"The emperor has ordered an auspicious day to be crowned in three days!"

When this news was announced, it instantly spread throughout the aristocratic class of Xianyang, attracting the attention of countless people.

Just because the crown ceremony was the most important etiquette for aristocratic men in ancient times.

The crown is the beginning of the ceremony.

It is only after the crown ceremony that a man is officially coming of age.

Even if he is a king of a high country, he can only grasp power after being crowned.

Qin Shi Huang, who rules the world today, is the most typical example.

He ascended to the throne of Qin at the age of thirteen, but because he was too young to hold power, all the affairs of Qin were taken care of by his mother and Xiangbang Lü Buwei.

That's why there will be a situation where Lü Buwei's power leans towards the government and the opposition, and he poisons the palace, and the king of Qin can't control it.

Even Chang Poison not only fornicated with the Queen Mother, but also dared to drink in front of other courtiers, saying "I am the king's false father!"

As soon as Zhao Tuo arrived in front of the crowned hall, he heard a call, turned his head and saw it, and found that it was his "old brother".

CRRC government order Zhao Gao.

He was standing not far away at the moment, looking at himself with a smile.

Suddenly, Zhao Tuo's mind flashed the little Hu Hai he had only seen a few days ago, and his eyes couldn't help but be cold.

But in an instant, he regained his composure.

With a smile on his face, Zhao Tuo walked over and saluted Zhao Gao, "Zhao Tuo has seen his brother, I haven't seen him for a long time, is my brother okay recently?"

"Oh, the virtuous brother is now a lord of the great princess, and he has made Princess Shang the emperor's son-in-law, how can such a noble status salute me, a lowly person."

Zhao Gao hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Zhao Tuo's palm, preventing Zhao Tuo from saluting, and said humble words in his mouth, but the smile on his face couldn't be stopped.

Zhao Tuo smiled and said, "What did my brother say, when Zhao Tuo first entered the palace in the past, my brother didn't despise me and took care of me everywhere, and Zhao Tuo has always kept this kindness in his heart."

"Don't say that Zhao Tuo is just a big chief now, even if he becomes a marquis and a liehou in the future, he should call you a brother."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao's eyes narrowed with laughter.

Just based on Zhao Tuo's words, he felt that what he had done before was worth it!

"Oh, Brother Xian's words really moved my heart, there are so few people in the world who can be like Brother Xian, who is respectful but not arrogant, and still tells the truth."

Zhao Gao praised, looked Zhao Tuo up and down again, and sighed: "I still remember that when we first met, you were more than seven feet, but now you have become an eight-foot husband, and you need me to look up!"

Zhao Tuo smiled slightly.

As Zhao Gao said, when he entered the palace, he was only fifteen years old and more than seven feet tall.

Now that six years have passed, Zhao Tuo has also become an eight-foot man, so he is even taller than Zhao Gao, and it is no wonder that Zhao Gao is full of sighs at the moment.

The two chatted for a while, and Zhao Gao said, "Don't delay here, the crowning of the eldest son is a big event, it's good to go to watch the ceremony quickly, don't go late, it's not beautiful."

Zhao Tuo replied and said goodbye: "If you have time in the future, you should drink with your brother."

"Of course, Brother Xian, let's go."

Zhao Gao urged, and watched Zhao Tuo say goodbye and turn around and go to the palace where Lang Wei was standing, and he couldn't help but show envy on his face.

Zhao Gao thought of his origin.

The mother was tortured, and the world was despicable.

Even though he Zhao Gao worked hard, he was appreciated by the emperor with his talent for swords and pens, and became a regular servant and a close minister, serving as the commander of the CRRC government.

But he is just a petty official after all, don't look at the emperor's favor on weekdays, and he can still draft an edict for him, but when it comes to a major event like this crowning the son, Zhao Gao can only stay outside, and he can't get close.

If it weren't for Zhao Tuo, he wouldn't have felt much, but now with Zhao Tuo as a comparison, Zhao Gao once again felt the humility of his status.

Once the emperor dies in the future, he Zhao Gao will not have a high position, and he will definitely be beaten into the mortal dust, and he will definitely be reduced to a little person who is nothing.

Zhao Gao looked at Zhao Tuo's back in the distance, as well as the ministers who were invited to watch the ceremony one by one.

