Xiangrui dug it up and knew about it in the dark department of Jiangnan within two days, but the degree of attention was the same as knowing that Wang Dao bought a pair of celadon lotus flowers with a lot of money and put them in the gift list.

They thought that this was also something that the wealthy families in Jiangnan made up to celebrate the new emperor's accession to the throne, so although they recorded it, they didn't pay attention to it.

And Zhou Xi and Director Wang felt that this matter was important, and every time they closed the door, the two of them secretly discussed, so that they didn't notice the particularity of this auspicious thing.

As soon as Luoyang asked, the Jiangnan Secret Investigation Department began to look through the information of the previous month, but did not find much useful information, so they could only look forward, until they found the information of the first month, and then found the source from the pile of papers, "Lu Yuan?" ”

They hurriedly reported it, but this was already ten years later, and the new emperor had already ascended the throne.

At this time, after the telegram asked the Jiangnan Dark Department, Zhao Hanzhang was keenly aware of the gap between Yuan Li's presence and absence, and said to Ji Yuan: "It is not difficult to inquire about the news, but like Yuan Li, you can quickly grab useful information from the vast amount of information, and then integrate and summarize it, it will be difficult." ”

Ji Yuan also admired, "General Yuan is indeed talented. ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "We are still very short of people like Yuan Li, I want to set up a subject in Taixue to teach information science." ”

When Ji Yuan heard this, he immediately objected, "Taixue is a place to read the books of sages, and intelligence is equivalent to meticulous work, how can such a subject be taught?" ”

"Sir, you and I have both been in charge of the dark department, we should know how powerful information is, we can always win, a big reason is that we know more information than others, and the speed of receiving information is faster?"

Ji Yuan: "If you have settled down today......"

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace, the stability at this time is only temporary, and now there are still many drifts in the country, and the war will start out at some point, not to mention," Zhao Hanzhang paused and said: "The students who are taught are not in the shadows, they can also be used as scouts in the army, and as officials in the yamen, whether it is spying on the military intelligence or investigating cases." ”

Ji Yuan frowned, "They are all small officials, and it is not appropriate to choose people from Taixue." ”

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Also, it is not enough to have one official school in Taixue, a few more should be built, military science and medicine should be studied, and even Gewu should recruit more students." ”

Ji Yuan: ......

Zhao Hanzhang asked people to bring the drawings of the capital, "The school, it must be separated, but also together, is there still land near Taixue?" ”

Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang was about to divide the land to build a school, Ji Yuan hurriedly brought the topic back on track, "Your Majesty, we haven't agreed on how to deal with Xiangrui's matter." ”

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before saying: "Let's be cold first, since Zhou Xi is willing to carry this pot, let it go first, if you can't find the person behind the scenes, just find a reason to punish him." ”

Ji Yuan said: "After the ceremony, the minister will immediately release the news. ”

Zhao Hanzhang bowed his head.

There are some things that don't have to be said too clearly, as long as everyone understands them in their hearts.

Zhou Zhou Yu was more unlucky in this matter, and she also advised: "You don't have to punish him heavily, and when the matter is over, you will reward him." ”

Ji Yuan should go down.

Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang was in a good mood and was not affected by this incident, Ji Yuan took the opportunity to ask: "After Your Majesty ascends the throne, what will happen to the harem?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him strangely and said, "The harem is listening to the lotus, and it's not a big problem." ”

Tinghe is very powerful now, she is an expert in managing things and making accounts, and in the past few years, Zhao Hanzhang's family affairs have been handed over to her to deal with.

Ji Yuan immediately said: "The holy decree of canonizing the queen......"

