The Rebirth of the Bamboo Horse Emperor
Chapter 37
In the 18th year of Hong'an, the emperor died, and the third prince Jiang Mu succeeded to the throne, changing his reign name to Fengxi.
Issue a will, pass on the jade seal, report to the Taimiao, and amnesty the world.
Cui Jian, the leader of the Imperial Forest Army, colluded with the rebels and rebelled, and was exiled in the North. The entire Imperial Forest Army was fined for one year.
Although Jiang Qing is dead, the crime of colluding with Yan's rebellious party to murder the late emperor and intending to rebel is serious and cannot be lightly forgiven.
Jiang Mu had a kind heart, so he just demoted the people in Jiang Qing's mansion to ordinary people, and they were not allowed to be officials for generations.
The so-called rewards and punishments, the Golden Bell Army and the Holy Army's meritorious service in protecting the lord should naturally be rewarded.However, the imperial decree just promulgated by His Majesty the Emperor caused an uproar among the courtiers.
It is beyond reproach to confer the rank of Liu Yi as a general and to promote Lin Luo, the deputy general of the Holy Army, as the commander-in-chief.But the brothers of the Shen family are also people who have made great contributions to the dragon, but the Shen family has been deposed from the position of protector of the sky, what is the meaning of this?Where is the whereabouts of Gu Huaixi, the son of General Zhenxi, the commander in chief of the Holy Army?
There were small discussions in the hall one after another, and Jiang Mu asked at the right time, "Do you have any objections?"
On the first day of the new emperor's enthronement, the ministers hadn't figured out his temper, so they pushed and shoved a lot. In the end, Mr. Xiao was successfully elected as the representative by everyone.
After all, he is also a grandson, right?
Mr. Xiao thought about it and said, "Returning to the emperor, the ministers are so stupid, I don't know why they want to deprive the Shen family of their title."
Shen Yan and Shen Bing stood beside Jiang Mu, one on the left and the other on the right. After today's imperial decree was issued, the two of them would be free again.
"Presumably all the lords also know what Hou Tianhou relied on to inherit the title." Jiang Mu said unhurriedly, "You should have heard about Shen Borong and his son Shen Jing's daily behavior, right?"
Fortunately, Hou Tianhou didn't have to go to court, otherwise, with Shen Borong's virtue, he might be so frightened that he kowtowed on the spot to apologize.
Everyone knew what Jiang Mu said, and they had long been dissatisfied with it.It is too easy for the whole family to make a fortune by relying on one person in the palace.At the same time, many people silently sympathized with the Shen brothers.
Working hard in the palace, but guarding the title for such a misbehaving patriarch.
But even though all the ministers understood what the emperor meant, they still had one doubt.
Lord Xiao continued, "But the position of Protector of the Shen family is the imperial seal of Tai Zu, and it has been handed down to this day. If he is dismissed rashly, I am afraid that he will be disrespectful to Tai Zu."
It really is a group of old stubborn.
Fortunately, I already have the secret treasure, otherwise when I want to marry Huaixi, you may have something wrong, Jiang Mu thought to himself.
"Don't worry, gentlemen, I have already asked Grandpa Huang for his opinion, and he has already agreed." Jiang Mu said calmly, as if he was asking a living person.
The ministers took it for granted that the emperor had asked about His Majesty Taizu's spirit position when he was offering sacrifices in the Taimiao. After all, no one would have thought that Taizu could really understand human affairs.
"Dare to ask how the emperor asked?" Someone in the hall asked in a low voice.
His Majesty the Emperor exchanged glances with Shen Yan on the right, signaling that he could bring it up.
Shen Yan nodded and went to the side hall.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what the emperor was going to do.
Is it possible to recruit spirits? !All the ministers were shocked by this thought and trembled.
Jiang Mu secretly smiled in his heart.
After a while, Shen Yan returned to the palace, holding two Divine Swords of Protecting the Nation in his arms.
Everyone immediately remembered the legend about Tai Zu and the Excalibur, and couldn't help but get nervous.
Sure enough, after receiving His Majesty's instructions, Shen Yan placed the two swords together on an open space in front of His Majesty's steps.
Shen Yan knelt down respectfully towards the two swords, and said softly, "My subject, Chen Yan, greets His Majesty Tai Zu."
