Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 2 Chapter 23: Establish a country and claim the king

   Zhu Xi looked at Yang Zhong beside him, and said indifferently: "Oh? Why doesn't the old man think it's too much?"

   "Mr. Zhu, although what you said is not wrong, it will make the lord very shameless in front of many colleagues!" Yang Zhong said straightforwardly.

   Zhu Xi heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up, and said: "Major Yang, you are really one-hearted! But what about that? What happened? I think you have seen it too!"

   "The result? The result is that the lord is constantly spurring and driving us! A goal has been carved in the hearts of all of us!"

   Yang Zhong thoughtfully said: "This result is really good!"

   Zhu Xi saw Yang Zhong's pensive appearance, and said: "There is still something to do in the old man's school, goodbye!"

   After he finished speaking, regardless of whether Yang Zhong answered or not, he went straight away!

  ……

   In the three days, whether it was officials of the territory, large or small, or ordinary people, they were all busy.

   Although Yang Song said that he wants to be simple, how can such a big thing be simple!

   Within three days, a three-story, nine-step altar was built on the plain south of the city, and thousands of people were mobilized. It took two and a half days!

   It took two and a half days, day and night, construction in turn, only to barely complete this small altar before the deadline!

   There is no superstructure on the altar, only a platform, and the decoration on it is no different from the previous activities of sacrificing heaven and earth!

   In other words, just to move the old four-legged bronze tripod over. As for the previous temporary altar, it has long been dismantled!

   This time the altar is a permanent building!

   The entire altar is circular, the top platform has a radius of three meters, and the bottom base has a radius of nine meters!

   is divided into three floors, each with three steps, so the altar is not very high, but in order to expand or increase the height in the future, the altar was built on the top of a small mountain bag.

   As for the meaning of these numbers, there is something to say...

   The four directions of the southeast, northwest and northwest on the platform are respectively carved with the four mythical beasts, the East Green Dragon, the South Suzaku, the West White Tiger, and the North Xuanwu!

   Others, such as how many stone pillars and how many bricks there are on each floor, are even more!

   Before the deadline came, the total number of altars was completed, and Li Xie, who was in charge of supervising the construction, heaved a sigh of relief!

   While constructing the altar, Yang Zhong and other officials are also busy!

  Prepare the flag, prepare the costumes, prepare the three sacrifices, prepare the logistics...

   But the work of preparing for the sacrifice fell to Zhu Xi, who let his literary talent and knowledge be there!

   Yang Song was also busy, and even before the jewelry from the gold and silver shop had time to give it away, he was busy rehearsing, busy getting acquainted with the sacrifice, and busy preparing...

   Anyway, in the past few days, no one in the entire territory has free time, all are busy around this matter!

   This is the program that has been streamlined so much by a few people that it can't be streamlined any more.

   It is conceivable that if it is a full set of sacrificial ceremony, it will not be completed in just three days!

   Fortunately, this time I only called the king, not the king, let alone other prestigious titles!

   Otherwise, it would not be too much to prepare for three months.

   On February 31st, Yang Song held another meeting!

   "Everyone, tomorrow is the ceremony to celebrate the establishment of the nation and proclaim the emperor. I don't know if you are all ready?" Yang Song asked.

   "Back to the lord, the subordinates have already arranged everything, and everything is ready, only waiting for the auspicious time to come!" Yang Zhong replied.

   "Okay!" Yang Song turned to Zhu Xi and asked: "Mr. Zhu, you will be the presiding officer of the ceremony!"

   "I obey the orders! I will definitely live up to the lord's entrustment!" Zhu Xi blushed, leading the command.

   It is a great honor to host ordinary rituals! Not to mention this kind of national foundation ceremony!

   "Yang Li, pay attention to publicity, and let everyone in the territory know about this!" Yang Song continued to exhort.

   "The subordinates obey the orders, they have arranged people who can speak in each village and town, and the lord's name of the'monarch' will be passed on to the world!" Yang Ren promised.

   "Song Ci and Bao Jie, you should also pay attention to the code that you are responsible for. From tomorrow, the "Tentative Code of Apocalypse" will be renamed "The Code of Xia Country"!"

