Chapter 30: Enthronement

Li Jiong, as the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, was responsible for the troop movement at the east gate and south gate of the imperial city when the palace changed. The new chief eunuch read aloud the changes in the official positions of various courtiers, some people were demoted, and some people were added to the ranks, and the generals who had followed Prince Yu to fight before were more or less promoted. On the dragon chair, the tip of the knife pierced the thick cashmere blanket, Feng Yu held the handle of the knife with one hand, leaned on the dragon chair, supported his head with the other hand, and the corners of his mouth were wiped with a curvature. Li Wei stood in the main hall, didn't pay any attention to the rules, raised his eyes to look at Feng Yu, and always felt that this boss was different from the one he knew before.

What's the difference? Li Wei stared at Feng Yu's eyes and thought, there seemed to be some fanaticism in those eyes, as if even reason was withdrawn synchronously with him when he sat on the throne.

The chief eunuch's shrill voice suddenly rose: "Bold! Dare to look directly at the sky! Don't kneel yet..."

"It's okay, let him watch it if he likes it." Feng Yu, who was reclining on the dragon chair, spoke lazily, the chief eunuch retreated, and Li Wei looked at the groveling courtiers with a contemptuous smile.

Several officials who had been favored in front of the former emperor cowered and smiled flatteringly. Several ministers looked at each other left and right, and finally pushed the good old man's Ministry of Rites Shangshu to stand in the center.

The hair of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was already completely white, and his figure looked a little rickety, and the wrinkles on the little old man's face were squeezed into a flower, and he knelt on the ground respectfully: "Long live my emperor, dare to ask Your Majesty, have you ever set a date for the enthronement ceremony?" ”

Feng Yu raised his eyelids, and his voice sounded with a faint smile: "Oh? Isn't this kind of thing always the responsibility of Xu Qing's Ministry of Rites? Why," said this, Feng Yu's voice suddenly lowered, "You are a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, you don't want to do it?" ”

Xu Anyi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, began to break out in a cold sweat on his head, and his body couldn't help but bend lower: "The old minister is terrified, please forgive the emperor." ”

Needles could be heard falling on the main hall, and the atmosphere was depressed as if it had condensed into ice, Li Wei squinted at a group of ministers with pale faces, and suddenly felt that this person was really interesting.

The tense atmosphere didn't last long, and Feng Yu broke this terrifying atmosphere with a chuckle: "Xu Qing, no, get up, go down and prepare for the enthronement ceremony and the post-sealing ceremony, don't let me remind you next time." ”

Su Shangshu was shocked when he heard the "Sealing Ceremony", and an irrepressible joy appeared on his face. Feng Yu yawned indifferently: "Okay, let's retreat." ”

The chief eunuch shouted in a shrieked voice, "Retreat!" The civil and military officials knelt down respectfully and said in unison, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Li Wei knelt in the middle of this group of people, saying the same thing with the crowd, but he thought in his heart: "Long live? This Terran Emperor is really blind. ”

After retreating from the court, Su Shangshu walked out of the hall with great vigour, and the ministers next to him either sincerely or falsely said hello to him, Su Shangshu didn't care about their words with soft knives, and greeted everyone with a smile.

Li Wei looked at the back of the proud old rooster and sneered disdainfully, and the good brother next to him punched him in the chest: "What? Do you also think this old thing is not pleasing to the eye? ”

"Tsk, this old thing doesn't know what he's proud of." Li Wei pursed his lips with a look of disgust.

"This isn't someone's daughter," the good brother also turned his head to look at the proud back, "That's a righteous countryman, with his temperament, I don't know how much benefit he can get." ”

"Guojo?" Li Wei shook his head, "He won't be the ruler for long." ”

"Oh?" The good brother took a step back and looked at Li Wei with interest, "How do you know?" I don't look like this little old man is short-lived, what? Do you want to do anything to him? ”

"I do it? He also deserves it? Li Wei sneered, with an indescribable disgust on his expression, "Have you forgotten what our dear boss just said?" ”

"You mean," the good brother touched his chin and thought about it, and finally patted his head as if he had suddenly realized, "Next time?" ”

Li Wei looked at his good brother with a teachable and not too stupid look, and the good brother looked at the back of the proud little old man and began to be full of sympathy.

The enthronement ceremony is scheduled to be held ten days later, and the ceremony after the seal is held at the same time, Li Wei stood under the high platform and looked up at the incense burned on the high platform and began to read the book of the Ministry of Rites, the ode is long, listening to Li Wei can't help but want to yawn. Finally, after reading this ode, according to the normal process, it should be the new emperor and the queen to join hands to worship the sky, and then the title and change the year name will be over.

However, after the Ministry of Rites Shangshu trembled and packed up the pile of books and slips from the high platform, it was an old Taoist priest in a white robe and wide sleeves who slowly walked up from the seven-star platform that sacrificed to the sky. The old Taoist priest had a childish face, eyebrows and beard that reached his waist, and he was dressed in a white robe without wind, and he had the appearance of a Taoist fairy wind.

Li Wei wanted to laugh a little, these Taoist priests and priests really wanted to be blind when they wanted to be prosperous and rich. The boss of his own family is too, he didn't believe in this thing before, why did he become an emperor and change his sex?

The white-robed old man stood on the high platform with a whisk of dust and recited some words, Li Ji was a little unconcerned, but he was just a madman who was not in the stream, and he had studied for a few years to jump the gods and come out of the pit and deceive him, and he didn't care what he did.

However, as the old Taoist priest chattered in his mouth, and a silver-red light slowly flashed on the dust, Li Yan's expression suddenly became serious, his eyes gradually narrowed, and he re-examined this old Taoist priest who looked like a fairy wind and a bone with some horror.

"What's wrong?" The good brother seemed to notice his strangeness, and under the cover of the wide robe and big sleeves, he poked Li Ji's chest with his elbow and asked in a low voice.

"This old Taoist priest, something is wrong." Li Wei squinted at the silver-red light that was gradually growing stronger on the dust, and watched the Taoist priest take care to lift the dust to the sky, the silver-red light rose to the sky, and a golden dragon meandered down along the trajectory of the silver-red light cluster just now, hovering on the Seven Star Platform for a long time.

The civil and military officials, together with the soldiers guarding it, had seen such a scene, and some people shouted, "This is a good omen!" The emperor is the true son of the dragon! With this voice, Hula lala knelt on the ground, and the old Taoist priest on the high platform stroked his beard proudly, and laughed loudly: "Your Majesty, come and listen to the words of heaven!" ”

Feng Yu, dressed in a dark red embroidered gold dragon robe, slowly stepped onto the stage, and stood on the high platform amid the mighty sound of "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live", spread his arms and closed his eyes.

The kneeling man looked up at this never-before-seen spectacle, the golden dragon circled a few times above the Seven Star Terrace, and one swooped towards Feng Yu's chest, Feng Yu's body glowed with golden light, and the dragon crashed into his body entirely.

The old Taoist priest stroked his palms and laughed: "Great goodness! The golden dragon enters the body, and the dragon god is reincarnated! ”

Feng Yu slowly opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth were uncontrollably curled, and his eyes seemed to be flashing with a little silver-red light.

Li Wei looked at such Feng Yu, his eyes narrowed, and his expression was indescribably dangerous.
