Chapter 531: The King's Ceremony, the Vision Passed on to the World [Asking for Votes]
Since the Yin Shang Dynasty, the grander the event, the more it is necessary to sacrifice to heaven and earth, which is a manifestation and inheritance of the divine right of the monarch, implying orthodoxy.
That's the meaning of the canon.
Huo Qu was sick and followed the customs of the villagers, and was pulled over by Liu Qing early in the morning. The waitress was helping Liu Qing dress up, and she was busy matching Huo Quai's clothes.
The temple used by Liu Qing to place clothes is paved with logs, and the clothes of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter are built, which are divided into different areas.
There are also headdresses, ornaments and other objects.
Liu Qinghe and the officials in charge of the relevant etiquette had already helped Huo Qubing set the style of clothing in advance.
But early this morning, Liu Qing seemed to have changed his mind again, and pulled Huo Quai's illness to compare the accessories outside the official robe.
I tried all kinds of big clothes, and finally chose the dark red big gun, which was matched with the outside of the official robe, the inside was the tiger head wrong gold armor, the belt was personally selected by Liu Qing, the hollow pattern was enclosed in bronze, and the head was a phoenix wing purple gold crown.
Huo Qubing let Liu Qing exchange it for him, and also stretched out his hand to compare it on his head, which means that there is a pair of feathers missing, which is similar to the two pheasant feathers on the top of Sun Wukong's head, colorful, and everyone will pay attention to it after wearing it.
Liu Qing saw that there was no one in the room except the maid, so he leaned over and pecked him lightly in the face, smiling and groaning.
She is really happy, happier than Huo to get sick herself.
In addition to the innate status of a princess, her husband laid thousands of miles of mountains and rivers for the Han Dynasty, and today she is crowned king, Liu Qing regards it as one of the most important days in her life.
The husband and wife were all dressed properly, and Liu Qing was wearing a black palace dress with dark red lines.
This is the unique clothing of the princess of the clan, which can only be used during major rituals, solemn and dignified.
She and Huo Qu were sick and went out of the house, the genius was bright, and the stars and moons did not go.
At the gate of the mansion, even Zhuo Qingke, as a concubine, was also allowed to attend today's king ceremony.
And she is responsible for holding Huo Huan, and will be next to Huo Quzhi and Liu Qing, at the core of the entire sealing process.
As a subordinate, Bai Nanyu, who also participated in the king ceremony, waited side by side with Zhuo Qingke outside the mansion.
The family, under the escort of the pro-army, boarded the car and headed for Weiyang Palace.
The canonization ceremony will be held at Jongmyo Temple.
……
Rome thousands of miles away.
In the main hall, the great patriarch stood under a stone statue nearly three feet high.
His cloudy eyes were staring at the idol.
This is actually a blasphemous act, and how can mortals look at God?
But it is strange that the Great Elder, who often behaves similarly, is the highest level of divine favor, and no one can shake his position.
"Let you collect information about Han, what do you gain?" The Grand Patriarch asked in a deep voice.
The person he questioned was a priest and the leader of the Senate's team in charge of investigating information.
Rome's knowledge of Han mainly comes from the relay of the news that Mithridates II originally received from Zonghengdao.
But before the real confrontation with Han, the Grand Elder, the Archon, actually realized that Han was very powerful.
They have been investigating Han through various channels for a long time.
"Our people crossed Parthia, the border of the Great Moon Clan, and after entering a place called the Western Regions, they did not dare to go further east."
The god attendant replied: "The Great Patriarch once said that during the time of Alexander, that heaven and earth were protected by a mysterious aura, and it was difficult to cross. Now, the aura that supported them seemed to be gone, but entering that land, they could still only linger on the periphery. ”
"The people I sent out have sent something back through the Book of God."
The god attendant stood up in a kneeling position, holding a black leather roll in his hand.
When the roll was unfolded, purple light overflowed.
On that leather scroll, facing the direction of the heart of the Han Dynasty further east, there is a purple qi machine that reflects the heavens and the earth, which cannot be peeped into and is difficult to penetrate.
"When our forces enter that area, they are suppressed by heaven and earth, and if we force ourselves to go deeper, it will be difficult to keep our whereabouts undetected."
The big elder's cloudy eyes seemed to be a little unclear.
He leaned forward, leaned forward, probed his thin neck, and carefully looked at the weather on the leather scroll: "The territory of thousands of miles to the east, is it all Han soil?"
Are there any forces that are hostile to them? ”
"No, the news we got from our investigation is that all the strong enemies we had in the past were defeated by Han.
