It's dark, five watches, Phoenix Terrace.

"My lord, do you want to discuss this matter again?" The queen spoke softly, and she spoke softly while arranging the court clothes for King Wu of Zhou.

It was difficult to close her eyes all night, just took a nap, the time of the early dynasty was approaching, and the queen was awakened by the sound of King Wu of Zhou getting up, and she had to accompany the king to the previous dynasty to do a big thing for her child Ji Chan. The queen was worried and asked the king.

"The queen doesn't have to worry, this king must do this." King Wu of Zhou and Yi Jiang faced each other, "Our king, he will be sixteen in a few days, he will eat the seventeen-year-old meal immediately, why not crown in advance?" King Wu of Zhou stared at Yi Jiang for a moment, the man's perseverance was written on his face, and he replied affirmatively.

During this time, King Wu of Zhou coughed badly day and night, and although the queen pretended to be relaxed about his illness on the surface, King Wu of Zhou knew his illness. Through the imperial physician Himeko, he learned the whole situation of his illness in detail.

When his father King Wen was imprisoned in Yili, in order to rescue his father, he and Ji Mozi lay in the snow outside the city for three days, waiting for the greedy, cunning, and lustful ministers Fei Zhong and You Hun to release their father. That year, although the young and promising and ambitious prince of the Hou Mansion saved his father, he was infected with a cold disease, and later in the major battles, he took the lead and took the lead, flowing the river and crossing the snow-capped mountains, charging into the front line, and his body was getting worse. Severe cough and asthma bacteria entered the lungs, and all the internal organs were damaged, so all the doctors invited to tell King Wu of Zhou that Yangshou could have six or five years at most......

King Wu of Zhou is not a fool!

Tai Doctor Himeko still wants to relax and recuperate, not to be intimidated by the condition. But he knew his condition too well, and it would be nice if God could give him another three years.

King Wu of Zhou is a man with a heart.

He discussed with the queen many times about reciting the morning crown ceremony to the crown prince. The queen was worried about the king's illness, and she was worried that if she let the crown prince pay the crown too early, it might attract criticism from the officials, the king's spirit, and the dissatisfaction of the harem, so she rarely mentioned the matter. King Wu of Zhou has made up his mind, considering that he has a sick body and is old, if he can't hold it one day, and suddenly drives the crane west, the young prince, nameless and righteous, strong support, obviously can't do it. Second, he considered that the princes of the Zhou royal family, the ladies of the harem, and the young princes, whether they were really convinced in their hearts, and whether they were really supported in their hearts, were still unknown. The most important reason for urging King Wu of Zhou to make up his mind to perform the crown ceremony for the crown prince in advance was the assassination of the prince that occurred when the princes went out hunting.

King Wu of Zhou had clearly felt that an assassination induced by his old age, declining health, and the young age of the crown prince was extremely arrogant, and it was actually carried out in the Forbidden Garden, the hunting ground of the emperor's family, and the desire to seize power was too rampant.

King Wu of Zhou immediately made a decision, he must perform the crown ceremony for the crown prince in the shortest time and at the fastest speed, and announce the identity of Ji Chen, the prince of the country and the future king, to the world.

General Ji Leizi in front of the emperor has already followed the orders of King Wu of Zhou, with two hundred tigers and thousands of armor soldiers arranged outside the main hall, and Ji Mozi, the head of the killing department, has also placed fifty black shadow dead soldiers behind the pillars of the Zhengyuan Palace.

Before the upper court, the main hall had been controlled by the tiger army of King Wu of Zhou.

The arrangement of this slaughter is a bit like the succession of the Son of Heaven before his death, or the purge before the seizure of the heir, the rectification of the palace discipline, the exclusion of dissidents, or the major personnel changes in the new dynasty.

In this Great Zhou Dynasty, where the royal power of the previous dynasty had just changed hands and the new power was concentrated, it was nothing. King Wu of Zhou did this, there is only one purpose, from today, after the prince performs the "adult and crown" ceremony, the prince can listen to the government in the court, become a veritable prince, and can act on behalf of the king at a critical moment, King Wu of Zhou wants to tell everyone that there is only one prince in the Great Zhou, and he is the prince Ji Chan.

