Chapter 101: After the Establishment
Liu Xunduan sat on the throne of the Xuanshu Hall and watched Huang Xie read the edict at the bottom of the steps.
"I inherited the holy thread of the first emperor, won the Fengzong Zhou, trembling, no slackness, I heard that the holy monarch will be established, to inherit the ancestral temple, to build a very thousand squares. The noble Xu family, the daughter of Xu Guanghan, the captain of the school, inherited the Ming order in the past, pious and fed, gentle and graceful, elegant and dignified, it is advisable to build a long autumn to serve the temple. It is to recount the ancestors, not to replace the old life, so that the envoy and the prime minister give the queen's seal. Fukun De Shangrou, the woman's way of inheriting the aunt, the gift of Chongsheng, the righteousness of Dun Mantis, is Eli in Yongzhen, cloning the Tangji, the mother of the world, the hidden Yin Sect, giving the world a man, the second level of people; Three elders, filial piety, and Litian people are three-level; There are no names among the people who want to occupy the first level; Widows, widows, loneliness, loneliness, poverty, and poverty who cannot survive on their own, people are five!! Huang Xie said.
After reading this edict, he announced to the world that Xu Pingjun officially became the queen of the Han Empire, and at the same time announced that Jiaofang Hall had its own master. And the whole process of establishing the queen took only a few hours to complete, and before, Liu Xun's great-great-great-grandfather Emperor Xiaojing was more quickly established - the front foot ascended the throne, and the back foot established the Bo family as the queen.
Emperor Hui married Empress Xuanping, and the same was true.
The same is true when the first emperor married Empress Shangguan.
Speaking of which, since the Han Dynasty, it was still after the Xiaowu Emperor Liu Cheli was established, and the time and procedures spent were more and more complicated.
Hundreds of huge fire plates in front of Weiyang Palace, after a while, were already burning, above the palace wall. Thousands of torches have been burning all night.
All the bureaucrats of the Jiuqing Yamen with more than 600 stone were lined up in several neat queues, and each of them gathered together quietly under the leadership of the chiefs of the various yamen.
These people alone are in the hundreds.
But these bureaucrats who could make their heads tremble by stomping their feet in the past are as small and ordinary as a drop of water falling into the sea.
The bright firelight illuminates the entire Weiyang Palace like daylight.
Magnificent and extravagant carriages from all directions of Chang'an, surrounded by the guards and servants, drove to Beique.
Flag after flag fluttered high on the roof of the carriage. A prince of thousands or even thousands of households, Shi Shiran walked down from the carriage.
Today, since the establishment of the Han Dynasty, all the princes and nobles and old ministers who still exist, no matter where their feudal kingdoms are, no matter where they are, have come to Chang'an and will make a pilgrimage to the Son of Heaven today.
Some people are bored, secretly counting the cars of those formerly noble and incomparably noble.
And then he found out about this fact.
Chi
The longer the princes are sealed, the more they seem to be together. Like Gaozu heroes, they arrived almost at the same time, the Pingyang Hou family, as the vanguard, was the first to arrive, and then dozens of marquis such as Ruyin, Guangyan, Guangping, Qingyang, Beiping, and Quzhou arrived almost at the same time.
This fully shows that the heroes of Gaozu have been united today.
At least, on the surface.
Most of the princes and ministers after Taizong are relatives or returnees, and there are very few who really rely on military merits for the princes.
And these people are almost all in twos and threes, arriving intermittently one after another, and the descendants of Gaozu heroes are tightly together, and there is a world of difference.
If someone thinks about it, they are quickly relieved. To this day, every family has already passed down to the fourth or even fifth and sixth generations.
These nobles were born in wealthy families, and grew up in the hands of women, except for a few chatting with a few people, the rest really do not know joy, let alone sorrow, except for cockfighting, lackeys and women, there is no other specialty.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
If they don't hug the thighs of the deep Son of Heaven and the prime minister tightly, they will lose their feudal kingdoms and titles sooner or later! This is not unfounded! Gaozu divided more than 100 meritorious heroes, although when today's son ascended the throne, he ordered all the countries to be restored, but now in just three months, there are still less than half of those who still maintain the title and title!
