Chapter 712 The First Discussion of Politics in the Imperial Study
As soon as Mu Qianmei's words fell, the people below shouted in unison-
"The king of heaven will win, the king of heaven will win, the king of heaven will win......"
The shouts of millions of people make people feel like the earth is shaking and resounding in the sky.
However, Mu Qianmei, who was standing on the canonization stage, had a very unreal sense of unreality, and it was mixed with a hint of embarrassment, because the word "Heavenly King" reminded her of many people who had this title in her previous life, including the leader of the peasant uprising and the king of the entertainment industry.
She collected her mind for a while, adjusted her personal state, and then continued:
"The future is bright, the road is tortuous, in the current situation, to get the final victory, it can be said that there are many difficulties, to win this war to defend the country, we will pay a heavy price, I don't know how many people will be bloodstained on the battlefield, the lonely king here asks, are you afraid?"
As soon as she stopped, more than two million soldiers immediately replied in unison:
"The brave are fearless, defend the family and the country!"
"The brave are fearless, defend the family and the country!"
"The brave are fearless, defend the family and the country!"
The majestic and powerful shout, sonorous and powerful, was full of pride, and it shouted an extremely powerful momentum, which filled all the listeners with confidence at once.
What Mu Qianmei wants is this confidence and determination to win, on the battlefield, the brave are invincible.
After a brief speech and aroused everyone's passion, Mu Qianmei immediately went to the Flower Temple accompanied by hundreds of civil and military officials to worship the God of Flowers.
Outside the Flower Temple, all the monks of the temple led by Zhitong were already lined up, and beside him, there were three people, Abbot Puhui, Tongxuan Daoist and Miaoyue Shitai.
When Mu Qianmei came to the gate of the Flower Temple surrounded by the honor guard, all the monks saluted in unison under the leadership of Abbot Puhui:
"Welcome to the Heavenly King!"
Mu Qianmei said casually:
"No courtesy, everyone's hard work!"
Immediately, accompanied by several people, he slowly walked into the Flower Temple.
The army could only stay outside the temple, and the civil and military officials then entered the temple.
Today's Flower Temple, there is no pilgrim anymore, the entire temple is heavily guarded, and there are guards of the imperial court everywhere.
Although there are no pilgrims, today's incense is very vigorous, the cigarette smoke curls, and the smell of burning incense and candles is everywhere, which looks solemn and has a bit of a sacred atmosphere.
The altar was already full of rich offerings, the door of the main hall was wide open, and the flower god Quyu seemed to have just been renovated, and it was full of vigor and renewed, as if it had a little more festive meaning.
There was a golden basin filled with water outside the altar, and Mu Qianmei washed her hands in front of the golden basin before slowly stepping onto the altar.
Today's sacrificial activities were presided over by Abbot Puhui himself, when Mu Qianmei held three incense sticks in her hand and worshiped the god of flowers, the civil and military officials all bowed down together.
Abbot Puhui held the golden scroll in his hand and read aloud:
"The world is boundless, the sea is endless."
"The sun rises brightly, the moon shines, the stars are eternal, and the earth is in the sky."
"The mountains and rivers are majestic, the rivers are surging, the bells and drums are ringing, and the light of the Buddha is shining."
"The solemn pure land, the full extent of the lotus, bow to the sincerity, and make merits."
"The eternal high wind, the god of orchids, do not hesitate to die, and purify the three karma."
"Today, the demons are dancing wildly, and the country of western rain is in danger."
"Canonize the king of heaven, be ordered by heaven, save all the people from fire and water, and return peace to the world."
"Only the heavens benefit the people, only the heavens are open, showing the auspicious atmosphere, and creating the great cause of the world."
"Beautiful, my western rain earth! Strong, I have thousands of miles of rivers and mountains! ”
"Bright as the sun, the giant sea is empty, I am here to send my heart, bow to sincerity, the god of flowers is the proof, the wishes are cultivated, the benefits of the masses, the length of all beings, the wisdom oath will come true!"
Mu Qianmei had been quietly waiting for Abbot Puhui to read aloud, and after listening to him finish reading, she immediately bowed in the direction of the god of flowers.
As she knelt down, civil and military officials also followed, kneeling and saluting together, begging the god of flowers to protect the common people.
After worshipping, Mu Qianmei slowly stood up and respectfully inserted the three sticks of incense in her hand into the incense burner on the altar.
The civil and military officials said in unison:
"The god of flowers is the proof, and the wisdom oath will come true!"
After speaking, they all stood up together.
At this point, the activity of worshiping the god of flowers was over, and Mu Qianmei slowly left the temple of the god of flowers surrounded by the guard of honor, and walked towards the palace with hundreds of civil and military officials and more than 2 million troops.
Along the way, wherever Mu Qianmei went, the people knelt down and saluted, and the mountains called the king.
Today's Magnolia City is only for one person, and all the people are full of joy on their faces.
Returning to the location of the palace, under the guidance of the honor guard, Mu Qianmei led hundreds of officials into the palace, but instead of entering the Jinluan Palace, she walked into the newly renovated Tianwang Palace next to the Jinluan Palace.
