…

Today, all the officials are not in order.

The point is that Li Yan has not yet ascended the throne after all.

Therefore, Li Yan did not hold a court meeting, but only asked Zai Zhi and the existing ministers to come to the Vertical Arch Hall to watch the court.

In this dynasty, although there are many new faces such as Tang Ke, Li Guang, Wang Shiyong, Xu Bingzhe, Chen Xizhen, etc., the main members are still the old people of Shuibo Liangshan.

Therefore, it is still the old rules of Shuibo Liangshan.

Zhao Ding led the civil and military officials to worship Li Yan, and Xiang Chun, the inner attendant, as before, sang: "If there is something to do, make up early, and retreat from the dynasty if there is nothing." ”

On the first day of the founding of the country, how could it be okay?

It can be said that almost everyone below has a stomach of things waiting for Li Yan to come up with an idea, after all, the new dynasty has just opened, and there are many things.

Wang Shiyong was the first to come out of the crowd and said, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent matter here that needs to be decided by Your Majesty as soon as possible." ”

Li Yan asked, "Why are you so anxious?" ”

Wang Shiyong said: "Please Your Majesty set the name of the country and the year of the new dynasty." ”

The name of the country is the name of the regime that exercises national sovereignty and represents the official name of the legal ruling power of a country.

Therefore, Wang Shiyong said that "imminent" is not an exaggeration at all.

After listening to Wang Shiyong's invitation to set the name of the country, not only the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, but even Li Yan felt that this matter was undecided, and he couldn't have called the nondescript name of "Shuibo Liangshan" all the time, right?

Moreover, many newly attached people can't accept the nondescript name of "Shuibo Liangshan" from the bottom of their hearts.

In fact, not only the newly attached people couldn't accept it, but even Li Yan and the people within the regime didn't call themselves "Shuibo Liangshan" anymore, most of them called themselves "Liaodong", and only Li Yan and some old people in Shuibo Liangshan still liked to call themselves "Shuibo Liangshan".

In fact, this is also normal, in the final analysis, Shuibo Liangshan is just a small puddle and a small hill, and it cannot represent a country at all, let alone a big country.

Now, it's time to say goodbye to "Shuibo Liangshan" and change to a more formal country name.

Li Yan pondered for a moment, and then asked Wang Shiyong: "What suggestions does the Ministry of Rites have?" ”

Wang Shiyong said: "Chu, Qi, can be used as the name of our dynasty." ”

As soon as he heard the two country names that Wang Shiyong chose for him, Li Yan's mouth couldn't help but twitch, pseudo-Chu? Pseudo-Qi?

Don't think about it, Zhang Bangchang's country name must have been helped by Wang Shiyong.

and Liu Yu's country name, if you can't get it right, it was also helped by Wang Shiyong's people.

Li Yan didn't like these two broken names at all.

Therefore, Li Yan didn't even think about it, so he asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Wang Shiyong heard the words and said: "How about using 'Lu' as the name of our dynasty?" His Majesty is a native of Shandong, and he started in Shandong, with 'Lu' as the country name, which can be traced back to the roots. ”

First of all, Li Yan is not from Shandong at all.

Secondly, Li Yan also doesn't like the country name "Lu".

Therefore, Li Yan said again: "Is there nothing else?" ”

As soon as Wang Shiyong heard it, he knew that Li Yan didn't like the country name "Lu" either.

Since he met Li Yan yesterday, Wang Shiyong has been busy until now, and he really doesn't have the energy to sneak Li Yan anymore, so he can only say: "The minister is stupid." ”

Li Yan motioned for Wang Shiyong to step down, then looked at the other ministers of civil and military affairs and asked, "Do you have any good proposals?" ”

Zhu Guidao: "How about using 'beam'?" ”

Without waiting for Li Yan to speak, there was humanity: "There have been 'Liang' and 'Later Liang' in history, if my dynasty uses 'Liang' as the name of the country again, how should future generations call me Chao?" ”

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "How about using 'water'?" I don't think I've heard of any dynasty called the Water Dynasty. ”

As soon as Ruan Xiaoqi said this, many people covered their mouths and smiled.

