Chapter 266
In Jiazhou City, the newlywed Li You took the secret letter from the messenger and opened it. After he bowed and left, he carefully checked the lacquer seal. He carefully opened it and glanced quickly and handed the secret letter to Yao Guangxiao, "Your Majesty has passed away and King Hui has been taken into the palace. It seems that the one who succeeded the throne is probably King Hui."
"The Queen Mother was young and the Queen Mother didn't care much about political affairs. In the future, the government would probably have Yang Jiefu decided to make a decision." Xu Guang originally wanted to say that the Queen Mother had no political talent, but he changed his words temporarily.
"In the past two years, the Wei Dynasty has encountered major events one after another, and the imperial court has spent a lot of money. I wonder if they can withstand it." Fan Li talked about his old career.
"What Mr. Xu said may not be true. The reason why poor families and aristocratic families could let go of their grudges and work together was because there were nobles as their common enemies. Now that the nobles are in decline and the emperor is still young, their alliance should fall apart." Yao Guangxiao handed it to Fan Li after reading the superstition, "Officials from the aristocratic families want to expand their rights while Yang Jiefu is still in power, and the poor families are not willing to stay under Yang Jiefu for a long time. The two factions are probably going to start an internal strife next."
Li You nodded slowly, as if he agreed with Yao Guangxiao's point of view, "It is better for us to fight. Only when they are busy in the court will they forget Yunzhou and Jiazhou, and we can continue to accumulate strength."
"As an important minister of the Great Wei Dynasty, I didn't think about how to be loyal to the emperor and the country, but I fought for my own selfish interests all day long, and I became ministers." Xu Guang shook his head and sighed, and his disgust for these officials increased a little.
Yao Guangxiao narrowed his triangle eyes and said nothing. Fan Li seemed to smile. They were not ministers of the Great Wei. Now the more problems exposed by the Great Wei, the longer Li You can get, which is extremely beneficial to them.
"Okay, please remove the layout of the mansion and change it to plain colors so that there will be no need to gossip at the time." Li You couldn't help but feel glad. Fortunately, he moved his way up to the wedding, otherwise he would have to wait a long time to get married to Zhou Nan. Alas, the overall situation in Beijing has been decided now, I wonder what happened to Princess Taiping and Qiu Shangjian?
"Well, I'll go and say to Uncle Zhong later." These were just some small problems. Xu Guang didn't care. He asked Li You again, "Sir, the wedding has ended now, and the group training in Jiazhou is gradually becoming more and more impressive. There is no need for me to stare at it every day, so let me go to the capital again."
Xu Guang is a person with loyalty first. He knew that after King Hui ascended the throne, he would definitely be unfavorable to Qiu Shangjian, Princess Taiping and others, so he could not ignore this. Last time, it was because Li You's wedding required him to take care of, but now it was empty. Li You could no longer find any other reason to persuade the elder who made him respect, so he had to agree, "This will bring you a blessing. When you go to the capital, you can go to the shop in Xicheng City to find out the news. Mr. Fan will arrange it for you."
He didn't say anything nonsense like paying attention to safety, because he knew that Xu Guang was not a person who cherished his life, but fortunately his martial arts and experience were enough to ensure that not many people could hurt him. Fan Li immediately agreed and introduced the address of the store, the code words and tokens to Xu Guang one by one.
"It's not time to go, Xu will leave now." After that, Xu Guang stood up and prepared to go back to the room to pack his things and go to the capital. Li You and others stood up at the same time to see him off.
"Mr. Xu, take care of yourself all the way." Before leaving, Li You took Xu Guang's hand and reminded, "Sir, come back early. In the future, my child will need Mr. Xu to help teach martial arts."
"Haha, little sir, but please don't worry, I didn't underestimate the people in the capital, there are not many people in the world who can hurt me." After that, Xu Guang smiled and turned his head and headed towards the capital without looking back.
