Chapter 988: The First Emperor

The ministers were quite puzzled, why did Qingji hold his imperial ceremony in Jinling instead of Xianyang?

Isn't this a reluctance to go far? In fact, Fan Li, Sun Wu, Wu Zixu and others can understand the original intention of Qingji.

Wealth does not return to the hometown, such as brocade clothes at night. In Qingji's heart, Xianyang is indeed the political and military center of Wu now.

However, Qingji's real homeland and real hometown are still Jinling! Qingji is a person who misses old love.

Jinling is the land of Longxing of Wu State, how can Qingji forget? He wants to bring this glory to the people of Wu County, so that his fathers and fellow villagers will feel honored.

Admittedly, this would be a bit extravagant and wasteful, and it would be time-saving, but Qingji thought it was necessary.

"King, if you want Mount Tai to seal Zen, you have to go to Jinling to hold the imperial ceremony, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time." Wen Chong said hesitantly.

"The widow is not in a hurry." Qingji smiled slightly: "The widow is the lord of the world, and he deserves his name, what is lacking is that he has not yet prayed to heaven and earth, and officially reigned in the world." ”

"No!" Seeing Qingji's attitude, Wen Chong agreed. Qingji sat on the throne, looked around for a week, and said: "The second and third sons, the widow is the one who oversees the universe, dominates the world, and has established a great achievement in the past and the present. ”

"However, the king's honor can no longer bring out the dignity of the widow and the difference between the great Wu."

"That's why, if the widow wants to change the king's name, what advice do the second and third sons have?" It's a matter of course. With the merits of celebrating jealousy, there is only one

"King" is not worthy of Qingji.

"Exactly!" Daxing Ling Yanghu complimented: "The king has established an unprecedented feat, and even the three emperors and five emperors can't compare, if you don't change the title of the king, you can't call it a success, and it will be passed on to future generations!" ”

"Please take the throne of the emperor!" At this time, Kong Qiu was very active and said: "The king, the emperor, is the title of the human lord who surpasses the 'king'!" ”

"The emperor, the master of living things, the sect of Xingyi, is called the emperor because of his fertility."

"Great King Yuji, why not be called the emperor?" Emperor Wu? This is an honorific title that is understandable, but Qingji is not very satisfied.

Seeing that Qingji didn't speak, Kong Qiu came up with another set of explanations.

"The Great King, the three emperors and five emperors of ancient times, such as Xihuang Fuxi, Wahuang Nuwa, Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, Yandi Shennong, etc., are not real emperors, but only tribal leaders or tribal alliance leaders, and their 'emperor' or 'emperor' titles are added by future generations."

"The monarch of the Xia Dynasty was called 'Hou', the monarch of the Shang Dynasty was called 'Emperor', and Zhou Tianzi was called 'Wang'.

"There are the third generation of Xia Shang, the Queen of Xia, the Emperor of Shang, the King of Zhou, and the honorific title of 'Emperor', which has not really been used, and the king is just called the emperor!" Emperor Wu?

Not bad either.

"King, the minister thinks what Prime Minister Zuo said is very true!" Bo Yi immediately stood up and said with a flattering smile: "Since ancient times, the emperor is the top and the emperor is the bottom. The emperor represents the sky, the emperor represents the earth, and heaven and earth are the lords of all things. ”

"If the king is called the emperor, he is not only the master of the world, but also belongs to the Son of Heaven!"

"In ancient times, there were emperors, emperors of the earth, and emperors of Thailand, and the emperor of Thailand was the most expensive, and the 'king' could be changed to 'the emperor of Thailand'!" The Emperor, actually

"Human Emperor", that is, the legendary Taihao Fuxi.

"This Thai emperor's name Fuxi has been used, it's not good." Qingji thought about it for a moment and vetoed it. At this time, the imperial historian Fan Li came out with a tooth wat in his hand and said: "The king is a righteous soldier, punishes the remnants of the thief, pacifies the world, the sea is a county, and the laws and regulations are unified, which has not been tasted since ancient times, and the five emperors are beyond reach." ”

"The king, the emperor is the sky, and the emperor is the earth."

