Chapter 420 Zen position and succession

After the bell rang, the people kneeling outside Chengtian Gate got up one by one. At this time, on Chengtian Gate, an incense table and a cauldron furnace had already been set up to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth.

Emperor Ruishun, who was not as cautious as the heavenly family, was dressed in a black twelve chapter robe and a twelve-pronged crown. He lit a stick of incense first, and after offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, he put it on the incense burner in the shape of a nine tripod. Then, he took two steps back to the side and slightly nodded his head.

A ceremonial officer in a crimson dress, with a dark jade belt around his waist and a black and white crown on his head, walked up to Emperor Ruishun with a solemn face, and took the gift he took out from the tray held by the servant. Dark red dragon pattern brocade scroll, and then walked to the front of Chengtianmen tower.

Opening the brocade scroll with the dark red dragon pattern in his hand, he spoke in a cadence, and read the edict of Emperor Ruishun's abdication.

"Analysed by the three talents, the kings prosper on behalf of each other, govern the heaven and the earth, respect gods and ghosts, protect the people and create things, and salty spiritual talismans are not a great treasure of one person, but a divine tool of Taoism."

……

……

"From a distance, we can see the classics of Yao and Shun in the Chan Dynasty, but now we think about the style of surrendering in Wei and Jin. How can it be ignorant of the ritual of succession and replacement, and the hope of the gods? Today it is inferior to other palaces. The emperor is located in Ningwang, promoting sages and abilities. , a symbol of the front track. The master announces the world and implements it at the right time."

As soon as the stick of incense was burnt out, the ceremony official also finished reading the long edict of abdication, and when the ending sound disappeared, it was exactly when the incense offered by Emperor Ruishun was burned to the end and the embers fell into the incense burner.

After reading the edict of abdication, the ritual officer closed the scroll and withdrew.

At the same time, King Ning, who was wearing a bright yellow twelve-stripe uniform and a twelve-pronged crown, walked up with square steps surrounded by several court officials and servants.

Behind King Ning, there are two canopies that show his majesty.

In contrast, the figure of Emperor Ruishun looked even more bleak and lonely.

King Ning also lit a pillar of incense that was as thick and thin as Emperor Ruishun had burned before, to comfort the heaven and the earth.

After inserting the fragrance in the Ning King's hand into the Jiuding Incense Burner, another ceremony official also dressed in a scarlet dress, with a dark jade belt around his waist, and a black and white crown, took it from King Ning's hand solemnly and respectfully. A brocade scroll with a bright yellow dragon pattern.

Then, he walked to the front of the Chengtianmen tower, and stood at the place where the ritual officer had retreated.

Unfolding the brocade silk scroll with bright yellow dragon patterns in his hand, he spoke in the same cadence, and read King Ning's succession edict.

Different from Emperor Ruishun's abdication edict, King Ning's succession edict is much simpler and easier to understand. The main meaning is:

I came to King Qin following the teachings of Taizu Taizong. Emperor Ruishun must abdicate the throne to me, so I have no choice but to bite the bullet and accept it, lest the people of the world have nothing to rely on.

After ascending to the throne, I will follow the example of Taizong Taizong, and take the country and the people as the heart, be conscientious, diligent and conscientious, and will never be arrogant and extravagant.

Finally, the name of the country was changed to Ning. This year is the first year of Ruining.

After reading the succession edict, it took about the same time as Emperor Ruishun's abdication edict, but the pillar of incense that Emperor Ruining inserted to worship the heavens was still on and off, and depending on the location, there was not even a third of it. burned.

Obviously, these two sticks of incense are specially made.

Moreover, the moment the succession edict was read, King Ning, no, it was Emperor Rui Ning, turned around slightly, faced the east, unfolded his twelve chapters proudly, and made prayers with his hands, as if he wanted to draw the red sun from the sky. It's like holding up in the sky.

A moment later, the eastern sky suddenly broke open, and a round of red sun jumped out like that.

Emperor Ruishun, who had already abdicated, took off the twelve-pronged crown on his head, bent down and knelt down, and said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Starting with the abdicated Emperor Ruishun, everyone knelt down again and shouted long live three times together.

King Ning looked at all the people prostrated at his feet, with a smile on his face, and said in a loud voice, "Everyone is flat."

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Everyone responded in unison again, and then got up and stood up.

Of course, this is not over yet, and everyone will have to kneel in a while.Because King Ning, no, it is Emperor Rui Ning who has to pray to heaven again.

And during the process of King Ning offering sacrifices to heaven, all the people who had just stood up in the blink of an eye all knelt down again and prostrated themselves on the ground.

While Qingzhu carefully placed the knee pads on her knees, she muttered in her heart.

In such a short period of time, the time I spent kneeling was more than the sum of all the time I spent kneeling in the past. Thinking that I would have to spend so much time today, Qingzhu couldn't help but secretly wailed for herself a few times in her heart. .

Of course, howling and kneeling and howling, you have to kneel if you should kneel.

However, I don't know how many people have indescribable envy and jealousy towards Qingzhu.

There are not many women who can come to participate in the Zen throne ceremony, most of them are kneeling outside the Suzaku Gate, very few can come to Chengtian Gate, and there are even fewer women who can kneel with a group of King Qin's heroes up.

The only woman who can still kneel so far in front is Qingzhu.

As for the others, including the main generals of the Hongzhuang Camp and the lieutenant of the Feifeng School, they all knelt far away.

And the other woman, Princess Anle, because she is the daughter of King Ning and Emperor Rui Ning, she is King Tong Ning, no, she is with Emperor Rui Ning on the tower of Chengtian Gate.

Of course, she was behind, and the people below couldn't see her.

After Emperor Ruining offered sacrifices to heaven and earth, the big bells of Miyagi, Temple of Heaven, Xiannongtan, and Taimiao rang again. After a total of ninety-nine and eighty-one chimes, the throne of Zen was enthroned, and it was considered over.

Of course, for Emperor Ruining's ascension to the throne, this is still just the beginning.

Emperor Rui Ning turned around first, followed by An Le, who was wearing a big red Zhai robe and a phoenix crown, and Yang Shenghao, who was wearing a nine chapter black patterned suit and a nine crown crown. Surrounded by the courtiers, a group of people descended from the tower of Chengtian Gate.

Emperor Ruining went downstairs and boarded the imperial gate, the canopy went first, followed by a group of standard bearers, and behind him was Emperor Ruining's imperial guard, and after the imperial guard, the princes and daughters' half guards, and then all civil and military officials followed suit. Grades, follow behind in turn, and walk towards the Huangji Hall.

As for Emperor Xianshun, no one cares about him anymore.

Some lost their souls, accompanied by two servants, went to a relatively remote palace in the other inner palace.

He has to go and change the tattooed clothes.Then, wait for the imperial edict of the new emperor.

Starting today, he will no longer be able to wear this suit and this crown...

Think about it, it seems a little pitiful.

However, there is a saying that goes well: the evil done by the sky is still tolerable, and the evil done by oneself is not to be lived.

Although many things were done by He Shidao and the others in the name of Emperor Ruishun, he was just a puppet, but he really couldn't escape the title of Faint Lord.

It is already very good to be able to save one's life and leave some glory and wealth behind.
