The 10-year Spring Festival is naturally the biggest event and the hottest topic in Kyoto this year, the streets and alleys, everywhere you can see young warriors from all over the world and Kyushu to participate in the competition, since the end of the New Year, including restaurants, gambling houses, green buildings and even pharmacies, all walks of life in Kyoto business, are better than in previous years ranging from three to eighty percent, even the five city soldiers and horses in charge of the security of the capital, are several times busier than usual.

However, before the start of the Spring Festival, there was another high-profile event in Kyoto, that is, the succession ceremony of the third prince Yu Zhongqian. Compared with the arrogant and domineering prince, the people of Kyoto are not familiar with this comet-like rise of the third prince, but a series of things he did after he entered the politics of the household department, the people of Kyoto who are keen to talk about current affairs are also familiar with it.

Especially a while ago, the spring floods broke out in Jingzhou and the upper reaches of the Yongji River, and millions of people were affected, and the three princes not only went to the disaster area to investigate in person, but also handled the resettlement of the victims, the allocation of materials, and the post-disaster epidemic prevention in an orderly manner, which accumulated a lot of popularity and prestige for him.

Of course, there are also people who question him that this is just a fame and reputation, but the problem is that when the eldest prince was in power before, he didn't even bother to do the thing of selling fame and reputation, although the imperial court tried to control public opinion as much as possible about the big prince's collusion with bandits, but how could there be an impermeable wall in this world?

Sixty or seventy percent of the people in Kyoto are engaged in business, and almost everyone has encountered robbers and extortion, but because they have no power, no power and no strength, they have no choice but to break their wealth and avoid disasters. But in their hearts, who doesn't want to cut those guys who have lost their conscience with a thousand knives? And behind these gangs, they are all relying on the mountain of the Great Prince, and the people of Kyoto can imagine their feelings about the Great Prince.

And Yu Zhongqian, the third prince who exposed the crimes of the eldest prince and finally replaced the eldest prince, naturally became a hero in the eyes of the people.

And some elderly people, recalling when Emperor Jingchang was still the eldest prince, when he married the third prince's mother Concubine Fu, although more than 20 years have passed, but now I think about it, the grand scene and the sensational atmosphere of the city, still vividly.

In short, in Kyoto, from the princes and grandsons to the peddlers and pawns, everyone is looking forward to or talking about the arrival of this succession ceremony, after all, this kind of event, a person in a lifetime, at most only once or twice.

But despite the city's attention, not everyone is eligible to participate. The successive succession ceremonies were held at the Temple of Chengtian, and only the officials of the three grades and above were eligible to enter the Manchu Dynasty, and in addition, there were only the royal family and the guests personally invited by the prince himself.

......

Shi Zhiyi looked around and found that in addition to the sergeants guarding the temple, he should be the lowest-ranking official in this Temple of Heaven, and even the guards guarding the inner layer were at least the fourth rank. As for the officials behind him, he almost didn't know any of them, but he could tell their rank from their robes and hats.

However, this time, he was standing here as a friend of the prince, so he did not wear his official uniform of a five-rank cloud cavalry captain, but wore an extremely gorgeous dress, otherwise I don't know how many baptisms of surprised eyes he would have to endure.

After the thirty-six gun salutes, the succession ceremony officially began. Yu Zhongqian was dressed in a red gold python robe, and accompanied by the palace guards and palace maids, he slowly walked towards the center of the Chengtian Temple from a very distance. The Temple of Chengtian is a magnificent altar made entirely of alabaster jade with a height of 33 zhang, and there are three platforms on the eleventh zhang, twenty-two zhang and the top floor. On the topmost platform, only the prince and Emperor Jingchang could climb it, while Shi Zhiyi and a group of royal family members and Yipin officials stood on the second platform, watching the three princes who were approaching together.

When the three princes stepped up the stairs and came to the second floor where Shi Zhiyi was, one of the oldest and most prestigious scholars in Wenhua Pavilion began to read out the edict to canonize the third prince, Yu Zhongqian, as the prince. The content of the edict was nothing more than piling up countless gorgeous rhetoric to praise the three princes, and he had read it for half an hour, so that Shi Zhiyi, who was drowsy after listening to it, began to worry about whether this old man, who seemed to be able to be blown down by a gust of wind, would suddenly turn his back on his breath.

When the edict was finally recited, the ceremony entered the core link, that is, the prince ascended to the top of the Temple of Heaven and took an oath under the witness of the heirloom seal.

Since 100,000 years ago, the heirloom seal has become a symbol of the human emperor, no matter how the dynasty changes, but the king of the new dynasty is only qualified to be the emperor after obtaining the heirloom seal, which has become a recognized norm in the world.

This heirloom seal is carved from a piece of Heavenly Destiny Divine Stone excavated out of nowhere, and this warm and shiny, brilliant golden translucent shape, which is suspended in the star-like bright spot of the Heavenly Destiny Divine Stone, is also the only piece found in this world.

With the breadth of this continent and the abundance of products, it is already extremely incredible that there should be a unique stone that cannot find anything of its kind, and what is even more incredible is the miraculous effect contained in this stone.

This Heavenly Destiny Divine Stone is capable of expelling all bad states including disease, poisoning, trauma, and even cultivation madness, and it has a similar effect not only on the human race, but even on alien beasts and plants. This effect is achieved imperceptibly in normal times, but when it is stimulated by external energy such as true element, it can explode in a short period of time with jaw-dropping miracles.

In addition, this Heavenly Mandate Divine Stone itself also contained a Gathering Spirit Realm, and the concentration of the power of heaven and earth within three feet of its surroundings would be more than ten times that of the surrounding other places. When the Destiny Divine Stone was located in some locations where the power of heaven and earth was already very strong, it was even possible to see with the naked eye the liquid particles formed by the highly condensed power of heaven and earth suspended in the void.

It is precisely because of these characteristics and miraculous effects of this Heavenly Mandate Divine Stone that it was favored by the Terran Emperor Yanhuang 100,000 years ago, and carved it into an imperial seal, symbolizing the unique noble identity of the Terran emperor in the world. Over the past 100,000 years, after generations of emperors have been inherited and competed, it has become a symbol of the emperor recognized by the entire human race, so it is also known as the seal of the world.

Due to the role of the heirloom seal, in the past 100,000 years, the emperors of the human race have rarely died violently due to disease, poisoning, etc., and most of them are extremely healthy, and even the speed of cultivation is much faster than ordinary people.
