Adviser should be self-improvement

Chapter 57 [Insect Catch]

According to ancestral rituals, ten days before a man's crown, he needs to find a fortune teller to divination the auspicious day, and then tell his relatives and friends about the auspicious day. The officiant guest is selected by the divination method, and the person who praises the crown assists the crowning ceremony to show solemnity.

After the death of Emperor Hengwu, Emperor Qianning, the eldest brother, was supposed to be the host of the crown ceremony, crowning Qin Ce, but King Xiangyang has now used the name of the rebel army to refer to Ma Jingdu. Emperor Qianning must be scratching his head and thinking of countermeasures. The matter of Qin Ce's coronation is also due to the legitimate blessing of King Xiangyang, so Qin Ce does not need to worry about how to support the capital.

The location of the crowning ceremony is set at the Ancestral Temple in Qingzhou, and the time is set at the Great Heat.

Even after living a lifetime, Chu Huaiqing has always maintained an attitude of understanding but disagreeing with the customs of the ancients who must pay attention to the right time and place, good days and auspicious days, and be strict to the point of time. But when this matter falls on Qin Ce, he has always been indifferent However, the scholar seemed more nervous than anyone else. During these ten days, he hardly touched the ground. It was a waste of effort just to invite well-known fortune-tellers from other states and counties.

In the previous life, the rebel army did not flee to Xiangyang, and the King of Xiangyang had no excuse to send troops to Kyoto, so Qin Ce was recalled by Emperor Qianning to complete the crowning ceremony, and asked Emperor Qianning for pardon from the Duke of Chu on the grounds of his birthday .

Thinking about it this way, it seems that many things are different from the previous life. The advantages of being a reborn person are gradually fading. Chu Huaiqing is not very clear about what kind of future will evolve in the future.

The two were kneeling and sitting facing each other, and there was already a lively sound outside the house. Looking at Chu Huaiqing who was distracted, Qin Ce called out, "Sir, what's wrong?"

Chu Huaiqing regained consciousness, shook her head and smiled: "I'm just happy that His Highness is about to become an adult, but those links are missing..."

Seeing Chu Huaiqing's busy schedule for him in the past few days, Qin Ce finally found a chance to put his hand on the back of Chu Huaiqing's hand, and said in a harmonious voice, "Ce is now twenty years old. Could it be that you will lose the reality of adulthood just because you haven't performed the coronation ceremony? It's just that there are a few links missing, sir, don't be nervous."

The bewilderment of the road ahead seemed to dissipate in Qin Ce's deep and deep eyes like the clouds of the past. Chu Huaiqing hummed lightly and withdrew his hand as if naturally.

Qin Ce smiled at Chu Huaiqing, with imperceptible helplessness and relaxation in his smile.

Because Chu Huaiqing was both the host and the guest of honor, Qin Ce proposed to omit the matter of welcoming the guests, because the circumstances did not allow it, and even the omission would include seeing the mother and brother of the champion.

As soon as this decision came out, some people should raise objections, because these are indispensable links in the entire crown ceremony, but Chu Huaiqing believes that since the main purpose of welcoming guests is to show respect for oneself, then this link can be optional.

The Xie family is not a nobleman, and Xie Fu has never performed the crown ceremony, so how could he pay attention to these empty rituals.The generals were careless, and they all agreed that His Highness and Dr. Chu had the final say.Although Zhao Shijie is a counselor, he was born in poverty, and he didn't learn etiquette and didn't care much. Because there were not enough guests for the banquet, Chu Huaiqing arrested him to make up the number.

As a result, the controversy that should have been there has been left alone.

Not long after, the waiter brought the crown clothes, followed by those who praised the crown, and bowed to Qin Ce, indicating that the auspicious time had come.

Qin Ce nodded, and sat upright. The person who praised the crown approached, holding a comb in his hand, combing Qin Ce's hair, pulling his temples, adding hairpins, and then wrapping his hair around the temples with a mat.

The person who praised the crown was skillful, and completed this step in a few strokes. Looking at the expressions of Qin Ce and the person who praised the crown, they looked more solemn. No one noticed that Qin Ce was looking at Chu Huaiqing's thin and white hands. , imagining how they pull their hair seriously for themselves.