The layout of the Heavenly King's Palace is almost the same as that of the Jinluan Palace, and even the Heavenly King's Chair and the Dragon Chair are roughly the same, but they are not engraved with monopoly patterns.
Mu Qianmei sat on the throne of the Heavenly King, and the civil and military officials immediately bowed.
She did not claim the title of emperor, but she managed the government on behalf of the emperor and was regarded as an uncrowned king.
Having accepted too many kneeling salutes today, Mu Qianmei gradually became much more natural from being uncomfortable, and the "flat body" in her mouth was also able to blurt out.
After the worship of the hundred officials, Mu Qianmei looked at the civil and military officials in the third class, and said slowly:
"The canonization ceremony, this is the end, it's not too early now, everyone will go back to eat first, and the formal court meeting will start in the afternoon to discuss the next plan of action, and retreat from the court!"
The tone seemed very calm, even slightly tired, and the hundred officials immediately knelt down and saluted, and slowly retreated.
After everyone dispersed, Mu Qianmei walked to the imperial study under the guidance of Lu Zimo, followed by Liu Tingfeng and Zhou Yunxi.
The imperial study is the imperial study used by Wu Changhao before, but the desk and some items commonly used by Wu Changhao before have been replaced, and after being rearranged and cleaned, it looks a lot more refreshing.
Mu Qianmei beckoned a few people to sit down together, and then said:
"There's no need to be formalized here, we should be here often in the future, and I hope that both seniors can speak freely and give great help."
Lu Zimo and Zhou Yunxi replied almost in unison:
"The minister obeys the orders of the king of heaven!"
After answering, both of them couldn't help but look thoughtful, because they had all heard similar things here, but the people who spoke were different.
Wu Changhao grew up in the palace since he was a child, and he actually cares more about etiquette, so when he said this, he was more polite, and Mu Qianmei said it, giving people a much more sincere feeling.
Mu Qianmei smiled lightly:
"In the future, I don't have to waste time on these etiquettes in the imperial study, I come from the rivers and lakes, and I don't like the red tape of the palace, so it's better to be simple and direct."
"And both of them are my seniors, if you are restrained, I will also feel restrained, I prefer to speak in a relaxed state."
Zhou Yunxi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied:
"Okay, then let's continue to cooperate as if we were listening to Xuelou's mode of getting along before!"
Lu Zimo was not familiar with it after all, so he still said a little reservedly:
"That'...... The old minister also obeyed the orders of the king. ”
Mu Qianmei smiled lightly:
"Here, Prime Minister Lu is much more familiar than me, so let's order the imperial chef to bring the food here, let's eat together, and hurry up to discuss the afternoon's affairs together!"
Lu Zimo immediately ordered to go down, and then like Mu Qianmei, he introduced the general situation of life in the palace in detail, and introduced all the palace maids and guards who served the king to Mu Qianmei.
After that, she will be the new owner of the palace.
In fact, Mu Qianmei is no stranger to a similar life, but there are too many new faces here, and she needs a process of adaptation and familiarization.
After the meal was served, Mu Qianmei sat in the main seat, beckoned a few people to chat while eating, and she said casually:
"We don't have any more time to prepare, and I hope to have a list of delegations to visit this afternoon, and to visit those places that need to be negotiated as soon as possible."
Zhou Yunxi looked at Lu Zimo and said:
"As for the personnel arrangements for the visiting delegation, Prime Minister Lu should be more familiar with the situation of various officials, so you can talk about your own suggestions!"
Lu Zimo thought for a while and asked:
"How many delegations do we need, and where do they visit?"
Mu Qianmei immediately replied:
"We need three visiting delegations, one to visit Wu Changkong's side, to discuss whether to unite with the outside world or suspend the civil war, this delegation is just such a task, but it is also relatively anxious."
"The second delegation is to visit the stations of the four countries in the West Rain Country, didn't they come in the name of supporting the reconstruction of the West Rain Country? We need to ask for help to rebuild our homes for the people. ”
"The task of the third delegation is to visit the forces of the feudal towns, and we must reintegrate most of the forces into the ranks of the imperial court, otherwise it will be a plate of scattered sand, and it will be difficult to achieve great things."
Lu Zimo thought for a moment before frowning slightly and said:
"With the number of officials we have, it is a bit difficult to form three missions at the same time, but if we force them to be formed, we can do it, but the overall negotiation power of the mission will be reduced."
"It can be said that if a separate visiting group is formed, the best of the best can be selected, and the overall strength is the strongest, if it is divided into two, it can be improvised, and if three teams are formed, all three are relatively weak."
Mu Qianmei nodded and replied:
"The shortage of manpower is indeed a big problem, but we don't have time to delay, we have to form a three-way visiting team."
After finishing speaking, Mu Qianmei thought about it carefully, and then continued:
"Otherwise, the imperial court will form two teams, led by experienced ministers, to visit Wu Changkong's side and the four countries' station, and some manpower can be transferred from Cuiyun City as a supplement."
"And the visiting group of the feudal forces will directly form a team from Cuiyun City, and it is still necessary to ensure their negotiating ability."
