Chapter 2279: Passing down the jade seal of the country and granting great titles to the ministers

Chapter 2275: Passing down the jade seal of the country and granting great titles to the ministers

Ying Hao, who was sitting on the new dragon-made chair, saw the people kneeling below and let out fanatical shouts like a mountain roar and a tsunami. He couldn't help but straighten his shoulders and back, and his posture was like a bell, with a high-sounding tone.

At this time, Ying Hao looked calm on the surface, but he was also extremely excited inside and could not calm down no matter what.

Fifteen years have passed since he came to this world. After countless intrigues and intrigues, he finally became the emperor as he wished.

Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and tens of millions of people, all belong to him, the Shenwu Emperor.

Gao Huan, Shenwu is such a good reign name, but now you are no longer qualified to have it. Shenwu will definitely become the greatest reign title.

I, Ying Hao, not only want to unify the world, but also create unprecedented feats, let the fame of the Qin Empire and Chinese civilization spread throughout the world, and let the East always trample the West under its feet.

Thinking of this, Ying Hao's heart became even more excited. He immediately suppressed the blood in his heart and looked down at the square. He could see the grand scene in the square.

Ying Hao neither looked around nor focused on one place, nor could he move his eyes. Instead, his eyes were scattered and dumbfounded, which gave him a mysterious majesty.

 “Sit down.”

Ying Hao faintly uttered two words.

 The ceremony officer immediately shouted: "Ping Shen."

bump…

As soon as the salute was fired, the people who knelt down shouted again: "Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor!" After shouting, they all stood up together.

 “Play music!”

　　　　　…

 The lively rhythmic ritual music sounded, followed by a large number of soldiers holding horizontal knives, forming a good formation under the altar, and dancing their knives on the spot to the music.

"ha!"

 “Hoo!”

This ritual music is the music of the King of Qin breaking the formation, and the sword dance is the dance of the King of Qin breaking the formation. Just from the name, you can tell that it is a song to praise Ying Hao for pacifying the Yellow Turban and wiping out the princes. The military music of Dingding's northern border is extremely popular all over the world, and was composed by the princess Cai Yan and the emperor Cai Yong.

The civil and military ministers of Qin State all sang and danced to the rhythm of the music to celebrate Ying Hao's accession to the throne.

Representatives from various counties and industries have been trained in advance, and most of them can sing and dance, so they all sang and danced along with the rhythm.

As for the envoys from various countries, they can either sing or dance. Only the envoys from small forces such as Tubo, Western Regions and Nanyang can't do it at all. They can only stand in situ in embarrassment.

 Fortunately, it didn't take long for the ritual music and dance to end, and the next stage began, which was to seal the ministers.

 “Your Majesty, please issue an edict with your seal!”

Several ceremony officials shouted together, and as soon as the shouting ended, several edicts were drafted and sent to Ying Hao respectfully by the officials.

The edicts were all written in advance, but no seal was used. The last step was to put the seal under the seal and issue the edict.

 “Fu Baolang!” shouted the ceremony officer.

"exist!"

An official came forward respectfully holding the jade seal, and gently put down the wooden box in which the jade seal was placed. At the same time, he knelt down and opened the box. It was the jade seal passed down from the country.

As soon as the jade seal of Chuan Guo came out, the scene exploded again.

Cao Cao's eyes were full of suspicion: "Isn't the jade seal of the country lost a long time ago? It can't be a fake."

After the death of Emperor Ling, Chang'an fell into civil strife, and the jade seal was lost and never appeared again. Unexpectedly, it reappeared at Ying Hao's enthronement ceremony.

"it is true."

Cai Yong's voice sounded on the side, and then Xun Shuang said: "I and others have experienced it, and it is indeed true."

"But why is the jade seal in the hands of Emperor Qin?" Zhao Kuangyin frowned.

 “God knows.” Sun Jian said with a wry smile.

Qiao Xuan stroked his beard and smiled and said: "The Holy One is blessed by God and has the destiny of God. There were auspicious celestial phenomena just now, but now the gods have sent back the jade seal. Isn't it natural?"

Cao Cao, Sun Jian and the other three looked at each other and did not continue to question, because it was meaningless.

Ying Hao proclaimed himself emperor this time. Not only did he receive auspiciousness from heaven, but he also took out the jade seal. Now the name of orthodoxy is even more well-deserved.

At this thought, the hearts of Cao Cao and others became more solemn, while the civil and military officials of the Qin State were even more on stimulants, especially the civil servants such as Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang.

They thought at first that if the lord proclaimed himself emperor and did not pass on the imperial seal, the name would be unfair and unjust. However, they did not expect that the jade seal was already in the hands of the lord, and they did not take it out until the moment he ascended the throne.

 Master, it’s really hard for you to hide this from us. Everyone secretly thought.

It is said that the jade seal of the country is a sacred object. When dynasties change and people ascend the throne and become emperor, how can they not take charge of the jade seal?

Ying Hao picked up the jade seal with a solemn expression, and the moment he touched it with his hand, the system prompts also sounded in his mind.