Chu Huaiqing took over the cloth crown from Yousi, and the congratulations were all prepared and recorded in advance, and it is not difficult to repeat them now, but after slowly speaking to Qin Ce, Chu Huaiqing added another sentence sincerely: "May Your Highness, your wish will come true, and you will be healthy and happy."

The corner of Qin Ce's mouth raised slightly, and he said, "May this be with Mr. Yu."

"Crowning" has three points in total, and the steps are the same, but there are more subtle details on the crown clothes.Putting the black cloth crown in his hand on for Qin Ce, Qin Ce got up, went to the cabinet, changed into Xuanduan clothes, tied his knee covers, and stood facing south after leaving the room. The initial addition was completed.

The words of congratulations were compiled by sages, and the rules were general, which lost the real feeling of blessing. Therefore, whenever Chu Huaiqing crowned Qin Ce, he would secretly add a blessing that he had been thinking about in the past, but he never thought that Qin Ce had already read it. Congratulations, so three times to end the ceremony, Qin Ce's eyes on Chu Huaiqing were as gentle as water.

Chu Huaiqing, who didn't know why, smiled back, and the obsidian-like pupils also glowed softly.

After the coronation is over, it will be the crown of guests and wine. Chu Huaiqing invites praisers, sets up a banquet in an orderly manner, and invites all the guests to sit down.

Xie Fu's side had a lot of good wine, Cao Yuan's side prepared more food, Zhao Shijie and Zeng Ping sat in a slightly off corner, next to Li Yuexiong and his son, so as not to embarrass the two of them, Chu Huaiqing also invited great scholars from Qingzhou , so meticulous that everyone has thought about it, and the seating is decent—these details are enough to reflect Chu Huaiqing's attention.

The tripod bell rang, and Qin Ce took his seat under the eyes of everyone.

The man was dressed in black clothes, with a handsome appearance, handsome, and calm in his steps. He looked like a prince and aristocrat, majestic and magnificent. Chu Huaiqing pondered over his words over and over again.

It was as if the whole world had been filtered into the background, leaving only the handsome man walking slowly.

Due to the omission of the link of the crowned person seeing his mother, the entire crowning ceremony was basically completed after the sacrifice. Qin Ce was thinking about Chu Huaiqing's promise to call him intimately. He only said that there are many people now, and Chu Huaiqing should be there. After the crowning ceremony, he said that he wanted to finish it quickly, but Chu Huaiqing suddenly stopped him.

"I have traveled all over the world since I was young, and I have met a big family." This time, Mr. Qin Ce attended the meeting, and Chu Huaiqing changed his name to 'I', "The members of this family are also the top twenty However, they take an extra step, that is, to take the Biaozi for the crowned person to show his virtue, and when meeting people who are close and acquainted, they all use the Biaozi to show their intimacy."

Stared at by the confused eyes of countless people, Chu Huaiqing looked at Qin Ce, calmly: "The one who drives people is the policy, and the policy has the meaning of 'Ling'. The ancient characters have thousands of meanings, but the beauty of 'virtue' Don't put your beak on others, I use the rite of a teacher to choose the word Lingde for His Highness, and hope that His Highness will go to the road of 'Ling' to show the respect of 'De'."

The fact that Chu Huaiqing was Mr. Qin Ce had been reported ten days before the preparation for the crowning ceremony. At the same time, the news that Chu Huaiqing was not only a doctor who rejuvenated and helped the weak, but also a A secretive and knowledgeable literati counselor, even Qin Ce's experience of studying and apprenticeship, has been recited countless versions of string songs.

The ancients respected the "teacher" very much, so that the guests would not preconceive that Chu Huaiqing named the prince as an act of transgression, and then thought that the "table word" was only for expressing virtue and explaining blessings. It is more like a nickname or baby name as an intimate name, and if it does not take advantage of the name, he frowned slightly and ignored the matter.

Only Xie Fu who heard the words suddenly raised his eyes, and looked away as if nothing had happened, and continued to caress the edge of the wine jar with his palms, waiting for the banquet to start and have a good drink.

