Chapter 0627: Enthronement and Wedding
On June 17, Li Gan, who had previously stayed in Bashu, sent an envoy to surrender to Feng Ziying.
At this point, all the military power of the three feudatories had disappeared, and the short-lived Tianshun Dynasty was declared completely extinct.
The handling of the family members of the three feudal clans has become a rather controversial matter.
Previously, Jia Min took the family of King Dongping and sent them to Beihai, which made some old ministers of the former dynasty very dissatisfied, and even Ji Mingluan complained about it, thinking that it was too cheap for the Song family.
However, this matter is Jia Min's decision, and the people have already been sent away, and they are on the waterway, although they are dissatisfied, they are helpless about it.
The Han family's handling is relatively simpler.
The puppet emperor Han Tiandou, the Ningguta general Han Tiankui, Han Qi and other main men of the Han family have all died, and the remaining female dependents will be sent into exile.
The leaders of the Li family, Li Guozhong and Li Guoxin, are dead. Because when Li Gan surrendered, he had an agreement with Feng Ziying, the Li family handed over their property, leaving only the basic livelihood, and all the men in the family were reduced to titles, official positions and fame, and demoted to commoners.
Feng Ziying agreed to this condition.
This matter was also opposed by Scholar Lu, Yang Kui and others, but under the persuasion of He Jialin and Luo Xingshan, no one spoke again in the end.
So in the end, Jia Min and other Beihai people did not come forward, Chang'an made a will, and the matter was settled.
However, the Li family wants to leave the old nest in Guangxi and move to the northwest, the purpose is to cut off their old ties and prevent them from having a chance to make a comeback.
Although Li Qian was reluctant to move to the northwest, he did not dare to disobey. In fact, I am very lucky to get this result.
From this point of view, the Li family is still very grateful to Feng Ziying in their hearts.
The Jia family in Beihai sent a letter, according to the meaning of the old lady, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, regarding Jia Min's marriage, due to the long distance, the Jia family could not come in person, so they entrusted Jia Min's brother Jia Lian to be the master, instead of the elders in the family, to handle Jia Min's marriage.
Jia Lian handled the marriage between Jia Min and Chang'an.
Regarding this marriage, there are also ups and downs in the middle, and there are constant arguments.
There was no objection to the marriage itself, and the dispute was mainly over the name and the date of the marriage.
Although there is a precedent in history for Wu Zetian to be the emperor, there has never been a precedent for a marriage like Chang'an and Jia Min.
This title is not easy to determine. It was Chang'an who became a wife, and the ministers also felt that they were at a loss.
So Jia Min was positioned as a colt.
Although this statement is somewhat reluctant, it is not entirely unfounded.
Because when Yuan Heng married Chang'an to Jia Min, Chang'an was still a princess, not an empress.
The Beihai side is naturally not satisfied with this positioning, but they can't come up with a better plan.
In the end, Jia Min waved his hand and said something.
"Well, forget it, just don't be a colt. Anyway, we'll be gone in a few days, and they can call it whatever they like. Even if you call me a cat or a dog, I can't hear it. ”
Seeing Jia Min say this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These things are really verbose, and they are even more strenuous than wars.
Positioning Jia Min as a colt, Scholar Lu and Scholar Ji considered a great victory. As for what Jia Min positioned Chang'an as, whether it was a wife or something else, this question was too complicated and tricky, so he avoided this question.
Jia Min also has a tacit understanding, so he doesn't mention it, as if there is no such thing.
The matter of the name has been decided, and the matter of the marriage date has gone wrong again.
The Beihai side believes that they should get married as soon as possible, and then withdraw to Beihai.
Chang'an insisted that he must wait for Chang'an to ascend the throne before getting married. In this way, Chang'an can be made stronger, and Dade is more decent.
At the same time, at the time of marriage, Chang'an announced by the way that Jia Min would be the king of Beihai, and Beihai would pay tribute to Dade.
