According to the deduction of the Grand Ceremony Star, Yun Ji's Confession Ceremony is scheduled to start at the beginning of the time.

Previously, whether it was Zongzheng Chengcheng or historical books, there was no precedent for concubines to recognize foreign ministers as their fathers. Therefore, the rituals of today's ceremony were temporarily agreed upon by the Sect. According to the rituals agreed upon by the Zongzheng, the ceremonies were laid out one by one:

At the end of the hour, Xiao Tuyu took Empress Yu and Empress Xuanren into the main hall of Changqiu Palace. Naturally, he sat in the middle. Empress Xuanren was humble and arranged Empress Xuanren on the right side to show respect, although Empress Xuanren excused herself in every possible way, but Empress Xuanren insisted on being very strong, and finally came out to mediate, saying: "Okay, imperial sister-in-law." The young and the old are orderly, and the royal sister-in-law is on the right, which can also show the royal etiquette to the world. The imperial sister-in-law should not refuse. ”

Hearing this, Empress Xuanren said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Empress Xie. Then it is better to be respectful than to obey fate. Then he slowly sat down. The Empress is on the left.

At the beginning of the hour, Yun Ji entered from the main gate of Changqiu Palace and saluted to Xiao Tuyou, Empress Yu, and Empress Xuanren respectively. This is the justice of the monarch and the minister. Then, Yun Yu'e's seat was under Empress Xuanren, also on the right side.

After that, Prince Jiarong entered the palace and saluted Xiao Tuyou, Empress Yu, Empress Xuanren, and Yun Yu'e respectively, and then stood behind Xiao Tuyou to serve. Yun Ji found that the rumored and foolish Prince Jiarong looked very different from the impression that he was stupid. Prince Jiarong has a very good posture, a plump and well-proportioned body, a long round face, quite delicate facial features, pleasant speech, thoughtful etiquette, elegant manners, and looks very amiable and respectable. Everyone said that Prince Jiarong's mind was slower than ordinary people, but Yun Ji couldn't see it at all.

After that, Zong Zhengqing sang loudly: "Xuan Hua Chong, Hua Yun enter the hall." So, Hua Chong and Hua Yun entered the Changqiu Palace and gave great courtesies to Xiao Tuyou, Empress Yu, Empress Xuanren, Yun Jiao'e, Prince Jiarong and others.

After that, he said, "Give me a seat." That is, to give Hua Chong and Hua Yun. Hua Chong's seat is on the left, a little farther away from the queen's head, Hua Yun also has a seat, under Hua Chong's seat.

So far, all that has been done is the etiquette between the monarch and the minister.

From this moment on, enter the link of the family ceremony, that is, the link of the confession ceremony. Zong Zhengqing began to preside over the ceremony.

Zong Zhengqing sang: "Yun Jiao'e Niangniang knelt down, offered tea, and changed her ......"

Yun Jiao'e got up, knelt down to worship Hua Chong, offered tea, and changed her words: "Father." ”

Zong Zhengqing sang again: "Hua Chong awarded the family card ......"

Then Hua Chong gave Yun Jiao'e a jade brand, which was Hua's ancestry. The name plate reads "Hua Yun Ji." This means that Yun Ji has officially entered the Hua clan.

Then, under the auspices of Zong Zhengqing, Yun Ji and Hua Yun performed equal salutes, calling each other "sister" and "brother", which was regarded as entering Hua Chong's house.

After that, Hua Chong, Hua Yun, and Yun Ji jointly saluted to Xiao Tuyou, Queen Yu, and Empress Xuanren, and thanked Lu Tuyou and Queen Xuanren for their great kindness. This can be regarded as a family thanksgiving after recognizing relatives.

After that, it was Hua Chong's gift and the emperor's and empress's reward.

Hua Chongjin's gifts were very heavy, and the gift list alone was thick. The reward of Tuyu and Queen Yu is quite concise and restrained. is indispensable, Hua Chong is grateful again.

