Chapter 1122: The General Assembly
Cui Dalang stood still, looked up at the six gilded characters in the Great Hall of Yixing Society in front of him, and couldn't help but shed tears again, he reached into his arms, took out a piece of cloth, and slowly unfolded it, which were names written in blood. These are all brothers who died in battle with him defending the lonely castle, and today, Cui Dalang brought them all. He held up the names and muttered, "Look, brethren, we have won, and today I am bringing you with me to our own convention." ”
He held the white cloth and strode in.
In front of him, countless delegates, including high-ranking officials and dignitaries, consciously stopped when they saw this white cloth and made way for him. Li Han, Li Peng, and the Mo Dao guards who were guarding the entrance of the gate held their knives in both hands, raised them to their chests, and bowed their heads to salute these dead heroes.
The design of the Great Hall is extremely exquisite, and when you enter through the main gate, the whole arrangement of chairs is in an arc, one row of chairs, one row of long tables, and then the next step, another row of chairs, a row of long tables, and then downward. At the very front of the General Assembly Hall was a high platform, on which there was nothing but a bright red carpet.
In order to allow every corner of the Great Hall, which can seat thousands of people, to hear the speech on the high platform, Tu Hu, Zhu Yi and a group of craftsmen have taken great pains to decorate the entire house, all of which follow this. In the end, as long as the speaker can be as loud as possible, then using some of their special designs can ensure that everyone can hear what the people on the stage are saying.
Each table is covered with a blue tablecloth, on which is placed the nameplate of each delegation, and when you enter the inside, you only need to sit down according to the position indicated on the nameplate.
After Qian Biao sat down, he looked at the high platform in front of him, and suddenly understood something, and turned his head to see that behind him, it was Ding Jian, the governor of Hubei, who turned his head at the moment and said in a low voice: "Ding Du, on the platform later, it should be Your Majesty, right?" Where will Your Majesty speak to us? ”
Ding Jian nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Qian Biao was a little apprehensive: "But now our position is much higher than Your Majesty, isn't this a little disrespectful?" ”
Ding Jian smiled slightly: "These settings must have been approved by His Majesty, since Your Majesty doesn't care, why do you insist on these false courtesies?" ”
"Yes!" Qian Biao nodded: "Our Majesty is indeed different. ”
From which day, in his speech on the Zen platform, Qian Biao had a deeper understanding of Emperor Li Ze.
As he spoke, the entire Great Hall was full, except for the front row, which was still empty.
As a side door opened inside, Zhang Hui, Gongsun Changming, Cao Xin and other officials of the six ministries and Jiuqing rushed out, and when they sat down in front of the first row of seats, the noisy hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone stood up from their seats in unison and looked at the place where these people had just come out.
Sure enough, a moment later, Li Ze's figure appeared somewhere.
He walked straight to the top of the platform, stood still, and looked at everyone present.
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
Here, it was inconvenient to bow and bow, but everyone bowed and crossed their hands and saluted Li Ze on the high platform.
Li Ze smiled and looked at the thousands of delegates in this hall, these people were the countless tentacles he stretched out to this vast territory, and it was precisely because of their existence that he could effectively rule and manage this country. It is precisely because of these people that it is possible for him to convey his ideas little by little to all directions of the huge empire in the sky. Perhaps, to accomplish this, it is not something that can be done in a short time, but it is already on the road.
No matter how long the road is, there will always be a day when it will be finished.
No matter how difficult things are, there will always be a day when they can be done.
As long as generation after generation perseveres and unswervingly walks on the right path, even if there are many difficulties and obstacles along the way, there will always be a time to pass.
Don't be afraid to go the wrong way, make a mistake, change it back. Don't be afraid of detours, just take him straight.
If you're afraid, you don't want to go at all, or you stop halfway through.
He pressed his hands down gently.
The hall was immediately silent.
"Everyone, please be seated!" Li Zedao.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After shouting in unison again, everyone sat down in turn.
"Colleagues, comrades." Li Ze raised his voice, "In this Yixing Society Great Hall, there is no emperor, no courtiers, no generals, you, me, and him, we are all members of the Yixing Society, and we are all members of the Yixing Society. ”
"Today, we are sitting here, representing the 1,268,432 members of the entire Datang Dynasty, and also representing the 48,910,000 people under the rule of the Tang Dynasty today."
Li Ze's voice sounded loudly in the hall, and under the stage, thousands of delegates held their breath, for fear of missing a word.