The rest were like big waves sweeping sand, and they were deposed as commoners by the emperors, prime ministers and court captains of the past dynasties, and even some of them were involved in various rebellions without knowing whether they were alive or dead, and even the incense was cut off.
In addition to the meritorious societies such as Liuhou and Qu Wei, who can be remembered by the sons of heaven in the past dynasties, the rest, once they lose their titles, they will immediately become passers-by.
Most of the heroes after Taizong are the third and fourth generations, and they also have such a crisis.
Moreover, most of these people do not have a political future, so they will naturally not be grouped, so as not to be considered by the Son of Heaven as wishful thinking and alienated by the Son of Heaven.
After the princes arrived, the originally empty Beique Palace Gate was immediately congested.
Since the Han Xing, there have been seven generations of emperors, and there are nearly seven or eight hundred princes before and after, and in addition to about one-third of them who have been eliminated, there are at least two or three hundred marquis in power.
These princes, each of them has retainers, servants, guards, and cronies, no matter how shabby a liege is, there will be more than ten or twenty people around him to fill the scene.
The wealthy and noble are like a family and a big business, and the carriage in front of the palace with this generation of Pingyang Hou Cao Yu has reached more than 10, and there are hundreds of guards, retainers, diners, and servants accompanying them. It fully shows people what it means to be a big dog!
And the sons and heirs of the princes and kings were not willing to be left behind, and the carriages were extremely gorgeous and extravagant, decorated with rare and exotic objects from Shu County to Qilu, from China to foreign countries.
The last to arrive at the downstairs of Beique City was a relative, However, the indulgence of the princely class in the luxurious life of drunkenness and gold was an irreversible process.
It is simply impossible for the princes, who were born with a golden key in their mouths, to understand what frugality is!
Besides, it doesn't seem like I'm going to have that plan! Judging from everyone's observation of the Son of Heaven, it seems that today's son deliberately indulged the extravagant comparison of the princes.
Some time ago, some people even heard that the Son of Heaven once said to Tingwei Bingji, who went to report the extravagance and waste of the princes, and became more and more unrestrained: If the law is not forbidden, it will not be corrected, and the law will not be violated, and the Tingwei should not interfere!
But the son of heaven of the Liu family has been best at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger for generations.
Gaozu Liu Bang pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, and the whale swallowed the whole world.
Taizong Liu Heng pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger. Let all the veterans and ministers hit the street, and Zhou Bo almost died in the Tingwei prison.
Emperor Xiaojing is not bad, before ascending the throne, he was beaten by Zhang Shizhi, Zhao Juan and others, and he looked convinced, and immediately calculated the general account after ascending the throne......
Emperor Xiaowu is even more wise and martial, after the pro-government, the ministers and people of the world can only bow down in front of him.
Today, young is young, but, judging from his various performances and political actions before and after his accession to the throne, this is not a good stubble!
"It's clear!" Xu Guanghan looked up at the sky, and then straightened his clothes and made final preparations for the Great Chaoyi.
The Han family system, the great court ceremony, the Pingming (about 5 o'clock in the morning) to administer the ceremony, led to the second entrance to the palace gate. Civil and military officials, noble ministers, will begin to enter the palace according to their ranks.
In the palace, there will be Chen trains, foot guards, and guards. From the palace gate to the Xuanmu Palace, countless military flags will be set up along the way to show the majesty of the Son of Heaven.
When they arrive in front of the Xuanshu Palace, they will be divided into different sequences according to the civil and military affairs, and they will enter the palace under the guidance of the ceremonial officials.
The whole process will last an hour or more, and the next pilgrimage will last all day, except for the evening feast, the participating officials have little time to rest, which is a huge test of the bladder and stomach and the state of health.
The gates of the Beique Palace suddenly opened, and one by one the confessors dressed in silk clothes had already lined up and walked out of the palace gate.
The Great Pilgrimage Ceremony of the First Year of the Beginning has finally begun.
