The form of the Han Dynasty's court meetings was somewhat similar to the parliamentary system of later Western countries.
First, the emperor or a certain important minister would propose a proposal, and then all the ministers present would discuss the proposal and express their opinions.
When expressing one's views, one needs to stand up and even move around freely to discuss one's views in front of everyone in the hall.
If other people have any questions about the minister who expresses their views, they can ask questions, but they cannot stand up and can only sit down. This is called sitting and discussing.
After the minister finished explaining his views or answering other people's questions, he returned to his seat and sat down.
Then the next minister with a different opinion stood up and expressed his opinion.
If there are too many differences over a proposal, it is not unusual for several or even dozens of consecutive meetings to be held for debate.
However, unlike the discussion of bills in later parliaments, the ministers in the palace must maintain etiquette and cannot spit or throw things, such as shoes.
Well, the shoes were taken off when entering the temple, but there were still other things.
For example, the futon under my buttocks and the wat board in my hand.
We must convince people with reason, we must be civilized and civilized!
The Han represents the most advanced cultural direction and is a beacon to the world. He cannot be as unreasonable and ignorant of etiquette as the Hu Yi.
Feng Junhou also secretly suspected that taking off his sword and taking off his shoes before entering the palace was not only to express respect for the imperial power.
In order to prevent the military officials of the Han Dynasty from defeating others, they would show their level of the six skills of a gentleman to the emperor, draw their swords and cut each other.
Of course, the court meeting and later parliamentary systems are only slightly similar, and they are essentially different.
For example, the opinions of the chairman of the parliament (the emperor) and party bosses (the prime minister, the great general, the great general, and other powerful officials) carry extremely high weight.
Fortunately, Feng Junhou's first court appearance was not to discuss proposals or anything like that.
In other words, there is only one proposal today, and it is a proposal that has been decided long ago and can only be announced by the emperor: unified reward.
It has been a long time since the Han Dynasty had promoted officials on a large scale.
Returning to the old capital was achieved only by loyal and righteous people who forgot about themselves, worked hard, shed blood and sacrificed their lives.
For both emotion and reason, the great Han will reward them.
It's just that this edict is a bit difficult to understand - for Feng Junhou, that's it.
"On the tenth day of the tenth month of the first year of Yanxi, the emperor of the Han Dynasty issued an edict: In the past, Xiaoling was in peace, and civil strife broke out. The late emperor, in order to revitalize the Han Dynasty, started in Zhuojun and fought in all directions..."
Listening to the visitor above reciting the imperial decree that he half understood, Feng Junhou forcibly resisted the urge to yawn, and quietly moved his buttocks bit by bit with micro-manipulation that was unnoticeable.
Let your heels, which have begun to tingle and numb, relax a little.
"...The world is boiling, my destiny is Yin worry, and it is difficult to cut the wind. With the blessing of the bright spirit above, and the assistance of the heroes below, I have cleared the county and inherited the precious history. How can one person alone be able to achieve this? At this time, we share the funds. Its power, the world's peace and exclusive enjoyment of its benefits, are all dedicated to this..."
Unable to bear it any longer, Feng Junhou did not open his mouth, but put his cheeks away and yawned to shut up.
This book is nothing. After all, I don’t have enough sleep. It’s normal to yawn.
What Feng Junhou didn't expect was that with this yawn, tears began to fill his eyes and were about to fall.
I blinked hard, trying to hold back the tears, but the faster I blinked, the harder my eyes could hold back the tears.
Done!
Feng Junhou didn't dare to blink any more, and kept his eyes wide open. He could delay it as long as he could, hoping that the visitor could finish reciting the imperial edict quickly and take the opportunity to wipe away his tears.
As a result, his expression looked extremely serious, which coincided with the current occasion.
What Feng Junhou didn't expect was that the visitor above had just finished reading the opening chapter and officially entered the topic:
"...Jia Yong's achievements are simple in my heart, and it is appropriate to entrust them with meritorious titles: the prime minister is bright, dedicated and dedicated, posthumously named Zhongwuhou, and he is honored in a temple..."
