287. 287. Enthronement

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the enthronement ceremony of Princess Wuyun.

The Zhou State is a semi-nomadic country, so the succession ceremony of the emperors of the past dynasties is the sacrificial ceremony, that is, the successor ascends the high sacrificial platform, first by the Ministry of Rites to read the holy decree of the previous emperor, and then the successor burns incense and prays, and gets the approval and blessing of God, and the enthronement ceremony is completed.

At this time, the emperor and queen of Zhou, as well as the envoys of various countries, stood on the sacrificial platform, while the harem concubines and civil and military officials were on both sides of the stone steps according to their ranks.

This is the first time Qingyun has seen the Empress of Zhou, the biological mother of Princess Wuyun.

The face is beautiful, the eyebrows are delicate and picturesque, the skin is as white as jade, and there is an unhealthy sickly color, but it has an elegant and noble temperament.

According to Wuyun, the queen is the daughter of a famous nobleman, and she is a childhood sweetheart with Emperor Zhou, and the two naturally have a deep relationship.

It's a pity that one day in the fourth month of being pregnant with the dark cloud brother, he accidentally fell while walking in the garden and caused a miscarriage, and the queen suffered a hemorrhage and injured the root, and since then she has been sick on the couch again, and no one has appeared in front of her today, and today she came to participate in the enthronement ceremony regardless of her weak body, which shows that the queen really cares about the dark clouds.

And Emperor Zhou loves Wuyun very much, not only because Wuyun is talented and talented, but also because he has a deep relationship with the queen and his wife.

The Queen Mother was seriously ill, so she did not come to attend the ceremony.

Clear eyes swept over the German king Tubuxin, Prime Minister Tang Hesi, the general Shuolun and the descendants of the three of them, and the most obvious fell on the general's sister-in-law Melasu, the heroic face, the straight nose bridge, the tight lips, a royal blue brocade robe lined the whole person Yushu in the wind, but there was a trace of imperceptible resentment and panic in the deep pupils, looking at it lightly, her face was as calm as water, and her eyes were clear and gloomy, so that people couldn't see what she was thinking.

Mo Xuan and Chu Yunyi stood beside her on the left and right, one evil maniac, one arrogant and one graceful, and the three of them were as awe-inspiring as immortals.

"Princess Clouds Arrives at ......"

As Emperor Zhou's personal eunuch shouted, I saw Princess Wuyun, who was wearing a Ming Yellow Dragon robe and a crown on her head, coming slowly, and then stepped on the nine hundred and ninety-nine heavenly steps step by step.

Looking at the graceful light cloud on the opposite side, Emperor Zhou looked at the Wuyun princess who was already standing in front of him, and there was a trace of pride and relief in his eyes.

Although the dark clouds are not as smart and decisive as Princess Jiayi's ice and snow, they are also outstanding, and he can rest assured that the country is handed over to the dark clouds.

The most important thing is that Princess Jiayi has always attached great importance to love and righteousness, as long as Wuyun can permanently maintain the friendship with Princess Jiayi, I believe that no one dares to covet the throne of Wuyun, and even with the support of Princess Jiayi and the Jin State behind her, the Zhou State will be able to carry forward and prosper in the hands of Wuyun.

Emperor Zhou glanced at Chamuhag, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Chamuhag immediately raised his voice and said, "Princess Wuyun listens to the order!" ”

"Erchen is here!" Princess Wuyun knelt in front of the shrine with a solemn expression.

In addition to the envoys of various countries, the harem concubines and civil and military ministers also knelt on the ground in unison.

Unfolded a volume of Ming Huang Shengzhi in his hand, Chamu Hag read it out loudly: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: I have been on the throne for more than 30 years, it is really heaven and earth, the blessing of the sect, not to the cause of Liangde, now I am in the dragon body and peace, for the country's long-term plan, then it is said that the eldest princess Wuyun, Wuyun benevolence and filial piety, Shen Xiao bowed, will be able to overcome the unification, with the dark cloud to succeed me on the throne, that is, the emperor's throne, the whole world celebrates, the whole country enjoys, Qin this!" ”

"The retainers take the order!"

Receiving the holy decree and the heirloom jade seal from Chamuhag with both hands, Princess Wuyun stood up, looked down and shouted in unison, 'Long live my emperor, long live, long live!' The beautiful faces were solemn and solemn, and they exuded a natural imperial atmosphere.

After so many years of step-by-step, at this moment she finally stood on the peak.

Subconsciously looked sideways at the side, except for the personal palace maid Qing Getai, there was no one.

With the vast blue sky and sun above her head, and the vast rivers and mountains and the people who surrendered to her beneath her feet, the man was not by her side at this sacred moment.

The man with whom she wanted to share the victory and glory was now in unknown danger in order to eradicate the hidden danger that threatened her safety.

There was a trace of loneliness and emotion between Princess Wuyun's eyebrows and eyes.

"Please the emperor, the queen mother, the emperor burns incense." After Chamuhag finished speaking, he handed over the incense to the three of them in turn.

The three of them knelt reverently in front of the altar, and after three prostrations, they were about to insert the incense* into the altar, when the incense in the hands of the three people suddenly went out one after another, and at this time there was not even a trace of wind.

Seeing this scene, the faces of Chamuhag and Qintian Prison Supervisor Zhengge Le Tu, who were retreating to the side, were as white as snow in an instant, and they must know that every time there is a sacrificial ceremony, it is very unlucky if this kind of thing happens.

