Chapter 207: Enthronement Ceremony
Three days later, Qin Tian's enthronement ceremony will also be held!
There are some cumbersome rules that Qin Tian must do in person, such as on the day of the enthronement ceremony, he has to go to the altar to worship God.
"Isn't it the enthronement ceremony? As for being so excited? Qin Tian looked at the women waiting for him to change his clothes, with an excited expression on his face, and couldn't help but quip.
"Of course, Brother Qin, you're going to be the emperor, of course people are excited!" Wu Meiniang said with a smile.
"By the way? Why didn't the Changle people come? Qin Tian saw that Princess Changle didn't come, so he asked.
"I just went to see her, and she didn't seem to be in a good mood." Situ Yanran replied.
When Princess Changle was mentioned, everyone was silent and did not continue to mention it.
After Qin Tian changed into the emperor's uniform, the group walked to the Xuanwu Gate and ascended the altar, he wanted to ascend the throne and become the emperor under the watchful eyes of all people!
Hundreds of civil and military officials, soldiers and ordinary people, crowds of people, Qin Tian climbed the altar and shouted loudly: "I, Qin Tian, obey the mandate of heaven and rebuild a new dynasty, and now I am here to change the name of the country to: Great Qin United Empire!" ”
Hearing that Qin Tian changed the name of the country to the Great Qin United Empire, everyone collectively knelt down and bowed: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Qin Tian watched everyone bow, he didn't expect things to develop to this day, at the beginning, his idea was just to play the world, he didn't think that one day he would be the emperor, and he also opened up a dynasty of his own.
This feeling is like a dream, since I have chosen to take this path, I have to go on even if I cry.
All the people celebrate, the whole country is boiling!
After the ceremony, Qin Tian and the others walked to the splendid hall, Qin Tian slowly walked up the steps, came to the dragon chair, watched for a while, and then shook the imperial robe domineeringly, looking down at the ministers.
The civil and military officials, seeing Qin Tian sitting on the dragon chair, the ministers knelt down and bowed: "We see the new emperor, may my emperor live long live, long live, long live!" ”
"Zhong Aiqing, flat!" Qin Tian said majestically.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Qin Tian saw that everyone was up, and then continued: "When I first ascended to the Great Treasure, I will definitely do my best to seek the well-being of the common people in the world, I have decided to grant amnesty to the world, except for the heinous, all of them will be released, and I hope that all Aiqing will assist in creating a prosperous world." ”
Qin Tian also experienced what it was like to be an emperor, these words were all a routine, and every new emperor ascended the throne said so, and this is how it was played in the TV series.
The next thing is naturally the canonization ceremony, Qin Tian shouted: "Tang Juncheng, come forward and listen to the seal!" ”
"Tang Juncheng knocks to see Your Majesty!" Tang Juncheng walked out of the crowd and got down on one knee.
"Tang Juncheng fought bravely to kill the enemy, meritorious service to the country, should be rewarded for meritorious deeds, specially awarded Zhonglang General, and given the founding county marquis, hereditary replacement, 1,000 households in the food town, 10,000 taels of silver, and 1,000 horses of silk."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Tang Juncheng excitedly gave a military salute.
Qin Tian nodded, and looked at Chen Zhihao again: "Chen Zhihao stepped forward to listen to the seal." ”
Chen Zhihao was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was silent, he stepped forward, knelt on one knee, gave a military salute, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Zhihao knocks to see His Majesty the Emperor!" ”
"Chen Zhihao pioneered the way, made great contributions, specially sealed Zhonglang General, gave the founding county marquis, hereditary replacement, 1,000 households, 10,000 taels of silver, and 1,000 horses of silk."
"His Majesty Emperor Xie Wu is rewarded!" Chen Zhihao was also very excited.
In fact, their credit is really not big, they are basically soy sauce, and the main credit is Qin Tian alone, the reason why they can be so rewarded is mainly because of the grace of the dragon! But Qin Tian gave them such a heavy reward, which made them flattered! The Marquis, in particular, couldn't believe it, at this moment, they were very glad that their choice was right.
"In addition, all the Qin family soldiers were promoted to the third level, crowned the founding baron, ate 300 households, and rewarded 1,000 taels of silver." Anyway, Baron Datang is no longer valuable, Qin Tian can't treat these soldiers badly, and he is still very willing to his own people, Qin Tian.
Hearing that everyone in the Qin family army had been rewarded, they were both envious and a little bitter. There is no way, these people are all from the dragon's merits, as for themselves and others, not to mention the reward, it would be good to be able to keep their position, for Qin Tian's reward, none of them were unconvinced.
The first major thing Qin Tian did when he ascended the throne was to enjoy with the people and be exempt from agricultural taxes.
As soon as this decision came out, it was directly opposed by everyone.
"Your Majesty, taxation is the foundation of the country, and if taxes are not levied, then the treasury will be empty and the country will be in chaos."
"I said I didn't charge agricultural taxes, but I didn't say I didn't charge business taxes!" Qin Tian glanced blankly.
There are many people who stood up to advise, but they were strongly vetoed by Qin Tian, he has a way to make money, there is no need to collect agricultural taxes, and the taxes in the Tang Dynasty are still relatively heavy, and the food left by the people after paying taxes every year is only enough for their own food, and some are not even enough.
Now that Qin Tian is the emperor, he has an extra responsibility on his shoulders, and he wants everyone in his people to have enough food and clothing.
Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, Qin Tian's voice among the masses will be high, and he will earn more charm points, and he will be able to open more functions of the system in order to be more chic.
For a few days, Qin Tian finally experienced the taste of being an emperor once, the ancient etiquette was more cumbersome, and Qin Tian was also busy to death.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Tian simply handed over all the big and small affairs in the court to Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others to take care of, and he became the shopkeeper.
A country is so big, Qin Tian is really difficult to manage, he doesn't have that ability, as the saying goes, professional things are left to professional people to do, with Fang Xuanling, a good expert in handling government affairs, he is very relieved! He prepared his money-making plan with peace of mind.
Li Shimin's family was forced to leave Chang'an under the military conquest of Qin Tian, and his Xuanjia army escorted him all the way, while the brothers who fought side by side in the past all left him, and only those diehards still followed him, and they believed that Li Shimin would one day come back.
"I will come back, this shame, I will definitely pay it back!" Li Shimin looked at the city wall of Chang'an, his face covered with haze.
"Your Majesty, where shall we go next?" The eldest grandson Wuji rode to Li Shimin's side and asked.
"Taiyuan!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
After leaving Chang'an, he went directly to Taiyuan, which was the birthplace of the Li family, and Li Shimin was ready to accumulate strength in Taiyuan and prepare for a comeback.
In an underground palace outside Chang'an, the lights were bright, and there were three people standing in the innermost, two of whom were the black-robed envoy and Shangguan Wan'er.
"Master, now Qin Tian has registered as emperor in Chang'an, and he has changed the name of the country to the Great Qin United Empire!" The black-robed envoy said, in fact, he didn't understand why the master cared so much about Qin Tian's affairs.
