Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 577: Push again

Just when Jia Rui's father, who was shining with golden light, stepped into the palace of Emperor Taizu, Jia Rui had already returned to the palace and was worshiping his ancestors in Fengxian Hall.

As Jia Rui finally inserted the incense candle into the fire, the entire underworld changed dramatically again.

Jia Rui's father, who had already entered the main hall of the former dynasty, suddenly stretched out his hand. The emperors of the previous dynasties melted like ice cubes meeting flames.

With the disappearance of the previous emperors, this palace also began to rapidly decay and turn into black smoke, sinking into the underworld and disappearing.

And as the golden light in the sky continued to fall, a new palace appeared according to the will of Jia Rui's father.

A throne appeared out of thin air directly above the palace, radiating golden light. The golden light turned into a scene from the Yang world.

Jia Rui's father had a smile on his face and walked towards the throne step by step. However, as he approached, a bloody light suddenly emitted from the throne, which bounced him away.

It turns out that this throne is the exclusive seat of the founding emperor. As long as he sits on this throne, he can control the movement of the entire underworld and the destiny of the Yang world.

Jia Rui's father suddenly became a saint because Jia Rui ascended the throne. How could he be qualified to sit on this throne?
Therefore, after he was bounced away, he understood what was going on. He could only sigh, and a golden seat formed on the side of the throne, and then sat on it.

As he sat down, the entire underworld temporarily came under his control until Jia Rui died and came to this underworld.

As he sat down, Second Duke Ning Rong also appeared in the main hall out of thin air, and immediately behind them was the deployment of Second Duke Ning Rong.

As they took their positions, the entire underworld began to move again, and the soldiers formerly under the previous dynasty were involuntarily transformed into the deployment of the new dynasty.

As the underworld stabilizes, the fortunes of the Yang world and the underworld begin to connect, and then complement each other, forming a continuous cycle.

At this time, in the sky above Jia Rui, the luck he transformed also formed a golden dragon, swallowing up the previous luck.

Immediately afterwards, this golden dragon also moved to the center of the capital from the side and began to absorb the luck gathered from the world.

The loopholes that had appeared in the capital's legal world due to the decline of the previous dynasty began to become more severe again.

From now on, as long as the fortune continues, no one is allowed to use magic power in the capital without Jia Rui's order.

At the same time, this golden dragon of luck also spread to the entire empire, sheltering the officials under Jia Rui and preventing the law from reaching the nobles.

After Jia Rui worshiped his ancestors, he returned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, where he accepted the worship of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Next is the enthronement edict.

Regarding this edict, Jia Rui, Shen Wence, Jia Yucun and others discussed it carefully before drafting it.

As Jia Rui's personal eunuch, Lao Li naturally assumed the responsibility of reading the edict. At this time, he was holding Zhao Su on the imperial steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, reading aloud to the people below.

"The emperor was appointed by heaven, and the edict said: I have received the destiny of heaven for my small virtues, inherited the great rule, and cared for the people. In response to Tianshun, he ascended the throne as emperor, named the country "Wu", and established the Yuan Dynasty as "Shuntian".

From now on, all the people in the world, on the shores of the earth, are none of them my earth or my ministers. I should respect the Heavenly Patriarch, work diligently and love the people, promote benevolence and righteousness, and cultivate order and peace. All the four parties surrender, bring peace, and share the blessing of peace.

Officials and people at home and abroad must strictly abide by the religious orders, sincerely adapt to the law, and abide by the king's seal. If you have any suggestions, please let me know so that I can understand the pros and cons and implement virtuous governance. I should try my best to listen to it and carry out reforms so that the people of the world can enjoy eternal well-being.

This edict is hereby issued, and the envoys of Xian will hear it. "

After the edict was read out, Shen Wence held the newly made jade seal and kneeled before Jia Rui.

After Jia Rui solemnly took the jade seal, he handed it to the eunuch holding the seal next to him. At this point, the entire process was over, and Jia Rui officially became the emperor of the new Wu Empire.

That night, Jia Rui and Xue Baochai, as emperor and queen, hosted a banquet for the ministers.

By the time everything was over, it was already late at night.

At this time, Jia Rui was slumped on the bed in Qianqing Palace, relieving the fatigue caused by the day.

This day was really tiring. Jia Rui felt even more exhausted than a day of fighting on the battlefield.

Xue Baochai was sitting next to Jia Rui and massaging Jia Rui's arms with her delicate hands.

"Your Majesty, although the ceremony of the foreign court is over, you still have to go to Longshou Palace to salute the Emperor and the Queen. Otherwise, the ministers outside will also find fault."

After listening to Xue Baochai's words, Jia Rui felt a headache.

Since Jia Rui escaped from the family banquet that day, he has never seen Jia Dairu again.

Mainly because they were afraid of Jia Dairu and Mrs. Wang, these two old people were forcing themselves to make Jia Xuan the crown prince.

But today is different from the past. No matter how unwilling he is, Jia Rui can only drag his tired body and take Xue Baochai to the Dragon Head Palace.

It was already late now, and the two old men should have gone to bed. Unfortunately, today the two old men were still wearing bright yellow dragon robes and phoenix costumes, sitting in the main hall of the Dragon Head Palace.

Jia Rui entered the main hall of Longshou Palace under the guidance of the eunuch, and then kowtowed to Jia Dairu and Mrs. Wang according to the rules, and introduced to them the situation of today's enthronement ceremony.

At this time, Jia Dairu should have asked Jia Rui to stand up, say a few polite words, and let Jia Rui go back to rest first.

But this time Jia Dairu did not ask Jia Rui to stand up, but asked with a stern face: "Didn't the officials from the outer dynasty notice any omissions in this ceremony?"

Jia Rui was stunned for a moment and thought about the entire process of today's enthronement ceremony. He felt that there were no omissions?

However, Mr. Jia Dairu also read a lot of poetry and books, and he might have noticed some mistakes in them, so Jia Rui knelt there and asked humbly:
"Old Master, do you see anything wrong?"

"Hmph, after ascending the throne, I will confer princes on the throne. Why is there no such decree today?"

Jia Rui felt his head hurt when he heard this.

The old man turned the topic to the canonized prince again.

On the surface, he was talking about canonizing the kings, but in fact, he was hinting that Jia Rui wanted to canonize Jia Xuan as the prince.

Jia Rui lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "The princes are young, so it won't be too late to find a teacher for them in the Wenhua Palace in a few days. After studying for a period of time, it will not be too late to confer the title."

"Asshole, the status of the princes is unknown. How can we distinguish between superior and inferior when we meet in the future?"

Jia Rui couldn't bear hearing this. The old man almost forced himself to make Jia Xuan the prince.

So Jia Rui simply said straight to the point: "The position of prince is related to the foundation of the country and cannot be held unless he has both ability and political integrity. The eldest prince Jia Xuan is extremely stubborn. If education is not stepped up to make him correct his evil ways, I am afraid that the position of prince will not be his blessing." "
