Chapter 1018 Ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor
After Yuzhu returned to the capital, within a month, ministers from the Manchu Dynasty came forward dozens of times to persuade him to come in. The young emperor issued edicts four times, naming Yuzhu as the emperor's brother and regent.
At this point, Yuzhu's status has reached its peak.
In fact, when Yuzhu led his troops to the westward expedition, the military ministers headed by Zhou Quan had already prepared everything for his ascension to the throne.
Crowns, uniforms, treasures of Chinese emperors, dragon chairs, etc. have been prepared for a long time.
To be honest, everything is ready, just waiting for Yuzhu to come back.
Yuzhu dared to leave Beijing for so long, mainly because the New Army has been firmly in his hands. Who dares to cause rebellion?
It is false to say anything else. As long as military power is in hand, careerists will not dare to act rashly.
Not to mention, all 300,000 Manchu and Mongolian troops were defeated in one blow.
The Junggar Khanate, which the old emperor had been unable to control, was all destroyed by Yuzhu in one battle.
The prestige of the New Army and Yuzhu has reached its peak.
In the West Flower Hall of the Imperial Brother's Regent's Palace, the important ministers were quarreling again.
The country's name has been decided, which is Dahua. It can call itself Huaxia or Yanxia to the outside world.
The national flag is the Yellow Dragon Flag appointed by the Yuzhu. The Chinese nation has always been called the descendant of the dragon, and the Yellow Dragon Flag can be described as appropriate.
The problem is that everyone has different opinions on the year name.
The Minister of Military Affairs, the Cabinet, and the Hanlin Academy each hold their own opinions and say whatever they want.
Yuzhu watched them quarreling calmly for several days. When everyone was tired of the quarrel, he said slowly: "Let's call the reign name Runde, right?"
Zhang Tingyu, who was born in Hanlin, racked his brains to think about it. Even if he thought about it, he never thought, which dynasty or generation had the title of Runde?
The reign name is just a chronological name. As long as it does not repeat the previous dynasty and the meaning of the word is not derogatory, it can be anything.
"I think it's very good." Zhang Tingyu immediately stood up and expressed his position.
Zhou Quan was also a well-read man. He thought carefully about it, and there was indeed no Emperor Runde in history.
"I think it is very good to be virtuous." Zhou Quan's statement undoubtedly played a catalytic role.
Ma Qi also stood up and supported Runde's reign.
Jiang Sheng only cared about the interests of Jiangnan Shilin and the issue of the reign name, so he just followed the trend.
Four military ministers expressed their opinions one after another, and the reign name was decided as: Runde.
After officially ascending the throne, Yuzhu became Emperor Runde.
In the fourth year of Xuantong, the first day of the first lunar month.
Before daybreak, all the civil and military officials entered the palace through Donghua Gate.
Everyone stood in order at the steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony according to their rank.
The soldiers of the Guards Town, armed with live ammunition, with yellow ribbons hanging diagonally on their chests and shiny military boots on their feet, stood upright along the palace wall.
The yellow ribbon, also known as the yellow mantle of the Qing Dynasty, was only qualified to be worn by the guards of Emperor Runde.
The little emperor arrived in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony early, holding the imperial seal in his hand, and stood obediently on the right side of the bottom steps of the throne.
At this time, the throne in the form of a Xumizuo had emblems on the front and left and right, and a large golden chair carved with dragons and painted on it, which was also the dragon chair, was empty.
Before Yuzhu came, the little emperor had been standing there for more than an hour.
There is no way, if you don't stay in the Zen position, the little emperor will never see the sun tomorrow.
At two o'clock in the morning, it was a very auspicious time. Suddenly, in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, bells and drums were ringing together, and the music was melodious.
The Meridian Gate, which was almost never opened at ordinary times, was slowly pushed open by the uniformed guards.
Emperor Runde sat on a dragon chariot carried by sixty-four people. Under the guidance of the honor guard of the three armies, he passed through the Meridian Gate in a mighty manner and rumbled upward along the imperial road of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The charioteers in costumes walked on the stone steps on both sides of the royal road. Emperor Runde's dragon chariot was suspended directly above the royal road.
Eighty-two years ago in the Jiashen year, Emperor Shunzhi sat on a dragon chariot and took the same route to ascend the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
The dragon chariot stopped steadily in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Niu Tai personally raised the curtain of the chariot, and Emperor Runde, wearing a royal robe, emerged from the chariot.
When Emperor Runde walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the ministers who had been waiting for a long time, led by Zhou Quan, bowed to the ground together and kowtowed: "Holy greetings!"
"Excuse me." Emperor Runde raised his right hand and excused himself with a smile.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." The ministers kowtowed again and then stood up.
Seeing Yuzhu slowly walking towards him, the little emperor, who was wearing a dragon robe without a crown, panicked. His legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
In the crowd of ministers, someone couldn't help but laugh out loud, "You coward, you really don't look like a descendant of Aisin Jueluo."
The little emperor felt great hatred in his heart, but if he dared to be disrespectful at this time, he would definitely die.
There is no other way. Who dares not to bow his head when people are under the roof?
If you can't bear it for a moment, your life will be at risk.
The situation is over, we can’t bear it anymore, we must endure it again!
Failure to bear humiliation and humiliation is a dead end.
The little emperor hasn't lived enough yet!
Emperor Runde didn't bother the little emperor who was lying limply on the ground. He walked directly in front of him and reached out to take the imperial seal.
When Emperor Runde ascended the Sumeru Seat and sat on a large golden chair carved with dragons and embroidery, all the ministers in the palace bowed down together. Under the guidance of the Chief of Rites, they knelt three times, kowtowed and kowtowed six times.
