The anti-Qing movement began with the looting of the Eight-Nation Alliance.

Chapter 246 One Family Enters Beijing

"Your Majesty, we must immediately dispatch the Imperial Astronomical Bureau to survey the land and locate the dragon veins for the construction of the imperial mausoleum!" Wang Kaiyun continued.

"The retired emperor repeatedly instructed that he wanted to return to his hometown, and he has already built a mausoleum in his hometown in western Hunan. Let's follow the retired emperor's wishes!"

“Your Majesty, the current status of the retired emperor is different from before! This is against etiquette. How can the tomb built in the past be used?” A minister in his fifties, wearing a second-rank official hat, stepped forward and bowed to report.

Shen Lian recognized him; this man was Dai Hongci, the Han Chinese Minister of Rites, Associate Grand Secretary, and Grand Councilor of the Qing Dynasty. Among the officials who surrendered, he was one of the highest-ranking.

This man was quite talented and hadn't committed any evil deeds. Shen Lian then took him under his command.

"The Emperor Emeritus personally selected the site and designed the construction of that mausoleum. I cannot disobey his last wishes. Let the Emperor Emeritus be buried in his hometown!"

"As for any parts that violate etiquette, you can modify them as appropriate! The country is newly established, and everything needs to be rebuilt. There are too many places where money is needed, so let's keep things simple!" Shen Lian waved his hand and said.

"Your Majesty's filial piety moves Heaven and Earth, and your self-discipline and frugality are truly a blessing to the nation!" Dai Hongci said sincerely, bowing with his hands clasped.

"Your Majesty's filial piety moves Heaven and Earth, and your self-discipline and frugality are truly a blessing to the nation!" A group of officials also flattered him.

"Alright! Mr. Wang, everyone, is there anything else?" Shen Lian waved his hand, too lazy to deal with these sycophants.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor Emeritus has passed away, this is a national mourning period! An imperial edict should be issued immediately to the whole country to observe a twenty-seven-day mourning period." Dai Hongci was the Minister of Rites, and was obviously well aware of these matters.

"Alright! Send a telegram to the world immediately!" Shen Lian was too lazy to argue with them about such a trivial matter.

"Your Majesty, the new empire's name and era name should be decided!" Wang Kaiyun said quickly while Shen Lian was still in the capital.

"Let's call the country the Chinese Empire! Abbreviated as China, it'll also fit foreign customs. As for the reign title; how about 'Holy Martial'?"

Shen Lian had discussed this matter with them many times, eliminating some whom they didn't like. Shen Lian thought the Saint Martial Emperor was pretty good. "Saint Martial Emperor" also sounded impressive.

He overthrew the Qing Dynasty by force, so the word "military" is definitely a factor. Emperor Guangwu of Liu Xiu and Emperor Hongwu of Zhu Yuanzhang were both excellent examples.

"As you command!" As for the reign title, as long as it's not too unpleasant and the emperor likes it, naturally none of the ministers objected.

Shen Lian then discussed some matters with the ministers before hurriedly leaving with his guard regiment.

Around midnight, the special train arrived in Jinan. Gu Hongming had already led a group of officials to greet him.

Shen Lian greeted them for a few moments, and then the group hurried back to the Qi Prince's Mansion.

At this moment, black and white curtains hung everywhere in the Qi Prince's mansion, creating a solemn and dignified atmosphere. Nie Xiaoqian, dressed in white mourning clothes, knelt in front of the mansion gate with her family to welcome them.

"Get up quickly!" Shen Lian stepped forward and personally helped Nie Xiaoqian, Yue'er, Ruyi, and the others to their feet. The children looked at him timidly; they were still young and a little afraid of him after not seeing him for several months.
