Standing in front of the bronze mirror, Liu Xun opened his hands and asked the maid to change into the brand-new clothes of the Son of Heaven that had just been sent from the Shaofu Inner Treasury.

According to the rules that Xiao He formulated for Liu Bang back then, the color of the clothes worn by the Son of Heaven in the spring, summer, autumn and winter court clubs of the Han Dynasty will change due to the changes of the four seasons. This is the so-called 'number of the law and the heavens and the earth, and winning people in the middle'.

However, even Liu Bang himself was unwilling to abide by this rule, and it was abolished after only one implementation.

For nearly 100 years since then, Liu's Tianzi has basically dressed as much as he likes.

Emperor Taizong Xiaowen was frugal by nature, and only wore silk, leather, and red belts during his lifetime, and only changed into gorgeous clothes of the Son of Heaven during the Great Dynasty Ceremony.

Well, it is the set of black-clothed crowns designed by Shusun Tong on the basis of the emperor's crown of the Qin Dynasty.

Jia Yi once persuaded Emperor Taizong Xiaowen to establish the system of the Son of Heaven's clothes and crowns, however, it was useless.

Even after Dong Zhongshu changed the world, the emperor of the Liu family did not change his robe policy.

To this day, the Liu family has not determined and stipulated what the emperor's clothes and crowns look like, like a crown, which can be worn by princes and princes.

And it is not much different from the crown of Emperor Lao Tzu - if there is really a difference, it may be that the Son of Heaven has twelve rows of beads, while the princes and princes have nine rows.

As for the clothes on the body, there are no taboos.

Basically, the emperor's regular clothes are basically the same as those of scholars.

Only the sacrificial clothes and court clothes will make a certain distinction in color and decoration. Therefore, in the early history of the Han Dynasty, there was often such a situation: the clothes of the rich dog families and the rich merchant landlord class were actually more luxurious and gorgeous than the emperor's......

Of course, there is one thing. Except for the emperor, ordinary people were not allowed to wear it.

That is the Liu crown invented and created by Emperor Taizu Gao Liu Bang.

What is the so-called Liu's crown? To put it simply, it is a crown made of bamboo bark that somewhat resembles a magpie's tail.

This kind of crown has almost no scientific and technological content and is simple to manufacture, because its inventor is Liu Bang, and Liu Bang loved to wear this crown the most during his lifetime, so after Liu Bang's death, this kind of crown became the exclusive property of the emperor, and others could not wear it at will.

Except for this so-called Liu's crown, the old Liu family has not stipulated any kind of clothing that people are not allowed to wear.

Historically, the institutionalization of the crown of the emperor of the Han dynasty began during the reign of Emperor Xiaowu, and began to be established with the Confucian supremacy in order to distinguish the emperor from others.

But Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che just patched it, and did not stipulate what clothes could only be worn by the emperor, and the ministers and ordinary people could not wear them.

Therefore, Liu Xun usually wears a short coat and runs out of the palace.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the emperor's special clothes officially appeared.

The Han family is still black, and the clothes are generally dark red.

Now, the same is true of the outfit worn on Liu Xun's body.

Liu Xun stretched out his hand, took the Gaozu White Snake Sword handed over by Huang Xie, and let the maid tie the ribbon for herself.

The door of the dormitory had been opened, and outside the door, countless fires were blazing.

The sky-high flames turned the entire Weiyang Palace into daylight.

The fire plate torch is placed in the middle of the Great Chaoyi Palace, which is one of the few existing weekly rites.

Left cross: The princes are welcome. Dian set up the court to burn, and the Chinese language has clouds: the enemy country is the guest to the fire, and the fire master is in charge.

Kong Yingda in the Tang Dynasty

There was a note on this: fire in the court. The ministers who came to the court to burn in at night entered because the fire was the fire.

The so-called court fire hundreds. That's about it, that's why. The ministers are also known as the hundred wives.

Facing the firelight, surrounded by hundreds of maids and eunuchs around him and Lang officials, Liu Xun walked out of the dormitory.

A huge Son of Heaven chariot was already waiting at the gate of the temple.

"Have all the ministers arrived?" Liu asked.

The Han system, the great court, the ministers go to the Xuanshu Hall first, and the emperor will come after all the Qi arrives. Therefore, every year of the Great Imperial Ceremony, the ministers and hundreds of officials will wait in advance at the bottom of the Beique Palace Gate.

Otherwise, if he is late for one reason or another, then the late minister can die!

How dare you enter the temple after the Son of Heaven?

Do you still have the heart to be a courtier?

Huang Xie replied beside him: "Your Majesty, the ministers have already arrived!" ”

After a slight pause, Huang Xie said again: "Please move your majesty to the Xuanshu Hall and comfort the ministers!" ”

Hearing Huang Xie's words, Liu Xun nodded and agreed, to be honest, Liu Xun was also a little nervous.

This is the Great Pilgrimage!

The Western Han Dynasty version of the two sessions!

The counties and countries of the world, the nobles, the princes, the elders, and the relatives are all waiting for him, the emperor.

If you don't get nervous, it's a liar!

But Liu Xun quickly calmed down, because he thought of his identity - I am the Son of Heaven, heaven and earth, I am the only one! Encore is afraid?

So, he lifted the ribbon and led his attendants to the chariot.

