The sound of horse hooves in Chang'an City all night made the people know that something big happened.

After the curfew the next day, the gates and gates of the city gates were still not opened, and martial law continued. The soldiers of the guards patrolled the streets with full arms, ordering those who dared to open the doors or windows to peek at them to hide at home honestly and not go out. This situation further confirmed the people with various speculations. However, no one could guess what happened in the city.

I don’t know what happened and I don’t let go out, so many people are panicked. Especially those who urgently need to go out to buy food, rice, oil and salt are even more anxious, but they dare not go out privately. Fortunately, at noon the third day of the incident, the people were allowed to go out, and the east and west cities were reopened, and the main gates in Chang'an City were also opened, but the inspection became very strict.

The government also issued a notice saying that King Yong Li Lin rebelled and the court was pursuing the matter.

The martial law was not completely lifted. There were many soldiers patrolling the streets, and people were often arrested, which made some timid people escape back to their homes and dared not run around. But soon, the people in the market knew what was going on.

King Yong Li Lin raised an army to rebel, rushed into the palace and killed the emperor, trying to seize the throne. However, Li Lin's rebellion was eventually extinguished by the emperor's son, Li Xi, the king of Zhong, who had just claimed it, Yang Xi, who was originally famous for pardon.

Not long ago, Yang Xi became the emperor's biological son and was renamed Queen Zhong. The people in the public were surprised and talked about this matter again. Now, when Yang Xi became the emperor's son, it was still the main story, such a drastic change suddenly occurred. The son of the late emperor, Prince Yong, Li Lin, actually rebelled and wanted to seize the throne, and almost succeeded. Even Emperor Li Yan was killed by him. Fortunately, Prince Zhong Yang Xi led his army to serve the king, successfully suppressed Li Lin's rebellion, controlled the situation, and avoided the Tang Dynasty's chaos.

Those who know this believe that Yang Xi will definitely ascend the throne and become the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty. This is also what they expect. If Yang Xi ascends the throne, the people in the market all believe that this new emperor will definitely bring them more glory. The national strength will continue to increase greatly. The people will become richer, and the territory of the Tang Dynasty will also be further expanded. Yang Xi is synonymous with heroes. In the past, many parents who long for their sons to achieve success and hope that their sons will become successful all encouraged their sons with the behavior of Yang Xi's heroic youth. Now Yang Xi will ascend the throne, and ascend the throne after being famous. These parents who used Yang Xi's affairs to inspire their sons are of course sincerely supported.

Li Yan has never had a reputation. Even though he led the army in the battle to combat the rebellion, the people in the public knew that it was Yang Xi's contribution, and Li Yan was just named and did not actually command the war. In addition, he did not achieve any achievements during his tenure as the prince, and the people of Chang'an had no good feelings for him. It can be said that Li Yan's life and death were a bit irrelevant to them.

It’s just that Li Yan is the emperor, and the emperor was killed. It’s always surprising and worried about chaos in the world.

But in surprise, they still had expectations, hoping that after Yang Xi became emperor, they would become richer.

Of course, the minds of all officials are different from those of the people. Whether it is the people of Chang'an City or from other places, anyone who has heard of Yang Xi's reputation is willing to see this super hero become the emperor.

However, many ministers in the court completely disagreed with Yang Xi's succession to the throne. When the palace changed that day, some ministers did not dare to object, but later, Yang Xi presided over the court meeting as a regent prince, discussed the court affairs with the ministers, and discussed the posthumous gifts and temple names to Li Yan, Gao Shi and Li Mi proposed again that Yang Xi should succeed to the throne immediately and take charge of the court affairs as an emperor, and some people stood up to object.

Li Mi and Gao Shi were on the grounds that the country could not be without a monarch for a day, and the Tang Dynasty had to have a new emperor in charge of the court, so they asked Yang Xi not to refuse and immediately ascend the throne. When they were in charge of all matters, several ministers stood up to oppose it.

These ministers all suggested that other princes succeed to the throne because Yang Xi’s special status, but were Li Yan’s illegitimate son, and were not suitable for ascension to the throne. However, those who made such opinions were ministers with low positions, and none of the people with high positions and power came forward to express this. In the end, the opinions of these people were refuted by Li Mi, Gao Shi, Cen Shen and others, and no one stood up to object.

After pretending to refuse for a while, Yang Xi happily accepted it and officially announced his ascension to the throne and amnesty the world.

Yang Xi officially moved into the cleaned Daming Palace and became the owner of the greatest palace in Chinese history.

He chose Chang'an Palace as his bedroom to live in by himself and Guo Xin.

After Yang Xi ascended the throne, he immediately announced that Guo Xin was appointed as the queen.

As an emperor, in addition to the queen, there are many concubines who want to be enthroned, and all three palaces and six courtyards must be established. However, Yang Xi only has one or two concubines now, which is far from the realm of three thousand beauties in the palace, but these must be found in the future, but it is not now.

