Chapter 113 The Enthronement Ceremony

The rising sun shines on the city of Bianjing, and the layers of residential buildings are coated with a layer of golden yellow, which further sets off the magnificence of the city.

A straight street on the central axis of Bianjing leads directly from the South Gate to Xuande Gate. The widest section of the Royal Road is more than 200 meters wide. Such a spacious road is really a big deal in this era.It can also be seen from this that the grandeur in the planning of Bianjing City fully shows the style of a grand empire.

At this moment, all the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty are at the northern end of the imperial road, entering through the Xuande Gate of the imperial palace, and standing in order of rank outside the square in front of the Daqing Hall, standing in awe.

A moment later, amidst the melodious music of the palace band, a royal guard of honor walked around the Daqing Palace Square.The ceremonial cavalry with golden helmets and armors came in a mighty manner. The soldiers wore swords and rode horses, all of them energetic and majestic.

The walking soldiers behind held up one hundred and eight colorful flags, embroidered with golden dragons, colorful phoenixes, unicorns, flying luan, peacocks, cranes and other fairy birds and auspicious animals.Jinghui fluttered against the morning wind, hunting and dancing.

After the Jinghui passed, 72 court ladies came slowly with precious fans in their hands. After the team of precious fans, they followed twelve Huazhu, and the tassels hanging around the Huazhu fluttered with the morning wind.

Afterwards, 160 guards, holding Jinwu in their hands, walked by in neat steps.Dozens of eunuchs followed behind, holding golden millets, copper horns, red stirrups, golden gongs and other accessories and musical instruments, all walking slowly without looking sideways.

Behind is Li Hao's Chengyu, carried by 36 eunuchs, coming slowly.

Behind Chengyu, Xiaomei and Xiaolan held a pair of precious fans crossed, Xiaozhu held the incense box, Xiaoju held Yu Ruyi, followed by dozens of court ladies.

In the end, 180 Ouchi guards were adjourned, each with a heavy back and a full of energy.

Cheng Yu slowly came to stop outside the Daqing Hall, Li Hao got off Long Yu and walked to the red carpet laid out in the middle.

The eunuch in charge of ceremonies said loudly: "The emperor is here!"

All civil and military officials knelt down in unison, "See the emperor. Long live my emperor!"

Li Hao glanced at the civil and military officials kneeling on the square, and then looked up at the Daqing Palace in front of him.

In front of the Daqing Hall are thick wooden pillars engraved with Panlong, and green glazed tiles on the top of the Polygonum.The whole hall is majestic and majestic, showing the royal atmosphere, and it is resplendent under the morning light at this moment.

Li Hao walked across the carpet with a leisurely pace.

His thoughts were a little wandering, from an ordinary little person in the main world to where he is today.

Go to the end of the carpet and climb up step by step from the steps paved with Hanbai stone.Go to the dragon seat of the horned dragon and panchi in the Daqing Palace, and go to the peak of power of the most powerful empire in this time and space.

However, Li Hao's heart was surprisingly peaceful, without any inexplicable excitement, no swelling desire, and more of a kind of indifference in his heart.

Power is a kind of power, and the force is even more a kind of power. Both are forces that can transcend the constraints of the world and can do whatever they want.

"When you master the power, can you keep your original heart unchanged?"

"Never lose your awe. Never lose your awe of the vast universe and the vast force."

"Follow your heart without breaking the rules. In the world of the Force, there is as much power as there is a wide heart. You must let your heart fly, dare to love, hate, do and act, but you must not lose all constraints. Do everything Keep the bottom line."

The bits and pieces of the conversation with the intelligent system in normal times flashed in my mind.On the road of cultivating with force, it is equally important to sharpen the mind and will.

A real powerhouse.Not only must you have great power, but you must also have a mind that can control this power.If you can't control this power, you will inevitably go to self-destruction.

Didn't he lose his sense of awe when Song Huizong made such a big fuss about Huashigang?

Li Hao withdrew his thoughts, walked into the Daqing Hall, stepped up to the throne in the middle and sat down.

Xiaomei and Xiaolan held precious fans crossed behind the dragon chair, while Xiaozhu and Xiaoju stood on both sides holding incense boxes and Yu Ruyi.These four maidservants followed behind, and there were more than ten other court ladies holding guards of honor.

The eunuch in charge of ceremonies shouted loudly, "Xuanwen, Wu and all officials enter the palace!"

A group of ministers filed in and stood in order of rank in the Daqing Hall. Following the eunuch's singing, the ministers once again paid homage to Shanhu Long live.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Li Hao condescendingly commanded all officials, both civil and military, to have a panoramic view.Sitting on this throne, there is naturally an aura of dominating the world and being the only one who respects me.

The eunuch in charge of ceremonies began to read out the imperial edict, announcing the enthronement of the new emperor, followed by a whole set of etiquette and procedures for enthronement.

After all this was over, Li Hao looked around the hall and said: "Song Taizu and the previous emperor handed over the country to me, so I can't help but feel conscientious.

"The Chinese nation, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors all the way to the present, has created countless brilliance. Now that the country is in my hands, I have the responsibility to continue this brilliance. I can only seek governance diligently, in order to create a prosperous world, so that the country will be in good weather, and the country will be safe and peaceful; Foreign envoys from all over the world bowed down, and all nations came to court.

"Your family may not know me well. In fact, it is not difficult for me to serve you. You don't have to guess my intentions. I can tell your family clearly. But I will support anything that is beneficial to all people in the world. They will all praise. But if there is something that harms the people, my constitution and laws will not tolerate it."

