On September 10, 2018, Yankang.

All civil and military officials gathered in the imperial city. At the abdication ceremony in Weiyang Palace, Emperor Yankang responded to the decree of heaven and personally took the stage to read the abdication edict, the Zen throne and the Grand Governor Li Xin.

All civil and military officials were trapped, and they knelt on the ground and shouted long live.

The new emperor wore the emperor's robe, wore the emperor's crown and stampede, ascended the throne, and issued an edict to ascend the throne to the throne, which was a general amnesty for the whole world.

At the same time, the southwest of the Great Seal of the Dragon was a member of the Southwest.

Duke Mu Ying of Qian made great contributions many times and was the first meritorious official in accordance with the dragon. In addition to still taking charge of Longwuwei, Duke of Qian was the prince of Qianning, and was hereditary.

It is worth mentioning that the Mu family already had a title of Shu King in the southwest, and the family could not have two kings. Therefore, the Shu King's Mansion in the southwest and the Qianning King's Mansion were officially separated. From then on, there were two families, one surnamed Li and the other surnamed Mu.

In name, Li Xiu, the King of Shu, was named king because he was Li Xin's adopted son.

The Minister of Shangshu's Right Pushe Zhao Jia was promoted to the Minister of Shangshu's Left Pushe, and officially took the position of Prime Minister of Shangshu's Stage. At the same time, he was awarded the title of Duke of Qi, which was hereditary.

Li Xin was the chief throne, and Li Shuo, the last of the three giants in the southwest, naturally became the royal family. The brother of this new emperor was named Prince Pengyuan because of his bloodline and still held the Shenwu Guard.

Originally, as Li Xin's brother, Li Shuo should have received a title of prince, but their brotherly relationship is quite tortuous. In addition, Li Shuo is still young and still has room for promotion in the future, so he has only been granted one prince for the time being.

However, Li Xin openly admitted his brotherly relationship with Li Shuo. This King Peng Yuan will be the royal family of the new dynasty, and his descendants will share weal and woe with the royal family. This time, he is the one who has benefited the most from the Southwest Group.

In addition to these three people, as long as the officials and generals in the Southwest have not made any bad deeds in the past two years, they will generally be promoted to two levels, and each person will be promoted to the first rank on the spot.

Originally, after Li Xin entered the capital, the officials and generals of the southwest had already occupied many important positions. With this promotion, the southwest team would have too much weight in the court. Therefore, in addition to the people of the southwest team, Li Xin also promoted many "indigenous" officials in the capital to ensure that the power of the court will not be imbalanced.

The new emperor sat on the dragon throne and listened quietly as the eunuchs read out one edict after another. After all the reward edicts were read, all civil and military officials knelt on the ground and asked the emperor to climb the altar to worship the heaven and worship the heaven and earth.

The major affairs of the country are always the most important things in sacrifice and military affairs. There is an altar for sacrifice in the imperial city. Li Xin, surrounded by civil and military officials, sealed the altar and burned incense to sacrifice to heaven and earth.

This is mainly to inform God that his son on earth has been replaced.

After the sacrifice to heaven and earth, Li Xin stood on the high altar and turned to face the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground, with a solemn voice.

"Today, I am obeyed the destiny of heaven, ascended the throne and the extreme of the emperor, established the country's name as Tang, and changed the Yuan Shenwu."

Every person in later generations has a dream of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Xin is no exception. There is no Tang Dynasty in this world. He happened to be surnamed Li, so his country name was naturally located in Tang, but the year name was a bit difficult to deal with. Li Yuan was really a little cowardly and could not use martial virtues directly, so he was called Shenwu.

The civil and military officials under the altar still knelt on the ground and shouted in unison.

"Long live the Tang Dynasty!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

Li Xin waved his hand and signaled them to stop, then walked down the altar and surrounded by everyone, he came to the main hall of Weiyang Palace. In the hall, he conferred the Ninth Princess as the Empress of New Tang, and appointed the eldest son Li Ping as the crown princess of the New Dynasty.

Originally, according to Li Xin's temper, the position of the crown prince would not be established as the eldest son, but when the new dynasty was established, the most needed was stability. Establishing a crown prince at this time would be conducive to the stability of the new dynasty. Anyway, he is only in his thirties this year and has practiced internal martial arts for nearly twenty years. He still has decades of good life and has plenty of time to select a suitable heir.

Li Xin's eldest daughter Li Shu and second daughter Li Jing were both crowned as princesses.

Zhong Xiaoxiao, who has been with Li Xin for almost twenty years, was also named Changning Princess.

After the enthronement edicts were issued one after another, Li Xin sat on the throne of Weiyang Palace and ordered his eldest son Li Ping to kneel in front of him.

His Highness, the newly-private Crown Prince, knelt respectfully on the ground.

Li Xin looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Today you are appointed as the crown prince, all civil and military officials are here. In front of all the ministers, I have made several family rules. After I die, I will be the ancestral teachings. Anyone with the surname Li should not be disobeyed."

Li Ping knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Son, listen to the Father's Holy Tragedy."

All the civil and military officials in the Weiyang Palace also knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "I will listen to the holy teachings of Your Majesty."

Li Xin stood up from the dragon throne, looked at the ministers below with his hands behind his back, and said, "I... have started from among the wild people. I can still live up to this day, and I will rely on the merits of all the ministers, and I will also have firearms to help me."

