“Why did you get angry out of the blue …” Second uncle Xu tried to reason with his wife.
Xu Qi ‘an glanced at his eldest sister and said, ”
Alright, alright. There’s no need to quarrel because of them. Second uncle, let’s drink.
Xu lingyue said sweetly,
“Big brother, let’s drink.”
She obediently poured him some wine.
Look at that sister from Yunzhou, she only wants to harm you, unlike me, who only cares about big brother.
………
At seven o ‘clock in the morning, the sky started to brighten.
The drums in the palace sounded in unison, forming a Grand movement.
The coronation ceremony was unusually cumbersome. First, the minister of rites would lead the officials to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth for the new king.
After it ended, the new emperor wore his mourning clothes and offered sacrifices to the ancestors of the Imperial temple.
After these two steps were completed, the coronation ceremony officially began.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
The minister of rites led the officials to the Temple of Heaven, the agricultural altar, and the Imperial temple to inform the gods and the spirits of the previous emperors that the new emperor was about to succeed the throne.
After he returned, the ceremonial music was played and the majestic sound of the bell echoed outside the throne room.
The eastern Palace.
Huaiqing put on a large fur crown with the help of the palace maids.
The uniform’s structure was extremely complicated, consisting of a crown, a middle piece, a coat, a black robe, and a woven garment. The crown was made of gold, and there were twelve beads hanging down.
The shirt was painted with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, Dragons, and Chinese insects. There were six patterns on the lower garment, including embroidered algae, fire, rice, Zong Yi, Yi, and Qian, with a total of twelve chapters, thus it was also called the twelve-chapter garment.
After dressing up, the two Palace maids carried a bronze mirror that was as tall as a person and placed it in front of huaiqing.
In the bronze mirror, the eldest Princess had light makeup on and her long brows were drawn, accentuating her heroic spirit.
She was originally a cold and Noble woman, and now that she was wearing twelve-chapter clothes and twelve-chapter crown, she exuded a noble and majestic aura.
Even the head Palace maid, who was usually all smiles, did not dare to breathe loudly at this moment. She lowered her head and brows, as docile as a quail.
There were few women in the world who were so domineering.
An official from the Ministry of Rites stepped through the eastern Palace gate and respectfully said through the curtain, ”
“Your Highness, the time has come.”
Huaiqing grunted in acknowledgment and left the eastern Palace, escorted by the palace maids and eunuchs. Under the majestic sound of the bell and drum, he headed for the throne room.
After crossing the Golden water Bridge and the square, Huai Qing walked on the Imperial carriage and looked at the throne room in front of him. He could vaguely see the throne high up in the resplendent Hall.
What flashed through her mind was yuan jing, who was suspicious by nature and could not tolerate his talented son to be in power;It was Wei Yuan, the great National warrior with white hair on his temples.It was the great Guardian supervisor who had calculated everything;It was Yongxing who was weak, incompetent, and lacked courage.
When she waved her sleeve and sat on the throne, there was no one in her eyes.
It was all in the past!
It would be her time, no, her time with Xu Qi ‘an.
She and he were the two people who stood at the peak of power in Da Feng.
Led by the officials from the Ministry of Rites, the officials entered through the meridian Gate and crossed the Golden water Bridge. They stood on both sides of the Imperial Road in an orderly manner according to their positions.
After that, the Grand Secretary and head assistant of Wuying Hall, Qian Qingshu, presented the Imperial edict of succession and handed it to the minister of rites, who carried it to the bottom of the steps. Then, he handed it to the minister of rites, who placed it on a cloud and delivered it to the eunuch.
A eunuch in a red python robe bowed and took the cloud plate. He then read the Imperial edict to the officials, ”
“Imperial decree:
“In the past, Emperor Gaozu flew to Ji River, swept the area, reached Jing mountain in the East, and spoke of Buddhism in the West. His voice of benevolence and righteousness shook the six directions, swept away the chronic diseases of the great Zhou, and restored the peace of the four Seas. In the past six hundred years, the four Seas had been at peace, and his great achievements had been restored to the human Emperor.
“Brother Yongxing, with the talent of a concubine, managed the great cause, unfilial, muddleheaded and weak, disrespecting the ancestors, not loving the people, flattering the rebels, and angering both man and God.
“I am a woman, blessed by the heavens, the spirit of my ancestors, and I have been ordered to be in danger, and to be a hero. Today, the civil and military officials, ministers, officials, and ministers all came together to persuade him to enter and respect him as the Emperor, to rule Qianli.
“I will ascend to the throne on the 17th of January, and the new year will be named” huaiqing.” Since the ceremony is complete, we should work together to manage the country.”
Finished speaking!
On both sides of the Imperial Road, the civil and military officials knelt down and shouted, ”
“Long live our Emperor, long live, long live!”
The cheers were like a tsunami, deafening.
On the throne, huaiqing looked down on the officials, as if he was the king of the world.
………..
Stargazing tower, Eight Trigrams stage.
Mu nanzhi, who was wearing a gorgeous Lotus-colored long dress, stood at the edge of the eight trigrams stage and gently removed the bracelet on her right wrist.
The wind blew up her skirt and black hair, making her look like a fairy from yaotai.
She raised her right arm, and her sleeve slid down, revealing her white wrist that was covered in frost and snow.
Her slender fingers made a flower-picking gesture and mu nanzhi closed her eyes, muttering, ”
“I hope that the flowers in the capital will bloom, and the fragrance will fill the world!”
In the void invisible to the naked eye of mortals, the seed of life overflowed from her body and fluttered in the wind.
Floating across the river, the willow tree by the river sprouted.
Floating past the courtyard, the courtyard was filled with a myriad of colors.As it floated through the streets and alleys, the vegetation grew wildly and the flowers bloomed in an instant.
From a bird’s eye view, one could see the brilliant colors of purple and red spreading all over the capital. The floating fragrance of the flowers made one feel relaxed and happy.
………
The history books of later generations recorded:
On the 17th day of the 1st month in the 1st year of huaiqing, the Empress ascended the throne. Flowers bloomed in the capital in an instant, and a faint fragrance spread for ten miles. Auspicious signs fell from the sky, and the people of the capital were ecstatic. They went out of their doors, knelt on the streets, and cheered long live.
What was not recorded in the history books was that on the day the flowers bloomed all over the city, Xu yinluo was in the Directorate of Celestials ‘stargazing tower, arranging flowers for an entire day.
………
Mu nanzhi’s vision darkened and she fell limply to the ground.
She didn’t fall to the ground, but into Xu Qi ‘an’s arms.
“Let’s take a break!”
Xu Qi ‘an put her arm around the old lady’s waist. She felt that this was the best thing in the world, and she could only do this.
Mu nanzhi lay limply in his arms, her head spinning as she mumbled, “
