The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 366 Great Ming Ceremony
The New Year's Eve in Daming Palace was very lively.

Those theater troupes who were able to take the stage in Fengtian Square also worked extremely hard.

For the artists of Ming Dynasty now, being able to be on a stage like Fengtian Square, even if it is a small apprentice moving some props in the background, is an honor worth bragging about for a lifetime.

Because no one knows whether there will be such an arrangement in Zhengdan next year.

For this performance, these well-known troupes who have been selected have rehearsed countless times, and any mistakes are not allowed.

Among them, if there is any mistake in the drill, the qualification will be disqualified.

After all, this is the highest stage in the troupe industry.

Because there are too many candidates.

It's not just a troupe that can take over, but the integration of the entire troupe industry circle. All the roles are the most outstanding handover and integration.

Such a grand occasion is undoubtedly the first in the industry.

There are many programs, and it doesn't end until twelve o'clock in the morning.

Every time there was a shift change in the middle, someone would report auspicious words from a certain family to congratulate His Majesty on his long live and the Ming Dynasty for eternity.

Every time he heard this, Zhu Yuanzhang would sit in front and laugh.

He knew that every piece of congratulations was filled with stacks of Ming Dynasty treasures.

At this time, he would always subconsciously look at grandson.

And when it was almost the finale, there was a storyteller.

It tells about some situations of Japanese pirates invading the coast.

Similar to the feeling of stand-up comedy, it sounds a little funny, but after laughing, it is easier to let people fall into thought.

Because the people who were invaded by Japanese pirates were miserable, and it was unacceptable just to imagine it.

This kind of program is not happy. Although it is told in the form of jokes, it is full of sadness and does not fit the current atmosphere.

And this program was determined by Zhu Ying, which cannot be changed.

Why tell such a thing on such a day.

Because, this is Nanjing.

The title of Nanjing is the name formulated by the white-haired old man sitting next to Zhu Ying.

Today's Nanjing can be said to be the pinnacle of the entire history, the center of the world, and the capital of the world.

Under this stage, not only the officials of the Ming Dynasty, but also the envoys of all nations.

But only Zhu Ying's heart was filled with strong sadness.

Because it is this city that has lost its prosperity in later generations and has experienced too many traumas.

In the city of Nanjing, Fengtian Square in the Imperial Palace tells about the crimes of Japanese pirates.

It was what Zhu Ying wanted to do a long time ago.

When talking about the crimes committed by pirates along the coast on the stage, what Zhu Ying saw in his eyes was the memorial hall of the previous century, and the heinous crimes he saw.

There are also the wailing of hundreds of thousands of compatriots in Nanjing.

Gritting his teeth, hatred was all over the sky.

All violations should be killed in the cradle in this life.

If you want this Nanjing creature, there will be no more mourning.

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed surprised. When he was talking about the Japanese pirates, he clearly felt that the eldest grandson was not in the right state, full of evil spirits, and seemed to choose someone to kill.

But when I think of Dasun's hatred for Japanese pirates, although I don't know the source.

But as a grandfather, he naturally needs to support him vigorously.

On New Year's Eve, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that such a program was arranged to prepare for the conquest of Japan in the spring and mobilize the emotions of officials.

So after the show ended, Zhu Yuanzhang called Liu He and gave him some soft instructions.

Immediately, Liu He came to the stage and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has a decree to reward you with a hundred coins!!!"

The storyteller kowtowed and shouted long live.

Many officials also understood what His Majesty meant.

There was a hint of gratitude in Zhu Ying's eyes.

In fact, this stand-up comic is really not as good as the previous show. The old man said this to express his support for himself.

The finale of the program is a song, dance and music.

Even if the atmosphere has been reconciled, Zhu Ying can't just think about her own emotions because it's New Year's Eve anyway.

And at the moment when the singing and dancing ended, it happened to be twelve o'clock in the morning, that is, turning night.

Suddenly, countless loud noises erupted from the entire palace, and most of the people trembled before they could react.

The next moment, I saw countless fireworks rushing towards the sky in various parts of the palace.

boom! ! !
Countless thunderous voices resounded in the sky of Nanjing, and millions of people raised their heads one after another.

I saw that the originally dark sky was instantly lit up, and the colorful fireworks looked like peacocks spreading their tails, and like celestial maidens scattering flowers.

The bright petals are pouring down the sky like rain.

Night is like day, illuminating the whole Nanjing.

