Section 128
How to deal with this matter? "
Yang Rong said nothing, he was still digesting.
Wang Tianzhao couldn't protect himself. From the moment his daughter committed suicide, he knew that he was finished. Now the only chance of survival was to show kindness to the new emperor and pray that the new emperor would not implicate the nine tribes. His eyes lingered on the second and third princes for a while. Thinking of Concubine Zhuang and Yao Guangqing present, he decisively chose to be the leader: "A country cannot be left without a master for a day. Now that His Majesty has unfortunately passed away, we should choose one as soon as possible. The eldest prince not only committed rebellion and conspired to kill the king, but he was also expelled from the sect. Therefore, it is natural that the second prince should be the leader. His highness has been well-read since he was a child. He is humble and has a heart for the common people. He has also been in the Ministry of Justice for a long time and has outstanding abilities. I suggest that the second prince ascend the throne as soon as possible and take charge of the overall situation!" , the man knelt down, performed the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, and kowtowed with tears in his eyes, his attitude was very sincere.
Cao Qing, the newly promoted pavilion elder, said: "The elders and young ones are in order. There is nothing unworthy about the Second Highness. I will reconsider it. His Majesty is newly mourning. Please ask the Second Highness to ascend the throne as soon as possible and preside over the funeral affairs." After saying this, he knelt down to express his agreement.
Yao Guangqing was naturally excited and didn't say anything.
The third prince looked at them and thought for a long time. After all, he did not want his mother-in-law to end up like a virtuous concubine. Although he understood that giving up would mean missing out on the world, he was still young and did not have a deep obsession with this, so he chose Surrender: "Brother, please ascend the throne as soon as possible."
The third prince's resignation made everyone who was still wavering make up their mind, and hulala immediately fell to their knees.
At this moment, Yang Fan, who had absolute control over the palace, looked at the second prince, who seemed to be at a loss, and looked at Concubine Zhuang, who had been in control of the situation from the beginning. He sighed in his heart that the second prince had found a good mother and concubine. He only hoped that although this A prince who has made no mistakes but is equally undistinguished can truly secure the position of emperor.
He eventually knelt down too.

Then there was a chaos of war, and You Hongyin began to take charge of the overall situation. He first asked Yang Fan to strictly guard the palace, and at the same time, he notified everyone of the death and sounded the death knell.
Yang Fan had to stand up and obey the order. He understood the underlying meaning of His Highness the Second Prince. If anyone dissatisfied with his succession as the second prince, Yang Fan would need to step in to deal with it. Yang Fan himself was related by marriage to the eldest prince, and when the eldest prince entered the palace, he brought his private seal with him, so that he could deceive and order a small number of guards guarding the palace to obey orders. He originally thought that no matter which prince ascended the throne, he, the general of the Zhuguo Kingdom, would probably end badly, but he didn't want the second prince to choose to leave such an important matter to him, either because he didn't understand it or because of other considerations. It is indeed difficult to do an errand that offends others, but it just makes atonement for one's sins.
Naturally, there are still procedures to go through for the enthronement. At least the emperor's funeral must be completed before the enthronement ceremony can be held. However, the second prince's ascension to the throne has been approved by so many senior monks in the court. It is basically a certainty. Even if some people object, it will be successful. The probability is not high anymore.
Several pavilion elders were worried on their way out of the palace, especially Wang Tianzhao, who seemed much older for a moment.
After leaving the palace gate, Yang Rong and Guan Xiu walked together.
Yang Rongdao: "Mr. Guan, do you think what happened today is too much of a coincidence? Why did Concubine Zhuang and the Queen know so many things so coincidentally, and they actually sent messengers to inform us that the guilty woman and the eldest prince were arrested? Right."
Guan Xiu said: "In any case, His Majesty has passed away. What matters is not the dead, but the people who are still alive. At least His Highness is not an arrogant and stupid person. He should grow into a qualified monarch in the future."
Yang Rong sighed and said: "I'm not worried that His Highness is a bad learner, I'm just worried that he will listen to the woman's words too much. And as you can see today, Concubine Zhuang is not a simple character."
"That's why we, the cabinet ministers, need to control the overall situation, assist the new emperor in governing the country, and benefit the people of the world. I am not worried that the new emperor will be controlled by the concubine, but I am worried about Wei Qian."
