Will he be sent out with some money and silk like those women before he returns to Beijing, or will he find a peddler and marry him? Thinking of this, Li felt even more worried. Fortunately, Huang Qiong immediately comforted both women after learning that they were pregnant. Although Qin's attitude was still a little hesitant, Li was finally relieved.
Now, although Huang Qiong has to deal with the problems in Shaanxi and Longyou Road every day, he also has to take care of matters in the capital. But in fact, every day is much more leisurely than when he was in power in the capital. After the rebellion in Ningxia was put down, Huang Qiong's thunderous tactics against the party members made the tribes around Longyou and Shaanxi, whether they were Tubo, Uighur, or other tribes, become much more honest.
At the beginning of December, Huang Qiong's father finally nodded in agreement regarding the treatment of the Tubo and Dangxiang tribes. Huang Qiong was also ordered to receive the Tibetan tribe leaders and Tibetan eminent monks on the spot in Chang'an. As for the title given to the eminent monk, the old man asked Huang Qiong to decide it by himself. In addition, the old man was very dissatisfied with Huang Qiong's refusal to move into Tai Chi Palace. What was he afraid of reprimanding in the imperial edict?
Finally, let him roll into the Taiji Palace happily, and stop squatting in the Jiedushi Palace to embarrass him. You are now the crown prince of a great country, and you don't have to live in the two main palaces in Xijing and countless royal pavilions. He had to stay in the Jiedushi Mansion, so He Yuanfeng, who was temporarily acting as Shaanxi Jiedushi, had to squeeze in the Jiedushi Yamen all day long. This makes the old man lose face as the king of a country.
In fact, even if Huang Qiong moved into Taiji Palace in accordance with the imperial edict, he could only live in the East Palace of Taiji Palace according to customization. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, this place had always been the place where the prince lived and handled government affairs. Once upon a time, there were former prince Yang Yong and later prince Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. In the former Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Zhi, and Li Xian all lived in the East Palace when they were princes, instead of moving directly into Taiji Palace.
Even the former prince, his eldest brother, whenever he came to Xijing to pay homage to the mausoleum, most of them lived in a garden built on the ruins of Xingqing Palace, which was not a large one. Instead of living in Tai Chi Palace and Daming Palace. During this period, only for the first two or three years, he lived in the East Palace of Taiji Palace. Later I moved out for unknown reasons.
In the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Xingqing Palace was destroyed and turned into a small garden. After the overhaul was completed, even the East Palace no longer lived there. The old man changed the East Palace into a place where he listened to political affairs daily during his stay in Xijing. Of course, Huang Qiong also guessed that the former prince did not live in the East Palace. Among them, there was also a former prince who liked masculinity. In order to cover up others' eyes, he wanted to avoid being discovered by the old man and wanted to move out.
But when it was his turn, he didn't say hello at first, and then he was suddenly attacked. He actually registered himself as the new crown prince at the mausoleum ceremony. Later, without even saying hello to him in advance, he asked himself to break the convention and move directly into Tai Chi Palace. He also designated the Manna Hall in Tai Chi Palace as his sleeping quarters while living in Tai Chi Palace, and Liang Yi Hall as the place where he handles government affairs.
Huang Qiong, who received the old man's imperial edict, thought about it for a long time but could not figure out what the old man meant. But one thing, he was now certain that the old man was definitely not testing him by letting him move into Tai Chi Palace. Could it be to enhance his own momentum, but it doesn't seem like it. However, although he had never understood what the old man meant, Huang Qiong did not dare to disobey the imperial edict this time.
On the third day after receiving the imperial edict, he obediently moved into Tai Chi Palace with the girls around him. It wasn't until he moved into Tai Chi Palace that he learned that Ganlu Palace had always been the old man's dormitory when he came to Xijing and lived in Tai Chi Palace. After learning the news, Huang Qiong understood why the old man had to go directly across the East Palace and move into the Tai Chi Palace, which he used to serve as the main palace, with good intentions when he came to Chang'an.
