Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1487 Three words and five concessions
The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was finally held as scheduled without any risk. As King Liang ascended the stage to offer sacrifices to heaven, Du He retreated with a sullen face and arranged some matters to clean up the situation.

The first thing he ordered was to strictly control the food supply inside and outside Luoyang City, all the gates of the city were under martial law, and the people were prohibited from bringing large amounts of food into and out of the city.

Although the enthusiasm of the people to participate in the persuasion is extremely high, the enthusiasm cannot be eaten as food. This grand ceremony will last for nine days, and the people have to participate in the ceremony from beginning to end without eating or drinking.As long as the diet can be controlled, the number of people watching the ceremony will definitely decrease later, so that the ceremony can be back on track later.

The next step is to tell the officials of the counties and townships around Heluo that no matter what method they use, they must quickly attract the people who belong to their jurisdiction to rule, and at the same time must avoid vicious incidents of harsh punishments.Especially before and after the grand ceremony, if any one is found, one will be severely punished, and no tolerance will be tolerated!

As for what the county and township officials should do, it will test their own wisdom, and Du He, a central official, can't work hard to fill in the omissions for them.

There is also the most important one, that is, the defense around Luoyang City has to be raised to a higher level.It is not too late to remedy this point. The old Luo army city already had enough troops of the king's divisions stationed there, and in the next few days there will be several divisions of the king's divisions from Jiankang going north and Bingzhou returning to Luo. Among them, King Liang has already arranged to return from Taiyuan. Xiao Yuandong took over the defense of Heluo from the old and sick Huan Xuan.

Du He, the general manager of the Xingtai, has indeed been working hard recently. He has to preside over the affairs of the ceremony of the King of Liang, and the daily affairs of the Xingtai must not be slack. What is more important is that Xingtai will officially become Xingtai administrator In the center, the officials have been inspected and conferred, and the various official positions have clear divisions of powers, and they all need to be launched together, and they are really busy.

It took nine days to sacrifice to heaven and accept orders, including three major sacrifice ceremonies, and more than 30 smaller ones.Since Liang Wang personally participated in the festival, some of the festival specifications also needed to be adjusted in time.The full nine days were busy and fulfilling for everyone involved, but it was finally completed without any omissions.

Fortunately, after the ceremony, the remedy was still timely. Except for the mistakes made during the busy schedule at the beginning, the number of people watching the ceremony dropped sharply in the next few days. Stay to watch the ceremony.But even so, there are still tens of thousands of people gathered along the way from the center of Luoyang city to the festival site in the suburbs. After all, the number of registered residents in Luoyang has reached hundreds of thousands.

On the day when the ceremony was completed and returned to the garden, the ritual system of the king of Liang’s driving and driving was different. The left banner of the yellow house and the hanging of the Luan flag were just like the ritual system of the emperor. In the front, there were two thousand victorious warriors who bravely cleared the road and cleared the streets. Turn back to Luoyang City.

Many arrangements have been made in the city of Luoyang in the past few days. Lanterns and colors are hung on both sides of the imperial street, and the walls of each square facing the neighborhood are also painted with red and painted purple, giving it a new look.

After Jitian was ordered, Taiyuan didn't need to cover up anymore.The forbidden garden pavilion is named after Taiji Palace. There are three front and rear halls, and left and right hatchbacks of Taiji Palace.

Liang Wangyi drove straight to the outside of the Hanyuan Hall. After three invitations from the ministers, Liang Wang got out of the car and entered the hall. In the middle of the hall, the royal bed was placed on the imperial seal, which symbolizes being ordered by heaven.As King Liang entered the palace, the officials also filed in.

The previous ceremony of the three speeches was disrupted by enthusiastic people, but the ceremony of five concessions still needs to continue.After the king of Liang ascended the palace, he stopped at a place about ten feet away from the imperial bed, and worshiped the sky facing north.

