    ps: I hope that friends of "Rebirth of Lu Bu to Unify the Three Kingdoms" will pay attention to my new book "Super Ambiguous Master", and I hope you can give me more valuable opinions!

    While Lu Bu continued to tour around the country to weaken the power of the royalists, news came from the capital that the young emperor Liu Bian had passed away from overdose.

    Lu Bu quickly led his troops back to Luoyang. At this time, all the slightly powerful Han clan clans across the country were purged by Lu Bu in the name of Liu Bian. The only person who could inherit the throne of Liu Bian was Liu Xi, the illegitimate son of Lu Bu and Queen Tang Yan.

    Should Liu Xi be promoted to the throne as a matter of course and he should be the regent, or should he simply wear a yellow robe and become the emperor on his own?

    The best example of pushing an illegitimate or suspected illegitimate child to the throne is Lu Buwei and Dorgon. Neither of them had a good end. Their tragic end made Lu Bu wake up. He should not give up the throne just to care for the opinions of a few people. Power will lose his mind.  , if he hands the throne to Liu Xi, when he is full-fledged, the father and son will definitely break up, just like Li Yuan, Li Shimin, Li Longji and his son. Lu Bu does not want to repeat their mistakes.

    Looking back at Huangpao's attempt to usurp the throne, Wang Mang was successful at the time, but failed because of unfavorable reforms. Cao Pi, Sima Yan, Yang Jian, Zhao Kuangyin, and even Yuan Shikai before he proclaimed himself emperor. The successful experiences of these people told Lu Bu that the only way to usurp the throne was to be ruthless.  Only by seizing power and fully controlling it can you ensure the interests of your generation and your fame for generations to come. Otherwise, like Cao Cao, who scruples about reputation and ends up being infamy for the ages.

    Lu Bu did not proclaim himself emperor immediately. He first asked Kong Rong to arrange Liu Bian's funeral, which was copied according to the specifications of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. As the consort of Wannian Princess Liu Yan, Lu Bu also participated in the funeral.

    After the funeral, expressions of support for Lu Bu's ascension to the throne and proclaimed emperor came to Luoyang from all over the country.  All the generals with heavy troops, all the chambers of commerce, all the schools, all the farmers' associations, all the trade unions, all the churches, most of the officials, most of the family figures, and most of the merchants all offered their advice, and all the major newspapers reviewed Lu Bu at length.  Most of the people of the Han Dynasty deeply feel that without Lu Bu, their current prosperous, stable and prosperous life would not be possible.

    L¨¹ Bu convened an enlarged cabinet meeting and called together all the key figures of the royalist party. Zheng Xuan and Kong Rong both suspected that these persuasion were ordered by L¨¹ Bu in advance. L¨¹ Bu smiled and said nothing, and Tian Feng suggested it.  A referendum was held on whether Liu Xi should be proclaimed emperor or Lu Bu should be proclaimed emperor.

    The result of the referendum was that 999 out of 1,000 people agreed with Lu Bu's proclaiming emperor, while only more than 40,000 people out of 45 million Han people agreed with Liu Xi's proclaiming emperor.  The minority will naturally obey the majority.

    As early as a few months ago, Lu Bu organized Zhou Qun, Ju Shou, Sima Hui and others to determine the Gregorian calendar. He chose the first day of January in 202 AD to ascend the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and on this day he launched the Chinese calendar.  From now on, the Gregorian Calendar system has completely abolished the system of chronological era names. It has changed the foolish practice of creating many era names just to torment the people when the emperor changes or if something happens to him during his tenure.  The solar calendar and the lunar calendar run in parallel. As the official calendar, the solar calendar records history and determines military and national events. The lunar calendar is used to guide agricultural production and determine annual festivals and holidays.

