On the fifth day of the ninth month, Ying Yi met with surrendered ministers and generals and the third group of well-educated people from all over China, representative local gentry and merchants at the Ganqing Palace banquet.

On the sixth day of the lunar month, Ying Yi met the monks invited to come, including Longhu Mountain, Gezao Mountain, Mao Mountain, Laoshan Mountain, Zhongnan Mountain, Wudang Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain, Miaojiang and other places, with a total of more than 30 sect leaders and sect leaders.

These more than thirty people are the most distinctive representatives of the monk class on the entire land of China. Moreover, their fellow disciples, including uncles, brothers, disciples, and grandchildren, all serve in the Yuanqi Palace.

Among them, Taiban was Taoist monk, led by Zhang Tianshi and others. There were also Buddhist monks. Although the Buddhist monks in Songshan were in unison with the Donglu and had a bad intention, Ying Yi did not piss off all Buddhist monks. He only flattened the Buddhist monks in Songshan and stopped.

For Ying Yi, the Buddhist religion that has been rooted in Shenzhou for many years has been integrated into the Xia people and is one of them. In comparison, Tibetan Buddhism, the Green Sect in the Return Land, the Shaman of the Barbarians in the North, and the White Lotus Sect for the purpose of rebellion, and the Manichaeism, have only one ending, that is, the extermination of the Taoist dynasty.

However, the monks in Miaojiang saw the opportunity and surrendered before the army headed to southern Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, and drove the army forward to help guide Yunnan, Guizhou, thus avoiding the disaster of extermination.

There are special arrangements for the monk Ying Yi. In name, monks can indulge in the mountains, but in essence they still have to be dispatched by the Yuanqi Palace. Ying Yi cannot doubt this.

All monks must have members serving in the Yuanqi Temple. If necessary, Ying Yi’s order must not violate it.

Of course, there are definitely not many such commands. And it is most likely that the study of a project in the Yuanqi Palace requires more manpower before all monks will be summoned. This is actually very beneficial to monks.

As for using monks to fight, there is no need to do so. The army is strong enough, so where is there any monks involved?

The monks of each family take turns every five years. For example, the Tianshi Sect of Longhu Mountain. Currently, three monks led by Shaoshi are serving. Five years later, Zhang Shaoshi and four others can choose to return to Longhu Mountain to change to the other four, of course they can not choose. This is just a basic requirement. If you are willing, all the monks of each sect work in the Yuanqi Hall, and Ying Yi is also happy.

Ying Yi was powerful and powerful, so he could not resist the opposition of various monks. To this day, even Zhang Tianshi, who had some conflicts at the time, had no opinions.

After the sixth day of the lunar month, there was no more Tianshi in the world. The title of Tianshi has been banned since then.

The monks were not under the jurisdiction of the government, but they were under the jurisdiction of Ying Yi. Ying Yi decided on the rules and order, and from then on, the monks could not be separated from the country.

There are only two days left to the founding ceremony of worshiping the heavens, and all the preparations are ready. Whether it is the tribute, crown, garment, the procedures for worshiping the heavens, or the procedures for founding the country, they are ready to go.

The last condition that is missing is the good news from Yizhou, Taiwan and Xinjiang.

Ying Yi relaxed and waited for that moment to come.

In the Imperial Garden, Ying Yi was wearing regular clothes and holding a cup to drink slowly. Under the trees among the flowers, Li Xiangjun’s piano sounds ding dong, and Chen Yuanyuan dances gracefully. Every quiet and moving is pleasing to the eye.

As an emperor who is about to establish his country, all the etiquette and rules of the royal family and the inner palace have been determined under the auspices of the Ministry of Rites. In terms of ordinary etiquette, Ying Yi specifically asked not to be too complicated. The true manifestation of etiquette is in national affairs, such as worshiping heaven and ancestors.

As for the clothing, it is naturally solemn and gorgeous. Ying Yi likes black, so the emperor's clothing is mainly black, supplemented by gold, purple cloud patterns, and accessories to set off the mystery and majesty. The concubines, palace maids, and female officials in the harem are mainly snow-white, tender yellow, and green. The overall style is more similar to the Tang Dynasty. It is open and bold, tempting and moving.

Lingling and Shuang'er were around Ying Yi, and they were also Ying Yi's pillows and became famous after the founding of the country.

After a song and dance, Chen Yuanyuan and Li Xiangjun came to Ying Yi's side.

Ying Yi smiled and said, "Today's singing and dancing are not as smooth as before, with a slight ups and downs. Could it be that he is unstable?"

Li Xiangjun said, "How can you not know?" She sighed slowly: "In two days, as a concubine, I will be a concubine. Looking back on the years, my heart will be ups and downs."

Chen Yuanyuan's pretty face turned slightly red, and she nodded and said yes.

Ying Yi laughed when he heard this: "There is such a fate in the world, so there is no need to think too much. It is your luck to be one with a husband and wife."

"I'm just a little worried." Li Xiangjun said: "After all, I'm from a tramp and sister Chen is probably going to ruin my reputation."

Ying Yi laughed loudly and teased, "I don't care, who dares to say more? Instead of thinking about these irrelevant things, the two beauties should think about how to make me more satisfied."

Xiangjun and Yuanyuan's faces were red, and they spat lightly and they were very embarrassed.

Ying Yi laughed loudly, hugged the two beauties, poured them into the flowers, and then stretched out his hand to pull Lingling and Shuang'er down. Then a sound of blushing and red ears accompanied the flowers, which was faintly ashamed.

At the Temple of Heaven, Huang Zongxi, the acting minister of the Ministry of Rites, Gu Yanwu, the deputy minister, and Wang Fu, went to the Temple of Heaven for the final inspection.

The founding ceremony for the heaven sacrifice will be held at the Temple of Heaven. For this purpose, the Temple of Heaven will be rebuilt and ritual vessels will be prepared.

These three came from Jiangnan after Ying Yi wiped out Jiangnan. Huang Zongxi and Gu Yanwu were over thirty years old, while Wang Fu was over 20 years old.

In fact, in addition to them, there were dozens of scholars invited from all over the country, but after a long conversation with Yi Yi, Ying Yi chose these three.

Some of their thoughts and opinions are in line with Ying Yi's expectations.

Of course, not all claims are consistent with Ying Yi's interests, such as Huang Zongxi's "dish-boiling" idea. Of course, the current "dish-boiling" idea is closer to Mencius' "the people are noble and the king is light", and Ying Yi can tolerate it.

The three of them suddenly ascended to the high position, and were naturally overjoyed. Traditional scholars all had the concept of "learning civil and military skills and making them from the imperial family" and stepped onto the political stage to realize their ambitions. However, the various heavy responsibilities that followed also made the three of them almost breathless.

Not to mention the development of the magnificent educational system that has been put on the agenda, just talking about the etiquette and constitution involved in the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty and Ying Yi ascended to the extreme, the three of them were busy without touching the ground.

"The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is only two days away. You and I have the three of you and I have the crown. When I am thirty years old, I will never make any mistakes, otherwise I will have no face to see you."

Huang Zongxi sighed, "The new dynasty is about to start, and the atmosphere is renewed, and you and I should also be diligent and diligent."

Gu Yanwu said: "We should make preparations and check them back and forth for seven or eight times, and there will be no mistakes when we come."

Wang Fuzhi seemed a little silent and nodded to say yes.
