On July 29, the Guanjie drum was beaten, and the first meeting of Meng Zezhi after he became the throne was held at Huangjimen.

Different from the previous dynasties, after Emperor Taizu ascended the throne, taking into account the strict winter atmosphere, hundreds of officials played things one by one, and the officials were standing for a long time, so he separated the ceremony from the play. After the brief ceremony, the ministers went to the palace of the Huangjimen to play in turn, while those who had nothing to do were returned to their respective offices.

This is what is commonly referred to as ‘Yimen Tingzheng’.

When I arrived at Emperor Guangde, twenty-two years later, due to the good and bad health, he stopped the noon dynasty and only opened the early dynasty. Later, he changed the early dynasty system to reduce the number of early dynasties and set it to every three or six. The nine-day Shang Dynasty, that is, from the daily Shang Dynasty every month to nine times a month.

After Meng Zezhi succeeded to the throne, he had no intention of being diligent, and simply followed the old system of the previous dynasty.

Qianqing Palace, Zhaoren Palace.

Listening to the knock at the door, Lu Li, who hadn't slept all night, recovered from his thoughts. He took a breath, stretched out his hand and pushed the people under him, and yelled softly: "Long live, it's time to get up. ."

Meng Zezhi stretched out his hand to hold Lu Li's hand on his chest and hummed a few times, not thinking about it very much.

Lu Li pursed his lips, took his hand out of Meng Zezhi's hand, and touched it down, rubbing it quickly or slowly. .

When the dough swelled and collapsed, Lu Li's hands were sore.

Even more sleepiness disappeared at this moment.

Meng Zezhi was full of gluttonous expressions, and he couldn't be more satisfied with Lu Li's way of awakening.

He kissed Lu Li's forehead: "You sleep a little longer and I will go to court."

"Yeah." Lu Li responded.

Meng Zezhi got up and got out of bed with scratches on his back and waist.

The recent Lu Li is very enthusiastic, with a lasting taste of indulgence.

Meng Ze knew that he knew well, and then decisively decided to have a showdown with Lu Li later.

After washing up under the service of the servants, Meng Zezhi lifted his foot out of Zhaoren Hall.

Lu Li was left lying on the bed secretly hurting himself.

After a few whiplashes, Jingyang's bell rang loudly, and the hundred officials filed into the Huangjimen in accordance with the ranks of the left and the right.

After a while, surrounded by the eunuchs and court ladies, Meng Zezhi walked up to the throne and accepted the worship of the civil and military officials in an upright manner.

"Long live my emperor, long live long live!"

To be honest, the feeling of self-respect and the surrender of the people is indeed very refreshing. Meng Zezhi's gaze swept across the rows of officials kneeling on the ground in the temple, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and then said slowly: " All love is flat."

"Long live Xie!"

Meng Ze knew not to speak, and a group of civil and military officials lowered their heads silently, motionless.

A month ago, the tragedy outside Wumen was still vivid. Thousands of **** corpses were stacked like a mountain. It is said that it took a whole day to clean the blood on the ground.

At that time, the Shenji battalion responsible for defending the city was not damaged.

In addition, since these days, the Shenjiying has arrested people everywhere. Anyone who was involved in the case of the Eighth Prince's conspiracy was ransacked and sent to prison. The three divisions (the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate) were overcrowded.

For a while, the people in Beijing were panicked.

Then there was Tao An, the great **** standing next to the throne. On the day the Eighth Prince conspired, he publicly admitted that both the Hubu Shangshu Gan Zhengfu and Tao An belonged to him. As a result, all the nine families of Gan Zhengfu were sent to prison afterwards. Tao An did not move like a mountain.

What does this show?

It shows that Tao An was a person Meng Zezhi knew from beginning to end.

——The eight princes are being played around.

Combined with the performance of Emperor Guangde at the time, I am afraid that he did not know about it.

What a scheming and means!

Even the five princes palpitations for such an unfathomable city government shown by Meng Zezhi.

Meng Zezhi said: "I look to the emperor Meng to test Emperor Taizongwu to reclaim Longen, to pay the magical instrument, and to impose the world. I respect the edict and respect the heaven and the father, be diligent and love the people, and respect the three selflessness..."

