Chapter 68 Worshiping the Outstanding Emperors of All Dynasties
Under the trees, the wind blew and the green threads moved.
"Speaking of which, we have known each other for a long time." Jin Yang recalled: "I still remember that before my father ascended the throne, you followed Uncle Qin to visit my father at the Chu Palace and accidentally sprained your foot."
Speaking of this, Qin Huaiyu also showed a hint of reminiscence. This was ten years ago. At that time, the saint had not yet ascended the throne. He often followed the adults and accompanied the saint on outings.
"Yeah, I still remember." He nodded.
Jin Yang gently stroked his hair and said: "As for me, I never care about what people outside say. Therefore, I want to ask you, are you really not going to give up?"
She blushed slightly when she said this. After all, she was a girl, so she always felt embarrassed to talk about such things.
Qin Huaiyu plucked up the courage and said: "Your Highness, I actually thought about giving up. But to be honest with you, I can't let it go. Your Excellency told me that some things cannot be forced, and if the Qin family is cared for by a saint, they will definitely be rich and powerful in the future.
We need Princess Shang. Besides, Your Majesty also said that Your Highness is the beloved daughter of a saint, so my chances are not good.
But, Your Highness, I really don’t want to give up. I was drunk and talking nonsense before. Although it was nonsense, I thought about it later and found that it was not nonsense, but what I really wanted to say. Your Highness, I want to ask you, what on earth do I want to do?
Only if you do it will Your Highness be willing to give me a chance."
Jin Yang was startled for a moment, then sighed: "No matter what you do, I don't know. Qin Huaiyu, in fact, I haven't thought about those things at all."
"Ah?" He was stunned.
Jin Yang laughed and said, "That's true."
"Then I don't have any chance at all." He said disappointedly.
Regarding this, Jinyang didn't know how to answer him. She didn't lie to him. She really didn't know the criteria for the person she wanted.
After all, Jinyang's life has been so smooth since she was a child, and because of the emperor's favor, she basically has no worries. This leads to her having no desires or desires, and naturally she has no standards.
It can be said.
Seeing his lost look, Jin Yang said, "Let's talk about it later."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Qin Huaiyu pursed his lips silently and suddenly said loudly: "Your Highness, I will not give up!"
Hearing this, Jinyang smiled behind his back and left quickly.
Li Lizhi looked at her and said, "He is quite infatuated."
"Stop talking, I don't want to discuss this matter at all." Jin Yang sighed: "Actually, he is not bad, but I haven't thought about it."
Li Lizhi said sympathetically: "Then he won't wait for you forever."
"Don't say that, as if I am the culprit." Jin Yang pouted.
Li Lizhi covered her mouth and snickered, "Okay, I won't say anything anymore. Mr. Sun's class is about to start, let's go."
"Um."
Manna Hall.
Naturally, what happened in Jinyang could not be hidden from the emperor. Naturally, he protected his daughter very carefully.
"This Qin Huaiyu, ugh." Li Zhiyun shook his head.
He had watched Qin Huaiyu grow up. He was a decent-looking young man with a good brain and a good background. He was considered a promising young man.
He didn't think much about this matter and got up and headed to the political hall.
There is something waiting for him to deal with right now.
Regarding the matter of enshrining emperors of past dynasties, Li Zhiyun formally raised it at the court two days ago, and asked all officials to express their opinions, and compiled a complete list of emperors who could be worshiped in all dynasties.
Before this, no dynasty had ever done this. Everyone only served the emperors of the current royal family.
Therefore, after Li Zhiyun proposed this idea, the courtiers felt it was very novel and expressed their willingness to discuss it enthusiastically.
Political Hall.
Li Zhiyun read a memorial and sneered: "Sima Yan is not worthy."
After saying that, he threw the memorial aside directly.
