Chapter 1574: Filial piety


The air was filled with smoke.

The usual fragrant aroma in the hall was mixed with the smell of embers after the paper money was burning.

Dressed in a set of white filial piety clothes, in such smoke, Wu Meiniang only felt that her chest was tight, and she couldn't help but want to cough.

However, looking at the coffin in front of her, she still tried her best to suppress the urge to cough.

Next to her is the new emperor Li Hong, who has just succeeded to the throne.

Twelve-year-old Li Hong is actually still a child.

This child looks very much like Li Shimin, but he is not as strong and brave as the emperor, on the contrary, he is a little weak.

Pale face, thin body, thin arms and legs, kneeling there, coughing from time to time.

"Your Majesty, it's all right" "Queen Mother, I'm fine."

Li Hong coughed from time to time because of the foul air, but in the face of the Queen Mother's concern, he still lied very well.

"Say a glass of water."

The emperor has been dead for some time, but he has not been buried.

When Li Shimin was dying, he once made a will, saying that after he died, he would not be buried first, and he would be sent back to the Central Plains for burial in the future.

One day Datang can't counterattack back to the Central Plains, and he won't go into the ground for a day.

Before Li Shimin died, he held his son Li Hong's hand and handed over the three golden arrows to Li Hong in front of Wu Meiniang, Xu Shiji, Wei Chigong and others.

"The first arrow is for you to crusade against the Central and American Mayan city-states, if you don't conquer the Central and American Mayan city-states first, then South America will not be able to take it.

Only by unifying the whole of America can we have the opportunity to accumulate strength to fight back to the Central Plains in the future, otherwise the longer the Chinese army is entrenched in South America, the more passive we will be. ” "The second arrow, you have to take Australia.

Aozhou used to be the place of exile of your brother Li Zhi, he refused to belong to Zhang Chao and killed himself, and he has the backbone of my Li family.

You will take Australia and avenge your brother.

Take Australia as a bridgehead for a future counterattack on the Central Plains. ” "The third arrow, you have to kill Zhang Chao and eradicate the rebellious ministers and thieves from the Zhang family.

You can fulfill my three wishes and recover the Tang Dynasty, and I will die without regrets. ” Now these three golden arrows are offered in front of Li Shimin's coffin.

Li Hong, who is only twelve years old, has three golden arrows and three wishes, even for Li Shimin, these three wishes are like ascending to the sky, and for the young Li Hong, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky.

As soon as Li Shimin died, people were panicked.

Not to mention fighting Maya, occupying South America, seizing Australia, and counterattacking the Central Plains.

Even in the city of San Francisco, everyone was panicking, and everyone was spreading a rumor that the Emperor Dahua of the Central Plains had sent an expeditionary fleet and was crossing the sea.

"Taishi, Taifu."

Wu Meiniang said to Xu Shiji and Wei Chigong on the side, "Now that His Majesty has died, the Yin people are ready to move, and they are very unstable.

The two were the auxiliary ministers appointed by His Majesty before the death of the Emperor, and they felt that what should be done now?"

Xu Shiji and Wei Chigong are a master and a master, and at the same time, they also serve as the prime minister of Zhongshu Ling and Shizhong, and even one is the marshal of the Northern Ya and the other is the marshal of the Southern Ya, which can be described as a military and political grasp.

As soon as the emperor died, the military power was basically in the hands of these two people, and although the Wu clan listened to the government, it was unstable without soldiers.

Xu Shiji's answer was simple.

"It's true that some people are restless, but it's easy to clean them up, kill a hundred people, kill a few chickens to show those monkeys, and those monkeys will be at peace."

Li Shimin conquered the Yin tribes by forceful means over the years and forced them to submit to the Later Tang Dynasty, but after all, there were too few Han people in the Later Tang Dynasty.

There are no more than 100,000 people in total, but there are no less than 3 million Yin people, and it is very difficult to dominate 3 million Yin people with 100,000 Han people.

Even if Li Shimin had used the method of razing to control the Yin people before, by intermarrying with the Yin people, and even supporting some loyal Yin people to help rule the Yin people, the Yin people did not really fully integrate into the Later Tang Dynasty.

In fact, many Yin tribes are still only nominally subordinate to the Later Tang Dynasty, but they are still living the old days, nomadic hunting and planting.

In the Later Tang Dynasty, except for a very small number of towns, its territory was basically composed of very backward and barbaric tribes, which relied on military deterrence.

But now that the tough emperor is dead, it is normal for some Yin people to become restless.

Wei Chigong also supports killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, the more times like this, the more you can't be weak.

Wu Meiniang nodded.

She is now very jealous of these two kings, for fear that they will be bullied by two powerful ministers who have their orphans and widows, but there is nothing she can do.

Of course, the biggest crisis now is still the Central Plains.

In the past few years, Dahua has blockaded North America, ignoring them, they are cautious, and they are secretly lucky in their hearts, but now that the emperor is dead, who knows what the attitude of the Central Plains will be.

Whether it is the Wu clan or Xu Shijiwei Chi Gong, they all know the true strength of the Tang Dynasty in North America, and it is okay to bully those loose Yin tribes, and even now they have the ability to start a war with the Mayan city-state, as long as they don't start a war with the entire Mayan city-state, they can still fight.

But if it is said that there is a war with Dahua, even if Dahua crosses the ocean to conquer, it will be difficult for them to deal with it.

Not to mention anything else, several important cities in Datang in North America are all on the west coast, and Dahua's navy is the most powerful.

"Taishi, Taifu, the mourning family has thought about it and plans to move the capital."

