Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

On the first day of November, the weather was fine.

The whole city of Yazhou was decorated with lanterns and festoons, people were neatly dressed, some even put on new clothes and hats prepared for the New Year, and flocked to the streets of Yazhou, which was even more grand than the festival.

Many people have never been to Yazhou City in their entire lives. When they heard that the emperor was enthroned, they came all the way ahead of time. They wanted to see the beauty of the sky. Are they legends like gods?

Guan Shan and Liu Xiaowei were in charge of the city defense. This task was extremely heavy. They could not prevent the common people from admiring the holy face, but also maintained the order in the city and ensured Xiao Yu's safety.

Pei Linzhi arranged a lot of guards around Xiao Yu, including Lai Feng, Xiang Yang, Ji Hai and some elite soldiers selected from the army, in order to prevent the assassins sent from the north from hiding in the crowd and ready to assassinate at any time.

Pei Linzhi's insistence on allowing Xiao Yu to ascend the throne in Yazhou was also due to security reasons. If he was in Guangzhou and he was unfamiliar with the place, it would be extremely easy to create opportunities for the enemy if he wanted to hold such a grand event.

In Yazhou, at least the security is still controllable, even if there are assassins, the number will be very small.

Xiao Yu woke up at Yin Shizhong that day, and Qingyou, Shuangluo, Yu'er and Xiaochun began to groom him early in the morning.Comb your hair, change your clothes, and put on a new one from the inside to the outside, red and black on the inside, and the outermost black and red-edged gown is embroidered with golden dragons and blessings and longevity patterns.

The emperor's uniform was produced in less than a month, and it must have been the painstaking work of the embroiderers.Xiao Yu felt heavy wearing it.

Pei Linzhi came in from the outside: "Lang Jun, no, is Your Majesty fully dressed?"

Xiao Yu turned around and looked at Pei Linzhi with a silly smile.Looking at his uniform, Pei Linzhi felt his heart throbbing. Mr. Lang is really suitable for such a formal attire.

Xiao Yu beckoned to him, Pei Linzhi leaned closer: "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Xiao Yu covered his mouth with his hand: "Isn't this really stupid?" It was like singing an opera.

Pei Linzhi raised the corners of his lips, and whispered in Xiao Yu's ear, "No, it's very pretty, very pretty!"

Xiao Yu blinked: "Really?" It's a pity that he didn't have a mirror, so he couldn't see what he was wearing at all.

Pei Linzhi said: "Really. I will crown His Majesty."

Xiao Yu looked at the twelve-pronged crown beside the table, and the beads on it were all made of suet jade beads of the same size. You don't need to try it to know that it must be heavy, so you shook your head: "It's better to wait until later, before going out. Dai. I'm afraid it's inconvenient."

"Alright, Lang—Your Majesty has been busy all morning, let's have breakfast first, and we're almost ready to go when we're done." Pei Linzhi obviously couldn't get used to changing his words. He's called Lang Jun for so long, and now he wants to change it to Your Majesty, he is not without disappointment.

If it is called Lang Jun, it is still his Lang Jun, and if it is called His Majesty, then it is His Majesty of the world, which also means that he is getting farther and farther away from himself.

But these were all caused by him alone. Although he had regrets, he did not regret it.

Everyone in the mansion is very serious today, and everyone has put on new clothes.Everyone wearing new clothes was obviously a little cautious, as if they couldn't even get used to raising their arms and legs.

As soon as Xiao Yu entered the dining room, everyone sat upright, didn't even speak a word, and didn't dare to breathe.Seeing everyone's cautious look, Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing: "What's the matter? It won't be after today, and everyone will abandon me in the future, right?"

Xiao Yao chuckled: "Brother Huang, you know that in ancient times, the emperor called himself a lonely and widowed person. If you become an emperor, you will be a lonely family and a widow. You have to be mentally prepared."

Xiao Yu said: "If this is the case, then what's the point of being an emperor? Everyone, relax a bit and don't be restrained. Although the emperor's words are true, I will definitely not be an emperor of words. I am above the emperor. There is also the law. Even if he is an emperor, everything he does must comply with the requirements of the law. Otherwise, who would not be afraid of an emperor who can kill people with his mouth? An incompetent emperor will be a disaster for the people of the world."

Xiao Yao blinked: "What the emperor said is very true. Then what the emperor means is to follow the Qin system and rule the country with legalism?"

Xiao Yu shook his head: "It's not just the legalist theory. Look at the regimes of the Hu people in the west and north. I don't know how many times they have changed. Many ethnic groups and cultures have been lost in the long river of history. Only the culture of our Han people has always been It continues to this day. Why? Because we Han people are pragmatists, and we don’t have to stick to a certain theory, whatever is useful and useful, from all over the world.”

Pei Linzhi's eyes showed admiration, and Mr. Lang's insights are always refreshing and admirable: "Your Majesty is very reasonable. The reason why our Han culture has a long history and lasts for a long time is precisely because we have been learning all the time. in, rather than resting on our laurels.”

A Ping, who was wearing a beautiful dress, stumbled in from the outside. He habitually ran towards Xiao Yu's chairman, stopped halfway, and looked up at Xiao Yu who was wearing new clothes, with joy in his eyes: "Lang Jun, so beautiful!"

Xiao Yu looked at little Aping: "Baby, come here quickly. It's time to eat. Aping is also wearing new clothes today, so pretty."

A Ping walked up to Xiao Yu's side, and reached out to touch the blessing pattern embroidered on his lower garment, Pei Linzhi said, "A Ping, you can't touch your Majesty's clothes now."

