The third day of the third month of March, the legend is the birthday of the Yellow Emperor, so since ancient times, there has been 'February 2, the dragon raises its head; On March 3, Xuanyuan was born', and for today's Fu Han Army, it will also usher in a new beginning.

Jiangning City, has now been changed to Nanjing City, on the third day of March ushered in the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, and will also become the day of Ningyu ascending the throne and calling the emperor, countless people from Huguang and Jiangxi Anhui have poured into the new Nanjing City on this day, they have a little enthusiasm on their faces, hoping to see the Son of Heaven ascending the throne on this day.

Outside the Zhengyang Gate of Nanjing City, the mound was renovated, here was originally the place where Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, built the mound in this place, and decreed that the heaven and earth would be enshrined together, that is, the worship activities of heaven and earth were combined, all held in the mound, so this place was the most critical place to worship heaven and earth in the Ming Dynasty at that time.

When Zhu Yuanzhang built the mound, he built a total of two floors, with nine steps on each side, and the table top and the foot of the platform were made of glazed bricks, surrounded by glazed railings. There are two walls around the outside of the mound, the inner circle is outside, which is in line with the meaning of "the sky is round and the place is round", and there are also star gates on all sides of the wall. And in the mound, there is also a temple of hope, and there are also ancillary buildings such as the palace, the bell tower, the kitchen and the library in the west of it.

After the Jingjing, Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing, and in the following hundreds of years, even after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the Beijing division has been stationed in Beijing, so that the status of the original Nanzhili has plummeted, and later it was changed to Jiangning, and Yuanqiu has gradually declined since then, and has lost its glory as it was then.

But this time, Jiangning was renamed Nanjing again, and the high-level of the Fu Han Army also moved to Nanjing collectively, just leaving a set of people in Wuchang, Nanjing's round mound naturally re-entered the field of vision of the top level of the Fu Han Army, and the restoration work for the round mound was also carried out very early, and now it is naturally almost built.

Of course, the area around the mound has been heavily guarded by the Fu Han army as early as ten days ago, which can be called the density of three steps and one person, except for the relevant craftsmen, no one can enter the mound at this time, and the person in charge of the entire guard work is the Governor of Ningyu Guard Brigade, of course, it has now been renamed and called the Royal Guard Brigade.

Thousands of soldiers stood at their posts in brand-new uniforms and with flintlock pistols on their faces, their faces solemn and agitated, the scene they had always dreamed of, but now it was finally coming true.

I have to say that the people of this era need an emperor in their hearts, if there is no emperor, they will feel panicked, no matter how mediocre and incompetent the emperor is, but in the hearts of the people, they will always feel that it is the traitor who has deceived the emperor - more than 2,000 years of brainwashing, so that the supremacy of the monarchy is firmly engraved in the hearts of the people.

Therefore, after the rebellion of the Fu Han army, being the emperor is a common idea of everyone up and down, and no matter who is the emperor - only someone will feel at ease, and now that there is an emperor, the hearts of the soldiers of the Fu Han army are also put down a stone.

But when everyone was happy, Xu Ang, the deputy commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, who was responsible for the security work in the outer perimeter of Nanjing, has now become an ant on a hot pot, you must know that this so-called Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division was established less than half a month, although it commanded more than 8,000 soldiers, but the security of the entire Nanjing City up and down is pressed on the head of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and it is not possible to produce a basket.

The problem is that if it is okay on weekdays, but the current Nanjing City is going to hold an enthronement ceremony, and more than 100,000 people have poured into Nanjing City, if the secret spies of the Qing court are mixed in, deliberately sabotaging and even injuring some relevant dignitaries, then his Xu Ang's ten heads are not enough to cut off, which is really worrying.

"Let me make it clear to each of you, there are many people, but we must not mess around, there are a few things that must be guaranteed! If someone is suspected of bringing swords, firearms, bows and grenades into Nanjing, they will all be taken directly! ”

Xu Ang's eyes were a little bloodshot, and there was a peculiar smell exuding from his whole body, he hadn't had a good rest for three consecutive days, and he had almost measured the entire city of Nanjing with his feet in the past few days.

