Chapter 278: Crowning and Crowning (II)
It's not good for people to live too clearly, even if you see through some things, there is no need to say it, Niu Jinda is obviously living in the belly of a dog at this age.
Li Su was very embarrassed, and there was a kind of shame that someone suddenly took off his pants while walking on the road.
The pale and unconvincing explanation was very pale, and the faces of the veterans present became a little weird, and the father Li Daozheng had an expression of wanting to kill his son alive, and was standing in the crowd hesitating whether to sacrifice the magic weapon.
After a long time, Cheng Yanjin suddenly sneered, and then the veterans around him all laughed.
"On the big day of being crowned, I still do mixed things, fortunately, today is just a few of us in the army, if it is Kong Yingda who comes to be crowned, Wei Zheng is a few sour and rotten old people, today you have to pick a layer of skin, fasting is not good fasting, and you eat a mouth full of oil......"
Niu Jinda looked up at the sky and said, "The auspicious time is coming, quickly wipe your mouth, it is unlucky to miss the hour." β
Li Su hurriedly wiped his mouth, smiled at the generals, and then looked at his nose and nose, and knelt on the futon in the middle of the courtyard.
For today's crown ceremony, Niu Jinda was dressed very formally, in a dark dress, with a white jade buckle belt around his waist, and two goldfish bags hanging on the jade belt.
There are many rules for the crown ceremony, which are very strict, and today Li Su is crowned with a serious Han ceremony, and the etiquette is becoming more and more cumbersome.
Li Daozheng and Li Su are the hosts, Cheng Yanjin and other generals will be the guests of the ceremony, Niu Jinda is the main guest, and the main guest is the person who presides over the crown.
At today's crown ceremony, the former village school teacher Mr. Guo Yu was also prominently listed, and he played the role of a praiser. Li Su had studied in the village school for a few days, and it stands to reason that the person who was crowned should be the teacher of the village school, Guo Yu, after all, the two are considered to be a teacher-student relationship, but Li Shimin's holy decree designated Niu Jinda. Guo Yu had no choice but to become a praiser.
The so-called "praiser" is the person who acts as the master of ceremonies on the side, and by the way, he gives Zhengbin a hand, holding a plate and handing over the scarf, crown scarf, beam crown and so on. Although Zhengbin has been reduced to a praiser, Guo Yu is excited today, and his face is red all the time.
It is normal to be a guest of honor, and it is a great honor for Guo Yu, a fallen teacher, to be able to sit down with Li Su and confirm this teacher-student relationship, and to be able to watch the ceremony with many founding veterans.
The day is nearly noon, and the auspicious time is coming.
Niu Jinda looked up at the sky, and then straightened his clothes. After the crown was upright, he suddenly said in a deep voice: ""Li" said: 'The crown is the beginning of the ceremony', and he is dressed and respected, as if people are afraid of it. Jingyang Li Suzhi, seventeen years old, young and intelligent. Gifted and beautiful, well-equipped with adult qualifications. The "Li" said: "The husband ceremony begins with the crown, which is more important than the funeral sacrifice." Respect for the court, and in the shooting township, the general purpose of this ceremony. Therefore, to be crowned, to admire the way of the sages, to become a gentleman. Through the economy, know the etiquette, know the etiquette and righteousness, and then crown it, Si Qi Mei. β
After saying the esoteric ancient text, Li Su didn't understand a word, so he had to open his cute and blank eyes and look at Niu Jinda sluggishly.
After Niu Jinda finished speaking, the praiser Guo Yu next to him hurriedly stepped forward with a wooden pallet, and a crown flute was placed on the tray, the so-called "crown flute" is actually a hairpin that fixes the crown scarf.
Niu Jinda took the crown flute held by Guo Yu, personally inserted it in the bun for Li Su, and read melodiously in his mouth: "The auspicious moon and the day, the first plus yuan service, abandon the young ambition, Shun Er Chengde, Shou Kao Weiqi, to introduce Bifu." β
This is a very profound sentence that must be explained, as if it were a priest's blessing.
Li Su knelt down, got up and entered the east room, took off his dress, and came out wearing only his underwear.
Add it after OnePlus.
This time, Niu Jinda put on a veil for Li Su, and said: "Jiyue Lingchen, Nai Shen Erfu, Jiner Weiyi, Shushun Erde, Meishou Yongnian, enjoy Hu Fu." β
Well, the second blessing.
Li Su knelt down again, got up and entered the east room, and took off the hat he had just put on.
Sanjia, this time it is not the same as the crown ceremony of ordinary people, the ordinary people's Sanjia is to officially put on a hat for the crownee, but Niu Jinda gave Li Su a Liang crown, and changed Li Su into a crimson official robe and leather soap boots, and hung a silverfish bag around his waist.