Empress Xuanren gave a reward alone, and the things she gave were also very restrained, which was one level lower than the reward given by the emperor and empress.

At this point, even if it is a great gift. The whole ceremony, the ritual is concise, but it does not lose the royal style, taking into account the physical condition of Yun Suo'e who cannot move and the necessary scenes of the royal ceremony. He and Empress Yu were very satisfied.

Next is the emperor and the queen in the Changqiu Palace.

When the banquet is given, the original seats in the Changqiu Palace are not changed, but a dining table is added in front of each seat. At the same time, a case was added to Yun Jiao'e's head, which was the seat of Prince Jiarong.

The banquet officially opened at the beginning of the afternoon.

Xiao Tuyu spoke first and said with a smile: "It's okay now." We're all family. Now, you can relax and don't be inhibited. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone said.

Xiao Tuyou moved his chopsticks first, and he just picked and ate a few bites of fruit crisp to show the opening of the table. After a while, Xiao Tuyou said: "Hua Chong, you have been in Liuchuan for eight or nine years, right?" ”

Hua Chong said: "Yes, Your Majesty." It has been almost nine years since the minister went to Liuchuan to serve as the county guard. After the establishment of the country, the then king of Liuchuan County returned to obedience very early, and the county of Liuchuan changed to the county guard system very early, so the minister went to Liuchuan to be the county guard, which was earlier than the county guard of other counties. ”

"Yes." I remember that in the midsummer of the fourth year of Longwu, the then king of Liuchuan County took the initiative to abandon the county and moved his family to the holy capital, and the first emperor still sent me to the outskirts of the holy capital to meet me. It's been almost nine years in the blink of an eye. Time flies. You're getting more and more vigorous, and you don't see a bit of old looks. ”

Hua Chong said: "Your Majesty really has a good memory. Since going to Liuchuan, there have been fewer times when the ministers have entered the holy capital, and there have been fewer times to serve His Majesty, and the ministers deeply regret it. The minister still remembers that His Majesty led the army to subdue the rebellious Suli County at that time. That was more than ten years ago, and His Majesty's demeanor is vivid. ”

Xiao Tuyou smiled: "Hey, where do I know what to march and fight." I'm just sitting on the throne, and it's all you generals who use their soldiers like gods. The place in Suli County is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is really not easy to subdue them. When the first emperor was there, he often said that the battle of Su Li was the fixed star of the war of cutting the domain, and as soon as Su Li was flat, the other county kings with different surnames were not a problem, and they were obedient one after another. ”

When Tuyu said this, Queen Yu couldn't help but glance at Hua Chong, and it happened that Hua Chong was also looking at Queen Yu, and the two of them looked at each other and turned away.

Hua Chong said: "Yes." This is all thanks to His Majesty's blessing, so that the army can be victorious. ”

Xiao Tuyou didn't answer, but asked: "My kid, he said that he has been in Liuchuan for a while, how is he doing?" ”

Hua Chong said: "His Royal Highness the King of Liuchuan County has the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, with a graceful demeanor, and he has a good way of governing the army. Although His Royal Highness was not out of the county of Liuchuan for a long time, he was already quite famous in all walks of life in Liuchuan. This is all a blessing for the people of Liuchuan. On behalf of the people of Liuchuan, thank Your Majesty Longen. ”

Tuyou smiled: "You don't have to elevate him. He's still young, what rules can he have for governing the army? You are a real brand of generals with real swords and guns, can you look at his two hits? Of course, it's not just the title, the princes who have recently been newly divided have not yet fully grown up, and I am worried that they will do anything wrong in the county and ruin the country's major affairs. You county guards, although you have a share of duties with the county kings, but you county guards are the pillars of the country, and you sincerely seek the country, you look at what should be mentioned, or you still have to mention some of their children. I'm afraid that they will rely on themselves as princes and do mischief in the county. You must remember that you are not kings! If you have anything to say, you can just tell me. ”

