Chapter 621: Tell the world: The auspicious day abdicates, and the crown prince ascends the throne!
Time flies sometimes, and when you remember, the heavens and the earth change color.
Around the spring equinox, the Xia Emperor released his military power with a cup of wine, took away the military power of eleven military marquises, and let them stay in Kyoto to enjoy the fame brought by the heroes of Lingyun Pavilion.
Anxi's garrison was placed under the control of Chen Qingzhi and Han Xin. The garrison of Anbei was handed over to Li Cunxiao, Yang Youji and Yue Fei to take charge. As for the garrisons of important state capitals, they were managed by deputies first.
After the vernal equinox is Qingming.
At this moment, the cold of last year's cold winter has completely dissipated, but the flood has begun to make trouble again, fortunately, the flood storage lake has been excavated over the years, and the people in the flood-prone areas have been relocated, so the impact of this flood is not serious.
When it comes to the Guyu solar term, which is the last solar term of spring, it symbolizes the pulsation of soil plaster, and the rainfall increases significantly, especially in the southern region, which will form a longer period of rainy weather.
And when it came to the beginning of summer, the time came to April 20th.
In the past two months, there has not been much change in the territory of Great Xia, but the territory of the Wa Kingdom has taken on a new look.
Qi Jiguang deserved to be a master of commanding troops, he succeeded Pingbohou, quickly destroyed the Tokugawa shogunate, and then began to finish the work. At the same time, the imperial court sent Ashikaga Nobita's son, Ashikaga Kogoro, as the assassin of the history, and the Wa Kingdom was completely renamed Yingzhou, and the Wa Kingdom was included in the territory of Bactria .
Ashikaga Kogoro has a weak personality and is just a chess piece, and the purpose of using him is naturally to appease the people of the Wa Kingdom. Obviously, this move is very correct.
In addition, the Great Xia court also promulgated benevolent policies, so that the people of the Japanese kingdom, who were already living in dire straits, were at peace.
Up to now, the situation in the Wa Kingdom has basically been resolved, and there are 100,000 Great Xia soldiers and horses here, which is enough to deter everyone.
When the news came back to Great Xia, neither Emperor Xia nor Xiao Rui expected Qi Jiguang to complete the task so quickly, a month earlier than Emperor Xia's calculation.
The craftsmen of the Ministry of Works sent to the Japanese Kingdom relied directly on the Emperor's palace to build the palace without having to rebuild it, so the progress was also very fast, and the letter said that the complete renovation could be completed in a month at the earliest.
Now, the last thing has been done, and Emperor Xia has decided to hand over this inheritance.
The morning pilgrimage of the second day.
The civil and military officials discovered the difference of His Majesty today.
After His Majesty came to the Golden Palace, he did not sit on the Golden Palace and pretend to sleep, or even sit down, but stood in front of the dragon chair and swept the ministers in the palace.
The officials did not dare to move after saluting, and stood aside respectfully, and even the sound of discussion was gone, and the huge golden hall was quiet.
After a long time, Emperor Xia came back to his senses from his memories, his voice was full of emotion, and he said leisurely: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have been the emperor of Great Xia for twenty-seven years, with the determination to make Great Xia strong, I have worked hard, I dare not say how much merit I have created, but I can be worthy of my ancestors and ancestors, and I am worthy of my subjects, and I am satisfied." When I get old, as soon as I get old, my ambition will retreat, so I am no longer able to lead Great Xia to a more brilliant future. During the period when the prince was in charge of the country, his intelligence, morality and ability were all the best choice! I was able to expand the territory and benefit the people, and I was also stained with the light of the prince, and the new crops he sent people to find from overseas alone proved his vision and ability. Therefore, if you hand over Daxia to the crown prince to be in charge, and you are assisted by all the ministers, why worry about Daxia not prospering? ”
When the civil and military officials heard this, their breathing suddenly became short.
