Chapter 807: Enthronement Ceremony 2
(Easter egg at the end of the chapter, video of the emperor enthroning!)
The ritual officer knelt on the ground, received the edict with both hands, and then walked out of the hall.
Coming outside the hall, Cheng Wenguang, who entered the cabinet to govern, was guided by the ceremony officer to kneel at the entrance of the main hall.
The officer holding the edict walked up to Cheng Wenguang, and said in a serious tone: "Accept the edict!"
After three prostrations, Cheng Wenguang raised his hands and said loudly: "The minister accepts the imperial edict!"
This imperial edict proclaiming to the world will be read by Cheng Wenguang to the world.
After three years, from being the chief envoy of the Longyou region to now serving as the prime minister in the cabinet, it is not an exaggeration to say that Cheng Wenguang has reached the sky in one step.
When the mood was surging, Cheng Wenguang got up from the ground, holding the imperial edict in his hand, and walked towards His Majesty Dan.
This imperial edict will be read out at Chengtian Gate, and civil and military officials will also go to listen to it.
Of course, only middle and low-level officials are going to listen, and the princes and officials of the yamen will follow Zhao Yanxun's position after he exits.
Next, they had to take off their court uniforms and put on official uniforms to go to the Chongzheng Hall to worship the new emperor and present a congratulatory form.
When Cheng Wenguang left with the imperial edict in hand, Zhao Yanxun in Huangji Hall began to leave, so the kings and senior officials above Danbi also left from the imperial steps on both sides.
The hundreds of officials on the square of the Huangji Hall were guided by the ritual officer to stand on both sides of the Huangji Gate after Cheng Wenguang walked out of the Huangji Gate.
Next, they will go out of Da'anmen, climb Chengtianmen together with Cheng Wenguang, and kneel to listen to the new emperor's edict.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Wenguang walked up to Chengtian Gate, and put the imperial edict before reading the case.
The next step is to wait, mainly waiting for the officials to dare to go to Chengtianmen.
During the silence, Cheng Wenguang was not idle, he was silently reading the content of the edict in his mind.
The edict had been drawn up as early as half a month, when Cheng Wenguang was still on business in the south.
Knowing that he would read it out by himself, after getting the text of the edict, Cheng Wenguang read it day and night.
Up to now, the edict of more than 2000 characters has been memorized by him in full.
That's right, this edict has more than 2000 words, mainly about the arrangements for internal and external affairs after Zhao Yanxun ascended the throne.
Among them, cleaning up the zombies in the north and reforming the tax system are the most important contents of the imperial edict.
Of course, the imperial edict will also announce that the respected concubine Cao is the empress dowager, and the concubine Xue of Yong will be named the empress.
After another 20 minutes, all the officials were in place.
I only heard the ceremony officer shouted: "Bu Zhao, kneel..."
For a time, officials and common people knelt down on the city wall.
I saw Cheng Wenguang picked up the edict, and then read aloud: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict says..."
"In the past, my father, Emperor Shenzong, was the emperor. His voice of benevolence and righteousness shook the heaven and earth. He was bright and dark, and the world was bright. On the day of death, thousands of people mourn..."
"Nephew Weilong used clever words to kill the king and father, pretended to be the heir, and stole the great cause..."
It is already a routine operation to praise his father and then scold Zhao Weilong.
"Ancestors have taught: There are no ministers in the court, there are villains in the court, and the king has to ask for it. I obey the rules and regulations, so I raise troops to calm the difficulties..."
"Besides my garrison outside Beijing, Weilong was trembling and restless. He knew that he had committed a serious crime, so he cut himself off from the sect. Heaven and earth cannot shelter him, and ghosts and gods cannot tolerate him..."
"The position of heaven cannot be empty for a long time, and the divine weapon cannot be without an owner. The kings and ministers said that the sages of my late emperor and the sons should obey the heavens and obey the people. The last chapter persuaded them to advance..."
"I rejected it again and again, because I was in favor of the public opinion, and I became the emperor on June [-]th!"
In this way, Zhao Yanxun explained to the subjects all over the world in the imperial edict what happened to his succession.
Of course, the above is only the first half of the edict, and the next part is the big head.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Wenguang went on to read: "The great ceremony is complete, and it is advisable to carry out common administration..."
"First, the title of the first year of Ge Jingping is still called the 26th year of Tai'an. The old crown prince and concubine are called the emperor's brother Yiwen, the crown prince, and the emperor's sister-in-law Yijing, the crown prince. Jingping's false emperor was deposed as a commoner !"
"Second..."
"The third..."
The imperial edict has more than 2000 characters, and it takes at least 20 minutes to read it in rhythm.
At this moment, Zhao Yanxun had returned to Qian'an Palace, and with the help of the eunuch, he changed from the crown suit to the twelve-pattern dragon-gun suit.
Putting on the Shuanglong Xizhu Wushayi Shanguan, Zhao Yanxun turned slightly and saw himself in the mirror.
