Wei and Jin Cooks

Beigong Chun used his clairvoyance to confirm that the person coming was Tuoba Yilu when he was in the camp. He also brought many familiar generals with him.

Bringing so many capable people to the border for no reason, even if he had no other intentions, I wouldn't believe it even if he beat Bei Gongchun to death.

However, he also knew that the domestic situation was complicated at this time. Although he was loyal to the Jin Dynasty, the general was also very kind to him, and he couldn't choose which side to stand on.

 But the emperor did not let him choose, and Zhao Hanzhang did not force him to choose.

He simply covered his ears and blindfolded his eyes, pretending that he knew nothing and just guarded the border.

Huang An and Linghu Sheng both said that it was better to be still than to move at this time, and they thought stability was the priority, so when they found Tuoba Yilu appeared on the opposite side, they did not order troops to seize the opportunity to capture the thief first. Instead, he handed over the command of the army to Linghu Sheng, and then led Huang An to see Tuoba Yilu.

Bei Gongchun slowly reined in his horse, stopped a hundred steps away, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I wonder why your Majesty is here?"

Tuoba Yilu tightened his grip on the reins and said, "This is the Kingdom of Dai. It is only natural that I come here to patrol. But why did General Beigong cross the border?"

Bei Gongchun snorted coldly: "What's the border line? The Kingdom of Dai is also the territory of our Great Jin Dynasty. King Dai, don't forget who granted you the throne. You are the King of Dai Jin, and you also have the responsibility of guarding the land."

Tuoba Yilu gritted his teeth, "Then why did General Beigong send troops to the border of our country? Since we are a family, could it be that the court cannot trust me as the vassal king and wants to take back the fiefdom?"

"The king is overthinking. I'm just training my troops as usual," Beigong Chun said, "I'm taking advantage of the leisure time to train my troops before the autumn harvest, so that the swords and guns in the hands of the soldiers will not rust."

“General Beigong is loyal, but he doesn’t know who he is loyal to,” Tuoba Yilu said sarcastically: “Is it the country’s name, Jin, or General Zhao?”

It's okay that he didn't mention this, but when he mentioned Bei Gongchun, he became irritated and said angrily: "You don't care who I am loyal to, I only care about protecting the country. As long as I am here, no one can take a step south through Bingzhou!" "

 This is the strategic importance of Bingzhou. As long as Bingzhou is defended, attacks from the north will basically be blocked.

Bei Gongchun and Tuoba Yilu broke up unhappy. He watched them leave and turned to Huang An and said, "Scatter all our scouts out, keep an eye on the Xianbei tribe, and send people to contact the people in Xinping City. Tuo As long as Ba Yilu dares to go south, he will immediately ask Tuoba Liuxiu to conquer Pingcheng. After all, he is the eldest son, and the position of the heir apparent of Dai Kingdom belongs to him."

 Huang An responded.

Tuoba Yilu returned to the camp, and all his anger was poured out on Tuoba Liuxiu, "You are a traitor, you are a traitor!"

“How dare he disobey the order? If someone comes, please hurry up and tell him to come to me immediately!”

The soldiers were about to retreat after receiving the order, but were stopped by a general, "Your Majesty, do we still want to fight against Bingzhou?"

 Tuoba Yi and Lu Tianren fought. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said: "Retreat!"

Since the fight cannot be won, we should find another way to consolidate the power and status of Daiguo.

He lowered his eyes. He could no longer delay the appointment of the heir to the country. Once Zhao Hanzhang got his feet firmly on the ground, even with her promise, it would be difficult to establish him again.

Didn’t they say there was no evidence that Tuoba Liuxiu was unfilial?

 He will give it to them immediately.

Tuoba Yi and Lu Cai retreated, and Zhao Hanzhang received the telegram that night.

 She did not speak, but casually handed the telegram to Zhao Yunxin for her to be included in the register.

 “Where is Liu Kun? How did he react?”

