The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 695 Follow-up
In the highest hall of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the solemn and solemn Hanyuan Hall, Minister of Rites Qian Muqian, Youdu Yushi Cheng Qingsong, Changping County King and more than 400 ministers bowed three times and worshiped nine times, shouting long live, and supporting the King of Wu enthroned!

According to the procedure of etiquette, the Empress Dowager's order should be needed at this time.But now who cares?
Everyone knew that it was just a symbolic procedure.

"Long live Long live Long live!"

Thirteen stood in front of the throne of Hanyuan Hall, calm on the surface, but still a little dazed in his heart.

In the sound of long live, it seems that everything has become unreal.

Brother Chu and Zhu Zhankun have been fighting for the throne for so many years. One committed suicide after being wronged to show his innocence, and the other was beheaded by his master because of perverse actions.

The supreme position that everyone in the world respects and covets, has it simply fallen into his hands? !
Some people felt a little bit bitter, they never expected that the ninety-fifth place would fall to the King of Wu!Some people rejoice that they stand in the right line and have already achieved the success of the dragon.Someone was peaceful, and the battle for the throne finally came to an end.

The sound of "long live" like a mountain shout and a tsunami gradually dissipated in the Hanyuan Hall, and the lingering sound curled up!
The thirteenth prince, Zhu Zhanhou, was dressed in a white princely attire and filial piety. He was not very old, only 15 years old, but he did not lose his elegance.

He is still adapting to the drastic identity transformation, and all kinds of his past involuntarily appear in his mind at this time.

He was the prince from birth, but although their mother was crowned in the harem, she was only a temporary favorite.Because Xiaojiu is lively, he is favored by Emperor Zhou.

In the 14th year of Yong'an, he met the person who had the greatest influence on him in his life - Yang Qingyuan.

With the permission of his father, he and his elder sister worshiped Yang Qingyuan as their teacher and studied under his sect.

Yang Qingyuan taught him knowledge and the principles of life, and took them to travel around the rivers and lakes and experience the people's livelihood. Those were wonderful times that he will never forget in his life!

Later, the emperor's brother Zhu Zhankun killed his father and came to power. After learning about this incident, Shisan and Xiaojiu once wanted to avenge their father.On the night when Yang Qingyuan raised his army, Yang Qingyuan wanted to avenge his blood and take the throne, so he bowed deeply in the direction Yang Qingyuan left to express his attitude and position.

Everything passed before Thirteen's eyes like a marquee.

However, Zhu Zhanhou quickly withdrew his thoughts, and then looked at the kneeling officials below.He quickly threw himself into the role of the emperor, and glanced at Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory beside him.

Governor Cao was ready a long time ago, he took a small step forward, and his sharp voice spread throughout the Hanyuan Hall.

"All the gentlemen are flat."

Zhu Zhanhou's demeanor changed, and he opened his mouth and said, "I am young and ignorant, I have little talent and little learning, and I am tired of you with the state affairs of the country!"

"The ministers are willing to do the work of dogs and horses!"

Then Zhu Zhanhou looked at Qian Muqian, the first scholar of the Wenyuan Pavilion, Minister of Rites.

"Mr. Qian!"

Zhu Zhanhou didn't call Qian Muqian the Qing family. Although he is the Ninth Five-Year Master, he is much younger than Qian Muqian, and Yang Qingyuan is Shisan's master, and Yang Qingyuan and Qian Muqian are both masters and apprentices.

Heaven and earth are kings, relatives and teachers. Although the king is in front of the teacher, the emperor must respect the teacher and respect the way.

Zhu Zhanhou's title attracted the attention of all the officials in the hall, but immediately they all understood the samadhi and nodded slightly in agreement.

"The minister is here!" Qian Muqian heard the words and came out.

"This chaos in the capital of God depends on Mr. Qian to preside over the overall situation and stabilize the government and the public. Qian Muqian, a scholar of the Wenyuan Pavilion, is the chief assistant of the cabinet and presides over the government affairs of the court! After the situation stabilizes, the court will push it!"

"I accept the decree!" Qian Muqian could not help admiring in his heart while accepting the decree. For so many years, the ministers did not realize that the Thirteenth Highness is only fifteen years old, but he has such a magnanimity and wisdom.

Zhu Zhanhou didn't directly appoint Qian Muqian as the chief assistant of the cabinet, not because he couldn't do it, but because it would damage the authority of the emperor and not be good for Qian Muqian's reputation.

Those at the level of Da Jiuqing and Liubu Shilang are normally appointed by the court and only in emergencies.

For example, when the Yuezhou case happened, Emperor Taizong appointed Yang Qingyuan as Minister of Dali Temple to investigate the case.He was in a hurry to follow the power, so he was appointed directly.