  【Ding dong, the host holds the jade seal and ascends the throne, and will be rewarded with extra national luck +50 years. Currently, he has a total of 200 years of extra national luck. 】

Ying Hao was overjoyed when he saw this. He had no idea that ascending the throne with a jade seal in his hand would have such benefits. After all, it was an additional 50 years of national fortune. No wonder the world regarded the jade seal as a symbol of orthodoxy.

Ying Hao thought this was the end, but he didn't expect that this was just the beginning.

  【Ding dong, the host has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and possesses the Holy Path Xuanyuan, which will reward him with an additional 50 years of national luck. Currently, he has a total of 250 years of extra national luck. 】

  【Ding dong, the host has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and possesses Rendao Zhanlu, which rewards extra national luck + 40 years, and currently has a total of 290 years of extra national luck. 】

  【Ding dong, the host has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and possesses Overbearing Tai'a, which rewards extra national luck +20 years, and currently has a total of 310 years of extra national luck. (Note: Only the top five of the top ten famous swords can increase the extra national fortune, and the following five swords have no such effect.)]

“It turns out that not only the jade seals, but the top five swords in the top ten can also increase the extra national fortune, and they become less and less from top to bottom.

 If you calculate it this way, Chixiao will get 30 years of extra national luck, while Longyuan will get 10 years. "

 As soon as he thought of this, a light flashed in Ying Hao's eyes.

Now that Chi Xiao and Long Yuan are in Tang and Shu respectively, there is no other way to get Chi Xiao except war, but Long Yuan can force Li Shimin to hand it over through diplomatic means.

Not long ago, ten great masters directly moved the palace of the Tang Dynasty to the ground, which made the entire Tang country tremble. Li Shimin was even more timid and would not dare to fight Qin for a sword.

"Shimin, I'm sorry, Long Yuan just thinks of it as a dowry for Xiuning." Ying Hao thought to himself.

At this moment, the officials unfolded the edict written in advance, and Ying Hao held the jade seal and stamped it with his own hands. After several edicts were stamped with the imperial seal, Ying placed the edict on the table and unfolded it, and officials from the Ministry of Rites read it out in public.

　　"The emperor was entrusted to heaven, and the edict said: ...I entrusted my father Ying Wen to be the supreme emperor, and my mother Jia to be the empress dowager..."

 The first edict is to confer Ying Wen and Jia Yu, but this is not the point, the focus is on the second edict.

"The emperor was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict said: ...The Liu family is my virtuous and virtuous family, and the Ren family has contributed to the Qin Dynasty and established the country. Both daughters are worthy of being mothers to the world. Therefore, the Liu family is made the queen of the West Palace, and the Ren family is the east palace." Queens, with equal status, are all awarded the Queen’s Royal Seal.”

As soon as the edict was issued, everyone was shocked and began to discuss in low voices. After all, no one expected that Ying Hao would seal two queens.

 Two queens? This is the first time since ancient times.

However, what is said in the edict is correct. One of Liu Ren's two daughters, one of whom is a wife, and the other of whom is in the country, is enough to be the mother of the world. It is indeed difficult to choose between them.

As for the parties involved, Liu Mu and Ren Hongchang were stunned when they learned that they had both been sealed.

Liu Mu was actually prepared to lose the election. After all, before the coronation ceremony, his father-in-law Ying Wen talked to her alone and persuaded her to voluntarily give up the position of queen.

The reason is also very simple. Most of the officials of the Qin Dynasty did not want Liu Mu to become the queen, because the Han Dynasty was replaced by the Qin Dynasty under their promotion. How could they watch the princess of the previous dynasty become the queen and let someone with Han ancestry become the queen? What about the prince's succession?

Of course, Liu Mu knew this clearly, and she was naturally unwilling to give up her position. However, after the imperialist coup failed, the Han officials in Da Qin were severely weakened, and there was too little help that could be given to her. .

Although she could forcefully take the position of queen, this would only attract civil and military opposition from the Manchu Dynasty. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons and in order to ensure the stability of the newly born Qin Dynasty, Liu Mu decided to voluntarily give up the position of queen.

Liu Mu had already told her husband, and Ying Hao also agreed with a face of embarrassment. Unexpectedly, he would now have two queens.

Liu Mu felt that Ying Hao definitely didn't want her to be wronged, so he took the risk to seal the two queens. Thinking of this, she was already moved to tears.

As for Ren Hongchang, Ying Hao had approached her before and mentioned the matter of the twin queens to her.

Ying Hao said bluntly that Liu Mu and his wife had been married for many years, and Liu Mu had always been silently supporting him and had never done anything to feel sorry for him. He really couldn't bear to hurt Liu Mu, so he wanted to make both of them queens. Liu Mu was the Queen of the East Palace, and she was the Queen of the West Palace.

The status of the East Palace is obviously higher than that of the West Palace, and her husband asked Liu Mu to be the Queen of the East Palace. Does it mean that Liu Mu is more important than himself in his heart?

At that time, Ren Hongchang actually felt a little uncomfortable. After all, she didn't even want to be an emperor, so how could she care about a queen? All she really cares about is Ying Hao.

