In May of last year, Fusu led his men and horses from Shangjun to attack Qin. It was already February of the second year. The bloody battles of the past year, the hard work of the past year, and the achievements of the past few years.

Everything has a final result, that is, Fusu will finally proclaim himself emperor today. The subordinates who fought with him from Shangjun have been waiting for this day for too long, especially those like Meng Tian who came from

The people who had been around Fusu planning everything for him from the beginning were even more excited.

In early spring in March, the weather in the morning was still a bit chilly, but for the vast majority of people in Xianyang City, they did not feel it was cold. On the contrary, they felt warm in their hearts. After this month of understanding, the people finally knew this

Fusu is still the honest and kind-hearted Fusu before. He will not tax the people as much as the previous emperors did, and he will also help them rebuild their homes. With him as their master, the people are very happy.

.So early on, people set up incense burners at their doorsteps to thank heaven.

At nine o'clock, in the large square in front of the Xianyang Palace, Fusu's former subordinates and the original officials of Xianyang City who had surrendered to him stood in two rows, waiting for Fusu to arrive. With the sound of drums, Fusu stood in a row.

Surrounded by all the soldiers and chamberlains, they slowly walked out of the palace gate and stepped onto the platform that was just built several feet high.

Today, Fusu is wearing a black robe, with nine dragons showing teeth and claws tattooed on it with golden threads. This dragon robe was made by Xiao Tao over the past few days. It turns out that Fusu didn't let her make it.

She was pregnant and overworked, but Xiaotao said that the dragon robe for Fusu to ascend the throne was the most important, and she must make it for Fusu. In the end, Fusu had no choice but to agree. And the soldiers and chamberlains behind him also

Wearing black robes and armor, the crowd gathered around Fusu like a big dark cloud floating on the high platform. Because at the end of the Warring States period, the world believed in the theory of the cycle of five elements, and everyone said that Zhou destroyed Shang's wood virtue with fire virtue, and

Qin Ze used the virtue of water to destroy the virtue of fire in Zhou Dynasty. Water is a black color, so the people of Qin naturally admire black, and important events such as the emperor's ascension to the throne are naturally even more dark. In fact, what Fusu wanted to wear the most was as in movies and TV

The golden dragon robe he saw left a deep impression on him. However, all the matters regarding his ascension to the throne to worship heaven and earth were presided over by Feng Chang Yinggui, the original head of the Nine Ministers. He was a nearly 20-year-old

He was an old man in his seventies and had always kept aloof from the world, so Hu Hai and Ziying did not make things difficult for him after they got the throne. He just took care of the matters of worship in the ancestral temple. However, Ziying's ascension to the throne was done very hastily, and he was completely

There was no use for him. Now that Fusu had ascended the throne, he naturally had to do his best. Even the article of apology to heaven was written by him by burning a lamp and staying up for several nights.

Although Fusu didn't really believe in these things, he had to follow the rules of Qin when he was in the countryside. Under Yinggui's arrangement, Fusu began to worship heaven and earth, just like a puppet on strings. He didn't want to do anything at all.

Knowing what he was talking about, Fusu just followed the prompts of Winning Return. Fusu felt more tired along the way than fighting on the battlefield. Fortunately, these ceremonies were finally over, and only Fusu was left to read to the ministers.

The edict for proclaiming himself emperor was also written by Ying Gui. It mainly talked about his lack of ability but the support of his ministers and the fact that he could not proclaim himself emperor. These were just some polite words and one of the steps in his ascension to the throne.

That’s all.

But when Fusu looked at the ministers below, he suddenly didn't want to say these useless words that only ghosts and gods would believe. He wanted to announce something to the people of the world today. So when Fusu opened his mouth, the article was a waste of money.

He put aside the article that took him several hours to write: "I, Fusu, am the eldest son of the First Emperor, and the throne of the Emperor originally belonged to me, but my unscrupulous brother Hu Hai and Zhao Gao conspired to tamper with the Emperor's photos.

, causing the emperor to fall from power, and Hu and Hai tried to take my life many times. Fortunately, with the blessing of heaven, not only did I not die under their conspiracy, but I got help from countless talented people, so that my Shangjun became

It is a place where I can compete with Hu Hai and other traitors. Later, Zhao Gao usurped the throne again. In order to rectify the name of our Great Qin, rather than let the foundation created by the First Emperor and the ancestors of the Great Qin be controlled by an eunuch, I would rather

Even in the name of rebellion, I will send troops to attack Xianyang. Fortunately, with the blessing of heaven, the spirit of my ancestors, the lives of the three armies, and the dedication of the soldiers, I finally captured Xianyang and took back everything that belongs to me, Fusu. Today, I, Fusu, swear here that from now on

From now on, our Great Qin will surely recreate the glory of the First Emperor, and I, Fusu, will also follow the example of the First Emperor and make our Great Qin unify the world for generations to come!" Fusu's words were incompatible with the original ceremony, but they surprised everyone present.