Holding the leather belt in his hand, Zhao Yanxun walked towards the main hall, and all the eunuchs who were close to him immediately followed.
Outside the main hall, the officer of ceremonies raised his voice and said, "Please ascend your seat..."
A few minutes later, when Zhao Yanxun's sedan chair stopped outside the Chongzheng Hall, bells and drums rang out.
Immediately afterwards, surrounded by a group of eunuchs, they came to the back hall of Chongzheng Hall.
At this moment, in front of the Chongzheng Hall, all the kings and officials have changed into official uniforms, and stand on the Danchi outside the hall, waiting for the officials of the Honglu Temple to enter the Chongzheng Hall and ask for a salute.
Zhao Yanxun didn't sit for a few seconds before he saw the officials of Honglu Temple appear in front of him.
"Knock the emperor to ascend to the palace!"
Then, Zhao Yanxun had no choice but to get up, surrounded by a group of eunuchs, and entered the main hall through the middle door of Houdian.
Along the imperial steps, Zhao Yanxun slowly walked up to the throne, and finally sat on the throne of Chongzheng Hall.
After Huo An waited for his attendants to tidy Zhao Yanxun's robes, all the kings and officials who were waiting outside entered the hall under the guidance of the officials.
Everyone stood in line, bowed their heads respectfully, and held the congratulatory form they had written in their hands.
"bye……"
The officer of ceremonies shouted, and everyone in the hall immediately knelt down, and then shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"prosper……"
"bye……"
This time, it was five bows and three kowtows, plus three mountain calls.
"Be flat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
At this time, Zhao Yanxun's attention was completely outside, and he used his mouth's powerful perception ability to listen to the situation on Chengtian Gate.
When Cheng Wenguang finished reading the imperial edict, just as the common people and officials shouted long live, Zhao Yanxun said the word "present" in his heart.
The next moment, there was a faint whistling sound from outside the hall.
Immediately afterwards, the ceremonial officials who were serving outside entered the palace in a panic, and after paying homage, they reported: "Qi Zou the emperor, in the eastern sky, there is a dragon soaring..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay, but at least they kept their courteous manners.
Zhao Yanxun smiled slightly, and then said: "So, all the ministers and I will come out of the palace to have a look!"
So Zhao Yanxun got up from the imperial seat, walked down the imperial steps and left the hall.
Although it was not in the etiquette to do so, Zhao Yanxun already had a sacred edict, and everyone was curious, so they followed out of the hall one after another.
As soon as they came out of the main hall, everyone saw five golden dragons writhing and dancing above Yun Ni.
When the officials were horrified, they saw Zhao Yanxun standing in front with his hands behind his back, looking up at the dragon in the sky.
But at this moment outside the Chengtian Gate, after seeing the Sky Dragon, not only the people who came to watch the ceremony, but also the whole capital city was boiling.
Some of the people were panicked, some directly took out incense candles to worship, and some were directly dumbfounded...
The dragon in the sky was getting closer and closer, and then descended on the top of the palace.
"Heaven bestows on the Holy King to illuminate the world..."
"Heaven bestows on the Holy King to illuminate the world..."
"Heaven bestows on the Holy King to illuminate the world..."
Its voice is like Huang Zhong Dalu, pointing directly at people's hearts, and it is easy to think of the oracle descended from the dark Haotian at this time.
Just when hundreds of officials and people were shocked, they saw five divine dragons circling in the sky suddenly rushing towards the direction of Chongzheng Hall.
In the end, the golden light emitted by the five divine dragons wrapped Zhao Yanxun inside, and the light emitted seemed to be able to shine forever.
In front of the Chongzheng Hall, all the officials bowed down and shouted "Long live" in fear and shock.
But outside Chengtian Gate, after hearing the horoscope sent down by God, all the officials, soldiers and common people knelt on the ground, kowtowed and shouted "Long live the emperor".
At this moment, in many people's minds, the new emperor is no different from a god.
Those who just thought that the new emperor ascended the throne and were worried about the future now only have loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor.
"Long live the emperor..."
"Long live the emperor..."
The loyalty of these people will be engraved directly into their bones, and after they return to the counties, it will affect the clansmen, and even the entire village...
In front of the Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Yanxun raised his hands up, bathing in the divine light.
And in the corner, Li Yutang, the living officer, was writing furiously.
"In the Emperor's Chongzheng Palace, all the kings and officials came up to express their congratulations. At that time, a dragon descended from the sky, and the emperor led all the officials out of the palace to watch it..."
"Five gods and dragons came to the sky above the temple, and then an oracle came down, saying: God bestowed on the sage, to illuminate all generations, three times..."
"It must be said that the dragon went straight to the emperor's body, and the emperor was bathed in a golden light. All the kings and ministers and the people were shocked. Everyone inside and outside the palace walls shouted long live, and it lasted for a long time..."
