The Temple of Heaven outside Desheng Gate has already been decorated.
The altar is located in the center, with steps on all sides. The altar is equipped with incense tables and incense burners.
The incense table is also paved with yellow silk and satin, with a God's tablet on it.
The bele, ministers and officials were arranged on the east and west sides of the Temple of Heaven respectively. Forty-nine Mongolian officials from the outer vassal were arranged according to their respective flags.
Within the entire Temple of Heaven, flags and banners were overwhelmingly displayed, colorful and showing off incomparably.
There are tens of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers arrayed outside, displaying the Jurchens' illustrious martial arts skills wantonly.
The sky was bright and thousands of rays of glow were shooting out from the east. Huang Taiji arrived just in time.
Under the guidance of Saha Lian and Ning Wanwo, Huang Taiji strode up to the Temple of Heaven and personally offered incense and tribute to God.
Then Zhu Guan went out to report to God the great achievements of Huang Taiji in the past ten years, and asked for permission to ascend the throne of emperor.
The heaven-sacrifice ceremony is over, followed by the enthronement ceremony.
In the Dazheng Hall, the golden dragon chair has been prepared.
Huang Taiji is sitting on it, overlooking the world in all directions, and I am the only one who dominates.
Amidst the sound of drum music, civil and military officials began to follow the guidance of the salute officer.
"Kneel! Kowtow!"
But in the square, everyone knelt down and declared their surrender to Huang Taiji.
But as soon as this happened, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred.
I saw two lonely figures standing there, looking particularly eye-catching.
On the high platform, the salute officer couldn't help but pause when he saw this scene, and he was a little at a loss.
Although Huang Taiji sat still, his eyes narrowed. His twitching cheeks showed that anger was brewing in his heart.
The weird atmosphere made Hou Jin Wenwu aware of something unusual.
Haug was furious, got up from the ground, and rushed in front of the two men.
"Why don't you kneel?"
The two people who did not kneel were none other than the envoys from North Korea, Luo Dexian and Li Kuo.
They had a mission and came to mediate, but before leaving, Li Zhu made a special statement that they could not surrender to Hou Jin under any circumstances.
Now, if we bow to Huang Taiji three times and kowtow nine times, wouldn't it mean that North Korea has become a vassal state of Hou Jin?
Amid the overwhelming anger of the Jurchens, Luo Dexian bravely defended himself.
"North Korea and Dajin are brotherly countries. How can we bow down to brotherhood?"
Hauge wanted to draw his sword on the spot, but Fan Ji, who had quick eyes and quick hands, held him down.
Displaying weapons at the coronation ceremony, Hauge was afraid that he would not be able to escape death penalty.
Then he stepped forward for Hauge and asked the North Korean envoy: "Your Majesty has ascended to power today and has become the lord of the world. How can North Korea be so virtuous and dare to act like brothers? You don't know etiquette and want to disobey the emperor?"
Li Kuo refused to give in.
"The lord of Korea is only the Son of Heaven. A virtuous woman will not serve her two husbands, and a loyal minister will not serve his two masters. Please don't force others to do anything."
Dorgon walked over slowly, his eyes full of murderous intent.
"Times have changed, and today we, the Jin Dynasty, rule the world in the name of the Ming Dynasty. You are unworthy of fate and stubborn, and you should be severely punished."
He waved his hand, and a group of Eight Banners soldiers immediately rushed up, punched and kicked Luo Xian and Li Kuo, and pressed their heads, trying to make them kneel down.
Luo Dexian and Li Kuo struggled desperately.
"If you want to be the emperor, you should show your virtue to the world. Is there any emperor who forces people to submit?"
The scene became extremely noisy for a while. Luo Luo Xian and Li Kuo's clothes were torn and they looked very embarrassed.
Seeing that his coronation ceremony was in a mess, Huang Taiji was furious.
"Fork them out."
Everyone took the order and dragged the two of them along.
Order was restored and the enthronement ceremony was resumed.