"There are too many things in the world. Even if I work hard day and night, I can't do everything myself. So I decided to expand the power of the Prime Minister and form a Prime Minister's Cabinet. The government affairs of the court will be discussed by the Prime Minister's Cabinet in advance, and then reported to me for approval."

"The ministers of the cabinet temporarily select four people, and we will increase or decrease according to the situation in the future. The first minister of the cabinet is Yuan Shen Zhizheng, Xiao Zhongzhi Xiao Qing's family."

Xiao Zhongzhi came out and said: "Minister Xiao Zhong would like to thank the emperor for his kindness!"

Li Hao continued: "The second chancellor is the original right servant, Cai Jing and Cai Qing's family."

There was a slight "buzz" in the Daqing Palace. This appointment was somewhat unexpected for the officials.It was normal for Xiao Zhongzhi to serve as Minister of the Cabinet, and the officials felt that this was originally a member of Li Hao's direct lineage.But Cai Jing also joined the Xiangge, which is a little strange. Could it be that Li Hao also plans to reuse Zhao Ji's confidant minister?

Cai Jing himself didn't think it was strange, he came out and said: "Cai Jing, thank you Lord Long En."

Li Hao announced again: "The third Prime Minister is the former Taichang Shaoqing, Li Gang and Li Qing's family."

If it is said that Cai Jing became the Minister of the Prime Minister, although it is a bit unexpected, it can still be explained. After all, Cai Jing was originally the prime minister, and his disciples and old officials are all over the world. It is a deep-rooted faction in the court.

But why was Li Gang also promoted to prime minister?

The person in the hall who felt the most astonishment was Li Gang himself. He also vaguely heard from his colleagues that Li Hao controlled the palace, but except for the day when Si Xia Yue rebelled in front of the hall, Zhao Ji, who usually went to court, was no different.

Since seeing the appearance of Emperor Taizu yesterday, Zhao Ji wanted to abdicate the throne, he was dumbfounded at this scene, thought all this was incredible, and marveled at Li Hao's superb means.But he faintly felt that this might be a good thing for the world.

He was stunned for a long time, until an official next to him tugged at his official uniform, then he came back to his senses and hurried out to thank him.

"My minister, Li Gang, thanked the emperor for his kindness."

"The fourth Prime Minister is the Yuan Zhengbei Commander, Liu Zhongting and Liu Qing's family."

"My minister Liu Zhongting thanked the emperor for his kindness."

The fourth person is finally Li Hao's direct descendant again.

"The rest of the Qing family will maintain their original official positions, and the basic salary will be increased by [-]% on the original basis."

All the officials in the Daqing Palace breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they can keep their original official positions.As for raising [-]% of the salary, it is nothing. Officials who live on the basic salary, even honest officials, also have various subsidies and some income.

However, Li Hao's promotion of Fenglu is a kind of goodwill message, which to a certain extent indicates that there will be no major replacement and purge of officials for the time being.

"After retiring from the court, the four ministers went to the Zichen Hall to discuss matters." Li Hao said, winking at the eunuch Si Li.

The eunuch in charge of ceremonies shouted at the throat: "Retire!"

Li Hao got off the dragon chair and left the Daqing Hall through the side door.While discussing, the ministers withdrew from the Daqing Hall.

Li Hao left the Daqing Palace, instead of sitting on Longyu, he walked away.He asked Xiaomei and Xiaolan: "You guys also watched the excitement, and you are tired from holding your fans, so go back and have a rest first."

"I'm not tired, but I'm a little bored. I can't understand the article the eunuch read."

"Actually, I don't understand either." Li Hao really couldn't understand that kind of esoteric edict written in classical Chinese.Anyway, it is an article with gorgeous words but empty content.

When Li Hao came to Zichen Hall, Xiao Zhongzhi, Liu Zhongting, Cai Jing, and Li Gang were already waiting.

When choosing the candidate for the Xiangge, Li Hao also went through a lot of consideration.Of course Xiao Zhongzhi wanted to go in, but among his cronies, only Liu Zhongting could try it out.

For people like Jiang Wulang, Jiang Liulang, and Sun Hong, it’s okay to let them lead troops to fight, but let them take care of the government?It's really not that stuff.

As for Cai Jing, at this time, he still has a huge influence whether in the center of the court or in the local area. If he is willing to cooperate, the implementation of the executive order will be much smoother.

Letting him enter the Prime Minister's Pavilion is just a test. If he refuses to cooperate, then he will be of no use to Li Hao. Li Hao will appoint a new person to take his place.

Cai Jing is a treacherous official, and it is written in the biography of traitorous officials in Song history, but Li Hao doesn't care what he was like under Song Huizong, as long as he has usable value in his own hands, then why not use him?

Cai Jing has spent his whole life in court, so he should be able to understand his intentions.If he has a tendency to be passive and sabotage, drive him out of the ministerial cabinet immediately, and if there is something more serious, take him down.

As for Li Gang, he was a famous official who resisted the gold in history, and later served as prime minister.In the situation that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were not familiar with each other, Li Hao naturally wanted to use someone who was more "familiar".

Historically, Li Gang was dismissed by Song Weizong at this time, and he was transferred back to Bianjing City to serve as Taichang Shaoqing later.But history has long been in chaos under the butterfly effect, and Jin Bing has gone south early, so it is not surprising that he became Taichang Shaoqing early.