"The commander has an order, Lord Ning, as long as we pass safely this time, each of you, remember, everyone will get three times the salary! If something goes wrong with one of you, he will die, I will die, and you will die! ”

Coercion and temptation, after all, all the soldiers patrolling the city were beaten up, they were originally transferred from the battlefield, many people have not lost that sharpness and alertness, so in these days of patrolling, a lot of suspicious people have also been found, set up in the south of the city of the five cities of the Soldiers and Horses prison, has been full of prisoners.

The soldiers and horses of the five cities inside and outside the city are the first line of defense, and the Fu Han army near the mound is the second line of defense, so the shadow is the third line of defense, and many shadow agents in civilian clothes are also in the crowd, observing every move around them, if they see someone acting abnormally, they will not alarm the other party, but they will keep a firm eye on it to ensure that they are under control.

In addition, the King of Chu's personal guard battalion was responsible for protecting the emperor's strength this time, and Ning Si personally served as the battalion commander of the Chu King's personal guard battalion, with hundreds of soldiers of the Fu Han Army wearing the big red military uniforms, the purpose was to be able to block the cold guns and arrows shot from the shadows for Ning Yu at a critical time.

Of course, in addition to these garrison forces, the cadets of the Eagle Battalion and the Lecture Hall have also gathered in their own locations, and they are controlled by the Royal Praetorian Guard Brigade, and they also assume a part of the security force in it, especially to completely isolate the people on the periphery to ensure peace and security.

The people looked at this dense array of soldiers of the Fu Han Army, although they couldn't tell which troops these people belonged to, but when they saw their young and steady faces, they couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

In the crowded crowd, there are a few people who look quite eye-catching, the first one is an old man with gray hair, he looks at the scene in front of him, but he looks very excited, there is also an old man next to him, but his expression is more indifferent.

"If my grandfather could see a scene like today, I am afraid that he would have no regrets about dying."

Another old man sighed in a low voice, "If Mr. Lizhou sees the so-called "King James Constitution", I am afraid that he will be more worried. ”

The Mr. Lizhou that these two people talked about is Huang Zongxi, and the two people who are talking are also very extraordinary, the old man called Wan Chengxun, is the grandson-in-law of Huang Zongxi, and the nephew of the great Confucian Wan Sitong, since he was a child, he has spread the name of poetry to the world, and before Huang Zongxi's death, he also left a letter to him.

"In short, you can die at this age; Although there is no good or evil in a reflexive life, it can die; Before the ancestors died, they were a little unapologetic, but they could die; The writings of a lifetime may not be exhaustive, and they are not expected to be inferior to the ancient masters, but they can die. In this way, four can die, and there is really no pain in death! ”

Now that decades have passed, after Wan Chengxun heard that the Fu Han army had risen, he had great curiosity, and when the Fu Han army was about to be proclaimed emperor, he came from the countryside in order to see the situation of the Fu Han army with his own eyes.

And another old man beside him is also an unusual person, is a native of Haining County, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, the surname is Shenxing, as early as the forty-second year of Kangxi, he was a jinshi, and later was awarded the Hanlin Academy, and after only ten years of being an official, he returned to the city after begging, and Wan Chengxun was a friend of the same generation, so he followed him to this Nanjing city.

Hearing that Cha Shenxing was noncommittal to the "King James Constitution of the Great Chu" of the Han Army, Wan Chengxun didn't think about it, and said in a low voice: "Grandfather is not an official for the Qing court, but naturally he is the righteous breath in his heart. ”

Cha Shenxing was still a little hostile to the Fu Han Army in his heart, maybe he was still grateful for the reason why the Qing court had done it to his officials, so he subconsciously felt that the Fu Han Army was rebellious, and this time he came with his old friend, and he didn't have some thoughts about seeing the jokes of the Fu Han Army.

"Brother Yuguang, this "King James Constitution" is by no means a trivial matter, blindly greedy for the benefits of businessmen, but ignoring the gentleman's subtle words, it is really ridiculous, you and I can't see any fame when we come here today, taking advantage of the fact that there are few people out of the city right now, let's leave here as soon as possible."

Cha Shenxing wanted to leave against the crowd, but Wan Chengxun on the side shook his head.

"What the Han Army has done, whether it is good or bad, the old man wants to stay quietly, and the old man is now sixty, I'm afraid he doesn't have much time to live, stay and see more, and talk to my grandfather more in the future."

