Beijing
Pantheon
Lao Zhu, Xiao Zhu, and Xiao Zhu knelt side by side.
Lao Zhu wears the Nine Dragons sacrificial robe, Zhu Biao wears the Five Dragons sacrificial robe, and Zhu Xiongying wears the Three Dragons sacrificial robe.
Each one is pure black and inlaid with gold,
Looks extremely domineering.
There are still a few scattered tablets in front of the three people.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were slightly red, and he kowtowed three times respectfully to the memorial tablets of his parents and brothers.
Then stood up.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying kowtowed three times together.
Today is the most important day of the whole year.
Spring plowing ceremony.
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang had to dig up a handful of soil and plant seeds before spring plowing.
It means that the emperor is personally plowing the fields, and this year will be a good year.
Before offering sacrifices to Sheji, Lao Zhu thought of bringing Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying to offer a stick of incense to his parents.
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a trembling voice,
“Father, mother, your spirits in heaven,
Be sure to bless your great-grandson. "
then,
Zhu Yuanzhang pulled Zhu Xiongying over,
choked and said,
"Come, eldest grandson,
Talk to your grandma. "
Zhu Yuanzhang is already the Nine-Five Supreme Being.
but,
The painful memories of my parents and brothers being starved to death in my childhood,
It will always be a scar that is difficult to uncover in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
Zhu Xiongying kowtowed three times again.
He looked firmly at the tablet in front of him,
Seriously,
"Master, grandma, great-grandson Xiongying will definitely protect the Zhu family's legacy!
It will definitely bring peace to the world!
I will definitely protect my grandfather and father, as well as the people around me!
Don't worry, you two elders are there! "
"Hahahaha! Dad! Mom!
Do you see it! This is our Zhu family’s Qilin!
All the Zhu family's descendants put together are not as good as our eldest grandson! "
Zhu Biao also looked at Zhu Xiongying with pride.
Three Zhus in the ancestral temple,
They are three generations of a single generation.
"Okay, boss, you also kowtow three times to your grandma.
Even if it’s a shift change. "
Zhu Biao stepped forward and kowtowed three times.
The prince's handover is truly completed at this moment.
As for the subsequent reading of the imperial edict, it was announced to the world.
It's just a form.
Taking the ancestors as evidence, there are only three ancestors of Zhu Yuanzhang,
They completed the transfer of power of the greatest dynasty,
Although the whole process seems very simple,
but,
The wheels of time have begun to turn.
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and
Pull up Zhu Biao with your left hand, and pull up Zhu Xiongying with your right hand.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said,
"Let's go."
The three of them walked side by side and pushed out the door.
The royal instrumental music suddenly sounded, full of solemnity and dignity.
Civil and military officials from all over the dynasty wore the most expensive sacrificial robes and stood bowed around the ancestral temple.
The sun is shining and everything is renewed.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
The three calls of civil and military officials from all over the dynasty, and their calls blended with the dignified rituals and music, gave a sense of destiny.
The princes of the Zhu family were all waiting nearby and were completely unqualified to come to Zhu Yuanzhang's side.
The only affairs of a country are war and sacrifice.
The only people who could stand beside Zhu Yuanzhang were Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying.
Zhu Yuanzhang strode forward and sat on the emperor's sedan chair.
Zhu Biao got on the prince's sedan chair behind him.
Zhu Xiongying was freed for a moment. Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and took Zhu Xiongying's hand and pulled him into the emperor's sedan chair.
He held his eldest grandson in front of him.
The grandson climbed into the emperor's sedan chair.
The royal family, civil and military officials, the whole world is watching.
In an instant, everyone is so happy that their souls are filled with happiness.
They knelt down and shouted in unison,
"Long live His Majesty the Holy Sun!"
It took three calls in a row to stop.
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was solemn, and his every move was already known to the world.
This is the only heir to the great tomorrow!
Anyone else succeeding to the throne is a rebellion!