The people in the house went out one after another, looking at the most beautiful night sky in this life.

It was the most beautiful thing they had ever seen.

Countless people opened their lips, even the most talented scholars were shocked by the scene in front of them, and their minds went blank.

Really:
The smallpox blooms in the middle of countless months, and the five colorful auspicious clouds surround the Jiangtai.

Falling to the ground, the stars suddenly scattered, and the sound of rain came flying in the air.

It's not that no one has seen fireworks. As early as the Tang Dynasty, fireworks and firecrackers had become popular.

But no one has ever seen fireworks that enveloped a city.

Among the foreign ministers in Fengtian Square, Pierma Heima was shocked, but showed deep fear that could not be concealed.

As for gunpowder, his grandfather Timur also attached great importance to it, so Pierma Heima has been exposed to more since he was a child.

Being able to cover a city with fireworks means that Daming has enough ability to cover a city with gunpowder.

The power to destroy a city.

It only takes a moment.

Because the fireworks over Nanjing lasted for a quarter of an hour.

Pierma Heima did not guess wrong. Zhu Ying prepared for this grand fireworks for a long time, and the precious money spent in it was an astronomical sum.

Anyway, Zhu Ying didn't plan to tell the old man, for fear that the old man would feel too distressed if he knew the price.

More than half a month ago, the Gunpowder Department was fully preparing for the fireworks.

And tonight, Zhu Ying even mobilized more than 5000 generals and generals.

Rounding it up, this can also be called a thousand guns.

At present, only the royal family of the Ming Dynasty can have the strength to show such a fireworks effect.

Among them, the precious banknotes really cost a lot, but it is quite enough to deter the envoys of all nations.

Unconsciously, the waists of all the foreign ministers were slightly bent down a lot.

They knew very well that if Daming's army brought such fireworks and placed them in their own city, there would be no possibility of resisting them.

Surrendering obediently is the only kingly way.

Especially those Mongolian aristocrats who profess ministers in name but secretly harbor evil intentions.

This fireworks also made Zhu Yuanzhang drink three cups in a row, and he was in a good mood.

But as for the consequences, Zhu Ying supported her and went to the Qianqing Palace to lie down directly.

"What a beautiful firework."

"If you like it, every year in the future, the night sky in the capital will be in full bloom."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The crowd dispersed, and Ye Yueqing stayed by Zhu Ying's side until the old man was settled, and the two walked slowly in the palace without knowing where they were going.

The sensible Guo Zhong had long since disappeared from sight with the officials and followed him from afar.

The bright moonlight shining on Ye Yueqing's fair face made Zhu Ying's heart shudder.

The throbbing that hadn't been seen for many years was throbbing at this moment.

Silently, the figures of the two also got closer.

For a long time, Zhu Ying has been very indifferent to matters between men and women.

Maybe it's because it's too easy to get, maybe it's because of the hidden concerns in the previous life, the door of my heart has never been opened.

To this day, that wonderful feeling suddenly appeared, catching Zhu Ying by surprise.

In front of the side door of Kunning Palace, the two separated.

Guo Zhong also appeared at the right time.

This is Daming, not the future generations.

Marriage without a clear medium is both hurt and insult to a woman.

Although Zhu Ying could demand it forcefully, he would not be so impatient.

Tonight is destined to be a toss and turn between two people.

And Zhu Yuanzhang slept soundly.

The first day of the first month, the first of the year.

For the palace, it is extremely important.

Especially the convening of the Dachaohui.

The main point of the Dachaohui lies in a big character.

This is the highest-scale court ceremony of the imperial court, and even tens of thousands of officials participated, and those in remote places have to set off several months in advance.

More than [-] regions including Ryukyu, Annan, Chenla, Siam, Champa, Yibei, Wacha, Chuanyuan Yiwang, Hami, Turpan, Huozhou, and Uzang all came to pay New Year greetings to Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty.

This grand ceremony must be fully prepared, and it must be majestic yet elegant, elegant yet majestic, high-end and elegant, low-key luxurious and connotative, and at the same time so many people have to do a good job of security.

All departments must be busy, safety is the first.

Jinwuwei and Jinyiwei are mainly responsible for guards of honor and guards at the Great Court. Jinyiwei must first collect information to nip danger in its cradle, and Jinyiwei has always been in charge of the emperor's guard of honor and guards.

The Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple can't stay out of it either.

"All national ceremonies, suburban temples, sacrificial offerings, court meetings, banquets, sutra feasts, book judgments, calendars, spring, passing on systems, and victory performances are all for their own affairs."

