Chapter XVII: Enthronement Ceremony
The first day of the first month of the first year of Longwu.
Li Yunqing was dressed in a bright yellow placket dragon robe, on which a total of eight five-clawed golden dragons were embroidered, no matter from the angle of front and back, you can see five dragons, and one dragon is hidden in the placket, symbolizing the meaning of the ninety-five supreme.
In addition to the golden dragon, the dragon robe is also embroidered with twelve seals, the sun, the moon, the stars, the blessings, the mountains, the longevity, the sea, the flowers, birds, fish, insects, etc., which are very luxurious. He wears a flat crown on his head, twelve in front and twelve in the front and back, and uses nine Dragon Balls of the same size in the East China Sea to symbolize the majesty of the Son of Heaven.
The sound of drums was loud, and the emperor walked from the second palace gate of Qianchang Palace to the Tian'an Palace, and dozens of eunuchs immediately took a thick wooden board painted with gold paint to build a golden ladder on the dragon road in the middle, Li Yunqing walked up the steps with firm steps, and the way of the Son of Heaven was impartial. Looking at the magnificent hall in front of him, Li Yunqing no longer had a reluctant look on his face, and he had already made up his mind to pass on the rivers and mountains of the Great Qian Dynasty.
Zhao Bingyan was following behind Li Yunqing at the moment, bowing his head and looking very obedient. When Li Yunqing put on the court clothes, the imperial aura on his body was unreservedly displayed, and Zhao Bingyan once again clearly realized that the young man in front of him, who still had a trace of childishness on his face, was the new master of this empire. Whether she wants to or not, she can't stop this from happening, of course, if she kills Li Yunqing now, the matter will be over, but she can't do it. She felt that Li Yunqing might be a good emperor, and just because he was willing to go to prison for a woman who had entered the Qinglou, no emperor had ever done this.
Entering the Tian'an Palace, Li Yunqing got on the throne and sat on the throne, and the ministers were already standing in the main hall at this moment. Wang Changling held a huge dragon pattern treasure made of pure gold in his hand, which contained a jade seal that had been handed down for more than 2,000 years, and on the other side, Li Mu held a luxurious sword and went up to the imperial court from the other side.
The two knelt in front of Li Yunqing one left and one right, and held the tray in their hands high above their heads. Chen Zhong picked up the lid of the treasure letter, and a jade seal the size of an adult's palm appeared in front of Li Yunqing, Li Yunqing lifted the imperial seal, only to see four big characters engraved with seal characters below: Emperor Road Chengtian. The meaning is clear, it means that the Great Qianhuang Dynasty is in charge of the world, which is the meaning of God, not that manpower can change it.
Li Yunqing looked at the imperial seal and picked up the sword on the other side, this sword is the sword of the Son of Heaven, according to legend, it is forged with meteorite iron outside the sky, and the sharpening of the iron is as sharp as clay. Pulling out the sword, only to hear the sound of the sword coming out, the cold light was pressing. It is said that Emperor Taizu used this sword to kill and conquer the war, and laid down thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
After looking at the two important weapons of the country, Wang Changling and Li Mu handed over the things to Chen Zhong and Zhao Bingyan, who were standing beside the emperor, and returned to the imperial court.
Wang Changling said in a loud voice: "Congratulations to the new emperor on his accession to the throne, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down and saluted, and Chen Zhong and Zhao Bingyan were naturally no exception. Zhao Bingyan herself couldn't tell what was going on, and she couldn't help kneeling down in such an atmosphere, if it was three months ago, it would have been impossible in her opinion.
Chen Zhong took a step forward and solemnly read out the first holy decree after Li Yunqing ascended the throne: "Feng, the emperor is carried by heaven, and the edict says, I will ascend the throne as the emperor with the purpose of Fengtai, and I will not forget the difficulties of my ancestors in starting a business, remember the hardships of the previous emperor's business, carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future, follow the will of heaven, reassure the people, be diligent in state affairs, and magnify the ancestors." Also, amnesty to the world! Chin this. ”
After Chen Zhong read out the holy decree, the civil and military officials once again fell to the ground and said in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Li Yunqing looked at these ministers below, many of them were old ministers who followed Taizu back then, and most of the ministers that Li Hongyuan used during his 12 years of reign were also old ministers left by Taizu. He didn't have enough time to promote new people, and these old ministers were still serious about their work, so he stayed. It is not unusual for many people to go through three dynasties.
