The edict was read out, and what Liu Jian had to do had been done.

The next highlight belongs to Mr. Guo.

Mr. Guo quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Liu Jian, shouting no. Liu Jian stood up and walked to Mr. Guo as he rehearsed before, and asked Mr. Guo to stand up and accept his abdication.

Guo did not stand up and said loudly that no, Liu Jian asked him to get up again, Guo Peng refused again, Liu Jian asked him to get up for the third time, accepted the abdication, and directly helped Guo up.

Seeing that Guo could no longer refuse, he had to accept the abdication of Emperor Liu Jian with tears in his eyes and take over the throne.

With excitement, Cheng Yu presented two edicts to Guo with trembling hands. Guo bowed and took it, took it with both hands, and expressed his gratitude to Emperor Liu Jian of Han for the last time.

Liu Jian encouraged Mr. Guo, then waved his hand and the two teams of eunuchs appeared in the hall.

One team was responsible for taking off the emperor's crown and changing into the minister's crown for Liu Jian, while the other team took off the minister's crown and changing into the emperor's crown for Mr. Guo.

The two teams operate together. Judging from the skillful appearance, you will know that this is definitely not the first time you operate this.

Of course, no one will stand up and ask them why you are so skilled?

They skillfully dragged down the emperor's crown and uniform for Liu Jian, and put on the crown and uniform standard used by his ministers was similar to that used by Guo when he was granted the title of Duke, but the colors were different.

Mr. Guo was also skillfully taken off the crown and put on the crown and the emperor. The style was no different from that used by Liu Jian, and the color was also different.

The crown and clothes used by Liu Jian are red as the color, while the crown and clothes used by Mr. Guo are yellow as the color.

The Han Dynasty advocated fire virtue and was known as the Yan Han Dynasty. However, the Wei Dynasty in the Han Dynasty was always said, according to the five elements, it should be the virtue of the earth, so the color of the land should be the color of the country.

After wearing the crown and clothing, Liu Jian handed over the six seals of the emperor and the imperial seal, which he had, to Guo.

After Mr. Guo took over these seven jade seals and the military tiger talisman, the handover of imperial power was completed. At this time, the time was just right, and the official reported the voice that had arrived at midnight.

So Guo exchanged positions with Liu Jian in a timely manner.

Mr. Guo stepped on the stairs and stood on the high platform occupied by the emperor, then walked to the edge of the throne where Liu Jian sat, looked at the unusual throne, took a deep breath, walked forward, turned around, lifted up his forward swing, bent his knees forward, and knelt on the imperial throne.

Then he spread his hands, waved his sleeves, then took back his hands, placed them on his thighs, and sat upright.

Emperor Guo Peng of the Great Wei Empire was sitting there!

At this moment, Guo Jin was quietly standing at the top of the line of ministers, waiting for the title of the title.

As the official of rituals, Cheng Yu also stood at the stairs and knelt down to the new emperor Guo Peng with Liu Jian, Guo Jin and his ministers.

"I, pay my respects to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

The ministers shouted loudly in unison, knelt on the ground, and expressed their surrender and loyalty to the new emperor.

The voice came from inside the hall to outside the hall, and then returned to inside the hall from outside the hall.

All the officials in the hall can accommodate top-level officials, and the rest of the officials can only stay outside the hall, waiting for the birth of the new dynasty in the cold wind.

It also made them suffer.

Finally, they waited for this moment, so they knelt down with the people in front of them, and shouted loudly in unison to offer blessings and loyalty to the new emperor.

Outside the hall, drums and trumpets sounded again, indicating the establishment of a brand new country.

Seeing this scene and hearing the sound of surrender, Guo Peng felt very moved.

The rehearsal has been rehearsing many times, and this person has also sat down many times, but when he saw this scene with his own eyes, Guo Peng couldn't help but feel excited.

He now understood what Liu Bang felt when he ascended the throne and became emperor.

Today I know the taste of being an emperor.

In fact, there is still a big difference between an emperor and a real emperor. With great righteousness and power, it means that the emperor can sit in public and accept worship.

At this moment, the new dynasty was established and the old dynasty ended.

The Wei Empire was born and the Han Empire was declared over.

The Han Empire died and was buried safely.

Guo Peng felt the majesty of being an emperor, then sorted out his mood and raised his hands.

"The Lords are calm."

He announced in a deep and magnetic voice.

The ministers shouted "Thank you Your Majesty", and then stood up one after another. Then the civil and military officials were divided into two sides. The civil and military officials were on the left and the military officials were on the right. They all returned to the back of their seats, bent their knees forward and knelt on their soft cushions.

Keep silent and look straight, the entire hall is quiet.

The ministers outside the hall also got their own cushions and sat down one after another, at least to relieve the soreness and weakness of their legs.

Then, in order to take care of these ministers who were blowing cold wind outside the hall and show the humanity of the new dynasty, Guo Peng specially ordered the eunuchs to give the ministers outside the hall a bowl of hot ginger soup to warm their bodies and avoid being frozen.

The ministers outside the hall received ginger soup and were all grateful and expressed their gratitude to the new emperor Guo Peng outside the hall.

After expressing gratitude, it’s time to get to the point.

Announcement of the National Founding Program, changes needed and rewards.