After Yang Xi ascended the throne, he immediately announced that the titles of various officials would be changed back to Zhenguan times, and he also changed his position to some officials: Guo Ziyi was the Shangshu Ling, Fang Guan was the Shangshu Ling, Wei Jiansu was the Shangshu Ling, Li Mi was the Zhongshu Ling, Yan Zhenqing was the Shizhong, Gao Shi was the Zhongshu Ling, Zhang Hao was the Zhongshu Ling, Li Guangbi was the Shangshu Ling, and Li Lin was the Shangshu Ling, and these people were all in the Political Affairs Hall.

Cui Yuan was appointed as the Minister of Revenue, Miao Jinqing was appointed as the Minister of Works, Yuan Zai was appointed as the Minister of Rites, Pei Zunqing was appointed as the Minister of Works. Yang Xi's eldest brother Yang Xuan and a minister named Li Kui were the Minister of the Secretariat, Di Qi, and Li Xian was the Minister of the Huangmen.

The left and right Longwu Guards were ordered to guard the Daming Palace, Pang Zhong was the general of the left Longwu Guard, and Hun Shizhi was the general of the right Longwu Guard. Wang Sili was the general of the left and right Yulin Army, and Pugu Huaien was the general of the right Yulin Army. Hun Jian and Guo Xi were the general of the left and right Jinwu Guards respectively. The other guard generals also entrusted their trusted military generals to command the commander. This was the foundation for maintaining their own rule. He did not want to be driven out of power by force.

It can be said that when Li Yan was emperor, most officials remained in office, but their positions had changed. Yang Xi did not want to cause drastic changes in the court when he had just ascended the throne, and that would lead to continuous turmoil. If he didn't like any minister, or felt that this person was not suitable for responsibilities in the court, he could find an opportunity to demote him in the future.

Of course, Yang Xi would appoint many confidants in the court, but those who were not his confidants would still be retained as long as they had outstanding abilities and noble character, even if these people had prejudices against him.

Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, was his role model. He wanted a humble king, which would do better than any emperor in history, whether in terms of civil and military affairs. In the future, he would consolidate the mutual restraint and appointment of the three provinces and three ministries again, and further improve it, adding up some more democratic means in later generations. Although he became the emperor, he did not want the imperial power to be completely unrestrained.

Absolute power will inevitably be absolutely corrupt. He does not want him to be like Li Shimin, his family and country are in a mess, and the court will be in chaos. The system must be established and further improved. To a certain extent, the rule of man is turned into rule of law. Although all this is very difficult, Yang Xi feels that he will spend his whole life doing it.

The reforms in the direction of the court and military system will definitely continue and there will be fundamental changes. Yang Xi feels that he can do it.

Yang Xi’s promise to Yang Yuhuan has also begun to fulfill his promise.

After Li Longji passed away, Yang Xi suggested to Li Yan that Yang Yuhuan was posthumously granted Yang Yuhuan as the empress, respect him as the empress dowager, but not to be allowed by Li Yan. After Yang Xi became emperor, he also made all this a reality, respected him as the empress dowager, officially treated Yang Yuhuan as Li Longji's empress, and asked her to continue living in Xingqing Palace. After Li Yan's funeral was over, he would go to the peace every day. Yang Yuhuan was quite satisfied with Yang Xi's arrangement. She didn't have much expectations, and just hoped that in the future, Yang Xi could visit her and accompany her.

Lady Guo State had nothing to give to him, only some gifts and gifts on her fief.

Mrs. Guo was also quite satisfied with this. Her requirements for Yang Xi were like Yang Yuhuan, hoping that Yang Xi would visit her frequently. However, her wish was much harder than Yang Yuhuan's wish. Yang Xi, who became emperor, naturally could not leave the palace often.

To temporarily stabilize the affairs of the court, Li Yan's funeral is imminent.

After discussing with the court officials, Yang Xi issued an edict, posthumously named Li Yan as the great sage of civilized martial arts and morality, with the temple name Suzong, and held a very grand funeral for Li Yan and buried him in Jianling.

In history, after the death of the emperor, Li Heng, the temple name was Suzong. When discussing Li Yan's temple name with the court officials, Yang Xi naturally thought of the temple name that should have belonged to Li Heng. The ministers also agreed with Yang Xi's proposal, so Li Yan's temple name would be "Suzong of Tang".

After Li Longji passed away, Yang Xi did not participate in the discussion of the temple name, but in the end, Li Longji's temple name was still "Zheng Xuanzong of Tang", which was the same as in history, which surprised Yang Xiting.

Li Yan's posthumous gift and temple name have been settled, and the funeral is also being held. Yang Xi used his son's body to mourn Li Yan for three months. During these three months, the court affairs will be held by the prime ministers of the Political Affairs Hall.

Li Lin's rebellion case was quickly reviewed, and most of the people who were involved in this case were basically arrested.

Soon the court issued an accident in handling the Li Lin case, and killed Li Lin for the crime of rebellion. Li Lin's sons who participated in the rebellion, Li Yan and others were also killed. In addition to these people, only two Left Yulin Army Generals Liang Cheng and Li Bao, who commanded the imperial guards to enter the palace, were beheaded. Most of the other servants were exiled or demoted. Li Lin and his adult sons were killed, and the power of Li Lin's group was also destroyed and could no longer become a climate. Those servants would be given leniency and would not be a problem.

Yang Xi also knew that the end of filial piety for Li Yu was the time for him to show his skills and completely change the Tang Dynasty. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