Just after the fifth watch, the national teacher Jiang Ziya, Dazai Nangong Kuo, Taifu Ji Dan, Zhao Gong Ji Zheng, Bi Gong Ji Gao, Da Sima Yao Beizhu, Da Si Kou San Yisheng and other important ministers of the court have come to the Zhengyuan Hall early, waiting for the imperial envoy to go to the court.

One after another, hundreds of officials came to the main hall.

Taishi Jiang Ziya was the leader, twisting his beard, closing his eyes slightly, holding an official wat in his hand, and not saying a word. Dazai Nangong Kuo and Zhaogong Ji Xiao whispered something in a whisper, Bi Gong Ji Gao came in a hurry, panting and San Yisheng took a look, and entered the inside from the side of the Zhengyuan Palace, I don't know what to take.

"Knock, knock!" The long drum sounded, waking up the darkness.

The drums of the upper dynasty are beating and urging people to forge ahead.

Since the Xia Dynasty, the drum music prelude has urged hundreds of officials to form a rule in the court. King Wu of Zhou likes the sound of war drums, and this kind of drum music always reminds him of the high fighting spirit and fighting of the armor soldiers in the war. The three long drums of the new dynasty not only urge people to forge ahead, but also remind every courtier and every person in the new dynasty to break the difficulties of the old tyranny and the hard-won success of the new dynasty, and remind the ministers to work hard, work hard for the public, and benefit the people.

Under the leadership of Taishi Jiang Ziya and Taifu Jidan, the hundred officials were quiet and orderly, and walked into the Zhengyuan Hall with Guanwa.

All the officials were in place, and King Wu of Zhou, accompanied by Queen Yi Jiang, wore a dragon robe and a crown, unhurriedly, ascended to the high platform of the main hall, and slowly sat down on the dragon chair.

In the past, there was no second chair in the main hall, but today one meter away from the main hall, there is a small red dragon chair with a similar color to the dragon chair. And the queen Yi Jiang stood next to the king's dragon chair, and there was no seat.

"There is a morning music, and there is no retreat." The temple man who presided over the court meeting Ji Duan prolonged his voice and announced to the hundred officials in the hall.

Speaking of the temple man Ji Du, he was originally a child of the Xiqi Zhou family, because he happened to be stabbed by the Yin people in the war, and cut off his life. This Ji Du is a good man, even if he was so seriously injured on the battlefield, he swept thousands of troops with a long halberd, and at the end of the battle, the merchant army surrendered, Ji Du was stained red with blood, and only half a life was left.

King Wu of Zhou immediately ordered people to save Ji Du's life, and after the establishment of a new dynasty, King Wu of Zhou sealed Ji Du's whole family into the royal family, and Ji Du volunteered to serve the royal front and be accompanied by King Wu of Zhou. King Wu of Zhou thanked Ji Duan for his loyalty, and gave Ji Du the treatment of a doctor, which was specially designed for the imperial ceremonial officer.

After Ji Du's routine three shouts of "There is a morning play, no book to retreat from the dynasty", King Wu of Zhou was unhurried, and replied to Ji Yuanbo's performance about the security policy of Hojing, General Yaotuo's about revising the camp of the armor soldiers, giving more compensation, etc., after playing one by one, seeing that the ministers did not play again, King Wu of Zhou gave Ji Du a look.

"Inheriting the grace of heaven, the rain and dew, the prince is reciting, the age is sixteen, and the year of the crown is gradually approaching. Ji recites to learn well, both civil and military, virtue and ability, today is an auspicious day, the beginning of the Canadian Yuan service, abandon the young ambition, Shun Er Chengde. Chin this! Ji Du stood on top of the main hall and read the holy decree aloud in front of the hundred officials.

After the crown prince returned to the prince's house from Dangshan, the prince Ji Dan brought him directly into the Zhengyuan Palace, and according to the will of King Wu of Zhou, he informed the prince of all the details of the crown ceremony in advance.

The prince tried on the yuan clothes and ceremonial crowns that had been made for several days, and everything was ready, although the prince had doubts about the crown ceremony in advance for himself, but he kept silent. Because at such a critical moment, as a prince, the best thing to do is to be silent. What's more, he went hunting in the mountains and experienced a thrilling stabbing experience, which was enough for the growing prince to understand his father's good intentions at that time.
