Chapter 1065: Enthronement Wedding
Hearing the name of the corpse soldier, not only the Immortal Sheep King, but even the Sea Dragon King and the Yin Snake King next to him had already changed their expressions!
Corpse soldiers! They are not the most powerful in the human world, but they are the most notorious! These people are no longer living people, they are just a group of walking corpses!
"It's a big problem!" the Fairy Sheep King muttered to himself. Even in the face of the demonic beasts of the demon world, he didn't say such a thing, and after hearing Xuanbao say about the corpse soldiers, he felt that the matter was too tricky!
Whether it is a heavenly soldier or a god general, you can deal with corpse soldiers, and you can have an advantage in battle, but it is not worth fighting!
With the combat power of the corpse soldiers, even if a hundred corpse soldiers fight out a heavenly soldier, there are almost a million corpse soldiers in the inner wasteland, and it is really not cost-effective to consume nearly 10,000 heavenly soldiers!
If you send an ordinary Xuan army, this number will be reversed! Therefore, on the Bailuan Continent, no country is willing to fight against the corpse soldiers, this is destined to be an unpleasant battle!
This matter must be discussed together to discuss the way to deal with the corpse soldiers, and now it is better to prepare for the enthronement ceremony first!
The whole of Nanping is busy in an orderly manner, making the final preparations. The palace has begun to clean up people, this is the place where Xuanbao will go to the court in the future, but today's hall is not here.
In the southern suburbs of Nanping, everyone rammed up a clay altar, on which the sacrificial utensils were placed, there were incense cases and square Ding furnaces, a golden chair in the middle, sitting north to south. There was a gold case in front of it, on which was a folded dragon robe.
This is the suburban altar, the place where Xuanbao ascended the throne! At this moment, Mo Li is directing everyone to arrange shifts, that is, to stand, according to the court class recital that Xuanbao has already seen, this former king of Shujing will become the first prime minister of the Xuan Dynasty!
Xuanbao originally wanted his master Liu Rufeng to be the prime minister, but since Mo Li really entered the Xuan Army, Liu Rufeng took the initiative to recommend this former king of Shujing to serve as the prime minister through a certain period of contact.
He is the general of the Yin Dynasty, the official to the marshal, and even the king of Shujing, not only familiar with the government and politics, but also more familiar with the war, and although Liu Rufeng is the cornerstone of the world's martial arts - the head of the Pure Water Lotus, he is more than the style of the court, so he is not suitable to be the prime minister.
Xuan Bao also agreed to the position on the court's table, and after ascending the throne, he immediately announced the appointment.
The etiquette and legal system still follow the ugly dynasty and have not changed much. Only some necessary additions and deletions have been made, and even the court clothes have not changed much, but in the position of the neckline and cuffs, there is an extra layer of seven-colored water lines.
The seven-color dragon flag is the battle flag used in the battle of Xuanbao, and now it has become the national flag of the Xuan Dynasty, and it has long been known to the world.
Seeing Xuanbao come back, the people around the suburban altar breathed a sigh of relief, they were still afraid that Xuanbao would not come back in time and delay the auspicious time to ascend the throne, which was not a good sign!
The four god kings came out of the original realm, Jiao'er and Tongyao sat in the sedan chair that had been prepared, left the suburban altar, and returned to the palace. Although they ascended the throne in the suburbs, the wedding ceremony was held in the palace, so they did not stay here.
Outside the suburbs, there are crowds of black oppression, the new emperor ascended the throne here, and the most blessed are the people of the three towns, who have witnessed the beginning of a new dynasty. Even if the imperial palace is still moved to the capital of Jiangxi and Beijing in the future, these three towns will become Jiangnan Fujing, and the emperor will definitely settle here on his southern tour!