   Yang Song also wants to propose a country ruled by law in the future. The revision and improvement of laws will never stop.

  "After the ceremony is over, we will discuss the various contents of the code together, and we must re-bind the missing parts that have been checked in the past few years!

   "Subordinates obey!" The two said in the same way: "The lord is wise!"

   As for why the terms of the law should be discussed together, instead of letting the two directly decide it!

   Because Yang Song wants to establish a country under the rule of law, he must determine the issue of legislative power!

  He wants to let this method of discussing and deciding the content of the law in the form of a meeting form a law!

   In other words, the so-called legislative power is not in the hands of any single person, but in the hands of the entire conference!

   is the same as the previous system.

   Yang Song handed over the administrative power to Yang Zhong’s government;

   hand over legislative power to the meeting;

   handed over the judicial power to the Legal Bureau and the Metropolitan Procuratorate;

   handed over the financial power to the Finance Bureau;...

   More than the three powers are acting alone, and other powers are also coming out alone.

   He just holds the military power firmly in his own hands!

   It is the so-called power coming out of the army! As long as Yang Song has a firm grasp of the army, he is not afraid of other people's ideas!

  ……

   The next day, the morning light began to appear, and the southern suburbs of Apocalypse City were already crowded!

   When the first ray of sunlight from the east hit the altar!

   "The good time has come! The sacrifice begins!"

  Zhu Xi wore a black dress with red edges, a magi crown on his head, running cloud shoes on his feet, holding the sacrificial words in both hands, and singing in a loud voice.

   "Bang bang bang~!" Three salutes sounded!

   The three artillery pieces lined up outside the altar. The loaded shells were made of colored ribbon shells. After the explosion, the ribbons flew in the air!

   "Inherit the fortune of the heavens and the earth, open the foundation of all ages, and establish a country for thousands of years!-the ceremony of the founding of the country, enlightenment!"

   With the sound of the word "Qi" falling, beat the drums and gongs! "Dangdangdang~! Dangdangdang~!"

   "Ritual and music start~! The monarch is coming~!"

   The sound of Sizhu Orchestra resounded throughout the world! And a six-horse carriage also drove out from the Nancheng Gate!

   Accompanied by the sound of courtesy and music ~www.novelmtl.com~ Yang Song wore a black gilt rim and purple pattern gown, wearing a short bead curtain lining a flat crown, stepping on auspicious clouds boots, and slowly walked out of the carriage!

  He stopped under the altar and stood still facing the direction of the altar! The ritual music and the sound of gongs and drums stopped!

   "Please three animals~!" The fresh heads of cows, sheep, and pigs were put on the altar under the cover of red cloth!

   "Sacrifice to heaven and earth, Hajime!"

   There are three more cannons, gongs and drums, and ritual music!

   Yang Song stretched out his left foot and stepped on the first step of the ladder, step by step, until he reached the middle of the top platform of the altar!

   lit three long incense sticks, knelt on the tufted futon, and bowed three times! Get up and walk to the incense burner, insert the long incense in your hand into it!

   took a bamboo slip from the counter, turned to face the burning bronze tripod, and read it aloud...

   Under the blast of flames, Yang Song's face and figure seemed to be blurred! ...

   "...Report to the world! I am the king! Stand! Xia Guo!"

   This is the last sentence read by Song Song Yang, and it is also a sentence proclaiming the establishment of Xia State!

   The bamboo slips in his hand were thrown into the burning copper cauldron, and disappeared between the heaven and the earth with a burst of black smoke!

   stepped forward and bypassed the copper cauldron, came to the edge of the altar, and looked at the officials and people under the altar!

  'S flat hands seem to embrace the whole world! Play the soundtrack.

   "Ben Jun Xuan! Xia Guo! Li!"

   Then, the shouting of hundreds of officials and people, boiling!

   "Boom boom!" The salute sounded!

   "咚咚咚~!" The drum sounded!

   "Dangdangdang~!" The gong sounded!

   The whole world seemed to brighten up, Yang Song and the officials and people were stretched very long in the morning light...
