As Cai Yan's convincing recital surfaced, the renaming of Yanzhou to Qizhou was confirmed.

Many discerning people can see some ways through this incident - there have been many names in this area of Yanzhou in history, why didn't the sect leader change Yanzhou to other names, but let the rest of the Qi countries have the same name? When it comes to the country of Qi, it first makes people think of the king of Qi.

Obviously, the sect leader is preparing for self-establishment as king!

Thinking of this, the Manchu Dynasty had different ideas about civil and military affairs, some raised their hands to celebrate, and some were worried about the future of the Liu family's great Han dynasty.

What other people think, Luan Yi is too lazy to care. He is now in the diocese with one hand covering the sky, and the people are all looking down on him, and whoever opposes him will surely fall into the condemnation of the crowd.

It's just that what he doesn't want to see is that the people around him who trust him the most oppose him because of this matter and stand on his opposite.

So, in the following time, he successively recruited Guan Yu, then the governor of Xuzhou, Zhao Yun, the governor of Bingzhou, Huang Zhong, the general of Pingliao, Lu Bu, Qingzhou, Xunyu, and others into Jinan.

They are all smart people, and through the establishment of Qizhou, they can also see Luan Yi's next plan.

In this regard, whether it is Guan Yu, who is Luan Yi's brother, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, generals who have followed Luan Yi for more than ten years, all know him very well as a person, and they are greatly moved after witnessing his love for the people like a son.

At the same time, after so many years of getting along with Luan Yi, their thinking has undergone earth-shaking changes under the influence of Our Lady and Luan Yi. The traditional thinking of "Heaven and Earth Monarch and Teacher" has been removed from their bones, and they have instead understood the true meaning of the great and virtuous people in the world. In the past, the Han Dynasty was disappointed after experiencing the Second Emperor Huan Ling, and the persecution of Luan Yi repeatedly during Emperor Huan's reign made them even more chilled. They are becoming more and more aware that only Luan Yi can make the people live a better life, and only by letting Luan Yi stand higher can the real peace of the world be realized.

Therefore, after listening to Luan Yi's question, instead of opposing it, he bluntly supported Luan Yi to simply establish the state of Qi and proclaimed himself the king of Qi.

Seeing that everyone spoke in unison, Luan Yi breathed a sigh of relief, now that foreign affairs are peaceful, the overall situation of Hebei has been decided, Karasuma has been defeated, and the Saiwaihu people have been deeply afraid of the church since then; The time has come for him to realize his long-planned plan.

At the end of February of the 10th year of the Holy Dynasty, strange events occurred one after another in various parts of the diocese. On 22 February, a fisherman from Qizhou caught a large turtle more than five feet long and weighing more than 100 catties in the Yellow River. Not only have the fishermen by the river never seen such a big turtle, but even the elders in the village have never heard of it. What's even more surprising is that between the textures on the turtle's back, there are two lines of words vaguely exposed, and the baby who has read the book in the village reads that the line on the left is written "Wen Wu first, pointing out the country"; The line on the right reads "Wu Wu is the second, ruling the world".

The fishermen were amazed, so they took this turtle to the educated people in the village to analyze it. The student looked at it for a while, and the word "point" in "pointing to the country" is also "straight" and "point" are also one point and one horizontal, and most of the mountains of the Han Dynasty are from the northeast to the southwest, which is very similar to an apostrophe; The rivers of the Han Dynasty flow from west to east, which is similar to that of the Han River. Combined, the point is straight and skimmed, which corresponds to the word "Wen" in the previous sentence.

Look at the second half of the sentence, "Wu has no second, dominates the world". The lower part of the middle of the sky in "Tianxia" is similar to the text, and it is also a skimming and a pinch, and the word "two" comes horizontally, and it is not exactly a "Qi" under the word "Wen"?

In addition, the text appears on the back of the turtle, which is commonly known as Wang Ba, which is the same as Wang Ba......

When the sentence was explained here, the scholar suddenly brightened up and said excitedly: "Our Lady apparilates, this is saying that the country of Qi is going to prosper!" ”

Since the country of Qi is going to prosper, new problems are coming again, the country of Qi is going to prosper, and who is the new king of Qi. The answer is about to come out, and it is well written on the back of the turtle "There is no first text, pointing to the country; Wu Wu is the second, and he dominates the world", and Luan Yi has the praise of "Wen can raise the pen to settle the world, and Wu can go on the horse to determine the world", the combination of the two - "Isn't the sect leader the King of Qi who belongs to the mandate of heaven?" ”

As soon as this incident came out, it quickly spread by ten or ten, and then it was published in the name of miracles by the "Holy Light Daily", and the scope of circulation was further expanded, and a certain official nature was added.

People everywhere believed in this miracle.

Coincidentally...... At the beginning of March, due to heavy rain in Qizhou, after the rain was clear, some Taishan villagers actually found a tomb in the middle of the mountain. Come to think of it, the door of this tomb was washed open by a mudslide.

The people were very fearful of the deceased, and did not dare to make a mistake easily, and hurried down the mountain to report to the officials after being frightened.

The local government and the church jointly entered the tomb that day to investigate, and originally wanted to reseal the tomb as the spirit of the deceased in heaven. However, after a general observation of the outer scale of the mausoleum, it was found that the owner of this mausoleum was extraordinary, at least a prince.

