April 5th.
A new king ascends the throne to rule the world.
Hundreds of officials entered the palace and faced Tianyan.
Before dawn. The palace was already crowded with people. The eunuchs were busy working, and the imperial guards all wore uniforms and were on guard in high spirits and joy.
On the palace gate.
The flag with the word "Han" flutters in the wind.
Soon after, civil and military officials gathered in front of the palace gate in sedan chairs, carriages, or horses. The court uniforms and official hats are all complete, and the appearance is full.
The grass-roots team cannot do anything else.
A country must pay attention to details.
The Ouchi guard who was responsible for opening the palace door waited nervously. When the time is up, the palace door opens. Under the leadership of the cabinet ministers, the officials entered the palace and headed towards Deyang Palace.
Deyangjeon is the place where the King of Goguryeo ascended the throne.
On both sides of the road stood Ouchi guards and well-appearing Goguryeo eunuchs holding Buddha dust. After entering Deyang Hall, all civil and military officials were arranged neatly according to their shifts.
Not long after. Wu Nian, wearing a black royal robe with wide sleeves and a crown, was surrounded by eunuchs and came to sit on the throne.
Under Liu Zhixing's formulation, Wu Nian would wear various robes and crowns under various circumstances.
When the new king ascends the throne, he wears this outfit.
As Wu Nian sat down, the eunuch said "sing". All civil and military officials bowed down to worship the king. After the ceremony, Wu Nian led all civil and military officials and Prince Wu Yu to the outside of the city to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.
He officially succeeded to the throne as king, and his country was named Han.
Changed to Yuan Jianwu.
This year is the first year of Jianwu.
This ritual was very complicated, and it made the Wu family and his son feel like they were in a state of ecstasy after they came back. Wu Nian was already exhausted, much more tired than fighting.
After taking a cold bath, Wu Nian hugged Liu Xiang's fragrant body and fell asleep together on the dragon bed.
Three days after the new king ascended the throne.
Wu Nian then took Prince Wu Yu, as well as a few officials such as Cui Wushuang, the Minister of Rites, from Jiangcheng to Beishan Fort.
This morning.
Wu Nian arrived at Beishan Fort. At the city gate, Wu Nian and Wu Yu got off the carriage and looked up at the castle.
The castle is still the same castle, but a flag with the character [Chinese] has been erected on the gate. There were many people waiting in front of the door.
Wu Nian turned to look at his son and said, "Son. Ahead is Beishan Castle. This is where my father started his business."
"There are still many old memories of my father in the city."
"You grew up in fine clothing and good food. Being a father does not require you to endure hardships and stand hard work. But I do require you to remember the sufferings of your father's generation and don't forget them."
"The future of Han is yours. You have to learn how to steer the ship well."
"Yes." Wu Yu bowed his hands like a young adult.
There is nothing to say about manners.
Wu Nian smiled and touched the back of his son's head, then took his son's hand and walked up.
"Meet the King."
Welcome to the crowd. Li Changyong, the leader of the Beishan Fort, led everyone to kneel down and salute Wu Nian.
Wu Nian quickly helped him up and said, "We are all fellow villagers from our hometown, so there is no need to kneel down. Kill me."
As he spoke, Wu Nian raised his head and looked at everyone's faces. There were familiar faces and new faces.
After so many years, some people have died of old age and some have grown up.
But most of the people I know about Wu Nian can't even name him.
Only two people were recognized.
One is Zhang Chaoyong and the other is Wang Youjun.
The last time Wu Nian went home to worship his ancestors, he had a great chat with them.
"Old sir, are you eighty years old? It's great to see that you are still strong." Wu Nian came up and looked at the old Wang Youjun and said.
Wang Youjun needed his son's support to stand firm, but his ears were still sensitive. He nodded and said: "Eighty-two." Then he said happily: "Longevity is also a good thing."
"I can actually see the day when the king ascends the throne and becomes king. The ancestors of the Wu family will be very happy if they know this."
Wu Nian is not interested in ghosts and gods, but he is respectful to his ancestors. He smiled and echoed a few words, then asked Zhang Chaoyong to say a few words, and asked the names of everyone present.
No one was left out. Every old friend and fellow villager who spoke to Wu Nian had a glowing face, showing pride and honor.
After chatting with his fellow villagers and old friends, Wu Nian first entered the palace in the city, which was the original residence of General Fu Han, and stayed there, and entertained his old friends with a banquet.
Those who met him at the city gate ate with him.
All other adult men in Beishan Fort can eat.
Wu Nian stayed in Beishan Fort for three days and had enough food for three days. Take Wu Yu with you to climb high and look far away, or revisit old places.
I also went to the place where I killed the tiger. Wu Nian told his son about the past, how he started the army, and the hatred he had with Ban Bian Zhang.
He also said that the generals of Liaodong, the country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and the people were in dire straits.
Wu Yu is currently studying, but many things will not be told to readers in the book. You have to rely on your own experience, the deeds and wisdom of your predecessors to understand.
Wu Yu is very quiet and looks like a boudoir lady. But he is actually very wise, and I gained a lot from listening to my father’s words.
This morning.
Under the chairmanship of Cui Wushuang. Wu Nian and his son took their old friends and fellow villagers from Beishan Fort to climb mountains to worship their ancestors. There used to be an ancestral hall on the mountain, but now the mountain has been excavated and an underground palace has been built inside.
Wu Nian's father and ancestors were reburied.
The tomb is very high, which is in line with the current status of the Wu family.
It stands to reason.
The king can set up seven memorial tablets of his ancestors in the ancestral temple to worship them, and he can be posthumously named King of Han. But Wu Nian only remembers the names of his father and grandfather.
Liu Zhixing suggested that Wu Nian could reconstruct the family tree and trace the Wu family back to the State of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Just like Goguryeo Zhuge Village.
But Wu Nian refused.
Therefore, although there are seven tablets enshrined in the temple, only Wu Nian's father and ancestor have names and posthumous titles.
The process of offering sacrifices is as complicated as the enthronement. Wu Nian and his son were very tired, so they waited until it was over. Wu Nian and his son returned to Beishan Fort and had a banquet with their old friends and fellow villagers.
He stayed for another three days.
The scenery is glorious and the people return home in fine clothes.
So much so that people from nearby castles or villages who had received the news, and people who had or had nothing to do with the Wu family, came to join in the fun one by one.
For these people, Wu Nian also entertained them as a landlord.
No one was left out in the cold.
after. Wu Nian also selected two people from the descendants of Zhang Chaoyong and Wang Youjun as sacrificial officials to offer sacrifices to the late king at all times.
He also exempted Beishanbao from taxes for ten years and provided compensation to the villagers.
The folks and old friends were naturally overjoyed after having feasted for so many days and being exempted from taxes for ten years. When Wu Nian left, everyone was reluctant to leave.
But there is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever.
This morning. Wu Nian and his son got on the carriage and slowly left Beishan Fort with the officials and surrounded by guards.
A large number of villagers and old friends came to see the king off.
So far.
All procedures for ascending to the throne are over. Wu Nian began to attack Huanglong Mansion, intending to take back the entire Liaodong from the Mongolian people.
