Late Tang

On the first day of December, Dongchuan Jiedu envoy Gao Renhou, who occupied Chang'an, surrendered the city, and Li Jing led 20 Qin troops into Chang'an.

The 40 soldiers and horses in Sichuan were disarmed, and the [-] Chang'an people all welcomed them. After the surrender of the Qin army outside the city, the largest Qin army entry ceremony was held.Lin Wei was half a head behind Li Jing, and rode his horse on Suzaku Street, looking at the countless cheering people on both sides of the wide Royal Street, his heart was full of pride, how heartbroken he was when he was framed and forced to leave Chang'an.But who would have thought that, after more than ten years, looking back, he had set foot on the imperial street of Chang'an again as Conglong Yuanzuo of the new dynasty.

"Your Highness, we have won!"

In the Xingqing Palace, Zhaoyi and Li Jianrong were sitting in front of the bedroom door of the two young princes born to Li Ye, with a bright Autumn Water sword unsheathed across his lap.Li Ye came with staggering steps and a pale face.The young emperor who has always been good at writing is wearing a golden helmet today, holding a sword in his hand. He looked at Li Zhaoyi who was kneeling in front of the door, and said in a hoarse voice: "Li Jing has already led troops into Chang'an City!" Jianrong's whole body softened, her face was pale and frightened, she forced a smile, the two princes who had just woken up and ran out looked at their parents in bewilderment.

Zhang Chengye led a large group of guards from the Qin Army into the Xingqing Palace, and quickly replaced the original guards from the Sichuan Army.He went straight to the south inner back hall and came to Li Ye, who was leading a group of eunuchs and maids in armor and holding sharp swords. !"

Seeing Zhang Chengye waving his hands to send many offerings, Li Ye was very polite and did not act presumptuously, his face relaxed, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and all the eunuchs and court ladies who were urgently armed with true feelings also all stood up. A long sigh of relief.

Li Jing who entered the city did not immediately enter the blocked Xingqing Palace, but directly set up the Xingyuan in the Daming Palace that had been mostly burned down.

"How to deal with Gao Renhou, Li Quanzhong, He Lianduo, Tuoba Sigong and other feudal marshals, and how to deal with Nannei?" An Guogong Lin Wei asked.

Zeng Yuanyu said: "Cut the grass but not the roots. There will be endless troubles!"

"It's good to cut the weeds and eradicate the roots, but we must also avoid expansion. Although Chang'an has been won now, nearly half of the world is still unsettled, and many feudal towns still have considerable power. Expansion at this time will only cause too deep resentment. Your Highness should implement it." Benevolent government, and light and dust, tolerance is great." Zheng Congxuan said.

Li Jing nodded solemnly upon hearing this.The Qin army already has an absolute advantage. At this time, there is no need to use severe measures to deter the world.What is needed is the atmosphere and benevolence, so as to absorb and merge those unsettled forces, instead of pushing the other party to the opposite side of oneself.

"The Prime Minister is right. The general trend of the world has been determined. Now we only cut trees, not grass. Those who dare to block the road will be mercilessly crushed, but if they do not directly block the road, we can stay. Li Quanzhong, Gao Renhou, He Lianduo, Bai Yicheng, Tuoba Sigong, Dongfang Kui, etc. should be rewarded for abandoning the dark and turning to the bright. These six soldiers will be given food, wine, meat and clothing. Let the teachers in the army teach everyone well. After the spring of next year, the weather will improve At that time, they will be given travel expenses and severance pay, so that they can return to their hometowns."

The soldiers and horses of the Six Divisions must not be kept, but they cannot be dismissed immediately. What Li Jing means is to stay and carry out some ideological reform first, and then let them go back after this critical period.Fanzhen generals.Without soldiers, there is no capital to resist him.

"Should Chen Jingzhong and others be eliminated?"

"It's good to be imprisoned temporarily." Li Jing replied after a moment of contemplation. Gao Renhou surrendered, and the Sichuan army suffered a great loss, but Tian Lingzi still occupied Sanchuan after all, so Li Jing had to consider the consequences.He planned to give Tian Lingzi another chance, and he was not in a hurry to deal with them too violently.I thought about it.It can still deter Tian Lingzi and force him to surrender.

The most important thing is the disposal of Chang'an emperor and hundreds of officials. Li Jing ordered all the old officials in Chang'an, members of the Li family royal family, and court personnel.They are all temporarily arranged in Xingqing Palace. As long as they don't do anything too outrageous, Qin Jun doesn't have to deal with them first.

