Chapter 73 Crown Prince Crown Ceremony

The crown ceremony is also called crowning, which is a ceremony held in ancient times to announce the adulthood of a man.In ancient times, a man could hold a crown ceremony when he was 20 years old, so as to announce to the world that the man had matured both in thought and body, and could formally participate in clan or even external activities.

Of course, although the ancient system stipulates that men cannot be crowned until they are 20 years old, there have been special cases. The emperor and princes and kings are not subject to this restriction. Generally, they can be crowned after 12 years old.The status of the crown prince is even lower than that of the emperor and princes, but in order to distinguish him from the common people and to reflect the wisdom and wisdom of the crown prince, Emperor Jing insisted on crowning Liu Che earlier.Of course, Han Yan privately believed that one of the reasons for the Crown Prince to hold the coronation ceremony earlier was that Emperor Jing felt that his health was getting worse, otherwise Liu Che would not have become emperor at the age of 17. The eldest princess who is getting better and more restless.

Therefore, with the joint efforts of Emperor Jing and the eldest princess, not long after the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, Emperor Jing held a grand crown prince crowning ceremony for Prince Liu Che.

On the day of the coronation ceremony, Liu Che got up before Yinshi, retreated the colorful clothes he usually wears, and changed into a set of white clothes.Han Yan originally thought that she would be able to wear the Prince's suit that day, but she was surprised when she saw this suit.As a result, I asked privately. It turns out that before the crown ceremony, you can’t wear any symbolic colors and patterns, so fortunately, you can wear white clothes to participate in the ceremony, which is used to express that you have abandoned the past and become an adult (it looks like a monk) .The hair can only be simply combed into a bun, and no hosta is inserted.In this way, the whole set of clothes can be worn for about an hour, and the atmosphere is joyful and solemn. When Han Yan helped Liu Che smooth out the subtle wrinkles on his body, he could still clearly feel Liu Che's chest rising and falling.Can't help but hook the corner of his mouth slightly.

"What are you laughing at?" Perhaps to distract himself and make himself less nervous, Liu Che spoke the first words since he woke up.

"Happy for Your Majesty, Your Majesty has finally grown up!" Han Yan smiled sideways.

Hearing this, Liu Che frowned: "Don't say that you seem to be very big, I will be crowned today, you still have to wait!"

"Yes, yes! Your Highness has grown up before me!" Han Yan said helplessly.I complained in my heart, if it is true about age, I will be almost forty this year.

"Hmph!" Liu Che glanced at Han Yan lightly, opened his arms, and cooperated with the maids to smooth out the wrinkles on his body. Zhou Mingjin, who was on the side, came forward with his shoes in his hands, "Your Highness, put on your shoes!"

The little eunuch at the side immediately took the tray and prostrated himself on the ground, changing the shoes for Liu Che.

"Okay, dress neatly. Let's go, Your Highness!" Han Yan looked up and down, and felt that there was nothing wrong, and said with a smile.

"En!" Liu Che responded with his lips tightly closed.

When he walked out of the palace gate, he took a deep breath, looked at the rising red sun in the sky, and straightened his back.

The crowning ceremony was held in the Gaozu Temple.On the way from the Taiwo Palace to the Gaozu Temple, the guards were heavily guarded.There was a post at five steps, and a post at ten steps. From time to time, there were guards walking through. Before reaching the Gaozu Temple, the solemn and majestic atmosphere was already overwhelming.Han Yan and the two followed Liu Che, and found that Liu Che's back was straightened as he walked forward. After entering the Gaozu Temple, the whole person was already standing upright like a pole, casting a tough shadow under the sunbath of the morning sun.

Han Yan and other courtiers stood upright at the foot of the Gaozu Temple. Looking at Liu Che's back as he walked up the steps step by step, he suddenly had the illusion of being in a trance.The proud boy who was half a head shorter than himself when we first met him, the impulsive, persistent and occasionally complaining boy in my impression, has grown into an adult without knowing it, handsome and burly, with great ambitions in his chest.Like a young leopard that has just grown up, it is showing more and more fierce minions in the face of the rising sun.

Han Yan looked at it, and suddenly had a feeling of "my family has a baby who has just grown up"? !

Just as he was thinking wildly, suddenly there was a chime of bells and chimes in the Gaozu Temple, a team of attendants passed by, and Emperor Jing came from outside the temple in a chariot.The master of ceremonies, Wei Wan, immediately raised his voice and said, "The emperor is here!"

All the people present immediately knelt down to worship the mountain and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Emperor Jing stepped down from the chariot and walked up to the ceremony stage with his hands behind his back.He said calmly, "Get up!"

"Thank you, long live!" Everyone stood up.

The coronation ceremony was presided over by Emperor Jing himself. Today, he was wearing a dark black robe with the sun, moon, stars, auspicious clouds and dragons, and his lower body was a purple train. nodded.

"Let's start!" Emperor Jing waved his sleeves.

The master of ceremonies at the side immediately spread out the imperial decree in his hand, and read aloud: "Ordered by the heavens, the emperor's edict..."

Everyone quietly waited for the master of ceremonies to finish reading, and shouted "Long live, thousand years old for the crown prince" and stood up again.Han Yan glanced curiously at the eunuch presenting the crown prince's costume.Put on the prince's suit made according to the ancient regulations.In the Han Dynasty, the virtues of water, soil, and fire were favored, so black, yellow, and red were favored.The clothes and robes of the prince at the coronation ceremony are all black, with golden and red intersecting patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs, and tumbling auspicious clouds are faintly embroidered on the hem of the clothes, which cannot be seen clearly further down.Zhou Mingjin secretly tugged on Han Yan's clothes, Han Yan came back to his senses, and immediately stood up, watching his nose, nose, mouth, and heart.

