Zhao Changqing's father devoted his life to practicing the 'benevolence' in Confucianism, and it is understandable that he was called Renzong after his death.

In the Chengping Dynasty, the early stage experienced reform and turmoil, the middle period of foreign bullying and humiliation, and too many military affairs in the later period, which really could not be called Zhongxing, and the historian also wrote steadily when he recorded.

As much as possible, he described Renzong as a virtuous emperor.

I really can't help it, I can't find too many merits, so I can only write from the aspect of morality.

As a result, Renzong's benevolence character was infinitely magnified, so that later historians, when talking about Emperor Renzong, said that he was a generation of eternal benevolent monarchs, which became a stark contrast to those previous emperors who fought and killed at every turn.

After Renzong was buried, the next day, Zhao Changqing wore a dragon robe and prepared to ascend the throne as emperor.

First, the edict was promulgated, which represented the carriage of Suncheon.

Of course, this edict is definitely not the edict of Emperor Renzong, but the abdication edict of Emperor Zhao Changyuan of Wei Ling, which basically says that he is ashamed of his virtue, causing chaos in the world, and Zhao Changqing is of noble character and suitable to be the emperor.

At first, when Zhao Changqing heard this edict, he was still a little surprised, but after careful inquiry, he learned that Zhuge Liang asked Zhao Changyuan to write it.

All right.

I have to say that Zhao Changqing was a little angry when he heard this edict.

Once this edict is announced to the world, will it affect his reputation as a mediocre person?

Zhao Changqing's enthronement ceremony was very embarrassing, only the state of Chu sent ministers to congratulate him, and none of the foreign ministers of the rest of the countries came.

This means that no one in other countries, except for the strategic ally of Chu, recognizes his throne.

Of course, it doesn't matter if they admit it or not.

Hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down outside the Chengde Hall in turn.

The musicians in the palace began to play.

In short, this enthronement ceremony will be as grand as it is.

When Zhao Changqing came to the front of the Chengde Hall surrounded by the inner servants, someone presented the jade seal of the country, the important treasure of the country, and after receiving the jade seal of the country, Huang Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, got up and read out the edict of enthronement.

After reading it, Zhao Changqing already wanted to scold his mother.

Huang Cheng bowed to Zhao Changqing and said loudly: "The sacrifice is completed, please take the throne of the emperor." ”

Zhao Changqing was led by the inner attendant to the throne and sat on the dragon chair.

With every step, someone shouted, "Your Majesty, please take the throne!"

After sitting on the dragon chair, Zhao Changqing thought that the process was over, and who knew what else he would need. ’

After the shift is arranged, the ministers have to bow and bow, first three times and again and again, among them, the palace music points to the end, in short, there are many rules, and there are many great etiquette.

Even by the time the last hundred officials were in place and the ministers were congratulated, it had already taken more than two hours.

Then, under the guidance of the Tongzan official and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the ministers also knelt and bowed to the emperor three times and nine times, so that the entire enthronement ceremony was basically completed.

And Zhao Changqing is also the first emperor of the Great Wei Kingdom without a queen in history.

After this whole set of processes, Zhao Changqing was already very tired, almost a whole day, and his heart was too tired.

From now on, Zhao Changqing will call himself me.

Since he has become the emperor, the former meritorious ministers and ministers of the dragon will naturally be rewarded.

Zhao Changqing was wearing a crown, sitting on the dragon chair, and when he saw the people kneeling and worshipping in the audience, he immediately felt the weight of authority.

After the emperor ascended the throne, he first had to appease the universe, that is, to amnesty the world.

I also have to go to the temple to worship my ancestors.

By the time everything is almost busy, and it is already evening, the reward can only be left for tomorrow.

The next day, the morning meeting.

Zhao Changqing went to court for the first time.

It's rare not to be late.

He first issued several rewards, all of which were aimed at Zhuge Liang and them,

Canonized Cao Shen as the general of Tiance, the captain, the nine tins, and the leader of the Imperial Forest Army.

Canonized Zhuge Liang as the third product under the same central door, the middle book order, the title of Wu Guogong, the iron scroll of exemption from death, and the command of hundreds of officials.

Canonized Zhao Yun as a hussar general, Zhao Guogong concurrently served as a squire in the military department, and led the Praetorian Guard.

