Chapter 407 Supporting Liu Rong and claiming the throne in the north

Three days in a row. Wang Yun and Zhao Xing were both happily bargaining, and as for when to canonize the king of Jin, it became a matter that was ignored.

In the end, Zhao Xing, who represented the future Jin Kingdom, and Wang Yun, who represented the imperial court, reached the following agreement:

First, the imperial court will take back the title and seal of General Zhao Xing's Zhenbei as a appeasement, allowing Zhao Xing to continue to command the Zhenbei Army under his command, but the Zhenbei Army needs to change its name. In fact, this is all nonsense, whether the imperial court allows it or not, how can the Zhenbei Army be a place where others can interfere? Zhao Xing agreed to the imperial court's request to revoke the title of the general of Zhenbei, but he made it clear that he would marry his second daughter Zhao Siping to the king of Jin as the queen. Wang Yun had no right to decide on this matter, so he had to say that he would return to the court and reply.

Second, in the future, the Jin State will pay tribute to the imperial court every year with 10,000 catties of high-quality forged steel and 1,000 sturdy war horses. In return, the imperial court would allow Jin merchants to open warehouses and gold shops throughout the country for free trade.

Third, the Jin Kingdom provided tens of thousands of exquisitely printed textbooks to Luoyang Taixue University free of charge every year, and the content and specific titles of the books were determined by the Taixue University's Great Sacrifice Wine. In return, the imperial court will recognize the experience of the scholars as officials in the Jin State, and in the future, they can still serve as officials in other states and counties after leaving the Jin State.

Fourth, when the imperial court was threatened or changed, if an order was issued to the Jin state to send troops, the Jin state was obliged to help the imperial court fight in accordance with the will of the imperial court. In return, the imperial court accepted the Jin state's request to open a waterway for the Yellow River. In the future, Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou in the lower reaches of the Yellow River were not allowed to arbitrarily intercept the merchant ships of the Jin State navigating along the Yellow River. Of course, in order to show the sincerity of the Jin state, Zhao Xing needed to share his skills in the manufacture of stirrups, saddles, and horseshoes with the imperial court.

There are a number of other agreements, but there are no results for the time being because the differences between the two sides are too large. However, Zhao Xing put forward a proposal to put aside the dispute, saying that certain terms could be negotiated in the future as the situation develops.

What Zhao Xing didn't know was that the three agreements that had been reached were all put forward by Wang Yun himself, and they were not at all the eyes and opinions of the guys in the imperial court; what Wang Yun didn't know was that he was looking at how much the imperial court had picked up some cheap ones this time, but many of the things that Zhao Xing threw out contained the benefits of "highly toxic", and once the imperial court and the states became addicted, it was like being addicted to drugs, and it was difficult to quit again.

For example, allowing Jin merchants to do business, build warehouses, and open gold stores all over the country does not seem to be a big deal, but in fact, the Jin State can take the opportunity to buy materials and raw materials that are lacking in the state, and the gold bank is a terrible thing that can control the main economic artery of the Han Dynasty. It's a pity that in that era, the scribes were all heavy on agriculture and light on commerce, and they didn't know much about political economy, so they didn't see the huge role of commerce in promoting the country and the nation.

After everything is settled, all that remains is to hold the ceremony of sealing the king. After Cai Yong, a university scholar, calculated that March 28 was the auspicious day of the canonization, so the time was set.

In order to hold this sealing ceremony, Jinyang City began preparations as early as two months ago, and it was basically in place at this time, just waiting for the auspicious day to come, after hundreds of cannons, the little doll Liu Rong knelt down to receive the holy decree brought by Wang Yun, and asked Wang Yun to put a crown on him, and the ceremony was basically over. Of course, the previous rituals such as worshipping the heavens and ancestors are indispensable, and the subsequent expressions of gratitude are also indispensable.

As the protagonists of this canonization ceremony, Liu Rong and the eldest brother Zhao Zhenbang have been closely guarded in a newly built mansion in Jinyang City in the past few days, and they can't leave a single step. Dian Wei, the "black uncle" who was in charge of the two of them, let these two little hairs be soft and hard, wiping tears for a while, sitting on the ground and howling for a while, but he was indifferent, and let the shadow team members block the front and back doors, which really made the two little brothers who originally planned to take a good look in Jinyang City.

