In the next few days, Liangshan's senior officials were still busy. They still had many things to discuss, such as the comprehensive promotion of the examination system, the official selection system, the etiquette system, etc., which had to be discussed. www
In addition, the time for Wu Dong to ascend the throne must also be finally determined.
On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, everyone finally chose an auspicious day - the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month.
In modern times, the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month is just an ordinary day, but in ancient times, this day was an important festival. Legend has it that there was a severe drought in the north for three years.
Excessive levies and expropriations have led to years of famine in the world, and people are dying of hunger everywhere. Especially at the end of the year, the poor are desperate. In the first month of the year, show it to the emperor.
The grain warehouse official resolutely decided to open the palace to save the people. The people were saved, but he burned the warehouse and set himself on fire on the 25th day of the first lunar month. In order to commemorate the warehouse official, the ancients designated this day as "Tian Cang Festival", also known as "Tian Cang Festival".
"Cangg Festival", every day on this day, people from all over the country use plant ash to build round granaries, some of which are decorated with lace and auspicious words, and sprinkle grains in the granaries to symbolize a good harvest.
Everyone in Liangshan set the date of his accession to the throne as the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, with the intention of commemorating the official Cang and not forgetting his lesson.
By the twentieth day of the first lunar month, most of the things had been discussed, leaving only some details. Wu Dong thought he could have a good rest for a few days, but Li Gang stopped him.
"Grand Governor, you should take a bath and change your clothes. Before you ascend the throne, you should pray to heaven at the Temple of Heaven." Li Gang said.
"Isn't this necessary?" Wu Dong was stunned and said.
"It is very necessary. The Governor is about to become the king of a country. Only by praying sincerely to God will God bless the beam! In addition to the Governor, some respected old people, some ministers, and some boys and girls will also follow Your Majesty.
Just pray together." Li Gang said seriously.
Wu Dong had no choice but to accept it. From that day on, he prayed to heaven at the Temple of Heaven and knelt there most of the time. It was still very cold in the first month of the year in the north. Fortunately, Wu Dong was in better health, otherwise he would have really suffered.
No.
Li Gang is extremely busy these days. As the Minister of Internal Affairs, he is fully responsible for Wu Dong's coronation ceremony, and he needs to be responsible for all kinds of things.
Important officials from all over the country have arrived, some youth representatives selected from various places have arrived, past labor models have arrived, and elites from the Academy of Sciences have also arrived! In addition, some foreign envoys have also arrived.
These foreign envoys mainly refer to the "Great Song Dynasty", Tubo and Huacizim are far away from the north, and they did not send envoys at all.
Two of the envoys of the Song Dynasty were acquaintances of Liangshan, one was the eunuch Yang Jian, and the other was Song Jiang! The other one was Zhong Shidao's younger brother Zhong Shizhong, and he also came here!
At this moment, Song Jiang was visiting Zhu Wu in Zhu Wu's mansion. When the two met, they were both very emotional.
Back then, they fell off the grass together in Shaohua Mountain. Ten years later, they have changed greatly. Now they are no longer bandits. Song Jiang is the general of the Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, and Zhu Wu has become the foreign minister of Liangshan.
"Brother Zhu, you and I are both old!" Song Jiang sat there and sighed.
"Brother Song is joking, you and I are just forty, so we are not old! Cai Jing of the Song Dynasty is already over seventy years old, and the same is true for Zhongshi Dao. We are much younger than them! Brother, since you have come to Liangshan
, that is my distinguished guest! By the way, Zhang Heng, Dai Zong and others are all in Yanjing City, you can also go and meet them." Zhu Wu said with a smile.
"Okay, these people are all brothers from the past. I will definitely pay a visit." Song Jiang nodded.
"Brother, I have a word of advice... Now that all the brothers are in Liangshan, why don't you also join Liangshan?" Zhu Wu hesitated for a moment and said.
"Join Liangshan? How is this possible? Liangshan is a grass bandit! When you and I fell into Shaohua Mountain, we were forced by the traitors of the imperial court. We had no choice but to do so! But now that I have become an official of the imperial court, how can I become a grass bandit again? Brother
, I also have a word of advice, after all, Liangshan is a grassroots bandit, the Song Dynasty is orthodox, you should join the Song Dynasty!" Song Jiang said.
"Orthodox? What is orthodoxy? At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Qin was orthodox! At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty was orthodox! At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was also orthodox! But this orthodoxy did not last long and was quickly replaced by other dynasties.
Replacement! It is the general trend for Liangshan to replace the Song Dynasty. Brother Song, can't you see this?" Zhu Wudao.
"The Song Dynasty has ruled the world for two hundred years, and the people's will, how can Liangshan replace the Song Dynasty? Brother, don't be confused! In fact, I came to see you because I have something to say." Song Jiang said.
