The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

The emperor's wedding was a matter of state.

On April 27, the first year of Tianyun, the whole country celebrated.

Originally, Zhu Heyi still planned to simplify the wedding ceremony, but this time, officials from the Six Ministries had objections, Wang Chen had objections, and even the commander of the Imperial Guard Su Qiyi had objections. (Six parts will be explained later)

That is to say, except for the system soldiers who came from the military camp, everyone else had opinions on Emperor Zhu Da's idea of ​​simplifying the wedding process.

Their reason is also very simple,

Nanjing is not Xinjing, and today's Ming Dynasty is not the original Ming Dynasty. Since we have the ability, all the people of Ming Dynasty should celebrate this grand occasion together.

Moreover, Emperor Taizu also had regulations that stipulated that all emperors who had married a wife before ascending the throne would not hold a makeup wedding after ascending the throne, but only a ceremony to enthrone the queen.If you are not married when you ascend the throne, you need to hold a "big wedding" and appoint a queen and concubines.

Therefore, an emperor's wedding is rare in a hundred years. Even the emperor himself may not have the opportunity to catch up with such a glorious and honorable event. Now that he has finally encountered it, how can it be simplified?

In the end, Zhu Heyi was convinced, but his wedding celebration was still a little different.

Generally speaking, when the emperor gets married, he only marries the queen, and the concubines will be married at a staggered time.

But Zhu Heyi thought it was too troublesome, so he wanted to marry four of them at once!

If it were placed in the previous dynasties, if the emperor made such a request, he would definitely be sprayed to pieces by the civil and military officials of the court.

But now, no one criticizes Emperor Zhu.

Many officials even wished that the emperor would marry more.

What worries these officials who have been led astray by Wang Chen the most is that the emperor has no heirs yet. Now let alone four, the emperor will marry ten, no problem!

The only one who felt pain in his head was the newly established Ministry of Rites.

Not that they said they wanted to object.

The reason why their heads hurt was entirely because there was no precedent for marrying four people at once. So how should they go about the wedding process?

Don't look at the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette who were very excited about the emperor's wedding. They were the ones who made the most noise and argued that the process could not be simplified.

But in fact, even if the process is not simplified, these officials of the Ministry of Rites still need to consult classics and materials and cross the river by feeling for the stones.

Now that the emperor wants to marry four at once, there is no precedent.

Here I have to mention the current court structure of the Ming Dynasty.

Different from the Caotai team in Luzon, after Zhu Heyi moved the capital to Nanjing, he reorganized the Six Ministries at the suggestion of Wang Chen. Except for the Ministry of War, the other officials in the Six Ministries were selected from the imperial examinations in Fujian and other places.

Of course, it is impossible for these officials who have just passed the exam to climb to such a high position as Minister of the Secretariat in one fell swoop.

At present, the highest official position of officials in various ministries, except the Ministry of War, is acting chief, which is the sixth rank official position.

Because of the addition of a code, the official position of the sixth rank became from the sixth rank. This is equivalent to an inspection period. If you pass the inspection, you will be promoted to full rank. If you fail the inspection, you will be lowered one level.

Since all the official positions further up are vacant, even though these acting chiefs only hold sixth-grade official positions, they actually have great power and have a high degree of autonomy in the departments they are responsible for.

With greater power, these officials have become more cautious.

There is no other reason. All the official positions above are vacant. Everyone is still thinking about taking a step further. At this time, they dare not make mistakes and let others take the advantage.

……

After the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette racked their brains, the wedding process finally reached the stage of welcoming the bride.

Naturally, Zhu Heyi did not need to go there in person to welcome the bride. This work was completely left to the civil and military officials.

The officials were divided into four teams and went to the four homes to welcome the bride.

Among them, the wedding celebration teams of North Korea, Ryukyu and Satsuma were also arranged by Zhu Heyi to join the wedding team.

This operation almost made the King of Korea and the King of Ryukyu cry with excitement!

Ming Dynasty did not treat them as outsiders!

Only the Lord of the Satsuma Domain seemed quite calm...

As for other vassal states?They are not qualified yet.

It is worth mentioning that the visiting countries this time include Guangnan, Nanzhang, Siam, Cambodia, Cambodia, as well as the European upstarts, Britain, France, the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal.

Except for the blind and unfilial son Annan, and Sulu and Bo Ni who had become part of the Ming Dynasty, all the other vassal states of the Ming Dynasty came.

However, although these four South Asian countries are nominally vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, their actual relationship with the Ming Dynasty is not that close.

After hearing about the resurrection of the Ming Dynasty, these countries came to congratulate them with gifts. Most of them just wanted to restart the tribute trade and profit from it.

After all, when the Ming Dynasty was still there, they made a lot of money from the tribute trade.

This is also the reason why these countries could only watch the ceremony but were not included in the welcoming procession.

……

In order not to let Xue Wen lose face, Wang Chen recently adopted Xue Wen as his adopted daughter and bought a house on Yudao Street outside the imperial city. This can be regarded as Xue Wen's natal family.

Zhu Heyi had nothing to say about this. The relationship between Wang Chen and him was more like that of elders and juniors rather than monarchs and ministers. Besides, apart from the system soldiers, the most sincere person to him in the entire Ming Dynasty was Wang Chen...

The wedding team finally arrived in front of the mansion with drums and drums. At this moment, Wang Chen, as the elder Xue Wen, had led a group of servants to kneel in front of the door.

The officials of the Ministry of Etiquette who welcomed the bride did not delay, and immediately took out the imperial edict and announced it loudly. Then they led a group of royal guards and sedan bearers to carry the queen's ceremony carriage and Long Ting into the mansion. Then they knelt down in phoenix crowns and harems with snow patterns to receive the golden book. , Jinbao...

The wedding team was already huge when they arrived, and even more impressive when they returned.

The ceremonial guard cleared the way, Shiliu carried the phoenix chariot, and amid the sound of drums and music all the way, countless people looked up on both sides of the street with their cheeks flushed.

Nanjing has just returned to the Ming Dynasty and ushered in this unprecedented grand occasion. How can these ordinary people not be excited?

At the request of Emperor Zhu Da, the four brides were carried into the palace from Chengtian Gate.

According to the ancestral system, only the queen can be carried into the palace through Chengtian Gate, and the other concubines can only go through Xuanwu Gate. You must know that even Cixi in the previous life could not be carried into the palace from Daqing Gate (Daqing Gate is equivalent to Chengtian Gate)

Therefore, Emperor Zhu Da's request was simply more excessive than marrying four people at the same time. If this had been done in the past, Yan Guan might have crashed into the dragon pillar of the hall and died.

However, the current civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty are either infinitely loyal to Emperor Zhu Da, or they are Emperor Zhu Da's sweethearts.

Even if they have opinions on matters that are decided by the emperor, they will still act in accordance with the emperor's instructions.

Don’t they all go through Chengtianmen?It's not like canonizing four queens, so it's not a big problem.

I came back too late, writing now, 2:25...Sorry!Feel sorry!

Let’s just write about the emperor’s wedding. It already feels like a running account and cannot be detailed any more.
