Section 214 Pro-ploughing
"How is the preparation of the emperor's personal ploughing? Is the date set? "Jiang Mi has to ask everything after all. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Si Chen nodded and said: "The date is set on the fifth day of the third month, the Queen Mother can rest assured!" ”
"It should be held on the beginning ......of spring," Jiang Mi sighed.
"Long life without borders......" heard the flower satin scream again, and in a blink of an eye, it aroused her smile again.
"After ploughing and sacrificing the first farmer, it's time to enter the main Qianyang Palace! Get in early, so that those who don't die will have less to worry about! She squinted at a dancing candle flame in the west.
Out of Cining Palace, followed his Dingluan and Yinfeng left and right.
Dingluan said: "Your Majesty, is it fun to plough the ceremony?" "Dingluan is only thirteen years old, and he has a simple temperament.
Yinfeng is two years older than her, quite a bit of He Tang's demeanor, and said with a slight smile: "You know how to play!" ”
Si Chen said seriously: "It's fun! ”
"It's as fun as acting, and you'll have to keep your eyes open when the time comes!"
"Alas, where are you going, Your Majesty?" Dingluan found that Si Chen was taking the wrong route.
Yin Feng glanced at her, took her hand and said, "Naturally, I went to see Lord Lian, you don't want to be strange and strange......"
After Ling Tong settled Dong'er to sleep, he felt bored and couldn't sleep, so he made clothes.
When Si Chen came, Qinglu at the door saw it, Si Chen signaled her to be quiet, Qinglu smiled and nodded, and tiptoed out.
Ling Tong under the lamp was thoughtful, looking at the situation during the day today, Murong Yuhuan must be the best choice as Empress Sichen, his heart was sour, and the clothes he picked up were put down again.
"Is this for me?" Ling Tong was clearly a royal blue flying dragon brocade robe in his hand, which was the most suitable color for Si Chen that Yanzi had said, Ling Tong was shocked, and when he turned around, he saw Si Chen, who was smiling, pacing in.
It was supposed to be a courtesy, but somehow I didn't want to stand up.
"Hands that can weave winds must be able to make clothes!" As soon as these words came out, Ling Tong himself was also shocked, was he so angry? His face suddenly burned, and he hurriedly got up and saluted in order to cover up.
Si Chen took her hands.
Bright and warm dark eyes looked at her closely, and said nothing.
The atmosphere was awkward and ambiguous, making Tong want to retract his hot hand.
"I won't let go of your hand! Why don't you believe me? said that as long as you are the queen, you will not change! ”
It's too close, isn't it? The voice rumbled, filling the ears.
"I promised Dong'er, and Ming'er will send Chitu over!"
"Doesn't the emperor want to see the red rabbit every day? Why are you willing to give it away? ”
"Here, don't call ......," he said softly.
"Many years ago, you saved Chitu, and when the prince got married, he went to the palace to see the incense; I only glanced at you, and secretly vowed that in the future, I would exchange a crown for your rescue and adoption of the red rabbit! ”
Under the lamp, Ling Tong's eyes are like Hong, her cheeks are like the morning glow, her skin is brighter than snow, and before she knows it, the little girl who is enthusiastic and not afraid of hardships has become such a charming and bright girl!
Si Chen took her into his arms.
This embrace is so comfortable and fragrant, no wonder Dong'er wants to hug it back!
"Is this garment mine or not?" He asked.
Ling Tong nodded.
"I've never measured for Your Majesty, so let's give it a try?"
Si Chen let go of her and opened her hand to let her try it on for herself, although there was still a sleeve that was not on, but after putting it on, she found that it was very suitable! What's going on?! Ling Tong himself was speechless.
"Huh? Have you ever measured it? Si Chen's eyes flashed, and he smiled evilly.
An ambiguous aura suddenly filled the room.
"Nope!"
"If you laugh again, I won't do it for you!"
Si Chen carefully took off her clothes, folded them and placed them on the table, touching the tip of her nose with her index finger.
"There is a pro-ploughing ceremony at the beginning of next month, and then let's go to see the eunuchs race walnuts, and then it's your birthday, and there will be a lively begging festival in July, which will not make you feel bored......"
"It's not early, let's rest!" After saying that, he strode out of the room.
"That's right," he stopped abruptly at the door.
"Concubine Yi, is it your eldest sister?"
"Yes! How is she? My grandfather misses her day and night, and I don't know if I can ...... anymore," he said, and his voice choked up.
Si Chen turned around, looked at her red eyes and thought for a moment and said: "Ming'er, I asked Feng Xiao and Guo Lingqi to enter the palace, a concubine who was not favored by the emperor, and she has never given birth to an heir, and she has never been eye-catching, and it will not be a good ......thing if she disappears" He smiled slightly, and the momentum was as if it was a tsunami and landslide.
Ling Tong covered his mouth.
Would he dare to do such a thing? He's an emperor himself!
The Emperor's ploughing ceremony is scheduled for the fifth day of the third month.
As Si Chen said, it was actually a grand and interesting performance, with hundreds of people participating, starring the emperor, Hubu Shangshu and below, and Shuntianfu Yin.
The location is in the Xiannongtan, and the household steward selects those who are more consistent with the myths and legends from the famous teaching workshops in the capital, plays the gods of wind, thunder, clouds and rain, and gathers about 200 people from the vicinity to play the ploughman and peasant woman, the more simple the better!
At the beginning, two officials led the oxen to the field, the other two supported the plow, and the four wore hats, wore coarse cloth clothes, and went into battle barefoot with trouser legs, striving to be realistic and making a hard-working appearance.
This kind of errand is difficult but also pleasing to the eye, there are always people who voluntarily sign up, however, higher-level adults generally do not take the initiative to participate, after all, acting is the work of excellent actors, and they can't ignore face.
Other participating farmers carried a variety of farm tools, including dung buckets, net buckets, bamboo baskets, hoes, ploughs, etc.
After that, the Emperor will be on the field.
Dressed in a blue kudzu cloth robe, he held a plow with a lacquered gold carving dragon and a whip in his left hand, and had to walk back and forth in the field three times with the support of two old men, even if he had completed the task of ploughing.
Si Chen did not act like the emperor, but ploughed the ground three times, and the spectators saw that the emperor was still undeceived, and they knew in their hearts that they had to work hard to do it.
After ploughing, Si Chen did not wipe his sweat, so he sat under the wild goose umbrella and watched the officials at all levels led by the head of the household department Shangshu concoct the same method.
Shuntianfu Yin is the official of the parents of the capital, with a special identity, and his mission is to "sow seeds".
Sow the seeds first, then cover the soil, then water.
Subsequently, the peasants played by the teachers immediately presented the five grains to the emperor, indicating that His Majesty's hard work had yielded a bumper harvest! The world has a bumper harvest!
The hundreds of officials and people present shouted long live to him, and the atmosphere was extremely warm!
The last part, eat!
The household officials will cook the polished rice in the big wooden barrel and serve it, and the emperor will take the lead in eating the first night, and then the hundred officials and the people will each have a bowl, the bowl of rice is naturally the best rice selected, the aroma is fragrant and crystal white, and hundreds of people eat together, so not spectacular!
At this point, the "pro-farming" ceremony ended. (To be continued.) )
