Saying this, Han Lin burst into tears, and the people around him were also infected, and the sobbing continued.

Han Lin continued: "It's not just Shaanxi. The northeast, northwest, southwest, and even Wuyue regions were all affected by natural disasters, and the hungry people had nowhere to find food even if they wanted to go out to seek food, and the displaced people were even deprived of the opportunity to wander around!

In addition to natural disasters, it is more man-made disasters that cause people to suffer. Above the court, those civil and military officials have never thought about the people of the world, they only care about their own interests, and fight to the death when they are engaged in party struggles, but they are unwilling to spend even a single effort for the country and the people. The upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, not to mention other places, that is, these people on the torture platform now, usually fish and flesh the people, and act as a prestige and blessing, and I don't know how many people have been victimized by it. The imperial court was so poor that it couldn't even pay the military salary, and the combined property of these people was several million taels, which could support tens of thousands of troops. This is all everyone's blood and sweat, but they are ruthlessly looted and squandered, can you bear this kind of thing? Tell me! ”

"Can't!"

"Can't!"

……

On the other hand, it subtly raised the bottom line of their patience, which was not a good thing for the rulers of all dynasties, but it was what Han Lin needed to establish a new regime.

When his voice gradually became quieter, Han Lin shouted vigorously: "I, Han Lin, for the sake of the country and the people, will support King Guiduan, the son of Emperor Shenzong, to ascend to the Great Treasure."

The time has come to save all the people from fire and water, and from now on - to make a decision! ”

"Han Lin, you can't die well!" Yuan Yang knew that he would definitely die, so he could only find a balance in his mouth, and it was Yuan Duo who changed his name to Han Duo who executed him. Who knew that an aunt below threw a rotten egg at him, hitting his stinky mouth, Zhou Hong and a few who wanted to leave a "last word" closed their mouths bitterly, only the trembling of their bodies showed their fear of death.

The knife fell, several heads fell to the ground at the same time, blood was sprinkled all over the torture table, many of the people below closed their eyes or turned their heads, unable to accept such a bloody picture, and more people endured physical discomfort to stare at this scene with their eyes wide open.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the enthronement ceremony will be held outside the city at three o'clock in the afternoon, at this time of national crisis, everything is simple, welcome to come and watch the ceremony, and participate in the grand event!" After Han Lin finished speaking, he turned to Zhu Changying, "Lord Wang, please." ”

"Okay."

Back at Guiduan's Palace, Zhu Changying changed into a bright yellow gown. Princess Ma is dressed in a phoenix crown and a crown of nine dragons and four phoenixes, and according to Han Lin's plan, she will accept the greetings of officials and people together with Zhu Changying.

At that time, the bell and drum rang, Zhu Changying took the lead, Ma followed closely behind, and Han Lin and others were all around.

Outside the city, on a hill not far from the mourning hall, the newly built Tianmen Tower is simple, but it has an extraordinary symbolic meaning, royal and majestic.

Since the first enthronement ceremony held by Ming Renzong Zhu Gaochi on the tower of Tianmen Castle, this ceremony has been determined, and the enthronement of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty has generally followed this set of rules. In other words, Tianmen witnessed the honor of almost all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Changying climbed the tower alone to pray, and the officials led by Han Lin waited quietly on both sides of the royal road below according to Wendong and Wuxi, and thousands of people stretched their necks to look in. The ritual of kneeling was abolished at Han Lin's behest, after all, no one was so humble as to beg to kneel.

The prayer lasted for a quarter of an hour, and Zhu Changying walked down the city tower, entered without a single floor tile, only existed in the imaginary Fengtian Temple, and sat on the dragon chair. Ma sat in the back, and Yang Shouchun stood aside with the holy decree formulated by Han Lin in both hands.

Officials of all sizes immediately stepped forward to congratulate them in order of their official positions.

Yang Shouchun then stepped forward to read out the holy decree: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: I am now enthroned as the emperor, change the Yuan Yongli, and seal the Ma family as the queen, and the whole world celebrates." However, there are Qing people who look at the wolf outside, and there are beacons in various places inside, and I will permanently reduce agricultural taxes to celebrate and boost national strength. Chin this! ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Han Lin took the lead in bowing and shouting, so many officials and hundreds of people shouted in unison, even Zhu Changying knew that he was just a puppet, and he couldn't help but feel a little immortal, thinking: It's not bad to be an emperor who doesn't care about anything. It's just that Han Lin's name was written in the enthronement decree, and he really didn't exist when I did.

After laughing at himself, Zhu Changying untied the knot in his heart and calmly accepted his identity.

Guiduan Palace, decorated with a plaque, temporarily used as a palace, may also be Zhu Changying's only palace, and set up a banquet to entertain Zheng Qipin, that is, officials at the county level and above.

At the time of Shen, the Xuanzheng Palace, which had just been "listed", was sentenced to the officials of the Procuratorial Envoy Department and the Chengxuan Political Envoy Division, Zhu Changying sat on the dragon chair, and Han Lin, Han Duan, Zhu Youlin, Zhu Youlang and others were already standing below.

Before those officials saluted, Han Lin stepped out and said to them: "Colleagues, in this special period, Your Majesty Corporal Lixian has authorized us not to make a big salute, and if anyone shouts 'Long live' in the future, they will be punished for one month." ”

"Lord Han, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, wouldn't this break the etiquette system and ignore the rules of the ancestors." An old man with a white beard did not dare to directly oppose Han Lin, thinking that he was an honest official and had a very high prestige, and Han Lin would not do anything to him because of his words.

