Chapter 153 The New Emperor Establishes His Authority
In addition, Emperor Xu named his grandmother as the Grand Empress Dowager and moved her to Cishou Palace, and named his mother as the Empress Dowager and moved her to Cikang Palace; he also named the Crown Princess Sun Jing as the Empress and granted her the residence in Kunning Palace.
He also rewarded all the officials, both big and small, who had followed him and made great contributions to his cause.
Su Yuejian's father, Su Yuzheng, was promoted to Imperial Censor, the first rank.
It is said that the new emperor will start three things when he ascends the throne. For the first one, Nangong Xu wanted to exile the five kings who were in the way and participated in the fight for the throne out of the capital.
Nangong Xu likes to send away anyone who poses a threat, while the empress dowager wants to keep people under her nose so that she can feel more at ease. If someone makes a mistake, they should be punished, but she must spare their life because they are of royal blood.
The grandfather and grandson had different political views and a conflict occurred.
The new emperor wanted to establish his authority, and with the Xuan Mirror Bureau, it was easy for him to find the faults of the Five Kings.
During the mourning period, the five kings raped the late emperor's unfavored concubine.
The five kings thought that since this person was going to guard the tomb of the late emperor anyway, they might as well let him have some fun.
As the saying goes, using force may give you a temporary pleasure, but if something goes wrong, you will regret it for the rest of your life!
The Xuan Jing Si found the woman and promised that if she dared to identify the person, she would be sent out of the palace and live in hiding, never to return to Beijing.
After this incident, Nangong Xu finally dismissed the five kings from their posts and imprisoned them in the clan house.
It can be considered as an explanation to the Queen Mother.
The second step was to promulgate a nationwide method to promote the cultivation of earth immortals after discussing with Su Yuzheng.
"Once this thing sprouts, it will be poisonous. In the past, the three kings offered it to the earth immortal knowing that it had already sprouted to murder the late emperor. However, the crime has been punished and the same crime cannot be punished twice.
How innocent is the superfood gifted by God. It is high-yielding and can be used as food. As long as it is properly preserved, eating the sproutless earth fairy can save the lives of many people.
Since I ascended the throne, I have received a message from Heaven that earthly immortals are divine objects bestowed by Heaven on the Kingdom of Jing, and they should not be given a bad name by villains.
From this day forward, I will restore the reputation of the earthly immortals and find a way for the people to survive.
Agricultural officials at all levels are specially ordered to study the methods of planting and promote them comprehensively without any mistakes. "
These imperial edicts were drafted and polished by Chen Ming. It can be said that Chen Ming did a very good job as the emperor's secretary.
Su Yuzheng mentioned this matter to the new emperor. He wanted to make a great contribution with this achievement, but he didn't expect that Emperor Xu would use it to improve his performance and didn't even mention Su Yuzheng.
I also wasted a hundred kilograms of potato seeds as seed potatoes.
Su Yuejian had no choice but to ask Zhongli to allocate 100 kilograms of potatoes to be sent to the capital, and to write down the planting methods and give them to the government's agricultural officials to promote trial planting.
This time, Su Yuejian didn't feel like she was at a loss. After all, if this thing could be promoted, maybe more people could live.
The third fire is to kill the old ministers!
First, Liu Yulin, an old minister of the previous dynasty, was defeated.
This person is a supporter of the Five Kings and is a thorn in Nangong Xu's side. His master has already been defeated, so why keep this servant around?
Nangong Xu asked Xuan Jingsi to fabricate charges against Chen Ming, but he was unwilling to go against his conscience because he was not as ruthless as the previous governor.
After his investigation and evidence collection, he found that there was indeed solid evidence of ill intentions, but throughout the process, he did his best to protect this man's family.
Since ancient times, "a new emperor appoints new ministers." When the birds are all gone, the bows are put away; when the rabbit is dead, the dogs are cooked.
Nangong Xu squeezed every last bit of money out of the concubines of the previous dynasty and tasted the sweetness.
Then I remembered that most of the so-called inner treasury were confiscated from other people's homes.