"Zhao Tuo is a remnant of the Zhao Kingdom, a fellow assassin. But with hard work, within a few years, he went from a pawn who had nothing to the current general Zhao of the whole country, admired by all the people, and became the emperor and princess."

"I, Zhao Gao, also want to be like him."

Zhao Gao's face was full of envy, his eyes were slightly red, and his hands were clasped together.

In his mind, he thought of the scene in the past when he was implicated in Fan Yi's affair and was sentenced to death by Meng Yi.

If it weren't for the emperor's pity for his usual loyalty, and Zhao Tuo opened his mouth to intercede for him, I'm afraid that the weeds on his Zhao Gao's grave would be several meters high.

He clenched his fists and muttered.

"I also want to be like Zhao Tuo, climb up step by step, and climb to a very high level."

……

"The pillars of Zhangtai Palace are bigger than those of Xianyang Palace, if the two of them go around the pillars here, they will definitely not be able to grasp it."

As soon as Zhao Tuo entered the main hall of Zhangtai Palace, he was shocked by the grandeur of its interior, especially staring at the thick pillars of the negative building, and some strange thoughts couldn't help but pop up in his head.

However, Zhao Tuo quickly calmed down, looked around, and saw many ministers stepping in.

Ordinary people have to talk about their dignity and humility, not to mention the crowning ceremony of the emperor's son, and the etiquette of all parties is more stringent.

Zhao Tuo greeted the ministers who were familiar with him in the palace, and then walked to the seat reserved for him and sat down.

Unfortunately, his opposite was Tingwei Li Si, and the two looked at each other and smiled their heads.

After a while, the emperor was carried into the palace by Lang Wei and sat on the main seat.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"

After the ministers saluted, the crowning ceremony of the eldest son Fusu officially began.

With the praise of the messenger, Fusu, the son who had not tied his hair and was not crowned, walked from outside the hall with a solemn expression and a serious posture.

After he reached the steps, he saluted the emperor on the emperor's couch.

"If nothing else, Fusu is really the one most likely to become the prince."

Zhao Tuo thought to himself.

In the ritual law, the so-called "son-in-law is crowned in the air, and the generation is also".

That is, the crown ceremony of the eldest son is held on the steps to symbolize that he will take charge of the family in place of his father in the future.

Qin Shi Huang did not establish a queen, and Fusu could not be regarded as a concubine, but he was a well-deserved eldest son.

For hundreds of years, except for a few special circumstances, the Qin State basically followed the primogeniture inheritance system.

There are grandchildren, but there are no grandchildren.

With the guarantee of the patriarchal system, in the absence of a son-in-law, Fusu, the eldest son, has an advantage over other brothers in terms of inheritance rights.

Zhao Tuo didn't know if Qin Shi Huang in history was also crowned for Fusu on the steps of Zhangtai Palace.

But in this era, after being awakened by Zhao Tuo, Fusu, who completely drew a line with his relatives of the Chu family, seems to have been appreciated by the emperor.

There is no standing prince, but crowning on the steps of Zhangtai Palace is itself a hint.

At this moment, with the announcement of the praiser, Zongzheng, as the guest of honor, walked up.

Zong Zheng is a drooping old man, full of gray hair, and his position is one of the nine kings, which is generally held by a person of high moral standing in the royal family, and is in charge of royal relatives.

The eldest son of the emperor performed the crown salute, and the guest of honor in charge of crowning was naturally none other than Zongzheng.

The so-called crowning is that the guest of honor wears a crown for the recipient and ties his hair, representing formal adulthood.

The crowning is generally three times, the first time is crowned with cloth, the second is awarded with a leather pen, and finally the knight is awarded.

After each crowning, the guest of honor reads the congratulatory message to the recipient.

"On the auspicious day of the month, the first Canadian dollar is served, the young character is abandoned, and the virtue is followed. Shou Kao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu."

Zhao Tuo watched Lao Zongzheng put on a crown for Fusu, and muttered words full of blessings.

The emperor on the emperor's couch also looked at his eldest son with a gentle face.

"It's nice to have a father's child."

Zhao Tuo looked at this scene and was very envious in his heart.

It's a pity that before he crossed over, the cheap father was killed by King Zhao and Guo Kai, making him a fatherless and motherless child, and his life was very bitter.

Who is entitled to enjoy the happiness of this kind of parents holding a crown ceremony for their son.

In Zhao Tuo's envy, Fusu's three crowns have been completed.

