Peng Wangfu, backyard family temple.

Zhou Sheng stood respectfully in front of the door of the family temple, saw Wu Chengsi and Wei Siqian coming, and arched his hand and said: "Da Si Li, Da Zongzheng, please inside." ”

Wu Chengsi and Wei Siqian nodded slightly, and then walked into the Peng Wangjia Temple.

In the wide and solemn family temple, the sides are full of bright yellow curtains.

Three high incense sticks wafted with curling green smoke, and the five tablets were lined up and down, and Wu Chenghe's gaze instantly froze.

From bottom to top, they are: Peng Si Wang Yuanze, Gaozu Taiwu Emperor Yuan, Shizu Yuan Emperor Yu, Taizu Jing Emperor Hu, Yizu Guang Emperor Tianxi.

The Temple of the Son of Heaven is seven, and the Temple of the Princes is five.

In the family temple of King Nanchang and in the Taimiao, except for the difference between King Peng Si and Emperor Taizongwen, the other Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Shizu, Emperor Taizu, and Emperor Yizu are all the same.

Wu Chengsi's breathing instantly became solemn.

He had just taken up the post of secretary of the Ministry of Rites not long after.

The family temple of the princes and kings is the first time to come.

Even if it weren't for the fact that he was now the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and the family temple of King Peng, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to take a look.

Glancing at Emperor Gaozu's spiritual seat, Wu Chengsi immediately bowed respectfully.

Even if he is now a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, if he was rude in front of the spiritual throne of Gaozu, Shizu, Taizu, and Yizu, then any imperial historian can impeach him to death.

It was at this time that heavy footsteps sounded.

Li Xuan, who was dressed in a purple five-python five-chapter round-necked robe, walked into the family temple with a solemn face with a black seven-beam crown.

……

Li Xuan nodded slightly at Wu Chengsi and Wei Siqian, who were standing on the right side of the spiritual seat, and then walked directly under the spiritual seat.

Both nodded in return, then looked up.

Li Yuanjia, the king of Han, who was wearing a purple nine-python five-chapter round-necked robe, walked in with a black nine-beam crown.

Wu Chengsi and Wei Siqian bowed solemnly at the same time.

Li Yuanjia nodded slightly, then walked to the upper left of the spiritual position, and after standing still, he bowed slightly to the spiritual position.

……

Li Yuanjia turned around, his eyes fell on Li Xuan, and he said in a deep voice: "Nanchang Wang Xuan." ”

"The minister is here." Li Xuan bowed, and then solemnly knelt down on the yellow dragon silk futon.

Li Yuanjia then turned around again, then looked at the offering table, picked up three high incense sticks from it and lit them, and after bowing three times to the spiritual seat, he handed the high incense to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan knelt on the futon, holding high incense in his hand, and looked at the five-sided spiritual position above with a solemn face.

"Minister, Han Wang Yuanjia, tell the ancestors." Li Yuanjia took out a book of music from his sleeve, then opened it and placed it on the offering table, and said: "Today, there is Prince Peng, Wang Xuan of Nanchang, who is knowledgeable, broad and strategic, destroying Tibet and pacifying the western frontier; Thousands of miles away, guarding the economic system.

In the first year of Emperor Yonglong, on September 21, the edict decreed that King Peng, the heir of the king, opened the mansion, and today I would like to tell the ancestors. ”

Wu Chengsi breathed a sigh of relief, what was held today was the gift of Li Xuan's heir, King Peng.

Although the emperor has already issued an edict in the current dynasty, the ceremony of the heir to the throne requires both the clan and the Zongzheng Temple to go through the ceremony.

It is precisely because today is the gift of the heir that it does not involve the things of the court, and Li Xuan's other positions are not mentioned.

What is the ambassador of the pacification of the Luo Dao, the head of the march of the Luo Dao, the protector of the capital of Fanzhou, the history of the assassin of Fanzhou, the general of the right guard of the inspection school, the guest of the prince, the doctor of Jin Ziguanglu, the bachelor of the Hongwen Pavilion, the upper guard, and the champion general.

Not a word.

……

King Han continued to arch his hand and said, "Tell my father, King Peng Si, my ancestor Emperor Gaozu Taiwu, Emperor Shizu Yuan, Emperor Taizu Jing, and Emperor Yi Zuguang. ”

Li Xuan bowed down and read: "Tell my father King Peng Si, my ancestor Emperor Gaozu Taiwu, my ancestor Shizu Yuan Emperor, my ancestor Taizu Jing Emperor, and my ancestor Yi Zuguang Emperor." ”

"Minister, Nanchang Wang Xuan."

