Chapter 31: The Upper Dynasty!

In the early morning of the next day, in the embassy, Yu Wenwen, whose eyes were a little dark, stood with his hands raised horizontally and yawned, Zhang Yu and others were helping him put on court clothes, today is the court meeting, so it is the third day of arriving in Yecheng Yu Wenwen, and he will be directly on the court meeting.

He went to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday and performed another scene for Prime Minister Wei Chi to 'watch', while Deputy Envoy Zheng Wanqing led the negotiation team to bargain with Prime Minister Zuo for a day, and handed over the prepared lines to Yu Wenwen to recite in the evening.

Therefore, Yuwenwen's lack of sleep is purely due to work, and it is not because some psychologically shady people say that they drink all night for fun.

His title is the county prince of the nine lives, and the official position is the state assassin history of the seven lives, according to the highest rank, the court clothes are the level of the 'princes', and the full set of court clothes must first start from scratch, and the so-called high-sounding 'crown' must be worn, and then the clothes.

In the Zhou system, there are nine kinds of crowns of the princes: square, gon, mountain, squire, fire, and other six, all of which are nine; Wei Ben, Pi Ben, and Xuan Guan are a total of three, and they are nine together. The crown is the most valuable of the ceremonial crowns, and it is generally worn only when participating in grand sacrifices, and Wei Ben and Pi Ben are used in military affairs, so Yuwen Wen wears a Xuan crown.

The second is the costume, the nine chapters of the prince's clothes, the clothes are heavy algae powder rice, the clothes are heavy and yellow, all with the mountain as the collar, the crown clothes and shoes are finished, and then there is a series of court clothes 'accessories': seals, ribbons, wats, white pens, purple lotus, and swords.

The seal is the seal, and the ribbon is a decorative ribbon tied to the handle of the seal, Yuwen Wen wears the golden seal of the turtle button with two square inches and eight points high, and the ribbon is dark, because it is a gold seal, so the weight is full, and it is engraved with seven words of "the seal of the official of Xiyang County".

On the right side of the waist of the court dress, there is a sac embroidered with a tiger's head, which is attached to the belt, specially used to put the seal, and the ribbon can be placed in the sac, or it can be hung down on the waist.

Wat is for the minister of the last dynasty to hold in the hand to make a note of the board, and the later generations of the notebook function is similar, the material is mostly wood, bamboo, of course, the high-level jade, ivory, rhinoceros horn material, Yu Wenwen held the ivory wat.

Just have a notepad - wat is not enough, you have to have a pen to write on the wat, this thing is a white pen, the court dress is naturally not designed with a chest pocket to facilitate the insertion of the pen, in order to facilitate access, the white pen is clamped in the right ear.

This image is similar to the carpenter's ear with a pen, of course, the court officials do this in the name of "hairpin white pen", as the so-called "scholar's business, can it be called stealing?" ”

There is a purple pouch sewn on the left shoulder of the court dress, which is the purple lotus and also known as the deed bag, this accessory is only available to high-ranking officials, and the level of 'group of ministers' is gone;

After dressing, Yu Wenwen walked out of the mansion and talked to Zheng Wanqing, who was also dressed, and the official came to report that the car had arrived, and the two walked towards the door one after the other.

Dressed in court clothes to the palace you have to take a car to set up a guard of honor, the car is naturally a high-end cargo - a chariot, there are nine kinds of cars of the princes, Yuwenwen can't go all the way from Bazhou to get nine kinds of chariots, so it has to be provided by the imperial court.

Now the imperial court has prepared a blue robe for Yuwenwen, and the chariot body is all tin-faced, tasseled nine, and golden hooks.

The flag is built on the chariot, and the flag is painted with a white tiger, all of which are cloudy; There are five feathers and bars, and they are swept and slashed; There are also tongshu for the silk, miscellaneous silk for the object, on the book "Xiyang County Gong", and the book "Bazhou Thorn History", and then the book "Zong Yuwen Wen".

