Chapter 87 Wang Ming, who was ignored but could not be ignored(1/2)

Zhu Yuanzhang walked in like a dragon and a tiger, and directly asked Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen without saying anything.

"What is the name of the country? Do you two have any conclusion?"

Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen stood up respectfully and listened to Li Shanchang say with a smile, showing that they were confident.

"As for the country name, what I see below is completely consistent with what Bowen said."

“The name of the new dynasty is Ming Dynasty!”

"It means, firstly, that because of the greatness of the Ming sect, King Xiao Ming is the sect."

"Both of them, Ming is the combination of the two characters sun and moon, and they follow the way of heaven to determine the universe."

"Three, the Ming Dynasty is so great that it is unparalleled in the world. The Ming Dynasty is so bright that it will never be destroyed throughout the ages!"

Liu Bowen later added:

"Fourth, the two characters Da Ming are derived from the Amitabha Sutra."

"The Buddha said that the light he shines on countless places in the world and in the dark places will always be bright."

Zhu Yuanzhang chewed the word "Da Ming" in his mouth, and silently added another sentence in his heart.

Fifth, the Ming Dynasty’s Ming Dynasty also originated from Wang Ming’s Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty King’s Ming Dynasty respected the gods!

If there was no Wang Ming back then, Zhu Yuanzhang would probably always be just Zhu Chongba.

When Zhu Yuanzhang thought of this, an extremely complicated emotion arose in his heart for no reason. He nodded slowly after a while and said:

"Daming, Daming...this is a good name."

"It's catchy when you say it, and it sounds very loud. Think about it, it's a lot of fun."

"Well, okay, it's settled... What about the capital, what do you two think about it?"

Li Shanchang answered hesitantly.

"Uh...I still advocate that Yingying Tianfu (i.e. Jinling City) should be established."

"The reason is that Jinling City is close to Zhongshan Mountain and faces the Yangtze River. The tiger is sitting on the dragon's plate, and the world is victorious."

"Establishing it as the national capital will ensure the eternal destiny of the country."

"In addition, several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are land of plenty, so it is convenient to have Jinling as the capital to control the national economy."

"Thirdly, most of the high-ranking civil servants and generals are descendants of Huaixi, and they all hope to establish their capital in Yingtian."

"The heart of civility and military affairs must not be ignored."

Zhu Yuanzhang hummed slightly, seeming to agree, but looked at Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen lowered his head slightly and said slowly:

"I think Yingtian Mansion can be temporarily designated as the capital, but it should not last long."

"Over the past dynasties, the Yingtian Palace and the city pool have been relocated erratically, and the city's piers and trenches have been excavated and filled many times. There are pits, swamps and canals everywhere. As a result, the earth's veins have been drained and the king's energy has been difficult to recover."

"Since the Six Dynasties, any dynasty that has established its capital here has settled in a corner, and then was submerged and perished."

"In addition, for thousands of years, most of the Huma barbarians who endangered China came from the northern frontier."

"Whenever the Holy Dynasty was prosperous, guarding the borders and controlling the enemy should be the first priority when establishing a capital."

As soon as these words came out, they entered Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, and he thought so in his heart.

"This is what we think. Yingtian will be temporarily designated as the capital of the country. After the world is calmed down, one of the two cities, Bianliang (today's Kaifeng) and Dadu (today's capital), will be chosen to become the new capital, and Yingtian will be demoted to

Accompanying the capital, implementing the system of two capitals in the north and south."

Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen looked at each other and both said:

"appropriate."

"appropriate."

"Only the three of us know this matter, so we must not leak it."

"As commanded."

"As commanded."

After saying the name of the country and deciding on the capital, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stood up with a smile on his face, picked up an edict, and walked up to the two of them.

"This is the enthronement edict that Song Lian drafted for us."

"After we saw it, we almost didn't recognize ourselves."

"Haha... He wrote in it that Zhu Yuanzhang is the True Dragon Emperor who has been dormant for thousands of years!"

"As for my mother, she saw the sky full of rays of sunshine during her pregnancy. The moment we were born, it was even more red from the sky."

"There are also blue birds and white tigers protecting each other. When my mother and her son were bathing in the river, five-color ribbons floated down from the upper reaches. She took them and wrapped them around her body. The whole river immediately turned red and bright... Hahahaha..."

"Oh, our Zhu Chongba, under Mr. Song's brilliant strokes, is no longer a human being, but a god!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and laughed at himself.

Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen chuckled twice, and then listened to Li Shanchang say:

"My superiors, I think what Mr. Song said is not inappropriate at all."

"The emperor is the god in the world."

Liu Bowen also smiled and shook his head and said:

"Even if the commander-in-chief thinks he is not right, he must let the people think he is."

"If there were no gods for the people to worship, there would be no human world."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and asked again.

"You two, do you think it's appropriate?"

"appropriate."

"appropriate."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.

"But we don't like it. We think it's too much like a drama, and it's very fake."

"We know that we are not gods. If we really say gods, even Wang Ming may not be... ahem..."

"We feel that this edict should state bluntly that we were born into extreme poverty, with no roof over our heads and no clothes on our bodies!"

"When my parents died, they couldn't even drink a sip of rice soup. My brother took off his own clothes and bound my mother's feet!"

"Two tails of reed mats for the burial of our father and mother!"

Li Shanchang heard this and whispered:

"Your Excellency, if I tell you these painful and embarrassing things, I'm afraid it will tarnish the Emperor Long's majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang replied:

"But when people all over the world hear this, won't they feel very kind to it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang bent slightly and approached the silent Liu Bowen and asked slowly.

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's tone at this time, Liu Bowen felt his heart tremble, feel warm, and then feel cold again.

Strange, why do you feel cold?

Li Shanchang on the side, his heart was beating and he was getting chills for some unknown reason.

"They will know that Zhu Yuanzhang turned out to be an emperor with mud legs who protruded from the earth!"

"This man is amazing, really amazing!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice became louder and louder as he spoke, waving his long sleeves violently and excitedly.

"In this way, the people will feel that we are more friendly, more respectful, and even more fearful!"

"I came from a poor background but have conquered the world! This is neither a bad thing nor an ugly thing, and we feel even more glorious!"

"Back then, even Wang Ming admired me and said that if we could become emperor in the future, we would be even better than Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty simply because of our low birth status!"

"We, deeply agree!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was extremely loud at this time, and the room was completely silent.

After a while, Liu Bowen suddenly stood up.

"What the commander said is truly otherworldly and superb!"

“There is no such thing as an emperor’s enthronement edict from ancient to modern times!”

Li Shanchang, who was a step behind, had an ugly expression on his face. The opportunity to take a picture of the dragon's fart was actually snatched by Liu Bowen.

"Okay, in that case, please trouble me sir to write another one for us."

"Bowen is lucky enough to write such an edict on his enthronement. I'm afraid his reputation will be passed down through the ages!"

Zhu Yuanzhang enjoyed this subtle slap on the dragon's butt, and his smile became brighter. Only Li Shanchang, who was a step slower, lowered his head slightly, and his face became even more ugly.