    Lu Bu also abolished the previous calendar system of heavenly stems and earthly branches.  At the same time, I also abolished the AD era (AD era) in my heart. The savior of the foreign devils was nothing to the Chinese. In that era, the era was based on that era in order to integrate with the world. Now Lu Bu rules the world.  The world looks to the East, and the East looks to China.  So Lu Bu moved out of the Yellow Emperor's chronology.  The reason why the Yellow Emperor is used to chronologically is that when the four gods Pangu, Huaxu, Fuxi and Nuwa were born, the human world was sparsely populated and they did not form a society or primitive China. The prototype of China began with the Yellow Emperor, and the Yellow Emperor era is equal to the AD era.  +2698 (year), for the convenience of his own calculation, and because the algorithm of the AD calendar was made up by a group of monks, Lu Bu also calculated the Yellow Emperor's calendar as the AD year plus 2798 years. In this way, Lu Bu founded New China  The year of the empire is the year 3001 of the Yellow Emperor. In order to simplify the commemoration in the future, Lu Bu also created a chronological system called "Huayuan". Counting from the year when the new empire began, the year when the Yellow Emperor established it will be regarded as the year before the Huayuan.  3000 years.

    Lu Bu did not want his dynasty to be called "Later Han" by later generations, so he abolished the original name of the country "Han" and changed the name of the country to "Zhonghua". It was called the "Chinese Empire", or China for short. The chronology of the Chinese Empire is Huayuan.  January 1, 202 AD is regarded as the first year of Huayuan, which was previously called Huayuan B.C.

    Lu Bu continued to choose Luoyang as the capital of the Chinese Empire.

    At the beginning of his accession to the throne, Lu Bu held the first court meeting to discuss various systems of the new dynasty.

    This court meeting is also known as the imperial meeting. In the future, the formulation of national policies and other major decisions will all go through the imperial meeting's decision-making.  People who participated in the imperial meetingAmong them were the Sangong and Jiuqing, the six ministers of the Government Affairs Council, the six governors of the Military Affairs Council, the Yushitai, the General Intelligence Agency, and the main officials of the Tongtian Sect headquarters. Ten people were selected from among them to form a ten-person cabinet, as Lu Bu's  The advisory team assisted Lu Bu in handling some ordinary memorials and less urgent national affairs, similar to the cabinet system of the later Ming Dynasty.

    Drafts for soliciting opinions on the national flag, national emblem, national music, and chronology have been distributed to various places half a year in advance. The collected design drafts were screened by the imperial meeting, and then finalized by Lu Bu, and have been promulgated since then.

    The national flag is a golden dragon and a red flag. The golden dragon symbolizes the supremacy of imperial power, and the red flag not only symbolizes the iron-blooded determination to conquer all directions, but also symbolizes that the Chinese people will prosper and the national destiny will continue to be prosperous under the leadership of Emperor Lu Bu.

    In the middle of the national emblem is the China Gate illuminated by a red sun, and the edge of the national emblem is surrounded by auspicious clouds, symbolizing the rising power of the country.

    The national anthem is "Plum Blossom": "Plum blossoms are all over the world. The colder they are, the more they bloom. The perseverance of plum blossoms symbolizes our towering Greater China. Look, plum blossoms are blooming everywhere. Wherever there is land, they are there. They are not afraid of ice, snow, wind and rain. They are mine.  National flower.¡±

    Lu Bu once thought about using "March of the Volunteers" as the national anthem, but then he thought about it. Today's Han people are not like the Chinese people in later generations who suffered from Japanese invasion, so they cannot empathize with them. It is better to use plum blossoms to chant their aspirations and inspire them.

    "Plum blossoms are all over the world" and "Plum blossoms are blooming everywhere, and wherever there is land, there will be them", which represent the ambition of Lu Bu and the Han soldiers and civilians to work hard to expand their living space for the descendants of the Han Dynasty for generations to come.

    As a new military song, it is "Wu Yi" in "The Book of Songs Qin Feng": "How can we say Wu Yi? We share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, I repaired my spear and spear, and I share the same enemy with you! How can I say Wu Yi?  ? I share the same river with you. When the king raises his troops, I repair my spears and halberds, and I work together with you! How can I say that I have no clothes? I share my clothes with you. When the king raises his troops, I repair my armor and soldiers, and I go together with you!" This is a widely circulated poem.  Military songs have been regarded as military songs by armies in all dynasties. Lu Bu thought that this military song was good and could be kept.

