The fiftieth chapter of the fourth volume of the opening of the emperor's prosperity is self-deprecating

Qiu Taiyi and the others' minds are naturally not Yang Shi and Zou Wenteng and others can feel that the situation is serious compared to today's events, not to mention that not long after the hundred officials left, the old eunuch Lu passed on the emperor's words and deeds after learning that the hundred officials went to the East Palace to congratulate the festival, which made everyone even more cold sweat.

Whether it is secretly amassing a large amount of money, or forming a dark guard, it is basically enough to meet the standard of rebellion, but despite doing so many things behind Lao Tzu's back, Yang Yong has never had the intention of rebelling, which is related to his status, if he is not the prince, maybe he will rebel, but when he is already the prince, he is not forced to the extreme, and it takes too much perseverance to make the mind of rebellion.

The imperial power of this generation is too big, so big that people like Yang Yong do not dare to challenge it easily, before Zhou, as soon as Emperor Xuan of Zhou ascended to the pole, the original important ministers who rode on the head of the prince all poked their necks, Yang Jian is such a masterpiece, after doing the great Qianning, he can only deal with it carefully, lest he be careless, and he will end up with the whole family beheaded.

After the death of Emperor Xuan of Zhou, although Yang Jian only held the capital, the princes of the Yuwen clan were all over the place, and through the division of imperial power, in the end, the family that was stronger than the Yang family either took refuge or ended up like Wei Chi Yuan, and died and died.

Yang Yong remembers that someone said that suspicion is like a seed, once you move your mind, it is like watering the seed, and it will only grow more and more lush, even if it is a father and son, once there is suspicion, it is almost impossible to eliminate it.

Although Zhang Qiu Taiyi and the others were all resourceful people, they had to face the emperor's suspicions, and they couldn't find any good way for a while, this day. The discussion did not disperse until midnight, and the East Palace could only act more low-key in the future, in exchange for time to regain the emperor's trust in the crown prince.

The fifteenth year of the opening of the emperor can be said to be the most low-key year pass in the East Palace, and most officials see the prince except for the winter solstice. The rest of the time, the prince did not even step out of the gate of the East Palace, and many people became suspicious of the claim that the prince was infected with the wind and cold.

The bell of Daxing Temple rings in the middle of the night. It means that the new year begins, and the newly-born Great Sui has spent fifteen spring and autumn periods and entered the sixteenth year of the emperor's reign.

The state of the Great Sui was in full swing, and last year the population of the whole country was counted. It has exceeded 55 million, and the country's cultivated land has reached 65.85 million hectares. The income of the household reached 23 billion yuan, and the cloth was 5 million horses. 430,000 horses of brocade and 22,000,000,000 stones of grain.

This income, compared with the first year of the emperor's reign, increased the money fivefold, and the cloth increased twelvefold.

The brocade increased sevenfold. Grain has increased fourfold, and last year a new Luokou warehouse was added to store millions of stone grains. Now that the autumn grain is harvested, the entire Luokou warehouse has been filled, and the household department reports that next year it is necessary to build a new warehouse equivalent to the area of two Luokou warehouses, otherwise the taxes collected by the court will face a situation where there is no treasury to save.

The Great Sui is thriving, for the court officials, there is no doubt that it is very proud, but over the years, the emperor has become more and more mean, so that everyone is a little confused, sometimes frightened, the emperor hates luxury, hates corruption, this is of course good, but the emperor likes to send people to bribe officials privately, and then use this as a basis to arrest people, although this move has played a very good effect, many officials are worried that the other party is sent by the emperor when facing bribes, and dare not accept bribes easily, although there are still many officials every year to show the law, It's just that compared with the previous dynasty, the officials of the Great Sui are quite honest, but the emperor's move inevitably makes some important ministers look down on them, and they are too inferior, not like what Ming Jun did.

The second thing is that the emperor has been too murderous and suspicious over the years, and Li Juncai joined the army in Chuzhou only because he wrote: "The emperor favors Gao Ying too much." Yang Jian ordered people to whip Li Juncai to death in the court, last year as the criminal department of the waiter Xin Jian because he wore red pants to the court, Yang Jian thought that Xin Jian this is to avoid evil, the emperor as evil, in a rage, to push Xin Yan out to behead, if it were not for Dali Shaoqing Zhao Xuan desperately fought for reason, now Taichang Shaoqing has become a dead person, but others are not so good life, a year, more than ten ministers died in the court, and the emperor almost killed one person in the court every month.

The ministers who were killed cannot be said to be innocent, but their crimes are generally smaller, and most of them are far from the level of needing to be killed, which makes many people endangered, of course, these officials do not have the courage to rebel, but there is a precedent for the crown prince to succeed to the throne first, Emperor Xuan of Zhou has just been the emperor for a month, and he passed the throne to a few years old, and he called himself the emperor.