At the same time, in the capital, Li Gui's ceremony had been carried out for more than half. He was buried in a coffin and placed in a side hall. He had to wait until the mountain tomb was built before moving in; officials from all over the court, big and small, began to be busy with the throne ceremony of King Hui.
On the day of Li Gui's death, Yang Jiefu had already led his ministers to visit King Hui, which was actually considered as the ascension of the throne. According to the ancestral system of the Great Wei Dynasty, the formal ceremony of the throne will be held half a month after Li Gui's death. Before that, the ministers would change King Hui Li Chong to the emperor. After the ceremony of the throne, he would become a legitimate emperor. If the new emperor had become an adult and had been familiar with court affairs for many years, he would be able to rule, but Li Chong did not have both, so the empress dowager would have to rule behind the curtain for a period of time.
The ceremony of the throne ceremony was very complicated. First, we had to go to the Circular Mound to celebrate the sacrifice ceremony. The ceremony was completed. The school captain was sent to set up a golden chair to the east and south in front of the suburbs, and set up a crown garment case in front of the golden chair. The prime minister led the ministers and the officials looked at the seats and ran to say, "I will be the emperor's throne." The ministers supported them to sit on the chairs, and the officials arranged their ranks first. The deacons raised their crowns and garments, and the treasure case was ahead. The prime ministers knelt in with their crowns and placed them on the table. The prime ministers took the crowns and gave them to the sage.
Then the prime minister and others joined the class and sang "scheduled" with praise. After the class was scheduled, the ministers bowed and played music. Then the ministers bowed three times, calmed their bodies, and stopped their bodies, and then bowed three times, calmed their bodies, and stopped their joy.
Tongzan led the Prime Minister to the throne of the emperor, and Tongzan sang, "Kneel, hold the scepter". The Prime Minister held the scepter, and all the officials knelt. He held the treasure official and opened a box to get the jade seal and gave it to the prime minister. The Prime Minister held the treasure and said, "The emperor ascended the throne, and I will be careful to give it to the imperial treasure." Then Shang Baoqing received the treasure and put it in the box.
The Tongzan official sang, "Be in place, bow, flatten the body", and the officials followed the Tongzan's instructions and flatten the body. The Tongzan official sang again, "Reset", and led the Prime Minister to return to his original position from the west. The Tongzan official then sang again, "Bow, bow, bow, bow, flatten the body, hold the scepter, bow, three dances, kneel on the left knee, three kowtows, long live the mountain, shout again, shout again, kneel on the right knee, and come out of the scepter", etc., and the officials followed the steps sang by the Tongzan official.
After the work was done, the emperor lifted the sings and sang the "Check" and the officials retreated, and the ceremony was completed. Ju Lu Bo guide followed him and went to the Taimiao to present the treasures in the first class, and he followed the examinations of the four generations, and his mother, and told the etiquette of the country. He returned, Ju Gunmiao was in the imperial palace, and all officials submitted a congratulations. Then the prime minister and other officials took their place. The emperor put the imperial crown on the imperial throne, and promoted the great music until the music ended. The general rolled the curtains, Shang Baoqing put the imperial treasures on the table, guarded the whip, and led the troupe to the Danban to worship the throne and stood north. The music was performed, and the officials kneeled three kneeling and nine bowing under the guidance of Tongzan official. After the congratulations, the officials were sent to the queen. At this point, the emperor's ceremony ascended the emperor was completed.
Li Chong has not yet appointed a princess, so there is no need to worry about the queen, but the other procedures have to be completed one by one. The previous procedures were fine, and Li Chong, wearing a thick crown suit, struggled to persevere. However, when he was promoted to the imperial throne in Fengxian Palace, the tired and hungry child could not hold on anymore. He asked the chief minister who served him in a crying voice, "Why is it not finished yet?"
"It's almost over, it's almost over." The chief minister could only comfort him like this. (To be continued.)8
