Chapter 308: The Beginning of the Kingdom of China
After returning to Huajun for a period of time, Chu Meiren and Mi Yan gave birth one after another.
Chu Mei gave birth to a girl, and Mi Yan also gave birth to a son.
The girl's appearance is inherited from her mother, and she looks like Chu Meiren, but her eyes are inherited from Ning Ze, which is quite divine. Ning Ze gave her a manzi, which means soft and delicate.
The three sons inherited half of their parents' appearances, and his father-in-law Mi Yuansheng personally took a Zheng character for him, hoping that he was a tiger son with a strong iron backbone. Another reason, Ning Ze's Ze is water, Jin Shengshui, Mi Yuansheng hopes that this child can make his son-in-law more prosperous, so he takes the word Zheng next to the golden character.
Because of this incident, Chu Xun approached Ning Ze several times to express his dissatisfaction, and expressed displeasure at him naming his granddaughter without discussion. It's also a loss to his granddaughter, if it's a grandson, this old man will definitely make a big fuss, until Ning Ze agrees to let him change his name again.
However, he also asked Ning Ze to make a guarantee in person that when Chu Mei gave birth to a second child, he must let his grandfather name him.
Ning Ze had to agree, he knew Chu Xun's temper best, and the trouble was endless.
Being a human being in two lives, having both children at once, and having a wife and children by your side every day, is really an unimaginable happiness.
Of course, in modern society, a child can make his head as big as a bucket and can't take care of it. It's not modern, and you don't need to be a father with children. The wife can't take care of it, and a large group of maids in the princess's mansion take turns to serve, which is very worry-free.
Sometimes he doesn't want to go out to work, he just wants to accompany his three wives and lovely children in the house every day, so that he can live happily and without quarrel with the world.
Of course, this is impossible.
Finally big news came out from the west, shaking the sixteen states.
Lu Cong announced the world, chose an auspicious day to ascend the throne and became emperor, changed the name of the country to "Liang", and called himself Emperor Yuan.
Yuan means beginning, and Emperor Yuan of Liang means the first emperor of the Liang Dynasty.
The era name was changed to the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty.
Feng Sun Ran is the prime minister, Pu Anmin is the captain, and Wang Jun is the imperial doctor, ranking as the third duke.
Zhou Hao is a general.
Sima Fa is Guangluxun, Lu Jian is Taichang, Lei He is Taifu, Feng Yuan is Weiwei, Yanping is Zongzheng, Li Xun is Dahonglu, Wang Shuang is Tingwei, Duan Qi is Dasi Nong, Duan Weiyong is Shaofu, and he is ranked Jiuqing.
Lu Yuan was promoted to hussar general, Xu Yan was promoted to chariot general, and Luo Feng was promoted to Wei general.
All civil and military officials were rewarded, and nearly half of them were members of the Lu family.
Since his accession to the throne, he has granted amnesty to the world.
Lu Cong's proclamation as emperor means that the Dacheng Kingdom is coming to an end.
As the news came out, Chu Gong of Daliang County, Mizhou, led the troops to riot, and called on the heroes of the world to fight Lu Cong and restore Dacheng in the name of eradicating national thieves.
For a time, Jiang Daxun of Chicheng Jiang in Yunzhou, Wang Ye of Nujiang, Guo Baocheng of Xingtai in Yanzhou, and Cao Qiang of Gu'an responded one after another and raised troops one after another.
Ma Jian issued a message, angrily accusing Lu Cong of killing the emperor, plotting to usurp the throne, and sending troops to attack the imperial city of Miliang.
Tang Niu's army went south, and also shot at Lu Cong in the name of eliminating national thieves.
It seems that Lu Cong is worried about internal and external troubles, and the situation is critical.
However, Sima Fa had already laid out, and all the soldiers and horses quickly suppressed the rebellion, and after fierce battles, they successively took Chu Gong, Jiang Daxun, Wang Ye, Guo Baocheng, and Cao Qiang.
Sima Fa personally led the troops to fight against Ma Jian, and Lu Yuan went north to fight against Tang Niu, with Lei He as his deputy.
The three forces attacked each other, so it was not lively.
After the news of Lu Cong's proclamation of the emperor reached Huajun, Liu Yuanxiang, who had recovered slightly, gathered hundreds of civil and military officials to discuss the matter.
