In the spacious and luxurious car, Li Chengming sat quietly on the Hu desk inside, his eyes seemed to be closed, and he looked as if he was in a fugue.

Today is different from the past, a month ago, Li Chengming only traveled in an ordinary carriage, escorting one or twenty people.

And now, he is already the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he will even ascend the throne as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty in less than a month, and he can't travel casually, even if the temple is also in the imperial city, but this time there are as many as two hundred guards who follow the escort alone, not counting the palace maids and wrestlers who follow the car, adding up to three or four hundred people.

Such a scale may seem exaggerated in later generations, but in fact, if Li Chengming's current identity is calculated, not only is it not exaggerated, but even a little shabby.

Since the Han Dynasty, there are regulations on the specifications of the emperor's travel, according to the size of the regulations, divided into big driving, legal driving and small driving, of which the big driver needs to be led by the minister, the general participates, the servant drives, belongs to the car 81 times, and the car is 1,000 times, and the cavalry is more than 10,000 people; The law is led by the governor of the capital, and the service is cared for, and the car is driven by the car, which belongs to 36 cars; The small chauffeur is served by the deacon Shang Shu, and the number of chariots is smaller, but the number of guards is also considerable.

But these are just standing guards, not counting the guides and pilots in front, and the drum bands in the back, etc., these alone add up to thousands of people.

The speed of the car was not fast, and after about two quarters of an hour, that is, about half an hour, the car finally arrived in front of the Jongmyo in a swaying manner.

The front hall of the temple is built very magnificently, the dragon pillars that are seen alone are enough to have hundreds, the stone steps of the upper hall are also 9981 steps, the gate is 9 meters high, 27 meters wide, there are two small doors next to it, but even if it is a small door, it is enough to have more than one zhang high, three zhang or so wide.

Although he has seen all kinds of palaces in the Chang'an Palace, seeing the Li family's temple again still makes Li Chengming feel a sense of amazement.

"Your Highness, the elders have been waiting in the palace for a long time, please follow the old slave inside!" When an old eunuch saw Li Chengming get out of the car, he hurriedly greeted him and bowed.

Stepping down from the car and looking at the door of the Zongmiao where there were only a few eunuchs waiting on the side, the corners of Li Chengming's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, and he gestured to Wang Hu next to him, Wang Hu hugged his fists slightly, and then turned to leave.

"Lead the way!" After Wang Hu left, Li Chengming said lightly, and then walked into the temple with his personal guards.

When the old eunuch saw Wang Hu leaving, a different color flashed in his eyes, but under Li Chengming's nose, he didn't dare to make any small movements, and cautiously bowed down to lead the way.

Under the guidance of the old eunuch, he walked for nearly a quarter of an hour or so, and finally walked from the front hall to the middle hall, and the figures in the hall could be faintly seen, and there seemed to be many people waiting there.

"Imperial grandson, Li Chengming has arrived!" When he came to the front of the hall, the old eunuch who led the way suddenly raised his voice.

Hearing the old eunuch's roll call, Li Chengming's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and he glanced at the old eunuch coldly.

It stands to reason that his previous identity was indeed a good emperor's grandson, but that was before, since Li Chengming got the edict of succession before Li Yuan's death, then he is now the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and in a solemn place like Zongmiao, he should be called the prince.

But the old eunuch called him the imperial grandson, and the taste was different.

In a cannibalistic place like the Imperial Palace, would a eunuch who could live to such an old age make such a low-level mistake that even he could see? If that were the case, then he wouldn't have lived that long, and the only explanation was that he had been instructed by some people.

However, Li Chengming just glanced at him, and then quietly stepped over the threshold and walked into the hall.

"Presumptuous, the place of worship in the temple, how can you enter without permission, don't you quit quickly!" As soon as Li Chengming entered the hall, the guards behind him were about to follow, but they heard a shout from the hall.

Li Chengming raised his eyes and saw that the person who spoke was an old man with a round face, if he remembered correctly, this person was Li Deliang, a member of the Li clan who went to worship Li Yuan the day before yesterday and was named the king of Xinxing.

"Hehe, Chengming's child is here, come in!" After drinking and reprimanding Li Chengming's personal guards, Li Deliang smiled at Li Chengming again.

Li Chengming's eyes swept over the people in the hall, and when he saw that the others did not react to Li Deliang's reprimand or speak to him, he raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his hand and waved his hand to the guards behind him, and then continued to walk towards the hall.

There are two rows of seats in the front hall of Jongmyo Temple, and one of the first seats is placed on top of it at the front.

At this time, in the two rows of Hu cases in the main hall, there were already seven or eight old men in python robes, and they were sitting on their seats looking at Li Chengming.

Li Chengming walked in indifferently, his eyes swept over the people in the hall, these people were also the people who had gone to worship Li Yuan the day before yesterday, and the highest status should be the old man sitting on the far left under the first place.

This old man can be said to be a person with a high status in the Li Tang royal family, named Li Xiong, the word Bird, is Li Yuan's cousin, but he is not Li Hu's own grandson, but Li Hu's brother Li Tai, but this line has been closely following Li Hu's lineage since Li Hu, Li Yuan also respected this cousin who had been separated by two generations before, and named him the Zongzheng of the Li clan and managed the Li clan.

"Chengming boy, your position is here, come and sit!" Li Deliang saw Li Chengming walk in, and pointed to the lowest seat next to him with a smile.

However, Li Chengming didn't pay attention to him at all, crossed Li Deliang's side, didn't look at the gloomy look on Li Deliang's face, and then in the various eyes of these old men, he crossed everyone and walked directly to the front of the first place.

"Wait!" Just when Li Chengming was about to sit down, suddenly a voice sounded, and Li Chengming looked over, it was Li Xiong who was sitting at the bottom left.

Li Chengming didn't seem to hear it, and directly Shi Shiran sat on top of the top head, and then looked at Li Xiong, who was sitting at the top of the left, and said, "Uncle Huang (it should be called that, please point it out if it's wrong, thank you!)" What's the matter with you? ”

Seeing that Li Chengming sat directly and unceremoniously on top of the top, ignoring himself at all, Li Xiong's face couldn't help but flash with anger, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a soft voice, "Chengming child, that's not where you sit, why don't you come down quickly?" ”

Li Chengming glanced at Li Xiong lightly, and then said, "This palace is now the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and has obtained the edict of succession, and is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, as far as the palace knows, the patriarch of the Li family has always been seated by my Li family's lineage, and now there is only one person left in the palace of the Li family's lineage, if the palace can't sit, who dares to sit?" ”
