In the sound of the mountains and tsunami cheering, Li Li wore a crown with 12 crowns hanging from front to back, a big gui in his waist, and a town in his hand, and steadily climbed to the top of the altar from the southeast side of the mound, accepting the worship and cheers of more than 500,000 people.
At this moment, the wilderness in the southern suburbs was completely boiling.
Drums sounded in unison, more than 300,000 soldiers waved their weapons and cheered loudly, the war horses that had been forcibly forbidden to make a sound raised their heads and neighed, and the flags were danced wantonly by the wrestlers with big shoulders and round waists, making the sound of hunting, and the noisy people were intertwined with the bowing sound of the people one after another, forming a unique grand event at the enthronement ceremony.
At this moment, the Celebratory Mission in the southeast corner below the altar was drowned out by earth-shattering cheers. They were deeply shocked, their expressions changed greatly, their faces were dull, and they looked around at the almost crazy soldiers and people in disbelief, and then looked up at Li Li who was standing on the top of the altar in amazement, and inexplicably bred a thought of reverence in their hearts, and felt the supreme majesty of the emperor in the world.
In an instant, more than 2,000 spectators from the 16 observation missions followed the Xiliang soldiers and people who knelt down to worship, and they all bowed down and bowed, shouting in unison, "Long live, long live, long live!" β
No one forced them to bow down, and no one urged them to shout long live, it was purely the boiling atmosphere of the scene that drove them to make an instinctive move, willingly paying homage to Li Li and surrendering to Li Li's feet. Bow down in front of him and support him in unison.
Among the more than 2,000 members of the mission who bowed their heads and bowed. Only the more than three hundred envoys of the Northern Wei and Southern Han missions hesitated for a moment. I don't know if I should bow down to Li Li like everyone else. After all, they belong to different camps, have their own affiliations and dynasties, and are still invited to observe the mission, so they don't need to make a big salute, let alone echo the crowd and shout long live, let alone show weakness in front of Li Li and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, and lose the identity of their respective dynasties and the face of the envoys.
However, for a moment of their slightest hesitation, tens of thousands of questioning eyes stared at them in unison. They were all over their bodies, shivering involuntarily, and an indescribable cold rushed up from the soles of their feet to the door of their heads. Suddenly, they only felt a cold back, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and the murderous gaze seemed to cut them with a thousand knives, devoured alive, and crushed into meat puree. It's indescribable, but it's real. Under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of cold eyes, they knelt down without thinking, and supported the ground with their hands. Bow down and shout long live with the crowd.
This is the strength of the masses and the aspiration of the people. It is also the trend of the times, and no one can swim against the current. As long as you don't want to be torn to shreds and crushed into pulp. You have to go with the flow and follow in the footsteps of the crowd. Follow their cries and surrender to the feet of the high Lee Li.
Among the members of the delegation who bowed their heads were Pang Tong, the chief military advisor of the Southern Han Kingdom, and Cao Pi, the prince of the Wei State. Hidden among the servants of their respective missions, they were dressed in human and well-dressed clothes, but they wore gray-black felt hats, and they looked nondescript and nouveau riche. And this is exactly what they are in line with their status as envoys.
After all, they, the servants who protect the safety of the mission, are a group of rude and reckless men who only know how to dance knives and sticks, shout and kill, and they are really mud legs who don't know a few big characters, and it is difficult for them to wear silk and satin all their lives. However, in order to show the identity and status of their respective dynasties and not be ridiculed, the head of the mission specially purchased brocade robes and robes sewn from fine silk for them, so that they could dress decently and participate in the enthronement ceremony. This is to slap a swollen face and pretend to be fat, fill the faΓ§ade, and let a group of martial artists wear silk and satin, so as not to lose the national dignity and face of the two major vassal states of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Han Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, they left the inn early in the morning, and when they went out, it was very cold, and the ground was full of frost with white flowers, so in order to keep warm and not be frozen, they took it upon themselves to wear a big furry felt hat that could cover their ears and most of their cheeks. In this way, a different landscape has been formed at this moment, a group of big men in brocade clothes and big felt hats stand in the crowd of people, hot and sweaty, but they can't take off their hats casually, so they can only continue to hold on with big felt hats.
Because their heads were sweating, and their felt hats covered their hair tightly, and if they took off their hats at this moment, their hair would be messy like a chicken's nest, and their hair would stick to their heads after being soaked with sweat. On such a grand and solemn occasion, if the hair is messy or the hair is scattered, it is undoubtedly untidy and undignified, and is it not insulting to the national body? What's more, there are hundreds of thousands of Xiliang soldiers and people at the scene, and they are wearing their hair in front of everyone, won't they be seen as a joke, and they will not be ridiculed for a lifetime in the future?
For this reason, although it was so hot that he was sweating profusely, and beads of sweat the size of beans were running down his ears, sweating profusely, Pang Tong, Cao Pi and Hu Cong could only grit their teeth and hold on, no matter how hot they were, they couldn't take off their hats, and they had to hold on until the end of the enthronement ceremony anyway, otherwise their true identities would be exposed, and someone among the Xiliang civilians and soldiers present would definitely be able to recognize them.