Seeing this, the ministers were startled and frightened. Is His Majesty Tai. Zu really in the sword? !
Everyone waited with bated breath for His Majesty Tai Zu's answer, and also wanted to see what the answer would be.
After waiting for a long time, there was no movement.
Shen Yan had to raise her head, which had been lowered all the time.The emperor summoned the two brothers in the middle of the night last night, and he had already told them about this matter, and he indeed saw Tai Zu's behavior no different from others.So he looked at the emperor suspiciously.
In fact, my great-grandfather is getting angry majestically!
Last night, Jiang Mu threw His Majesty Tai Zu out of his hands in excitement, and it took a long time to make out with Gu Jue before he remembered.So he quickly picked it up to apologize to his grandfather and told him that Zeyu grew up in the back garden of Fengxi Palace.
The great-grandfather was considerate and didn't care about his grandson's rudeness, and was also happy for the two of them.In fact, he just watched it with relish.
In order to prevent any further accidents, Jiang Mu immediately dragged Gu Jue and His Majesty Tai Zu to the back garden of Fengxi Palace.
According to the time of the previous life, Zeyu will be able to bear fruit next year at the latest.
Sure enough, on that small hill, a few more leaves with a little bit of light blue grew, and there was a small warm orange fruit on the top, which looked not yet ripe, it was Zeyu.
Jiang Mu decided to let Liu Jie personally guard the place tomorrow, after all, he is the only one who is reliable and trustworthy.
Back in the Qingxin Palace, Jiang Mu summoned Shen Yan and Shen Bing to tell them the countermeasures for tomorrow.
The reason why Grandpa was angry was very simple, I was the founding emperor of the Great Yu Dynasty, how could I be on the court for people to watch like a performer!
Jiang Mu saw that his great-grandfather was having a fight, and he had already promised himself last night.So I had no choice but to amplify my voice on the dragon chair and said, "Grandpa Huang, my grandson wants to deprive the Shen family of his title, what do you want?"
Grandpa's expression dimmed in the invisible space.
Back then, although he and Shen Li were kings and ministers, they were also close friends.Shen Li fought with him on the battlefield, he made great achievements in battle and was loyal, so he thought of this way as a reward to Shen Li and the entire Shen family.He is strong in martial arts, and he regards Shen Li as his confidant, so naturally he doesn't think there is anything wrong.
But they didn't expect that after they both went to the ground, things would turn out like this.
If Shen Liquan had known, seeing that the descendants of the Shen family had become like this, I'm afraid he wouldn't feel at ease.
Thinking about it, the great grandfather swung the two swords on the ground up and down.
Courtiers: "!"
Everyone saw that this was the meaning of nodding their heads, and they knelt down and kowtowed to Tai Zu in fear, "I will see your Majesty!"
Shen Yan knelt between the ministers and His Majesty Tai Zu, and got up and stood aside when she saw this.
Jiang Mu nodded in satisfaction, and asked with a smile, "Your gentlemen, are you at ease now?"
"The emperor is wise!" Everyone said in unison.
"An Lu, declare the decree." Jiang Mu said to Eunuch An who had been waiting by the side.
Eunuch An Lu wiped the sweat from his palms, bravely walked to the center of the hall, and spread out the imperial decree to read out.
"Following the fate of heaven, the emperor's edict said: The holy king Gu Jue has meritorious service in battle and powerful protection. I am very happy for his good looks, morality and ability. Today, according to the decree of the Queen Mother, I will bestow the posthumous position and choose an auspicious day for marriage. This is my honor."
All the ministers: "!!"
Gu Jue knelt behind His Royal Highness the King of Chu, took a step to the outside when he heard the words, and knelt down again to accept the order.
"Sir, obey the order."
Although he still had that indifferent look on his face, he had already panicked in his heart.
Yesterday when Gu Jue was staying in Qingxin Hall, Eunuch An Lu secretly guessed about the two of them. Seeing Gu Jue's unhurried and indifferent look, he couldn't help but praise him in his heart.
As expected, he is the emperor's favorite person, and at first glance, he has the demeanor of a mother.
Eunuch An walked up to him, handed over the imperial decree to him, and said cheerfully, "Congratulations, His Royal Highness."
