imprinted you in my heart

According to the vacancy list and four recommendation lists of the Ministry of Officials, as well as the information he had received through Chen Jiyuan over the past three years, Xing Boen's and others' evaluations, and his own judgment, Shi Min finally drew up the appointment list overnight.

Shi Min, who had been busy until late at night and didn't fall asleep, was woken up before dawn. Under the service of Ji Chun, Xi Xia, Fan Qiu and Wu Dong, he put on the extremely cumbersome imperial robes and crowns for the enthronement ceremony.

The crown for the enthronement ceremony is the same as usual, with twelve jade algae, the length of which covers the face.Jade algae refers to the use of multicolored silk strips as hanging ropes, and each hanging rope runs through jade beads.Although the color of the imperial robes at the ceremony was pure purple, the pattern was quite different from the usual court clothes. Instead of embroidering a phoenix, it was embroidered with twelve patterns, including the sun, the moon, stars, dragons, mountains, and fire.

In addition to inner and outer garments, there are also accessories such as knee coverings, skirts, and large belts.The emperor's enthronement dress is extremely cumbersome, not only to show the emperor's noble status, but also to show respect for heaven.

"Your Majesty, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites is asking to see you." Lu Guanchu who was guarding the door hurried forward to report after receiving the transfer from the palace servant.

"Let him in." Wearing this attire, Shi Min felt that she would be hot and sweaty for a while, and it was midsummer, not only did she wear several layers, but she had to stand under the sun afterwards, it was really hot just thinking about it.

"Chen Ma Jie respectfully invites Your Majesty Shengan. This is the year name drawn up by the minister and Qin Tianjian and the temple name and posthumous title of the first emperor. Please decide on it." Ma Jie presented the memorial after saluting.

"Aiqing is free of courtesy" It was the first time someone knelt down to him, Shi Min was still a little unaccustomed to it, and began to look at the memorabilia handed over by Lu Guanchu.

The temple names proposed by the Ministry of Rites are Mu Zong and De Zong, both of which are not good temple names. Mu Zong means to die young, and De Zong means to encounter wars, which are suitable for the late emperor. The posthumous names proposed are Huai Min, Simin and Yuan Min, all of which are The posthumous posthumous title is enough to show mercy to the first emperor.

Her year names are quite well drawn, Tiancheng, Tianfu, Tianzheng, Tianci, Tianshou, Jingming, Jiayou and Yuanguang, there are quite a few, and the meanings are not bad.

"Although the mother emperor's Western Expedition failed, but her courage is commendable. Mu Zong and Huai Min are better. As for my reign name, it will be a blessing." Shi Min made the final decision, and the matter was settled like this.

The year name is fixed, but according to the usual practice, it will be changed in the next year. This year, it will be the fourth year of Jianping.

After Ma Jie left, Shi Min started to get busy after having a hasty breakfast. First, he led the remaining more than 100 officials to the Heaven and Earth Altar to worship the Heaven and Earth.

After returning to the palace, it took another half an hour to have lunch and rest, and it was late when she brought all the officials to the Mingyue Hall to pay homage to the ancestors. Xuanyuanmo read a long sacrificial oration. I also took the article drawn up by the Ministry of Rites and read it for a long time.

The most important, grand and final part of the enthronement ceremony is the enthronement ceremony held in the large square outside the Chengtian Hall. The civil and military officials lined up in order, and the palace servants and internal guards also stood at their posts, embroidered with the purple color of the phoenix. The flag flutters in the wind and shines brightly in the sun.

The hot sun made Shi Min's underwear completely soaked. Ji Chun and the others can help her wipe the sweat when she is not performing rituals and offering sacrifices. At least her face is clean. Like rain, it feels like the sweat can flow into the eyes when you close your eyes.

The civil and military officials and palace servants were better, because they were all wearing summer official uniforms and summer clothes, but they were also sweating profusely, and they were not much better than her in the armor of the Imperial Guard.

In the sound of playing music, under the witness of the imperial grandmother, the queen mother, and all civil and military officials, she stepped up the steps leading to the phoenix throne. If the sacrifices in front made her feel solemn, it is a sense of honor that she has never had before. and responsibility.

Zhao Huan and Wen Yu, who only participated in this session, sat on the left and right sides of the phoenix seat, watching their grandson and daughter step by step towards the responsibilities she should have borne like their partners. Feel at ease like never before.