The whole world can fight it together!
This was the last time Zhu Biao sat on the prince's sedan chair. He had mixed feelings in his heart, but he had no regrets.
There is only infinite expectation for future life.
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Xiongying's back and couldn't help but smile.
The saintly grandson who has gathered all the fortunes of the world and is favored by all,
What is his future like?
The officials walked on foot, holding the two sedans in the middle.
It is said to be a sedan chair, but it is actually two dragon chairs being carried.
However, these two chairs represent the highest power of the dynasty!
The royal palace rituals and music continued all the way,
Zhu Yuanzhang was just sitting there casually, but no one dared to look directly at him.
The procession walked out of the palace, and all the troops in the capital dispersed.
There are no soldiers for the great sacrifice;
They can only protect the safety of the Emperor and His Highness in the dark.
The emperor's sedan chair moves forward all the way,
The people around him looked at Lord Hongwu with admiration. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the people of Ming Dynasty with a smile, not afraid of anyone who dared to plot evil.
Lao Zhu loved these people deeply, and these people also loved Lord Hongwu deeply.
There were solemn rituals and music all the way until we arrived outside the east city gate.
The emperor's sedan and the prince's sedan were put down,
The next way to worship Sheji is to walk.
Zhu Yuanzhang held Zhu Xiongying's hand and walked in the front, followed by the royal family, officials and common people silently behind him.
Zhu Yuanzhang walked up to the altar outside the city,
They hold jade seals in their hands to offer sacrifices to the gods of society and Ji, and also pray for good weather and abundant food in the Ming Dynasty.
at this time,
Except for Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather and grandson who were standing, everyone knelt down.
She is the god of the earth, and Ji is the god of grains.
Zhu Yuanzhang bent down to offer sacrifices to the community and stood up to offer sacrifices to Ji.
After nine times in a row,
Zhu Tong, the Minister of Rites, shouted,
"It's done!!!"
Everyone looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a look of reverence and firm belief on their faces.
They firmly believe that
After Lord Hongwu worships Sheji, this year will definitely be a good year!
Zhu Yuanzhang walked down from the altar. Next to the altar was a farmland.
There is a plowing cow parked in the plowing field. The cow is covered with Lei (three sounds of lei) and Lei (four sounds of four).
Everyone was solemn and attentive,
Zhu Yuanzhang strode forward, rolling up the sleeves of his sacrificial robes, with a hint of anticipation on his face.
The rest of the emperors recommended working in the field three times, and doing the courtesy of joining the field was just a routine matter.
Lao Zhu seemed to be enjoying it,
He just likes the land, likes farming, and likes the feeling of reaping the rewards for every effort.
Zhu Yuanzhang stepped forward, stepped on the cultivated land, and pushed the grass three times.
I dug up the first handful of soil since the beginning of spring,
Starting from this moment, the entire Central Plains region will begin spring plowing in full swing.
"Three pushes, done!"
Zhu Tong, the Minister of Rites, held a jade order in both hands and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang walked down with some unfinished thoughts.
Prince Zhu Biao stepped forward,
The emperor pushed away the fields three times, and the prince pushed away the fields five times.
Zhu Biao bent down, put his hand on Lei Si, and pushed forward five steps.
This single row of cultivated land was completely dug up.
"Five putts, done!"
then,
Each of the six ministers stepped forward and pushed nine steps forward.
After the six ministerial books were pushed through,
This small piece of cultivated land was completely plowed.
Zhu Tong, the Minister of Rites, smiled.
"Nine putts, done!"
"Seed!"
After the fields were opened, the emperor had to sow the seeds before the fields were completed.
Everyone looked at Master Hong Wu, only to find that Master Hong Wu had not moved at all.
He just looked at his eldest grandson with a smile on his face.
Zhu Xiongying untied a brocade cloth bag from his waist and strode forward without any stage fright.
All eyes are on you.
