"Your Majesty, at this moment you are still using the Jingkang year name, and the ministers think that since the Zhao and Song dynasties have perished, and the Central Plains are also owned by the king, it is very inappropriate to use the Jingkang year name at this time, and the ministers and others suggest changing the year name." In the political hall, Li Fu and other ministers sat on both sides, but Li Jing sat at the top, looking at the recital on the side, Li Fu held a recital in his hand and said seriously.

"Oh, what era names have been drafted by the Cabinet Hall?" Li Jing threw aside the movement in his hand, he was not good at these era names, and he didn't know what to pay attention to when drafting an era name.

"The ministers and others respectively drafted six era names for the king to choose, such as Jianyan, Tianzhu, Hongwu, Longwu, Cheng'an, and Jiande." Li Fu hurriedly said. Today, several scholars in the Qilin Pavilion gathered together to discuss some of the situations that Li Jing should pay attention to when he ascended the throne, and to get rid of Yelu Dashi, who was commanding the battle in the Western Regions, and other people such as Li Fu, Zhao Ding, Zhang Xiaochun, Wang Pu and others had already gathered, and even Zheng Juzhong was called over.

"Yelu Dashi is on the front line, can there be a battle report?" Li Jing thought for a moment and asked.

"Yelu Dashi has gone to the Western Regions, and now there is no battle report coming, the most recent battle report is the battle report sent by General Li Qiao three days ago, the army has gathered in Keyi Gate, after Keyi Gate, it is Xingqing Mansion." Zhao Ding hurriedly said. He didn't know why Li Jing didn't follow the topic, but was worried about the matter of the expedition to the west, but he still replied seriously.

"How is the preparation of grain and grass, this king heard that every inch of land in Western Xia will be contested, and there are almost no surrenders, and the progress of the soldiers is very slow." Li Jing frowned, he really wanted to be the emperor after solving the Western Xia, otherwise, he would just occupy the Central Plains and Hedong Road, and be called the emperor, I am afraid that he would be laughing and generous.

Wang Pu and Zheng Juzhong glanced at each other, these two guys knew Li Jing's thoughts, and they heard Wang Pu laugh and said: "Your Majesty, Xixia is already dying, and the minister thinks that within two months, there must be good news. Otherwise, Lord Yelu would have wanted to ask the king to increase his troops at this time. The crowd burst into laughter.

"If the king thinks about waiting for the day of Lord Yelu's triumphant return to ascend the throne and become emperor, the minister thinks that it is not necessary, the king ascends the throne, and the front-line soldiers will definitely have high morale after hearing the news, and maybe they will be able to destroy the Western Xia in less than two months." Li Fu also spoke.

"If Xixia is so easy to fight, it won't wait until now." Li Jing shook his head, looked at the music in front of him, took the red pen on the side, clicked on it, and said: "This king started with soldiers and horses, and fought in the south and the north. There is no need to wait for the first month, from tomorrow, it will be called the first year of Hongwu! This dynasty will not change the era name from now on, just use Hongwu, and the emperor will not change the era name unless forced to do so in the future. To avoid getting the people, these people don't know that the emperor's name has been changed, so it's a little easier to change the name once every few decades, if it weren't for the fear that the history books are not easy to write, I can't wait to call Hongwu how many years and how many years in the future. "In the end, among the many era names, Hongwu is more familiar, Li Jing chose a Hongwu very irresponsibly, as for whether there will be Zhu Yuanzhang in the future, it is not Li Jing's business.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, you will not be able to show the majesty of the emperor." Wang Pu hid the smile in his heart, Li Jing was born in a martial arts background, so he would say such a view, the emperors of all dynasties and dynasties can't wait to change their names every year, where is like Li Jing, who doesn't want to change their names for decades.

"Since the king has made a decision, it is up to the ministers to obey the order. From today onwards, the year name will be changed to the first year of Hongwu. Li Fu Zhengrong said.