He looked down at his son, and his voice was low: "For hundreds of years, literature has flourished, which is a blessing for the country. However, the country and people's livelihood cannot be entrusted to all the sages. All the people's businesses are useful. Firearms and craftsmen are all major issues of the country. During the Tang Dynasty, the Shenji Camp I established will not be abandoned."

"The Shenji Academy I established will not be abandoned. From then on, the Shenji Academy will be set aside a sum of money every year by the Ministry of Revenue. If the treasury cannot afford the money, it will be distributed from the imperial treasury."

He looked at Li Ping and asked in a deep voice: "Did you understand?"

Li Ping kowtowed and said, "Son remember the Father's Holy Tradition."

Li Xin paused and continued, "There is that the Ji family in the previous dynasty was not virtuous, but after all, they were your mother family. In the Zheng Wangfu lineage, they would not be harmed unless they had any treason or rebellion."

Here, Li Xin originally wanted to say that there is no great evil in the world, but now every word he says will be recorded in history books. If there is no great evil in the Ji family, it means that the Li family is guilty of rebellion, so he can only change his words temporarily.

Li Ping kowtowed respectfully again: "My son obeys the order."

Emperor Shenwu sat back on his throne and reached out to his civil and military ministers and waved his hand.

"I have only said that for the time being, so I'll just be calm."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Today, the Tang Dynasty has just been established, and I will celebrate the new dynasty for three days in the imperial city."

"I, please congratulate Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty."

The process of ascending the throne was very cumbersome. Li Xin worked all day long and was able to return to the bedroom to rest until it was approaching the third update. The emperor's bedroom was still in the Weiyang Palace. Li Xin was lying alone on the large dragon bed because he was very tired. Although the bed was not very used to it, he had just lying down and fell asleep in a daze.

In his sleep, Li Xin vaguely saw an emperor wearing a crown, and stood by the bed and looked at him, sneering at him.

He suddenly woke up, sat up from the bed, looked around, and found that there was no one beside the bed.

He took a deep breath and lay back on the bed.

"You can't scare me, I'm not afraid of ghosts."

The next day, after Li Xin got up, he ordered the Emperor's Pedestal Hall to be moved back to Changle Palace from Weiyang Palace.

……………………

The second year of Shenwu.

It was September when Li Xin ascended the throne. Therefore, although it was already the second year of Shenwu, he had only been ascended the throne for three months. However, in these three months, there were indeed rebellions everywhere. The General of Shenwu Guard, Peng Yuan, King Li Shuo, had already led his troops out of the capital and suppressed the rebellion everywhere.

With the stability of the northern border, Ye Mao, the first Anbei Protectorate, also returned to the capital to congratulate the new dynasty.

It was the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. The emperor, who was afraid of the cold, was wearing a thick marten coat and standing on the wall of the palace with Duke Ye Mao of Chen.

Ye Mao is already forty years old now, and his hair is faintly seen on his temples. He stood behind Li Xin and said with a smile: "Although I had already expected that one day, I saw it with my own eyes and felt a little moved, thinking of His Majesty back then..."

Li Xin looked back at Ye Mao and said with a smile: "I thought of when I went to Ye's house to deliver wine, I was beaten up by Master Ye?"

Ye Mao laughed: "If Your Majesty doesn't mention this matter, no one will dare to mention it in the future."

The emperor shook his head and sighed: "That's nothing good. We have known each other for nearly twenty years. Do you know what kind of personality I have? I forced this position for someone."

"This is also impossible."

Ye Mao smiled and said, "Everyone has selfish intentions. Even if Your Majesty does not have it, you can't ask those of the Southwest Army to not have it. However, Your Majesty ascends the throne is not a bad thing. At least it will always be easier to do things in the Tang Dynasty than in the Great Jin Dynasty."

Li Xin turned around and looked at Ye Mao with a smile: "How do you know that I will not become the emperors of the Ji family in the future?"

Ye Mao shook his head.

"My grandfather once said that Your Majesty is a person who values ​​friendship and is very accurate in his view of people."

"No one can see the hearts of people, and their hearts will change."

Li Xin smiled at Ye Mao and said, "I try not to change it."

The uncle and nephew walked on the palace city and chatted all the time.

After chatting for a while, the emperor turned around and looked at Ye Mao, and asked with a smile: "How would you evaluate me above the historical books of later generations?"

Duke Chen lowered his head slightly and said with a smile: "I am just an ordinary general, there is nothing to say. As for Your Majesty... he is naturally a founding king who shines forever."

"It will indeed shine forever, but I'm afraid it will be a thief that will never be easy forever."

The emperor laughed at himself: "In the future, people who turn to my page will most likely curse me, saying that I bullyed orphans and widows."

"Yuan Zhao was in power for five years and was not considered an orphan."

Ye Mao lowered his head and said, "Besides, no matter how people in future generations evaluate His Majesty, they cannot pass through this page of His Majesty's book on history books."

Duke Chen looked up at the new emperor and said with a smile.

"In the past twenty years, Your Majesty has been walking along the way. I can say that I have read most of the time. Your Majesty can still be called four words, whether it is vision, mind, or ability."

"It's pleasant to listen to honest people flattering."

The emperor smiled: "What four words?"

Duke Chen's face was sincere and sighed from the bottom of his heart.

"Unparalleled in the world."
