Chapter 642: The First Day Ceremony Seven

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Xiao Han didn't know if the firecrackers in the middle of the night had disturbed anyone else, but the sound of firecrackers that had started going off since before dawn made Master Xiao never close his eyes again!

He came back from the palace in the middle of the night, had a laugh with a large family, and had a meal of dumplings. Xiao Han was very tired before going to bed.

But as soon as I closed my eyes, my ears began to crackle and crackle. Xiao Han was so angry that his teeth were itching. He really wanted to lose two pounds of it* so that these people could hear enough at once!

But I can only think about this. Just when Xiao Han buried his head deeply in the quilt, Xiaodong came over and told him to get up.

With his panda eyes, Xiao Han rarely got angry, which disappointed Xiaodong, who was almost completely clothed.

If I had known better, I would not have come in wearing these canned clothes. In order to wear them, I had to wait half an hour in advance...

With the help of clumsy Xiaodong, Xiao Han dressed neatly, hurriedly cooked a bowl of noodles, and then walked out of the house.

At this time, it was just dawning outside, but there were already many people on the street busy paying New Year greetings.

In addition, there were some people who had not finished setting off the firecrackers and were throwing bamboo poles into the brazier. Xiao Han's eyes were crackling when he saw it, and he wanted to take out a gun and throw it in together to let them know the sin of disturbing people's dreams.

It's huge!

The fool ran to catch the carriage, and Xiao Han, standing at the door, took a deep breath of the morning air.

Although it had a smoky smell, it was much better than the air that had been stale all night in the room. A ray of morning light shone on the door behind him, making the bright red couplets particularly bright.

Happy New Year,

Jiajiehao Changchun.

This is the first Spring Festival couplet originally recorded in history. Xiao Han chose to hang it here, showing some respect for the rigorous history.

This Spring Festival couplet was provided by Xiao Han, but the words were written by a famous person in the capital! There is no way, if Xiao Han were to write it, he would probably throw away the gate... What a shame!

Xiao Han slowly opened his eyes and saw that the fool hadn't come over yet, so he turned around and admired the couplet.

He is worthy of being a famous person in the capital, and this ten dollars is well spent!

This thick and full black ink, this flying dragon and phoenix glyph! Combined with the bright and ruddy thick paper, it is very pleasing to the eye.

The carriage came, Xiao Han reluctantly glanced at his door, and then climbed into the carriage.

But just after driving a few dozen steps, he accidentally discovered that there were so many Spring Festival couplets in the neighborhood?! And not only were the Spring Festival couplets the same style, but the words on them were all the same!

Happy New Year,

Happy Festival Changchun!

"I'll kill you! Is piracy so crazy? This old man dared to sell my creativity, not counting the ten thousand dollars he received from me!" Xiao Han stared at the couplets posted along the way, thinking about the "famous master in the capital" in his heart.

"He cursed like a bloody idiot.

This person is so shameless. He has made his own money, but he uses his creativity to make other people's money. He has no professional ethics!

However, Qi returned to Qi, and it was more important to go to court now. Xiao Han had to suppress his mood and wait to settle the ledger with him later. He would have to spit out whatever he had eaten by then!

Mao Shi is the time when officials go to court, and the term "Dian Mao Yi" comes from this.

Because of a delay in the morning, Xiao Han arrived at the palace a little late.

At this time, no one else could be seen except him at the spacious Zhuque Gate.

"It's broken, it will be late!"

Seeing such a scene, Xiao Han felt guilty. Before the carriage stopped, he had already jumped off the carriage and ran towards the palace gate!

Running all the way, the day's exercise has been completed in the morning!

What made Xiao Han feel lucky was that when he was climbing up the high steps of Tai Chi Palace, he met several colleagues.

Anyone who has been to school knows that the happiest thing for those who are about to be late is to see their accomplices!

After all, in this way, even if you are really late, it is better to have someone with you than to carry it alone!

Following these officials who were not very familiar with each other, Xiao Han came to the Tai Chi Hall. Xiao Han looked into the hall and found that the ministers inside were still chatting casually. He knew that he was not late.

Heaving a sigh of relief in his heart, Xiao Han rushed in from behind everyone in a familiar manner. He was about to find a corner to hide and catch up on his sleep, but unexpectedly bumped into Tang Jian head-on.

"Xiao Hou? Where are you going? Let's go. Come with us to the front. Today is a big day. Don't be careless!"

When Tang Jian saw Xiao Han, he was shocked and hurriedly pulled him forward. He knew Xiao Han's nature, but he was more casual in the past and no one cared about him, but today there is no room for any mistakes!

"I, I'll do it in the back, what are you doing in the front?" Xiao Han was reluctant to be pulled by Tang Jian. He always thought that these things were just a formality, why did it have to be so troublesome now?

"Nonsense! Everyone's position today is determined. If you don't stand there, you will leave a gap for others to see!"

Tang Jian glared and scolded Xiao Han. Of course, this was also because he had a good relationship with Xiao Han. Otherwise, if it had been someone else, no one would care about you!

The old fritters in official circles have always been able to clean up the snow on their own, and it would be considered kind to not sprinkle more frost on your tiles.

"Okay, isn't it just for one morning? I can bear it!" Xiao Han heard what Tang Jian said and knew that he couldn't run around today, so he could only let him pull him through the crowd.

"Okay, we're here! That's it, don't move around. Many foreign countries came to watch the ceremony today, and they saw the joke. Your Majesty won't be able to spare you!"

Tang Jian ignored Xiao Han's extremely reluctant tone and led Xiao Han to the third row in front. He then let go of his hand, and then warned Xiao Han, and he quickly returned to his seat.

"Hey, everyone, happy New Year!"

After Tang Jian left, Xiao Han put on a smile and greeted the colleagues around him cheerfully, even though he didn't know any of these people!

"Happy New Year, Xiaohou!"

Seeing Xiao Han being so polite, the people around him returned the favor one after another. For a while, the atmosphere here was extremely harmonious.

Speaking of which, today's ranking is indeed a bit strange. It is not at all based on the previous separation of civil and military affairs, but simply based on the size of the official titles, arranged one by one.

At this time, Xiao Han was surrounded by officials from the Tang Dynasty wearing light red official uniforms, and they were basically twice as old as him!

Xiao Han's first thought since he stood here was: The head of the official in the platoon of the Ministry of Rites must have been kicked by a donkey!

This wasn't Xiao Han scolding them deliberately for nothing! It was just because among this group of light crimson people, he, a young man in a red official uniform, stood alone, as obvious as a mallet standing in a wheat field! Is it possible?

Those people in the Ministry of Rites are all blind, can’t they see?

Xiao Han didn't know that the current situation was indeed caused by an oversight by the Ministry of Rites.

Li Yuan's decree to allow Xiao Han to wear red robe was a scorpion's shit, the only one!

In the entire Tang Dynasty, he was the only one who could wear the official robes of the fourth rank across ranks, so when the Ministry of Rites arranged the order, they completely forgot about this!

But now, the people from the Ministry of Rites have also discovered this.

Dou Zhong, the minister of etiquette, was still looking at the orderly queue with pride. When he accidentally saw Xiao Han, his eyes straightened! He was about to jump over and drag Xiao Han away, but unexpectedly, at this moment, the praying bell

Ringed.

One hundred and eight bells ringing throughout Chang'an, this is the most solemn ceremony in the Tang Dynasty! Except for the unique merits, only the first day of the year can be rung so many times.

"This... ugh!" Dou Zhong watched helplessly as Li Yuan stepped on the bell and walked out from behind the screen. He could only sigh and bowed his head, pretending not to see Xiao Han.