Because Li Su was a courtier before receiving the crown, Jingyang County and the supervisor of the Firearms Bureau, with the fifth rank, must be different from the people, so he wears a beam crown, according to the system, and the beam crown can be equipped with two beams. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the rites and music are prosperous, but in the Zhenguan period is a little chaotic, whether it is a wedding or a funeral or a crown, some use Zhou rites, some use Han rites, just because the world is full of family valves, Longyou and Guanzhong many powerful families are very knowledgeable, and the saying about "rites" is also a matter of opinion, so it has caused a scene of chaos into a pot of porridge now, in short, the people who use it are happy.
After the three additions, Niu Jinda's blessing technique was not finished, and then the last sentence was added: "With the righteousness of the year, with the order of the month, the Xiangar is served, the brothers are there, and the virtue is to become a virtue, the astragalus is boundless, and the celebration of the sky." β
After the blessing, Li Su was full of blood and blue.
Then Li Su bowed to the main guest, his father, the praiser and the guests who watched the ceremony, and the praiser handed the wine cup, and Li Su bowed one by one to the south, south, north, and west.
After worshipping, Li Su's brain was dizzy for a while, he lost a lot today, I don't know how many times he has kowtowed, but he didn't dare to show his dissatisfaction, so many people stared at him, theoretically, any one of these people could tear him alive with both hands.
After all the worships have been prayed, the matter is not over.
After the crown, it is an adult, Li Su can be called a "weak crown" at this age, since he is an adult, he must have a table word, this table word also has rules, and he can't take it indiscriminately, if Li Su's virtue is to give himself a shameless table word such as "too handsome" and "flawless", I am afraid that even the face of the entire Tang Dynasty will be lost.
According to the rules, the table words are generally taken by the parents and elders, Li Daozheng is illiterate, and the responsibility for taking the table words naturally falls on Niu Jinda.
Niu Jinda stroked his long beard lightly, revealing a look of intransigence.
The famous generals here today seem to be vulgar, but in fact they are all familiar with poetry and books, proficient in Tao strategy, even if Cheng Yanjin is a famous general who can no longer be coarse, he must read two hours of military books in the study every day, a general who does not know the art of war, does not know Tao strategy, only knows how to fight and rush, generally does not live long. Even if he didn't die on the battlefield, he would inevitably be beheaded after returning from defeat, Cheng Biting Jin lived to this age without incident, and he could touch his daughter's buttocks on the street with his old face, obviously he still had some ability in learning, especially in the art of war.
After pondering for a long time, Niu Jinda stroked his beard and said slowly: "Li Su, you have been knighted as a county prince at a young age. The future is unlimited, it is inevitable for the court to take power in politics, the old man only hopes that you will be an official in the future, and do not go astray, as you just said, 'Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations'. Zi said: 'Politicians, righteousness. Zi Shuai is upright, who dares to be upright? The old man hopes that this word "positive" will run through your life, with a beginning and an end, don't disappoint your parents and neighbors, don't disappoint the king and the community, and don't disappoint the people of the world. Therefore, the old man will take the table word 'Zizheng' for you. β
"Zizheng ......," Li Su muttered twice. Looking up at Niu Jinda, Zhanyan smiled at him, and then bowed: "Li Zizheng thanked Uncle Niu for giving him the words." β
At this point, the crown is completed.
Only then did a cadre of military generals put away their solemn expressions, and stepped forward one by one to pat Li Su's shoulder, and the slap made a crackling sound. Li Su thanked everyone one by one with a bitter face, and looked back at his father, Li Daozheng's eyes were red, and he was wiping tears.
Niu Jinda also put away Yan SΓΉ's expression, and said with a smile: "The ceremony is complete." The old man was fortunate not to be dishonored. Zi Zhengxian nephew, what did you eat before the salute, your mouth was full of oil, and you didn't quickly serve it to your uncles and uncles. β
*************************************************************
Taiji Palace, Jingshu Palace.
Dongyang has been living in the palace for half a month, when the princess's mansion was rebuilt into a Taoist temple, Li Shimin called Dongyang back to the palace with a verbal order, saying that it was a temporary residence, but Li Shimin's original intention Dongyang was very clear.
Her father was still very opposed to her being with Li Su, so he simply put Dongyang under house arrest in Taiji Palace, and in order to break up the lovers, Li Shimin also worked hard.
Jingshu Hall is very close to the cold palace court, almost next to the court, the hall is inexplicably cold all the year round, Dongyang kneels on the warm seat of the side hall, listens to the cold wind outside the hall, and the wind faintly floats a real illusory cry.
