After the enthronement ceremony, Zhao Jun was not allowed to go first, and a series of canonizations followed immediately. The rest can be ignored for now, but Empress Zhang must be canonized first and be enshrined as the Holy Mother Queen Mother.
Next came his imperial brother. Although his imperial brother had never been an emperor, Zhao Jun still gave him the title of Emperor Xiaowu.
The emperor's brother's crown prince Li Shi Qingning was canonized as Queen Xiaowen and lived with the Queen Mother and Queen Mother in Cining Hall and Ciming Hall.
Then came Ye Yin, the princess who had accompanied him all the way and naturally became the queen.
Ayimu and Qing'er were named concubines, Taiyi and Guiyi respectively.
Ayimu, who had already learned a little bit about the culture of the Song Dynasty, naturally did not want it. She was a majestic princess of the same country, and she was actually given the same concubine title as a maid like Qing'er. This was an insult to her.
But Zhao Jun would not spoil her. What kind of princess, a princess whose country was destroyed, was restored to the country with his own help? What qualifications did she have to negotiate terms with him?
In the end, Ayimu could only let it go in frustration.
The next thing is the most important thing, and what the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are most concerned about!
Can the current emperor's eldest son Zhao Jian, also known as Hu Zi, be named the prince?
This marks the stability of the crown prince's position in the Song Dynasty, and also reassures the people of the world that the throne of the Song Dynasty can be passed down in an orderly manner.
Although I don’t know if this brat will be successful in the future, after all, he is the eldest son of his family and was born to Ye Yin. In addition, he also felt that he could educate him well, so Huzi was Zhao Jian’s official son on the third day after Zhao Jun ascended the throne. He was canonized as Crown Prince!
Immediately afterwards came the general amnesty. Except for the death row prisoners, all other prisoners were pardoned as long as they had not committed murder or arson.
At this point, a series of events after taking the throne finally came to an end, and everything began to go on track.
And Zhao Jun has to start cleaning up the mess left by his father!
Chui Gong Hall.
Today is Zhao Jun's first formal court meeting to handle government affairs after he ascended the throne.
After the eunuchs who sang and drank and the ministers saluted, the court meeting officially began.
"Every prince has his own foundation to fight, but he has no foundation to retreat from the court!"
As the current chief companion and the number one eunuch in the palace, Wang Huai'en started to go through the procedures with a beaming face.
The first court meeting, especially after the Huns were wreaking havoc, was naturally not going to be uneventful.
As soon as Wang Huaien finished speaking, Zhang He took the lead and coughed lightly. In an instant, other ministers who had also wanted to go to work immediately retracted their feet, quietly watched the prime minister walk out, and said with cupped hands:
"Start playing, Your Majesty, if you wish, please play!"
Zhao Jun nodded slightly and said calmly: "Mr. Zhang, please speak."
Zhang He immediately said: "Your Majesty, from the entrance of the Qianfan Xiongnu, from Hedong to Guanzhong, northern Liaoning to Nanyang and even around Bianjing, everything has been wreaked havoc by the Xiongnu.
Countless people were killed and injured, and the property of the Song Dynasty was plundered and immeasurable.
Although the old Prince of Zhenxi personally led troops to retake part of it, nearly five counties are now in ruins, and millions of people have lost their homes and livelihoods.
Although the Huns have been expelled, the people have no choice but to flee. According to the latest reports from officials sent by the imperial court, people fleeing from all over the country are coming to Bianjing.
If it is not dealt with in time, Bianjing may be surrounded by millions of refugees, and the local area will be deserted for thousands of miles.
This is a huge trouble for both the local government and Bianjing.
Please tell me as soon as possible, your Majesty, what should we do? "
The issue Zhang He is currently raising is indeed the most difficult issue for the court at present. The impact of the Xiongnu invasion can not only be eliminated by driving the Xiongnu out.
The trouble caused by a series of follow-up is the real headache.
These things would definitely be extremely difficult for other princes who first came to the throne, but for Zhao Jun, this is not difficult.
Refugees, refugees, what are refugees?
That is the people who can no longer survive in their hometown and have no choice but to wander around in search of a chance of survival.
The answer to why I can't survive is that I have no food to eat.
What does Zhao Jun do most now?
The answer is of course food!
Ever since he got rid of the poison, Yunzhou County has never had to worry about food.
Oh, no! Yes!
That is worrying about having too much food and no place to put it.
Zhao Jun can afford to support tens of millions of refugees, let alone millions of refugees.
But, that's not how things work.
I am the emperor now, and I spend money to hire ministers like you to serve as errands. But when there is a problem, you actually ask me what I should do?
Then I can handle it, why should I ask you to be an official?
When you are an official, you cannot share your worries with your superiors. Instead, you let your superiors solve the problems for you. Why don't you go home and sell sweet potatoes?
Therefore, faced with this problem, Zhao Jun thought for a while with a very serious face, and then asked: "What should Zhang feel?"
Then he looked at the ministers and asked: "All of you, dear friends, are the top people in our Song Dynasty. I think there must be a way to solve this matter.
Today is my first court meeting since I ascended the throne. There are still many things I don’t know how to do, and I still need your help.
There is no need to be restrained, dear friends, feel free to speak your mind freely! "
Zhao Jun put the question back directly.
These ministers were dumbfounded by this!
In fact, the question raised by Zhang He was proposed by a group of officials after discussion yesterday.
It's because everyone doesn't know how to deal with the millions of victims, and they want to take advantage of the fact that the new emperor has just ascended the throne and is not very experienced yet, so they can leave the problem to him to solve.
Anyway, before the new emperor ascended the throne, he was already extremely wealthy in Yunzhou County.
With Feiyun Trading Company in hand, it is not an exaggeration to say that the new emperor is the richest person in the Song Dynasty. After more than ten years of development, today's Feiyun Trading Company relies on the various high-quality products continuously produced by Yunzhou County. It has long become the number one trading house in the Song Dynasty, with branches in every prefecture and county in the Song Dynasty.
Otherwise, everyone would not be surprised why the new emperor was able to spend two million taels on the court before he ascended the throne. It was because he knew that the new emperor was rich.
They thought that as long as the new emperor came out from under the nails, the current problem would be solved, and they would not have to wait for someone to have a headache.
But what they didn't expect was that the new emperor actually used the reason that he had just ascended the throne and was not familiar with government affairs to throw the problem back and asked them to come up with a solution!
Damn it! Better than a monkey!
How come you are not familiar with government affairs!
"Ah, this... this... this..."
All the officials looked at each other, but Zhang He lowered his head and laughed secretly. He had known for a long time that this trick would not work. Zhao Jun, a vassal king who had been exiled, could reach this stage and ascend to the throne. There was absolutely nothing wrong with his brain. .
You guys actually want to deceive others. It would be nice if you don't get deceived.
Snickering and laughing, he raised his head slightly and immediately changed into a look of deep thought, just like other officials.
At this time, an official suddenly stood up and suggested: "Your Majesty, how about opening a warehouse to store grain?"
As soon as he said these words, he immediately attracted everyone's attention, wanting to see who the idiot was who came up with such a suggestive opinion.
Zhao Jun also looked over with a strange look on his face.
Who is this genius? If there is food in the official warehouse, is there any need to worry?
He actually allowed the warehouse to be stocked with grain, what a talent!
