With Taichang's shout, the banquet began, and the ministers who were chatting returned to their positions, rectified their clothes, stood up straight, waiting for the emperor and the queen to attend.
Many people are attending such occasions for the first time, especially those women who come with their husbands, who are so nervous that they dare not breathe.
Yang Biao's eyes were a little moist and his nose was even more sour.
More than ten years have passed. Since being forced to move westward, the court has not held such a ceremony. As soon as we are in peace today, etiquette matters should be put on the agenda.
Although the New Year's Eve meeting is lively today, there are many things that are not in line with etiquette. We will find an opportunity to advise the emperor in the future.
Thinking of this, Yang Biao couldn't help but think of Xun Yu.
One of Xun Yu's intentions was to discuss etiquette, and he didn't know how he was talking to the emperor.
After a while, Xun Wenqian led the way with the drums and music, Zhen Mi and the Qiao sisters walked out, stopped on the east side, and turned to the door.
Ma Yunlu, Lu Xiaohuan and two beauties followed closely behind, stood on the west side, and also turned around and looked at the door.
When Yang Biao and others saw it, they couldn't help but smile knowingly.
These nobles and beauties are related to both the East and the West. At least in the Emperor's harem, Kanto and Kanto have achieved harmonious coexistence. The queen was born into a Confucian family and was in line with the hope of the Confucian family.
It can be seen from this that although the emperor has introduced many new policies, there are many details that are not very particular, and he is still careful in the fundamental issues.
At this time, Liu Xie took Fu Shou's hand and walked out slowly.
Taichang shouted loudly. "Emperor, the Empress arrives, and the ministers greet each other-"
Zhang Ji, the general of the cavalry who stood in front of the ministers, immediately bowed down and said loudly: "I would like to congratulate His Majesty the Emperor, and His Highness, long live the Queen!"
He was a little nervous and his voice was trembling, making it hard to imagine that he was once a brave and good warrior in Xiliang.
In contrast, Zou's family around him was more calm.
The ministers followed Zhang Ji, bowed and shouted in unison.
"I wish to congratulate His Majesty the Emperor, long live the Queen, long live, long live!"
"All the ministers are flat." Liu Xie slightly pointed his head, stretched out his hands, and acted as a false support, and his majestic gaze swept over the ministers.
Queen Fu Shou nodded with a smile, her gentle eyes swept across everyone's faces, making everyone feel that the emperor and the queen saw them.
After the ceremony, everyone sat down.
Liu Xie said a few words of scenes, then signaled Taichang to carry out the next procedure.
Taichang shouted again: "Minister reports to you!"
The Grand Marshal Jia Xu stood up to report on the military situation this year, with the focus on military reform.
In addition to Jiaozhou and southern Yizhou, other states have basically been pacified, and the generals of various departments have gradually shifted from wartime to normal guarding. This year, the recruitment system was reformed, the conscription system and the autumn and winter scrutiny system were restored, and the system of autumn and winter reading was retained.
The advantages of the recruiting system were achieved, and elite troops were selected from the conscripts to form standing soldiers.
From then on, the conscripts received basic military training and undertake local security tasks. They basically did not have to leave the county, or even completed their service in the county. After three years of service, they could return to their own business, and a one-month training camp was held every three years.
Can.
The standing troops are separated from production, and they focus on training in daily life, protect the capital and main strategic locations, and are responsible for the main combat tasks during wartime...
This system has just been implemented and is still in the trial stage. The first target of the trial is more than 20,000 people under General Zhang Ji. These people have been diverted, and about 3,000 elite soldiers remain in office and have been added to the standing troops.
More than a thousand people were arranged to serve as county lieutenants, county lieutenants, pavilion chiefs and other positions, assisting local governments in managing military affairs and maintaining local public security.
The remaining more than 16,000 people were dismissed and land was allocated. From then on, they were discharged and returned to the fields to farm with peace of mind.
Considering that Liangzhou has a small land area, more than half of them were arranged in Guanzhong and Guandong, and less than 30% of them actually returned to Liangzhou.
Of these 20,000 people, more than 300 have military achievements, but they are not suitable for senior military positions. According to the latest system, corresponding military merit titles are awarded and the army remains as instructors.
Positions like this teach their combat experience to recruits, but they assume management functions.
After Jia Xu finished reporting, Liu Xie commented a few times, especially expressing his gratitude to General Zhang Ji, the Cavalry.
Without Zhang Ji's cooperation, it would not be easy to dissolve the 20,000 Xiliang soldiers successfully.
Although Zhang Ji felt bitter, his face was full of smiles. As the leader of the ministers and above the Three Dukes in such an occasion, he was able to whitewash his compass and never worry about the emperor settled the score in the future.
Zhang Ji stood up, thanked the emperor, and expressed passionately that this was what the minister should do.
The other ministers were also very happy to hear this.
With the example of Zhang Ji, the military power of other Western Liang generals will be learned from the future, and Dong Zhuo's influence will gradually be eliminated.
Although Dong Zhuo has been dead for nearly ten years, his influence has not been eliminated.
After the Taiwei, the Situ Mansion began to report on the situation.
The first thing is the situation of each county’s plan this year.
With the recovery of Yizhou, the military pressure in the southwest was greatly reduced. Thanks to Zhang Ji and Shi Sun Rui's attack on Yizhou last year, Dutian, Ba County, Guanghan and other counties caught up with spring plowing, so Yizhou this year
The harvest was particularly gratifying and played a positive role in alleviating the court's finances.
Secondly, the harvest of Jingzhou counties this year is also very good. Among them, the commercial tax in Nanyang county doubled compared with last year. Wancheng jumped over Chang'an, Handan and Anyi, becoming the largest market with the highest tax revenue.
Jizhou continues to make rapid progress this year. Although the increase is not as good as Jingzhou, the absolute value is not low.
Yan and Yu are closely behind, with a gratifying momentum and a very obvious momentum to catch up.
Qingxu and the other prefectures are also recovering, but the population loss is too large and no obvious effect has been seen yet.
At the end, Yang Biao criticized Liangzhou.
Liangzhou's development in the past two years has been poor, and both its growth rate and actual size are no longer as good as before. If the commercial tax is separated, the development of Liangzhou has stagnated just in terms of local agriculture and animal husbandry.
After Yang Biao finished speaking, he looked back at Yang Xiu with a stern expression.
Everyone was stunned.
The Hongnong Yang family is really selfless. If Yang Biao wants to establish his authority, he will first attack his own son.
Everyone's feelings were not over yet, and Yang Xiu left the list. "Your Majesty, I dare to speak out and reply to Situ's criticism."
Liu Xie nodded. "Say."
Yang Xiu bowed again, then turned to Yang Biao and bowed to salute. "Situ, Xiu thought the court was unfair to Liangzhou."
Everyone was stunned.
Although the scene of the father-son dispute between the father and son is good, it is not easy to see this. Yang Biao was just dissatisfied with the knowledge of Liangzhou and did not criticize Yang Xiu himself by name. Yang Xiu was a son, but he bluntly expressed his opposition to Situ's opinion.
, this was really unexpected.
In an instant, many people became energetic. Even Chen Qun, who was huddled in the corner and did not dare to say anything, straightened his body and listened intently.
Yang Biao raised his gray eyebrows lightly, and he reached out his hand calmly, signaling Mrs. Yuan not to speak.
This is the court, and they are not only father and son, but also the superiors and subordinates of Situ and the county magistrate. It is normal to argue.
"Prince, please speak."
