Chapter 263 (2/2)
Liu Chang smiled and said, ”Lord, we may have found treasure. Wu Liuzhi's performance today is amazing. He even subdued all the ministers at once. Now those guys treat him as a Ming Jun.”
Lord Xu said strangely, ”isn't it? Is there such a thing? Tell me in detail.”
When Liu Chang saw what he heard, he told the Lord one by one. Finally, he said, ”I have seen many princes, and the emperor has seen several. To be honest, now think about it, Wu Liuzhi has the most Mingjun atmosphere.”
Xu Guanzhu was surprised and said with a smile, ”he did well. Is that too exaggerated?”
Liu Changlao sighed, ”if I say so, you may not feel much. I'm at the scene. His aura is really convincing.”
Lord Xu touched his beard and said, ”it seems that he can perform very well. This is a good thing. As long as he doesn't make a big mistake, let him toss and see.”
Liu Changlao respectfully said, ”yes, Lord!”
The next day, the trumpets in Jianye city sounded together, and nine bells and drums were connected to announce the new emperor's accession to the throne.
Wu Qingde got the support of the Lord of Tianlong temple, convinced important officials and ascended the throne smoothly.
Sitting in the hall, Wu Qingde accepted the worship of civil and military officials. Wu Qingde looked calm and did not panic. Liu Changlao and other Taoists were fully convinced.
I'm afraid they can't be so calm when they sit on the Dragon chair.
After the minister danced and worshipped, Li Huaide Lang said, ”I was ordered by heaven to set an example for my subjects. At a time of national crisis, there are many extravagances in the palace. I announced that from now on, the expenses in the palace will be halved, and all the first imperial concubines will move to the mercy palace. All the palace maids who are over 20 will be released and marry by themselves.”
Considering his previous life, when the state of Zhou was emperor, there were too many women in the palace, so he came to harass himself when he had nothing to do, so he came up with this move. First, he took away the familiar women who were too young to bear loneliness.
The ministers listened and were happy. Anyway, the emperor was willing to do so, showing a posture of Ming Jun.
Some ministers stepped out and advised the emperor to take back his order.
Where would li Huaide listen.
The decree was drafted on the spot and issued for implementation.
The ministers had to give up and began to think about how to respond to the emperor's practice. The emperor took the lead in frugality. It's really unreasonable for a minister not to respond.
Li Huaide took several memorials and began to deal with them one by one.
He made such a quick decision that he could convince all his ministers.
After a series of government orders were issued, Li Huaide dismissed a group of treacherous ministers who had been important to the previous Emperor Wu, and used a group of courtiers who were widely famous in the government and the public. Under the command of Li Huaide, the Wu Dynasty hall began to operate with high efficiency.
The change of chaotang soon affected the front line.
Under the escort of Taoist tianlongguan, commander Yuchi arrived at the front line in less than a day and took over the post of commander. Under his command, although the front-line war was still losing, it began to stabilize quickly.
The princes were relieved by the emperor's amnesty and vowed never to investigate the previous crimes. Seeing the rapid changes of the court, they had to cheer up and obey the orders of the court. There has been a marked reduction in the number of cases in which Yang obeys while Yin disobeys.
The army became daring to fight a hard battle. After half a month, the front-line defense changed significantly. The Wu army no longer retreated and stuck to the defense line.
The rear support, under the control of Li Huaide, continued to arrive.
Seeing the change of the situation, Xu Guanzhu's confidence rose again. The minds of the princes were also changing. The original hesitation and even those who wanted to go to Vietnam secretly gave up the original idea. The people cheered, and the government and the public gradually formed a consensus. Wu Qingde is really a qualified emperor, a hundred times better than the original Wu Emperor. With him, we will not lose to the state of Yue.
Some civil servants can't wait to write an ode to the new emperor, praising him as a rare Ming king in the world. The state of Wu is about to enter the era of ZTE.
Li Huaide was unhappy. He found that the better he was, the more popular he was among the officials. The Taoists of Tianlong Temple actually watched him more closely. It turned out that there were only two Taoists staring at him all the time. Now it has increased to eight. Do you believe it?
Of course, there are still changes. The Taoists who had watched him showed disdain when they saw him, but now they all looked respectful.
