Taizong Chapter 20: Fighting for the Prefecture in the First Year(2/2)
Yang finally chose Zheng Qi, the deputy chief minister of Henan, because of his outstanding achievements in Henan’s tax reform.
Obviously, no matter what the reason was, neither the Zhao family nor the Murong family could get a good deal, and both received strong beatings from the emperor.
However, Zhao Kuangyi was not as disappointed as he imagined. It was disappointing to see things not work out, but at the same time, he more clearly captured the hesitation in the emperor's attitude, and this hesitation was the hope of Liu Wenhuan and the Zhao family.
Subsequent events seemed to support this. Liu Yang conferred titles on three princes at the same time. Liu Wenhuan was given the title of Ruyang County Duke, Liu Wenji was given the title of Linzi County Duke, and Liu Wenpeng was given the title of Taiyuan County Duke. He probably felt that it was not appropriate to only grant three sons.
It looked so good that Liu Yang also gave several of his younger brothers the title of knight.
Although the Duke of Taiyuan is obviously more important than the other two princes, it is the land of Longxing in the Han Dynasty after all, but even if it is biased, the three princes and the three princes just illustrate the hesitation of Emperor Liu Yang.
In the whole process, Liu Wenji was a little transparent. Almost no one paid attention to him or cared about him. He and his mother, Concubine Xiao Zhuang, kept a low profile as usual, not even interested in watching the excitement. In the end, he picked up a Linzi County Duke for nothing.
of title.
The tossing of the "Prince Controversy" also made Liu Yang a little tired. Less than a year after he succeeded to the throne, there were several turmoils within the imperial court, and they were not minor. It was not until he became emperor that he really realized
, how much "energy" do these dignitaries of the Han Empire have, how much they can do, and how powerful they can be when they do it?
Liu Yang just wanted to maintain a stable environment, devote his mind to governing the country, rectify some of the ills left by Emperor Shizu in a down-to-earth manner, and do practical things for the country and the people, but it was really too difficult.
After all, Liu Yang is not Emperor Shizu. Once he is unhappy, he can flip the table at any time and withstand the backlash of breaking the rules. But Liu Yang is obviously not good at it. Even if he has the power, he does not have the courage. In his bones, he is not capable of doing that.
person of behavior
Of course, in the past six months, Liu Yang's throne has become more and more stable, his authority has been gradually established with the passage of time, and further adjustments have been made to central power and personnel.
King Liu Ai of Lu was worshiped by him as Zhongshu Ling, in charge of the national government. It must be mentioned that no one has held the position of Zhongshu Ling in the entire dynasty of Emperor Shizu. In the past, Tongping Zhangshi, the Minister of Zhongshu, was
He is already the Prime Minister of the Political Affairs Hall, which shows how much Liu Yang values Liu Ai.
In fact, Liu Yan, as a representative of the royal family, takes a seat in the political affairs hall, which is a balancing measure for the foreign court. Both the original Emperor Shizu and the current Emperor Yongxi are happy with this method.
I don't expect Liu Yan to do anything outstanding or have outstanding political achievements, but as long as he occupies that position, he has already played a role.
