Chapter 9 The Enthronement Ceremony
"The main way governs the sky, and the civilization controls the calendar; the great treasure is the position, and the Chenji is respected. Don't replace it. Announce it to the world, so that it can be known."

Li Yuan's "Decree for the Crown Prince of Zen" resounded in the Hall of Xiande through the mouth of Sikong Peiji, announcing to the world that the Tang Dynasty, which had been established for nine years, finally ushered in his new emperor.

Passing on the Nine Seals to the Son of Heaven, granting the Jade Book, and being worshiped by hundreds of officials. After a series of tedious but indispensable processes, Li Shimin's enthronement ceremony can be regarded as a complete success.

However, the only regret of the enthronement ceremony was that Li Yuan was not able to attend in person, and the place where the ceremony was held was not the Taiji Hall, the main hall in the Taiji Palace, but the Xiande Hall in the East Palace.

Even though there is an edict for Li Yuan's Zen position, anyone with a discerning eye can see that behind this "Zen Crown Prince's Edict" is the hundreds of lives of Prince Yin who built a party, and Li Shimin's military power in the hands of the imperial army.

Today's enthronement ceremony is called the Zen position, but it is actually a forced palace.

Faced with such a situation, Li Yuan, who is old and has little control over the court, is naturally unable to compete with Li Shimin. The only thing he can do is to sing against Li Shimin in these details and vent his dissatisfaction.

But now no one cares about Li Yuan's attitude anymore, because the throne has been decided, and the sky of Datang has changed.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and all the ceremonies have been completed, and the rest is naturally to reward the heroes and amnesty the world.

When Li Shimin ascended the throne, the eldest Sun Wuji, Fang Du, Yu Chigong and other old ministers of the Tiance Mansion were the first to be considered for meritorious service. This time, the protagonists are naturally the protagonists.

Standing at the top of the Xiande Hall, Li Shimin, who newly held the imperial power, looked at the ministers standing on the steps below, and he was full of ambition, and issued his first imperial edict after he ascended the throne.

"The emperor's ministers and people dare to use Xuan Mu to declare to the emperor and empress: the husband grows from the people, and the tree is used to support the herdsmen. Therefore, the extreme is the sky, the creation of the yuan, and the way of the road. The world is only public, and life is not ordinary. "

Li Shimin's succession edict was discussed and drafted together with Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Changsun Wuji, and everything was included in Changsun Wuji's belly draft. The whole court listened to this succession edict, except for Li Shimin, The most proud one is probably his eldest grandson Wuji.

Today, he is facing the great seal of the imperial court, his younger sister, the eldest Sun, is the empress, his nephew Li Chengqian is the crown prince, his uncle Sun Shunde is the general of You Xiaowei, his uncle Gao Shilian is the servant, and he himself is named the Duke of Qi and Minister of the Ministry of Officials. is a high weight.

The Changsun family is now in such a good mood, it can be foreseen that in the next few decades, the Changsun family will be able to maintain their prosperity and become the most powerful family in the dynasty. It is impossible to say that they can go further in the future, stepping on the Li family of Longyou and the Yang family of Hongnong At one end, he became the head of the Guanlongmen clan.

The imperial decree of rewards is still going on, Changsun Wuji has already unfolded a picture scroll in his chest, how to make the Changsun family famous all over the world, Changsun Wuji is in an extremely good mood.

However, he could not maintain this good mood for too long. When he heard Li Ke's award, his face changed slightly, because Li Ke's award had changed from what he knew.

The king of Shu, the governor of Yizhou, this is different from what they agreed on before.If it had been according to their original plan, Li Ke's reward should have been the king of Han and the governor of Yizhou.

There seems to be only one word difference between the governor of Yizhou and the governor of Yizhou, but they are far apart.The governor of Yizhou was in charge of the military affairs of the eight prefectures of Yimianjian, Jialing, Yamei, Mengqiong, and Qiong, while the governor of Yizhou was in charge of the military affairs of the eight prefectures of Yimianjian, Jialing, Yamei, Mengqiong, and Qiongqiong. State, the two statuses are simply not the same.