After reciting the last greetings, Lao Zongzheng stepped aside.

Fusu saluted the emperor on the emperor's couch.

"Now that you have been crowned an adult, you should be encouraged."

Qin Shi Huang's words were calm and encouraging.

"The words of the father, the son will obey them."

Fusu felt his father's affirmation and encouragement, his face turned red, and he promised it.

After the crowning, the ministers raised their wines

Fusu celebrates.

"Congratulations on Childe's crowning."

Among the many congratulatory ministers, Tingwei Li Si smiled very happily.

Fusu is the most beautiful man in the audience except for the emperor.

It will also be his Li Si's son-in-law!

He was very happy.

At this time, on the emperor's couch, the emperor's voice came.

"Zhao Tuo."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was immediately silent.

All the ministers were stunned, and they didn't know how the emperor could call the name of the eldest chief Zhao Tuo at this time.

"The minister is here."

Zhao Tuo was also stunned, and immediately saluted.

Qin Shi Huang's gaze glanced at his son, and finally fell on Zhao Tuo's body.

Look at this young man who is the same age as his own son.

Looking at the crown on his head, the emperor's mind recalled the surprises and contributions that this young man had brought to the Qin State and to him.

In the battle of Yan, he sacrificed a giant cannon to break the Yan capital, sacrificed his life to capture the Yan prince Dan, and intercepted the secretary of Yan.

Cutting Wei, there was a great victory in Xingyang, and the two sons of Wei were captured.

The first time he attacked Chu, he made a great contribution in the defeated army and saved his lost face.

The second time he attacked Chu, broke 100,000 Qi troops, killed Xiang Yan, and captured and killed the traitor Xiong Qi and returned.

Vadai, captured the two kings, and broke the 100,000 army of the Huns.

Conquering Qi, he broke the Qi army of 300,000 in a battle, forced the king of Qi to surrender, and settled the land in a few months, making a perfect end to his great cause of unifying the world.

In addition to the great achievements, there are also various invention contributions such as the method of manure, the curved plow, and the pasta.

Thinking of this son's exploits, the emperor's heart surged.

"No one crowned him, but he put on the crown of the crane by his own ability."

But that's not the most glorious.

The emperor's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said, "Come here."

"Yui."

Zhao Tuo's voice trembled a little, and he faintly had some conjectures in his heart.

Under the gaze of all the ministers in the palace, he walked in front of the emperor.

The Emperor stood up.

"Take it off."

"Yui."

Zhao Tuo replied in a trembling voice, stretched out his hand to untie the crown, and took off the crown on his head.

At this moment, all the ministers in the palace opened their eyes wide, and their eyes showed an incredible color.

No way?

Not really!

Li Si swallowed his saliva, he had already thought of that possibility.

"Emperor, you actually favor him to such an extent?"

Gongzi Fusu also watched this scene, but there was no jealousy in his eyes, but a smile in his eyes.

At this moment, the emperor stood up and reached out to take Zhao Tuo's crown.

In front of the ministers of the palace, he said to Zhao Tuo: "The crown ceremony is also important to people."

"Although you have been crowned by military merits, you have not been crowned, and you have no way to show your dignity and humility."

"Today, I will crown you."

The emperor took the crown and put it on for Zhao Tuo with his own hands.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Tuo knelt on the ground, feeling the pair of big hands tying the tassels for him, and the gratitude in his heart had reached an incomprehensible level.

Although this is not the procedure for the crown ceremony, the emperor said that it is the crown ceremony, and that is the crown ceremony.

The emperor crowned it with his own hands, what more could the husband ask for?

Zhao Tuo's heart was pounding.

You know, the crowning is not done by the father.

Even the many sons of Qin Shi Huang could not enjoy the treatment of the emperor's father crowning them.

I'm afraid that in the world, he is the only one Zhao Tuo, who was crowned by the emperor himself.

This glory, this appreciation, is enough to make him very grateful.

In the palace, the ministers were already full of shock, and after being shocked, they could only sigh with envy the emperor's reward for the chief

Know.

"I still underestimate the emperor's favor for him, and I must not compete with this son in the future!"

Li Si whispered in his heart, his eyes full of jealousy.

At this time, Zhao Tuo had already returned to his seat.

Looking at the emperor on the couch, his eyes were already a lake of mold.

"A man is young, and he must be crowned if he marries."

"After the crown, you may marry a wife."
