The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 783 Emperor Mausoleum
Strictly speaking, Zhao Weilong's incident was just an appetizer, and the main event was the second incident.

No matter whether Zhao Yanxun proclaims that he is the Son of Destiny or a living saint, he can't change the most basic one, that is... filial piety.

Guochao ruled the world with filial piety. This slogan has been shouted in the land of China for more than 1000 years.

In the hearts of the world, the holiness of immortals and Buddhas must also obey the righteousness of filial piety, which means that Zhao Yanxun must also abide by this, otherwise his sanctity will be weakened.

Therefore, if you really want to violate this rule, you have to let other people take the blame.

The ministers will definitely not be willing, after all, it will leave an eternal infamy, let alone one or two ministers.

But the clan is different. These people can neither fight nor calm the people. More importantly, they do not have the right to speak out in public opinion. It can be said that they have neither value nor energy. They are the best targets for "bullying".

More importantly, although the burial of the first emperor was a state affair, it was also a family affair of the Zhao royal family, so it was reasonable for these clans to express their opinions.

Zhao Yanxun started, and all the vassal kings present looked at each other, and each of them remained silent with a tacit understanding.

What happened to Zhao Weilong caught everyone present off guard.

After a "negotiation", Zhao Yanxun deposed Zhao Weilong as a commoner in their name, and this matter is likely to be infamous.

Now that it involves the burial of Emperor Tai'an, this matter has made everyone more cautious, after all, this matter has more ties to it.

After taking a sip of tea, Zhao Yanxun gently put down the teacup, and glanced at Zhao Weiheng standing in front of him.

Although the latter was young, he also understood what Zhao Yanxun meant at this moment, so he could only bite the bullet and stand up.

Although he is young, he has grown a lot after experiencing so many things, and understands the benefits of many things.

"Uncle Wang, it has been more than a year since the death of the late emperor, but the coffin is still in Changle Palace. My nephew thinks it is really inappropriate!"

As Zhao Weiheng said, everyone present listened carefully, because this was probably what Zhao Yanxun meant.

In today's world, if Zhao Yanxun's thoughts are not allowed, it will be very dangerous for these feudal lords.

"People in the world say that it is safe to enter the soil. My dynasty governs the world with filial piety. My nephew thinks... the late emperor should be buried as soon as possible, so that the spirit of the late emperor in heaven will be safe!"

This is indeed what Zhao Yanxun meant. Nowadays, the food problem is serious, and tens of thousands of young and strong are used to build mausoleums for production, which is extremely wasteful in Zhao Yanxun's view.

With Zhao Weiheng bringing up the topic, Zhao Yanxun took advantage of the situation and said: "But now the mausoleum is only preliminary completed, such a burial... I'm afraid it will not conform to the etiquette system!"

The so-called preliminary completion is only the completion of the temples and tombs on the ground, and there are no other supporting buildings.

When Zhao Yanxun said these words, it was tantamount to standing up and down, and at the same time it confused everyone.

To bury or not to bury?

At this time, Zhao Yanyuan stood up and said, "Ninth brother, the etiquette and law system are all based on filial piety, how can we put the cart before the horse, and my brother agrees with Wei Heng's meaning!"

Although it was against Zhao Yanxun, Zhao Yanyuan's words instantly made everyone understand the situation.

"Ninth brother, this is also what I mean. Father has suffered too much in his life, let him rest in peace earlier!" Zhao Yansong even had a tear on his face when he said this.

It can be said that all four of them are actors, and they are very good actors.

"But after all...it's not in line with etiquette!" Zhao Yanxun showed a look of embarrassment, looking like a filial son.

"Everyone, how do you think... how to deal with this matter?"

Finally, Zhao Yanxun kicked the ball over, forcing the silent kings to accept the move.

How to deal with it?Of course, it was following Zhao Yanxun's wishes, and I didn't care about the infamy in the future. After all, living in peace is the first priority.

As the de facto eldest son of Emperor Tai'an, Prince Ding Zhao Yanyi stood up, bowed and said: "Your Highness, I think... that the emperor should be buried in time!"