"Thank you, father-in-law." Gu Jue took the imperial edict and stood up, smiling lightly.
"Let's all get up." Jiang Mu watched his queen get up before letting everyone stand up.
Jiang Su also turned around, "Congratulations, Empress Empress!"
An Lu didn't dare to shout casually, but His Royal Highness King Chu could.
Gu Jue blushed slightly, and before he had time to speak, Hubu Shangshu stood up, regardless of whether he offended the new emperor, "Think twice, Your Majesty, there has never been a man entering the harem since Dayu was established. Not to mention being a concubine. Although His Royal Highness the Holy King has made great achievements, entering the palace as a concubine may not be competent for the affairs of the harem!"
Jiang Mu was not angry at the expected obstruction, but just gave Gu Jue a reassuring look, and then said, "This has never happened since the founding of the country, so let's start from here, and after a few hundred years, I will be considered a big man." The ancestor of descendants of Yu."
"Rules are made by people, and there is no such thing as prohibiting intermarriage between men in my Dayu law." Jiang Mu continued, "I will make a new law today. My Dayu people, regardless of men and women, as long as they have the same mind If they are married, they can get married, and intermarriage with men and women is treated equally."
"Master Zhang, do you remember?"
Mr. Zhang is the current Minister of Criminal Affairs. After Bai Muyang rebelled, the position of Shangshu is still vacant, so he should be in charge of all legal matters.
Mr. Zhang was secretly happy, and immediately agreed. If he did well, maybe the emperor would mention himself as a minister immediately.What's more, he felt that there was nothing wrong with intermarriage between men.
Hubu Shangshu continued to chatter, "But how can a man take care of the affairs of the harem and share the worries of the emperor?"
Although Jiang Mu didn't want to talk nonsense with him in his heart, he also knew that he was a loyal man who always thought of Da Yu, so he said, "There is no one else in my harem except the queen, so I don't need to manage it."
Now not only the Minister of the Household Department, but all the ministers were shocked, and they worked together to persuade the emperor, "Your Majesty must not do it. If there is no woman in the harem, the royal family will have no heirs. The matter of the emperor's heir is related to the destiny of the country. I hope the emperor will take back his order." !"
Jiang Mu was silent for a long time and said, "I know what you are worried about, but not only my son is called the emperor's heir, the sons of my brothers and brothers can also enter the palace as princes. What do you think?"
"This..." Everyone faltered and dared not speak.
Because His Royal Highness the King of Chu was standing at the head of the officials, looking at them with a smile.
The land of Chu is rich and vast, with a large population. If he offends the king of Chu and makes him dissatisfied, it will be troublesome to raise troops to rebel.
It is conceivable that this is what His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the King of Chu have discussed a long time ago.
"Why don't you ask Grandpa Huang what you mean?"
Gu Jue has been with His Majesty Tai Zu for so many years, His Majesty Tai Zu has long regarded him as closer than his own grandson.Jiang Mu knew this well in his heart and asked on purpose.
The ministers could all see that His Majesty the Emperor had made up his mind, and this was the only way left.What's more, His Majesty Taizu certainly didn't want to see his grandson have no heirs, so he complied with what the emperor said.
How dare you prevent my grandson's daughter-in-law from entering the palace, you disorderly officials and thieves!Grandpa thought grumpily.
Xiao Huaixi is kind-hearted and strong in martial arts, and has made great contributions to Da Yu, and has silently liked Jiang Mu for so many years.Where can I find such a good child!
□□Your Majesty thinks that these people are bullying granddaughter-in-law!
So Dongxi and Nishang got out of their sheaths at the same time, and everyone backed up a few steps in fright, for fear that one of them would accidentally wipe their own necks.
The two swords were suspended in the air for a while, and finally found a place to write, a solid wooden pillar carved with a nine-clawed golden dragon!
Issue a will, pass on the jade seal, report to the Taimiao, and amnesty the world.
Cui Jian, the leader of the Imperial Forest Army, colluded with the rebels and rebelled, and was exiled in the North. The entire Imperial Forest Army was fined for one year.
Although Jiang Qing is dead, the crime of colluding with Yan's rebellious party to murder the late emperor and intending to rebel is serious and cannot be lightly forgiven.