    Unify the national language characters and gradually implement simplified Chinese characters and Mandarin. Mandarin uses Luoyang dialect as the standard pronunciation.  Luoyang dialect was originally the Yayan spoken throughout the country in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The language of the Book of Songs was Yayan. Confucius used Yayan in his lectures instead of the Lu dialect. Confucius became a pioneer in promoting a common national language.  During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, "Tongyu" based on Luoyang pronunciation was spread from the Central Plains to the north and Jiangzuo area.  Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty made Luoyang his capital and moved tens of thousands of wealthy merchants from all over the country to Luoyang to promote the correct pronunciation and correct language represented by Luoyang.  In the Tang Dynasty, Luoyang dialect was regarded as the basis of the common language of the Han nation. The poems written during the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty also put forward phonetic requirements, that is, they must conform to the "Qie Yun" that was handed down from the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties and used Luoyang phonetic as the standard pronunciation.  specification.  Luoyang dialect and Bianjing dialect are very close, and the pronunciation spread in the two places is called "Central Plains Yayin". "Luoyang has the most correct pronunciation in the world in Central Plains."

    There are temporarily fifteen prefectures and five direct-governed prefectures in the country, with Sizhou as the first prefecture. The five directly-governed prefectures are Luoyang Prefecture in Zhongjing, Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo, Chang'an Prefecture in Xijing, Yecheng Prefecture in Beijing, and Jiuyuan Prefecture in Zujing. Twenty prefectures will be established in the future.  (one hundred counties) and ten prefectures.

    A month later, the preparations for the enthronement ceremony were completed. Except for the deputy generals of each expeditionary force who stayed at the station, other generals rushed to Luoyang one after another to participate in the enthronement ceremony of Lord Lu Bu and receive awards after the ceremony.  Fifty thousand elite troops from various garrisons around Luoyang Prefecture were also selected, and together with the Guards led by Lu Bu, 100,000 people participated in the military parade for the enthronement ceremony.

    This year, the year 3001 of the Huang Yuan Dynasty, the first year of the Hua Yuan Dynasty, which was the year 201 AD, on January 1 of this year, the founding ceremony of the Chinese Empire was held grandly.

    There are carved beams and painted pillars on the Zhonghua Gate of the south gate of the imperial city, and thousands of yellow dragon flags and unicorn flags are flying; on the school field in front of the Zhonghua Gate, one hundred thousand elite troops are wearing the latest uniforms and holding the latest weapons, looking majestic and mighty.  Further away, millions of people from Luoyang Prefecture and surrounding Sizhou, Chang'an Prefecture, and Kaifeng Prefecture came to watch the ceremony.

    Hundreds of Tongtian priests on the Zhonghua Gate tower shouted in unison: "Your Majesty has arrived!"

    Amid the cheers of millions of soldiers and civilians "Long live! Long live! Long live", Lu Bu, dressed in a golden dragon robe, majestically and solemnly walked out of the Zhonghua Gate, and walked along the long temporary white marble stairs towards the Zhonghua Gate Tower.  go.

    Lu Bu was followed by thousands of military ministers headed by Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Dong Zhao, Tian Feng, Ju Shou and Guo Jia. Everyone also put on brand new court uniforms and were in high spirits.  Followed behind with a face of joy!

    After a while, Lu Bu reached the coronation stage at the top of the Zhonghua Gate Tower and turned to face the south. Wu Qun and his ministers stood on both sides.

    Zuo Ci, the master of ceremonies of the enthronement ceremony, loudly said: "The enthronement ceremony begins now!" As the thousands of Tongtian priests participating in the ceremony practiced their skills together, and cooperated with the loudspeaker invented by Lu Bu,??, spreading the sound throughout Luoyang City and even further.

    On the drum stage of the Chinese Tower, the Guards Band played the traditional Chinese music composed by Lu Bu. The music was exciting and raised the atmosphere of the whole city to the highest level.
