Chapter Forty-Eight: The Establishment of the Empress
The emperor has no selfish affairs, Liu Yong's wedding is naturally a major event for the whole country of Shu Han, starting from the beginning of the Empress Dowager Wu and his determination of the candidate, after more than two months of careful preparation, that set of complicated etiquette and etiquette is finally going to end.
Shu Han said that he inherited the two Han Dynasty, and the first Han was the most orthodox, so the Shu Han and Jiuqing did not carry the word Qing, and the etiquette of the queen was also compared with the agenda of the first emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty.
In the fourth year of Jianxing, in September, the emperor sent Taichang, Shangshu Ling Nacai, the prime minister, the imperial historian and other forty-nine people to give deerskin crowns and plain clothes as gifts, miscellaneous divination, too often to tell the temple.
In October, Xin Weiri (the eighth day of the first month), sent Che Du Lieutenant Fa Miao, eunuch Ling Chuntuo and others to welcome the queen by public opinion, and boarded the car to call the police.
At the right time, the emperor came to Wuyi Gate to enter the palace hall, and the ministers took their places in turn to salute.
At this moment, Li Yan was calm in the train, his expression was solemn, and his eyes did not squint.
Because, too often Lai Gongzheng sang in a clear and distant voice: "In the winter and October of the fourth year of the Jianxing of the Wei Han Dynasty, the emperor decreed that he would take Ma as the queen!" ”
Lai Gong sang Nuobi, Ma Yingying bowed shallowly, and said: "The concubine greets Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Yongchao dressed in a crown, ascended and sat down, staring at Ma Yingying, who was wearing a colorful phoenix crown, his hair was swaying with golden steps, and he was dressed in an azure silkworm suit...... I have to admit that the Huahua costume chapter is lined with her bright teeth and beautiful at this moment.
Raising his hand, Liu Yongzheng said: "He ordered the imperial doctor to award the queen's seal!" ”
When Li Yan heard this, he went out of class to the palace, bowed to Liu Yong, bowed again, and accepted the ribbon.
Li Yan took the seal ribbon with both hands, and the big Changqiu and the servant knelt down to accept the seal; Then, the female envoy knelt for a long time, and the big Changqiu and the servant gave the seal; Jieyu Xu (granddaughter of Dr. Xu Ci, concubine Liu Yong) knelt down and accepted the seal; Xu Jieyu awarded the beauty Liao Ji, and the beauty knelt down and accepted it to take the queen.
The queen knelt down and bowed, saying: "Bow again, concubine, thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
After that, the Yellow Gate preached the tee and sounded the drum.
Bi, the queen ascended the throne, and the ministers came out in turn, and the ceremony was completed.
…………………………
It stands to reason that the emperor's accession to the throne, the big wedding and the canonization of the crown prince should all be amnesty to the world, but this time Liu Yongli did not give amnesty, of course, this is not Liu Yong's deliberate courtesy of degrading Ma Yingying, but out of national considerations.
Amnesty, that is, the pardon of criminals who are within a certain crime, not only exempts the execution of the sentence, but also makes the crime and punishment disappear fundamentally.
Amnesty to the world, listening to the name is a very generous, high-grade performance, and it is a model of grace.
But in fact, in front of the country's strict rule of law, every amnesty is a violation and trampling on the country's laws!
People are punished and imprisoned, and those who violate the law must be prosecuted has become an empty talk, so China has never really established a society where the law is supreme for thousands of years!
It is precisely because of the serious bad habits of power scheming in Chinese society that those in power often abuse the law and power tricks to accumulate wealth, which seriously exacerbates social contradictions, and therefore it is necessary to alleviate the contradictions with amnesty.
In addition, whenever the country was preparing to raise troops and war broke out, amnesty became a means of gathering soldiers.
In the distant history, the Shu Han during the reign of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang only had an amnesty at the beginning of Liu Chan's succession, and expressed that he and Liu Bei "ruled the world with great virtue, not with small favors" The ideal of governance.