Canonized Xiao Yuming as the Duke of Youguo, the general of the auxiliary country, led the military guards, and gave Jiuxi.

Canonized Chen Qingzhi as Hu Guogong, the general of Zhenguo, the leader of the cavalry, and the nine tins.

Canonized Jian Yi as the Great Wei Sword Saint, the former general, led the halberd, protected the safety of the palace, and sealed the Sword Pavilion as the national sect and gave the Son of Heaven a sword.

Since then, Zhao Changqing's Five Tiger Generals have taken shape.

Zhuge Liang and the others were very grateful, they never expected that the reward they received would be so grand.

However, they never expected that Zhao Changqing was just not very clear about the scale of this reward.

Otherwise, after knowing that the reward is so heavy, he will not be rewarded like this.

The Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers were so dissatisfied, wasn't it just from the dragon's merits?

It's too...

Amazing.

But after they heard about the change in Xuanwumen, they all looked at Zhao Changqing as the leader, which one dared to openly oppose him!

And because Zhao Changqing couldn't understand the complicated names of the guards and the army, he greatly rectified it, that is, the 150,000 armed guards commanded the safety of the outer city of the capital.

The Imperial Forest Army was responsible for the security of the inner city and commanded 150,000 troops.

The Praetorian Guard was responsible for patrolling and guarding the streets of the city, commanding 150,000 troops.

and set up a cavalry guard, commanding the most elite iron cavalry of the Wei State, and the number of troops set up is about 150,000.

A new army was built by Jianyi, named Euphorbia, with swords, to protect the safety of the palace.

Under the command of the above armies, each battalion is set up, and the generals of each battalion are governed separately.

There were 700,000 troops, and they were hastily arranged by Zhao Changqing.

At the beginning, Zhuge Liang resolutely disagreed with this arrangement, the central government has never arranged the army in this way throughout the ages, and after a long time, Zhao Yun will support the army and respect themselves.

But for Zhao Changqing, the more Zhuge Liang opposes, the more he has to do it.

His approach also made many civil and military ministers secretly scold him for being mediocre.

But they really couldn't imagine that what Zhao Changqing needed was this effect.

However, what Zhao Changqing also did not expect, under Zhao Changqing's repeated insistence, Zhuge Liang actually agreed, and became very agreeable.

This happened before the court meeting, after ascending the throne, just because Zhuge Liang heard Cao Shen say, "Military advisor, do you really think that such a clever person as Your Majesty will put such a huge army in our hands and control it with peace of mind?"

This is just an expedient measure on the part of His Majesty, and secondly, it is even more ruthless than relieving us of military power.

The military advisors may wish to take a look at the five major army corps, do they seem to be ready to go on the expedition at all times? Each legion has set up its own battalion under its command, and the generals of each battalion are all in good faith with His Majesty.

Most of these 700,000 troops are the army that followed His Majesty all the way from Qingzhou, and the real military power is still under His Majesty's control. ”

Zhuge Liangzhi is almost like a demon, and after carefully analyzing what Cao Shen said, he was shocked in his heart, "All the legions are basically in the capital, in fact, the legions are divided into battalions, the name of the legion is just a false name prepared for the expedition at all times, and the real lifeblood of military power is still firmly in the hands of His Majesty." ”

The original various military guards are unified into a large army, which is always ready for the convenience of the expedition, since it is to prepare for the expedition, it is natural to set up various battalions, so from this point of view, this so-called Praetorian Guard, the Royal Forest Army and other large legions are just in name only.

Even if the commander-in-chief of the legion is Xiao Yuming, what can they do?

Since the legion is set up in the capital, the deployment of troops not only requires a military talisman, but also a holy decree.

Even if there is no need for a holy decree, the battalions are governed separately, and the legions are kept in check with each other...

Hiss...

When Zhuge Liang thought of this at that time, he broke out in a cold sweat.

However, all of this was just convenient for Zhao Changqing, and he didn't have to worry about it at all.

He thought that setting up a large army size would allow for better redundancy, right?

As for the special emphasis on setting up each battalion, it is because Zhao Changqing thinks that he can recruit more troops and buy horses with face-to-face points, and the redundant state of troops will definitely be more difficult to control.

When the battalions are enriched, aren't the legions enriched?