"The late emperor was murdered by Zhao Weilong, and his spirit was disturbed. If he could not be buried for a long time, I don't know how much suffering the father and the old man will suffer in the sky!"

Speaking of recently, Zhao Yanyi also shed tears, this guy is also an acting school.

Even if he was reprimanded, it was because he was too filial to disregard the etiquette and law system, which was relatively nicer.

"Yeah... all the clan members are right!"

"The late emperor passed away a long time ago, so he should be buried sooner..."

All of a sudden, all the vassals in the palace expressed the same meaning.

After gesturing for everyone to be quiet, Zhao Yanxun stood up and said, "This matter is handled by the Ministry of Rites and Industry. Since you all have this heart, you can submit a joint name to the imperial court. I think the imperial court will make a judgment!"

The feudal kings looked at each other, and finally, under the leadership of Zhao Yanyuan and the two, they agreed to the matter very simply.

Just when Zhao Yanxun was about to propose that everyone present worship Emperor Tai'an with him, Lin Quan, the supervisor of editorial affairs, entered the hall.

"My lord, the great victory in the Southwest..."

How could Lin Quan not say such good news out loud.

Everyone present knew that there was a war in the Southwest, and they were all attracted by Lin Quan's words at the moment, and they all speculated about what kind of victory it was.

Compared to the astonishment of everyone present, Zhao Yanxun was extremely calm.

I saw him walking down the imperial steps, came among the vassal kings, and asked slowly: "How is the situation?"

"Reporting to the lord, the great victory in the southwest, Rongcheng has been captured, from the rebel Li Jinzhong down, a total of 52 people have been captured!"

In less than a month, not only Rongcheng was taken, but people like Li Jinzhong were also captured alive, and everyone in the hall was shocked again.

Previously, the imperial court's confidants were in serious trouble, and here Zhao Yanxun was similar to pigs and dogs. The contrast was too strong.

"Congratulations Ninth Brother, regaining the Southwest!" Zhao Yansong was the first to announce the good news.

Immediately, everyone also followed to congratulate, and the original tense atmosphere in the hall has eased a lot at this moment.

After everyone quieted down, Lin Quan continued: "My lord, General Chen Yuhe, please show me how to deal with Li Jinzhong and others!"

"All those above the third grade will be chopped off, and their homes will be confiscated..."

What is vigorous and resolute?Zhao Yanxun explained it simply.

His light words would kill at least a dozen high-ranking officials, but he didn't hesitate at all.

At this moment, everyone woke up. The person in front of them was not just a "virtuous king" who cherished his reputation, but also a murderous person who raised troops to seize power.

When everyone's thoughts changed, Zhao Yanxun continued: "Others, let the Ministry of Punishment send someone to deal with them!"

"They rebelled and ruined many families. They must not be lightly spared!"

"Yes, I will pass on orders to you, servant girl!" Lin Quan answered cautiously.

Then this fellow withdrew from the main hall, leaving Zhao Yanxun standing among the vassal kings alone.

"Everyone, the Southwest has been decided, and the next step is to take down the five counties in the South. Our Great Jin will soon be unified. Congratulations!"

"I'm afraid you don't know yet, King Ning in the south is rebellious, and he is leading the coalition forces of the five counties, and wants to go north to fight with me!"

When he said this, Zhao Yanxun had a smile on his face, as if he was telling a joke.

Immediately, King Hui Zhao Yanchun said: "Prince Ning is a wolf with ambition, and his crime should be punished!"

The other people were also indignant and scolded King Ning bloody.

After all, most of the people present were descendants of King Qin's lineage, so they were naturally hostile to the waste brother's lineage.

"Okay, don't get upset about these little things, now that the Southwest has won a great victory, you and I are going to pay homage to the late emperor!"

"Presumably after hearing these good news, the old man will feel more at ease in the sky!"

Zhao Yanxun just finished speaking, only to hear Zhao Yanyuan flatteringly said: "It all depends on Brother Ninth's use of soldiers like a god, and I am worthy of the love and appreciation for Brother Ninth when my father was alive!"

Someone started, and all the flattery came out for a while, and then they surrounded Zhao Yanxun and went to Changle Palace.
