Luan Yi is the emperor, and Cai Yan is undoubtedly the best candidate for the queen.
However, to Luan Yi's surprise and even the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, Cai Yan refused to accept the title of queen and asked Luan Yi to give up the throne to Diao Chan, Zhen Mi or Yang Wan.
At first, Luan Yi thought that Cai Yan was making a false concession, but after some interviews, he knew that Cai Yan was sincere.
Cai Yan said to him with affection: In the first half of her life, since she married into the Luan family, she worked hard for the Luan family, and brought up Xiao Shimeng little by little. Now that Luan Shimeng is married, at the age of forty, she is also a good year when she can give a place to a woman like Shengyuan, she doesn't want to let her family and children bind her anymore, she doesn't want to be locked in the palace gate, she wants to live for herself, show her knowledge and revenge to the world, and make a name for herself. She begged Luan Yi to find a place to go—preferably a barren place to let her be a parent official.
Cai Yan's remark was not agreed with by many civil and military officials in the DPRK and China, but Luan Yi deliberately understood.
He knows that Cai Yan was born for art, and for a person with literary and artistic sentiments, he often yearns for freedom the most. Although the position of the queen seems to be high and powerful, it is a shackle of the soul for Cai Yan - she doesn't want to be shackled in the tall gate of the sect leader's mansion and be a woman living under the blessing of Luan Yifu. I don't want to be a imprisoned phoenix, but I want to soar into the sky and compete with Panlong and Qilin.
As a husband who loves Cai Yan deeply, Luan Yi naturally doesn't want to bind Cai Yan's heart with worldly affairs, and he especially doesn't want to see Cai Yan's melancholy and lost eyes. Therefore, he decisively withdrew his fate and dispelled the idea of sealing Cai Yan.
However, he rejected Cai Yan's request to be transferred to an official, and the reason for refusal was only five words, "I can't do without you!" ”
Women are inherently strange creatures that distinguish them from men. Cai Yan, who had vowed to go to a remote area to take revenge, after listening to these five words with a thousand words, the stone in his heart melted away in an instant. She nodded with tears in her eyes, "Then I will continue to stay with Your Majesty as a confidential secretary." ”
"Don't call me Your Majesty, I will always be your Ziqi."
After a deep kiss, there was a cloud and rain.
After the rain and the sky cleared, Luan Yi thought about it carefully and thought of a compromise solution. In order to elevate Cai Yan's status among the wives and concubines after ascending the throne, although Luan Yi dismissed the idea of making her the queen, he decided to crown her as Empress Zhide.
The so-called seal and canonization sound similar, and they are often used in conjunction with the word "canonization", but their specific meanings are different. The so-called seal, as the text intended, is like taking a seat with the right number, labeling someone and letting him play a certain role. For the queen, whoever is named the queen will be labeled as the master of the harem and play the role of the emperor's wife.
The difference between the book and the cover is raised, and the book is also called the registration of the book. A person who is registered as a queen does not have to be labeled behind her, nor does she have to play any role, but her name will be entered into the daily living documents of the royal family, and the cloth, grain, rice, charcoal, etc. received every month will be the same as the queen, and her name and deeds will also be recorded in history as the queen.
In summary, the person who is registered as a queen, although not a real queen, enjoys the same treatment as a queen.
And because Luan Yi has not yet ascended the throne, and the position of the harem is still high, Cai Yan, who is Empress Zhide, has become the first queen of the Holy Chinese Empire, which will leave a strong mark in the history books of the Chinese Empire. At the same time, after the real queen is crowned, because Cai Yan and the queen are at the same level, everyone in the harem must respect her as much as the queen. In this way, Cai Yan's position can be strengthened.
According to tradition, only after the empress died of illness or was executed for a serious crime would she receive the "canonization" of the middle canon. In other words, you can only get the book after leaving office. In both cases, the deceased queen can often get a more decent book, such as Xiaozhuang and Xiaoxian. Those who are condemned to death are either not canonized, or even if they do, they are derogatory.
Cai Yan neither died of illness nor committed crimes, but he was canonized by Empress Zhide, and he was the only outlier in Chinese civilization for thousands of years.
In order to give a reasonable explanation for Cai Yan's acceptance of the canonization and not being sealed, Luan Yi first praised Cai Yan's talent, saying that although Empress Zhide is a daughter, she is talented and rich...... He loves his talent very much, and he is determined to endure the pain of cutting his love, and does not let Cai Yan slaughter chickens to manage the small harem, but promotes him and entrusts him with important tasks.
In fact, Luan Yi really wants to raise Cai Yan's official position a few notches.
Historically, after Cai Yan was plundered to the grassland by the Huns, he created the famous "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji" because of his longing for his hometown, which realized the integration of Han music and Hu music while expressing his emotions. In this life, under the protection of Luan Yi, Cai Yan's tragic fate has not been repeated, but just as affairs have their two sides, Cai Yan won comfort at the same time, but the "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji", which made her admired by everything, also missed her, and at the same time disappeared the God-given opportunity for the integration of Han music and Hu music.
