Royal Gold Magistrate

An auspicious day has been selected, and the day of the enthronement ceremony is coming soon.

The new emperor's ascension to the throne is celebrated with the whole world, naturally there are countless red tapes.

Facing such a big event, even the prince who is jumpy has no choice but to endure it and study patiently.

Baiguan also has its own set of etiquette of obedience.

Obviously, Fang Zhengyi knew that he was a supporting role, so he didn't bother to learn these common etiquettes.

Someone from the Ministry of Rites came and slipped away after finding an excuse.

Anyway, since the day he entered the court, he didn't have much dealings with the Ministry of Rites. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, he can just put on a show by himself.

As long as he doesn't open his mouth, no one will notice him.

There are still many matters in Taoyuan County that he needs to personally participate in. Although he is not good at scientific research, taking out the memory fragments in his mind will undoubtedly greatly promote the progress of research.

When Emperor Jing got the news, he just calmly said that he didn't care.

The son-in-law is so virtuous and hopeless.

Besides, he is considered to have abdicated safely now, so the enthronement ceremony doesn't need to be too serious, everything should be festive and show the harmony between father and son.

Even he himself saved a lot of ceremonies. Originally, the ministers had to persuade him three times, but he declined twice before giving way.

The original intention was to show a mainstream virtue, but now they are all removed.

Maybe it's because Emperor Jing himself has not recovered from his injury and doesn't want to engage in these vulgar rituals. It's more likely that it's because of the influence of the industrial age that subtle changes have taken place in people's hearts...even the Ministry of Rites didn't stop him too much.

......

Finally came the day of enthronement.

Li Yuanzhao dressed up and led the officials and officials to worship the heaven and earth, the ancestral temple, and the country and the country.

When the team arrived at Fengtian Temple, there was loud drumming around.

At the end of the drumbeat, all the officials adjusted their appearance and court clothes.

The Ertong drum sounded, and the hundred officials were listed outside the Meridian Gate, standing in order of rank.

Directly until the three-way drum sounded, and then ended, all the officials entered one by one.

Li Yuanzhao continued to walk according to the etiquette, the sound of bells and chimes around him was loud, and music was everywhere...

In Fengtian Hall, Emperor Jing had already sat upright and waited here.

Guo Tianyang beside him seemed a little more sluggish than usual.

Although I know that this day has come, but when this day really comes, I still find it difficult to accept it.

One is to accompany His Majesty all his life, and feel sorry for His Majesty.

The second is because of myself.

A generation of Dongchang factory masters, powerful and powerful, the number one figure that no one dares to mess with except Fang Zheng.

All the power in his hands comes from His Majesty, and today, with His Majesty's abdication, the curtain will end...

The only thing worthy of his happiness is that there should be no worries in his old age.

Finally, Li Yuanzhao entered the palace with all the officials.

Emperor Jing cast his eyes on him immediately, while paying attention to the reactions of all the officials from the corner of his eye.

Many veterans burst into tears...

Emperor Jing couldn't help feeling secretly in his heart.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites stepped forward to report, Emperor Jing replied one by one according to the routine, and then took a look at Guo Tianyang.

Guo Tianyang swallowed his saliva, and said understandingly: "His Royal Highness accepts the order!"

"My son accepts the order." Li Yuanzhao knelt down and bowed.

Guo Tianyang read out the imperial decree prepared by Gao Yi in a calm tone.

Li Yuanzhao took a deep breath, and said with firm eyes: "My son leads the decree to thank you!"

After the voice fell, it was time for the king to hand over.

After Guo Tianyang sang, Li Yuanzhao got up and waited slowly step by step for the Golden Luan Hall.

Emperor Jing's eyes flickered, and he also got up...

At this moment of witnessing history, the hearts of His Highness and ministers have already risen to their throats.

Only Fang Zhengyi was filled with emotion, and looked up to see Li Yuanzhao sitting on the dragon chair.

This moment was a dream for him, and scenes from the past flashed in his mind.

He rose from the humble beginnings, entered the center of power, and swept the situation in the torrent of history...

Now, he personally witnessed the end of a generation of great emperors, and at the same time, he will witness the new emperor to open up a magnificent history...

Li Yuanzhao sat on the dragon chair, looking around, feeling quite uncomfortable, and a little nervous in his heart.

He wanted to say something, but Emperor Jing was sitting next to him, and he always felt like he was going to be beaten.

A while ago in the hall, he and Lao Fang were beaten up hard.

After looking around, he finally locked his eyes on Fang Zhengyi.

Seeing that Fangzheng is in his heart, he will not be at a loss.