And at this moment, on the tower of Taiji Palace, Liu Ruyan was leading Li Tang and Li Ning to stare at the Great Hall in the distance. She has long since stepped down as the general of the Right Qianniu Guard, so this time, she didn't even get the title of representative, but Xia He, because she was still the head of the household, so at this moment, she was also sitting in the Great Hall.
This made Liu Ruyan a little depressed.
"Son, do you see the Great Hall? It's the glittering, most beautiful palace! Pointing to the Great Hall, Liu Ruyan said to Li Tang.
"See."
"Where is your father convening a meeting of many, many people, and when this meeting is over, some things will be completely set the tone, and in the future, there will be no way to change it." Liu Ruyan sighed: "Your father's thoughts are always unfathomable. Why don't the emperors who are in power do it, they have to be a rubber stamp, a clay sculpture Bodhisattva! ”
Li Tang tilted his head and said: "Queen Mother, my father said that even if he is a clay sculpture Bodhisattva, as long as he opens his eyes, he is still extremely powerful!" ”
Liu Ruyan couldn't help laughing: "Did your father tell you?" ”
"yes!" Li Tang nodded and said, "These days, doesn't my father have to teach me and my sister for an hour every day?" In the future, I will become a person like my father. ”
"How can it be so easy?" Liu Ruyan sighed and said: "Tang'er, after a while, you will go back to Wuyi to study, you have to change your name and surname, pretend to be an ordinary person, and go to school with those ordinary children and take exams together." ”
"Okay, okay, do you have a lot of playmates?" Li Tang clapped his hands and laughed, but halfway through the laughter, he stopped again and said, "But in that case, isn't it a long time since I haven't seen my father and queen mother?" ”
"Don't pretend, just look at you, you know that you want to leave us sooner, don't you?" Liu Ruyan feigned anger.
Li Tang laughed a little embarrassedly.
The father is actually very kind, and the imperial concubine is also very gentle, that is, the queen mother, a tigress who is alive, it is really scary.
"If you don't endure hardship, it's hard to be a master." Liu Ruyan sighed: "Your father is right, if you are always in the palace and by our side, even if your father is wise and your mother is invincible in martial arts, he will not be able to teach a good emperor who is intellectually proficient and understands human feelings and sophistication, and knows the sufferings of the world. Even if your mother is reluctant to let you out, she can only let you out for the sake of your future. Son, if you want to be like your father, then this life will be hard. ”
"My son is not afraid of hard work!" Li Tang said loudly.
Liu Ruyan said with a smile: "You naturally say so now, but you must always be able to maintain such a spirit in the future, that's about the same." I tell you, in the future, you will have to fight with the wisest people in the world for the rest of your life, and if you relax a little, those people will surpass you. And if you are surpassed by others, you can really only be a clay sculpture Bodhisattva, and you will never have a chance to open your eyes. ”
"My father is the emperor, and I will be the emperor in the future!" Li said.
"But your father, the emperor, is personally putting on a shackle for him, the emperor, that can never be unbroken." Liu Ruyan said: "With your father's ability, he has spent his entire life creating shackles for the position of emperor, but I am afraid that you will have no half-way except to be trapped by him." And the only chance for you to break free and catch your breath is if you can become someone like your father, an emperor with enough prestige to make everyone look up to him. ”
In the Great Hall, Li Ze looked excited.
"Opening peace for all the people is the purpose that all of us in Yixing Society must keep in mind. In order to achieve this goal, the destiny of heaven is not enough to fear, the ancestors are not enough to be lawful, and the words of people are not enough to be compassionate. And if we want to make thousands of people of Datang peaceful forever, we must make Datang the most powerful country in the world, and let the Chinese nation become the most powerful nation in the world. ”
He strode back to the innermost part of the platform, and with a hard pull, the red curtain covering the wall fell with a thud, and a huge map of the world appeared in front of all the delegates.
"This is the world we live in! Within the red zone is the area occupied by our Datang! Li Ze pointed to the map.
There were shouts of surprise from the hall.
Most of them don't even know that the world is so big. In their eyes, the vast Tang Dynasty only occupies such a small area in this map.
If this was not what Li Ze said, these people would definitely not believe it.
"The world is very big, our enemies are many, many, and if we want to achieve the grand goal we have set, there is only one way, leading us to Datang and becoming a real central country."
