Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 1048

[Chapter 1048]

Palace of Political Affairs.

The ministers are divided into two classes, civil and military, standing in the north and south.

When Liang Cheng stepped forward and unfolded the imperial decree, everyone bowed slightly and lowered their heads.

At this time, Liang Cheng said: “The vitality is born, and the tree is based on the king. There is a destiny, and it is assisted by virtue. The heart of heaven and the people, the selection of talents and abilities, and the joy of promoting them from all over the world are not unique to one person.”

“I am here .” For thirty-six years, there was great chaos and fainting, the group of vicious rebels rebelled, and the universe was overthrown. Relying on King Yan’s martial arts, it is difficult to save it from all directions, so as to protect our ancestral temple.

” The great cause of the world is the descending of the emperor’s spirit, the man and the gods call, the birth is only brilliant, God bestows my life, I respect and humble myself to be in the king of Yan, allow me to hold it, and serve it to all nations, so as to inherit the great rule, I admire this!”

Liang Liang Cheng’s old voice echoed in the hall.

After the imperial decree was read, all the ministers said in unison, “Long live my emperor!”

At this moment, Zhao Heng stood up and came to Zhao Xu with the imperial seal in hand.

Zhao Xu made a gesture of refusal, and then Zhao Heng handed the Yuxi seal to Zhao Xu again.

After repeating this three times, Zhao Xu took over the Yuxi seal.

This is the three-push and three-yield ceremony when sitting in the Zen seat, but it was arranged by the Ministry of Rites.

Although Zhao Xu found it very troublesome, his ascension to the throne was after all a matter that the whole Da Song and his enemies were concerned about, so there was nothing wrong with being solemn and cumbersome.

After Zhao Xu formally received the Yuxi seal, Zhao Heng, supported by Liang Cheng, slowly walked down the steps and walked out of the hall.

“Farewell to the Supreme Emperor!” At this time, the ministers shouted again, which was regarded as the last farewell to the former emperor.

After Zhao Heng’s figure disappeared, Zhao Xu came to the dragon chair and sat down slowly.

In an instant, the civil and military ministers shouted at the same time, “Long live my emperor! Long live, long live!”

The voices of the ministers came out, and the three thousand forbidden soldiers outside the hall also shouted in unison, “Long live my emperor, long live, long live.”

The voices of the forbidden soldiers were extremely loud, and they spread directly from the palace to the street outside.

The common people knew that this was King Yan officially sitting on the dragon chair and becoming the emperor they praised.

As a result, they either danced or hugged each other and wept with joy, and the sound of “Long Live” shook the sky.

As for the Promise Palace and the Political Hall, after the ministers shouted long live, they could no longer maintain the serious expressions on their faces, and all of them were smiling.

Zhao Xu looked at the officials with a faint smile on his face.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to be emperor, this is naturally impossible.

He was inappropriate before because it was not yet the time.

Now that Da Song is thriving, he is no longer passive in foreign wars but active, and he should also sit on the throne of emperor.

Since then, he has competed for world hegemony with the monarchs of the world as the Great Song Emperor.

However, although Zhao Heng’s Zen position procedure has passed, the new emperor’s ascension to the throne still requires the new emperor’s own etiquette procedures to go.

So, he gave Xiao Guizi a look.

This kid has replaced Liang Cheng and is the chief eunuch of the palace.

Xiao Guizi nodded, unable to hide the joy in her eyes.

Holding the imperial decree written by Zhao Xu himself, he recited at the court, “Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said, I only have the virtues of Huang Chang and Wang Hua in the palace. The history of Fangliu Tong and the ceremony of the mother are used in the family state. Bing Let Fan take Chengxiu, Xihong’s name to take the throne, Zier Princess Yang, is the daughter of Xuanwu Army General Yang Zhen, auspicious Zhong Qili, diligent and thrifty in Lanye, and sincere and filial in Jiaowei.

” Order, life is treasured by the book, and I am the queen, Qinzai!”

After reading the edict for Yang Susu, Xiao Guizi read the edict for Luan’er and Feng’er one by one.

Next, under the arrangement of the Ministry of Rituals, Zhao Xu went to the Taimiao to offer sacrifices to his ancestors. He was busy until noon, and the entire ritual procedure was completed.

On the way back to the imperial palace from the Taimiao, Chen Shou and Wang Chong suddenly came out and said with a smile, “Congratulations to the emperor on his ascension to the throne. We thought that your highness prepared a big gift, just to express the wishes of our ministers.” The

two of them did not Credit goes to both the airship and the ironclad warship, which are the brainchild of everyone, not their own.

“Then I will wait and see.” Zhao Xu laughed.

He knew very well that the two had prepared a lot of time for this matter.

Wang Chong and Chen Shou looked at each other, and then led Zhao Xu to the canal port outside the south gate of Yan City.

The kings of the vassal states also went with them.

When they arrived at the place, the imperial guards separated Zhao Xu and his party from the common people. In the inner circle were Zhao Xu, the ministers and the king of the vassal state, and outside were the crowded common people.

Wang Chong and Chen Shou accompanied Zhao Xu to wait at the port, with mysterious smiles on their faces.

Not long after, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd, all of them looked up and pointed at the sky.

Originally, a huge airship was coming from west to east, slowly moving towards the port.

The airship is very long, a full 50 meters, with a rectangular closed pod hanging below it.

The pod has windows, and people can be vaguely seen moving inside.

On either side of the pod are two propellers that are constantly spinning.

“Your Majesty, this is my minister’s gift, the airship.” Wang Chong said.

Zhao Xu nodded, with a smile on his face, “Yes, I am very satisfied. This thing came at the right time. You can make more of them, and they will come in handy soon.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Wang Chongxi said .

At this time, unlike Zhao Xu’s calmness, many ministers and common people who had never seen an airship were dumbfounded.

As the airship got closer and flew over their heads, they became more and more shocked.

The kings of the vassal states also grew their mouths and couldn’t close them for a long time.

If it is not known in advance that this is something made by Da Song.

They thought it was a huge bird of prey.

“What is that!” Just as the ministers and the people had not recovered from the impact brought by the airship, some sharp-eyed people shouted.

It turned out that when everyone’s eyes were attracted by the airship, a silver-gray battleship was approaching from the east to the west of the canal.

In addition to the traditional mast of a sailing warship, this battleship also has four smoke exhaust columns.

The biggest difference, of course, is the thick armor covered by the outer shell of the battleship.

This is Dasong’s first ironclad ship.

“Your Majesty, please cover your ears.” Chen Shou reminded.

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, “I can bear it.”

“Then it will begin.” Chen Shou chuckled and ordered the semaphore to issue an order to the battleship.

“Boom boom boom…” Immediately, the turret on the ironclad ship spun around, making a huge roar, and huge flames and thick smoke came out of the gun muzzle.

The sudden shelling frightened the people, and many people’s legs became weak immediately.

But seeing that no shells exploded after the cannon fire, they felt relieved.

“Your Majesty, this is a gift from my minister, the Ironclad Ship.” Chen Shou said solemnly.

Zhao Xu nodded slowly, with a wider smile on his face, “Just like Wang Chong’s gift, I like it very much, and I am looking forward to the launch of other ironclad ships.”

“Please rest assured, your majesty, they will be delivered to the navy as scheduled. “Chen Shou bowed and lowered his head.
