Entering the door of the main hall, Ji Kang glanced at it.

On the throne in the main hall is his father Ji Ming (Ji Yun), who wears the crown of Jiuhan.

The courtiers and envoys of the Yan Kingdom, divided into several rows, stood on both sides of the main hall, and bowed down to greet themselves.

On the left is a civil official headed by Xiang Guo Sumi, and on the right is a military general led by Changguo Jun Lejian.

Ji Kang bowed slightly to the courtiers of the Yan Kingdom on both sides to show his salute in return.

At this time, the vocal music in the hall became more solemn.

Ji Kang came to the center of the front of the hall, knelt down on his knees and said, "My son, Liaocheng Jun, meet my father." ”

According to the regulations of the Zhou Office, the prince of the state must summon the ministers to inquire without objection.

The establishment of Ji Kang as the crown prince is related to the future of Yan Kingdom, and it cannot be overstated. According to Ji Kang's previous life, this is the biggest politics of the country.

Ji Ming looked at the familiar civil and military officials in the hall, felt a lot of feelings in his heart, and slowly said to the ministers:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the widow wants to make the prince of Liaocheng as the prince of my Yan Kingdom, do you have any objections?"

Among the ministers, Yan Xiangsu took the lead in moving forward, bowed down and said: "King, the king of Liaocheng is noble and heroic, since he went to Liaodi, he has opened up thousands of miles of territory for my Yan country, and the ministers support the prince of Liaocheng. ”

Yaqing will Qu, and then Su Yu stood up: "Weichen seconded the proposal!" No objections. ”

All the ministers stood up together and said in unison: "The ministers seconded it!" No objections. ”

Ji Ming turned his head to look at the general.

Changguo Junle was the first to stand up, bowed down and said:

"There will be no objections to the end! Respectfully accept the order of my king, and I am willing to support the king of Liaocheng as the prince of my Yan country. ”

The general, Qing Qin, also stood up with the music, bowed down and said, "The minister seconded the proposal!" I am willing to support the king of Liaocheng as the prince of my Yan country. ”

The other generals also stood up together and said in unison: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" I am willing to support the king of Liaocheng as the prince of my Yan country. ”

Seeing that there was no objection, Ji Ming sat on the throne and laughed, and his heart was extremely happy.

Then, looking down at his youngest son kneeling at the foot of the imperial steps, he ordered the attendant: "Announce the edict!" ”

"No."

The order of the attendant of the Yan Kingdom, standing on the steps of the palace, facing Ji Kang, the courtiers and the envoys of various countries, raised his spirits and read the edict loudly: "...... Gongzi Kang, whose morality and intelligence are the best choice, is now the crown prince. Chinchi! ”

After the edict was read, Ji Kang bowed three more times to his father Ji Ming.

Immediately afterwards, the acolyte shouted again: "Crown." ”

Several attendants walked out slowly with a square plate, on which were placed the seven crowns, gold seals, gold books, swords and other things representing the identity of Prince Ji Kang.

In the elegant music, Yan Wang Ji Ming slowly stood up from the throne, walked down the royal steps, and came to Ji Kang's side.

He picked up the jade crown from a square plate with both hands and slowly put it on Ji Kang's head.

After Ji Kang finished dressing up, looking at the little son in front of him with an extraordinary bearing, Ji Ming's heart was even happier.

Ji Ming helped Ji Kang and said, "Wu'er, stand up quickly and follow your father to the top of the king's steps." ”

"Thank you, Father." Ji Kang stood up, slowly walked up the royal steps, and stood beside his father Ji Yun's royal table.

Yan Wang Ji Ming said to the ministers: "Ladies and gentlemen, you can visit the prince to set a great gift for the monarch and ministers!" ”

At this time, the civil and military officials in the court hall of Yan Kingdom knelt on the ground together, and said to Ji Kang in unison: "The ministers will meet the prince." ”

At this time, the palace music sounded solemnly again with the three kneeling and nine knocks of the ministers.

Ji Kang, who was standing on the imperial steps, looked at everything in front of him and felt extremely emotional.

I have been a human being in two lives, and I have never experienced such a scene!

After the ministers finished paying homage, Ji Kangqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart, cleared his throat, and said in a Langlang voice:

"Ladies and gentlemen, please get up."

"Prince Xie." All the ministers said in unison.

Then they all looked up at Ji Kang, and saw that the prince on the royal steps was generous and tall, and he was indeed the posture of a hero.