I only heard Li Yunqing say: "Now that the emperor's funeral period has passed, but Emperor Daxing has not gone far, and the ministers must be diligent in the king's affairs and do the errands in their hands well." I have not yet taken charge of the government, and everything will be handled by the cabinet, and those who have no decision will be presented to me. I hope that all Aiqing and I will work together to ensure that my great country is forever! ”
"The emperor is shengming, and the ministers will definitely not live up to the expectations of Taizu Taizong and the emperor!" Wang Changling said.
"My Emperor Shengming!" The ministers said in unison.
Zhao Dekang came out and said: "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Xiuluo Kingdom, the envoy of the Haixin Kingdom, the envoy of the Nine Divisions of the Grassland, and the envoy of the Bingao Kingdom asked to see you outside the palace, and I was ordered to congratulate Your Majesty on his accession to the throne. ”
Li Yunqing smiled when he heard this: "Xuan." ”
Chen Zhong stepped forward and pulled the male duck's throat and said: "Your Majesty has a decree, the envoy of Xuanxiu Luo Kingdom, the envoy of Haixin Country, the envoy of the Nine Departments of the Grassland, and the envoy of Bingao Country will meet you!" ”
It didn't take much effort for twelve people to enter the Tian'an Palace, and the envoys of the Haixin Kingdom and the Shura Kingdom, as well as the eight envoys from the Nine Divisions of the Prairie, knelt on the ground respectfully and said loudly: "The ministers see the Emperor of the Great Qiantian Dynasty and congratulate the Emperor on his accession to the throne." ”
The envoy of the Bingao Kingdom and a big man wearing a cowhide and a fur hat stood on top of the main hall with a proud face, but they bent down to Li Yunqing and saluted. Li Yunqing's face turned cold when he saw this scene, and he said lightly: "Who are the two of you, why don't you salute me when you see me?" Could it be that after walking too far, the knee will not bend? ”
Hearing this, Lawris, the envoy of the Ice Proud Country, raised her head and said extremely arrogantly: "I am only loyal to the empress of my country, and I cannot kneel to others!" He looked Li Yunqing up and down and continued: "What's more, it's a child, it's so funny, hahaha." Saying that, he actually laughed insolently.
Wang Changling shouted angrily when he heard this: "Presumptuous! The savages in the west are rude, and if they are disrespectful to our emperor again, they will not want to retreat! ”
Lauris glared at Li Yunqing on the throne and continued to laugh and said, "Did I say something wrong? Your emperor was originally a child, don't you have an adult? ”
When Wang Changling heard this, he was about to break out when he stepped forward, but he heard Li Yunqing say coldly: "It seems that you don't know the rules very well, so I will reluctantly teach your master a good one, and when you go to someone else's territory, you have to abide by other people's rules." As he spoke, he looked at Yang Bin, who was standing under the imperial court, and said lightly: "Fifty palms." ”
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Yang Bin naturally has no scruples about dealing with people who offend his master, and the loud slaps in the hall are endless, and everyone can hear them clearly. Soon after the palm was finished, Yang Bin turned to Li Yunqing and said, "The emperor is done." ”
At this moment, Lauris no longer looked human, and her face was swollen like a pig's head. He was already demented, and this proud messenger had been flattered everywhere he went, and no one had ever dared to do anything to him, because he was the empress of the Proud Nation. But today, the child sitting on the dragon chair actually let people beat him, and he was so decisive.
Lauris covered her face and lips trembled for a long time, and finally roared in a broken dry language: "You...... How dare you hit me!! I am an envoy sent by the Empress of the Ice Proud Country, and you dare to do it to me!! As he spoke, he rushed to Gosuke.
