Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 455 The Enthronement Ceremony
The fourth day of the first lunar month, the fourth day of the new year, is full of flavor.

Before dawn, the energetic guards in the imperial city began to prepare, and the armor on their bodies made noises as they moved.

According to Emperor Zhu's request, Zhu Biao ascended the throne in the Fengtian Hall just like when the Ming Dynasty was founded, but it was more grand, and there were many etiquettes that were perfected.

Originally, there should have been red carpets, ceremonial guards, cars and other furnishings, including the singing and dancing of the maids and the Jiaofang Division.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites took everyone in the Ministry of Rites to sue the ancestors of heaven and earth,

The enthronement scene should have been grand, and it would not be an exaggeration to change each guard into a new suit, red and green.

But considering Lao Zhu, Zhu Biao did not exaggerate so much. He had the proper etiquette, and some bands' singing and dancing were directly omitted.

When the auspicious time came, the bells and drums rang together, and Zhu Biao was wearing a bright yellow uniform and a crown with a crown on his head, followed by civil servants and generals.

Li Wenzhong, Zhu Di, Lan Yu, Xu Da, Tang He, and Geng Bingwen all personally sent Zhu Biao to Fengtian Hall.Chang Yuchun didn't come, because the Northeast needed him to guard, so Chang Mao had to rush back from Wa Island.

On the square outside Fengtianmen, hundreds of civil and military officials stood neatly in a row, which was specially requested by Zhu Biao, implying that civil and military officials sit together.

Everyone waited quietly.

Lu Zhong led many guards in brocade clothes in today's guard of honor.

Firecrackers were fired.

The Minister of Honglu Temple holds the edict of abdication with both hands, puts it in Yunyu, and leads it to Fengtian Hall.

The 95 cannons along the Yangtze River made a sound together, and the 95 flintlock guns made a deafening sound, which scared the magpies to fly around.

Until the sound stopped for a long time, the smell of gunpowder was still very strong.

It can also be heard in the imperial city.

"The auspicious time has come, and all the ministers salute."

"kneel."

"Respect heaven and earth, respect our emperor, long live long live long live long live."

Standing at the gate of Fengtian Temple, the Honglu Temple official was like a white swan singing with his neck up. He felt that he had reached the pinnacle of his glorious life at this moment, and he read every word of the imperial edict forcefully.

……

……

Emperor Zhu looked at the ministers who were kneeling neatly, and felt reluctant to give up.

But more is to hope that Zhu Biao will make Daming stronger and bring him to the top, and he is also willing to give up his position.

Zhu Biao whispered: "Father, if you..."

"Shut up, we're very happy." Emperor Zhu smiled with wrinkles on his face, handed the Chuanguo Yuxi to Zhu Biao and asked, "How do you feel?"

"Whether you wear this suit or not, Erchen will always be a good son of Dad, and he is a person who works for the people. Now that the burden is heavy, but there are some things that can be done freely, and we can no longer be lazy."

Emperor Zhu glanced at him: "It's really tiring. We can relax. We had a son back then and wanted to keep a share of the family business. Now the Ming court is yours."

If Zhu Biao is incompetent, he will remove all the thorns for him, train him more, and wait until everything is peaceful before handing over to him.

But in the past few years, I have seen it for all to see, and it happened to let Liu Bowen unravel his dream, and justifiably abdicated.

The father and son sat side by side, accepting congratulations from all the officials. There were many painters outside Fengtian Hall, and the historians couldn't stop their brushes.

These historic moments, they must clearly write down.

On the viewing platform, the vassals of Koryo, Annan and Ryukyu watched the ceremony again.

On the other side, there is a unique audience.

They are Zhu Di's gift to celebrate Zhu Biao.

Captive of Luzon.

The civil and military officials saluted with great salutes, and their voices were resounding.

The sun of Zhongshan, the top of Zijin, Zhu Biao returned to the palace after bowing down.

Enter the Meridian Gate, and then pass the Inner Wulong Bridge, which is the Fengtian Gate.Inside the gate are the square in front of Fengtian Temple and Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Biao stood on the tower of Fengtian Gate, toasted and knelt down: "Minister Zhu Biao, I am here today to kowtow to the sky, the sun and the moon, mountains and rivers, heaven and earth...follow the will of the heavens, win the hearts of the people, congratulate the generals, and embrace the civil servants. Let's make great wishes again. , leading the Ming and Han people, opening up territories, guarding rivers and mountains. Protecting the common people in the world, so that the weather will be smooth and the country will be safe and peaceful.