But later, during the 30 years of Liu Chan's reign, Shu Han carried out a total of 11 amnesties, which was too frequent and excessive compared with Liu Bei and Kong Ming's era, but it was also a long time to face the reality that Shu was narrow and weak, and Jiang Wan and Fei Yi, as pragmatic politicians, had to make various compromises.
As a small country with human resources, Shu Han constantly took offense as defense and frequently launched offensives against the big countries in the north.
Therefore, Liu Chan's amnesty decree mostly occurred when the important ministers (Jiang Wan, Fei Yi and Jiang Wei) returned to the army and prepared a new offensive, and the purpose of the amnesty was nothing more than to let those criminal prisoners fill the human resources of the next round of military operations.
It's just that the lesson of the first emperor is still there, and the edict of Luntai's guilt still exists, so he used amnesty to whitewash the peace.
The Three Kingdoms have always been worse and worse than anyone, so the embarrassment of demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall is naturally not only unique to Shu Han, but also Wei and Wu.
The contemporaneous Wei and Wu rulers, Cao Rong, Sun Quan, and Sima and his sons, also relied on frequent amnesties in various places to ease conflicts and continue their rule.
Among them, the most awesome amnesty maniac is the famous tyrant brother Sun Hao, who reigned for 16 years and 14 times, almost catching up with the amnesty once a year, I really don't know where this big brother got so many happy events, and he needs to announce the world and celebrate with the whole world?
Therefore, in order to show that you stick to your principles...... Drawing a line with that group of scum, Liu Yong categorically vetoed too often asking for amnesty. At this point, the politicians with discipline and discipline also expressed their support, since Liu Yan and Liu Zhang's father and son were in charge of Shuzhong, they were lenient in government, and they did not follow up and down.
After all the five people jointly formulated the "Shu Family" with Fa Zheng, Liu Ba and other five people, the law was strict and fair, and the bad atmosphere had been suppressed to the end, but the embankment of thousands of miles collapsed in the anthill, not taking small things as light, and big things as possible.
After the ceremony, Liu Yong changed out of his court clothes and summoned Zhuge Liang and Li Yan in the side hall of the council hall to listen to Li Yan's final report on the Guanghan incident.
Liu Yong was appointed queen, and Li Yan rushed back to Chengdu I, so he didn't have time to make a report on the Guanghan affairs.
"Li Qing, Guanghan's matter, it's really good that Qing can properly solve it!" Liu Yong smiled slightly, and said in an old-fashioned voice.
"Fortunately, thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, your subordinates have used their lives, and the matter has been resolved, and the ministers dare not take credit." Li Yan bowed his hand slightly towards Liu Yong, and replied slowly, as if he really didn't contribute anything.
In front of the political stick, a political stick who can do things, Liu Yongnai had to deal with him: "I heard that when Qing started to pursue it, the powerful clan was very resistant, and the resistance Qing encountered was very great. But I don't know, in the end, why did those landlords cooperate with the pursuit and keep silent? ”
Li Yan also smiled at this point, and it seemed that it was his wit that settled the matter. "Your Majesty doesn't know anything, and the minister has taken two ways to deal with it."
As he spoke, Li Yan stretched out two fingers.
"First, the big clan of the county and the southern governor of the post will be punished without injury, and the chickens and monkeys will be killed."
"2. The people who were forcibly annexed by the landlords remained their tenant farmers and servants, but they were required to register with the government and pay taxes to the imperial court."
Scold! One hand is a stick, and the other hand is a radish.
Liu Yong lamented that Li Yan was indeed a politician and a person with vested interests, and he used the simplest method to solve the seemingly complicated problem, and Li Yan's method made those people not only become tenant farmers and servants of the landlords and powerful families, but also the people of the government, and both sides could benefit without suffering harm to themselves.
It's just that this group of people at the bottom suffered, they were sold, sold for the first time, and sold for the second time!
