Chapter 274 – Sacrifice to the Taimiao, Sacrifice to the Jishan River!.
Chai Jin’s words and deeds inadvertently made the civil and military ministers of the Great Zhou pay attention to it, and Chai Hao was also keenly aware of this, which was extremely gratifying.
As the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou, Chai Hao’s mind accommodates the four seas, and he is even more able to accommodate those brothers and heroes who fight with him.
It’s just that since ancient times, it has been difficult to fight the world, and it is even more difficult to sit in the world.
Because after conquering the world, the disposal of the meritorious group is an extremely troublesome problem for the founding kings and future emperors.
After the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, won the world, because many meritorious ministers arrogantly defied the imperial power and thought they were meritorious heroes, they could not rest assured, killed Han Xin to force Xiao He, destroyed Yingbu, and even ordered his brother-in-law Fan Yu to kill before he died.
The same is true of the later Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang in history.
He was the founding king of the country, the Son of Heaven, and when he was in power, those Huaixi meritorious martial generals led by Lan Yu Li Shanchang began to gang up, form a party for personal gain, and bully the people.
Blue Jade even raised the dead warriors, secretly trespassed, and even accepted the princess of the Northern Yuan, committing the emperor’s taboo.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive, Lan Yu relied on his own merits, arrogant, and domineering, which led to the Blue Jade case initiated by Zhu Yuanzhang.
One case connected tens of thousands of people!
It’s not that Zhu Yuanzhang is ruthless, but those Huaixi meritorious groups, they are really pampered and arrogant, 203 broke the law! In contrast, Zhao Song Emperor Zhao Kuangyin’s cup of wine and release of military power is much milder.
But for Chai Hao, whether it is the disposal of the founding heroes by the ancestor of Han Gao, Ming Taizu, or the disposal of the founding heroes by Song Taizu, it is not what Chai Hao wants.
Although he won the world, he was not afraid of the martial arts heroes under his command, let alone regarded them as a threat to the rabbit and the dead dog, on the contrary, Chai Hao felt that these heroes of his should continue to show their talents in the Great Zhou, allow Wen Yunwu, and benefit the world.
At the same time, they also enjoy the merit and wealth they deserve.
However, Chai Hao has insight into ancient and modern times, and also knows that keeping a business is more difficult than starting a business. After winning the world, Chai Hao was not worried that there were ministers under him who were not ministers.
I am afraid that those former comrades-in-arms will be blinded by the power and wealth in their hands, forget their original intentions, and become corrupt officials like Dr. Zhao Songshi who exploits and harms the people and corrupts the law!
In that case, even if Chai Hao’s heart could not bear it, he would have to punish him in order to maintain the Great Zhou Law! He had been fighting abroad before, and Chai Hao did not think too much about this aspect.
But today’s preliminary peace, Chai Hao also began to think about how to prevent the heroes below from forgetting their original intentions, and he was still thinking about when to find a suitable opportunity to mention this matter with all the martial arts heroes.
Now, his uncle Chai Jin’s example has made all the civilians under his command pay attention and be alert, which has saved Chai Hao some things.
“Your Majesty, as soon as the items have been prepared, please ask Your Majesty to perform the ceremony of captivity!”
Just as Chai Hao was thinking, Imperial Uncle Chai Jin spoke again with a respectful face.
When Chai Hao heard this, he nodded with a smile, and then strode into the gate of the Imperial Temple. Behind him, Chai Jin and the ministers of civilization and martial arts of the Great Zhou rushed in.
Along with the entry, there is also a group of Yulin Army generals escorted by the Jin Emperor Wanyan Wu Begmai and many other kings and nobles of the Jin Kingdom, captives and captives who are also one of the protagonists today, after all, the so-called captivity is to sacrifice these prisoners to mountains and rivers to show the martial power of the Great Zhou Empire!
Among the temples, there are temples where the seven temples of the Son of Heaven are placed, and there is also an altar of mountains and rivers. That is, the Temple of Heaven and the Temple of Earth.
