Today's palace gate is very lively, and all the courtiers are wearing newly made gorgeous court clothes, three in a handful, and five in a bunch gather together to chat. There are always people who are happy and people who are worried, and this is also true when the new king ascends the throne.

Uncle Yang's carriage slowly stopped next to the palace gate, and Pu Xianyu jumped out of the carriage and helped Uncle Yang down. Everyone stopped talking and looked at Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang lowered his head and carefully sorted out his court clothes, stood aside, and waited for the auspicious time to come, only Pu Xianyu followed by his side, and none of the other courtiers came, and the reason was self-evident.

Finally, the Taihua Gate slowly opened with a rumbling drum, and all the courtiers lined up and entered one by one, and everyone looked solemn, not at all looking happy when they were talking and laughing in front of them.

Xinjun Huan Sheng was dressed in a yellow dragon robe, wearing a crown on his head, and the multicolored jade running through the twelve reels shook gently, colliding from time to time to make a crisp sound. His expression was as solemn and solemn as that of a courtier.

When the ministers arrived, the servants led everyone to the Temple of Heaven, the Temple of Earth, and the Temple to worship, and all these were already Shen Shi. Because they have been kneeling and standing, several of them gradually felt exhausted, and they sat on the steps outside the Zhaohua Palace, completely ignoring the so-called gentleman's way, how can there be any scholarly demeanor.

The bands on both sides began to blow long horns, and the sound was clear, and the music of Zhonghe Shao resounded throughout the imperial city.

The officials of the inner courtyard of the two classes lowered their heads, quickly walked to the main gate of the Zhaohua Palace, and opened the palace door from right to left. Sure enough, the new monarch has a new atmosphere, and even the appearance in the Zhaohua Hall seems to have changed greatly, not as peaceful as before, revealing a solemn feeling everywhere.

Huan Sheng sat on the high dragon chair, and the ministers rushed in, bowing three times and bowing nine times to him, and the sound of "long live" resounded throughout the Zhaohua Palace, and the echo was endless. The young lieutenant standing next to the dragon chair read the edict:

Gifted with imperial power, both longevity and eternal prosperity. The first emperor unfortunately collapsed, and the grief was great. However, the country depends on the king, the people depend on the virtuous lord, the country cannot be without a king, and the people cannot be without a master. It is the old Huan Gong who obeyed the edict of the first emperor and ascended the throne, which is the year of Yongchang.

Huan Gong is the winner, the son of the first emperor, when he was young, the first emperor often sighed: there is the virtue of Gu Yao Shunyu, and the appearance of the emperor.

At the beginning of the establishment of the new emperor, he granted special amnesty to the world, exempted from criminal laws, reduced taxes, and opened the door of longevity and wisdom in the name of consolation to the first emperor Guangde. I am ordered by heaven to inherit the great unification, and I should put all the people first and do my best.

Therefore, all the ministers went to the throne together, and added three stones, in order to help me carry out the major affairs of the country, do not shirk, and the ministers are exhausted, which is a fortunate thing for me and a good thing for the people.

Respect the noble concubine Liu, graceful and generous, with the posture of the mother in the world, give her the phoenix crown and xiaxia, and respect the queen mother.

This heavenly family, Xian envoy informed the temple and the world. In the autumn of the fourth year of Jingtai, Qin this. The ministers take the order!

The ministers knelt on the ground: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

The two classes of musicians began to play the music.

It was not until the enthronement ceremony was announced that it was over, and the ministers slowly left.

Uncle Yang walked out of the palace gate, and Pu Xianyu helped him get into the car again. Originally, Pu Xianyu could still enter the court for the court to discuss matters, but later after becoming the guard of the Taiwei Mansion, he was not even qualified to enter the court, and Uncle Yang also asked him, but Pu Xianyu always said: "I was ordered by the emperor to protect the Taiwei Lord, and I swore to obey it, and I had no other intentions!" ”

Uncle Yang returned to the house, but Zihua had not returned to the room, standing alone on the steps outside the mansion gate, and gently tiptoeing towards the road that Uncle Yang had to pass later.

On this late autumn night, the cold wind is the most penetrating, and it goes straight into the bones. Zihua's figure was lonely, and the wind blew the mink cloak she was wearing fiercely.

Zihua finally saw Uncle Yang's carriage and hurriedly jumped down the steps. The carriage stopped, and Uncle Yang got out of the car and hugged Zihua tightly in his arms: "You don't have to worry, I'm fine, you can rest assured in the house, don't move the tire gas and hurt our children, otherwise you will regret it again." ”

The two of them slowly walked into the door, and the lanterns hanging on both sides of the door swayed from side to side in the wind, flickering and dimming, sometimes as if they were about to go out immediately.

"What do you think of Xinjun today?" Zihua asked softly. The two sat on the edge of the bed, and Zihua helped Uncle Yang take off his court clothes.

Uncle Yang changed his sitting position so that Zihua didn't have to struggle so hard to reach the collar.

"Don't you know about this nephew of yours?"

"How would I know? I have been walking outside the palace, and when I entered the palace, I only went to meet the former queen mother, and I have never been to other palaces. It's just that I heard that this prince has always been the most naughty, and it is funny to provoke those maids from time to time. ”

"I look at the atmosphere of the emperor today, quite serious, even if it is not as good as the first emperor after a long time, it must not be far away, he handles affairs in an orderly manner, without panic. Fortunately, fortunately, if he can be like King Huiwen of the Empress of Qin Xiao, then the old Zhao State will definitely be strong again, and may even surpass all the previous emperors. ”

Zihua glanced at Uncle Yang: "You don't have a low opinion of him, I hope so." By the way, our business ......"