Qin Ce's mood is very complicated at the moment.

In terms of intimacy, the word does have the meaning of intimacy, not to mention it was taken by the husband himself, but in terms of meeting my expectations, I always feel that there is something wrong.

Finally, Qin Ce sighed in his heart, and replied politely: "Mr. Xie for giving me the name."

Anyway, I still like it very much, who let his husband take it for him.

When the coronation ceremony ended, it was already noon, and except for Chu Huaiqing's slightly abrupt inscription for Qin Ce, there were no other accidents.

After seeing off the guests, Qin Ce looked at Zhao Shijie and Zhao Shijie, who had been left hanging by them for a long time. Zhao Shijie obviously couldn't sit still, and beckoned Zeng Ping to slip away quickly. Qin Ce stepped forward and stopped them: "Don't leave in a hurry! , It was a guest banquet just now, and then it will be our private banquet."

Zhao Shijie didn't expect it, but participating in a guest banquet already made them feel like they were sitting on pins and needles, let alone a private banquet, with some caution, he wanted to refuse: "But we still have something to do..."

"is it?"

Zhao Shijie froze, and held back his words in a calm manner, and could only tell the truth: "It's not an important matter, but it's not good for people like us to participate in His Highness's private banquet..."

Zeng Ping didn't speak at the side, obviously agreeing.

I remembered that Chu Huaiqing once said that although Zhao Shijie was talented, he was prone to timidity. Because he had been enslaved for many years, he had an indescribable inferiority complex.Zeng Ping is in good health, he fights a lot with others, he has already become ruthless, handing it over to Li Yuexiong for training|teaching, it is inevitable that things will happen.

Qin Ce was not in a hurry to break the guards of the two people, but said in a tone of discussion among peers: "Nowadays there are frequent disasters, and the food you eat is extremely precious, so you have to pay the corresponding rewards for me before thinking about it." Take a break."

Zhao Shijie panicked and said: "We didn't—" sneak away.

"Have you ever done me a favor?"

There was an instant silence.

"I'll tell you what to do after the banquet." Qin Ce said calmly.

"Then we are now?"

"Sit here, wait until the banquet starts, and wait until the banquet ends."

Zhao Shijie and Zeng Ping: "..."

"I drink so much now, I won't be able to eat for a while." Snatching the wine jar from Xie Fu's hand, Chu Huaiqing stared at the drunk in front of him, "Don't forget the three chapters of our agreement."

Xie Fu didn't care, he licked the wine from the corner of his mouth, and looked at him lazily: "You were surrounded by His Highness when you were young, how could you have the opportunity to meet some big family?"

Chu Huaiqing replied naturally: "After all, I didn't come up with it."

Xie Fu shrugged his shoulders and didn't dwell on this issue: "Aren't you afraid that those great Confucian scholars will come back to it afterward?"

"If they suspect disobedience, they will only suspect me." Chu Huaiqing, who was named Fei, smiled helplessly, "It's just that I can't think of any words that match His Highness."

"There are always many words to show virtue." Xie Fu said calmly, "But maybe this word is the most suitable for Your Highness." Then he suddenly approached, frowned and said, "Otherwise, Huaiqing will also do it for me. Get one?"

"How can this be?" Chu Huaiqing didn't cry or laugh, "I'm not your elder. Only elders can say this."

"The elders in my family are all the same." Xie Fu raised his head and looked at the vast sky, "Give me this name casually, hoping that I can become a tool of the wealthy family, and never treat me as a human being for a moment. "

Perhaps it was even more distressing for the person who always smiled heartlessly to suddenly become slumped, Chu Huaiqing couldn't help but said: "Then...why do you change your name to something you like?"

"Rename?" Xie Fu murmured softly, then sat up suddenly, "Okay, just change your name!"

Before Chu Huaiqing could react, Xie Fu looked at him eagerly again: "Good Huaiqing, help me get one."

I don't know why I went around asking for my own help to pick it up. I didn't have to think about it, and a name appeared.

"Thank you for the poor wine."

The author has something to say: I know that Lingde’s name is not good ( ̄ω ̄;) It’s just to promote feelings, it’s not really used in many places, just ignore it, um