This first visit to the palace was just a small show of sovereignty. Afterwards, King Liang withdrew from the Hanyuan Palace and temporarily lived in the side hall, and changed his clothes to represent the king's black knees and purple gold ribbon.

After that, there was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, it was no longer a group of ministers to invite, but the central government selected the wise elders of the country, and the noble elders such as Cui Yue and Lu Chen continued to enter the palace to persuade them to ascend the throne.

So on this day, the king of Liang continued to climb the palace, looked at his seat, and continued to push south to give up his position. He asked the officials to choose a virtuous man in the south to take charge of the state affairs. On this day, the officials from Wu and Chu refused to accept it.

After retreating to the palace again, the sleeping hall where King Liang lived was named "Mingde Hall", and King Liang's clothing was changed again, wearing a plain red wrap.

On the third day, the courtiers with more than [-] shi continued to persuade them to enter, repeating yesterday's process, and let the virtuous people go to the east.On the fourth day, Fang Bo, the official of Sifang Prefecture and County, continued to persuade him to move in, and let the virtuous people go west.

Until the fifth day, not only a group of ministers came to kowtow, including Xianliang in the wild, the chiefs or envoys of the six barbarians, a total of [-] people continued to gather outside the Hanyuan Hall to persuade them to enter again.

This time, Liang Wang gave way in the middle, and continued to be refused by the officials.After these five concessions, they finally expressed their stubbornness to each other. Liang Wang was ruthlessly rejected several times, and finally at noon on this day, he sat on the imperial bed full of grievances.

But this is not a formal enthronement as emperor, it only means that Liang Wang has first received the destiny and was able to command his officials.After sitting on the imperial bed for a while, he instructed his close ministers to tell the ministers that you people are really bullying me, and you want to force others to push me to the top, but I am a benevolent and humble person, and I don’t want to go against everyone’s wishes , can only barely accept it.

However, the prestige of the country is definitely not something that can be done in a hurry.You are so earnest that I was caught off guard, but you should not make a hasty gift and neglect the mandate of heaven, because you are going home separately, preparing a grand ceremony, and accepting the mandate of heaven.

After the completion of the ceremony on this day, although King Liang has not officially ascended the throne, he can already abandon the old title and proclaim himself emperor.After retreating from the palace, he was officially replaced with the crown of the emperor, and at the same time returned to the Liang Palace, waiting for the ministers to organize and arrange the enthronement ceremony.

After half a month, what Shen Zhezi felt most deeply was not the majesty and joy of the first master of the monarchy, but the deep exhaustion.In his opinion, this whole set of cumbersome etiquette is not so much a demonstration of the destiny and dignity of the dignity, but rather a joint action by the government and the opposition to give him, the new emperor, a blow.

But from another perspective, this is not his absolute control over the general trend. With his current momentum, of course, he can skip this cumbersome process and directly proclaim the imperial system, but the reason why the ceremony is meaningful is that it is a political form. The contract in the world, the Xinliang regime is based on the people's will and righteousness, and it is by no means just a hegemony by force.

Although the political reasons for this kind of resignation etiquette are different, they all have the same intention, that is, to make the rationality of one's own regime's appointment as direct and extensive as possible with the expression of the general public's wishes, so that people can gain A sense of participation.

If there is no such process, once Liang Shizhong declines in the future, some people may openly denounce the Shen royal family, all the bullies will harm the country, the lives of the people will be ruined, and the great contribution to saving the world, how can one family do it?At the time when the common people were working hard, millions of strong men fought against Hu, and when they succeeded, the Shen family was proud of their achievements, regardless of the opinions of the public, and blatantly seized this special achievement as their own private business!

What people rely on must be countermeasures, and Shen Zhezi can't predict whether future generations will be wise or stupid, but under the circumstances that the situation can still be completely controlled, he can avoid such accusations through a little twists and turns.The situation of people is ever-changing, who can honestly say that today's people praise the great sage who saved the world, and they will not become the great evil who will be denounced by everyone in the future?Don't be afraid of the front, but respect the back.