Everyone was shocked. Only Yinggui looked surprised. He had been Feng Chang for decades, and he had never seen anyone disrupt his arrangements like Fusu. But now

He was just a surrendered minister, and even though he was several generations older than Fusu, he had nothing to do with him, so he could only sigh secretly and give up.

Although some of the rules since the Zhou Dynasty were destroyed by Qin Shihuang, no one dared to touch these etiquette things. But today, Fusu completely despised all these, which made the soldiers who had been fighting with him for many years very upset.

They were excited. Seeing that Fusu had finished everything, they all knelt down and shouted: "Long live the emperor!" The sound shook the sky, and the people in Xianyang City heard it. Among them were Zhang Liang, Han Xin and

Chen Pingping, a careful person, has already understood the meaning of Fusu's words. First, it means that it is natural for him to claim the throne. It was only because of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao's conspiracy that he lost the throne. Therefore, it is justifiable for Fusu to regain the throne now.

At the same time, he also expressed his ideals to the soldiers below, letting them know that he would not stop making progress just because he became emperor.

After that, Fusu held a banquet for the ministers in the palace, and made temporary arrangements for their official positions during the banquet. Fusu appointed Zhang Chenping as the prime minister, Meng Tian as the Taiwei, and Zhang Liang as the imperial envoy. These were the three Dukes.

He also appointed Han Feng as the general and managed the country's military power together with Meng Tian. After that, some candidates for the Jiuqing were selected, including those who had previously held this position. For example, Yinggui was still Fengchang, and some people brought by Fusu were replaced.

Those who were awarded this position, such as Peng Hong, were appointed as guards to protect the safety of the palace and Xianyang City. Then Fusu also arranged the governors of each county under his rule.

After all the work was done, it was already dark, and Fusu dragged his tired body back to the harem surrounded by the chamberlains. Xiaotao, accompanied by the maids, was also waiting for Fusu in the palace.

Upon seeing Fusu's arrival, Xiao Tao hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "I have met the emperor." The palace maid next to her had already knelt on the ground. Fu Su hurriedly helped him up and said, "Xiao Tao, I now specifically allow you to see me.

No need to salute, just like in the past in Shangjun." He waved his hand to all the palace maids to leave. After they all went out, Fusu held Xiao Tao in his arms and said, "Xiao Tao, now I have finally accomplished what I wanted to do.

The first step is that after our flesh and blood is born, if it is a man, I will make him the prince, what do you think?"

"Really?" Xiao Tao was really surprised and happy. She was originally a maid of Fusu. If Fusu said that he wanted to make their son the prince, in other words, he would make himself the queen. But then she said: "

I'm afraid I won't be able to be a queen because of my poor background. As long as you always remember me, Emperor, I'll be satisfied."

After hearing this, Fusu woke up from the momentary excitement. Yes, I am afraid that he alone cannot have the final say in the position of queen. Although he is now the king of a country, there are still many things that he cannot do arbitrarily. Thinking of this

At one point, Fusu thought of the current official who was giving him a lot of headaches.

The composition of the officials, such as the Three Officials and Nine Ministers, he couldn't remember what their respective positions were. But Fusu also knew that it would not take a day or two to replace these official positions with the six departments such as Li, Hu, Li, Bing, Xing, and Gong, which he was more comfortable with.

To do so, I need to constantly think of ways to make the Sui and Tang Dynasties more advanced.

The system was recognized in this era. At the same time, Fusu also wanted to implement the imperial examination system in his lifetime. In this way, China's feudal system would reach its highest point in the morning. Perhaps in more than a thousand years, China will

will take the lead in entering a more progressive capitalism, and then

Then there would be no humiliating history like what I saw in history textbooks when I was a child. However, these things are easy to think about, but in fact they are extremely difficult to do. It is a completely different system from this era, and it will inevitably be affected by many aspects.

resistance, so Fusu only thinks about it occasionally now.

Xiaotao saw that Fusu had silenced his voice after hearing what she said, and thought he was angry with her, so she cautiously asked: "Emperor, are you angry with me?" But Fusu was completely in his own mind.

While thinking, Xiao Tao's voice was not heard, which made Xiao Tao even more nervous. She took herself out of Fu Su's arms and knelt in front of her.

Feeling that there was no one in his arms, Fu Su came to his senses. When he saw Xiao Tao kneeling in front of him, he hurriedly picked her up and said: "Don't keep kneeling down now. I just thought of something."

That’s all. Since you can’t be the queen, then I will naturally

I won't force you." Xiao Tao breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know why, but after meeting Fusu again this time, Xiao Tao felt that she was far away from him. Maybe it was because he was the emperor now.

Well, Xiaotao comforted herself in her heart.

But Fusu had family and country affairs in mind, so he didn't pay too much attention to Xiaotao's daughter. Now Fusu's eyes have turned to the Central Plains and the Chu land in the south. His next opponent will be Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu.
