Chapter 739: Enthronement

On March 26, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the country name was Xuanping.

This year became the first year of Xuanping.

Emperor Xuanping, who was only fifteen years old, ascended the throne and his first holy decree was to grant amnesty to the world. Penalties for crimes such as accidental injury and theft were released from prison ahead of schedule.

Those who commit heinous felonies are also exempted from capital crimes. But don't think about getting out of your cell and dying in prison.

Emperor Xuanping's second decree was to ask his mother to be the queen mother. Queen Pei has been the Empress Dowager Pei since then, and Concubine Gu Shu has become Concubine Gu Shu. Yu Meiren's position has also been upgraded by two levels, and now she is Concubine Yu.

The third decree is to reward the loyal ministers of the Great Chu.

Officials below the third or fourth grade will be promoted to one rank. High-ranking officials such as the Patriotic Gongjingguo Fair Xihou and the Six Shangshu have reached the peak of their official positions, and they cannot be promoted, so they will be rewarded with gold, silver, jade and false titles.

The most rewarded are Zhou Shangshu Gu Zhangyuan and Qian Sacrifice Wine.

The three of them are all Taifu, and they have carefully taught and cultivated the Son of Heaven. Emperor Xuanping valued their closeness and trust, which was also human nature.

As soon as these three holy decrees were issued, the people rejoiced, the harem was peaceful, and the court was full of voices singing praises of virtue.

In this piece of harmony, there are also some voices that are not very harmonious.

For example, some of the generals played a fold and asked Emperor Xuanping to pardon the Pei family.

This twist and turn, on the surface, seems to want to shoot the new emperor's dragon fart. If you think about it, you can see the sinister intentions.

The Marquis of Yong'an committed a felony of disobedience, and the Pei family was exiled from their home, which was the will of the first emperor. As the Son of Man, as soon as he ascended the throne, he changed his father's will. This is unfilial!

After Emperor Xuanping saw this recital, his heart was surging and he was annoyed. Even if he issued an order to reprimand this general.

Gonggong Ding, who went to deliver the decree, was articulate and scolded fiercely, scolding the other party to the point of disgrace. After scolding, he immediately changed his grinning face to apologize: "...... Our family also acted on orders, not intentionally humiliating General Zhou. General Zhou, please do a lot of Haihan. ”

General Zhou was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot.

After Ding's father-in-law left, General Zhou "fell ill".

The Duke of Yasukuni entered the palace with a ashamed face, and pleaded guilty on behalf of General Zhou: "...... General Zhou was a rough-minded warrior, and he was supported by the Marquis of Yong'an. As soon as Yong'an Hou died, the Pei family ended up in exile in Lingnan. General Zhou has always been obsessed. Seeing that the emperor ascended the throne, this reckless man thought that it was a good time to overturn the case for the Pei family, so he went on such a setback. ”

"Please calm the emperor's anger and spare General Zhou."

The pale young son of heaven is still resting on the couch. When Yasukuni was talking, a hint of anger flashed across Emperor Xuanping's pale face.

The tacit wrestling between monarchs and ministers has officially begun.

This General Zhou is just a pawn who is being used. It is fake to rehabilitate the Pei family, and it is true to poke the hearts of the new emperor and the Empress Dowager Pei through this twist and turn.

Emperor Xuanping said lightly: "Rest assured, I am not a person with a chicken's belly. I sent someone to reprimand General Zhou, and this is the end of the matter. General Zhou took a two-month leave of absence, and I was approved. Let him 'recuperate' in the house, and take advantage of this time to let him reflect on himself. ”

"It's okay to say what you should say, but you don't have to say what you shouldn't say."

"The word loyalty, it's useless to just put it on the lips. I am neither blind nor deaf, I can see if I am truly loyal to me. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Yasukuni Gong with deep meaning.

No one knows whether the Yasukuni Gong is in a state of mind. However, the face is not leaking, and he responds respectfully.

After the announcement of the Jin State retreating, Emperor Xuanping showed a trace of tiredness on his face.

He Qi, who was promoted to the commander of the imperial guard again, frowned and said in a low voice: "The emperor is tired, so take a good rest." ”

Emperor Xuanping pulled the corners of his mouth without self-deprecation: "I want to recuperate in peace, but I don't stop one by one." A few days after I ascended the throne, someone secretly stumbled over me. ”

He Qi's brow tightened.

This General Zhou was obviously instigated by others to take this trick.

The person behind it is either Wei Guogong or Yasukuni Gong.

Ping Guogong is the commander of the border army and sits in the border pass all the year round. Although he holds the power of the army, he is far away from the court. The Duke of Wei Guo and the Duke of Yasukuni are different. They are all veterans of the Three Dynasties, and when the first emperor was alive, he was deeply respected by the first emperor.

The generals pay the most attention to factions, and half of the military generals in the DPRK and China have been supported by the Duke of Weiguo and the Duke of Yasukuni. The four marquis also have their own generals. As soon as Yong'an Hou died, the generals under his command were openly and secretly co-opted into the hands of others.

Now that the Marquis of Jinning and Zhenyuan are about to fall, the generals are even more confused.

"The father personally issued an order to condemn the Pei family." Emperor Xuanping's face was tired, and his voice was low: "I have not been on the throne for half a month, and it is impossible to change my father's will without authorization." ”

"They mentioned the Pei family because they wanted to embarrass me and the Queen Mother."

"I'm knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger this time, and they have to stop for a while."

He Qi helped Emperor Xuanhe lie down and tucked the futon for him. I couldn't help but sigh secretly in my heart.

With such hard work and annoyance, how can you "recuperate"?

……

This wave has not subsided, and Zongren Mansion Zongzheng has also made a comeback, asking the Son of Heaven to pardon the eldest prince and the fourth prince.

The implication is that you have ascended the throne and sat on the dragon chair, and as the Son of Heaven, you should be magnanimous. It's really inappropriate to keep my brother in prison all the time. There are also several princesses and princesses, and the granddaughters of the emperor and the emperor, who should also be settled.

From the perspective of the clan, of course, I hope that the Son of Heaven will be "benevolent". In this way, if someone in the clan makes a mistake or causes trouble in the future, he will be dealt with leniently.

After all, you can't write two "yuan" characters in one stroke. As a royal family, who wouldn't want a little more privilege?

This time, Empress Dowager Pei personally came forward and summoned Zongzheng into the palace.

This Zongzheng has a long history in the clan, a generation older than the dead Emperor Xuanhe. He is over 60 years old this year, loves all kinds of wine and money, is not tall, and his belly is sticking out.

Seeing the Empress Dowager Pei, Zong Zheng's expression was not very respectful, and he bowed a little arrogantly: "The minister has seen the Empress Dowager." ”

If it is according to the generation, Empress Dowager Pei should call him Uncle Siwang.

However, Empress Dowager Pei obviously didn't mean to share family affairs with his successors, and her mouth was: "King Pingjun, the mourning family invited you into the palace today because there is something important to discuss with you." ”

King Pingjun has been a Zongzheng for twenty years, and he has been pressed by Emperor Xuanhe to immobilize. Now that the new emperor is young, and the queen mother is a soft and useless woman, he has to put on a righteous shelf.

"What's the matter with the Queen Mother, the ministers are listening." King Pingjun's mouth was quite respectful, but the expression on his face was not like that at all.

Empress Dowager Pei glanced at the past, and her expression was faint: "King Pingjun is already old and has worked hard for the clan for many years. It's time to step down from the post of Zongzheng and retire for the rest of his life. ”

King Pingjun: "......"
