    In fact, except for Huang Mingyuan, not many people are concerned about the situation of the son of the former prince who has been dead for five or six years.  Five or six years is enough time for most people in the world to forget about Yang Yong.

    Soon, everyone¡¯s attention turned to another matter, official reform.

    At the beginning of April, Yang Guang issued a new edict. Officials could not be promoted according to the normal assessment system. Only those with moral character, outstanding merits and abilities could be promoted.

    As soon as this order came out, all the officials were in an uproar.  Originally, there were a few officials who did not seek promotion, but the upgrade of the normal assessment system protected the interests of most ordinary officials. They may not have many connections to clear the way, and they could not directly reach the heaven, that is, they relied on step-by-step assessment and promotion.  , was promoted.  But now they still have to test their moral character, and they also need to have obvious merits and abilities. Doesn't this block their way forward?

    "These days, those who have the ability to improve their moral character and meritorious service will become officials in the following counties.

    Huang Mingyuan really wants to see Yang Guang's brain circuit. As an emperor who has reached the pinnacle of power, does he really have to kill himself step by step?  If officials are not promoted according to the normal assessment system, it does not give them an opportunity to be promoted.  Aren't those who can be promoted not necessarily those with strong abilities but certainly strong connections?  Isn¡¯t it the emperor¡¯s rights that would be most harmed by such a system?

    But Yang Guang seemed unable to see it.

    Yang Guang was too stingy about his position. If there were ministers who should be promoted to nobility, they would mostly be given part-time jobs.  Although there are vacancies in some positions, they are not filled.

    In early April, Yang Guang ordered the establishment of ministers to select Cao.

    Yang Guang finally took action against the officials.

    Originally, Niu Hong served as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, in charge of official information and the power to appoint and remove officials. He could appoint and remove officials of fourth rank and below. However, at this time, Niu Hong could not perform his duties at all.

    This time Yang Guang appointed Nayan Suwei, General of the Ministry of War Zuo Wuwei Huang Mingyuan, General Zuo Yiwei Yu Wenshu, Huangmen Minister Pei Ju, Zuowei General Zhang Jin, and Internal History Minister Yu Shiji to participate in the selection of officials.  The six of them and Niu Hong were collectively called the "Select Cao Qigui"

    Among the seven, Su Wei, Niu Hong, Huang Mingyuan, and Pei Ju are all prime ministers. Yu Wenshu and Yu Shiji are the emperor's confidants and the top military generals. As for Zhang Jin, Yang Guang threw a soy sauce to the Guanlong family to block it.  their mouths.

    Zhang Jin is a cowardly person and not very courageous.  He was Yuwenshu's subordinate. He once said something in the army. Yuwenshu felt dissatisfied, so he directly scolded Zhang Jin with wide eyes.  Zhang Jin was also incompetent. He was so frightened that he ran away in fear, so he was ridiculed by everyone.

    Among the seven people, no one took Zhang Jin seriously, and he had no right to speak.

    Although these seven people were sitting at the same time, Yang Guang intervened through Yu Shiji.  Therefore, the real power of promotion, appointment and dismissal of officials was actually controlled by Yu Shiji through Yang Guang's power.  And Yu Shiji himself was also a corrupt official. He accepted bribes. Those who paid a lot of bribes were promoted above the rank and did not follow common sense. Those who did not pay bribes could only stay where they were.

    Of course, that¡¯s not all.

    Daye three years (607) April, Renchen (fourteenth day).

    Yang Guang ordered:

    The inner province of the palace was added to the five provinces together with the minister's province, the minister's province, the internal history province, and the secretary's province; the Yezhe, Sili and Yushitais were added to three; the Taifu Temple was divided into Shaofujian, and Changqiu.  , the son of the state, the general, and the water in the capital are the five prisons.

