King Zhao's enthronement ceremony was held in the Qianyang Hall in the palace city.

The procedure for enthronement is very cumbersome, and the Ministry of Rites rarely has the opportunity to show that the whole process is arranged in an orderly manner. Before the mourning period was over, the music was omitted, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites ordered people to directly carry the livestock, read the sacrificial texts, worship the heavens and ancestors, and welcome the new emperor

Yang Gao's face was very immature, but he stood on the stone steps, in front of the hundred officials, without the slightest nervousness, and quietly listened to the arrangements of the officials of the Ministry of Rites. Until the emperor changed the crown and the hundred officials knelt down, he instantly became majestic, his eyes were sharp, and he glanced around the hundred officials, which was daunting, and he couldn't help but surrender.

Li Xuanba thought that when he was twelve years old, he was still climbing trees everywhere and digging birds' nests, and he was immediately ashamed.

Yang Gao ascended the throne, announced an amnesty for the world, changed the Yuan Emperor Tai, and posthumously called Emperor Yang of Sui as the Ming Emperor, and the temple name was Shizu.

After the ceremony, the civil and military officials followed Yang Gao into the main hall, Yang Gao sat on the dragon chair, nodded to the father-in-law beside him, the father-in-law took out the edict, read the content of the edict loudly, nothing more than to say something like working hard to avenge the first emperor. Many officials were very cooperative, showing sadness and weeping bitterly, showing their loyalty.

"Luoyang was originally a land of ruins, the first emperor had a lofty vision, and built a majestic city here, I know the feelings of the first emperor for Luoyang." Yang Gao's voice was very crisp, and there was a milky breath: "Now that the first emperor is in trouble, and his body is still in Jiangdu, it really makes me ashamed, I want to go to the coffin in person and return, what do you think?" ”

Duan Da preemptively replied: "Your Majesty, the Wagang thief army is stationed outside the city, you should stay and preside over the overall situation!" ”

"The rebel Yu Wenhua is leading the rebels north, Your Majesty, you can't be in danger!" Another minister came out and said, "You can't take care of your loyalty and filial piety. And ignore the people of the Great Sui! ”

"If I can't bring back the body of the first emperor, won't I be a son of man in vain?" Yang Gao frowned and said, "Or, do you have other good plans?" Although he was pale, he looked extremely cute because of his delicate appearance.

"Back to Your Majesty. Weichen thinks that you can sit in Luoyang and send the king of Yue to Jiangdu, so that you will not chill the hearts of the people in the world, nor will you put yourself in danger. Wang Shichong, who was standing on the right, bowed down and said.

Yang Tong stood at the top of the left side, he had been drooping his head since he entered the main hall, even if Wang Shichong mentioned him now, he didn't look up. It's like falling asleep.

Regardless of whether Yang Tong agreed or refused, Yang Gao and the courtiers could answer, but Yang Tong pretended to be deaf and dumb, so that Yang Gao could not say what he had thought of. But leaving Yang Tong in Luoyang would make him very uneasy, so he coughed lightly, looked at Yang Tong and said, "King Yue, General Wang's idea, what do you think?" ”

"Wechen, but by His Majesty's orders." Yang Tong bowed down and said. The tone was flat, without the slightest emotion. Of course, Yang Tong knew that the road to Jiangdu was dangerous. But he had no way to refuse, Yang Gao and the courtiers echoed each other, he had no reason to refuse at all, otherwise he would be a disloyal and unfilial person, even if he could stay, he would be infamous.

"That's very good." Yang Gao did not show an excited look. He bowed his head and said: "The king of Yue has a pure character, and he leads the river to defend it. "This edict seems to be a reward, but it actually tells Yang Tong that if you make it to Jiangdu alive. Just stay there honestly and don't come back.