Now Li Ke's reward is similar to Li Shimin's second son Li Tai's King of Yue and Governor of Yangzhou.

Li Ke was young, so naturally he would not go far to be an official in Shu. Whether it is the governor of Yizhou or the governor of Yizhou has little influence on power, but it represents an attitude of Li Shimin, which cannot be guessed by Changsun Wuji .

While thinking to himself, Changsun Wuji quietly glanced at Du Ruhui's direction.

Du Ruhui is the Minister of Zhongshu, who is in charge of drafting the imperial decree. He is also Li Shimin's confidant, and the imperial edict canonized by Linxuan is written by Du Ruhui.

Changsun Wuji looked at Du Ruhui beside him calmly, only to see that Du Ruhui's expression was normal, with the slightest surprise on his face. Obviously, he knew about Li Ke's official title award long before the enthronement ceremony.

Although Changsun Wuji was familiar with Li Shimin's close servant, Chang Tu, Chang Tu was loyal to Li Shimin and knew very well how he should act as a person close to the emperor. Naturally, he would not tell Changsun Wuji what Li Shimin meant, but Changsun Wuji I can't figure it out myself.

In fact, the meaning of Li Shimin's awarding Li Ke was very simple, it was nothing more than guilt and compensation for Li Ke's meaning, but Changsun Wuji heard Li Ke's award in his ears, but felt a completely different flavor.

Changsun Wuji has been able to get to where he is today, relying on his thorough actions. Changsun Wuji knows very well that the Changsun family can have the current weather because of the protection of the imperial power. Good reliance, but this imperial decree made Changsun Wuji smell a dangerous smell, and suddenly became alert.

Previously, Changsun Wuji had been focusing on how to help Li Shimin win the crown prince and how to ascend to the throne of the Tang Dynasty, but now that Li Shimin had ascended the throne, his attention changed to how to help Li Chengqian sit firmly on the crown prince. Those concubine princes from Li Ke lived here.

At this time, when Changsun Wuji looked at Li Ke in front of him again, there was already a hint of gloom in his eyes, even though Li Ke was only an eight-year-old child at this time.

It took nearly two hours before and after Li Shimin's enthronement ceremony, and it didn't end until noon.

At this time, Li Ke naturally didn't know that he had been targeted by Changsun Wuji so early, he patted his sore legs lightly, and walked out of the hall.

As soon as Li Ke walked outside the hall, he saw a figure he was quite familiar with - General Zuo Wuwei Qin Shubao.

That day when Li Ke was assassinated at Xuanwu Gate, it was Qin Shubao who was guarding Xuanwu Gate at that time, and it was Qin Shubao who saved his life. It is said that Qin Shubao also had the grace to save Li Ke's life.

"General Qin stay." Li Ke quickly walked down the stone steps, calling softly.

Qin Shubao stopped when he heard someone calling his name behind him, and turned around to look. It turned out that the person calling him was actually Li Ke.

Although Li Ke is young, he is a prince after all, and he has a prince in his body, so he cannot be neglected.

Qin Shubao bent down and said: "The last general Qin Shubao pays homage to His Royal Highness the King of Shu."

Li Ke hurriedly stepped forward to help Qin Shubao up and said, "General Qin, please get up quickly."

Qin Shubao had never spoken to Li Ke before, he was supported by Li Ke, and asked Li Ke: "I wonder why Your Highness called the last general?"

Li Ke replied: "General Qin has saved my life, but I haven't been able to thank him face to face. Today I made a special trip to thank the general."

Qin Shubao said: "It is the duty of the junior general to guard the Xuanwu Gate. His Highness is injured, and the latter has already neglected his duty. How dare he be His Royal Highness to worship again."

Li Ke thanked Qin Shubao face to face, but Li Ke didn't think too much about it. In his opinion, it was just what should be done, but this scene has another meaning in the eyes of caring people.

Changsun Wuji, who was standing on the stone steps, saw this scene, and the gloom in his eyes deepened.
