A few days later, in the Di'an Pavilion, Xiang Chi was practicing calligraphy while asking Zheng Sanbao next to him, "I heard that Chu Hao has been to Yu Mansion."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Zheng Sanbao nodded.

Xiang Chi smiled and said, "It seems that he really has a crush on Aya, how is the situation?" ”

"The old prince seems to be reluctant, and the queen mother is also a little reluctant," Zheng Sanbao replied.

Xiang Chi's writing hand stopped slightly, and said, "Chu Hao has been here for four or five days."

"Yes, Your Majesty, plus it's been exactly five days since today"

"It's been long enough, and Nila still needs him to go back to preside over the overall situation, so I see! As long as Aya has no opinion, this marriage is still okay, let Feng Pan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, go to the Zhao State Mansion," Xiang Chi ordered.

"Obey"

After Xiang Chi put down the pen, he moved his body and said, "Don't write, go to Kunning Palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty"

"Your Majesty" At this time, Gao Liang, the secretary general of the secretariat, suddenly came to the cabinet in a hurry, hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Yang Xiang and Han Zhang's case quarreled in Zhongshu Province."

Xiang Chi was stunned for a moment and said, "Why is it noisy!" ”

"Your Majesty, it is said that it was because Yang Xiang decided to implement the examination method and abolish the redundant officials and redundant personnel of the six departments, and the number of redundant officials and redundant personnel was as high as 213, so Han Zhang's action in the case was too big, and he raised his hand to oppose it, but Yang Xiang insisted on carrying it out, so the two sides argued," Gao Liang explained.

"Oh!" The corners of Xiang Chi's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile: "It's normal to have quarrels, Zhongshu Province controls the governance of officials across the country, and the people's livelihood, so there should be some arguments."

"But Your Majesty" Gao Liang was a little worried, after all, some time ago, Xiang Chi spoke, the matter of Zhongshu Province is not too important in the future, don't tell him, the secretariat is only to review the folds, and then send it back to Zhongshu Province, it seems that Xiang Chi completely delegated power to Yang Yan, if so, Han Wenliang is not an opponent.

"It's okay, go down! Literati are just mouths," Xiang Chi waved his hand directly.

"Yes," Gao Liang retreated with some confusion.

Xiang Chi smiled and said, "If you can't afford to quarrel like this, I really can't help it."

"Your Majesty, if you are dissatisfied with Yang Xiang, you can directly dismiss him, who can stop His Majesty now" Zheng Sanbao asked in a low voice.

"I'm not dissatisfied, Yang Yan is very obedient now, I don't like Zhongshu Province, and I don't like the position of Zhongshu Ling" Xiang Chi said.

"Your Majesty means"

"Gu Zhi Yao Shun, that is a myth, is an example of the emperor, but everyone is inert, and I am the same, Yang Yan is very obedient, but now no matter what it is, he comes to tell me, it is my physical strength, I feel tired and upset when I review it every day," Xiang Chi said solemnly.

"Your Majesty has worked hard for the country"

"It can't be said that it is hard, it can only be said that I want to be lazy, this point does not have to be avoided, but if you want to be lazy, you have to give the right to the Zhongshu Province, and the Zhongshu Order has the right to govern six departments and veto one vote, this right is too big, it will be easy for people to get lost, so it needs to be reformed, but this kind of thing can't be opened, it's best for them to take the initiative, I am pushing the boat down the river" Xiang Chi said.

"What Your Majesty said is very true, but judging from the slaves, Han Zhang's case is not estimated to be Yang Xiang's opponent," Zheng Sanbao said.

"Of course he is not an opponent, but if I don't care about it this time, the six Shangshu will find a problem, and if they are combined, Yang Yan will not be able to hold on" Xiang Chi said.

"I see, Your Majesty Shengming," Zheng Sanbao said in reverence.

Xiang Chi stood up and said seriously: "Actually, what I hope to see most Yang Yan can understand my hard work and be able to take the initiative, as long as he takes the initiative, it means that he is really for Da Chu, so that I will not only not give up on him, but also give him higher respect."

。。。。。

Two days later, Yang Yan, who was in charge of Zhongshu Province, directly ignored Han Wenliang's opposition and issued the examination law, deciding to abolish a large number of redundant officials and redundant personnel to improve the efficiency of the imperial court.

And this is the six Shangshu saw that this was issued in the name of Zhongshu Province, and there was no meaning of Xiang Chi, so he immediately began to fight back, not only did the examination law not be implemented, but it led to the contradiction between the six books and Zhongshu Province.