"Bata!"
Feng Junhou's eyes could not bear the accumulation of tears, and two large tears fell quietly.
The emperor, who was sitting at the top, saw that Feng Junhou, who had always looked serious, suddenly shed tears when he heard that he was posthumous to his father-in-law, which made him confused.
Then he suddenly realized that Feng Junhou missed his father-in-law too much and couldn't help himself.
Looking at the generals and ministers who were praying, the little fat man's originally happy heart felt like he was in a trance for some reason.
While I felt a burst of sadness, I also felt a little emotional:
My brother-in-law is so affectionate.
"Therefore, General Tong Lang (namely Pang Tong), the military advisor, sacrificed his life to become a benevolent person, and was given the posthumous title Jinghou; the former general Yu, who was brave and righteous, was given the posthumous title Zhuanghou; the former right general flew and was defeated by ten thousand men, and was posthumously named Huanhou; the former left general Chao "The generals in the past who were loyal and brave were given the posthumous title of Marquis Gang. The generals in the past who were loyal and obedient were given the posthumous title of Marquis of Shunping."
"Yu, Fei, Yun, Chao, and Zhong, these five followed the late emperor, founded the country, and made many meritorious deeds. They are called the Five Tiger Generals."
Tears flowed down, and my eyes felt less uncomfortable, but I couldn't wipe them with my hands. Now it was my face's turn to feel uncomfortable.
The most important thing is that these two big tears flowed to both sides of the nose and stopped...
The so-called tears and tears flow together because when you shed tears, some of the tears often enter the nasal cavity. The longer the tears stay in the eyes, the more nasal mucus will be.
Feng Junhou is in this situation now. The tears in his eyes have been accumulated for too long and finally flowed down, but his nose is about to flow out.
You can't make too many movements, but you can still sniff.
It's just that it's okay if I don't inhale. With one inhale, even the tears remaining on both sides of the nose are sucked into the nose.
Although this inhalation relieved the discomfort, after just a few breaths, I felt that there was more liquid in my nose ready to flow out.
Unable to bear it anymore, I sniffed hard again.
It was just that the sound of inhaling was a bit loud, which caused several ministers nearby to look over subconsciously.
Then I saw Feng Junhou crying, seemingly unable to control his emotions.
Damn it!
Why did you cry when you were promoted to a higher position?
It's just that people who can sit in the hall by virtue of their ability, especially those sitting at the front, naturally have their minds spinning faster than ordinary people.
Just like Jiang Wan, who was sitting diagonally opposite, he was greatly shocked when he saw Feng Junhou's appearance:
"Why did the princes and princes do this when they heard that these deceased loyal ministers were posthumously honored?"
"Could he be commemorating the Prime Minister? Or maybe it's Mr. Guan? After all, he is the son-in-law of the Guan family..."
Jiang Wan had just seen that the prime minister was posthumous, and he was still happy.
Seeing Feng Junhou's appearance at this time, he suddenly felt ashamed:
No matter how beautiful the posthumous title is, how can the dead be resurrected? The king values love and righteousness, but we are far inferior to that.
There are also those with evil intentions. For example, Wei Yan, who was sitting next to Feng Junhou, glanced sideways at Feng Junhou and frowned:
A great general in the army, countless people have died at your hands. Why do you have to cry when you should be happy? What about mourning?
He is just a big boss, how can he have the thoughts of those civil servants?
General Zhendong, who was muttering viciously in his heart that Feng Junhou was mourning, raised his head again and was startled when he saw the admiring glances of the important ministers opposite him towards Feng Junhou.
Is mourning worth viewing this way?
Um?
Crying in mourning?
Um!
Cry in mourning!
No matter how slow his reaction was, General Zhendong realized it at this time. He couldn't help but take a breath, and a word came to his mind:
Clever words? !