A Ping withdrew his hand, raised his head and looked at them, Xiao Yu said, "It's okay, let's touch it."

Pei Linzhi said to A Ping: "Your Majesty's clothes must be touched after the sacrifice."

A Ping was almost torn apart by the two adults, Lai Feng hurried over: "A Ping, come to my place, let's have dinner together."

Xiao Yu looked at Pei Linzhi helplessly, and said, "Are you going to eat somewhere else?"

Pei Linzhi originally planned this way, Xiao Yu will be the emperor in the future, and he can no longer sit on an equal footing with him, but he couldn't help hesitating when he heard his disappointed tone, he looked at the other people at the table, who were looking at himself in silence .Pei Linzhi said: "No, my lord and I still have dinner at the same table." Then he sat down in his old seat.

Xiao Yu finally smiled with satisfaction. He really didn't want to change his relationship with everyone just because he changed his name.

Seeing that Pei Linzhi sat down simply, the people at the table couldn't help but feel relieved. This meant that His Majesty really treated them as before, and they didn't have to be so restrained.

After the court meal, Pei Linzhi personally put on the twelve-pronged crown for Xiao Yu.They boarded a golden root cart pulled by six horses, set off from the mansion, and entered the already crowded North-South Street.

During the parade of the Son of Heaven, Yazhou City was an empty alley for thousands of people. Everyone gathered on both sides of the north and south streets. Many young people climbed up the big trees on the side of the road early because of their skills, waiting to see the true face of the Son of Heaven.

The car was uncovered, Xiao Yu sat in the middle, Pei Linzhi, Lai Feng, Xiang Yang and Ji Hai each occupied a corner.A Ping followed Liang Wang and sat in the four-horse carriage behind, watching the excitement with great interest.

Xiao Yu maintained a standard smile showing his teeth, raising his hand from time to time to wave to the people beside the road.

The little daughters-in-law and the big girls in the crowd were all stunned, oh my god, the emperor actually looks as good-looking as a god, he really is a descendant of heaven and man.

Some people beside the road couldn't help shouting: "Long live the emperor, long live!"

Some people even knelt down to worship, and some took the lead, and more and more people knelt down, and finally, a large group knelt down.

Xiao Yu looked distressed and helpless. He stood up and raised his hand to signal: "Followers, get up. From now on, whether you meet me or an official, you don't need to kneel anymore. This is the first day I took office. A new rule is set! People in Yazhou, get up!"

Even so, few people who knelt down got up, Xiao Yu was helpless, it seemed that this article was about to be written into the law.

Xiao Yu marched all the way, and finally stopped in front of the temporary altar built at the end of North Street, and Meng Hong presided over the activity of offering sacrifices to heaven.According to the rehearsal process of the previous two days, Xiao Yu began to sacrifice to heaven and read out the imperial edict.

After everyone's repeated discussions, it was finally decided not to change the name of the country for the time being, because now Xiao Yu was playing in the name of the former prince, and he wanted to recruit the old ministers of An Anguo.

Once he changed the name of the country, it would be a crime of treason. For the majority of scholars, it would be a real betrayal, and it would also have a certain impact on the recruitment of talents from all over the world.

After sacrificing to heaven and reading out the edict, the enthronement ceremony is over.

Xiao Yu and his party went to the governor's mansion again, and went to court for the first time.Discuss meritorious deeds in the court, and confer titles on meritorious officials.

He granted Pei Linzhi the title of Duke Protector, and authorized the distance between him and Xiao Yu to remain the same as before; King Liang's title remained the same, but changed his name to King Zhenbei. He never forgot the northern territory, and hoped that one day He was able to personally lead his troops to take back the land that Xi Rong had robbed.

Except for these two who were knighted, the rest received official positions.Min Chong was promoted to Minister of the Household Department, in charge of population and taxation; Yao Tao was promoted to governor of Yazhou, in charge of Yazhou affairs.

Lai Feng, Xiang Yang, and Ji Hai all took the post of bodyguard with a knife in front of the imperial court, but Guan Shan, because he often followed Pei Linzhi to lead troops in battle, and had outstanding military exploits, he was named General Zhonglang, taking over Min Chong's original position.

Moreover, Guan Shan will stay in Yazhou in the future and lead the three armies for Yao Tao, the governor of Yazhou.

After he was conferred a title and became an official, Xiao Yu discussed with everyone what he was about to do next. Of course, the most important thing was to move to Guangzhou, and he was going to leave in the near future, so it couldn't be delayed any longer.

Xiao Yu didn't know much about the situation in Guangzhou, so he was a little apprehensive.

When I got home, I found that everyone in the family had already started packing their bags.

Seeing that everyone was getting busy, Xiao Yu asked, "Who told you to pack up so early?"

Xiao Chun stopped: "Responding to His Majesty's words, it was Pei Lang—my father-in-law's request, and he said that the things can be collected."

Xiao Yu waved his hand: "Put it away. Don't rummage through my stuff in the study. I will clean it up myself."

When Xiao Yu returned to the room, he felt exhausted. He fell on the bed weakly, but he forgot that he was wearing a crown on his head, and fell down defenselessly. The back of the crown hit his hair and pulled It hurt for a while, and he cried out in pain.

Pei Linzhi appeared immediately: "Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?"

Xiao Yu supported his upper body with one arm, touched his scalp with one hand, and looked at Pei Linzhi with aggrieved face.

Pei Linzhi hurried over: "Your Majesty, let me pick it for you."

"Still calling!" Xiao Yu said unhappily.

"Lang—Xiao Yu, do you have a headache? Let me take the crown for you."

"Ang." Xiao Yu was satisfied now.
