Godsend Field

Chapter 364 Dongling
In the Hall of Qinzheng, all the officials did not leave, discussing something in twos and threes, as restless as ants on a hot pot.Everyone was excited and worried about His Majesty's awakening.

The sudden awakening made everyone unprepared, and it was like a blow to the head that stunned everyone!
"I said Bo Keqi, it's really time for our Majesty to wake up!" Shang Si, the Civil Affairs Department, came to the side of the Engineering Department, Shang Si Bo Keqi, and whispered in the ear.

"How do you say it?"

"Didn't you see the conflict between Tianci and the Regent? If His Majesty doesn't wake up again, I'm afraid... If that time really comes, it will be terrible!" Minister of Civil Affairs Shang Si said worriedly.

Bo Keqi nodded, "Who says it's not? Every time I see the Marquis of Tianci arguing with the eldest prince, my heart trembles!"

Shang Si, Secretary of Civil Affairs, shook his head, sat upright, and looked across.The officials from the finance department on the opposite side were also whispering.

"Nade, you said that His Majesty is fully awake this time, will you understand that matter?" the Taxation Secretary Shan Sibalbo asked quietly.

"Don't ask me, I don't know! But no matter who it is in the end, let's not worry about it. We should do our own thing honestly and keep our chair. That's the most important thing!" Budget Secretary Shan Snard sat upright. OK, don't bother with anything else.

"It's fine if you don't talk! I'm not tired after sitting for so long, I'm going out for a walk!" Balbo turned around and stood up, and walked slowly outside the Hall of Qinzheng.

Qinzheng Hall is the main hall closest to the gate of the palace.Balbo was walking on the steps, while the guards standing guard on both sides stood straight and motionless!There were already seven or eight officials outside the hall, greeting Balbo.

At this time, two figures ran in from the front, one was slightly fatter.

"Lord Mesto?" Balbo was startled, and hurried up to salute. "My lord, why did you come to the palace?"

Duke Meister was panting without speaking, and looked ahead anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is waiting for you, hurry up! I won't accompany you!" Said Saphiroth next to him.

Duke Maxtor nodded, walked around the Palace of Qinzheng on his own, and ran towards the rear.Safeiros and Balbo walked into the Qinzheng Palace together.

"Master, you are back, have you seen His Majesty?"

"Lord Sephiroth, is Your Majesty alright?"

"Has Your Majesty explained anything?"

. . . . . .

As soon as Safeiros entered the Palace of Qinzheng, he was surrounded by Shangsi officials, who kept asking and chirping, and suddenly Saphiroth's ears rang, not knowing what to answer.

"That's enough, stop arguing!" Sephiroth roared, and everyone stopped immediately.

Taking a deep breath, Sephiroth glanced at the Shangsi officials around him, "Your Majesty is still very weak, but he is conscious! Also, I am no longer the acting minister of the Ministry of Finance from today. The Duke of Meister is in charge, and now the Duke of Meister is going to the Royal Peace Garden to listen to His Majesty's orders!"

The officials were surprised, especially the officials of the Ministry of Finance. They never expected that the first thing His Majesty would do when he woke up was to change the minister!
Everyone continued to wait quietly in the Palace of Qinzheng.

On the other side of the Qinzheng Palace, in the Royal Ning Garden, Duke Meister almost crawled into the attic, supporting his chubby body with his hands and feet, and stepped heavily on the steps.After a while, the three princes went down from the attic and stood guard at the gate of Yu Ning Garden.

The sun was slowly slanting, it was already afternoon, and there was still no movement from His Majesty!

The three princes walked back and forth at the door, looking anxiously at the top of the attic.In the Hall of Qinzheng, all the officials were impatient, and the officials were tired from sitting, so they stood up and walked back and forth anxiously.

At this time, a servant came in in a hurry, shouting loudly, "His Majesty's order~~"

All the officials immediately stood back to their original positions and listened respectfully.

"His Majesty's oral order is to be able to wake up this time, thanks to the blessings of the ancestors of the past dynasties. However, I know that the imperial body is not working hard, and there is not much time left, so I will lead all the officials to the eastern suburbs to worship the ancestors tomorrow, so as to determine the major events of the country!"

