Li Ze nodded and said,
"Well, sir, this is a wonderful move. Let the whole city come to watch the ceremony together. This is an unprecedented event. Having them witness and spread the news can also prove the legitimacy of our new king.
Moreover, the new king's enthronement in Weihu County can also prove that this is the land of Longxing, making our soldiers, horses and people more proud and more aware of their identity.
In this way, the people will definitely join the army and support the army enthusiastically. If they are united as one, there will be no need to worry about defeating the enemy. "
"Okay, that's settled, what else is left to do now?"
"My lord, I still need to send you the new king's residence and the reign name. Logically speaking, since the new king's residence is not in the capital, the palace must be rebuilt."
As soon as Li Ze finished speaking, Ouyang Ming immediately said,
"No, no, no, absolutely not, never build a palace, this is not allowed!
First, although I don’t know much about political affairs, I also know that it is extremely difficult for a county alone to support an army of 300,000 people. We don’t have much money in the treasury now, so how can we pay for it? If you have money, build a new palace.
Second, after the new king ascends the throne, he must set an example of diligence and frugality for the people. How can he take the lead in building a palace for enjoyment?
Third, once we build a palace in Weihu County and call the new palace a palace, then what is the palace in the capital?
Do the people think that we are just moving the capital to Weihu County and establishing a peaceful court? This is not good for the people of the world.
On the contrary, we do not build a palace, but still let the new emperor live in the governor's mansion. Firstly, he can handle affairs nearby, and secondly, he can let the people all over the world see that a good and frugal emperor does not even have a palace after he ascends the throne. , can only live in a county magistrate's house to work.
In this way, it can further demonstrate our determination to recapture the capital, so that the people of the world can share the same hatred. Even if it is to allow Emperor Dafeng to take over the capital and live in the palace as soon as possible, they will work together and be conducive to unity.
It's just that during this period, the new king has to live in the governor's mansion for a while. Everything will be fine after he takes over the capital. "
The sixth prince said quickly,
"No grievance, no grievance. I have lived in Dongyuan for more than half a year, and I have long been used to it. Mr. Ouyang is right, this should be done.
Special treatment in special times. Now is a difficult period for starting a business, and that's how it should be.
No matter how aggrieved I am, am I more aggrieved than those people who don’t have enough to eat and whose houses are leaky? Are there still those refugees who have left their homes and have no fixed place to live and feel aggrieved? "
"His Highness understands the righteousness so well, I can rest assured that His Highness will definitely become a wise king in the future."
Ouyang Ming said respectfully.
Nie Chen nodded and said,
"Okay, that's the last thing. Decide on the year name. What should our Dafeng's new year name be?"
Ouyang Ming smiled and said,
"We have to ask our Lord Li about this matter. Lord Li is well-educated, well-read in poetry and books, and has been an official in the capital all year round. He knows the history of the country best, and it should be Lord Li who gives his opinion."
Li Ze smiled and said modestly,
"How can I dare to claim to be a rich scholar? I am nowhere near as good as the gentlemen here.
Now that Mr. Ouyang said it, the old minister boldly said it.
According to the ancestral history and inheritance of the country, the current reign name is Jianping, so the next generation's country name must be Anqing.
But the old minister felt that the name of Anqing was... inappropriate. Anqing means the year of Shoucheng, which means that the world is peaceful and the people are happy.
But it is obvious that the coming years will not be a year of peace in a short time, but a year of abundant martial virtue, and the whole country will be at war.
In order to cope with the coming war, and to show the attitude of our new court, the reign name must also be full of martial virtue, so as to show our determination to suppress the traitors inside and the enemies outside!
Therefore, there should be the word "武" in the new year's name.
But now, a traitor to the country has usurped the throne. When the country is in danger, I support the new king, reorganize the government, and put down the rebellion, which should be called peace of mind.
Jing means pacification, and difficulty means national calamity, which means putting down rebellion and quelling national calamity.
Therefore, the new year's name should be Wu Jingcai.
After the gale has unified, the world is at peace, and there is no more war, we decide to take the peaceful route. If we want to change the reign name, we can discuss it at that time. "
After listening to Li Ze's words, Nie Chen couldn't help but admire him and said,
"Mr. Li is really a man of great knowledge. I admire him. Your Highness, what do you think of the new name Wu Jing?"
The new year's name is the reign name of the new king, so of course the new king has to make the decision.
The Sixth Prince also nodded and said,
"Very good, very good, that's it. This Mr. Li is also a Beijing official? How come I haven't seen you before?"
Li Ze quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said,
"Reporting to your highness, I am just a minor official. I was previously a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs and was only in the fifth rank."
"Oh, I see, I understand. Fortunately, a great talent like Mr. Li did not stay in the capital, otherwise he would have become a dead soul under the sword of King Zhennan.
It is a great blessing for the country that you can come here. "
The Sixth Prince sighed.
Nie Chen stood up and said,
"Okay, this is how things are settled for now. Everyone, go and get busy. First, settle the matter of the new king's accession to the throne. Then we will discuss military affairs and customize the strategy for the subsequent war based on the enemy's movements. When the time comes, we will also discuss the military affairs. I want you marshals and generals to think more about this.
Liang Peng, Wushuang, Wang Hao, after you go back, think more about how we should fight in the future battles. "
"As you command!"
At this moment, Zhou Ping, Ouyang Ming, and Li Ze all went to draft edicts and prepare for the new king's accession to the throne.
Liang Pengning Wushuang and others also went back to the military camp to discuss military matters.
This matter still feels very strange to Liang Pengning Wushuang and the others.
In the past, they were all part of the army of Nie Chen, a separatist force. To put it bluntly, they were just local warlords.
But now, they have transformed into the emperor's royal division and the most authentic army. This is absolutely a complete change for the army's beliefs.
Especially for Ning Wushuang and other surrendered generals, they were still a little uncomfortable in the past when they betrayed King Anton and took refuge with Nie Chen, carrying some infamy, but now it is different. They have abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, and they are the emperor's masters. , is the genuine army most loyal to Gale.
There is nothing more upright than them. Let’s see who dares to call them traitors in the future.
Weng Qiuchan also got busy. First, she helped Eunuch Huang choose a room to stay in Dongyuan, so that he could serve the new emperor nearby and serve as a personal eunuch.
Then he took Li Lian to the city to choose a house and buy furniture and so on.
Under normal circumstances, as long as someone comes to seek refuge with Nie Chen, Weng Qiuchan will arrange the logistics clearly and solve the worries of Nie Chen and those who seek refuge. She is truly a good housekeeper.