Yang Rong naturally heard the meaning of Guan Xiu, and understood that Wei Qian was probably eager for a weak emperor to ascend the throne. As a capable minister in the cabinet, he wanted to hold the power tightly in his own hands. He said: "Then it depends on how many of us there are. "
"Wei Qian is very capable. I am afraid that the rest of the cabinet combined will not be his opponent. Now that Wang Tianzhao, the chief assistant, is useless, and Cao Qing is a newcomer, we can only pay more attention to it." Guan Xiu is an old-fashioned person. But being old-fashioned has its advantages.
Yang Rong said: "Naturally."
After the two of them got on the carriage and drove home, Guan Xiu suddenly said to the coachman: "Go and thank you, sir."
He didn't want to say more, but the coachman obviously knew very well who this Master Xie was, so he immediately changed direction and headed towards Xie Zheliu's house.
The next day, You Hongyin presided over the court meeting in his capacity as the second prince. The officials in the court seemed to have tacitly recognized the second prince's status as supervisor of the country. They only waited for the enthronement ceremony to be held and gathered around the new monarch.
This surprised You Hongyin. He felt that at least some people had different opinions. How could it go so smoothly? He glanced at Wei Qian, who was with the old god, and made a guess. It seemed that his policy of showing weakness was effective. Wei Qian really wanted a less independent prince to be the emperor, so that he would have more opportunities to take power.
You Hongyin doesn't care about these things. His show of weakness will only last until the enthronement ceremony.
Then the entire court became busy. First, there was the funeral of the previous emperor, and the temple name was established as "Wenzong" and the posthumous title was "Xiaohuai". After that, there was the coronation ceremony of the new emperor, and the reign name was set as "Zhongxing". Then, the empress and concubines were promoted to empress dowagers and other troublesome things.
It took almost more than a year for the entire handover and transition process to be completely completed, and You Hongyin also took this opportunity to re-establish some palace rules, such as the adult princes were sealed out of the palace and no longer lived in the palace. Those who want to fight for power will always fight, and a palace cannot trap people's hearts. It is more important to make the security and defense in the palace airtight.
Although You Hongyin was very busy in the past year or so, he quickly took over the government affairs. He has always read Wenzong's red comments and is very familiar with these affairs.
At this time, all officials discovered that the second prince had completely become another person after ascending the throne.
Although he did not rush to perform, make major official transfers, or change the current policies to realize his policy ambitions, the new emperor's familiarity with state affairs surprised everyone. He was completely unlike a novice emperor who had been trapped in the Ministry of Justice for more than two years and had made no achievements and had just ascended the throne.
Wei Qian was promoted to the chief minister of the cabinet, but he found that the new emperor was much harder to fool than Yang Jian. The new emperor did not change the big rules, but some changes in the details were enough to shock people. For example, when the eunuchs reviewed the cabinet's review of the memorials, it was no longer a simple spot check, but a brief record was made and the brief was submitted to the emperor for approval. Moreover, this brief record was not made by just one eunuch, but also required another eunuch to review it, and then submitted to the cabinet for review. After it was correct, it was submitted to the emperor for review, helping the new emperor to better understand all affairs.
What surprised the cabinet even more was that Wang Tianzhao was not liquidated by the new emperor. Logically speaking, whether Wang Tianzhao participated or not, he was the grandfather of the rebellious eldest prince, but now, Wang Tianzhao was only stripped of his title of Grand Secretary, and was transferred to become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue! The former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Huang Zhi, became the Minister of State Affairs, which had not been held for a long time. Although this official position was only at the same level as the Minister of State Affairs and did not hold as much power as the Minister of State Affairs, he could be a counselor in the cabinet and write for the emperor. At the same time, he was actually the "intern candidate" of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.
But in fact, You Hongyin just felt that Huang Zhi was really not capable enough. The Ministry of Revenue was a very important department, and he was not afraid of Wang Tianzhao making any waves, so Wang Tianzhao, the Grand Secretary who had been the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, still shined in this position until he found a replacement. And Huang Zhi was thrown into this position first. After all, he was also a person who supported his ascension to the throne, and he could not be treated badly.
