"Your Majesty!" With the crying of Concubine Zheng and Lu Shou, all the palace maids, eunuchs, warriors and officials from the palace who entered the palace all lay on the ground and bowed.

The bell of the Wufeng Tower at the palace city's meridian gate suddenly rang, and it was spreading in the capital city one after another.

"Your Majesty the Emperor is in great service, and the Dragon Lord returns to heaven!"

The civil and military ministers and nobles who were waiting outside Chengtian Gate of the Imperial Palace, both bowed to the ground and bowed to the palace gate since the bell of the Wufeng Tower rang, and cried loudly.

In Hongde Hall, Concubine Zheng was lying on the body of Emperor Daxing and cried bitterly, while Prince Zhu Changluo just stood quietly. The death of his father did not make Zhu Changluo feel any sad at all. His father did not like this son since he was a child, and his son was not satisfied with his father.

Gao Shixin quietly stared at Concubine Zheng and Zhu Changluo, and deep sadness rose in his heart.

What a bullshit was lost in the Ming Dynasty in Wanli, but it was all the civil servants' group that smeared Wanli. They were not satisfied with the tax collection of Wanli. Although Wanli did not attend court, they still launched the three major qualities of Wanli. Wanli would never be stingy with the silver in military expenses, but the three major qualities of Wanli also exhausted the treasury silver, so he had to dig out the silver from the civil servants and gentry. Although he valued eunuchs, to be honest, most of the eunuchs were not good people. Most of the silver they collected fell on the eunuchs and the lackeys they raised, but they could eventually generate income for the treasury. The silver in the hands of civil servants and gentry, the court could not even get a hair.

Thinking of this, Gao Shixin knelt down to the Emperor Daxing and kowtowed deeply. When he raised his head, he was already in tears.

The cry of several children alarmed Gao Shixin. He turned to see that Li Xuanshi was bringing the little carpenter, King Xin and the princess came. The little carpenter stumbled to the emperor of Daxing, knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Grandpa Emperor! Grandpa Emperor!"

The ignorant King Xin and Princess Le'an also cried, crying in a state of grief.

Zhu Changluo didn't dare not cry at this time. No matter how he didn't like his father, or even died, because he was finally able to ascend the throne to the emperor, he was secretly happy for this, but at this time he had to cry, even if he squeezed, he would squeeze out a few tears.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace began to get busy. The white silk filial piety belts that had been prepared were brought out by the eunuchs and tied them to everyone's waist and head crown. Officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Daolu Department led a group of monks and Taoist priests holding various magical instruments to hurried into the palace. In the square in front of Fengtian Palace, a huge spiritual platform began to be built in an orderly manner.

Concubine Zheng fainted twice because of excessive grief. The man who loved her the most left. This man withstood the pressure from the ministers in the court again and again to protect her. Now that this man is gone, who else can protect her?

When Wanli was dying, he withstood great pressure to consecrate Concubine Zheng, but before he could hold the enthronement ceremony, Emperor Wanli passed away.

Zhu Changluo walked into the Qianqing Palace and Concubine Zheng had already woken up.

"Empress Zheng, since your father has conferred you as the queen, you are the queen! Please accept your son's greeting!" Zhu Changluo knelt down and bowed.

Concubine Zheng was relieved at this time. Zhu Changluo was kind and kind. Wanli didn't like him, but he was still a filial son and was willing to help Emperor Wanli fulfill his unfinished wish.

One night passed, at the hour of Yin, the palace gate opened wide, the whole city was covered with white mourning, and the whole country was sad.

The Han generals were arranged on both sides of the palace gate. The officials arranged their ranks according to their ranks and entered the palace one after another. At the second hour of Yin, nine whips outside the Fengtian Hall sounded nine times. The brocade clothes, wearing big red flying fish suits, the red flying fish suits of the private army were covered with white cloaks, and the road was opened in front. Huge wings crossed, gold bore, incense burner, scepter and other ceremonial guards passed by one after another. Finally, the imperial chariot with white silk belts was hung.

The prince Zhu Changluo had no expression on his face and walked slowly by the imperial chariot in silence.

Seeing the Emperor Daxing's imperial chariot, Fengtian Hall suddenly burst into tears again.

After completing the ceremony to send Emperor Daxing, Emperor Daxing's imperial chariot left the Forbidden City from the main gate, then left the Meridian Gate, and passed Zhengyang Gate. Along the way, the soldiers and civilians burst into tears, and the gate was open along the way. Emperor Daxing was sent out of the capital, and then turned west along the official road outside the capital, and walked around the capital half a circle to Qingling, northwest of the city.