Your Majesty's words are already too obvious, the previous situation has been set up for so long, is it finally about to start?
After Emperor Xia sighed, his tone became heavier, and he became extremely firm, and shouted: "I have decided that Zhejiri will abdicate and make way for Xian, and the crown prince will inherit the throne!" Where is the Book of Rites? ”
The deer expedition hurriedly came out of the column and bowed: "The minister is here!" ”
Emperor Xia said: "Select an auspicious day, announce it to the world, and welcome the new king in Great Xia!" I personally crowned the crown prince! ”
"Weichen Command!" The deer expedition hurriedly responded.
Emperor Xia nodded, his tone softened, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your hard work!" I'll be here this morning, so let's retreat! ”
The civil and military officials withdrew in a surging mood, and then, His Majesty abdicated, and the news that the crown prince would ascend the throne suddenly swept through Kyoto like a storm, and then spread to other state capitals.
The people are very reluctant, and His Majesty's benevolence and love for the people are obvious to all. Subsequently, the people began to sing loudly about His Majesty's exploits and praise His Majesty's great deeds, which were not inferior to the founding emperor of Great Xia.
According to the favorable time and place, the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Heavenly Supervisor calculated that the 18th day of May a month later would be an auspicious day, and at that time, the Ziwei Emperor Star would move exactly above the Great Xia, predicting the omen of the emperor's heart coming into the world and the world becoming one.
The selected day was presented to Emperor Xia, who nodded in agreement, and then the cabinet officially drafted the decree and announced it to the world!
The decree was sent to the state capitals in the form of an expedited express of eight hundred miles, and the matter of His Majesty's abdication has been finalized, and there are no variables.
Xiao Rui was not idle, while he was familiar with the rules of the enthronement ceremony, his dragon robe had already been made. Of course, this was arranged by His Majesty in advance, and Xiao Rui didn't have the courage to customize the dragon robe privately.
His Majesty personally came with the dragon robe and urged Xiao Rui to change into it as soon as possible.
"Father, this is not appropriate!" Xiao Rui said helplessly.
Emperor Xia smiled: "What's inappropriate, you are about to ascend the throne, how can you know if it's suitable if you don't try the gown?" Enthronement is a major event, and there must be no mistakes. ”
It was a great pleasure to see His Majesty's eagerness to see his son ascend the throne with his own eyes.
On second thought, hey, really. The other emperors were largely invisible.
It is said that the son inherits the father's business, and the emperor's profession must be replaced by the father when the father dies, and there are not many people who can take the initiative to abdicate while he is not dying.
In order to satisfy His Majesty's hobbies, Xiao Rui could only change into a yellow gown under the service of the internal officials.
There are nine golden dragons on the robe, with five-colored clouds between them, three on the front and back of the body, one on the left and right shoulders, and one in the placket, so there are five on the back, which is in line with the emperor's "Ninety-Five".
Tailor-made timing is appropriate, Xiao Rui has a compelling bearing after putting it on, majestic and tall, and sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles.
After all, he is not the emperor, so he didn't wear the crown, even so, Xiao Rui at this time is also eye-catching.
Yan Xiaoxiao didn't dare to be presumptuous, but she couldn't help but peek, and thought to herself: "Why is Your Highness so good-looking!" ”
Xia Huang nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad, not bad!" Reward the Weaving Bureau! ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Hai Dafu responded, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wearing a dragon robe, which is exactly the same as His Majesty back then, it is really carved out of a mold!" The same mighty and domineering, the same handsome and extraordinary. ”
Xiao Rui also smiled: "Why don't you see it on weekdays, Father-in-law Hai's mouth is so sweet." ”
Emperor Xia said: "Hai Ban is telling the truth, this is not a boast!" ”
Xiao Rui was still a little uncomfortable, so he changed into his uniform.
And Emperor Xia waved his hand and made everyone retreat.
Father and son drank tea and chatted.
