Chapter 43 The idea of beating the people around me, don't think about it
The ceremony after the seal is not over for a while, and it is to read out the edict, announce the world, and welcome the gift; It was again the reading of the edict of sealing.
After the canonization ceremony, the emperor should change into a crown, and the queen should change into a ceremonial dress and pay homage to the Fengxian Palace. It means to tell the ancestors: I am married, I have a wife, bring my daughter-in-law to show you these cards.
After worshipping the ancestors, the emperor and the queen returned to the palace, and they had to join together (drink a glass of wine).
Of course, this process is also more cumbersome. To put it simply, change clothes, sit in the east-west direction, drink the wine offered by the female official, eat the dishes on the table, eat the staple food, drink again, and eat again, and the etiquette is over.
Zhu Youxiao was also taught by officials of the Ministry of Rites to know that this joint (drinking a glass of wine) was different from the way of drinking with his arms hooked in later generations.
The correct method in the court is that the emperor himself pours a glass of wine, takes a small sip and hands it to the empress, and after the empress drinks it, she also pours a glass of wine, takes a sip and gives it to the emperor.
Well, this seems to be more intimate than the kind of later generations, and the meaning of kissing the mouth through the cup is woody?
The big wedding was completed, and according to the rules, Zhu Youxiao also had to go to the Huangji Palace to give a banquet to entertain the ministers and officials.
Eat and drink well, drink and eat! It's all with the share, and a meal of wine and food is indispensable.
The emperor definitely doesn't have to toast from table to table like an ordinary groom official, and no one dares to pour him.
But there is also a holy decree to be read out, mainly to reward the relatives of the queen and the imperial concubine.
According to royal practice, the queen's father, that is, the national abbot Zhang Guoji, must at least be crowned an earl.
But Zhu Youxiao hesitated before, because according to the report of Uncle Wei, the superintendent of Dongchang Factory, Zhang Guoji was very close to several civil officials of the Donglin Party.
The Donglin Party is really pervasive, investing everywhere and planting everywhere!
Zhu Youxiao believes that if Zhang Yan is not elected as the queen, how can those Donglin Party civil officials look down on Zhang Guoji, who is just a prisoner?
Just like betting on the Emperor of the Apocalypse in the "Palace Removal Case", the Donglin Party can be said to have turned over in one fell swoop, and gradually formed a dominant situation in the court.
Political speculation, planting eyes and ears, the Donglin Party is also very slippery.
It's just that that's all they can do. Even the historical carpenter Zhu later saw that something was wrong, released the old dog Uncle Wei, and cleaned up Zhang Guoji in every possible way.
Influencing the people around me to probe or influence my thoughts and decisions. Zhu Youxiao came to such a judgment and did not think it was strange.
Don't think that the civilian clique is weak and will only talk about people. If they want to harm people, even Conan, they can't catch their black hands, and they can't find evidence of their crimes.
Historically, Emperor Taichang's death was quite suspicious; As for Carpenter Zhu, the possibility of being assassinated is also relatively high.
Although there is no real evidence, judging from the consequences of Zhu Carpenter's death, the eunuch party fell, and the "righteous men and gentlemen" occupied the court and had the right to speak, and the civil official group was undoubtedly very suspicious.
There are always people who want to harm me!
Zhu Youxiao didn't feel that he was cranky, and he was also very careful about the protection of personal safety. What kind of divine dew, what elixir, I have culture, you can't deceive me.
It is precisely because of his vigilance and fear of the civil official group that Zhu Youxiao does not want the harem and their relatives to be close to the civilian official group.
After receiving Uncle Wei's report, Zhu Youxiao originally wanted not to give him a knight, so he would beat his father-in-law in this way. But after thinking about it, he felt that it was more direct, maybe better.
didn't make others guess, Zhu Youxiao directly sent the internal official to Zhang's mansion and told Zhang Guoji that as a foreign relative, I was very displeased with the court officials, so I should do it myself!
It is estimated that this admonition scared Zhang Guoji enough, although his daughter has been designated as the queen, and the emperor's son-in-law can't return it if he wants to. But the emperor's son-in-law is unhappy, can his daughter have a good life when she enters the palace?
From Zhang Guoji's original intention, he did not have the idea of befriending officials and strengthening the power of the Zhang family. He also wanted to explain to the emperor's son-in-law that it was not me who befriended them, but they who rushed to tie me.
Zhang Yan knew about this, but she was also uneasy.
Before he got married, he made the emperor's wife unhappy, and when he entered the palace, he was afraid that he would not be entertained.
In history, she bears the name of a queen, but she is not favored, she is neglected, and even many people are abolished!
was admonished by his son-in-law and complained by his daughter, Zhang Guoji was remorseful and afraid, and hurriedly wrote a petition for guilt, and then stayed away from the civil officials.
Invite to feast and drink, and feel unwell; Greetings and gifts, see you and don't receive.
Zhang Guoji is honest, he just wants to appease his son-in-law's dissatisfaction, so as not to make his daughter ugly when he gets married, and he can enter the harem smoothly.
In history, Zhang Guoji is probably because of his proximity to the officials of the Donglin Party, and he will end up in the Apocalypse, as the national abbot, but he is not allowed to be knighted, which can be regarded as a record of the Ming Dynasty.
To say that Zhang Yan is not favored in the palace, but the powerful Uncle Wei and the Hakka family have not been able to move her as queen several times.
Therefore, Zhang Guoji couldn't understand why his son-in-law didn't treat him so much.
Now it's okay, to make it clear, if you don't change it, not only will you not be knighted, but you will also find fault in the future!
"Ministers thank the Holy Grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Zhang Guoji secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he had sealed himself in Tui'en's decree, kowtowed and thanked him, and also knew that he had "made a mistake" and was temporarily forgiven by the emperor's son-in-law.
Raising his head, Zhang Guoji saw Zhu Youxiao's intriguing gaze, and he seemed to be smiling. It's okay to be knighted, but if I can seal you, I can deprive you again.
Zhang Guoji seemed to understand what his son-in-law meant, got up and took a few relatives to the banquet honestly.
"Zhang Guozhang, please sit here." Sun Shenxing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, stood up and greeted warmly.
At this table, there are Shoufu Ye Xianggao, Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong, Yang Lian and others, all of whom are the backbone of Donglin, or Donglin Daxian.
If it was before, such a courtesy would make Zhang Guoji overjoyed.
is just a prisoner, who is expensive because of a woman, and can share the table with the court boss and Donglin Daxian, what a face!
But now, Zhang Guoji only felt that there was a cold swishing gaze staring at him behind him.
He hurriedly thanked Sun Shenxing and said, "Thank you Lord Sun for the invitation, it's just that a few relatives of the Zhang family have never seen the world, so they have to take care of it, don't make trouble." ”
After speaking, Zhang Guoji gave up his hand again and led a few relatives to a table a little farther away. I don't know if it's a psychological factor, Zhang Guoji felt that the gaze behind him disappeared, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Zhang Guozhang is really cautious." Sun Shenxing watched Zhang Guoji walk away in a daze, turned around and smiled bitterly at the few people on the table.
Gao Panlong smiled faintly and said: "Today is a big day for Zhang Guozhang to marry his daughter, and it is reasonable for him to be afraid that his relatives will lose their honor in front of the king." ”