The new emperor has never been very drastic in the transfer of officials in the court, but horizontal transfers and job rotations are still relatively frequent. This situation has lasted for nearly four or five years. Gradually, all officials feel a different atmosphere.
Being an official is much easier.
It seems that the work is getting more and more handy, and the relationship with colleagues is getting more and more harmonious. The cooperation between various departments is also very smooth. There is no longer the feeling of being constrained everywhere in the past, and there is no longer the worry of being nervous and uneasy about being labeled as a party struggle in the past.
But it is not to say that the new emperor is good at everything. After the mourning period, the new emperor followed the will of the late emperor and married the daughter of Xie Zheliu and canonized the queen. However, the queen did not give birth to an heir two years after the wedding, and the new emperor did not intend to expand the harem.
"Your Majesty, don't be lazy, today's work is not yet completed." Xiao Yinzi is now the first person around the emperor, but he doesn't feel any different from the past.
I still have to supervise this lazy guy to get up and work, instead of lying under the flower tree waiting for the petals to fall into the wine glass, and then happily drinking the wine with the fallen flowers. -_-!This-_-!work-_-!is-_-!organized-_-!on-_-!read-_-!online-_-!read-_-!users-_-!on-_-!
It's too much for an emperor to be so idle.
Holding a wine glass and smelling the fragrance of flowers, You Hongyin made a "woo" sound, but had no intention of leaving.
Xiao Yinzi changed the subject: "Even if you don't want to review the memorials, go to the harem for a walk."
"Forget it, I'll go and read the memorials."
There are only three women in the harem that are worth You Hongyin's visit, his stepmother, his biological mother, and his wife.
His father's concubines either followed their son out of the palace to build a mansion, or were moved out of the palace by You Hongyin. Only the concubines who had given birth to royal blood were concentrated in the palace where the princes were once placed. Some of them also brought young royal brothers, who still needed to attend classes in the palace until graduation.
The affairs of the harem are now mainly handled by the queen. Empress Xie was born in an official family. Although she was not very familiar with it at the beginning, she gradually got the hang of it.
Forget the queen, the two empress dowagers are not easy to deal with. Since the fourth sister got married, the former Concubine Zhuang and now Empress Dowager Yao were extremely bored, and Empress Dowager Wenren rejected the proposal to adopt a young royal brother. She didn't have to deal with palace rules anymore, so she was in a state of having nothing to do.
Idle people always have to find things to do. The two empress dowagers were fighting vigorously at the beginning. Empress Dowager Wenren was not afraid of the emperor's retaliation at all, and she fought the emperor's mother cleanly. But the two of them found the fight boring, and there were no other people in the harem to get involved, which made the two big figures who stirred up trouble in the harem feel empty, lonely and cold.
In the end, they became good friends who appreciated each other, and even began to urge the emperor to take in concubines to make the harem more lively. The empress, who was taught by virtue, did not object at all, and agreed happily. She enthusiastically discussed with the two mothers-in-law how to choose a woman who was easy to give birth to for His Majesty.
Whether the empress pretended to be virtuous and generous, or was really open-minded, it made You Hongyin speechless. This kind of pressure from his mother multiplied by two and his wife urging him to get married made him not know what to say. In the end, he spent a lot of effort to refuse this waste of time and meaningless thing.
"Forget it, I'll just read the memorials." You Hongyin had no choice but to start a day of heavy work. Think about it, there are at least three days off a month, and at least there is no need to attend the morning court on these three days. Compared with the emperor of the previous dynasty who had no holidays all year round and only a few days of annual leave, the emperor of Huangguo is still very happy.
The high efficiency of processing speed cannot match the large number of memorials, which started after lunch and ended at dusk.
You Hongyin began to think about when he could make his next plan.
After all, in Yang Yizhan's heart, ascending the throne was not enough. Only by reviving the country, leaving a name in history, and becoming an emperor through the ages could he achieve his life goal.
Now, the unstable period of power transition has passed, and the government has been almost sorted out by himself. The two imperial examinations have also added a lot of useful fresh blood, and the military generals have also been sorted out. Although they cannot guarantee 100% loyalty, they should not want to be rebellious.
But this only means that he is sitting on the throne.
