In the early morning of the next day, although Mu Sheng was nominally on the throne, he still temporarily lived in the East Palace, and he could only wait for the state funeral of the first emperor to be processed and the enthronement ceremony to be held, before he could officially move into the main palace to live.

At this time, Wei Wei Gao Zhong came to the audience with a batch of documents, and Gao Zhong stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, Weichen is here today to determine the name of the new dynasty to change the first year, the regulations of the first emperor's funeral, etc., please read it." ”

Mu Sheng took the piece and looked through it carefully.

Mu Sheng looked at the chapter, put it on the desk, and asked, "Gao Qing's family, this year is named Jinglong?" ”

Gao Zhong said: "Yes, Your Majesty, the word Jing means vast, the word Long means prosperity and longevity, and all the ministers also agree with this number after the discussion, please Your Majesty." ”

Mu Sheng said silently: "Jinglong? Good! Very good! It's a good word......"

Mu Sheng was just about to make a decision to set this era name, but he suddenly remembered a tragic emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu, the only son died of illness, and the seat was snatched back by his own brother Wara student "Ming God of War" Zhu Qizhen, after Emperor Jingtai lost the throne by the change of seizing the door, he was actually strangled to death by Ming Yingzong's order.

When the Mongolian army of hundreds of thousands of troops went south to surround Beijing, if it were not for the Jingtai Emperor who was ordered to turn the tide with Yu Qian and Yu Shaobao, I was only a hundred years old in the Ming Dynasty, and I had to reproduce the five chaotic Chinese and the clothes of the south, just like the story of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the emperor with such merits ended up like this, it is really too wretched.

Although the names of Jinglong and Jingtai were only one word apart, Mu Sheng quickly rejected this plan in his heart.

Since that day, Prime Minister Huo Cheng handed over the truth to him in front of the body of the first emperor, Mu Sheng just guessed with his ass that he must have robbed An Guojun of the throne, which robbed his brother's throne, and also named Jinglong? What does this mean? No, this is not good, you must not use this era name, you have to think of another one.

Gao Zhong saw the emperor get up and walk around the hall, and he didn't speak, at first the emperor looked quite happy when he heard this era name, and when he turned his face, his face became cloudy, and Gao Chong's heart was also up and down, because this era name was given by him.

After a few turns, Mu Sheng already had a plan in his heart, and it was not good for him to directly refute the opinions of Prime Minister Huo Cheng's henchmen in person, so he had to turn around and sit in front of the desk and say to Gao Zhong and Yan Yuese:

"Gao Qing's family, I thought this number was really good, and the meaning was very good, but I thought that this number was just blessing me alone, not the world, what did Gao Qing's family think?"

When Gao Chong heard this, he was stunned for a long time, and he understood that maybe the emperor was not very satisfied with this era name, so he had to say: "Your Majesty, since this is the case, the minister is thinking of another era name with his colleagues." ”

When Mu Sheng heard this, he waved his hand and said: "It's not necessary, I have already thought about it, the sage cloud, the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light, I will think of the people of the world in the future, and practice virtue and politics in the world, so that the people of the world can live a prosperous life and enjoy peace and prosperity forever." ”

Mu Sheng raised his pen and wrote two big words on the imperial case: "Yongning." ”

Mu Sheng finished writing and said, "Gao Qing's family, what do you think of this number?" ”

Gao Zhong immediately reacted, and a series of rainbow farts came out one after another, and said: "Your Majesty's holy candlelight, the word Yongning means that the world will always be peaceful, Your Majesty's future virtue and politics in the world, it is really the luck of my dynasty, the blessing of the people of the world, Your Majesty's benevolence will be glorious for eternity, Your Majesty for ten thousand years, and Dajin for ten thousand years." ”

Mu Sheng smiled at this sycophant and said, "If the Gao Qing family has no objection, then use this number!" ”

Gao Zhong said: "The minister has no objection. ”

Finalized the name of the year of the change of the yuan, and the next thing is the specific matter of the first imperial funeral, which is for Mu Sheng to take the lead in person, and he must not be careless, and he will be the host of the entire state funeral ceremony at that time.

