Just when the ministers felt that the majesty of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was becoming heavier and heavier,
An elderly courtier slowly walked out from the crowd, and then respectfully worshiped Li Xingyun on the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, I have this memorial." The voice was loud and full of energy.
"Precisely." Li Xingyun waved his hand.
"More than half a month has passed since the traitor Zhu Wen and his son brought their own destruction, and His Majesty Jiao Landian ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. However, the title of the country has not yet been established, and the title of the reign has not yet been determined. I, the Minister of Rites, Shui Xiangyun, boldly ask Your Majesty to grant the title of the country.
, determine the year name."
The Minister of Rites named Shui Xiangyun, although his hair is gray and his body is stooped, he looks quite old, but there is uncontrollable expectation in his words.
As one of the few veterans left over from the former Tang Dynasty, he dreamed of the day when the Tang Dynasty would be restored.
Even considering his old age and prestige, Zhu Wen and his son did not kill this veteran official.
But seeing the Tang Dynasty overthrown and the chaos gradually rising, the former Tang veteran felt extremely painful in his heart, but he was powerless to change all this.
Perhaps seeing the expectation in the eyes of the former Tang veteran, Li Xingyun slowly said the name of the country and era that he had already thought of.
"The country is named Tang, and the year is named Tianming."
Tang is necessary. As a direct bloodline of the Li and Tang royal families, he is necessary and qualified to establish Tang as the country's title.
Destiny comes from the darkness of the sky. Only when the sky darkens and the stars shine can you see your own destiny.
This life.
He is not a bad handsome man, nor is he a dark star.
He is the Lord of Destiny, the true emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
"The name of the country is Tang, the longevity is Yongchang, the year is Tianming, at the beginning of the first year, I, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, Shui Xiangyun, see my emperor, long live my emperor!"
Shui Xiangyun, the Minister of Rites, knelt down respectfully towards Li Xingyun. Although his body looked a little shaky, in the end, his forehead still hit the ground heavily.
The next second.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
All civil and military officials in the entire Tai Chi Hall knelt down to pay homage to the young Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
"You all love me, please be free." Li Xingyun said calmly.
The words fell.
All the civil and military officials of Your Highness stood up, and they all looked energetic, striving to leave a good impression in front of the new emperor, that is, in front of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Nothing more than that they were so respectful that no one dared to cause trouble.
Because the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xingyun, was the de facto emperor who had completely taken over the former Daliang's 50,000 forbidden troops, 35 divine military troops, and 100,000 dragon-armed cavalry.
A total of half a million troops, plus this young emperor, now he has picked up the sharp knife again, that is, the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty all over the world.
Just a question.
How not to be afraid?
How not to be afraid?
How to not be afraid?
Of course.
When it comes to what they fear the most, they have to be the bad guys who have overturned Daliang.
Bad people, also known as bad people in the Tang Dynasty...
How should I put it? Since the beginning of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, the bad guys established by the bad commander Yuan Tiangang have now become full-fledged and have been passed down for more than two hundred years.
The period of more than two hundred years is comparable to that of Guo Zuo in the former Tang Dynasty.
If you put this thing more directly, it is basically equivalent to the ultimate luxury version formed by the integration of Dongchang and Xichang founded by a certain iron-blooded dynasty in later generations, plus Jin Yiwei.
But whether it is the Jin Yiwei of the East and West Second Factory in later generations, or the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty who are all over the world today.
The trust of the imperial power is very important. Everything they have comes from the trust of the emperor.
If the emperor is jealous, even the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty will eventually disband with regret and watch the Tang Dynasty move toward destruction step by step.
The scary thing is.
This kind of destruction is doomed and there is almost no way to reverse it.
Because.
When the emperor began to question the sword in his hand, suspecting that it would hurt him, and therefore did not dare to pick up the sword, the sword would lose its lethality.
And the civil and military officials below, the governors of various states, the princes of feudal towns and counties, they are no longer afraid, and their hidden ambitions will spread quickly like a spark.
After all.
Who would be afraid of a tiger that has lost its teeth and claws?
.......
At this time.
Looking at the civil and military officials standing below, Li Xingyun's eyes were as calm as water, and he slowly said: "Since ancient times, Taiji Hall has been called the ancestor of the main hall, which is of great significance, but I still hope that after three months, when
The enthronement ceremony announced to the world has been completed, and I can sit in the Jinluan Hall in the Daming Palace in Chang'an, the capital."
In the past, the Tang Empire had two imperial palaces, one in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and the other in the capital, Chang'an.
The imperial palace in Luoyang, the eastern capital, is called Shangyang Palace.
Sit west and face east, facing the sunrise, which is called the east. The main entrance is the Tixiang Gate, and the main hall is the Guanfeng Hall. It is divided into two palaces, the east and west, with the valley water as the boundary. The two palaces are connected by the Hong Bridge. The lake below is rippled with reeds.
It looks like a paradise on earth.
The imperial palace in Chang'an, the capital, is called Daming Palace.
