Chapter 542: Wang's Guidance to Deal with the Succession

The Wang clan is not afraid of human emperors, but they are also not willing to casually fight with an emperor, unless he threatens the safety of the Wang clan.

Although the Wang clan is now down, it is not impossible to destroy a dynasty.

Wang Xuanze and others first decided to support Yang Yong to test it, but at this time, news came from Jiangnan that there was a rebellion in various parts of the south, and Emperor Yang Jian of Sui sent Yang Su to lead an army to crusade.

At this time, only two years had passed since the pacification of the south, when Yang Guang and Gao Gong pacified the king of Liu Song in the south, and it took less than three months from the mobilization of troops to the pacification.

Three months to pacify the south, in such a short period of time, most of the army was on the way, and the gate lord families in the south basically did not resist. The Great Sui dominated the world, and it was almost unbelievable.

But no one expected that within two years of pacifying Jiangnan, there would be rebellions in various parts of Jiangnan.

"Jiangnan Rebellion, do you understand the specific situation?" Wang Xuanze asked.

"Those Jiangnan families felt that the imperial court was too oppressive, and secretly supported some rogues, routs, and uprisings of ordinary people who couldn't survive." Another Wang Zi briefly explained what he knew.

After the Great Sui ruled the world, Yang Jian sent officials to Jiangnan to determine household registration and land. Naturally, these officials brought the same way from the north to the south.

First, the land was measured, and the land was divided according to the imperial court system, and these officials made false declarations of land at this step, split the household registration, and then collected taxes according to the household registration.

Because there are fewer people in the south than in the north, this kind of land misrepresentation is slightly better than in the north. However, in the south, because of the Zongwangmen's rampant conquest, it was almost effortless during the Sui Dynasty's attack.

Now that the Great Sui dominates the world, the result is also heavy taxes, which naturally makes many people dissatisfied, especially the local Haoqiang and gate valve families.

After all, these gate valve families did not have many connections in the Sui Dynasty, and they naturally suffered a lot of losses in the inventory of acres and the splitting of household registration.

The unwilling family of gate lords began to rebel.

As for why there was no war in the north, it was because before the Sui Dynasty, Liu Song levied heavier taxes in the north, and at the same time, Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty also knew that there were cats in those field books, and he did not levy taxes according to the field books, so the north was quite peaceful.

However, this peace is relatively speaking, not long ago, Wang Xuanze also heard Gao Gong, the uncle of the Gao family, say that Emperor Sui built Renshou Palace, and the officials below forced many people to die.

News came from the intelligence network in the family that there were some rebellions in the land of Qilu from time to time, but they were all suppressed by the local counties.

However, as a new country whose national strength is steadily rising, it has been more than ten years since the founding of the country, and there are still wars in various places, which is a bit abnormal.

"Emperor Sui sent Yang Guang south to quell the rebellion, and with the strength of those powerful men in the south, most of them couldn't withstand it, and they would soon surrender." Wang Xuanze shook his head slightly.

Next, naturally, as expected by the Wang family, Yang Guang went south to quell the rebellion and quickly put down the rebellion, but Yang Guang did not wantonly kill those soldiers of the southern gate lords, but wooed these Jiangnan gate lord families.

Now these gate valves have become Yang Guang's help.

Wang Xuanze did not take the initiative to come out, he was the future head of the family, and his status was noble, so he selected a descendant and went to contact the East Palace in the name of the Huai'an Wang family.

Yang Yong was very anxious when he heard that his younger brother had quelled the southern rebellion and had received the support of the southern family lords.

Especially recently, his father and mother have become more and more dissatisfied with him, and their hearts have become more and more anxious, worried that their position is unstable.

At this time, he suddenly heard from the ministers around him that he could introduce the Huai'an Wang family, and Yang Yong was very happy.

Although Huai'an Wang is not the top door valve, but its strength is strong, and it is very famous among the scholars, more than 100 years ago, Wang has produced two calligraphy masters in a row, known as the saint of calligraphy, its calligraphy attainments are superb, beyond the reach of the dust, highly respected by the world.

If we can get their help, we will definitely be able to stabilize the situation.

Soon Yang Yong met a son of the Wang family, Wang Xuanjing, in the East Palace.

"Mr. is from the Wang family's high gate, today Lone was forced by the King of Jin aggressively, I don't know what Mr. can teach Lone?" After talking with Wang Xuanjing, Yang Yong asked him for advice.

Wang Xuanjing smiled slightly and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this matter is actually not difficult, the Crown Prince is the eldest son, and it is also from His Majesty and the Empress, as long as he is cautious in his words and deeds, and follows the will of His Majesty and the Empress, he will be stable." ”

The Wang family has been in the country for 400 years, and there is too much experience to deal with the seizure of the heir.

Yang Yong listened and hurriedly asked, "I don't know what to do?" ”

"It's very simple, today's sage advocates frugality and does not like luxury, so the prince should promote thrift and lead by example." Wang Xuanjing pointed to the gorgeous clothes on the prince's body.

"If the crown prince likes these gorgeous clothes, he can wear them in the inner sanctum or in private, but when he goes out or enters the palace to meet the saints, he must change into old clothes."

"This is lonely, there are no old clothes here!" Yang Yong said with some distress.

Wang Xuanjing sighed secretly in his heart, this prince really likes luxury, and he doesn't have old clothes, but fortunately, he is willing to listen to persuasion and be saved.

"Your Highness can wash the clothes a few times and dry them before wearing them." Wang Xuanjing said.

The printing and dyeing technology of this period is very backward, and the clothes are easy to fade, and most of the clothes of the prince, emperor and queen are colorful, and they are woven with a variety of colored silk threads.

Therefore, in many gate valve families, those colorful silks and silk satins are basically not washed, and if they are dirty, they are thrown away or rewarded to their descendants.

The emperor, the crown prince, the queen's clothes are complicated to make, the cost is extremely expensive, if it is dirty, it will be replaced with a new one, the cost is extremely high, and the former prince likes to wear a new one.

"In addition to clothes, Your Highness should also be as frugal as possible in this palace, gold, silver, gems and other ornaments should be put away, the palace should not be luxurious, and at the same time write to the two saints, saying that they know their mistakes and have listened to the advice of the saints to promote frugality."

"Remember, you must be on the book, all kinds of luxuries should be canceled, and even the attendants in the East Palace should be reduced, of course, the attendants do not need to be reduced."

"The book should be written sincerely, write more about the family relationship in the past, let the saint remember your good side, and let the saint know that you have reformed yourself."

"In addition, some palace people in the palace will be removed, and those young and beautiful palace people will be sent out of the palace, or they will be assigned to the generals in the prince's six rates, so as to win the hearts of the army, and the prince's concubines will also be dismissed, even if you just keep them outside the palace."