Others don't talk about it, just talk about Pang Tong, the military division of the Southern Han Dynasty, there are not a few people who know him under the altar at this moment, because he went to Nanyang County to deliver the letter of state on behalf of the Han Emperor Liu Biao last year, and Bo Cai, Yang Qiu, Zhuge Jin and others stationed in Nanyang have seen him. In addition, Zhuge Liang has been a classmate with Pang Tong for many years, as long as Pang Tong dares to take off his hat and reveal his true face, even if the crowd is surging at the moment, Zhuge Liang can pull him out of the crowd.
Pang Tong is like this, and Cao Pi is naturally no exception. Once he appears in public, even if the generals and civil officials of Xiliang don't know him, but Xiliang is not a dry eater, how can he not recognize Cao Pi, the prince of Wei? Once discovered, Cao Pi's attempt to retreat with his whole body is tantamount to a fool's dream, and he doesn't want to leave Chang'an alive.
Therefore, in order not to attract attention, not to reveal their identities and whereabouts, and to leave Chang'an peacefully, Pang Tong and Cao Pi were sweating profusely, and knelt down with everyone to worship Li Li, bowed their heads to the ground, and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" "It's really too hard for both of them.
Speaking of which, in the country of the two major princes, the two of them can definitely be regarded as the number one people, although they dare not say that one person is above ten thousand people, but they are also the people who respond to all calls and call for wind and rain. However, at this moment, he couldn't help himself, whether it was the chief military advisor of the Southern Han Dynasty or the prince of the Wei Kingdom, the two of them didn't dare to act rashly when they stood in the crowd, so they could only follow the crowd. To see how others do it, they must learn to do it, and they must gather the spirit, not sloppy at all, and if they want to learn, they must learn in a good way, and they must not let people see the slightest flaw.
I have to say that disguise is sometimes not necessarily a wise move, but instead becomes smart but is mistaken by smart, and the end of being smart is self-inflicted. Pang Tong and Cao Pi were cocooned at this time, suffering from it, their faces were as hot as pig's liver, and they wanted to cry without tears in pain, but they still pretended to be fanatics who resolutely supported Li Li's claim to be emperor, knelt down on their knees, and bowed their heads. You must know that when their respective emperors Cao Cao of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Liu Biao of the Southern Han Dynasty ascended the throne, they were not so active at this moment, kneeling on the ground and bowing again and again, and shouting slogans loudly every time they kowtowed.
People who don't know the inside story will definitely mistakenly think that they are Li Li's loyal fans, loyal to the point of fanaticism. Seeing that the felt hats on their heads were steaming hot, sweating and sweating between their necks, and the heat was like that, but they were still kowtowing and shouting long live, which was more active and fanatical than most of the Xiliang soldiers and people. As everyone knows, they did this completely by taking the opportunity of bowing their heads to shake off the beads of sweat on their foreheads, and taking advantage of the opportunity to raise their heads to wipe a handful of sweat covering their eyes.
Just when Pang Tong and Cao Pi were bowing their heads unwillingly, directly below the altar two hundred steps away from the two of them, at this moment, there was also a person who followed all the civil and military forces to bow down and bow down; But his expression was sluggish, kneeling on the ground and looking up at Li Li on the altar, his eyes were confused and stunned. He is the master of Zhuge Liang's account, Sima Yi and Sima Zhongda, who were born in Hanoi's century-old family.
Seeing Li Li ascending the throne as emperor amid the tsunami-like shouts of the mountains, Sima Yi did not have any special feelings, and was not moved at all, not only was he not a little surprised, but felt that such a grand enthronement ceremony was too extravagant and wasteful, which could be called a waste of money and labor, and it was definitely not a wise move.
But as the delegations of various countries who came to watch the ceremony also knelt down and shouted, Sima Yi finally realized the true intention of this ceremony. Obviously, Li Xuan, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Li Ru and others who were preparing for the enthronement ceremony wanted to use this shock effect to spread the news of this grand event in the southern suburbs, so as to win the recognition of the new emperor Li Li by the larger number of Li people, increase the popularity of the Jin Kingdom, and lay the foundation for the future domination of the world. Such tricks naturally can't be concealed from the deep and wise Sima Zhongda.
However, when he saw with his own eyes Huan Fei, who was known as the "No. 1 General of Xiliang", carrying a large banner on the altar, Sima Yi suddenly lost his temper and felt inexplicably lost, as if he had lost a treasure that was vital to his life and directly related to the fate of the entire Sima family. In a trance, he felt empty in his heart, as if his heart had been taken away by others, and endless loss and melancholy came to his heart. These negative feelings came suddenly, too quickly, and inexplicably for no reason, but they brought him inexplicable sentimentality.
At this moment, Sima Yi stared straight at the big drum that was stirring in the wind, and stared at the word "Jin" on the big one. This pole is the name of the country after the founding of Xiliang, from the mouth of his Sima Yi, and it is also the word "Jin" that gives him a chance to live, and even it brings peace to the entire Sima family, and gives the family the opportunity to revitalize the lintel.
