In the Ming Dynasty. The emperor ascended the throne and succeeded to the throne. It is called a "pole climber". The so-called pole climber. It is interpreted literally. The etiquette at the time of the ascent of the peak.

After all, it was the new emperor who ascended the throne. Therefore, this process can be said to be extremely cumbersome.

Zhang Juzheng is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Naturally, he was in charge of all matters related to the ascending instrument. However, even he had been preparing since the day Long Qing had just died. But know now. Nearly half a month has passed. That's what gets it right. It's a lot haste.

June 10. Qin Tianjian said that this day was an auspicious day. In fact, many people can't see whether this day is auspicious or unlucky. But since everyone doesn't know. Then they say auspicious, so be auspicious.

In a word. this day. The ascending pole begins.

The Emperor's throne is in the Imperial Palace. Shang Bao Si set up a treasure case in the Imperial Palace. Honglu Temple is set up on the Dan Majesty (the steps in front of the main hall).

The teaching workshop is set up in the middle and Shao music, and it is not done. It means goodbye. After all, today is the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor. How can there be a chaotic ear of silk and bamboo?

Afterwards. Honglu Temple should set up an edict. For the new emperor after ascending the throne. The edict was read.

Of course. There is also a matter of Jinyiwei here. The Jinyi Guard was the most important of the Emperor's twelve personal guards. Naturally, the stakes are high. When the new emperor walked. The cloud cover and cloud disk should move with it. These are the tasks of Jinyiwei.

Now. Zhang Fan took his subordinates. It stands on the east side of the Imperial Palace.

Other. There is also a cloud cover on the Chengtian Gate. Set up clouds outside the noon gate. Set up to read the case on the Chengtian Gate, southwest direction. Wait a minute. These are all preparations.

Morning. The first thing is to tell heaven and earth, the temple, and the community.

The new emperor should wear filial piety clothes and arrange wine and fruit and other items. Personally presented a few feasts of money to the emperor in Daxing. Only longevity. And then it's done.

Afterwards. The new emperor is to wear a crown robe. It's right in front of the Imperial Palace. Set up incense cases, wine, fruits, and other items. Tell heaven and earth.

And then. The new emperor enters the Imperial Palace. Tell your ancestors. To show the filial piety of the new emperor.

After that. The new emperor wears a tiara. Came to the Emperor Daxing again for a few feasts. Five bows and three prostrations. After that. and to the queen mother. Then bow and bow three times. Hesitation: Zhu Yijun was not born to Empress Longqing. So nowadays. He will bow to the two queens. One is the queen mother. One is the biological mother concubine. Today, though. These two are going to become queen mothers.

The worship is over. Zhu Yijun is now going to the Imperial Palace. True enthronement succession.

The bells and drums are ringing in unison. It's just the same as the other day. Longqing looked like when he died. But if you can be in the middle of it. Look at the scene in front of you. Listen to the bell again. It's unforgettable.

Due to the enthronement ceremony. There are many places to go to the new emperor. And as a brocade guard. Naturally, it is necessary to hold the halo (the emperor's travel honor guard). So. Everything that happened on this day. Zhang Fan saw it all in his eyes.

Originally. In Zhang Fan's heart, he thought about it. Did the emperor ascend the throne. Naturally, the pomp and circumstance is huge. But no matter how big, solemn, and fascinating the scene Zhang Fan imagined in his heart. But it was always not as good as what he had seen with his own eyes.

In the enthronement ceremony. Everyone is doing what is scheduled. Absolutely dare not make any mistakes. No one laughed. No one will be saddened. Let's talk about it today. It's not a happy event. After all, the emperor has just made a big move. The whole country mourns. It's not a happy event; But it's not a tragedy. After all, the new emperor ascended the throne. Orthodoxy inherits the royal throne. Continuation of the dynasty.

Although it is said that it is so. Everyone is so serious. It's like a wooden man. Even those who make a loud reminder to salute. The voice is high-pitched though. There is no shortage of passion. But there is a lot of spirituality missing.

But even so, it was wooden. Everyone is on track. And don't dare to go beyond the move of a step. It looks like Zhang Fan. It's still very grand. The grandeur will definitely make him unforgettable for the rest of his life.

These etiquette. Although rigid. But all of them have been passed down for thousands of years. The most powerful expression of the emperor's authority. These. In later generations, it may seem to be nothing more than a manifestation of the feudal ruler's desire for power. But at this time. It undoubtedly represents the most noble in the world. It is also the most orthodox power.

But when it comes to power. Whether it is Zhu Yijun as the new emperor. is still Zhang Fan who is by his side now. Or the ministers. All understood. These are all fake today. Reign supreme in the world. It sounds majestic. But actually. Everyone understands. Today's Zhu Yijun doesn't have that ability. You have to be controlled by others.

After ascending the throne. Go to the Canopy Temple. All civil and military officials wore court uniforms. Honglu Temple led the deacons into the Huagai Hall to pay their respects.

Afterwards. And a lot more things. I won't repeat them all here.

Since it is now June 10 of the sixth year of Longqing. Therefore. Although the name of the year of Wanli was set. But it still has to wait until this year passes. Launched in the coming year.

Now. Now that Zhu Yijun has become the emperor. Then the original queen concubine. Naturally, it is also going to be upgraded.

