First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Then the two of them turned their gazes to their daughter-in-law's stomach, Chang Luohua blushed. He also liked the little prince and princess, but she really couldn't do it herself.

At this time, Zhu Biao, who was far away in Fengyang, was drowsy and was helped into the house to sleep. How could he not wish to return to Beijing for the New Year?

Chang Luohua also went back to the East Palace afterward. She was the only master in Nuo Da's palace. Yunjin and Nuanyu waited on her to freshen up, and the maid brought by Chang Luohua herself waited outside.

Dutiful girls are always welcome. It has been so long that Yunjin Nuanyu is still innocent. It is conceivable that they are not the kind of flirtatious people, and Chang Luohua also intends to get closer to them.

After all, everyone can see Zhu Biao's nostalgia. The more people come to the East Palace in the future, the more status these old people who have served Zhu Biao since childhood will have. Chang Luohua doesn't mind supporting him.

The big and small Shuang'er put away the Ruyi and Fengchai given by the emperor, but I don't know how many Yu Ruyi in the East Palace. Nuanyu scattered Chang Luohua's long hair and put the ornaments aside. The concubine seems to like her more and more, which makes Nuan Yu's little life more and more smooth.

Yunjin still has that calm and breezy look, exuding a soft aura, which makes people feel good after seeing it. Sometimes Chang Luohua can't help but think in his heart that Yunjin will do better when he is a princess. .

After Chang Luohua finished washing, Yunjin carefully put Tang Pozi inside. The princess was cold, so it was better to be warmer. Nuanyu waited on Chang Luohua to lie down.

Chang Luohua suddenly reached out and grabbed her little hand, Nuan Yu's big eyes instantly became round, and she looked at the princess cutely, wondering if the princess knew about the fact that she ate the fruit shop at noon?

Yun Jin raised her eyebrows, her expression remained unchanged and she went on to do her own thing. Chang Luohua looked at Nuan Yu who seemed to be about to explode and said with a smile: It's too cold at night, how about Nuan Yu warming my bed? Listen to Your Highness It's warm to sleep with you in your arms.

Nuan Yu stared blankly at the Crown Princess, Chang Luohua looks like the Lan family and is very beautiful, but also inherits some of Chang Yuchun's characteristics, full of heroic spirit, which Zhu Biao liked at the beginning.

After a while, Nuanyu's cheeks flushed red, she said something creakingly, and then she covered her face and ran out. Chang Luohua buried her chin in the bed contentedly and said, No wonder Your Highness likes Nuanyu so much, and deliberately It's really cute to arrange her in the Wenhua Palace.

Yun Jin smiled lightly and sat down on the side of the bed and tucked the quilt for her: The maidservant is guarding the crown princess, and I will replace you with Mrs. Tang later.

Chang Luohua refused with a smile: Go down and rest, there are many things in the palace tomorrow, and you have to take care of them all.

Yun Jin didn't say any more, she is the head of the palace ladies, and tomorrow is New Year's Day, so she is naturally very busy, if she doesn't sleep tonight, she might not be able to survive tomorrow, so she went out and asked the nanny of the crown princess to come in and take care of her .

At five o'clock on New Year's Day, the maids will get up early, burn incense and firecrackers, drink pepper wine, and eat dumplings. At the same time, silver money will be secretly wrapped in the dumplings, the one who gets it will be lucky for a year.

At dawn, a musician from Jiaofang Temple beats the big drum on the side of Fengxian Gate. First, he hits the drum frame once, and then beats the heart of the drum continuously with his double paddles. The rhythm changes from slow to fast and then fast. Slow down, the drum sound changed from weak to strong, and then from strong to weak, and then another Jiaofang Temple musician slammed the big bell next to Fengxian Gate to end.

With the sound of drums, hundreds of officials in court uniforms began to line up outside the Meridian Gate, and walked towards Fengtian Hall one after another. At this time, the deacons came to Huagai Hall, where Zhu Yuanzhang had already put on the dragon uniform and dragon crown. Sitting upright on the throne of the main hall. The deacon made five kowtows to the emperor, and after the kowtow, the emperor was invited to come to Fengtian Hall.

The emperor drove off, and the Jiaofangsi Band began to play Zhonghe Music. Officials of Shangbaosi walked in front of the emperor holding the emperor's imperial seal in their hands, led by the driver.

After the emperor came to Fengtian Hall, the bright fan that had been displayed here was opened, and the bead curtain was also rolled up. The officials of Shangbaosi placed the imperial seal on the treasure case that had been set up in advance to the east of the throne. At this point, the band of Jiaofangsi stopped playing Zhonghele.

Nezan officials shouted: Xuan Biao Mu!. At this time, the declaration official should kneel and prostrate on the ground to wait for the declaration. The watch exhibitor took the watch, and the watch announcer went outside the bead curtain in front of the emperor's throne, and read the Biaomu aloud, and all the officials knelt to listen to the Biaomu.

After a set of cumbersome ceremonies, the announcement was over, and the officials inside and outside the hall collectively bowed down and shouted long live.

Afterwards, the preface officials moved the read out list to the east side of the main hall, and the praise officials shouted: All officials kneel! In the middle, a speech to the emperor: A certain official and minister, hereby meet Zhengdan, Sanyang Kaitai, and all things salty and new. Respectful to His Majesty the Emperor, I will be born in Gannahu, and I will worship the sky forever.

After saying these words, the officials stood up. At this time, the band of the Jiaofang Division played Shao music again, and all the officials kowtowed four more times to the emperor, and then stood up.

The music stopped, and the censor knelt in front of the emperor to ask the emperor for his will. Then the censor went out from the east gate of the main hall, came to Danbi, stood facing east, and shouted: The emperor has a decree!

The praise officer shouted: Kneel! All the officials knelt down again, and the passer-by officer read the emperor's will aloud: The celebration of the honor is equal to that of Qing.

The praise officer shouted: Shanhu! Baiguan knelt down and raised his hands above his head and shouted Long live! The praise officer shouted again: Shanhu! The hundred officials shouted Long live again! The praise officer shouted again: Hall again! The hundred officials shouted Long live again! . When Baiguanshan shouted long live, all the people present must echo in unison. That momentum can be described as earth-shattering!

Afterwards, after a series of tedious ceremonies, the emperor could get up and return to the Huagai Palace, and all the officials could leave accordingly. This set of rituals will take more than an hour to toss.

Then there was a banquet, attended by civil and military officials and foreign envoys, which demonstrated the majesty of the emperor and the status of the Heavenly Kingdom of the Ming Dynasty. They all congratulated and presented gifts to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. Officials, including rewarding gifts and holding banquets.

According to the etiquette system, there will be nine times of drinking in the banquet, and there will be music and dancing during the banquet. For example, when drinking the first wine, you have to play The Song of Flame Essence for Good Luck and The Song of Shang Wanshou, and at the same time there is also a dance to calm the world. Whether it is drinking or holding chopsticks, the emperor must start.

Even though Zhu Yuanzhang had been dizzy for a long time, he still had to complete this complete set of etiquette. The emperor's new year was not easy or pleasant. There were too many red tape and etiquette, and too many ritual procedures.

However, since ancient times, the etiquette and music have not been inferior to the common people. In order to reflect the spirit of respecting the heaven and the ancestors, and also to reflect the majesty of the royal family, these are inevitable.

Zhu Biao, who was far away in Fengyang, escaped a catastrophe. After all, as the prince of the Eastern Palace, he was supposed to follow the emperor through all the ceremonies, and there were many troublesome ceremonies that belonged to him.
