Before the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet begins, pray for the cold and many princes will greet the emperor in the Chongming Hall. There are civil and military officials of the upper three grades gathered there, waiting for the emperor's blessing on behalf of heaven.

Then, accompanied by many princes and ministers, they went to the council hall together, and the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet began.

There is a special bookcase in the Chongming Palace, and the emperor Qi Tianye personally wrote the word "Fu" on the dragon paper decorated with dragon patterns.

There are 24 constellations and 24 solar terms, so the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty like the number 24 very much, and the emperor will only write 24 blessing characters every year.

Therefore, there are only a few people who can be blessed every year, and the blessing ceremony can be seen in the weight of a courtier in the emperor's heart.

Therefore, after the blessing ceremony every year, the pattern of the court and China will change slightly.

Every time the word of blessing is completed, the name of the person in the emperor's mouth is read, and that person will go to the imperial case and kneel down to welcome the emperor's blessing.

All the courtiers and princes who received the emperor's blessing words felt a great honor and respectfully enshrined the blessing words at home.

The emperor's blessing is not based on ranking, but the first person to receive the emperor's blessing every year must be the crown prince.

The emperor prayed to Tianye, raised the pen and wrote the powerful blessing word on the dragon note, the prince is the future prince of the Great Zhou, and his position is unshakable. This first blessing word was naturally given to the prince Qiyu.

Qi Han is in the seventh or eighth position every year, the emperor does not like him, Qi Han has always thought that because he is the eldest prince, his father will bless him as a last resort.

Standing silently watching the emperor pick up the pen and begin to write the second blessing word, praying for cold was very close, looking at the resolute face of his father, he couldn't withstand the erosion of the years, and began to appear old.

The memory seems to have returned to his childhood, in the imperial study, a handsome little boy of thirteen or four years old, standing next to the bookcase, picking up a pen and scribbling on the pages.

The resolute and handsome middle-aged man behind him picked him up, and his warm big hand attached to the immature and round little hand, "Han'er, how about your father teach you to write?"

The middle-aged man smiled lovingly, and taught him to practice calligraphy in the imperial study, and the first word he taught was the word "human".

The little boy looked at the two simple strokes on the page, picked up the pen and wrote a word on the page.

Raising his head and thinking about his father, "Father, how do you see Han'er's handwriting?"

The resolute man's eyebrows were lightly raised, and he shook his head, "Han'er, don't underestimate this figure, although it is simple, it represents the yin and yang of heaven and earth." ”

The little boy looked innocent, raised his pretty face, and asked in a childish voice: "Father, you teach the child, what is the truth in this character!"

The resolute man actually smiled softly, then stretched out his arms and explained: "Han'er, this stretching out of the hands is a big character, and there is tolerance and greatness, which is to tell us to be broad-minded and selfless in the world. ”

Then he lifted the pen and added a stroke on the big character, which became a heavenly character, "The big character adds a stroke to the sky, all things must be done in accordance with the way of heaven, no matter how big the human heart is, it is not as big as the sky, and people must have a just heart." ”

The little boy put his hands on his cheeks, looked puzzled, and asked, "What is the way of heaven in the mouth of the father?" ”

The man patted his head gently, his eyes full of love, "Now that I say it, you don't understand, and when you grow up, you will naturally know." ”

Seeing the little boy's thoughtful appearance, he picked up the pen and dipped it in some ink, adding another stroke on top of the heavenly characters.

"This day is the beginning of the word, that is, the word husband, the head is on the sky and the ground, and to be a man is to be down-to-earth, and he is a big husband who stands up to the sky!

The little boy heard his father's explanation, although he still didn't understand the big truth contained in it, there was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows.

Suddenly jumped down from the man's body, raised his handsome face and crossed his waist, and said: "Father, Han'er will definitely become a husband who stands up to the sky when he grows up!"

Outside the imperial study, a beautiful and elegant young woman walked in from the outside with a food box in her hand, and when she saw her son, she actually covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed out loud.

Put down the food box in his hand and bowed, "Your Majesty, the concubine made some chrysanthemum cakes." ”

The handsome and resolute man stretched out his hand to take the woman's hand, with tenderness in his eyes.

Although those memories are long, they are still clearly remembered in my heart, but now things are wrong, he is no longer the eldest prince who is favored by his father, and his mother has long since died.

After the New Year, he was going to leave Xuanzhou, although he once resented his father's ruthlessness, after all, he was connected by blood. Seeing his father's aging face, he didn't know when he would return, and a trace of sadness and loneliness crossed his eyes.

Qi Tianye waved it, and held another blessing word in his hand, and his eyes swept lightly among the courtiers, originally this word was to be given to the great Sima Li Shidendrob.

Inadvertently, he caught the faint sadness in Qi Han's eyes, a touch of reluctance, that kind of look has also been seen in the imperial study.

Qi Han used to be a son who really loved him, he was going to leave the imperial city to guard his mother's tomb, how deep his love was, how deep his hatred was. I still think of Concubine Rong having adulteration with someone on the bed, and I still hate it in my heart.

That's it, after so many years of hatred, people's lives are gone, and those hatreds will disappear with smoke!

The city of Yizhou is poor and remote, and it is not easy for him to live, and he is afraid that their father and son will never see each other again.

Qi Tianye's voice suddenly became rough, with a hint of vicissitudes, "Bless and King Lang!"

Qi Han suddenly heard that his father had given him the second blessing word, it was incredible, and there was an indescribable other feeling in his heart.

Directly stepped forward and knelt on the ground, holding his hands high to receive the blessing word handed by his father.

"Son, thank you for your father, Emperor Longen. ”

Qi Han raised his eyes to look at Qi Tianye, and saw that there was no trace of emotion in his eyes, and he still had a majestic expression.

Maybe my father is because he is about to leave, and he will never receive the blessing written by him again in the future, and he feels a little lonely when he thinks about it.

My father has been like this for five years, compared with my father's previous indifference, these are enough, and going to Yizhou has ended their father-son relationship.

The crown prince Qiyu on the side saw his father's still indifferent look towards Qi Han, and he was a little anxious, and his father actually missed a good opportunity for his father and son to release their previous suspicions.

"Father, since you have already taken a step, why did you stop again, what are you thinking in your heart?"

Qi Tianye picked up the pen and continued to write the third blessing word, which was also a wave, but the word was obviously not as vigorous and powerful as the first two blessing words.

"Bless the Great Sima!"

Qi Tianye still writes the word blessing one after another, but the word has no form but no god.

Since ancient times, the king's heart was unpredictable, and all people couldn't understand it, and what Qi Tianye thought in his heart at this time, he didn't know that he later made a holy decree that shocked Qi Han.