Yang Yan urgently asked to see Xiang Chi, but on the first day he knew that he had quarreled with Han Wenliang, Xiang Chi had already secretly left the palace and went to the Taoist temple to relax.

For the first time, the majesty of Zhongshu Province was dealt a heavy blow.

On the South Gate Street of Luoyang, the imperial capital, above a mansion that is not luxurious, the word "Yang Mansion" is written in big letters.

In the inner hall, Yang Yan sighed, with a tangled look on his face, and an old housekeeper stood beside him.

"Father" At this time, three handsome young men with extraordinary bearing came to Yang Yan.

Yang Yan nodded and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Father, my son has already said that on the day of the quarrel, His Majesty did not stop it, which has already explained His Majesty's dissatisfaction, and now the six departments oppose the decision of Zhongshu Province at the same time, and they have applied for this," a man led by him said with deep eyes.

But why? What did I Yang Yan do wrong, there was nothing wrong with the test method" Yang Yan just can't figure it out! It was His Majesty who gave him the right.

"Father, there is indeed nothing wrong with passing the test, but you have taught me and others that those who are prime ministers should take Your Majesty, the world, and the people as their own responsibility, and abandon their own honor and power, as expected, Your Majesty is not dissatisfied with your father, but does not like Zhongshu Province, because the power of Zhongshu Province is too great, so Your Majesty wants to reorganize Zhongshu Province" The second young man spoke.

"What are you talking about" Yang Yan was taken aback, he had always thought that His Majesty was dissatisfied with his governance, but now it seemed that he was completely wrong.

"Father, the reason why Your Majesty is like this is because although he wants to take a little rest, but the power cannot be too concentrated in one person, but His Majesty cherishes his father, and he hopes that his father will take the initiative to propose it, instead of directly ordering the abolition of his father's Zhongshu order, and his father should push the boat down the river and reform the political arena for His Majesty," the last young man spoke.

Yang Yan was stunned for a moment, looked at the three sons in front of him, and said, "Shiqi, Fu'er, Rong'er, why are you sure Your Majesty thinks so?"

Yang Shiqi, who was the first to speak, stared at him, clenched his fists and said: "Father forgives the sin, because the position of the three of them is always on His Majesty's side."

Yang Yan's face trembled, and then looked at the other two sons, seeing that they both nodded firmly, after a period of silence, he suddenly laughed with relief, and said loudly: "Good, good, others say that the teacher's two sons Zhang Fu, Daniel Zhang's Wenwu Shuangquan, today's father looks at my family's three Yangs are not inferior, even far exceeded"

"Father has won the award," the third son said modestly.

"There are no awards, the three of you are full of wealth, and the poems and songs are all the same, but because of the relationship between your father, you have been pressing you, but even so, you can indeed have such an opinion, you are better than your father, and you can enter the palace as a father" Yang Yan stood up violently.

。。。。。

That night, on the Chengtian Gate, Xiang Chi had already returned, and Wei Zhong and Zheng Sanbao were standing behind him.

Looking at the starry night sky, Xiang Chi said, "Those are really what Yang Yan's three sons said?" ”

"Yes, Yang Yan's old butler is one of Jinyiwei's spies"

Hearing this, Xiang Chi immediately laughed, "Okay, good, even Gao Liang and Du Xuan don't have this understanding, they haven't entered the officialdom, they are so compatible, Sanyang is a talent who belongs to my era!" ”

"Immediately send an order, transfer Sanyang to the secretariat, and at the same time transfer the original secretariat Li Yong to Youzhou Zhizhong, and Du Xuan to Yizhou Zhizhong"

"Yes"

"Du Xuan, Li Yong are very good, Du Xuanjun is a little genius, Li Yong can be in charge of a state, but it's been almost a year, I know that they are not the ministers of the auxiliary country who belong to me, their world is outside, Sanyang Kaitai, and Sanyang Kaitai, I have a hunch, they are the virtuous ministers who belong to me" Xiang Chi said expectantly.

Hearing this, Zheng Sanbao clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Sanyang is a family after all, will it?"

"No" At this time, Wei Zhong shook his head and said: "The slave has already talked to the old housekeeper of the Yang family in person, although the three Yangs are brothers, their personalities are completely different, each has its own integrity, one party makes mistakes, and the other will never cover up, but will be more direct than anyone else."

"Haha, this is a good deal in my heart, you don't have to worry," Xiang Chi said.

"Yes"
