Hundreds of civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty and representatives of the Yixing Society gathered in Chang'an, and Li Ze was finally about to take the last step and become the rightful supreme ruler of this empire.

The first to make a move is naturally the mouthpiece of Datang today, Datang Weekly.

Wuyi auspicious recurs frequently.

First of all, a farmer offered a corn stalk with nine corn cobs, three ears of rice, a large winter melon of dozens of catties, etc., and then there was a thunder in Daqingshan that shook nine nights, after the thunder, a cliff on Daqingshan suddenly appeared all the way to the big characters: the saint is out, the world is flat. Immediately after the Sushui River in the summer flood, the people who cleaned up the river dug out a stone tablet in the silt, and wrote four big characters in the world.

And in the end, it is said that countless Wuyi people saw a colorful dragon rising from the Sushui River, hovering in the air for a long time, and then turned around and went straight to the direction of Chang'an.

Whether it is Daqingshan, Wuyi, or Sushui River, their fingers can naturally only be one person, Li Ze.

Today's Datang Weekly, with a circulation of more than 100,000 copies each time, is all over the country under Li Ze's rule, and even in the areas ruled by the Southern Alliance, there will be Datang Weekly for sale.

In addition to selling to the public, the local government also posted the Tang Weekly Newspaper in towns, villages, and even on major transportation routes. Because of Li Ze's unremitting investment in education for more than ten years, there are more and more literate people in Datang today, and the younger they are, the higher the literacy rate.

When these auspicious rays spread all over the world in a short period of time through the Datang Weekly.

For the people of the Northland, Li Ze's ascension to the throne is expected by all. Over the years, they have never known that there is only Prime Minister Li Ze, and they don't know what emperor there is.

It was Li Ze who gave them land, houses, and livestock.

It was Li Ze who lowered their taxes and abolished all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, so that they could truly achieve more than one year after another.

It was Li Ze who worked hard to clarify the rule of officials, so that officials were no longer high-ranking existences, but the kind of people who could be trusted by the people within reach.

It was Li Ze who built countless canals to save them from drought and floods.

It was Li Ze who repaired countless road traffic and made it extremely easy for them to travel.

It was Li Ze who eliminated the external troubles.

It was Li Ze who reorganized his troops and recovered countless old rivers and mountains.

It was Li Ze who opened up countless new trade routes, allowing the rolling wealth to concentrate on the Tang Dynasty.

If you don't compare anything, you don't know it, and when you compare it, you will know the difference between high and low.

The central authority of the Tang Dynasty was lost in the peasant uprising that swept the country decades ago, and since then, the common people have been living under the command of the Jiedu envoys who cut the drama one by one. They paid food to the Jiedu envoys and served as soldiers, but they didn't know what the emperor was for a long time.

Until Li Ze appeared.

Li Ze let them know that life could be like this.

It was also Li Ze who made them understand that people can live with dignity.

It's still Li Ze, let them know that the Tang people should be the most noble group of people in the world.

So, if they still need an emperor, who can convince them except Li Ze?

The books of all over the country passed through the imperial court post system and poured towards Chang'an.

In this great wave of persuasion by the people, the people of Chang'an are naturally not far behind.

Of course, for Chang'an people, the mood is still very complicated. In just a few years, they have undergone several dynastic changes. First, the Tang Emperor fled in panic, and Zhu Liang entered Chang'an. They became the subjects of the Great Liang.

But after a few years, Datang made a comeback. It's just that the emperor has changed from the old emperor Li Yan to the little emperor Li Ke.

Now, the little emperor is stepping down again.

Li Ze will make his debut.

However, compared with each other, it seems that the current Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, Li Ze, is more reliable.

On the day of Li Yan's reign, although the people of Chang'an still regarded themselves as the people at the feet of the Son of Heaven, but the life was unbearable, and in the Zhuliang era, because of the failure of the connection on the battlefield, it made their situation worse, not only to bear heavier taxes and miscellaneous taxes, but also to take their lives to fight on the battlefield.

In those years, the price of wheat even rose to the level of 600 wen a bucket, and starvation became their daily routine.

And now, the price of wheat has finally recovered to the sixty wen one bucket in the Tang Dynasty, and it is said that in Wuyi, the price is even lower.

They can finally eat enough.

The officials were amiable.

The officials arrested quickly, and the officials did not dare to extort.

The children of wealthy and powerful families are like quails, and they no longer dare to run horses on the street and tease women.

The rangers who once made them dare not speak out are also gone.

Building city walls, roads, and canals is no longer a daunting form of hard work, but a lucrative business.

Although life is still a little harder now, I finally see hope.

