The major events of the country, only Rong and ritual!

For Zhu Xia, there is hardly anything more important than worshipping ancestors!

This is true even for countries.

On the seventh day of the first month of the spring of the second year of Yanhe, at noon.

In the high temple, it is already solemn and solemn.

Wang Mang, the commander of the guard, personally led the middle base soldiers to guard the road outside the high temple.

In the high temple, the period of Menlang and Yu Linwei, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, weave into a net.

Without permission, not even a fly can fly in!

"The auspicious time has come! Too often to tell the temple! With the announcement of the high temple blessing, the bells, drum reeds and other musical instruments inside the temple were vigorously played.

In the music, the neat and immature chorus sang, in the dialect of Peixian, singing highly: "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, and the warriors are guarding the Quartet......"

In the chorus of the Peixian boys, Taichangqing Shangqiu Cheng was dressed in court clothes, holding a copy of the edict of the Son of Heaven with a solemn face, and walked through the corridor of the temple to the center of the temple, where the palace was dedicated to Emperor Gao's clothes.

And outside the temple, countless people are looking forward to it.

Zhang Yue is also worried in his heart, and Liu Jin is even more troubled.

Although it is said that since the Qin Dynasty, the will of this ancestor has been liberated from the hands of Miao Zhu and sorcerers.

It became a process that could be controlled by the emperor.

There are also remnants of specific practices in later generations.

That is, every year to worship the ancestors, when the elders pray to the ancestors and the gods and Buddhas, if the divination is not very ideal, they will ask again and again until they get the auspicious hexagram pattern.

Of course, the most ideal is still in a hexagram, hello, hello, hello, everyone.

Therefore, Tai Changqing, who was in charge of the sacrifice, also had some secret techniques to ensure as much as possible that the will of the emperor and the ancestors could be synchronized with the will of the emperor in the world when praying.

Having said that, who doesn't worry when it comes to the end? Who isn't nervous?

As far as a democratic evaluation is conducted in future generations, some people can't sleep, let alone the position of this grandson?

In the entire Chang'an City, the atmosphere at this time was also filled with uneasiness and apprehension.

Almost all of them are waiting for information from inside the high temple.

Finally, after a long wait, the gate of the high temple was slowly opened.

Taichangqing Shang Qiu Cheng strode out, with a solemn expression with some joy: "The minister was ordered to hold the book, and he was in the high temple, burning his armor to see, and he was a good omen!" ”

"This high emperor god is a sign of great joy in the grandson!"

Rumble!

The whole city immediately boiled.

Countless people rushed to tell each other, and the ministers and nobles celebrated each other.

The news soon spread to the crown prince and the palace.

"Too often pray to the gods of Emperor Gao, burn the turtle to divination, and get a good luck!"

In an instant, the entire court boiled.

Shi Liangdi, who had been closed all the time, heard this, and immediately went out and ordered to reward the maids and eunuchs of the palace.

It also made people send silk and satin and treasures to the princes, grandsons, and grandchildren.

When Liu Jin heard this, he stood up all of a sudden, clenched his fists, and danced excitedly in front of Zhang Yue.

"Your Highness not!" Zhang Yue hurriedly grabbed Liu Jin and persuaded: "At this time, His Royal Highness should be quiet!" ”

The gossip party in Chang'an City is pervasive.

In case a day later, there are rumors of Taisun gaffes in Chang'an City, which will hit Liu Jin's image hard.

You must know that from today onwards, Liu Jin will be very different from the past.

He will become the target of public criticism and will become the focus of attention of the world!

When Liu Jin heard this, he calmed down, sat down forcibly and calmly, and said to Zhang Yue: "What Qing said is right! ”

There was a gleam in his eyes: "Be alone, be calm!" ”

But the boiling and fiery heat in his heart still couldn't hide it, and his face turned red with excitement.

Taisun!

When the Son of Heaven reigned, he was determined to be the grandson!

This is the best protection, and it is almost indestructible.

You must know that the son of heaven of the Liu family has liked to find fault with his prince in the past dynasties.

Even Emperor Xian and other Ming monarchs and sages are still disliked by Taizong.

Today, he picked up Prince Su's advantage to get on the throne.

In the past ten years, he has been trembling and walking on thin ice on the crown prince's throne.

The prince of the Han family, unlike the prince of later dynasties, can be above 10,000 people under one person, even if the king doesn't like it, it's not just a minister who can be humiliated.

The prince of the Han family was born to be picked, questioned, and rubbed.

Liu Jin had seen it with his own eyes, Jiang was suppressed and humiliated by his father for many years, and he had also heard the story of the first emperor being rubbed by Zhang Shizhi and Zhang Xiangru.

But he was different!

Even if in the future, my father ascends the throne and does not like his ideas and ways of doing things, but I can only do nothing.

Inside and outside the government, no one can move.

Because he is the grandson, the grandson who is the son of today.

No one can question and shake its position except today.

