Chapter 325: Coming-of-age ceremony

June passed, and on the 22nd of July, it was the birthday of the Holy One who was sixteen years old.

For the men of Dayi, the age of sixteen is a node, because from here, they are no longer a child and need to take on many responsibilities and obligations.

Therefore, at the beginning of June, the Ministry of Rites discussed that a coming-of-age ceremony should be held for the saint, after all, now that the emperor is no longer there, among all the elders, there are only a few left, so this coming-of-age ceremony is also relatively difficult to do.

It's just that in July, news came from the Taihu Lake area that there had been a flood that had not been encountered for decades.

After all, after two consecutive victories, the imperial court received tribute and compensation, the treasury was filled a lot, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and commerce flourished in various places, so there was a lot of tax silver.

Jiangnan was cleared twice, and several major families were directly ended, and after many years of good intentions, all the black and white ones were confiscated, so the court was very rich.

There are no concubines in the harem, and the most saints are dragon robes, and the daily casual clothes cost a lot, and the others. That's not a penny or two.

After the death of the first emperor and concubines, the huge private house left behind naturally became the private treasury of the saint, so the saint was very rich, and the treasury was very rich.

Yan Lingyuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, is very researched about waterlogging, and he and Wan Qichen, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, took people to Taihu Lake, especially after the previous large sum of silver, only one or two splashes out, although the saint is rich, but he is not allowed to let others take it like this.

Naturally, it is necessary to investigate clearly, the name used is naturally very official, what is the situation of the people, the Taihu Lake embankment needs to be reinforced, etc., as for how many turns in the hearts of the hundred officials, as long as it is not in front of the saint, the saint can turn a blind eye.

This coming-of-age ceremony can't be too sloppy, otherwise, it will be sad for others to think that Dayi has no money.

After the final discussion, Yan Wushuang decided to do a small office in Liuli Pavilion, and the invited were naturally the important ministers of the court, the major princes, and the six Shangshu, which were naturally indispensable.

In fact, it is quite a lot.

"Okay, so far, there are so many people, we don't need to make those fictitious, don't want singing, dancing and singing, I'll prepare a surprise for you, and then all parties will send gifts, and everyone will have a lively meal, how about it?"

Song and dance performance or something, ten days of time is too rushed, Yan Wushuang said that there is no such energy, people are simple, we just need to be simple.

The saint is indispensable, sitting on the soft couch, the whole person is staggered, without the slightest etiquette of the saint: "Sister decides, besides, I have participated in a lot of messy banquets, all in all, in the end, it is a feeling, tired to death."

You have to sit upright on it the whole time, and you have to take care of the face of the saint, and you can't stagger, and you can't eat too much...... There are too many things to die.

There are so many people, his position is the most obvious, so many people are staring, if it weren't for the fact that no one else could succeed to the throne, the rich and noble king was actually very suitable for him, and it was very cool without so many things.

Now this situation is just like irritation.

Especially looking at the neat stacks on the table, the corners of Shengshang's mouth couldn't stop twitching.

Yan Wushuang chuckled and shook his head, his eyes were doting: "You, you are all Your Majesty's people, and you are still so restless, if this is the case, there will be a speech official to give you advice in the future."

"Don't be afraid, if it weren't for the fact that those officials still have some role, they really want to be withdrawn, they don't do anything all day long, and there are still a lot of bad things, as if I ate an extra bite of food and ate the treasury poor."

This time it's really, from the time when I went to the court two days ago, I didn't have time to eat breakfast, and finally when I was in the court, I blocked it with my sleeve and secretly ate pastries and was discovered by the officials.

Yan Wushuang rolled his eyes: "You ate pastries when you were in the court, and you didn't let people say it, do you think it's possible?" As Your Majesty, leading by example is the most basic. ”

This kind of thing, only this bear child can do it, if the first emperor is still there, I am afraid that his ass will be sucked.

"But am I not hungry? I was a child, and it was normal for me to get hungry easily. Sheng Shangtian was shamelessly coquettish, and he didn't see Ah Jing who was stunned next to him.

Liu, Yuan was particularly intimate to block Ah Jing, and he was a gentleman: "Ah Jing, children can't learn these bad things, read books obediently."

Ah Jing lowered his cute eyes slightly, and hummed softly, Liu Yuan rubbed his hair, and blocked him in front of him with great satisfaction, and then he was satisfied.

As for Ning Qing, who had already married a wife and was proud of the spring breeze, with a little comfort between his eyebrows, he threw the booklet in his hand to Liu Yuan.

"There's time to say that, and that's done." After speaking, Ning Qing looked at Yan Wushuang: "County Lord, Tu'er went to Sheng Wang's Mansion to see her aunt today, and her father sent a letter for her to send to her aunt."

"Uncle, what's the matter?" Yan Wushuang confirmed the list and asked Gonggong Wei to present it to the saint for sealing.

