Datang Dynasty: The bloodbath in Tiance’s mansion at the beginning

Seeing Li Chengdao finally legally ascending the Dragon Throne,

Wei Zheng and other former members of the East Palace were so excited that they burst into tears.

They entered the East Palace for many years and have been waiting for this day.

Although he did not wait until Prince Li Jiancheng came to the throne, the same thing happened when his eldest son came to the throne.

The neutral faction headed by Li Jing was already impressed by Li Chengdao in the court yesterday.

Now that Li Chengdao has ascended the throne, they are also very happy.

The happiest person is the old man from the former Prince Qin's Mansion.

After Li Shimin's death, the entire Tiance Mansion completely collapsed.

They had been trembling with fear before, fearing that Li Chengdao would be unhappy and kill them directly.

But yesterday, after Li Chengdao pardoned Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others.

They suddenly felt that Prince Anlu seemed to be quite a nice person.

Today Li Chengdao ascends the throne as emperor, and they no longer pose a threat.

As long as they don't cause trouble in the future and do things as they are told, Li Chengdao probably won't settle old scores.

This little life was saved!

Li Chengdao looked at the civil and military officials and began to announce his first decree after taking the throne.

"Today I have been honored as a great treasure and succeeded to the throne. It should be celebrated by the whole country."

"However, the former prince’s body is still cold, so I decided to postpone the enthronement ceremony!"

"After the mourning period for the former prince has passed, he will worship his ancestors and worship the heavens, and then hold the enthronement ceremony on a certain date!"

"Because I am the emperor, the former prince should not be buried as a prince."

"I decided to honor the former crown prince as Emperor Xiaokang, give him the temple name of Xingzong, and bury him in the mausoleum according to the standards of an emperor!"

"What do you think?"

When all the officials heard this, they all knelt down and worshiped.

"My Holy Emperor!"

According to etiquette, after Li Jiancheng passed away, Li Chengdao had to observe mourning for three years.

But the emperor has special privileges, and July 749 is already the limit.

What's more, Li Chengdao is not prepared to waste his time on this.

At that time, it will be left to the people in the Ministry of Rites to handle it. He only needs to visit occasionally.

The enthronement ceremony will not be affected.

Li Yuan's Zen edict has been issued, and the entire world belongs to him.

Not only does he have the status of emperor The name and the status of emperor are just lacking in etiquette.

What's more, he delayed due to filial piety, and the etiquette and laws of the world are on his side.

Li Chengdao raised his hand to let everyone stand up, and began to read out his second decree

"I ascend the throne as emperor and honor my mother, concubine Zheng, as the empress dowager, and temporarily reside in the East Palace."

"Yiwei Chariot General Feng Li, for his meritorious service in escorting the cavalry, was granted the title of Ning Guogong and became the commander of the patrol battalion!"

"Xue Wanche, the deputy guard of the army, has meritorious service in guarding the army. He is granted the title of Duke of the town and is the commander of the Gyeonggi camp!"

"As a member of the East Palace Guards, the living will be promoted to three levels in a row, their salary will be doubled, and the deceased will be rewarded and buried with a generous burial, and their pension will be ten times the amount!"

"The rest of the people will wait until I ascend the throne and then give another reward!"

After Li Chengdao finished speaking, Feng Li and Xue Wanche came forward and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, Feng Li/Xue Wanche, takes this order to thank you!"

The patrol battalion is in charge of patrolling the capital, and the Gyeonggi camp protects the safety of the capital.

These two positions are very important positions.

Once the two betrayed, the consequences would be disastrous.

Just like Cheng Yu, the former commander of the Gyeonggi camp, Li Shimin became a feudal prince Capture him.

Directly betray Li Yuan and become the flag of Li Shimin's rebellion.

But the loyalty of Feng Li and Xue Wanche is absolute.

Otherwise, they would not have risked their lives yesterday to save Li Chengdao's life.

With them guarding With these two positions, Li Chengdao was very relieved.

As for the East Palace and the imperial guards, naturally let Lieyang and Zhuoguang control them.

Both of them are 100% loyal to Li Chengdao, and they are powerful. One-third of Lu Buzhi With their presence, Li Chengdao could sleep peacefully at night.

After all, they would never be incited to rebel.

After reading out these two decrees, Li Chengdao looked at everyone

"Sirs, do you have anything else to present?"

Wei Zheng took a step to the right and raised the wat board.

"I have this memorial!"

Li Chengdao is happy today and doesn't care if Wei Zheng misses it.

And it's such a good day today, so he probably won't take it upon himself.

Li Chengdao smiled and raised his hand,"What's the matter, Ai Qing?"

Wei Zheng bowed and said:

"His Majesty is enthroned for the first time and needs a respected master of etiquette to preside over the enthronement ceremony!"

"I think that the former Prince of the East Palace, Zhongyun, Wang Gui and Wang Shujie, is worthy of a great responsibility!"

Wang Gui was originally Li Jiancheng's confidant, but he was exiled to Xi (xi) Prefecture because of his involvement in Yang Wenqian's case.

Two years ago, Prince Li Jiancheng sent a batch of armor to his confidant Yang Wenqian. This was an extremely normal thing.

Just Li Shimin's Tiance Admiral's Mansion even had craftsmen who forged armor and weapons.

However, Li Shimin took the opportunity to falsely accuse Li Jiancheng of treason. Li Yuan believed it was true and had Li Jiancheng imprisoned. Li Yuan asked Li Shimin to go to conquer Yang Wenqian and promised that he would do it when he came back. Make him the prince!

Li Shimin went happily and returned soon after completing the task.

But Li Yuan had found out the truth and found that Li Jiancheng had not rebelled at all.

So he was released and restored to the position of prince.

And Li Shimin, naturally what None of them were caught.

At this time, Li Yuan started his strange operation!

For the sake of the so-called brotherly harmony, he decided to fight fifty times each.

He exiled one of Li Shimin's men and Wang Gui of the East Palace together!

This case was originally In an unjust case, Wang Gui was innocently implicated.

Li Jiancheng knew it, Li Shimin knew it, and Li Yuan also knew it. Li Jiancheng was helpless, and Li Shimin didn't say anything. Li Yuan pretended to be crazy and acted like a fool.

It was from that incident that Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin became a mortal enemy. Enemies.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were old acquaintances with Wang Gui.

After hearing Wei Zheng's words, they also stood up.

"The enthronement ceremony is particularly important, and no one should host it if it is inappropriate to follow the rules of etiquette!"

"Wang Gui is rigorous in his studies and is especially good at etiquette. He is the perfect choice to host the ceremony!"

The thoughts of the three people are also Li Chengdao's thoughts.

If there is anyone in the contemporary era who can take on this important task, it must be Wang Gui.

Li Chengdao waved his hand,"It's accurate!"

"Immediately issue an order to Xizhou to summon Wang Gui back to the palace to preside over the ceremony!"

"Wei Zheng, I’ll leave this matter to you!

Wei Zheng cupped his hands and said,"I accept the order!""........