After some careful inspection, through the murals and texts in the tomb, they found that the owner of this ancient tomb was none other than the famous Jiang Shang Jiang Ziya.

As we all know, after Jiang Ziya assisted King Wu to conquer the Emperor, his fief was in Qi and he was the first King of Qi in history. The appearance of his mausoleum, which had been sealed for thousands of years, once again pushed the call for the revival of the Qi country to a climax.

At the same time, visions arose everywhere. In the distant Jizhou, there is a wheat field in the middle of the farmland that has been inexplicably upset overnight. Looking from above, what appeared in the wheat field was a line of text "Qi Guoxing, Luan surnamed Wang".

Deeds like this were staged all over the diocese in just one month, and the people undoubtedly associated them with miracles, but they did not expect that they were actually made up by Luan Yi for the sake of shock.

The so-called divine turtle is a hundred-year-old king eight that Luan Yi inadvertently bought. Luan Yi saw that it was very big and quite immortal, so he asked people to engrave words on its back and release it into the river overnight. On the second day, the "turtle" was indeed caught by the fishermen.

As for Jiang Ziya's tomb, it was actually built by Luan Yi from the old to the new, and the layout and decoration are all in accordance with the pre-Qin style, and the funeral goods are the antiques of the Zhou Dynasty that he bought back at a high price. Therefore, such a tomb should not be said to be seen by ordinary people, even experts with certain archaeological ability will think that he is the tomb of Jiang Ziya.

The easiest of all the "miracles" is the oracle in the field. Luan Yi randomly selected a wheat field in Jizhou, and then asked people to spray the wheat field with a high-concentration salt solution overnight according to the structure of "Qi Guoxing, Luan surnamed Wang". The wheat grass is soaked in concentrated salt, and the water is lost and withers rapidly, and finally the effect of the "wheat field oracle" in advance.

……

As a result, under the instigation of rounds of "miracles", the diocese called on Luan Yi from the official to the people to establish the Qi state, and the voice of leading the king of Qi became louder and louder.

Luan Yi pretended to shirk for a while, and finally "reluctantly" could not be unanimously respected by the world, and asked the young emperor Liu Xiezuo to change Qizhou to Qi and crown him the king of Qi.

The young emperor knows better than anyone that Luan Yi's change of Yanzhou to Qizhou is the first step on the road to power, the second step is to lead the king of Qi at the moment, and one step forward is the end of the Han River. He naturally didn't want to agree to Luan Yi's request, but right now, although the knife was not on his neck, the palace was full of Luan Yi's people from the inside out, so he couldn't refuse, so he could only play obediently.

However, on the road to Luan Yi's reign, there are also many opponents. Luan Yi's father-in-law, too often Cai Yong bore the brunt. Fortunately, knowing that this matter is the trend of the times, so the opposition is not fierce, neither came to reprimand Luan Yi to make him unable to come to the stage, nor did he do anything to obstruct the process of becoming the king, but just found Luan Yi and said in a low tone that he was old and wanted to return to his hometown to stay in Chen.

Cai Yong, as a famous man in the dynasty, looks up at home, and his students are all over the world. If he resigned, his past protégés would inevitably think that Shizun left the court because he was not used to seeing Luan Yi as king, which attracted criticism and affected the stability of the court. Luan Yi naturally couldn't let him do it so easily, so he dragged Cai Yan to Cai's mansion to persuade him, but repeated persuasions were fruitless.

Seeing that the old man's attitude was really resolute, Luan Yi was very helpless. After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to go sideways...... He knew that revising history was Cai Yong's greatest ambition in his life, and decided to propose that Cai Yong resign and then exert his residual heat, and write the history of more than 200 years from Guangwu Zhongxing to the present. Once Cai Yong responded, although he was no longer in the official name, he was still doing things for the imperial court, so the negative impact of resignation no longer existed.

Sure enough, Cai Yong immediately became interested when he heard that Luan Yi had funded him to repair history, and he asked Luan Yi meaningfully, "Let me repair history for my father, isn't Ziqi afraid that my father will write you as a rebel minister who plots to seize the throne?" ”

Luan Yi smiled, "If you let those who are biased towards me revise history, the history written is all beautified and embellished embroidered pillows, not real history; If those who hate me are allowed to compile history books, the words that are written are cynical and vicious, and they are very different from historical facts. Rather than that, it would be better for you to write it, and I believe that the history books compiled by you can explain a true past to the world. At the same time, in order to ensure the fairness of the history book, I will never disturb Lord Yue's revision of the book, let alone put forward any opinions and suggestions. Here, I swear to Our Lady that I will not even glance at the manuscript in my lifetime, and that everything right and wrong will be left to posterity. ”

Cai Yong was shocked, so he put his mind at ease, "Okay! The old man should do this. ”

After Luan Yi settled Cai Yong, he successively appeased the old people in the court. Taiwei Yang Biao also made a request to return to his hometown, but he is different from Cai Yong, not because he wants to blackmail Luan Yi, but at the age of 68, he really can't do it.

Luan Yi lamented that time had flown by, and allowed Yang Biao to resign from the post of lieutenant, but did not allow him to resign from the position of priest in the military division university hall. In the ensuing conversation, Luan Yi asked him to go to the school as much as his physical condition allowed to give lectures to the students, so as to cultivate more good generals who are worthy of great responsibilities in the future.