The Temple of Heaven is to sacrifice to the heavens, and the altar of the earth is to sacrifice to the earth.
The Seven Temples of the Son of Heaven are where the thrones of the emperors of the imperial dynasty are placed.
Later emperors will use these seven temples as the orthodoxy of the national dynasty, and every time there is a big ceremony, the country will be sacrificed! The seven temples of the Great Zhou, the first to be worshiped is Guo Wei, the ancestor of the Later Zhou.
The second sacrifice was made by Later Zhou Shizong Guo Rong, that is, Chai Rong.
The third sacrifice, the Later Zhou Shao Emperor Chai Zongxun, it was from Chai Zongxun that the descendants of the Chai clan were changed to the surname of Chai.
The fourth to fifth sacrifices were Chai Hao’s grandfather and father, and after Chai Hao became emperor, he also posthumously named his father emperor according to the custom, his grandfather was Chai Jin’s father, his father was Chai Jin’s brother, and the sixth and seventh temples were currently vacant. According to the convention, this is Chai Hao, the founding ancestor of the Great Zhou, and Chai Hao’s son.
In this way, there are the seven temples.
In the future, even if the Great Zhou Dynasty continues for a hundred generations, the highest place in the temple is also the divine throne of these seven generations of emperors, and it is not easy to live a hundred lives! At this moment, Chai Hao was in the seven temples, and after sacrificing the five ancestors, he was brought to the Great Zhou Heavenly Altar to worship the heavens.
It’s just that it’s a little different from Fang Cai’s temple, this time the festival, in addition to incense and three animals, there is also a blood sacrifice! And this blood sacrifice is naturally the head that the Golden Emperor bought after Yan Wu beg!
“Whoops, the sinner is finished!”
Raise troops without permission, slaughter living beings, and mutilate the Central Plains!
Cheng Chengtian responded to the order, hanged the people for the crime, exterminated the cruel Jin Kingdom, and captured Er in the temple.
“Today, tell the heavens, with the blood of the sinner to complete the Yan clan, sacrifice my Great Zhou Mountains and Rivers, and sacrifice the blood and hatred of the people of the Central Plains!” After Yan Wu begs to buy, what else can you say! ”
Chai Hao is wearing the crown of the Son of Heaven, with the twelve emblems of the sun and moon of mountains and rivers, and holding a Xuanyu wat board, showing the majesty of the emperor! At this moment, he was standing on the Temple of Heaven, overlooking the Yan Wu Begging Boy who was escorted kneeling under the steps below, and said in a majestic voice.
After Yan Wu begged to buy, his face was pale at the moment, the matter had come to this, he had nothing else to say, he only wanted to be liberated as soon as possible, so there he said woodenly: “The sinner finished Yan Wu begging to buy guilt!” ”
Above the Temple of Heaven, Chai Hao looked at Yan Wu Begmai, who had confessed his guilt, with an indifferent expression, and waved his hand lightly: “Chop!” ”
With Chai Hao’s order, a guard of the Son of Heaven of the Yulin Army waved the sword in his hand high and slashed down. With a splash of blood, the head of Yan Wu begging flew high, and then rolled down with a grunt.
The former lord of a generation of thousands of miles of land has landed on this head!
His blood stained the floor of the Great Zhou Temple and stained the red between the Temple of Heaven and the Temple of Earth.
The death of Yan Wu Beggarly also marked the complete end of Jin Guo! And the prosperous era of the Great Zhou will begin here!
With the end of the sacrificial ceremony.
Snowflakes are floating in the sky, a good snow in the year of Ruixue trillion!
And in this good snow, the first year of the Great Zhou Zhaowu came quietly!
On the first day of the first lunar month of the first year of Zhaowu, Chai Hao, the son of the Great Zhou Tianzi, came to the Taimiao Temple again to worship the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth. And this time, it was his enthronement ceremony!.