The queen is not Zhu Yijun's biological mother. But it's my mother-in-law. Honored as the Empress Dowager of the Holy Saint. Residence in Ciqing Palace. Li Guifei is Zhu Yijun's biological mother. Now his son has ascended the throne as the new emperor. She is naturally also the queen mother. Concubine Li Guifei was revered as the Empress Dowager of Cisheng. Residence in Cining Palace.

The emperor entered the main hall and came to the court. All the officials knelt down in unison to congratulate. Afterwards. It was the first decree of the new emperor after his accession to the throne.

Generally speaking. This is the first decree. Actually, most of them are pretty much the same. Basically, all of them. Let's remember the first emperor first. Express your future efforts. Then there will be amnesty for the world. As a sign of kindness.

But this time. Zhu Yijun's ascension to the throne is a little different.

Generally speaking. Especially in the Ming Dynasty. This secret service was extremely developed in the middle of the dynasty. The enthronement of a new emperor in every dynasty. The rotation of the throne is inevitable. It also means this. Changes in the positions of officials of the DPRK and China. Some people are lucky because of this. Step by step; For others, it's unlucky.

But it doesn't matter which one it is. It is usually postponed for a certain period of time. After all, today is the new emperor's accession to the throne. It's not appropriate to say these things.

But Zhu Yijun. Apparently not prepared to do so.

He now asked Feng Bao to promulgate this holy decree. Although it is said that it is the high arch of the minister of the outer court. and Feng Bao, the auxiliary governor of the inner court. Written after an unpleasant reluctant collaboration between the two. Although Zhu Yijun, a puppet-like emperor, does not have any real power. But even so. He still had to add one more.

That one. The high arch is strongly opposed. But Feng Bao is fully supportive.

In this stalemate. Neither of them can argue with the other. In the end, the matter went to the Li family, who was still a concubine. Although she was still a concubine at the time. But Lee clearly has the right to make decisions.

After she heard the news. I didn't think much about it. Then he nodded in agreement.

on this. The high arch is an extreme opposition. I can't care about the face of Concubine Li Guifei, who is going to be the regent. Speak out against it directly.

But Li Guifei only said one sentence. He gagged Gao Gong's mouth. Concubine Li Guifei said that this matter is Your Majesty. That's what Longqing wants.

Now. Regardless of whether Long Qing said this sentence or not. Gao Gong had to agree.

Not bad. It's really about a change in one's position. No. It should be said that it is a change in rank. And what can make Gao Gong so angry. The people involved are naturally not liked by him. And this official title must also be very important.

Really. Feng Bao read the last of the Divine Decree. Suddenly, he said, "Yes." Jinyi Wei commanded the envoy, the prince and the prince, and the loyal and brave uncle Zhang Fan stepped forward to listen to the seal. ”

on this. Zhang Fan was not prepared at all. The situation at the scene was somewhat funny. Zhang Fan, who is the head of Zhu Yijun's guard of honor. At this moment, he was standing by Zhu Yijun's side. But Feng Bao said so. Zhang Fan couldn't help but walk down from above. Walk to the center of the main hall. knelt down: "Weichen Zhang Fan." Listen to Your Majesty's holy will. ”

"Zhang Fan......" Feng Bao dragged a long note. Said. "Continue to take charge of the position of commander of the Jinyi Guard. I. I think you are a teacher. Special title only far away. Hold the position of Taifu. His wife Chen Ruxue. Receive a good order. Chin this. ”

As soon as this decree was read. Above the already silent court. It turned into an eerie silence. The title of Marquis. It doesn't matter. Continue to be in charge of the Jinyi Guard. With the relationship between Zhang Fan and Zhu Yijun. Everyone's hearts are wanting. Mrs. Yipin. Although it is a product. But at the end of the day. It's just a fateful lady.

But this is too ......

What is Taifu? One of the Three Princes also. Rank second to the Grand Master. Higher than the Taibao. There is a clear record in the Ming Dynasty. Three Publics. Palm the Son of Heaven. Yin and Yang. Jingbang Honghua. His duty is of paramount importance.

If it was in antiquity. The position of Taifu can be said to be well deserved. When the Son of Heaven was young. The Three Princes became the true rulers of the country.

Nowadays, however. The title of the Three Princes. There is no real power. But this official title. It's still glorious. And. Do the math carefully. This title of Taifu with no fixed staff. More is given to the dead than to the living. Especially those who are still in the court.

And now...... Twenty-three-year-old Taifu. Have you ever seen it. Hearing is heard. It's just in the books.

And now. A living example is in front of everyone's eyes.

I have to say. Zhu Yijun picked this time. I insist on announcing this at this time. It's really a good move.

If it's on weekdays. This one is down. I don't know how many ministers will oppose it. That year, Zhang Fan was appointed by Long Qing as the crown prince and concubine. That's it. The result was because of Longqing's insistence. is passed.

And now. The new emperor announced this matter from the throne hall. Officials, no matter what. None of them can be opposed.

How can there be the first decree issued by the new emperor. and was opposed by the ministers. It's just that there has never been a new emperor's first ceremonial decree before. Just let out such a news.

Zhang Fan didn't know about this news before. I was stunned for a long time. Still under Feng Bao's reminder. Zhang Fan is kowtowing to thank you.

The first day of the new emperor's accession to the throne. It's in this dramatic situation. It's over.
