Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 296 The Big Wedding
As soon as the emperor Jinkou opened, the major event after the establishment of the throne naturally became the major event in the last season of the fourth year of Chuping.

However, although he was mentally prepared, he never imagined that the emperor's wedding would be so cumbersome.All the affairs of civil and military officials are governed by etiquette: the Taiwei is awarded the title and reads the policy, the Sikong and the general are the supervisors, the Taichang Master of Ceremonies passes on the ceremony, the Zongzheng treats the princes, the Dahonglu welcomes the nine guests, the eunuch supervises the making of the phoenix chariot, Da Si Nong Dian counts the money, Guang Luxun guards Zigong... This is still a situation where there are vacancies for Situ and Weiwei in the Sangong Jiuqing, and the reduction of the number of court ministers. upside down.

Not to mention the ministers of the imperial court, princes and kings from all over the world will travel thousands of miles to Beijing to congratulate them.What made Liu Xie even more indignant was that the vendors in Chang'an's square market even played the gimmick of the emperor's wedding and started selling the whole place.What's interesting is that these days there are people who really don't know how to do business. Those local tyrants who spend a lot of money really seem to be buying people's hearts for the emperor, and a large number of goods are sold at a loss.

In this way, Liu Xie asked weakly when Tai Chang's big wedding would be held.Mr. Zhong Fu, who had just hugged Liu Xie's thigh, was full of energy, and triumphantly assured Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, don't worry. Although the situation of the Han Dynasty is not as good as in previous years, everything is simple. But after all, it is the first happy event for the Tian family. , even if the old minister stays up all night, he still needs to make this matter beautiful, and it will take at least three months of planning."

Well, it's more than October in the cold winter, and I will prepare for another three months, and it will be next year directly.

By the way, when it comes to next year, Liu Xie suddenly remembered that at this time next year, the imperial court will change the year name.Historically, Liu Xie didn't know why the Han Dynasty changed the year name, but now he knows that the Manchu Dynasty celebrated the emperor's wedding, and then began to rule the court justifiably, so he gave it a year name full of expectations—— Xingping.

That’s right, after Dong Zhuo’s fall, Chang’an’s peace, and the Kwantung’s victory in Chuping, now everyone from the courtiers to the common people sincerely expects them to live a prosperous and peaceful life—in all the trivial matters of the wedding, Liu Xie only felt that this matter was most to his heart.

Finally, when the thick white snow melted under the first ray of sunshine in early spring, on the first day of the first year of Xingping, the imperial court held a grand queen ceremony.

On this day, Weiyang Palace was covered in festive red everywhere, and Liu Xie was pulled from the bed at the third watch, and he was pulled by the master of ceremonies like a marionette throughout the day, not a sacrifice to heaven. To sacrifice to the ancestral temple is to parade through the streets like a monkey to receive congratulations from the people.After going back and forth to change dresses six times, he finally sat down on the dragon chair in the front hall of Weiyang Palace.

What Liu Xie couldn't bear the most in the ancient ceremony was not the tedious and boring process, but the torture of the concept of "preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires".For the sake of the solemnity of the ceremony, the masters of ceremonies all seemed to be forgetful, and did not consider the basic physiological needs of people at all.

Hungry can be tolerated, thirsty can also be tolerated.But the problem is that people have three urgencies, such unbearable things, and they have to race against time to solve them quickly, and more often than not, they still have to hold back—this kind of hungry and holding pain makes Liu Xie's heart full of anger He didn't even know when he would erupt suddenly.

However, when he saw Fushou who was dressed in full dress and surrounded by female officials, he suddenly had an indescribable realization, as if all these tortures were justified.

I remember on the first side, in the small pavilion by the Xuanwu Pool, Liu Xie saw the daisy lingering in his sorrow... At that moment, the sun shone down on Phnom Penh, which was a kind of happiness in itself.

But today, Fushou dressed up is already a peony in full bloom.She was wearing a palace attire in a bright red dress, and a palace gauze that was also extremely red.What met Liu Xie was a beautiful neck with fair skin and a clearly visible collarbone.The pleats of the skirt flowed down to the ground like the brilliance of the red sun, stretching more than three feet, making Fushou's every step more graceful and graceful.

The three thousand blue silks were tied up with golden ornaments to form a slightly complicated hairstyle, which really lived up to Fushou's surprisingly beautiful hair. The hairpin stuck in it was the golden hairpin that Liu Xie gave her. .The female officials also used carbon black to draw willow leaf eyebrows on Fu Shou, which further brought out her fair and delicate skin, and her charming eyes were full of brilliance in the movement of eyes.Dab red lip red on the lips, the whole Fushou is as beautiful as if there is no trace of fireworks in the world, like a nobleman from the heavenly palace descending from the mortal world.