"Brother Song, please speak!" Zhu Wudao said.
"The world has been fighting for many years, and the people have suffered deeply. Now is the time for peace! Although the Song Dynasty is orthodox, it has no plans to attack Liangshan. We hope that Liangshan can also stop the war and return peace to the people of the world! Zhu Zhu
Brother, when you are in Liangshan, you should also try to persuade Wu Dong to stop his wanton wars! We can tolerate him proclaiming himself emperor in the north for the time being," Song Jiang said.
"Brother Song was joking and stopped fighting. How is this possible?" Zhu Wu laughed.
"Why not?" Song Jiang asked.
"Liangshan has been fighting since the establishment of the Tao. This is like a fast-moving carriage. It is impossible to make it stop suddenly! No one from top to bottom in Liangshan can tolerate such a thing happening." Zhu
Martial arts.
Song Jiang frowned and looked at Zhu Wu suspiciously.
"First of all, the Grand Governor will never stop the war! Back then, the Grand Governor raised troops to save the people of the world. Now the people of the Song Dynasty are still living in dire straits. His goal back then has not been achieved, so why would he stop the war?
?" Zhu Wudao.
"Nonsense. The people of the Song Dynasty were bathed in the favor of the emperor and lived a stable life. How could they be in dire straits? I think the reason why he was unwilling to stop the war was mainly because he was too ambitious!" Song Jiang said coldly.
"It may also be because of ambition... Except for the governor, the generals from all over the country will not agree to stop the war! These generals want to be the founding heroes of the country. They have conquered half of the country, and you let them give up halfway. How is this possible? Chapter 1
Third, the people in various places in Liangshan also
I won’t agree to stop the war! Over the years, Liangshan has been constantly propagandizing to overthrow all corrupt regimes, and the Song Dynasty is the biggest corrupt regime Liangshan propagandized! Now that Liangshan suddenly stops the war, what will the people think? Moreover, I don’t know.
I agree with Liangshan to stop the war." Zhu Wudao.
"Oh? Why is this?" Song Jiang said.
"The world has been divided for more than two hundred years, and now it is time to unify it! Only when the world is unified can China become truly strong! For more than a thousand years, those powerful dynasties, including the Han and Tang Dynasties, were all established under the condition of unification of the world.
.Besides, if we don’t destroy the Song Dynasty now while we are strong, do we have to wait for the Song Dynasty to become stronger in the future to destroy us?” Zhu Wu said calmly.
"This..." Song Jiang was stunned.
"Brother Song, we all have different ideas, so there is no need to argue! No matter what, you are still my eldest brother, and I will entertain you well in Yanjing City. I hope we will not meet on the battlefield in the future." Zhu Wudao.
"That's it! That's it!" Song Jiang sighed deeply.
After Song Jiang left Zhu Wu's mansion, he went straight to Dai Zong's mansion! Dai Zong was also a brother of Shaohua Mountain back then, and he also had a passionate relationship with him! It was only after entering Dai Zong's mansion that he felt something was wrong! Dai Zong looked at it coldly.
He looked at him and didn't invite him into the house at all, which made Song Jiang very uncomfortable.
"Brother Dai Zong!" Song Jiang said.
"You and I have long ceased to be brothers! Back on Shaohua Mountain, we were both grass bandits, regardless of the rank of grass bandits at that time! Now you and I are ministers of the Song Dynasty and Liangshan respectively. We are each our own masters, regardless of our previous personal friendship.
Forget it!" Dai Zong said coldly.
Song Jiang looked at Dai Zong blankly. He never dreamed that Dai Zong would say such a thing.
Dai Zong sneered in his heart, he had long looked down on Song Jiang! Although Dai Zong has a high status now, he is mean and a standard villain! When he was in Shaohua Mountain, he didn't care about Song Jiang's friendship at all and went directly to
Liangshan! Now after so many years, Song Jiang is in his
In his mind, he is worse than a stranger! He looks down on all those whose status is inferior to his own. Now he is the deputy minister of the Ministry of Law. Wu Dong has talked to him and said that he will be appointed as the minister of the Ministry of Supervision, and Song Jiang is just Gao Qiu.
He was just a dog, how could he like Song Jiang?
"Okay, okay!" Song Jiang laughed sadly and angrily, turned and left Dai Zong's mansion.
"Come here, keep a close eye on this Song Jiang! This Song Jiang once sent Li Kui to assassinate the Governor, and he deserves death! This time, he might have another conspiracy!" When Song Jiang's figure gradually disappeared, Dai Zong said
Then he sneered.
Soon, a group of Dai Zong's men followed Song Jiang.