Yu Wenwen and his entourage went from Shannan to Yecheng, and the relevant matters had already been communicated with the imperial court, so these full sets of travel equipment had already been prepared, and it was impossible to wait for him to arrive in Yecheng to make a temporary system.

Zheng Wanqing is the doctor, there are six kinds of chariots according to the level, and the leather chariot prepared today is the leather chariot, the banner is configured according to the doctor's level, and the official and the name of the person are also written on the silk, and the two of them each board the car to escort the cavalry in front of the road, escorting the chariot to the palace.

The embassy is located in the southern city, so it is not far from the imperial palace in the southern city, such as today, the morning light appears in the east, the sun has not yet shown its head, there are few pedestrians on the street, and the occasional few are also repelled by the opening cavalry to retreat on the side of the road.

"It's really a toss, every morning, I have to get up from the early morning to dress up, and I don't dare to eat too much breakfast for fear that the hall will be in a hurry, or it is more comfortable to go out to the state and county. Yuwen Wen thought so, but he just thought about it.

The big husband can't be without power for a day, being the head of the outside, the assassin of the history and other earth overlords are cool, in case there is no one in the court, it will be played to death, the peaceful era is okay, once you encounter an eventful autumn, you can only stare dryly, if it is a big change in Beijing, it is beyond the reach of the whip.

In the middle of May of the second year of the elephant in history, the Tianyuan Emperor Yu Wenyun suddenly fell ill and was bedridden, and the lawless 'Tian' knew that the situation was not good, and urgently recruited the five feudal kings who were driven to other places to return to Beijing to fight the fire.

As a result, within a few days, Yuwenyun rode Bintian, and Yang Jian, the Duke of Sui in Beijing, was close to the water and the tower first, and took the opportunity to usurp power and control the forbidden army to control Chang'an, and wiped out the Yuwen clan.

Yuwen Yun was jealous of Yang Jian, the national abbot, and once even had murderous intentions, summoned Yang Jian into the palace for questioning, and ambushed a number of knife and axe hands in advance, just waiting for an order to rush out and cut people, but was deceived by Yang Jian, who pretended to be stupid.

Yang Jian also knew that his son-in-law had the intention to kill him, so in order to avoid trouble, he left the relationship with his old classmate Zheng Yi, and successfully said that Yu Wenyun sent him out of Yangzhou as the chief manager, but at this moment, Yang Jian suddenly had a foot disease and could not travel far, and the matter of going out was suspended.

Coincidentally, Yu Wenyun immediately fell ill, and couldn't even speak, seeing that the emperor was about to finish, all the magnates in the capital were ready to move, and the queen Yang Lihua was so anxious that the six gods had no owner, and urgently recruited her father Yang Jian into the palace to put out the fire.

Then there was no then, there was no real power in the Yuwen clan in Chang'an, and the five vassal kings with a little real power were in the field, Yang Jian easily usurped power, and the Yuwen clan had worked hard for more than 40 years, and it was completely defeated in a few months, Yuwen Wen thought of this, and a thought suddenly came to his mind.

In the original history, it was Yang Jian who suddenly exerted his strength, poisoned Yu Wenyun and turned him mute, and finally died in an unknown manner, otherwise where would there be such a coincidence!

"The intrigue between the son-in-law and the father-in-law, you are dead and alive, it is really a deception" Yu Wenwen sighed, and then was stunned: Speaking of which, I am also Yang Jian's cheap son-in-law! ……

Outside the palace, a large number of cars stopped outside the stop door, and officials in court clothes walked down from each carriage, and they walked towards the stop door one after another, greeting each other from time to time.

Unless it was a privileged dignitary, no one was allowed to pass through the gate, and the officials walked through the gate to the front door of the palace to the north.

Yuwen Wen and Zheng Wanqing walked in the crowd, on one side was the master of ceremonies sergeant leading the way, he entered the palace for the first time to participate in the court meeting, in order to avoid 'accidental loss', the Prime Minister's Mansion specially arranged someone to lead the way and explain.

"That's Shannan's messenger, right?"

"The young one is not the Yuwen envoy of Bazhou?"