"It's good to move the capital, Your Majesty originally planned to move the capital and move to the Jinshan River Valley Plain, but before it came, Your Majesty had already made a big move."

Xu Shiji was also in favor of moving the capital.

At the beginning, Li Shimin also took into account the strength of the Central Plains Navy, and was always worried about the attack of the Dahua Navy.

The capital of the Tang Dynasty is on the San Francisco Peninsula, close to the sea, if the navy really wants to attack, wouldn't it be directly attacked by the capital.

Moving to the Jinshan Plain, at least the inland plain, can be safer.

"The addresses have been chosen, now send people to build the palace capital, recruit some more people, and move the capital in a year."

A year is a bit tight, but it is better to build the palace and the outer city walls first, and then build some palace houses.

"Taishi, have you chosen the name of the emperor and the temple number?"

Wu asked again.

"I have discussed with Taifu and others, the name of the first emperor is the Emperor of Wenwu Sheng, and the temple name is Taizong."

Emperor Wenwu Sheng.

Generally speaking, there is one word for the name, but Xu Shiji and Wei Chigong gave Li Shimin three words, which is literary, martial and holy, which can be described as extremely beautiful.

This kind of shameless sycophancy is really shameless.

Wu thought for a while, "The Emperor of the Wenwu Sage, how about the Emperor of the Great Sage of Wenwu?"

The civil and military saints are not enough, and one more big character must be added.

At this time, even Xu Shiji and Wei Chigong felt a little embarrassed.

This kind of argument is indeed a bit excessive.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Xu Shiji asked Li Hong.

Li Hong coughed twice, wiped his eyes that were a little uncomfortable with the smoke, and said, "My Tang Dynasty has always established the country with filial piety, and I feel that the word filial piety should be added to the name of the first emperor." ” "Emperor Wenwu Great Shengxiao" Li Hong nodded, "How about not adding a Zhuang character again?"

"Emperor Wenwu Great Sage Xiaozhuang" Wei Chigong felt blushing after reading it.

It is really ironic to say that Datang governs the country with filial piety, who doesn't know that since the founding of Datang, there has been more than civil strife.

The Xuanwumen Incident alone occurred three times, two of which came out of the Emperor Taishang, and two of the abolished princes.

Li Shimin's palace became a usurpation of the throne, first seizing the throne of his brother and then his father's throne.

Then, Li Yuan later restored and seized his son's throne.

Later, Li Chengqian launched a palace rebellion and seized the throne of his father Li Shimin.

It can be said that the Li family is really messed up, how can there be any filial piety, it can be said that the father is not kind to the son and the son is not filial, the father and son turn against each other, and the brother kills each other.

But what is lacking is added, just like people choose names, those poor people like to take what rich and expensive they like, and those people from the family name their sons, they like to take righteousness and chastity.

Now Li Hong wants to give him Lao Tzu the nickname of filial piety, and add Zhuang, which is normal.

Emperor Xiaozhuang of the Great Sage of Wenwu.

"If you want to add two words again, Emperor Daguang Xiaozhuang, the great sage of civil and military affairs, how" "Okay."

Li Hong nodded.

Xu Shiji thought about it, yes, since the nickname has made eight characters, then just come to a set, and don't use Taizong for the temple number, use a louder highlight.

"How about the temple number with the Holy Ancestor" In any case, the ancestor is always higher than the zong.

Li Yuan was designated as Gaozu by Li Shimin, and was nicknamed Emperor Wu.

Now Li Shimin has set the temple number, if he only sets a sect, it is still a little insufficient.

After all, Li Shimin's life is too magnificent, especially in North America for the second time, and then building the Tang Dynasty, it is not an exaggeration to call his ancestors.

Generally, in addition to Taizu and Gaozu, there are ancestors.

The ancestors are generally founded by dynasties, connecting the previous and the next, and also creating a foundation, but they are not the founders of the dynasty.

Han Shizu and Liu Xiu are like this.

Shizu was not enough to show Li Shimin's merits in rebuilding the Tang Dynasty, so Xu Maogong founded a holy ancestral temple that had not been seen before.

Anyway, the name is eight words, and the innovation of the temple number is nothing.

Emperor Wenwu of the Holy Ancestor Great Sage Daguang Xiaozhuang.

This is really long enough, Li Hong thinks it's very good, Wu Meiniang originally thought that Taizong was good, but when she saw that her son agreed, she didn't say anything more.

The emperor's name and temple name were decided, and at the same time, he also decided to build a new capital and prepare to move the capital inland before the spirit.

But when it comes to it, there is a problem that cannot be avoided.

"Do Taishi and Taifu think the Central Plains will send troops to come?"

"Etiquette is not a funeral, it should not be."

Xu Shiji said.

The emperor is newly mourned, and according to the rules, he should not send troops to recruit at this time.

But Wu Meiniang didn't think so, in the final analysis, they were actually rebels in the eyes of the Central Plains.

Therefore, there is no rule that the two countries are at war and do not mourn.

Wei Chigong said, "Since the raising of troops, the Central Plains has not sent a single soldier to come, and it should not be sent now."

Wu Meiniang shook her head.

"Just because we didn't send troops at the beginning doesn't mean we don't send troops now.

The mourning family always has an intuition that this time Zhongyuan will definitely send troops to come. ” Xu Maogong and Wei Chigong couldn't help frowning.

The Central Plains sent troops to fight, this is a sharp sword that has been hanging over their heads for several years, making them worry all the time, but this sword has not fallen.

But Wu said it well, now this sword may be about to fall.
