All the people answer the question: an exam, the emperors all cried

Chapter 67 Diligence and Thrift!

Thinking of this, these emperors all expressed their incomprehension of Yang Jian's approach. For them, this was undoubtedly suffering in a different way. Then what would you do as an emperor? It's better to be a commoner.

The most incomprehensible in the examination room is King Zhou of Shang and Emperor Ling of Han Liu Hong. They are very good at enjoying life. Think about King Zhou’s wine pool and meat forest, and think about Liu Hong’s full harem. Both of them are playing in different ways. Therefore, as an emperor with supreme power and status, why should he be diligent and thrifty, and it is not because he has no money? This is what they do not understand.

But there are also people who admire Yang Jian's actions, that is, those emperors who have the same ideas as Sui Gaozu and want to govern the country well. They all said that Yang Jian's actions are remarkable and can be emulated. Can I be thrifty like this?

After listening to Ye Chen's words, Yang Jian had a calm expression on his face. This is his own temperament. Although he was praised by Ye Chen, he still didn't reveal it on his face, but he was still happy in his heart.

On the other hand, the emperors of the Yang Group were all smiling, all with proud smiles on their faces. This is their ancestor. It is very happy to have such a great achievement and be praised by the examiner.

"I didn't expect that there is such a thrifty emperor. I really admire him. Anyway, I can't do it. I want to kneel down to him, man of God."

"I think the same way. I feel that I'm already very frugal. I'm not as ridiculous as the examiner said about Emperor Liu Hong just now, but I still can't compare with Sui Gaozu."

"Forget it, your frugality can't stand on the table in front of others, so just rest."

"Hey, I can't stand on the stage, and you are no better. At least I am more frugal than you. Believe it or not, let's make a bet. When the examiner talks about us, we will compare and contrast. Do you dare?"

"Compare, who is afraid of whom? I still can't afford to lose. It's funny."

The emperors of the two Wu dynasties fought red-faced.

When Yang Jian heard what the two said, he couldn't help but find it funny, and the corners of his mouth slightly pulled away.

Ye Chen above the examination room also heard the conversation between the two, and he also found it funny, extremely childish, is this the so-called Nine-Five Supreme?
Shaking his head, he continued.

"Finally, Yang Jian adopted a policy of military defense and political appeasement for the surrounding ethnic groups, which effectively dealt with ethnic conflicts. He was honored as the saint Khan by the northern minorities. It is vast, with a population of more than seven million households. It is enough to see that Yang Jian is still remarkable in governing the country."

Ye Chen's last words undoubtedly gave Yang Jian the greatest affirmation, and finally the smile on his face could not help but emerge, and the Sui Group also rejoiced.

The video then began to play the next Sui Dynasty emperor, Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang.

Ye Chen also explained Yang Guang's achievements along with the video.

Then, the third emperor of the Sui Dynasty was mentioned, but the last scene stayed until the end of the Sui Dynasty.

All the emperors were shocked. It wasn’t that Yang Jian, as the founding emperor, managed very well at the beginning. How come there were only three emperors of the Sui Dynasty, and the Sui Dynasty perished? Head, but did not go very long.

So no matter how well Yang Jian governed the country as the founding emperor, he couldn't live long alone. In the end, the Sui Dynasty perished and the Tang Dynasty ushered in.

The three emperors of the Sui Dynasty were bitter in their hearts, and they couldn't express their bitterness, especially Yang You, the last emperor of the Sui Dynasty.

At this time, Yang You felt very uncomfortable. His ancestor's meritorious service was so high, but it turned out to be a disastrous decline in his hands. At that time, he was the emperor in name, but in fact he was just a puppet supported by Li Yuan. Later, his grandfather Sui Yangdi Yang Guang died in the Jiangdu Change. After the news came, Li Yuan felt that he was useless, so he forced him to abdicate and let him live in Chang'an.

Thinking of this, Yang You felt that he was very useless, sorry for his childhood intelligence, but when he grew up, he was controlled by others and lost his family's foundation in the Sui Dynasty. He was really speechless in the face of his grandfather and ancestors.

When Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty saw his grandson sitting there with a gloomy face, he knew that he must be guilty. He had taken a fancy to Yang You since he was a child. There will be good development in the future, but he didn't expect that after Li Yuan's death, since Li Yuan forced his grandson to abdicate, if he had known earlier that this person would have such thoughts, he should not have kept it.

Yang Jian also sighed, this cannot be entirely blamed on Yang You, time is fate, there is no way to do this, if given another chance, I believe they will definitely make the Sui Dynasty bigger and stronger.

And watching the demise of the Sui Dynasty in the video, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan felt a burst of pride, and it was because of him that the Tang Dynasty survived.

The scene in the video slowly turns to the scene during Li Yuan's reign in the Tang Dynasty.

Seeing this, Ye Chen began to explain again.

"Li Yuan made some achievements during his administration. In politics, Li Yuan inherited and innovated the bureaucratic system of the Sui Dynasty. He established three provinces, six departments and 24 departments to strengthen the centralization system. He detailed the responsibilities of officials at all levels. It is convenient to examine and evaluate the performance of officials."

"In terms of taxation, reforms have also been made again. Although the land equalization system and rent adjustment have been inherited, Li Yuan has relaxed the conditions for buying and selling land. In this way, the people are encouraged to be proactive.

"At the same time, he also made a clear distinction between the aristocratic class and the land ownership of officials. These practices have stimulated the production enthusiasm of the people and are more conducive to the people's agricultural production activities."

"Furthermore, Li Yuan admired Confucianism. After he ascended the throne, he stipulated that Confucian classic textbooks should become an important content of teaching. In terms of selecting talents, he followed and improved the selection system, which laid the foundation for the formation and improvement of the imperial examination system."

"After Li Yuan proclaimed himself emperor, he dispatched three brothers, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Yuanji, to eliminate local separatist forces and make efforts to expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and finally unified the world through their efforts."

After Ye Chen finished the introduction in one breath, the emperors of the Sui Dynasty all looked at Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, especially Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, looked at Li Yuan with hatred. In fact, the two of them were cousins. He actually planned to take the throne of his Yang family, fortunately he still regarded him as a brother, he really did not expect such a wolfish ambition.

Li Yuan didn't seem to see Yang Guang's gaze, but was immersed in Ye Chen's explanation to him just now, with a sense of superiority