Although Zhu Zhanhou didn't directly appoint Qian Muqian as the chief assistant of the cabinet, he let him act as the first assistant of the cabinet. When the court situation is stable, who can grab this position with Qian Muqian's popularity? !
"Emperor Daxing's funeral should determine his posthumous name and temple name, and hold his funeral. Mr. Qian is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and I will leave this matter to you!"

Qian Muqian heard the words and said, "I obey the order."

Then he closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened his eyes and said, "Emperor Daxing, who was not in the right position, was suspected of regicide and disorderly government, and unjustly killed brothers, heroes, innocent students, and great scholars. The temple name is Xizong."

Killing innocents, tyrannizing without relatives, being cruel and disrespectful, and supporting evil are contrary to righteousness and strictness.

Faintness and decay are Xizong.

This is a top-level posthumous posthumous title, and the temple name is also derogatory, expressing Qian Muqian's extreme dissatisfaction with Zhu Zhankun.

Qian Muqian is a traditional scholar-bureaucrat who adheres to the doctrine of the mean, and usually does not do things too absolute and intense.

But for Zhu Zhankun, he showed absolute disgust and hatred.

Li's posthumous title is generally not easy to get.

Generally, it is the posthumous title given by the new dynasty to the last emperor of the previous dynasty.

But after Zhu Zhankun ascended the throne, he has been busy taking power and consolidating his power.This is actually not a problem. After the traditional emperor ascended the throne, who didn't do this? ! As long as your literary and martial arts are dazzling enough, you will still be flawless.

But Yang Qingyuan didn't give Zhu Zhankun this chance, so Zhu Zhankun became emperor for six months.

Generally, in this case, the posthumous posthumous title of the successor will be given to the "Shang" Emperor, and the better one will be given to the "Huai" Emperor.

However, Zhu Zhankun still has such great "merits" as killing the meritorious prince unjustly and turning the tide of Yu Yanyi.

Yu Gong and Zhu Zhankun were harmful to Da Zhou, and even killed civil servants in private.

In private, Yu Yanyi is Qian Muqian's close friend, and Yang Qingyuan is Qian Muqian's most proud student.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for Qian Muqian to give Zhu Zhankun a good face.

If Yang Qingyuan is a murderer, then Qian Muqian is a murderer, and he must be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever.

Zhu Zhanhou nodded, "Mr. Qian's words are very true." Then, Zhu Zhanhou symbolically asked the left and right censors, six ministers, and acting ministers for their opinions.

People like Cheng Qingsong, the censor of the right capital, and Zhao Mengke, the heavenly official of the official department, have long been dissatisfied with Zhu Zhankun, especially the matter of Yanyi.

All the ministers did not express any objection to this matter, and Zhu Zhankun's posthumous title and temple title were decided just like that!

Then came the second thing, restoring Yu Yanyi's reputation.

This is also where Yang Qingyuan raised his troops. He was not seeking rebellion, but seeking justice for Yu Yanyi who died unjustly.

A pillar of the country who turned the tide and supported the collapse of the building should not die unjustly like this.

"It was so difficult for Yanyi, the chief minister of the cabinet, to protect the country and protect the country from danger, but justice was the only thing that was envied by power and treachery. First, the emperor was stupid and cruel, but my heart really pities his loyalty. Gift special advance Doctor Guanglu, Shangzhu Kingdom, Taifu, posthumous Zhongsu!"

Although Zhongsu is a posthumous title of praise, there is definitely a gap compared to Wen Zheng, Wen Zhen, Wen Zhong, and Wen Lie.

And Yu Yanyi brought Zhongsu to a height that did not belong to him, just like Fan Wenzhenggong of Lanxing in the Northern Song Dynasty.

"Cheng Qing's house."

"Your servant is here!" Cheng Qingsong, with a full head of white hair, came out and said, "This matter will be investigated by the procuratorate and Dali Temple in both of you, and the culprits who framed Zhongliang must be brought to justice!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Two decrees were issued, and Thirteen changed from hesitation to self-confidence, and each decree was reached after deliberation by ministers.

……

"Li Chengguang, the right servant of the Ministry of War, temporarily acts as the Minister of the Ministry of War! The northern border has changed, and the Ministry of War must ensure smooth dispatch of troops and horses, smooth supply of food and grass, and at the same time recruit soldiers and horses to supplement the soldiers lost in the previous battle of Jinyang. In addition, I am here today. Special decree, those who have registered soldiers in each household can be exempted from corvee."

