Chapter 47: Asking for a posthumous name for Liu Ying

Liu Ying collapsed, and Luo Xin summoned the ministers according to the edict.

Although the emperor collapsed so quickly, he didn't expect it, but fortunately, the ministers were already mentally prepared in their hearts.

Especially Liu Ying has arranged everything, there is no room for operation, and now you just need to follow Liu Ying's original arrangement step by step.

Everyone entered the palace with mixed feelings.

When the ministers walked into the palace and looked at Luo Xin, who was standing in front of the emperor's couch, their eyes were complicated, especially the marquis Zhang Budo, the identity and status of the two sides were completely different.

Even if Luo Xin was powerful, he was still a minister.

As long as Liu Ying loses his trust in Luo Xin and dismisses him from his official position, Luo Xin will go into the wilderness.

It is impossible for the Luo clan to rebel directly because of this, so although the ministers are in awe and flattering of Luo Xin, they are still separated by a layer.

But right away, Luo Xin is the regent, a fake emperor!

"False" means "agent".

The acting Son of Heaven can hear from this title that this is not a minister, but a half-monarch.

This is a gap in personality, and if you want to launch a political attack on Luo Xin, I am afraid that you can only wait until the emperor is an adult.

But even then, did anyone really dare?

The ministers entered the hall and first cried, and went to bow down to Liu Ying's corpse, although the courtiers in this era did not need to kneel when they saw the emperor, but the deceased had to be promoted to another level.

Many people cry and cry and cry is really sad, Liu Ying is still very good to their courtiers no matter what, now that he is dead, leaving a regent who is known for his severity to dominate the world in the future, how can these people not miss Liu Ying?

Wave after wave of courtiers were like a tide, taking the Su from the hands of the palace ladies in the palace, tying them in different positions according to their official positions or blood kinship, and then prostrate in front of Liu Ying's corpse.

Then he met Zhang Yan and Liu Heng with the etiquette of the queen and the prince, Luo Xin did not need to worship, and the ministers retreated quietly after crying.

In this way, it lasted for two or three hours, and even Liu Heng was so tired that he was about to fall asleep.

Luo Xin still stood tall and stared at everyone to see if anyone was disrespectful.

Seeing that all the ministers had finished their visits, Luo Xin didn't talk nonsense, directly took out Liu Ying's edict, held it high, and said loudly: "Emperor Daxing Bintian, I will regify state affairs with Emperor Daxing's edict, and tell the ministers to know." ”

Of course, the edict cannot just rely on Liu Ying's words, even if the officials of the entire empire are there, it must be written in black and white, with a seal, to be an irrefutable and effective edict.

Naturally, no one among the ministers had any opinions, so they saluted and bowed in unison: "The regent is above, and the ministers know." ”

Luo Xin said again: "The sky cannot be without the sun, the country cannot be without a king, the crown prince should be the emperor, rule the subjects of the world, and the ministers will go to visit." ”

The ministers had solemn faces, and when they met Liu Heng, Liu Heng's eyes were rolling, and he seemed to be a little curious about the scene in front of him in a daze.

Luo Xin said again: "The ministers worship the queen mother again." ”

These three people are the three people with the highest status at present, and when the identities of the three are determined according to the edict, the transfer of power will be smooth.

Luo Xin said loudly: "The emperor lives in Changle Palace, and the Queen Mother lives in Weiyang Palace, which is handed down by Emperor Gao and Empress Gao.

From now on, the Queen Mother lives in Weiyang Palace, the emperor is still young, and lives in Weiyang Palace with the Queen Mother, and goes to Changle Palace every day to study, until she can get in touch with political affairs, and I personally teach.

Do you have any objections? ”

The arrangement is very proper, and everyone knows that this is not an important matter, there are still things to be busy with in the follow-up enthronement ceremony and canonization ceremony, and the most critical thing now is to conclude Liu Ying's coffin.

The evaluation of a person contains countless information, especially the evaluation of the monarch, and can even determine the future policy direction.

Everyone didn't expect that after Luo Xin explained what had just happened, he did not propose to start giving Liu Ying a name, but said directly: "Without further ado, the ministries should determine the burial date of Emperor Daxing as soon as possible, as well as His Majesty's enthronement ceremony, Zongzheng has to worry more." ”

Zongzheng Liu Zhengyan asked: "Prime Minister, don't you discuss the title of Emperor Daxing with the ministers?" ”

Luo Xin frowned slightly and said: "Zongzheng is not in a hurry, Emperor Daxing is the king of the Holy Ming, and the most important thing is the name and the temple number, you must not decide so hastily, finish these things first, I will inform your colleagues, and you can think about it these days." ”

The ministers were a little confused, and they didn't know what Luo Xin wanted to do, so they could only say: "The ministers know, and they will receive the order of the prime minister." ”

……

Changle Palace.

Luo Xin looked at the white silk cloth on the table with some silence.

He remembered Liu Ying lying on the hospital bed and said to him, "Father, without you and the queen mother, Ying is probably a faint king."

I really want to be like you, you have the talent to govern the country and the people, but it's a pity that Ying really doesn't have that talent, the father and the queen mother are all outstanding people, but they gave birth to me such a waste, alas, isn't this a joke of God? ”

Luo Xin comforted him at that time and said: "Your Majesty, some people in this world are good at painting, some people are good at business, some people are outstanding in the military, and some people are known for their faithfulness, and the monarchs in this world are naturally different.

