Return to the Imperial Study Room from Shangyang Palace.
Vaguely, Su Mingzhe could hear the roaring sound of gongs and drums coming from near Luohe River.
"At this time, I'm afraid the dragon boat is almost at the end, right?"
"Wanhou is becoming more and more talented now, but she also loves to play more and more!"
Thinking of Empress Wan's gentleness, Su Mingzhe moved his index finger wildly, wishing he could call the two Master Attendants to come in and finish what he had not finished at Empress Wan.
However, thinking that the prince would be coming after the dragon boat racing event, Su Mingzhe had to suppress the ridiculous thoughts in his mind.
Half an hour later.
The prince was summoned to see:
"My son..."
"There are no outsiders today, so all the complicated etiquette will be waived."
Su Mingzhe shouted away the other palace guests in the imperial study before the prince entered.
Now that only the father and son are left, any etiquette seems superfluous.
I don’t lack these two heads.
When the prince saw this, he kowtowed without being pedantic.
Taking advantage of the situation, Su Shaoan stood up with his hands tied respectfully, waiting for his own father to admonish him.
Su Mingzhe began to feel distressed again when he saw his son acting so well-behaved.
When the prince was young, he was actually quite naughty, but as he got older, the aura in his body and eyes gradually disappeared.
So much so that now, the prince has broken down his body because of his lust for women.
Think of this.
Su Mingzhe handed the book of cultivation methods he had just written to the prince:
"check it out."
The prince took it and looked at it, but he didn't understand it. He just felt it was related to Taoism and couldn't help but asked in confusion:
"Father, what kind of scripture is this?"
"This is the method of cultivating immortality left by the former immortal Zhang Guo, and it is called [The secret of Yin and Yang inner elixir]."
After all, Su Mingzhe felt sorry for the prince and brought out the cultivation method that he had planned to hide.
"Your father, I have a harem of 3,000 beauties, all thanks to this method. I will take it out today, and you must study it seriously in the future, and do not let it go to waste..."
The prince also didn't expect that his father even had such a thing and was willing to share it with him. He couldn't help but be surprised and happy.
According to the etiquette, at the end of last year, under the instructions of the queen, the harem nuns selected eight beautiful ladies who had learned the art of bed mats and gave them to the prince.
Let him familiarize himself with the bridal chamber procedures before the wedding.
Over the years, as the prince of the Han Dynasty, Su Shaoan has been burdened with too much pressure.
These pressures came from the expectations of the emperor and empress, from the prying eyes of Empress Wan and other brothers, and from the constant daily instructions and admonitions from the great scholars around her.
The pressure was like layer after layer of silkworm cocoon, wrapping the prince tighter and tighter.
In the end, these layers of pressure began to make the prince feel helpless and suffocated.
However, the prince did not dare to ask outsiders for help.
At this time, eight beautiful ladies who were as beautiful as flowers and jade came to him. Under the huge pressure, the prince directly used these beautiful ladies as tools to relieve pressure.
Several months passed in the blink of an eye.
After escaping to relieve pressure, the prince became what he is now.
My eyes are swollen, my limbs are weak, and when I stand for a long time, I start to have back pain.
Sometimes, the prince doubted whether he could survive until his father died.
As a result, at this time, his father took out the [Yin Yang Inner Pill Secret].
"Thank you, Father!"
The prince's thanks this time are the most sincere in recent years.
Before this, the prince may have been doubting that his position as prince would be in danger.
Now that his father has passed on this method of cultivating immortals to him, as the prince, what else can Su Shaoan say?
"Just watch this thing here. When you go back to practice, don't tell anyone else, not even your mother and your brothers!"
Su Mingzhe gave some instructions, and the prince naturally agreed immediately.
Afterwards, Su Mingzhe began to teach the prince the key to cultivation.
The next few days.
The prince came to the Imperial Study Room to study during the day and returned to the East Palace to practice at night.
It only takes three to five days.
The prince changed his sluggish state and became prosperous and handsome again.
In fact, the reason why the prince was able to achieve such results in just a few days was mainly due to the psychological effect.
After all, before this, the prince had actually been worried about his position as heir apparent.
Now, Su Mingzhe teaches this [Yin Yang Inner Elixir Secret], which is actually giving the prince a reassurance.
No more worries, the prince is no longer depressed, and he can get twice the result with half the effort by practicing the method.
In the blink of an eye, another few months passed.
August.
Su Mingzhe personally presided over the crowning ceremony for the prince.
The guests attending the crowning ceremony include not only the dignitaries and civil and military officials in Luoyang City, but also envoys from various foreign countries and overseas guests.
Over the years, the territory of the Han Empire has continued to extend outwards, and its westernmost border has begun to border the Han Dynasty.
The large and small kingdoms and principalities in Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Northern Europe, etc. all know that there is a huge silk country in the east.
These small countries could not send envoys, but traders came to do business.
In order to show the majesty of the Han Empire, Su Mingzhe specially invited guests from all walks of life.
Wait until the day of the crowning ceremony.
Thirty thousand Yulin Guards, Yinu troops, formed twenty square formations in front and behind, passing in front of the guests at the ceremony.
After declaring the glory of the Han Empire, Su Mingzhe began to preside over the crowning ceremony.
The hymns of yin and yang are floating in the air.
Su Mingzhe put the hats on the prince one by one and then took them off.
The prince put on the gowns one after another and then took them off again.
It was not until the end that the crown prince put on his royal uniform. This was the crowning ceremony.
The dignitaries and ministers began to congratulate the prince on his coming of age.
According to common etiquette, after the crowning ceremony, an elder should be invited to give a "word" to the crowned person.
However, the prince is the crown prince and the future emperor. He does not need a "word", so this step is omitted.
Afterwards, the prince began to go to the Ancestral Temple alone to offer sacrifices.
When he returned from the sacrifice, the banquet began.
After the banquet.
Su Mingzhe took the prince and walked towards the imperial study.
At this time, Su Mingzhe no longer had the emperor's mighty and domineering look, only kindness and kindness remained:
"Prince, this time, after you return to Chang'an, remember to hand over some things that need to be handed over. After your wedding in October, you will be the one to supervise the country."
When the prince heard that he was looking forward to the task of 'supervising the country' in the future, he felt happy at first, and then said with a look of panic:
"Father, you are in the prime of your life, so I'd better stay with you and study. Please forgive me for not agreeing to the matter of supervising the country!"
"Is there anything you dare not agree to?"
Su Mingzhe knew the prince's thoughts very clearly, but he didn't expose it. He just smiled gently and said:
"After you start supervising the country, I will continue to guide you for half a year. After next spring, I will go to Hangzhou to settle down."
"As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there is no room for two dragons in one sea."
"When I leave Luoyang, you, the supervisor of the country, can truly take control of the power."
