In the following months, Yang Houzhao followed Li Zhao's method to set up a newspaper to give himself popularity and a good image, and then widely publicized several regulations to check the land.

Because the regulations won the hearts of the people, the local soldiers were eager to seize the land from the hands of the senior generals, but some people were not greedy enough and refused to spit it out, so it led to several fights, of course, in the end the soldiers won.

When the idea was about to make a revolution, that kind of wave was unstoppable, although it was only a few games, it deduced the lessons of the past to the people next to them, so after these few scenes, the army's land was successfully cleared, and then it was divided equally, and it did not cause the rebellion of the vassal king like in the previous life.

And what Yang Houzhao has to do next is military and political reform, which is a major matter, and he has to discuss it with the cabinet.

Li Yangdong died in September, and now the first assistant of the cabinet is Yang Tinghe, and the replacement is Wang Qiong, the secretary of the military department.

Yang Houzhao valued Wang Qiong's talents very much, and also relied on Yang Tinghe's political methods, so he wrote letters to two people separately, asking them to support his reforms.

It was snowing on this day, and the north wind was howling outside.

In this kind of weather, no one wants to go out, let alone at night.

Wang Qiong and Yang Tinghe were on duty together tonight, the two of them were not interesting, they made tea together on the third floor, Wang Qiong's craftsmanship was very good, and after cooking, he poured a cup for Yang Tinghe first, and then he gave it to himself.

Yang Tinghe tasted it and said, "Zipei is a good craft, why can't I make such a delicious tea?" ”

Zipei is Wang Qiong's cousin.

Wang Qiong told Yang Tinghe some skills about making tea, and finally Wang Qiong concluded: "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, or it can be said the other way around, whether it is tea ceremony, sword way, or any way, it is the way of life, and the way of life is the way of governing the country." ”

Yang Tinghe smiled and asked, "What is Zipei's opinion on the reform that the emperor said?" ”

In fact, the two didn't necessarily have to sit together, and did some other things in a circle, just to discuss the emperor's will.

Wang Qiong said: "I think that the promotion and assessment of the soldiers mentioned by the emperor are very good for the military department to decide for itself, and in the end, the soldiers still have to see whether they are strong in battle, not others." ”

Yang Houzhao said in the letter that the promotion within the army is determined by the higher-level generals, but the senior generals are still appointed by the superiors, and there are still eunuchs to supervise the army, and it is necessary to convey the spirit of the imperial court to the soldiers, which is actually the spirit of the emperor.

In other words, the army is still jointly managed by three departments, but it is clear that the power is now greater than before.

And Wang Qiong is the secretary of the Ministry of War, of course he hopes that the power of the Ministry of War will be greater, but Yang Tinghe has scruples, afraid that the soldiers will rebel, but the eunuch supervising the army also has to convey the loyal and patriotic spirit of the emperor and the cabinet to the soldiers, which seems to be able to avoid rebellion.

So the emperor found a way out by himself, and he couldn't refute it, but let him do it and decide to support it, he still felt rash.

Wang Qiong's opinion was the opposite of him.

Yang Tinghe didn't say anything next, and changed the topic: "The emperor doesn't want to come back for the New Year, this can't work, although he won a battle, he can't always stay in the northwest, he has to find a way to let the emperor come back." ”

Wang Qiong nodded and said: "While the New Year is coming, let the queen mother of the two palaces make an order, and the emperor always has to give face, right?" ”

If the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces is allowed to make an order, this matter will be a big trouble, and it will be troublesome to the Queen Mother.

Wang Qiong saw Yang Tinghe's concerns, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "Let's give the emperor a big pomp and circumstance, didn't the emperor win the battle?" I definitely want to be recognized by the imperial court, so that he won't come back? ”

Because they, the emperor, still like to be lively and show off, and if there is such a fun thing, they will definitely come back.

But is it too indulgent to the emperor? It's not a good thing to go to war, as if to encourage him.

Yang Tinghe sighed in his heart, this little emperor can't get used to what he does, what can he do?

****

Yang Houzhao received an urgent report from the cabinet, asking him to return to Beijing to hold a large-scale welcome event for him, and the Queen Mother also sent a letter, missing his son, and asked him to go home for the New Year.

The cabinet people were so uplifting, Yang Houzhao didn't want to go back to Beijing, but now when he thought of the scene where the crowd welcomed him, he was a little moved.

He went to the backyard of the yamen to discuss with Li Zhao: "Do you think we can go back?" ”

Things are on the right track in the northwest, in fact, there is no need for the emperor to sit all the time, the vassal king did not oppose, but Li Zhao felt unsteady, afraid that those people would suddenly attack Taiyuan and murder Yang Houzhao, and it was the Chinese New Year, so he should go back.

She nodded: "The concubine also misses her father and Mingrui, and the concubine wants to go back." ”

Yang Houzhao pinched her chin and said, "Then go back, but you have to go back to the palace with me, and you won't stay with your father-in-law and Mingrui for a long time." ”

Li Zhao bit his lip, and then smiled: "Okay, go back to the palace with you." ”

****

The emperor planned to return to the palace for the New Year, and the group from the capital began to pack up the boxes.

Li Zhao asked Aunt Qin to separate their cages from Yang Houzhao, and not to use the same car.

Aunt Qin was puzzled: "Why? Why don't you go back to the palace with Banzai? After speaking, his eyes widened, and he lowered his voice and said, "Niangniang, don't you go back to the palace with Long Live Lord?" Shall we still wander? ”

How did you become a wanderer?

Li Zhao said: "Long live the life of the long live lord, we have our life, only separation will be good for each other." ”

"But didn't you personally promise to go back with him?"

Li Zhao booed: "Don't let others hear it, I'm coaxing the Lord to go back, he can't live in the northwest all the time, but obviously, even if I want to go back, the Queen Mother won't let me go back, and then the Queen Mother will have an unpleasant relationship with the Queen Mother, the New Year's Day, let's not let the Queen Mother be upset, don't let the Lord Long Live be bad, and when I return to the capital, I will part ways with him, he is really entangled, let's go to the south for a walk." ”

Aunt Qin grew her mouth; "Are you still going to the south?"

Li Zhao smiled: "Yes, the world is big, life is not only in front of you, but also tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, instead of worrying every day, it is better to travel thousands of miles to relax." ”

Aunt Qin thought to herself, wouldn't she have to be separated from the Long Live Lord like this?

Li Zhao suddenly looked back at Aunt Qin: "Don't tell others, don't say it to Zhang Yong, otherwise we won't be able to leave." ”

Aunt Qin nodded hurriedly: "Don't say it, don't say it." ”

****

"Niangniang plans to leave Banzai Ye, and said that she wants to take us to the south, so I told you, don't tell others."

There is no need to guess, it is Aunt Qin and Zhang Yong who are muttering.

Zhang Yong waited for Aunt Qin to finish admonishing, and looked at Aunt Qin with puzzled eyes: "Niangniang often scolds you for being a traitor, I really don't wronged you, but do you think our family will not tell others?" If you don't tell others, our family will tell you too. ”
