On the 21st day of the first lunar month, the grand court held a meeting.

Although the new emperor Qier had not held a formal throne ceremony, she was already the emperor of the legal Dashun Dynasty. At this time, Qier was sitting on the dragon throne, and a seat next to her was prepared for Liu Yu.

The first imperial edict issued by the great court was that the emperor Liu Yu was granted the title of King Lin and the regent of Jiugang. This means that from this day on, Liu Yu jumped from a powerful minister who intervened in the government and became half of the master of the world. Everything he did was within the scope of the statutory permission.

It took Liu Yu only two years to go from usurping power to usurping the country.

Then there was a reward for those who were commendable to pacify the Turks and assist the new emperor in the coup to ascend the throne. Hua Ji'an was granted the title of Yunyihou, Qi Fang was granted the title of Annehou, Huo Bing was granted the title of Yonghou, and Zhang Wuzhu was granted the title of Pingguhou. In addition to He Mao, who was previously named the title of marquis, this time the imperial court was granted the title of five marquis once, which was considered a history.

In addition to being a marquis, the order of military generals was also re-divided. Qi Fang was appointed as commander of the three armies by General Yunjin and promoted to general. The other four were still generals. At the same time, Liu Yu's wife Xu Xuanzhu was also appointed as general. The three generals of the country were Liu Yu, Xu Xuanzhu and Qi Fang. Feng Zhaoshu, originally the only official general in the Dashun Dynasty, participated in the rebellion of the second prince Su Dian, and was directly deprived of his military status and was waiting for the verdict.

The military generals basically controlled the army with Liu Yu's direct line. They were a little calmer in the civil officials. Many people had already received the news from Shangshu Academy in the morning. They had long known that Han Sheng and Lan Fu were dismissed from prime ministers, and they also knew that Liu Yu would replace Han Sheng and Lan Fu with Chai Jin and Sui Yu to become the owners of Shangshu Academy.

After hearing the imperial edict from the court, no ministers openly condemned the court's discussion. Those who were willing to condemn Liu Yu are now under house arrest in the mansion. Those who can attend court now know how to ignore foreign affairs. They listened to the imperial edict. However, they still felt a little disdainful of Chai Jin and Sui Yu. One was considered foolish by them, and the other was considered a little woman by them. They did not give any opinions. They also wanted to see how the matter ended. Many people were still worried and prepared to watch the jokes of Xinhuang and Liu Yu.

The grand court debate lasted for more than two hours, and there was basically nothing to mention except personnel arrangements. The court thought that Su Dian's rebellion left many official flaws. Liu Yu adhered to the principle of promoting the superiors from subordinates to level one level one. However, because there were too many people involved in some yamen, even if they were offered a five or six level, they could not find a candidate. Liu Yu simply made preparations in advance. As long as there were insufficient people at the yamen, they would directly streamline them, and only the main responsible departments of the six ministries were retained, and the others could be abolished as much as possible.

Once he was cut and withdrawn, Liu Yu finally realized that the yamen in Chang'an City was not short of people, but there were many more people who were just eating. Liu Yu's response was also very simple, and the assessment was conducted!

The court went from an official assessment every year to an official once every two months. The unqualified salary was temporarily retained at half a time, and the two consecutive assessments were directly removed. Six assessments a year plus one major assessment at the end of the year, as long as there were three failures, they were directly removed. The assessment department changed from the original Ministry of Personnel to "Shangshu Academy and the Ministry of Personnel", which once again improved the weakened prime minister's power. That is to say, although the officials below were disliked by Chai Jin and Sui Yu, they had to curry favor with them, so that they could pass the assessment and not be dismissed from office.

As for the Minister of Personnel, if nothing unexpected happens, the former Minister of Revenue Li Yannian was moved to the Minister of Personnel. Although Li Yannian and Liu Yu have not yet become formal relatives, the people in the court have long regarded them as family.

In the future, as long as Liu Yu sees who is unhappy, he can clear them through reasonable and legal means without being charged with cracking down on dissidents. The main reason is that Liu Yu has already controlled all the departments responsible for the assessment of officials. Officials are cleared, and others will only say that their ability does not meet the requirements of the court. Those who have already resented Liu Yu are hating Liu Yu's assessment of this trick. It really means killing people without blood. In the long run, the court will definitely clear all the dissidents of Liu Yu, and the world will become the world of Liu Yu's family, and the court will also become the court of Liu Yu's family.

The staff was arranged properly. The grand court meeting ended. Liu Yu first accompanied Qier back to the inner court, and he also wanted to leave the palace because in the original plan, Su Yan had to leave Chang'an City after attending Qier's throne ceremony to visit the vassal state. Su Yan set out on the 22nd day of the first lunar month, and Liu Yu went to see him off a day in advance.

At this time, the Ninth Prince's Mansion was a little lively. This time, Liu Yu not only planned to send Su Yan and his wife to the vassal states in Jiangnan, but also collected the palace maids and eunuchs ordered by Su Yan in the palace to send him. Of course, Su Yanna's concubines were also indispensable.

When Liu Yu arrived at the Ninth Prince's Mansion, the mansion was busy packing things, while Su Yan was wearing a thick fur coat, sitting alone in the yard, quietly staring blankly, allowing the guards and palace maids and eunuchs to walk back and forth by his side.

"You keep doing yours, don't come and salute."

