"The clouds are rotten, and the clouds are tangled. The sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and the moon are shining. ”

The loud voices of countless soldiers sounded, and before the Zen ceremony began, tens of thousands of forbidden soldiers began to sing in unison. According to Mao Xi and Fang Xuanling, who presided over the ceremony, and other officials of Shangshu Province and the Ministry of Rites, this chorus belongs to the ancient rites, and the song is called Qingyun Song. The meaning of these four repeated words is actually that the brilliant clouds floating in the sky are gathered together like pieces of beautiful silk, and the splendor of the earth given by the sun and the moon will continue day by day. Thus singing the praises of Zen in the new emperor is like starting a new day under the new sun.

Chen Kefu only smiled and said nothing when he heard it, whether this is an ancient rite or not, anyway, it doesn't matter if this kind of thing is similar to singing praises of virtue, everyone singing can make the prestige of the new dynasty and the new emperor more vigorous. Just like this Zen ceremonial ceremony, even if he doesn't go through this ceremony, he is still the emperor. But in such a dynasty that pays attention to orthodoxy, especially when the world has not yet been decided, such a Zen canon is equivalent to receiving everything from the previous dynasty. Not only to receive the orthodoxy and wealth officials they left behind, but also to include the hearts of the people of the world.

After the chorus that lasted for half an hour ended, it was the most important moment of the whole ceremony.

Chen Kefu ascended to the high platform where Yang Gao was, Sui Diangao got up, put Mao Xi on the table and handed over the jade seal to Chen Kefu. There are many seals of the emperor, and different seals must be used in different documents, edicts, etc. The jade seal of the country is the most important party and symbolizes the orthodoxy of the dynasty. Only in the most solemn national letters, will use this seal, such as today's Zen edict, after a few Yang Gao's private seals, there is a stamped with the most important national seal, printed on the order of heaven. Both longevity Yongchang eight insects and birds seal.

There is no need to take out all the more than 20 seals. Sui Diangao held the jade seal of the country in both hands and handed it to Chen Kefu, which also symbolized that he handed over the rivers and mountains of the Great Sui to Chen Kefu's hands. At this moment, the young emperor couldn't help but hesitate a little. But facing Chen Kefu's slightly smiling expression. He had to bear to hand over the seal to Chen Kefu's hands with a heart in his heart.

After receiving the seal of the country, Chen Kefu held it above his head with both hands, and turned to signal to the tens of thousands of soldiers on Taimiao Square. These Chen soldiers were excited one by one. Cheer in unison, long live the mountains. The loud voice rushed straight to the night man, and it couldn't be calmed down for a long time.

Handing over the jade seal of the country, Yang Gao did not hesitate any longer, and safely followed the steps he had rehearsed before, and took off the Twelve Yuzhu Tianzi Pingtian Crown on his head with both hands. Then he took a few steps forward and walked to Chen Kefu's side, on a par with Chen Kefu. There is no more than him.

Mao Xi, Fang Xuanling, and Li Benlei, who served as the edict officials, held the cloud disk and the golden phoenix and climbed on the high platform.

Li Benlei held the cloud disk in his hand. Fang Xuanling took out the Zen edict from Jin Feng's mouth. It was handed to Mao Xi's hands.

Mao Xi, who had already retired from the phase a few years ago, and only held a false position as a Zhengyi Taishi was just over seventy. And all the hair on his head was turned to hoarfrost. But today, he was extremely excited, and his whole person was red and radiant. Twenty-eight years ago, when he was still in the prime of life, he was entrusted by Prince Nanchen and took the newly born Chen Kefu away from home, and avoided from Jiangnan to Zhuo County, Hebei Province to live in seclusion. Yiyin is more than 20 years, and even to the point that he thought that this life was over, Nan Chen would perish from then on, and the emperor's grandson Chen Kefu would only become a minor member of the Sui Dynasty from now on.

