The Great Dynasty Meeting is one of the most solemn ceremonies in the Great Song Dynasty today, three times a year - Yuan Zheng, May New Year, and Winter Solstice.

Among them, the Yuanzheng Dynasty will be the most grand, and the other two will come and go.

A large court meeting costs tens of thousands of yuan, and the court can't afford it, and it is often suspended because of national funerals, weather changes, rain and snow, wars, emperors' diseases, and ceremonial conflicts with suburbs.

The starting place of the Great Dynasty Meeting is the main hall of the Imperial Palace, Daqing Hall.

Su You got up very early today, and the first seven minutes of the Great Dynasty will be in place, and the first two and a half minutes of the Great Dynasty will officially begin.

Etiquette is cumbersome and there is no room for error.

At that time, Lu Yijian was because he misunderstood the etiquette at the court meeting, and he got up without a bow, and there were rumors inside and outside that "the sky seized its soul", and he soon got out of class.

On the right, it is the case of Zhongshu Shilang Zhufang Town.

The officials stood still, silent.

In the main hall, the sound of jingling bells suddenly sounded, and it was a group of bells. The small bell makes for pleasant music, and the big bell is bell, bell, bell...... It rang out continuously and steadily.

At the same time, in the south of Bianjing City, the same six distant bells rang out, corresponding to the bells in the hall.

Only then did the ministers discover that on the right side of the Danqi incense case in the Daqing Palace, there was an extra mouthful of splendid and exquisite machinery as high as people.

The mechanical shell is brass forging, the base is a golden grain ornament, on which are four turtle dragons, on the back of the turtle dragon, are four brass coiled dragon pillars, the bottom of the pillar is the shape of the turtle foot, stepping on the back of the turtle dragon, symbolizing the support of the heaven and earth.

On top of it is the golden roof, and below there is a door, when the time is announced, the door is opened, and you can see two small bronze men in it taking turns to strike a bell there.

But if you really look closely, you will find that the little bronze man is just doing movements, and the real bell comes from the bell seat below.

The gorgeous large grandfather clock aroused the curiosity of the ministers, but the auspicious time had finally arrived, and no one dared to speak nonsense.

Zhao Ji's imperial chariot has arrived, just behind the imperial throne.

Today he first went to worship the Queen Mother's birthday, and then drove out of the inner palace and went to the west to descend.

Fu Baolang is blessed with treasures, and there are secretaries and supervisors below, and the imperial history is known below, and the clan surname and foreign defense envoys are in place.

They represent the emperor's team, and are responsible for the handover of seals and documents during ceremonies, the supervision of ceremonial order, and the protection of the emperor.

The servant version is strict, reminding to be quiet and reset.

Everyone straightens up and waits.

After a while, the servants waited for everyone to finish tidying up, and they entered the service, and reported that the ministers outside the world were ready.

The palace sounded the whip, and Taile ordered to ring the bell of the yellow bell, and the five bells on the right should be at the same time.

The curtain was rolled up, and the inner attendant was ordered to ask for a fan, and the fan was closed, escorting Zhao Ji's imperial opinion out of the west.

Although Su You has now regarded himself as a complete Song person, and his daily life and behavior are no different from those of the ancients, the Great Dynasty Meeting still makes Su You feel like he is making a movie.

And he is one of the group performers.

The imperial public opinion went out to the west, and the ministers were in ambush.

It's hard to be an emperor.
