Yang Song handing over the throne to Yang Xian was a matter of course. When Yang Song announced the news at the Great Court meeting at the end of April, it did not exceed the expectations of the ministers.

Although unsurprisingly, retention still has to be retained, especially those senior officials who really hope that Yang Song can stay on the throne for a longer period of time.

In addition to being reluctant to leave Yang Song, this is also a matter of the vital interests of the ministers.

Because if Yang Song can continue to remain on the throne, then these senior officials will have an excuse to continue to serve until they are sixty years old.

Yang Zhong, who was in charge of the palace before, was actually nearly seventy years old, but the reason why he can still stay in this position now is that besides the particularity of the department of the palace, there is also the reason why Yang Song did not speak.

There are three departments under the pavilion: Fengchang Mansion, Zongzheng Mansion, and Zhinei Mansion, which are respectively responsible for the management of the nobility and honor of the Xia State; the management of the royal family, the clan and the inner treasury; and the management of state-owned assets enterprises and institutions.

It is equivalent to half an institution dedicated to the royal family, so if you want to have a competent official, you must be a royal family member.

But before, apart from Yang Zhong, the chief steward, no one in the royal family was able to serve. After all, none of Yang Song's heirs had grown up yet.

And now, Yang Xian is about to inherit the throne. Yang Song has arranged the personnel of the mansion. He arranged his second son Yang Ming to be Yang Zhong’s assistant for a long time, which is equivalent to Yang. Ming is the "heir" of the palace.

Therefore, after waiting for Yang Song to leave the throne, a large number of "old people" in the court will also leave. Apart from the reason of age, isn't there a saying that "one dynasty is the emperor and one courtier" is not there.

Yang Xian has been a prince for so many years, and he has already cultivated a team that belongs to him. There is no need for Yang Song to worry about the rest. If not, what is Yang Xian's ability but this important task.

As for the specific time for the transfer of the throne, Yang Song, after many considerations, decided to set the date of Yang Xian's accession to the throne on September 5th in the thirteenth year of Qiyuan.

This day is still a few months away from now, and it is completely enough to make preparations, and there will be no extraneous branches. This time is not long or short, just right.

...

On September 5th, taking the meaning of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, Yang Song and Yang Xian held a retreat and enthronement ceremony in Zhongjing City.

At the beginning of the ceremony, Yang Song, as an emperor, read his last edict in front of his subjects, announcing his abdication with Prince Yang Xian.

Then Yang Song personally presided over the coronation ceremony for the throne. After the coronation ceremony, there was nothing to do with Yang Song, because afterwards was Yang Xian's enthronement ceremony.

Yang Song retired behind the scenes. So far, Yang Xian became the protagonist. The entire day was spent interacting with the new emperor Yang Xian and the ministers.

The whole process of the ceremony went smoothly. After a busy day, Yang Song has changed from the former emperor of the Great Xia Empire to the current Supreme Emperor.

Since then, Yang Xian has also become a supreme emperor, and the entire Great Xia Empire has even been handed over to him by Yang Song.

In the evening, at a dinner hosted by the new emperor Yang Xian, Yang Song only showed up again, and the ministers called him "The Supreme Emperor".

Although the Supreme Emperor sounds good, yet Yang Song has stayed away from the center of government, and only has the power to assist the new Emperor.

Of course, this is only theoretical. In fact, the emperor including Yang Xian knows how powerful Yang Song is. If Yang Song is not satisfied, he can abolish Yang Xian at any time without being opposed.

Yang Song also knew how influential he was, so after abdicating, he basically stayed in the simplest place, not contacting foreign ministers outside the palace, in order to help Yang Xian consolidate his throne.

After that, after Yang Xian secured his position, there was no need for others to say more about it. Those ministers who had reached their age in the middle of the DPRK retired one after another.

The first to bear the brunt was Yang Zhong from the palace. He retired first. Yang Ming, the second prince, became the head of the new palace, and several other princes also held positions in the palace.

Of course, Yang Xian will not block these officials who are dedicated to officialdom. This is part of Xia's law, and now it is just implemented in accordance with the law.

In the same way, for those ministers who are under 60 years old, even if Yang Xian wants the other party to leave, it is not that easy, at least there must be an excuse.

Moreover, Yang Xian also knew the preciousness of these old ministers. At least the experience was not comparable to that of young people. It would not be easy for him if all these old ministers who followed Yang Song had been honored.

But even so, Yang Xian knew that the remaining veterans had stayed in their seats for a while, because the age limit was there.

Fortunately, there is still a buffer period, so that Yang Xian can train a new group of important personnel, and the personnel, there are not many in the Imperial Academy.

The Imperial Academy was originally a place for the talent pool of important officials. In order to prepare for the replacement of old and new officials, Yang Xian did not have to worry about finding talents, thanks to Xia Guo's complete system.

With the passage of time, there has been a very big change in Xia's officialdom. Some foreign officials have been transferred back, some Beijing officials have been transferred, and even more have been a large number of veteran officials.

Among them, such old people as Xun Yu, Chang Sun Sheng, Li Jing, Liu Ji, Di Qing... all of them have paid official posts one after another.

The head of the military pavilion will be held by Qi Jiguang, a later name, and the political pavilion will be qualified by Wei Dong, a minister of households. However, Wei Dong is also a bit older, and it is estimated that he will not stay in this position for a few years. .

Zhou Yi, who had actually served as the governor of a state in Jiehe City, returned to Zhongjingcheng as the Shangshu of the Hubu...

Although there are great changes in the court~www.novelmtl.com~, there is nothing wrong with Yang Song. He has been living in the palace for a long time since this time, and he has gained a lot of weight.

Moreover, with the veteran official's resignation, Yang Song also had the opportunity to reunite with these old people, so there was no previous boredom.

For example, after Liu Ji, Xun Yu, and Li Jing met with Yang Song, they lost their previous restraints, but became intimate.

A group of old people, or a group of not-so-simple old people, gathered together. The secret bank attracted outsiders' discussion, and some even said that this was Xia Guo's "senate".

But no matter how outsiders talk, Yang Song and others gather together. In addition to the small chats, they are more about gathering together to talk about the experience of fighting together, remembering the fleeting youth in a blink of an eye.

Yang Song and Yang Zhong talked about the past when they started with three thousand soldiers and civilians in Tianqi City, and then talked about the subsequent wars, kingship, and emperorship...

In short, this group of elderly people have endless words together, as if everything in the outside world is far away from them and close at hand.

While chatting, Yang Song remembered what he had previously thought of to see Xia Guo, and then explained his thoughts to the rest of the people.

Who knows what Yang Song said, the rest of the people all showed interest and expressed their willingness to go together.

But Yang Song refused. He didn't want to have a large group of people following him now.

Therefore, Yang Song said that he still depends on his own. Of course, he doesn't object to the others walking with others, but he will no longer walk with the others.

When Yang Song was ready, he took Lan and Juan, the two daughters who accompanied him all his life, and some necessary personnel, and then quietly left Zhongjing City and started his journey in the summer.