I only saw "Qiaoyan" before, but now I actually see "Lingse"!
Regardless of what everyone is thinking, the visitor has already continued reading:
"Duxiang Hou Yan (cavalry general), Marquis of Ruyang County in Jin Dynasty; Zhenyuan general class, moved to left guard general; former general Zhi, moved to right guard general; Zhendong general Yan, moved to left hussar general; Zhendong general General Yong, moved to the right as General of Hussars, Marquis of Pingcheng County in Jin Dynasty, and became the Protector of the Central Government."
Although they were mentally prepared, many people still paid attention to Feng Piao once again after hearing Feng Yong's bestowal.
When Kankan was just thirty years old, he rose to the position of General of the Right Hussars and became one of the top leaders in the Han Dynasty.
If coupled with the heavy power he holds in his hands - not to mention Ping Shangshu - the Zhongduhu has the power to oversee the Chinese and foreign military affairs.
After all this calculation, this person is the Han Dynasty's most important official, bar none.
Looking at Feng Junhou's young face, some people even thought of the prime minister who came out to assist the late emperor at the age of 27 and proposed "Longzhong Dui".
Almost everyone had a thought:
Prime Minister... there is a successor!
Is Your Majesty following the example of the late Emperor and the Prime Minister in the relationship between a monarch and his ministers, and is he going to continue the story of a monarch and his ministers with Feng Qiaoqi?
God's will?
"General Suo conquered the East, General moved to Zhendong, Marquis Han Ting of the Jin Dynasty..."
Feng Junhou glanced at Guan Xing, who was sitting next to him.
Coincidentally, Guan Xing also silently looked at Feng Qiaoqi.
"When the general who conquered the south arrived (that is, when Chen arrived), he moved to Zhennan. General Wei, who conquered the west, moved to the east to conquer, and was the Marquis of Jin Wating. When he joined the army in Guang, he led the general to conquer the south, and he was the Marquis of Jin Guannei. The prefect of Jiangzhou, Yi, moved to General Annan..."
Then another wave of eyeballs looked at Feng Junhou.
It is rumored that Feng Junhou has four generals, Feng Linhuo, under his command.
In the battle in Guanzhong, Guan Suo's fine cavalry galloped like the wind.
In the battle of Xiaoguan, Zhao Guang's cavalry invaded like fire.
In the battle at the street pavilion, Zhang Yi's sword advanced like a forest.
I just don’t know who will be the last one standing still?
But it doesn't matter who it is. Even if there is no one, the three people who moved to the general today are enough to prove that Feng Qiaoqi is indeed worthy of being the number one man in the Han army.
First, he pursued his posthumous title, and then he went to the generals who had been fighting abroad in recent years and had made great contributions to the Han Dynasty.
Next, there are the bodyguards, such as Feng Junhou's two brothers-in-law.
Guan Xing moved to assist the general of Han Dynasty and led the Central Guard Army. Zhang Bao moved to General Anhan to lead the Central Guard Army.
(The status of Fuhan and Anhan may not be lower than that of the Four Zhengs, and may even be equal to the Four Towns. The author is just imagining it, so don’t blame the party.)
Then another wave of eyes looked at Feng Junhou.
The Feng family is probably the most powerful person and the first relative of the Han Dynasty, right?
I'm afraid the Empress Dowager's mother's family, the Wu family, can't compare with it.
As for the Queen's mother's family, the Xiahou family...
Wasn't Xiahou Ba captured?
I saw many people looking at my brother-in-law with complicated eyes.
Guan Xing and Zhang Bao:?
When we both get promoted, what do you think he does?
Next, there are people like Dong Yun, Fei Yi, Wang Ping, Ju Fu, Shi Bao, Liu Yin, Li Qiu, Wang Xun, etc., each with different rewards.
I don't know when Feng Junhou's eyes and nose had dried up, and the visitor just finished reading the imperial edict.
