Looking at the emperor throne in front of him, Guo Jin seemed a little excited.

A few years ago, there was still no emperor throne.

At that time, Guo Peng also knelt on the cushion, which was no different from the ministers.

Later, Guo Peng resolved the dispute between the wine shop and Hu Si, and successfully built the imperial seat and moved it to the high platform.

From then on, the ministers could only sit on their knees, while the emperor could sit upright.

The difference in identity is revealed.

From now on, will I sit here and face the ministers?

Guo Jin became excited and became a little short of breath.

Cao Lan noticed this and held his hand and comforted him softly.

"Starting today, you are the emperor, be calm."

"My son knows."

Then, Guo Peng and Cao Lan let go.

Looking at the throne that only Guo Peng could sit in the past and that he could only look up to, he took a deep breath, turned around, raised his bow, and sat majestic on the throne.

After Guo Jin sat down, Guo Peng and Cao Lan walked to the throne.

After the throne, there are two chairs, one belongs to the Supreme Emperor and the other belongs to the Supreme Empress, symbolizing that the Supreme Emperor and the Supreme Empress are the eternal backing of the emperor.

To be honest, such scenes are rare.

Historically, it was rare to have the previous emperor alive when the new emperor came to power, mainly because the Empress Dowager had a relatively high chance of living, and the emperor was usually dead.

Now as the emperor, Guo Jin has both parents and can hold hands together to send him to the throne, watch him sit down, and then sit behind him together.

Not to mention that the ministers find it novel and amazing, they think it is rare in ancient and modern times, and it is difficult for future generations to see such a situation again. They may be witnessing history.

Guo Jin himself felt an unprecedented sense of comfort and security surrounding him.

I am the emperor.

I am really the emperor!

From now on, I will be the only emperor!

He was extremely excited, and his whole body was trembling slightly, and he could hardly control his emotions.

At this moment, Xu Jing, the Minister of Rites who was responsible for singing, also stepped forward quickly and shouted loudly at the top of his voice [The ministers celebrated the emperor]. Then all the ministers and workers knelt down, facing the new emperor Guo Jin, and shouted in unison [I pay homage to Your Majesty, long live my emperor].

Under the high platform, the ministers knelt down and shouted at Guo Jin. The oncoming atmosphere of celebration made him so happy that he could hardly control himself.

If it weren't for realizing that his father and mother were still sitting behind him, Guo Jin would probably be unable to control his emotions.

He seemed to feel that he could understand Guo Peng's feeling of sitting on the throne and accepting congratulations from his ministers.

It’s so cool that everyone is currying about you and pleasing you.

No wonder everyone is rushing to be emperor!

Of course, at this point, there is nothing to control or not.

From this moment on, he was the second emperor of the Great Wei Empire recognized by everyone.

As the founder of the Great Wei Empire, Guo Peng, the first emperor, will become the Supreme Emperor.

He would retreat to the Taishan Hall with the Supreme Empress, and never ask about political affairs, retreat and hand over the country to the new emperor for management.

Unlike Guo Jin's excited mood, the ministers were a little nervous.

Because as the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, the most important thing is not that they salute the new emperor and recognize the new emperor's right to rule over them, but that the new emperor issued the enthronement edict to them.

The importance of the edict of the throne is self-evident. It includes the governance concepts, governance policies and goals after the new emperor ascended the throne, as well as personnel changes.

The previous ones are related to the policy changes between the new emperor and the old emperor, because the ministers have become accustomed to doing things under the rhythm of the old emperor's rule.

Generally speaking, unless the old emperor is too angry and resentful, does things too cruelly, and is too disgusted as an individual, the new emperor has no need to change his policies on a large scale.

When the word filial piety is the first thing the new emperor has to face when changing the old emperor’s policies is the pressure of filial piety. The old emperor is not dead and still alive, so you can change his policies at will, which is unfilial.

Unfilial piety is a big hat that no one can afford to wear.

Secondly, we must face pressure from the government and pressure from civil adaptability.

They are all used to the old emperor's governance and are not used to changes. If you want to change, you will face their rebound and pressure.

So basically the new emperor will not change the series of policies left by the old emperor with great fanfare.

In some cases, the changes of dynasties will not change some of the rules of the previous dynasty too much, but will continue, such as the Han Dynasty inheriting the Qin system and the Wei Dynasty inheriting the Han system.

After Guo Jin took office, will he change some of the policy contents of the Guo Peng era or change them in front of Guo Peng? This can reflect some problems.

For example, is Guo Jin an emperor of real power?

Is it true that Guo Peng pushed him to the front desk to pretend to be a rubber stamp and a puppet?

What better reflects this is the subsequent personnel changes.