Although the old man has already announced to the world in disguise, he has appointed himself as the new crown prince. But in his heart, he was still a little uneasy about whether his origin would cause any reaction from the clan. He was testing the reaction of the clans in the world to appointing him as the crown prince. Huang Qiong still knows why the old man, who has always been fastidious about being arbitrary, cares about the clan's reaction at this time.
The old man has always believed that this clan is the foundation of the world. Although he didn't care too much about the clan's reaction, the old man still had some concerns. In Beijing, there were some things that were difficult for the old man to do, but when he arrived at the capital of Chang'an, he could completely let go. Although Xijing is also the capital, in any case it is only the capital now. The palace in Xijing is not the main palace of Da Qi Dynasty now.
Regardless of the status of Xijing or the status of the palaces in Xijing, its influence is far less than that of Jingzhao. What's more, when the old man came to Xijing in the past, he always stayed in Taiji Palace instead of Daming Palace. But when other previous emperors of this dynasty came to Xijing, they usually stayed in the Daming Palace. Since its construction was completed during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the former Tang Dynasty, the Daming Palace had been the main palace of the former Tang Dynasty until Xizong of the Tang Dynasty was driven to Chengdu.
Emperor Taizu has always used Daming Palace as his main palace since he established his capital in Chang'an. Although Emperor Taizong, who took control of the government in the later period, used Taiji Palace as his main palace until he moved the capital to Jingzhao. But in any case, Taiji Palace has a lower status than Daming Palace. Until the old man took over the power and began to patrol Xijing. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, Tai Chi Palace has actually been somewhat abandoned.
It was not until the old man began to visit Xijing that he did not want to live in the Daming Palace where the previous emperors had lived, and chose Taiji Palace as his main palace in Xijing. Taiji Palace was renovated. But its status in this dynasty is far inferior to the Daming Palace in the north where Emperor Taizu lived. Using Xijing and the lower-status Taiji Palace to test, even if the clan is still opposed, the degree will definitely be much smaller.
Even if something goes wrong, you can deal with it calmly. After thinking about this, Huang Qiong realized that this old man of his was really an old man in governing the country as his mother said, but his imperial scheming was quite remarkable. No wonder he could make his mother, a proud and arrogant person with unparalleled talent, martial arts, and ability, be devoted to him and never change her mind.
It's really hard for him to have to come up with so many tricks and tricks for just such a thing. However, this incident once again made Huang Qiong see that the old man had a very prominent weakness, which was that he was not decisive when encountering problems, and was even a little soft. The old man always wants to handle things too comprehensively, but how can there be so many things in this world that have the best of both worlds?
Whatever you do, you have to bear certain risks. I want to do what I want to do, but I don’t want to take any risks. How can there be such a good thing in this world? Maybe it's because the old man is too calculating and has too many twists and turns in this matter. The old man's way of handling this matter always made Huang Qiong feel too procrastinating, petty and unattractive.
Of course, Huang Qiong thought so in his heart, but he would never say it out loud. After he was busy appeasing him and moving into Tai Chi Palace with him, he had been feeling a little uneasy, and he was so nervous that he even spoke less. They were extremely careful in every move, word and deed. Dong Qianhong and the other girls, who usually refused to even say a word, and Huang Qiong, who was too late, how could they bother to cause trouble for themselves?
But if the emperor knew that his hard work was actually evaluated by his son, I don't know if he would scold him with a blank look. It was not until this time that Huang Qiong, who had been in Chang'an for some time, had the opportunity to look at this building built by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. It had gone through hundreds of years of ups and downs in the former Tang Dynasty and this dynasty, and had experienced two dynasties in the Tang Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, and the Qi Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. Replacement of the palace that had made him famous for so long.
