Early the next morning, the Jingyang Bell struck ninety-nine and eighty-one times to announce the mourning, and then the knights who were mourning the country rushed from the Forbidden City toward the outside!
Thirteen provinces in the two capitals of the Yan Dynasty, including several commissary departments, and the subordinate states all had to be sent. From the moment the news was received, the mourning ceremony for the country was immediately equivalent to the local yamen crying ceremony, including
The heads of the vassal states must all wear filial piety and follow a vegetarian diet, and are prohibited from playing music and marrying for a hundred days.
Moreover, after the posthumous edict was announced, officials from other provinces, including heads of vassal states, were required to wear mourning clothes, take off their hats, and go to the outskirts of the city to cry to welcome him!
Don't underestimate these rules. If you don't do it well, you will be punished!
Of course, if the kings of the vassal country make any rudeness, they will usually forgive them with disdain. After all, in the eyes of the Yan people, the people of the vassal country are just a bunch of barbarians, and it is normal to be ignorant of etiquette. As long as they don't do anything too out of line,
Generally, they will not ask questions directly.
For example, the Li family of Korea gave their king a temple title behind the back of the Ming Dynasty. This is considered transgression.
When he first came to the temple, there were many objections from the ministers of Li's Korea, who believed that the temple name belonged to the emperor and the princes did not dare to make their own.
Moreover, at that time, these North Korean kings had already been given posthumous titles by the Ming Dynasty, which were given according to the specifications of county kings. For example, the so-called "King Sejong" in North Korea was given the posthumous title "King Zhuangxian" by the Ming Dynasty.
, belongs to the two-character county king. In this case, if you give your ancestors a temple title that can only be given by an emperor, isn't that just a trick of the Ming Dynasty?
But we didn’t know what happened at the time. Maybe the so-called King Seonjo of Joseon at that time was more filial and insisted on paying tribute to his ancestors. The ministers had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
In this way, South Korea now proudly calls itself "King Sejong the Great". In fact, they do not have this qualification. They themselves know that they are not qualified, so in written documents to the Ming Dynasty, they always refer to themselves by the title awarded by the Ming Dynasty.
.
Originally, it was okay for him to be so secretive just to satisfy his own little pride. The only thing that was bad was that Japan attacked him at that time.,,
He couldn't bear it on his own. The founder, Li Huan, ran to the Yalu River to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty. He wanted to cross the Yalu River and enter the Ming Dynasty to take refuge. However, he was afraid that the Ming Dynasty would accuse him of leaving the fiefdom without permission, so he could only send people to the Yalu River in a hurry.
Send a letter to Daming for help.
After Ming Dynasty learned about this situation, he must have sent an envoy to North Korea to see if such a thing was indeed the case!
The bad thing is that after the envoy arrived in North Korea, he looked at North Korea's official script and found that although North Korea had a script invented by the so-called "King Sejong" at that time, it did not promote it. Everyone in North Korea's top brass still wrote Chinese characters.
proud of,,,
Then when the envoy came there, he said, "Good boy, the document you gave us claimed that he was King Jangxian, but when he got to you, he became King Sejong the Great?"
Immediately he went back to join the North Korean leader and trespassed, claiming the temple name without permission!
Li He was so frightened that he didn't know what to do, so he just wanted to wait for death. Fortunately, the famous North Korean official Liu Chenglong was around at the time and gave him some advice. He asked for help first and pretended to be an ostrich to deliberately avoid the matter.
But he couldn't hide it, so Li Huo hurriedly wrote a letter, saying that Korea had followed the old system, because during the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty people did not have enough control over Goryeo. After the death of King Jin Chunqiu of Goryeo, he claimed to be Taizong, and Tang Dynasty
When the imperial court found out, they sent envoys to reprimand them, saying that they were called Taizong only after Li Shimin died. You are also called Taizong. Do you want to die?
Jin Chunqiu's son was so frightened that he withdrew his father's temple name on the spot, and repeatedly expressed that he never meant it, he just didn't know, so he was offended, and he would never dare to do it again in the future!
Just like that, the matter was over. It had been quiet for so many years. When the Li family came to North Korea, they took the temple name without permission. Li Huo also used this matter as an excuse to pretend to be stupid and say that I was looking at this.
It’s been a long time since we did this!
Then he expressed in a very humble manner that North Korea was an uncivilized country and that the North Koreans were ignorant and could not understand the etiquette of the Chinese dynasty unintentionally. That was why they made such a stupid mistake. He also said that he had absolutely no intention of overstepping. North Korea is
How could a filial son of the Ming Dynasty offend his father?
