·The canonization ceremony was the most important political event in the Ming Dynasty.
There are eight civil servants among the attendant officials in Fengtian Hall. They are busy writing in every corner of Fengtian Hall.
Then there are the ministers in the palace, the imperial censor, the ceremonial envoy, and Shang Baoqing. They stand in the east of the main hall, and the military attache in the class stands in the west of the main hall.
The two archguard officers stood on the left and right sides of the middle door of Fengtian Hall, that is, they were required to be by the Crown Prince's side at all times.
In addition to this, there are twenty-four generals at specific locations.
Accompanied by Gao Yi, Zhu Youkai completed the kneeling ceremony. He stood up amidst the shouts of the salute officer, and then Gao Yi led him to the second position of worship. This position was already very close to the edict and treasure book... …
And when Zhu Youkai arrived for the second time to pray.
The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the Fengtian Hall. The sandalwood incense burner in the Fengtian Hall was burning, and the smoky scene was very clear. Zhu Youkai looked at this thing, a little curious, and lost his mind. When he was lost, he placed The big drum placed outside made its first sound, solemn and slow. Zhu Youkai also regained his composure and looked back frequently.
Outside the Meridian Gate, after hearing the sound of drums, the Meridian Gate opened wide, and hundreds of Jinwu Guards soldiers began to walk out of the Meridian Gate and lined up on the east and west sides of the Meridian Gate. The honor guard outside the Fengtian Hall also began to wave. Flag in own hands.
The civil and military officials outside the Meridian Gate also began to enter the Meridian Gate and go to the East Palace.
The ceremonial guards displayed by the Gongwei Department stretch from the east side of Danbi in Fengtian Hall to the east and west sides of Danqi. The thin chariot trains are displayed in the Wen Building and south of the Wu Building. The Dian Mu officer guides the ceremonial horse team to the south of the chariot trains. Tigers, leopards, and precious elephants were placed outside Fengtian Gate. He Shenglang, who was in charge of Shaole, began to enter Fengtian Gate, and Chen Le was in the south of Danqi.
The Gongwei Division also had to prepare drum music, ceremonial guards, and a guard of honor outside Fengtian Gate. A large honor guard of thousands of people appeared outside Fengtian Hall.
The main thing is that it is large in scale and magnificent.
These are all prepared to wait for a while and escort the crown prince to the East Palace.
The second drumbeat also sounded, Gao Yi reminded him again, and Zhu Youkai completed his second worship to his father.
Zhu Jianshen, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had a strange feeling in his heart as he watched his sixth son kneeling before him.
It's unclear, the way is unclear.
But subconsciously, Zhu Jianshen still skewed this weird feeling in a good direction.
It seems now that Zhu Youkai, who is only three years old and is surrounded by almost strangers, has surpassed many children of the same age without crying or making trouble.
After Zhu Youkai stood up.
Xu Youzhen, who had been standing next to the book, turned around and saluted Zhu Jianshen, then in full view of everyone, he picked up the book of conferment and read it out...
After the reading, Xu Youzhen slowly approached Zhu Youkai. When Zhu Youkai was less than five steps away, he knelt down and raised the canonization book with both hands.
Then, Zhu Youkai stepped forward, took the canonization book into his hands, and then returned to worship.
"Zhu Youkai, the emperor's sixth legitimate son, is appointed as the crown prince..." the salute official shouted.
The sound of ritual music outside Fengtian Hall sounded again.
After receiving the edict, Zhu Youkai knelt down and worshiped again.
When the ceremony in Fengtian Hall was almost over, His Majesty the Emperor raised his tent and left.
Zhu Youkai once again knelt down to send his father away.
At this time, everything was going smoothly, but when Zhu Youkai left Fengtian Hall and passed by Menkai, he accidentally fell to the ground, and the treasure in his hand slipped from his hand and rolled several meters away.
This small incident frightened Gao Yi beside him and everyone in Fengtian Hall.
Xu Youzhen took a breath of air, and the crown prince took out the treasure. This, this is a bit unlucky... Could it be that it indicates that the crown prince will not be able to ascend to the throne in the end, and will let go halfway. Thinking of this, Xu Youzhen did not dare to think any further. go……
Gao Yi hurriedly helped Zhu Youkai up, and a young eunuch also picked up the treasure and knelt beside Zhu Youkai. Although he fell, Zhu Youkai did not make trouble. He picked up the treasure again and pointed it outside. He walked away, with Xu Youzhen, Zhan Yang and others following behind him.
After Zhu Youkai left Fengtian Palace, he first returned to Kunning Palace.
After worshiping my father, I will go to worship my mother.
Gao Yi guided the crown prince Zhu Youkai to enter through the east gate of the main hall of Kunning Palace, and the music was loud. BIquGe.biz
Queen Zhang Yan also wore a queen's dress and sat on the throne in the main hall.
Arriving at Kunning Palace, Zhu Youkai became a little more lively.
When they came to worship in the hall, the internal praise officer sang: "Kneel down."
The Crown Prince knelt.
Zhu Youkai hesitated for a moment, but after Gao Yi's reminder, he knelt down.
"Zhu Youkai is hereby appointed to the throne, and I bow to His Majesty the Queen Mother to express my gratitude."
After Zhu Youkai finished speaking, the internal praise officer shouted: "Fall down and rise".
Then Zhu Youkai began to kowtow.
After the ceremony was over, Gao Yi led the crown prince out from the east gate of the palace, and the music started playing again.
At this time, outside the Kunning Palace, his eldest brother, the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Youluo, and his three brothers, as well as the younger emperor's uncles who had not yet left the capital, knelt down and worshiped the crown prince after Zhu Youluo appeared. .
At this time, Zhu Youkai looked at his uncles, and his brothers were all kowtowing to him, and he had a vague idea deep in his heart.
It seems that I am a little different from before.
Of course, today's small impact on Zhu Youkai's inner world is far from over.
Outside the East Palace, civil and military officials placed the congratulatory notes prepared in advance in the note box.
Then the official Zhan sent people to carry the letter box into the main hall of the East Palace.
The East Palace at this time was the Wenhua Hall, which was built during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Gaochi, the executive deputy emperor at that time, lived and worked here.
Zhu Youkai rode the chariot to the outside of the East Palace and entered through the main entrance.
Then, under the guidance of Gao Yi, he sat on the throne of the prince.
After sitting down, civil and military officials began to enter the palace.
Wen is in the east and Wu is in the west. They are in different positions and are all standing facing north.
And the officials such as the receiving official, the commending officer and the deacons all took their places.
The class officer sang: "Ban Qi"
The salute official sings: "Bow down, worship."
In music, Li Xian, the chief minister of the cabinet, and Chen Ying, Duke of Ning, all bowed, bowed four times, and died happily...
As for Zhu Youkai, who was sitting on the throne of the prince, seeing so many people kneeling below him, the impact on his heart was even greater...
Since then, the etiquette has been initially completed, and Zhu Youkai has truly become the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, possessing the legitimacy to legally inherit the huge empire.
However, the initial completion does not mean that it is completely completed. The Crown Prince will also choose a day to pay homage to his ancestors at the Ancestral Temple...