A series of personnel changes can best reflect whether the new emperor is the real emperor of power.

If Guo Jin could transfer some positions in the court and appoint people he trusted to serve as important positions and take power, it would prove that Guo Peng had really abdicated.

Guo Peng handed over the power he held and handed over all the power to the new emperor, allowing the new emperor to do whatever he wanted.

That is enough to prove that this is not a new fishing law enforcement, but a real abdication.

But now that things have come to this point, even if it is not really abdicated, Guo Peng is no longer the emperor, but the Supreme Emperor.

From a legal perspective, the respected Mr. Guo is no longer the supreme ruler, but is just the most noble person.

Next, it depends on what the new emperor's edict can reflect.

The one who read the edict of the new emperor ascended the throne was Xu Jing. Xu Jing, the Minister of Rites, lived for a long time and looked very strong, was disliked by many people and was hated by many people.

This kind of thief who is against the Lord can actually hold a high position and serve as the Minister of Rites. It is simply a shame for the Wei court, and many people want his life.

But there was no way, he could live for so long, even until Guo abdicated. He was still the Minister of Rites, and Guo was willing to use him.

It seems that he will continue to serve as the Minister of Rites until his death, and he will not lose this position.

What can I do?

Why do you feel that the new emperor is also helpless?

The first thing that was announced in the edict of the throne was the change of the year name.

After changing the emperor, Yande's reign no longer used.

The whole country has unanimously changed the year name to Xingyuan. In less than an hour, the thirteenth year of Yande will end. Instead, it will be replaced by the first year of Xingyuan. The Yande period will never appear again until this time.

Well, that's right, it's no big deal.

Then came the new emperor's declaration of the ascension of the throne.

The declaration states that as the son of the old emperor, the new emperor knew that the old emperor had worked hard and diligently, so that he had a long hair and was exhausted.

He couldn't bear to see his father fall down with excessive fatigue, so when his father proposed to abdicate the throne, he cried and agreed.

Although he took over the throne from his father, he knew that his talents and character were far inferior to his father, and his understanding of governing the country could not be compared with his father, so he did not change the implementation of a series of court policies.

Everyone should follow the method of doing things during the Yande period.

I did it, and now I did it.

He decided to follow Xiao Guicao's story and follow Guo Peng's story. He would do whatever he did. He felt that there was no problem in doing this and was absolutely correct.

Regarding a series of issues such as administration, legal system, agriculture, economy and military, these issues are all related to the national economy and people's livelihood. Guo Peng's rule is very proper and there has been no problems, so he will continue these rules without making any changes.

There were no major changes in a series of personnel arrangements, and the changes were actually very small.

For example, he served as Henan Yin for a long time, and many of his subordinates served in Henan Yin, so he promoted his subordinate Lu Gong to serve in the Ministry of Civil Affairs and promoted his subordinate Lu Yu to serve in the Ministry of Finance.

Then the two of them were allowed to enter Nanshu and serve as attendants in Nanshu.

Then he promoted his subordinate Cao Zhen, Guan Ping and the others to join the imperial guards as military positions, taking office as deputy positions of Xu Chu and Dian Wei.

Then he mobilized his subordinates Xiahou Shang, Xiahou Heng and Cao Tai. The three of them were arranged by Guo Jin to serve in the Guards and serve as middle-level officers.

At the same time, Zhang Zhao's son Zhang Cheng and Zhang Xiu were transferred to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel respectively.

Xin Bi's son Xin Chang was transferred to the cabinet to serve as a cabinet member.

Zhao Yun's son Zhao Guangwei was transferred to Yunzhou, and Zhao Guangwu was transferred to Mozhou, and the two were trained by war.

This series of personnel changes were made up for the shortcomings and gaps without large-scale mobilization by the government left by Guo Peng.

Guo Jin mobilized many of his confidants into the court, but did not shake the basic personnel of the court determined by Guo Peng. He just inserted his confidants into suitable places.

In order to avoid gossiping, Zhao Yun's two sons were sent to the border for training.

This seems to be a very clever approach to the ministers.

Inserting their own confidants into the court and doing things in the court, but not replacing the candidates set by Guo Peng, they only do things under their command. However, as the confidants and minions of the new emperor, they will inevitably be treated specially.

Having them is equivalent to having the eyes of a new emperor in the court department. The new emperor can know what the court is doing, and doing so does not require any conflicts with the old emperor, because the conflict itself does not exist.

This method has made many old ministers feel a little different from the new emperor.

But this also seems to reflect the incomplete power of the new emperor, or the new emperor's unwillingness to have conflicts with the old emperor.

The new emperor respected him very much and was afraid of the old emperor, so he did not dare to have any disputes with the old emperor, so he chose this method to insert his confidants into the court.