Although this grand palace is no longer the main palace of the Qi Dynasty. Although it was no longer used in the main palace after the construction of the Daming Palace was completed in the former Tang Dynasty, it now looks a bit outdated. However, it still maintains the regulations of the former Tang Dynasty and has witnessed countless changes over the years. It has experienced changes in dynasties and countless major historical events. This palace is still extremely large in scale.
Standing on the top of the Chengtian Gate at the main gate of the palace and looking down, you can see that there are layers upon layers of palaces, pavilions and attics, and you can't even see the side at a glance. Especially the Taiji Hall, which is the main hall, is even more magnificent. According to Huang Qiong's estimation, the entire palace was almost three times larger than the Forbidden City in Beijing he had seen in his previous life. As the main hall, the Taiji Hall is far more regulated than the Taihe Hall in the Forbidden City in Beijing.
Thinking of this palace, it has been built since Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty usurped the throne, and it has gone through hundreds of years in the Sui, Tang and current dynasties. After experiencing the Sui Dynasty's destruction of the Tang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty's destruction of the Qi Dynasty, it also witnessed the parricide of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, the Xuanwumen Incident, and many other palaces where the royal family fought for the bloody heirloom. Huang Qiong couldn't help but secretly sigh: "Three hundred years of family and country, twenty thousand miles of land Rivers and mountains. Wind pavilions and dragon towers reach the sky. Yushu and qiongtwigs are used as tobacco and radish. How many times have you ever seen war?"
"Once the mutinous army arose, they would sink their waists and meng their temples. The last day would be a hasty farewell to the temple, and weeping to the palace maids. I think back to those days, when Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty conquered thousands of miles of mountains and rivers like a tiger. However, the descendants of later generations are indomitable. First of all, There was a female emperor who usurped the country, and then there were Taiping and Anle who caused chaos and chaos. Then Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, first overtly and then secretly, took his daughter-in-law and kept her in the harem, which triggered the Anshi Rebellion and almost destroyed the country."
"Later on, except for the three emperors Xianzong, Xuanzong, and Wuzong, who worked hard to govern, the other emperors were either completely dim or cowardly and incompetent. A master who never forgets the past and the future, although the former Tang Dynasty enjoyed the country for two hundred and sixty years However, in these more than 260 years, chaos accounted for most of it. Especially in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, rebellions in feudal towns occurred one after another, and the emperor deposed and controlled the eunuchs."
"Looking at the illustrious history of the Tang Dynasty for more than 200 years, it can be called a textbook of the opposites of emperors of all dynasties. During the Xuanwu Gate Incident, brothers killed each other. The arrival of the female emperor was the first of its kind in the history of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in thousands of years. The border generals rebelled against superiors. Fighting all the way from Yanshan to Chang'an. And then, what I just mentioned. The emperor was controlled by his slaves, his wife, and even his daughter, which is rare for emperors in the past."
"Although it did not appear, at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, after the Jin Hui Emperor Yang Queen destroyed the country, she was robbed and humiliated by Hu Jun to give birth to a son. However, the emperor was deposed and was controlled by his family slaves. He was forced by his ministers many times and could only escape from the capital in embarrassment. He was everywhere. They had food and no place to live. They were even forced to visit Xichuan twice, which in my opinion was a great shame and humiliation. I think that future emperors should learn from the two histories of Jin and Tang Dynasties."
Huang Qiong finished speaking. Since this was the first time Huang Qiong met someone in Tai Chi Palace, after the conversation, he dragged him to Chengtianmen together. At this time, a group of officials who were accompanying him stared at each other, and no one dared to speak. This newly minted prince evaluates the former Tang emperor here. He also said that the two histories of the Jin and Tang dynasties could be used as a guide. Is this something ordinary ministers like them can accept?
If it were this newly minted prince, they would still dare to talk to other prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Deyu, etc. as examples. But when it comes to talking about things with those emperors, who dare to speak up? Although this orientation is about not being punished by words. But everyone has worked hard for more than ten years and decades to get to where we are today. Who wants to lose his official position in a daze? Or offend the Lord.