Liu Xie stared at Fushou obsessively, and suddenly a familiar picture appeared in his mind... Beside the small pavilion in the sunny Yeting, a daisy stared at him, and whispered doubts: "That Is he my future husband?"

It turned out that the fate of the two of them was doomed more than two years ago.

It wasn't until the sound of vigorous ritual and music that Liu Xie's mind was brought back to reality.At this moment, Fushou has already walked under the nine-step jade platform.Leng Shouguang, the servant of Zhongchang, held a piece of silk yellow silk in his hand, unfolded it and recited the match made in heaven between the two, praising:
"In the past, Hongmeng was opened up, and yin and yang were materialized. All things are nourished, but humans are the primates. The children love each other, and the books and rites are passed on. Today, the marriage is done with the ceremony, and the trust is known to the world. Three prisons and food, and a drink together. The world is the proof , the name of the sun and the moon.

After today's ceremony, don't be ignorant of your son, and make the community safe and healthy.We will share the glory and share the adversity.May the sound of Guanju sing long, and the sound of flute long and phoenix bring auspiciousness.Never leave and never give up a song of Luanfeng seeking huang, with one heart and one mind and not afraid of Huayue's fairy palm.

Lovebirds, Lian Lizhi, Husband and wife Hui, and Bing Dilian.The plants and trees in the world are beautiful and beautiful, which can be compared with true love.The majesty of the mountains, the brilliance of the bright moon, the sky lasts forever, the mountains are high and the waters are long. "

After Leng Shouguang finished reading, Fu Shou prostrated himself in front of Liu Xie, performing six sues, three kneelings and three prostrations.Afterwards, Fushou looked at Liu Xie on the dragon chair and remained silent for a long time.Just when the female official thought that Fu Shou had forgotten the etiquette, Fu Shou opened his mouth slowly, and said solemnly word by word: "My concubine Fu Shou congratulates the emperor for ten thousand years, and the Han Dynasty will rejuvenate."

Logically speaking, Fu Shou's words actually only need to say He Tianzi Long Live.But after she said the phrase "Han Dynasty Zhongxing" on her own initiative, all the officials immediately respected her.And this soft word like blowing over Chen Xiao was deeply imprinted in Liu Xie's heart, he got up and bowed deeply to Fu Shou.

Fushou accepted Liu Xie's gift calmly, which is not in line with the rules of etiquette at all.However, none of the officials in the court came forward to criticize, and they all thought that it was only natural for the two of them to perform such courtesy as a monarch and minister.

After Liu Xieli finished, Fu Shoucai stepped back and stood up.The Taiwei Ma Rixun stepped forward to confer the seal of Fushou, and the Zhongchang servant and the eunuch hurriedly knelt down to accept it and passed it on to the female officer.After the female officer stepped down, Fushou bowed down again and called her concubine to thank her again.

Afterwards, Liu Xie on the dragon chair suddenly felt something, and walked down the nine-step jade platform without warning, and led Fu Shou to the front of the throne with his hand.After the two looked at each other, they turned around and looked at the officials with a tacit understanding.For a time, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty saw only a pair of Bi people standing in the court hall, as if the whole stretching world was in the eyes of these two people.At this moment, there seemed to be the sound of a fish leaping and a phoenix crowing in my ears.In front of the boundless, countless auspicious clouds lingering and churning in the sky...

In the ancient Empress Dowager Ceremony, there has never been an emperor who respects and favors the empress so much.And in any generation, there is no queen who dares to share yin and yang with the emperor so calmly.In an instant, no matter whether it was the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, or those princes and ministers who came all the way to celebrate, they all stared at this unprecedented scene and opened their eyes wide.

Fortunately, Leng Shouguang, the Zhongchang servant, saw that the two emperors and queens who did not play cards according to common sense really disturbed the process of the grand ceremony, so he hurried forward to save the scene, and chanted loudly: "The emperor welcomes the queen and ascends the throne, and the world returns!"

As a result, the civil and military talents of the Manchu Dynasty woke up like a dream, and they bowed down and congratulated loudly: "The harmony of Yin and Yang, the harmony of heaven and earth, and the prosperity of the Han Dynasty!"

After that, Da Li finally returned to the original program.Washing ceremony, prison ceremony, marriage wedding ceremony, chapel ceremony, and hair tie ceremony were held one by one.The emperor and the empress have behaved quite well this time, and they have never overstepped the rules.However, in the eyes of everyone, these etiquettes full of profound meaning always feel that they lack a little flavor.

It wasn't until after the ceremony was over that the emperor and the empress leaned on the same side again, and the aspirations of the world of Kyushu were clearly conveyed in their eyebrows. After they were impressed by the temperament and charm of this couple, they suddenly understood:

It turned out that this was their emperor and queen.

It turned out that this was the beginning of the revival of the Han Dynasty.

Perhaps, no matter how far and how difficult the road ahead is, the couple will only start from here firmly until they reach the end where they will be bathed in brilliance and glory...
