People waited and waited until three o'clock, and finally the earth-shaking twenty-one royal cannons sounded on the official road in the east. The pen "Fun" Pavilion was followed www.biquge.info a group of salute soldiers wearing gold armor, red armor, and colorful helmets, riding yellow war horses, holding spears and flags from a distance, and laying out a defensive line on both sides of the official road.

I saw that every twenty zhang away from the road, it is a color building, on both sides of the color building, three steps and a post, five steps and a sentry. The officers standing under the Cai Lou were all dressed in bright light armor and covered with red robes, and their hands were pressed on the hilt of their swords, standing still, and the sergeants were all wearing new battle robes and armor, which made them even more majestic and solemn.

Suddenly, twenty-one salutes rang out from the side of the Shenwu Gate. The bell and drum tower on the city gate was the first to ring the bell and drum, and the temples and Taoist temples also responded in unison, singing and harmonizing with each other from afar. Almost at the same time, the painted horns that had been guarded by the road for a long time rang out in unison, and the military music played a triumphant song of victory.

Hearing the sound of triumph, five thousand royal cavalry drew their swords together, urging the war horses under the crotch to raise their hooves and step down in unison.

At this moment, the honor guard of the triumphant army finally came out. Thirty-six Great Qin Dragon Flags, twenty-four Great Qin Army Flags, eighteen Prince Wucheng Flags, and eighteen Forbidden Army Flags were led by ninety-six forbidden army captains...... These captains are all from the nine forbidden armies, all of whom have made meritorious contributions, and they are all majestic and high-spirited.

Followed by the fifty-four Nine Dragons Qugai, beaten by the sergeant on foot, the golden color of the water. Behind the canopy was a police entry flag, and one hundred and twenty sergeants held golden locks, lying melons, standing melons, lock axes, large knives, red stirrups, and yellow stirrups......

Such a large formation made the people who watched it fascinated, but they couldn't help but be dizzy, and said in their hearts: 'Why haven't you seen the generalissimo king yet?' ’

Just when the people were impatient, a group of mighty knights wearing black armor, riding black horses, wearing red robes, and wearing black masks on their faces appeared, and the people immediately cheered, and the atmosphere suddenly became much warmer...... They all know that Prince Wucheng is still black, and the appearance of black means that his king is not far away!

Sure enough, I saw eighty-one knights in black robes and soft armor slowly driving over with a roofless royal chariot. The chariot was made very wide, and at the four corners of the chariot stood four escort generals. They are all dressed in generals' uniforms, holding the hilt of their swords, holding their heads high, like the four King Kongs of Nantianmen...... These four people are Huangfu Zhanwen, Yang Wenyu, Shen Qing and Shen Bing!

The center of the cart is a flag platform, the platform is inserted with a flag that is more than three zhang high, red tassels, bright yellow borders, the golden flag is embroidered with a mighty and noble tiger, and there is a line of big characters written under the tiger's head: 'Prince Wucheng of Great Qin, Generalissimo Wang Qin'!

On the banner platform, under the arch guard of the four flag guards, Qin Lei wore the prince's robe, holding the sword of the Son of Heaven, standing with a solemn face, and there were bright yellow runes and axes behind him.

At this moment, thousands of riders followed him, surrounded him, and guarded him. The people of Haiti are looking up to him, fragrant flowers and wine, looking at the dust and dancing. He took a step forward, and people were like lodging rice fields, throwing themselves to the ground, not daring to peep.

This scenery, this pomp, this extraordinary glory, since ancient times, except for the emperor who has served all over the world, who has ever enjoyed it? He looked in front of his eyes and saw the dragon flag covering the sun; Looking around, the eyes are full of Jin Ge splendor. Who in the world can not revel in it and cannot extricate himself?

But Qin Lei's face was solemn, unmoving, not only did he not have a little joy, but his brows were tightly locked, so that the people on the side couldn't help but say: 'The prince is so cool......

Qin Lei was indeed a little excited, but he tried his best to suppress his excitement, he stared at the capital that was getting closer and closer, and said in a voice like a morning bell in his heart: "Everything is false, everything is an illusion, everything today is given by others." But whatever is given by others, there will be a day when it will be taken away...... "He didn't want to let himself get lost in this unprecedented courtesy, forget his identity—although he is a prince, he is only a courtier in the final analysis!"

'This is what I want, and this is not what I want!' Qin Lei repeatedly admonished himself, and unconsciously, the carriage slowly stopped.

