According to the etiquette system, officials of the third rank or above can enter the palace in sedan chairs to attend the morning court every day.
In other words, today is the first time that Qi Yu, who has just been promoted to the second rank, enters the palace directly without taking the No. 11 bus.
Originally, this was just a symbol of favor and nothing to show off. However, when he saw the walkers shivering with cold on both sides of the road, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.
Look!
The majestic Hall of Supreme Harmony is as bright as the sun and stars, shining brightly and showing supreme majesty amid luxury.
On both sides of the hall, a group of civil and military ministers and royal nobles stood in rows. They were all arranged in order according to their official positions. They stood neatly and looked orderly.
Although Qi Yu is now a second-rank official, he is still a young junior in front of these veteran ministers and is not qualified to stand in the front.
However, he deliberately kept a low profile this time and did not show any sense of arrogance after his promotion.
Lu Boxuan nodded and smiled when he saw this, and said to the cabinet members seemingly unintentionally: "It is said in the Taishi Gongshu that if you don't say anything, you will make your own mistakes. What this sentence describes is exactly the elegance of Mr. Qi, which is not like a certain person.
These people have just been promoted to a big position, and they can't bear to show off."
Liang Yingzhong felt very unhappy when he saw his innuendo. He wanted to say something back to him, but due to the inappropriate situation at the moment, he had to hold back and keep quiet.
Qi Yu was far away, so naturally he couldn't hear the high-level officials' quarrels with each other. At this time, he was gloating about something.
oh?
how do I say this?
Look, a lead cloud came from nowhere outside the main hall, and after a few whimpers, it actually started to snow heavily.
This sudden drop in temperature froze the sesame officials outside the palace.
Their faces were pale, and they were huddled up and shivering in the cold wind. With this look, how could they still have any dignity as officials?
Cough, spit!
Yushi Jiuyi couldn't stand it anymore. He braved the cold wind and heavy snow and walked shivering outside the palace. He cursed: If you don't correct your posture, I will punish you.
What a disgrace before the emperor!
Please tell me the psychological shadow of the Sesame officials at this moment.
Back to business.
Just when the officials in the palace were about to start chanting snow, the symbolic "Dianmao" began.
According to the attendance statistics, basically everyone is here except for some who are sick and unable to come.
Snapped!
A sudden blast of a whip rang through the ears, and at the same time it shocked people's spirits.
The first morning morning session of the new year has officially begun!
I saw Emperor Li Liangji of Dafeng wearing a brand-new dragon robe of yellow with red, and with the careful support of San Dezi, he walked to the holy case in a swaying manner to the beat of the drummer.
"The great dynasty begins..."
"Long live my emperor, long live long live..."
After the tidal wave of cheers subsided, the meeting directly entered the established process.
The etiquette is roughly the same as in previous years. The master of ceremonies still displays the documents of various countries first, and then the governors present the New Year's greetings. After that, the annual tributes of the vassal states and local vassal kings are announced, etc.
At this stage, the surrender documents of Luzon and Dawan were very conspicuous, which directly caused waves of sighs.
With the emperor's permission, the two books were circulated among the ministers to satisfy their curiosity.
"This is just the beginning..."
"The future territory of the Great Feng Dynasty will only be bigger than this..."
The speaker seems to have no intention, but the listener does.
Yes, the envoys from foreign countries who came from afar all trembled in their hearts when they heard this, and seemed to realize something.
The tone of Emperor Dafeng's words seemed a little unkind...
Little did they know that something even more shocking was yet to come.
The emperor seized this opportunity and directly issued the imperial edict that he had prepared long ago, solemnly announcing: The King of Luzon canonized as the Duke of Anle of Luzon, and he and his descendants will be blessed with the holy grace forever and live in the city for generations to come, and so on.
In addition, a group of natives in Dawan also received the rewards they deserved, showing Huang En's magnanimity.
After announcing the decree, the emperor sat upright. He looked down at the ministers of civil and military affairs under the jade steps, with an expression of "please praise me now".
Well……
Who will take the first shot of the new year?
When this opportunity arose, Wu Wanrong naturally did his part. He went out with a scepter in his hand and said with high spirits: "Wow! Since the first year of Yuan Yun, my emperor has been broadcasting literature and education and reorganizing teachings. Talented people have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain.
. This is a sign of the heyday of civilized governance. However, His Majesty’s martial arts have not declined even half a step. Over the years, I have fought against tigers and wolves in the north and defeated Japanese pirates in the east. Everywhere I pointed my sword, I broke bamboos and pacified them. Now, again,
With Luzon and Dawan nearby, this is a veritable expansion of territory! With such great achievements across the world, even if Emperor Qin is still alive and Han Wu is resurrected, it will only be like this, right?"
"The sage has a saying that if people from far away are dissatisfied, they will cultivate their virtues and come here. However, Luzon and Dawan took the initiative to attach themselves to them out of admiration. It can be seen that your Majesty's virtues have already been broadcast to the world... If you add the years
The auspiciousness of the past has suddenly appeared. Your Majesty has now achieved three unparalleled achievements in culture, governance and martial arts. His moral conduct is unimpeded and auspiciousness has appeared in this world. Forgive me for being stupid, but I can't find suitable words to express my praise!"
Wu Wanrong spoke impassionedly, but the audience looked confused.
If it's so disgusting, it's really...worth learning.
After one-tenth of the incense burned, all the ministers finally came to their senses and began to follow suit.
In an instant, the court turned into a sea of wonderful praises, and the sound of flattery could be heard endlessly.
"Your Majesty's achievements have shocked the past and the present. How can they be compared to those of the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty?"
"At present, Dafeng's country is at peace all over the world, and there are people from far away abroad who are eager to enjoy such a prosperous world. Your Majesty can take care of it."
"..."
The people below were playing with great passion, and the people above felt comfortable all over.
Look, the Holy Emperor has his eyes narrowed, a smile hanging from the corners of his mouth, tapping his knees with one hand and a look of intoxication on his brows. He looks like he has fallen into a honey jar of happiness.
This is kind of like...a daydream?
Ahem, it's only nine o'clock now, it's not yet dawn, so where is the daylight?
"Your Majesty, you are now an eminent emperor who possesses both civil and martial arts, unimpeded moral conduct, and good fortune. In the opinion of my ministers, it is better for you to respond to the time of heaven and the will of the people. In the middle of this year, you will be enshrined in Mount Tai.
Show the light of this prosperous age." Wu Wanrong kept up his efforts and continued to show off.
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Because everyone wants to know the answer.
Qi Yu also followed the trend and held his breath, raised his head and watched the emperor's every move from a distance.
Just when everyone thought that this matter was almost certain, the emperor gave an ambiguous answer.
"Let's not discuss this matter for now, let's talk about it later..."
Huh~~
How strange!
Your Majesty did not readily agree!
Qi Yu frowned slightly, feeling a little confused in his heart.
