Chapter 1116 Welcome to the new king!
People say natural disasters and man-made disasters. In fact, in this era, man-made disasters are sometimes more serious than natural disasters. The most serious of man-made disasters is military disasters.
Once there is a military disaster in a certain place, it is normal for the family to be destroyed. What is even more frightening is that the murder of these soldiers is not illegal, and you have no place to reason.
The Southwest Army is also a soldier, and it is a soldier of this era. Their military discipline is far less strict than that of later generations. When they enter the capital, it is inevitable that someone will do something wrong. In just one night, Li Xin received twenty or thirty soldiers from the Southwest Army. Bad news.
Although the Southwest Army was generally abiding by the rules, Li Xin still strictly dealt with these soldiers who intruded upon the people. There were twenty-seven people in total, and twenty-four of them died under the military law of the Southwest Army.
That night, Li Xin returned to his residence in the Marquis of Jing'an. The next morning, before dawn, he got up early and went to the south of the capital.
The city gate is waiting.
It wasn't just him who went to the Nancheng Gate and others alone. At this time, all the officials in the capital, except for Shangshutai's house Wei and another Zaifu, did not arrive, and all the officials above the fourth rank were almost 80%. .
These people are all here to welcome the new king.
Now the situation in the capital is very clear. Emperor Yuan Zhao has already issued the edict of abdication. As long as the new emperor arrives in the capital, the throne will be handed over. At this time, few people will have trouble with their future. After all, there are not many ruthless people who can rely on a little integrity to put a family in danger.
Even if Li Xin is in the position of one hundred officials in the capital, under this situation, he will obediently come out to welcome the new king. Those who have the backbone and integrity are respectable, but those who bow to life and reality are also understandable.
In fact, the vast majority of people in this world are the latter, even if they were not when they were young, they will be slowly honed into this shape by society when they get older.
Coincidentally, among these high-ranking court officials, few young people exist.
Li Xin was wearing the imperial uniform of the Taifu, and stood at the gate of the South Gate of the capital. It was about Chen Shi when an apricot-colored carriage slowly drove from the official road to the South Gate.
The Sixth Prince was previously in Luzhou City, which is to the west of the capital. It should have been greeted at the West City Gate, but the West City Gate had been indiscriminately bombed by the Southwest Army for several months. It is not suitable to welcome the new king, so the place was chosen at the South City Gate.
The carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the city, Li Xin stepped forward and lifted the curtain of the car, pulling the sixth prince Ji Ying down in the car.
When he was kicked out of the capital by Emperor Yuan Zhao five years ago, he was less than six years old. Now that five years have passed, this sixth prince is only eleven years old.
The eleven-year-old boy, even though he was a little precocious, was still a little ignorant. After he was led off the carriage by Li Xin, he looked at dozens of officials dressed in Zhu Zi, looked at Li Xin in confusion, and asked. : "Gu... Uncle?"
Li Xin patted his hand lightly and said calmly, "Don't panic, Your Highness, these people are all here to greet His Highness."
After finishing speaking, General Li glanced at these ministers and said, "Everyone, the sixth prince has arrived, what are you still doing?"
As soon as Li Xin said these words, these talents woke up like a dream, knelt on the ground one after another, and bowed to the sixth prince: "Chen wait, I have seen Your Highness..."
The sound is not very neat, because there are some dissonant sounds in it.
Some people didn't call "His Royal Highness", but directly called "His Majesty".
At this time, Ji Ying still only has the identity of a sixth prince, and there is not even a prince on her body. Kneeling to greet her is already a slap in the face, calling "Your Majesty", that is, no shame.
Li Xin frowned slightly, glanced at these people, but did not speak.
It is worth mentioning that at this time, Li Xin was holding the arm of the sixth prince, which means that he and the sixth prince were standing together. These people bowed down to the sixth prince, that is, they were kneeling to Li Xin. Facing this kind of scene, Li Da. The general did not mean to evade.
Although the sixth prince is a royal family, he has never seen the "world" very much. Under such a scene, the whole person is a little stunned. ."
Hearing this sentence, these civil and military ministers got up from the ground together, and their voices were neat.
"I'll wait...Congratulations, Your Highness, for returning to Beijing."
In a stupefied state, the Sixth Prince, accompanied by Li Xin, walked along Desheng Street from Nancheng Gate to the Imperial City. At this time, there were still corpses left in some places in the capital, but they were the main road of the capital. The Victory Street, and the entire imperial city has been cleaned up, and it is as magnificent as before.
Just like that, the Sixth Prince, surrounded by his ministers, came to the main hall of Weiyang Palace in the imperial city.
At this time, the **** Xiao Zheng who declared the decree above the imperial steps was no longer the great **** Xiao Zheng, but the **** Xiao Huai, who was less than thirty years old. This **** Xiao had already taken off his purple clothes and put on a bright red Clothes, standing on the imperial steps holding the imperial decree, with a high-pitched voice.
The conscientious people in the court hall have noticed Xiao Huai's red clothes and the change of power in the inner court.
The imperial edict read out by Xiao Huai is very simple, to the effect that the emperor Yuanzhao officially abdicated, and after three days, the sixth prince, Ji Ying, will be enthroned in the Weiyang Palace.
According to the general succession process, three days is a bit too impatient, but because there is no emperor, the new emperor does not need to guard the spirit of the previous emperor, so three days is reasonable.
Ji Ying, the sixth prince, was pushed to the throne of Weiyang Palace with a confused face, accepted the worship of hundreds of officials, and became the future emperor of Dajin.
During this process, Emperor Yuanzhao never showed up, and no one knew where he went.
According to the rules, after three days, the emperor Yuanzhao should hand over the seal of the emperor to the new emperor, so that the people in the world will not gossip too much. In this situation, it is still unknown whether the emperor Yuanzhao will cooperate.
But none of that matters.
Gong Yangshu died in the hands of Li Xin, and his reputation was already very bad. If Emperor Yuan Zhao did not cooperate, it would not matter if he forcibly ascended the throne.
It doesn't itch when there are too many lice.
Soon, the pilgrimage of all the officials was over, and they all left the Weiyang Palace. Not long after, there were only the sixth prince, who still didn't recover, and General Li, who was wearing a robe.
Ji Ying hurriedly ran down the imperial steps and came to Li Xin. The young man's face turned pale, and his voice trembled: "Uncle... What the **** is going on?"
He has been in Shanyin all these years. After being taken to the southwest by Li Xin, although he vaguely knew what would happen, he knew anything about the southwest army's eastward expedition, and he didn't know what actually happened.
Li Xin reached out and patted him on the shoulder, smiling slightly: "It's very simple, our battle is won, and you will be the emperor."
Ji Ying was in a daze, suddenly looked up at Li Xin, and shrank: "Uncle... What about the imperial brother?"
Li Xin squinted his eyes and said nothing.
Ji Ying was startled by Li Xin's expression, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and said in a trembling voice, "Uncle, don't kill me..."
Li Xin stretched out his hand to support the future emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, frowning slightly.
"Don't worry, I promised you."
"It won't kill you."
