Chapter 794 Country Number
"Mr. Gu, don't worry, I know what you and your Mo family think, and I will definitely not disappoint you and others when the time comes. www.biquge.info"Li You didn't comment on his persuasion table, and ordered someone to comfort his subordinates, and then Gu Jiangzi left happily, and when the news spread, the capital suddenly exploded, up to the ministers of Zaifu, down to the small officials, all kinds of persuasion tables flew to Li You's side like snowflakes.
Wang Ji, Yao Guangxiao and others originally planned to launch their petty officials to go to the table first, and then follow up by themselves, but now they saw that Gu Jiangzi, whose identity was no less than them, did not play cards according to the routine and started first, so they could no longer care about the original plan, and they rushed to hand over their persuasion form.
The envoys of Qian Hua, Luo Shiji, Zheng Feihuang, Jiang Suiyun and others waited in Beijing for a long time, and finally waited for the long-awaited news, and hurriedly sent the persuasion form of their own officials to the court; Even those family members and old gentry who slandered Li You's belly refused to miss this opportunity to curry favor, and they handed over articles written by masters, hoping to gain the favor of the new emperor and restore the old scenery.
And the king of Yue, who followed the army into the capital, also refused to be left behind, and he also said in the name of the Great Wei clan that now the Great Wei is exhausted, and the new emperor's accession to the throne is the destiny of heaven, hoping to exchange himself for a stable end; When the news reached the palace, King Fu, who was living in the Wude Palace, couldn't help but scold, this was what he had planned to do for a long time, but he didn't expect to be preempted by King Yue!
So King Fu did not dare to slack off, hurriedly came out of the Wude Palace, rarely appeared in the court, and showed his attitude to the civil and military officials, King Fu first reviewed many events since Li Gui ascended the throne, and then greatly praised Li You's achievements in resisting the Northern Captives and protecting the people of the Central Plains, and then degraded himself as useless, and repeatedly declared that he was really not the emperor's material, and he should give the throne to Li You.
Seeing him so knowledgeable, most of the courtiers were very happy, and they just wanted to put Li You on the throne on the same day, but it was a pity that such a major matter could not be done in a hurry, and the process that should be taken was the same! Li Youxian resolutely rejected King Fu's suggestion to show the attitude of "It's not that I want to be this emperor, it's you who have to make me be".
Although it was rejected, but the Fu King and the courtiers did not take it as a thing, the process of three and three concessions must go, but the things that should be busy are also busy, they began to discuss the various processes of the Zen ceremony, but before that there is still a very important work to do, that is, to set the name of the new dynasty first.
This country name is very particular, can not be random to rise, must follow a certain law, according to the practice of the Central Plains, the country name generally has the following ways:
First, it is named after the place of origin, such as Qi Jianguo, the chief of the Xia tribe, with Xia as the country name. The chieftain of Zhou, Ji Fa, destroyed the Shang and founded the country, with Zhou as the country name, and Qin's ancestors as the surname Ying, because of the meritorious work of raising horses, he was sealed in Qin by Zhou, so he took Qin as the country name.
Second, with the title of the country, such as Sui's country name comes from Yang Jian's claim to be the emperor inherited his father Yang Zhong's Suiguo Duke, Han Gaozu Liu Bang was named the king of Han by Xiang Yu, so Han was the country name, and Tang Guogong became the reason why Li Yuan named the Tang Dynasty.
Third, with the birthplace as the country name, the birthplace of Liao Taizu is rich in iron, so the sixth emperor of the country, Liao Shengzong, changed the country name to Liao, symbolizing that the country is as strong as iron.
Fourth, follow the semantics, for example, in the Southern Dynasty, Xiao Daocheng accepted the courtiers when he replaced Liu Song and ascended the throne as emperor. thought that Qi could overpower Liu Song, so it was named after it; And Jin Taizu believes that "Liao takes iron as the name, take its strength, although the iron is strong, it will eventually become bad, but gold will not be bad." "In order to show that he is stronger than Liao, he takes Jin as the country name; The Qing Dynasty took the name of the country as the Qing Dynasty on the grounds that water overcame fire.
Fifth, it is named after the surname of the founder, such as the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao, and Wei during the Warring States period.
Sixth, respect and inheritance, Wu Zetian, Guo Wei and others respect Zhou Li, want to imitate the Zhou system or follow the name of Zhou because of the long-term continuation of the Zhou Dynasty, Liu Zhiyuan took Han as the country name on the grounds that Liu Bangnai, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was his ancestor, and so on.
Because of these inherent rules, it is not difficult to take the country name of the new dynasty, Li You was born in Jiazhou, and the title is also Jiazhou Bo, so Jiazi has become the most popular choice for the new country name; Several scholars who had read poetry and books in the DPRK and China took the lead in standing up and put forward the idea of using "Jia" as the national name, which was immediately unanimously approved by the ministers.
Of course, Li You will not make trouble with them on such a small issue, and the national names such as China and Huaxia are really not in line with the current situation, so he calmly accepted this suggestion, and the Jia Dynasty will replace the Wei Dynasty as the new national name.
Since the country name has been determined, then it is time to consider the issue of the year name, this time it is still a debate of many scholars citing scriptures, and a number of era names are proposed for Li You to choose, because Li You's martial arts are quite prosperous, so among the options they provide, the era name with the word "Wu" is the most.
"I think this era name will be called Hongwu." Li You chose a familiar era name from the options they provided, and Zhu Yuanzhang's credit for expelling Meng Yuan to restore the Han people can be regarded as living up to Li You.
The country name and the year name are determined, then the rest of the things should be handled by the ministers according to the convention, and then the ministers began to be busy with tension, to prepare the twelve chapters of the new emperor's enthronement uniform, to clean the Zichen Hall where the emperor lives, the harem where the queen and the concubine live, and to prepare the residence of King Fu after leaving the palace.
The border troops must also be vigilant day and night, not to let the barbarians in the north and Hedong disturb Li You's enthronement ceremony, and at the same time, they are also looking forward to what rewards Li You will give them after he ascends the throne.
In the next few days, Li You and King Fu staged two good performances of mutual concession in succession, and finally after the third time, Li You calmly accepted his suggestion to give up the throne, and then King Fu and the civil and military officials in the court were completely relieved, and then Li You repaid Li with the title of Duke and Marquis respectively, as long as the two families did not make any trouble, Li You would ensure that they were idle and rich all their lives.
The auspicious day of Qin Tianjian has also been chosen, and the day of Li You's ascension to the throne and proclamation of the emperor is set for ten days, and all the work is close to completion, just waiting for the time to officially ascend the throne.