After saluting to the imperial grandmother and the queen mother, Shi Min solemnly took over the jade seal representing the emperor's power from the queen mother, passed it to Lu Guanchu, and turned around domineeringly, finally sitting on the phoenix seat that everyone dreams of symbolizing absolute power .

"Long Live the Emperor Long Live Long Live"

"Long Live the Emperor Long Live Long Live"

"Long Live the Emperor Long Live Long Live"

Except for the Empress Dowager and the Empress, all the officials present, palace servants and internal guards bowed three times in unison. The ceremony of worship.

The six Xing Boen who were fortunate enough to be attended by Shi Min's grace to participate in this enthronement ceremony were deeply shocked by this scene, which will never be forgotten. Xing Boen even swore in his heart: 'Your Majesty, I will dedicate the rest of my life to my loyalty'.

Most of the people recited silently in their hearts: "Your Majesty, please lead the country of Hua, lead us to prosperity and rule the world."

Shi Min saw it all, saw his minister's longing for prosperity, and also saw Xing Boen's loyalty. When he wanted to speak, he missed the loudspeaker used to help the poor in the past. Now there is no one, so he had to try his best to raise the volume and slow down his speech. Quickly, "I have been ordered by the heavens to inherit the great order. I will take it as my duty to suppress the rebellion and expel Braque, and continue the 'rule of the four emperors' as my lifelong goal. I will work hard and work hard to create a prosperous and prosperous world."

"Long Live the Emperor Long Live Long Live"

Under Shi Min's instruction, Ma Jie, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, began to announce the first imperial edict. Open Enke after March.

The second imperial decree finalized the dispatch of troops announced yesterday in the form of an imperial decree, and named Gu Yunchou as Taifu, Qi Ming as a young master, Wang Changwu as a young tutor, Gu Yunchou received the imperial decree as Marshal Zhengxi, and Shi Yan from The Imperial Guard dispatched [-] cavalry and [-] infantry to her, and the army set off in an hour.

The third imperial decree is to pardon the ministers who were framed and imprisoned by the traitor Yang Zhihong, restore them to their posts, and announce the latest personnel appointments. As Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Ma Jie was promoted to Minister of Rites, and all important departments with vacancies were appointed.

The fourth imperial decree is amnesty for the world, tax exemption for three years, all nationwide, but the amnesty world has detailed rules and conditions for amnesty, such as committing major criminal cases is not within this scope.

In the 609th year of the Hengli calendar, on June 29th in the fourth year of Jianping, Shi Min ascended the throne as emperor, starting her journey to save the empire.

By convention, in order to show respect and remembrance to the late emperor, the new emperor will continue to use the first emperor's year name in the year when he ascends the throne, and will not use the new year name until the next year.

After the enthronement ceremony, Shi Min immediately summoned six of his attendants, Xing Boen. The teachers were given real positions, and she was also enthroned as emperor, so her study was temporarily over, so she asked them if they would like to go to the army for a training experience. Fan, unexpectedly, all six of them expressed their desire to go urgently.

The reason why she let the army set off in an hour is to give them a chance to practice. Since they all want to go, it should be too late to go home and say goodbye.

For the next half month, Shi Min was busy almost every day until late at night. In addition to going to court every day, she would set aside an hour from noon to afternoon every day to meet with the ministers. Through private interviews, she could better understand each minister. character and ideas, and all recorded with a notepad.

Then there is the review of memorials and secret letters. There are no memorials in Huaguo, they are all memorials and secret letters in rolls. Secret letters can only be submitted by officials with important matters and above the third grade, and once submitted, they must be sent in an urgent report of six hundred miles or more, so On average, I receive more than ten letters a month, which is already a lot.

But now it's an eventful time, on a good day, at least one secret letter will be received, on a bad day, a few, even more than ten secret letters can be received, which is far worse than her grandma's pacification of the Eight Kings Rebellion Nothing less than that, memorials are all officials, and even the common people can entrust officials to report.

Therefore, even if the prime minister helped with the initial reading and drafted the instructions with small notes, she would have to review until late at night before she could finish reviewing the memorials of the day. After half a month, she had gradually adapted to this intensity of work. other ideas.

After more than half a month of unremitting efforts by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Criminal Justice, they finally completed the work of confiscating the property of nearly 400 prisoners, and all of them were counted into the national treasury. The child has increased by nearly 2000 million taels, and she has the confidence to fight the war.

