Chapter 258 Enron sees Dugu (1)
"Why so early? What time is it?" An Ran squinted her eyes and muttered.

Yang Yan helped her cover the quilt, lowered his head and kissed her flushed pink face, and replied helplessly: "It's probably 04:30. I have to be there when the palace gate opens at five o'clock. Brother's breakfast can only be served at Eat in the carriage. You should sleep more, but don’t sleep too late, you have to get up at eight o’clock at the latest, and you must have a good breakfast, you know?”

"Yeah." An Ran agreed in bed, and muttered again, "Brother, if you become the emperor in the future, we must change the time of going to court. Let's change it to eight o'clock in the morning, and everyone can go to six o'clock." get up……"

Yang Yan shook his head with a smile and said: "Okay, okay, okay, if my brother becomes the emperor, I will change it. Go to sleep by yourself, my brother is gone..."

Yang Yan didn't let the girls stay on duty at night, but reminded them that they must wake him up when the time came, so the two girls were waiting outside, with hot water and everything ready.He washed himself quickly, combed his hair, changed his court clothes, and drove to the palace in a carriage. The breakfast consisted of a pot of soybean milk and two eggs.

Generally, ministers dare not eat when they go to court. First, they are afraid that they will not be able to hold back, and second, they are afraid that farting, belching, etc. will be indecent in the court, and they will be impeached by the censor.But Yang Yan had no such scruples at all. He even thought that if he really couldn't hold back when he was in court, he would ask his father for leave. In short, the body is the most important thing.

Chang'an Street in the early morning is very quiet, except for the carriages or sedan chairs of officials going to court, there is generally no one else.When meeting colleagues, no matter which faction they belong to, Yang Yan also greets them gently.

Outside the palace gate, King Kang and King An were not surprised to see Yang Yan coming. Obviously they had already received the news, but they were still very surprised that Yang Yan had chosen the Ministry of Industry.

"I heard that the third brother has gone to the Ministry of Industry. Congratulations! The third brother always likes to tinker with new gadgets, and going to the Ministry of Industry complements each other." Kang Wang Yang Xing named Congratulations, but in fact he came to attack and ridicule Yang Yan. The tone and demeanor unconsciously carried a bit of arrogance.

Yang Yan seemed not to have heard it, but still smiled and said gently and considerately: "Thank you, brother. The younger brother also thinks that the Ministry of Industry is good, as long as he can share his father's worries, it will be the same wherever he goes."

Wang An and Yang Hui smiled and said: "The third brother is right. Everywhere is to share the worries of the father. We brothers share the same feelings for the father. The eldest brother is also working hard in the household department. The second brother I also have a lot of things to do in the Ministry of Officials, but the third brother is more leisurely in the Ministry of Industry. Father is also thinking about the ten years of Yanmenguan before the third brother, how hard it was, and now that he returns to Beijing, he should take more rest."

Yang Yan said with a smile: "Sharing father's worries, An Rui dare not say bitterness. The six ministries complement each other, and there is no distinction between high and low. They just perform their own duties, and they all do things for the court and the country. Since the younger brother has taken over the Ministry of Industry , I will not dare to slack off in the slightest, please rest assured, the two elder brothers, the younger brother will definitely take care of the Ministry of Industry seriously and responsibly."

Both Kang Wang and An Wang couldn't find a bargain in front of Yang Yan, so they had to force a smile and didn't speak any more.When the ministers waiting outside the palace gate saw this, they couldn't help secretly admiring His Highness King Ping's demeanor.Especially the officials in the six ministries who have no real power and have always been looked down upon by other colleagues. Yang Yan's words "there is no distinction between high and low officials in the six ministries" can be said to have scratched their itches. .Even the ministers of King Kang and King An have to admit that His Highness Prince Ping does look more generous.

Finally, the heavy palace gate slowly opened with a creak, and the officials, led by the three princes, entered the Taiji Hall of Daxing Palace for the early court.

Early in the court, the emperor promulgated the decree that King Ping was in charge of the Ministry of Industry, which made all the officials slander.I don't understand why His Highness King Ping went to the Ministry of Industry instead of the Ministry of War?Does this mean that Kang Wang and His Royal Highness An Wang jointly defeated Ping Wang?

After the early court, Yang Yan did not go directly to the Ministry of Industry, but followed his father back to the Palace of Qinzheng.

"But something?" Yang Hao asked him.

"Father, I want to run a regular publication, just like the booklet you read, but much larger. The preliminary plan is two feet high and six feet long. I named it a newspaper. The content in it This is how I think about it. If there are any new poems and articles written by talented scholars in Chang'an, they can be selected and published on it; if there are any new government orders and measures from the court that the people need to know, they will also be published on it; what happened in Chang'an or other places New things can also be known to the common people; Erchen also invited someone to write a book to serialize it, just like Erchen wrote the Legend of the Condor Heroes before; It can also be published on it and widely advertised..."

Yang Yan slowly told his father about his idea, and Yang Hao was fascinated by it unconsciously.

Yang Hao has been the emperor for so many years, and his brain is not inflexible. As soon as Yang Yan said it, he was very sensitive to discover the important role of this newspaper.

"There are not many people who can read and write. Do you sell this newspaper or give it away? I'm afraid the expenses are not small, right? But you asked the father for money? This father doesn't have it. Don't play with the father." Although the Sui Dynasty was powerful, it had always been light on corvees and poor on taxes, but the frontiers had always been unstable. There were wars every year, and there was not much money in the national treasury.

Yang Yan said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, my son will not give away this newspaper for nothing. My son intends to sell it and will not lose money. However, my son would like to ask you for a pair of calligraphy as a masthead. Think about it, there is your imperial pen inscription on it. Above, everyone who has some spare money in the family has to buy it and keep it as a family heirloom?"

Hearing this, Yang Hao couldn't help pointing at his son with a smile and scolding: "You cunning! So you still point to the father to earn money for you!" If it was just an inscription and he was not allowed to take money from the internal treasury, Yang Hao was still willing to support it. .

As soon as Yang Hao waved his hand, the four treasures of the study were quickly prepared on the imperial case. "Tell me, what name do you want?"

"Father, my son thought of a famous name called 'Da Sui Zhiyin', what do you think?"

"The Voice of the Great Sui? The Voice of the Great Sui..." Yang Hao pondered for a while, and the more he read it, the more he felt the name was good. "This name is really good!"
