In the twentieth year of Zhenguan, on the eighth day of April, the people of Chang'an City woke up from their sleep as usual. What was different from the past was that this night was very extraordinary, because Emperor Zhenguan, the great Human Emperor, had passed the throne.

During his reign, Li Shimin was able to appoint people with integrity, know them well and make good use of them; he opened up his mind, respected life, exercised self-restraint, and accepted advice with an open mind; he also adopted some policies based on agriculture, strict economy, recuperation, cultural and educational revival, and improvement of the imperial examination system, which made Li Shimin

The country has experienced unprecedented stability.

More importantly, as the immediate emperor, Li Shimin vigorously suppressed foreign invasions and successively destroyed the Eastern Turks, Tuyuhun, Gaochang, Western Turks, the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, Goguryeo, Silla and other countries, which greatly expanded the territory of the Tang Dynasty and achieved great success.

Unprecedented achievements of emperors.

On the day after announcing his abdication, the Supreme Emperor Li Shimin personally issued an edict, announcing to the world that the Zen Ceremony would be held in seven days. All officials of the sixth rank and above in the capital would attend the ceremony, and the curfew was lifted for seven days to celebrate the new emperor's accession to the throne.

Li Chengqian's enthronement ceremony was held in the Hanyuan Hall. After receiving the great ceremony from the civil and military ministers, he ordered Ma Zhou to read out the new emperor's edict: One: Change the 20th year of Zhenguan to the first year of Hongxi.

The emperor ascended the throne, granted amnesty to the world, and reformed the people.

Second: canonize the crown prince Dugu Miaoyin as the queen, and Liangdi Boluyu as the noble concubine.

Third: Li Xiang, the grandson of the emperor, was promoted to the crown prince and entered the East Palace; Li Yi was promoted to King Yong; Li Jue was promoted to King of Chu; and Li Xi was promoted to Princess Lantian.

Fourth: Zhunfang, invited by Du and other officials to become officials, moved to Cuiwei Mountain with the Supreme Emperor, with Changsun Wuji as the Shangshu Zuopushe, Xu Jingzong as the Shangshu Youpushe, Dou Kuan, and Chu Suiliang as the ministers; Qin Huaiyu as the Nanya

Li Jinghuan is the Grand Governor of Beiya, and Fang Yizhi is the Minister of the Ministry of War...

"My dear ministers, I have just ascended the throne. I shall continue to fulfill the emperor's orders and inherit the prosperous age of Zhenguan, so that our national power will be further improved during the Hongxi Dynasty, and our Tang Dynasty will be more prosperous!", sitting on the dragon throne.

Li Chengqian said solemnly.

The ministers headed by Changsun Wuji shouted: Long live, long live, long live your majesty, the new emperor. After that, the Tang Dynasty officially entered the Hongxi Dynasty, a new era, and the new emperor and them were the protagonists of this new era.

.

No one doubts whether the new emperor has the ability to lead them, because during the Zhenguan Dynasty, Li Chengqian's contribution was the greatest, and he maintained benevolent governance internally and fought against foreigners and foreigners. The Tang Dynasty was bound to move forward under the leadership of the new emperor.

After the dispersion of the dynasty, only Li Chengqian, Li Xiang, and Changsun Wuji were left in the Hanyuan Palace. As the uncle of the new emperor, Changsun Wuji was undoubtedly the happiest among all the officials, while the new prince Li Xiang was

Wearing a new robe, looking for differences from the original one.

The three of them had three identities within just a few days. It was a bit hard to accept, and it was human nature to have difficulty adapting for a while. Although Li Chengqian had overseen the country many times, after all, this was his first time becoming emperor, especially

Sitting here before the court, the feeling is absolutely different.

Therefore, Li Xiang's performance is not that he is unpromising. Even Li Chengqian can't adapt, let alone his children. Among the three, Changsun Wuji is the most reliable. After all, this is not his first time as a servant, and he is not unfamiliar at all.

feeling.

"Your Majesty, your interest does not seem to be too high. If you tell me if your ministers have done something inappropriate, I will immediately order them to correct it." Changsun Wuji respectfully asked.

Even if the person sitting on the dragon throne is his nephew, his status is different now. Changsun Wuji, the uncle, must always maintain the respect that a courtier should have, and he can no longer speak as casually as before.

As the head of the family, he knew very well that the reason why the Supreme Emperor was enthroned was because his nephew was too strong and excellent. He was so good that even someone as arrogant as the Supreme Emperor had to be convinced. How could his uncle dare not to do so?

Respect.

"Uncle, you are so polite. We are still the same as before. You say what you should say and do what you should do. It will not change in the past, it will not change now, and it will be the same in the future. I can be where I am today, and among all my ministers, you

The Changsun family has made great contributions, I will remember all of this!"

While talking, Li Chengqian took out an imperial edict from his sleeve and handed it to Changsun Wuji, and continued: "This edict is my promise to the Changsun family back then. Today is the first day that I ascend the throne. My promise back then has been fulfilled.

As for the court, don't be too showy, just follow the imperial edict."

As soon as Li Chengqian said these words, Changsun Wuji immediately knelt down, holding the imperial edict, his eyes were covered with mist, and he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, Changsun Wuji has no way to repay His Majesty's kindness. I can only bow my head and die exhausted.

Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

"Look, uncle, please be more polite and get back on your feet!" During the conversation, Li Chengqian gave Xiao Li Xiang a look and asked him to help Changsun Wuji up. Then he continued: "Uncle, after you get down,

Immediately go to Zhongshu Province to recruit troops, and order Niu Jinda of Xihai Road to immediately raise troops and annex Tubo."

"It's time for the country of Tubo to disappear from the world. On this year's Shangyuan Festival, I want Songtsan cadres and Ludongzan monarchs and ministers to perform dances for the Supreme Emperor. Niu Jinda's soldiers have been training for so many years, and it's time to show off their swords.

.”

The so-called new dynasty and new atmosphere, Li Chengqian wanted to let his subjects understand through this battle that Zhenguan was just the beginning, Hong Xi would continue to lead them to stand at the top of the world, and victory would always belong to the Tang Dynasty and to the billions of people.

After Changsun Wuji bowed and exited, Li Xiang tilted his head and asked: "Father, my uncle seems to have changed, and why does father want to attack a small country like Tubo?"

After hearing what Li Xiang said, Li Chengqian smiled at first, then pulled his son over and said warmly: "Xiang'er, you asked these two questions well."

"First, from today on, my father and you are the most noble people in the world. The so-called imperial power is in the control of you and my father and son. The whole world is not the royal land, and the shore of the land is not the royal ministers. We

To fulfill the responsibilities of a king and father, naturally my uncle must also fulfill the responsibilities of a minister."

"Second, the imperial power is supreme and the prestige of the country is supreme. No matter when it comes, you must remember that the truth of war is always within the attack range of the cavalry. So be prepared for a rainy day. As kings and fathers, our responsibility is to serve future generations and the world.

People, eliminate potential enemies as much as possible."

Seeing Li Xiang nodding his head in understanding, Li Chengqian smiled and touched his head, and continued: "Don't worry, one day you will understand, and one day wherever the sun shines, there will be

My territory of the Tang Dynasty."

After finishing speaking, he looked far-reachingly outside the hall, and his mind flew into the distance with the breeze; from this moment on, a new era was about to begin in the hands of their father and son.