In the first year of King Yanxiao, the first day of November.

Yan Wang Ji Ming established Ji Kang as the prince of Yan and ordered the world.

According to the procedure of establishing a prince in Yan State, the most important thing is to accept the bowing of the courtiers and determine the status of the monarch and minister of both sides. The next step is to go to the Taimiao Temple to worship the ancestors and inform the previous kings.

According to the "Zhou Li", there are seven temples of the Son of Heaven, five temples of the princes, three temples of the doctor, and one temple of the scholars.

The Taimiao Temple is next to the Thistle Palace, very close.

After the ceremony in the main hall of the palace, Ji Kang came directly to the Taimiao with his father Ji Ming to worship the ancestors of the Yan Kingdom.

Ji Kang originally thought that it had been hundreds of years since the founding of the Yan Kingdom, and there must have been many relatives of the Ji family.

But after coming to the Taimiao, I found that the number of people was very small, not as many as I imagined.

Father Ji Ming saw the doubts in Ji Kang's heart, and explained to Ji Kang with sadness:

"Wu'er, my Yan royal family has also suffered a lot in the past few decades!"

Ji Kang suddenly understood, first sixty years ago, the "Chan Rang Incident" occurred in the Yan Kingdom during the Yan Wangxu period, and the Qi State took the opportunity to invade the Yan State and almost slaughtered the royal family surnamed Yan Guoji.

His great-grandfather, Yan Zhao Wang Ji, was restored, and after decades of hard work, the vitality of Yan finally recovered. But then there was the murder of the king by Gongsun of Xiangguo, and the Yan royal family suffered another catastrophe.

In front of the Taimiao, an old man with white hair and beard led his eldest brother Ji Xi and others to greet Ji Yun and Ji Kang.

Ji Yun said to Ji Kang: "Kang'er, according to the generation, this is your uncle, called Ji Ming, who is the one who takes care of my Yanguo Taimiao." ”

Ji Ming came to Ji Kang and looked at Ji Kang, the newly established prince of Yan Kingdom, with a look of joy and satisfaction.

In the Taimiao, it will be narrated according to the ancestors.

Ji Kang stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Ji Ming and said, "Visit my uncle." ”

Ji Ming looked at Ji Kang appreciatively and said, "The prince is really young and promising, and he will help my clan surnamed Ji more in the future." ”

Before, Ji Ming knew that among his royal clansmen, there was another figure like King Yan Zhao. In the past ten years in Liaodi, not only the people's livelihood and economic development have been very good, but also for Yan to open up thousands of miles of territory.

When I saw it today, after talking, I found that it was different, and I was more satisfied.

Ji Kang, like his father Ji Yun, knelt down in front of the spiritual throne of the previous kings of the Yan Kingdom.

It was as if his soul was exposed in front of many ancestors, and it was as if he saw many pairs of eyes looking at him.

Ji Kang looked at the tribute table, lined up with the spirit tablets of the ancestors of the Ji clan.

It's as if these spiritual tablets are all torturing their souls against themselves.

The top spirit is written "Zhao Gong Zheng", and the lower is the spiritual seat of the ancestors such as "Yan Hou Ke" and "Yan Hou Zhi", and the last one is the spiritual seat of Ji Kang's grandfather "Wucheng Wang Meat".

Ji Kang knew that in the future, his spiritual position would also be ranked on it and accept the sacrifices of future generations.

The ceremony proceeded quickly, and Ji Ming shouted loudly in front: "The ancestors and kings of the past dynasties are above, and a total of one hundred and sixty-eight people surnamed Ji of my Yan Kingdom are gathered here...... Today, my descendant Ji Kang was established as the prince of Yan Kingdom, which is a major event, and it is specially sacrificed. ”

Then he recited a gorgeous sacrificial text, lit it, and respectfully placed it on the divine case, which was to sue the ancestors.

Ji Kang was below, and he secretly prayed:

"The ancestors of the Ji family are on the throne in the past dynasties, and in this life I am the son of the Ji family of the Yan royal family. Now the Zhou room is weak, the people are not living, and my Ji family is in danger. I, Ji Kang, will fulfill the will of the previous kings, unify the world, and restore the honor of my Ji clan. ”

The incense in the temple was burning quietly, and the faint smoke was also shrouded in the spiritual seat, as if Ji Kang's prayer had also been infiltrated into the tablet.