Yuan Li said: "Liu Kun stopped the banquet and has not gone out for three days, but he wrote letters to the ancestral governor and the Yuzhou governor Zhao."

Liu Kun also has a radio station, but he has not used it. Although he still does not understand how the radio station transmits information, this does not prevent him from questioning its safety.

He felt that confidential words could not be spoken over the radio. Not only the people who sent and received the telegram would know about it, but he suspected that people who were not in contact with him could also hear his telegram.

 So he still chose to write a letter.

Yuan Li said: "I asked someone to secretly change the letter at the post station, make a copy and seal it back intact. The copy will be delivered tomorrow."

  Zhao Hanzhang: ...She didn’t expect this.

  Zhao Hanzhang rubbed his temples and did not say that what he did was wrong or right.

Yuan Li took a careful look at her expression and knew that he had made no mistake this time. He felt a little more comfortable and continued to report the matter, "Today, Your Majesty went to the observatory and asked Guo Pu to choose an auspicious day. Guo Pu said that it is better to choose a time than to hit the sun. Tomorrow will be the best day. day."

Tomorrow is the first day of the seventh lunar month, the day of the imperial meeting, and the officials of the previous dynasty will line up outside the palace. It is indeed a good day.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I understand."

 Early the next morning, no matter how calm Zhao Hanzhang was, he couldn't help but get up early, carefully tidy up his court clothes and put on them.

Fu Tinghan noticed that she was wearing a new court dress, so after thinking about it, she took off her half-old court dress and put on the one she had just made this season.

 The couple couldn't help but smile at each other, and then went to court together.

 Rarely, the emperor also put on new clothes of this season. This time, he came out holding his jade seal.

 The edict for the Zen position was still written by him in his own hand and was handed over to Guo Pu to read. He told the world through Guo Pu's mouth that Zhao Hanzhang's ascension to the throne was recognized by heaven.

This time, Zhao Hanzhang knelt in the main hall and declined again. After the young emperor insisted, he reached out to accept the imperial edict and said to the young emperor: "I am scared, but your majesty has entrusted me with it, and I will complete it even if I die."

Zhao Shen suppressed the excitement in his heart and was the first to kneel down with a thump. He said loudly: "Your Majesty, welcome the new emperor."

Hundred officials knelt down and shouted in unison: "I, my ministers, would like to welcome the new emperor."

The little emperor was in a hurry and wanted to kneel down. Zhao Hanzhang stretched out his hand to hold him back and stopped him from kneeling down.

She held the imperial edict in one hand and held the little emperor in the other. She turned around and looked at the courtiers kneeling in the palace. She felt that the sky was high and the sea was wide, and she could fly high by herself.

She said: "Get up!" The officials responded and stood up slowly.

Zhao Hanzhang pulled the little emperor up the steps. When he saw the jade seal on the table, the little emperor remembered it and hurriedly picked it up and handed it to her, "General, I will leave this country to you from now on."

 Zhao Hanzhang took it solemnly, "Your Majesty, don't worry."

The little emperor had tears in his eyes. He was very relieved that he would no longer have to get up before dawn to endorse the book, memorize the book, and then go to court.

Ji Yuan stepped forward and said: "A country cannot be without a king for a day. If the new emperor is elected and ascends the throne on an auspicious day, the people of the world will be safe."

The little emperor nodded repeatedly, "Guo Pu is here, let him divine a lucky day on the spot."

 Everyone looked at Guo Pu.

Guo Pu:…

“There are quite a few auspicious days, but everyone, the auspicious days for taking the throne should also refer to the country’s name. I wonder what the country’s name is for the new dynasty?”

 Everyone went to see Zhao Hanzhang again.

Zhao Hanzhang paused for a moment and then said: "Everyone in the world thinks that the emperor is the chosen one, but in my opinion, the gods in heaven may not always pay attention to the people. The emperor is the parent of the people. Only if he does not forget to love the people, will the people treat their children as the parents." Act filial piety. Only when the ruler is virtuous and the people are harmonious can the world be stable. This is the will of the people."