600,000 Xuan troops, 200,000 stationed here. 50,000 Kiss Army stayed in the Styx Lake to keep an eye on the East China Sea, and 150,000 Xuanwu Army stayed in Yusheng Pass, most of them were the original Tiger Courage Army! 50,000 troops stayed in Lei City, 50,000 were deployed to defend Lotus Ferry and Lotus Crossing, and the remaining 100,000 were the Donggang Huilong Army under the Qilin Army!
There are also 100,000 new soldiers, who are now being trained in the Cheongju generation, and it will take at least half a year before they can be replenished to the corps. That is to say, when the war against Jiangbei starts, the 200,000 base camp troops that can be mobilized, plus the 50,000 Xuanwu Army that defends the ferry, and 50,000 people from Dongshui are transferred to form a flanking attack from behind to attack Jiangbei, and the Xuanjun Army has a total of 300,000 troops!
This number is simply unbearable compared to those corpse soldiers in the inner wasteland! The situation is very grim, and Xuan Bao can be said to be worried!
However, everything has to be considered later, the biggest advantage of the Xuan army now is that it can suddenly appear under the nose of the enemy by surprise, bypassing their layers of protection, in this way, even if the disparity in strength is huge, it is a sure victory!
The auspicious time has arrived, and the hundred officials are in place. The ritual music was played, and Xuanbao slowly ascended to the suburban altar, first to sacrifice to the sky. However, this is also for show, because the sacrifices of the emperors of the Bailuan Continent are all worshiped by the Xuanyu Emperor ten thousand years ago!
For many people present, Xuanbao is the reincarnation of the God Emperor, and it is unlucky if he does not worship himself, so it is just a stick of incense, three glasses of wine, and no need to kowtow.
Then Tong Huan, who acted as a deacon, held the dragon robe in both hands, and Meng Haoran held the crown and knelt in front of Xuanbao. You Mo Li put on the dragon robe for Xuanbao, put on the crown, and then walked behind the golden case and sat on the golden chair!
At this time, all the people bowed down and said "Long live!" The ritual music was played, and all the people bowed three times. After getting up, the music stopped, and the loudest Ma Changming shouted: "Row up!"
This is the announcement of the ministers of the court! Xuanbao took the court's class recital, read it name by name, and read the name to the middle stop. Mo Li is the prime minister, Liu Rufeng is the prince, Long Jiao is the captain, Shi Wuce is the long history and so on.
The court schedule is very finely divided, there are those who are specially in charge of the army, those who are in charge of the people, those who are in charge of money, and those who are in charge of food, which are very detailed, so that Xuanbao almost read it for half an hour before he finished reading, and there are already hundreds of ministers standing below!
This is the cornerstone of the Xuan Dynasty, and the entire Central Plains will depend on them to govern in the future. Some people know Xuanbao, some people haven't even seen it, they were dug up by Mo Li or others from Jiangbei and Jiangnan, they are all talented people, who have been assessed by everyone and can take on important responsibilities.
Xuanbao is also relieved to make bold appointments, he has always been the only one, so no matter whether he recognizes it or not, as long as it is listed on the table, he will not ask.
After the row was completed, the music sounded again, and this time the hundred officials bowed three times and bowed nine times, saying long live. All the people of the city bowed down and shouted thunderously. At this point, Xuanbao has officially become the emperor, changed the country name to Xuan, and changed the year name to the first year of the Xuan Dynasty.
At the end of the enthronement ceremony, it was already noon, but it was the auspicious time of the wedding, and the entire Nanping City had been surrounded by red lanterns, and the twelve concubines were all waiting in the side hall of the palace.
This is not in accordance with the rules, because the emperor's wedding is established, and no matter how favored the imperial concubine is, there will be no wedding gift.
But Xuanbao just wants to make the eighteen concubines have no grievances in their hearts, and they have already discussed with Xiao Yin, this big wedding is the collective wedding of Xuanbao and the eighteen concubines in the future.
This is a compensation made by Xuanbao for the predecessor, and he doesn't want the tragedy to happen again, so even if it is unreasonable, he insists on doing it!