Thirteen remembered the knowledge Yang Qingyuan had taught him. In the absence of more economic and material security for the soldiers, it is necessary to improve their social status and give them the honor they deserve, so that the soldiers will support you.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

……

"Cao Shouzheng, the former Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was the minion of the former Li Emperor, who unjustly killed the heroes. Now he orders Wang Hua, the Minister of General Administration, to take the post of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. Within half a month, the Ministry of Punishment will resume operation, and within three months, the remaining poison of Cao Shouzheng will be eliminated..."

……

After dealing with the specific affairs, it is a matter of etiquette.

Qian Muqian came out to play and said, "Your Majesty, please help the late emperor's coffin to rest in the Qianqing Palace. Prepare the late emperor's edict. Then I ask the empress dowager to make the decree known to the world."

"That's exactly the reason!" Thirteen agreed.

After all, Cao Zhengchun had been with Emperor Taizong for many years. Before Shisan's eyes fell on Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory again, he said, "Long Live Lord, drive!"
-
Although the ownership of the throne has come to an end, it does not mean that Yang Qingyuan can stop and rest.There is still a lot to do after that.

Add meritorious ministers, reward the soldiers of the three armies, calm the hearts of the gods, and in the name of the imperial court, announce to the world that the new emperor has ascended the throne.This is all the basics.

Also, settle accounts after autumn!At that time, Zhu Zhankun's party members were going to be liquidated, but compared to ordinary political liquidation, Yang Qingyuan and Thirteen's methods are now more moderate.Those who break the law will be dealt with in accordance with the law; those with mediocre talents will be transferred;

At the same time, we must closely monitor the movement of the local governor and the commander-in-chief. This time, there are people in the capital who oppose the coup, so what's more in the world? !

Many matters are pending, waiting for Yang Qingyuan to deal with them.

At the same time, Thirteen also successively recalled the members of the first and third departments who were originally exiled from the capital of God.

The remaining party that purged Zhu Zhankun still took off many official hats, and many vacancies in key departments of the court urgently needed to be filled.

The first and third lines of Yong'an were originally the political legacy Taizong left to his successors.

But Zhu Zhankun killed the king and seized the throne, and he was at odds with the first and third lines of Yong'an, so he couldn't use it. Now it's all used by Thirteen.

But for Yang Qingyuan, the coup has come to an end since the night of April [-]th!
After Yang Qingyuan killed Zhu Zhankun with his own hands, he did not take advantage of "one day the power will be in his hands, and kill all the people in the world." Instead, he adopted a gentle method to push Shisan to the throne of God.

This process seems complicated, cumbersome, and even slightly aggrieved!
However, political matters have never been resolved by killing.It requires meticulousness and patience.Governing a big country is like cooking small fish.

Once the strength is not grasped properly, the country may be overthrown and the world may be in chaos.

The next step is to slowly restructure and divide power.

Make civilization one step forward!
……
-
In the Imperial Study Room of the Daming Palace, Zhu Zhanhou put down his pen. Although he has delegated most of the government affairs to the cabinet, there are still many things that need to be reviewed by him personally.

For example, the handling of Li Hongyi and Cao Shouzheng.

Li Hongyi is a great scholar of Jianji Temple, and Cao Shouzheng is a minister of the Ministry of Punishment. They are both top civil servants of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is very troublesome to deal with such people.

Cao Shouzheng was fine, he had done many outrageous things before, and after being found out by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he would inevitably be executed.

However, Li Hongyi was still an upright person. Apart from some small flaws, his biggest crime was being Xi Zong's minion and unjustly killing Yanyi, but this crime was not enough to sentence him to death.

So Zhu Zhanhou took advantage of the opportunity and invited Yang Qingyuan here!

It's just that Yang Qingyuan didn't come, but Xiao Jiu arrived first!

"Thirteen, how does it feel to be the emperor?!"

As soon as Xiao Jiu entered the door, he screened off the servants, leaving only Cao Zhengchun to serve.

Originally pretending to be hardworking, Shisan, whose face was as calm as water, also let out a long breath, "Sister Huang, you don't know how hard it is to be an emperor!"

No matter how calm Thirteen was, he was still just a fifteen-year-old boy, and he couldn't really be like those old foxes.

However, the two still intend to keep Cao Zhengchun.

Xichang Yuhuatian once took refuge in Zhu Zhankun, and still needs to be tested and cleaned. On the contrary, Dongchang Cao Zhengchun is more credible.

So the two of them are also giving Cao Zhengchun a sense of trust.

Not long after, a court lady came to report, "Your Majesty, Marquis of Wuxiang Yang Qingyuan begs to see Your Majesty!"

When Thirteen heard the words, his eyes lit up.

"Please!"