Hua Chong said: "Huh." Your Majesty. Obey the hadith. If the minister has any opinion, he will definitely play His Majesty as soon as possible, and ask His Majesty to make a holy judgment. ”

Xiao Tuyu nodded and said, "Very good." Hua Chong, if this is counted, you are still the first county guard I met with since the implementation of the new policy. After today's ceremony, you will spend a few more days in the Holy Capital and tell me about the implementation of the new policy in Liuchuan. I had never been a county guard before, so I didn't know what was going on in the county where the first emperor implemented the county guard system. The county king system, the county guard system, and the county king and county guard division system, in the end, who is superior and who is inferior, I actually don't have a complete bottom in my heart. ”

This involves a comparison of the political advantages and disadvantages of the old and new Koreas, and it is time to make a clear statement. Hua Chong thought that although Empress Xuanren was present, it was not appropriate to criticize the policies of the first emperor, but if the emperor spoke like this, if he did not make a clear statement, he would immediately cause a big disaster. Fortunately, the implementation of the new policy is still short, and some things can be said more thoughtfully. And speaking well is Hua Chong's greatest specialty.

Hua Chong said with a smile: "Needless to say, the disadvantages of the county king system are very deep. Your Majesty is well aware of this. The minister still remembers that when His Majesty took his ministers and others to subdue the county of Huanshui, when he saw that the life of the king of the county of the water was erosive, the people were poor, the army was vulnerable, and the king of the county of the water was crying bitterly after the destruction of the country, His Majesty said at that time, 'The laziness and cowardice of the king of the county are despicable, and the disadvantages of the county king system can be seen'. His Majesty's words were also rewarded by the first emperor Longwu the Great. As for the county guard system, the minister has been a county guard for nine years, and he knows a little about the county guard system. The minister thought that the county guard system was much better than the county king system, but it was not without flaws. If the county guard has a different heart, the disaster is even higher than the county king of the county king system. ”

"That's a new saying, let's hear it."

"Most of the feudal county kings under the county king system are longer than the deep palace and hereditary, so most of them are lazy and cowardly, so they are easier to accept, but the county guards are different. If the county guards live in a county for a long time, they have great power and high prestige, and once they cause chaos, it will be extremely difficult to subdue and the harm will be greater. ”

"You have a point. What about the current law of county kings and county guards? ”

"Your Majesty's law of county and county observance and co-governance, which can eliminate the disadvantages of the county system and reap the benefits of the county system, is really a good law for governing the world, and it cannot be done by a holy lord like Your Majesty who knows the hearts of the people. The minister thought that within five years, Dazhao would usher in a prosperous era. Congratulations to His Majesty! Congratulations to the people of the world! ”

Xiao Tuyou and everyone smiled and drank a bottle of wine.

Tuyu was in a good mood and said, "Ho." What a refreshing sake! After a sip, the heat in the whole body dissipated. What kind of wine is this? I've never seen it before. ”

Queen Yu said: "Your Majesty, this is a special offer from the king of Canaan County, Xiaojia and Canaan County Shourongzhu, and it is a fruit wine that is a specialty of Canaan. ”

"Fruit wine? I had never drunk it before. This wine is really a great way to beat the heat. ”

Queen Yu said: "This is all a piece of filial piety from the king of Canaan. He knew that the base of His Majesty's body was the body of the extreme yang, and he was naturally afraid of heat, so he specially offered this fruit wine to cool off the heat. What is rare is that the king of Canaan himself tried repeatedly for several months, and found that there was nothing abnormal in his body, and his spleen and stomach were not cold, so he dared to pay tribute. When paying tribute, he also specially instructed that the imperial doctor in the palace should first ask the imperial doctor to order a priori to see and inspect it, and then give it to His Majesty to drink. This boy is truly faithful. ”