"The emperor who was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, issued an edict: I am the king of China, and my fortune has ended since the Qing Dynasty. I established slaves in Liaodong, and entered China as the master of the world. I have passed it down to my descendants for eighty and two years, and this destiny has also ended. Heroes from all over the world have come to an end.
Dispute. I am a Han people in eastern Liaoning. With the blessing of God and the spirit of my ancestors, I take advantage of the autumn of the deer competition to bring heroes and virtuous people to my left and right... Today, the ministers of civil and military affairs and all the common people in hundreds of departments have jointly advised the advance, respecting me as the emperor and taking charge of Guizhou.
Li. In response to public opinion, he proposed to sacrifice heaven and earth at the two altars of heaven and earth. That is, the emperor is located in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and he will have the title of Dahua in the world. This year is the first year of Runde. After the fourth generation test, his concubine is the emperor and queen.
Establish Taishe and Taiji in the capital. Announce it to the world, and the envoys of Xian will hear about it..." Zhou Quan held the edict in his hand, stood on the left side of the Xumizuo, and issued the edict loudly.
When the little emperor under Xumi heard that the Qing Dynasty had ended and the slaves were established, he couldn't help but feel sad, and he couldn't help but want to cry.
The country passed down from our ancestors was defeated by him.
However, the building has collapsed, what can I say?
In the blink of an eye, the originally aloof bannermen turned into slaves. They were really like phoenixes without their feathers, far inferior to chickens!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The word "Jiannu" is the tone set by Yuzhu for the Manchu people.
Although history is written by the victors, the old Tong family has a dark history after all, and almost everyone knows it.
Therefore, Emperor Runde, as the Taizu, deliberately included the word "Jiannu" in the edict of his accession to the throne, which was equivalent to stepping into the dust of the Qing Dynasty.
Regardless of whether the dark history of the old Tong family can be completely washed away, at least the attitude has been made clear!
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
After the ministers paid their congratulations, the princes and ministers of the Eight Banners, under the guidance of the Chief of Rites, exited the palace through Xihua Gate.
This retreat means that the once particularly hated privileges of the Eight Banners and the hardcore crops are all a thing of the past.
After the enthronement ceremony, Emperor Runde hurried to the Shenwu Gate to see his aunt off the palace.
The former Empress Dowager Cikang, now just her aunt, Tong looked up at the blue sky and white clouds outside the palace, and couldn't help laughing.
Emperor Runde understood his aunt's feelings very well. Alas, the widow who had been in the palace for most of her life finally escaped from death!
Back then, when the old emperor was still alive, the Tong family had always been unfavored.
The truth about Tong's childlessness is that the old emperor almost didn't recruit her to serve as his bed partner.
Tong entered the palace and was named a noble concubine because she was a member of the Tong family. However, the old emperor did not touch her for the same reason.
After laughing enough, Tong suddenly joked: "Zhu'er, what should I do if my aunt is bullied?"
Emperor Runde was well prepared, and he immediately took out a token from his sleeve and held it in front of his aunt.
"Auntie, with this card, no one will dare to be rude to you as long as it is within the territory of our Chinese Empire. In addition, with this card, you can withdraw money at will from the Universe bank account numbers across the country."
My aunt, you have done countless meritorious deeds for Emperor Runde in the palace over the years.
Everyone has a heart of gratitude, let alone Emperor Runde who is particularly loyal?
Mrs. Tong knew what kind of person her nephew was, and if she didn't accept this card, she would inevitably be in a lot of trouble when she traveled around.
So Tong accepted the token, boarded the sedan, and left.
However, Emperor Runde stopped a middle-aged man in the team and warned him carefully: "Have a good time staying with your aunt. Don't make your aunt sad."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, ordinary people have not married, they are just waiting for today, how can there be any reason to treat the woman you love badly?" Wu Yanggu, the former deputy commander of Manchuria with a white flag, said with a smile on his face.
After the establishment of the Chinese Empire, the official positions of the Eight Banners of the former Qing Dynasty were all abolished.
Therefore, Wu Yanggu’s claim to be a grassroots man is absolutely correct.
Originally, Emperor Runde did not believe that there was such a thing as love. However, Wu Yanggu, who had been waiting for decades, allowed him to see the light of love!
After seeing off his aunt, Emperor Runde had just walked to the door of Qianqing Palace when he heard another quarrel inside.
"How can a Manchu woman be the queen of our dynasty?"
"Yes, the dynasty of the country is the dynasty of the Han people. Is there any reason to install Manchus as successors?"
"In the whole world, is it the land of the king? On the shore of the land, is it the ministers of the king? The Manchus are also the ministers of our dynasty, why can't they be the queen?"
Emperor Runde felt a sudden pain in his head and simply refused to go in. He turned around and left the palace, returning to the original imperial palace of Beizi.
After Yuzhu proclaimed himself emperor, Li Si'er was obviously going to be made the empress dowager, and his father Tong Qingtai was also going to be made the supreme emperor.
Tong Qingtai is a very sensible person and does not need Yuzhu to say anything. Anyway, he just wants to enjoy his old age with great respect.
Li Si'er is different.
Over the years, how many dignitaries has she received?
After ascending to the throne of the Empress Dowager, how could one not have a desire for revenge?
It's nothing more than petty revenge. If it really causes big trouble, it will be a shame to the whole family.
As expected, as soon as Emperor Runde entered the main courtyard, he heard Li Si'er's arrogant shouting.
"Haha, whatever they owe me, they must pay back."
"Yes, yes, the Empress Dowager, a gentleman's revenge is never too late in twenty years!"
A large group of flatterers took the opportunity to please Li Si'er.
