Chapter 88: The Origin of the Name Zhu Huang
He was busy all day, and it was not until the moon climbed up to the treetops that Zhu Wen sent the last guest away. After a day of busyness, Zhu Wen felt more tired than fighting.
Zhu Wen is not physically tired, but mentally tired. He doesn't like this kind of social engagement, but he has to come forward. No matter how strong he is, he cannot govern the world alone. Those vassal states that govern one side have their own troops and power. Zhu Wen cannot and does not want to solve them one by one by one, and it is even more impossible for the war to burn all over the country again.
As long as those vassal states can comply with their own government orders, they can realize their desire to make everyone in the world rich and realize their desire to make science and technology change the Chinese nation.
Now Zhu Wen has established scientific research institutes in various places, specifically recruiting some aspiring young people for research. Zhu Wen has also built new schools in various places to replace the original private schools and changed the original imperial examination system. When taking the exam for the juren and Jinshi, the examination content is no longer the useless Four Books and Five Classics, but some practical government affairs, and the selection of officials starts from the bottom. In addition to the actual ability to handle matters, the assessment of officials also requires the assessment of character.
What made the people even more cheered was that poor children could enter school for free, and the school also had a free lunch meal, which gave most poor children who could not afford to go to school the opportunity to study. There were also temporary training schools that specially train employees for major factories. Some young and middle-aged people could enter school for free, and they could go directly to work in major factories and mines after two or three months of training.
For a time, the poor children in the world cheered and cheered. Even many of the green forest rich men who had built villages and defended themselves had walked out of the mountains, some returned to their hometowns to farm, and some went to factories and mining enterprises to work.
Zhu Wen also dredged the silted canal, transported the steel and coal from the north to the south, and transported the silk and tea from the south to the north. The dredging of the canal greatly facilitated transportation between the north and the south. Due to the development of commerce and industry, steam-powered cargo ships also emerged, making it more convenient for transportation between the north and the south.
Zhu Wen looked at the piles of memorials sent from various places, and a smile of relief appeared on his face. The aristocratic families and families from all over the country also invested their existing funds in industry and commerce. The development of private enterprises greatly promoted the development of productivity, and the whole world entered a new era. At this time, even the vassal states in various places took the initiative to devote their main energy to the development of production. They could clearly see the development speed of the areas under Zhu Wen, and they did not want to be left behind forever.
But they lack advanced technology. After several failed espionage operations, they had to ask Zhu Wen for technology explicitly. Some even asked Zhu Wen to send some technical talents to help build factories and enterprises, but the prerequisite was that they would pay a certain amount of taxes to the "Court". Who doesn't know that the court was actually opened by the Zhu family?
Some vassal states have even proposed to ask Zhu Wen to abolish Li Qi's throne and let Zhu Wen become the emperor himself. They expressed their absolute support. Of course, the first of these people proposed was Zhu Wen's son-in-law, Luo Shaowei, the governor of Wei Bo Army. Then there were Zhu Wen's direct personnel, Pang Shigu, the governor of the army of the Taining Army, Ge Congzhou, and Zhu Zhen, the governor of the Zhenguo Army.
The so-called flower-carved sedan chair is a natural thing. When someone starts, someone will support him. When the army governor of Chengdezhen, Wang Rong, and Wang Chu, the governor of Yiwu Army, saw someone taking the lead, they followed him and agreed. Later, Yang Xingmi also expressed his support for Zhu Wen to be the emperor.
Of course, Yang Xingmi’s ability to support Zhu Wen’s claim to emperor was not unrelated to Huang Chao’s last visit.
Zhu Wen also knew that it was not a solution to continue like this. Since Li Tang could no longer command the world and could not bear the ability to let the people of the world live a good life, he had to stand up and shoulder the burden. However, when he looked around the court and the country, no one was more suitable for him than Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen was not at ease to hand over the world to those who did not know how to sympathize with the people.