Maybe Wanli was not prepared to blame him for this, and by saying so humblely, Wanli meant that he knew you were my filial sons, and there was no need to be afraid. He just asked him to give up his temple number, and he also agreed to send troops to rescue.
!
This incident is considered to be in the past. After experiencing this incident, Seonjo Li Huo said this extremely humble sentence in the "Records of Joseon·Records of Seonjo": "Look at it as a father and son, the Ming Dynasty is
I am a father, a foreigner from Japan, and a son, but a filial son from Korea is also a thief from Japan." After that, he still stabbed his good father in the back,,,
Li Hao could not resist the temptation of taking the temple name, so he still gave himself the temple name Seonjo. Because of this incident, the whole country of North Korea, from the private sector to the officialdom, was tight-lipped about the temple name and no one was allowed to discuss it casually!
It's probably equivalent to the king of North Korea carving a plaque in his small temple and writing "Sejong Seonjo" on it. Even if the outside world knows about it, he is not allowed to mention his addiction.,,
In a situation like this, because it is really too far away, and besides, other people are like this, so if he is overstepping, he is also overstepping. Anyway, he can just not let me know about it!
The North Korean leader wearing a "dragon robe" in the Nambang costume drama that is making a lot of noise is a similar situation.
As explained before, when North Korea professed its vassalship to the Ming Dynasty, Jianwen gave them the title of prince. However, the leader of North Korea considered himself the brother of the son of the Ming Emperor, and should not be the son of the emperor. He was willing to debase himself and become the prince.
title.
Therefore, they did not wear the princely attire that Li Jing wears now, which is the tuanlong pattern robe, but the Xingmang robe that is the county prince's attire.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But the Jianwen Dynasty knew that the Ming Dynasty was in chaos, so they had no time to care about them. After their King Sejong ascended the throne, he did not notify the Ming Dynasty in advance, and gave it to the Ming Dynasty himself.
Changed back to princely attire.
The real dragon robe of the Ming Dynasty emperor was a bright yellow robe with dragon patterns in the twelve regiments. The ones worn by Nan Bang in the current costume drama are indeed the red prince robes with dragon patterns that they are supposed to wear.
If you secretly change back and wear the prince's robe again, Ming Dynasty would usually turn a blind eye and pretend not to know, but if you dare to wear the dragon robe with the bright yellow dragon pattern on the twelve regiments , that’s a completely different matter!
So if the North Korean leader dares to eat, drink and have fun in the palace without caring about it when Emperor Yongxi’s edict is delivered,,,
Then what awaits them is probably not a gentle appeasement, but the Yan army led by Li Jing himself to attack the enemy!
Not only out of respect for Dayan and Emperor Yongxi, but also out of respect for Li Jing,,, of course, mainly because he couldn't beat him...
The efficiency of the Jingyang Bell is still relatively high, so before nine o'clock, all the officials in Shenjing City, big and small, have gathered in the square outside the Qianqing Palace.
Everyone was anxiously waiting for the news, and then they saw civil and military officials, clan members, and princes walking out of the Qianqing Palace. After returning to their respective groups, they saw the Minister of Rites and the Chief Assistant Yang Jisheng walking out.
At this time, everyone already knew what was going on. In fact, the moment the Jingyang bell rang, they almost knew that Emperor Yongxi was really gone!
But everyone really couldn't believe it, because in their opinion, Emperor Yongxi was really still very young. In the eyes of Li Jing and other senior officials, they knew that Emperor Yongxi's health was already in decline, but in their eyes, Emperor Yongxi was in bad health. Emperor Xi was issuing policies almost yesterday! But it won’t work today?
So it was inevitable to be a little unbelievable at this time, so when Yang Jisheng and Li Chunfang walked up, many people still found it unbelievable!
Until Yang Jisheng held the imperial edict in both hands and said in a deep voice: "Ringing the Jingyang Bell to summon all ministers and ministers present is because, at three quarters past three o'clock in the morning yesterday, His Majesty has already, has... Long Yu Bintian!"
"His Majesty!"
After a brief shock, he reacted quickly and knelt down and started crying loudly. As soon as he knelt down, everyone in the room knelt down and started crying loudly!
It wasn't until Li Chunfang called out that everyone wiped away their tears and stood up. Then Yang Jisheng handed the imperial edict in his hand to Li Chunfang and said: "Ministers of civil and military affairs in the DPRK, all ministers and ministers are here! You can all witness it, the Emperor Daxing read it Legacy edict!"