Li Jing let out a long breath, "Get ready, three days later, welcome the emperor back to Yanjing!"

Li Ye stood in front of Li Jing with a complicated expression on his face. Li Jing was wearing the dazzling golden armor he wore when he entered the city, and he hadn't replaced it yet.He sat a little tired in the main hall of Daming Palace, looking at the pale, lonely and helpless young emperor in front of him.

"Chang'an has gone through several wars, the palace city is dilapidated, the people's livelihood is poor, and supplies are scarce. Your Majesty and the imperial court are requested to move to Hebei, the capital Yanjing."

Li Ye's lips trembled, "The capital, Yanjing, is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, or your capital, Li Jing!"

"Of course it's the capital of Tang Dynasty, the brand new Tang Dynasty, the brand new capital!" Li Jing replied.

"There's a brand new emperor!" Li Ye said in his heart.After a long silence, Li Jing waited for his reply without any haste.If possible, Li Ye is of course unwilling to leave Chang'an for Hebei and stay in Chang'an. Anyway, there are still a few towns in Guanzhong that are not attached to Li Jing.But Hebei, that is Li Jing's base camp, once in Hebei, there is really no possibility of turning over.But he knew he had no choice.As the Son of Heaven, Gao Renhou had already achieved his goal when Gao Renhou broke through Chang'an.Li Jing still called him His Majesty until now, just for the sake of looking good on the surface.

He can't change anything, he has already lost this world.

"I also want to thank King Qin for saving King Qin." There is another sentence that only I can hear, "I also want to thank you for not killing me!" In the latter sentence, what kind of emotion is it? No one knows.

Li Jing was silent. Up to now, everyone knew everything well, and it would be meaningless to say it too clearly.Li Jing didn't do anything to the royal family of the Li family, it was because he didn't want to.It was also because Li Shi had long lost his prestige in the world, and Li Jing expected that they would not be able to make waves, so keeping them was considered a good look.But this has to be clear to Li Shi himself. If they don't appreciate it, then Li Jing doesn't mind getting dirty.

Li Jing asked Zhang Chengye to send Li Ye back to Xingqing Palace, and retreated into the apse to disarm, change clothes, wash his face and hands, and take a bath.

In the side hall, Li Dezhao and other eighteen brothers who had already been trained in the training camp knelt and sat in the hall, waiting for Li Jing.When Li Jing came out of the shower and changed clothes, the group of sons who had already been beaten in the training camp cheered up and looked up at Li Jing together, their eyes full of admiration.

"I'm waiting to meet my father!" Li Dezhao took the lead in saluting.

Li Jing waved his hand, "It looks good, not bad. In the past six months, I have transferred you from the training camp to the front line. It seems to be a correct decision to let them see the war with their own eyes. Today, I, Qin Junbing, entered Chang'an, and you must also How touched. Please remember one thing, it is easy to conquer the world, but it is difficult to govern the world, and mountains and rivers are not permanent. Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it!"

On the fourth day of December in the first year of Zhenlong, Li Ye issued an imperial edict to give Li Jing the greatest power, fake Huang Yue, and add nine tins.Pingzhang's military and state affairs are important, the regent supervises the military and state affairs, the sword is on the palace, and the praise is not famous.

Nine tins, which flourished in the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty where the imperial power was the most prosperous, were originally nine honorary items bestowed by the emperor to ministers.Most ministers refused to accept it.

But since the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang.Cao Cao and Sima Zhao all accepted it; later, the founding emperors of Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen dynasties all received "Nine Tin", so "Nine Tin" became a standard procedure to replace it.Adding Jiuxi, that is, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty announced to the world that the country has changed hands.

The same day as the imperial edict was announced.One hundred thousand elite armored soldiers of the Qin army escorted Li Jing and a group of civil and military officials back to Yanjing, Li Ye and other members of the Li family emperor, as well as the officials of the Chang'an court, as well as the newly descended Tiande, Zhenwu, Dingnan, and Baoda , Chang'an, Luoyang, Tonghua, Jinshang, Shanguo, Hezhong, Heyang, Hedong, Zhaoyi and other towns returning to the army returned with them.

The first day of the first month.

Li Ye announced the edict of abdication.