Zhao Hanzhang: "It's just a royal husband, what's so difficult about this?" ”

Ji Yuan whispered: "There is a voice in the court, thinking that the imperial husband should stay in the palace to deal with the affairs of the inner court. ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "Who proposed it?" Shang Shuling is so powerful, let him stay in the harem to take care of the inner court, just look at the little account in the harem and stare at it? Did the person who mentioned this matter just report to the household department and be rejected? ”

Ji Yuan couldn't help laughing, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty doesn't have this intention, and the minister also thinks it's inappropriate." ”

Zhao Hanzhang squinted, looked him up and down, and asked, "Is this just a proposal from some officials in the DPRK and China?" ”

Ji Yuan didn't tell Zhao Hanzhang who he was, but said: "Some people follow the old practice and think that the former dynasty and the harem should be separated; Some people are for selfish desires, if Fu Shangshu leaves, the position of Shang Shuling will be vacant; And some people are worried that His Majesty will follow in the footsteps of the Han Dynasty, and the foreign relatives will be autocratic, and the country will be uneasy. ”

Zhao Hanzhang joked: "Instead of worrying about the big relatives, it is better to worry about the dictatorship of the royal family." ”

Ji Yuan immediately hit the snake with the stick, "Your Majesty, this is also a matter of concern for the ministers, if the royal family is good at business, wouldn't it compete with the people for profit?" When it comes to doing business, who in the world can rob the royal family? ”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him, "After the ceremony, let's talk about it in detail." ”

Seeing that she was really willing to give up part of the power of the royal family, Ji Yuan couldn't help but break his heart and put his mind at ease.

The fifth day of August is an excellent day.

When the sky was faint, Zhao Hanzhang opened her eyes, and almost only when she sat up sideways, Fu Tinghan woke up.

He also sat up and chuckled, "Congratulations." ”

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't suppress the smile on his face, so he simply bloomed and said with a bright smile: "Thank you, today is also a good day for you." ”

It was still early, and the two of them were not in a hurry to let the palace people in, but just sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the glimmer of light projected into the room through the glass, which was very quiet.

Fu Tinghan asked her, "At this time, do you still want to go back?" ”

"If the country is on the right track and we have a chance to go back," Zhao Hanzhang asked him, "can you find a way back?" ”

Fu Tinghan shook his head, "I can't find it." ”

"You're so honest now, you didn't answer me like that before, as long as I asked, you said it was possible, do your best."

Fu Tinghan: "I was afraid that you would be disappointed, but it turns out that you are more adapted to this era than me. ”

Today, Fu Tinghan finally doesn't worry that she will be sad because she can't go back, and she can naturally face this problem honestly.

There was a sound of light and orderly footsteps outside the door, and Zhao Hanzhang knew that it was the subordinate who served them who came, so he got up and went to open the door.

Both husband and wife don't like people to watch the night in their bedrooms, and Zhao Hanzhang even has the habit of locking the door, so unless they open it from the inside, the palace people can't come in at will.

Tinghe led two teams of palace maids and waiters to wait outside, and when he saw the door open, he first squatted down in unison to salute, and then respectfully entered with things in his hands.

The palace maid served Zhao Hanzhang to wash and dress, and the chamberlain went to serve Fu Tinghan.

Today, the two of them are wearing dresses, and Zhao Hanzhang is the most cumbersome, just wearing clothes and combing his hair for half an hour.

The sky is bright, and the auspicious time is approaching.

Dong Neishi's godson, Laiqing, walked quickly to the door and said softly: "Your Majesty, the hundred officials have arrived, and His Majesty King An is also ready." ”

Tinghe also checked Zhao Hanzhang's body twice, and after confirming that there were no mistakes or omissions, he said, "Your Majesty, it's all right." ”

Zhao Hanzhang took Fu Tinghan out together, and there were officials from the Ministry of Etiquette waiting outside, and they also checked Zhao Hanzhang's clothes, and after making sure that nothing was missing, they sent her to the court.

She was going to walk in from the front of the Tai Chi Temple.

The enthronement ceremony is in the Taiji Hall of the main hall of the North Palace.

