The ceremonial guard suddenly stopped, the horses lowered their heads, and the soldiers slammed their weapons on the ground. As they shouted: "Stop!", the shouts were like a wave, and the ceremonial guard that had been winding for several miles stopped like this. At the last ox cart of the ceremonial guard, In the middle, a man emerged, it was Dou Wu. The villagers in Jiedu Pavilion were afraid of causing any trouble and hid in their homes. Apart from them, there was no one else in Jiedu Pavilion.
Dou Wu looked around and saw that it was surrounded by stretches of farmland, with the tinkling of clear creeks, and a few bent willow trees shaking off their dead leaves. He nodded, it was a pretty place. Come to think of it, Liu Hong, who was born here, was definitely not as miserable as the rumors. He frowned, did not ride a horse, and walked forward on foot to meet the future Holy Emperor, but he was not suitable for riding a horse.
At this time, there was a lot of excitement in the Hou Mansion. Everyone was busy, with inextricable joy on their faces. The master of his family was the new king. This shocking news made the entire Hou Mansion fall into a panic. In a state of extreme excitement, especially the slaves who had caught goldfish with Liu Hong, they were even more excited and whispering to the slaves who didn't know about it.
Just now, Mr. Dong has already said that there is no need to hide this matter anymore. My son is already going to be the new king. If you bring out the auspiciousness, won't it prove that my son has complied with the will of God? Among these people , the only ones who can still remain calm are Liu Hong and He Xiu. As a great scholar, He Xiu is at least good at cultivating qi. At this moment, he is in the study room, asking him to recite Gongyang over and over again.
The little fat man's calmness was just an act, but he was indescribably happy and excited. As he grew older, he also understood the meaning of the book, and even more clearly understood his own mission to lead this empire. Towards an extraordinary mission, even though he had such a strong sense of mission, he still pretended to be calm and calm.
He was afraid that if he jumped happily, he would be beaten by the old man in front of him. If he wanted to dance, he would have to wait until he officially ascended the throne.
But Dong was outside, negotiating with Xing Ziang, Dong Zhong and others. After all, he was just a pavilion. Dong didn't know how to greet the angel, and his face turned red with excitement. Xing Ziang did have some understanding of this. He had also read about it. After seeing some ancient rituals, he voluntarily wanted to be the ceremonial man. In his heart, Mr. Dong still hoped that He Xiu could take the role, but he did not dare to ask He Xiu to do it, so he could only ask the young Xing Ziang to do it.
Xing Ziang stood in front of the door. Besides experiencing such a scene, he was also a little excited. He asked the servants to hold incense and bowed around him, and opened the door wide. Dou Wu was about to knock on the door. Seeing such a posture, he was also very excited. Stunned, Xing Ziang saw the person coming and shouted loudly: "Who is coming?"
Dou Wu really didn't expect that in this small countryside, there would be such a young man, who not only knew the ancient rituals, but also had such outstanding courage. He no longer dared to underestimate the prince's mansion, so he leaned down and worshiped: "The Queen Mother made a fake Yue hold Dou Wu!"
"Where are you coming from?"
"In response to the taboo of Tiancheng Zongzong, Hongfeng ancestral temple was built."
They were still talking here, and the domestic slaves had already gone into the study to report to Liu Hong. Liu Hong nodded calmly, but he almost shouted excitedly in his heart. He Xiu was very satisfied with his calmness, and nodded with a smile. He was worthy of the title. His disciple's demeanor alone has surpassed that of Emperor Daxing. He Xiu waved his hand and said, "In that case, just go out and see Dou Youping."
The little fat man nodded and walked out calmly, but his body was trembling slightly.
Even though Xing Ziang stood in front of the door and delayed Dou Wu for almost half an hour, Dou Wuquan was not angry at all, but was even more satisfied. There was such a virtuous person in this prince's mansion. Then Liu... the emperor must have been very happy. After the ceremony, Dou Wu stood up and saw a fat man in Confucian attire walking out slowly, holding a scroll in his hand, looking very majestic.
