The wide avenue is crowded with people, in order to admire the majesty of the emperor!
Although living in Luoyang City, seeing the emperor is about the same difficulty as later generations.
Moreover,
The Son of Heaven has won battles and gained a great reputation. He is a great hero in everyone's mind.
Which teenager does not worship?Which girl does not admire!
Liu Bian was also very happy to see the people in the city so lively and adoring him so much.
He asked Cao Cao to arrange the army, and he wanted to bring all the officials and the common people together to have a lively Lantern Festival.
however,
Before he could speak, Wang Yun and a group of courtiers came out.
"Your Majesty has returned in triumph. This is God's Blessed Man. It coincides with the Shangyuan Festival today. Your Majesty should sacrifice to the Taiyi God according to the traditional customs, and pray that the new year will be good for me, and there will be no disasters or difficulties!"
Because they knew that Liu Bian would come on this day, everyone had already arranged the sacrificial site, and Liu Bian only needed to be there in person.
Because this is the rule set by the ancestors, and it is also a wish!
Therefore, everyone felt that it was a coincidence that they should go to participate in the sacrificial activities.
However, when everyone was in high spirits, giving Wang Yun a thumbs up and praising him for his ability to do things,
No one noticed that the smile on the emperor's face slowly disappeared.
"Wang Qing, the victory is due to the bloodshed and sacrifice of the soldiers. What's the matter with Guan Taiyi? What did he do for the big man? Why do I worship him every year?"
Want him to kneel?
Even if it is a god, it is absolutely impossible!
Although Liu Bian knows that worshiping gods is one of the means of ruling the people.
This is why all the emperors call themselves the Son of Heaven.
But Liu Bian doesn't want to be emperor!
If God really exists, then he wants to be the God of Heaven!
It is difficult for a modern person to succumb to theocracy.
Moreover, Wang Yun's use of the word "begging" made him very uncomfortable.
Everything today was achieved by his own hard work. Has the god helped him once?
"As a Shangshu, you even want to give credit to the gods for the merits that the soldiers exchanged with their lives. How foolish you are, you are chilling the hearts of all the soldiers in the world!"
"You guys have been fined for three years, as an example to others!"
Liu Bian was heartbroken.
And everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, all dumbfounded.
However, after the generals were stunned for a moment, they respected His Majesty in awe!
Yes,
Every victory is bought with their blood and lives!
However, Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Zhongjing, who had received the "inheritance", did not take seriously the once high gods in their hearts.
Your Majesty is a god, why do you have to worship other gods?
Wang Yun wants to cry but has no tears.
Counting with fingers, in this life, I am afraid that there is no hope of getting a salary.
He himself can't figure out how many years his majesty has fined him.
Therefore,
He doesn't care about the salary anymore, the Wang family is now starting to transform, and has cooperated with Shen Wansan to establish their own firm in Taiyuan, so they won't be starved to death.
What frustrates him the most is that he rarely wants to curry favor with His Majesty once, but the result is still the same as before, without any change.
"Your Majesty, are the sacrificial activities still going on?"
The official in charge of offering sacrifices asked cautiously.
"Cancel."
Liu Bian waved his hand, "From now on, the Lantern Festival ritual activities will be cancelled!"
"what!"
As soon as this remark came out, all the officials were in an uproar!
------
PS: Spoiler alert, there will be an action to exterminate religion~
The Lantern Festival is the introduction.
By the way: What about the little gift everyone prepared for Lao Zhang, why hasn't Lao Zhang received it yet?
Chapter 318 Liu Bian teaches the little lady to make Lantern Festival, prophecy and open the lantern ceremony?
"Take... cancel the sacrificial activities?"
When Liu Bian said this, everyone was a little shocked.
But when I think about it, His Majesty even dared to smash the Dragon Awakening Bell formulated by Emperor Gaozu, and why can't the activities of offering sacrifices to Taiyi inherited by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty be cancelled.
Although everyone didn't say anything, they couldn't help but want to refute Liu Bian.
What violates the ancestral precepts, is overbearing and authoritarian, and will be punished for disrespecting the gods.
【Ding! 】
[The host cancels the temple sacrificial activities for no reason, causing panic among the people. 】
[Reward an ancient rolling mill! 】
Hearing the voice next to his ear, Liu Bian raised his mouth slightly.
Sure enough, there are rewards for doing so.
In this era, it is fatuous for the emperor to disrespect the gods.
It couldn't be more suitable to use it to collect rewards.
"An ancient rolling mill?"
Liu Bian remembered that the steel rolling mill should be a very modern thing. The equipment for rolling steel needs electricity, right?
Give me a reward for the rolling mill now, but it won't work.
After reading the reward introduction, he quickly understood.
The so-called ancient method of rolling steel does not require electricity.And the equipment in the factory is all operated by manpower.
Therefore, it is naturally impossible to produce precision steel parts like the rolling mills of later generations.
But its products, for this era, are definitely advanced across the century!
And if Liu Bian wants to build a steam battleship, the previous new steelmaking and this ancient rolling mill can definitely play a big role.
Nice bonus.
"Your Majesty, the people of the whole city are now immersed in the joy of the festival. I implore Your Majesty to postpone the cancellation of the Lantern Festival by one day!"
Tang Mao was afraid that the people would be disappointed, so he risked being fined to persuade the emperor.
Cai Yong, Ma Rihuang, Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others all seconded the proposal.
If it is announced that the Lantern Festival will be cancelled, the people in the city will definitely be upset!
The image of the king that has been built up with great difficulty may collapse suddenly.
"What are you thinking about?"
Liu Bian glanced at everyone speechlessly, "When did I say that the Lantern Festival will be cancelled?"
What he said was just canceling the activity of offering sacrifices to Taiyi during the Lantern Festival.
The common people have been busy for a year, and it's hard to have fun, so of course it can't be cancelled.
Moreover,
Liu Bian just didn't want to worship a certain god, he didn't deny the god.
He does not worship, but common people can worship.
"Not only will I not prevent the people from celebrating the festival, but I also want to have fun with the people and celebrate the festival with the people!"
"My dear friends, you should have never experienced it before. Take to the streets on such a grand festival, blend into the ranks of ordinary people, and experience the fun of the festival together."
The corner of Liu Bian's mouth twitched slightly.
He is very clear,
Whenever there is a grand festival, the officials have to accompany the emperor to perform various sacrifices.
Their identities will not be integrated into the common people.
"Come on, make an exception today, let us monarchs and ministers go to the streets and celebrate the festival with the common people!"
"All the soldiers got involved and celebrated the victory in this special way. Really, a festival for ourselves!"
Instead, for the illusory gods!
This sentence reached the hearts of everyone, and everyone looked at the emperor in surprise.
Repeatedly in my heart: celebrate a festival for ourselves!
the hearts of the people,
Be touched at this moment!
"His Majesty!"
At this moment, Xu Ying, Gan Mei, Huang Wudie, Xiaotao and others who were following Liu Bian were fascinated looking at Liu Bian.
