"Damn, the yellow pigskin is really shrewd enough, when the previous dynasty was about to completely suppress the rebels from all walks of life, he suddenly made a difficult attack and shot many times, so that the Ming army had to return to help, return the troops, and resist their invasion, so that the rebel army won a chance to breathe, and in the shortest possible time, it was able to quickly recover its strength."

After Yuan Zongdi finished talking to himself, Song Xiance showed a dignified look, and then said with emotion: "The pig birthmark is really a good hand, and the wishful thinking is clanging, so that the Ming court is tired of dealing with the rebels and the Tartars, so as to consume the overall strength of our Han people. ”

Of course, compared with the emotion of strategists such as Song Xiance and the abruptness of those old officials of the previous dynasty, some generals of Li Jiajun were even more surprised, although they had long been in contact with the eight major profiteers in Shanxi and bought grain, but in any case, they could not have imagined that they actually colluded with Tartars and sold extremely sensitive things such as weapons.

However, these generals were relieved when they thought about it, since the eight major profiteers dared to trade with their own "anti-thieves", secretly buying and selling grain, and stumbling the officials and soldiers from time to time, of course, they also had the courage to secretly sell grain and weapons to yellow pig skins.

The thief, since ancient times, has been the object of public wrath.

At this moment, when the eight major profiteers in Shanxi colluded with the yellow pigskin, their final fate was doomed, even if Li Zicheng issued an order to exterminate the three clans in almost cold-blooded, no one pleaded for them, but a very happy look.

Compared with civil strife, people hate traitors who collude with foreign enemies and help barbarians slaughter their own people, which is an unforgivable crime!

At this time, just when everyone was expressing their common indignation, Niu Jinxing stood up and said loudly: "King Qi, since ancient times, if the name is not right, it will not be good, and if it is not good, it will not be done, and the subordinates think that the establishment of the Kaiyuan Dynasty is the top priority. Otherwise, it will be impossible to conquer all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, let alone win the hearts of the people. ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone in the hall suddenly became active.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Chunchen, who inherited Chengguo Gong in the Ming Dynasty, stood up, bowed and saluted: "King Qi, my subordinates think that what Mr. Niu said is very true, the opening of the dynasty and the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty is the top priority, and the armies will be famous for their actions, and there are some things that will be more convenient to do." ”

Chen Yan, a former former servant of the Imperial Rites Department and a scholar of Dongge University, also stood up and echoed: "King Chuang, you should go further, ascend the throne as the emperor, and build the country!" This is what everyone is looking forward to, and it is a great blessing in the world! ”

In an instant, all kinds of persuasions sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and many people in the hall persuaded them one after another, allowing Li Zicheng to ascend the throne as emperor and establish a new national name.

Obviously, before everyone came to the main hall, some people had secretly communicated and reached a consensus, otherwise they would not have been so tacit.

At this moment, Li Zicheng knows very well that these people in front of him may support themselves as emperors from the bottom of their hearts, but they are also selfish, once they become emperors, the status of these people will also rise.

However, although these thoughts flashed in his heart and he guessed that some people had other selfish intentions, Li Zicheng did not resist the proposal to ascend the throne and become emperor, but had inexplicable expectations and was very excited.

Compared with the "Li Zicheng" in history, his foundation is particularly solid, the surrounding environment is not bad, the Qing army lost 100,000 troops at once, and within a few years, it was no longer able to invade the border.

In this way, there will not be much crisis in the Northeast, which is enough for him Li Zicheng to go all out to deal with the army and forces left over from the former Ming Dynasty.

In the face of the two million army, neither the other rebel armies that had yet surrendered, nor the remnants of the Ming army in Jiangnan, had the slightest ability to resist.

What's more, the Li Jiajun is well prepared, well-armed, the quality of the soldiers is extremely high, and a large amount of grain and grass is stored, which is enough to supply a million-strong army to the south, carry out continuous operations, conquer the Ming army and other rebel armies in the south, and completely unify the Guannei.