"Minister, Nanchang Wang Xuan."

"Today, King Peng."

"Today, King Peng."

"May my father and ancestors bless me, my life will be smooth, loyalty, filial piety and health, my children and grandchildren will be prosperous, and I will have both blessings and blessings."

"May my father and ancestors bless me, my life will be smooth, loyalty, filial piety and health, my children and grandchildren will be prosperous, and I will have both blessings and blessings."

Li Xuan finished reading the last sentence and kowtowed three times in a heavy voice.

Li Xuan raised his head and looked at the incense burner on the offering table.

The high incense in the incense burner happened to be extinguished at this moment.

"Feast!" Li Yuanjia suddenly shouted, and the next moment, Li Xuan subconsciously got up, inserted Gao Xiang into the incense burner, and then knelt down again, bowing deeply.

Li Yuanjia stood aside and shouted in a deep voice: "Take off your hat and take off your clothes." ”

"Whoa!" Li Xuan bowed, and then took off his seven-beam crown and a purple five-python five-chapter round-necked robe, which turned out to be a gold-silk robe with a black background.

Li Yuanjia put the arranged seven-beam crown and python robe on the offering table, and then took out a purple nine-python five-chapter round-necked robe from the tray on one side.

Li Xuan stretched out his hand to take it, and then draped it on himself.

The black nine-beam crown was placed on the tray, Li Yuanjia held up the tray, nodded, and said, "Get up!" ”

Li Xuan bowed again, and then stood up.

"Okay!" Li Yuanjia looked out of the family temple.

Li Xuan nodded to Wu Chengsi and Wei Siqian, who were standing on the side, and then turned around and walked outside.

Li Yuanjia immediately followed, Wu Chengsi and Wei Siqian glanced at each other, and also followed.

……

In the lobby of the front yard, Li Yuanliang, King Huo, Li Yuanming, King Shu, Li Lingkui, King Lu, Li Yuanying, King Teng, Li Zhen, King Yue, Li Shen, King Ji, Li Jing, King Zheng, and other princes and princes of the court, as well as princes, all stood on the left side.

Ouyang, Liu Jinyu, Li Zhizhao, Li Zhiming, Li Jinxia, and Ouyang Youming, his mother Hu, Liu Yuanlang, Zhou, Zhao Gong, Cui and others stood on the left side.

Outside the lobby, Di Renjie, He Yiqiu, Laisui, Qiu Zhenmu, Zhou Qian, Su Baotong, Yao Chong, Song Jing and others watched from a slightly closer distance.

Farther away, there are more relatives and friends of various families in Chang'an, tiptoeing around.

At this moment, Li Xuan, who was dressed in a purple nine-python five-chapter round-necked robe, walked into the middle hall solemnly.

Li Yuanjia held the black nine-beam crown in his hand and walked to the right side of the middle hall, while Wei Siqian, the secretary of Zongzheng Temple, stood under the middle hall.

Wu Chengsi stood on the left side of the middle hall, looking at Wei Siqian calmly.

Wei Siqian took out a holy decree from his sleeve, then held it high, and said solemnly: "Li Xuan, the king of Nanchang, receives the decree." ”

"Command!" Li Xuan stood in the middle of the middle hall, bowed his hands, and then knelt on the ground.

"Emperor Tang Dynasty order: Nanchang Wang Xuan, with deep knowledge, wide and strategic, wiped out Tubo and pacified the western frontier; Thousands of miles, guarding the economic system, can be the heir of King Peng, 5,000 households. ”

"Commandment." Li Xuan bowed again.

Wei Siqian looked at Li Yuanjia, the king of Han on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Crown." ”

Han King Li Yuanjia bowed slightly, and then walked in front of Li Xuan, Su Zang held the tray in his hand and followed the side.

Li Yuanjia took off the black nine-beam crown from the tray and slowly put it on Li Xuan's head, and said at the same time: "Awarded the knighthood, with the righteousness of the year, with the order of the month, the salty gar suit; Brothers are there, in order to become a virtue, the astragalus is boundless, and it is celebrated by the sky. ”

Li Yuanjia tied the string on Li Xuan's jaw, took half a step back, looked at Li Xuan, and said with a complicated expression: "King Peng!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Xuan looked forward, as if he saw many tablets enshrined on the family temple at a glance, and finally bowed to the ground in a heavy manner.

