Outside the Fengtian Gate, there are 12 dragon flags on the left and right, and 12 people are used as standard-bearers; The tower of Fengtianmen City is also full of dragon flags, and the brocade guards set up cloud disks on it.

On the Dan Majesty in the Qianqing Gate, the Jinyi Guard Captain Bu Huang Lu, Yu Bao Building, Leopard Tail Dragon Pole, Letter Flag, Missionary Flag, Stop Flag, Jiang Yin Flag, Halberd Flag, Ge Yu, and Yi Qi are equal to both sides.

In front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace, there is a table set up by the Honglu Temple; The three gates are all open, and there are eight Han generals with Ming armor and halberds equipped with ceremonial knives and halberds; The ministers of civil and military affairs all wore court clothes, and thus lined up outside the Qianqing Gate.

In the Qianqing Palace, the decoration is new, but also exudes the smell of paint, the palace is placed in the middle of the carved gold throne, the throne is covered with ochre yellow cloth treasure case in front, there are three jade seals on it, there are two female officials holding pheasant fan and Zhu Tuan fan respectively on both sides of the throne; There is Honglu Temple in the east of the hall to set up the edict on the top, put the edict of Dengji, and there is the Zhonghe Shaole set up by the Jiaofang Division in the west of the hall.

Ye Xiang held Yugui in his hand, and sat upright on the throne in the middle of the throne in a crown dress tailored for him, not daring to move, because the slightest hesitation would make the beads on his head shake. Previously, under the leadership of the ceremonial officer of Honglu Temple, he wore a slash and went to Zhu Youxiao's spirit and Shenzong and Empress Xiaoduanxian to make a big salute.

The one that Ye Xiang wears on his head is called the crown, which is a round frame, and the top is a paulownia wood plate, the front is round and the back, and the front and back are each hung with twelve beads, and each one uses pearls and red, blue, green, white and yellow, a total of twelve; He wears a black robe, embroidered with a red sun on his right shoulder, a white full moon embroidered on his left shoulder, stars and mountains on his back, and dragons and insects on his sleeves; The waist is a leather belt, with a jade pendant and a large hanging ribbon; The foot pedals are red [xì] (red shoes), the head is auspicious cloud-shaped, decorated with black tassels, and the edges are yellow and silky. This was the full set of crowns prescribed by the Ming Dynasty until the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Looking out from the throne, because of the treasure curtain hanging on the door, the inside and outside are blocked, and I can only see the crowds outside the Qianqing Palace, which is not real.

"Whip!"

This was the shouting of the deacon of Honglu Temple outside the hall, and then there was a "pop" outside the Qianqing door...... Syllable...... "Snap ......" whip, a total of three sounds, crisp and loud, very penetrating.

The whip is the etiquette of major events, just like the salute in later generations, also known as the whip and the whip, the courtiers must be quiet when they hear the whip, although no one dares to make noise on such a solemn occasion.

When hundreds of civil and military officials heard the whip, they knew that the ceremony was about to officially begin, and silently waited for the deacon's command.

"One worship...... Goodbye...... Three Worships...... Four Worships...... Kneel...... A prostration...... Prostrate again...... Three prostrations...... from"

Under the loud guidance of the deacons, all civil and military officials obeyed the orders, and performed the rites of the king five times and three times according to the etiquette.

Ye Xiang sat on the throne, although he was not as domineering as in the Imperial Palace, but he was also arrogant, from now on, this empire will be under his leadership, and all countries will come to court; From then on, millions of soldiers will strictly carry out his orders, and the sword will be invincible; From then on, 50 million compatriots will be guided by him to get rid of historical fate and become rich and arrogant......

The deacon of Honglu Temple shouted outside the hall for instructions, "The ministers ask the emperor to issue an edict." ”

Shang Bao Si Yuan Keli held the jade seal, accompanied by Lu Shou, went to the east of the palace to personally stamp the "Treasure of the Emperor Fengtian" on the edict of Dengji; Then Qian Xiangkun of the Hanlin Academy was awarded the edict to Sun Ruyou, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Sun Ruyou knelt down to receive the edict, placed it in the cloud disk, and came out of the left door of the hall, all of which was quiet and solemn.

Then the deacon shouted, "After the salute, the whip ......." After three whips, Ye Xiang was welcomed to the Heart Cultivation Palace, during which he said at the beginning, "No declaration, no congratulations." Nothing else.

After Ye Xiang entered the Yuehua Gate, the hundred officials withdrew from the Qianqing Gate one after another and went to the Fengtian Gate.