Of course, Li Qi, the emperor of Li Tang in the palace, would not have been unaware of this. He summoned all the ministers to discuss matters. At this time, the three prime ministers also knew that the situation in Li Tang was destined, and of course they wanted to please Zhu Wen. Prime Minister Liu Can said, "Now people hope to return to the marshal, and Your Majesty bowed and let him go, and it is now."
Liu Can is a bachelor. He was the prime minister of Li Tang, but he advised the emperor of Li Tang to "give up and let go of his faults". This is a pity that he said. However, if he wanted to continue to stay in the position of prime minister, he had to do this. First of all, he could give the new king a good impression and not allow himself to be excluded as soon as he ascended the throne.
Zhang Jun is also a die-hard supporter of Zhu Wen. If it weren't for Zhu Wen, Zhang Jun would have died many times long ago. How could he still be the prime minister? He immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, now the fortune of the Tang Dynasty is declining, and the late emperor is covered in dust several times. It is all because His Highness the Prime Minister's King of Wei was able to be relocated to this day. Now the King of Wei is the marshal of the world, holding heavy troops. In addition, the people in the market only know that there is a marshal, but not the emperor. Instead of doing so, Your Majesty might as well follow Yao and Shun to abdicate and give way to the wise, and at least he can protect all living beings from wealth."
Emperor Li Qi sighed and said, "The fortune has been gone to Tang for a long time, and fortunately it was extended by the marshal. Today, the world is not the world, and it is a great treasure. If you return to virtue, why don't you doubt it?" Li Qi didn't want to continue to be the emperor. He also knew that Zhu Wen is what people want now, and it would be meaningless to be this emperor. He also had to worry all day long. He had to live enough of such a life. If the throne was given to Zhu Wen, at least he should be able to be a free prince. Being a peaceful prince is already his greatest wish.
Seeing that Li Qi was not as angry as they expected, but clearly judged the situation and said such words of agreement to give the wise. Everyone bowed to the ground and shouted, "Long live the holy clarity!"
On February 7, the fourth year of Tianyou, Li Qi issued an edict to all civil and military officials to go to the Wei Palace to invite the King of Wei to ascend the throne, and issued an edict:
The prime ministers and civil and military officials were ordered to be the emperor, and the ministers of Yue and the ministers were obeyed. The great treasures were respected and the great artifacts were not to fill the universe, and to help Qianli, and to focus on the achievements of Warehouses, and to promote the achievements of Wen and Guichuan. Emperor Yunxi, who conquered the heavenly craftsmanship, how could he rule the nation and shine on the Eight Poles? Marshal Liang, Longyan, Ruizhi, and Weizhi, used his wisdom to set the world and the world to be determined by the great spirits and benevolence. The great magical powers were extremely virtuous, and the great achievements were rarely recorded, and the praises of the emperor. The achievements of twenty years were praised by the people of billions of twelve, and there was no difference in words or hope for the far away. I only had the king's sage virtues, and the light was passed by the eight mountains, and I should follow the Xuanqiong.
Bao Ming. Moreover, the astronomy and auspiciousness, the Xuanming, and the Yu Xiachang period were revealed in the talismans. The world cannot be long-lasting, and the destiny cannot be long-term. The god Ye Xin returned to virtue. I respect the world, passed on the Zen saint, and retreated to the old lords to prepare for the three charity. Now I ordered the prime ministers Zhang Wenwei, Yang She and others to lead all civil and military officials to prepare for the Liang Dynasty, encouraged the ruling and respectful, and respected the Mingzhu. I sent this heavy burden to others, and always served as Yu Bin, and received the new dynasty and were both honored. I was a member of the Chinese and foreign countries, and I should remember that this edict was written by Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun was already talented and quick-witted, and he was even more skillful in writing these articles that praised merits.
This edict shows that Li Qi's abdication was inevitable. After receiving the edict, Zhu Wen was excited. It has been twenty years since he came to this world. After twenty years of hard work, he finally became the lord of the world. Zhu Wen was lucky. He went from nothing to the peak of power step by step. Every step was not so smooth, but within his expectations. With his powerful technological power and a group of loyal generals, he laid down his current foundation step by step, allowing the people to live a stable life without having to be displaced. Zhu Wen felt very pleased.
