A month passed quickly, the day of the election of the crown prince has arrived, in this more than a month, a special building appeared in the imperial capital of the Great Xia Empire, this building was specially built for the election of the crown prince, and there are four big characters in the noble house written by Emperor Li Liangzuo himself on the D gate of the entire building.
This is the first meeting of the House of Nobles, the three hundred and sixty-five nobles in the country, the vast majority of them have arrived, but there are also those who have not arrived, such as Li Zhe, King of Qin, Li De, King of Yong, Li Yi, the Great Protector of Anxi, Ji La Yong'er and others Because they are in the Western Regions, and the distance is far away, and now the war in the Western Regions is urgent, they cannot come back at all, although they have not arrived, but they have sent envoys, these envoys are their plenipotentiary representatives.
These so-called envoys are actually here to deliver letters, before coming to the Western Regions, these nobles have already written their own candidates on the secret letters, these secret letters are sealed with fire paint, even the envoys who sent the letter do not know what the content of the letter is, only after the secret letter is opened, it is possible to see, and it is two together to play a role in supervising each other, the nobles members vote anonymously, and the names of the candidates will be printed before, and the election is very simple, Just paint your non-selected objects out with ink.
In this way, no one knows who is elected, which not only increases the secrecy, but also protects these voters to a large extent, you must know that these voters are the elite of the Great Xia Empire, if anything happens because of this incident, it will be an irreparable loss for the Great Xia Empire.
On the fifteenth day of this month, all the nobles of the Great Xia Empire were concentrated in the House of Nobles, and the number of nobles who had obtained titles in the decades-long history of the Great Xia Empire was not large, most of them were soldiers, and in addition to the fact that soldiers were easy to die on the battlefield, once they died, those titles that could not be hereditary would be halved, or they would be directly gone, and they would be replaced by fields, these things were many, so the titles of nobles in the Great Xia Empire were very precious, and they all felt honored to be able to obtain a title, Now let them elect the crown prince, which gives them an unparalleled sense of pride.
"It's an auspicious time to open the door."
A eunuch shouted.
Under the voice of the eunuch, the door of the noble house slowly opened, and the pattern of the entire noble house is very similar to the palace, but there is only the front hall and no harem, and the scale is not very large, but the entire noble house is very exquisitely built, and it is very difficult to build a noble house covering an area of more than 100 acres within a month, and the noble house is not completely completed, and it needs to be gradually expanded in the future.
The core of the entire noble council is the main hall, the main hall is named Fengtian Palace, which means that all decisions made from here are to respect the will of God, which shows how the aristocratic council will exist in the Great Xia Empire in the future, after the door of the noble council is opened, all the nobles wear official robes that are in line with their titles and walk towards the Fengtian Palace, according to the system, the higher the level of the nobles, the more forward they do, and on the front of the imperial stairs is placed this dragon chair for the emperor to sit, there are a total of eight chairs on both sides, four on each side; These eight chairs were reserved for the Seven Princes, Kings and Crown Princes.
Among them, the crown prince's seat is the first place on the left hand side of the emperor, which means that the crown prince is above ten thousand people under one person, the first one on the right hand side is the king of Chu of the Great Xia Empire, the second on the left hand side is the Yan King of the Great Xia Empire, the second one on the right hand side is the Qin King of the Great Xia Empire, the three on the left hand side are the Liang King of the Great Xia Empire, the third one on the right hand side is the Qi King of the Great Xia Empire, the fourth one on the left hand side is the Zhao King of the Great Xia Empire, and the last one is the Yong King of the Great Xia Empire; On the back of each throne is engraved their royal name.
"His Majesty the Emperor has arrived," a eunuch shouted in a loud voice.
After hearing the voice of the eunuch, everyone knelt down on one knee and saluted: "The ministers greet His Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ” "Zhong Aiqing is flat, take a seat," the new emperor Li Bingchang said to everyone on the dragon chair with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up and bowed.
After everyone was seated, the new emperor Li Bingchang said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, I won't say much more than anything else, in order to ensure the prosperity of my Great Xia Empire, and for the eternal foundation of my Great Xia Empire, my father Shengming decided to establish a noble council, and you, the heroes of the Great Xia Empire, will elect the crown prince, of course, I won't say much about the rules here, originally this first election of the crown prince, should be presided over by my father himself, but my father was unwilling to come, so he handed over the right to preside over to me, If you don't have any questions, you can vote now. ” After Emperor Xia Li Bingchang's words were finished, a large ballot box was soon moved, and everyone voted in order according to the level of the title, and everyone's rights were the same in the voting of this title, that is to say, no matter how high or low your title was, there was only one vote, of course, it has not caused this problem yet, but this is a deep hidden danger.
After the vote is completed, it is the vote, in order to prevent someone from cheating, all the voters are determined by the on-site lottery, the lottery personnel are all the nobles, although it is the first time to elect the crown prince, this process is still very lacking, the whole process lasted from the morning to the afternoon before the end, everyone is here hungry waiting for the final result, this time the voters basically voted for others very little, the vast majority of people voted for Yan Wang Li Qing, that is to say, Yan Wang Li Qing got the crown prince with an absolute advantage.
As for the other people Xiang Liang Wang Li De, Qi Wang Li Ke and Zhao Wang Li Xing and others basically did not get much votes, Zhao Wang Li Xing is better, some people support Li Xing, but it is far from Yan Wang Li Qing, the reason is very simple, the people who support Zhao Wang Li Xing are basically officials with outstanding political achievements, they are all representatives of the literati; The people who chose Li Qing, the king of Yan, were basically military attachés with outstanding merits, and most of them had followed Li Qing, the king of Yan, to fight on the battlefield; Now that the Great Xia Empire is at war, there is a great hope for military attachés to become nobles, which is also a big problem for the House of Nobles.
After the election results came out, Li Bingchang, who was the emperor of the Great Xia Empire, immediately issued an order: "Spread my will and crown Li Qing, the king of Yan, as the crown prince." ” At the same time of canonization, Li Bingchang handed over the seal letter and yellow robe symbolizing the crown prince to Li Qing, the king of Yan, and Li Qing, the king of Yan, immediately knelt down to thank him after these results, and the whole ceremony of sealing the crown prince was very hasty, which was also stipulated when Li Liangzuo left, after all, the crown prince is not the crown prince, it is to be replaced every ten years, there is no need to make it so troublesome.
The second is more presented, and the brothers who have tickets will support it:
