Chapter 7 Grand Ceremony
The matter was decided by Zhang Guoji, the Marquis of Taikang, and the matter was naturally finalized. The Minister of War, Lu Daqi, said anxiously: "Little Chengyi Bo, I'll ask you for this matter!"
He is more informed than others. He has already heard that His Highness Fu quoted a passage of filial piety when he made three chapters of law. Now that he has high hopes for Empress Zhang, Liu Yongxi also said very straightforwardly: "Okay, leave this matter to me!"
He kept walking and confessing to Mr. Taikang: "Mr. Taikang, have you found a good house? If you can stay in our Chengyi Bo Mansion for a few days, and then move over after the house is built!"
Taikang Hou Zhang Guoji was naturally overjoyed: "This is the best, but I am worried that it will disturb Cao Jiang Chengyi Bo!"
Liu Kongzhao suddenly appeared: "The Empress is willing to visit our Zhenyi Bo Mansion, of course I am extremely welcome. I will let someone free up the house now!"
Although everyone knows that Liu Kongzhao, Liu Yongxi and Zhang Guoji are all in harmony, after getting on board, Empress Zhang is still sacred and solemn at the beginning and refuses to get off the boat.
Fortunately, Liu Yongxi expressed the consensus that he had reached with the ministers of Nandu: "Empress, all the lords are reasonable, but Madam Taikang has not yet bought a house. Please let you temporarily stay in our Zhenyi Bo Mansion during this period!"
Queen Zhang really only trusted Liu Yongxi. Shi Kefa, Han Zanzhou, and Ma Shiying joined forces to persuade Queen Zhang, but after Liu Yongxi said this, she changed her mind: "Since Chengyi Bo said this, then I will go back to the empress's house first. Please trouble Chengyi Bo!"
Since Queen Zhang nodded, half of Nanjing City was busy. After all, Queen Zhang is a crucial role in tomorrow's national supervision ceremony. She has to practice it several times tonight.
Chengyi Bo Mansion is located in the intersection of Liaojia Lane, northeast of Shangyuan County. Although Liu Kongzhao gave up half of Chengyi Bo Mansion at the first time, he still felt it was crowded and even made mistakes from time to time.
After all, Empress Zhang returned to her parents' home in the name of her, so the entire Taikang Marquis Mansion and the entire team around her, the personal guards moved to Chengyi Bo Mansion, and nearly two hundred people were stuffed in one breath.
But no one dared to complain. Liu Kongzhao, a martial artist, put down his figure and served him carefully. Several nearby Dukes and Bo Mansions also tried their best to free up the houses to help. Wang Sunfan, who came to help, accidentally told the truth: "Liu Kongzhao, you father and son are really lucky, and are now invincible!"
If His Highness of King Fu became the lord of the Ming Dynasty's revival, Liu Kongzhao, who had the achievements of making decisions, would naturally rise to the top. If King Fu was not successful, then Liu Yongxi, who was most trusted by Queen Zhang, was also invaluable in fame and wealth. What's more, Empress Zhang, the Marquis of Taikang, and the Chengyi Bo Mansion, now joining forces with the three families, the momentum is no less than that of Duke Wei's Mansion.
Liu Kongzhao also became more and more proud of his thoughts: "In the future, Brother Sun Fan will take care of our sincerity!"
Wang Sunfan admired Liu Yongxi more and more: "Zhengyi Bo, I ask for a private matter. Has your son Yongxi settled a marriage with someone?"
When Liu Kongzhao talked about his son's marriage, he felt a headache, but he couldn't say to Wang Sunfan the cliché like "Yongxi wants to play for a few more years": "This matter is hard to describe. Anyway, his experience in the Beijing camp this time was related to this matter. But at that time I didn't expect the capital to fall so quickly. Fortunately, Yongxi finally got his experience. Let's sit down and have a good chat. Please help me to advise on this matter!"
Wang Sunfan also heard some wind and laughed immediately: "Okay, take Master Yongxi with you then, and let's go to the Qinhuai River to find a flower boat and have fun!"