Dongyang sat quietly in the side hall as usual, but his thoughts drifted somewhere.
Li Chunfeng walked in slowly from outside the hall, stood with his hands in his hands, and quietly looked at Dongyang.
After a long time, Dongyang suddenly came back to his senses, and when he saw Li Chunfeng looking at her with a smile, Dongyang's face turned red, and he stepped forward and bowed down.
"Apprentice Xuanhui to meet Master."
"No courtesy......" Li Chunfeng smiled, looked at Dongyang and said, "What were you thinking just now?" β
Dongyang Qiao's face became more and more red, and he lowered his head and said: "Think about the past, think about the future, and think about the Tao and nature." β
Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "Since the Dao is natural, where did you and I come from in the past and future?" Nature is free, nature is free, Xuanhui, your fate is not broken, the Tao is uncertain, you only see the past and the future in your eyes, but you do not see the present, but violate the word 'natural'. β
Dongyang lowered his head and thought about it, and said with a shy expression: "Yes, I know that I am wrong." β
Li Chunfeng shook his head and said: "No, you are not wrong, birth and entry into the world are both cultivation, and if you have not completed your cultivation in the world, but you are forced to be born, how can you not be confused?" β
The smile on his face became more and more profound, Li Chunfeng took out a piece of paper from his arms, and said with a smile: "The Taoist classics are all in the book, and there are not many things that the teacher can teach you, but your confusion at the moment, the teacher can help you solve it." β
Dongyang curiously took the white paper in Li Chunfeng's hand, slowly unfolded it, and the familiar and elegant flying white body on the paper came into view, and Dongyang couldn't help but read it.
"Last year, in this door today, the peach blossoms on the human face were red. The face of the person does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze......"
After the song was finished, Dongyang's beautiful eyes gradually turned red, and tears swirled in his eyes, but he couldn't bear it for a long time.
"Master......"
Li Chunfeng sighed: "Obviously she is a talented woman, but in this life, she has no fate as a husband and wife. A poem is full of sorrow and sorrow, you and him...... It's a shame. β
Dongyang's tears finally couldn't help but fall.
"The apprentice's life is hard, and the Daojun also bears him, and I beg the master to explain the apprentice."
Li Chunfeng said with a smile: "Daojun also has compassion, why not give in and wait for the changes in the future?" β
************************************************************
Temple of Manna.
Li Shimin looked at the page in his hand expressionlessly, and there was no movement for a long time.
"'The face of the person does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze'...... is still a peerless poet, still my Tang Junjie, Li Su, Li Su, but why did you choose Dongyang? Why do you want to deceive me? β
Li Shimin's expression was complicated, and he looked up to the sky and sighed.
A eunuch stood in the hall, staring down at his toes, letting Li Shimin sigh gloomily, but he was silent as if he was deaf.
"Today, Li Su is crowned, and all the generals will go to watch the ceremony, and the crown ceremony can be smooth?" Li Shimin asked lightly.
The eunuch lowered his head and said: "A qiΔ shun lΓ¬, Niu Jungong took the table word for Li Su, called 'Zizheng', which is derived from the "Analects", "Politician, Zhengye." Zi Shuai is upright, who dares to be upright? ββ
Li Shimin nodded slowly: "Jinda understands my thoughts, and the words are good, I hope that Li Su will be as good as the words intend to end, and don't disappoint me......"
After a pause, Li Shimin suddenly said: "Now that he has been crowned and is already an adult, has Li Su's father ever married him?" β
"Back to His Majesty, Li Su's father Li Daozheng twice set up a marriage for Li Su, but both times he was mis......taken by Li Su."
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and anger appeared on his face: "Both times were wrong, obviously it was not easy to identify Dongyang, which lady did the old father of the Li family decide?" β
"The distant niece of Xu Jingzong, the young superintendent of the Firearms Bureau, Jingyang Xu."
Li Shimin muttered: "Xu Jingzong...... When Empress Wende died, Xu Jingzong laughed at the funeral for no reason, which shows that he has misconduct, lost morality, and is unbearable......
Shaking his head, Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "I really don't know how the old father of the Li family thinks about it, it's just that, since he has made a marriage with the Xu family, it is destined fate, pass the decree, Jingyang Xu's marriage Li Su, the Xu's seven products, choose a good day and an auspicious day to get married, and give Li Mansion a hundred taels of gold, a thousand silk horses, and allow Li Su to ride a horse in Chang'an City, and talk about my congratulatory gifts." β
The eunuch received the decree and respectfully retreated.
Li Shimin looked up at the temple beam, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
In this way, it can be regarded as completely breaking his relationship with Dongyang, right?
As the emperor, Li Shimin will never allow anyone to jump out of this "rule", never! (To be continued......)