 But when he learned that Liu Mu, who had been with him for a longer period of time, was no lower than himself in her husband's heart, she naturally felt sad.

Of course, in addition to being sad, Ren Hongchang felt that he had seen the right person. Ying Hao was still the kind and righteous Ying Hao.

In order not to embarrass her husband, Ren Hongchang agreed. She had also made plans to become the Queen of the West Palace and be overpowered by Liu Mu. Unexpectedly, when the time came for the canonization, Liu Mu became the Queen of the West Palace, and she became the Queen of the West Palace. Queen of the East Palace.

Ren Hongchang is absolutely convinced. It was for her that Ying Hao broke the ancestral system and established two queens, and now he has made her the East Palace, with a higher status than Liu Mu, which is enough to prove her status in Ying Hao's heart.

 At this thought, Ren Hongchang also had tears in his eyes and shed tears of emotion.

 After seeing the reactions of the two women, Ying Hao was secretly relieved. After all, the issue of being crowned queen had given him a headache for a long time, but now both women were finally satisfied.

 …"Craft Ying Liangyu as the Princess of Chaoyang..."

 “…make Ying Xuewu the Princess of Huayang…”

“…the eldest son Ying Ying was made King of Jinyang, and his mother Mu Guiying was made a noble concubine…”

“…make the second son Ying Qi (mother Li Xiuning) the King of Yiyang…”

 “…make the third son Ying Lin (mother Li Xiuning) the King of Xingyang…”

“…the fourth son Ying Han was granted the title of King of Xiangyang, and his mother Zhao Min was made the Jade Concubine…”

“…the fifth son Ying Yan was made King of Nanyang, and his mother Cai Yan was made Concubine Shu…”

“…the eldest daughter Ying Hongye (mother Liu Mu) was granted the title of Princess Taiping…”

“...the second daughter Ying Chengxin was granted the title of Princess Leping, and her mother Xiahou Qingyi was granted the title of Concubine Wei..."

“…the third daughter, Ying Huang Yu, was named Princess Anping, and her mother, Long Shi, was concubine Zhen…”

“…the fourth daughter, Ying Luqi, was named Princess Jiaping, and her mother, Yang Yuhuan, was named Imperial Concubine…”

“…the fifth daughter Ying Qingying (mother Mu Guiying) was granted the title of Princess Zhaoping…”

 At the Tang State mission, Li Xiuning burst into tears of joy when he saw that his two sons had been crowned kings.

Although her two sons were named county kings, unlike the other three who were named county kings, the titles at this time were only initial titles and did not represent the final titles. The titles would definitely be changed when the princes came of age. It is a one-word king.

After all, she hasn't married Ying Hao yet. It's already good for her son to be named the county king. As a person, you must be content.

 After the royal family is enthroned, the next step is the heroes, first of all the four dukes.

 “…make Qin Jian the Duke of Yanmen County…”

“…Female Qin Zheng as Duke of Hongnong County, and posthumously title his father Qin Liang as King of Hongnong and Situ…”

 In terms of merit, Qin Jian and Qin Zheng cannot be divided between the public, but after all, they are the direct blood relatives of Ying Wen and Ying Hao. As relatives of the emperor, it is natural for them to be granted the title of duke.

“…Feng Baiqi was appointed Duke of Wu’an County, General, and Commander-in-Chief of Jizhou…”

“…Feng Jia Xu is the Duke of Wuwei County and the Grand Tutor…”

 Bai Qi and Jia Xu represent the head of military generals and the head of civil servants respectively.

As the leader of the generals, Bai Qi has the greatest merit among the generals, so it is natural that he should be granted the title of Duke.

Jia Xu has not yet reached the status of the head of civil servants, or it can be said that the Qin State does not have a true head of civil servants.

 This is also Qin Hao's intention. He does not want a situation where someone is the leader among civil and military officials.

It's just that Bai Qi is too defiant. Even if the lord Ying Hao intends to suppress and support others to compete with him, he still dominates the army. He is the being with the greatest credit, and naturally he is the leader of the generals.

Jia Xu is not as good as Bai Qi. There are many civil servants who can match or even surpass him, such as Wang Meng, Liu Bowen, Han Fei, and Xun Yu.

 It's just that they can't reach the level of being the leader of civil servants.

Now someone needs to stand up and stand alongside Bai Qi, the leader of the generals, but no civil servant has this qualification.

Although Jia Xu is not qualified in terms of merit, he still has an identity as the uncle of Emperor Ying Hao, which makes him qualified for this title.

“…make Li Jing the Marquis of Wei, the General of the Conquest of the West, and the Commander-in-Chief of Yongzhou…”

“…Female Yue Fei as the Marquis of E, General of the Northern Conquest, and Commander-in-Chief of Youzhou…”

“…Front Su Lie as Marquis of Xing, General of the Eastern Conquest, and Commander-in-Chief of Qingzhou…”

“…make Xue Li a Marquis of Yi, General of the Conquest of the South, and Commander-in-Chief of Jingzhou…”