As early as the sixth year of the emperor's reign, some ministers saw that the emperor only rested for two hours a day, and he was too tired, so he persuaded the emperor to abdicate to the crown prince

Qing Jia refused, and the person who proposed it was not punished, this spring was because he thought that the queen would kill Mrs. Xuanhua with a cane and take the initiative to take the Zen position. This time, the ministers responded to the East Palace to celebrate the festival, and they did not have the desire to let the prince ascend to the pole as soon as possible, but the prince did not see everyone on the grounds of illness, and many officials gave up, and they did not bother the East Palace these days, which made Yang Yong a lot quieter.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the court reopened the early court, and the eunuch on duty had something to play early, and as soon as the words of retreating from the court fell without anything, Yang Yong stood up from his position: "Father, the emperor, the son has something to play." ”

Everyone looked at the prince one after another, but they didn't expect the prince to be so active on the first day of the new year, Yang Jian nodded: "Quasi-play!" ”

"Father, since ancient times, the monarch is the minister, the father is the son, the son is the crown prince, and the principle must not have the slightest flaw, the father and the queen are the two saints in the palace, and the minister is the minister of the two saints, not the minister of the son, the son thinks that the minister of the court should be forbidden to call himself a micro minister in front of the minister, and the son of the minister is no longer called the minister of the minister, and I hope that the father and the emperor will approve it!"

As soon as Yang Yong's words fell, there was a buzz in the hall, and no one expected that at the beginning of the new year, the prince would have to restrict himself.

Yang Jian was also surprised when he heard the prince's proposal, these days, he was uncomfortable when he thought of the scene of the hundred officials and He Donggong in his mind, the Son of Heaven was rich all over the world, but he couldn't accept the fact that he was getting older day by day, he knew in his heart that there would be a moment in the world that would be handed over to the prince, but there was no last opportunity, how could he let go of it in his heart?

Seeing that the prince was willing to cut his own power, although it was only a nominal title, Yang Jian still felt a burst of joy in his heart, but he was reluctant to show it on his face: "What do you think of the prince's words?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do, whether this is the prince's self-humility, or sincere words, if the outline is reasonable, the queen and the emperor are called the two saints in the palace are not in line with the outline, if you agree with the prince's words, you can't help but feel ridiculous, if you don't agree, what kind of reason to refuse the prince's own proposal.

Seeing that all the ministers didn't speak, Yang Liang stood up from his position: "Father, the crown prince is the prince, sooner or later he will ascend to the throne, there is nothing rude about the way of the monarch and the minister, the sons think that there is no need to prohibit it, if it is forbidden, how is the prince's position as the prince and the sons and others different?" ”

Hearing Yang Liang's words, Yang Yong's eyelids couldn't help jumping, the last time the Baiguan Festival, Yang Yong's first suspicion was that Yang Liang was a ghost in the middle, after all, Yang Liang was the first to go to the East Palace, but after the investigation, he dispelled his suspicions about Yang Liang, Yang Liang was the youngest, the power was also the weakest, and he had just arrived in Bingzhou, there were only a few officials in Beijing who were familiar with Yang Liang, and they knew it when they checked it, and Yang Liang had no reason to do it.

Now Yang Liang's words are ostensibly for his own sake, but in fact, he is reminding the emperor all the time that the particularity of the crown prince's position is difficult to say whether it is intentional or unintentional, Yang Yong's mouth can't help but show a wry smile, is the royal family really so ruthless, even the youngest fifth brother began to fight the idea of the throne.

As soon as Yang Liang's words fell, the ministers immediately found a reason, many important ministers agreed with Yang Liang's words, but they vetoed Yang Yong's words, Yang Jian's face was calm, but he was very unhappy in his heart, it was rare that the prince was willing to take the initiative to reduce his identity, but these outsiders wanted to push back, but he couldn't refute the words of the ministers, so he had to say: "Since this is the case, this matter can be discussed later!" ”

"The emperor is sage, and the ministers obey the order."

The crown prince proposed his self-deprecation status for the first time in the new year, and many people speculated that it must be related to the incident of the Baiguan Festival, and the prince retreated as an advance. Now that the emperor has delayed this matter to the future, it will inevitably be closed, and he has not taken this matter to heart, from the winter solstice to the present, the early dynasty has stopped for half a month, and many major matters need to be dealt with urgently, and everyone has turned to the next topic.

A few days later, the emperor suddenly issued an edict, and the holy decree vigorously praised the prince, agreed to the prince's request, and asked everyone to no longer call themselves micro-ministers when facing the prince, but only to be commensurate with the lower officials, and the prince was not allowed to call the ministers the secretary's family, and the ministers received the holy decree, they were all stunned, but the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was the prince's own proposal, and everyone had nothing to say.

After this day, Yang Yong also became more and more modest, as little as possible with the important ministers of the court, when talking, all officials were directly addressed to the official position, at the beginning, many people were at a loss in front of Yang Yong, did not know how to call themselves, after a long time, everyone gradually got used to Yang Yong in front of no longer called himself a micro-minister.