Before going to the court, he finally returned from Binachu and Li Shun and other officials of the princess's camp secretly met secretly, feeling that the situation had reached the most dangerous time.
Dacheng's orthodoxy was destroyed, and the powerful minister Ning Ze no longer needed Princess Yuanxi as a puppet, and it was very likely that he would establish himself as the emperor like Lu Cong, so he made an appointment to act at the opportunity, and once such a sign appeared, he would look for an opportunity to subdue Ning Ze in the court and support Princess Yuanxi to seize power.
When they arrived at the court, hundreds of civil and military officials arrived, and Li Shun and other officials from the princess camp were nervous, staring at Ning Ze.
Liu Yuanxiang faced the hundred officials and said in a deep voice: "Lu Cong established himself as the emperor and changed the name of the country to Liang, shocking the world! Dacheng is turbulent and crumbling, how can we eradicate the traitors and stabilize the society?"
Ning Ze immediately came out and said loudly: "As the bloodline of the first emperor, the lord is also the only person who can revive the country and stabilize the society! At this time, it is the right way to break and stand!"
"What is a big break?" Liu Yuanxiang pretended not to know.
In fact, in private, the husband and wife have discussed many times, and even the details have been discussed.
Facing Liu Yuanxiang's question, Ning Ze replied: "In the current situation, only when the lord ascends the throne and becomes the emperor can he eliminate Lu Cong and the rest of the princes with righteousness. ”
"There is no precedent for a woman to be called an emperor!" Liu Yuanxiang said, "I'm afraid that people in the world won't allow it." ”
Although there is no precedent for a woman to be the emperor, only the lord can turn things around and restore orthodoxy. Ning Ze said loudly, "Do extraordinary things at extraordinary times, and ask the lord to ascend the throne immediately!"
What is the situation? Li Shun and the other officials in the princess camp were all stupid, they thought that Ning Ze would directly establish himself as the emperor at this time, and they had all thought about what to do when the time came. Who knew that such a situation would be difficult to reflect.
Most of the people inside and outside the Ming Dynasty were Ning Ze's henchmen, occupying an absolute advantage, why did he want to promote the princess to the throne? Obviously, it is easier for him to ascend to the throne than to support the princess.
Could it be that he has no interest in the throne of the emperor?
No way!
Perhaps, because the son he gave birth to with the princess will definitely inherit the throne in the future, so he is not in a hurry?
In any case, for those officials who consider themselves princesses, it is the best choice for Princess Yuanxi Liu Yuanxiang to ascend the throne.
So Li Shun took the lead and quickly came out to echo: "What the Hou Ye said is extremely true, and the lower officials seconded it! Please ask His Royal Highness to ascend the throne and become the emperor and restore the orthodoxy of the royal family!"
"Please Your Highness ascend the throne!!" The officials of the princess's camp came out one after another, and the civil and military officials on the scene also echoed.
Liu Yuanxiang looked around at the ministers, and then turned to Ning Ze.
Seeing her eyes fall on herself, Ning Ze nodded slightly.
Receiving encouragement, Liu Yuanxiang took a deep breath, got up and said: "This palace is a member of the society, and the responsibility of the royal family's orthodoxy cannot be shirked! Since the public opinion is like this, I will accept your advice and ascend the throne immediately!"
Ning Ze had already made preparations, and ordered someone to set up a special dragon chair, presenting a dragon robe and a customized dragon pattern jade seal: "Our army respects the divine dragon, and if we want to break the big stand, we should use the divine dragon as the royal seal." Please lead a hundred officials to worship their ancestors and report to the first emperor!"
"Please sacrifice Your Highness!!" the civil and military officials responded in unison.
So Liu Yuanxiang personally led the civil and military officials, with the assistance of Ning Ze to hold a sacrifice, after the ceremony was completed, the enthronement ceremony was held in the main hall, becoming the first empress of ancient times.
According to Ning Ze's suggestion, because the power originated in Huajun, the Hua State was established and called Emperor Yuanxi.
The era name was changed to Xihua.
After registration, it was divided into 100 officials.
Chu Xun is the prime minister, ranking first among the three princes, and assisting the government.