Duke Qi Huan took the political commissar of the country to manage Zhong, and finally achieved the prestige of the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, will anyone say that Duke Qi Huan is incompetent?

You are a monarch like Duke Qi Huan. ”

Now that Liu Ying is gone, he suddenly thinks about it, and he wants to write a letter to Luo Ling.

So he pondered for a moment, and wrote: "The eldest brother is fine, and the younger brother bows his head."

The emperor collapsed, the younger brother was fortunate to have the first emperor Xinzhong, regent of the world, since the king of Su, this is the fourth regent of the family, since the destruction of Bangzhou, the destruction of the Luo country, between forty or fifty years, the foreign surname and ascended to the regent, this is an unprecedented luck for the family, the younger brother thinks that you should be told.

The first emperor was a benevolent king, and stupid people thought it was cowardly, but the art of war, the good fighter, did not have great achievements.

Since the first emperor ascended the throne, in the past 20 years, the court has been fine, Guanzhong has been prosperous, and the world is stable.

The merits established by the younger brother and the queen should be shared with the first emperor, which is the fairest evaluation of the first emperor, you are the head of the Luo family, in charge of the sacrifice of King Su, the younger brother asks you, can treat the first emperor more fairly from this aspect.

Brother bow goodbye!

Brother Don's first three bows! ”

The emperor's name and temple name should be on King Bingsu, but where will King Su care about these things, and King Su will fall asleep from time to time.

In fact, the power to adjudicate is here with the head of the Luo family, and sometimes the thing that covers the coffin is slightly raised or degraded, which is actually invisible.

However, Liu Ying's nickname, although the ministers have not yet discussed, basically everyone has a rough idea in their hearts, after all, there are kings like Liu Ying in the history of Bang Zhou, such as King Zhou Yi during the period of Luo Xuangong.

What Luo Xin wants to get for Liu Ying the most is the temple number, and the top temple number like Taizong naturally doesn't want to think about it, but the temple number of Renzong or Xiaozong is very in line with Liu Ying.

Luo Xin could only apply to Luo Ling for this matter, as for the result, it was not something he could know.

After the letter was written, Luo Xin gently dried it, then folded it, put it in a bamboo tube and sealed it with beeswax, and said to the daring soldier next to him: "Tired, send it to Zhaocheng and hand it over to the master of the family." ”

The dare warrior answered, took the bamboo tube and hurriedly left.

At this time, there were footsteps in the hall again, Luo Xin looked up, one big and one small, it was the Queen Mother Zhang Yan and the Emperor Liu Heng, both of whom were dressed in vegetarian clothes, Zhang Yan used to be prosperously decorated, but now not only has no jewelry on her body, but also does not apply powder on her face.

"The minister greets the Queen Mother, and meets Your Majesty."

Although Luo Xin is the regent, he has the most power.

But he is a courtier after all, and when he sees the queen mother and the emperor, the two theoretical supreme leaders of the empire, he still has to salute first.

Zhang Yan walked up to Luo Xin and said softly: "Prime Minister, in the past few days, some courtiers have written that they should establish a title for the first emperor as soon as possible, and I think it is indeed time." ”

Luo Xin thought about the days for a while, and muttered: "Then at the court meeting in the fifteenth day, let's discuss this matter." ”

said that it was a discussion, but in fact it was proposed by the ministers, and then saw that Luo Xintong did not agree, and if he did not agree, he would change again, the reason why he had to delay these days was because he had to wait for the news of the eldest brother, and it was enough to go back and forth by taking the waterway from Chang'an to Zhaocheng plus changing people and horses.

The fifteenth passed in a hurry, Luo Xin received the news from Luoling, and a smile appeared on his face, Liu Ying made Luo Xin the regent, and added a lot of points to Luoling, and Liu Ying's merits were barely good.

After all, Liu Ying is considered to have died early, and the early death of an emperor is sometimes not a bad thing, because people can only see your merits, and they will naturally raise their evaluation of the whole person.

Basilica.

Luo Xin said loudly: "Emperor Bintian, please ask the ministers to speak!" ”

"The regent is above, the prime minister, in the past there was a king in the Great Zhou Dynasty 'Yi', and your ancestor Luo Xuangong was regent, creating a prosperous era in the middle of the world, and the minister thought that 'Yi' was the most suitable emperor of Daxing."

This is indeed a very suitable nickname for Liu Ying, but Luo Xin said: "King Zhou Yi is not as talented as Emperor Daxing, so he should choose another one." ”

The nickname "Yi" is a typical epithet.

Later generations preferred emperors who expanded their territory, so it would be a big mistake to think that these emperors were not good.

In the patriarchal era, kissing, loving the people, and benevolence are all excellent evaluations.

Luo Xin rejected this evaluation because it was too easy to remind people of King Zhou Yi, King Zhou Yi's reputation was really good, but he never really held power in his life.

Liu Ying is not like this, he has really been the emperor who has held great power for several years.

"The great prime minister, the emperor of Daxing is benevolent, inquisitive and selfless, and the ministers think that it is the most appropriate to be 'Hui', and the Su Wang said in the explanation: 'Shi Qin is selfless and Hui', 'Loving the people and being studious is Hui', 'Benevolence and foresight are Hui', 'Grace and Benevolence'."

"Good!"

Luo Xin clapped his hands and laughed.