On the shore of the Wei River, it borders the northern corner of Chang'an City to the south and the northeastern corner of the palace city to the west. A mountain that symbolizes the dragon's veins runs north from Fanchuan in the southwest of Chang'an for sixty miles. When it reaches this place, it is called the "Dragon Head" because of the high terrain.
, also known as Longshouyuan.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking frankly. Now that Your Majesty has just ascended to the great throne, his foundation is not yet stable, and his movements are worse than his silence. There is really no need to start a war with the Qi Kingdom at this time."
"Your Majesty, don't listen to this old man's nonsense. The capital Chang'an has been the capital of the Tang Dynasty since ancient times. How can it be under the control of the Qi Kingdom established by Li Maozhen?"
"No, as a vassal town that has been resisting the Mobei Dynasty all year round, the Qi army is good at fighting. Seventy-eight out of ten will die without being defeated. If a war breaks out, they will inevitably be robbed."
"No, no, today is different from the past. These vassal kings have now established vassal states. Although they appear to be ministers to the Tang Dynasty, they are all very ambitious."
"So, we can only hit, whether it is Li Maozhen, Li Keyong, or other vassal kings. Only by hurting them will they be willing to bow to the Tang Dynasty."
"But if we mobilize our troops, even if we win, it will be a tragic victory. Not to mention the heavy losses to the Qi Kingdom. Wouldn't it be possible for the millions of cavalry from the Mobei Dynasty to march straight into the territory of the Tang Dynasty?"
Just when the ministers in the palace were still holding on to their opinions, Wang Yanzhang, a former famous general, stood up.
"Oh, millions of cavalry, people are shouting slogans, but you bunch of bitter scholars believe it is true. If the Mobei Dynasty has millions of cavalry, I am afraid they will dominate the world long ago. How can they stay in that bitter and cold place forever."<
/p>
Although he is a general who surrendered, his status is not low now and he is still a general.
Furthermore.
The fall of Daliang had nothing to do with him. It was purely due to internal strife between Zhu Wen and his son. After Zhu Wen's death, Zhu Yougui did not have the ability to immediately take over the army and power of the former Daliang.
But at this time.
The bad guys who had been lurking for thirty years broke out. The bad guys who occupied key positions in the army successfully took away all the troops in Daliang in one fell swoop.
But the premise of all this is that Li Xingyun agrees to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.
Otherwise.
These bad people who have been lurking for thirty years, after their lifelong efforts have lost their meaning, I am afraid that they have really become a part of the Liang Army.
At the same time, this is not something that bad guy Yuan Tiangang can solve, because he himself doesn’t even know how many bad people there are.
Although he is immortal, he can only become a fear and can never become the place of faith in the hearts of the bad people of the Tang Dynasty.
The bad man's true belief is never the bad man himself, but the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who is directly of the royal family of Li and Tang.
Only Li Xingyun, a direct descendant of the Li Tang royal family, who calls out the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty to come forward, can remind them of his past status as a bad guy.
......
Luoyang City, Shangyang Palace, Taiji Palace.
"I have no intention of going to war with the Qi Kingdom, but I am sure to win the capital Chang'an. If King Qi really doesn't know what he wants, don't blame me for taking back his surname and ordering the military governors and vassal kings to fight against it.
"Li Xingyun said coldly.
The words just fell.
An anxious voice sounded.
"No, Your Majesty. Although these vassal kings and Jiedu envoys now support their own troops, their existence also helped the Tang Dynasty successfully block Mobei, Turks, Tubo...etc.
Harassment by aliens outside the Great Wall."
The speaker.
It is still Shui Xiangyun, the Minister of Rites, an old minister who is over fifty years old.
Of the hundreds of civil and military officials present, the ones with the highest status today include Shui Xiangyun, the Minister of Rites, and by careful calculation, only Wang Yanzhang, the cavalry general affiliated with the Ministry of War.
As for the corpses of the other six ministers, the prime ministers of the dynasty, and the first-rank ministers [Taishi, Taifu, Taibao, Taiwei, Situ, and Sikong], they have already gone cold.
No matter how stupid Li Xingyun is, he will not keep these high-ranking officials in the past. No matter how you say it, these people are inseparable from Zhu Wen and his son.
One emperor and one courtier, not to mention the change of dynasties.
Only Shui Xiangyun, the Minister of Rites, who is an old and prestigious minister with little real power, has a chance to survive the official purge process.
Of course.
Shui Xiangyun, the Minister of Rites from the former Tang Dynasty, was a veteran of the Six Ministers. The reason why he was able to survive through two dynasties was probably due to his own name.
After all, which emperor would deliberately target a person named Xiangyun?
Water auspiciousness...
Water: Moisturizes all things.
Xiang: All things are auspicious.
Luck: Prosperous luck.
【Hundred Family Surnames】
The Shui clan has been passed down from generation to generation. It is one of the earliest surnames in Chinese civilization. Most people of the Shui clan respect Gonggong as the ancestor of the Shui clan. They came from the ancestors who lived by the water in ancient times and were named after the water.