"...Emperor Taizu once said in the second year of Jianping: The way of the king is to know the people and to keep the people safe. Now that the military affairs of the southeast provinces have not yet been leveled, the people have suffered tragically. I want to revitalize culture and education, cultivate military preparations, and climb up. We will advance the virtuous and calm the ugliness, so as to protect our country's billions of years of Piji, and hope that all the monarchs will encourage us.

"Long live and wise, ministers must do their best to die."

Listening to the people on the throne sip "Feng Di", Wu Bei", and "Dang Ping", and remembered that the other party insisted on using the word "Wu" as the year name, all the civil servants couldn't help their scalps tingling.

What about Emperor Liu Yuan and Di Wen?

One militant emperor is enough to have Emperor Guangde. If another Emperor Ningwu is placed on the table, the people of the world will suffer!

It's just that despite thinking so, no one dares to touch Meng Zezhi's mold at this time.

"All the love is flat."

"Long live Xie!"

After talking about political ideals, Meng Zezhi picked up the tea bowl on the table and drank two sips of tea, and then said, "Tao An, declare the decree."

"Yes."

Tao An bowed to Meng Zezhi, and then took a scroll of imperial edicts from the tray held by the little **** standing beside him, and sang: "Feng Tian carries on the emperor, and the edict said: I will stand by the heavens and the people, the monarch. Benevolence and education Zhaoshu is in Taihe, and Huayi and Yi are in charge of Xi...Yi Tan is the grace of Yu, for the restoration of the world. But the world can be pardoned: sins are very forgiven for those who do not cause them, and they are forgiven!"

The so-called permanent amnesty refers to those who committed murder, arson, tomb robbery, banditry and other crimes are not forgiven.

"...In addition, the elderly people and the lonely and helpless are given two feet of silk and a bucket of rice... Three years of tax exemption from Zhengzhou Prefecture, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Province, and Fengyang, Huai'an, Xuzhou, Chuzhou, and Yangzhou in Zhili Province this fall. Taxes and grains are exempted, and the rest of the prefectures of Shanxi, Zhejiang, Fujian...Half exempted..."

After the fall of the Eighth Prince, Meng Ze knows that he copied a lot of good things from the homes of him and his party members. There are six million taels in cash, not to mention the piles of rare treasures.

We must know that during the Guangde period, the treasury's fiscal revenue was only a little over eight million yuan a year.

Thanks to them, Meng Zezhi dared to exempt taxes like this.

Hearing this, the courtiers kneeling in the hall could not help but heaved a sigh of relief. Since Meng Ze knows that he can hold the people in his heart, at least it shows that things are not too bad.

"... Since February of the eighteenth year of Guangde, because of the imperial examination fraud case, civil and military officials, military and civilians, etc. have been rehabilitated. Civil servants and civilians have been rehabilitated. Civil servants who have died are exempted from their families. Those who return to their nationality will return to the public, those who are far away from the army will still return to the guard, and those who are prostitutes will be released to the Ning family. After entering the official property, the number will be returned..."

In the eighteenth year of Guangde, in order to deal with the eldest prince, the second prince worked hard to make an imperial examination fraud case. After the incident, the eldest prince was detained and more than a dozen officials involved in the case were pushed out and beheaded at the Meridian Gate. There were as many as two or three hundred family members, either exiled or confiscated as prostitutes.

The expressions of the ministers changed. This purpose was clearly to reverse this unjust case, but it was just because it took the royal family's face into consideration and didn't make it clear.

When even a minister choked up and shouted: "Long live wise."

I want to come to these victims to have his old knowledge.

The ministers reacted, and Shan called "Long live benevolence."

"...Because of the Tang King (eighth prince)'s rebellion, many people involved in the case, and the decline of court officials, Enke was opened in the first year of Ningwu. It was announced to the world, and the ambassador of Xian County heard about it!"

"Long live my emperor, long live long live!"

After going through the process, it's time to divide the spoils.

The civil and military officials were short of breath.