This was regarded as a formal announcement of Emperor Daxing's edict. Saying this would allow all the civil and military officials present to prove that they had indeed heard Emperor Daxing's edict and had no doubts about it.
Of course, the purpose of this is to ask civil and military officials to supervise it. If there is any doubt about the edict, they must take the initiative to raise it,,,
But if you think about it and read it, your doubts will be of no use...
So it's just a formality, and no one here dares to have any opinions.
Li Chunfang unfolded the imperial edict and read it loudly, and everyone hurriedly knelt down to listen to the edict: "Feng! Heaven's destiny! Emperor Zhi said! Since ancient times, when emperors ruled the world, they must respect the heaven and the ancestors as their first priority,,,"
These words sounded like tears to Li Jing and others, but to more civil and military officials, these were all nonsense. They were all the emperor's closing speeches, useless nonsense, and the real highlight was also The things they care about most are all at the end!
Of course, what everyone is most concerned about is which new leader has been replaced! This is something that is closely related to everyone. The rest of this nonsense has nothing to do with most of them!
"However, the Emperor Taizongwen has entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility. Even though he is confident that he has fulfilled his duties so far, it is still a little regretful that his ambition has not been fulfilled.,,"
At this point, everyone became attentive, because after hearing this meaning, they seemed to have finished their emotions, so it should be the highlight and the most important part of the reading of the imperial edict! Who is the new emperor!
Everyone is waiting with bated breath, because Emperor Yongxi has never established a prince from the beginning to the end, so they are naturally extremely concerned about the results of raising Gu. This battle royale among the princes has eliminated two people so far.
, but there are still so many left, and the winner will be announced soon! How can they not be excited and nervous? After all, the new emperor also represents how their life will be in the future...
But at this moment, Li Chunfang got stuck. Yang Jisheng, who was standing aside and listening silently, heard that Li Chunfang had not made a sound for a long time, and turned to look at Li Chunfang with some doubts. He couldn't help but look at it like this.
Startled!
Li Chunfang was seen sweating profusely and looking at the edict in his hand with a shuddering look. At the same time, his hands could not stop shaking. He even raised his head and glanced at Yang Jisheng in shock!
Yang Jisheng was startled when he saw this, and the civil and military officials who had not heard Li Chunfang continue to read for a long time became agitated, and some even started to whisper!
When Yang Jisheng saw this, he kept looking at Li Chunfang, but Li Chunfang felt as if his throat was blocked, as if the words he saw were as heavy as a thousand words and he couldn't spit them out!
When Yang Jisheng saw this, he frowned and took over the edict. Although it was a winter morning, bursts of cold sweat broke out on Li Chunfang's head, followed by white smoke!
Yang Jisheng lowered his head and looked away. His eyes flinched at the sight. He raised his head and looked at Li Chunfang. Li Chunfang looked like he had seen a ghost and slowly shook his head.
"Mr. Yang! What are you and Mr. Li talking about? It's such an important matter to read out the imperial edict. You two are looking at each other. What are you discussing in front of all the civil and military officials?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yang Jisheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the person who made the voice, and Li Jing, who had been honestly lowering his sense of presence, also noticed that something seemed to have gone wrong.
He looked up expressionlessly.
Seeing that the person who spoke first was actually the newly promoted bachelor You Ruisong, Li Jing couldn't help but narrowed her eyes and looked at this person!
Yang Jisheng looked at the growing discussion around him and was silent for a moment. Then he took the initiative and said: "Something happened in the imperial edict. We have to go back to the palace to discuss it with the Queen Mother."
"Oh? Something as important as the imperial edict actually happened in your hands? Nothing happened before, but something happened when the prince was about to be announced?"
Yang Jisheng's eyes widened, and he saw that as You Ruisong walked out, Xu Guo, who was supposed to be transferred out of the capital, also walked out and said sarcastically!
After saying that, Li He took the initiative to kneel down to listen to the imperial edict. Seeing him kneeling down, the clan members also knelt down, and those who stood up also knelt down obediently.
Lin Ruhai took a look and looked up at Li Jing with an unchanged smile. Li Ming, who was kneeling next to Li Jing, realized that something was wrong no matter how stupid he was. He immediately pulled Li Jing's sleeve: "Second brother, are you out of trouble?"
What's the mistake?"
Li Wei sneered: "Can't you? I want to see what kind of big leakage can scare the elders into such virtue!"
Li Wei sighed helplessly: "It's really,,, so ridiculous."
Li Jing remained speechless and looked at everything on the stage with an expressionless face, silently listening to the reading,,,