The largest palace in the Forbidden Palace, the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"If the emperor said: I would like to consult with the king of Qin, the commander-in-chief of the army and horses of the world. Every time I look at the ancient books, I start with Yao and Shun, and they are covered with the code of abdication, which hangs infinity. Therefore, it is named Mount Tai. The father of Zen and Liang, it is a little bit Taoist 72 monarchs know that the world’s most important people are not unique to one surname. Since ancient times, kings and emperors of the Ming Dynasty have been anxious and troubled, and they are anxious and anxious. They sit and wait for the day. Xuanyuan is not unknown, Fang Xun is not unholy, and I still want to swim in Gushe and rest in the imperial court. I have been counted and found the end, and I will thank you for a long time. I belong to the lonely one who rules all directions! After Yizu, I am lucky. The dynasty is chaotic, misfortunes rise in stages, and the government gradually loses its image. The sky is broken, the sea is flowing, the four disciplines are here, and there is no shelter for all living things. It is almost chaotic, who will be the bottom. The boy, Guangdong in his childhood, will continue to decline Xu. Is it possible to defend Hongji? Only Wang Mingsheng is bowing, embodying Shangzhe. Flying the gods and martial arts, defeating the Ding District Xia, making twenty great achievements, and only writing books. Going over the Yinshan Mountains in the north, crossing the miasma sea in the south, and reaching the east Jieshi, Xiji quicksand, the relationship between pregnant and living, no one is not happy to be attached to. The ignorance of the ignorant, the danger is saved. Today, observe the astronomy and the wishes of the people below. This is the ultimate time of Tude, and it is a sign of gold. Chen. During the past ten years, comets have been seen three times, new ones have been made and old ones removed, and there are obvious signs. The place where the praise belongs belongs to Ruide. Today, the doctor Yin Qing Guanglu, who holds the festival, is sent to guard the Zhongshu servant and make peace with the Zhongshumen. Zheng Congxuan and other emperors are inferior to the throne. They are in the play! The calendar of heaven is in your hands, and if you hold it, the fortune of heaven will die forever. The king will only show great gifts and enjoy it to all nations, so as to honor the destiny of heaven."

On the main hall, Zheng Congxuan held Li Ye's abdication edict in his hand and read it aloud.In the hall, civil and military gathered to witness this sacred moment together.

In a sense, since Han Zen was located in Cao Wei, this is the No. 11 Zen edict.Eastern Han Chan Cao Wei, Cao Wei Zen is Western Jin, Eastern Jin Zen and Song, Song Zen is Southern Qi, Southern Qi Zen is Liang, Liang Zen is Chen, Eastern Wei Zen is Northern Qi, Western Wei Zen is Northern Zhou, Northern Zhou Zen is Sui, Sui Zen is Tang.

Today, Tang Chan is located in Li Jing.

This is the orthodoxy of imperial power that countless people are pursuing in the era of imperial power.

Li Ye blamed himself for the crime, announced his abdication and prepared the abdication Baoshan, which is a prayer and sacrificial text, known in history as a book of offerings and a treasure book, and is a necessary procedure for the entire abdication ceremony.

Finally, the new emperor Li Jing issued an edict to ascend the throne.

The Xuanzhi official read the new emperor's enthronement edict outside the Meridian Gate.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict said: The new emperor ascends the throne, and the world is amnesty. Shandong, Hebei, and Beiping provinces are exempted from one-year land tax, those outside the Guan are exempted from two-year land tax, and Hedong, Henan, and Guanzhong are exempted from two-year land tax. Two years of service. The rest of Shannan, Huainan, Liangzhe, Lingnan, Sanchuan, Eyue, Jingnan, Jiangxi, and Hunan will be exempted from land taxes and miscellaneous labor for three years."

The new dynasty has a new atmosphere, and even the format of imperial edicts has changed. At the beginning of the edict, it is changed to Fengtian Chengyun Emperor.In Minghuang's edict, according to the writing habit of flat lifting, "heaven" and "emperor" must be written at the top of the new line to show respect.

The imperial edict of the new emperor enthroned the world, reduced taxes and miscellaneous labor, and rewarded all officials at the same time.

The officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the people in Chengtianmen Square were excited and happy, but they were also a little surprised to find that the country name of the new dynasty was not Qin King's original title Qin, nor Qi from the place where it was born, nor Yan or Liao.

The name of the new dynasty still used Tang.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the new emperor ascended the throne, sacrificed to heaven in the southern suburbs, changed to Yuanlongji, and lowered Li Ye as Marquis of Shun'an!
