Wu Feng may have to face some more difficult problems, and immediately need to make a decision, there is not much time at his disposal, there is already a call within the Western Xinjiang, asking Wu Feng to complete the enthronement ceremony before March 700, that is to say, the new dynasty should be established in the spring of 700, but there are still many troublesome things that plague Wu Feng, Situ Tai's disposal, the positioning of the imperial capital, The names of the new dynasties have caused a lot of controversy, and each of these things seems to cause a huge controversy.

Fortunately, the news from Situ Yutang from Yanjing is quite satisfactory, the Situ family has given in and is willing to withdraw from the stage in a relatively peaceful way, Situ Yuan has expressed this willingness on many occasions openly or implicitly, except for Situ Yushuang, no one else in the Situ family can hold objections. Of course, Wu Feng also gave the members of the Situ family a promise of property and status inviolability in the conditions promised to Situ Yutang, as for political privileges, Wu Feng never thought of giving them to anyone or any class, in his opinion, economic strength is the guarantee that determines political privileges.
Situ Yushuang, an outlier, seemed to be going against herself to the end, and there were also some representatives of ultra-conservative forces and the Situ family's diehard groups around her, even including some gentry and nobles who had been exiled to Yanjing from Yanyun and Beiyuan, which made Wufeng very curious. Wu Feng couldn't imagine what kind of way this "Aoshuang Peony", known as the wise "Aoshuang Peony" in the Situ family, would say that he would fight and supervise by a legal means.
It is said that the "Beijing Times" organized by her has been founded and has begun to be distributed to the outside world, and it seems that it still has some influence, although it cannot be compared with several mainstream newspapers and periodicals in Beijing, but it can be regarded as a sword and has attracted the attention of some people. If you want to influence your own policies just by relying on a newspaper, it is a little too naïve, and the empire that is about to be established will only strengthen the intelligence of news supervision, but if it is only objective criticism, Wu Feng still intends to accept it, after all, it is still necessary to have such a media that "reminds" him all the time, not to mention that with the guillotine in his hand, he can cut off these things that are not conducive to his rule at any time.
It's just that the existence of such a group will not affect the process of ascending to the throne, not to mention that Wufeng also understands that this Situ Yushuang is not a stupid person, and it is her strength to be calm and able to face the reality rationally, and the legal way she proposed is more strategic, and will not take some extreme ways to fight, Situ Yutang also clearly told Wufeng in the letter about her thirteenth sister's promise.
The position of the capital also caused a lot of controversy, and Wu Feng once wanted to determine a better outcome through a wide range of debates, but Wu Feng immediately rationally rejected the idea, which would cause a lot of unnecessary disagreements, which seemed to require his own dictatorship. The dispute over Qingyang, Hanzhong, Jinling, and Zhongzhou also ended under Wufeng's tough stance, and Wufeng explicitly ordered that Zhongzhou remain the capital for the time being, waiting for the situation in the empire to stabilize before making a final decision. And this decision also won the approval of the vast majority of the ministers, after all, when the other three cities have certain advantages and disadvantages, choosing a moderate decision is more acceptable to most people, especially when the empire is about to be established and there are still quite a lot of affairs to be carried out, the other three cities do not seem to have the place to accommodate the huge imperial bureaucracy, only everything in Zhongzhou City is ready-made, which is the most suitable.
And the country name is also debated among the subordinates, but compared to the positioning of the capital, the country name does not involve too many interests, at this point, although there is controversy, but are carried out in a calm state, and finally by Wu Feng to make a final decision, the country name "Tang Dynasty", and the "Tang River" that has ended has a certain connection between the past and the future, by implying the original meaning of the Tang nation, which finally won the unanimous approval of a cadre of ministers.
The issue of Situ Tai's disposition was also successfully resolved, and the Home Affairs Department made a decision to imprison him in the temple where he was a monk, and not to leave without permission, and not to allow outsiders to visit, of course, this was only a temporary means, but at least for the time being, this problem was resolved, so as not to cause antagonism because of the Situ Tai problem.
Negotiations with the Dodons are also in full swing, and the Western Army, which has been in a big battle in the Kuts area, seems to have maintained a restrained posture with some reservations, but the Rangers who have entered the border area of Kuts and Yanshan have made the Dodons even more panicked, although the diplomatic envoys of the Kaman and Sithro have participated in this diplomatic negotiation that has nothing to do with them several times, but the tough posture of the Western Xinjiang diplomats still makes them feel troubled.