Mu Sheng looked at the music in his hand, his brows tightened, and finally asked Gao Zhong in a consultative tone: "Gao Qing's family, is it possible to give the first emperor a nickname to show his old man's martial arts?" ”

The reason why Mu Sheng has this question is that in the history of the Jin Kingdom, since King Wu of the Jin Dynasty called the emperor, the second emperor, until the third emperor of the first emperor, each generation of emperors did not go to the name after his death, and the Jin family called the emperor to abolish the popular and Yu Dynasty period of the name system, the ministers discussed the monarch, for the great disrespect, just like the practice of Qin Shi Huang back then, he wanted to test whether he could restore the past name system today.

Sure enough, Gao Chong's face was embarrassed, and he pondered for a long time before he said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are disloyal and unfilial, this is a rule set in the era of the first emperor, and now it seems inappropriate to break the routine rashly, of course, Weichen also understands His Majesty's filial piety to the first emperor, since the first emperor ascended the throne, he swept Liuhe, and it only took ten years to level the Kwantung princes in one fell swoop, and cover the world, such great achievements, shaking the ancient and modern, the three emperors, and the five emperors, but so, Weichen thinks that it is indeed imperative to consider the name of the first emperor, The minister seconded the proposal, and the minister went to Huo Xiangguo to convene a court meeting to discuss the matter. ”

Mu Sheng bowed his head and said, "Okay, then please leave this matter to Gao Qing's family." ”

Gao Zhong said politely: "Your Majesty is polite, this is the duty of a minister." ”

Seeing Gao Chong's back when he went out, Mu Sheng was a little surprised by Gao Chong's performance today, this Wei Wei Gao Zhong, one of the dignified Nine Emperors, as the core henchman of Prime Minister Huo Cheng, actually echoed him, the vain monarch, it was really interesting, it seemed that there was a possibility to fight.

Maybe Gao Zhong is both ends of the court, paving the way for his future, after all, Zuo Prime Minister Huo Zheng is seven out of fifty, and he is even three years older than the first emperor, and he belongs to the person who is half buried in the loess, although the power is now monstrous, but once Huo Zheng dies of old age one day, or suddenly dies of illness, the power will return to the hands of the young emperor, although Mu Sheng is an empty monarch, but there is a righteous name, the old power core is gone, naturally most people's first thought is to get closer to the emperor, the justifiable boss, It is also like the story of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, it may also be that Gao Zhong is better pretending to be on the surface, after all, he is Prime Minister Huo Cheng's confidant, in the process of future interactions, he still has to be carefully tempted repeatedly, if Gao Zhong can take the initiative to get closer, then he will have a huge obstacle on the road to power in the future, and a huge help out of thin air, even if he can maintain a neutral attitude!

Retracting his thoughts, Mu Sheng picked up the brush and wrote a few words on the bamboo slip, "No haste, be patient" Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as the mentality is as stable as an old dog, it will naturally break ten thousand laws.

In the afternoon, Mu Sheng had just finished his lunch under Yang Jin's waiting, and a temple man came to the East Palace to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Xiangguo organized a court meeting, and asked Your Majesty to move to the Four Seas Hall to listen to the government." ”

"Yes, I see."

Yang Jin hurriedly stepped forward to take his coat and put it on Mu Sheng's body, and after packing it up, Mu Sheng had to go to the main hall to listen to the government.

In the palace of the four seas, the ministers and ministers gathered together, naturally for the sake of this morning, the emperor proposed to give the first emperor the third emperor a name, this matter is not big, it is not small, this is also the ancestral system, it is still difficult to break the convention.