"I haven't said to the emperor yet, tomorrow morning, after all, today is the auspicious time for him to succeed to the throne, if I say that I want to resign and go into hiding, I am afraid that the emperor will think more, whether I am dissatisfied with his accession to the throne, if someone has a heart to pry up, it is not conducive to the harmony of our monarchs and ministers. If the law change is to succeed, it must be doubted by the monarch and the ministers. ”

Uncle Yang stopped suddenly, he couldn't believe that the new emperor could believe in himself like the first emperor, Shang Jun could die generously for the country, and he didn't seem to be able to be so selfless, he also had to consider himself, and this emperor's edict was read by Huang Gongfu, if the new emperor was grateful to Huang Gongfu and let Huang Gongfu do everything, then he must not be far from death, although the first emperor told him whether he should reuse Huang Gongfu, but he didn't think that this can only show that Huang Gongfu was too good at disguise and deceived them.

Uncle Yang always believes that no one wants to be in power overnight, and he is only an idle person, and he is a person like Huang Gongfu who has been boiling for nearly 20 years, and he has already boiled his ambition into a person who thinks about how to survive.

Early the next morning, the ground was covered with a thick layer of frost like snow, and the sky was cold, and the cold wind blowing in the face made people shiver.

At the court meeting, Uncle Yang stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are busy with changing the law and have worked too hard, and they have gradually felt weak in recent days, and occasionally have a splitting headache. ”

Although Huan Sheng is not very familiar with Uncle Yang, he also knows that this person has been helping his father to preside over the government, and even some things his father does not care about and lets him do it.

Just when Huan Sheng was about to speak, Huang Gongfu had already said: "Lord Taiwei has the great talent of the universe in his chest, and he has the bearing to swallow heaven and earth in his belly. Now that the emperor has ascended to the throne for the first time, it is the time for a great talent like Lord Taiwei to exert his strength, how can he resign and retire and be an idler. Isn't it that Lord Taiwei thinks that the officials given by the emperor are too small and too little? ”

Uncle Yang made a gesture and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is already a very human minister, how can there be an official who is small, and the minister has never paid attention to Yulu, the minister is really exhausted, I am afraid that I will not be able to solve problems for the emperor." ”

"That's it, Aiqing, I just ascended the throne, and now if you leave, let the world feel that I can't tolerate you. In the future, your official position will remain unchanged, and all major affairs of the DPRK and China will be handled by various departments. That's it, needless to say. ”

Huan Sheng glanced at Huang Gongfu, he knew that although the emperor was the king of a country, he looked extremely noble, but in fact, this honor was to be carried by others. He knew all the old nobles of Huang Gongfu's faction, and a few of them still played with him to the end. In this way, his heart is naturally biased towards the old aristocracy, and besides, they have indeed been raising themselves. Therefore, Huang Gongfu proposed not to let Uncle Yang resign, so let him keep it first, just slowly take back the authority in his hands first, and it is not too late to talk about it later, even if he is the first minister in the court, without authority, there is no threat to himself.

This is Huan Sheng's plan, as for what Huang Gongfu's plan is, others have no way of knowing, but I am afraid that it is not very good for Uncle Yang.

After listening to Huan Sheng's words, Uncle Yang was quite helpless, so he had to retreat back into his own sequence.

"Is there anything else going on? If you have one, let's talk about it together, or hand it over. Huan Sheng said while carefully looking at the ministers of the two classes of the DPRK and the Central Committee, feeling a little refreshed in his heart, sitting on this dragon chair and watching these so-called courtiers on weekdays be respectful to him, his heart was full of joy, but his face did not show it at all.

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that some criminal laws are too harsh, which is not conducive to demonstrating the benevolence of the government, and over time, I am afraid that it will cause the people to complain," Yan Yifan walked out, bowed down and said, "If the abolition of customs is ordered, the emperor knows that those folk customs have been broadcast for a long time, and the people have long been accustomed to it. The minister implored the emperor to order the abolition of the decree. ”

As soon as Yan Yifan's words came out, Uncle Yang was quite surprised, the emperor had recently succeeded to the throne, and some people had already raised objections to the new laws established by the former emperor, but he had a change of mind, in fact, this was not aimed at the new laws established by the first emperor, but the spearhead was directed at him, and all the new laws established by the first emperor came from his hands.

Uncle Yang said loudly: "Your Majesty, the law established by the emperor cannot be changed, and the people now have some complaints, which is really normal, but they have not adapted to it, and in less than three or five years, there will be no more objections, and the new law is beneficial to the people, and can make the country rich and the people strong." Moreover, these new laws have already been announced to the world, and it is not possible to change them overnight, which is not conducive to the majesty of the state government and can hardly win the trust of the people. I hope that the emperor will abide by the will of the emperor, the blessing of the people of the world and the luck of all ministers. ”

This is the second confrontation between the reformers and the aristocratic faction. Huan Sheng looked at the two classes of ministers, and did not make a conclusion, but said: "Let's talk about this matter later, if the people have been complaining, then it is not too late to change." Anything else? ”

No one spoke in the two classes of civil and military affairs, so it was the end of the first court meeting of the new monarch.