Around the car, hundreds of soldiers of Yulinwei were already waiting for the arrival of Liu Xun, the son of heaven, under the leadership of Shi Gao.

"Your Majesty......" Shi Gao stepped forward and saluted: "The minister is ordered to serve the car, please board the car!" ”

As the captain of Fengche, Shi Gao's job is actually to manage the car of the Son of Heaven, the commander of Yu Linwei, just to send him, and now, Shi Gao is back to his old job.

Liu Xun boarded the chariot and, under the escort of the guards and attendants, marched towards the Xuanmur Palace.

Along the way, there were all soldiers and armor, and black flags fluttering.

Today's Weiyang Palace is almost full of soldiers, and the entire Northern Army and part of the Southern Army have entered all parts of Weiyang Palace to serve as security guards.

In other words, Weiyang Palace has now essentially become a huge barracks.

When the car arrived at the Xuanmuro Hall, the scene changed.

The guards of the Xuanmur Hall were all the tallest, strongest and most handsome soldiers of the northern and southern armies, and the minimum height requirement was seven feet.

These soldiers were all heavily armoured and armed with ritual weapons such as axes and swords.

These weapons, all of which are like goods, have no blades, and are basically not lethal.

This is also a tradition since the Zhou Dynasty, where the Son of Heaven will meet, no blades can be entrained, and all things that may endanger the personal safety of the Son of Heaven are excluded.

However, there are exceptions, such as Lang Zhong, the attendants, and the confessors who closely protect Liu Che, these hundreds of people are heavily armed and armed with murderous weapons.

This can probably be regarded as an innovation of the Han family. Who told Jing Ke to assassinate King Qin back then to make a fuss, and everyone in the world knew about it?

In order to avoid the appearance of another Jing Ke second, but the Son of Heaven did not have protective measures, the Han family stipulated that the attendants, Lang officials and confessors around the Son of Heaven could carry weapons and blades.

Especially Liu

The bodyguards around him were even allowed to carry murder weapons like short swords.

Liu Xun's chariot arrived directly from the gate of the Xuanshu Hall to the inner palace of the Xuanshu Palace, and at the gate of the Inner Palace, Liu Che got off the chariot and entered the inner hall of the Xuanmu Hall directly from the temple gate on one side.

Where, the Empress Dowager Shangguan and Empress Xu Pingjun, the two most powerful women in the Han family, were already waiting for his arrival.

The dawn has passed, but the dawn has not yet come.

The sky is still dotted with stars.

Fire trays extended from the Xuanmur Hall, and on both sides of the road, black-armored warriors stood quietly with weapons.

Thousands of princes, ministers, and officials filled the spacious Xuanshu Hall on weekdays.

Just after dawn, the rooster crowed.

The doors of the inner sanctum of the Xuanmuro Hall were all opened. Dozens of black-clothed warriors in armor streamed out of the inner hall and stood solemnly before the Imperial Rank of the Son of Heaven.

Four imperial historians walked out behind Wei Xiang, holding a scroll of Han law, standing under the imperial steps, and suddenly, the entire hall was silent.

Yushi law enforcement, who dares to speak out, that is to find death!

Everything was ready, and Liu Xun's imperial palace was used from the inner hall of the Xuanshu Palace.

"Police!" Prime Minister Huo Guang stepped forward to bow down, and the entourage behind him immediately joined Liu Xun's body with weapons like ornaments.

"Police!" Wei Xiang, the imperial historian, stepped forward and kowtowed, and several imperial historians were separated behind him, holding a volume of Han law, and joined the team.

"Police ......" along the way, where the royal chase passed. Countless courtiers stepped forward to bow down, and Liu Che's team became larger and larger, and when the chariot arrived in front of the imperial order, dozens of attendants who had already prepared immediately stretched their bows and arrows. Stand on the royal steps, stand on both sides, and look at the ministers.

At this time, Taichang Huo Yu came to the front of the car in due time, kowtowed and asked: "Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming, please come to Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xun sat in the car, motionless, opened his mouth slightly, and said, "Yes!" ”

Huang Xie immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty said: Yes! ”

The ministers immediately kowtowed: "Welcome Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Xun walked down from the car, did not look back to see the situation in the Xuanshu Hall at this time, but surrounded by dozens of elite armor soldiers of the Tiger Ben Guard, he went up the imperial stairs until he walked to the throne, and then Liu Che turned around and faced the ministers.

At this moment, what appeared in front of Liu Xun was an incomparably magnificent scene.

Inside and outside the Xuanshu Palace, countless fire plates shone on the ministers, and the silent armor soldiers stood on both sides of the hall, and countless battle flags fluttered high.

There is a faint light in the eastern sky.

At this moment, Liu Xun happened to stand at the highest point of the Xuanshu Palace, and the Xuanshu Hall is the tallest building in Weiyang Palace, and Weiyang Palace is higher than Chang'an City.

Liu Xun stood in front of the throne, as if he had ascended to the top of the heavens.

He opened his hands slightly and ordered: "Zhu Qing is flat!" ”

Taichang Huo Yu immediately said: "The emperor ordered the ministers to be flat!" ”

Thousands of non-commissioned officers kowtowed to Zuo San before they got up, and then lined up on the east and west sides with civil and military forces.
