Chapter 347: The Big Wedding
Chapter 347: The Big Wedding
Li Heng finally officially ascended the throne as emperor and sat on the long-awaited throne of emperor.
On the same day, after the enthronement ceremony, Li Heng changed the Yuan to Germany and was called Emperor Suzong. At this point, the Tang Dynasty bid farewell to the era of Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji and entered the era of Suzong Li Heng. The thirteenth year of Kaiyuan was officially changed to the first year of Germany.
Li Heng canonized the meritorious ministers with great fanfare, readjusted the ministers of the three provinces and six ministries, and formally established the civil and official system of the Central Chalk Central Court with Yang Guozhong and Chen Xian fighting against each other. The military attache is around, headed by the king of Yongning, the marshal of the Longshuo domain, and the general manager of the soldiers and horses marching in the four towns.
Zhang Jiyong was dismissed from office, cut to the people, and never hired∨ family was defeated, but Li Hengnian did not interfere with her for more than ten years before Zhang Liangti, and canonized her as a concubine. And the Zhang family was not expelled from Beijing because of this, but under the suppression of the Yang family and the Chen family, the Zhang family has no place to turn over.
Xue Xiangyun was feared to be named a concubine, Chen Xian's child Chen Xianglian was canonized as a concubine, and Zhang, the mother of Jianning Wang Li Huo, was a noble concubine.
Zhang Guifei, Xue Shufei, Chen Defei, Zhang Xianfei, harem concubine. But Zhang Liangti is basically beaten into the cold palace in disguise, and he has no name, so the head of the harem is actually Xue Shufei, who has just entered the palace and is favored, this woman has become the second woman in the Yang family to bring together three thousand favors, and the Yang family has a stable position because of this.
Li Heng forgot to give amnesty to the world.
For a time, the Tang Dynasty was beaming with joy and calm. But only a person like Zhang Pian who stands on a high place knows what kind of internal and external troubles are hidden after such prosperity and peace.
For Li Heng, there are still many unstable factors hidden in the latter six, including the old emperor Li Longji, including Zhang Liangti, including many royal princes and princesses, etc., as well as his sons. And above the court, there are only a few courtiers who really have his trust, led by Chen Xian, as for Yang Guozhong, Li Heng just has to use it.
In the feudal town, Zhang Pian feigned for him as his biggest hole card. And An Lushan's increasingly prominent internal troubles gradually made him unable to sleep.
But this can only be done slowly.
That night, Li Heng was on the gate tower of the Vermilion Bird Gate in the imperial city, feasted the Manchu ministers of civil and military affairs, and spent the Shangyuan Festival with the people of Chang'an.
The lights and fireworks were singing and dancing all night, and Chang'an City was happy and sleepless tonight. It wasn't until dawn that the hustle and bustle of the crowd gradually dispersed, and the city returned to peace.
But after the temporary calm, Chang'an City fell into another joyful feast.
On both sides of the road in front of the Yongning Palace, countless Chang'an businessmen and people flocked to it, overcrowded and crowded. Today, it is Zhang Pian, the king of Yongning, who married the two side concubines of the princess Wanchun and Su Hudong, the princess of Huichun.
Although Wan Chun was deprived of the title of princess by the imperial court, Si Shi was canonized as the lady of Lingguo, and her status has hardly changed. And Su Hudong was canonized as a returned lady, which proves that the two daughters nominally became the two women with the highest status in the Yongning Royal Mansion under the concubine Cui Ying.
Princess Datang and Princess Huichun are one person, and they are not their wives but side concubines, which reflects Zhang Fang's current power from one side.
The guards of Jingshi Yu Linwei and Zhang Pian guarded the inside and outside of the Yongning Palace, but the strict security could not stop the enthusiasm of the people in the city.
From the gate of the Yongning Palace to the interface, a bright red carpet was laid, and behind the two rows of solemn military guards were the people and businessmen in the city who were happy and red.
A luxurious carriage stopped at the corner of the street, and then a Chang'an magnate got out of the car, strutting with his personal slave and carrying a gift to congratulate.
"Yang Xiang has arrived!" ,
"Chen Xiang's arrival!" ,
"His Royal Highness King Jianning has arrived!" ,
"Mrs. Thailand, Mrs. Korea, and Mrs. Amber have arrived!" ,
"General Yang Lian of Yulin Wei has arrived!" ,
"Hexi Metropolitan Governor Ge Shuhan, Anxi Metropolitan Governor Yang Jin, Beiting Metropolitan Governor Cheng Ganli, Jiannan Metropolitan Governor An Sishun, Henan Metropolitan Governor Yan Zhenqing have arrived!" ,
A high-pitched singing sounded, and when Ge Shuhan, Yang Jian, Cheng Ganli and other five people arrived, the atmosphere of the scene reached a high "tide".
After all, the Tang Dynasty is a country that advocates the strong and the strong, and the generals in the military in this place, the feudal towns and military generals are far more prestigious and well-known than the ministers of the imperial court, and the people on both sides of the road suddenly cheered and jumped up.
Ge Shuhan and the others nodded and smiled at the people, and strode through amid the boiling cheers.
And not long after the five of them passed, they heard the rumbling salute from the imperial city, and the people began to turn their heads and stare excitedly: The emperor is out of the palace! The new emperor is coming!
