3. The Great Court

The next day, the morning court was held in Daming Palace.

With a far away "Your Majesty Arrives", Zheng Wen, surrounded by a group of warriors and eunuchs, entered the main hall of the Daming Palace.

A group of civil and military ministers dressed in court uniforms and dressed in plain clothes, the royal family members sorted out their clothes and stood in different classes, generally following the civil and military officials, but it was not very obvious, leaving a long gap in the middle.

Zheng Wen was wearing a crown robe and a plain robe. He hung a sword on his waist. He walked along the imperial steps step by step toward the dragon throne. After a while, he sat on the dragon throne.

As soon as he sat down, Huang An whispered loudly: "The ministers knelt down and bowed."

This is a kind of etiquette of great action. Whenever the new emperor ascends the throne, at the beginning, mid-year, and at the end of the year, all ministers will hold three bows and nine bows. One is to recognize the new emperor, and the other is to be etiquette of the monarch and ministers.

The ministers knelt on the ground together, saluted, and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor."

After the ceremony, Huang An shouted again, "All ministers are peaceful."

Zheng Wen sat on the imperial chair and looked at the people below, and had a kind of pride that was the only one in the world. No wonder how many people wanted to be this emperor, and they did not hesitate to fight and ruin their country... It was really great to be an emperor. Zheng Wen also had this idea at this moment, even if he had no power or power.

Huang An shouted again, "If you have something to do, report it early, and if you have nothing to do, you will leave the court."

As soon as he finished speaking, Prime Minister Liu Jian walked out of the queue and said, "Your Majesty, the late emperor has passed away. Please tell me about his affairs after his death."

After saying that, Liu Jian and the ministers all looked at Zheng Wen on the imperial chair. This was the first time the new emperor spoke, and everyone hoped to find something from it.

When Zheng Wen heard this, he found that all the ministers were looking at him. He immediately felt a wave of pressure coming to his face, and secretly cheered himself up, "Don't panic, don't panic, don't reveal any flaws."

Then he calmed down his agitation, with a expressionless face and a calm tone, saying: "The father unfortunately died. However, he had made great contributions in his destiny for ten or six years. He ordered the scholars and civilians of the world to mourn for three days, dress in plain clothes for three months, and the princes for three years. On the day of them, do not be extravagant or dance. I will replace him with twenty-seven days and order all the women in the capital to enter the palace to serve filial piety. Those who violate the violation will be severely punished."

He paused for a moment and said, "He ordered Prime Minister Liu Jian, the governor of Jingying Qin Fei, the eldest prince Zheng Tong, the second prince Zheng Zhuang, the six ministers, and the Privy Councilor to be the ministers of mourning and deal with the affairs behind his father."

"I have always thought about my filial piety and ordered the Ministry of Rites to give the title of honor and posthumous title of the father and emperor, and wrote it on books and silk to express my merits in the world."

"The Ministry of Works ordered the Ministry of Works to speed up the construction of the imperial tomb and be buried in three days."

"Do you have any questions?"

This is the general etiquette of the emperor after death. This prince, who has not been favored by the emperor since childhood and has not been valued by the ministers, has made everyone present admire him for his performance.

For a moment, relatively speechless.

Zheng Wen gave Huang An a wink, and Huang An immediately understood it.

Then he spoke, "Listen quietly."

The little eunuch behind Huang An took over an imperial edict.

He spoke, "Qin Fei received the order."

Qin Fei hurriedly stepped out of the line and knelt on the ground.

"The emperor's edict said: Qin Fei, the governor of the Jingying camp, was ordered by the late emperor to take charge of the Jingying camp. He was upset and sleeping at night to protect me and ascend the throne. He made great contributions to me and appointed Qin Fei as Duke of Zhao, and had 10,000 stones of salary. I'm here! Duke of Zhao, please accept the order!"

Qin Fei knelt on the ground and said excitedly: "Long live my emperor, thank your Majesty for your kindness."

A military general and a civilian had no military achievements. He could only win the right thigh and gain the title of Duke. He had already reached the top in one step. From then on, Qin Fei became a nobleman and could be considered a separation with the country. That's why Qin Fei was so excited.

Zheng Wen looked at Qin Fei carefully and looked at his every move. From the moment, this person is still loyal to the emperor. As for the future, I will look at it again.

Huang An took out another imperial edict and said, "The emperor's edict said: Prime Minister Liu Jian, who was ordered by the late emperor, was appointed as the prime minister. For ten and three years, he worked diligently and worked hard and made great contributions to protect me and ascend the throne. He made great contributions to me. He appointed Liu Jian as Duke of Cao and gave him 10,000 stones of salary. I admire this! Duke of Cao, please accept the imperial edict!"

Liu Jian knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live my emperor, thank Your Majesty for your kindness." When he stood up, he looked happy.

However, politicians are politicians after all, and Zheng Wen, as a little otaku, still can't see through Liu Jian. Zheng Wen only looked at it for a moment and stopped looking at it.

At this time, Huang An took out another imperial edict and said, "Everyone, listen."

Wait for all the ministers to kneel down.

"The emperor's edict said: The former queen, Wang, is the empress of the late emperor, and her mother is in the world. She should be the queen mother and be given to Changle Palace. I respect this!"

Below, he shouted "Long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long.

The Daqian Palace has three major palace groups, namely the Daming Palace, Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace. The Daming Palace is the office and residence of emperors of all dynasties. The first half of the office and the second half of the accommodation is the most expanded. The Changle Palace Group is the residence of the emperor's mother, the empress dowager and the concubines of the late emperor, while the Changle Palace is the symbol of the empress dowager; the Weiyang Palace Group is the residence of the empress dowager and the concubines of the current emperor, and the Weiyang Palace is the symbol of the empress dowager.

Zheng Wen announced the news during the grand court meeting, firstly, to win over and appease the first empress Wang, and tell her that you will be the queen mother and the most noble woman in Daqian in the future. After all, the queen may be deposed for this or that reason, but the empress cannot be able to do so. As long as you are peaceful and do not commit suicide, you and the family behind you can gain wealth and glory. As long as you live, you should be the best time to say that you will be rich and glory. As long as you are not too out of line, the current emperor generally doesn't care much; secondly, to win over the Wang family in Taiyuan, this is telling the Wang family that you and I are on the same boat, come and help me!

Sure enough, as soon as the words were finished, many court officials who stood up looked happy.
