Chapter 737: The Coronation of the New King, Thunder Means
In the blink of an eye, the day of the new king's coronation came to the throne.
The news was released the day before, and this shocking news can be described as shocking and full of storms, no less than the day when Wang Sancai was arrested by the public.
The point is, wasn't Zhou Ning okay a few days ago? Why did you abdicate in a blink of an eye and make way for Xian?
This is a common question on everyone's mind, but it is not so important to the people who becomes the king, but what is important is what benefit the new king can bring to them.
To tell the truth, the people of Zhou State actually have a bad impression of Zhou Ning, just the fact that the enemy country launched a war and he forcibly recruited soldiers is enough to offset all his previous achievements, especially the 30,000 army was completely wiped out by Wang Sancai of the enemy country, and no one survived, during that time, if it was not for the major families to suppress it, I am afraid that there would be a riot.
Behind the 30,000 army is equivalent to 30,000 families, and being completely annihilated by the enemy is Zhou Ning's tactical failure, and the people don't care why they didn't expect to kill a Wang Sancai halfway, they only care about their own families.
Because of this, the people who lost their relatives hated Zhou Ning so much, but in this powerful world, they could only dare to be angry and dare not speak.
Later, fortunately, Zhou Ning withdrew his troops in time, which really relieved many panicked families...... Although they did not know the real reason for Zhou Ning's withdrawal.
Therefore, in the hearts of many people, even if Wang Sancai is beheaded, it is best for Zhou Ning to step down, and the news of the new king's accession to the throne at this time is even more in their hands!
The morning of this day was just dawn. A large number of onlookers gathered in front of the palace, and the commander of the Imperial Guards constantly complained that their Imperial Guards had already begun to work in the early hours of the morning, and by now, he had even drawn almost all of his patrols from all parts of the palace to run outside to maintain order and prevent the people from rioting.
Under the leadership of the prime minister, members of the National Assembly and representatives of major families protected Zhou Ran and slowly walked towards the stage, Wang Sancai naturally followed, he looked at the commander of the Imperial Forest Army and chattered to Zhou Ran about how hard he worked, for fear that Zhou Ran would turn against him at this time.
To his surprise, along the way, Zhou Ran listened carefully. Although he did not answer a word to the commander of the Imperial Guards. But this endurance has already made Wang Sancai look at him with admiration.
All the members of the Congress, including the representatives of the major families, could only be regarded as deaf, and soon, at sunrise, the group reached the coronation platform.
The coronation stage is as tall as a three-story building. Below, there was a crowd of onlookers who were pressed by the black. After everyone is seated. Wang Sancai also saw that Zhou Ran was constantly taking deep breaths, suppressing the tension in his heart.
The national teacher is standing on the stage to announce the blessing of the gods and the reasons for the abdication of the previous king...... In Wang Sancai's opinion, this process was quite boring.
Fortunately, this process is not too long compared to listening to "a few simple words from the leader" before Wang Sancai crossed. Later, the national teacher proved the authenticity of the procedures handed over by the parliament about Zhou Ning's abdication and his designated heir was Zhou Ran, according to tradition, under the premise that the new king was crowned and the old king did not die, this is the time when the old king handed over the scepter symbolizing power and the crown symbolizing status to the new king.
But the problem is that Zhou Ning has already disappeared without a fucking trace.
Therefore, under the attention of thousands of people, Prime Minister Huang Tian and the new king Zhou Ran stood up and walked to the front of the stage together.
Prime Minister Huang Tian told all the people that the old king was seriously ill and weak, and he could no longer support him to come here, and the national teacher nodded to prove it, in case someone among the people would deliberately stir up trouble, and also proved his legitimacy.
When Wang San saw this, he only felt that his eyelids were fighting and yawning, and what he hated most was to look at these hypocritical things.
The coronation of the new king was originally handled by the Congress, as long as Zhou Ning did not jump out at this time to show that Zhou Ran's succession was not legitimate, then everything would be logical, and the people would ...... Who would dare to stir up trouble?
