Since New Year's Day, the whole palace has been busy, although it is not necessary for Zhu Biao to be busy, but it can also be felt.

Zhu Biao looked at the sky, it was still covered by clouds, but the people from Qin Tianjian said, "It will definitely be sunny on the day of the ceremony!" ”

Of course, Zhu Biao doesn't think this is like what people like them say, they have always been guys who are eight points sure to say five points, and they are estimated to be forced by Zhu Yuanzhang to have no choice.

Time passes, tomorrow morning is the ceremony, Zhu Biao changed into a bright yellow four-clawed dragon robe early, this is the crown prince's dress, and Zhu Yuanzhang specially asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites to prepare.

It is estimated that many people can't sleep this night!

Zhu Biao was also in high spirits and was not ready to sleep at all, the four little girls plus Liu Jin all looked at Zhu Biao with tears in their eyes, this is what they rely on all their lives, and they are all in one body.

Zhu Biao stood in the courtyard, watching the sky turn from dark to bright, and the fiery red sun finally showed his face.

With the shaking in the palace, Zhang Yuan Quanxu came to greet him, Zhu Biao glanced at the people behind him, and walked out of the palace with a smile surrounded by a group of people, Gong Weisi prepared a guard of honor, the soldiers were lined up outside the gate of the Wu Dynasty, both sides of the road were filled with colorful flags, and five carriages were prepared in front of the Fengtian Hall for the emperor and empress and other royal personnel who were ready to participate in the ceremony.

Zhu Biao's carriage was behind the emperor and empress, and the mighty carriage marched to the Purple Mountain, and when the auspicious time came, Zhu Yuanzhang walked alone to the altar that had been set up long ago.

Zhu Biao stood beside Ma and watched Zhu Yuanzhang's figure walk forward step by step, the figure was not majestic but stepped on everyone's hearts like a god.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the altar that symbolizes the heaven and earth, the sacrifice of the community is the top priority, generally "set the altar for the community", the altar is placed in the east, west, south, north, and middle five directions respectively to place the "green, white, red, black, yellow" five colors of soil cover, that is, the so-called five-color soil.

The eastern Yimu is green, the western heptyl metal is white, the southern Lihuo is red, the northern Kwai water is black, and the central Wutu is yellow". It symbolizes the unification of the country, the whole world, and the king's land!

The figure in the five-clawed golden dragon robe knelt in front of the altar, praying to the heavens, praying for the wind and rain to be smooth, praying for the earth, praying for a bumper harvest on the earth, sacrificing to the ancestors, and praying for the eternal survival of the ancestors!

Then Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and slowly turned to look at everyone, and the crowd all over the mountains knelt down at the same time and shouted long live!

There is no one between heaven and earth who can stand in front of him!

Zhu Yuanzhang solemnly asked everyone to get up, and then put on a new dragon robe at the request of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

This is the completion of the sacrifice to the heavens, heaven and earth have attributed the authority of the world to the emperor, down to all beings, up to ghosts and gods, everything can only be decided by the emperor!

Zhu Yuanzhang pulled the queen to step on the dragon chariot, which was driven by six snow-white horses in front of the dragon chariot, and the body was inlaid with gold, silver and jade, gems and pearls; The body is also carved with a dragon and phoenix motif.

Zhu Yuanzhang led the civil and military ministers back to the palace, along the way there were soldiers on both sides of the road holding colorful flags, and at noon outside the gate two ceremonial staff held commendations into the palace, at this time the palace was full of lights, and the red lanterns were hung high.

Although it was the middle of the night in winter, the officials still put on their court clothes early and stood outside the noon gate to wait, and the ceremonial officials entered the palace to report and prepare.

At the time of the third watch, the officials below the prime minister entered the palace, and the new emperor Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the emperor's throne wearing a dragon robe.

Zhu Yuanzhang stamped the emperor's seal on the edict of enthronement! After the edict of the Ministry of Rites, he took it out of the Taihe Hall and put it in the dragon court carried by someone outside the noon gate.

Then, under the escort of the drum music honor guard and the civil and military officials, go out of the Taihe Gate, the Noon Gate, and the Duanmen to the outer city tower, and then hold the edict to the yellow case of the Xuanzhao Tower. The summoner took the stage and stood facing west to read the edict.

"Fengtian carries the emperor and the edict says: I am the king of China, since the end of the Song Dynasty, the real person of the Mandate of Heaven is in the desert, and he enters China as the lord of the world, and passes it on to his descendants, for more than 100 years, and this fortune is also over. The territory of the sea and the territory of the sea are divided by heroes. I am the right common people, the lotus is favored by the heavens, and the spirit of the ancestors is taken advantage of the autumn of chasing the deer, and the heroes are left and right. Where the two Huai, two Zhejiang, Jiangdong, Jiangxi, Hu, Hunan, Han, Chu, Fujian, Guangzhou, Shandong and the southwest counties of the barbarians, everywhere is full of people, repeatedly ordered the generals and generals to fight their might, the four sides are settled, and the people are in peace. ”

"Today, the ministers of civil and military affairs are persuaded to advance with their words, respect me as the emperor, and take Qianli as the master."

"Following the invitation of the people, on the fourth day of the first month of the second year of Wu, the heaven and earth were sacrificed to the sun of Zhongshan, that is, the emperor was located in the southern suburbs. There must be the name of the world, called Daming, Jianyuan Hongwu. Gong Yi Taimiao, posthumously respect the four generations of Kaoyu as the emperor and queen. The Daisha Daiji was established in the Kyoto Division. Canonized Ma as the queen, and established the prince as the crown prince. ”

"Announce to the world, and make the salt hear."

Because it is high up and very sacred, it sounds like a heavenly sound. At this time, the civil and military officials in the south of Jinshui Bridge under the city tower and those who were invited to watch the ceremony lined up in turn according to the order of official positions, knelt facing the north, and bowed three times and nine bows to thank the emperor.

After the edict was read, the edict was rolled up by the edict officer, placed in a wooden plate shaped like a cloud, and came to the golden phoenix platform in the middle of the stomping mouth of the castle tower.

Put the edict title in the mouth of the wood carved golden phoenix, and then hang the golden phoenix with a yellow velvet rope, stomp in the middle of the outer city tower, and slowly descend to express the order of the emperor of the Son of Heaven, and the golden phoenix rides the clouds and descends from the sky to the world.

At this time, there were already officials of the Ministry of Rites dragging the cloud disk to kneel below, and the edict in Jin Feng's mouth happened to fall into the cloud disk.

At this point, the ceremonial officer waved his whip to signal everyone to be silent. Under the guidance of the ceremonial personnel, the hundred officials lined up to enter, standing in the salute position of their own station, from the entry of the hundred officials to the station regular music has not stopped, just like the current large-scale activities when the VIP enters the venue to play some music is the same, worship to bow down, the ceremonial officer also has to perform the "worship dance", while shouting "long live my emperor, long live", and to shout three times in a row.

This is the completion of the emperor's enthronement ceremony!

After that, the first court meeting of the new dynasty will begin, and the queen will lead the princes to retreat, and Zhu Biao is no exception.

The crown prince does not need to go to court without the emperor's order, and there is no place for him below, after all, he is not a civil and military general, nor is he in the ranks of nobles.

As soon as he exited the Great Fengtian Palace, he was stopped by a eunuch, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the Holy Lord asked you to wait here."

Empress Ma glanced at Zhu Biao, "Your father is probably going to announce your East Palace vassals, wait here." ”