"It turned out that Fan Yuan participated in politics, this is a decision made by His Majesty after careful consideration, are you questioning Your Majesty, or do you want Your Majesty to die like the first emperor?" Han Lin raised his eyelids and said lightly.

"Panic!" Fan Yuan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and fell to his knees with a "poof".

"Ai Qing is flat, what Han Qing said is what I mean, and these will be exempted in the future." Zhu Changying knew when to speak and what to say.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fan Yuan stood up tremblingly and stepped aside, not planning to make a head bird.

Han Lin continued: "In "Zhou Yi", it is said: If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to do it for a long time. During the Warring States Period, various countries changed their laws to become stronger, and the Qin State changed the law through Shang Ying, which laid the foundation for the Qin king to sweep Liuhe and the princes to the west. Now our dynasty can only implement resolute changes to restore our Ming dynasty and restore the glory of our ancestors.

This dynasty did not set up six ministries and other institutions, but re-established:

The Ming Military Commission, responsible for the command of the army, has the right to transfer troops but not the right to command the army. I, Han Lin, am the chairman, and Han Duan is the vice chairman. It consists of a logistics support department and a staff department.

The Daming Court, responsible for legal affairs, prisons, etc., was formerly the deputy envoy Xu Shao served as the president.

The Ming Legislative Council is responsible for formulating and interpreting legal provisions, with Han Lin as the chairman and Wang Fuzhi as the vice chairman.

The Ming Cabinet is responsible for handling daily state affairs, with Han Lin as Prime Minister and Wang Fuzhi as Vice Premier.

Inside, you set up

The Ministry of National Defense, which is responsible for the daily affairs of the armed forces and the armed forces, has the right to command the armed forces but does not have the right to transfer troops. Han Duan is the minister, and I, Han Lin, am the vice minister.

The Ministry of Finance, responsible for taxation and economic policy, is the former Minister Fan Yuan, who participated in politics, and Zhao Shouren is the Vice Minister.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is responsible for matters such as nationality and people's identity registration, with former Senator Zhang Shujun as minister and Zhao Sheng as vice minister.

The Ministry of Supervision is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, with Anren Wang Zhu Youying as the minister and Han Shan as the deputy minister.

……

Specific changes and personnel transfers will be printed and distributed to you first, and then they will be published in various places.

My requirements are not high, and I hope that these things will be completed within a month, at least in Guangdong. ”

Han Lin briefly read it out and returned to his position, and Zhu Changying continued: "I hope that all the ministers will work together for the country and the people, and work together to help me calm the world." Retreat! ”

At this time in Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong had already led the army to conquer the capital Chengdu, and was very stunned to learn that Zhu Changying, the king of Guiduan, was very stunned when he was called emperor in Guangzhou.

Nan Zhili, who had supervised the Fengyang army, and the eunuch Lu Jiude, who had broken the thief and meritorious service, contacted everywhere and won the support of Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, the central capital, and Gao Jie, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo and Liu Liangqing, the commanders of the four towns in Jiangbei, and prepared to support Zhu Yousong, the king of Fu, as the emperor.

Soon, the blessed king Zhu Yousong was proclaimed emperor in Jinling and changed to Yuan Hongguang. Zhang Xianzhong was proclaimed emperor in Chengdu, the country name was Daxi, the Yuan Dashun was changed, and Chengdu was the western capital.

In the newly built cabinet palace next to the Yongli Emperor's Palace, Han Lin, Han Duan and others read the latest information.

Wang Fuzhi sighed: "Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, led the Qing soldiers into the customs, and Li Zicheng was defeated under the combined attack of Wu Sangui and Dolgon, and retreated to Henan, Shaanxi and other places. This is the army that has just broken into the city of Beijing! ”

"The strength of the Qing people should not be underestimated." Han Duan groaned.

Cabinet Minister Chen Bangyan, one of the three loyalists in history, is concerned about another matter: "Prime Minister, how should we deal with Jinling?" ”

"How to deal with it?" Han Lin said with a smile, "There is no point in saying this now, they can't threaten us, we take the initiative to attack them and become unknown, and we can't stand up in morality and etiquette." Let them become a line of defense against the Qing army. ”

Chen Bangyan nodded.

Han Lin unfolded the map, pointed to it and said: "We have not returned from the Qincha to various places, no matter what the result is, whether the places will recognize Yongli or not, we must control Guangxi, southern Huguang, southern Jiangxi and Fujian before the Qing troops cross the river. ”

"Prime Minister, didn't you just say that you would not send troops, if these places are subordinate to Jinling, how can they control it?" Chen Bangyan was puzzled.

"Haha," Han Duan laughed, "this is when you are useless like a sour Confucian." ”

"You..."Chen Bangyan was a little angry, if it was the Chongzhen Dynasty, when would it be the turn of the military attache to be so arrogant, but he was not a person with a small belly, "Please Lord Han for advice." ”

"As long as we bring more gold and silver treasures to visit those magistrates, there will be many people who will surrender to us, if not, lead the army to go around them, and then let a few stubborn corrupt officials die violently, the main force of Jinling is not there, who else dares to fight against us?"