Officials from the Ministry of Rituals stepped forward to speak, and after another clichéd etiquette, Guo Tianyang began to read out the canonization list.

When the new emperor ascends the throne, it is natural that a group of officials should be canonized, and then the whole world will be pardoned. This was planned by the Ministry of Rites long ago.

Officials are elected by the court, and Fang Zhengyi has no surprises in electing a group of powerful trusted candidates.

After the canonization was finished, all the officials saluted and shouted long live three times.

The tension in Li Yuanzhao's heart also eased a lot, and he smiled and said: "Zhu Qing is in peace."

After speaking, he was as guilty as a thief, and took a look at Emperor Jing.

Emperor Jing stared back fiercely.

Thieves!Now they are all emperors, what a guilty conscience!

The officials were still looking at Li Yuanzhao expectantly.

Li Yuanzhao coughed softly: "Cough, I... want to be alone for a while, you all go down."

"........"

Silence, deathly silence!

Never expected that the first sentence of the new emperor's ascension to the throne came here?

All the officials of the Ministry of Rites were ashamed, looking at Li Yuanzhao hopelessly.

its not right!The script is not arranged like this!

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and looked at Emperor Jing beside him in tacit understanding.

Emperor Jing nodded slightly.

The officials breathed a sigh of relief, and after saluting collectively, it faded away like a tide.

Fang Zhengyi was also full of black lines.

The prince did it by the emperor!How come you look like a puppet!

Let's go, I guess I want to talk to Emperor Jing alone.

Fangzheng lifted his foot and was about to leave when Li Yuanzhao spoke again.

"That old...Fang Qing stays here, I have something to tell you alone."

After finishing speaking, he glanced sideways at Emperor Jing again: "Father, my son has something important to discuss with him."

Emperor Jing sighed softly: "Okay, we must be solemn in the future, and we must not act like this."

After he finished speaking, he gave Fang Zhengyi a meaningful look, and walked away slowly with Guo Tianyang's support.

In the main hall, there were only two figures left.

Li Yuanzhao arched his buttocks back and leaned back on the dragon chair, wondering what he was thinking about.

Fang Zheng asked, "Your Majesty, how do you feel?"

Li Yuanzhao said blankly: "I don't know, I think the minds of those people under the steps are blank."

"Father has been emperor for so many years, but now it's my turn, I really feel bad..."

Fang Zhengyi continued: "Then...Your Majesty might as well think about it. If you have something in mind, you can discuss it with the officials."

Li Yuanzhao thought about it: "Of course, I have a lot of things I want to do. I am thinking about whether those people released by the amnesty world will cause trouble, and whether they will be arrested next month."

"........"

"Also, my business has reaped such huge profits overseas, and with the rise of industry, the proportion of agricultural tax has become smaller and smaller, less than [-]%. Is it possible to completely exempt the agricultural tax of the people of the world?"

"It's entirely possible, but there's a lot of resistance in it, and it's not something that can be achieved in the short term. I suggest that you wait for His Majesty to get more information before discussing it. A rash action may cause shocks in the court. Your Majesty has very good thoughts in his heart, but looking at the In ancient and modern times, no dynasty has dared to do such an earth-shattering event."

"Earth-shattering? Oh, then it seems that I have to do it!"

Fangzheng nodded in agreement.

This is what Shengjun should consider, but according to the current social productivity, I am afraid that this goal is far from being achieved.

The pattern of interests is also extremely difficult to break, and the amount of money from the agricultural tax is not too much when it is aggregated to the whole country.

But the localities will never give up.

Li Yuanzhao rubbed his chin and murmured: "That's right, I have to change the Yuan and redesignate the year before I do big things..."

Fangzheng raised his eyebrows: "Do you have any thoughts about your majesty's reign?"

"The reign title set by the father is Jinghe, and now it seems that the father has fulfilled his original wish. I hope that the great scene, the country, and the mountains will last forever, with the same glory as the sun and the moon... The sun and the moon are bright, why not call it Daming, how do you feel?"

"Reign...Da Ming?" Fang Zheng blinked, his thoughts wandering.

Ming dynasty...

"Good, Daming! I think it's very good."

"You also think it's good, then there shouldn't be any controversy." Li Yuanzhao clapped his hands and smiled, and said, "Actually, there is one more thing that I have been thinking about for many years, ever since you entered the palace."

Fangzheng felt a little strange, and asked, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."

"Can you do that again?"

"Are you still coming?" Fangzheng understood with all his heart, with a dull expression.

"Yes, that's it, hurry up!"

"Your Majesty's divine prose and martial arts, literary and martial virtues, and the common people... Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!"
