Grace Yue's Silent Strength: The Pillar of Henry Yuan's Guar Chapter 344

Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand grains in autumn. Autumn has always been the most pleasant season. As long as the harvest is good, the people's hard work will be rewarded and the national treasury will be greatly filled. If it is a good year, the people will have a good family and the court will have abundant fruits, which is a blessing for the whole country.

Chen Yu had just ascended the throne when he encountered such a bumper year. This was a good omen sent from heaven for the new monarch, foreshadowing the prosperity of the country, and was naturally well publicized.

But logically speaking, this year should not be counted on Chen Yu.

According to the ancestral calendar, when a new emperor ascends the throne, a new reign title must be changed, but this reign title will only be counted as the first year from the next year. The old reign title must be used this year to show respect for the previous emperor.

However, after Emperor Zhaowu entered the capital, he was forced to abdicate. He was succeeded by the thirteenth prince, Zhu Lanting's nephew. However, this emperor was never legitimate and was opposed by many people in the court and the public. When Feng's army entered the capital, they were always in a tug of war over this issue.
