First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Since New Year's Day, the whole palace has been busy. Although Zhu Biao is not busy, he can still feel it.

Zhu Biao took a look at the sky and saw that it was still covered by cloud, but the people from Qin Tianjian said, "It will definitely clear up on the day of the grand ceremony!"

Of course, Zhu Biao didn't think this was what people like them said. They were always the guys who were eighty percent sure about five percent. They probably were forced by Zhu Yuanzhang.

As time passed, the grand ceremony would be tomorrow morning, and Zhu Biao changed into the red four-claw dragon robe early. This was the dress of the crown prince, and it was specially prepared by Zhu Yuanzhang for the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

It is estimated that many people will not be able to sleep tonight.

Zhu Biao was also in high spirits and was not going to sleep at all. The four little girls and Liu Jin looked at Zhu Biao with tears in their eyes.

Zhu Biao stood in the yard, watching the sky turn from black to bright, and the fiery red sun finally showed his face.

With the shaking in the mansion, Zhang Yuan Quanxu came to greet him, Zhu Biao glanced at the people behind him, and walked out of the palace surrounded by a group of people with a smile. Colorful flags were planted on both sides of the road, and five carriages were prepared in front of Fengtian Hall for the emperor, empress and other royal personnel who were going to participate in the ceremony.

Zhu Biao's carriage was behind the emperor and empress, and the mighty carriage marched to Zijin Mountain. When the auspicious time came, Zhu Yuanzhang walked alone to the altar that had been set up earlier.

Standing beside Ma Shi, Zhu Biao watched Zhu Yuanzhang's figure walk forward step by step. That figure was not majestic but stepped on everyone's heart like a god.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang came to the altar that symbolizes the heaven, earth and the country. The sacrifice of the country is the most important thing. Generally, "the altar is set up as a society". , White, red, black, yellow" five colors of soil covering, which is the so-called five-color soil.

In the east, Yimu belongs to green, in the west, Geng metal belongs to white, in the south, Lihuo belongs to red, in the north, sunflower water belongs to black, and in the center, Wutu belongs to yellow".

Zhu Yuanzhang knelt in front of the altar in the figure of a crown, prayed to the heavens, prayed for the good weather, prayed to the earth, prayed for a good harvest of grains, offered sacrifices to the ancestors, and prayed for the eternal existence of the ancestors!

Then Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and slowly turned around to look at the crowd. The crowd all over the mountains and plains knelt down at the same time and shouted long live!

In the Buddha world, there is no one who can stand in front of him!

Zhu Yuanzhang solemnly asked everyone to stand up, and then changed into a new dragon robe at the request of officials from the Ministry of Rites.

This is the completion of offering sacrifices to the heavens. The heavens and the earth have already assigned the authority of the human world to the emperor. From all beings to ghosts and gods, only the emperor can decide with one word!

Zhu Yuanzhang pulled the queen onto the dragon chariot, which was driven by six snow-white horses in front of it. The body of the dragon chariot was inlaid with gold, silver, jade, precious stones and pearls; the body of the dragon chariot was also engraved with patterns of dragons and phoenixes.

Zhu Yuanzhang led the civil and military officials back to the palace. Along the way, there were soldiers holding colorful flags on both sides of the road. When they arrived outside the Meridian Gate, two officials from the Ministry of Rites held commendations and entered the palace. At this time, the palace was decorated with lights and red lanterns. hang up.

The drumming began at the beginning of the watch. Although it was midnight in winter, the officials still put on their court clothes and stood waiting outside the Meridian Gate, and the ceremony officials entered the court hall in the palace to report and prepare.

At midnight, officials below the prime minister entered the palace. The new emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the emperor's throne. The symbol is placed on the treasure case.

Zhu Yuanzhang stamped the emperor's seal on the enthronement edict! After receiving the imperial edict, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites took out the Fengtian Temple and put it in the Dragon Court carried by someone outside the Meridian Gate.

Then, escorted by drums, music, and civil and military officials, they went out of Taihe Gate, Meridian Gate, and Duan Gate to the towers of the outer city. The summoner stepped onto the stage, stood facing west and read out the imperial edict.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said: I am the king of China. Since the end of the Song Dynasty, the fate of the real man in the desert, entered China as the master of the world, passed on to his descendants, and passed on to his descendants. For more than a hundred years, this fate is also ending. Struggle. I am originally the common people of the Huaihe River, and the lotus is favored by the heavens. The spirit of the ancestors took advantage of the autumn of vying for the deer, and sent the heroes and sages to the left and right. All the two Huai, two Zhejiang, Jiangdong, Jiangxi, Hu, Hunan, Han, Mian, Fujian, and Guangxi The barbarians in Shandong, Shandong, and the counties in the Southwest were invaded by bandits everywhere, and repeatedly ordered the generals and the generals to show their might and power, and the four directions were settled, and the people settled in the fields."

"Now the civil and military ministers and all the ministers join forces to persuade them to advance, respect me as the emperor, and take charge of Qianli."

"Following everyone's request, on the 4th day of the first lunar month of the second year of Wu, the heaven and the earth will be sacrificed to the sun of Zhongshan, that is, the emperor is located in the southern suburbs. The name of the world will be Daming, and Hongwu will be built in the Yuan Dynasty. Respect the Taimiao, and honor the concubines of the four generations. The emperor and the empress. Establish the great society and the great country in the capital. Canonize the Ma family as the empress, and set the son as the crown prince."

"Announce it to the world, and the salty envoys will hear about it."

Because it is high and sacred, it sounds like the voice of heaven. At this time, all civil and military officials in the south of the Jinshui Bridge under the city tower and those invited to watch the ceremony lined up in order according to the order of their official positions, kneeling facing north, kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times to thank the emperor for his kindness.

After the edict was read out, the edict officer rolled up the edict, put it in a wooden tray shaped like a cloud, and came to the Jinfeng Terrace in the middle of the gate of the tower.

Put the title of the edict in the mouth of the wooden golden phoenix, then hang the golden phoenix with a yellow velvet rope, stomp the middle of the mouth from the outer city tower, and lower it slowly to express the emperor's order. The golden phoenix will ride the clouds and descend from the sky .

At this time, officials from the Ministry of Rites had already dragged the cloud pan and knelt below to pick it up, and the imperial edict from Jinfeng's mouth fell into the cloud pan.

At this point, the ceremonial officer waved his whip to signal everyone to be quiet. Under the guidance of the etiquette staff, the officials lined up to enter and stood at their saluting positions. From the time the officials entered to the station, the music was played at regular intervals, just like some music is played when the VIPs of large-scale events enter the venue. Yes, when worshiping, you have to kneel and bow, and the ritual officer also performs "worship and dance ceremony" and at the same time shout "long live my emperor", and shout three times in a row.

This is considered to have completed the emperor's enthronement ceremony!

After that, the first court meeting of the new dynasty will start, and the queen will lead all the princes to retreat, and Zhu Biao is no exception.

The prince does not need to go to the court without the emperor's order, and there is no place for him below. After all, he is not a civil servant or general, nor is he among the ranks of nobles.

As soon as he exited the Great Fengtian Hall, he was stopped by a eunuch, "His Royal Highness, Your Majesty asked you to wait here.

Empress Ma glanced at Zhu Biao, "Your father is probably going to announce your subordinates in the East Palace, so wait here."