Wei Siqian once again opened a new holy decree and said in a deep voice: "Emperor Tang Dynasty order: Jin Jinchang County Gong Zhizhao is the king of Jinchang County; Jin Fuchang County Lord, Fuchang County Lord; Princess Liu of Nanchang, Princess Peng; Princess Peng Ouyang, for the concubine of Peng Guo, the rest is like a system, admire this! ”

Ouyang took Liu Jinyu, as well as Zhao'er and Xia'er, and bowed to the ground at the same time: "The ministers are grateful, Your Majesty has a long life." ”

"The ministers respectfully receive the holy decree, and Your Majesty will live forever." Everyone in the courtyard bowed down at the same time.

Wu Chengsi stepped forward and shouted: "Licheng, everyone get up." ”

"Whoa!" Everyone in the courtyard stood up at the same time, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Li Xuan moved forward, bowed his hand to Wei Siqian, then left, to Wu Chenghei, and the kings, and finally to the right, to Li Yuanjia, the king of Huo, and all the relatives of the family.

"King Peng." Everyone returned the salute in unison.

Li Yuanjia took half a step forward and said to everyone: "There is a banquet in the front yard, everyone is seated." ”

Everyone bowed their hands, and then slowly exited the lobby.

Li Yuanjia nodded at Li Xuan, Li Xuan nodded in response, then looked at his son Li Zhizhao, and said solemnly: "King Jinchang County, come with your father." ”

Li Zhizhao subconsciously glanced at his mother, Liu Jinyu smiled and nodded, and Li Zhizhao arched his hand and said, "Follow my father's order." ”

Li Xuan took a deep breath, then walked to the backyard.

Li Zhizhao followed closely.

Before coming to the family temple, Li Xuan pushed the door away, and only after Li Zhizhao entered, did he turn around and close the door.

Li Xuan stood in front of the tablet, looked at the ancestral tablet above, bowed down and said: "Prince Peng, heir Peng Wang Xuan, with his son, Wang Zhizhao of Jinchang County, visit the ancestors." ”

Getting up and walking to the left, Li Xuan looked at his son, who had just turned four, and nodded, "Kneel." ”

"Whoa!" Li Zhizhao walked to the futon, and then knelt on the ground.

Li Xuan picked up two sticks of high incense from the offering table, lit them, turned to look at Li Zhizhao, and said in a deep voice: "My Peng Wang's lineage originates from your grandfather, the twelfth son of Emperor Gaozu, and King Peng Yuanze.

Ruzu was born in the fourth year of Emperor Wude of Gaozu, and was first crowned King Jing, and after ten years of Zhenguan, he was renamed King Peng.

Your father, born in the third year of Emperor Xianqing, the second year of Longshuo, the king of Nanchang, yesterday, the first year of Emperor Yonglong, the heir of King Peng, a total of sixty-one years,

Ru, born in the second year of Emperor Yifeng, was born as the Duke of Jinchang County, and yesterday, in the first year of Emperor Yonglong, the king of Jinchang County.

Today, I told my ancestors that he would inherit the family lord and the heir of King Peng, and he would not let the family lord fall aside. ”

Li Zhizhao subconsciously looked up at Li Xuan, and Li Xuan reached out and handed Gao Xiang over.

Li Zhizhao took it, then looked ahead, and said in a deep voice: "I, Wang Zhizhao of Jinchang County, tell the ancestors that he will inherit the family lord and the heir of King Peng one day, and will not let the family lord fall aside." ”

After Shen Shen three kowtows, Li Zhizhao inserted high incense into the incense burner at Li Xuan's signal.

It was also at this time that the high incense that Li Xuan had inserted into the incense burner before burned out.

……

Walking in the courtyard, Li Xuan stretched out her hand to pick up her son, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "As a father, most of the time is not at home, you must always listen to your mother's words, but also listen to your sister's words, read more, don't play around, and when you become an adult, there is a place in the whole world where you can play freely." ”

"Zhao'er knows." Li Zhizhao's face was hard-working.

Li Xuan smiled and said: "You are now the king of the county, and you are not the same as your father, when you do things on weekdays, think more about your mother, if there is anything at home, you have to stand in front of your mother and share his worries." ”

"Zhao'er remembered." Li Zhizhao nodded seriously.

"At most, it will be five years at most, and the father will be transferred back to Chang'an, and when the time comes, the father will teach you well again, although the father is not knowledgeable, but he can still see through it and will not succumb to you." Li Xuan laughed.

Li Zhizhao nodded a little vaguely, it was obvious that he didn't fully understand the meaning of Li Xuan's words.

The hustle and bustle in the front yard had already been heard, Li Xuan stopped, looked at Li Zhizhao and said, "Remember, from today onwards, my family is also a family of two kings." ”

Li Zhizhao nodded as if he didn't understand.

Li Xuan couldn't help laughing, and then stepped into the hustle and bustle of the front yard.
