Your Majesty Cheng Huan

On this day, it was raining heavily in the capital, and the bean-sized raindrops crackled on the smooth bluestone slabs, steps, and white jade railings, splashing up bursts of rain and mist, and the entire Daxia Palace seemed to be shrouded in smoke.

Xiao He came back from studying in Taixue and came to Qingxin Hall where his father usually handles government affairs.He listened to the teacher in the Taixue lecture today, and there was something he didn't understand, so he had to ask his father.Maybe it was raining too loudly today, he called his father several times, but his father didn't hear him.

"Father, father!"

"He'er is here?" Emperor Jing put down the battle report he had just delivered, and called Xiao He over.He'er carried the too long prince's robe and walked over to his father, threw himself into his arms, and showed his father the book in his hand.

"Father, what does this sentence—" he read in a childish voice, "'the heaven and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is flooded, the sun and the moon are full, and the sun and the moon are in full bloom', what does it mean?"

"Hmm..." Emperor Jing pondered for a while, then said, "Did you tell me, sir, what are you talking about?"

He'er blinked his big eyes twice, thought for a while, and then said: "Teacher Shangguan said that he will memorize this article when he goes back. He will test us tomorrow."

Emperor Jing was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and continued, "What do He'er think these four sentences mean?"

He'er felt that the rain outside was too loud, so he listened carefully. The noise outside the hall and the cleanliness inside were like two worlds.

"He'er doesn't know." He thought, anyway, my husband once said, if you know it, say you know it, and if you don't know it, say you don't know it, it can't be wrong.

Emperor Jing pinched his nose, and said: "You are still honest and upright. These four sentences are about opening up the world and turning the stars. 'universe'--"

"The sky is 'Xuan', and the earth is 'Yellow'," He'er interrupted his father, asking, "Then why do we respect Xuan and not Huang? Is it because the sky is not as good as the earth?"

Emperor Jing looked down at his blue-black black dragon robe, and said with a smile: "The emperor is the son of heaven, so he naturally respects the sky. But the way of heaven is above, and the earth contains all things. The heaven and the earth together nurture the spirit of the world. There is no such thing as superiority or inferiority." At this point, Emperor Jing paused and asked He'er, "Does He'er like this kind of black clothes?"

Emperor Jing was waiting to hear what He'er would say, but he immediately shook his head and said, "I don't like it. Wearing his clothes, wearing his crown, father's crown is not good at all."

Xiao Dezi at the side was terrified when he heard it, but Emperor Jing smiled easily, and asked him to bring his emperor's crown, put it in front of He'er, and asked, "Tell me, why is this not good?"

He'er fiddled with the 24 handles hanging from the front and back of the crown, and there was a crisp and pleasant sound when the pearls and jade collided.He put the crown on his head, but it covered half of his head. Emperor Jing help him take off the crown helplessly. Xiao Dezi immediately reached out to catch it, holding the imperial crown without daring to move. .

He'er laughed and said, "Wearing this crown, the bead curtain is always dangling in front of my eyes." He asked with concern, "Don't father feel tired?"

Emperor Jing didn't answer, but asked him: "He'er, do you know the emperor's crown, why are there so many beaded curtains?"

He'er shook his head honestly, and Emperor Jing went on to say: "These 24 periods are a symbol of the emperor's status. In the history of Central Continent, there was an era when the princes were separated and wars were frequent. At that time, the ritual system collapsed and the rules were often chaotic. The vassals who can wear the crown of 24 crowns often act arbitrarily, and they also wear 24 crowns, which offends the authority of the emperor. Today’s Great Xia has no princes, but the [-] crowns of the emperor have continued.”

He'er nodded as he listened, expressing that he knew a little bit, as the husband once said.

Emperor Jing continued: "But this is just one of them. The second is to 'observe his rites' when wearing his clothes and crowns. As an emperor, once he wears such a crown, he must sit upright and have a solemn color, otherwise the pearls The curtains will shake wildly, which will damage the majesty of the emperor. People like you—" He pretended to be angry, and said, "you can't wear this crown."

After hearing this, Xiao He immediately jumped out of his father's arms, stood aside with a book in his hands, and secretly raised his eyelids to see his father's expression.

Emperor Jing thought it was funny, but his face was still serious.He said: "Well, He'er is already three years old. From now on, he can't be hugged every now and then. Do you know?"

Xiao He said aggrievedly: "Ke He'er still wants to hug Mr., but Mr. has left." He raised his head and asked, "Father, will Mr. come back?"

Emperor Jing looked at He'er's big eyes full of expectation, nodded, and said, "Yes, sir...will definitely come back."
