Chapter 601: The Year of Da Zhao

When Yang Ehuang heard that Li Chongjiu wanted to give Yang Guang a posthumous title, he said: "When the posthumous posthumous law first started, there were only beautiful posthumous posthumous titles, ordinary posthumous posthumous titles, and no evil posthumous posthumous titles. Later, because of the tyranny of King Li of Zhou, later generations designated his posthumous title as Li. Although my father lost his destiny, his posthumous posthumous titles were too bad. Xiaojiu, what posthumous title do you want to give your father?"

Yang was indeed too much. Li Chongjiu remembered that after Chen Houzhu died of illness, Yang Guang gave him the posthumous title Yang. Li Yuan added Yang Guang's character Yang. Isn't this a slap in the face? He returned the posthumous title of Chen Houzhu who surrendered to Yang Guang in the past to Yang Guang intact.

Li Chongjiu pondered for a while and said, "I decided to give your father and emperor a posthumous title of Wu. What do you think?"

Yang Ehuang heard this and said in a little surprise: "The word Wu is a beautiful posthumous title. After all, the father has lost the world. I think as long as the posthumous title is fair, my mother and I will be content."

"Don't judge heroes by success or failure," Li Chongjiu said, "Strong and upright is called Wu; powerful and powerful enemy virtue is called Wu; conquering disasters and chaos is called Wu; punishing the people and overcoming it is called Wu; boasting a lot of ambition is called Wu. Your father destroyed the Chen State, defeating Tuyuhun, and subjugating the Turks. Although there was a defeat in Liaodong later, he still did not lose the word Wu. In my Great Zhao, the people would call your father the Emperor Wu."

"Xiao Jiu." Yang Ehuang lowered his head and showed a happy expression on his face.

Li Chongjiu's imperial ship finally arrived at the city of Luoyang against Luoshui.

Luoyang is located in the yang of Luoshui. In ancient times, it was said that the south of the mountain is called Yang, and the north of the mountain is called Yin; the north of the water is Yang, and the south of the water is Yin, which means Luoyang, which is the north of the Luoshui.

When I passed by boat, I saw that the Luo River was all over the north and south, and the shores were all new fields, and the pine seedlings were green. After the war between the Tang and Zheng, the vicinity of Luoyang gradually recovered and the people settled down again. The land near Luoyang was all private property of princes and ministers, and it was not easy for the people to seek a field. As early as the Warring States Period, Su Qin had said that I had two hectares of land for Luoyang, so how could I wear the seal of the six kingdoms?

Su Qin is from Luoyang. Because his family did not have fields close to Luoyang City, he was determined to study and make a name for himself.

When he was approaching Luoyang, Li Chongjiu saw two tall buildings, one on the left and one on the right, facing the Luo River. The gate was as high as five floors and stood majestic. Li Chongjiu took the boat and the people on the left and right, carrying fresh vegetables, and went straight to the north and south cities of Luoyang for sale.

When the soldiers checked the soldiers at the Water Gate checkpoint learned that King Zhao had arrived in person, they quickly opened the gate and let it go.

Li Chongjiu got off the boat near Tianjin Bridge. Because Li Chongjiu did not inform all officials that he had returned to Luoyang, he went straight into Luoyang Palace. But seeing all the lights and decorations in Luoyang Palace, he was obviously ready to go, just waiting for the throne ceremony to begin.

Wen Yanbo and others learned that Li Chongjiu had returned to the palace city, and immediately came from the Secretariat to pick him up and welcome Li Chongjiu to the Qianyang Palace.

Wen Yanbo and others visited Li Chongjiu and said, "Your Majesty, everything is in place for the throne ceremony. There are still many officials and titles, and the titles of concubines in the harem have not yet been enthroned. You can make a decision by your Majesty himself."

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "I understand. I will do this later."

Ji Chuan said, "Your Majesty's reign title has been drawn up several of them myself. Please check it out later."

Zhang Xuansu continued: "Your Majesty and all officials asked Your Majesty for the title of Your Majesty, and you have submitted it to the Secretariat for discussion. Now you are asking Your Majesty to take a look."

"Honorable title?" Li Chongjiu thought that if the posthumous title and temple title were all added after the monarch passed away, then the honorable title was called by the emperor when he was alive, and the people would not need to avoid it when they mentioned it.