So isn't it normal to eliminate political enemies and confiscate their property?
Nangong Xu not only killed his previous political enemies, but also found a reason to kill the military generals and old ministers who followed him.
He wanted to prevent the group of meritorious officials who followed him from rebelling one day or supporting one of his future sons to seize his kingdom.
These iron-blooded measures also frightened the ministers in the court, and everyone felt insecure for a time.
Nangong Xu also came out of the depression caused by the theft in the inner treasury.
Because he soon amassed a considerable fortune.
......
After the new emperor ascended the throne, Nangong Li's mother was named Grand Empress Dowager.
She came to Cishou Palace to talk to the old empress dowager, "Greetings to the Grand Empress Dowager!"
"I'm an old man, but you still keep coming back. Tell me, you've been visiting me a lot lately, drinking tea with me today and appreciating flowers with me tomorrow, but is there something you can't just say?"
"Grand Empress Dowager, I won't hide it from you. I am just worried about my Li'er. He is already grown up, but no matter how I force him, he just doesn't want to marry a young girl. He says he doesn't like her!
You say, could this be some unusual hobby?
He has never been seen lingering around with women, nor has he ever been involved in anything with anyone. Even the concubines in the mansion were sent away a few years ago, and now there is not even a female mosquito to be found in the yard where he lives.
I don’t even have a girl, so it seems I won’t be able to have a grandson. What should I do? "
"Oh? He really does that?"
The Empress Dowager had heard of the Nangong family's good qualities. In fact, the first generation of the king had some good qualities.
The current Emperor Xu has no children yet.
The Nangong family has a thin bloodline, and everyone is like this. The Empress Dowager was speechless.
"I dare not hide it from the Empress Dowager. I am eager for the palace to grant him a marriage, and I would like to tie him to the young girl!
At worst, I can adopt one in the future, so that I can have a legitimate daughter-in-law, and avoid rumors from spreading outside that would hurt the reputation of the royal family."
"If he really does this, wouldn't he be ruining the woman's life?
Which noble lady family can swallow this loss?"
The Grand Empress Dowager stood up, took a few steps, and thought to herself that it was fortunate that the marriage to Princess Xin'an had not been officially decreed, otherwise her own niece would have been ruined.
"I haven't thought about this problem, but the royal family's reputation is a big deal. We can't let this useless person become the topic of conversation among the people in the capital.
I still want to ask for a marriage for him, and I want to lock us both up together!"
The Empress Dowager was a little impatient with this confused old woman, "Don't force the marriage. Since he has no intention, don't harm the innocent.
Children grow up and are no longer under the control of their mothers. We, as elders, must learn to let go. It’s getting late. I’m tired. You should go back too.”
As soon as the Grand Empress Dowager left Cishou Palace, her expression changed immediately.
This self-debasement will probably dissuade her from arranging a marriage.
As long as he can leave the capital safely and be with the one he loves, she is willing to stay in the capital as a hostage for them.
After all, it is safer to stay away from the political center of the capital, and have more power to protect themselves. There is no family affection in the royal family.
The Queen Mother sighed.
The old queen mother asked the new emperor to come to the dinner after the court session. During the meal, she mentioned, "It's good that your fourth uncle wants to give away a piece of land. He behaves a little absurdly, so it's a good thing for him to stay away from the capital.
However, his mother must stay in the capital according to the rules and cannot go to the fiefdom with him. You must be clear about this."
"Grandson understands, grandma, don't worry, I won't treat Uncle Wang unfairly, but I won't give him the chance to become big either!"
Nangong Xu appeared filial and respectful on the surface, but in his heart he actually hated the way his grandmother meddled in everything, as if he was still the crown prince.
He wanted to be an emperor with absolute power, not a puppet of an old woman.
After I have secured the position, it would be better to let her go and accompany father as soon as possible.
The old man who refuses to die is a thief, it is true!
Nangong Xu has been patient for more than 20 years. Under his gentle and honest appearance, he actually hides such a character and tactics. If the Empress Dowager knew about this, she would probably faint from fear.