This palace is Cao Pi's idea, built by Emperor Wei Ming, meaning that it is built in the middle of the pole, which corresponds to the North Star, so the Taiji Hall has a great meaning

Generally, the New Year's Day, the new emperor's accession to the throne, and the amnesty and change of the yuan are all completed in this palace.

It's a pity that the little emperor was outside when he ascended the throne, and after returning to Luoyang, the palace was seriously damaged, Zhao Hanzhang had no money, and secondly, he also felt that the little emperor couldn't use it, so it was not repaired, and they went to the court and dealt with government affairs in Deyang Palace.

Until she is going to ascend the throne.

The Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Rites urgently repaired the palace.

Because of the tight schedule and heavy tasks, they simply repaired them, repaired the roof tiles, painted some pillar and door frames, and replaced some badly damaged stone slabs.

In a month's time, not only to prepare for the enthronement ceremony, the altar, but also to repair the palace, Fu Tinghan lost fifteen pounds very intuitively, and the dress was changed again and again.

Fu Tinghan took a shortcut to the front of the main hall first, and stood in his position from the side and back.

Ji Yuan, who was at the bottom of him, and Ming Yu and Zhao Ming on the opposite side all nodded at him.

Fu Tinghan bowed quietly and turned his head to look at the entrance of the square.

Today, officials of the capital of seven grades and above can attend the ceremony, as well as the envoys of the assassins and vassal kings from all over the world, as well as some family patriarchs, celebrities and hermits, etc., are all honored to attend.

The square of this Taiji Hall can accommodate 10,000 people, and at this time, only about a third of the square is standing, and there are forbidden army guards on the edge, staring solemnly at the middle.

Nothing is greater than the right position, and the ceremony is not prosperous in changing the yuan.

There is no greater gift than today.

There was silence in the square, and suddenly the sound of the whip was heard, and everyone was quieter, and the pin drop could almost be heard.

In the silence, there was the sound of neat footsteps.

The hundred officials turned their heads to look together, and saw Zeng Yue escorting the emperor, and Zhao Hanzhang sat on top of the emperor, raising his eyes and looking straight at them.

Everyone lowered their heads to show their submission, only Fu Tinghan glanced at her with a smile, and then lowered his head as well.

Zhao Hanzhang walked down the emperor's coffin, looked up at the Taiji Hall at the end of the steps, smiled slightly, and raised his feet to go up from the middle.

The civil and military officials were lined up on both sides, and after she walked up the nine steps, they followed from the left and right sides.

Entering the main hall, of course, more officials were left in the square outside the hall, and basically only officials above the third grade entered the main hall, and they were able to see Zhao Hanzhang sitting on the dragon chair with their own eyes.

The little emperor and Xun Fan were already waiting in the palace.

In addition to the two of them, there was Guo Pu standing on one side.

When Zhao Hanzhang stepped onto the dragon, Guo Pu stepped forward to announce the will of heaven.

That's right, it is God's will, which means that Zhao Hanzhang's succession to the throne was agreed by God, and what he got three times was good luck, and God's will was in Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang listened quietly, and waited for him to finish before he said: "I am very grateful for God's choice, I have to inherit the great treasure, and I want to thank the people of the world for their trust; Second, I want to thank the lieutenant generals and soldiers for their support; Three thank you, the world is so big, it is difficult to rule with the power of only one person. ”

"Princes, parents of the people, do things that teach, love, and protect dominion; Officials, the king, but also the people, this world, is the king and the people co-governance, and you and so on! Only when the monarch and the minister are in harmony, the monarch and the people get along, and the government and the people love each other, can the great cause be achieved and the world will be prosperous! ”

The hundred officials bowed down and knelt down, bowed their heads and said, "Respectfully!" ”

Guo Pu said: "Please ask the new emperor to take the seal." ”

The stunned little emperor immediately stepped forward with the jade seal in his hand and bowed down to hand it to Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang took it, and he knelt down with Xun Fan and bowed: "Minister, Sima Ye respects His Majesty the Emperor." ”

The hundred officials got up, followed Guo Pu's order to bow three times and kowtow nine times, and said in unison: "The ministers worship His Majesty the Emperor, and the ministers worship His Majesty the Emperor......"