Ning Ze was the Tai Lieutenant, in charge of military affairs, with the same status as the prime minister, and was crowned the king of Danyang, and Danyang County, Chengzhou, was a fief.
Liang Teng is the imperial historian, and he is the deputy prime minister, ranking as the third duke.
Mi Yuansheng is the general, Dewey is the hussar general, Mi Yan is the general of the guard, and the ghost-faced Wang Wei is the general of the chariot cavalry.
Chu Meiren was named Taichang and ranked first among the nine Qings.
Chu Wenxiu was named Guangluqing.
Ouyang Chun was named Shaofu, Liang Dong was named Da Honglu, Liang Jing was named Tai Servant, General Zhong Jizhao was named Wei Wei, Ding Mu was named Tingwei, Wu Lan was named Zongzheng, and Kang Yun was named Dasi Nong.
Fan Tufeng was named the prime minister, and Ding Sannu was named the prime minister.
Liang Hao was named the prime minister, Zhao Qing was named the ruling Jinwu, and Sun Yan was named Jing Zhaoyin.
The civil and military ministers should be rewarded from high to low, including Li Shun and others.
The main reason is that there are too few talents, and many positions are arranged simply to win people's hearts.
At the same time, the civil and military officials stationed in various states and counties were also rewarded, and the high-ranking officials were not stingy.
Ning Ze ordered people to build the palace in advance and stepped up the progress.
The whole country is exempted from taxes for half a year, and the whole world celebrates.
In the first year of Xihua, Liu Yuanxiang successfully ascended the throne and became emperor in Huajun and established Dahua.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, civil and military officials gathered to pay homage to the new emperor.
Sitting on the dragon chair, Liu Yuanxiang looked around at the hundred officials, like a dream.
"At the beginning of the establishment of the Hua Kingdom, it should show its prestige!" Prime Minister Chu Xun said, "Please Your Majesty draft an edict to recruit Ma Jian and Tang Niu in the name of orthodoxy, and give an edict to the people of the world to arrest the puppet emperor Lu Cong!"
"The minister seconded!" Liang Teng immediately agreed.
"The ministers seconded the proposal!!" the civil and military ministers came out one after another to echo Chu Xun.
In fact, it doesn't make much sense, it's just a symbolic announcement, and no one expects Ma Jian and Tang Niu to surrender.
Liu Yuanxiang turned his head to look at Ning Ze, who smiled and nodded.
"Quasi-play!" Seeing that he agreed, Liu Yuanxiang immediately said.
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Chu Xun continued, "Also, Your Majesty should issue an order to order the surrounding countries and barbarians to come to Huajun to pay respects!"
So Liu Yuanxiang drafted the decree again, and ordered the envoy to be sent to Dacheng's vassal countries and the barbarians who submitted to Dacheng.
As the first small country to submit to Liu Yuanxiang's power, Binaqiu sent an envoy to congratulate him as soon as he received the holy decree.
It's just that except for Binachu, the other subject states heard that the newly established Hua Kingdom was a woman as the emperor, including the surrounding barbarians, and they didn't take it seriously.
There was even a nation of Hado to the south of the sea, which mocked the messenger to his face and expelled him.
The envoy returned to Daohua County and reported the matter.
Dewey was furious and immediately asked for his life: "How dare Bodo be so rude, the last general is willing to lead his troops to the battle, capture the king of Nabodo, and apologize to Your Majesty!"
"It's just a small country on the sea, why do you need to go out in person?" Ning Ze said, "Huang Shao!"
"The last general!"
"Give you 10,000 soldiers and horses, and let Guangluqing accompany you. You husband and wife have taken Hakata, but is there a problem?"
"This ......" Huang Shao actually has no confidence, he doesn't know much about Boduo Country, but how can he say that it is also a country, how can he get 10,000 soldiers and horses?
Without waiting for him to answer, Chu Wenxiu next to him said confidently: "This matter is easy, my husband and wife will lead the troops to the battle, and they will be able to succeed immediately!"
"Is it okay?" Liu Yuanxiang was a little worried.
"Your Majesty rest assured!" Chu Wenxiu replied, "It's just a Boduo country, it's not a problem." ”
So Liu Yuanxiang issued an order to let Huang Shao and Chu Wenxiu lead 10,000 troops to the sea to attack Boduoguo.