If people have hope, their natural spirit will be different.

And all of this was brought by Li Ze.

The political level of the people of Chang'an is a few cuts higher than that of people in other places, and they have foreseen it today from the day the Tang Dynasty returned to Chang'an.

Therefore, under the leadership of well-intentioned people, countless people poured onto Suzaku Street and flocked to the location of the imperial city, holding aloft the book of persuasion, hoping that Li Ze would ascend to the throne.

And the leader made Li Ze a little ridiculous.

It was actually Wang Shu, the former Tang Dynasty Chinese book, who instigated it. This former Tang Zhongshu and also a guy from Daliang Zhongshu, after being idle by Li Ze, he has not given up, and is still working hard to show his value, looking forward to finding a position again in the new court.

The raging tide of the common people has not yet ended, and the officials have finally begun to act.

First the grassroots officials in various places, then the state capital, and then down, finally it was the turn of the court officials and the generals who commanded the army.

Li Ze's desk was full of documents for persuasion.

Of course, according to the usual practice, Li Ze still had to refuse a few times.

Originally, Li Ze was very disdainful of doing this, according to his thoughts, it was already a matter of course, so it was natural to do it.

But whether it is Zhang Hui or Gongsun Changming, several core ministers have repeatedly asked Li Ze to refuse a few times, and then let the ministers go to the book a few more times. Next, the little emperor Li Ke issued an edict to decide to let Zen, and Li Ze refused again, so that he could do it.

"Li Xiang, these things are to be recorded in the history books." Zhang Hui said to Li Ze very seriously: "In today's world, the people and officials naturally know that Li Xiang is what everyone expects and all the people want. But what about later? If it is recorded in the history books that you did not even refuse, it will inevitably make future generations guess that you had the intention of usurping the throne. ”

Li Ze smiled: "It's just to cover your ears and steal the bell." ”

"Even if it's covering your ears and stealing the bell, when you should cover it, you still have to cover it!" Gongsun Changming said with a smile: "Because this is for future generations." ”

In desperation, Li Ze could only listen to the opinions of these people. pinched his nose and reprimanded the officials who persuaded him, claiming that he was originally a descendant of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, and it was his duty to help the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he would never dare to get involved in the throne.

The edict was harsh, but it didn't make everyone flinch.

As soon as everyone knows, this is how it should be done.

Second, once such a thing starts, can it be possible to give up halfway?

As a result, more letters of persuasion poured into the Prime Minister's Office of the Imperial City again.

"There's still a blood book?" Looking at a book of persuasion with red fonts and the smell of blood, Li Ze shook his head again and again, there are many such folds, and even those handprints on the Book of Wanmin, many of which are obviously bloody handprints.

"I believe that the bloody handprints of the common people on this book of the people are true, but are these officials' excerpts? I don't dare believe it all. Xia He shook his head again and again.

Everyone laughed.

After things got to this point, Furukawa in the palace city, that is, the little emperor Li Ke, finally started to act. Of course, there are people who do these things for him.

The first edict was an edict of sin. not only despised his grandfather and son, but also said that he was worthless. This edict was written by Gongsun Changming, and with the bitterness of this father, this edict will inevitably leave a vivid mark in the annals of history.

The second is the edict of Zen, but it is done by Zhang Hui. But it is written in a stable and majestic manner.

Li Ze refused to write again, and even said that he was terrified.

So the third edict was issued again after a few days.

The play has done its part, and it is naturally time for the curtain to come to an end.

In Miyagi, Furukawa was already happily packing up his personal belongings. Empress Xiao Zheng had already been arranged to go to the palace of the Lingnan King outside the city a month ago, and he couldn't wait to complete these things quickly, so that he could reunite with Empress Xiao Zheng, and then look forward to the birth of the little life they conceived together.

Outside Chang'an City, the tall Zen platform has also been built. It's also funny to say that when Li Ze reprimanded the officials who persuaded him to go in and wrote a letter to show his loyalty, the construction of the Zen Concession Platform outside the city never stopped.

Wang Sili's 30,000-strong army controlled the traffic arteries and the security of the outer city in Chang'an.

Li Han's five thousand Mo sword guards were stationed in the imperial city.

Li Peng's 3,000 guards were stationed in the inner city.

Everything is in place.

After the little emperor issued the edict of Chan for the fourth time, Li Ze finally expressed to the world that he decided to accept the emperor's Zen position and did his best for the prosperity and greatness of the Tang Dynasty.

The Taiji Palace, which has been closed, reopened the palace gate and began to renovate and arrange.

The location of the former power center of the Tang Dynasty will shine again and become the most eye-catching place in this world.