Liu Yu walked forward, said to the guards and palace maids and eunuchs who saluted him, and then stood in front of Su Yan. Su Yan lowered his head and suddenly saw a pair of legs in front of him. Then he raised his head and looked at Liu Yu in front of him.

"What's wrong? I learned to pretend to be deep and don't plan to leave?" Liu Yu stretched out his hand to pull him up, but Su Yan didn't appreciate it this time.

"Master, I actually want to ask you, if I walked with the Second Emperor yesterday, would you kill me?"

Su Yan asked very carefully, but in fact it was very general. He just said "walking together". In fact, the idea of ​​Su Dian's desire to ascend the throne as emperor, how could the former emperor Su Yan walk together? This assumption itself is not true. If Su Dian really rebelled for the orthodox tradition of the royal family, then he would not try to ascend the throne by himself. It would be more convincing to directly assist Su Yan and would also receive more support from more people in the court.

After all, the emperor has done a good job in the past two years in power. At least the ministers who have opinions about Su Yan were basically suppressed by Yuan Bolang and Su Bi.

"What do you think?"

Liu Yu's answer was ambiguous. Since the question was not valid, there was no need for Liu Yu to answer.

Su Yan nodded and said, "I will definitely figure it out in the future."

Liu Yu smiled. It seemed that Su Yan didn't have to be an emperor, nor was he as wild as before, and just wanted to play, so he began to reflect on his life. This is probably the only "serious thing" that Su Yan thought he could do. Liu Yu thought that if Su Yan had been born for hundreds of years, and was kicked off the stage after becoming an emperor, he would only write a memoir, "Two Years of Emperor" and "Two and Three Affairs of Marquis of Wuyi" in the next life, he would definitely be very popular. Unfortunately, people are busy these days, and no one will be sublimated to the spiritual height that Liu Yu thought, and no one would care about these reading materials that were not nutritious and could not grow meat.

"Has the historian come to see you in the past two days?" Liu Yu asked.

"Yeah. Several groups of people."

"If you are alive, you won't be the emperor. Don't blame yourself for being a teacher. Live well in the future and strive to live longer than your master. If you are a teacher, you won't be alive and see a day when you have a posthumous title for you."

Su Yan laughed twice. It was rare that he did not feel too sorry for not being the emperor. Su Yan was reluctant to let go, but what he couldn't bear to let go was not the throne, but the Chang'an City. He went from the emperor's legitimate son to the future little prince, to a gangster who was wandering on the streets and everyone shouted to beat him, then rose against the trend and became an emperor, pacifying the world and achieving unparalleled achievements, and then fell back to an ordinary prince. Chang'an City witnessed the ups and downs of Su Yan's life. He was reluctant to leave here, nor could he bear to leave the bustling and prosperous Chang'an City.

"Master, I will definitely live longer than you." Su Yan suddenly said, and after a long time, he added, "Because Master, you are a person who does big things, you think too much and are too tired. I don't think about anything. After eating, sleeping, and playing, you are in a good mood and live longer. Master, don't you?"

Liu Yu didn't say anything. In fact, what Su Yan said was exactly what Liu Yu didn't want to think about.

The life that Liu Yu yearns for is not just a waste of time, sleep, and play, but he entered the officialdom and unknowingly usurped the country and could not turn back. If the master and apprentice were still as unfair as before, let Su Yan be his emperor and let Liu Yu live quietly, that would be great. In fact, Liu Yu also thought that if he had not tampered with the will and made Su Zhe the emperor, he could also live leisurely and leisurely.

"It's all your fault that you and I were so idle that I had to show off by the Kuishui River."

Liu Yu said something thoughtfully, Su Yan seemed a little confused, and he couldn't understand what Liu Yu meant.

In fact, what Liu Yu said was that if Liu Yu had honestly escorted Su Yan to Wanzhou City at that time, no mistake would have been a merit, and he would have been able to take a small vassal state and would not have to starve to death in the future. Liu Yu could continue to marry Xu Xuanzhu. The two of them and the Han sisters lived freely, so they would not have to look back on their lives like today. Of course, Liu Yu also looked at the problem dialectically. If they had not appeared in the battle of Kuishui River, Xu Xuanzhu's female army might have been destroyed long ago, and he would not have married Xu Xuanzhu, and the situation in the world would have changed. Perhaps to this day, the north north of the Central Plains River had fallen into the hands of the Turks. In a few years, the Turks might have become the Mongols in another world.

"If I hadn't been me, what would the world develop like?"

Liu Yu advised Su Yan not to worry. In the end, he sat down and looked at the sky, and he became confused.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Su Yan looked at Liu Yu curiously and asked.

"Oh, it's okay. Just sit down and rest. You're leaving tomorrow. Before leaving, you have any unfinished thoughts. Tell me out and help you complete them."

Su Yan hesitated for a long time before finally begging: "Master, I just want to ask Xiaoyu to have a bigger belly day by day, and the journey is long and farther... Can she stay in Chang'an City for the time being and wait until she gives birth before leaving? I'm afraid that her body will not be able to bear the bumps along the way."

Liu Yu almost said, "You stay for the time being and don't leave." But Liu Yu didn't say that. He knew that it would take another reason to send you thousands of miles. Su Yan had almost tampered with the first half of his life. Su Yan had to go on the road in the future by himself. This is also Su Yan's fate.