Feng Junhou breathed a sigh of relief, then quietly moved his buttocks, feeling that his feet were completely numb.
Xindao was finally ready to accept the seal. Unexpectedly, the visitor took out another imperial edict:
"On the tenth day of the tenth month of the first year of Yanxi, the emperor of the Han Dynasty issued an edict saying: I have been entrusted by the late emperor to not give up, so that I can ascend to the great throne. I heard Ping Ji's voice and paid the entrustment..."
Feng Junhou was startled, and then suddenly became furious.
Only your mother!
Pretty!
Am I pretty?
Feng Junhou stared at the visitor standing above him with bulging eyes, and forced his buttocks to lift slightly, so that his stinging legs could get some relief.
He couldn't help but curse loudly in his heart: Is it over yet? It’s not over yet!
"Hereby is the Hou family of Zhang Xia, who can be canonized as Lord of Pingyi; General Zuo's wife of the right hussar, canonized as Lord Xiuwu; general right's wife of the right hussar, can be canonized as Lord Shunde..."
This imperial edict didn't say much, but the impact it brought was even stronger than before.
the reason is simple.
This is a knighthood decree for women.
It is easy to understand that Zhang Xiahou's family was granted the title of Lord of Pingyi. After all, it is the queen's mother's family, and according to the convention, it can indeed be granted a title.
It’s just that knighting Mrs. Feng Qiaoqi is...
Well, the queen's sister can also be knighted.
Over the years, Feng Xiuqi's right wife has gained quite a reputation in the upper class circles. In addition to being in charge of the royal family's internal funds, she has also been Feng Xiuqi's secretary.
I heard that Feng Junhou relied heavily on him.
But Mrs. Zuo Feng Guanshi...
Although some people were surprised and shocked, the expressions of the ministers sitting in front soon returned to calm after experiencing the initial surprise.
Well, Mrs. Zuo Feng Guan is indeed qualified to be knighted.
Compared with conferring a title on a woman, a man's face is more important.
As for those who did not know the inside story, such as the officials standing outside the palace and near the door, they finally couldn't help but commotion when they heard that Feng Qiaoqi's two ladies were knighted at the same time.
How much does the emperor favor Feng Mingwen?
How could even his wife take advantage of him?
"quiet!"
The censor doctor responsible for maintaining order shouted sharply.
Fortunately, the visitor finished reading quickly and finally retreated.
Soon, this time it was Guang Luxun's turn to come up. At the same time, another visitor came to Liu Yan, asked Liu Yan to come out of the queue, and said, "Bow down!"
Liu Yan quickly stood up and bowed to His Highness. Guang Luxun stepped forward, raised the policy book and read:
"The imperial edict was issued to make Yan the Marquis of Ruyang County..."
After reading the policy book, the visitors standing aside praised: "Goodbye!"
Liu Yan did what he said.
At this time, a minister came in from outside the palace holding a seal ribbon and handed it to the imperial censor.
The imperial censor came forward again holding the seal and ribbon, stood on the east side, and awarded it to Liu Yan.
The visitor shouted again: "Three obeisances."
Liu Yan paid his respects again.
After the pause, the visitors shouted:
"Yan Xin was granted the title of Marquis of Ruyang County, and the Marquis of Duxiang County was removed. Thank you!"
This was to inform all officials in the court of Liu Yan's new title.
In order to avoid standing outside and not being able to see the officials in the palace and not knowing what title Liu Yan holds now.
When the time comes to go to court, if someone calls someone Duxiang Hou, it will offend someone.
The visitors shouted again: "The emperor is in good health."
Liu Yan quickly thanked him, then returned to his seat and sat down holding his seal ribbon.
After reading this set of procedures, Feng Junhou calculated the time and suddenly felt a little trembling:
"In this way, just those who can come to accept the reward can spend a whole day, let alone noon, I'm afraid it will be at night..."
ps: Of course, the etiquette for large-scale promotions is not that simple. The author has simplified a lot of the process.