Major events, royal travel, non-small business. Moreover, today is the first time that Li Heng has "appeared" after ascending the throne and becoming emperor, and he is naturally extremely gorgeous and imposing in terms of honor and etiquette.
His Li drove for several miles, and the palace forbidden guards who opened the way first had already lined up at the entrance of the street, and the follow-up honor guard slowly marched on Suzaku Street, "The flag is fluttering, and the crown is like a cloud.
It took Li Heng nearly an hour to walk from Xingqing Palace to the street outside the Yongning Palace.
"Your Majesty has arrived! The lady lady has arrived! Huo Changqing, the chief eunuch, shouted in a sharp voice, and at this time, Yang Guozhong, Chen Xian and the relatives of the Zhang family had already gone out to greet the visiting guests and knelt down at the street entrance.
And the people and merchants on both sides of the road also knelt on the ground.
"Long live my emperor, long live!" ,
In the sound of ...... long live, Li Hengzhi proudly got off Li Jia, and the little hand of Concubine Xue Shuqiao, surrounded by eunuchs and palace maids, slowly walked towards the Yongning Palace.
At this time, Zhang Pian had already left the mansion to welcome his relatives, and those who stayed in the mansion to receive the distinguished guests were his mother Liu and two uncles, and his two brothers and the younger generations of Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao also helped in the mansion.
Because of the eight-day wedding, Li Heng, the new emperor, had to preside over the wedding in person, so the wedding procedures were reduced and adjusted a lot. In a sense, Zhang Pian's wedding also had a political "color" color, and it became a grand ceremony on the second day of Li Heng's ascension to the throne and emperor.
In fact, almost all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty with six grids came, and most of the Chang'an royal family also came. Even Li Heng's princes and daughters mostly attended.
The wedding ceremony, which was supposed to start in the afternoon, started in the morning. Because there are two brides, Zhang Pian has to do two wedding gifts. Go to the palace to welcome Wanchun, and then go to the post house to welcome back the pure princess Su Hudong.
The big wedding of Zhang can caused a sensation in the city. Because this wedding involves two princesses and the new emperor himself presides over the marriage, it is huge, which is more than when Zhang Pian married Cui Ying.
At three o'clock, Zhang Yan finally welcomed the two brides into the palace, and the much-anticipated wedding ceremony was held in time.
The procedure is cumbersome, but the process is not long.
Li Heng personally officiated the marriage, and Yang Guozhong read the canonization edict of Wanchun and Su Hudong on behalf of the emperor, and then the "legal" wedding ceremony. The ceremony is a grand wedding banquet.
Zhang Pian accompanied Li Heng and the Manchu Dynasty to drink happily, and the wedding banquet was not over until the willow tops on the moon were seventy or eighty percent drunk. By the time Li Heng and the guests were sent away, it was already midnight.
Zhang Pian returned to the palace tiredly, and looked back at the wide main entrance of the palace slowly closing, making a solemn sound, and his heart was relieved.
Since this morning, he has not stopped, constantly repeating one stiff "prescribed action" after another, with a programmed smile on his face, saluting, chilling, thanking, drinking............ Tossed all the way, the iron man couldn't bear it.
And then, there are many etiquettes for entering the cave room. For example, according to the Tang ceremony, the bride should cover her face with a fan, and it can only be removed after the official worship with the groom. Another example is the bun, where both men and women cut off a little hair, and the "bun" is usually handed over to the bride immediately for preservation. The so-called "according to both cut the clouds, Lang also divides the hair." Looking for nobody, the heart knot of the division is made",.
As soon as Zhang Pian thought of this, his head grew big.
He walked slowly towards the **, followed by a group of people in the house who were dressed in a happy robe.
After walking a few steps, Zhang stopped slightly, looked back at Zhang Zhang and said softly, "Zhang Li, have the two uncles ever returned to the mansion?"
Zhang Zhang replied respectfully, "Back to the prince, the two elders have not returned to the house yet, and they are both talking with the old lady and the eldest son and the second son in the front hall!" ”,
"Oh door", Zhang Pian nodded, "Okay, I'll go to the front hall to greet my mother and two uncles first!" ”,
Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao stayed in the Yongning Palace all day today as elders to help Zhang Pian "manage" the wedding, which is also not painful. However, for the relatives of the Zhang family, even the hard work is extremely exciting, after all, Zhang Xiao married the two princesses again, and the emperor personally presided over the marriage, which means great glory to the Zhang family.
Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao, as well as Zhang Huan, Zhang Ning and others accompanied the Liu family to speak in the main hall, and the elders and immediate family members would not leave until Zhang Jar had fulfilled all the etiquette of the cave room.
Everyone was talking about today's wedding in full swing, when they suddenly saw Zhang Pian enter the hall.
Zhang Huan was stunned, and immediately got up and said with a smile, "Third brother, why did you come to the door at this time, you should go to the cave room!" ”,
The Liu family immediately frowned and said, "Pian'er, you should go to the cave room, don't snub the two princesses, and let the family say that our Zhang family is rude!" ”,
Zhang Pian smiled bitterly and bowed to Liu's, Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao, "Mother, two uncles, for Zhang Qiao's marriage, let the elders '' hard, it's embarrassing!" ”,
Zhang Jiuming laughed, waved his hand and said, "Piece, you can marry the two princesses in time, this is the great glory of our Zhang family, my uncle is tired to death, and he is also willing!" ”