Liu Kongzhao laughed: "Okay! Have fun at that time and let Yongxi see the world!"
Although he still regarded Liu Yongxi as his half-grown child in his heart, he also vaguely felt that Liu Yongxi would definitely be more successful than himself. However, the capital was lost and Emperor Chongzhen would definitely prohibit officials from traveling and getting married. This trip to Qinhuai would have to wait for a few days.
The next day was the ceremony of King Fu's ascension to the throne. The great figures in Nanjing were naturally a must-have. Liu Yongxi saw many familiar faces, including Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying, Zhao Zhilong, Lu Jiude, Han Zanzhou, and Zhang Shenyan...
No big shot, and all the idle officials from the Six Ministry of Nanjing and the Censorate were full of energy. For most people, they could only participate in such an ascension ceremony in their lifetime. If they could leave a good impression on His Highness the Superintendent, they would not have to worry in their entire lives.
In addition to civil and military officials, there are many gentry in Nanjing. These usually respected figures can only admire the holy appearance of King Fu from afar, but they cannot see almost any details.
As the sincere prince, Liu Yongxi was originally going to be driven away, but yesterday everyone saw that Empress Zhang could not believe anyone except Liu Yongxi. Therefore, today Liu Yongxi became the leader of Empress Zhang's personal guard together with Zhou Zhisheng.
Although today is the ceremony of the throne, everyone is wearing mourning clothes and mourning, and sometimes some people cry and even their eyes are red. After all, Emperor Chongzhen committed suicide by falling into the capital and having the opportunity to be blessed with the king and the country. In order to show his absolute loyalty to the governor, many ministers almost fainted from crying heart-wrenchingly.
Liu Yongxi was enjoying it. After all, he saw another completely different scene. Today, Queen Zhang looked more and more holy and solemn in a filial piety uniform. "If you want to be pretty, you will be filial." In Liu Yongxi's eyes, he said that the more tempting it is, the more tempting it is.
Although Queen Zhang was already crying today, Sister Yan was so beautiful in Liu Yongxi's eyes. Perhaps because of her own nourishment, Queen Zhang is getting younger and younger now, and is at least a teenager younger than her actual age.
The entire ceremony of ascension ceremony is still proceeding step by step. Whether it is His Highness, King Fu or the civil and military officials of Nandu, they are now in the honeymoon period.
Liu Yongxi saw that the eunuch Lu Jiude, the eunuch of Fengyang, had a happy chat with the eunuch of Nanjing, Han Zanzhou, and also saw Ma Shiying, Yang Longyou, Shi Kefa, and Lu Daqi communicated privately, and everyone placed their hopes on His Highness Fu.
For Liu Yongxi, this is not good news. If His Highness King Fu is the Lord of Zhongxing, then he will have to make all the thousands of miles ahead of him. Liu Yongxi still took a meaningful look at His Highness King Fu. He felt that this honeymoon should not last too long.
The first thing to be held was the worship ceremony of heaven. After the ceremony, the king and his ministers entered the hall. Although everyone still had tears on their faces, no matter who they were, they were happy in their hearts.
The various yamen in the Nandu have always had empty titles, and their affairs are few and their power is light. Although their superficial status is not low, they are actually idle. However, after the new emperor ascended the throne, everyone has changed from a dragon minister, from a idle position to a real position, and it is no problem to get promoted and make money.
King Fu took the gold treasure of the governor from Empress Zhang, who was dressed in filial piety. After the ceremony, King Fu read the imperial edict of the governor with tears in his eyes: "The second ancestor of our country opened the sky and announced the great things. Zhang Xu, the priests, accumulated deep benevolence. The emperor of Daxing practiced frugality and inspiration, was worried and diligent for seven years, trying to suppress the enemy and the people; the great sky was not silenced, and the enemy was rampant every day, so he dared to shock the palace, and Long Yusheng: The heroic spirit told the heaven, and the resentment was thriving. Alas! How painful!..."
But halfway through the edict, Ma Shiying and Shi Kefa had changed color.
