Chapter 42: The New Emperor Ascends the Throne

If Liu Fengxiang is just bothering these ordinary people who have nothing to do with him in the northern Xinjiang, then the eldest prince, oh no, it should be Blakely IV in the imperial capital, and the trouble is how to transition this weird atmosphere. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Blakely III was gone with a big killing, and if there was anyone who was hurt the most in the process - it was not the nobles, but the successor, Blakely IV.

Before leaving, the old emperor didn't know what kind of considerations he had, and he didn't know why it suddenly broke out and carried out a lot of purges on the entire aristocracy.

However, after all, the top echelons of the empire at that time were at least amicable on the surface, everyone worked together to govern the country, and the decrees were smooth.

But after Blakely IV took over, it was found that everything was different.

First of all, let's talk about this enthronement ceremony.

The enthronement ceremony, which was originally a joint responsibility of the Government Council and the Academic Council, was the first step in a necessary ceremony for the emperor.

The Rites Department in the Government Council houses various aspects of etiquette - such as various ceremonies and celebrations, the costumes of officials at all levels, the etiquette of the whole process, the specifications of banquets, and recipes...... and so on, a series of complicated affairs, as well as various scheduling and cooperation with the Academic Council, etc., but now the Minister of Rites said that he was not sick.

The crux of the matter is not so much with the ministers, but with the executives at all levels.

After all, the Minister of Rites is not the person who directly arranges these things, and the matter is ultimately completed by the master of ceremonies and deacons at all levels. But now the crux of the matter is that all the nobles were frightened by the killings of the previous days, and one by one they went home sick -- could it be that Blakely IV had the city guards go from house to house to inspect them, and that they would not make up a knife in bed, but give some medicine in bed?

How can it be!!!

On the other hand, Clement of the Senate is also ambiguous - for the current identity of Blakely IV, Clement said that "the Senate is not ready", what is not ready?

Is Blakely III really dead?

According to the emperor's guards, Blakely IV is said to have almost been angry at that time to go directly to Clement, but he was afraid of the eventful situation now, and it was really not appropriate to make a big move.

In this atmosphere, the enthronement of Blakely IV was postponed again and again.

Originally, Blakely III collapsed in mid-July, and according to the laws of the empire, a state funeral should have been held on the day of the collapse, and the ceremony of the new emperor's enthronement was all planned and completed on the same day - after all, this kind of thing is often only once in decades, and officials of the Ministry of Rites and Rites of the Government Council have already prepared the materials and preparations needed for all this.

But this time it dragged on for ten days, and the nominal ruler of the empire was Blakely III, an emperor who had been drafted by death.

This situation really didn't make Blakely IV half angry!

Because the enthronement ceremony could not be planned, the announcement of the state funeral could only be postponed - otherwise wouldn't there be a very absurd situation?

The old emperor died, and then there was no prince to take over the imperial power?

Every time Blakely IV used the magic mark of the Emperor, his resentment towards the nobles increased.

A bunch of idiots!

Countless city defense troops, patrol envoys, and janissaries went deep into the streets and alleys of the imperial capital to inquire everywhere about the enthronement ceremonies that had been hosted.

After more than ten days of hard work, so many people finally found some citizens who were "said to have experience in the enthronement ceremony" among the people.

At the same time, there are also some middle and lower-level deacons and master of ceremonies in the Ministry of Rites, who are almost held by these soldiers with knives around their necks, and come to the Ministry of Rites to serve the trusted emperor of the empire with trepidation.

It's just that under this high-pressure policy, although this enthronement ceremony looks like that, but if you look closely, you find that it is ridiculous everywhere.

For example, the enthronement ceremony should be filled with a sense of sacred seriousness, but the dish "Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang" actually appeared at the banquet - oh my God, this is a dish that can only be used at the banquet of the canonization queen!

And because of Clement's deliberate stupidity, the "divine right of kings" ceremony, which was supposed to be the support of the Holy See, was also quietly withdrawn.

Blakely IV, was an emperor who was not "approved" by the Holy See.

Although the appearance of the Holy See in the enthronement ceremonies of the past dynasties is only a procedural process, the absence of this scene always makes people feel that the throne of Blakely IV is not so justifiable.

With all his might, Blakely IV finally became the nominal master of the empire.

However, the problem has only just begun.

What about the governors of the provinces?

When the interrogation document was issued, the governors of the various provinces replied in unison: "Sorry, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is seriously ill and has more than enough strength to do so! Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

When the almost identical documents were sent to the palace, the waiters outside seemed to hear the sound of something being broken again—this sound was always so frequent during this time that the waiters were no longer surprised.

Blakely IV, who had fallen over something, not only could not reject the document and continue to question, but could only grit his teeth and write-"Zhuqing is in poor health, and he is still worried about the emperor, and the emperor is very relieved!"

It can be said that at the beginning of Blakely IV's succession, it was difficult for the decree to leave the imperial capital.

After all his orders had been issued, if they did not conform to the will of these governors, they would simply be set aside and left unattended.

In fact, if he knew the state of the Northern Legion, Blakely IV would probably think that the situation of these governors was really too good—they were just pretending to be crazy and stupid.

When the news of Blakely IV's ascension to the throne reached the county town of Hoai, the seven princes, who were still obsessed with Melina's sensationalism, were three points faster in frequency.

"What?"

I couldn't believe the news that the maid had just passed over, but when the maid confirmed it again, the Seventh Prince, who was lying on Melina's body, subconsciously increased his strength.

It turned out that Melina was half disguised, half moaned comfortably, and gradually brought a little pain.

The Seventh Prince was in no mood to pay attention to Melina's feelings at all, and under the blow of this incredible news, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but become even more tyrannical.

grabbed the plump on Melina's chest fiercely, and the frequency of the attack was unusually violent, as if he wanted to completely release his emotions in this behavior.

It's just that when this kind of release is liberated, what you feel is not release, but a more helpless emptiness. (To be continued.) )