At this time, a eunuch's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, Your Majesty has sent an envoy to welcome Zhang Shizhong into the palace......"

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "Hurry up, please!" ”

Zhang Yue also hurriedly got up and said to Liu Jinhe: "Congratulations to Your Highness!" ”

The Son of Heaven sent someone to pick up Zhang Yue into the palace, in fact, to tell Liu Jin that he should be ready to enter the palace and accept the congratulations of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.

……………………………………

An hour later, the greenhouse hall of the Jianzhang Palace.

Zhang Yue, under the guidance of Huo Guang, walked into this palace.

Along the way, countless ministers looked sideways.

In everyone's eyes, there is a look of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Han Li Taisun, this is a thing without precedent.

But with Zhang Yue's assistance, Liu Jin did it!

It's a miracle!

Just like when Naizu stayed and waited, he invited Shangshan Sigao to stabilize the position of Emperor Hui in one fell swoop.

Now, among the ministers of Chang'an, there are already rumors circulating.

Many people say: Liu Dezhang is like a tiger with wings.

Especially after Emperor Gao's heroes, he desperately drummed up the momentum in secret.

There is no way, Emperor Gao's heroes are basically withering now.

Even the Pingyang Hou family, which has been prosperous for a hundred years, is also entering the sunset.

The contemporary Pingyang Marquis Cao Zong can't even ride a horse, and it is said that after running for a while, he can't breathe.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Yue's birth made countless people see hope.

Hugging your thighs is something that a fool would do.

It is said that the other branch of the Liuhou family, Zhang Budo's descendants in Pengcheng, is already on the way to Chang'an.

For these people, they are the group that most hopes and supports Zhang Yue's success.

Because, as long as you wait for the offspring to succeed.

Only when they return to their homes and prosperity can there be hope.

For the courtiers, this sudden legend also made many people unable to make up their minds.

Feudal superstition is such a thing, and there are countless elites who believe in it in later generations.

The so-called 'masters' with high school degrees can fool the business elites who flock to them, sending money, houses and girls.

How much more about today's pre-AD world?

Therefore, there are many people who are really confused by this legend.

Even Huo Guang was under scrutiny, with some doubts.

No way!

At the beginning, what was Liu Bang and Zhang Liang before they met?

To put it nicely, it's a prince, but it's ugly, it's just a mountain king!

There are three or five thousand stragglers under his hands, who are the king and hegemon in Xiapi, and when they get out of Xiapi, the ghost knows that there is a pavilion chief named Liu Bang, who led soldiers and horses to oppose Qin?

At that time, people who were better than Liu Bangniu had a lot of buckets!

Therefore, Liu Bang only dared to call himself Pei Gong, but did not dare to call Pei Hou, Pei Bo, Pei Jun, and Pei Wang.

And the meeting between Zhang Liang and Liu Bang is really a day for Dapeng to rise and go straight to nine days and 30,000 miles!

In just two years, Pei Gong's army entered Xianyang and became the leader of the forces on a par with Xiang Yu.

Later, it was because of Zhang Liang that Peng Yue and Fan Hao were stabilized, united with the generals, dug up Xiang Yu's wall, made Yingbu turn against him, and set up various strategies, so that the Chu and Han hegemony became Xiang Yu's family single-handedly fighting the heroes, or Liu Bang took Yingbu, Tian Rong, Peng Yue, and Han Xin to beat Xiang Yu together.

It can be said that without Zhang Liang's advice, it is likely that there would be no today's Han Empire.

Therefore, Emperor Gao said, 'In the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, I am not as good as the ovary'.

Now, Zhang Liang's descendant, a cloth cloth who was killed from Nanling, has created a miracle after assisting Emperor Gao again.

This can't help but Huo Guang not to believe that Liu is paired with Zhang, and it is more suitable rumors.

"In the past, there was Zhang Zifang, and now there is Zhang Zizhong......" Huo Guang sighed in his heart: "This is a rare thing that is destined by God?" ”

With this thought, his heart became even hotter.

A few days ago, he summoned his beloved daughter and asked her tentatively: "Do you want to make me your wife Zhang Zizhong?" ”

As a result, her daughter, who has always been a woman who does not let her eyebrows and has a fiery temperament, turned red for the first time.

This made Huo Guang feel very uncomfortable in his heart.

But......

The young man in front of him is indeed a candidate worthy of entrusting his beloved daughter for a lifetime.

Young and promising, with a great future, and more importantly, he also has an image of 'pity and cherishing jade' in Chang'an City.

This alone killed 90% of the aristocratic men in an instant.

Thinking of this, Huo Guang looked at Zhang Yue's eyes, and couldn't help but become appreciative.

If you think about it carefully, in fact, except for the fact that her daughter may have to suffer a little grievance, this young man perfectly meets all the criteria for choosing a son-in-law.

Even if it is a dead wife, I am afraid that I can't find any shortcomings.

As a result, Huo Guang's attitude became extraordinarily cordial.