Cha Shenxing sighed, "Brother Yuguang, the old man really understands your thoughts, but what the Fu Han Army is doing at the moment, which one is for my gentry?" We're not all the way to them! ”

"Hehe, is this a person all the way, after all, I have to see it to know, but I regret it, now that the north is cold, I still need to think twice before doing things......"

After this conversation, the two also understood each other's thoughts, as the so-called difference in ambition does not conspire with each other, and now they will leave it at that.

But after a while, the day was coming, and a group of soldiers in brocade clothes poured out of the city, their leather boots stepped on the ground, making a crisp footsteps, and more officials of the Fu Han Army in red clothes also poured out from inside, they were the officials who presided over the ceremony this time, announcing that the enthronement ceremony was coming.

After another moment, more than a dozen old men wearing the Nine Chapters of the Ming Dynasty came out of it, with nine crowns on their heads and jade gui in their hands, and began to walk slowly towards the mound.

If people who don't understand etiquette may feel inexplicable when they see it, in fact, these people are some of the Ming clans that the current Fu Han Army has finally collected, although this bloodline is so far away that it can't be farther, but after all, it is still a little bit of kinship, and it is enough to hold this enthronement ceremony.

The leading few Zhu Ming clans stood in several columns, and began to pray for heaven and earth, and they were also chanting some complicated prayers in their mouths, all of which they are doing at present is naturally to show that the mandate of heaven has returned to the Han people, of course, as the heir of the Ming Dynasty, the current Dachu will also inherit the mandate of heaven and become the orthodoxy of the world.

In fact, this step is equivalent to the fact that Da Chu directly denied the legitimacy of the Qing court, but directly inherited the Ming Dynasty, and the current Qing Dynasty naturally became a pseudo-Qing. In this era, the significance of this step is very important, and only after this step can we explain the destiny of heaven.

Of course, for those people and officers and soldiers who didn't know much about it, they were a little confused, and they couldn't tell what was going on, so they could only watch the ceremony with a blank face.

"Since ancient times, emperors have ruled the world, all of which are in China to control Yidi, and Yidi to serve China, and I have not heard of Yidi living in China and controlling the world. Since the Song Zuo tilted, the north of the Yuan Dynasty was dominated in China, within the four seas, and he did not surrender, this is not manpower, it is really a gift from God......"

After the prayer was recited, these Ming clans did not go down immediately, but began to read the "Fengtian Seeking Yuan Northern Expedition Text" three hundred and fifty-five years ago, and at that time it was also a person who stood here to read this majestic Northern Expedition Text, and then raised the army to the Northern Expedition and dominated the world.

It's just that now there are some people who feel that everything is wrong, especially for those of the former Ming clan, it is even more tearful, although the Ming Empire is over, but in their hearts, there is still a Han country.

"In the past, the Ming Dynasty undertook the mandate of heaven, expelled Hu Lu, restored China, established the Chen Ji, and relieved the people. The cycle of heaven repeats, and my Chinese mandate of heaven is inherited by those who have the mandate of heaven, expel Hulu, and restore China! ”

With the last words, the former Ming clan pushed this enthronement ceremony to a climax, and everyone really felt this sense of sacredness, the scene of the year and the scene of today seem to coincide at this moment, and Da Chu's body is bound to be covered with a layer of divine brilliance.

"There is no better place than Ming...... It seems that there is one more Chu to be added today. ”

Many scholars had this sentence flowing in their hearts, and their hearts seemed to be clenched to death, wanting to shout and cheer, and even more wanted to kneel on the ground and shout long live.......

At this moment, Ning Yu wore the twelve chapters and began to slowly move towards the mound, the so-called twelve chapters are embroidered with the sun, moon, and dragon on the shoulders, the stars and mountains on the back, the fire, the Chinese worm, and the Zongyi on the cuffs, and the weaving algae, pink rice, yellow, and yellow on the waist.

Looking at Ning Yu, who was advancing, everyone was silent, their faces turned red, and then they quickly shouted.

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

Ning Yu stood on the Temple of Heaven, glanced around at the people in the audience, and took a deep breath.

"The destiny of heaven is in me, and I am the emperor!"