Don't look at Liu Rong who was born in the heavenly family since he was a child, in terms of intrigue, because no one has yet enlightened, and Zhao Xing strictly controls the people who interact with him, so this eight-year-old child is actually no different from ordinary children. Although he was destined to act as a puppet since he was brought to Jinyang, because he met Zhao Xing, his fate was still much better than that of Emperor Han Xian in his history.

Zhao Xing always believes that if you plant melons, you will get melons, and if you plant beans, you will get beans. If you plant negative emotions such as suspicion, panic and fear for this prince from the beginning, then when he grows up, he will definitely become gloomy, suspicious, and narrow-minded.

The matter of marrying the second daughter Zhao Siping to Liu Rong, Zhao Xing was not happy in his heart. Because as a cross-fert, he was very disgusted with his parents' arranged marriage, not to mention this kind of marriage that obviously had the practice of using his own flesh and blood. But unhappy is not happy, as long as Zhao Xing doesn't say it, others won't think there's anything wrong with doing this, maybe someone will slander Zhao Xing as a power traitor and use his daughter to win over King Jin, but absolutely no one thinks about the nine-year-old Zhao Siping.

In order to alleviate the uneasiness in his heart, what Zhao Xing can do now is to secretly arrange more contact with the two and a half children, so that they can have some feelings in the process of growing up, so that even if they get married in the future, they will have a certain emotional foundation, so that they will not respect each other like guests. As for letting Zhao Zhenbang accompany Liu Rong, he also hopes that the next generation of the Han family and the Zhao family can live in harmony and not turn against each other because of the change of imperial power.

Zhao Xing's wish is beautiful, but whether it can be realized is a process of water drops. In this process, the people that Liu Rong can reach are very crucial. In the future, even if Liu Rong is crowned King of Jin and has a noble and prominent status, Zhao Xing will never neglect to discipline and guide him, so that this child can live in happiness and joy, and stay away from those deceits. It would be even better if Liu Rong could concentrate on learning or making some inventions. With Zhao Xing in charge of the direction, there is basically no need for a second voice in fifty years.

On March 28th, Jinyang City was dressed up with a new look, and the people got up early in the morning to sweep the stucco street in front of the door, and then rinsed it with clean water, quite some loess mat road, clear water sprinkled street smell. Of course, all the streets in Jinyang City are now poured with mortar, and there will be no mud sticky feet when it rains. Red lanterns are hung on the gates of each house, and the shops and liquor shops in the market are also lit up, making it even more lively than the New Year.

In the palace of the King of Jin, which began to be built half a year ago and has now been completed, Liu Rong, who was wearing a royal robe, knelt under the main hall in accordance with the instructions of the adults, and took over the edict of the Son of Heaven, the national seal and the seal ribbon brought by Wang Yun with both hands. Then the guards outside the mansion lit the cannon battle that symbolized the ceremony, and after a hundred huge explosions of "boom, boom ......", the people of Jinyang City knew that they were no longer from Bingzhou in the future, but from Jinguo.

Under the witness of Wang Yun, Liu Rong, who was sitting on the throne, said in a manner according to the words that Zhao Zhenbang had repeatedly taught in the past few days: "Rong was in the chaos of Chang'an Palace, but fortunately with the protection of General Zhenbei, he would not be harmed by the gangsters. Now I am fortunate to have the mercy of the emperor's brother and seal the king in the north, and in the future, I will guard the frontier for the Han Dynasty and protect the territory and the people......"

Subsequently, Liu Rong worshiped Liu Yu as the minister of state, with the official rank of two dry stones, worshiped Zhao Xing as a lieutenant, added Taifu, and had two official ranks, and worshiped Jia Xu as a long history with two official ranks......

A long-planned ceremony of compromising between the imperial court and the local government has finally ended, and in the future, the title of the state will disappear from the Han Dynasty and be replaced by the Jin State. What kind of reaction will the forces that are paying close attention to the situation in the state after learning of this important news?
