Chapter 1008 Opening Ceremony(1/2)
Finally, it was the sixth day of December.
Fan Chengmo was so excited that he didn't sleep all night.
He is still very young, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little uncomfortable when he is preparing to do something that shocks the world for the first time.
Today is the Dagan Dynasty officially surrendering to Northern Chu. The ceremony was held at the Temple of Heaven on the east side of Yongdingmen Nei Street in the south city.
The Temple of Heaven is a place where the emperor sacrifices to the heavens and prays for a bumper harvest. It covers an area of more than 40 hectares and can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
At the hour of Mao, just dawn, Fan Chengmo changed into military uniforms and rode his horse slowly towards the Temple of Heaven.
Many people along the way were in the same direction as him.
When passing by Zhushikou, Fan Chengmo held the reins and stood there for a while.
Today, Shu Aixing is still responsible for the security in the city. The Chu army will be handed over after the Gan Dynasty officially surrenders.
Looking at him, he saw that Gan Jun, who was patrolling the street, was mostly regretful and reluctant on his face, and obviously he was still interested in Gan Chao.
This made Fan Chengmo feel a little relieved.
He had not talked to Shu Aixing about his plans, and he knew that Shu Aixing still supported surrender.
But as long as Wang Xiao dies, I believe that Shu Aixing's decisiveness will immediately change his mind and lead his army to attack the Chu army.
...
When he entered the Zhaoheng Gate of Temple of Heaven, Fan Chengmo saw that Fan Wencheng was busy making final preparations.
Fan Wencheng seemed very tired. Recently, he has grown a lot, his back has become bent, and he often distracted when speaking.
Fan Chengmo felt very distressed when he saw his father like this.
He knew that his father's lifelong ambition was to be comparable to his ancestor Fan Wenzhenggong, and even surpass his ancestors to create a prosperous country for later generations, becoming a famous prime minister and prime minister.
My father wanted to become a famous minister like Zhang Liang of the Han Dynasty, and he wanted to become Zhang Liang.
My father was Zhang Liang, the famous prime minister who founded the country with "the survival of the Han industry and the rise and fall of the Han industry", and he was Zhang Liang, the young man who "attacked the Emperor of Qin in the sand of Bolang"...
"Bo Langzhi shook the world and was shocked, even though the tiger and wolf were violent, there was no Qin!"
Thinking of this, Fan Chengmo was surging and couldn't help himself for a long time.
——I am so looking forward to seeing that my father takes over the world and get what he wants after Wang Xiao dies...
~~
At this time, Fan Wencheng was filled with sorrow and did not notice that his son was looking at him.
He turned his head and looked up at the slowly shaking Chu army flag in the distance, and said in his heart.
"Jia Xu has not set up Cao Cao's day, and he has been a Han thief for a long time."
The father and son, one old and one young, recited a poem in their hearts and left each near Zhaoheng Gate...
~~
Fan Chengmo walked forward again, passed through Lingling Gate, and met Prince Chahar Abunai.
Abnay is still very young, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, but he is strong and looks like he is in his thirties.
...
In a sense, after the establishment of the Chu Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty did not perish, but retreated to the north of the Great Wall. It could barely be called the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Lin Dan Khan was the last great khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
Abnay is Lin Dankhan's second son and a posthumous son. His mother is Empress Dowager Namuzhong.
After Lin Danhan's death, Namuzhong remarried Huang Taiji.
Abnay also has an older brother named Ezhe.
Huang Taiji changed his reign to be emperor. When the Qing Dynasty was established, Ezhe led the twenty-four tribes of Mongolians in the south of the desert and forty-nine lords to hold a meeting in Shengjing. He respected Huang Taiji as the Great Khan of the Mongolian and presented the imperial seal. From then on, the entire Mongolians in the south of the desert surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.
That conference is like today's conference...
Huang Taiji was very happy at that time, well, anyone else would be very happy. In short, he appointed Ezhe as the prince and married his biological daughter to him.
This daughter is the daughter of the current Empress Dowager Zhezhe, the eldest princess of Gulun Wenzhuang, and Aisin Gioro Makata.
Later, Ezhe died of illness, and Abnai inherited the prince of Chahar and also inherited the Makata.