This is what the founding emperor must do, his summary of the old dynasty, his expectations for the new dynasty, and his rewards to his heroes.

Guo Peng had already made a complete arrangement for these things before he became emperor.

He wanted to make major changes and make major changes to the political structure and military system of the Han Dynasty.

But first, the royal family must be sealed.

Several eunuchs stood in a row, holding the emperor's edicts in their hands, and presented them to the ceremony host Cheng Yu one by one.

Cheng Yu picked up the first edict and unfolded it.

He solemnly and solemnly declared that the new dynasty's name was Wei, and the new year's name was Yande.

The third year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty has ended. This year, the new year, is the first year of Wei Yande.

Then came the second edict, which was unveiled. Cheng Yu announced that because of the new dynasty, it was established as Tude, so "Luoyang" was changed to "Luoyang", and Luoyang was regarded as the capital of the Wei Empire.

Then came the third edict. The new emperor Guo Peng conferred the throne of Han Emperor Liu Jian as Duke of Shanyang, Wei State, with a fief of 10,000 households. Shanyang County was changed to Shanyang State. He was appointed as the former emperor of the Han Dynasty with a ceremonial guard in his fiefdom. He was given the emperor's ritual to worship the former emperors of the Han Dynasty. He was given the righteous and consecrated to the official emperors of the Han Dynasty. He did not have to submit to the above statements, nor did he have to kneel down to receive the edict. Shanyang Duke was granted the title of the emperor and inherited the inheritance.

The newly released Shanyang Duke Liu Jian was very happy and immediately knelt down to accept the edict. Guo Peng immediately stood up, walked down the steps and helped Liu Jian up himself.

"I just said that Shanyang Gong does not need to surrender, and receives an edict, and I do not need to kneel down. This world is shared by Shanyang and I."

Guo Peng held Liu Jian's hand tightly, and Liu Jian expressed gratitude.

The new emperor is so kind and the deposed emperor is so grateful, which shows how humane the new dynasty is.

After seeing this scene, the ministers sighed very much, feeling that the new dynasty was expected.

After Liu Jian received the reward from Duke Shanyang, Cheng Yu began to read the fourth edict.

The fourth edict was an edict to enthrone the royal family of Guo and Wei.

Guo Peng respected his grandfather Guo Yong as Emperor Xi Zuren, and respected his grandmother Zhao as Empress Ren.

Guo Peng respected his biological father Guo Shan as the Supreme Emperor of Wei, and respected his mother Yang as the Supreme Empress of Wei.

Guo Peng made his wife Cao Lan the empress of Wei State and his eldest son Guo Jin the crown prince of Wei State.

The former Han Dynasty originally had fourteenth harem rules. After the Guangwu Revival, in order to show frugality, the Later Han Dynasty had only the titles of queen and noble, and later they joined the titles of beauty, palace maid, and female picking.

Guo Peng decided to inherit the system of the Later Han Dynasty, and appointed his concubine Mi as a nobleman, his concubine Xiahou, his concubine Tian as a beauty, and his concubine Qiao as a palace servant.

He named his brother Guo Yang as King of Zhao, with a fief of 3,000 households. He lived in the capital and was not a vassal. He also named Guo Yang's wife Li as the wife of King of Zhao, and his rank of King of Zhao was hereditary.

The number of members of the Guo family's direct royal family is indeed not large.

Grandfather Guo Yong gave birth to several sons, but only his father Guo Shan survived. When Guo Peng grew up, all the relatives of Guo Shan's generation died, and Guo Shan himself had only two sons, one Guo Peng and one Guo Yang, so it was simply divided into the enfeoffment.

Guo Peng's children were not adults except Guo Jin, so they were not in a hurry to be crowned kings. The Guo family's royal family was first established, so there were not too many people.

No one from the relatives of the family got the title of king, and even the duke did not get it. Only Guo Hong got the first-class marquis because of his status and merits, and Guo Jia got the second-class marquis because of his merits.

Guo Peng restored the fifth-class title system in the Spring and Autumn Period, abolished the twenty-level title system implemented by the Qin and Han Dynasties, and added three levels to each level under the fifth-class title system, gradually increasing from third-class to first-class, with the highest being first-class duke and the lowest being third-class baron.

Similarly, Mr. Guo decisively tore up Liu Bang's White Horse Alliance, but he established his own White Horse Alliance in a hypocritical and shameless manner.

Only Guo can be the title of king, and the highest title of minister is the first-class duke.

Except for Guo Hong and Guo Jia, the other children of the Guo clan were Guo Rui and Guo Yi and Guo Lie and Guo Dong, who served in senior official positions and military positions, won the second-class earl.

The other Guo family members who held general positions only received third-class viscounts at most, and some barons, most of whom did not even have a title.

It seems that Guo Peng does not intend to confer great titles on the Guo kings to protect the royal family.

These cannot be considered the highlight, but they also made some keen court officials notice Guo Peng's dissatisfaction with the Han system and what he would do in the future.

It seems that Guo Peng was very dissatisfied with the rebellion of the Seven Kings of Han, so he decided to use the method of being a king but not being a vassal to restrict the clan.

The Qin Dynasty did the same, but the Qin II died.

The Han did not do this, but indeed, the rebellion of the Seven Kings must be observed.

So there may be debates about such things in the future, but now there is still not much discussion.
