Four hundred and ninetieth chapters ascend the throne
Liu Xiang wore a twelve-haired emperor's crown, a black top and a crimson skirt. This imperial robe was made in Zhou Dynasty and was the most solemn dress in the Qin and Han Dynasties, but it did not suit his aesthetics.
Each of the twelve crowns has twelve white jade beads strung with colorful silk threads. The weight of the one hundred and forty-four jade beads is not light. There are also two pieces of topaz hanging next to the ears on both sides.
This emperor's crown is heavier than a cast steel helmet, blocks the view, and is uncomfortable to wear on the head.
At first, I was a little excited. Listening to the mountains roaring with praises like a tsunami and watching tens of millions of people worshiping me, my adrenaline was soaring. But once the excitement passed, I just felt tired.
From early morning to noon, he offered sacrifices to his ancestors, paid homage to the gods, paraded on royal roads, and accepted worship from the army and the people. He didn't even have time to drink a sip of water or catch a morsel of rice. It was really painful.
He saw Cui Yi secretly eating dried meat. Why didn’t you, bastard, give me some?
Maybe I made a huge mistake by not using eunuchs to accompany me. Su Wei and Huben who were following me were rough guys and not considerate at all!
Tired, hungry and thirsty.
Ascension to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor can only satisfy psychological needs, but will cause physical suffering.
Finally entering the main hall, Liu Yu, as a Zongzheng, presented the imperial seal, the treasure found in a dry well in Luoyang, for the first time on a formal occasion. All the officials in the hall looked excited.
In an era where kings are given power by heaven, this thing is a big killer!
Liu Xiang took this token, which represented orthodoxy, and invited the emperor's six treasures and seven jade seals to be put on the table.
He slowly came to the emperor's seat, which faced north and south, and was sitting on a soft couch, accepting the heads of the officials to pay their respects.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty on your arrival in the Imperial Palace!"
"No gifts, stay on your own terms!"
The main hall is very large and can accommodate more than 3,000 people. Apricot wood beams stand in the hall, dividing different areas.
The elegant music was played unhurriedly, the congratulatory statements from the officials, the congratulatory statements from the princes and kings, and the credential of the vassal country were recited one by one.
The sense of ritual was very strong, and Liu Xiang was very hungry.
Sitting straight, I didn't dare to relax at all.
My first day as emperor was not a good experience.
Nagging, nagging, nagging, this person finished talking, and that person said, over and over again, they were all laudatory phrases, until the afternoon.
Finally I can rest.
After the dynasty is over, a banquet is given in the evening, and the enthronement ceremony is completed.
Tomorrow the court will issue the first edict, and he will officially become the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
The weather in September was cool and breezy, and the officials of the next court walked very quickly. The hurried footsteps exposed the physiological needs of these people. They were probably thirsty and hungry like themselves. In order to avoid making a fool of themselves during the ceremony, many people probably also
I don’t dare to eat or drink too much in the morning.
The enthronement ceremony was finally over, and everyone probably breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Xiang grabbed Cui Yi's lapel and snatched a piece of good beef breast.
It smells so good!
He is starving.
"You don't know how to share some good things with me, won't your conscience hurt?" Taking the water bag handed over by the attendant, he chewed the meat jerky fiercely and couldn't wait to go to the dining room to get food.
Cui Yi carefully looked around and saw that all the officials in the palace had left. He breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that I will be impeached if I fail to behave before you."
"What the hell, am I going to blame you for eating meat secretly?" After eating a piece of meat as big as a palm and drinking some water, Liu Xiang finally calmed down. He had been stared at by so many people before.
He couldn't even steal food.
"Your Majesty is the emperor now." Cui Yi sighed with emotion, his tone was very complicated, and his mood was also very complicated. Maybe it was because he was older and thought too much.
This sentence has no beginning and no end. Liu Xiang is a little confused. Today is just a process. He already has the right. Where does he come from so many emotions?
"Why has Zian become sentimental? This is not your character."
"I suddenly felt as if I was in a dream. I was a little scared. When I woke up, I was still the same small team leader who had wasted eight years struggling in the north. It was difficult to even support his family."
Cui Yi seemed to be a different person. A ceremony and the title of emperor made him a little worried about gain and loss, and he didn't even know how to get along with the familiar lord.
Liu Xiang's modern thinking does not attach much importance to the title of emperor. Before today and after today, his rights have not changed much, and his mentality has not changed much.
I really can't understand Cui Yi's awe for the title of emperor.
"Come with me for a walk." He likes to look around outside the main hall door, because this is the highest place in the palace, with the platform base alone being fifteen meters long, not counting the height of Longshou Mountain.
"Weiyang Palace has more than fifty palaces, including Xuanshi, Qilin, Jinhua, Chengming, Wutai, Gouyi, Shoucheng, Long live, Guangming, Jiaofang, Qingliang, Yongyan, Yutang, Shou'an, Pingjiu,
Xuande, Dongming, Suiyu, Fenghuang, Tongguang, Qutai, Baihu, Yilan, Wuyuan, etc.
Many of them were damaged, and many people petitioned to have the palace repaired, but I ignored them. Do you know why?"
Liu Xiang sat down on the steps, patted the seat next to him, and invited Cui Yi to sit next to him.
He couldn't understand what his most trusted Yuan Cong was thinking at this time, and he needed to talk to him.
Cui Yi hesitated for a moment, and Liu Xiang patted the steps next to him: "Sit over here."
"Wei." Cui Yi was sitting unsteadily, leaning sideways with only half of his butt touching the ground. His legs were still working hard and he could stand up at any time.
Liu Xiang frowned slightly. He only had the title of emperor, and nothing else. The soldiers and horses were still the same soldiers and horses, the money and food were still the same, the rights were still the same, and he was still the same self, but the changes in his subordinates
It's very big.
He sighed: "It's been ten years, Zian. It's been ten years since we started the army. The world has not been calmed down yet, and Mobei doesn't know when we will be able to conquer it. I don't have money to build palaces, so what's the use of building so many palaces? Waiting.
If someone hits you, will you burn it on fire?
If we have the money to build a palace, why not open up more wasteland, grow more food, and build more soldiers and armor? If we have soldiers and food, we can rob other people's palaces. How cost-effective this is, don't you think?"
Cui Yi stood up with a groan, cupped his fists and saluted: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Liu Xiang rolled her eyes and looked at him, and said helplessly: "Can you sit down peacefully? This is not the first time we have sat together and talked. Why are you so nervous today? This is not your temperament. Just now you were
You secretly ate dried meat during the enthronement ceremony, why are you so submissive now?"
Cui Yi gave an embarrassed giggle and sat down on the next step: "His Majesty is the emperor now..."
Before he finished speaking, an attendant suddenly appeared from the corridor. He pointed his finger like a sword and shouted righteously: "How dare the traitor be on an equal footing with His Majesty? He should be killed!"
Liu Xiang turned around and glared at this ignorant guy, and scolded with a stern face: "Get out of here!"
Cui Yi was the first General Yuan Cong who followed him and laid the foundation for his rebellion. His mentality was not right today, and he needed to understand his thoughts.
Where did such an ignorant thing come from?
Liu Xiang narrowed his eyes and wanted to kill someone.