Everything is predestined, and the emperor cannot hide in the market after all. Today, Chen Kefu ascended the throne, and Nan Chen was reestablished, and the most excited and happy thing was Mao Xi, who raised Chen Kefu from childhood to adulthood. For so many years, he had treated him like his own child. When he heard that Chen Kefu was in distress in Liaodong, he immediately took the whole village to Liaodong together. Later, when he heard that the crown prince had returned to the country, although he wanted to go south very much, he hesitated for a long time and finally stayed. Today, it's all worth it. …,

When he opened the edict, Mao Xi still couldn't calm down his excitement in his heart, and in his excited mood, Mao Xi read out Yang Gao's Zen edict aloud.

"The natural calamity of the Sui State, the Emperor Taishang of Daxing went on a northern expedition to the Turks, and was captured in Taiyuan. Pity the boy, dying, wailing forever, and the mood is broken. Yang Wei is poisonous, revenge is revenge, and the shadows are hanging from each other, and they don't know where to start. ”

After listening to the beginning, Chen Kefu understood that such an edict must not have been written by Yang Gao himself.

I only heard Mao Xi continue to read out: "The generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, the general manager of the country, King Chen, has a destiny from the sky, descends to the gods, and the heavens and the earth are virtuous, and the sundial is bright." Survive the world, help the danger and save the drowning, from the north to the south, the east and the west. To the nine princes, a hundred is better than a thousand miles. Rectify the rate of Yixia, shelter the gangsters, protect the bow, and the king is Lai. Virtue and creation, merit and merit, Zhaoshu returns to the heart, the number of Si is there, and he is a minister, and he violates the mandate of heaven. In the past Yu and Xia, they pushed each other, and they were not Chonghua, who was worthy of life. ”

Sure enough, a large part of the latter paragraph is completely a tribute to Chen Kefu, listening to those words, I wish to write Chen Kefu as an immortal specially sent by God to save his Yang family. All kinds of words, all kinds of flattery, Chen Kefu stood there and was a little embarrassed. The essence of the matter is just that the Yang family robbed the Chen family back then, and now Chen Kefu has robbed the Yang family again. Such a direct thing, but I have to say that the Yang family was robbed, and I am very grateful. Chen Kefu couldn't help but think in his heart, this person who wrote the edict was also a little shameless. Isn't this naked being cheap and selling well, slapping the left cheek and slapping the right cheek of others? There is also a fate from the sky, a fate of the world, to nine in the princes, a hundred is better than a thousand miles. The words are really rhyming symmetrical, which is really high.

"Today's nine suits are collapsing, the three spirits are changing, and the great luck is gone, please avoid the virtuous road. Zhaomou Bude, he can't care about himself, and his private servant must return to the country. To the crown prince, and to give and replace, the heavens are abolished, how can it be so! ”

"Relying on the saints of the ancients, to punish the four murderers; Fortunately, it is worth the grace of the new, and it is pre-filled with three ke. Xue was ashamed of his father, and he was honored as a filial grandson. Today, according to the story, inferior to the old mansion, the officials are open, and the Chen Dynasty is changed. It is advisable to follow the previous canon, tend to the honorific number, if relieved, feel both Thai and nostalgic. Fake hands are real people, so as to eliminate ugliness and rebellion, help many people, and know what I mean. There is still a division, and all performances are not allowed to be heard. ”

"The Tao is in the Youdai, the honor is in the imperial dome, the sky is clear, the sun and the moon are glorious, the revolution is written in the Xuanxiang, the virtue is in the diagram, the prison lawsuit is returned, the eulogy is suitable, and the calendar of the sky is really important. Although I am mediocre, dark in the past, eternal reverence, for a long time, dare to forget the legacy of the generations, people only wish. Today, he will abdicate the palace, worship Zen in Chen, and rely on the stories of Tang, Yu, Song and Qi. ”

After a lengthy flattery to Chen Kefu, as well as his own belittlement, and even the fall of the Sui Dynasty was said to be destined to be abandoned by God, the edict finally said the most important sentence.