When many people were complimenting Li Zicheng and telling about many great achievements, Gu Yanwu interrupted everyone's heated discussion at this time, and shouted loudly: "King Chuang, my subordinates also think that you should go one step further and ascend the throne as the emperor, so that the army can become famous." ”

Hearing Gu Yanwu's persuasion, Li Zicheng was really happy, and was about to say something, but saw Gu Yanwu turn around and said: "However, King Chuang, before becoming the emperor, his subordinates thought that the emperor of the previous dynasty should be buried and his body buried in the cemetery of the Ming court, so as to show the world your generosity and benevolence, and also facilitate the appeasement of those officials and generals who have returned." ”

At this moment, Niu Jinxing's expression was a little unsightly, and he glanced at Gu Yanwu, but he didn't refute anything, and there was no reason to refute it.

Li Changmao gave a long salute, showed a serious expression, and then echoed: "King Chuang, Gu Yanwu is right, the body of the emperor of the previous dynasty should not only be buried in the royal mausoleum of the previous dynasty, but also hold a grand funeral to show respect for the emperor. ”

Li Zicheng is not stupid, he understands very well in his heart that Gu Yanwu and Li Changmao and others are thinking about themselves from the bottom of their hearts, and it is right to ascend the throne and become emperor, but they must also do a good job of paving the way, starting with the grand funeral of Zhu Youzhen, rendering the new dynasty's open-mindedness and broad-mindedness.

Of course, the reason for doing this is that the most important thing is not only to appease those civil and military generals who surrendered and surrendered, but also to win the hearts of the people, and if he can forgive the biggest enemy and bury him thickly, then he can tolerate others.

In this way, when going south to subdue all parts of Jiangnan, there will be much less resistance.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Zicheng's whole person became extremely relaxed, and he agreed very happily: "Okay, just do what you say, before establishing a new imperial court, bury the emperor of the previous dynasty." ”

"Chuang Wang Shengming!"

In an instant, the hall sounded the sound of support from the mountains and the tsunami, and everyone bowed down to salute to express the highest respect in their hearts.

After all, for those who are left behind in the previous dynasty, they still have a knot, that is, the body of Emperor Chongzhen should not be buried, and it should be buried in a beautiful manner, giving an emperor the courtesy he deserves.

Now that this knot has been untied, they are grateful to Li Zicheng from the bottom of their hearts.

After the hall was quiet, everyone stood up straight, Li Zicheng's face was radiant and radiant, and he said loudly: "Since you want to open the dynasty and build the Yuan, then you must have a new country name, and the new court will be called Dashun~!" ”

Li Zicheng's words stopped abruptly, making everyone in anticipation stunned, and after a long time of not being able to get the words behind, Li Changmao was the first to ask: "King Chuang, what about the year name?" ”

Obviously, Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and replied with some embarrassment: "Uh~ year name?" The era name is set as Kaiyuan Yongchang! ”

As soon as he said nothing, he seemed to think of something, and Li Zicheng added: "Since the day of the founding ceremony, as long as the Dashun Dynasty exists for one day, the year name should not be changed, and the word Yongchang will always be used, no matter which emperor it is, the year name must not be changed!" ”

As soon as these words came out, some people were suddenly scorched on the outside, and those generals didn't think there was anything wrong, but the strategists and Wenchen were so shocked that their jaws were about to drop, and they looked incredulous, was King Chuang joking?

Since ancient times, every time a new emperor ascends the throne, the era name must be changed to indicate the beginning of a new dynasty and the tail of a new emperor. However, this convention was broken by King Chuang, and some people just wanted to persuade something, but they were stopped by Li Zicheng with a wave of his hand.

"Okay, it's decided, from now on, the country name and the year name are the same, and they must not be changed, unless the Great Shun Dynasty falls."

After finishing speaking, Li Zicheng showed impatience on his face, and muttered in a low voice: "It's too annoying and troublesome to change the year name back and forth......