However, the scene of North Korea refusing to surrender still added a touch of gloom to this otherwise vigorous founding ceremony.
Huang Taiji's good mood was completely destroyed, and it was still difficult to contain it after returning.
However, the Kaiyuan and founding of the People's Republic of China was an important matter, so he had no choice but to bury his hatred in his heart.
That night, at the ceremony banquet, Huang Taiji was all smiles and spoke in an easy-going tone. It was not obvious that his mood was affected at all.
The next day, he led all officials to the Ancestral Temple as usual to worship his ancestors.
On April 19, Huang Taiji issued the founding edict as emperor.
"Our country originally had names such as Manchu, Hada, Wula, Yehe, Huifa, etc., but ignorant people often called them Zhushen. The name of Fu Zhushen is a descendant of Chao Morgen in the northwest, and is actually not related to our country.
She. Our country was founded in Manchuria, and its lineage is far-reaching. It is said that the Yishi..."
In the edict, Huang Taiji officially ordered to stop using the name Zhushen and change the ethnic name to Manchuria.
The most important thing is that the country name Jin was stopped and changed to Qing Dynasty. At the same time, the era name was also changed from Tiancong to Chongde, which was completely different from the past.
This edict represented the formal establishment of the Qing Dynasty and became a complete country.
Now that he has proclaimed himself an emperor and established a country, it is natural that he should be given confederations and rewards.
On April 23, the canonization ceremony raised the Jurchens' morale to its peak.
The Jurchens, Mongol Baylors, Taiji Jinfeng princes, county kings, and the following princes, princes, uncles, etc. will be evaluated in turn.
At this point, the Manchu official title system was also formally established.
With everything in place, Huang Taiji finally began to liquidate North Korea's disrespect.
He personally wrote a letter of credence, gave it to Luo Xian and Li Kuo, and expelled them from the country.
Luo Luo Xian and Li Kuo were in a panic all the way, knowing that things had reached an irreversible point.
Halfway through, the two of them opened Huang Taiji's credentials and were too frightened to look directly at it.
In the letter of credence, Huang Taiji's words were extremely harsh and left no room for discussion.
[If your king regrets his sins, he should send his sons as pledges. Otherwise, I will raise a large army to approach your territory on a certain day of a certain month.]
This is purely a naked declaration of war, blocking all room for maneuver by North Korea.
Moreover, in the letter of credence, Huang Taiji officially abandoned the agreement between the brotherly countries and placed himself above Li Jie as emperor.
Luo Luo Xian and Li Kuo were angry and frightened. They discussed it privately and felt that if such credentials were presented to Li Kuo, they would be punished by death.
So the two of them abandoned their credentials in the wilderness, rewrote a new copy and took it back with them.
It is conceivable that this letter of credence, which did not put North Korea in the slightest regard, brought about a big reaction.
The entire country in North Korea was in an uproar, everyone was angry, and voices of resistance abounded.
This time public opinion was boiling, which allowed the main war faction to seize the opportunity.
Kim Sang-heon and others wrote letters one after another and tried their best to fight.
Under such circumstances, Li Zhu could not find a way to step down, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and send a message to the Manchus.
North Korea's reason was that the Manchus broke their brotherly covenant and usurped the title of emperor.
Cui Mingji saw this in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He repeatedly asked Li Zhu to see him. He tried his best to find out that Chen Ming was very powerful. He just hoped that the monarch could calm down.
Of course Li Zhu was unwilling to bow to the Manchus, but Ding Mao's chaos that year had shattered his ambitions. He was also worried that his throne would not be guaranteed and his family would be ruined.
Therefore, despite being impassioned on the surface and willing to die rather than surrender, he secretly ordered Cui Mingji to carefully outline and seek a way to stability.
Cui Mingji had no good solution, but advocated sending envoys to Liaodong again, hoping to persuade Huang Taiji to maintain the status quo.
The envoys he had just dispatched were expelled back. Li Jie looked a little confused and hesitated for a while in the face of this suggestion.
And the situation began to deteriorate while he was hesitating.
