vs 250 The dust settles
A few days later, Ding Mao in August of the year of Wushu was an auspicious day.
In the high temple of Liu Bang under the palace wall of Changle Palace, dozens of children chanted the gale song made by Liu Bang: "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying......"
Generally speaking, when this imperial poem sounds, it is usually the Han dynasty that has a major event to announce in the high temple, such as tearing the earth to seal the king, conquering the traitors, etc.
At this moment, Liu Che knelt in the middle of the main hall of the high temple.
There were hundreds of civil and military officials, princes and nobles watching the ceremony.
Liu Che's father, when today's son Liu Qi holds a coin that symbolizes the authority of the Son of Heaven, stands quietly in front of Liu Bang's statue.
Liu Li, who had just been appointed as the new Zongzheng, spread out a silk book, knelt behind the Son of Heaven, and read the sacrificial text.
Liu Che was prostrate on the ground, and all he could hear in his ears was the sound of the high temple bells and the chanting of the singing boys.
A quarter of an hour later, Zong Zheng finished reciting the sacrificial text, and then threw the silk book with the sacrificial text into the fire tray in front of Liu Bangling and burned it. Then, slowly bowed down and took three steps back, bowed three times to the statue of Liu Bang, and pleased: "In August Ding Mao of the year of Wushu, the minister Liu Li respectfully played the Taizu: there is the prince Liu Che, who is honest and benevolent, and there is a priest who said: The prince can be established to re-emphasize the temple...... Ministers and other respects to play in the majesty, please your majesty xià holy judgment! ”
Since the Shang Dynasty first appointed a crown prince, this has been an indispensable procedure - to report to the ancestors, and the ancestors have approved before they can be officially canonized.
Otherwise, the ancestors don't approve of it, why are you still the prince?
However, this system has been broken during the Warring States period.
All sorts of cheating methods and methods have been studied, anyway. As long as the monarch wants to appoint a crown prince, then the eternal ancestors will gladly approve of it.
Even. In order to implement the will of the Son of Heaven and finally implement it, Zongzheng Yamen justifiably discussed several different sets of plans.
According to the procedure, Liu Che kowtowed and kowtowed.
Then, he heard Liu Li's voice: "Congratulations to the Holy Son of Heaven, Taizu has promised, the Divine Turtle occupies a good omen, Dahengzhi!" ”
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, heard this. Holding the coin, he bowed three times to Liu Bang's spiritual throne, and Liu Che and other ministers immediately followed suit.
And then. Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, stood up, held the Gui coin, faced Liu Che, and ordered: "Boy Liu Che." Bow down in front of the Taizu Spirit! ”
"No!" Liu Che kowtowed repeatedly. Then he stepped forward and knelt down in front of Daddy.
"Kid Toru!" Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, suddenly raised his voice.
Liu De then got up, kowtowed again, and said: "Son-in-law Liu Che respectfully hears the holy will of his father!" ”
At this time, Lieutenant Zhou Yafu stood on Liu Che's right side from the group of generals on the right, holding a sword in his hand.
The imperial historian was wrong, holding a scroll of bamboo slips and a silk book. Stand to the left of Liu Che.
The two turned around one by one and faced Liu Che, who was kneeling in the middle. Then he stepped forward and bowed to Liu Che, saying that they represented the civil and military officials and recognized Liu Che's supreme status.
Originally, according to tradition, this procedure should have been carried out by the prime minister and the lieutenant.
It's just that the Han family has been vacant for more than ten years, and the prime minister is also vacant at this time, so he can only choose Zhou Yafu and Chao Cuo to serve as the ceremonial officials.
"Woohoo! Boy Toru! Subject to the crown of Zixuan, Jian'er Palace! Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said in a deep voice.
Immediately, nine attendants held a brand new crown crown hat and presented it to the Son of Heaven.
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, took the crown hat, walked in front of Liu Che, untied the old crown on Liu Che's head with his own hands, and put the new crown on him for him.
This new crown hat is still nine.
However, the shape has changed dramatically.
Take the paulownia wood as the board, cover the Qi outside, Xuanbiao (upper) Zhuli (lower), the front round and the back, the front and back are hung nine respectively, each with colorful reeling through the red, white, green, yellow, black five-color jade beads nine. Use the jade balance to maintain the crown, the two ends are filled with the ears with the green silk of the Xuanzhen, the green jade beads are used, and the white jade is inherited below. The crown is inserted with a golden hairpin, tied to Zhu Hong, Zhu Ying.
The extraordinaryness and excellence of this crown are evident everywhere.
Liu Che wore this brand-new crown and paused again: "No! Erchen Liu Che keep it in mind! ”
Then, the two attendants helped Liu Che to stand up.
According to the procedures that had been trained long ago, Liu Che faced the civil and military officials, princes and nobles, and bowed solemnly.
The ministers returned the salute with a bow.
At this time, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said again: "Boy Che, accept Zi Jiangyi, Lier Weifu!" ”
So, another attendant came in with a brand-new prince robe and draped it on Liu Che's body.