Prime Minister Tang Hesi frowned, and a trace of bad premonition inexplicably floated in his heart.

There was no expression on the resolute face of the great general Shuo Lun, but the bottom of his eyes was as deep as the sea.

King Tubuxin looked at the new emperor's dark clouds with an undisguised worry on his face.

Melasu lowered his head slightly, and a hint of relief crossed his eyes, if Princess Wuyun could not inherit the throne, then he would not have to marry Princess Wuyun.

And the Emperor Taishang's face had become cold and gloomy, and his eyes were as cold as frost and snow when he looked at Chamuhag: "What's going on with this incense?" ”

"Back to ...... Return to the Emperor...... This...... Wechen also ...... I don't know how...... What's going on......"

Chamuhag was so frightened that he knelt heavily on the ground, trembling uncontrollably, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he took the incense in the hands of the three people with trembling hands and put it on the candle flame, but unfortunately no matter how he lit it, the three incense sticks could not be lit, so shocked that his face was pale and bloodless, and he said in a trembling voice: "Emperor Taishang, this, this seems to be a bad omen!" ”

Ominous?!

The envoys of various countries had different expressions, but everyone in Zhou was terrified.

A similar situation occurred twice in the history of the Zhou State.

One was the second emperor's canonization of the queen ceremony, the queen lit incense many times and did not burn, the second emperor insisted on canonizing it not long after, first several counties and counties had an epidemic, and then bandits around the country made trouble, almost endangering the Zhou country, Qin Tian calculated that the queen was a demon star reincarnation, with her, the Zhou State will perish, although the second emperor loved the queen deeply, but for the sake of the country, he had to endure the pain to execute it, and the situation calmed down.

Another time is the fifth crown prince enthronement ceremony before the emperor, the prince also did not burn incense, and then the originally clear sky suddenly dark clouds, several days of pouring rain flooded many counties, resulting in heavy casualties among the people of those counties, and then Qin Tianjian calculated, the prince is not the royal blood at all, after killing the prince less than half an hour, the rain passed and the sky was clear.

The Emperor Taishang naturally remembered those two incidents, but he didn't believe that his beloved daughter would be an ominous person, so he turned his eyes and looked directly at the Qintian Prison Supervisor Zheng Ge Ri Letu, and Ge Ri Letu immediately pinched his fingers and calculated.

Everyone whispered, there is no doubt that the new emperor is the blood of the emperor, and now that this situation is happening, could it be that the new emperor is the reincarnation of the demon star?

The queen mother looked indifferent and calm, as if she didn't hear everyone's whispers, but just held her beloved daughter's hand under the cover of her wide sleeves, silently giving support and comfort.

Giving the queen mother a reassuring smile, the dark cloud stared coldly at Chaganhag, thinking of the message that Qing'er had given her, and a sneer crossed the corner of her lips.

"This adult is making too much of a fuss, isn't he?"

Finally, he couldn't bear to see the dark clouds trapped in this ridiculous frame, and Qingyun suddenly said lightly: "The Emperor Taishang asked your lord what is the matter with this incense, but your lord is talking about some bad omen, isn't it not the answer you asked?" Besides, even though it's the height of summer, if you don't keep it properly, the incense will get damp, don't you say? ”

Chamuhag's expression was stunned, and he opened his mouth to say something, but who knew that Qingyun said again: "Emperor Taishang, yesterday this palace went to visit Master Puyin to thank him for saving his life last time, before leaving, Master Puyin gave the palace some incense developed by himself with thousands of years of sandalwood, and the palace thought about the sisterhood with the new emperor for many years, so today I brought half of it to the new emperor, and it happened that the incense prepared by this adult was damp, so let this adult use the incense sent by Master Puyin to light it again to see how the situation is." ”

After Qingyun finished speaking, Mo Xuan had already taken out a large handful of incense and handed it to Hude, who immediately took the incense, and then handed it to Chamuhag, who took it with trepidation, put his trembling hands on the candle flame, and soon the incense was lit, and it exuded a refreshing fragrance, and until the three of them finished bowing and inserted the incense* into the sacrificial shrine, it was not extinguished.

Everyone, especially Tang Hesi, breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the incense was really damp, and at the same time shocked.

The meaning of Princess Jiayi's words is clearly to tell everyone that if anyone dares to offend the new emperor, Princess Jiayi and the Jin Kingdom will not sit idly by.

An unintended light quickly flashed across Tubuxin's eyes, and no one noticed it except for the three of them.

The Empress Dowager and Dark Cloud nodded gratefully to Qingyun.

And the Emperor Taishang was both grateful and glad in his heart, it seemed that it was a wise move for him to let Wuyun befriend Princess Jiayi back then, and Princess Jiayi really valued love and righteousness.

"If it weren't for Princess Jiayi who happened to bring incense, people who don't know the way of the road would probably say that the new emperor is an ominous person." Shuo Lun didn't hesitate.

When the words fell, everyone had different expressions, and Chaganhag's face was even more pale, and he took out a silk handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and then walked to the golden tripod in front of the altar, which contained the holy water brought from the holy pool.

"Please take a step forward and accept the baptism of holy water."

In his left hand, he held a flawless white jade bowl filled with holy water, and in his right hand he held a bamboo branch dipped in holy water and sprinkled it on the dark clouds kneeling in front of the altar, and recited the blessing in his mouth.

Next, she only had to wait for the clouds to bow three more times and the enthronement ceremony was completed, but just as she bowed for the second time, there was a sudden rumbling sound.