Qin Lei came back to his senses and glanced ahead, only to see the princes and nobles, hundreds of officials and ministers, and even nobles and women in the capital, all of whom were pouring out of their nests, waiting on both sides of the avenue. Seeing his banner coming from a distance, everyone below the emperor's uncle, Prince Jia, all turned over and knelt on the ground, and the black crow knelt down in a large area, and shouted in unison: "Congratulations to Prince Wucheng and His Royal Highness the Generalissimo King Triumph!" ”

It is said that with Qin Lei's identity and Qin Lei's merits, it is natural to accept this bow, but in the face of the dignitaries and nobles in Beijing, how dare he hold it up? Isn't that a public enemy?

Qin Lei hurriedly jumped out of the car, helped up the trembling imperial uncle, and said loudly: "Everyone, please get up, it is my great Qin's responsibility to protect the family and defend the country, and the credit belongs to everyone, don't kill Xiao Wang!" When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but have a good impression of Qin Lei...... They were also worried that His Royal Highness would take the opportunity to take the opportunity to get off the stage for them, the so-called sedan chair was carried by everyone, and everyone saluted Qin Lei again, and thanked him loudly: "Thank you, Lord Wang." Only then did they stand up one after another, which can be said to have given him enough face.

When everyone got up after the salute, fireworks and firecrackers roared on both sides of the road, and the incense mist was lingering and ringing non-stop. One after another, the flow of people in the color shops is like a tide, and thousands of people are crowded; In order to see the demeanor of Prince Wucheng, the people crowded over and hugged him, screaming, scattering flowers and fruits, like a dream drunk and crazy!

The originally orderly scene suddenly became chaotic, and the soldiers of Kyoto Prefecture and Bingma Temple, who were responsible for maintaining order, had to arm in arm, shoulder to shoulder, and the people who were out of control were isolated outside the road. All of them were tired and sweaty, complaining bitterly, and complaining in their hearts: 'Why don't you finish walking!' ’

In fact, according to the plan drawn up by the Ministry of Rites, this unprecedented army honor guard should have arrived at the Shenwu Gate at the beginning of noon, but the crowd completely disrupted the advance deployment. It wasn't until the end of noon that he arrived in front of the Shenwu Gate, Qin Lei's vision suddenly widened a lot, except for the eighty-one eunuchs in front of the Shenwu Gate carrying a golden luanyu, there was no one or anything.

Qin Lei stood on the shorter Wang chariot, and Emperor Tianyou sat on the taller Luanyu, the two of them were just at eye level, looking at each other from a distance, their eyes were complicated and difficult to understand.

The field became quiet, and both dignitaries and ordinary people kowtowed their heads and did not dare to look up.

After staring at the second child for a while, Qin Lei suddenly realized that he shouldn't stand stupidly like this anymore, so he quickly jumped out of the king's car and walked quickly towards Luan Yu. Immediately, the joy of His Majesty was great...... In the left and right side doorways, 360 court musicians played noble music with yellow bells, and sang auspicious hymns in a vague manner.

Seeing his young brother striding towards him, Emperor Tianyou, who was still young, smiled, and with the support of the eunuch, he walked down slowly, and also walked briskly towards Qin Lei.

In the music stage, the two finally met and looked at each other with excited expressions. Emperor Tianyou stretched out his hand and personally untied Qin Lei's battle robe, which could be regarded as removing the armor for him in form. The excuse of 'armor is on the body, forgive you can't salute' has no effect, Qin Lei had to bow to the ground, to perform the big bow of three kneels and nine kowtows.

But after only kowtowing, he was held down by Emperor Tianyou and prevented him from continuing his journey. The emperor's gentle voice sounded in front of the city gate: "I have already given the fifth brother that you will not worship in front of you, except for one for the ancestors and ancestors, the rest of the two kneels and eight bows are not necessary." ”

Qin Lei said with a frightened face: "How can this be done?" ”

"Why can't this be?" Emperor Tianyou laughed and said, "I still want to crown you as the king side by side, brother, don't make a fuss." As he spoke, he glanced at the generals kneeling behind Qin Lei: "Generals saddle horses, it's really hard for you, get up and go to the banquet with my inner court!" He took Qin Lei with one hand, and motioned for the generals to get up with the other.

The nobles saw that the emperor dragged Prince Wucheng straight up to Luanyu and entered the city from the emperor's exclusive road, so they all stood up, each found their own car, and followed into the city and into the palace for the banquet.

As for the people who watched the excitement...... Of course, no one will take care of the food.