The 2000 million taels is not counted as being corrupted by officials. If you say that these officials are not greedy at all, let alone she doesn’t believe it, even a child playing on the street won’t believe it if you ask him.

punish severely?Originally, there were more than 200 officials of the fourth rank and above in the imperial court. First, more than 100 were taken away by the first emperor. After Yang Zhihong rebelled, he was dismissed and sent nearly [-] people, but only [-] people were in her hands.

She specially summoned Duan Yunjie because of official affairs. According to her statistics, since the founding of the Hua Kingdom, there were more than 2000 officials of the ninth rank and above in the imperial court at most, but there were only more than [-] in the downsizing period. There are more than [-] people, but after more than three years of demotion and massacre, it has been reduced to more than [-] people.

In addition to the more than 200 people who were taken away by Shi Xuan and the more than 400 people who were demoted and ransacked by her, when she became the throne, there were less than 400 people including the ninth-rank sesame officials. Later, more than 100 people were transferred from various places. More than 50 people who are close have come to report to take office, and the rest are still on the way.

On the other side, after nearly ten days of rapid march, Gu Yunchou led the generals and [-] foreign imperial troops to finally arrive at Ningguang County, the front line of Sanchuan. , to show that she, a frontier official, has absolutely no intention of getting involved in the military.

Gu Yunchou knew her thoughts and admired her loyalty and patriotism, so afterward, he made Yan Yinuo's first request for merit after the expedition, secretly reported to Fandu, and fought bloody battles for nearly half a month to prevent Sikong from advancing eastward. , are all great contributions and should be commended.

After Sikong made a false inheritance edict to support Shiji as emperor, he signed a cooperation agreement with Braque to form a coalition of 30 troops to carve up the 36 provinces of China. In less than five days, he sent troops from Beisha and arrived in Ningguang County without any hindrance.

The military-civilian coalition formed by the governor of Sanchuan Province resisted desperately and could not advance an inch, so they had to set up camp outside Ningguang County. Because of the hot summer, all 30 troops were stationed in the woods in the suburbs.

Shi Zhu, who was proclaimed emperor, was training with the soldiers at this time. As usual, she was always the one who won. She was very happy to win at the beginning, but it would be boring to win all the time. Shi Zhu said unhappily: "With you It's really boring to fight, I will definitely go to the battlefield to fight them someday."

Knowing that the army sent by Shi Min had arrived in Ningguang County, Sikong Li, who was frowning, discussed with Marshal Braque all afternoon and finally decided on the opportunity. He would come out for a walk in a good mood, and just heard Shi Zhi's words, so he went to Qian Qian persuaded: "Your Majesty must not think so. The people Shi Min sent are all vicious people. If you have good or bad things on the battlefield, how can you ask the old minister to explain to the late emperor?"

"I know, what I heard from the Prime Minister is that the Prime Minister does not need to worry." Shi Zhuo stepped forward to help Si Kong Yu and comforted him.

Thanks to the good genes continuously improved by her ancestors, Shi Zhi, who is only 12 years old, is about the same size as a boy of [-] or [-] years old. Compared with Shi Xuan, she is more inclined to Wen Yu, and her royal temperament is deeply rooted in her bones. .

When she first learned that her mother had died from an arrow, Shi Zhu was so sad that she almost fainted. After waking up, she was inexplicably called Your Majesty by the prime ministers and ministers. Later, she became the emperor after a simple enthronement ceremony.

The Queen Mother once said that she would pass on the throne to her, so knowing that the Queen Mother died immediately after being hit by an arrow, she did not doubt the will of the Prime Minister at all, and she became the Emperor whom she had long regarded as her own with peace of mind.

Shi Xuan had indeed said this to his second daughter in private, and he really wanted to pass on the throne to his second daughter, Shi Zhu, who was more like her, but not at this time.

Because Shi Zhu is not an adult now, nor has any power, and without her support, if the country is handed over to her, it is tantamount to handing over Huaguo to others, so even if she can leave a will, she will not let it go. Shi Zhu succeeded to the throne, not to mention she had no chance at all.

After being proclaimed emperor, Shi Zhi rewarded the first emperor and the ministers who accompanied the army. She knew that she was weak and could only rely on Sikong, so she made Sikong the Marquis of Changwen and worshiped him as the Grand Marshal of Crusade However, he didn't know anything about the cooperation agreement between Sikong and Braque, let alone respecting her and doing all kinds of good things for her on weekdays. ?
