After thinking about it again, Hou Xuanyan still couldn't make up his mind, there are benefits to sealing Zen, but I don't know if this benefit is big enough.

Since ancient times, the most feared by the Han people is the prince of heaven and earth, and heaven is the supreme existence in the hearts of Han people.

As a ritual of sacrificing heaven and earth, Feng Chan can undoubtedly play a role in strengthening the dominance of feudal emperors in the process of being held. Because the general Feng Zen will write a prayer to express the mandate of heaven, praying for the blessing and blessing of the emperor, which is undoubtedly also announcing the "divine right of the monarch" in the world, which must not be disrespected.

It can also promote the peace, strength, prosperity and prosperity of the dynasty, sing praises for themselves and the dynasty, and strengthen the cohesion of the people.

What are the downsides?

It's just a bit of a hassle.

When Hou Xuanyan was in the early dynasty of Fengtian Palace, he mentioned it in passing, and the pot suddenly exploded below.

Those who agreed were very excited, and bluntly said that this was a grand event that conformed to the principles of heaven and the people's hearts.

The word of the opposition is that this move costs the people and money, and coupled with Song Zhenzong's jokes, it is the same whether it is sealed or not.

In case it is compared with Zhao Huan, there is no reason to lower His Majesty's grade.

The height of the temple, in the eyes of the Shengdou people, is no less majestic than the Nine Heavens Lingxiao Palace.

But to put it bluntly, it's just a group of ordinary people who get together for a meeting.

Now it's so noisy, it's really like a market market, noisy with red ears and thick neck. A few of them couldn't be reasonable, and even started personal attacks. Of course, there are also a small number of people, like Hou Xuanyan, who feel that this matter can be done or not. These people are very lacking in morality, standing on tiptoe to watch the excitement, and from time to time they help light the fire, making the scene even more hot.

Looking at the noisy Fengtian Palace, Hou Xuanyan had a big head for a while, and shouted impatiently: "Shut up, have a small meeting!" ”

Xiao Lizi was furious when he saw Long Yan, and hurriedly announced: "Retreat from the dynasty." Then he followed the emperor and walked out of the hall.

After retiring from the court, the six Shangshu and the three bachelors in the court went to Nuanfang Pavilion with their own hearts. Ma Shiying was very active in the palace just now, and now he is even more prepared to fight against public opinion.

Along the way, ministers kept coming forward and muttering, nothing more than persuading them to support or oppose.

Several people buried their heads outside the Nuanfang Pavilion and entered in turn, Hou Xuanyan had been waiting for a long time.

"There are a lot of people outside, and the noise is hard to stop, so let's decide." Hou Xuanyan looked at the group of Aiqing and spoke.

A moment later

Hou Xuanyan looked at the chaotic situation in the Nuanfang Pavilion with his cheeks raised, shook his head and said, "Isn't this the smaller Fengtian Palace?" ”

A group of people led by Ma Shiying insisted that a ceremony must be held; Chen Mingyu was worried that the people would lose money, and Gong Zifang felt that it was profitable, and it would not lose money from the treasury, and it would also be good for the people; Wang Fuzhi sneered, this is the decadent and backward Confucian thought; Gu Yanwu immediately took out the example of Qin Shi Huang to refute him, he didn't respect Confucius at that time

Everyone quarreled with style, level, laughter and scolding, and there were all kinds of things.

With a bang, Hou Xuanyan slammed his fist on the table, and everyone quieted down and looked at him sideways.

"Let the heavens decide!"

The emperor has spoken, of course everyone has to give face, and stare at how to let the heavens decide.

Hou Xuanyan watched everyone, took a page from the table, picked up a pen and drew the appearance of a mountain. Then he raised his head and said triumphantly: "I threw it into the sky, and if there is a mountain facing up, it means that the will of heaven wants me to seal the Zen, otherwise I will give up." ”

"What Your Majesty said, is it a lot?" Gu Shouzheng's face was incredible, as the secretary of the ministry, he was the head of the six departments, but he didn't expect to witness a royal drawing of lots with his own eyes.

Hou Xuanyan stood up, waved the cuffs of his wide dragon robe, and raised his head with his hands behind his back and said: "I am the Son of Heaven, and I should ask the sky if I am undecided, if it is a real dragon Son of Heaven, how can I throw a piece of paper into the sky like an ordinary man, and fall at will." It must be handed over by the world and destined to be good, what objections do you have? ”

Who dares to have objections now, if there is an objection, it will be a denial that the emperor is the true dragon emperor, and the ministers are like eating Coptis chinensis, and their faces are full of black lines and are silent.

On the contrary, it was Gu Shouzheng, who listened to these words, and was really convinced. In his opinion, Hou Xuanyan is a well-deserved true genius, if this ridiculous method is done by others, Gu Shouzheng has to roll up his sleeves and fight with him, but as soon as Hou Xuanyan said it, he became a supporter.

Hou Xuanyan threw his hand, only to see the piece of paper spinning and falling to the ground, and the front was an image of a hill under the waves. Not to mention anything else, this Q version of Little Tarzan is still a little cute.

The ministers stared at the piece of paper, and before they were stunned, Hou Xuan's performance had already begun.

"Providence, providence is so, but I am disrespectful."

In this way, the Zen is determined, and the Zen Taishan will be sealed in March of the next year.

Having solved such a major event, Hou Xuanyan was very happy and came to the Imperial Garden humming a minor tune.

It is late autumn, the flowers are withered, only the chrysanthemums are blooming in the imperial garden, and the yellow and white flowers are very attractive.

On a whim, Hou Xuanyan folded a few branches and held them in his hands, and continued to walk forward.

Crossing the corridor, suddenly a small figure rushed into his arms, and Hou Xuanyan took her into his arms.

I saw a girl in a goose-yellow palace dress, with a handsome and beautiful appearance, with a towering black cloud bun on her head, under the cloud bun was a snow-white and charming little face, her eyebrows were like a crescent moon, and her face was tender like a bud.

"Father!" After seeing Hou Xuanyan's face clearly, Hou Wanshu affectionately got into his arms and sprinkled coquettishly.

As soon as Hou Xuanyan wanted to speak, he heard a crisp voice coming: "Have you hidden it?" My brother is coming, I'm coming! ”

Hou Xuanyan heard Zhu Linhao's voice, and walked forward helplessly, only to see Zhu Linhao wearing a white robe, a light bundle of black hair, and a bohemian single ponytail.

Seeing that Hou Xuanyan's face was not good, he pretended not to see her, turned around and made a gesture to run.

Hou Xuanyan was full of black lines, stretched out his hand, and shouted: "Hao'er, come here!" ”

Zhu Linhao saw that he couldn't run away, so he turned his head stupidly, with an exaggerated expression on his little face, and shouted: "Ah! Father, my son wants you to die. ”

Hou Xuanyan pursed his lips, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't come to this set, what kind of dress are you?" ”

Hou Wanshu covered her mouth and chuckled, and Zhu Linhao smiled wryly: "Doesn't my father like it?" Erchen felt very chic. It's my father, holding a chrysanthemum, which is very unusual. ”

Hou Xuanyan's eyes were dark, and he covered his forehead and said secretly, this little girl is almost ten years old, and she will marry sooner or later, how can she marry like this?

And her identity is so sensitive, how to explain it is also a difficult problem

"You, I'm so sad that my father is dead."