Whispers came from around, Yu Wenwen walked forward with a smile, he didn't know these officials, even if he came forward to greet him, he didn't know how to call them, make a good impression first, anyway, there will be time to make friends in the future.

From the stop gate to the north, is the main gate of the imperial city - Duanmen, the court officials came to the Duanmen and stopped in front of the door, one by one are tidying up, guarding the gate on both sides of the army, silently watching the court officials walk into the gate.

Seeing the majestic forbidden army, Yu Wenwen couldn't help but think of his days on duty in the Chang'an Palace, several adventures, the entanglement with Yang Lihua, and the scene in the meditation room.

"Envoy, the court officials must be cleaned up in front of the end door." The master of ceremonies explained in a low voice, Yu Wenwen nodded, and dressed like Zheng Wanqing.

Entering the end gate, he habitually looked at both sides, and found that there was an east-west avenue in the end gate, and the master of ceremonies explained that this avenue was out of the cloud dragon gate in the east and the Shenhu gate in the west.

Yu Wenwen continued to walk north with the crowd, but saw a short wall like a screen across the central axis, and the officials went around the short wall left and right to continue walking, and the master of ceremonies explained to him that this was a "screen wall".

'Screenwall? It's about the shadow wall of the later generations.,I think it's the main gate behind it.。 Yu Wenwen thought.

Sure enough, after bypassing the screen wall, there is a closed gate in front of it, only to see the plaque on the lintel with three gilded characters written in the "Lu Closed Door", the master of ceremonies explained to him that this is the main gate outside the palace, and then it is the Taiji Palace, the place where the Son of Heaven will meet the ministers.

"Envoy, the court officials need to be divided into civil and military affairs at this gate, and line up according to the rank, and enter in turn after the gate is opened, so that the king and the servants are foreign officials, and they can only enter the palace after the court meeting begins."

Yuwen Wen nodded when he heard this, most of the rules in the palace are similar, but the details are slightly different, for example, the main halls of various countries are called Taiji Palace, and foreign officials are not allowed to enter the palace without being summoned, etc.

There are some common etiquette, when entering the court, you have to run in small steps, which is the so-called 'tending', the courtiers tend to show respect, and when entering the palace, you have to remove the sword, take off the shoes (shoes), and wear socks to enter.

If there are people who "praise and worship the nameless, do not enter the court, and go to the temple with their swords", except for a small number of people who are highly respected or have a transcendent status, most of them are powerful ministers, and eight or nine times out of ten they will either usurp the throne or die well.

The sound of drums came from the entrance of the Lu Gate, the spirit of the court officials who had been arranged was invigorated, the drum sounded twelve times, the Lu Gate slowly opened, Yu Wenwen, who was standing on the side of the queue, turned his head to look, and saw a magnificent hall bathed in the morning sun through the gate.

There is a plaque on the main entrance of the main hall, and the book has the words "Taiji Palace".

The sound of horses' hooves started, and a team of cavalry escorted the chariot, marching from south to north to the screen wall in front of the Luqi Gate, and several entourages helped an old man in court clothes to get out of the car.

"Prime Minister"

Greetings rang out one after another, Wei Chi couldn't help nodding, but he still didn't squint straight ahead, along the way the officials were slightly bowed, no one dared to look at him, he was like a tiger king walking among the beasts, looking at all beings.

At this time and now, Yu Wenwen naturally will not be as casual as in the study yesterday, he and Zheng Wanqing bowed their heads together, the prime minister's momentum today is completely different from yesterday, and in the public, there must be etiquette.

Wei Chi Yuan walked to the front of the court official queue, dressed up and immediately entered, and after he stepped into the Lu Gate, the left and right court officials lined up in turn, while Yu Wenwen and Zheng Wanqing followed the line to enter the Lu Gate under the leadership of the master of ceremonies.

Seeing the lonely figure at the front, Yu Wenwen had a lot of thoughts, one person under ten thousand people, he didn't know what it would be like now, as for the feeling of "being at the top of the mountain, seeing the mountains at a glance".

I really want to know! (To be continued.) )