Mu Sheng actually didn't have much hope in his heart, besides, he hadn't officially ascended the throne yet, to put it bluntly, he didn't have any power at all, and the court only had the power to listen to the government, and he had to discuss anything with the auxiliary ministers headed by Huo Zheng, and whether he could make a decision or not had to be decided by them, of course, the ministers would still respect Mu Sheng's opinion as the acting emperor, and after the enthronement ceremony, he was the leader of the 28th Classic, and there was no need to leave a bad impression on the big leader in this kind of matter.

After a while, Mu Sheng entered the main hall, and Yang Jin shouted: "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

Just now, a bunch of ministers were whispering to each other, and when they saw the emperor coming, they immediately got up and saluted: "Ministers greet Your Majesty." ”

After Mu Sheng Shi Ran sat on the throne, he pressed his hands and said, "Zhongqing is flat." ”

When Prime Minister Huo Zheng saw the emperor arrive, he got up and said: "Colleagues, the old minister summoned you to the imperial court today to discuss whether the emperor should be called or not, and you can speak freely. ”

The ministers listened to Huo Zheng's proposal, looked at each other, and after a while, Fengchang Zhang Xi, one of the nine Qings, stepped forward and asked: "Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely not feasible, the old minister thinks that not to be called is a rule set in the era of the first emperor, the second emperor followed it, and the first emperor did not raise any objections when he was alive, and the ministers thought that the ancestral system could not be moved lightly, please Your Majesty to be clear." ”

One of the Nine Emperors, the pawn Chen Zhen, stepped forward and said: "The minister seconded the proposal, Your Majesty, since the Xiling Emperor changed the law, I have ruled the country by law, and it is indeed disloyal to the ministers to act like this. ”

At this time, several officials also sided with Chen Jian and Zhang Xi, and they all seconded and agreed.

At this time, Shi Tianjian, one of the nine Qings, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that this is a big fallacy, and the minister thinks that the emperor will unify China with the Daxing Emperor, the car is on the same track, the book is the same text, and the killing of hundreds of years between the countries has stopped. ”

Hearing this, Tingwei Ma Xin came out of the crowd, and stepped forward to speak: "The minister seconded the proposal, Lord Tian is reasonable, and the prestige of the first emperor should be glorified in the annals of history." ”

After Ma Xin said this, several ministers stood up and stood on Tian Jian's side.

As the two factions debated with each other, the rest of the neutral ministers also took sides, and the discussion lasted for an entire afternoon, and the two sides spoke sharply, and the number of ministers who supported both sides' views was about the same, and it was basically clear.

At this moment, Huo Zheng stepped forward and whispered to the emperor before turning around and saying, "Colleagues, the hour is not early, let's discuss here today, and after an hour, you will have a court discussion." ”

When the ministers heard this, they had to temporarily retreat.

Mu Sheng returned to the apse, at this time Huo Zheng and Gao Zhong followed behind, Mu Sheng knew that they wanted to pause for a while to discuss with themselves.

Huo Zheng asked, "The minister wants to know how His Majesty plans it?" ”

Mu Sheng said: "Huo Xiangguo, I have always been uneasy in my heart, especially at the moment when I knew the true death of the first emperor, I have never been steady in my heart, and I want to comfort the first emperor's spirit in the sky." ”

As soon as these words came out, Huo Zheng and Gao Zhong understood what they meant as soon as they heard it, the emperor was afraid that he would not be in the right position, and wanted to put more gold on the face of the first emperor to prove the legitimacy of his legitimate succession. Anyway, the so-called filial piety can only be emphasized at the funeral of the ancestors, even if the so-called filial piety is for outsiders to see, but its political significance is extraordinary, especially the royal family.

Zuo Prime Minister Huo Zheng had a little calculation in his heart, so he made a judgment, supporting the emperor in this matter, because the three of them are currently grasshoppers on a rope, one is prosperous, and the other is lost, and there is no harm in putting a gold paste on the face of the first emperor, not to mention that at least half of the ministers supported it when the court was discussed, and the consensus was at least half solved, and the remaining means of disagreement were enough.