When all nations congratulate each other, it is the period of my Daming River and Qinghai Yan.Minister Zhu Biao, on the fourth day of the first month of the new year, changed to Yuan Tianyan. "

Then, the firecrackers and artillery outside the city sounded again at the right time.But ten thousand soldiers made a shocking sound, which directly overwhelmed the sound of the guns.

The sound of congratulations was like a storm on the sea, rushing towards Zhu Biao, wave after wave, the voice shook the sky.

"Loyal to my emperor."

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, who has always been calm, did not expect that all the soldiers and officials would support his son so much, and he was deeply shocked.

Another thing is that for the army students and Nanjing Navy students who came to Peking this time, the new emperor will personally patrol them in the square of Fengtian Temple.

The doctors and officers of the National Academy of Scholars, who have followed Zhu Biao for several years, will be rewarded by Zhu Biao today.Tao Chengdao and Sanbao were given official positions.

Taking advantage of the enthronement ceremony, Zhu Biao personally told these soldiers about his treatment, his promise to them, and the official arrangements for retirement, arrangements for family members, as well as honors and rewards.

Civil and military are equal, and there is no vulgar talk about warriors, and those who are able will be rewarded.

Admire the people of the Ming Dynasty to practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies, promote the scientific and technological spirit of the National Academy of Sciences, use their brains to do things more, and scientifically increase food production.

The generals were encouraged and rewarded by Zhu Biao, hoping that they would make Daming's force stronger and build a sacred army that is respected and admired by the people.

The flags of the five major military regions all have a unified sun and moon flag pattern, only the military region they belong to is embroidered at the bottom, prefixed with the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Then in the afternoon, Zhu Biao led all the officials to offer incense in front of the Monument of Heroes of the Ming Dynasty on the outskirts of the city, giving preferential treatment to the families of the martyrs.

Along the straight road, the surface has been repaired with clear cement, and the streets on both sides are full of evergreen trees, which are still green in winter.

There are wooden signs hanging on the two big trees in front of the capital, which are two sentences.

The sun and the moon will always shine on the land of the Han family, and the mountains and rivers will be unified forever.

The onlookers stood on both sides of the wide straight road, and along the street, the bustling people knelt down and shouted, Long live Your Majesty.

Many people from the northern prefectures also came to watch the grand ceremony. The rivers and canals that Zhu Biao repaired for them, as well as potatoes and sweet potatoes, grain seeds, children studying, and grievances that the government did not care about, can go to the Huangmingwei Hall to beat the drum .

The guard of honor marched from the gate of the imperial city to the gate of the capital, like a human dragon, playing silk and bamboo music for a long time, and went together to the monument of heroes of the Ming Dynasty.

On the tall stone tablet, the names of every soldier who died in the battle were densely engraved. Those women, old people, and children who stayed in the family courtyard were arranged there by the Ministry of Rites, wearing red and hanging colors.

After Zhu Biao brought all the officials to pay homage, all the generals knelt down on one knee to express their condolences.

I don't know who in the crowd shouted first, and the people followed suit: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Those who watched the ceremony and worshiped together were the Supreme Emperor Zhu, Empress Ma, and the Crown Princess.

"Okay, okay, let's see that he can win the hearts of the people, and if Daming entrusts him, we won't have to worry about it."

Those gentry officials who resisted the decree and refused to pay the grain tax felt cold and cold, and the emperor who won the hearts of the people would be surrendered by all the generals.Their resistance is like an egg hitting a rock, very weak.

On the Yangtze River, Tang He and Tang Ding lined up all the warships on the river, and Zhao Yunsheng led the navy to be inspected by Zhu Biao.

Many people standing on the mountain looked down from a high place, and those who could read could recognize the line of characters on the river.

"Emperor Yan tomorrow, long live!"

Zhu Biao rode his horse across the river, this is his navy, his soldiers.

The fleet is shining in the sun.

The navy's review alone shocked the envoys from neighboring countries who were watching the ceremony. If the five major military regions gathered together and tens of thousands of horses galloped in the horse farms in the north, they would have been defeated in terms of momentum.

The northwest region has already begun to plant willows, carry out greening, and build the silk tea-horse road, which has become a land commercial road.

Daming has the capital to make neighboring countries surrender.And this is just the beginning.Young Daming grew up under the sun and the moon.

At this moment, Zhu Biao did not forget the old Zhu behind him, he must always give himself the face of the emperor Lao Tzu, the greatest dignity!Let everyone remember Emperor Hongwu.

When returning, Lao Zhu reminded Zhu Biao that he was going to visit Cao Guogong's family and his uncle.

Zhu Biao understood the meaning of Li Wenzhong's family to Zhu Yuanzhang, so he nodded and said that he would visit after the sun went down.

Tomorrow is the first time for the new king to go to court, and Zhu Biao will light the first fire.