The two sides quarreled over this, and they were very happy, and finally reached a compromise, and Chang'an got married after ascending the throne. However, there is no need to crown Jia Min as the king of Beihai, Beihai is not a subject country of Dade, and as for the title of minister, it is even more exempt.
After the marriage was finalized, Feng Ziying's first brigade also returned from the south. Previously, Chen Yejun's second brigade had arrived in the imperial capital, and so far, all the soldiers and horses in Beihai were in the imperial capital.
When Feng Ziying came back, Jia Min became the shopkeeper. handed over all the affairs to Feng Ziying to preside, with the assistance of Chen Yejun and Wei Ruolan, and they went out to negotiate with the Dade court.
The imperial court proposed that Jiafu could return to the imperial capital, and the titles of Rongguo Gong and Ning Guogong, which had been cut before, would be restored.
Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun and Wei Ruolan can fill the titles of Zhenguo Gong, Hou Guogong of Hou Xiaolian's family, and Xuguo Gong of Shi Guangzhu's family, but they were all rejected one by one.
Because of the meritorious service of supporting Chang'an, Liu Fang, Chen Ruiwen, and Ma Shangde restored the title of Guogong, and the three of them were hereditary Guogong.
Although the name has been restored, these three have been beheaded before, and now there are only these three people left, and they actually have no power anymore.
On the issue of South and North Ventura, the negotiations were the smoothest.
The Wendura side proposed that the imperial court pay for the military expenses of their troops this time, and pay compensation to the fallen soldiers. For the time being, the imperial court did not set up prefectures in the Wendura grassland, and if they wanted to set up them in the future, they had to agree to them.
Windula did not pay taxes to the imperial court, and all previous taxes were no longer collected.
The court lifted the embargo and quota restrictions on various substances in Windura, opened trade routes, and opened free trade.
The imperial court proposed that a prefecture and county would be set up in Wendura after 20 years, and in order to reflect the fact that Wendura belonged to the great virtues, Wendura in the south and north would each pay a tax of 2,000 taels of silver to the court every year.
This amount of two thousand taels is really insignificant to Vendura, but it is only symbolic.
Simari and Temir felt that the court was also sincere, so they readily agreed.
The Wendura had achieved their goal, leaving Simmari and Temir to represent North and South Vendura respectively at the enthronement ceremony in Chang'an, and the rest began to withdraw their troops.
The route of withdrawal was the same as when they came, first to Tianjin Wei, and then to withdraw by water.
When the troops were withdrawn, almost all the leading figures of Jia Min, Chang'an, Beihai and the imperial court came to see them off, and Chang'an rewarded them with gifts, giving Wendula people enough face.
According to the auspicious day chosen by the Qin Tianjian, the enthronement ceremony of Chang'an was held on June 26.
On the Beihai side, the imperial court invited representatives from all walks of life, envoys from Goryeo, Ryukyu, Java, Cochin, Siam and other subject countries, and representatives of border tribes such as Mogu, Shatuo, and Tebo to participate in the meeting.
The country name was restored to Dade, the year name was set as Chang'an, and this year's era was the first year of Chang'an.
Then there is a series of procedures such as worshiping the heavens and ancestors, announcing to the world, and sealing officials and knights.
King Beijing, Scholar Lu, Scholar Ji, and Chu Yuanji are scholars of the Military Aircraft Department.
There were four people in total, two fewer than before.
Yang Kui is the left capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and is in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Xiu Tonggui is the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, which can be regarded as an official reinstatement.
Zhou Tong was the commander of the Jinyi Army and the commander of the Nine Gates.
Zuo Linliang is the Minister of the Interior, He Jialin is the Governor of Zhili, and Luo Xingshan is the Yin of Fengtianfu.
Zhao Dahai was the general of Ningguta, and Xu Mingtao was the general of Bu Kui and led the military and political affairs of Tongyuanbao. Feng Kui is a general of Shanhaiguan and directs the military affairs around Shanhaiguan.
