Chapter 255 (1/2)
The second day after the spring rain was a fine day.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, as early as the third watch, all civil and military officials were waiting at the gate of the altar.
The auspicious time had come, and the ceremony of enthronement began.
Sacrificing to heaven is a ritual of sacrificing to Taiyi God. There are three layers of altars, surrounded by green, red, white, black and yellow five emperor altars, killing white deer, pigs and white yaks as sacrifices. Yimao Sanji grass produced in Jianghuai area is used as the God's book, and the five color soil is used to benefit miscellaneous seals. Strange animals and rare birds are placed all over the mountain to show auspiciousness.
The drum, Taihe and flute are playing. The young man standing on the high altar is dressed in a bright yellow robe. The real dragon on his sleeve is ready to fly, but his face is quiet. He holds the imperial seal and his eyes are sharp and deep.
Directly below him, Xiao Shao, an important official of the imperial court, wore an official uniform with red background embroidered with white python, holding the imperial edict of the former Emperor, and issued the imperial edict word by word. The young man is usually silent and indifferent, but now his voice is clear and steady, and every sentence is like an iron strike in people's hearts, like silent support, which makes people tremble.
When the musicians in the palace played, a high official helped the new master of Dajin Dynasty to the throne. The moment he ascended the throne, all the music stopped suddenly. All the officials congratulated him and worshiped the gods. They all cried out: ”long live the emperor -”
the young emperor was sitting in a high position, his eyes glancing at the top of the important official hill, which was a kind of arrogance Life's eyes, that is, the courtiers did not look up, but also can feel an unspeakable pressure. Just listen to the young Lang Sheng say: ”all Qing flat body -”
the courtiers raise their eyes, the young emperor's delicate face at this moment has completely faded the last point of harmless noble spirit, or the last point of camouflage, appears extremely sharp. It's like the lazy cub finally showed his white teeth, and with a wave of his paw, it was a sharp intention to kill.
It's the pressure of those who are in the top position. It's also the calmness of those who are used to watching big scenes. At this moment, it's the same teenager who shows it. There are many ministers in the courtiers who are still hesitating in their hearts. At this moment, they all think that this young man is a natural king because of his cunning, dogmatism, cruelty, benevolence, and coldness of nature.
It was born to be king.
The Dajin Dynasty ushered in a new master. The young man sat on the throne with a clear voice. However, his voice was deep and solemn, and he was gradually confident. He said: ”there is a national code, amnesty to the world -”
”those who follow me prosper, those who rebel against me perish -”
”I am the son of heaven, and I am the world -”
three sentences are sonorous, It's like the apocalyptic motto passed down from the time when heaven and earth were in flood and famine. It reverberates between heaven and earth, and there is no other master in the great Jin Dynasty. This young man is the emperor of the great Jin Dynasty, once the prince of waste, xuanpei!
The Golden Dragon on the corner of the robe almost soars to the sky, but not to the sky. A smile overflows from the young man's lips. The smile is clear and fuzzy, which makes people feel cold. No one can guess the emperor's mind. Standing on the right side of Taifu's face, a trace of complex feelings floated up. This move, in the end, was right. The boy really had the spirit of a real dragon as he thought, but it was deeper than he imagined. But he still didn't regret it. The so-called one or two times in his life, he should live for himself and support Xuan Pei to ascend the throne. That's what he wanted to do.
At the moment when the ceremony was completed, the leader of the bodyguard suddenly rushed in and said, ”Your Majesty, no good, your eighth Highness has rebelled with a kind of minister. The general imperial guards have defected. Now they are encircling the capital from outside the city.”
The young emperor on the high seat smiles slightly, as if he is not surprised by this. Xuanli did not attend today's ceremony, or it is a fact that everyone knows. As a loser, Xuanli can't watch the throne fall into other people's hands, let alone watch the ceremony complete with his own eyes. Just choose to start at this time, is it impulsive or completely prepared? It's a little reckless.
”The officers and officials of the Dajin Dynasty are now rebellious, and the eight kings of the former imperial dynasty are rebellious. His Royal Highness Prince Hongxi judged the rebellion by his own strength, and did not hesitate to change his body. Now, when I see this scene again, it's time for me to ascend the throne. I am the son of heaven today, and I will fight with you. Take up your weapons, for the sake of the stability and prosperity of the Dajin Dynasty, and drive out the bandits, I will be Dajin! My country is not allowed to be invaded by those who have bad intentions. Whoever covets my country, I will trample on its body. Grand brocade, monopolized by Tianwei
He was not at all flustered by the sudden news, and even raised the morale of civil and military officials by this saying. Prince Hongxi of the former dynasty used metaphors to express the confidence and determination of the young emperor. But even if he was so arrogant, people didn't think that he was talking big. On the contrary, they thought that what the boy said was loud, as if he could do it. So, just a moment later, a general called out and said, ”I will defend Dajin land to the death! Follow your majesty to the death
It seems that when the first person spoke, more and more people were affected by this kind of emotion. Their blood was surging out of control, and they knelt down to fight one after another. The cry became louder and louder, and they rushed to the sky. In the end, they could only hear hundreds of men's powerful voices ringing in the altar: ”I will follow your majesty to the death!”With a satisfied smile, Xuan Pei slowly stood up. The Golden Dragon on the corner of his robe glared at him, and he said in a steady voice: ”fight!”
Fight!
……。
Xuan Pei's speed of accepting people's hearts was much faster than most people expected. This young man not only won the support of the people, but also quickly set up wechat among civil and military officials. It was not long after the ceremony that someone told a secret. It turned out that there was a shop in the Dajin dynasty that was the biggest benevolent and righteous family. Who knows now that xuanpei was the owner behind those shops. Naturally, the common people are grateful for this. It is better to have a benevolent and righteous Emperor than anything else. The emperor still issued the imperial edict to pass on the throne, so naturally, he did not hesitate to favor him. Xuanli's rebellion with his troops was originally a matter of great treason. These days, the people around the capital suffered because of the war. Xuanpei sent people to send things to appease the injured people, which won a lot of popular support for a while.
As for the court hall, there were some old ministers in the court who supported Xuan Pei, and Xuan Pei's life was not too hard. Besides, he also has his own unique way to accept. For those ministers who are still dissatisfied with the idea, the combination of grace and power has also received miraculous results. Moreover, the longer he got along with the new emperor, all the ministers almost felt that Xuan Pei was not like a young emperor who had just ascended the throne. Everything he had done, including the means of dealing with political affairs, was like an experienced official. Even in the face of a difficult situation in front of him, can defuse cleverly. It's like he didn't become emperor for the first time, but for many years. They are so skillful that they don't even need the guidance of the ministers around them. With this understanding, ministers will be taboo three points to the emperor. In this way, the relationship between the monarch and his ministers will be more stable.