"Wow!" Qinzheng Hall seemed to explode.

Worshiping ancestors is the most important thing for the royal family!

The kings of the Welsh Empire were buried in the royal mausoleum on the eastern outskirts of Ancona, the capital.Every autumn, His Majesty will go to worship to show loyalty and filial piety.But now it's only spring, and it's not yet autumn, so how could you go to worship your ancestors?There is also the saying that the major event of the country, the biggest matter of the Welsh Empire now is the matter of choosing the reserve!
It seems that His Majesty is going to make the final decision this time!
The officials got the order and all left one after another, only Shang Si of the National Rituals Division had a sad face.What a big event His Majesty's worshiping the ancestors is, and he must make a comprehensive arrangement without making any mistakes!But the time is so short, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight!
Into the night
Surrounded by several black shadows, a figure appeared near the palace and walked towards the outer layer.Go all the way to the palace of Marshal of the Empire, Duke Lankers.

Gently knocked on the door and walked in.

Soon in the depths of the Duke's Mansion, a magic lamp was lit in a cabin!Under the dim light, the old marshal was neatly dressed, and he had no intention of going to sleep at all!
"Old Marshal, father and king have talked with you for so long today, what exactly did they talk about?"

"Eldest Prince, Your Majesty is very strange. Although he just got up, you didn't see that he was in good spirits at the end. He talked with us a lot. But the main thing is to listen to the situation of the empire in the past two years, and you as the regent. And the performance of Duke Fuzheng! Then we will discuss how the empire will develop in the future."

"Did the father mention the selection of the heir?"

The old marshal shook his head, "No! Your Majesty never mentioned a single word!"

"I haven't mentioned it!!" The eldest prince stood up unnaturally, rubbing his hands and walking back and forth, with a very confused look on his face.

The magic lamp flickered twice, reflecting the night sky.

The next morning, the sky was bright and bright, and the morning of spring always brings a little bit of cold air!However, this morning did not have the tranquility of the past. The orderly and loud footsteps of ten thousand imperial guards in neat armor woke up all the nearby people.Many people walked out of the room wearing thick coats with their sleepy eyes open to have a look!
On both sides of the official road in the middle and outer floors, many shops have already opened.There are also some vendors pushing small carts selling breakfast, and they have also set up their stalls and stoves early, and the white mist is slowly rising.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" The imperial guards lined up, driving away the traders around!

"And you, go home if you have nothing to do. From now on, the east gate will not be opened. Everyone who wants to go out of the city must go through the south gate and north gate. Don't be afraid to go around the west gate!" One of the captains yelled at the crowd around him.

"Officer, is something wrong?" A bold trader hurriedly packed up and asked casually.

"You country bumpkin ask a lot, let me tell you, our Majesty is awake, and we will go to the eastern suburbs to worship our ancestors soon. The eastern city will be closed for three days from now, and those who want to go out of the city will stay away!" the captain shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty is awake?" All the subjects were delighted at the same time.

"Really?"

"Why do you ask so many questions? We also obeyed the orders from above, and we haven't seen it with our own eyes! Well, get out of the way quickly, and we will make trouble soon, and you, it's time to go home Home, what's there to see!" The captain became impatient.

The peddler pushed the packed cart and disappeared into the small alley, and the people around him also ran back home one after another.

The Imperial Guards breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Not a moment later, there was a sudden commotion and shouting all around, and a large number of people rushed out again.Different from the last time, this time they were all dressed neatly, and their expressions were full of anticipation and excitement.

The squad leader's face changed, "Stop it, stop it all for me! If you step back, whoever dares to jump over the imperial guards will be convicted of assassination!"

The imperial guards hurriedly set up their spears to stop the people on both sides who were about to rush up.

His Majesty woke up, and the news that he was going to go out to worship the ancestors disappeared, and the whole Ancona was boiling over!A large number of people rushed over from all directions, starting from the middle level, all the way to the gate of the outer east city, crowds piled up on both sides of the main official road, and crowded into the next two streets.At first glance, it seemed that the entire capital had rushed to the streets.