"Brother Xian, please come with me......" Huo Guang took Zhang Yue into the greenhouse hall, and whispered: "The queen is also here today, Brother Xian must pay attention to etiquette!" ”

Zhang Yue listened and nodded, theoretically speaking, the power of the Han family is actually in the hands of the queen (queen mother).

This is characteristic of a typical dualistic political system.

However, if she is strong today, Empress Wei does not have much presence, so she is ignored.

However, when it comes to such a major event as the establishment of the prince, it is still up to the queen to decide.

At the very least, the queen had to nod.

…………………………

Under the leadership of Huo Guang, Zhang Yue entered the inner hall and came to the Son of Heaven.

"Weichen Yigong asks my emperor!" Zhang Yue bowed and bowed, bowed to the Son of Heaven and Empress Wei who were sitting on the top, and said, "Congratulations to the queen!" ”

"Qing Pingshen!" The Son of Heaven said with a smile.

"Zhang Qing is exempt!" Empress Wei said with a smile.

For the emperor and queen of the Han family, the appearance of Zhang Yue is also a miracle.

Especially Empress Wei, Zhang Yue's birth is simply auspicious from the sky!

Don't think too much, just compare last year and today this year, Empress Wei will know what has changed when this son appears?

First, he secured the crown prince's position.

After having a grandson, there will be no more accidents when the crown prince will ascend the throne in the future!

At this time last year, the crown prince was besieged from all sides and was in a precarious situation.

Secondly, after the appearance of this son, the center of gravity of the Son of Heaven was obviously moved away from the harem woman.

The son of heaven, who pays attention to health preservation, rarely pampers concubines now.

This guarantees the status of the East Palace!

Therefore, Empress Wei is the person who believes in the rumors of 'Liu Dezhang, like a tiger with wings' that are gradually circulating.

No way, this is what the old woman loves the most.

The queen is not much different from the rural woman in essence.

"How is the grandson now?" The Son of Heaven asked.

"Your Majesty...... Your Highness is now studying with peace of mind and cultivating Ned's ......" Zhang Yue replied quietly.

The Son of Heaven listened and nodded with satisfaction: "Good!" ”

"Today, I came with the queen and Chuanqing to discuss with the emperor about the canonization ceremony of the grandson...... "The Son of Heaven said slowly, then looked at Empress Wei and asked, "Can the queen choose a time?" ”

When Empress Wei heard this, she immediately got up and bowed: "Your Majesty, the concubine ordered the Shaofu to be in the Taimiao, and it will be the ninth day of the first month, which is the day of great luck......

When the Son of Heaven heard this, Long Yan was happy, looked at Empress Wei, and said, "The queen is really doing things!" ”

This is because this date happened to be the day when he ascended the throne forty-seven years ago.

In the entire harem, no one remembers this special day now.

But the queen has always remembered it, which moved him a lot, and he couldn't help but recall the time when he first met Empress Wei in Pingyang County.

At that time, he was high-spirited, young and frivolous, while Wei Zifu was bright and moving, considerate, so that he tasted the gentleness and carefulness of women for the first time, compared with Empress Chen in the palace, it was simply incomparable.

"The concubines don't dare to be ......praised by His Majesty," Empress Wei Yingying bowed: "Thanks to Your Majesty's teaching......

This made the Son of Heaven even more satisfied.

looked at Empress Wei, who was already white-haired, stretched out her hand to help the other party, and said, "Over the years, I have snubbed the queen, is it me!" ”

Empress Wei listened, choked up a little, and bowed: "The concubine can get His Majesty's words, although she has no regrets in death!" ”

When the Son of Heaven heard this, he was also moved, and said, "The queen has worked hard!" ”

Then he turned around, looked at Zhang Yue, and said: "Since the queen has chosen a time, after Naqing returns, she will tell the grandson that you must hurry up and get ready, and in two days, I will take her to the temple and meet the emperors of the past dynasties!" ”

This is a necessary procedure for the establishment of the prince in the Han Dynasty, and it is also the embodiment of Liu's idea of 'the temple is more important than the king'.

"No!" Zhang Yue hurriedly nodded and bowed.

I listened to the Son of Heaven continue: "Qing must also be prepared......"

"On the day of the ceremony, I will appoint Qing to be a spectator!"

Zhang Yue was shocked when he heard this.

Because, the Liu family has always retired from foreign ministers, and only father and son communicate silently with the emperors.

Today's move is tantamount to telling the world that the Liu family did not treat Zhang Zizhong as an outsider!

It's an honor, but it's also a crisis.

Yuan Feng four years, the Son of Heaven with Aichen, Huo to the disease of the posthumous son of the champion mourning Fengche Du Wei Huo Ji Feng Zen Mount Tai, the next day after the Zen ceremony, Huo Ji died at the foot of Mount Tai, the cause of death is still unknown.

Huo Bin is like this, can Zhang Zizhong be an exception?

This is not only curious.

Zhang Yue is also very curious!

So, Zhang Yue took the order: "The minister respectfully obeys the edict!" ”