Zhao Hanzhang said word for word: "The will of the people is better than the will of God! And the whole country, whether they are Han, Xiongnu, Jie, Qianghu, Xianbei or Baiyue, are all descendants of the Yanhuang tribe, so I take the name of my ancestors Decide on the country’s name—Hua!”

Ji Yuan's eyes were bright: "The "Spring and Autumn Genealogy" records that Hua Xu gave birth to a boy named Fuxi and a girl named Nuwa, who are the ancestors of the people. "Guoyu. Jinyu" also records that Xi Shaodian married the Youxi family and gave birth to the Yellow Emperor. , Emperor Yan, great-grandmother Hua Xu."

When the courtiers heard this, most of them thought that the country name "Hua" was good, but some raised different opinions, "The general is the king of Yu, why not use the country name Yu?"

How can Yu compare with Hua?

Zhao Hanzhang has long been eyeing the word "hua". If it weren't for the ancestor Xia, she would be different from her ancestors. She thinks the word "xia" is not bad.

More humane: "Perhaps we should take the surname of the general, how about the State of Zhao?"

Most of the Zhao family’s disciples in the palace thought it was a good idea and raised their hands in approval.

 Zhao Hanzhang asked Guo Pu, "What do Mr. Guo think?"

Guo Pudao: "The country's name is Hua."

 He paused and then said: "Hua, belongs to water."

 He glanced at the young emperor and did not say anything more, but none of the officials were vegetarians, so he quickly thought of the five elements.

 Hua belongs to water, while Jin belongs to fire, and water overcomes fire. This word is wonderful.

Yu belongs to earth, and earth and fire are interdependent, but if the new dynasty destroys the old dynasty, there is no need for them to interrelate, okay?

Zhao is a fire person. When two fires are fighting, both sides may lose, which is not appropriate. In this way, Hua is really the most suitable.

With Guo Pu standing in line, the name of China was decided.

 The next step is to choose an auspicious day.

Guo Pu said that he needed to fast for three days and then perform divination.

 Zhao Hanzhang didn’t know whether to believe it or not, but he agreed anyway.

Hundred officials withdrew from the court, but Ji Yuan and other confidants stayed behind. Zhao Hanzhang also deliberately left Xun Fan and Wei An behind.

The little emperor stood in front of the dragon throne and wanted to step down, but Zhao Hanzhang did not let him go. Instead, he asked him pleasantly, "What title does your Majesty want? Do you want to live somewhere else or in the capital?"

The little emperor raised his heart and said cautiously: "I, I listen to the general...your majesty."

Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang frowned and seemed distressed, he immediately said: "I, I, I just want to live a happy life."

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to change your name. You can share my name with me."

He then asked tentatively: "What do you think of the title King An?"

 The little emperor nodded immediately, "Very good."

Zhao Hanzhang asked again, "Your Majesty, would you like to stay in the capital? Or is there another place you want to live permanently?"

The little emperor naturally wanted to stay away from Zhao Hanzhang and the political center, but he was too young. In his limited memory, only Luoyang's life was the best.

When he was in Yanzhou, he could hardly go out and lived a very miserable life, not to mention the experience of escaping from Yanzhou. Although he had been to many places, he was homeless and his life was not easy at all.

 So when he thought about it, the place he was most familiar with and wanted to live the most was Luoyang.

The little emperor's eyes were slightly moist. He recalled the scene of running in his garden when he was a child. He asked: "I wonder if Prince Wu's Mansion is still there?"

 The little emperor’s father is King Wu, and he lived in Prince Wu’s Mansion in Luoyang until he was seven years old.

Zhao Hanzhang understood it as soon as he heard it, and immediately said: "I will immediately have people repair it and change the Prince Wu's Mansion to Prince An's Mansion. After the repairs are completed, Your Majesty can move in."

See you tomorrow
