A little emperor jumped into the river

([-]) Xiuren

At Yinshi, the sky was bright now, and the surroundings were still gray, so all civil and military officials stood outside Suzaku's gate one after another.

He is used to waking up early, not to mention smelling chickens dancing, but he will get out of bed and wash when the time comes every day.Although the previous court only had morning court every five days, this court has a morning court every day, but after a good night's sleep, he rarely got up late today.

Sitting up from the bed, he saw the person who was still lying beside him unexpectedly. He thought that the person would leave alone at night like last time.

—Maybe I'm tired.

He was thinking like this, but saw the other party turned sideways, those eyes that couldn't see clearly the emotion were open without sleepiness, and they just looked at him calmly.Then I suddenly understood something, so that I felt a little depressed.

He said in a bad tone, "Uncle Huang didn't like me so much, so he didn't sleep all night."

After saying this sentence, he suddenly regretted it again, and felt that he had fallen asleep, so that he could say such a thing the next day.He remembered the reason why the other party stayed yesterday, and his heart softened a little, so he immediately remedied, "In this case, the emperor will skip the morning court today, and go back to the mansion to rest for a few days, how about it?"

"Is this what His Majesty wants?"

There was no answer, and all the regent gave him was such an indifferent sentence.

He was choked there, although he felt that he was wrong, but he was not willing to give in now, so he said, "What I want is naturally more than that."

Putting this sentence aside, he stopped entangled with others, finished tidying up, flicked his long sleeves and went up.

This is an extremely cold chair, resplendent and lifeless, but it is the highest position in the hall.Sitting here, you can see the ministers below wearing court uniforms, standing in two long rows.

He knew that although the courtiers below all had obedience written on their faces, they had different plans in their hearts.

While promoting cruel officials, drastic reforms were carried out, and at the same time, imperial examinations were promoted, bookstores were established, and the monopoly of aristocratic families was broken.

He carefully plans, strives to be safe, and refuses to make rash advances even if it takes time. For the losers, they will not ransack their homes and exterminate their families if they can make money first.Being in power at a young age, with a heavy army in his hand, he can kill at will with this, but he is still cautious, which makes the court change smoothly without any mistakes.

He just sat here day after day, stripping away the hidden pursuits between the lines, handling the affairs repeatedly, and fiddled with the intertwined interests and relationships according to his own mind.

In fact, he really hates compromise, and he doesn't like to show affection. It is the most pleasing way to replace all the corrupt officials and ambitious officials and thieves with a group of cruel officials.Even if the current reforms can inject new blood into the court, if no other method is found, within 30 years, the situation will be repeated again.

But he can't do that.

Possibly, he could never do this in his life.

"Now that the new law has been implemented, there is no threat of barbarians outside, and there are clean and honest officials inside. Therefore, in the next three years, [-]% of the land tax will be reduced or exempted."

Such reductions and exemptions will only benefit the most officials who keep supporting the royal family, and those rich clans who flaunt benevolence, righteousness and morality.

Even if what he wants is not only that.

However, for the time being, that's all he can do.