There are regulations on where to kneel and which door to enter from. Just listen to the Ministry of Rites and they will make clear arrangements.

Guanglu Temple was in charge of the banquet, and people traveled thousands of miles to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor. The emperor would never be stingy and not leave anyone for a meal, so after the "Grand Court Meeting" was over, there was a "Grand Banquet".

This year's grand banquet is even more worth looking forward to. After all, yesterday's fireworks showed that everything is likely to be different this year.

Zhu Yuanzhang advocated frugality in the past, coupled with the embarrassment of internal funds, it is naturally impossible to have too many expensive ingredients.

And this year's banquet is almost equivalent to a national culinary competition in Ming Dynasty.

It is impossible for Fengtian Temple to accommodate so many people, so from Fengtian Gate to Fengtian Square, it is densely packed with people, which can be described as a real sea of ​​people.

Those who can enter Fengtianmen, in this year, can be said to be powerful, or have a great reputation.

This kind of busyness, except for some changes in eating, is not much different from the previous arrangement.

There is no need for Zhu Ying to make some special changes.

Boring is boring, but this is related to the royal majesty, and there is no room for negligence.

It didn't count until the end of the dinner at Shenshi in the afternoon.

Then it's time for New Year's greetings.

Zhu Ying paid New Year's greetings to the old man and got a big red envelope.

And Zhu Ying also prepared a lot of red envelopes for brothers and sisters like Zhu Yunxie, Zhu Mingyue, and Zhu Yunqiu.

The banquet for the royal descendants will be arranged on the second day of Zhengdan.

In the palace of King Yan.

Xu Yihua is pressing Zhu Di's shoulders.

"This year's Zhengdan, with the grandson's arrangement, is really different, especially the fireworks, which are so beautiful."

Xu Yihua said with a smile.

She is also a woman, and she also likes beautiful things very much.

I heard that many literati wrote poems constantly for this fireworks display.

Zhu Di listened, and snorted with some displeasure, and said, "I don't know how much money was spent. Such a large amount of gunpowder is probably enough for several battles. Just watching for a quarter of an hour like this is really extravagant."

Xu Yihua had a different idea, and argued: "Bringing down fireworks is comparable to paying tribute ten times, shocking foreign ministers, and at least avoiding ten wars."

"Since ancient times, it has been said in military books that it is the best policy to subdue the enemy's soldiers without fighting."

"Isn't this more effective than killing people on the battlefield and burning lives?"

Zhu Di was a little confused.

He didn't expect his wife to refute him because of the fireworks, so he didn't speak for a long time.

This is his conquest of women's hearts by underestimating the beauty of fireworks.

Such a beautiful thing, women simply cannot resist.

In desperation, Zhu Di had no choice but to stop dwelling on this topic.

"Tomorrow is the big banquet. Did Concubine Ning tell you anything yesterday? I think you guys had a good chat."

Zhu Di changed the subject and asked.

Xu Yihua shook her head lightly and said: "Ms. Concubine Ning is very tight-lipped. At that juncture, I don't want to ask too many questions. But since the empress has agreed, it shouldn't be a big problem, just follow the previous arrangement."

"The key to this, the concubine feels that it still falls on Chi'er."

Zhu Di frowned and said, "Chi'er hasn't come back yet."

Xu Yihua replied; "There is no need to come back too early, it is probably their brothers who are together now, congratulating His Royal Highness and cultivating feelings."

"For Chi'er, if it can make His Royal Highness relax, it will be more effective than Concubine Ning."

"Back then in Beiping, it was Chi'er who had the best relationship with the grandson."

Zhu Di nodded, but felt uncomfortable in his heart.

He didn't expect that in the end, he would need to rely on the help of the son he disliked the most.

But in the current situation, it can only be like this.

The second child and the third child, not to mention Zhu Ying, even their father didn't like him, and the canonization he proposed in the early years was rejected and reprimanded.

After a little hesitation, Xu Yihua said: "The bloody horse that I brought from Beiping this time will be given to His Highness the Grandson when the time comes."

Hearing this, Zhu Di was a little bit reluctant.

That bloody BMW is the best of the best, he got it with great difficulty, but now he wants to give it away.

But after thinking about it, he didn't have anything good to offer, so that was all he could do.

Zhu Di picked up his teacup and took a big gulp.

As long as we can make a decision this time and ease the relationship, everything is worth it.
