Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 411 Imperial Tomb Guards

Although I don't like you very much, it doesn't mean that other people in the court will exclude you.

Yang Yanzhang said: "If you can serve as the guard of the imperial mausoleum, I will allow you to participate in the construction of the imperial palace. At the same time, I can give you five hundred hectares of fertile land and a box of gold, silver and jewelry."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gao Shun said with cupped hands.

Although guarding the imperial tomb is not an important job. However, for Gao Shun, this is also a job.

"Okay, I'm tired too. Please step back."

Yang Yanzhang gave the order and lay down on the bed to sleep.

Upon seeing this, Changsun Wuji and Gao Shun respectfully left.

Afterwards, the two of them dispersed.

After Yang Yanzhang ascended the throne, a grand canonization ceremony was immediately held.

At the same time, all the adult males of the royal family went to Luoyang to welcome the new emperor to the throne.

After Yang Yanzhang held the canonization ceremony, he began the construction of the palace.

He chose the largest temple in Jiangdong County, called Longmen Temple. Because this temple was once a Taoist holy place in the early Han Dynasty. Therefore, in Yang Yanzhang's view, this temple can suppress evil spirits.

And this Longmen Temple covers a large area. It is a full 4,000 square meters, and its architectural style is similar to that of an ancient Buddhist temple.

The reason why Yang Yanzhang chose Longmen Temple as the site is mainly because Longmen Temple was built a long time ago and is relatively well preserved. Another point is that the building materials of Longmen Temple are all hard and thick stones.

The same goes for the materials used to build palaces. Therefore, it does not take much effort to build a palace.

Moreover, after Yang Yanzhang planned to repair the palace, he would expand the size of the palace to six feet and eight feet high. Such a palace is not something ordinary people can afford.

In addition, Yang Yanzhang also purchased thousands of acres of fertile land near Longmen Temple to grow food and vegetables. In addition, a lot of charcoal, bamboo and other materials were purchased.

"Father, I want to eat meat!"

He looked at Yang Yanzhang ordering the soldiers to grill meat, and immediately shouted and demanded.

Yang Yanzhang looked at Li Zhi with a smile, then asked the maid to take out some lamb legs, handed them to Li Zhi and said, "Okay, here's the meat for you to eat. Remember, don't make any more noise during dinner."

Li Zhi muttered, then started chewing the delicious barbecue.

"Your Majesty, this little emperor is quite funny."

Changsun Wuji chuckled.

Over the past few days, he has slowly let go of his grudge. Because after Li Tai died, Changsun Wuji felt that he had fallen out of favor.

At least Li Zhi listened to Yang Yanzhang. Yang Yanzhang treated Gao Shun very harshly. However, Li Zhi stood up to plead for Gao Shun every time, which moved Yang Yanzhang very much.

"Gao Shun's temperament is too upright, so it may not be easy for him to integrate into the royal family. However, I am prepared to reuse him."

This sentence made Gao Shun breathe a sigh of relief.

He was not that comfortable following Yang Yanzhang.

Now, Yang Yanzhang wants to reuse him. This made him feel a little happy.

After Yang Yanzhang finished speaking, he fell silent.

When Gao Shun and Changsun Wuji saw this, they both lowered their heads.

They all could see what Yang Yanzhang was thinking.

After a long while, Yang Yanzhang said slowly: "Gao Shun, I have thought about it for a long time, but after all, I still don't want to let you go."

"Your Majesty, you are Your Majesty. No matter how you arrange it, I will support you." Gao Shun hurriedly knelt down and said: "However, if His Majesty is not willing to use Wei Chen, Wei Chen will never force it."

Yang Yanzhang sighed and said: "Gao Shun, actually I know that such a thing is too cruel for you. I hope you don't mind." Gao Shun shook his head and said seriously: "Your Majesty is very kind to me. Like a mountain. It’s not too late for me to be grateful.”

Yang Yanzhang laughed when he heard this.

Gao Shun's loyalty is beyond imagination. Yang Yanzhang even believes that in the current Tang Empire, apart from Yang Guang, there is no other person who can compare to Gao Shun.

Of course, there may be, but certainly not many.

Yang Yanzhang must give love to such a loyal person.

Otherwise, he would become a foolish king.

Yang Yanzhang took a deep breath, calmed down the restlessness in his heart, and continued: "I plan to appoint you as the imperial censor, responsible for supervising all officials."

"His Majesty!"

Changsun Wuji suddenly raised his head and exclaimed.

This was something he didn't expect at all.

Although Yushitai has the power to supervise all officials, it also controls the evidence of corruption among all officials. Moreover, the Yushitai is one of the most dangerous institutions in the court, and the slightest mistake may lead to fire.

Yang Yanzhang What does this mean? Could it be said that he plans to completely abolish the position of Baiguan?

"Think twice, Your Majesty!"

Changsun Wuji looked solemn and said: "Your Majesty, is this decision too hasty?"

Yushitai is related to the promotion of officials all over the world. Any mistake may lead to disaster.

Yang Yanzhang snorted and said, "Wuji, I have already made a decision on this matter. You don't need to dissuade me."

After a pause, Yang Yanzhang asked again: "Where are those old ministers? What do they think?"

"They are naturally opposed to it." Changsun Wuji replied: "After all, the positions of the officials are very critical. Your Majesty wants to remove them from their positions, how can they just give up. I'm afraid this matter will not be solved so easily."

Yang Yanzhang smiled lightly. He was not angry because of Changsun Wuji's words. Instead, he showed an expression of wisdom.

Changsun Wuji was stunned, wondering what kind of medicine his Majesty the Emperor was selling in the gourd.

"Since all the officials are against it, I can only take special measures." Yang Yanzhang said solemnly: "Passengers are told to arrest all officials suspected of corruption in Yushitai.

In addition, I have decided to promote Pei Ju and Fang Xuanling to the rank of Prime Minister and Shangshu Ling to take charge of the official administration. "

Changsun Wuji stared at Yang Yanzhang with his eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost.

The world is crazy. A military general is allowed to manage the government.

You know, most officials are civilian officials, and military generals are basically lackeys of civilian officials.

By doing this, Yang Yanzhang was tantamount to giving up his military power. This decision is really unbelievable.

"Your Majesty, are you testing us?" Changsun Wuji said in a deep voice.

Yang Yanzhang nodded and said: "Although Pei Ju and Fang Xuanling have both political integrity and talent, they lack experience and cannot hold positions such as prime minister or ministerial order of a country."

"Then why don't you take charge of it yourself, Your Majesty?"

"I don't have time." Yang Yanzhang said without hesitation: "All my energy is used to deal with government affairs. If I really take the position of prime minister or minister, I'm afraid I will be so busy that I don't even have time to practice. In this way Come on, how can I ensure the stability of Datang?"

Changsun Wuji was silent.

Indeed, Yang Yanzhang was a diligent and studious emperor. He had to practice almost every night before going to bed. This is already a lot of hard work for a young emperor.