Now, the enemy countries are all Han soil. ”
The divine attendant said: "They don't know what they are doing these days, and the luck of the heaven and earth is showing signs of climbing again. ”
The elder thought for a moment, stretched out his thin fingers, pointed to the east, and spoke at an old and slow pace:
"God said that all that he wanted to know would not be hidden, and would appear before him the truth under the fog."
The void flickered like a glimpse, slowly presenting an image, which was part of the scene in the Han Dynasty far away.
In the direction of Chang'an, the national fortunes of the Han Dynasty converged, like an optimus pillar.
The Great Elder soon discovered that even with his divine power, he could not see the details of the hinterland of the Great Han from a long distance, and could only watch from afar.
And the purple luck was so heavy that the great elder secretly thought: The Han of the East is gathering the qi of the four directions!
————
Chang'an, the sky is dawning.
Huo Quzhi and Liu Qing came to Weiyang Palace.
Before the ceremony officially began, the ministers and the core personnel of the clan would gather in the emperor's study first.
The corridor outside the study was full of officials and clan personnel below the rank of Jiuqing, as well as some relatives.
When Huo Quzhi and Liu Qing walked into the study, Wei Qing, Dong Zhongshu, and Gongsun Hong also just came in on the front foot.
Liu Che, who was sitting in a dragon robe, was looking forward to his self-pride, and his eyes were compelling.
Next to him is the queen Wei Zifu, who rarely comes to the study, wearing a phoenix crown and a phoenix robe, with a thousand demeanors.
In the study, there were also ministers and clansmen divided into two columns, each with a low seat.
"Since the illness is coming, let's go, go to the temple." Liu Che waved his hand and got up first.
On the right side of him is the queen, and a little behind the left side are Huo Quzhi and Liu Qing.
Then there were the ministers and the families of the clans.
In the clan, Liu Shun, the king of Changshan, stood in the foremost position.
He quietly glanced at Huo Quai's back, and then withdrew his gaze.
On the square of the front hall of Weiyang Palace, people from all over the world come to watch the ceremony.
They were divided into regions, the Baiyue in the south, the nomadic tribes in the north, and so on, and the envoys who watched the ceremony alone exceeded 2,000 people.
When the emperor passed by the Weiyang Palace corridor in front of the square, thousands of envoys bowed in unison.
Liu Che glanced at the envoys from all sides, walked non-stop, and said to Huo Quai: "Today's weather, the fortunes of our Han Dynasty are like dragons, and it is difficult for all parties to raise their heads, but we can't be careless.
Later, I will invite envoys from all sides on the outskirts of the city to watch the forbidden army perform martial arts, and you will be ready to get sick. ”
Huo Quzhi said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, everything is ready." ”
Liu Che's eyes narrowed slightly: "In the future, at least once a year, all parties should gather in Chang'an to watch the process of banning military exercises."
It is also necessary to arrange for all departments of the forbidden army to patrol and hunt on behalf of the sky, go to various places to inspect, and show the soldiers of our Han army. ”
Huo Quzhi nodded slightly.
With the breadth of the territory of the Han Dynasty today, it is very necessary to show military might.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there was the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the past, and the Huainan changes in the future, and the emperor paid special attention to this aspect.
The country's borders are so large that only a strong military power can maintain the unity of power.
"In addition to maintaining the strength of our own Han, we should also weaken their own inheritance system, weaken their self-cohesion, and strengthen the sense of belonging of all parties to our Han, so as to solve the problem from a deeper level." Huo went to the sick road.
"This matter will be over when the king is over, and the ministers will be summoned to discuss it again."
On the side of the main hall of Weiyang Palace, the right side is behind the temple.
When the emperor and Huo Qu came to the hospital, the ceremony of sealing the king immediately began.
In front of the temple, Jiang Yan, Taibu and other officials of the big yin and yang family have been lighting the fire since last night according to the ancient rites of Yin Shang, in order to show that they have heard from the heavens.
At this time, Taibu, who was in charge of the Dahan Bu and other matters, stepped forward and asked the heavens.
It is a tortoiseshell divination method in which a tortoiseshell is burned with a fire that depicts many hexagrams.
When the tortoise shell is burned by the fire and falls to the ground, it will show the heavenly hexagram, in order to ask the good luck and the culprit, and learn whether Huo Qu is sick and crowned the king, whether it is recognized by heaven.
"Qing'er, I haven't been quite understanding, at this time, if a bad hexagram comes out, how can I justify myself?"
Everyone was solemn, Huo Qubing slipped down and chatted with his daughter-in-law.