There is no doubt that the Dodons participated in the hostilities against the western Xinjiang, and this kind of move must be liquidated for the Western Xinjiang people who have won a complete victory, and the victors never need any reason, if there is a reason, it will be more perfect, but the appetite of the western Xinjiang is inevitably too great, not only demanding the cession of Okhotsk, but also demanding that the Kuts region be a demilitarized zone, and that the Dodons must not station a regular army of more than 10,000 people, and also that the Dotunians must stop their military offensive and political persecution of the Bains in the north, and that the Dotons must open their military port of Nomenkan in the north for the future Western Xinjiang Navy to anchorThis series of harsh conditions is simply to make the Duotun people completely surrender, of course, the Duotun people can not accept, but the situation in front of them is a steady stream of troops from the west to the north, and this posture forces the negotiation envoys of the Duoton people to sit down and continue to negotiate with the diplomats of the Western Xinjiang people in this humiliating situation.
The sky-high price of the Xijiang people made both the Sislo and the Kaman feel unbearable, but the initiative and excuse are in the hands of the other party, whether in terms of strength or morality, the Dodon people have fallen behind, and it is inevitable to make some concessions, but the line must not be crossed.
The Okhotsk region has been fully occupied by the Western Xinjiang Army, and it is almost impossible to get the Western Xinjiang people to withdraw, but fortunately, the Dodon side does not attach much importance to this land, and this land has had historical disputes, even if it is returned to the Tanghe people, it will not cause too many problems, but it is absolutely unacceptable to make the Kuts region a demilitarized zone, and the loss of Okhotsk has put the Kuts in a very dangerous situation, and if it wants to become a demilitarized zone, it is simply a suicide act. As for the Baiyin people, it can be up or down, after all, it is in the far north, and even if it is vaguely promised, the Tanghe people cannot really supervise it. After painstaking negotiations, facilitated by Kaman and the envoys of Sisro, they finally moved closer to peace step by step, and when the question of the use of the Nomenkan military port was finally agreed in advance by the Dodons and the Western Navy, the parties were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief and explain themselves to their masters.
When the dust settles one by one, Wufeng's entry into Beijing seems to be a matter of course. Yanjing has been firmly controlled by Song Tianxiong and Huangfu Tiancheng, and the Praetorian Guards except for Huangfu Tiancheng's second division still remains inside and outside Yanjing City, the remaining four divisions have been drawn to the outskirts of Yanjing City to wait for reorganization, Huangfu Tiancheng as the temporary commander has made this group of Praetorian Guards feel a lot more stable, after all, Huangfu Tiancheng is still a senior officer from the Praetorian Guard, and with his good performance in the eyes of King Qin, the ending of the Praetorian Guard will not be too bad. The 2nd and 4th Divisions of the 3rd Army were also ordered to enter Yanjing to strengthen the security of Yanjing, and with the imminent entry of His Royal Highness King Qin into Beijing, the security situation in Yanjing will also become tense, which makes everyone have to be vigilant and strengthen precautions.
Under the impetus of Lin Yuexin, the personnel and materials of all parties in the fox spy system of the Lin family in Sanjiang were decomposed and added to the General Intelligence Bureau and the Military Intelligence Bureau, marking the last bit of the Lin family's reserved strength to be fully integrated into the new empire. At the same time, under the leadership of Zhu Tingling, most of the Dalit Lehu intelligence system, which is powerful in the southeastern region, has joined the General Intelligence Bureau, and a small number have joined the Military Intelligence Bureau and the security department. The two major intelligence systems that originally existed in the territory of the empire finally entered the Imperial National Intelligence Directorate and the Imperial [***] Affairs Bureau in a way that was about to take shape.
On January 30, 700 in the mainland Gregorian calendar, Situ Yuan, the last emperor of the Tang River Empire, announced his abdication in Yanjing Zhongzhou, and left the palace to return to his residence before ascending the throne. At the same time, the various ministries of the imperial cabinet announced the resignation of all the general ministers, and at the same time, Xiao Tang, director of the Western Xinjiang Administrative Affairs Bureau, who had arrived in Yanjing in advance, announced that he would temporarily take charge of Zhongzhou's administrative affairs and take charge of all affairs in Zhongzhou, including Yanjing City.
A series of news of changes seems to come naturally, and there are always some surprises, when His Royal Highness King Qin has not yet entered Beijing, Situ Yuan announced his abdication, which is a good way to avoid embarrassment, and in fact, the resignation of the imperial cabinet without any power is just a formality, Xiao Tang's entry into Beijing marks that the Western Xinjiang forces have truly achieved a unified empire, and have achieved the step of banning in the whole empire.
At this time, almost all the media are already hailing the arrival of a new dynasty, and they are cheering that the Tang Dynasty will bring a prosperous era to the Tang nation, from the industrial and commercial class to ordinary citizens, from handicraftsmen to farmers and herdsmen, they are all cheering for the establishment of a new empire and a new dynasty.