Hearing this, Du Ruhui said in confusion: "Your Majesty, I am ignorant. Your Majesty said earlier that the emperors you worship must be the kings of a unified dynasty, and they must make outstanding contributions to the entire nation. Emperor Wu of Jin unified the three kingdoms and ended the troubled times.
, it should be enshrined.”
Li Zhiyun asked: "Do you think Emperor Wu of Jin deserves to share the enshrinement with Emperor Wu of Han?"
Hearing this, Du Ruhui remained silent.
You don’t need to answer this question to know that Emperor Wu of Jin is not worthy to be compared with Emperor Wu of Han. In terms of civility and martial arts, Emperor Wu of Jin is not worthy!
Li Zhiyun said: "I have just read the memorials of most of the ministers, and now I will talk about the candidates in my mind. First of all, the first one is Qin Shihuang. Do you have any opinions?"
Everyone shook their heads. This was undisputed. He was the first emperor in history and the first emperor to unify the world. He deserved to be worshiped and worshiped. Needless to say.
"Very good." Li Zhiyun continued: "The second one is Liu Bang, Emperor Taizu of the Han Dynasty."
Everyone agreed that this was undisputed. After all, the name of the entire nation was the name of Liu Bang's country.
"Third, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen of the Han Dynasty Liu Heng."
Everyone has no opinion on this either.
"The fourth place is Liu Che, Emperor Shizong of Han Dynasty and Emperor Xiaowu."
The achievements of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty are well known to everyone.
Li Zhiyun continued: "The fifth one is Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty."
"Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling couldn't help but interrupt.
"how?"
"I thought that Han Zhongzong, Emperor Xiaoxuan, could also offer sacrifices."
Li Zhiyun sneered and said: "In terms of merit, he is certainly worthy, but since him, the former Han Dynasty has entered a desperate situation."
Liu Xun was indeed a qualified emperor, but he was not good enough.
I have clearly said that the person who messes with my family must be a prince. I know what kind of thing my son is, but I still can't bear to destroy him, which led to the failure of the former Han Zhongxing and a big deduction!
The emperor refused, and Fang Xuanling could not say anything.
Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyun said: "Emperor Gaozu Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian, and our late emperor, Emperor Gaozu Wu."
Speaking of Lao Li, Li Zhiyun blushed for a moment. To be honest, Lao Li cannot compare with the previous ones. However, it would be a bit inappropriate not to include Lao Li.
Several prime ministers looked at each other, secretly admiring the sage's heart, that even Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was willing to acknowledge his achievements.
Li Zhiyun is naturally not disgusting, not to mention the Kaihuang rule during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty is indeed worthy of recognition.
Du Ruhui asked: "Your Majesty, are these seven the only ones?"
"In addition, Huangdi Xuanyuan, Emperor Yan, the three emperors and five emperors of ancient times, and even the wise kings of the Shang and Zhou dynasties can also be worshiped."
"yes."
At this point, Li Zhiyun added: "On the throne of Qin Shi Huangdi, I remember the word Zulong in the book."
"Why?" Dai Zhou asked.
Li Zhiyun replied, "He is worth it."
Half an hour later, the emperor and several ministers decided on the list of sacrifices at the Wenwu Emperor Temple.
Then, Li Zhiyun said: "This is custom-made, and it should be built as a temple for the emperors of the past dynasties. I thought that the Foguang Temple in the Taiji Palace is idle, so I will repair it and change it into an emperor's temple."
After he ascended the throne, Buddhism was severely suppressed, and the Foguang Temple in the palace had not been visited for a long time. It gradually became idle and is now being used.
Naturally, the prime ministers had no objections and agreed one after another.
Two days later, the list of past emperors enshrined was announced.
Most people have no objections, because every emperor above has indeed made great achievements. Even if some people dispute whether Qin Shihuang is a 'tyrant', they cannot erase his great achievements.
In addition, many ministers who had experienced the Sui Dynasty saw that Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was also on the list, and they secretly admired the emperor's broad-mindedness.