Speaking of which, Abnay is Huang Taiji's adopted son, and Makata is both his righteous sister and his sister-in-law... This is not important, but what is important is that Chahar is now regent by the eldest princess Wenzhuang of Gulun.
Abnay is only the nominal Prince Chahar for the time being.
For Abnay and Makata, this year is really a very sensitive time.
Abnay grew up and wanted to take over Chahar's power; the Qing Dynasty was driven out of the pass by the Chu Dynasty and quickly declined; the birth mother of Makata, Empress Dowager Zhezhe, was thrown into the capital; the Gan Dynasty established the country and summoned the Mongolian tribes to congratulate.
As a result, when he arrived in the capital, Ganchao was about to surrender to the Chu Dynasty again.
Makata hopes that Concubine Zhuang... Whether it is Concubine Zhuang, the Holy Mother Empress Dowager, or the Emperor, she hopes that the other party can take good care of her mother, Zhezhe, and then... she is actually indifferent and doesn't know what to do.
Abunai's ambition was very clear. He wanted to wash away the shame of Lin Dankhan and become the new Mongolian Khan.
...
Fan Chengmo had insight into Abnay's thoughts and believed that Prince Chahar was a little wolf who had not grown up, but could already bite people.
He also secretly talked to Abnay once.
"Wang Xiao cannot help you restore your country..."
"What are you talking about?!" Abunai changed his face and said, "I don't want to restore the country..."
Fan Chengmo said: "Your Majesty, don't be nervous. This is no longer the Qing Dynasty. No one dares to pursue the prince's ambitions."
Abnay then relaxed.
Fan Chengmo said again: "Only our great master will support you, you will restore the country and call yourself Khan, because she is also a descendant of the Yuan Dynasty and a relative of the eldest princess."
"Then what do you think I should do?"
Fan Chengmo smiled but said nothing.
It was not until Abnay swears to Changshengtian that he would never leak the conversation between the two that Fan Chengmo said: "Please be ready to call more than 10,000 Mongolian cavalry at any time..."
At this time, we met at the Temple of Heaven. The two looked at each other from afar and nodded each other.
In Fan Chengmo's eyes, Abunai, a little Mongolian wolf, is fierce, but has a simple mind and is best for mercy...
~~
Bypassing the Circular Mound Sacrifice Tower and passing through a gate, Fan Chengmo met Lang Baofu.
This is a Jurchen wolf, with minions ready.
Twenty killers, either dressed as personal guards or dressed as servants, have been scattered around the Circular Mound.
Everything is done, only the east wind is missing...
~~
The sun rises little by little, and more and more people gather in the Temple of Heaven.
Officials from the Dagan Dynasty led soldiers, gentry from the capital, envoys from Mongolia, and officials from the Chu Dynasty led soldiers...
Tens of thousands of people gathered in the Temple of Heaven; countless people looked up at them outside the Temple of Heaven.
Three years after losing the capital, the Chu Dynasty finally re-determined the Yanjing again. Today's ceremony may symbolize the beginning of a prosperous era.
For Mongolian envoys, compared with this ceremony, the meeting where Huang Taiji accepted the surrender of Mongolia in the south of the desert was like a market in the countryside.
For ministers such as Fan Wencheng, Sony, Ganglin, etc., he felt overwhelmed.
There are too many people and the scene is too chaotic, and it has gradually exceeded their control.
Wang Xiao transferred another group of officials from Shandong, and the ceremony was handled more and more grandly.
Fan Wencheng and others were determined to object, but they did not dare to, and they were worried that they would not be able to do so.
——There are more than 10,000 Mongolians in the capital. If there is a mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable...
Finally, it was three o'clock in the morning.
"The King of Jin is almost here, and he will enter the city soon."
"Your Majesty has also left the palace..."
"Hurry! Prepare to welcome the King of Jin and His Majesty..."
“…”
Fan Chengmo held his sword and stood near Chengzhen Gate on the north side of the Circular Mound Sacrifice Heaven Taipei. Suddenly, he saw chaos appearing in the north.
He walked over there and gradually heard quarrels coming from near the echo wall.
"No! Absolutely not possible! It's simply outrageous!"
This man spoke Chinese, like an official from Northern Chu.
Then someone argued with him in Mongolian.
A general translator said: "This is a very normal custom on our grassland. The King of Jin married Princess Meng Guqing and became a family..."
To be continued...