Li Chongjiu knew that all officials gave him a title of honor. He asked urgently: "What title is it?"

Zhang Xuansu said immediately: "All officials are ignorant of death and honor, and Yuan Sheng is the wise and wise, Zhang Ren and Shen Cong Yi Dao is the great filial piety..."

"Enough." Li Chongjiu interrupted, "The title of honor is so long. What do you want the people to call me? Aren't the officials laughing at me?"

Zhang Xuansu hurriedly said, "I dare not. It's just that Your Majesty has achieved martial ethics. A few words are not enough to describe Your Majesty's greatness, so all the officials naturally hope that the longer the honorary title, the better."

Li Chongjiu slapped the dragon chair with his hand and said, "Tell all officials that there is no need to be told, and he will resign. No further discussions will be allowed in the future."

"No." Zhang Xuansu agreed.

Li Chongjiu said: "The people can't remember so many names, let's talk about adding honorary titles. By the way, Ji Chuan, you said that the year number has already been discussed, right?"

Ji Chuan said immediately: "Yes, Your Majesty is a document here, please browse it."

Li Chongjiu took the article and looked carefully, and said, "Taihe and benevolence are too mediocre, not enough to be my year name. Why is the word "innovation"?"

Zhang Xuansu said: "The word "reform" means "reform" the old and the old and the old. It comes from the Yichuan, the old and the old and the old and the new. It is what Wang Bojin, a scholar who was admitted to the new subject, said. When the minister saw it, he thought these two words were very good, so he copied them in it."

Ji Chuan also said: "I also think that the word "reform" is very good. Your Majesty establishes a new dynasty and removes the ills of the old dynasty, and the atmosphere of a new great cause is really a move to create the world. I think it is feasible."

Li Chongjiu looked at it and said, "I also think that I will copy these two words to the queen. All officials will see it. If there is no objection, I will use this as the year name."

Wen Yanbo said: "The Secretariat proposed to respect the elders as the Supreme Emperor." Speaking of this, Ji Chuan said: "Your Majesty has only Liu Taigong, the father of Emperor Gaozu of Han, since ancient times, and he was the Supreme Emperor before he ascended the throne. Now there are more Your Majesty."

Li Chongjiu did not agree immediately, but said, "I need to ask my father what he meant before making a decision."

At this time, Xue Wanshu said: "Your Majesty's ascension ceremony has been issued to all directions. Du Fuwei, Li Zitong, Lin Shihong, and Liang Shizhu all sent envoys to congratulate the ceremony. Chu Luo Khan sent 300 horses to congratulate him, Princess Yicheng sent 100 cowhides and 100 sheepskins. In addition, Meng Hai Gong came to Luoyang in person, and Xu Yuanlang also sent his son to come. King Silla sent two monks, Kongshan Yuanxiao, and led hundreds of Silla monks to congratulate him, and presented countless beef ginseng."

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "Okay, you are a guest from afar. Please let the Honglu Temple receive foreign guests."

When he was the king, in order to streamline the organization, the Honglu Temple was incorporated into the Ministry of Rites. Now Li Chongjiu set up the Honglu Temple.

Xue Wanshu said immediately: "Your Majesty, in addition to Silla, the Japanese country on the sea also sent an envoy, Odashi, and Ono girl came to pay homage to Your Majesty and congratulate Your Majesty ascend the throne."

"Water?" Li Chongjiu was stunned. Isn't this Japan?

"What are they doing? I don't seem to invite them! Besides, even if they heard that I have ascended the throne, Zhao State has been in contact with Japan for several months, and the Japanese envoys cannot come after hearing the news." Li Chongjiu said.

Zhang Xuansu said: "Your Majesty, the Japanese country sent an envoy to come, and there seems to be a reason to advise Your Majesty. This dog, Oda shovel, Ono girl, has been on missions to the previous dynasty in the past. When she comes again this time, there must be something old about it."

Li Chongjiu said: "It's easy to ask someone who is an official in the previous dynasty and ask someone who knows the secret of this matter. Just ask Pei Qing about this matter and immediately summon Pei Aiqing."

Soon Pei Ju went to Ganyang Palace and said to Li Chongjiu: "Old minister Pei Ju pays homage to Your Majesty."
