Chapter 393: Long live Dayan!
Looking at the angry Chen Yueru, Jiang Chen couldn't help but walk forward with amusement.
He pulled her into his arms and whispered into her ear.
"Okay, I know you're still angry with Xu Shuer."
"But think about it, if it weren't for her, how would the two of us be together!"
"We should thank her. Be obedient and don't be angry."
"If you get angry again, you'll get wrinkles on your face."
After hearing Jiang Chen's words, Chen Yueru pouted angrily.
Then, he clenched his fists and hit Jiang Chen's chest again and again.
"It's all your fault. It's all your fault. You insisted on agreeing to her request!"
As Chen Yueru vented her anger, Jiang Chen just gently touched her head.
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.
This day was also the day when Jiang Chen officially ascended the throne.
Early in the morning, the whole capital became bustling, and people got up early and went to the streets.
For a moment, the streets of the capital were filled with people who had gotten up early.
In addition, the northern army was also busy under the leadership of generals including Li Yuanyi and Yuan Hao.
The entire country was under martial law, with no one allowed to enter or leave.
Every soldier in the North was in high spirits, and the armor on their bodies and the weapons in their hands were shining brightly.
In addition to the soldiers defending the city and the imperial guards battalion guarding the imperial city, all the soldiers from the Shenshu Battalion and the Shenji Battalion were also summoned together.
At the same time, in Jiang Chen's bedroom.
Jiang Chen took a bath, changed his clothes and washed up with the help of the four girls.
He put on a set of extremely light soft armor over his underwear, and on the outside he put on a black dragon robe that several women had specially sewn for him.
The entire completed black dragon robe was worn by Jiang Chen.
It perfectly sets off Jiang Chen's tall and handsome figure!
The nine dragons embroidered with gold thread on the black dragon robe looked so vivid.
Below the golden dragon embroidered with nine gold threads are clouds embroidered with silver threads.
Nine golden dragons appeared and disappeared in these silver clouds.
Jiang Chen looked at this perfect dragon robe and walked happily to the mirror.
After looking at himself in the mirror, Jiang Chen turned .
After turning around, Jiang Chen said to the four girls.
"My beloved concubines, look at me in this outfit, am I handsome?"
Faced with the extremely arrogant Jiang Chen, several women spat at him in disdain.
"Okay, stop being so cocky, the time is almost up!"
Chen Yueru looked speechlessly at the extremely handsome Jiang Chen in front of her and said with a roll of her eyes.
At Chen Yueru's urging, Jiang Chen strode out of the bedroom with satisfaction.
The moment they saw Jiang Chen walk out of the bedroom, the four royal guards and the thousand soldiers of the royal guard camp behind them knelt down on the ground.
"We are waiting to see the Lord!"
The roar of these one thousand soldiers was very shocking!
The remaining sound continued to echo throughout the imperial city.
Looking at these soldiers, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile proudly.
Then, under the gaze of all the soldiers, Jiang Chen turned over and rode on a black warhorse.
After riding on his warhorse, Jiang Chen led a group of soldiers out of the imperial city.
In the center of the one thousand soldiers was the carriage carrying Chen Yueru's four daughters and Xu Shuer.
Soon, Jiang Chen and his group arrived at the streets of the capital.
After seeing Jiang Chen, the people on both sides knelt down on the ground.
He shouted loudly to Jiang Chen, who was riding a warhorse at the front of the team.
"Long live the Marquis Dingbei, long live the Marquis Dingbei!"
Hearing the cheers of the people, Jiang Chen smiled and waved to the people on both sides.
After a while, followed by a group of people.
Jiang Chen led everyone to the Temple of Heaven, where a group of ministers led by Gongsun Liang and Yuan Taifu had already been waiting.
Jiang Chen reined in his horse in front of the Temple of Heaven and dismounted.
He walked up to the top of the Temple of Heaven step by step, while Gongsun Liang, Yuan Taifu and others followed him without saying a word.
After climbing up nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, Jiang Chen and everyone else finally arrived in front of the altar.
At this time, in front of the altar, several old celestial masters from the Imperial Observatory were wearing court robes.
He was standing there, respectfully waiting for Jiang Chen's arrival.
After seeing Jiang Chen, several old masters bowed to him.
"We are here to see His Majesty!"
"Please stand up, everyone. I'm late. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Jiang Chen smiled apologetically at them.
Seeing that Jiang Chen actually apologized to them, several old Taoist priests quickly waved their hands.
"It's all right, it's all right, Your Majesty, don't worry, this is the auspicious time."
As they spoke, several people separated and stood in line.
Seeing this, Master Yuan, who was following behind Jiang Chen, slowly stepped forward.
After taking out a memorial from his arms , he began to read it aloud.
"The Emperor of Heaven is above, and the Earth is below. The imperial power of the Yu family has declined, and the people of the Xia Kingdom are living in misery."
"However, fortunately, a virtuous king has come to Daxia!"
"His name is Jiang Chen, so today I have the audacity to report this to the heavens."
"Emperor Jiang Chen as the emperor, inherit the Xia Kingdom, and establish unprecedented peace!"
As Master Yuan's voice fell, Jiang Chen also came to the altar.
After bowing to the altar, Jiang Chen turned around and shouted loudly.
"I, Jiang Chen, am here today to announce to the world that I am ascending the throne as emperor!"
"After that, the Xia Kingdom was renamed 'Yan' and the reign title was changed to 'Yuanshi'!"
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, Master Yuan picked up the imperial crown and put it on Jiang Chen's head.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Taifu knelt down on the ground first and kowtowed three times and nine times to Jiang Chen.
"Your Majesty, Yuan Shikang has met His Majesty the Emperor Yanwu. Long live the Emperor!"
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Emperor Yanwu. Long live the Emperor!"
After Yuan Taifu bowed down, all the civil and military officials in front of the Temple of Heaven also bowed down to the ground loudly.
The sound reached the foot of the mountain and was heard by countless people.
They all knelt on the ground spontaneously, shouting loudly.
"Long live Emperor Yanwu, long live the Great Yan Nation!"
For a moment, it seemed as if the entire capital was filled with congratulations for Jiang Chen's ascension to the throne.
Just like that, the historian at the side picked up his pen solemnly and recorded this in the history book in his hand.
"In the first year of Yuanshi, Jiang Chen, the former Marquis of Dingbei in Daxia, ascended the throne and changed the country's name to 'Yan', becoming Emperor Yanwu!"
After successfully offering sacrifices to heaven and ascending the throne, Jiang Chen took out the plan for political reform of the Xia Kingdom that he had prepared long ago.
Jiang Chen abolished the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel on the basis of the original six ministries.
There were also the Grand Council and the Inspectorate, with the Grand Council in charge of all military affairs of the Yan State, and Gongsun Liang as the head of the Grand Council.
The Inspectorate is responsible for supervising all officials to ensure their integrity.
As for the other four parts, Jiang Chen did not make any changes.
In addition, Jiang Chen also formed a cabinet to replace the usual morning court sessions.
