A few days after Qin Daoren and the others entered Beijing, it was the auspicious day selected by the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Tianjian. On this day, Sixiu was in the palace, accepted the call of long live the mountain from all the officials, went to heaven, earth and ancestors to inherit the throne and ascended the throne as emperor.
The entire process of ascending the throne went smoothly without any accidents. On the one hand, Si Xiu's identity is displayed here.
He was originally the most orthodox heir to the throne, not to mention that he also had the support of Qin Shaoyou, Lu Bing and many highly respected ministers in the court, so naturally no one would jump out to oppose him.
Even the princes who had been elected before came forward to explain that they had no disobedience and did not know in advance that anyone would recommend them.
Behind the scenes, they hated the officials who recommended them. This is obviously roasting them on the fire!
If Emperor Jianwu was still in power, he would not care about the explanations of these princes, and would directly send people from the editing factory to lock them up in the capital, test the medicine for him, and help him refine elixirs.
Fortunately, Sixiu was different from Emperor Jianwu. Not only did he not pursue these princes, he also personally wrote an edict to appease these princes, telling them not to worry about these things, and that he would not blame them for these things, and told them to help the local government develop people's livelihood and live with the people.
This matter quickly spread inside and outside the court. Some officials felt that Sixiu was a generous and benevolent king.
Some officials also felt that by doing this, he was trying to win people's hearts. But whether it is true benevolence or fake kindness, at least Sixiu is willing to pretend, which shows that he still has a bottom line.
After experiencing Emperor Jianwu, a king with a bottom line is a good thing for both the people and officials like them.
The second reason why the enthronement ceremony went smoothly is that order has been restored in the capital with the efforts of Qin Shaoyou, Lu Bing, Xu Jianzheng, An Mutong, Xue Qingshan and others.
The remnants of the Black Lotus Sect, as well as the people that Emperor Jianwu had cultivated and won over over the years, were all wiped out by them.
Without these people, the coronation ceremony would be more than half successful. Not to mention, on the day of the enthronement ceremony, Qin Shaoyou and the others made full arrangements and went all out to ensure it.
Under such circumstances, Sixiu's enthronement ceremony naturally went smoothly and no accidents occurred.
Soon, the news of the new emperor's accession to the throne was announced to the world. Many people feel that the bad days are finally coming to an end.
Especially after they heard that Emperor Jianwu was not abdicating but Bintian, many people went to the temple to offer incense and fulfill their vows.
In the past days, they looked forward to the violent death of the faint king every day, and now this wish has come true.
If they weren't afraid that the officials would catch him, they would all want to cheer and celebrate. As soon as Si Xiu ascended the throne, he abolished the Cultivation Guidelines, Cultivation Tax, and many other exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes that Emperor Jianwu had set for him to cultivate and become an immortal.
The people of the Great Xia Dynasty even applauded. They all felt that they had welcomed a wise king. The chaos of the Great Xia Dynasty was finally coming to an end.
They, the poor people, finally have hope in their lives. They no longer have to rely on selling their daughters to make a living.
Not only the common people think so, but many ambitious officials in the court also think so. As Si Xiu spread his words, they went to the public forum one after another and proposed a series of policies to recuperate with the people and lighten the corvee and reduce taxes. They wanted to turn the Xia Dynasty, which was riddled with holes by Emperor Jianwu in the past few decades, , a quick repair.
For a time, everything seemed to be moving in a good direction. However, an accident happened.
Early that morning, not long after the city gates of the capital were opened, a man wearing a fur coat and a mink hat, who looked like a border soldier from northern Xinjiang, appeared on the official road riding a fast horse.
From a distance, he held up the token in his hand and shouted to the city gate guards: "There is an emergency military situation. Get out of the city gate quickly." Seeing this, the city gate guards immediately evacuated the people waiting to enter the city and let them go. A road was opened and the soldier was released into the city.
After the rebel soldier rushed into the city, he ignored the city's regulations prohibiting horseback riding without reason and went straight to the Ministry of War.
Along the way, people kept shouting loudly: "Emergency military situation, get out of the way! Get out of the way!" People on the road along the way hurriedly moved to both sides to avoid being hit by the galloping horses.
This border soldier was delivering urgent military information. If he was hit, even if he didn't die on the spot, he would be held accountable afterwards.
It's impossible to make a fortune, and it might even end up bankrupt. When the soldiers conveying military information passed by at high speed, people on the road gathered together again and began to discuss curiously.
"What happened here?"
"Looking at the way this military master is dressed, he looks like he came from the north."
"What happened to the north? Are there bandits who have fled to the north? Or are there bandits from Beidi?"
"I haven't heard of any rogues going north. Besides, they are not stupid. Going to the north to meet the border troops? Isn't that asking for death? As for Beidi, it's not the time to raid the grass valley, right? Why did they suddenly raise troops? "Everyone was talking to each other, and the discussion was very intense. It was as if Sun Wu had been reincarnated in the world, but he saw a fast horse galloping towards him.
This time, the soldiers on horseback were wearing hats and light clothes, and spoke with a southern accent, but they were also shouting: "Emergency military situation, get out of the way quickly!" Everyone hurriedly moved to both sides. hide.
This time I gained experience and the speed was much faster than last time. By the time the soldiers from southern Xinjiang flew past, the curiosity and speculation on people's faces had turned into panic.
"Looking at the way this military master is dressed, it seems he is from southern Xinjiang?"
"Yes, it's from southern Xinjiang. I went to the south to do business, and people there all spoke with this accent."
"Not only are there changes in the north, but there is also something going on in the south?"
"What's going on? Next, will there be emergency information coming from the east and west?"
"The Daxia Dynasty has finally been stable for a few days. Is something going to happen again?"
"I heard that the current emperor forced the late emperor to death. Although the late emperor was fatuous, he was his biological father after all... Could it be that this caused God to punish him?"
"Shh! Shut up! Are you saying this, don't you want to live?" Although these people had a way of spreading rumors, there was one situation where they really got it right.
In the following time, soldiers from the Daxia border rushed into Beijing one after another, bringing urgent military information.
The clothes and accents of these soldiers are all different, from the southeast to the northwest. After receiving these urgent military information, the Ministry of War did not dare to neglect.
The Minister of War rushed to the palace immediately and reported to Sixiu. After Sixiu heard this, he immediately sent someone to recruit Qin Shaoyou, Lu Bing and others into the palace to discuss it together.
