, or sudden adultery and rebellion in the court, can not be excluded. He then appointed Zuo Min Shangshu Cai Xingzong and the Left Wei general Yuan Yue as the official Shangshu.
But Liu Jun is such a complex person, on the one hand, he is quite accomplished in politics, on the other hand, he is frequently in private. Liu Jun liked to tease and insult his subordinates, and none of the ministers below Liu Yigong had ever been insulted by foul language. For example, Liu Jun often called Wang Xuanmo "Yankee", Liu Xiuzhi called "old cut door", Yan Shibo "big plate teeth", and others, whether tall or short, fat and thin, have given nicknames. Huangmen Waiter Zong Lingxiu was obese, and it was very inconvenient to get up after prostrating, and every time he gathered, Liu Jun kept rewarding him with things, just to see him stumble and stumble on Xie En's appearance, in order to make fun of it. Liu Jun also favored a Kunlun nu, he often let Kunlun nu take a stick to beat up the officials, from Liu Yuanjing below, they were inevitably beaten, only the serious Cai Xingzong did not dare to beat.
On June 25, Liu Jun also appointed Liu Deyuan, the Taishou of Qin Commandery, as the Assassin of Yu Prefecture. This was originally a seemingly ordinary personnel appointment, after all, Liu Deyan was Liu Huaishen's son, and it was also Liu Song's ancestral office, and Liu Huaishen was also a prominent military achievement, and this appointment was not excessive. However, it is said that this matter has other hidden feelings, it is said that Liu De's willingness to get this position is still related to Yin Shuyi, it turns out that after Liu Jun buried Yin Shuyi, he and his subordinates came to Yin Guifei's tomb several times to pay their respects.
Once he said to Liu Deyuan, "You cry Concubine Yin, and if you cry very sadly, I will reward you generously." As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Deyan had already lost his voice and cried bitterly, beating his chest and feet, and tears and snot were all flowing together. Liu Jun was greatly pleased, so he rewarded him with the official position of Yuzhou Assassin.
Also benefiting was a physician named Yang Zhi, Liu Jun ordered the physician Yang Zhi to also cry Yin Shuyi, and Yang Zhi also cried extremely sadly. After some days, someone asked Yang Zhi, "Where did you get these tears so quickly?" Yang Zhi replied, "I was just a concubine crying about my death." ”
It is difficult to judge whether the above is true or false, but it is an indisputable fact that Liu Jun began to pursue enjoyment. Since the Jin Dynasty moved to Jiangnan, the palaces have been built hastily, and the pilgrimage or banquet is only in the East Hall or the West Hall. It was not until the last year of sima yao, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, that the Qingxia Hall was built. After the establishment of the Liu Song Dynasty, no palace was built or changed. Liu Jun did not inherit these fine traditions and began to build a large number of civil engineering and expand the palace. Even the walls and pillars are decorated with splendid embroidery.
For his beloved wives and concubines and subordinates, Liu Jun was also unrestrained in rewarding them, so much so that he emptied everything in the treasury. What was even more excessive was that he ordered the destruction of the house where Liu Yu had lived, where the Jade Candle Hall was built, and then went with his ministers to watch, and there was an earthen wall at the head of the bed of the old house, and on the wall were hung with ma ge lanterns and twine flies. After reading it, Yuan Yue praised Liu Yu's frugal and simple character. Liu Jun did not answer anything after listening to it, but said to himself: "It is already very excessive for the cropper to get this kind of enjoyment." ”
In the eighth year of the Ming Dynasty (464 AD, the fifth year of northern Wei peace), it was reported that Liu Junling had a scandal, and it was said that when all the officials of the Assassin History and the Two Thousand Stones were dismissed from office and returned to Beijing, Liu Jun must restrict them to pay tribute, and at the same time, he gambled with them until their money was won. He drank freely all day and rarely had a sober time. He often fell asleep on the desk, and sometimes as soon as there was an emergency outside, he immediately shook his spirits, sorted out his clothes, and did not drink at all. Therefore, the internal and external subordinates were very afraid of him, and no one dared to do things slackly.
Gradually, Liu Jun's body also began to develop conditions, and on the 23rd day of the leap month of May, Liu Jun died in the Jade Candle Hall. Before his death, Liu Jun left a testament saying: "Remove Dazai Liu Yigong from the post of Shangshu Ling and add the post of Zhongshu Supervisor." He appointed the general of hussars and the southern Yanzhou assassin Shi Liu Yuanjing to concurrently serve as Shang Shu Ling and entered the inner city to live. The affairs of the imperial court, no matter how big or small, must all be played by the two of them. Major state affairs should be decided through consultation with Shen Qingzhi, the Duke of Sixing. If there were military affairs, they would all be entrusted to Shen Qingzhi. The affairs of the Shang Shu Mansion were entrusted to the servant Yan Shibo. He was in charge of foreign affairs and handed over to the leading general Wang Xuanmo to handle. "These five men became auxiliary ministers.
So who will inherit Liu Jun's throne? What will happen to Liu Song internally?
