Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 285 Get excited when you think about it

A red dragon appeared in the distance.

From a distance, one can see the banners and flags spreading out in the north wind, very powerful.

The crowd waiting outside the city stretched their necks happily and chatted excitedly.

Even if you can't see it, you can't help but praise it.

In short, I didn't think the court officers and soldiers were good before, but at this moment, I feel that the court officers and soldiers are good at everything, and everything is worthy of praise.

In addition, they were also very curious. They wanted to see what it was like to see tens of thousands of Jian prisoners being captured. They wanted to see it as soon as possible.

However, there were obviously no prisoners among the forwards, so everyone was discussing curiously.

"I don't know what the rules are for offering prisoners this time?"

"If you want me to tell you, it must be very grand. Compared with the time in the Wanli period, it is even more grand!"

"I think it's true. During the Wanli period, when the Japanese pirates were defeated, the imperial court offered captives in a grand manner. But this time today, there are tens of thousands of prisoners. Compared with any previous victory, it is more important!"

"That's right, what Jianlu is invincible, look, this time I finally vented my anger, the ceremony of presenting prisoners must be more grand!"

"..."

Amidst their discussions, the triumphant army got closer and closer.It can already be seen clearly that Sun Chuanting is at the forefront of the team.

After getting closer, the people outside the city cheered one after another, and finally gathered into one voice: "Daming is all victorious!"

If it is said that the war against the Japanese and the aid of Korea was a bit far away for the people of the capital and did not feel much impact, this time the battle of Jizhou really affected them.

If it is defeated, it will be another rampage of Jianlu, the people in the capital, their relatives and friends, and I don't know how many people will suffer!
Victory means that their homeland and their relatives and friends will be saved from catastrophe. Even in the future, they will feel at ease that there will be no more military disasters with a strong imperial army.

As a result, they certainly felt that this victory was far more important than any previous one.

It was the first time for the soldiers of the Beijing Camp and the Yongwei Battalion to see such a grand welcome scene. Hearing the voice of "Da Ming Wan Sheng" echoed for a long time, they all involuntarily straightened their waists and held their heads high.

Sun Chuanting saw that among the officials who greeted him first was the chief assistant He Fengsheng, so he dismounted quickly and walked over quickly.

He Fengsheng immediately greeted him with a smile, read out the imperial decree, and arranged for the triumphant troops to set up camp outside the city where the water laborers were separated.

After the reading, he smiled wryly and said to Sun Chuanting: "The regulations for presenting captives were all predetermined, which was even more grand than offering captives to Japanese pirates during the Wanli period. As a result, His Majesty regretted it the next day and proposed a new regulation for presenting captives." Mr. Sun, we have to make arrangements quickly, and it will be held the day after tomorrow."

"..." After hearing this, Sun Chuanting was speechless for a while, but he thought of something, and asked, "Is it the meaning of Emperor Taizu bestowing the treasure?"

After hearing this, He Fengsheng smiled wryly and said, "Who knows, anyway, this regulation is unheard of, just watch it, hurry up and do it!"

Sun Chuanting took the memorial that He Fengsheng gave him, and after reading it quickly, his eyes lit up and said: "At this moment, Your Majesty's new offer of prisoners is the best!"

Putting your hands together, you closed the memorial that said the new prisoner offering ceremony, nodded immediately and said, "Okay, after the camp is set up, I'll start making arrangements."

Then, without further ado, Sun Chuanting immediately led the army to the camp.

The people who went out of the city were a little surprised. They didn't expect that they would not enter the city.According to their thinking, it is definitely impossible for the army to enter the city, but it should be right to sacrifice the slave chiefs as prisoners.

As a result, neither did this!
Although they were all surprised, it did not hinder their enthusiasm for continuing to watch.Especially after passing through half of the army, when the troops escorting the prisoners passed by, they became agitated one by one, cursing these demons who killed people without blinking an eye and did all kinds of bad things.

If it weren't for the army in person, it is estimated that many people would rush over.

Inside the capital city, listening to the movement outside the city, everyone waited excitedly. After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement, so they became anxious.

Thanks to those who were well-informed, knowing that the prisoner presenting ceremony would be changed to the day after tomorrow, they rushed out of the city one by one to watch the fun first.I was just wondering why the prisoner offering ceremony had to be held back.

In fact, Sun Chuanting guessed correctly, it was really the reason he said.

After the great victory, the prisoner offering ceremony was naturally put on the charter.An ordinary prisoner offering ceremony is definitely not appropriate.The most grand one was the one that defeated Japanese pirates during the Wanli period. Emperor Wanli presided over it in person, right here at the Meridian Gate.

Chief Assistant He Fengsheng personally took the lead, and discussed the regulations with the Minister of Rites, which was a little more grand than that of Wanli, and reported it to Emperor Chongzhen for final decision.

Originally, Emperor Chongzhen felt very satisfied after reading it, so he made a decision.

As a result, at night, when Emperor Chongzhen and Liu Weichao made a video, he showed off to Liu Weichao his charter for offering prisoners.

Liu Weichao was also very interested in this, so he listened carefully to Emperor Chongzhen's introduction.

