Three days later, the imperial city was lit up and down, and it was a festive scene.

Today is the day Fang Chen ascended the throne. The honor guard and officials of all sizes in Beijing were waiting in line early in the morning, and many people were nervous in their hearts, as if they were worried about their fate. Because there were rumors in advance, there is something important to announce today. And the most different thing between today and the past is that there are many ordinary people in this formation, and even some disciples of the beggar gang.

"The emperor has arrived." After a eunuch duck sang a promise, the hall that was still whispering just now immediately fell silent.

Fang Chen was dressed in a dragon robe and an imperial official, and appeared majestically in front of everyone.

Everyone bowed down in unison, shouting long live, and the sound resounded through the palace. I'm afraid that in that small village back then, no one would have imagined that the little doll with a gray face could now sit on this Jinluan Palace and become the master of all peoples. The ancients said, don't bully the poor of young people. It is this truth that maybe today you are not the best, but who can guarantee that tomorrow you will not be the best.

"Everyone loves to be flat." Fang Chen looks authentic, although he has just sat on the throne of the emperor, he is also familiar with a lot of court etiquette.

Wait for the ministers to get up. Fang Chen continued: "Today is the day I ascend the throne, and I hope that in the future, all ministers can work together to help me govern the country well and let the people live and work in peace and contentment." ”

The ministers shouted again and again. These ministers are the best at saying this, and they can't be wrong.

"Today, everyone must be very strange why there are so many ordinary people in the court. What I want to tell you is that they will soon become your colleagues. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a whisper underneath.

Fang Chen cleared his throat: "Three days ago, Liu Yi committed a rebellion, everyone must remember it vividly." In that rebellion, the Beggar Gang and Jiulian Mountain contributed a lot, and I decided to reward them. The leader of the beggar gang stepped forward to stop the seal. ”

The leader of the beggar gang hurriedly came out.

"The leader of the beggar gang led the leader of the beggar gang to quell the rebellion, and I specially named you the general of pacification, and the official worships the second grade. The eight elders below the gang leader are all generals, and the officials worship the three grades, and if they have military merits in the future, they will be promoted as appropriate. There are rewards from the elders downward, and this matter is handed over to the Ministry of Rites to draw up and send it to me for decision. ”

All the beggar gang disciples knelt down happily, in fact, to be honest, they didn't contribute much in this rebellion, but after all, Fang Chen was once the leader of the beggar gang, and he was somewhat favored. ”

"Jiulian Mountain Sect Leader Bai Yingjie stepped forward to stop the seal."

Bai Yingjie was outstanding, but before Fang Chen could be rewarded, Bai Yingjie knelt down and bowed: "The grass people are also used to Yijie Mountain, and they are not willing to be officials in the court, and they hope to return to Jiulian Mountain." ”

Fang Chen saw that Bai Yingjie had made up his mind, and it was not easy to force him. After thinking about it, he said: "Since this is the case, I will seal Jiulian Mountain as the first mountain in the world, and Jiulian Sect as the first religion in the world, give 10,000 taels of gold and silver, and expand Jiulian Mountain." ”

Bai Yingjie arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen." Looking at this brother back then, sitting high on the dragon chair, and still not forgetting the old feelings, Bai Yingjie was sincerely happy in his heart.

"Yang Hongbin, you have done many miraculous feats for me, you are my right-hand man, I have specially named you the generalissimo of the town, the official worships the right product, and commands the soldiers and horses of the world. In addition, he was crowned as a great teacher, commanded all government affairs, and had the right to be cheap. The faces of the ministers showed envy, such a seal is tantamount to treating him as a regent, under one person, above ten thousand.

"Thank you, Lord Long." Yang Hongbin was quite excited in his heart, he had a discerning eye, and when Fang Chen was in trouble, he decided that he would definitely get ahead, so he gave full support and finally had today's achievements. You can also make a name for yourself.

The next one is Xu Hu.

Xu Hu stepped forward to listen to the seal. In this quelling of the rebellion, Xu Hu also made great contributions. However, in this rebellion, there are still remnants of stubborn confrontation with the imperial court, and I have decided to appoint you as the general of Dingguo, and the official will worship Yipin, command 300,000 troops and horses, sweep away the remnants, and return the people to a stable living environment. ”

"Yes." Xu Hu happily took the order and left.

"General Jia Shen loyally protected the lord, swore to follow, guarded the last checkpoint, won time for me to achieve a decisive victory, and made you the commander of the nine gates of Kyoto, and the official worshiped from Yipin, commanding 100,000 troops and horses in Kyoto. He was also crowned as the commander of the forbidden army and was responsible for the security of the palace. ”

General Jia was promoted to three levels in a row, naturally he was grateful, and it was very important to be an official and stand on the right team, if he had a hot head at that time and participated in the rebels, he might have been in a different place at this moment, how could he have today's glory.

The ceremony lasted all day. All the ministers were rewarded, and of course the biggest beneficiaries were those who had made meritorious contributions to the rebellion. After the reward, there is also a cumbersome etiquette.

After finishing these, when I returned to the harem, it was already the beginning of the day.

"Your Majesty, why is there no queen for today's canonization ceremony?" The eunuch beside him asked.

Fang Chen sighed: "My four wives, each of them is my heart, and I love them very much, but there is only one queen, I don't know who to seal, so I have to give up first." ”

"The emperor is reasonable, but according to the rules, there must be a queen."

"Alright, alright. I'll leave this on hold and talk about it later. As soon as he mentioned this, Fang Chen's heart was annoyed.

"Then does the emperor now think about which palace he wants to go to and which lady he will meet?"

Fang Chen said in embarrassment: "Grab a lot." ”

The eunuch, who had a quick eye, made four lots and waited for the emperor.

The emperor grabbed a lot, unfolded it and saw that it was Liu Xiaoman.

"Okay, let's go to Xiao Man." Today is a good day for the emperor, but because of Liu Xiaoman's special status, he is not only happy, but also has a touch of sadness.

But when Fang Chen approached Liu Xiaoman's palace, he found that the main hall was empty.

"Xiao Man, where are you?" Fang Chen anxiously searched for Xiao Man's figure.

I heard the door of the main hall creak open, and Liu Xiaoman walked in.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is here."

Fang Chen walked forward quickly and hugged Liu Xiaoman into his arms: "Xiaoman, where have you been, I am very worried." ”

Liu Xiaoman blushed and did not speak.

Fang Chen was feeling strange, and there was a coquettish laughter at the door: "It seems that the emperor still prefers Xiao Man." ”

What's going on? Fang Chen was a little confused.

Cen Ruoxi spoke first: "A few of us were still betting just now on which palace the emperor will stay in tonight, hey, it seems that the emperor is still biased." ”

Fang Chen gently exerted force, and a gentle force gathered several people around Fang Chen. "Lest you say I'm biased, I've decided to sleep with the five of us tonight."

The four women blushed with shame, and the rest of the group retreated to the outside of the hall to wait.