Then Yang Qingyuan entered the hall, "My minister Yang Qingyuan sees Your Majesty!"

Yang Qingyuan made a bow to Shisan, he is a master and apprentice, and also a ruler and minister, and etiquette cannot be discarded.

"Master, you're finally here!" Xiao Jiu didn't think so much, and ran all the way to Yang Qingyuan's side.

Thirteen also got up and came to the side table.

The three sat down, only Cao Zhengchun stood.

"During these days, Governor Cao has worked hard to protect the Son of Heaven!" Yang Qingyuan cupped his hands towards Cao Zhengchun.

Cao Zhengchun didn't expect Yang Qingyuan to say that, and he was flattered for a while.

"Yang Hou said seriously, allegiance to the emperor is the duty of a servant."

Cao Zhengchun's sense of Shisan is also very good. Emperor Taizong Wen is tolerant but still a king. Emperor Xi Zongli's confidant Yuhuatian alienates Cao Zhengchun, but Zhu Zhanhou is close to and respects Cao Zhengchun.

The eunuchs in the palace are physically handicapped, and they pursue fewer things than ordinary people. Apart from money and power, respect is what they need most.

Moreover, because of Yuhuatian's operations, the West Factory lost its own arm, and is now being cleaned and investigated. If the big stalls of the West Factory hadn't stopped the loss in time and turned to the light, the West Factory might have been abandoned by now.

The master and apprentice chatted for a while, and after serving tea, Xiao Jiu said, "I have been busy for a long time, and Governor Cao has also worked hard. I will cook tea for the master and the emperor. You can go down and rest!"

Naturally, Cao Zhengchun knew that his master and his disciples had to talk and it was not suitable for him to stay here, so he resigned and left the imperial study.

Not long after Cao Zhengchun left, the expression on Xiao Jiu's face changed. He first poured a cup of tea for Yang Qingyuan, and then said to Shisan angrily under Zhu Zhanhou's expectant eyes, "If you want tea, pour it yourself!"

He is the Son of Heaven, but he is also his own younger brother.Bloodline suppression cannot be changed!

Zhu Zhanhou blinked and blinked, but had no choice but to pour himself a cup of tea.

While drinking tea, Zhu Zhanhou asked for advice, "Master, I'm not familiar with the government affairs in the court. Today, I agree to the proposals of Qian University and Changsun University. Is this not good!"

Zhu Zhanhou's tone was a little nervous.He is still young, and he can't compare with people like Qian Muqian and Changsun Fuji in terms of government affairs.

Yang Qingyuan looked at the restless Zhu Zhanhou, and probably could understand the hesitation in his heart. At this time, the heavy responsibility of the Great Zhou Empire was on the shoulders of a 15-year-old boy.The pressure made him unable to breathe.

"Thirteen, do you still remember that I told you that there is no dynasty that lasts forever?!"

This is the lesson that Yang Qingyuan taught Zhu Zhanhou and Zhu Qionghua before.

Since ancient times, which dynasty does not want to be one line forever, forever? !But has anyone done it? !
On the blue star of later generations, only the Japanese royal family has truly achieved the eternal line by chance.

Thirteen firmly remembered what Yang Qingyuan said in class.

"I remember, Master said that the rise and fall of dynasties is the gain and loss of people's hearts. If they lose people's hearts, they will perish. If they win people's hearts, a new dynasty will rise. The principles of the world. The principles of the world are the principles that everyone in the world believes in, and these are all the principles of heaven. The principles of heaven are the axioms of the world.”

On Blue Star, the one who overthrew the Han Dynasty was the heaven that is dead, and the yellow sky should stand;

"When you make people in the world unable to eat and wear clothes, the people in the world will not let you eat and dress with peace of mind. The only way to make the world peaceful and the Great Zhou prosperous forever is to make the Great Zhou and the people of Li tied together."

Today is different from the past. Although the wisdom of the people has not yet been developed, the power of the aristocratic families is no longer what it used to be, and the landlord class has also begun to collide with the rising big businessmen.

At this time, the support of the Li people is the root of stability in the world.

When Mr. Ziren answered Mr. Huang, how to jump out of the historical cycle rate, he gave the answer-people's supervision.

When the government represents the interests of the people, the people will naturally support him.

It is still the same in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If Zhou Ting can let the people in the world wear clothes, eat enough, and live a peaceful life, then they will not think about rebellion.

But if there is a choice, who will follow the conspirators to do things that kill their heads? !
"The so-called court struggle and factional balance are just means, the goal to be achieved is to conquer the hearts of the world!"

……

Zhu Zhanhou is still a little confused, he understands the truth, but how to do it? !
