Yu Wenyong stared at his eldest son sternly.

"I have arranged studies for you, but you are not competent."

"At a young age, I started learning to drink from others."

"As the eldest son, you are so rude in the palace!!"

"Do you think that the eldest son will definitely become the prince?!"

Yu Wenyong asked angrily.

Yu Wenyun was trembling, not daring to speak, not even daring to look at his father.

Yuwen Yong asked someone to bring a whip and said, "From now on, you are not allowed to be rude in the palace!!"

"Pa~~"

"ah!!"

"Don't delay your studies!"

"Crack!!"

"Father, spare your life!!"

“No drinking allowed!!”

"Crack!!"

Yu Wenyong was beaten countless times. Yu Wenyun was covered in blood and lay on the ground trembling. The soldiers on both sides were frightened, but they did not dare to dissuade him.

Looking at his shivering son, Yu Wenyong dropped the whip in his hand and said solemnly: "It is a time when the world is in danger. As the eldest son, if you don't study, don't know the truth, and can't take the lead in observing etiquette, go to

How can we govern the world well in the future?!"

"From today on, I will send people to watch your every move."

"Report your behavior to me every month."

"If I find that you still don't repent and don't have the virtues of an eldest son, I won't make you the crown prince!"

"roll!"

Yu Wenyong cursed, and several guards hurriedly helped Yu Wenyun up and took him out of the main hall.

Yu Wenyong looked at his son leaving with disappointment and slowly closed his eyes.

He is nothing like himself. He has already reached this age and has not even completed the basic enlightenment. He is not good at horse riding and shooting. Even his attitude towards people, etiquette and other aspects are also problematic.

Therefore, until now, he has refused to make the eldest son the prince, but the other sons may not be as outstanding as the eldest son. He wants to wait and see if the younger ones will be like this in the future.

The only option is to let the eldest son become the crown prince. However, he cannot inherit the great cause. He must be treated harshly and whipped constantly to make him realize his mistakes!!

He also called in officials and asked them to keep an eye on his eldest son's every move and report on time.

After finishing everything, the sky was already getting dark.

However, Yu Wenyong was still trapped in the palace and unable to move around.

There are still piles of paperwork around me, and there are too many things to deal with.

Taoist Zhang Bin stood at the door with a grimace, looking carefully at the emperor inside, not daring to come near.

Zhang Bin was valued by the emperor through his excellent prophecies.

His greatest contribution was that after he discovered through divination that Liu Taozi was Xiongnu Qihu, he believed that in the future, Zhou Dynasty's documents and verbal titles should use "Dugu Qi harms the true" instead of Liu Taozi.

At the same time, he discovered through looking at Qi that Dugu Qizhen would definitely die an untimely death.

Yu Wenyong still adopted Zhang Bin's suggestion. The current Zhou people's main documents and verbal titles use the words "Hu Thief" and "Dugu Qi harms the true".

He also actively built momentum domestically to publicize the atrocities committed by Dugu Qizhen.

Yu Wenyong slowly put down the documents in his hand and looked up at the door.

"What are you doing at the door?!"

Zhang Bin lowered his head, walked tiptoe in front of the emperor, and knelt down in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, I am incompetent."

Yu Wenyong's face was still very ugly. After all, not long ago, this old Taoist priest kept saying that as soon as he came on stage, he would make those monks speechless and start to rectify Buddhism so that they would never get up again.

But Zhang Bin also let the emperor see the real result.

Without the emperor's help, these great monks could kill these old Taoist priests.

If he were labeled as a foreigner, Zhang Bin might not be able to make it out alive.

Looking at this incompetent old man, Yu Wenyong felt a little disdain in his heart.

Explain, Tao?

He originally wanted to use Tao to suppress it, and try to win over one faction and fight against another.

But now it seems that these two are useless. If you have the ability, it is best to kill them both together.

As Yu Wenyong thought about it, he felt a headache again. He gently rubbed his forehead. He had not rested for a long time.

Zhang Bin looked at the emperor secretly, and his eyes lit up at this moment.

"Your Majesty, have you been feeling weak lately?"

"Oh? Can you cure it?"

"Your Majesty, you have worked too hard and your vitality has been damaged. It just so happens that I am good at refining the Yuan-Pui Dan. Just one bite of this elixir can refresh your whole body, replenish your vitality, and prevent you from getting tired easily. Your Majesty is taking care of everything."

Yu Wenyong narrowed his eyes and asked suspiciously: "Is it useful?"

Zhang Bin raised his head and said, "It's definitely useful! This thing is a unique secret technique that our sect has refined for many years. It can even cure people. My ancestor originally met a hunter on the mountain and was bitten by a beast. He almost died. The ancestor used the elixir.

After feeding him, Orion woke up immediately and felt no pain in his whole body. After thanking his ancestor, he went down the mountain! Many people know about this!"

"Oh? Is it really so magical?"

Yu Wenyong was suddenly curious.

Zhang Bin said confidently: "Your Majesty, you will know whether it is true or false as soon as you try it!"

"If Your Majesty feels it is useless, I am willing to accept the death penalty!!"

Hearing what Zhang Bin said so sincerely, Yu Wenyong couldn't help but be shaken. The Zhou Dynasty he took over was a scarred and devastated country. He had too many things to do, and working hard all day made him feel

My body is deteriorating rapidly.

"Okay, go ahead and refine it. If it is really useful, I will give you another reward."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"

Zhang Bin breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him again.

Yu Wenyong added: "You have really disappointed me in this debate. In the future, I will continue to organize debates. You go and find me the most powerful Taoist priests. I must win against those monks."

!!”

"only!!!"

Zhang Bin left here, and Yu Wenyong was the only one left in the palace.

He picked up the document in front of him and glanced at it for a few times, feeling suddenly jealous of Liu Taozi.

If Liu Taozi wants to deal with those great monks, he can directly send troops to destroy their temples and force them to return to secular life. I heard that in Hebei, Liu Taozi allowed more than 400,000 monks and nuns to return to secular life.

Population: 400,000

Yu Wenyong felt greedy just thinking about it, and in his own territory, this number would definitely be several times higher.

It's a pity that he is not the immediate emperor and cannot act as recklessly as Liu Taozi.

However, sooner or later there will be a chance.

As long as there are enough people standing around you

"Someone is coming!"

"I order the Duke of Sui, Yang Jian, to pay an audience!!"

Follow the government of the country.

There were not many people in the mansion, and the lights were dim. Only the inner room was still bright.

Yang Jian sat in the upper position, holding tea in his hand, discussing with several people around him.

After Yang Zhong passed away, Yang Jian took the initiative to write a letter, hoping not to inherit the title and to serve his father as a mourner for a few years.

But Yu Wenhu directly ordered him to come to Chang'an to observe filial piety.

As soon as Yang Jian arrived in Chang'an, Yu Wenhu died in the hands of Yu Wenyong, which shocked and frightened Yang Jian.

He then began to live peacefully in Chang'an, not contacting any of his father's old friends, not interfering in temple affairs, and not even taking the initiative to ask for an official position from the emperor, and he almost began to feel at ease.

The people under his command persuaded him to find more young talents in Chang'an and take them as his disciples, but Yang Jian did not listen.

The most important thing he did in the house was to read. He read all kinds of books, from the art of war to divination, to internal affairs, calendars, farming, and laws. He even took the initiative to learn some unpopular foreign languages.

Since Yang Zhong's death, the arrogant young man who used to be a little domineering has become different.

He has become more taciturn and calm. He doesn't speak when he can. He thinks about things before he encounters them. When facing the people around him, he becomes more and more elder-like, no longer irritable, and even makes people ignore his true nature.
