NOVEL NEXT Chapter 19
In ancient times, when a man became an adult, it was inconvenient to call him by his first name, so he chose another name that represented his virtue.
Therefore, the word is also called the word table.
Ancient literati paid special attention to etiquette and were very particular about titles.
In interpersonal communication, first names are generally used as a form of modesty for oneself, or as a term of address from superiors to subordinates, or from elders to juniors.
It is considered impolite to call people by their first names among peers.
It is considered polite among peers to address each other by name.
When writing or calling someone from inferior to superior, humble to superior, you can call the other person by name, but never by name.
In particular, the names of the monarch or one's parents and elders cannot even be mentioned, otherwise it would be disrespectful and treasonous, so a taboo system was created.
For example, Li Yuan's name contains the character Yuan, so Long Yuan Sword was changed to Long Quan Sword.
Another example is that the first month of the lunar calendar was originally called Zhengyue.
Because the ancient emperor had to accept the worship of hundreds of officials and decide the political affairs for the next year in the first month of the year, so that month was called the political month.
Qin Shihuang was born in January, so he was named Ying Zheng.
In order to avoid taboos, later generations changed the political month to the first month. Zheng is not reading politics, but reading Zhengzheng. The ligatures and pronunciations have all been changed.
Another example is that Qin Shihuang's father was named Ying Zichu, so he changed the land of Chu to Jing.
Another example is that Liu Bang's queen's surname was Lu and her name was Pheasant. From now on, whenever pheasants were encountered in documents, they were replaced by pheasants.
The most powerful one was Li Shimin later. In order to avoid his name, people changed the name of Guanyin to Guanyin.
There is also the Ministry of Civil Affairs, one of the six ministries in the three provinces, which was also changed to the Ministry of Households because of taboos about Li Shimin.
In short, in ancient times, once a man was crowned, others could never call him by his name lightly.
Therefore, the expression is very important.
Li Yuan frowned and thought hard, pondered again and again, and finally a smile appeared on his face and said:"Ziguan, Li Ziguan. Changqing, you like this word."
Kong Yingda's face changed immediately when he heard this.
Zi, a good name for men.
The crown is called respect and is in the first place.
Ziguan, Ziguan, means that my son Li Changqing has a high status, surpassing everyone and occupying the first place.
The meaning of this is worth pondering.
Kong Yingda understood the meaning instantly. The other civil and military officials present, and many of them were knowledgeable, how could they not understand it.
Li Shimin's face was as calm as water, and his expression was extremely ugly.
Li Yuan first gave Li Changqing the right to supervise all officials and kill them first and then report them. He also gave him the Emperor's Sword, and now he also gave him the nickname Ziguan.
Such treatment is far inferior to that of the prince.
Li Changqing bowed respectfully:"Thank you, Father, for giving me the calligraphy. I am very satisfied.""
"Ha ha ha ha."
Li Yuan laughed three times and was in a good mood.
"Now that the ceremony has been completed, the Qintian Supervisor should select a good and auspicious day as soon as possible so that my son Guan can get married as soon as possible."
In front of the officials, next to Li Shimin, Li Xiuning saw that Li Changqing had put his hair into a bun and tied it with a nine-pin crown. He couldn't help but feel sad. The tied hair and crown means that he has reached adulthood and can get married and have children.
Admiral Tiance The crowning ceremony alarmed the entire city of Chang'an.
He appointed his own officials, supervised all officials, and killed them first before reporting them.
These three privileges made the officials in the capital secretly frightened. At the same time, they felt increasingly unable to understand Li Yuan's thoughts.
This overriding The power of the crown prince was actually given to an adopted son!
The name Ziguan spread quickly like a hurricane throughout every inch of the Tang Empire.
From then on, everyone knew that General Tiance Li Ziguan
……
Prince Qin's Mansion.
Li Shimin summoned Changsun Wuji in the inner hall
"Supervise hundreds of officials, kill them first and then report them! Li Shimin had already crushed the third tea cup and asked in a deep voice:"Auxiliary machine, please tell me, what is your father's intention?" Changsun
Wuji's eyes flashed, and his heart was extremely uneasy.
He was almost convinced that Li Yuan was going to make Li Changqing the crown prince.
After carefully sorting out all the details, Changsun Wuji said:"King Qin, Your Majesty, Admiral Tiance's favor exceeds our expectations.
He was given the title of Ziguan, given the Longquan Sword, and given the power to supervise hundreds of officials, behead them first and report later. This is the regent!
Of course, it is also possible that His Majesty intends to support General Tiance in order to check and balance you, King Qin, but this possibility is unlikely.
Nowadays, no one can rule out whether His Majesty intends to appoint Tiance as the Crown Prince."
"Even if the eldest brother is deposed, Sheji may still be left behind!"Li Shimin took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and asked:"How should I deal with this situation?"
Changsun Wuji did not answer immediately, but was silent and thinking hard.
Li Shimin did not rush him, and sat silently waiting.
After half a stick of incense, Changsun Wuji said solemnly:"Eight days later, ten On the third day of the lunar month, General Tiance went to the border to take up command in Youzhou to resist the Turks.
As soon as the 80,000 white-robed troops outside Chang'an City followed General Tiance and left, the capital no longer had any defenders.
The King of Qin could take advantage of this perfect opportunity to launch a mutiny, use the Xuanjia Army to control the imperial city, and force His Majesty to abdicate.
By then, General Tiance was far away in Youzhou, fighting with the Turks. He was too busy to take into account the changes in the capital.
Even if he later withdraws, King Qin, you have already secured your position and everything is done."
Li Shimin's face kept changing, and there was a war between heaven and man in his heart.
Force the palace!
He thought he was a filial son, but in just a few days, he launched two mutinies to force the palace.
In the end, an incomparable light burst out in his eyes The fierce and fierce light roared in a hoarse voice:
"Father, you forced me to do this! I can only blame you for being too partial to your sixth brother, otherwise I would be so frightened that I had to rebel!
He looked firm and said:"Since we are going to rebel, we must be fully prepared." Auxiliary engine, everything is left to you!
Changsun Wuji stood up and bowed down,"I will definitely live up to my lord's trust!""
The title of Li Shimin was changed from King of Qin to Lord to express his inner position.
Li Shimin also stood up and helped him up, and said very excitedly:"The auxiliary machine has the talent of the ovary, and I have the auxiliary machine to help, and the great cause is half done! If you ascend the throne from now on, you will be my subordinate!"
The two people's eyes met, and there were fierce sparks of friction.
There was no trace of panic or fear of rebellion on their faces, but only excitement and excitement.