"The minister thinks that the king, you are both virtuous and three emperors, and you are the five emperors, ruling all things in heaven and earth, and you can take the name of the emperor and the emperor at the same time, and combine these two titles to be called 'emperor'!"

"Shhh Hearing this, the ministers couldn't help but gasp and feel shocked. Fan Li really dared to say it.

Dominate the heavens and the earth? Isn't Qingji the Son of Heaven? At best, he is the master of the world, how dare he dominate the things of heaven?

"Exactly!" Bo Yu, who reacted, immediately flattered and said: "King, in heaven and earth, only you are the king!" The Emperor's Title should start with the King! ”

"Good!" Qingji glanced at Fan Li with appreciation. Fan Li still understands Qingji's careful thinking.

Celebrate arrogance! He himself does not deny this. Having achieved such a great feat, it's not too much to celebrate the swelling of jealousy, right?

So, Qingji pushed the boat down the river, waved his big hand, and said loudly: "From now on, the widow is called the 'emperor', and the widow is the first emperor of Dawu and the first emperor of China, so he is called the 'first emperor'!" ”

"Since the widow, the successors of Great Wu, the second emperor, the third emperor, and the fourth emperor...... Dawu continues for thousands of generations, for eternity! Generations, from generation to generation! ”

"Ten thousand years of the emperor! Great Wu Wannian! The ministers all knelt down one after another, and shouted in unison. They are not familiar with this change, and they are a little awkward.

Qingji's delusional eternal lineage, even he knows that it is too. However, this is a dream that Qingji himself has, and he cannot be destroyed by others.

At this time, Kong Qiu stood up and saluted towards Qingji: "Great King, the minister thinks that the emperor is noble, and the first emperor is even more noble. In the future, subjects are not allowed to openly call the word emperor. ”

"This ......" Prince Heng said with some dumbfoundedness: "Then how to call it?" ”

"You can call it 'Your Majesty', Your Majesty the Emperor."

"Good." Qingji nodded. In fact, at this time, the name of Qingji has changed.

"Your Majesty" originally referred to the steps of the palace, and specifically to the steps in front of the emperor's seat. When the ancient emperors were on the verge of the dynasty,

On both sides of the "Majesty", there should be close ministers standing in line with blades to prevent accidents and show majesty. Ministers often could not speak directly to the emperor, but had to be conveyed by the guards who stood in His Majesty to show the exaltation of imperial power.

"Your Majesty", as the direct title of the subjects to the emperor, means that although they are speaking to the emperor, there can be no disrespect and humility in etiquette...... Kong Qiu said suspiciously: "King, the minister has a saying, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"The emperor is honorable, since the king, it is the second and third emperors, and the first line of ten thousand generations, but I don't know if the emperor dies, can he have a nickname? The minister dared to ask, and asked the king for forgiveness. ”

"It doesn't matter." Regarding this issue, in fact, Qingji has not thought about it well. The ancient emperors had era names, nicknames, temple names, honorific titles, etc., which were very complicated.

In the past dynasties of later generations, an emperor may have multiple era names, and some emperors' nicknames are not ordinarily long, smelly and long...... It is worth mentioning that the nickname began in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Zhou Gongdan and Jiang Ziya made great contributions to the Zhou room, and they were reprimanded after their deaths, which was the beginning of the law.

"The king, the minister thinks that the emperor's title can be abolished." Bo Yan made a statement and said: "The minister heard that the ancient times had a number, and the ancient times had a number, and he died and behaved quietly. ”

In this way, the son will discuss the father, and the minister will discuss the king, which is very meaningless, and it is also a great disloyalty and filial piety. From now on, I, Dawu, can abolish the law, at least not to have a nickname for the emperor! ”

"No." Before Qingji could speak, Zhisu Neishi Zeng retorted: "Those who are slanderers, the traces of deeds are also; The number is also the work of the table; The car uniform, the chapter of the position. ”

"It is to receive the big name in the big line, and the small line to receive the small name. Deeds come from oneself, and fame is born of men. ”

"The emperor is noble, has great merits, and with his nickname, he can be more exemplary!"
