Section 366 A New Era (2)
Liu Che wore the twelve sons of heaven on his head and wore the robe of the son of heaven, step by step, under the attention of hundreds of civil and military officials, he climbed the imperial steps of the Xuanshu Hall and walked towards the supreme dragon seat.
According to the Han system, the new monarch officially ascended the throne, usually one month after the emperor's death.
However, the enthronement is just a ceremony, a proclamation that the world has changed its master.
It is equivalent to a child's full moon wine or a week-catching ceremony.
In fact, before he ascended the throne, the new monarch had already been worshiped by hundreds of officials and regarded as the co-master.
For example, in that year, Emperor Gao Liu Bang died, and that night, Emperor Hui Liu Ying was surrounded by hundreds of officials and ascended the throne in Weiyang Palace.
Liu Che is the same at the moment.
But in his heart, he has the same strong sense of insecurity as Emperor Hui back then.
"How many people are there in this Manchu Dynasty who are really loyal to me? Obey me? Liu Che walked up the imperial steps step by step, and couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart.
He walked to the dragon seat, turned around, waved his robe, sat on the dragon seat, and looked at the civil and military officials through the twelve beads in front of him.
A eunuch sang loudly: "The new monarch is on the throne, and hundreds of officials pay homage!" β
Hundreds of civil and military officials, so under the leadership of Zhang Ou, the right Xiangguo, the general of the chariot cavalry, and the lieutenant Zhidu, they bowed three times and bowed nine times to Liu Che, the new monarch, and said in unison: "The ministers and others knock to see Your Majesty, Your Majesty Jin'an!" β
Liu Che, who was sitting on the dragon seat, raised his head, straightened his chest, and stared ahead with his eyes.
Sitting on this supreme throne in the world, Liu Che felt that his body was filled with endless power.
At this moment, he felt as if he was a god standing among the clouds.
All kinds of things in the world. All things are alive, the universe under heaven. It's all in his hands.
It's such a cool feeling!
"No wonder, so many people want to be emperors!" Liu Che said in his heart.
What is an emperor?
The official explanation is that it is commanded by heaven. Daitian Shepherd.
To put it simply, in this world, the subjects of the county, he can kill and take away from now on, and do whatever he wants.
Theoretically, no one is greater than the Emperor except God in the underworld, and there is no will or affairs except for the ethereal Heaven. Can bind the Emperor.
Even in the West, where the monarchy's power is limited by the aristocracy, there are still kings who shout 'I am the country'.
In China, the emperor is not only a symbol of the state, but also a symbol of theocracy.
He is a man and a god!
But Liu Che knew that he was as far away as a living saint like his imperial grandfather, as far away as the earth to the moon.
Even the authority of his imperial father, the first emperor, is at least half the world above him!
He's now. It's just a bare-bones commander, even a puppet or a puppet!
However, even a puppet, even a puppet.
He's also an emperor!
It's the emperor. You can't wait to get power, you want to get more power, you want to hold everything in your hands.
Therefore. He decided to test it and look at the court. How many people are truly loyal to him?
"Mouth cannon. Everyone will shout, but it is the real courtiers who take action......" With such thoughts, Liu Che cleared his throat and said loudly to the ministers: "I will always think of filial piety!" Since the first emperor ascended the throne, he has fussed Li Shu inside, Yi Di outside, swept away the rebels, took one of the thirty field taxes, except for the physical punishment, and gave grace, God descended to Baoding Jiazhi, and the merit was great! β
Liu Che looked at the courtiers without changing his face, and said word by word: "I have heard that the ancestors of the ancients have merit and virtue, so the sage has its own reason for making ceremonial music, and when you hear the song, you are virtuous, and the dancer is also meritorious!" It ordered Taichang, Shaofu, Zongzheng, Taifu and the right Xiangguo, the imperial historian, to determine the music and dance of the temple of the first emperor, to cultivate virtue in the Ming, and then, written in the bamboo silk, given to the ages, forever and forever! β
After listening to Liu Che, the new monarch, the first edict issued after sitting on the dragon couch, many officials looked at each other.
This Liu's festival is really less than one generation after another!
Many sighed in their hearts.
The meaning of the words of this new Son of Heaven is already obvious, that is, he wants to build a temple for the first emperor and go to the temple!
In the legal system, only the Son of Heaven with a temple number can enjoy the music and dance specially formulated for him!
It's just that since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the legal system has been extremely strict.
The first emperor reigned for only four years, three years and a few months to be exact! How do you give him a temple number?
Many people slander in their hearts.
If this case is opened, will in the future, will an emperor be able to have a temple number?
More people scratched their heads, but on the contrary, no one dared to object!
The new son of heaven, based on filial piety, respects the merits of the first emperor, fishes out a temple number for his father, builds a temple, whoever opposes it, who is disloyal, unfilial and unjust, can be dragged out and played until he dies.
Liu Che looked at the silent ministers.
I was a little proud in my heart.
Building a temple for his father and striving for posthumous treatment is a wonderful move that he thinks he has chosen.
In the Han Dynasty, the system of law was extremely strict.
At least, that's how it is now!
In his previous life, the emperor's father had outstanding achievements in governing the world, but he could only say a single word, and if he was a temple number, he couldn't even touch his buttocks!
In history, the little pig's Sejong temple number was given by Emperor Xuan.
However, after the proclamation of the emperor, the entire system of law collapsed.
Emperor Xuan's Zhongzong naturally has no doubts.