In the square, thousands of people knelt down and bowed together, and the sound resounded in the sky, and even reached the avenue of the inner city.

The people, who had been crowded in the inner city early in the morning to listen to the movement, heard the shouts and knelt down to bow down according to the sound.

The people behind the street did not hear the sound at all, but when they saw the people in front of them kneeling, they also knelt down and bowed.

From the inner city to the outer city, all the people knew that today was the day when Zhao Hanzhang ascended the throne, and when they saw the people in front of them kneeling, they knelt down one after another.

The street vendors abandoned their stalls, and even the shopkeepers and proprietors of the shops ran out of their shops and followed the people to their knees with their robes lifted up.

Zhao Hanzhang took the jade seal and walked to the dragon chair and sat down, raised his eyes to look into the distance, his eyes seemed to pass through the main hall, the square and the palace, and met the eyes of the people in the inner and outer cities of Luoyang.

Providence and public opinion, she chooses public opinion;

Bestowed by God and by the people, she also chose to be bestowed by the people.

Since Shang and Zhou believed that the emperor was the son of heaven, the concept of heavenly power has always existed, until Dong Zhongshu clearly put forward the meaning of "divine grant of monarchical power", and the military power granted by heaven has become the consensus of the world.

Therefore, the people of the world will defend and respect the emperor as much as the gods.

But after Cao Chao was killed by Sima Shi on the street, this consensus collapsed, and the legitimacy and rationality of the Heavenly Mandate were questioned.

If the emperor is the son of heaven and the co-leader of the people chosen by the gods, how can he be killed on the street?

And the man who killed him also became the emperor.

If the Son of Heaven is not protected by the gods, can he still be called the Son of Heaven?

The collapse of this belief made the change of dynasties faster, because there was no new doctrine to replace it, so that the legitimacy and rationality of the emperor's succession were questioned, and the struggle for imperial power was also fierce, until the Ming Dynasty, the concept of the emperor's grant of public opinion officially replaced the teaching of providence.

Of course, Zhao Hanzhang is willing to accept the heavenly endowment, both the heavenly endowment and the people's endowment are required for her, and she hopes that the world can establish a more accurate cognition.

The will of the people is the will of heaven, and the king of heaven thinks it is the people.

Providence changes with the change of public opinion.

Reiterate Mencius's view that "the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light".

It's just that I don't know how many of the civil and military officials present understood her hint, and she was not a teacher, so she stopped there.

After the end of the three bows and nine knocks of the hundred officials, Zhao Hanzhang officially set the year name, "...... The country name is Hua, and the year name is Yuanzhen. ”

This era name was decided after Zhao Hanzhang and the ministers discussed for a long time, and it was taken from the first hexagram of the Book of Changes, the Dry Hexagram, and Yuan Henry Zhen.

They are all very auspicious words.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Because the words used in my name are extremely common, there is no need to shy away from it. ”

I thought about avoiding it before, and all the officials didn't agree with her using "Zhen" as the year name, so she couldn't write an official document every time, when Yuan Zhen was in X years, she had to give Zhen fewer strokes, or replace it with other words, right?

But Zhao Hanzhang counted his name, and in the four words, all of them were commonly used words, and if the people of the world avoided it, they felt that they would not be able to live their lives.

So Zhao Hanzhang simply decided that her name did not have to be avoided.

Only then did Baiguan agree with her to use the era name Yuanzhen.

Zhao Hanzhang is very generous, because most of this year has passed, so only the year name is set, and it will be officially changed after the first day of the first month, so this year is still the year name of the little emperor Jianxing.

The little emperor is still a little moved, no, he should be called King An at this time. (End of chapter)