And one of the sentences, I think this edict should be written by the former Sui Dynasty officials. It was a relief, but it was the first time I had heard it in this day and age. Listening to this tone, it is a bit like Yang Gao's original tone. In any case, the edict was read, and it was soon to be copied throughout the world, announcing the alternation of the old and new dynasties.

After Mao Xi finished reading the long edict in one breath, the tens of thousands of soldiers below immediately sang again.

"The sun and the moon are constant, and the stars are in line. Four o'clock from the scriptures, the surname Yuncheng. Yu Yu talks about music, with the spirit of heaven. Move to the virtuous and good, don't listen to it. The falcon is like a drum, and it is like dancing. Puhua has been exhausted, and the clothes are gone. ”

While listening to these passionate and joyful songs, Chen Kefu listened to Fang Xuanling next to him explain to him, saying that this song was contained in "The Great Biography of Shangshu". The Legend of Yu Xia" means that the sun and moon have a law of rising and falling, and the stars follow their own orbits. If you abide by the norms of doing things for the people all year round, the people will sincerely support them. If you teach them liturgy, it will enlighten them in wisdom. If you teach them good and evil, and wisdom, the people will listen to you. The drummer has played the drums, the dance has begun on stage, and I have dedicated my life to this position, and now it is time to lift up my clothes and retire. …,

"Your Majesty, the Zen throne ceremony has been completed, and our hundred officials respectfully ask Your Majesty to move to the Taiji Palace and hold the enthronement ceremony of Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling, who is the left servant of Shangshu Province and the head of the group, said respectfully.

"Okay, move to the Taiji Palace!"

In the first year of the Republic, 616 A.D., on June 8, Chen Kefu finally ascended the throne as the emperor and ascended to the chair that symbolized the supreme power of the Central Plains Dynasty. Although he has been sitting on this chair for a long time, and even feels uncomfortable sitting up, only today is the first day he has actually sat in this position.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

In the Taiji hall, hundreds of officials kneel and worship, and the mountain shouts long live.

According to the procedure, the prime minister of the new dynasty, the governor of Shangshu Province, Shangshu Zuo Servant presented the first song day: "Obviously go to the sky, rotten stars Chen." The sun and the moon are bright, and they are in one person. It means that the sky is full of stars. The brilliance brought to the earth by the sun and the moon depends entirely on Your Majesty to carry it forward.

Looking at the ministers in the palace, Chen Kefu knew that a new era was finally unfolding.

The official in the palace held a yellow scroll in his hand and issued the first holy decree of the Great Chen Dynasty.

"Emperor Dachen decreed: the new emperor ascended the throne, and the emperor pardoned the whole world Hebei Province, Henan Province, Hainan Province, Guangxi Province, Guangdong Province, Vietnam Province, Ryukyu Province, Haidong Province, Haixi Province, Liaodong Province, Liaoxi Province, Mobei Province, Shandong Province, Jiangbei Province, Hedong Province, and Zhongzhili Province Zhongjing Luoyang Province, Beizhili Province Beijing Zhufu, Dongzhili Province Tokyo Liaoyang Province, a total of eighteen provinces for three years, tax contributions. Your Majesty's name is not to be shy about the word "Ke" and "Fu Fu", and the broken army is not shy except that it can no longer be used for naming. ”

"All officers and soldiers will be given a one-year salary, all officers will be promoted to the rank of non-commissioned officer, all officials will be added to the rank of San, and the nobles will be added to the rank of lord."

"Emperor Da Chen ordered that Li Mi be degraded as a concubine, Wang Xuan should be of the Yi clan, and the rest will be punished according to merit. Dou Jiande Yi Nine Clans, the pseudo-Xia Dynasty from the nine products and above from the rebellion all beheaded, immediately beheaded outside the noon gate, Wang Xuanying, Dou Jiande rebellious head dedicated to the Taimiao. ”

"Emperor Da Chen's order, from now on, change the Yuan Shenlong, today's first year of Shenlong, June 8, immediately abolish the Sui Emperor's Republic year."