But the same Yuan Chengai, who is funny, actually has a temple number......
Later, after Liu Xiu came to power, he also felt ashamed of the thick skin of these ancestors, and resolutely abolished the gold that these guys pasted on themselves.
In this era when the legal system is extremely strict, Liu Che threw out such a proposition, but in fact, he was forced to learn the strategy of the later Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty.
Jiajing was proclaimed emperor as the younger brother of the prince of the domain.
After he came to power, he immediately made a big ceremony.
Is it true that Jiajing is such a filial emperor that he ignores patriarchal traditions?
Hey......
The so-called great etiquette, in Liu Che's view, is actually a matter of standing in line.
Ministers, are you loyal to me, or to something else?
The flag is clear. Take a clear stand!
This trick starts from the patriarchal ritual tradition. Fierce political struggles were avoided, and the struggles were confined to ritual and patriarchal law. The maximum Cheng dΓΉ avoids the blind tossing of the government and the opposition, and can also know safely, quickly and conveniently, who is his own person and who is the opposition!
No one can fault it yet!
It's wrong to have a son who can't mourn his father's death, right?
As for what is the festival?
Can you eat it?
"Who is my enemy, and who can be my friend?" Liu Che looked at the ministers and was quite curious.
He knew very well that there was no more swift and clear certainty of those people than the question he had raised. Those who should be struck, those who should be united again.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
At this moment, the ministers are really entangled in their hearts.
Is there a problem with the edict thrown by the new monarch?
Institutionally, it's a big problem!
But, can you stand up and accuse and put it on the table to discuss?
Who the dares!
Don't look at it, who is now guarding this Xuanshu Hall with soldiers like wolves and tigers?
It is the eagle dog of the first emperor, the former Zhonglang general Zhidu. The current lieutenant, the general of the chariot cavalry!
What's more, Xinjun's attitude is completely incorrect in the matter of filial piety.
Who dares to say that there is a problem with the son's treatment for his father?
Who dares to say that the first emperor is not worthy of the glory of a temple number?
If only there was such a fool standing up...... Countless people thought in their hearts.
As long as there is a cannon fodder rushing ahead. They will be able to follow and express their opinions.
As for what will happen to that idiot?
Who cares?
However, the officials present. They are basically giants of more than 1,000 stones, and they are all giants with real power. It's not the kind of writer who has the title of a doctor or something, and usually just shouts a few 'saints, Zhongni, Zhou Gong' and can be relieved to understand the fortune. They all climbed to this position with a knife and a gun!
As for the Marquis of Che or something......
Many ministers looked at the past, hoping that the cadres of these countries would stand up at this time to uphold the dignity of etiquette and the legal system.
But......
At this critical time, the Chehou and the Marquis seemed to be outside the gods.
For more than 20 years, Zhang Wuhou Dou Guangguo, who has been in charge of the Marquis of Che, looked old and faint, but he actually squinted his eyes and looked like he was dozing......
The guard of Changle Palace, Nanpi Hou Dou Guangguo was in good spirits.
But he just bothered to wipe his sword and accessories, as if I was just here to make soy sauce......
The queen mother's brother, Bo Rongnu, sat upright and stood up with a righteous face.
Countless people thought that the savior had appeared.
They were all rejoicing and gearing up, just waiting for the words of the man, and they immediately followed up, and they must maintain this patriarchal order!
It's a pity that the first sentence after the wait was out of the list knocked them into the abyss.
I only heard that this prince, who had been silent for 20 years, slowly crawled to the ground and bowed: "Your Majesty will always think of filial piety, and the edict will order the minister to set up music and dance to the virtue of the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and this minister is beyond the reach of foolishness!" The minister thought: the merit of the world is greater than that of Emperor Gao, and the virtue of Mo is better than Emperor Taizong Xiaowen and the first emperor! When imitating Emperor Taizong Xiaowen to build a temple for the first emperor, His Majesty should be dedicated to the temple of the ancestors from generation to generation, the princes of the county and the princes each set up a temple for the first emperor, and the princes and princes served the Son of Heaven by the envoy of the Marquis. β
Hey, hey! Wait! What about your festival?
Do you want to talk about the doctor's position?
Do you want the honor of the nobility?
Countless people felt as if hundreds of bison were running wildly!
Liu Che looked at Bo Rongnu with a smile on his face, at the critical moment, he was still reliable!
He smiled and nodded, pretending to be modest: "I am not sensitive to action, and I can't recognize the virtue of the first emperor!" However, the first emperor ordered the field tax to take one out of thirty, inherit the government of Emperor Xiaowen of Taizong, go to corporal punishment, light servitude, pacify rebellion, and expel Yidi, all of which were beyond the reach of the three emperors and five emperors! The first emperor personally walked it, Dehou Mu Tiandi, and Li Zeshi all over the world, but he was not blessed? That's why God is a treasure! β
Liu Che smiled slightly, and was not ashamed to put gold on his father at all!
The meaning of these words is simple.
It's to tell the ministers, hurry up and stand in line, right?
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for promotion and salary increase, and if you miss it, you won't have it!
Liu Che knows very well that the lower limit of bureaucracy is that there is no lower limit!
Their lower limit is always going to get lower and lower, not the other way around!
Liu Che believes that in this world, the number of old stubborn people who cling to the old yellow calendar is definitely less than those political speculators who are lively and want to speculate when they find an opportunity. (To be continued!)
