Chapter 109: Captured and Proclaimed Emperor

Seeing Meng Xing coming out of the inner room, Lin Daji stopped thinking about it and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Can Your Highness be inside?"

He was still scared until now and replied in a low voice: "The plan cannot keep up with the change quickly, and I almost made a fuss. Come with me, your highness is at Secretary Fu."

"What! I asked why I searched for it for most of the day and made such a big noise. Your Highness has not appeared yet. It turns out that he is lying in the gentle village at this moment!" Lin Daji smiled helplessly, and he also couldn't accept this answer. His Highness was not close to women in the past, but now it seems that he is just a self-control.

"Hurry, come with me." Lin Daji waved his hand and asked the soldiers to follow them. After a while, he joined Li Xiucheng's search team and 'welcome' Li Yunzhong in a mighty way.

"It's dawn for your Highness, it's time to get up!" Fu Shanxiang stood up and lay down in Li Yun's ear and called quietly.

Li Yunzhong, who had exercised all night last night, woke up and felt soreness in his waist. He pinched the back of his waist with his left hand and said, "Get my clothes quickly. Sanniang and the others are still waiting for me to have breakfast!"

Dongdong...

"I am going to meet your highness and ask your highness to change your clothes!"

Li Yunzhong complained to Fu Shanxiang: "What the hell is this? Shanxiang, please hide behind the screen. This person's mind is too dirty. I'm afraid he will spread the situation today everywhere."

Fu Shanxiang tied the last button for Li Yunzhong, smiled charmingly, turned around and walked behind the screen, held his breath, and listened with his ears.

"Come in, you...what do you mean? Let me go, do you want to rebel?" Li Yunzhong saw Meng Shangsheng and others come in and put on messy clothes on himself and put on a pearl hat. After resisting hard, he was subdued and immediately screamed and scolded him.

Meng Shangsheng smiled and said with apologies: "Your Highness, you don't have to call anymore. These are deaf and mute people, you can't hear or speak. We are also for your own good. Please forgive me!"

"What do you want to do? I have been sneaky since I returned to Nanjing. Now I dare to hijack me. You don't have to be so anxious to rebel. Now the Qing court has not been destroyed and the foreign barbarians have not yet been cleared, so I want to rob the fruits of the victory of the revolution? If I don't say it clearly, don't blame me for not thinking about brotherhood!" Li Yunzhong felt his arm hurt more and more, and he couldn't help but scold him loudly.

Fu Shanxiang heard the sound was wrong, ran out from behind the screen and cried, "What are you doing? Your Highness is as kind as a mountain to you. You have done such a traitor. Your conscience has been eaten by the dog!"

Lin Daji, who had just entered the room, saw Meng Xing's face turned red, and opened his mouth to speak but couldn't speak, so he hurriedly explained to him: "Grandmaster, I just advised Your Highness to ascend the throne, and there was no other intention."

Li Yunzhong was ridiculous and terrified. At this moment, he was suppressed by two strong men, one left and one right, and two people were wearing "coats" for him as if they were treating clowns. The newly-fledged hair was messy, and the shoes and socks were also replaced.

The most outrageous thing is that there is a scholar taking notes next to him!

"What are you doing? I, Li Yunzhong, never thought of becoming emperor. It's simply nonsense!"

Meng Shangsheng saw Li Yunzhong laughing, and his pressure was greatly reduced, and he also laughed softly: "By the way, that's it. Your Highness, you must refuse a few more times. These words will be recorded in history. The founding kings of ancient times also refused and agreed to be emperor."

Seeing that Li Yunzhong was "neatly dressed" and Lin Daji gestured at several deaf and mute people.

All the deaf and mute people nodded.

Li Yunzhong asked curiously: "What did you say to them?"

"I told them to 'help' His Highness to Chaoyang Hall, and not to stay in the middle."

"But I still have to go to the cottage for convenience!" Li Yunzhong was lifted out of the house. Several deaf and mute people quickly headed towards Chaoyang Palace despite Li Yunzhong's struggle.

"The emperor is here!" a ritual official shouted in front of the palace gate.

Just as Li Yunzhong was pressed to his seat by several deaf and mute people, the ministers below shouted:

"I, please come to the Emperor, please live the Emperor!"

The sound was loud and clear, which made Li Yun's ears numb.

Having reached this point, Li Yunzhong could only follow the flow and smiled bitterly: "All my beloveds are calm!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"I……"

The ritual official on the side reminded: "Since Your Majesty has ascended the throne, he should call himself 'I'."

I? Li Yunzhong is so awkward that he can't shout this word in his throat.

The official of the ceremony said excitedly: "Your Majesty will be able to win every battle. When the enemy hears your name, his legs will tremble. Is there anything else in the world that scares His Highness?"

"I... am very surprised. My dear friends suddenly gave me such a surprise. I... cough, I am really surprised!" It was clearly a sentence that raised an army to ask for guilt, but Li Yunzhong was very embarrassed.

Lu Jianying stood in front and looked around, smiled with satisfaction, and said, "Your Majesty, follow the will of heaven, overcome all obstacles, pacify the world, fight against foreign barbarians, and save the people from the fire and water. We are fortunate to assist Your Majesty, and we should be loyal to Your Majesty with all our hearts and hearts."

"We are really lucky to assist Your Highness in achieving great achievements in three lives!" The ministers bowed and shouted.

