Chapter 1197 Auspicious Days of the Zodiac
As the throne ceremony approaches, every household in the streets and alleys in Beijing begins to decorate lights and hang red and green.
Speaking of which, the people in the capital are also busy enough. Not long ago, they just hung white lanterns and white cloth banners and the whole people were mourning, and they were mourning for Zhu Houzhao who died. During this period, they were not allowed to sing, drinking, laugh, and they had to cry and cry.

But in a blink of an eye, the order was issued. The white lanterns should be replaced with red lanterns, and the white lanterns should be replaced with red lanterns. There should be no frowning on the face, but a smile on the grin, because the new emperor ascended the throne and celebrated the whole world together, how could he look sad?
In the streets and alleys, they turned their faces and changed in an instant. This is the power of political power. At the last moment, people would cry, but at the next moment, you must laugh. What the superiors need, the people would do. As for the people’s ideas? That’s a big deal? Who cares about the ideas of ants? Ants just need to be obedient and do not need to have a brain.
Starting from the evening of the 27th, the palaces began to be cleaned up. Especially the Ganqing Palace, which the Xinhuang was about to move into, naturally had to undergo a major cleanup. Everything about Zhu Houzhao naturally needed to be cleared. The Xinhuang clearly stated that he did not like luxurious and magnificent styles. He liked the simple and simple styles.
Therefore, the luxurious and wealthy flower and bird screens in the Ganqing Palace should be replaced, and the gorgeous carpets should be replaced. The red painted pillars should also be covered with plain gold paper. Some of the toys that the emperor likes, except for some of them buried with him, are all left in the Ganqing Palace.
The eunuchs from the Xingwang Mansion who came to Beijing with Zhu Houguan passed the message back and forth, conveying Zhu Houguan's various requirements. Not only the eyes ornaments of the residence, but also the flowers and trees in the yard had to take care of them. Zhu Houguan didn't like bamboo, so the eunuchs had to dig all the dense Xiangfei bamboos in the Ganqing Palace garden overnight.
In addition to the Ganqing Palace, the final cleaning of Kunning Palace also came.
The cleaning of Kunning Palace is not mainly about objects, but about people.
The new emperor is about to ascend the throne, and Empress Xia, as the queen, must move out of Kunning Palace before the emperor ascends the throne. After her husband dies, Empress Xia does not have the qualifications to continue living in Kunning Palace.
In the years since her marriage, there has been no deep feelings between Empress Xia and Zhu Houzhao. Empress Xia has a calm personality and is not what Zhu Houzhao likes. Empress Xia herself never takes the initiative to please her. If Zhu Houzhao loves her, she will come, and she will not complain if she doesn't come. It is quiet and comfortable to raise birds and flowers in Kunning Palace.
In fact, Empress Xia and Zhu Houzhao have very little time together, and they have not even really had a heart-to-heart talk, and they talked about the couple's personal relationship. None of these are. It is better to say that they are familiar strangers than husband and wife. It is just a good time to have a meal together during festivals.

When Zhu Houzhao died, Empress Xia also cried to death. But the tears were somewhat due to the pain caused by the death of the man named Zhu Houzhao, or because Zhu Houzhao's death, Empress Xia had a difficult life in the future, so she felt sad and lamented. No one knew this.
Everyone was comforting the Queen Mother's grief, busy with Zhu Houzhao's great mourning, looking for and preparing for the new emperor's ascension. However, few people focused on Queen Xia to comfort this poor woman who had lost her husband. As if she had been forgotten by everyone, Queen Xia silently did everything according to etiquette during this period. At the same time, she also instructed the female official to clean up and clean up early.
Therefore, when the inner officials came to invite Queen Xia and told Queen Xia that she would move out of Kunning Palace tonight, Queen Xia nodded lightly and gave a gentle command. Several personal palace maids and eunuchs, carrying a few packages of daily necessities she used, carried two pots of orchids she raised with her own hands, and a thrush bird that Queen Xia liked, left Kunning Palace without looking back and went to Changchun Palace, her new residence.
Although there was a death in Changchun Palace, many people died inexplicably when Empress Zhou lived there. No one wanted to live there yet. But Empress Xia lived in without any complaints.
In the Yanxi Palace, Empress Dowager Zhang was in a complicated mood. She didn't need to make much preparations here. As the Empress Dowager, she would not have many roles tomorrow. She just accepted the worship and came to the court behind the curtain. She did not participate in many ritual things.
Empress Dowager Zhang insisted on not having someone hang a red lantern in the palace. Her son had just passed away for a few days, and she often thought about him in her heart. Although her son did not feel the deep mother-son relationship with him when he was alive, and even got angry about some of his actions. But when he died, he truly felt that everything would change after losing Zhu Houzhao.
No matter what kind of person his son was when he was alive, he would be the veritable empress dowager when he was alive. His son was the emperor, and no one could be accused of her as the empress dowager. His son was in charge of the world and he would be the mother of the world.
My son is gone, and I have changed to someone else. I am not the same as myself, nor the flesh and blood. I am not his mother after all. I have been making trouble these two days, let alone the future.
Moreover, my son has just passed away for half a month. Now the ministers and servants in the palace are talking about words like "The New Emperor, the New Emperor, the New Emperor." It's really a cold tea as soon as people leave, and it's time to time.
Some people in the palace have already started to make decisions, and Empress Dowager Zhang has seen signs. Some people can no longer suppress their mood and want to surrender to the new emperor and get new opportunities in the new dynasty. From eunuchs to palace maids to concubines, they all have an indescribable throbbing and excitement. The filial piety clothes can no longer suppress their mood.

