In Chongyuan Hall, Liu Chengyou stood up from the throne, holding an ordinary celadon cup in his hand. As an emperor, every move he makes is watched, and his move immediately attracts the attention of the entire palace, which becomes even more solemn.

Under the intense gaze, Liu Chengyou walked up to the imperial steps, held the wine glass in front of his chest, looked around habitually, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The great ancestor Emperor Jian eliminated chaos and evil, and transformed his family into a country. I rescued souls from the ruins, created the king's business in the face of hardships, and just after establishing the world, I suddenly left my bow and sword. With my humble bow, I inherited the legacy. Since I was appointed, I have walked on the ice with courage and no sleep, only hoping for peace."

"However, the way of heaven is difficult. At the time of succession, there are many things happening in all directions. Wu and Shu are invading, the Khitan is provoking, and there is a rebellion in the river. Xili is fearful and the clan is in danger. Fortunately, all the ministers work together and the soldiers serve with their lives to assist me. Tigo marched forward, wiped out the stubborn enemies, wiped out the foreign invaders, stabilized the country, and restored tranquility to the Central Plains..."

"..."

As soon as Liu Chengyou opened his mouth, he spent less than half a cup of tea and memorized it in advance. This chapter was written by Tao Gu. The writing style is steady and the word "lick" is vaguely highlighted. It gives a relatively complete account of Liu Chengyou's succession to the throne. The "literary and martial arts" in the past year.

Although Liu Chengyou was narrating orally, it is still somewhat sincere, especially considering the difficulties along the way, which is really not easy.

In fact, even though Liu Chengyou has done a lot since he came to the throne, all his actions have only one core goal, to secure the throne and gain power, and the rest are just appearances. I can't even sit still on my butt. I want to talk about civil and martial arts, talk about national peace and prosperity, and talk about great achievements for a long time to come.

Even now, is Liu Chengyou's throne secure? Not necessarily, not to mention anything else, as long as Liu Chengyou truly affects the core interests of the vassal towns in various places, he can guarantee that someone will dare to follow Li Shouzhen's example. The road is still far away, very long, and the path of search is full of thorns.

After finishing his speech, Liu Chengyou paid attention to the expressions of His Highness's ministers. Of course, he could only see the generals in the front row. The minister who was really worried about the efforts of the Han Dynasty was more or less touched. Even Yang Bin's face was rare without the usual seriousness, and his eyes seemed to be in a trance.

"I held a banquet in the main hall and invited all the officials, not only to celebrate the solar term with all the ministers, but also to eliminate national troubles for the Han Dynasty. I hope that the Han Dynasty will be prosperous at home and the subjects will regain their rest!" Liu Chengyou's hand holding the wine glass was already sore, but Still steady, a high-pitched voice echoed in the hall, with a hint of joy: "Come, let me have a drink with you all!"

After speaking, Liu Chengyou drank it all in one gulp, and the not-so-strong royal wine poured into his mouth, moistening his throat that was thirsty from talking.

Seeing this, all the ministers in the palace responded and drank together. The movements are not neat, but the rustling movement is not small.

"Tonight, I will have a good time with all my ministers, no need to be restrained!" Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn due to his speech, Liu Chengyou waved his dragon robe and ordered loudly.

Soon, Li Ye, the Hui Xuan envoy who was in charge of directing this palace banquet, immediately arranged it. Vocal music started, singing and dancing began. Since the founding of the country, the actors in the Jiaofang finally had room to perform again. Graceful figures danced before our eyes, festive court music played in our ears, and the atmosphere became lively again inside and outside the palace.

Liu Chengyou was connected to the Queen Mother's dining table, and Mrs. Li was in regular attire, with a smile on her lips. Seeing this, Liu Chengyou couldn't help but ask: "Mom, why are you laughing?"

Mrs. Li looked at Liu Chengyou and smiled warmly: "Guan Erlang has just spoken. He is convinced both internally and externally. His majesty is growing day by day, and he is becoming more and more dignified and majestic as an emperor. I am happy for you, and I am happy for the great Han Dynasty."

It can be seen that there is a kind of relief and relaxation from the heart on Li's phoenix-eyed forehead. Feeling something in his heart, Liu Chengyou said: "No matter how king I am, I am also my mother's son."

Immediately, he raised his glass respectfully: "My wife, here's a toast to you."

After finishing the drink, Mrs. Li put down her wine glass gracefully. She glanced at the lively scene in the palace and said with emotion: "Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, although there have been grand ceremonies, this palace has never been so lively. It is very rare. !”

Hearing this, Liu Chengyou nodded and said in a calm and confident tone: "This is just the beginning. From now on, it will get better and better!"

But Li shook her head slightly, with a hint of persuasion in her words: "The money is empty, the country is in difficulty, and the officials should still be..."

"Well..." Li changed her words slightly and said, "The frugality advocated by officials is actually an example for others!"

"I understand!" Liu Chengyou responded respectfully, not minding the Queen Mother's warning tone.

"Official family."

During the conversation, Empress Da Fu and Imperial Concubine Gao came to pay their respects. On this occasion, the empress and concubine seemed to have a deep love for each other as sisters. Their behavior was in line with etiquette, and they did not reveal any inadequacies. The queen should maintain her own identity, while the noble concubine should know how to advance and retreat.

Liu Chengyou's attention was slightly attracted by the young lady next to the queen. Erfu usually lived in the Tokyo mansion. Although he visited the palace from time to time, Liu Chengyou really only met her occasionally. Seeing it this time during the banquet was quite refreshing. Her face is still childish, and her beautiful face is similar to that of Da Fu. They are sisters after all.

He briefly spoke to his sister-in-law, and although he quickly moved away to divert his attention, Liu Chengyou's eyes at that moment were still keenly captured by Da Fu, and he frowned slightly, but she had heard some rumors. .....

Chongyuan's imperial banquet was not too restrictive. On the one hand, Liu Chengyou was the first to speak up, and on the other hand, the monarch's power had just begun to rise, but it had not yet awe-ed the civil and military officials. Especially when Gan Qiu Ba was at the banquet, they took the lead in changing cups and changing cups, and the atmosphere was naturally "harmonious".

Amidst the commotion and the banquet, all the Jiedushi who came to Beijing to have an audience stood up and raised their glasses in unison to pay homage to Liu Chengyou, the Queen Mother and the Empress.

As Liu Chengyou's old minister, Chengde Jiedu Zhang Yanwei looked high-spirited, smiling and slightly drunk. Compared to last year, his body was obviously bigger. He used to be called rich, but now he is really fat. Obviously, even in Beitu, life seems to be very nourishing.

Among the various festivals, Murong Yanchao still acted like an "uncle of the emperor", and the others were a little more reserved. Only Zhang Yanwei was extremely complimentary, and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, you are so handsome, like the sun in the sky, and you are so heroic. Only by being talented, marrying and serving in the army, and bowing down and throwing stones, can you eliminate evil and eliminate chaos, show the power of heaven, and have the ministers and others admire you with incomparable respect..."

Obviously, this envoy had made a draft in advance before going to the banquet, otherwise he would not have been able to come up with such elegant words.

Zhang Yanwei behaved like this. To be honest, it really lost the dignity of Fangjiedu, especially in an important town like Chengde. However, Liu Chengyou certainly "appreciates" this. Regardless of whether he is sincere or not, this attitude of surrender is worth promoting.

Needless to say, this chapter is short, and so will the next chapter...