Such a vast scene even pales in comparison to the last time the saint came here!
The imperial guards on both sides exerted all their strength against the crowd in the front row.Although the people in the front row are honest and honest, but there are too many people, and the impulsiveness of the people in the rear is likely to generate a huge thrust in the front.

The sun had already risen high, and many people had been waiting for more than two hours, their legs and feet were numb, but they still refused to leave and waited anxiously.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!..."

A loud sound of gongs and drums came from a distance.

The people around immediately boiled up, cheering with their arms raised high, and those in the front row even stretched out their heads to look around.The crowd began to move, and the guards in front immediately felt the pressure of endless pressure, and hurriedly carried it hard.

The sound of gongs and drums was getting closer and closer, and the people became more and more excited, shouting loudly.

"Hold it! And you, all stand back. If anyone frightens His Majesty, see if I don't kill his whole family!" The squad leader yelled, beads of sweat dripping from his forehead.It's not the first time to protect His Majesty's ancestors after serving as the Imperial Guard all his life, but it's the first time he has encountered such a scene. Seeing that the people's sentiments are agitated and almost crazy, the situation is about to collapse.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!..."

The sound of gongs and drums reached my ears, and the excitement of the people suddenly stopped, and they became surprisingly quiet.

Accompanied by the sound of loud gongs, a group of imperial guards came slowly on tall horses.All white horses, dark copper-colored armor, holding a spear and pointing at the sky obliquely.The guards were divided into two teams, and the leader of the guards was Tesker, the commander of the guards!

Following the imperial guards came two rows of servants wearing bright red silk robes, striding past holding high the banners of different colors but all embroidered with the royal family logo.The brocade banners fluttered in the wind, and the royal family's logo was reflected in everyone's eyes.

Following the pennant are colorful streamers that line up side by side in five rows.Worshiping ancestors is the most solemn thing for the royal family. Unlike the black and white flags used by ordinary people, the royal family uses colored flags.

16 people stand on a side of heavy gongs and drums, and a big man holds up a hammer and strikes heavily. The sound of the bronze drum is loud and can be heard clearly from a mile away!

A row of palace guards dressed in yellow came over, and behind them four tall horses pulled a large carriage. The carriage was very wide, and there was no shed on it, but a golden throne of beasts, and a huge one behind. A large bright yellow canopy covers the throne.The old Majesty sat on the throne safely, and his majestic royal robes could not conceal the vicissitudes and sorrows left by the years.The magnificent crown is studded with precious jewels, sparkling in the sun!
His Majesty looked at the front blankly, as if only the road ahead was in his eyes, and everything around him didn't exist!
The palace guards are guarding the carriage closely!

"His Majesty!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Someone among the people shouted, and couldn't help but kneel down.The surrounding people also shouted at the same time and knelt down one after another.Tens of thousands of people knelt down neatly, even more neatly and faster than a well-trained army!
The guards in charge of guarding on both sides were also deeply infected, putting down their spears and kneeling neatly!

"His Majesty!"

The waves of calls were higher than the waves, one after another, endless!

The carriage passed slowly through the crowd, and His Majesty, who was sitting high on it, still had no expression on his face, and he had never even turned his head to look at these sincere and simple people!

A carriage followed closely behind His Majesty. There was no special logo on the carriage, only the icons of the Kate family were tattooed on the curtains on both sides!The officials behind the carriage, usually sitting in a carriage or riding a tall horse, now lined up and followed closely behind.

The entire formation walked out of the city gate in a mighty manner, and many people in the city were still kneeling and shouting, Your Majesty!

It's like seeing off!
On the avenue outside the Dongcheng Gate, the team was slowly advancing, and the destination was the Eastern Suburb Royal Tomb fifty miles away!
The east is the direction where the sun rises, the direction where spring comes, and the direction where all things grow!On the mainland, the east represents vitality, vitality, and hope!