Ning Qing shook his head slightly: "I don't know, I don't think there should be anything else, by the way, will the full moon wine party be held?"

Seeing that the jade seal on the post was covered, Yan Wushuang put the post away, and handed the other copy to Gonggong Wei and asked him to arrange the matter.

"It will definitely be held, it's almost there, and after the coming-of-age ceremony, I will start to prepare to dress up, and the invitation should soon arrive in Jiangnan, as for the ones in the capital, they are all sent by close people, and the floods in Jiangnan have not passed, so it is not appropriate to do a big deal, so as not to fall into the mouth."

"When the time comes, I will also go over, but it is also my younger brother, and there are few brothers in the entire capital now." What he said was that he was sacred, brothers or something, most of them were locked up in the manor, and there were really few of them.

Slammed the table, and when everyone looked up, Shengshang stepped forward with a surprised face: "Sister, what is this called?" I can't be curious, and if there is no suitable one, I will give it a name. ”

Yan Wushuang laughed out loud: "The beauty you think, first of all, you have to be able to convince King Sheng, and thirdly, you must be able to convince Lord Wei Guogong, as well as the Prime Minister who has repeatedly suggested, this is enough for you to torture."

It's really difficult to talk about the name of his younger brother, King Sheng...... No, my father would love to use the best words in the world to be his name, but there are too many obstacles.

Wei Guogong is his father's teacher, and he is also an elder, the prime minister, and he feels that he is here to join in the fun, probably because the capital has been too calm recently, and he wants to find something.

Hearing so many big guys, the saint returned to his seat and sat down: "Then forget it, I just know what it's called."

Yan Wushuang sighed lightly, the students are afraid of the teacher, it is really a famous saying.

When the Holy Coming-of-age Ceremony was held, the people who could get the posts were all people with heads and faces in the capital, which was also a supreme honor.

I didn't get it, and I don't know what I said behind my back, but those words that can't be entered naturally can't be passed on.

In the end, it is a family banquet, although there are women, they are all close to people, the day of July, it is the hottest time in the capital, Shuangshuang prepared a moonlight silver high-waisted skirt for Yan Wushuang, and the outside is draped in a silk coat, which just shows her slender waist.

The skin is delicate, the makeup is light but the finishing touch, dusty and charming, appearing on a person, is extremely rare.

Zhan Ge is a matching moon silver pattern brocade robe, and the hairband binds half of the long hair, which is a little softer than the usual solemn and cold.

As soon as they came in, everyone felt that their eyes lit up, and they were reluctant to let go of such a match.

Although King Sheng did not have his wife and children by his side, he was very happy to see his daughter and son-in-law, and his whole face was much softer than the usual coldness.

Speaking of which, familiar people can find that after King Sheng had a child, the changes in his whole person were visible to the naked eye.

After saluting, Yan Wushuang and Zhan Ge sat down, and above them were Wei Guogong and his wife, and after saluting and greeting, they chatted.

When the saint arrived, the entire hall was already complete, not wearing a dragon robe, but a brocade dress with a dragon pattern on a black background, full of spirit, and the whole person looked different.

After everyone saluted, they sat down one after another, and this time the high platform where the saint sat was not high, so he didn't look lonely.

After the tea pastry came up, the whole Liuli Pavilion had a little more fireworks, compared to the estrangement at the usual banquet, this banquet was obviously liked by the saint.

"After the sixteenth birthday, Your Majesty will be an adult, and I am willing to do my best for Your Majesty, and then die. Under the leadership of His Majesty, I hope that my Dayi will be peaceful from all over the world, come from all directions to worship, and leave a name for eternity. ”

The Prime Minister, as the leader of the civil service, was the first to speak his mind, and if he was worried about His Majesty at the beginning, he already believed that he had been together for such a long time.

Even though His Majesty now has many aspects that need to be improved, he is indeed a qualified emperor, and the Dayi that has survived the crisis of life and death is about to shine with new light. And Your Majesty is the hope of all.

Wei Guogong came out of his seat, his expression was solemn, and he bowed down: "Your Majesty Shengming, I wish the horse leather shroud, may my Dayi be peaceful in all parts of the world, come from all directions to worship, and leave a name for eternity."

The others got up one after another, and for the first time, they were so united, even if it was only a few dozen people, but with the courage of a few hundred.

"Your Majesty Shengming, under the leadership of Your Majesty, my Dayi will eventually rise to the level of the four seas, and come from all directions to worship, under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's ministers."

It was the first time for the saint to see such a scene, compared to the anxiety of the first day of the enthronement ceremony, at this time, he was full of enthusiasm and ambition, got up and bent down and saluted back: "I will live up to the high expectations of all Aiqing."

The moment he lowered his head, a tear ran down the corner of his eye, and there was no trace......