The fat man was young and short, but he had an air of elegance about him.
Faced with such a big event, he is still calm and calm, what a true master!
Dou Wu was overjoyed. He Jun had indeed taught a good disciple. As for the King of Hejian, he had long ago thrown it out of his mind. It didn't matter whether he was fat or not. What mattered was that the emperor actually studied Confucian classics and was a Confucian scholar! From this point of view, he must be a good party member and a treacherous and rebellious king!
He hurriedly leaned over and said: "Please take the new gentleman for a ride!"
"I already understand Mr. Dou's intention, but I heard that a wise man waits for a wise man like a dry land waiting for rain and dew. I am so young and have no talent in my belly. I am far inferior to the wise men in the clan. The state-owned Mr. Dou, Chen Sir, Mr. Liu is so talented, and there are many talented people waiting for you. Emperor Daxing was deceived by the eunuchs and destroyed the Great Wall. I am afraid that I will not be able to achieve the rain and dew that you all expected. I hope Mr. Dou will still invite someone else in the clan. Just a sage."
After saying that, the little fat man leaned over and bowed again, but he was laughing in his heart. Those history books are not for nothing. How can I agree to you so easily at this time? How can I gain a reputation and let you Put on a show of inviting me and begging me, so that I can participate in politics more easily in the future!
Dou Wu was stunned. His bad views on this little guy suddenly changed completely. This is a wise king!
The domestic slaves around, including Dong Shi, Dong Zhong, and Xing Ziang, all had their mouths wide open and were speechless. This is a ninth-five-year-old position, so why give up? It’s embarrassing, and almost fell off the couch? In my heart I'm also thinking about whether this guy is bluffing or is he really crazy after imitating Gongyang Chuanxue?
Dou Wu stood up, said nothing, just bowed and bowed again, and then walked out.
This time, the little fat man was a little stunned and left????
Ancient sages have to be invited two or three times to abdicate! You just ask once and then leave??
Dou Wu walked out and closed the door without looking back. The little fat man turned his head bitterly, saw his mother's angry eyes, smiled awkwardly, and rushed over. In the study, the entire Hou Mansion suddenly fell silent. He Xiu was sitting in the study and laughed out loud when he saw the little fat man walking in a little dull.
He clapped his hands and said, "What? Now you regret it again?"
"Master, I read those history books. Those wise ministers and wise kings were all invited after three visits. Why did they only invite me once when they came to my place? Could it be that the ancients deceived me!" The little fat man was so angry that he almost cried. He Xiu shook his head helplessly, looked at him and said: "Don't be clever in the future. Dou Youping is an honest man. If another eunuch comes here, I will directly order the soldiers to throw you into the car!"
The little fat man was shocked and asked: "Isn't he afraid that I will blame him and kill him in the future?"
"Hahaha, Emperor Daxing has been the emperor for twenty-one years, but has only been in power for nine years. Do you think that after he ascends the throne, he will have the power of life and death to govern the world?" He Xiu said with a sneer. At this time, The little fat man finally realized something.
"Don't worry, that Dou Wu will not leave. He is a sincere gentleman. After hearing your nonsense, he must be even more happy in his heart. He will wait carefully for one more day. This matter will be decided by the court.
It’s not that easy to change, but please don’t play such tricks again in the future. Your Majesty, follow the right path!” He Xiu criticized harshly, and the little fat man nodded and agreed to him.
The little fat man spent the whole night in the study, excited and a little scared, just looking forward to tomorrow arriving soon.
The next day, at Chenshi, Dou Wu was stingy again.
Xing Ziang opened the door, only to find that Dou Wu's whole person was different. He was wearing a deep coat with a curved skirt, a scarf covering his head, and then a crown. He was actually wearing a formal dress, and his face was extremely serious. He leaned over and worshiped: "Wu takes a bath and offers incense."
, I hope the new king will comply with God’s will and inherit the throne!”
The little fat man appeared again, but this time, he no longer dared to refuse. He pretended to think for a long time before nodding.
"In that case, I will return to the capital with Mr. Dou."
