"Li Yan, will you do a good job of getting married?" Zhu Houzhao found Li Yan with an innocent face.

Hearing this, Li Yan looked at Zhu Houzhao and smiled. "Your Majesty, it's better to do this kind of thing yourself, of course you are still young, this kind of thing needs to be taught."

Li Yan looked at Zhu Houzhao's legs with an obscene expression, and his expression shook a little.

"Forehead......" Zhu Houzhao's face darkened.

"You bastard! I'm not asking you to go to the cave for me! I'm asking you to think for me what I'm going to need when I get married! Zhu Houzhao was unusually angry, and his face turned red.

Seeing this, Li Yan's expression became even more ridiculous, and he pointed at Zhu Houzhao and asked in surprise. "Your Majesty, you ...... Isn't that nothing? ”

After speaking, Li Yan smiled even more cheerfully......

Zhu Houzhao's face turned green directly, and he took out a copy of the Spring Palace from his arms and threw it directly in front of Li Yan.

"Who said it wouldn't, it's all said here, just take off your pants!"

Hearing this, Li Yan's face was a little unbearable, why is the handwriting of this Spring Palace so familiar? It seems that I have such a book too?

"Your Majesty, who gave this to you?"

"Tang Bohu."

"Hmph...... Tang Bohu, this lewd ......" Li Yan snorted twice.

There were four joys in ancient life: a long drought and a rainstorm, and a foreign land. The cave room spends candle night, when the gold list is inscribed.

This four great joys are also suitable now, but this Zhengde Emperor who lives in the Forbidden City, every day he has fine clothes and food, and the people of the whole country are eager to come over to serve him, so Zhu Houzhao is famous, so naturally he doesn't need the title of the gold list, his hometown...... The entire Ming Dynasty is his, so he will not be exiled in a foreign land.

It's a little awkward.

However, they also have to experience the "candle night in the cave room" in their lives, and the marriage ceremony of ordinary people is festive, so the emperor who dominates the world, and it must not be like that? It's just a small thing to celebrate, right?

Li Yan was thinking about this problem, so Li Yan didn't even have to approve the official documents, but found someone to write them, and he himself was reading the classics of all the emperors in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

As early as the Zhou Dynasty, the "Book of Rites" determined six etiquettes in the process from marriage proposal to completion of marriage, namely:

Nacai, the man's family invited the matchmaker to go to the woman's house to propose, and after the woman's family agreed to propose marriage, the man's family prepared a gift to propose.

Ask the name, the man's family asks the matchmaker to ask the woman's name and date of birth, so as to measure whether the union between the man and the woman is appropriate.

Najib, after the man's family received an auspicious omen, prepared a gift to inform the woman's family and decided to enter into a marriage.

The man's family gave the woman's family a dowry gift.

During the invitation period, the man's family chooses the marriage date, prepares the gift and informs the woman's family, and asks for her consent; Welcome, the groom goes to the woman's house to marry.

In order to prevent his relatives from interfering in politics, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, set a rule for future generations: from the unmarried girls aged thirteen to sixteen, they were selected as concubines and queens. The emperor who had already married a wife before ascending the throne did not hold a make-up wedding after ascending the throne, but only held a ceremony to canonize the empress. If you are not married when you ascend the throne, you need to hold a big wedding and canonize the queen and concubine.

However, the sixth emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not abide by the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the Empress Dowager Zhang, after careful consideration, made a decisive decision: the eldest daughter of the Ministry of Industry Shangshu was the queen, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Hanlin Academy had to agree.

Subsequently, the Hanlin Academy was responsible for drafting documents, the Ministry of Rites was responsible for making books and making treasures, and together with the Department of Rites and Supervisors, the Inner Government and other departments, prepared various supplies, and Qin Tianjian began to calculate the auspicious days of good days in order to "perform the six rites".

On the day of Nacai and asking for names, the emperor dressed up and made a grand appearance in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace! The propaganda official held the edict in his hand, stood on the east side of His Majesty, announced the edict loudly, appointed the two angels of the principal and the deputy, and went to the woman's house to ask for the name. In the midst of the music, two angels held Fengjie and Fengzhao, led by the honor guard and drum band, and rushed to the woman's house.

At this time, all the members of the woman's family were already waiting at the gate, and after they accepted the gifts, they presented the "table" with the daughter's name, resume, birthday and other items to the angel, and set up a banquet to entertain the angel. After the angel led the team back to the Forbidden City, he handed over the "festival" and "table" to the celebrant and eunuch, and the task was successfully completed. The celebrant and eunuch held the festival and table, and went to the Qianqing Palace to restore the "imperial order".

Subsequently, the emperor "informed" the princes and ministers of Nacai and asked about the name.

When it is time to perform the Najib and Nazheng rituals, the corresponding ceremony is still held in the palace, and angels are sent to carry gifts and relevant documents to the Ministry of Works.

The emperor's reward is not only for the woman's whole family, but even for the family members and slaves. After Najib and Na Zheng, this family affair was finally finalized, even if the emperor had three long and two short before entering the cave room, the queen could only break her teeth and swallow her stomach. Not the other way around.

After the five salutes in front, the highlight is to welcome you. Ordinary people generally take the bridegroom with a welcoming procession to pick up the bride at his father-in-law's house. When it came to the emperor, because of his supreme status, he changed it to send a minister with children and daughters to be a representative to welcome his relatives.

The palace has long been lit up, and all major palaces are equipped with firecrackers and large red candles with the word double happiness. The royal roads are covered with red felt.

The guard of honor and the drum band are in front of the welcoming procession, the greeting messenger is in the center, followed by the welcoming officials, eunuchs, and guards, and they go out of the noon gate, together with the queen's honor guard, carry a large number of gifts, and go straight to the Qian Mansion. The woman's family led the whole family to kneel at the gate to receive the welcoming team. The greeting messenger shouted the edict.

The future queen is wearing the queen's dress, wearing a phoenix crown and a xiaxia veil, kneeling to receive the gold book, Jinbao, after the auspicious time arrives, the group blows and blows back to the Forbidden City, the queen is sent to Kunning Palace to worship heaven and earth, and make a big gift. The emperor's wedding was officially completed.

……

…………

The rituals of the Ming Dynasty were a bit cumbersome, so in Li Yan's opinion, these should be deleted parts, as for how to do it......

Li Yan believes that among these ceremonies, the most solemn ones are the "canonization ceremony" and the "welcome ceremony".

On the day of the canonization of the queen, the whole country must wear festive costumes and put up lanterns. The red carpet will be laid on the royal road in the palace, and the door gods and couplets will be renewed; All palace gates and palace gates in the noon gate should be hung with red lights; Taihe Gate, Taihe Palace, Qianqing Palace, Kunning Palace should hang double happiness word color silk.

The day before the canonization ceremony, the emperor sent officials to pay homage to the heavens, the earth, and the temple.

On the day of the canonization ceremony, the Taihe Hall set up festival cases, book cases, and treasure cases, and the emperor was set up outside the palace. The emperor first went to Cining Palace to salute the Queen Mother, and then went to the Taihe Hall to read the book and treasure, and then ascended to the throne. The chief and deputy envoys led the welcoming team to the queen's mansion.

After that, he blew and beat and married the queen back, and after Zhu Hou invited the ministers to the banquet as usual, Li Yan decided to give Zhu Houzhao a only

A haunted house that only has a folk.

But to make a hole for the emperor...... Is it really suitable?

Li Yan was a little entangled, on the one hand, he wanted to surprise Zhu Houzhao, but ...... Those civil officials will definitely not do it! On a good day for people to get married, what are you doing in someone's house in the middle of the night!!?