"Xi'er's heart, I inherit the order of heaven, Li'er is the heir, woohoo! Boy Toru, read it! Gong Zhen's edict, only the fate is impermanent! Alack! Boy Tosh, its order is prescribed! ”
As the words of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, landed, and in an instant, the entire Gaomiao drum music was played, and the chimes rang in unison.
Liu Che stood up, tied the new prince's robe to his body, put on the ribbon, faced the ministers, gently opened his hands, and then softly announced to the world: "Lonely is ordered by the sky!" (Of course, it's not God, it means the Son of Heaven)
He took a step forward.
Zhou Yafu pinned the sword he was holding to Liu Che's waist.
Chao Cuo bowed down and handed the bamboo slips and silk books he was holding to Liu Che's hands.
Boom!
Liu Che pulled out the sword, holding the book in his left hand and the sword in his right hand, he stood the sword on his chest, and the book was placed under the hilt of the sword, and said loudly: "The ancestral system of the Han family, holding the sword in one hand and the book in the other, is lonely and inherits his fate!" ”
This last paragraph of the procedure was not originally available, but Liu Che specially added it after discussing with him.
Without this procedure, it is not enough to show Liu Che's current status and ambition.
And Liu Qi, the son of heaven, did not object, it was very simple, since he decided to canonize the crown prince, as far as he was concerned, unless he hit his head and broke the blood flow, he would not change it.
Moreover, the procedure proposed by Liu Che is very necessary, that is, it can announce the prince's political attitude to the world, and it will not be too high-profile and cause disgust.
Civil and military officials, ministers, nobles, princes, and relatives have bowed their heads to the ground, kowtowing and bowing again.
Only then did Liu Che turn around and kowtow to his father: "Retainer Liu Che bows to his father, and respectfully asks St. An!" ”
Calling himself a retainer is because of the Han tradition. The prince called the lonely widow, and the minister called the prince home, which means the country. Fundamentally, it is also known as the family order of the crown prince Zhan.
"Flat!" Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, laughed, stepped forward to take Liu Che's hand, and walked towards the civil and military officials, princes, and ministers.
"The ministers respectfully ask Your Majesty Xià Sheng'an, and the family bows to An!"
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, pulled Liu Che all the way forward, walked out of the high temple, and the soldiers and civilians outside the temple. As soon as I saw the Son of Heaven wearing a dragon robe leading a young man wearing a crown and a silk robe to appear, the whole city. In an instant, it fell into revelry and festivities.
At this point, the country has an heir, the society has a new worshipper, and the ministers, the military and the people have a new object of allegiance.
The crown prince of the Han Dynasty has been established.
The news. Immediately it was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake. There were countless ripples, and the entire known civilized world looked sideways at it.
Leave that to the moment.
That night, Liu Che moved into the palace.
The Taigong Palace is a small palace complex of the Han Dynasty that is independent of the Weiyang Palace and the Changle Palace.
There are only three halls in total.
They are the C Palace, the Jiaguan, and the Painting Hall.
The Bingdian is the place where the prince rests and pops, and generally non-cronies are not allowed to enter and exit.
Jiaguan is the place where the prince cultivates and the ministers discuss.
The painting hall is the place where the prince studied and the prince's heirs lived.
For the uterus, Liu Che is too familiar!
In a past life. Liu Rong lives here, and he often comes here. Discuss various countermeasures with Liu Rong
When Liu Che returned to this palace, all kinds of memories that had long been worn out and disappeared came back to his heart.
Liu Che slowly walked between the attics of the palace.
Now this palace has been without an owner for two years, and although many palace attics are very clean, they are lifeless.
"Your Royal Highness, the one hundred and fifty eunuchs and one hundred maids that Your Majesty has assigned to you will be ......there tomorrow," Wang Dao cautiously said beside Liu De: "In addition, Zongzheng also said that His Royal Highness can also recruit fifty eunuchs and one hundred maids, and these expenses can be reimbursed by the Shaofu.......
Liu Che waved his hand and said, "You don't need so many people to serve you!" ”
"Thirty of the eunuchs and maids who have been transferred will each be returned to the inner court!" Liu Che looked at Wang Dao: "You remember six words, diligence and thrift, benevolence, filial piety, and generosity!" ”
"In the lonely palace, half of those incense burners have also been removed, and in addition, go and find Zhang Tang, Ju Meng, Ji Di and other courtiers!" Liu Che remembers very well that in his previous life, when Liu Rong was the master of the house here, the entire imperial palace burned incense burners day and night, and the fragrance lingered between the palaces and pavilions, and he spent nearly millions of dollars on spices every month, which was really a loser! Liu Che naturally will not repeat the mistakes of the past, not to mention, Liu Che has always felt that burning so many incense burners is useless, and he can only look like a sissy, and he will be attacked! At most, when there are many mosquitoes in summer, just light a few incense burners in the bedroom to repel mosquitoes, and at other times, you can not burn, it is best not to burn!