Jiang Ming, the former servant of the Criminal Department, and the former Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Liu Fang, Chen Ruiwen and Ma Shangde, etc., also have their own appointments.
Because he knew that Ma Qingshan had the best relationship with Jia Min, Chang'an originally planned to ask him to go to Jinling and be appointed as the Yin of Tianfu Mansion, but Ma Qingshan was unwilling to go to the south and was willing to return to the northwest, so he asked him to pick the position of Shaanxi according to the inspector.
According to Ma Qingshan's merits, he could have obtained a higher position than this position, but he was unwilling to do anything else, and Chang'an fulfilled his wish.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone from all sides was in the imperial capital, the wedding ceremony of Chang'an and Jia Min was held six days later.
The arrangement of the wedding procedure is also nerve-wracking. After discussing and discussing, I finally came up with a nondescript procedure.
first took Chang'an to Rongguo Mansion, which can be regarded as taking over the new daughter-in-law. The elders of the Jia family did not come, so they temporarily invited Jia Daixiu, the patriarch of the Jia family, to serve as the elders of the Jia family.
This position, if it was a wheel, should have been Jia Dairu's, but because Jia Dairu's wife had died, Jia Daixiu and his wife would fill the vacancy.
For this reason, Jia Dairu is still quite angry.
However, because the hardware was not qualified, I had to admit it.
After worshipping in Jiafuli, he finally returned to the palace and worshipped again.
The immediate family members of the royal family either fled and were killed, or were brutally killed by the three feudatories, and there were no elders left.
Because the Son of Heaven of Yuanheng had entrusted the marriage of Chang'an to Scholar Ji, Scholar Ji represented the Son of Heaven of Yuanheng and acted as the elder of Chang'an.
No one objected to this, but praised it one after another. People not only blessed the emperor, but also moved by the fact that Scholar Ji lived up to the emperor's entrustment.
All of a sudden, it became a beautiful conversation in the court and among the people.
After the ceremony was held in the palace, a banquet was held in the palace, and the cave room was also set up in the palace.
In fact, this has a profound meaning.
First, this means that Jia Min is a concubine, deliberately emphasizing his status as a son-in-law, in order to accompany Chang'an.
The other, also to highlight the status of the Chang'an Emperor.
The emperor is the co-lord of the world, and within the four seas, it is not the king's land. The palace is in the world, how can the emperor's wedding day go to the cave room elsewhere?
This is naturally the idea of those ministers, and Jia Min doesn't bother to care about it.
For him, as long as he can have a cave with a beauty, let alone a palace, it doesn't matter if it's a random thatched hut.
As for what others think and think, he is even more lazy to pay attention.
Feng Ziying and others also felt that this wedding was a bit ridiculous, but they couldn't come up with a better plan. I can't find anything wrong with this plan proposed by the imperial court.
When Jia Min asked for their opinions, they collectively pretended to be stupid, and avoided them on the grounds that this was Jia Min's personal private matter and it was not easy to intervene.
In the end, Jia Lian was his own brother, and finally accepted the plan on behalf of the Jia family.
The news of the wedding spread, and there was some discussion among the people.
Some say that it is a change of customs and praise. Some also said that it was not polite, but they were just secretly discussing a few words in private.
When the Jinyi Army and the Five Cities Terracotta Division began to visit the people and ask for their opinions on this wedding, they heard one-sided praise.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, some officials were opportunistic and wanted to curry favor with the emperor. So I wanted to make a fuss about this wedding.
Dig up some kind of people's fold and get some people to sign it. There are not many literate people, so they get some people to press their handprints, saying that the emperor's wedding is so good that it should be implemented all over the world.
Chang'an won the world for the first time, and then got married, and finally got together with Jia Min, and was a little dizzy when he was happy.
One of the most important procedures is that in addition to worshipping heaven and earth at the man's house, he must also go to the woman's house to worship heaven and earth once.
In the end, under the persuasion of Jia Min, King Beijing, Scholar Ji, Scholar Lu and other major ministers all objected, so it was considered to be a resignation.