Liu Qing glared at him with his pretty eyes: "When you ask the heavens to ask for a hexagram, you dare to talk nonsense." Let the royal brother hear, you have to punish you. ”
Queen Wei Zifu's ears were pointy, and he didn't look back beside him: "He knows what's going on, and he's just having fun with the imperial sister." ”
The emperor also answered: "According to the ancient rites handed down from the past dynasties, if you are not lucky, you should continue to divination, and then ask the good luck." ”
"It's all the way until it's done.
If it is like when Yin Shang was about to die, the fortunes of the country declined, and continuous questioning of the hexagram was a big culprit, then cheating forcibly turned the hexagram into a good omen, so as to boost morale. ”
Huo Quzhi secretly told Liu Qinghe Zhuo Qingke, who was in the front row to participate in this kind of national ceremony for the first time:
"Actually, I asked Jiang Yan, he and Tai Bu fiddled with all kinds of divination utensils day and night, and had special techniques, in this kind of occasion, they can ensure that every time is auspicious, and there will be no omissions."
Zhuo Qingke was dumbfounded.
This kind of national gift is actually cheating.
"Your Majesty, the hexagram is "Qian", and the Gen is on the Kun, which is the image of a mountain underground. The mountain is located under the ground, which is used to symbolize the virtue of "humility". It means that this time the king is bestowed by heaven and auspicious. ”
Taibu said solemnly about the results of his cheating: "This hexagram is second only to His Majesty's ninety-nine auspicious elephants for divination of state affairs, and it is very suitable for the king." ”
Then Jiang Yan stepped forward to divinate the five elements hexagram, and also got the auspicious hexagram.
Liu Che personally recited the sacrificial text to the heavens, praising Huo Quai's exploits in opening up the territory and defending my mountains and rivers.
He was also hereditary and could be passed on to Huo Huan.
Then according to the steps, sacrifice to the heavens, knock the bell and write jade slips, convey the wishes of the emperors of the world, pray that Huo will be sick as the general of the Han Dynasty, lead the Han army to be invincible, and defend the land and defend the territory for the Han Dynasty.
The emperor and Huo Quai, Wei Qing and other ministers worshiped the ancestors and emperors and ancestors together.
In this process, the national fortune of the Han Dynasty surged and climbed, and the fortune of the eight directions gathered.
The first vision appeared in the Weiyang Palace.
In the gloomy purple air, there is a dragon of national fortune, swimming and rising.
In the city, the burrow is shining, the ground is full of golden lotus, and the auspicious atmosphere is everywhere.
In front of the temple, the emperor and Huo Qubing are located in the center of luck, and the two are blessed by the national fortune and bathe in the world.
On the ground, a wisp of purple intent gushed out from Liu Che's eyebrows, and the dragon soul was born.
The emperor purple dragon took off into the sky, blended with the fortunes of the country, and Huo Qu was sick and surrounded by the four elephant beasts manifested by the yang god, and the dragon groaned in the sky.
The sky is like a reversal of time and space, and in the sky above Chang'an, there are stars reappearing.
A force of soldiers linked to the stars, shining thousands of miles.
People from all over the Han Dynasty watched it and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
And the number of qi gathered by the people formed a tide of fortune, helping each other, and the country of Han rose and became more and more vigorous.
Outside the front hall of Weiyang Palace, thousands of envoys from all walks of life were dumbfounded.
Sima Qian, who was responsible for recording the history books, wrote in the history books: In the summer of the third year of Yuanzhen, the emperor turned into a true dragon, and the champion Wang Bingfeng shook the stars, and he was harmonious. The national fortune of the Han Dynasty, like the eternity of the moon and the rise of the sun, begins again and again, entering a new stage......
In Rome, when the emperor unleashed a dragon roar, the picture of the manifestation of the great elder quietly shattered, and it was difficult to get a glimpse of the slightest sign of the great Han.
In Weiyang Palace, Huo Qubing and the dragon soul transformed by the emperor received their breath one after another and returned to their bodies.
"This time I was crowned king for you, it was very smooth, and no one came to interfere with my Han national fortunes."
"My cultivation is never useful."
The emperor seemed to be a little disappointed, and suddenly asked, "Go to the sick, if I go to the imperial expedition, what do you think will be the scene?" ”
Here it comes...... Huo Qu was sick.
In history, Liu Che did have a time when he emulated Emperor Gaozu and drove his own expedition.
The emperor was a little itchy, so he moved his mind to do it himself.
"The minister's practice of the art of war, and the way of using strategy to defeat the enemy, are mostly inherited from His Majesty and uncle."
Huo Qubing did not directly persuade him, but changed his way: "The minister's expedition is to go on behalf of His Majesty." If Your Majesty marches in person, it will be no different from triumph.
But the country cannot be without a king for a day, if His Majesty personally conquers, thousands of miles, and the government is abandoned for several months, it is a loss that cannot be made up after winning the war. ”