"Okay, it's the first year of Hongwu." Li Jing waved his sleeves and said: "This era name has been changed, and there are many things that need to be changed, such as coins, weights and measures, etc., which need to be changed." This king sees, there is no need to be so troublesome, the coins are still mainly gold, silver, and copper, and there is no need to get any Hongwu Tongbao, as before, the size of the blood dragon sword and shield flag, gold and silver coins represented, weights and measures are the same as those of the previous dynasty, and they do not need to be changed, but all copper coins of the previous dynasty must be recycled, and the people are not allowed to mint coins privately. Li Jing's face was gloomy, coins were untouchable, and whoever dared to imitate them was Li Jing's enemy.

"Your Majesty, it is better to send all the recovered coins to Jiangnan, buy a large number of goods from Jiangnan, and then transport them to the Central Plains, if Jiangnan wants to buy goods, you must use the coins of our dynasty, which can weaken the enemy's strength." Zhang Xiaochun said.

What Zhang Qing said is very true, let Cao Jin do it like this! Jiangnan is very rich, don't look at Fang La's ravages in Jiangnan, but for such a long time, the Central Plains and Hebei have been in constant war, and only Jiangnan has been peaceful, if you use Zhao Song's money in exchange for Jiangnan's materials, it is a good choice, and there is not a lot of Zhao Song's mother money in the household department? You can also make a fuss, use some inferior currency to send to Jiangnan, exchange the materials in Jiangnan to supplement the loss of the Central Plains, during this time, we are blooming on all sides, and we don't know how much grain and grass have been consumed. Li Jing pointed at Zhang Xiaochun and smiled: "I didn't expect Zhang Qing to know how to use the weapon of money." "This is the simplest form of economic warfare, but few people describe it in technical terms.

"Back to the king's words, where does the minister know this, Lord Cao Jin Cao has said it a few times in front of the minister, and the minister thinks there is some truth, so he just said it in front of the king." Zhang Xiaochun hurriedly said modestly.

Li Jing shook his head and said, "Although the point of view was put forward by Cao Jin, you can understand it and express it, which means that you have accepted the new point of view, which is very appreciated." ”

"Your Majesty, I don't know what color the dragon robe is?" Li Fu asked again: "My Tang Dynasty is mainly yellow, Zhao and Song are mainly red, and the emperors of the past dynasties are mainly black, and I also ask the king to make it clear." ”

"Mainly yellow and bright yellow, according to the Datang example! The military uniforms on the soldiers are mainly black. Li Jing thought about it, or use the regular bright yellow, among the colors, bright yellow is precious, black is solemn, so after the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the Zhao Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, most of them are mainly Ming Huang, of which Zhao Song is red, the Ming Dynasty also uses red as the positive color, and the dragon robe also has other colors, and in the Qing Dynasty, the royal family uses bright yellow.

"Yes." Li Fu breathed a sigh of relief, Li Jing's country name is Tang, this has already been decided, and Li Jing himself is the blood of the Li family, and now he is dressed in bright yellow, which is even more commonsense. Li Fu was most afraid that Li Jing would change the color of the royal uniform.

"Anything else?" Li Jing thought about it and found that there was nothing special, so he was ready to disperse the small court.

Everyone glanced at each other, only to see a wry smile on the corner of Li Fu's mouth, Zhao Ding's eyes were slightly closed, Wang Pu was silent, and finally Zhang Xiaochun said: "Your Majesty, everything has been decided, but the queen and the prince have not yet decided on a candidate, and please make it clear to the king." ”

"The queen has her own will at that time, as for the prince, this king is still very young, there is no need to determine the prince now, if there is a royal conquest, I will leave the prince to supervise the country, I will also leave a secret edict, hidden in the Fengxian Palace, if I suffer an accident, a few scholars in the Qilin Pavilion can open the Fengxian Palace, please issue a secret edict." Li Jing thought for a while and said. Although there are many criticisms in the Qing Dynasty, this kind of secret storage system can still be used for reference.