Seeing this, Li Yan said: "I started by water, the world depends on water, and the governance of the world also depends on water, water gives birth to all things, and all things return to water, water is the origin of all things...... Tell me more, are there any other suitable ones? ”

Li Yan personally came out to defend Ruan Xiaoqi, who would dare to laugh at Ruan Xiaoqi's vulgarity again? A group of rude ministers who laughed at Ruan Xiaoqi hurriedly put away their smiles, looked at their noses, noses and mouths, and mouths and hearts.

Sun Mao, who was brought in for questioning, actually has no position here in Li Yan at present.

But just now after Li Yan asked Sun Mao, Zhao Ding led hundreds of civil and military officials to meet him.

Seeing this, Li Yan asked Sun Mo to step aside first, and did not push Sun Mo out, who had really said a lot of useful things.

Sun Mo is a good person, especially four or six, even Zhao Song's table was drafted by him, and the Jin people are full of praise for his writing.

Moreover, Sun Mo was a person who violated the law - later, he entered the Southern Song Dynasty as an official, first attached Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan, slandered Li Gang, and then reverted to sycophants and slandered Yue Fei.

To sum up, Sun Mo is actually a villain with outstanding literary talents.

Sun Mo knew very well in his heart that with his drafting of the demotion table, his career in Zhao and Song was basically over, so he took the risk to vote for Li Yan, hoping that Li Yan could be reused.

On this basis, Sun Mo naturally wants to express himself desperately.

Seeing the several country names that others said, Li Yan was not satisfied, and Sun Mo said: "The avenue is fifty." Tianyan forty-nine. Escape one of them. is a definite number. It's also variable. The avenue is invisible. Heaven does nothing. Fate is also fate, it is for the determination also! His Majesty's honorific name "Yan" is the meaning of water flowing into the sea and abundance, and it is the most good thing to use it as the name of the country. ”

Using his own name as the country name made Li Yan a little moved.

But at this moment, Li Guang came out and said: "Since ancient times, there has never been a use of the monarch's honorific name as the name of the country, and I am afraid that this move is inappropriate." ”

Xu Bingzhe retorted: "There is a precedent for everything, Your Majesty is the first emperor of the ages, the crown covers the universe, there is Your Majesty, there is a new dynasty, without Your Majesty, there will be no new dynasty, what is wrong with using Your Majesty's honorific name as the name of the country?" ”

Tang Ke said: "Your Majesty's merits do not need to be publicized in the form of a national name, the history books will definitely give Your Majesty a judgment, why do we need to wait for the snake to add to it?" ”

Next, whether to use Li Yan's name as the country name, the newly joined Yuan Song Chen launched a heated discussion, and the officials of Yuan Shuibo Liangshan all looked at it and did not intervene.

Li Yan has come to the present step by step, relying not only on the knowledge of later generations and his invincible martial arts, but also on a pair of discerning eyes that he has cultivated invisibly - today's Li Yan can be said to be discerning, and has a very thorough grasp of people's hearts.

For example, now, Li Yan clearly sees that the ministers who support using their own names as the national name are all smuggling themselves, while most of the ministers who oppose using their own names as the national name are afraid that their prestige will be too great and they will not be restrained, and then they will become faint monarchs.

Since the time of imperial power, imperial power and vassal power have been in a constant struggle.

If the power of the minister is too great, the power of the minister will be born.

And if the imperial power is too great, it is easy to become a faint king.

In a good dynasty, the imperial power and the vassal power must achieve a perfect balance.

Only in this way can the country be stable and have good development.

From the establishment of Shuibo Liangshan, Li Yan's prestige is so high that no one can challenge it, maybe, among the founding monarchs, the only one who is not worried about his generals leading the army to rebel is Li Yan, because, almost all the territory owned by Shuibo Liangshan now is led by Li Yan himself, and the reason why Shuibo Liangshan has developed rapidly and well is also created by Li Yan himself, it is no exaggeration to say that in Shuibo Liangshan, Li Yan has even been mythologized.

In this case, if Li Yan is not self-controlled, there is really no one who can restrain Li Yan.

This is also what Tang Ke, Li Guang and others are most worried about.