Of course, this kind of exhaustion, few people will not enjoy it.After returning to the old mansion, his mood has been in a subtle excitement.

Of course, except for Shen Zhezi who still has to maintain that kind of calmness in the open face and calmness in his heart, the rest of the family members are already too excited.

Turning a family into a country is just four words. In the long history of Zhuxia Shenzhou, how many can enjoy this honor!How many people can remain indifferent when they really take this step?

Shen Chong arrived in Luoyang on the third day of the Wurang Ceremony. In order to avoid losing his temper in front of others, he stayed behind closed doors for the past few days, sitting alone in a quiet room, sleepless nights.

When Shen Zhezi returned to the mansion, he saw his father's face was flushed and his eyes were even more bloodshot. He couldn't help but be surprised: "The itinerary has already been determined. Father, why are you so anxious and exhausted?"

"I, I'm just... well, you don't need to persuade me, and I don't know how to explain myself, but, but before this, who can honestly say that Shen Shiju will have this day... God loves you, and justice is up to you ... My family, my family can wait until this time, and how much virtue has been accumulated by the ancestors, so that my father and son can be so honored..."

At this moment, Shen Chong was still so excited that he could not speak coherently, his heart was full of emotions, and he didn't know how to express it properly. He danced and danced for a while, and burst into tears for a while.Even in a loss of composure, he actually wanted to thank his son with a big gift for making the family prosperous to such an extent that Shen Zhezi jumped out of the room three times in a fright, fearing that if he stayed a little longer, he would see his father go crazy with joy.

But Shen Zhezi can understand how his father lost his composure.Fan Jinzhongju of the later generations, that kind of joy can already make people crazy, not to mention that the Shen family has become the emperor of the emperor now!
In fact, the joy in Shen Zhezi's heart may not be much less than that of his father. The reason why he can maintain a calm under this great joy is simply because he deeply remembers that enthronement and proclaiming emperor is just a new starting point for him. The responsibilities on his shoulders are much more than before, and the short-lived prosperity is by no means the end of his pursuit.

Of course, this bit of rational sobriety is really a bit of a renunciation, even if Shen Zhezi is willing to share it with others at the moment, it seems to others that he is mostly hypocritical.

In fact, there is no obvious surprise in Shen Zhezi's daily life now compared to before, and it is even a bit busier.After visiting his father, he changed out of the heavy and inconvenient diadem, put on his home clothes, and began to review many affairs at his desk.

After the enthronement ceremony, many affairs will rush in like a tsunami. In order to ensure that the real event will not be delayed, Shen Zhezi does not have much time to taste the sweet fruits.

The Northern Expedition to exterminate the Hu did not depend on the efforts of one person.In order to prepare for his own affairs, many affairs have been put on hold. Shen Zhezi can afford to wait, but it does not mean that the hardworking soldiers are the same.

Although Wang Shi was victorious and swept away the fallen leaves against the remnants of Jiehu, there were still many wounded and sick soldiers.Shen Zhezi sincerely hopes that the matter can be concluded as soon as possible, and then the matter of sharing the merits and rewards will be implemented as soon as possible. Even if these injured and sick people are doomed to be incurable, he also hopes to know that he has worked so hard and died. Satisfied with the return.

So when the city was full of hustle and bustle, and all the people in the government and the public were rejoicing at the great event of the British lord's ascension to the throne and establishment of the system, Shen Zhezi took advantage of the few days before his enthronement to sort out the latest battle reports from all sides, Be aware of it, and push the matter of remuneration into the implementation stage as soon as possible.

After nearly a month of preparations, the old year of Qitai was coming to an end, and the various regulations of the new dynasty were finally roughly framed. The date for the enthronement ceremony of Emperor Liang was finally determined, and it was chosen on the first day of the twelfth lunar month. Re-entering a new chapter, Daliang Jianguo and the establishment of the system!
