Chapter 497: Yuan Zheng Dynasty
After the New Year's Eve, the important ministers of the court who stayed up all night to "keep the New Year" were ready to go to court again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThis time is different, it is a great court ceremony, only once a year. According to the custom, after the completion of this court, the court will start a holiday, and it will not be held again until the sixteenth day of the first month.
This is also why these officials dare to "keep the New Year" and go back to make up for sleep after a morning, and although this dynasty is complicated, it is also a form of going through the motions. It is nothing more than to demonstrate the righteousness and legitimacy of the founding of the Great Shun, as well as praying for good weather in the coming year.
Before the end of the day, the civil and military officials were already dressed in court clothes and waiting outside the Daqing Palace. At this time, various familiar officials will inevitably greet each other with joy and say some auspicious words.
And a group of foreign envoys also consciously lined up on the side according to the strength of the country. Because of the language barrier, they are all communicating with each other in Chinese. Seeing this scene in Yelu Renxian's eyes, he couldn't help frowning. The revival of Dashun, I'm afraid the last thing I want to see is the Liao State. The grievances between the two countries have continued since the establishment of the Great Shun Dynasty, and the grievances are entangled, and no one can tell who has the upper hand. Over the years, it seems that the Liao State is strong, but the battle under the city of Youzhou has beaten the confidence of the Liao State to the ground.
There is still a moment left before the time of Mao, and there are already strong inner servants ready to drive, set up 3,350 people to fight Huang Lu, and use the Taichang Yale Palace frame to sing. Then I saw Lu Chengqi and Empress Zhou Zhiruo's royal chariot slowly coming.
After getting out of the car, Lu Chengqi, the son of Dashun, was dressed in a dragon gown, wearing a crown of heaven, black shoes, holding a ceremonial robe, and Zhou Zhiruo, whose face was pasted with beaded flowers, burned incense and sacrificed to the sky in front of the Daqing Palace. After Feng Chengping, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, finished reading the lengthy sacrificial speech, the sacrifice was completed.
Subsequently, Lu Chengqi and Queen Zhou Zhiruo walked into the Daqing Hall together. After the emperor and queen entered the Daqing Palace, there were four imperial guards dressed in Jieyin standing in the corners of the four halls, these are temporary positions, and there is a very nice name, called the general of the town hall. As soon as the court meeting ended, this position was gone. But this kind of honor is something that many people can't hope for.
In the Daqing Palace, the Dharma Driving Staff has already been lined up in the palace. First of all, the envoys of various countries, according to the strength of the country, Lu Chengqi also gave them enough face, and rewarded them with a lot of property, but most of them were embroidery and Shu brocade.
Subsequently, hundreds of officials wore crown court clothes, and even all the people from all walks of life were dressed in scholarly green shirts and took their positions. These lifters, wearing a double crown on their heads, a white robe and a green undershirt, and wearing cloud shoes on their feet, are the highest specifications that a scholar can wear.
Lu Chengqi and Zhou Zhiruo sat at the head of the Daqing Palace, and the civil and military officials took their positions in turn and congratulated the emperor. This is a cumbersome matter, the civil and military say that it is a hundred officials, but in fact, the number is far more than a hundred, at least more than 300 people. By the time they had finished their greetings, it was already halfway over.
Immediately afterwards, the town table played by the state capitals to Lu Chengqi was actually a list of gifts. The servant under the door played the auspicious table, Lu Chengqi sneered in his heart, these officials are so happy, what unicorn appeared, Phoenix Laiyi and Huanglong appeared, and so on. In their opinion, the giraffe is the unicorn, and when they see the mutated peacock, they say that it is a phoenix, and as for the yellow dragon, it is just a Chinese sturgeon.
Although Lu Chengqi was disdainful, he was still expressionless on the surface, and said: "Since there are so many auspicious rui, let it benefit one party, I just need to hear and hear." ā
As soon as this sentence came out, it was shocking that the squire of the sect stammered and said incoherently. He can be regarded as anxious, and there are still many auspicious things on the table, but he immediately stopped talking and didn't elaborate on it.