Therefore, in order to redeem this worthy historical event, Luan Yi decided to let Cai Yan serve as the ceremonial squire of the future empire, specializing in improving the "music" system in the imperial court's ritual music system, trying to introduce the Hu people musical instruments worthy of application into the land of China, and learn from each other's strengths to make up for the lack of string music in the three types of instruments in the history of the Han Dynasty: orchestra, string, and percussion.
Then he tried to compose a beautiful music that could depict the magnificent rivers and mountains of the empire with a new orchestra that had been fused.
In this regard, Luan Yi set a simple and magnificent tone, he named this song "Ni Dress Feather Clothes", and Cai Yan was responsible for the style and choreography of the tune.
Cai Yan saw that Luan Yi arranged her favorite thing to do, and when she smiled, she accompanied Luan Yi to do a round of things that Luan Yi liked to do.
After the fish and water, Cai Yan lay on the bed, supported his face with one hand, and said to Luan Yi: "Although my wife knows the rhythm of music, she has no knowledge of choreographing dance, why don't you let her handle this matter?" ”
Luan Yi immediately guessed that Cai Yan wanted to intercede for Diao Chan, "Do you want me to cancel the grounding of Cicada?" ”
"Yes! Sister Cicada has been imprisoned for more than a month, and she still has to go to church every morning to work, and she has to copy scriptures until late at night...... Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, I am afraid that she will be tired if she continues like this. ”
"There are only those who are idle, and there is no tiredness." Luan Yi's face flashed with anger, and he let out a long breath, "Yan'er, Yan'er, what should I say about you." It's always going to be so kind. ”
"I have a husband who loves me so much, who can make me suffer!" Cai Yan said with a smile. "Can that Ziqi exonerate Cicada from her guilt and let her help me?"
"That's it, that's it! It's up to you! ”
……
The fifth day of the fifth month of the eighteenth year of the Shengyuan Dynasty is the day when Luan Yi ascended the throne. As early as a week ago, believers from all over the Han Dynasty who wanted to witness the enthronement of the sect leader poured into Luoyang, filling more than 100 inns in Luoyang City. Many business-minded businessmen vacated their mansions and rented them to people who came to watch the ceremony, and moved to their homes in the countryside outside the city. But even so, the people still did not have enough to live, so they had to stay in the factories and workshops in the city that were temporarily rented out late at night.
So, on the day of his accession to the throne, the streets and alleys of Luoyang City were crowded with people, according to visual observations, at least more than 500,000 people, all of whom were beaming, dressed in festive costumes, holding the sect leader's favorite lotus flower in their hands - it is also the national flower of the future new empire, long live the sect leader.
The children walked around in the crowd, or holding sugar gourds, or holding colorful windmills, like flowers and butterflies, "The leader is the emperor, and the people have a good life!" ”
What's more, fireworks and firecrackers are lit along the street, and the "crackling" sound will create a festive atmosphere in Luoyang City.
In addition to Luoyang, Qi, Qing, Hebei, You, He, Xu, Henan, Jing, Yang, Liang, Si, Jiao, and all parts of the Qiang Autonomous Prefecture held grand ceremonies under the auspices of local churches and officials.
On this day, for the land of China, joy and joy occupy the main theme.
Three months before the enthronement ceremony, Xi Zhicai, in the name of the Holy Chinese Empire, sent the news of the new emperor's imminent accession to the throne to the vassal states of the former Han Dynasty.
Therefore, on the fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth month of May, a lot of envoys from various countries came to Luoyang City, such as the leader of the Qiang King Kejia and the prison sister Qiang, Ku Dong, visited in person, and the Hun Lao Shan Yu Hu Chuquan sent the Zuo Xian King to humble himself to offer generous gifts, and the Da Yue clan and Da Wan congratulated the new emperor one after another...... One by one, wearing national costumes, they flashed in front of Luan Yi, and he was dazzled, and after receiving them one by one, he turned his head and couldn't remember seeing those people.
However, although Luan Yi couldn't remember which envoys he had seen, he firmly remembered that those vassal states did not send envoys to watch the ceremony: Xianbei, Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, and Qiuzi...... Sooner or later, these countries will be completely erased by him in the map of "The Territory of the Kingdom under the Heavens".
When the auspicious time of the three quarters of the hour arrived, Luan Yi walked out of the main hall in the sound of the herald's orders, stepped on the south wall of the palace in a thousand calls, and stood in front of the three animal platforms under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of eyes. On this day, he wore a golden silk dragon robe that glittered in the sun, majestic and elegant, like a celestial man behind the billowing cigarette.
The people in the audience were stunned, and they knelt on the ground and shouted long live. Nearly 500,000 people kowtowed at the same time, the momentum was huge, the entire ground of Luoyang was covered with long black hair, and Luan Yi's body was illuminated by the black reverent gaze.
Where have the foreign envoys who came to watch the ceremony of the Han Dynasty seen such a warm scene, the people with their hearts to Luan Yi were full of light, and those with different hearts were shocked, and sighed secretly: The current Huaxia is no longer the weak Han court in the past, and the new emperor will have to change the rules in the future.