At the beginning of the prisoner offering, the ceremony guide guided the civil and military officials to stand in sequence outside the Meridian Gate, and led the officials who offered Lubu to place the victory report on the big case and return to their positions.

Afterwards, the general escorted the captives to the Meridian Gate, and stood behind the military officer shift on the west side. The clock rang loudly, and the Emperor Chongzhen was driving the Fengtian Gate (that is, the Gate of Supreme Harmony) in his ordinary clothes, and the bell stopped.

Afterwards, before Honglu Temple came to Yujia, he knelt down and asked Emperor Chongzhen to sit on his shoulders. At the same time, amidst the sound of ritual and music, Emperor Chongzhen came to the Meridian Gate Tower and ascended his seat.

The general blew his whip and the audience was solemn.The praise officer sang loudly: "Come in!"

Therefore, the officials who presented Lubu (the call for victory) bowed four times to the Meridian Gate, and the ritual music was played again, and the music stopped after Ping.

At this time, the praise officer sang again: "Enter Lubu!"

The music started again, and the deacon officials raised the case and placed it on the middle road in front of the Meridian Gate, and the music stopped.

The praise officer sings: "Xuanlubu!"

Xuanzhan officials knelt, and after laying down, the Xuanzhan officials and the exhibitors went to take the Lubu in front of the case, and knelt to announce the Lubu.

Then, the deacon lifted the big case and relocated it to the east of Yudao, and the ceremony guide guided Xianlubu and other officials to withdraw.

At this time, the praise officer sang: "Present prisoner!"

The general in charge of presenting the prisoners will escort the Jian prisoners to the place where the prisoners are presented, and the prisoners face north and kneel in front of the Meridian Gate.

Afterwards, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment knelt down in front of the Royal Road of the Meridian Gate, and two servants stood beside him, and played to Emperor Chongzhen: "Shangshu xxx, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, please behead Jianlu, and go to Shicao for execution, please order!"

Moreover, he also accused Jianlu of his crimes, and then bowed to the Meridian Gate.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen personally issued an order to the civil and military officials: "Take it"!
"Take it"!The two characters range from near to far, and the ministers and ministers around the emperor then shouted: "Take it!"
The officials and soldiers in the vicinity also responded accordingly, from two to four, from four to eight, from top to bottom of the Meridian Gate, until the 360 ​​Jinwu generals guarding in front of the Meridian Gate responded in unison. .

The meaning of taking it, the meaning of beheading at Caishikou, and passing it on to the world.

Emperor Chongzhen accepted the congratulations from all the officials, went to the Taimiao to worship, and presented the wine to his assistant ministers.Finally, the edict was issued.

After the whole process was finished, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "How?"

This was his most glorious moment, so it was naturally a bit of a show off.

But who knows, after Liu Weichao listened to it, he went through it again in his mind, then shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't think you're majestic or domineering enough, a prisoner offering!"

"Oh?" Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly asked when he heard it, "Then how can we be majestic and domineering?"

Of course he wanted this "prestige" and "dominance"!

After hearing this, Liu Weichao smiled and said to him: "As far as I am concerned, your prisoner offering ceremony is a bit highbrow and boring!"

"..." Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and then asked with some doubts, "Qu Gao and few? What do you mean?"

Liu Weichao saw that he didn't understand, so he reminded him: "You present the prisoner, is it for yourself, or for your civil and military officials, or for the common people?"

Speaking of this, before Emperor Chongzhen could speak, he went on to say to him: "I told you before that the most important thing is to win the hearts and minds of the people. For your great victory, you have to publicize your martial arts, win the hearts of the people, and let Everyone in the world understands how powerful the imperial army is, and the pacification of the world is just around the corner. Therefore, it is best to combine it with a military parade so that everyone can see how powerful the Ming army is, understand?"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen thought about it for a while, but before he could figure it out, Liu Weichao said to him with a smile: "Wait a minute, I'll send you a video of the military parade, you feel it first!"

"Okay, then I will wait and see!" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but look forward to it when he heard it.

After hanging up the video, he waited for a short time when there was a sound from the phone, and a video arrived.

Emperor Chongzhen saw it and quickly clicked on it.

This video is the most recent military parade by Liu Weichao, a very grand one.

Emperor Chongzhen was attracted just by looking at it, especially when the phalanxes passed by, he was immediately attracted by the mighty aura.

After a long time, after reading it, he immediately contacted Liu Weichao and said excitedly: "I understand, I want to show the prestige of the Yongwei Battalion and the Beijing Battalion to the people of the world, together with the ceremony of presenting prisoners, so that the people of the world know , I have the strength to pacify the world!"

"Hehe, that's right!" Liu Weichao listened and said with a smile, "Show off the military power! So, let me design it for you, how about it?"

He was also joining in the fun, thinking of such an important military parade for the presentation of prisoners, if it was done by him, he would get excited just thinking about it, so he just mentioned it.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen immediately agreed without thinking about it.

So, there was this temporary change of mind.

Under Liu Weichao's emergency directorship, the real day of presenting prisoners came soon.