After seeing off the Emperor Daxing, the next day the new emperor's ascension ceremony was held.

The next day at Yin hour, the ministers in the court waited outside Fengtian Gate early. At the third hour of Yin hour, three drums sounded from Wufeng Tower. The two doors opened, and the personal troops of the Jinyiwei walked out one after another, arranged on both sides of the civil and military officials. The officials lined up in order in front of the gate, and waited until the bell ring before opening the door.

At the hour of Mao, the bells on the Wufeng Tower rang, the left and right wing gates opened, and civil servants entered from the left; military generals entered from the right. The chief of the Jinyiwei was also a military general, entering from the right wing gate.

With the sound of pure whips, civil and military officials crossed the bridge in turn and arrived at the Danban in Fengtianmen. The civil and military officials were the left squad and the right squad. They set up marquis on the two strategies of the Imperial Road.

The bell and drums played music, Zhu Changluo arrived at the Imperial Gate, the Jinyi Guard Lishin held five umbrellas, and four rounds of fans followed closely behind. The former chief of the Lishin Lu Shou and the prince's companion Wang An followed behind.

Zhu Changluo walked to the dragon throne with expressionless face and stood up. As long as the next moment, he would sit on the dragon throne and officially become the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

The chief assistant of the cabinet, Fang Congzhe, turned around to face the court officials, slowly spread the yellow silk in his hand, and shouted: "Xuan. His Majesty the Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty passed the throne and listened to the emperor."

Fang Congzhe opened the will and read a long article. He couldn't understand most of the contents of the Gaoshi letter, but he also knew what it meant. The general meaning was that Emperor Wanli had ascended the throne forty-eight years, for fear of losing the trust of the former emperor. Now he was in dying, he was in charge of the grand tradition in the crown prince Zhu Changluo, and all the civil and military ministers helped each other to protect the country for thousands of years.

After reading the will, Fang Congzhe walked forward, knelt on the ground, and handed the will to Zhu Changluo with both hands.

The next procedure was that the ministers worshiped Zhu Changluo. According to the procedure, the ministers bowed three times and Zhu Changluo said three times; after the three requests and three words were completed, Wu Daonan, the Minister of Rites, brought twelve crowns to Zhu Changluo, which meant that Zhu Changluo officially became the emperor.

Zhu Changluo, wearing the twelve-tale crowns, walked towards the dragon throne. Just as his butt was about to fall on the dragon throne, he felt a little trembling. If he sat down, he would be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty! In fact, now he is already the emperor. After taking the will and putting on the twelve-tale crowns, he is already the official emperor. He was the prince a second ago.

After the throne ceremony, the new emperor ascended the throne, with the year name Taichang, but it is still the 48th year of Wanli. According to convention, next year is the first year of Taichang, but no one expected that next year will be the first year of Tianqi! Because Zhu Changluo only served as the emperor for one month, the cabinet later temporarily changed the second half of the 48th year of Wanli to the first year of Taichang.

Zhu Changluo reached out and stroked the twelve wing crowns on his head. This thing was really heavy. There were several kilograms of ivory and royal family on his head, and there were strings of beads hanging in the back of his head and in front of him. When his head swayed, the beads also swayed. It felt really uncomfortable, so the emperor liked to wear the lightweight wing crowns on weekdays. Who would carry the twelve crowns every day if you have something to do or not?

Next, Zhu Changluo began to announce the new policy: the first is to abolish the mining supervision and the recall of all the supervision and eunuchs.

When this new government order came, the Chinese officials shouted and bowed: "Your Majesty is wise!"

What a wise thing! Gao Shixin, who was standing behind the generals and Zhang Yong, who was standing among the crowd of father-in-law, cursed in his heart almost at the same time.

Next, Zhu Changluo appointed Shi Jihe as the Minister of Personnel and the second auxiliary of the cabinet; Han Feng as the second auxiliary of the cabinet; Zhu Guozuo as the Grand Secretary of the Dongge and the second auxiliary of the cabinet.

The appointment of several cabinet secondary assistants has changed the previous situation of Fang Congzhe in power alone and weakened Fang Congzhe's power.

Zhu Changluo's series of operations mean that the era of the Donglin Party is coming soon.
Chapter completed!