    Change the Twelve Guards to Twelve Guards and Four Prefectures.  Among them, the left and right guards were changed to left and right Yiwei; the left and right bodyguards were changed to left and right Xiaowei; the left and right armed guards were still the old names; the left and right leading army mansions were changed to left and right garrison guards;  The left and right imperial guards; the left and right Wuhou Mansion were changed to the left and right marquis guards; the left and right leaders' left and right mansions were changed to the left and right Bishen Mansion; the left and right prison gate mansions remained the old names.  Among them, Yu Wenshu still leads the Zuo Yi Guard; Yang Da leads the Right Yi Guard; Huang Mingyuan leads the Left Wu Guard; Li Jing leads the Right Wu Guard; Dugu Lan leads the Left Xiao Guard; Lai Huer leads the Right Xiao Guard; and Guo Yan leads the Left Hou Guard.  ; Wei Xuan led the right marquis guard; Zhang Dinghe led the left garrison guard; Yu Zhongwen led the right garrison guard; and the newly established left and right imperial guards did not set up generals.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\©\ " ""  At the same time, fifteen officials and governors were set up in the county to take charge of supervision.

    Changes in measures, quantities, and measures are all based on the ancient system.

    Officials below the Shangzhu Kingdom were changed to Dafu. There were originally eleven levels from the Shangzhu Kingdom to the Governor. Now they are changed to Guanglu, Zuo Guanglu, You Guanglu, Jinzi Guanglu, Yinqing Guanglu, Zhengyi, Tongyi,  The nine officials of Chaoqing and Chaosan were changed to the official rank of Yipin Wensan from Kaifuyi Tongsansi.

    Of course, the above points are acceptable no matter how they are explained.

    But the next one made everyone collapse.

      The uncles, princes, and barons were abolished, leaving only the third rank of king, duke, and marquis.  Moreover, all the titles, honorary titles, and casual officials previously conferred will be abolished, and they will be re-conferred after meritorious service.  Moreover, all the titles he received became casual and civil official titles such as Guanglu Doctor.  As for the originally huge Wangfu, Shangzhuguofu, Zhuguofu and other subordinate officials at all levels, they were all abolished.

    In all fairness, are these reforms good?  good!

    But are everyone willing to accept it?  Not willing!

    Yang Guang¡¯s move can be said to have abolished or frozen all the honors, titles, status, and official promotions of the aristocratic family. For the family members, all that was left was to dig their ancestral graves.

    It can be said that Yang Guang can be said to be the enemy of all aristocratic families.

    From the fall of the Sui Dynasty to the fall of the Tang Dynasty, during the disaster of Baimayi, Zhu Wen led more than 30 top clan leaders, including Pei Shu, the left servant, Dugu Sun, the military governor of the Qing Dynasty, Cui Yuan, the right servant, Lu Ke, the official minister, and Gong.  More than 30 "well-dressed" people, including Wang Pu, the Minister of the Ministry, Zhao Chong, the Chief Taibao, and Wang Zan, the Minister of the Ministry of War, threw their bodies into the river, which marked the demise of the family politics.

    And Yang Guang was actually planning to complete this matter three hundred years in advance.  Therefore, after the three conquests of Goryeo, everyone rose up to attack the Sui Dynasty, and no one was really loyal to the Sui Dynasty. Li Tang's troops marched into Guanzhong like a devastation, which was the root of the disaster.

    Of course, Huang Mingyuan can't stop it.

    Regarding Yang Guang¡¯s policy, Huang Mingyuan once advised Yang Guang: ¡°It¡¯s easy to sprain your feet if you walk so fast.¡±

    Yang Guang returned to Huang Mingyuan and said: "The world is so big, how can we move forward quickly if we don't walk fast? The road is long, and although there are occasional sprained feet, it is just a scabies disease, so it is nothing to worry about."

    Huang Mingyuan was speechless.

    The disease of scabies may eventually become a disease of the elbows and armpits, and the disease may even become terminal.

    Regarding these reforms, other people are dissatisfied, and Huang Mingyuan cannot be dissatisfied.  Moreover, Huang Mingyuan's title of Duke of Wei was originally a title after the restructuring and was not in the ranks of dethronement.

    Yang Guang also appointed Huang Mingyuan and Yu Wenshu as the three divisions of Kaifu Yitong, which were the highest positions among casual officials.  Everyone is envious.  There is no way, who can call me a confidant?

    In addition, Dugu Zuan, the Duke of Zhao, was granted the title of Duke of Shu; Duke Xiao Cong of Ju was granted the title of Duke of Liang; Master Douluyuan was granted the title of Marquis of Yongqiu, all of whom were relatives of Yang Guang.  Including Huang Mingyuan, Yu Wenshu, and Yang Xuangan, there were only six people in the entire court with titles.

    In fact, not only Huang Mingyuan saw the problem, but also women and children understood the shortcomings of Yang Guang's policy.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
