Chapter 257: Gathering Together
There are royal families from nine countries who came to the Ming Kingdom this time, and nearly 40 royal family members attended the wedding of the Ming Emperor, among which the most eye-catching is the Queen of England.
Although on May 2, the British royal family added a new member, Princess Charlotte, which made the UK lively for a while, but the queen still hopes to have a good relationship with the Ming royal family and bring joy to the people of Australia.
Moreover, at that time, the Ming royal family also sent greetings and gifts, and at that time, I wanted to give Princess Charlotte two longevity locks of gold and jade, but because British regulations prohibit the royal family from receiving valuable gifts, it was changed to a set of Hanfu jacket skirt and skirt and a dodo doll.
Queen Elizabeth of England was accompanied by her husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and his two daughters, Princess Beatrice, the eldest daughter of the Duke of York, and Princess Eugenie, the eldest daughter of the Duke of York.
Prince Charles' family couldn't come because of Charlotte's birth, but they also sent a gift of lavender sachets from the Liberty department store in London.
The ceremony to welcome the Queen of England is the same as the ceremony to welcome other members of the royal family, by the Han King Zhu Daliang and the Qing King Zhu Jun are at the airport to meet and hold a welcome ceremony, and then go to Chang'an City Xingqing Palace to stay, which has never been seen in the history of the opening of the Ming Dynasty.
The plane landed slowly, and the honor guard of the Ming Kingdom was ready.
The Queen of England was the first to step out of the plane and wave down, followed by Prince Philip, followed by the rest of the royal family.
The Ming Kingdom's brocade guards and honor guards lined up on the red carpet to welcome the queen's arrival, while firing 21 gun salutes. King Han and King Kyung personally greeted here.
After that, the family boarded two cars and went to Xingqing Palace to stay, and foreign monarchs or state leaders stayed in the Ming Palace, which has never been seen in the history of the opening of the Ming Dynasty.
The car drove to the main gate of Xingqing Palace and stopped, and the queen got out of the car, only to see the palace gate open the middle gate and spread the red carpet. Zhu Wei, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, wore the regular clothes of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom. Wearing the crown of wings, stand here to greet you.
The interpreter said to the queen: "The tradition of the Ming Kingdom is that only the emperor can walk through the middle gate, and today I opened the middle gate for you, which is the highest courtesy." The queen nodded, smiling, and stepped forward.
Zhu Wei shook hands with the Queen of England and other members of the royal family in turn, and said with a smile: "Welcome Your Majesty." ”
The queen smiled: "Thank you for everything you have prepared for us, the British royal family is willing to be your friend forever." ”
Then, Zhu Wei took a group photo with the queen and other members of the royal family in front of the door, and outside the red line opposite the palace, there were already reporters lined up. There were hundreds of them. The two sides will take a group photo here.
The Queen, the Prince, and the members of the royal family then sign the guest book, and then enter the designated palace for a short rest, and when all the royal family members have arrived, a welcome ceremony will be held.
Soon, it didn't take long for the royal family to gather.
In the Xingqing Hall of Xingqing Palace, the welcoming ceremony was officially held, and dozens of royal family members from nine royal families participated in the ceremony.
These include Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, the queen's husband Prince Henrik, Crown Prince Frederick, and Princess Mary.

The emperor also had to get married. After participating in the welcome ceremony, they were accompanied by the royal family members of the Ming Kingdom, including the Empress Dowager Li Yun, the Fu King Zhu Junhong, the Han King Zhu Daliang, the Qing King Zhu Junzheng, the Jinan County King Zhu Junwu, the eldest son of the king Zhu Shengqi, the eldest princess of Dong'an Zhu Yushan and others, all had to accompany the royal family members of various countries. All of a sudden, it became busier.
You must know that these more than 40 dignitaries brought a lot of entourage, and the Queen of England alone brought a hundred entourage. More than 500 people came into Xingqing Palace at once, and the palace became very lively all of a sudden, but in terms of the capacity of Xingqing Palace, another 5,000 people could live.
This is the first time that the members of the royal family have come to the Ming Kingdom, and they were deeply shocked when they came to the palace.
Especially when I saw the animals in Xingqing Palace, I didn't like it very much, and I didn't expect to raise koalas, chinchillas, red pandas and other rare animals in the palace.
There are many children in the royal family, including 14-year-old Dong'an Princess Zhu Yushan of the Ming Kingdom, 3-year-old Princess Estela of the Swedish royal family, 9-year-old Princess Leonor of the Spanish royal family, and 12-year-old Ingrid of the Norwegian royal family. Princess Alexandra, 11-year-old Seville. Prince Manus, Japan's 14-year-old Prince Aikonai, and 9-year-old Prince Hirohito.
They liked the animals when they saw them, but in order to protect these little royal members, they could only allow them to touch them with the help of the staff. There can be no deeper moves.
Even the 21-year-old Prince Kakonai touched the pets affectionately.
The members of the royal family were surprised that Xingqing Palace was so big, and they heard that there was also a Daming Palace in Taiji Palace, which was much larger than Xingqing Palace.
The main thing is that there are many treasures and works of art inside, and the royal family also wants to see them, of course, these two days are definitely not possible.
In order to entertain the VIPs, a Western-style dinner and dance party was held in Xingqing Palace in the evening, and not only the royal family members participated in the ball, but also many heads of state of the Pacific Rim countries.
Although Zhang Yanran's family is also very rich, it must be a family that is not prosperous, and before meeting Zhu Wei, the industry has always been facing a huge crisis, and it is not a big family at all.
But as soon as Emperor Zhu Wei's identity was revealed, Zhang Yanran jumped into the upper class, no, it should be said that it was the top upper class.
If Emperor Zhu Wei is the most handsome king in the world today, then Zhang Yanran is also one of the most beautiful queens in the world. The appearance of two people is like a natural pair, and the ground makes a pair.
Zhu Wei and Zhang Yanran shuttled and tried to take care of every guest, so that they did not feel left out, and made a lot of heart-warming actions. It has won the unanimous appreciation of the royal family members of various countries.
On May 9th, the wedding day came, and four media from Mingguo, including Imperial Television EBC, Dongdu Wireless OBS, Yingzhou Broadcasting Company ytv, and Daming Broadcasting Company MBS, as well as print and network media, as well as media from all over the world, including Huaxia CCTV, were recording the wedding moments throughout the process.
Especially Xunteng, at the same time, it was broadcast live in Huaxia, because the Ming royal family is also very marketable in China, many Ming fans are full of expectations for this wedding.
Many girls are about to cry because of the wedding of Prince Charming in their dreams.
In the eyes of reporters, these things are full of ancient atmosphere and rich traditional colors.
The ceremonial department is furnished according to the previous liturgy. Wild geese and gifts were prepared on His Majesty Dan, and the inner officials and eunuchs displayed the queen's halogen book and vehicles outside the Chengtian Gate.
The goose has always appeared in the form of a bride price in Chinese history, and the goose is still used in Koreans for marriage. This is also a continuation of the Chinese tradition.
The content of the order: "Zhang Yanran, the granddaughter of Zhang Shichao, is hereby registered as the queen, and the secretary and others are ordered to hold the festival and present the treasure, and to welcome the ceremony." The chief and deputy envoys took the book and the treasure seal and placed it in the court, and when they went to the queen's residence, they took out the book, the book, and the treasure seal at the door and put them on the table. The ceremonial officer entered first, and the officiant came out to meet him in court clothes.
