Because of the sudden death of the emperor, the annual leave of the ministers of the imperial court was naturally in vain, and the various yamen did not wait until the seventh day of the new year, and the second day of the new year was officially opened, and began to act in government affairs, and in accordance with the rituals stipulated by the Ministry of Rites, they entered the palace every day to cry.

And the bigwigs of the imperial court are even more busy, especially the Ministry of Rites is the busiest.

In other words, the department of the Ministry of Rites is a typical department that is busy when it is busy, idle when it is idle, and there is nothing to do in ordinary times, but once it encounters a large-scale ceremony, the court is up and down, up to the royal family and hundreds of officials, down to the small officials and common people, and all kinds of affairs are in charge of the Ministry of Rites.

And there is no doubt that there is no more important and cumbersome ceremony than the funeral of Emperor Daxing.

So yesterday all night, in addition to the cabinet, the busiest department in the imperial court was the Ministry of Rites, not only to draw up the funeral rites of the emperor overnight, but also to supervise the ministers in the ceremonies.

Finally, when the edict was announced to the world, and the most important part of the ceremony did not go wrong, Feng Shangshu rushed to the Qianqing Palace without stopping!

"Ministers, see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

After entering the hall, several ministers paid homage as usual, and the situation was no different from that in the East Palace a few days ago, but it made Zhu Changluo slightly in a trance.

In the end, although Zhu Changluo lived in the Qianqing Palace, there were some taboos that he still had to keep, so he gave up the throne, sat down next to the table temporarily placed on the side, and raised his hand.

"Excuse me! A few gentlemen have been working hard since yesterday, but they are tired! How about having breakfast here at Hongu? ”

He has been very tired from last night's vigil to now, and these few people must not be much better, just looking at the red eyes, it is estimated that they have stayed awake all night, and they have been busy until now.

Wang Xijue and Zhen Zhenji glanced at each other, but they arched their hands.

"Your Royal Highness Xie is kind, but now that Emperor Daxing is newly mourned, there are still court affairs that must be disposed of, and the ministers dare not rest!"

"That's fine, it's a blessing for the country that your lords are in charge of the country's affairs, in that case, if you have something to say, please say it!"

Zhu Changluo stared at a few people for a moment, sat up straight, and said.

"Yes, Your Highness, Emperor Daxing has passed away, and the temple number should be set as early as possible to avoid chaos!"

Now that he is down to business, he naturally wants to come one by one, and Feng Qi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, stepped forward and held the music in his hand.

Zhu Changluo's entourage was still Wang An, and he hurriedly walked down to take over the song.

"His Royal Highness Qiqi, the ancient rites are cloudy, the ancestors have merit and the sect is virtuous, the Daxing Emperor is the emperor of Muzong, the virtue is notorious, the benevolent government loves the people, lives in the deep palace and the court bureau, and governs it quietly and inactively, so the Ministry of Rites is discussed, the temple number of the Daxing Emperor should be respected as the Divine Sect!"

Feng Qi was the head of the Ministry of Rites earlier, and later after Li Tingji entered the cabinet, he officially became the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and he was very familiar with various rituals, although he was very busy, but he was not chaotic at all.

However, after Zhu Changluo heard this, he frowned slightly.

The temple number of Shenzong is not good in the imperial temple number, and it is not bad, Anren Lizheng is said to be a god, the saint is unknowable and God, and the people are inaction, which is a medium evaluation.

Naturally, it is not unreasonable for the Ministry of Rites to draw up this temple number, what is the holy is unknowable, what is the rule of the people and inaction, the emperor has not been in the court for more than ten years, and has not convened the ministers on a large scale to discuss politics, but it is not the holy unknowable, even so, the people in the court have not made any big trouble, but is it not the inaction of governing the people?

In addition, above the previous dynasties, there was only one Han emperor whose temple name was respected as Shenzong before this, that is, Zhao Ji, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, under his rule, there was a very powerful figure who did something hostile to the entire imperial court.

This name is Wang Anshi, and the most famous deed in his life is called Wang Anshi's change!

And now under the rule of the Emperor Daxing, there is also a powerful person who has also done something that has provoked impeachment in the imperial court.

This person's name is Zhang Juzheng, and the most famous deed in his life is called a whip!

Both of them caused a huge storm in the imperial court, which is enough to go down in history, so it can be said that the Ministry of Rites took a lot of effort to formulate this temple number.

In all fairness, this evaluation is more pertinent, but what makes Zhu Changluo frown is that this Feng Qi is a little too arrogant......

"What about the nickname?"

Zhu Changluo quietly put the music aside and asked.

Seeing this scene, Wang Xijue sensed that something was wrong, frowned, but did not speak.

Feng Qi continued.

"Back to Your Highness, in accordance with my court law, the Ministry of Rites has drawn up, and Emperor Daxing will be called Fan Tianhe, Daozhe, Sudun, Jianguang, Wu'an, Renzhi, and Emperor Xiaoxian!"

The name is different from the temple number, in fact, at the beginning, not every emperor has a temple number, only the emperor of the virtue and high medal, will be awarded the temple number, and the name is the standard for evaluating the life of an emperor, before the Tang Dynasty, it should be said that this name is more fair, and before the Tang Dynasty, all the emperor's name is generally in one word to two words.

But since the Tang Dynasty, there has been a brilliant emperor, the famous Heavenly Khan Li Shimin!

His old man thinks that there are good and bad things like nicknames, how can this work, the emperors of my old Li family must be wise and martial emperors.

Therefore, Li Shimin gave his father Li Yuan's nickname, which reached an unprecedented seven words, called Shenyao Dasheng Daguangxiao Emperor, and his initiative was faithfully implemented by later generations, basically the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, the nickname has changed from the original one to more than four words, the most powerful Tang Suzong, his nickname has reached a terrifying nine words!

Since then, the Song and Ming dynasties have continued to use this method, which has led to the proliferation of nicknames, with more and more words, and has lost its original role in assessing the life of the emperor, so it is understandable that the emperor's nickname is getting longer and longer.

The name drawn up by the Ministry of Rites for Emperor Daxing is a total of nine characters, but in fact, the most important thing is the last word!

Of course, although the role of the name to evaluate the life of the emperor has been infinitely weakened, the ministers are not without the slightest brain, and this role has been transformed into the temple number, and although there will be countless beautiful words in front of the name, it will still fall on the last word in the end.

Xu is because of the temple number, and this nickname on the Ministry of Rites is considered to be a name.

"Receiving Lu is said to be evident in the sky, holy virtue is said to be visible, virtue and beauty are said to be obvious, and the nickname proposed by Feng Shangshu is very reasonable!"

Zhu Changluo nodded, showed a smile, and spoke.

But Wang Xijue looked at him with a smile, but there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

"However, about this temple number, does Feng Shangshu and Yuan Fu think about it a little more?"

Sure enough, Zhu Changluo's smile remained unchanged, and he seemed to be very sincere.
