On October [-]st, when the first rays of the morning sun pierced the sky, the morning bells of Beishan Temple began to echo each other. The lingering sound of birds and birds echoed in every corner of Xuan'an City. There were signs of activity in the streets of the city, but the fog did not disperse. , everything seems unreal.

Suddenly there was a wind, like a pair of invisible big hands, gently brushing away the morning fog in Xuan'an City.Just like a famous painting that has been handed down from generation to generation, its belt has been lifted, slowly spreading the prosperity here.

Covered with the breeze of the morning sun, the fallen leaves were picked off one by one, leaped over the city wall, and sent to the hand baskets of passers-by, and also sent to the hands of children with blue eyes in the city, where they were gently held.

It was only half a stick of incense time, the sun was high outside, and the gate of the city began to be bustling with people, very lively.

But at the entrance to the city, there was a long queue. It is said that when the new emperor ascended the throne, in order to ensure safety, the imperial court issued a martial law order. All people entering the city must be strictly interrogated by the guards before entering the city. If there is inconvenience, no one dares to talk about the holy will.

At this time, Wang Yu, under the lead of dozens of elite soldiers, drove slowly towards the "Imperial City" in the east of the city.

Although it was a bit hasty, Huangfu Mingze still had to fill up the scene after all, at least he had to have a decent palace, and he could only temporarily use the former governor's mansion to renovate it.

Based on the former governor's mansion, the inner city of the imperial palace was established, and the outer city was expanded outwards around this center.

Turning around a not-so-wide street corner, and then taking the east-west avenue, all the way to the east, passing through the "tall" inner city wall with three large and small gates, there is a long and narrow open space, The ground is paved with rammed loess, flat and stable.

On both sides of the field, there were all kinds of carriages parked, and there were also some well-dressed royals, gathered in groups of three or four, playing games to pass the time. It could be seen that these were the royals of various civil and military officials. .

At this point, the driver cannot continue to move forward.

Under the leadership of the servants, he walked through a gate and stepped into a more open square square. The ground was paved with bluestones. Although it was not as solemn or luxurious as a real palace, it was still smooth and clean.

In the center of the site, there are also twelve black copper pillars, each more than five feet high and twelve feet apart, forming a circle. If you look closely at the floor tiles in the circle, you will find that the color is slightly different from the surrounding ones, diverging in ten different directions. Drive away, each other is even, and the confrontation is neat.

These copper pillars and floor tile patterns correspond to the heavenly stems and earthly branches respectively.

These things are not placed randomly for the sake of looking good. They can be used in the enthronement ceremony. Even if they are decorations, they actually have their specific meaning behind them.

The main hall is on a three-story platform, and each platform is surrounded by heavy soldiers. Hundreds of stone steps, about ten feet wide, extend from the square to the main entrance of the main hall. Today, the center of the stone steps is still A red silk carpet about three feet wide was specially laid.

At this time, the new emperor should be crowned and dressed in the hall, and those who can go to serve and wait in the hall must be those who can reach a certain status, and the rest can only wait outside. …

"General Xuanyuan, please!" Before Wang Yu stepped on the steps, he intentionally gave Xuanyuan Huang a serious ceremony.Wang Yu turned sideways to meet Xuanyuan Huang who was behind, and said humbly.

Not to mention anything else, and no matter what the fate of the two of them will be in the future, just because of their respect for the ancestors of Yan and Huang, they are worthy of Wang Yu's courteousness in this foreign land.

When Xuanyuan Huang saw it, he naturally wanted to back down, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "General Wang, please!"

After being courteous, Wang Yu smiled and went up the stairs side by side with Xuanyuan Huang, stepping on the red silk carpet towards the main entrance of the main hall above the stone steps.

The humility of the two people was also seen by the "Hundred Officials" on the square, but the expressions they showed were different. Those who nodded approvingly, some were unbelievable, but there were also those who turned a blind eye, and even more contemptuous despisers.

To be reasonable, in fact, in the eyes of many people, they actually look down on Xuanyuan Huang. As a person from a great family in the East China Sea, he should have a bright future, but he chooses to join forces with those rebels of the Heavenly Master.In this regard, many people who rely on their status will be ashamed to associate with it.

Of course, most people who maintain this view are just short-sighted people.These people, in fact, are nothing to worry about, at most, they occasionally play the role of stirring up shit sticks or rat shit.It's hard to have any big threats, at most it's just disgusting you.

Taking off their shoes and only wearing cotton socks, Wang Yu and Xuanyuan Huang stood on the spot, and at the same time, they raised their heads and glanced at the plaque engraved with "Tianzheng Hall" hanging above the gate of the palace, and then stepped into this magnificent palace. Inside the main hall, I can see the scene clearly.

In ancient times, there were clear regulations on the etiquette of wearing shoes. There were clear regulations on when to wear shoes and when to take them off.It is recorded in the ancient books that those who wear shoes in the palace are disrespectful, especially when meeting the emperor.Of course, this is even more necessary for such an important ceremony as the enthronement ceremony.

In the hall, the flat wooden floor is very clean and tidy because it is properly cleaned. It exudes a waxy yellow translucent luster, which can even reflect people's shadows. The feet are extremely flexible and will not feel stiff or cold. Hear a "creak" sound.

In the center of the whole hall is a bronze tripod with a width and height of six feet. Withered floating dragon and phoenix dancing, there is a pool of clear water in it. Spread out, together supporting the three-layer structure above the head of the sky dome.

Two rows of servants spread out along the two rows of vermilion pillars in the middle, each of them lowered their voices and lowered their eyebrows, leaving an aisle about five feet wide.

And the seat of honor in the innermost part of the hall is naturally the position of supreme. On the huge screen, the pure gold floating dragons and clouds are vivid, showing luxury and dignity. Ahead is a three-story high platform with a height of two feet. , each floor has a withered railing made of snow-white pale stone, leaving three wooden stairs going to three directions.

And on the high platform is a bird screen made of pure gold, below is a cattail mat embroidered with gold thread, and in front of it is a wide and long gilded rosewood eucalyptus, on which is placed a furnace of incense And a pair of pens, making it look extravagant and luxurious, but also more elegant and elegant.

On the left side under the high platform, before Xuanyuan Huang and Wang Yu, several people were already waiting here.

"I have met the two sons, I have met Mr. Wen!" Wang Yu took the initiative to salute the two of them, which was regarded as a greeting.
