Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

early morning.

Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu came to Xuding for a meeting.

"Just now Chen Lin, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, said that September [-]th is an auspicious time for enthronement. Seeing that the time is approaching, we should also consider the country name and year name. What are your ideas?" Xu Ding sat down and asked.

Jia Xu replied: "My lord raised troops in Donglai, how about taking the word 'Lai' as the country name? As for the year name."

"Lai? Isn't this too casual?" Xu Ding knew that the emperors all through the ages liked to take the titles related to him. For example, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was the king of Hanzhong before the founding of the country. After the founding of the country, he took a title Chinese character.

In the following hundreds of years, Jin, Sui, Tang, etc., also formulated the country names based on the name of the emperor Gaozu and the place where the army was raised.

But Xu Ding didn't like this.

"Wenhe, can we think of a special country name?" Xu Ding interrupted him.

"A special country name?"

"The lord has already thought of it?" Guo Jia asked.

"I did think of one. Just name it Huaxia, with the word Empire attached." Xu Ding said.

"Huaxia Empire." Jia Xu read slowly.

Although I don't understand why Xu Ding took it like this, it sounds very dignified.

"Good name." Guo Jia said.

"What's so good about it?" Xi Zhicai asked in a low voice.

"My lord took it, can it be okay?" Guo Jia also replied in a low voice, then cupped his hands and said: "My lord, the word Huaxia will definitely be passed on for hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of generations."

"Ah."

Xu Ding nodded.

The word Huaxia came from later generations.It is not an exaggeration to say that he will be passed on to thousands and thousands of generations.

Taking these two characters as the name of the country also has a long-lasting meaning.

"As for the year name, I also thought of it. It's called Yuan Dynasty." Xu Ding said.

These two words are even more difficult to understand than Huaxia.

Why is it called AD?

Jia Xu couldn't help asking: "Master, what does the word "Yu" mean?"

"No, I thought about it casually. If you insist on asking me to explain, it can be understood as the beginning of selflessness. Because the word "public" originally means selflessness. Yuan Zhe, the beginning. Together, it is the beginning of selflessness." Xu Ding explained casually. down.

"My lord's wonderful solution. The most difficult thing in the world is selflessness. And for a country, it is even more difficult to be selfless. If my Chinese Empire can do these two words well, it will be passed on to thousands of generations." Xi Zhicai said.

"You have no objections?"

"No no."

Xu Ding immediately made a decision: "Okay, since you have no objections, then it's decided like this. The country name is Huaxia, and the year name is AD. When the palace is completed, it will be officially enthroned on the ninth day of September."

Enthronement does not need to be agreed.

But it is also necessary to cooperate in due course.

Try on the dragon robe and dragon crown

Sacrificial rituals, etc.

These are very troublesome.

According to Chen Lin, the more troublesome it is, the more grand it looks.

Well, in order to establish imperial power, Xu Ding endured it.

Follow the Ministry of Rites to test again and again.

A month later.

There are still fifteen days until the day of enthronement.

Guoyuan completed the task ahead of schedule, and the sacrificial altar and Fengtian hall were all completed.Even the stone steps outside the Fengtian Temple were polished by craftsmen to shine.

From a distance, it really has the meaning of jade steps.

Originally, the Ministry of Industry also proposed to replace the stone steps with concrete floors, but Guoyuan firmly refused, and Xu Ding did not agree either.Because the stone steps outside the Fengtian Temple need to be very solemn, it is difficult to achieve that effect on the concrete floor.

The stone steps polished from a whole piece of Qinggang rock can be used as the jade steps outside Fengtian Hall.

"My lord, Cao Cao has sent troops." Early this morning, Guo Jia ran into the government office with a letter.

"When did you send troops?" Xu Ding took the letter.

"Yesterday at noon. Cao Cao issued a statement to the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, listing the lord as a traitor, and hurriedly recruited the princes of the world to gather in Yanzhou to crusade the lord. He personally led [-] cavalry and marched towards Hangu Pass and Hongnong."

After reading the letter, Xu Ding frowned and said, "Cao Cao really knows how to find time. My enthronement will be fifteen days later. Is he sending troops now to stop me?"

"Master." Guo Jia wanted to say something.

Xu Ding waved his hands at him: "Don't try to persuade me to give up the throne. We are ready for everything, just like an arrow that has been shot, and it can't be taken back. If we don't complete the enthronement etiquette, we will be ridiculed by the world."

"My lord is right. That's exactly what it is. Maybe Cao Cao also took a fancy to this and sent troops ahead of time." Guo Jia said.

"So, we have to send troops in advance!" Xu Ding had a plan in mind, took out the map and put it on the desk, and said, "As early as a month ago, I transferred Zhao Yun's sharp knife and Jia Xu's sharp blade to the tiger prison. Outside the pass. Now Cao Cao is still in Hongnong. Order Zhao Yun and Jia Xu to attack Hulao Pass. At the same time, order Xu Huang to lead the shield defense as a backup. After Zhao Yun and Jia Xu attack Hulao Pass, stand by and stand by."

"As ordered."

Guo Jia agreed.

But he didn't leave.

"My lord, since Cao Cao has sent troops, Liu Bei and Sun Jian cannot stand by and watch. I expect Liu Bei to launch an attack on our two prefectures, Hebei and Youzhou. Sun Jian will also send troops to Xuzhou, or come to Yanzhou to help in the war. We must guard against it." Guo Jiadao .

"Ah."

Xu Ding said: "Sun Jian has Zhou Yu, and Liu Bei has Zhuge Liang. They really should not be underestimated. Xuzhou is the heart of the Central Plains. After many years of our management, cement roads have been built. Sun Jian cannot be taken advantage of. Give Guan Yu an order to lead the Hebei Field Army , to garrison Hebei. Separate a battalion of cavalry from his command, preferably Ma Chao's heavy cavalry. A battalion of infantry, stationed in Pengcheng and Tanxian, and stick to Xuzhou."

"Yes."

"Wait." Xu Ding instinctively felt that this arrangement was a bit sloppy.

"Feng Xiao, is it really okay for me to arrange this way?"