Therefore, Tang Ke, Li Guang and others used this matter to test Li Yan's attitude.

And the people of the original Shuibo Liangshan family know that although Li Yan is the same, Li Yan is very "lazy" and does not like to take power, so Tang Ke and Li Guang are meaningless, and they also know that Li Yan is disdainful and there is no need to use a name to increase his prestige, so he did not get involved.

Although Li Yan didn't like the way Tang Ke, Li Guang and others acted, he understood their original intentions and felt that people like Tang Ke and Li Guang should be given some confidence, after all, it was the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and their monarchs and ministers had only begun to get in touch, and they needed to run in well.

Therefore, Li Yan took a step forward and said, "Dazai Qianyuan, how about using 'Yuan' as the country name?" - Li Yan also wants to take Meng Yuan's path, so that Meng Yuan has no way out.

Seeing that Li Yan had given in, Tang Ke, Li Guang and the others were relieved, and said secretly: "Your Majesty really has the bearing of a Ming Jun." ”

But—

Tang Ke, Li Guang and others are not completely at ease with Li Yan.

Therefore, Li Guang further probed and said: "'Yuan' is the name of the country, which is excellent, but it is a pity that ten years ago, Gao Yongchang, a native of Bohai, rebelled against Liao and claimed to be the emperor of the Great Bohai Sea. ”

Li Yan stared at Li Guang for a while, and then smiled: "Aiqing's words also have some truth, huh...... The middle one, not partial, is the world's great foundation, so the gentleman is the foundation, and the Tao is born; The mediocre is not easy, the foundation of all things, so the gentleman is solid, and the foundation is fast; Harmony, happy industry, the world's way, so the gentleman is happy, Tianjian in the festival. Now that I am China, then we should use 'China' as the name of the country, Dazhong, so let's decide. ”

Li Yan took "Dazhong" as the national name, in addition to commemorating that he was Chinese, but also because Li Yan remembered something:

When Zhu Yuanzhang founded the Ming Dynasty, the founding name was intended to be "Dazhong", but later considered that there were some Mingjiao disciples under him, and using "Ming" as the country name could show its orthodox status in Mingjiao, and at the same time, it should be prophesied by the "birth of King Ming" in Mingjiao, so the country name was changed to "Daming".

Li Yan did not have Zhu Yuanzhang's scruples, so he took "Dazhong" as the country name.

Li Yan took another step, he had already given enough face to Tang Ke, Li Guang and others, and if he let it again, it would not be Li Yan's character, so Li Yan didn't ask anymore, and directly set the country name.

Although Tang Ke, Li Guang and others did not get the result they wanted most, they also knew that Li Yan, the immediate founding monarch, would never be able to obey the minister's words like Song Renzong, and it was not easy to make two steps in a row.

Therefore, under the leadership of Zhao Ding, Tang Ke, Li Guang and others hurriedly bowed together with other civil and military officials: "May God bless my Dazhong, may my emperor live long live, long live, long live!" ”

In order to knock Tang Ke, Li Guang and others, Li Yan didn't discuss with his courtiers, and directly said: "As for the era name, let's set it as 'Great Unification'." ”

Tang Ke, Li Guang and the others couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in their hearts: "This master, it is really a good thing to repay...... Fortunately, this master is not stubborn and does not listen to persuasion, as long as he pays attention to the method, he can still communicate. ”

As soon as I heard the name of the era given by Li Yan, the civil and military forces in Dazhong, especially the civil and military of the Liangshan series of the original Shuibo, how could they not know that Li Yan hoped to complete the unification of the world during the unification of the world?

This is also the common wish of the great Chinese military officials.

Therefore, the great Chinese military officials bowed together: "May my emperor unify the world, may my emperor live long live long live!" ”

PS: I wanted to write a big chapter of four or five thousand words, but when I coughed, my head hurt like a pinprick, and I couldn't help coughing, and when I wrote more than three thousand words, I really couldn't stand it, so I didn't write the year number in detail, and I took it with one stroke, and then read it, and it was good, and finally decided to send so much today.

I'm sorry, I owe you another five or six hundred words, and when I get better from my cold, I will definitely make up for what I owe to you as much as possible.
