Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 758 Lingqian ascends the throne [-]

This time, the national funeral was held in a very low-key manner, but there were no lack of necessary regulations.

All of this was handled by Mr. Feng, and because of this national mourning, Mr. Feng stood at the top of the court and became the unrivaled prime minister.

He had always followed the principles of a gentleman, but after gathering power, he showed his strong side. The new emperor had not yet ascended the throne, but he ruled with iron and blood, and no one in the court dared to obey.

On a bright sunny day, the palace is soaring to the south, and the sound of mourning can be heard endlessly.

Emperor Jiayou's official post was located in the Zichen Palace. Princes, princesses and concubines below, eldest son and eldest daughter, and married women above all lined up in plain clothes and knelt down to worship and weep.

Ministers and wives of rank four or above will bow in front of the Chengming Hall.

The Empress Dowager's office was located in the Qingning Palace. After everyone knelt down to the Emperor, they went to kneel down to the Empress Dowager again, which made everyone in mourning feel dizzy from exhaustion.

After exhausting many people, he finally came to the throne in front of the new emperor.

What is Lingqian's accession to the throne? It is one of the three steps for a new emperor to ascend the throne. During the period when the new emperor mourns and observes mourning for the previous emperor, the ministers read out the imperial edict and complete the basic transfer of power.

Mr. Feng held the edict promulgated in the name of the late emperor and read it loudly in front of Emperor Jiayou's soul. Changsun Ce, dressed in plain clothes, knelt down in front of the soul and took the edict from Mr. Feng's hand, officially becoming the quasi-emperor of the Qin Dynasty.

This result is both expected and reasonable.

Not many people were surprised.

The first emperor gave birth to five sons, and the first prince who was born after the deposed emperor was completely deposed because of his deposition and the "rebellion" of Duke Chengen and the deposed queen.

Without the support of his mother's family, the third prince is weak and unable to make a big impact.

The other two princes are young and cannot sit firmly on this throne.

Naturally, the second prince, whose mother's family was powerful and had no immoral behavior, succeeded to the throne as a matter of course.

"On the first day of the ninth lunar month in the year Yihai, I will ascend the throne in front of my spirit, inherit the throne, and be the shepherd of hunting on behalf of Heaven."

"The people are bound to the foundation, and the foundation is solid and the country is peaceful. Whatever the people want, God will follow it. I will keep in mind the wise sayings of my ancestors. From now on, I will correct myself and cultivate myself, work hard to govern, govern with virtue, and change things with change."

"Whatever the people want, whether it is the national economy and the people's livelihood, I will be personally involved in everything and benefit the people. I will not dare to look aside for the benefit of the people, and I will try my best to be pious. Whenever the people suffer, I will set an example, be virtuous and careful in punishing, and only punish. shirt."

"I sincerely pray that all people will be safe and prosperous, that the rivers will be clear and the sea will be smooth. I sincerely hope that the people in the court will speak out and remonstrate with me and examine my faults."

After reading the manuscript prepared by Mr. Feng without missing a word, Changsun Ce raised the imperial edict with both hands and kowtowed three times to Emperor Jiayou's official official.

The imperial edict was heavy, and he was not happy to hold it.

At least, not as happy as I imagined.

He thought that the throne brought power, surrender, and life and death.

But when he was forced by Mr. Feng to criticize the book during this period, he gradually realized that the Lord of Ten Thousand Generations, while holding the power of the world, also had to shoulder responsibilities that were unimaginable to outsiders.

The country is the country, the people are the common people.

They are so heavy, and there is only one emperor.

How could he shoulder this responsibility?

When he went south, he had lost his ambition to fight for power, but why did he still take on this important task in the end?Changsun Ce stood up and looked at the princes and ministers lying at his feet. He was a little at a loss because all he saw was the dark heads and raised buttocks. He could not judge what they were thinking through their expressions.

People will always panic about things they cannot control.

He panicked.

Seeing the concubine’s proud and distorted smile, and the bodies of the Xiao family members trembling with excitement.

He panicked again.

Why do they seem to be the ones who take the throne?
That's all, Changsun Ce forced himself to be a fool.

At this time, he was a little unbearable. How could he survive until the enthronement ceremony, the moment when he changed his origins and established a new one, and officially became the emperor?
When the third prince learned that everything he had sought was in vain, he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell unconscious. He really looked like a sick man swaying one step at a time.

As for Changsun Yi, he was detained in the sky prison and was not as disappointed as he imagined. After losing everything, he seemed to have a profound enlightenment, looked down upon the power of life and death, and calmly waited for the final judgment.

Leaning against the cold wall, with the damp, smelly bedding underneath him, made him extremely uncomfortable.

While behind bars, he would occasionally think of his wife, who was married from a foreign country and was still unconscious, and felt a trace of guilt in his heart, but in the end, there was only a little bit of pity.

Sometimes he would also think of Huang Yingying, the woman who now had no idea whether she was alive or dead. He had once pampered and protected her in the palm of his hand. Although he had no love at all and was full of resentment, he would think about what is happening to this woman now?
However, what he thought about most at this time was sister Qinghuan.

Because Sister Qinghuan is like a ray of clear moonlight that shone into my heart when I was young and never left her. But after all, there was no fate. When I think of her now, I only have a long sigh.

The eldest grandson Ce Ling came to the throne, and Great Qin finally had an acting monarch. Under Feng Xiang's iron-blooded methods, this turmoil was like an insignificant earthquake. It came with great fanfare, went away in a hurry, and subsided in the blink of an eye.

The situation between North Korea and China is gradually getting back on track, and a new round of intrigues and power struggles has begun.

But the news of Emperor Long's control of Bintian has not yet reached Guiyan City. This ancient city, stained with the blood of border guards and enemy troops, is filled with joy and laughter, and everyone is wandering in the joy of victory.

The report of victory in Tang Dynasty has been rushed to the capital for [-] miles. The hundreds of thousands of captured Northern Qi soldiers are being forced to do hard work by the Qin army.

Yang Qian and Ah Liu secretly conspired to maximize the value of the captives.

What to do with the mountains of enemy corpses in the city gate tower?
"Prisoners, you go find a geomantic treasure land, dig a hole and bury them! I think that grassland is very good. It is more than enough to bury 20 or [-] people. When the time comes, if Beiqi wants to send troops south again, it will have to step on its ancestors first. Come over here.”

What to do with the city walls that were damaged by the war?
"Prisoner, go over there and dig some caves and burn bricks to repair the city wall."

What if a lot of firewood is needed to cremate the bones of fallen soldiers?
"Prisoners, you are strong. It would be a waste if you don't use your strength to chop wood. Go and carry back all the dead branches from that mountain."

……

Therefore, before there was a letter from the capital explaining how to deal with the prisoners, hundreds of thousands of prisoners were split into several teams and forced to work diligently to clean up the aftermath in Guiyan City.

Become a coolie who does all the dirty work and only has one meal a day.

Wu Ti luckily survived the battle, but was seriously injured and was placed under house arrest in a small courtyard of the Hou Mansion.

In the words of Chang Sun Tao, Wu Ti's nature is not bad either. It was because he lacked so much maternal love and affection since he was a child that he grew into a crooked tree and did such crazy things as wanting to exterminate the men of Northern Qi.

Therefore, for people like Wu Ti who are not yet completely broken-hearted, you have to use "love" to influence him.

How to influence it?