Fortunately, the eighteenth concubine is not a young lady from the courtyard of the deep house, she has never seen outsiders in her life, and before marrying Xuanbao, she has already walked the rivers and lakes, and has been recognized by the world and liked by the people.
What's more, everyone knows that the emperor is in a hurry to obey the power, because he is about to attack Jiangbei!
Enthronement and big weddings are to raise morale. The people couldn't see Emperor Yin's demons, what they saw was the Helan people entering Beijing, so the Xuanjun sent troops this time to drive away foreign humiliation and calm the world by the way. With this kind of thing for the benefit of all people, why should we care about the slightest transgression of etiquette?
Therefore, although the big wedding this time is urgent, it is very lively! It is the first time that a person in the Bailuan Continent has married nineteen women at the same time, and all of them are fairies who are stunning in the world and captivate the country and the city!
At the end of all the ceremonies, Xuanbao announced that he would give amnesty to the world and feast in Nanping City for three days! Xuanbao did not stay in the palace, but went to the streets, rejoicing with the people, and it took three days to walk all over Nanping City, and he didn't eat a grain of rice, and drank a stomach full of wine!
On the last night, Xuanbao, who finally walked to the Nanping military camp, said that he would not go in at all. In the past three days and three nights, the entire Nanping City has been having fun all night, and every time Xuanbao wants to go back to the palace, he doesn't know who pulled him to the wine table!
Everywhere you can see, it's all people, and all the people are drinking. There was no one on the street, not even the guards, as long as they saw someone, they were pulled in by the people in the house to drink, whether they knew each other or not, and drank three bowls!
Xuanbao was still wearing a dragon robe on the first day, but he took off the dragon robe on the second day, and on the third day, he couldn't see what clothes he was wearing, it was all wine stains. Even if Xuanbao Qianbei is not drunk, he can't stand this way of drinking, I don't know how much wine I poured in three days, and my head is a little dizzy!
In fact, a large number of people drink alcohol, but they don't know each other at all. When he arrived at the Xuanjun camp, the sentry almost didn't recognize him, so he hurriedly called Long Jiao and You Yong to come out to greet him in person, thinking of having a good drink with Xuanbao again, but seeing his current appearance, he couldn't bear it anymore, and sent him back to the palace overnight.
A group of brides were really angry and distressed when they saw Xuanbao's appearance, they couldn't find anyone on the wedding night, they went out for three days in a row, and when they came back, they became like this, and only Xuanbao could do it!
However, all the women knew that he went out to have fun with the people, so they did not blame him, but served him to bathe and change his clothes, and helped him to the bed to breathe all night.
What's even more ridiculous is that the dragon robe was actually lost! So he sent people to look for it door to door, and searched all the places where Xuanbao had stayed in the past three days, but he couldn't find it, but it was a farmer in the suburbs, holding the dragon robe in both hands and sending it to the palace!
Only then did everyone know that it was the emperor who sat at the same table and drank with them that night!
Xuanbao wore a dragon robe to drink in the suburbs, took off the dragon robe and walked around the city, this is to tell the people, don't have a distinction between rich and poor, I, Xuanbao, is the emperor of everyone, the rich people in the city know my appearance, and the poor people in the suburbs can also drink at the same table with the emperor!
Mo Li held the dragon robe in both hands, ordered the left and right to reward the farmer, and then looked at the palace behind him, nodded, and whispered two words in his mouth: "People's heart!"
At this point, the prince of the former dynasty, the prime minister of the Xuan Dynasty, finally let go of all the knots in his heart and understood the root of the fall of the Yin Dynasty!
The combat power of the Xuan Army is not the best, compared with the Yin Army that attacked the Chou Dynasty back then, it is really a lot different, the earliest Central Plains Five Army, the basic function of the Tiger Courage Army is considered to be the middle and lower.
It was the Yin Dynasty that began to fester, which led to the decline of military power. And the bigger reason is that the Xuanjun has won the hearts and minds of the people! With such an emperor, why worry about being invincible?