On February 22, the fourth year of Tianyou, Emperor Li Qi issued another edict:
I consult the world's military marshals, the prime ministers of the country, and the king of Liang. I always read ancient books. The one who starts with Yao and Shun is probably the scriptures of abdication to the infinite. Therefore, I have granted Mount Tai and the father of the Liang Dynasty. The seventy-two kings who can be said to know that the world's greatest masters are not unique to one surname. Since ancient times, the king and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty have been exhausted and tired, and they are worried about taking the gods and waiting for the day. Everyone lives there and is afraid, and they are peaceful and peaceful. Moreover, Xuanyuan is not unclear, and the release of honors is not unsaints, and they still want to travel to Gushe and stay in the big courtyard. The end of the year, the fortune is long, and the fate is gone, and the one who rules the world! Moreover, since Yizu, the ancestors have been lucky to have chaos, and the disasters have started, and the government has gradually become unrealized. The sky is wide and the sea is flowing, and the four periods are here, and there is no shelter for all living beings. It is in the dark and chaos, who is the bottom of the bottom? It is the boy, Guangdong has been young and has continued to decline.
Xu. How could he be able to defend Hongji? Only Wang Mingsheng is in Gong and is in Gong's wise men. He promotes Shenwu and suppresses Xia. He has twenty great achievements and writes books. He crosses Yinshan in the north, crosses Jianhai in the south, goes to Jieshi in the east, and goes to quicksand in the west, and is unhappy with his life. He is not happy with the support. He is not ignorant and has been in danger. Now he observes astronomy and observes people's wishes. It is the ultimate time for the earth virtues, and it is the time when the metal signs are in response. Moreover, within ten years, the comets have three appearances, spread the new and eliminated the old, and there are bright signs, and praises the place where they are returned. He is in the wisdom virtue. Now he is sent to hold the rituals, silver and green Guanglu Dafu, guard the Zhongshu Shishou, and Zhang Wenwei, and others, who serve the emperor's treasure ribbon, respectfully beside the position. In the play, the number of heaven is in Gong's calendar, and the heaven's fortune is forever. The king only shows great rituals, enjoys all countries, and accepts the destiny of heaven.
Zhu Wen took the Zen step by step. He first made the title of King of Wei, Prime Minister, and added Jiuxi. This was already a preparation for the Zen. All this was natural. Zhu Wen did not take the initiative to fight for it. He was just trying to do everything he should do. As for the policies of exempting the taxes of the poor, it was not that Zhu Wen tried to win people's hearts, but that Zhu Wen himself wanted the people to live a good life. Although some people from aristocratic families said everything behind their backs, especially those scholars, Zhu Wen didn't care, he just wanted to have a clear conscience.
Zhu Wen's official name was Zhu Quanzhong at this time, which was given by Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty, Li Yan. Now that he is the emperor, of course he cannot use that name. Of course, the name Zhu Wen cannot be used anymore.
Some civil servants and staff suggested that Zhu Wen change a more generous name. Many people sent many names for Zhu Wen to consider, but they were rejected by Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen thought to himself: "Isn't it just a name? What name is not the same? Is it necessary to change it? I can just use my own name to call Zhu Riguang."
Zhu Wen told his meaning to the ministers and counselors, and Jing Xiang said, "The two words "Sunguang" add up to the word "Yang". So Your Majesty changed the name to "Yang". What do you think?"
Zhu Wen shook his head and smiled bitterly. In the history of the Five Dynasties, Zhu Wen changed his name to Zhu Huang. This is something he knows about, but he didn't expect that the word "闻" would come from like this. Zhu Wen shook his head and said, "Forget it, Zhu Huang is just Zhu Huang. It's just one name. It's no big deal. What name is the same?"