Only saw Tao An once again took a scroll of imperial decree, and began to sing: "Feng Tian carries the emperor, and the system says: Shengren Guangyun, everything is everywhere, and you don’t respect your relatives. Mrs. Xiao of Song Dynasty, Kun Yi Yuxiu, Moon Room The brocade thread pierces the clouds. I have raised me personally for more than nine years. I am grateful, and I am also suitable for honor and pet. It is Yi Jiafenger who is a saint lady, who is better than a prince, and does not kneel when entering the dynasty, and praise and worship."

The officials were shocked, and never expected that Meng Zezhi's first imperial decree was given to the Xiao family.

Prince Bibi, he won’t kneel when he enters the dynasty, and he won’t be famous for praise and worship... What kind of honor is this?

For a while, everyone didn't know whether to envy the Xiao Clan or sympathize with Song Guogong being crawled to the head by his wife.

At Song Guogong's mansion, the **** had already declared the decree, so Zhao Lingwu directly took the decree on his behalf.

After a moment of awkwardness, only joy was left in Zhao Lingwu's heart. Meng Ze knows that the better he treats the Xiao family, the more light he will receive from the Song Dynasty government.

Sure enough, Tao An continued to sing: "...Er Song Guogong Zhao Lingwu, the army commander and general are the mainstay of the court, and the country's Gancheng. Tegal has a thousand households, and the prospective descendants attacked three generations to reduce the nobility."

Raid three generations to lower the nobility-

Zhao Lingwu was ecstatic. It is vain if he does not kneel when he enters the dynasty, and he does not praise and worship. This is the real benefit.

"Long live Xie Wuhuang, long live long live!"

All the ministers were envious, and they looked forward to their rewards.

"Zheng Guogong Qian Gongcheng... Add five hundred households to enjoy the Prince's Lu."

"Shenji Battalion Commander Li Chengyuan... Feng Wu Kangbo, 300 households."

"Guozijian Jijiu Xiao Deren... Feng Anping Bo, 300 households in the town, Zuo Shi Lang of the Ministry of Gifts."

"Shangshu Lu Zengxiang from the Ministry of Industry...Shangshu from the Ministry of Moving Households, and a bachelor of Wenhuadian."

...

"Sun Zhongyu, the prefect of Wenzhou...

...

It was already an hour after the hundreds of imperial edicts were awarded.

One person succeeds, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven. There is nothing more than this.

Meng Zezhi looked at the red-faced civil and military officials in the main hall, and only slowly said: "Since the reward is finished, let's talk about the Tang Wang (Eight Princes Party) conspiracy."

Hearing this, the ministers were all looking solemn.

Lu Zengxiang immediately stood up: "Long live the enlightenment, the king of Tang conspired, and the evidence is conclusive. All his party members will be dealt with according to the law, but the king of Tang..."

Meng Zezhi said indifferently: "According to my intentions, according to the emperor's will, kill—"

"What?" The ministers' expressions changed drastically.

How could Emperor Guangde want to kill his own son?

What he meant clearly was to imply that Meng Zezhi, after a hundred years, would violate his ‘will’ to forgive the king of Tang and gain a good reputation for filial piety and benevolence.

Unexpectedly, Meng Zezhi wanted to make a fake show.

That's his brother!

A flash of chill suddenly flashed in everyone's hearts.

"The king of Tang conspired to conspiracy, and the crime is not to be punishable. To kill him, one is to punish him, and the other is to warn the world that the prince breaks the law and commits the same crime with the common people." Meng Zezhi said coldly.

How can you be worthy of the tens of thousands of innocent people who died tragically in Qingzhou without killing the Eighth Prince?

Not to mention keeping the Eighth Prince, what if he poisoned Tao An to murder Emperor Guangde.

There is also the second prince, Meng Zezhi also didn't plan to let it go.

Anyway, this wasn't his real brother, and he didn't mind being an emperor who would be feared by hundreds of officials.

The officials could not refute this reason.

The author has something to say:

Meng Zezhi: He smiled like a scumbag.

Lu Li: Comfortable enough to curl up your toes.

The title of Mrs. Fengsheng is really appropriate here, so I used it. (Cover his face)