And the imperial mausoleum was set up on the east side of the capital!
The Eastern Suburb Mausoleum was built by the first emperor of the Welsh Empire for his burial after his death.It has a history of 5000 years!The empire has gone through vicissitudes and empires, and it has been passed down to His Majesty's generation, which is already nine generations!
And the next generation of kings will be the No. 60 generation of the empire, a whole Jiazi!
King's Tomb, Emperor's Tomb!Not just a tomb, but also all kinds of buildings attached to it are collectively called mausoleums.The layout of the mausoleum is also very particular. According to the order from south to north, it is composed of stone statues, large stele buildings, large and small stone bridges, dragon and Phoenix gates, small stele pavilions, divine kitchen warehouses, east-west facing rooms, Longen gate, It is composed of dozens of large and small buildings such as the East and West Side Hall, the Longen Hall, and the Liulimen.There are usually mausoleums of queens and concubines near the forehead of the mausoleum.Of course some kings will choose to be buried with their queens!
Each king's tomb is a small building complex, and they will also be named according to the merits and wishes of the king.The tomb of the founding king of the Welsh Empire is called the Yongling Mausoleum.I just hope that the empire can prosper and last forever!The Yongling Mausoleum occupies a relatively small area, but the depth of field is wide and the scenery is beautiful. There is a stone tablet on the main hall of the cemetery, engraved with the achievements of the king during his lifetime!
In addition to Yongling, there are more famous Fuling, Zhongling, Wuling and so on.

There are 58 mausoleums scattered throughout the eastern suburbs. It is impossible for successive kings to worship their ancestors one by one. Instead, an ancestor worship hall was built in front of the eastern suburbs, which enshrines the spiritual tablets of the ancestors of the royal family!
Countless flat stones pave the ancestor worship square, and 58 stone pillars are erected on the square, symbolizing the 58 ancestors!The red carpet went all the way to the entrance of the main hall, and the guards stood on both sides.

His Majesty's carriage stopped in front of the red carpet, and the Eldest Prince and the Third Prince hurried forward, reaching out to hold His Majesty's arm.The rickety body swayed, and with the support of the two princes, he slowly walked towards the main hall ahead!
Behind him, Nero and the sixth prince supported Duke Kate.

The Duke of Meister put on the familiar official uniform of the minister, and the old Marshal Lankers walked behind him side by side.The generals of Shangsi followed closely behind, and the officials walked at the end!

When His Majesty walked up to the main hall, the door of the hall opened, and the spiritual seats of previous kings were inside.His Majesty stopped, his body trembling, and slowly knelt down on the cushion in front of him.The three princes knelt down behind His Majesty.

Ministers, Shang Si, and all officials kneel down together!
"The ancestor worship begins!"

An inner room shouted loudly.

The court ceremonies and music all around played in unison the movement that was only used when the empire worshiped ancestors.

Kowtow to salute, ancestor worship is carried out step by step in the existing procedure!

"Your Majesty, please offer a sacrifice!"

All the officials raised their heads, and His Majesty barely stood up. The majestic royal robe was blown by the wind and stuck to his body, making him even thinner!His Majesty was holding the sacrificial letter in one hand, turned around, and was about to open it when he suddenly coughed sharply.

The servants hurried forward to support His Majesty, and took out the royal chair for His Majesty to sit on.The head of the inner room who presided over the sacrificial ceremony took the sacrificial text from His Majesty, opened it, and read it aloud.

"Aixin, the royal family of the Welsh Empire; Hiram, nine generations of kings kowtow in front of their ancestors!

It has been 15 years since Sheeran ascended the throne at the age of 70.During these 70 years, Xilan was always trembling as if facing an abyss, and he did not dare to relax at all times, for fear of ruining the efforts of previous kings because of his laziness.However, the road is bumpy and the empire is difficult.Kakala was deeply favored by the former king but didn't want to repay it. For his own selfishness, he openly provoked the three major provinces to rebel.Fortunately, the ancestors blessed us, and the soldiers of the upper and lower ranks worked together, and it lasted ten years of war in Pingxi.Afterwards, Fran repeatedly invaded and returned without success.The power of the empire is rising!
Years have passed, and in the past 70 years, Xilan's body is declining day by day, knowing that time is running out, so he came here to pay homage to his ancestors to let him know.Even if the future goes with the wind, there is no regret. . .
