Chapter 673: Enthronement Ceremony
Jia Ke and Aunt Zhou's mother and son hugged their heads and cried, and in the end, Qin Keqing on the side came to dissuade them, and Jia Ke put away his grief and personally helped Aunt Zhou to the palace.
After that, Jia Ke didn't get into the sedan car, so he followed the royal chariot on foot and came all the way to Cining Palace.
When he arrived at the gate of Cining Palace, Jia Ke once again helped Aunt Zhou into Cining Palace surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs.
Aunt Zhou walked all the way and looked at it, only to feel that this Cining Palace was simply golden and brilliant, unprecedented, even in her dreams, she never thought that there was such a prosperous place in the world.
Jia Ke and Aunt Zhou entered the main hall of Cining Palace, and then settled Aunt Zhou, and the mother and son talked for a long time, and Jia Ke said goodbye and left.
After Aunt Zhou left, Aunt Zhou still felt that she was living in a dream, and the palace she lived in now was no different from those sky palaces in her dreams.
And Xia Mai, who followed him into the palace next to Aunt Zhou, was very excited.
Just now, when Jia Ke was talking to Aunt Zhou, Xia Mai went out and gathered these palace maids and eunuchs together to train for a while.
Those palace maids and eunuchs lowered their eyebrows one by one, which made Xia Mai, who had been serving people, feel that it was so beautiful.
He was embarrassed to say anything when Jia Ke was there just now, but now that Jia Ke was gone, Xia Mai immediately became active.
"Auntie, will you be the Queen Mother in the future?"
Aunt Zhou was a little embarrassed when she heard Xia Mai's words, but she thought that her biological son was already the emperor of the dynasty, and it didn't matter if she was called the queen mother.
So Aunt Zhou nodded reservedly.
Xia Mai saw it next to him, and immediately rejoiced, "This time we can really be on an equal footing with the other side, Caixia's girl has nostrils facing the sky every time she sees me, and now they are living in the palace with our uncle, see how she will show off in the future." ”
Aunt Zhou kept nodding when she heard this, and now he thinks that these people in the family can enter the palace because she gave birth to a good son, and she is now living in Cining Palace, and she is on an equal footing with Mrs. Wang, so naturally there is no need to be as cautious as before.
"When I see them in the future, I don't have to endure them like before, this is also our eldest brother's place, and it's time for them to look at our faces."
Xia Mai listened to Aunt Zhou's instructions, and nodded beside her like a chicken pecking rice.
After Aunt Zhou finished Xia Mai, she thought about it again, now that Jia Zheng lives in Kangning Palace and she is in Cining Palace, this is not good to say.
So Aunt Zhou said to Xia Mai on the side: "Remind me from tomorrow that I have to go to the old man and the old lady every day to say goodbye." ”
Xia Mai heard this and hurriedly agreed.
A day later, the entire capital knew that Jia Ke was already wearing a yellow robe and had taken the elders of the family to the palace.
This time, the old and young people who were still thinking about the dynasty beat their chests one by one and howled.
And those civil and military ministers who followed Jia Ke's plan were indeed ecstatic, this time they can be regarded as the founding fathers of the country, and when their lord officially ascended the throne, these people will have a title.
Under the condition of maintaining order in the capital, the military aircraft is also in full swing to arrange the matter of ascending the throne.
Finally, under the calculation of the Daolu Division and the Qin Tianjian, the nine days were followed by the auspicious day of the zodiac.
So Sun Yan and the others reported the day to Jia Ke.
Jia Ke was quite satisfied after knowing it, this day was neither near nor far away, just enough to arrange, so he agreed to their performance.
On the morning of the ninth day, Jia Ke got up early and dressed neatly under the service of Li Deshan and other palace maids and eunuchs.
On this day, Jia Ke was not wearing an ordinary emperor's court dress, but a serious crown dress.
It is not easy to wear the crown dress, a person really can't wear it, this costume is mainly composed of a crown, a black robe, a silk dress, a white Luo belt, a yellow cover knee, a plain yarn in the single, a red carapace, etc. Legend has been around since the Yin Shang period, and although there have been slight changes in all dynasties since then, the general style has remained the same.
Then Jia Ke waited in the Qianqing Palace, and in the morning, Fan Kang, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came to the Qianqing Palace in person and invited Jia Ke to ascend the throne.
Then Jia Ke took the imperial chariot to the Zhonghe Hall in the Qianqing Palace, first went to the Zhonghe Hall to ascend to the seat, and officials at all levels saluted.
After the ceremony, the officials were in place, and Fan Kang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, once again asked for the emperor's throne. So Yi Weiren and others followed Jia Kelong to the Imperial Taihe Palace.
Jia Ke was in the Taihe Palace, ascended to the throne, that is, the emperor's throne, and then the civil and military officials knelt three times and bowed nine times. At this time, according to the regulations of the ceremony, the Zhonghe Shao music band played, and the bells and drums sounded on the noon gate.
Then the congratulatory expressions of the ministers also kept saluting, and all the etiquette of succession at this time was basically completed.
The next step was Jia Ke, as the emperor of Xinke, who issued an edict to the people of the world to ascend the throne.
First of all, Sun Yan, the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department, held out the edict, Fan Kang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, held the edict to the bottom of the steps, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites placed it in the cloud disk (a wooden pallet decorated with cloud patterns).
The civil and military officials were respectively from the Zhaode Gate and Zhendu Gate on both sides of the Taihe Gate with the edict out of the noon gate, put the edict in the Dragon Pavilion, and carried it to the Tiananmen Gate Tower to promulgate. Jia Ke returned to the Duanning Palace, the military aircraft department, and the foreman Sun Yan took all the civil and military forces to return the "Emperor's Treasure" and store it in the interior.