"No!" Wang Dao nodded yes, and when he was about to carry out Liu Che's order, he heard Liu Che say again: "In addition, go to the mansion of the chief princess of the pavilion, and say that Gu will go to greet the eldest princess tomorrow!" "The matter on the side of the pavilion pottery still has to be decided immediately, this is a key issue and a top priority, the longer the time drags on, the more the pavilion Tao will have opinions in his heart.
"No!"
After Wang Dao left, several eunuchs who followed Liu Che immediately became active, and everyone was vying to show Xiàn in front of Liu Che, this time Liu Che was not indifferent to the affection and deliberate closeness of these eunuchs as before, but led them to the front of the painting hall.
"Have you been with Gu for a few days......" Liu Che asked softly.
The eunuch behind him can actually be said to be an old slave.
There are even two of them who grew up with the original Liu De.
It's just that after Liu Che crossed over in his previous life, because he was convicted, these people were scattered and escaped, so Liu Che didn't dare to use them before, just because he was afraid that they would leak secrets.
But now it's different, as the crown prince, Liu Che has nothing to leak for them to leak.
So, it's time to start using these people.
But it's just a use, and when new eunuchs are trained, if these people can't keep up, Liu Che will not hesitate to abandon them.
For domestic slaves, Liu Che very much agreed with the use of Emperor Jiajing and Emperor Wanli in the Ming Dynasty.
That is, the loyalty of the house slave is the first, the ability is the second, and the character is the third.
Unlike most people in today's world who dislike eunuchs, as a traverser, Liu Che knows how to use eunuchs well, and also knows how to limit the expansion of eunuchs' power, and even elevate himself.
"No matter how powerful the eunuch is, no matter how great the power is, he will never be able to threaten the imperial power......" Liu Che thought to himself: "Moreover, the loyalty of the eunuch is beyond doubt!" Anyone will betray me, but the eunuchs will not! Anyone can deceive me, but the eunuch won't! ”
"I'm going to start building a prototype of the Western Han Dynasty's celebrant ......"
"Wait for the future to ascend ......the throne," Liu Che showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.
The fundamental intention of the Han family to build the crown prince, divide the officials in the palace, and let the prince make his own tinkering, the fundamental intention is to let the prince experiment on the throne to try a variety of different policies, so that after more than ten years and twenty years of tempering, the prince will be able to have quite strong skills and political ability immediately when he ascends the throne.
Therefore, from today onwards, on one acre and three points of land in the three halls and ten pavilions of the Imperial Palace, Liu Che can play whatever he wants, as long as he is not brain-dead enough to play bad things or brutal behaviors that are angry with people and gods, basically, no one will interfere, and the courtiers, emperors, and queen mothers will not interfere with what happens in the Imperial Palace.
This is the reason why Liu Che dared to try the celebrant model in this palace.
Of course, given today's climate, this kind of thing can only be done quietly and not hyped up.
These eunuchs were overjoyed, thinking that their loyalty and diligence over the years had finally been seen by the prince, and they all knelt down excitedly and said, "Back to Your Highness, the slaves and maids have served Your Highness for X years!" ”
Liu Che smiled and waved his hand: "Don't rush to come one by one......"
"Slave Wang Rui......"
"Slaves and maids become ......"
"Slave Zhang Xian......"
"Slave Xu Chong ......"
"Meet Your Highness......"
Liu Che looked at these eunuchs kneeling at his feet, held his chin and thought for a while: "Wait a while, when Wang Dao comes back, you will go to Wang Dao to listen to the errand, and Gu will tell Wang Dao and teach you how to do things...... Starting tomorrow, there will be a lot of newcomers in this palace, so you will follow the royal road and restrain those newcomers to the lonely management, understand? ”
Everything must be done step by step, let the king road screen first, and pick out the literate and capable first.
And this time the integration of the Tai Womb is a perfect opportunity.
First eliminate the waste and dregs, and then, depending on the situation, cultivate a few slaves with vision and ability, so, in fact, Liu Che didn't remember the names of these eunuchs at all.
Although the "Nuo ......" was a little disappointed, the eunuchs were still happy to kowtow, after all, compared to the previous ignorance, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, can be willing to talk to them, this is progress!
Half an hour later, Wang Dao rushed to the Taigong with Zhang Tang, Ji Huang, Ju Meng, and their respective subordinates, as well as Yi Zong and Ning Cheng, who had hurried over.
"The ministers meet His Royal Highness the Prince...... "Zhang Tang and the others, as soon as they saw Liu Che, immediately bowed respectfully to the ground and bowed their heads to worship.
For them, Liu Che, the second son of the emperor in the past, has become the current crown prince Liu Che, this is a great victory, which shows that they have made the right bet, as long as they hold on until Liu Che ascends the throne, then the welfare of the ministers of the hidden palace is enough for them to eat for a lifetime! (To be continued......)