Later, Crown Prince Liu Che walked slowly to the ceremony stage holding a wine bottle, spilled the full glass of wine on the ground, and sprinkled it twice again, implying sacrifice to the ancestors, and then toasted the audience, and went to the east step of the ceremony stage to stand .At this time, the deacon came over with the crown (hat with decorations and symbols), and then crowned the prince, and the master of ceremonies sang and presented the crown, the leather bezel, and the crown in turn...

Liu Che was modest and unresponsive, meaning that the guests were invited to inspect again to see if they were eligible for the crown.After three humility, he accepted the crown.Since the crowning ceremony was held earlier than in history, Emperor Jing was still in high spirits on the surface at this time, looking at the prince who had already been crowned and became more majestic.In a better mood, he personally brought the crown to Liu Che, and said loudly, "Liu Che, you have grown up!"

Everyone immediately kowtowed again and continued to shout.After Emperor Jing shouted Pingshen, the guests who came to watch the ceremony could go forward one by one holding wine bottles to toast the prince.Since Emperor Jing was in a good mood, he would drink a glass of wine with the more prominent ministers himself, flattering the courtiers and marquises who came up to congratulate.

Immediately afterwards, in order to show pure benevolence, benevolence and filial piety, the prince will worship the emperor, queen mother, empress and even brothers and sisters successively.Among them, the eldest princess Liu Xing is the most proud. Looking at Gillian who is becoming more and more charming and charming, she finally let go of a heart that has been tense for many years-she has already discussed with Emperor Jing, the queen mother and even the queen. Prince Edward and Gillian held a wedding.

There are those who are happy and those who are unhappy.For example, Liang Wang Liu Wu, his nephew Liu Che added a crown ceremony, marking that he has grown up.With the qualifications to participate in the court proceedings, the qualifications to offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple, the qualifications to command soldiers, the qualifications to marry... and even to inherit the throne logically, he is completely hopeless.Can't help shrugging his head and drinking cups of boring wine.

As for Empress Dowager Dou, her mood is about five or five!The crown prince Liu Che can be regarded as growing up in front of her since he was a child, and he can be regarded as filial and clever, and there is nothing wrong with him except for the occasional blunder and preference for Confucianism.And his mother who is the queen, although very scheming and cunning, has always been submissive in front of him, and now the prince has become the husband of his granddaughter, and the relationship has been further improved.So I feel relieved to hand over the throne to such a person.The only regret is that the old son Liu Wu once promised, it seems that this old woman is going to renege on her promise and become fat...

Surrounded by the crowd, Gillian looked at the increasingly mature and handsome Prince Liu Che on the ceremony stage, bathed in the envious and envious eyes of everyone around her, and her originally aggrieved heart faded a lot.Liu Che is right, they have paid so much for the position of the Crown Princess and even the throne of the Empress. Now that the boat is done and the meal is cooked, why should she give up her bright future because of Liu Che's displeasure? people?

Gillian played with the wine bottle in her hand and sneered in her heart.You are not happy now, what did you do earlier?His gaze swept across Han Yan and Zhou Mingjin, who were also surrounded by many Marquis children, and warmth flashed across their faces.

Glasses of wine were poured down like boiled water, and Han Yan drank so much that she felt like she was a water tank.I couldn't hold on any longer, and waved my hand to beg for forgiveness: "No, no, let me take it easy, drink again and lie down."

Everyone burst into laughter, seeing Han Yan's naive appearance, they still let the prince's red man go.Han Yan put the wine bottle on a desk and stumbled out of the hall.As soon as Pu went out, the breeze blew, and he felt much clearer.Walking slowly to the white jade railing and standing on the handrail, seeing the huge Han Palace also shrouded in joy, he couldn't help but smile.

In the blink of an eye for ten years, it is no longer possible to distinguish between dreams and reality.Gradually getting used to the intrigue and intrigue, Han Yan felt bored for a moment.More than ten years have passed so quickly, but I have always been confined to this square inch of Chang'an City. The outside is so big, when will I be able to see it with my own eyes?

When Gillian saw Han Yan leaving the palace gate, she also walked out with a hot mouth.Holding the wine bottle, he walked slowly to Han Yan, and greeted Han Yan with a smile, "Ah Yan!"

"My Lord Gillian?" Han Yan turned her head in surprise. Gillian was still wearing the bright red dress she had loved for many years, showing off her enthusiasm.It's just that the pupils are much clearer than before. "It's so lively inside, why did Mrs Gillian come out?"

"Suddenly I feel a little bored." Gillian said casually. "By the way, do you know what Cher likes?

"Huh?" Han Yan was a little dazed.

"Didn't you tell me to follow him and give him some self-esteem? Then I must know what he likes and dislikes!" Gillian turned her face away and asked a little uncomfortable.

When Han Yan heard this, she subconsciously twitched her lips.As long as Gillian is willing to change, that's a good thing. What I'm most afraid of is that Gillian is too stubborn and can't let go of her dignity.

"Actually, His Royal Highness is relatively easy to get along with. He has a cheerful personality, is martial, likes new things, and has relatively strong self-esteem. He doesn't like others to refute what he says. You should coax him more and praise him from time to time. If he has something to do That's not right, you tell him directly but softly, as long as it makes sense, he will definitely change it, and he..." Han Yan said frothing.

Gillian listened carefully, trying to remember every word Han Yan said, and secretly swore in her heart: the more you don't like something, the more I will do it, I must make things difficult for you!