Even though I was angry and sad, this was the current situation. Not only the emperor, I was afraid that I would soon be forgotten by them.
Before this throne ceremony, people's hearts were intertwined and complex. Some were full of nostalgia, some were full of expectations, some were calm, and some were resentful. In any case, the replacement of new and old seems inevitable and is coming quickly.
August 28, the ninth year of Zhengde, Daming, is the auspicious day of the zodiac.
In the morning, the sound of bells and drums resounded throughout the Ming Dynasty’s capital Beijing.
All the Ming ministers wearing brand new official dresses walked slowly from the Ming Gate, went straight into Chengtian Gate, and entered the Meridian Gate into the palace. Yang Tinghe, the chief minister of the cabinet, and all the civil and military officials went to Wenhua Hall to kneel on the ground to express their invitation, asking the new emperor to go to the throne ceremony.
After three invitations and three rejections, the fake Kamaga made a show, Zhu Houcon finally reluctantly allowed to ascend the throne and accepted the suggestions from the ministers. So the eunuch immediately went to help change his clothes and the ministers welcomed the new emperor out and boarded the car.
According to the process, the first step to ascending the throne is to lead the civil and military ministers to the Heaven and Earth Altar in Zhengnanfang to pay homage to heaven and earth.
After offering sacrifices to heaven, he worshiped the ancestors of the Zhu family and comforted the emperors of all dynasties. Later, he ascended to the throne of Fengtian Hall, accepted congratulations from all ministers, issued an edict to pardon the world, and completed the entire process of ascension to the throne.
Therefore, surrounded by the camp of the Great Han General of the Jinyiwei, the ministers and chariots and horses followed each other, and came out of the palace with drums and music. They slowly came out of the Daming Gate of the Meridian Gate and slowly walked towards the Zhengyang Gate.
On the streets of the inner and outer cities, there were crowds of people, crowded on the imperial roads inside Zhengyang Gate and Yongding Gate. They were waiting for the arrival of the new imperial carriage.

The drums and music are brilliant, and the ceremonial ceremony is pomp. Under the autumn sun, the people are noisy and the people are clamoring.
Zhu Houcan sat under the umbrella of the carriage and saw everything in front of him, and his heart was so excited that it was about to explode. Everything in front of him was like a dream. But he knew that all this was not a dream.
I am going to be the emperor, and all this will finally come true. It is really incredible, incredible, like a dream and a illusion.
...
To the north of the capital city, on the official road leading to the north gate of the capital city, a team of cavalry was speeding between the mountains and fields.
Thousands of cavalry swept through the autumn mountains like the wind, and were extremely fast. They were marching at a combat speed that charges forward.
Zhang Yanling took the lead, the black war horse under his crotch was breathing, and white saliva flowed in his mouth. But Zhang Yanling had no idea to let him rest. The horse whip ruthlessly whipped on its buttocks, urging it to run wildly.
Finally, under the rising sun, the towering and tall walls of Beijing City appeared in front of us, and the tall towers of Deshengmen became clearer and clearer. The expressions of Zhang Yanling and others became more and more colder.
After leaving for more than three months, I finally returned to the capital. Compared to the past when I left the capital, the feeling this time was very special. Because unprecedented changes were happening in the capital, everything was very different from before. This time I returned to the capital, I was not back to enjoy reunion and peace, but to face a bloody storm.
Half past Chen, a thousand naval cavalry led by Zhang Yanling, the king of Jinghai of the Ming Dynasty, arrived at the Desheng Gate, the north gate of the capital.

At this moment, the city gate of Deshengmen was closed and the suspension bridge was pulled up high. The soldiers guarding the city gate were looking down at the thousand cavalry rushing to the city. The guards were the Jinyi Guards, and the leader was the Jinyi Guards Qianhu, named Guo Song.
"Listen, the defenders at the city, quickly open the city gate. The governor of the Ming Northern Expedition Army, the governor of the Ming Naval Army, the deputy governor of the Ming regiment battalion, and the Ming Jinghai King Zhang Yanling returned to Beijing to attend the funeral. Open the city gate quickly." Huo Shijian shouted loudly to the city gate with his loud voice and fluent speech.