Fortunately, this process is not too long, the prime minister handed over the scepter to Zhou Ran on behalf of the old king, and after putting the crown on Zhou Ran's head, this coronation ceremony is considered to have come to an end.
Next, Zhou Ran, as the new king, also expressed his enthusiasm to the people, promised a bunch of meaningless promises, and finally, it was the turn of the people to ask questions.
It was another long and tedious process, in which the envoys sorted out and selected some matters of significance and concern to the people, and the new king voted on the spot.
The most important thing is, of course, the current war, which is something that all the people are concerned about, Wang Sancai and Huang Tian naturally thought of this matter for a long time, according to Huang Tian's strategy, the battle has to be fought, of course, there are more acting ingredients, and at the same time, after Wang Sancai and Huang Tian discussed, he also told Zhou Ran a more compromise answer.
"War is something that no one wants to see, after I ascend the throne, I will start to resolve the contradictions between the two countries, and try not to use violence to resolve the hatred between the two countries, but everyone knows that this is a long process, so please be patient, I promise, I will slow down and avoid the fight between the two countries to the greatest extent, because I also hope that the countries are peaceful, and the country and the people are safe!"
In his words, he tried his best to avoid the next actions of the kingdom, and only showed that he had a peace-loving attitude, which sounded very comforting, but in fact, what would happen, only Wang Sancai and others knew.
Finally, when we arrived, it was noon, and the whole coronation ceremony was over.
With the gifts and congratulatory messages sent by the resident envoys of various countries, the coronation ceremony finally came to a successful conclusion.
The veritable king Zhou Ran led everyone back to the palace, and the commander of the Imperial Forest Army also wiped a handful of sweat, letting the deputy control the transfer of the Royal Forest Army that could be mobilized, and at the same time, he couldn't help but complain: "Those guys finally didn't make any trouble." ”
It was an unintentional sentence, but Zhou Ran suddenly stopped.
When he stopped, everyone had to stop, Wang Sancai was very curious about what Zhou Ran wanted to do, and suddenly saw him ask the commander of the Imperial Forest Army: "You seem to be very impatient." ”
The commander of the Royal Forest Army was stunned: "Uh, Your Majesty, no, I'm just ......"
"What are you?" Zhou Ran suddenly interrupted, aggressive: "From the beginning, I can see how impatient you are, in the morning, you complained to me that you don't have enough manpower, and how hard you work, don't these words show that you are very tired and annoyed?" ”
The face of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army changed greatly, and everyone's faces also changed greatly, even Wang Sancai and Huang Tian's faces showed surprise.
"As the commander of the Imperial Guards, shouldn't these things be your business? Since you're tired and miserable, then don't do it! Zhou Ran's words were beyond everyone's expectations.
Actually said that the recall was dismissed?
No one had seen any signs before!
The commander of the Imperial Forest Army turned pale, and immediately knelt on the ground and couldn't say a word.
The members of the Congress, including the representatives of the major families, also looked at each other, and everyone had a shock on their faces, as if they were saying...... The new king is too thunderous, isn't it?
Wang Sancai recovered from his surprise, but he was really a little impressed with Zhou Ran, it seems that he had digested and absorbed all the words he had warned him last time, before he dismissed the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, he didn't show any attitude at all, and now that the coronation is complete, he has become a veritable king, and suddenly found a legitimate reason to do this, not only to eliminate a person he hates, but also to kill a chicken to show the monkey a sense of shock.
Wang Sancai began to appreciate Zhou Ran a little.
And Zhou Ran dropped this sentence, immediately turned around and left, and said as he walked: "Beiyang Shui will take over the position of commander of the Royal Forest Army, and I will go to the study to give an appointment order now." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped again, and couldn't help but look at each other again.
Wang Sancai appeared as Zhou Ran's "nanny", and Zhou Ran's choice of Wang Sancai was not unexpected by everyone, and even, from the moment of the dismissal of the commander of the Royal Forest Army, most people also guessed this possibility.
The problem is that everyone thinks that this "once a son of heaven and a courtier" came too quickly, right?
On the day he ascended the throne, Zhou Ran was in a hurry to replace him with his own people. (To be continued......)