Yang Tong bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

sent Yang Tong away, Yang Gao ignored him anymore, and glanced at his father-in-law beside him again. The guild willed, took out another edict, and read: "Xiaoguo rebelled, the officials of the various ministries were vacant, and now Duan Da is the general of Nayan, the general of the right Yiwei, and Wang Shichong is the general of the Nayan, the general of Zuo Yiwei, and the acting secretary of the ministry, and the Yuan Wendu and Lu Chu are the internal history orders, and the Yuan Wendu is also the general of the left Xiaowei, and the emperor is Wuyi is the secretary of the military department and the general of the right Wuwei."

The new emperor ascended the throne, amnesty to the world, and sealing hundreds of officials is the most commonly used means to win people's hearts, even if Yuan Wendu and Huangfu Wuyi supported Yang Tong, the king of Yue, they also got a thick seal.

"Ling Zhongyong Wei Li Xuanba is the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, rewarded with gold books and iron coupons, and went to Xingyang to guard his position."

The Golden Book Iron Coupon is the so-called death-free gold medal. At the beginning, Li Xuanba entered the palace to face the saint and asked Yang Guang to reward him with a few gold medals for avoiding death, and was scolded by Yang Guang, but now that Yang Gao has just become the emperor, he rewarded him so generously.

Before the weak crown, he served as the secretary of the Ming Ministry, and received a bounty book iron coupon, it seems that Li Xuanba has received great favor, but Li Xuanba does not think so.

Although the Ministry of Civil Affairs is a third-grade book, it is responsible for the financial and treasury affairs of the imperial court. There is only one lonely city left in Luoyang in the Great Sui now, how can there be any financial needs to be coordinated? The remaining money in the treasury can be counted in less than a day.

The Xingyang Army is Li Xuanba's capital to save his life, and Yang Gao removed him from the post of Xingyang Tongshou, which can be understood as wanting to seize his military power, which Li Xuanba can't bear, so he calmly came out and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Weichen is only a shallow learner, and he has no ability to control the Ministry of Civil Affairs at all, and I ask Your Majesty to appoint others." ”

"Zhongyongwei, if even you say that you are only a shallow learner, who else in Luoyang City dares to be conceited and talented?" Yang Gao smiled and said: "The poem you wrote to the eldest princess at the beginning, she has preserved it to this day, and there is also the title you left for the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine, which one is not a problem for the ages?" ”

The poems that Li Xuanba gave to Yang Ling were regarded as treasures by Yang Ling and carefully stored, but Yang Gao wanted to see them, and with Yang Ling's love for him, he naturally would not stop them. As for the problems that Li Xuanba left for Cai Xijiu, Yang Gao, as a prince, is not difficult to know.

The original unintentional move turned out to be an excuse for Yang Gao to seize his military power today, which was something Li Xuanba never imagined. But Li Xuanba didn't understand that there was a marriage contract between himself and Yang Ling, and the relationship between Yang Ling and Yang Gao was extremely deep, so why did Yang Gao do everything possible to take away the Xingyang Army?

"Your Majesty, that's just some of Weichen's little cleverness, and it can't be put on the stage." Li Xuanba's heart was very cold, but his face did not show any color, and he still said calmly: "Besides, Weichen is in charge of 20,000 Xingyang troops, and he really can't pull away. ”

"Zhongyongwei, when the court is employing people, why do you refrain in every possible way?" Yang Gao's face became gloomy, and he said dissatisfiedly: "You told me that since you returned to Luoyang from Hedong, how many times have you been to the military camp?" I heard that you let Li Jing lead the three armies, even if it is a battlefield battle, you are only beating drums and cheering behind the army, may I ask if you have any military affairs in the Xingyang army that you want to handle personally? ”

"Lord Zhongyongwei is reluctant to hold the military power in his hands?" Wang Shichong said with a smile: "Under the Putian, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, could it be the king's minister, what does Lord Zhongyongwei want to do? ”

"No matter what I want to do, I won't do anything that is sorry for the court." Li Xuanba couldn't answer Yang Gao's words, so he looked at Wang Shichong and said, "And since Xuanba commanded the Xingyang Army, he has never lost more than 100,000 troops in a battle!" (To be continued.) )
