Chapter 812 New Dynasty (1)
After all, people who have read the book.
After struggling for a long time, Lu Xu thought of the third method, choosing representative things to name the country.
for example:
The Liao Kingdom established by Khitan was named after Bintie, which was chosen to symbolize the consolidation of the country's rule.
The vicinity of the capital of the Jin Dynasty was named after "gold" because it was rich in gold.
...
In this way, along this line of thought, Lu Xu thought for a long time alone.
It's a pity that for a long time in the past, apart from the above thoughts, there is no other clue.
Therefore, Lu Xu simply stopped being entangled. He decided to turn around and ask his precious son Lu Li, and ask the officials of the Ministry of Rites for their opinions.
Industry specializing in surgery.
It's impossible for this group of guys to rely on etiquette to eat without thinking of anything, right?
In fact, in order to show their own value, the officials of the Ministry of Rites are currently conducting internal discussions on how to choose the name of the new country.
Among them, some people think that the meaning of auspicious words or prophecies can be used to determine the name of the country!
This is slightly different from Lu Xu's idea, but it is roughly the same.
There is no way, in the eyes of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, the rise of the Henan Marquis lineage is indeed very short, and it is not as good as those ancient families that have been passed down for thousands of years.
In addition, the previous dynasty was established by a foreign race, wars broke out frequently, people left their homes, and many classics, especially the genealogy were destroyed, making it difficult to verify where the ancestors of the Lu family originated.
Therefore, the most orthodox method to determine the country name by using the place of residence of the ancestors obviously does not work.
Of course, Lu Li could easily solve the problem. One must know that King Ming Ling's avatar has a book of life and death, so it is easy to find out who his ancestors are in this world.
"Shilang, I think it's better to refer to Qi from the Southern Dynasty and Yuan from the former Dynasty."
"It is recorded in "The Biography of Cui Zusi, Volume 28 of the Southern Qi Dynasty", that at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, it was discussed that the Taizu was granted the title of Liang Gong, and Zusi Qi Taizu Day: The prophecy said: 'The golden knife and the sharp blade are mowed together'. .”
"Another example is the title of the Yuan Dynasty. Kublai Khan adopted the suggestion of Liu Bingzhong, the Taibao official, and took the meaning of "Dazai Qianyuan" in "Yi" and changed it from Mongolia to Yuan."
In the official office of the Ministry of Rites.
There was a young official in green robe who was boasting.
But the servant sitting on the main seat shook his head, and said frankly: "Forget it, it's not appropriate to put it on that person."
As he spoke, he pointed to the sky.
The world is rumored that Lu Li is the reincarnation of Greedy Wolf. Therefore, he is different from the previous emperors who established their authority by spreading rumors and man-made miracles.
The minister of the Ministry of Rites thought that there was no need to do anything extra, maybe the descendant god had already figured out a country name that fit the destiny.
In a word, no one dares to guarantee that they know the number of days better than gods.
"Well, let's choose Chu."
The minister of the Ministry of Rites considered for a moment, and gave a well-regulated answer, which not only has room for turning around, but also can demonstrate the presence of the Ministry of Rites.
"Kicking around and the ball coming back to me."
At the same time, Lu Li opened his closed eyes.
The entire Jinling City was under his surveillance, and he was aware of the father's murmurs and the exchanges between the officials of the Ministry of Rites.
To be honest, Lu Li himself was somewhat indifferent to the title of Chu State.
It is not related to the overlapping of the founding names of the ancients.
In fact, in the history of China, there were many dynasties sharing the country name.
In particular, characters such as Zhou, Qin, Han, Wei, Jin, and Tang have been repeatedly used as country titles many times.
For example, Liu Bei, who established his capital in Shu during the Three Kingdoms period, had the country name of Han. Regardless of the latecomers, there was the Western Han Dynasty founded by Han Gaozu Liu Bang, and the Eastern Han Dynasty rejuvenated by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.
Taking Zhou as an example again, the Ji family in the pre-Qin era first established the Zhou State, then Zi Wenjue established the Northern Zhou Dynasty during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Wu Zetian established the Wu Zhou Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty, Guo Wei in the Five Dynasties, Zhang Shicheng in the late Yuan Dynasty, and even Wu Sangui in the Qing Dynasty also tried to establish the Zhou Dynasty.
Among these common national titles, the most representative one is the Qin Dynasty. In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, Ying Qin, the survivors of Fen VI, achieved the great unification of the world and established the first feudal dynasty in China.
Later, at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Ju established the Qin Dynasty. During the Sixteen Kingdoms period, Fu Jian followed suit and founded the Qin State, as did Yao Jiang, Qi Fu Guoren and others.
In the same way, Lu Li can completely choose Chu as his country name, and this makes sense in terms of etiquette——
The Marquis of Henan is the title of the ancestor Lu Ju. According to the rules of determining the country's title by the title, Chu, Han, and Wei can all be used.
In addition, the descendants of the Lu family lived in Jinling for generations after they took over the title. This place also belonged to the state of Chu in the pre-Qin period.
In addition, the historical background of Chu State is deeper than that of other vassal states, and its status is also higher.
First of all, it is a vassal state recognized by Zhou Tianzi, but it was established earlier than the Zhou Dynasty, and it perished later than it. It has lived for 892 years. Such an amazing life span of the country can be said to be proud of the world!
Secondly, Chu State is one of the Five Hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period. It once aspired to the Central Plains. In the Warring States Period, it was also the only existence among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, and it was able to wrestle with Qin State head-on.
Finally, since Zhou and Chu, there have been Zhang Chu established by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang at the end of Qin Dynasty, Western Chu established by Xiang Yu, a descendant of Chu State, Han Xin, the first king of Chu in Western Han Dynasty, and Huan Xuan, a family leader at the end of Eastern Jin Dynasty, who forced Jin'an Emperor Zen to take his place. Huan Chu... There are precedents to follow.
It is not difficult to see from this that the officials of the Ministry of Rites do have some knowledge.
However, Lu Li still couldn't like this country name, and felt that it was not so interesting.
"How about the country name 'Xin'?"
Looking ahead at the ancient city that was bustling with traffic and was several times more prosperous than before, a word suddenly crossed Lu Li's mind, as if on a whim, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was appropriate.
below.
The Bull Demon, who was about to fly over the top of Jinling City so as not to disturb the people, was stunned for a moment, and thought:
Such a serious matter, why ask me, an old cow who has never seen the world?
However, since the master asked the question, the Bull Demon would definitely answer.
It stopped in its tracks and pondered for a long time. Finally, it squeezed out a suitable word from its barren vocabulary, and said in a low voice:
“Vientiane is new, very good!”
One yuan starts again, Vientiane is renewed.
The word "new" could not be more suitable for ending the troubled times and changing the dynasty.
Seeing that his idea was recognized, Lu Li couldn't help but smile. Soon, he will create a new dynasty, whether it is the world or the underworld, whether it is a living person, a ghost, or a demon or a god. under the rule.
"It can be regarded as the first time in the world."
"Let's go back home."
After speaking, Lu Li rubbed the bull demon's head.
Sensing the master's state of mind, the Bull Demon took off without any hesitation, jumped high, and the next time he fell to the ground, he would arrive at the open space in the garden of the Hou Mansion.
Discuss business matters with my father first, and then discuss in detail with Zhiqiu Yiye, a Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain and a representative of the Kunlun School.
After these things are completed, the civil and military officials can be informed to prepare for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, formally overthrowing the Ming Dynasty, and establishing a new order.