By now, Jia Ke can be regarded as a rightful emperor.
After that, Jia Ke sat on the main hall of the Taihe Hall and once again accepted the worship of civil and military officials.
After Jia Ke let the civil and military officers calm down, he sat on the throne and said to the people below: "When I first ascended to the great treasure, the country name was "Yan", and the year name was "Kangshun". ”
Next, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs worshiped again, and Jia Ke then made a good envoy to Li Deshan, who had been following him beside him
Li Deshan immediately took out a holy decree from the imperial case, raised it above his head respectfully, came to the imperial case to unfold the holy decree, and announced to the bottom: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: My grandmother, I have worked hard to support the Jia family, and I have not slackened for decades. Today, I ascend to the great treasure, and should be raised by the world, canonized as the empress dowager, and raised in Ningshou Palace.
After Li Deshan announced the holy decree, naturally a little eunuch came to the imperial steps, took the holy decree with both hands, and then retreated out of the Taihe Hall and passed the decree to Jia Mu in the Ningshou Palace in the harem.
In the next Li Deshan once again held out the holy decree, one was to canonize Jia Zheng as the emperor, after Li Deshan read it, it was still the little eunuch who held the holy decree, went out of the Taihe Palace, and passed the decree to the Kangning Palace.
Just when everyone thought it was over, they didn't expect Li Deshan to hold out a holy decree again.
His Royal Highness's civil and military officials looked at the scene and thought that Jia Ke was Jia Zheng's wife, Mrs. Wang.
That knows, as soon as Li Deshan opened his mouth to read the holy decree, everyone was stunned, it turned out that this holy decree did not mention Mrs. Wang at all, but canonized Jia Ke's biological mother Zhou as the Queen Mother, and gave her residence in Cining Palace for the elderly.
Jia Ke sat on the throne of the Taihe Palace, listening to the holy decree conveyed below, thinking of the oath he had made when he was young, he must let Aunt Zhou be above Mrs. Wang.
Today, Jia Ke ascended the throne and sat in the palace to rule Huaxia. can also realize this wish, from now on, not to mention letting Mrs. Wang see Aunt Zhou's gift, at least let them be equal in the true sense.
The ministers of civil and military affairs at the bottom dared to ask about these royal affairs, so they kept silent one by one, so this holy decree was also taken out by the little eunuch and sent to Cining Palace.
Today's enthronement ceremony here is completely over, and Jia Ke can be justifiably called a lonely widow from now on.
After the Great Dynasty, Jia Ke returned to the Qianqing Palace in the imperial chariot.
At this time, Qin Keqing took all of Jia Ke's concubines and had been kneeling here for a long time.
Jia Ke got off the imperial chariot and did not go over to help Qin Keqing as usual, but nodded to her, and then went straight into the Qianqing Palace and sat on the throne.
Qin Keqing hurriedly took Jia Ke's women into the Qianqing Palace, and knelt on the ground at the foot of the imperial stairs to congratulate Jia Ke.
Jia Ke sat on the top and did not let them flat, but once again let Li Deshan make a decree.
Then Li Deshan took out a copy of even, stood there and read it again: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Qin's Keqing is young and tactful, long and virtuous, and he should follow the scriptures of etiquette and history." Inherit the beauty of the relatives, ascend to the rank of the back court, noble but not ashamed, humble and benevolent. Bow down with the way, and catch with him. The four virtues have both, and the six palaces consult. The law is already in place, and he is full of capital and admiration, and he is the first to make money. Tribune as the Queen. Chin this. ”
Qin Keqing knelt down, and now she was full of smiles, and she couldn't hide it anymore, she replied in a trembling voice: "Concubine Qin Keqing thanks Lord Longen, long live, long live, long live." ”
Then there was a eunuch who sent the holy decree to Qin Keqing's hands, and a eunuch next to him sent the queen's golden seal and golden book.
The most important of them is this treasure seal, in the future in the palace, Qin Keqing will use it to dominate the six palaces.
Next is the holy decree of canonizing the concubine, this concubine, Jia Ke only sealed two people, namely: Shi Xiangyun and Xue Baochai.
Everyone already knows this, because among Jia Ke's wives and concubines, these two have the highest status, and they are both relatives of Jia Ke, and everyone has nothing to say if they have to be named concubines.
At the same time, Jia Ke sealed Shi Xiangyun to Zhongcui Palace, and Xue Baochai sealed to Chengqian Palace.
Below is the title of the fourth concubine, which is the focus of Jia Ke's women.
The other wives and concubines all looked at Jia Ke with blank eyes.
And Jia Ke still sat there expressionlessly, nodding at Li Deshan again.
It was Li Deshan who hurriedly took out the holy decree again and announced: Chuncao, Qiaolian, Lanxiang, and You Sanjie were divided into four concubines: virtuous, good, Shu, and De.
and divided them into the four palaces of Yanxi, Jingren, Tihe, and Yikun respectively.
It was the other women accepted by Jia Ke, Shao Yuan, Liu Xuan, Li Lu, Li Li, and Ailian, all of whom were given concubines by Jia Ke. can be regarded as worthy of them, and followed Jia Ke early.
Then Jia Ke passed on two more holy decrees, namely dividing his eldest son Jia Zhi as the king of Chu, his second son Jia Mao as the king of Wu, and his daughter Jia Xuan as the princess of Anle.
Hearing these two semicolons, Qin Keqing was naturally a little unhappy, she thought that Jia Ke would make Jia Zhi the crown prince, but she didn't expect that she would just crown the king of Chu.
Qiaolian didn't have Qin Keqing's loss, and she was naturally very happy to know that her son was named King Wu.