"After I ascended the throne, the crown prince has not been established for a long time, which is indeed not conducive to the stability of the country. When you ascend the throne, do you have any thoughts of making your eldest son the crown prince? Emperor Xia asked.
Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Erchen does have this idea, but the premature establishment of a prince is too stressful for the child, and it is easy to cause psychological burden, so after thinking about it, Erchen wants to wait, wait until he is older, and see if he is capable or not." ”
"Good!" Emperor Xia nodded, although he loved his grandson very much, he also understood the truth.
At this time, Emperor Xia said: "There is one more thing next. ”
"Father, please speak!" Xiao Rui asked.
Emperor Xia said: "After you ascend the throne, in order to continue the bloodline, you will naturally have to fill the harem." I have long known that you and Yan Xiaoxiao are in love with each other, but the reason why I have not rewarded her to you for a long time is because I am hesitating, afraid that I will leave her to you, and your harem will not be peaceful. ”
Xiao Rui was stunned, but he didn't expect His Majesty to have this scruple: "Father, it shouldn't be!" ”
Emperor Xia sighed: "Yan Xiaoxiao, this woman is strong, not only intelligent, but also quite means, if it weren't for her daughter, she would have a place in the court." If you accept her as a concubine, once she gives birth to a prince, how will you not support your son as emperor? Look at my harem, Concubine Mu and the queen, this is a stark example, you can't stop it. And with the temperament of the crown princess, she is basically not Yan Xiaoxiao's opponent. That's why I hesitated. Then I figured it out, why worry about something that hasn't happened yet? Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. But I have to remind you! In addition, the harem must not interfere, and this group training must not be forgotten! ”
Xiao Rui nodded, naturally understanding His Majesty's worries.
"Father, please rest assured, the sons and ministers all understand, keep in mind and dare not forget!" Xiao Rui said solemnly.
Emperor Xia breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "That's all for the explanation, it's up to you in the future." ”
After speaking, Emperor Xia got up and left the Golden Palace, and at this moment, his back was a little lonely and old. The country that has been guarded for 27 years is finally going to let go, and there will definitely be that reluctance.
Xiao Rui opened his mouth, wanting to speak but didn't know what to say.
Seeing His Majesty leave, Xiao Rui stood in front of the gate of the Golden Palace, looking into the distance, and his calm mood set off heroism.
Crossing is already rare, and now that he is an emperor, it is impossible not to be excited.
Of course, the system is the most important thing to thank.
"System, thank you for your efforts." Xiao Rui said sincerely.
The system finally bubbled: "Really? ”
Xiao Rui nodded and said, "This time it must be sincere!" ”
System: "So the words of thanking the system before were all false and deceived the system?" ”
Xiao Rui: ....
"You'd better continue to be silent, don't chat if you can't talk." Xiao Rui was speechless.
System: "Okay, thank you to the system!" It took more than six years to ascend to the Great Unification, although it was a little slow, but it finally completed the mission of this system! ”
Xiao Rui was curious: "Your mission is to help me sit on the throne?" ”
The system said: "Of course! Your start is good, my last host was a monk, and it took a lot of effort to help him become the founding emperor, and your skills are obviously inferior to others! ”
Xiao Rui was not angry, because the system was telling the truth.
And Xiao Rui was more concerned about other issues, and asked: "After I ascend the throne, how many times will the system reward me?" ”
"Twice!" System Channel.
When Xiao Rui heard this, he almost fried the pot: "So slammed!" Why don't you die! You have to do it eight times out of ten! ”
System: "Love or not!" But these two comings are different! ”
"What's the doorway?" Xiao Rui sensed that there was an inside story.
The system said: "The host can choose to come!" Choosing the advent means that the advent target can be selected directly by the host! 100% coming! ”
"Really?" Xiao Rui was overjoyed, although the two arrivals were a little less, but the choice of advent was good.
The system asks, "Who does the host want to choose?" ”
"Is Sun Wukong okay?"
"Get out!"