These people must have been rehearsed a long time ago! Li Yun Center wanted to find the people behind the scenes to settle the score, so he found these deaf and mute people: "What do these deaf and mute people do? How do you wear my big Han military uniform?"

Seeing that the emperor settled the score after autumn, Lin Daji had to list them as deaf and mutes and explained: "These deaf and mutes were selected by the Ministry of War from the Northern Expedition Army of the Taiping Army. I heard that they fought bravely until death and were loyal, so I gathered all the deaf and mutes in the Han army together to form the 'deaf' camp, and now they are led by the Imperial Guard."

In an army composed of deaf and mutes, Li Yunzhong said in surprise: "The deaf and mutes are so powerful in fighting? I have seen their bravery, but they have bound me so tightly, but loyalty is not necessarily true!"

Li Xiucheng was unwilling to become a criminal minister from Long's merits, and said with a smile: "Report to Your Highness, when I was in Guangxi, I had several deaf and mute people under my command. They were all brothers and were afraid of death when fighting. As long as there was a Qing army on the battlefield, they would not give up. Every time the ministers tried to remind them, otherwise no prisoners would be killed! Later, they captured Nanjing, and they started their families here."

Li Yunzhong had long forgotten the unhappiness just now, and looked at the deaf and mute people standing below and asked, "Who is their commander? Let him come and see me!"

Lin Daji pointed to the deaf and mute person standing in front: "This person is named Yang Xiucong, the commander of the 'deaf' camp, and has a fifth-rank official title. I heard that he is Yang Xiuqing's younger brother, I don't know whether it is true or false!"

Will Yang Xiuqing's younger brother be so miserable? Li Yunzhong regarded him as a rumor and reminded him: "These soldiers must treat them well and arrange them in suitable places, such as being artillery and musketeers."

Seeing such a grand moment, Lu Jianying turned his head to the deaf and mute, and hurriedly turned around and gave Chang Dachun a wink, asking him to cover the topic back.

"Report to Your Majesty, now that Your Majesty is the establishment of a new dynasty. The title of "Han" should not be used anymore. I ask Your Majesty to choose the national title again to represent our dynasty." Chang Dachun couldn't think of any good way for a while, so he could only tell the matter that had not been discussed within them and let everyone work together for advice.

Zhao Liewenxi said: "Mr. Chang said it well. Your Majesty's title was granted by Tianping Heavenly Kingdom. It is not justified. Now that he inherits the Great Order of China, he should establish his own national title."

Li Yunzhong thought the Han Dynasty was good. China had established so many countries. Why did it be called the Han people? Isn’t it because of pride? Seeing that the ministers below seemed to have other intentions, I also wanted to hear what they said, and asked: “What good national names do you have? Let’s say it. If it makes sense, I will adopt them.”

The ministers instantly poured out their blood and named a country. This is the supreme glory. The true name is left in history. This is also a rare qualification. When the emperor unifies the world, he will also rise and he will be in a high position. It is certain that he will be in the general and the ministers.

Lu Jianying couldn't wait to ask: "Where is the emperor's ancestral home?

Li Yunzhong remembered himself in his previous life, lived in Lianyungang for generations, and replied: "My ancestral home is in the East China Sea, Jiangsu!"

Lu Jianying calculated slightly, looked happy and said excitedly: "Congratulations to the emperor. When Emperor Gaozu of Tang became emperor, he made all his sons kings. Among them, King Li Yuanfang of Zhou lived in Xuzhou in his later years. According to records, Li Yunfang gave birth to a son in Donghai County and was named Duke of Donghai County. He was passed down for three generations. In order to avoid the Anshi Rebellion, he moved to Guangxi. His highness is from Jiangsu, and his ancestors live in Guangxi. Isn't that just in line with the records in the book? From this, it seems that Your Majesty is the descendant of Emperor Gaozu of Tang, Li Yuan of Tang, and inheriting the throne is open and upright. I am particularly proud to offer the title of "Tang" as the country!"

"Puff" Hu Mengjun, who was standing in the last row, couldn't help laughing when he heard Lu Jianying's nonsense. Seeing that all the civil and military officials in the court turned around and stared at him, he stepped out without blushing and said, "Report to Your Majesty, I think what Lord Lu said... is too reasonable! This shows that Your Majesty is the true dragon emperor, the destiny of heaven, and the heaven..."

Li Yunzhong was also amused by Lu Jianying and laughed loudly. He stopped blaming Hu Mengjun and pretended to be angry and said, "You are so tall, you still have any ends. Why don't you retreat quickly? Let's talk nonsense again, be careful that I will get an official."

Meng rose and said, "Your Majesty was born in Guangxi, and Guangxi calls it Yue. I would like to establish a country called Yue."

Zhao Liewen opposed: "My lord is not saying this. The word Yue refers to Guangxi and Guangdong. If the word Yue is used as the national name, it will make our dynasty too small and it will only make people laugh at it."

Meng Xing defended: "Did Lord Zhao forget that the Yue Kingdom, one of the five hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period, was that Gou Jian slept with firewood and tasted gall, and three thousand Yue armored swords destroyed Wu Kingdom. Besides, the area controlled by our dynasty was exactly the same as that of Yue Kingdom. This Yue Kingdom deserves its reputation."

Zhao Liewen said: "The State of Yue was destroyed by Chu. Does Lord Meng also want our dynasty to be the same as the State of Yue?"

Meng Shangsheng stepped back with an awkward expression and did not argue with Zhao Liewen.