After the servant finished speaking, the household department Shangshu Lin Zhen played the tributes of the states, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Feng Chengping played the tributes of the feudal states. Originally, there was Taishi Lingyun Xiangrui, but when he saw Lu Chengqi's expression, he knew that he didn't need to come out to speak. Lu Chengqi saw that they had finished playing, and said, "The guests have worked hard, so let's retreat." ā
His personal little eunuch hurriedly said: "Please come and envoy for a while, and live in Chongyuan Palace." ā
Lu Chengqi took Zhou Zhiruo's hand, and after leaving the East Gate, the hundred officials retreated and went to Chongyuan Palace. At this time, Lu Chengqi and Zhou Zhiruo were going to Gyeongbok Hall to pay New Year's greetings to the Empress Dowager Zunci. It's just that everything has to be done in the morning, and this New Year's greeting seems to be a formality. Lu Chengqi said to the Empress Dowager Liu in accordance with the etiquette system: "Yuan Zheng Qizuo, everything is new. Her Majesty the Empress Dowager Fu Wei will be blessed when she is in time and rest with the sky. The Empress Dowager Liu also replied in accordance with the etiquette system: "The new one is the same as the emperor." ā
After that, Lu Chengqi said with some embarrassment: "Queen Mother, I want to go to Chongyuan Palace, and then I will come over with Zitong to greet the Queen Mother." ā
Liu has long been familiar with the court meeting system, and said with a smile: "My son is busy today, so I don't have to come to Gyeongbok Palace, it is enough for the mourning family to know that my son has this intention." ā
Lu Chengqi shushed the cold again and asked for warmth, and then left in a hurry. On the Chongyuan Palace, the division has already been furnished, and the hundred officials are already in place. After Emperor Lu Chengqi came out and took the throne, the ministers worshipped and said three long live: "Yuan Zhengling Festival, not winning Daqing, I would like to live tens of millions of years." This is called "longevity", which means that Lu Chengqi can live a long life.
Lu Chengqi returned the salute and said: "The auspiciousness of the new appointment is the same as the public." ā
At this time, the eunuch in the palace began to pour wine for Lu Chengqi. The banquet began, which is also a Chinese characteristic, and any conference is inseparable from eating and drinking. Of course, considering that Lu Chengqi was not strong enough to drink, the wine that the personal little eunuch poured Lu Chengqi was actually just a glass of warm water. At this time, Yang Daoqi, the Taishi who was invited to the column, ordered hundreds of officials to pour wine at the same time to honor the emperor in his esteemed capacity. After saluting four wines like this, Taiguan and Shangshi (the classification of the imperial kitchen, originally the Taiguan Department and the Shangshi Department, and the imperial chef is called by the official signature) began to bring food to the hundred officials. There are also singing and dancing performances in the middle, all of which are singers raised by the court, which are different from the folk. After nine glasses of wine, the birthday ceremony is over. Lu Chengqi said in his heart: "I have finally completed today's task." ā
Seeing the little emperor get up and leave, the hundred officials also got up and saluted: "Your Majesty, Holy Ann! ā
Back in the Renming Palace, Lu Chengqi didn't wait for Gao Hao to sing the promise "The emperor has arrived", and shouted before entering the door: "This court meeting is too tiring!" ā
Zhou Zhiruo heard his voice, and hurriedly greeted him: "Welcome Your Majesty!" ā
Lu Chengqi waved back left and right, hugged Zhou Zhiruo back to the inner hall, and sat down in front of the dragon and phoenix table together. Lu Chengqi was so hungry that he grabbed the pastries on the table and ate them all the time, and complained inarticulate while eating: "Zitong, are you stupid when you say the imperial dining room?" The whole banquet is not good for eating, and you can't starve people to death? ā
Zhou Zhiruo smiled when she heard this: "Shouldn't Your Majesty have been prepared in advance?" If you are hungry, the concubine will call someone to go to the imperial dining room to cook some food. ā
Lu Chengqi took her hand, swallowed a mouthful of pastries, and said with a full burp: "No need, I am fifty percent full." Let's make up for sleep first, it really hurts to stay up late! ā
Zhou Zhiruo obediently dressed him and served him to sleep on the bed. Lu Chengqi is really tired, last night's "New Year's Celebration" night, rubbing with Zhou Zhiruo's ears and temples, but there was no substantial progress, no wonder he is so tired today. It's not the body that's tired, it's the heart that's tired! Zhou Zhiruo doesn't know how attractive she is!
Looking at Lu Chengqi, who was sleeping like a baby, Zhou Zhiruo also lay down gently, lest she wake him up...... (To be continued.) )
